Mark, that is too cool!

I wonder if he has a bigger one for my 2 Fast And 2 Furious SUV!?

Phil,

That would be way cool! 25 GPM of LOX though would require a big SUV. Perhaps an extermal fuel tank to hold enough to reach mach 2? That'd leave those bastards in their Masarattis in the dust.

Completely non-film related.

Here is another wonderful example of an ebay seller who has clearly gone off his meds. Go ahead. Read the entire auction description. Go ahead! Just try! I gave up about a quarter of the way through it, but it certainly made my evening.

Pretty creative!... especially the payment instructions, assuming he actually gets nearly 1/2 million for it!

Please stuff $100 dollar bills in pillow case and have them sent round to my bed-sit.

I just checked his feedback expecting to see a car wreck of negative feedback, but to my surprise, he has 95.7% positive feedback on over 100 auctions, most of which are also for rare books and just as strange and rambling as the Shakespeare auction!

Or, how about a F/A-18A Navy Blue Angel Hornet, from the same seller:

If you were dumb enough to buy it, how closely would the government watch you for the rest of your life?

Even if you just wanted it for a collection or whatever...

According to the listing, it has an "N-number". That means it's registered in the United States. So, the government already knows it's here and, presumably, they've already checked it out to ensure that it's "Street Legal".

Not to say that the government wouldn't check up on you a little bit more often but figure it this way: If you have enough disposable cash to buy something like this the government probably already knows about you. [uhoh]

Yes it is registered and assigned a vin number by the government. They had the guy who is handeling the auction for the seller on CNN via phone the other day. They are looking for a collector or a museum to purchase the plane. They will also be doing extensive background checks on the purchaser before releasing the plane. They also said that they were not accepting out of country purchasers.

Actually, this is not junk:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2597594243

It's a Carlos Gardel CD, & would make an excellent gift for Robert A. Harris or John Pytlak! It is not widely known, but Messrs. Harris & Pytlak have quite extensive knowledge in matters related to Carlos Gardel, & Argentinean Tango music.
