FOFC Nuclear Missile Silo?

We could be getting close to taking over the world by now...

Bottom Line - Listing of the Week: Own your own missile silo

Yes!!

Seriously - if we want a place to survive the forthcoming zombie apocalypse, or other disasters, this is probably the best bet.

I'm in but I recommend that each floor of the silo has its own signature drink:

1'st floor: Captain and Coke
2'nd floor: Margaritas
3'rd floor: Craft beer
4'th floor: Pina Coladas (mainly for the women Pumpy is bringing over)
etc.

If there's a bunch of us and we do it as an LLC...we could get a mortgage probably. And I think it could be a B&B/rental property fairly easily, and it has that unique draw.

Not hot. I personally have met at least 200 nuclear missile silos that are better looking.

Pretty expensive silo there. They've sold a lot of missile silos here in Missouri. Quite a few homes in silos in this part of the U.S.

Given the fact that TK is a rocket scientist and I work as an Engineer in the Nuclear industry...this could be our first step toward world domination...

Or we could turn it into some elaborate drinking place...

Your choice.

Why does it have to be one OR the other?

I bet we could put up the same kind of thing with a lot less money if we agree on a town and we all show up with shovels.

They'll be back in like an hour. They watched me bowl for a while, said they had to go downstairs for a bit, and grabbed some Kleenex on the way out. Not sure what that's about.

Between this and our aircraft carrier, we probably would have more of a military than a lot of small countries

Don't forget the nuclear sub too, and I think there was a second sub and castle. We could be our own country by now with enough military might to take over some of the smaller countries.

Soon..... Global Domination!!!!!

Someone needs to compile a list of all of the threads where we've talked about buying something wacky

In fact, best I can do in chronological order in a couple of minutes:

* Aircraft Carrier: Aircraft Carrier for sale! - Front Office Football Central
* Jet: Need a jet for that aircraft carrier? - Front Office Football Central
* Missile Launcher: Need a jet for that aircraft carrier? - Front Office Football Central
*Island: Want to buy an island in the pacific? - Front Office Football Central
*Missile Silo: Any1 have an extra 1.5 mil? - Front Office Football Central
*Another Aircraft Carrier: Another aircraft carrier for sale - Front Office Football Central
*Another Missile Silo: FOFC Nuclear Missile Silo? - Front Office Football Central

Looks like we need some more variety. So far we have an island with 2 docked aircraft carriers- one with a jet and another with a crazy guy with a missile launcher. For land forces, we have two missile silos.

SI

We should have someone do a 3D rendering of our island with everything else on the list.

This is bullshit!

Quote:
Which means if you submit the highest bid, you won't be taking the 118-foot-long, 499-ton Sea Shadow for a three-hour tour with Gilligan and the Skipper.

"The ex-Sea Shadow shall be disposed of by completely dismantling and scrapping within the U.S.A. Dismantling is defined as reducing the property such as it has no value except for its basic material content," read the conditions on the GSA auction site.

That seems to have dampened the interest of evil madmen bent on world domination.
