"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Um... Paco Enterprises won't be building the thing, will it? Not that I'm worried about the recycled aluminum pilings, or the... um, building codes or anything, you understand. Just asking.
All hail Pacovia! Long may she float! Paco, will you be the President, King, Emperor, or just Proprietor? If some of us decide to launch our own floatnation, will you allow us to dock for a state visit? Similar to the International Space Station, or hey, the Red Neck Yatch Club (see the video). At least we know, you'll have a stricter stance on immigration than Rick Perry.
Can hardly wait to see the flag, and hear the anthem, and of course, the snappy new official fedora!
Rebecca: I'm taking what you might call a dual approach. Float cities inhabited by conservatives will be designed and built by Bechtel, the famous engineering company. Libs get to reside on platforms built by Paco Enterprises' dynamic new marine construction company, Pre-fab Aquatic Construction Offshore (formerly, Sid's Bathroom Remodeling of Fairfax).
Deb: I intend to be merely a landlord, but a flag is a good idea. Something with dollar signs and krugerands, I think.
Paco, there will still be an official fedora, right? As for an anthem, it's gotta be a song that rouses the citizenry after much imbibing of meade. Well, as much as one can be roused. There should be a official meade too. Oh, the possibilities!
The words ...free from the laws, regulations, and moral codes of any existing place... and petri dish don't exactly inspire confidence. In fact, I am developing a rash just thinking about it.
Hail Freedoina! er...I mean Pacovia!

I'll take two, with minimal code restrictions, AND the oil platform options.

We really need Permanent Autonomous Corporate Oceanias for the PACO corporation's world domination strategy to succeed.
ReplyDeleteIs Kevin Costner involved in this venture, in any way? He has experience living on the high seas.
ReplyDeleteOops, nevermind. He campaigned for Dick Obama, so he's mentally impaired, not fit to live amongst people that think right.

Billionaire, Paco? Hasn't anyone taken you aside and explained that a billionaire isn't the same in the rest of the world as it is in Zimbabwe?
ReplyDeleteAnd then you end as navel geezers.

Just finished reading 20K Leagues Under The Sea (again).
ReplyDeleteUnderwater cities will have less weather problems.
Underwater cities will have less weather problems.
ReplyDeleteOh, kinda like Gunga city.
Only without Jar Jar Binks.
Personally, I'd go for space ships. An interstellar sci-fi libertarian adventure in fedoras would be too cool.
