Title: For the Third World Dictator who has everything...
Post by: Coredweller on January 23, 2004, 09:44:42 AM
On your next cruise to Southeast Asia, why not go in style?  You haven\'t really "arrived" as an up-and-coming rogue nation until you own an aircraft carrier.  Consider this bargain on Ebay:

Is there a big aftermarket for these?  I\'d like to see custom racing stripes as well as a functional spoiler so the carrier sticks to the water like glue.

That sure would be cool to buy.  If I donated it to Canada\'s government, it would improve our military by a lot, even if it is old and small.

There are a lot of decommissioned ships in the US Navy that I\'m sure you could buy if you had the money. After WWII, they were scrapping them and using them as target practice by the hundreds. I know up until 10 years ago, the USS New Jersey was still in service, and that was a WWII ship.

God I would love to have one of those things.  Too bad they\'d be a bitch to maintain.

God i didnt even think of that. What a b****.

Think of being on that huge ship with only you and 10 other people. Kinda creepy. BTW, how many people does it take to properly control one of those monsters?
