Feb 24 2009FREE: Navy Giving Away Stealth Ship & Dock
And I want them!
One is called Sea Shadow. It's big, black and looks like a cross between a Stealth fighter and a Batmobile. It was made to escape detection on the open sea. The other is known as the Hughes (as in Howard Hughes) Mining Barge. It looks like a floating field house, with an arching roof and a door that is 76 feet wide and 72 feet high. Sea Shadow berths inside the barge, which keeps it safely hidden from spy satellites.
The barge, by the way, is the only fully submersible dry dock ever built, making it very handy -- as it was 35 years ago -- for trying to raise a sunken nuclear-armed Soviet submarine.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking? A floating safe-haven from the robots! So this is what we're gonna do: pack that vessel chock-full of grade-A seamen and head out on the open ocean. Why, you ask? Because the majority of robots are land-based (we'll still have to watch out for these guys though). Now who's with me? C'mon -- we'll bang mermaids! Heads up though: stay away from Poseidon's daughter. Dude caught me messing around with her in highschool and tried to suck me down the bathtub drain.
Hit the jump for two more of the giveaways.

I was masturbating today, and I remembered that the Oscars were earlier this week, so in the spirit of hollywood sophistication, I decided to extend my pinky right as I finished, then i said "right O!".....The internet has morphed me into a socially inept recluse and the only physical exercise I get is when I masturbate....someone please help me, I fear with the combination of this type of lifestyle, and the tangent diet (pizza, cup noodles, cookies, in n out burger), I won't live past the age of 30...What should I do? seriously.....

Does it have a submereged area with big ass flamethrowers and lasers or is it basically a big metal catamaran for hiding in?
11. Tennist0 - February 24, 2009 7:30 PM
@10- that is a fantastic question, and its my decision, "should i blow $ on a hunk of shit? or should i blow it on a hunk of shit with WMDs and stuff?".. just kidding, thats not a question, we all know the answer! buy the WMDs and blow up the hunk of shit for fun... then sleep easy that night

Angelina's $278 million yacht with a helicopter, submarine, and pool is better. I still want one though - maybe we could be neighbors.
14. Daisy - February 24, 2009 8:14 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never BAck Down where max was with his grandfather, in between his tomato plants. Grandfather was peeling an orange, and sharing the slices with him, and made fangs out of the orange peel. Max was chasing him around with the bug sprayer, when Max's grandfather had a heart attack. Who knew bug spray was harmful?

My dad was part of the crew that developped the Sea Shadow. I've been on it! Let me tell you, it's even more bitchin in person! That barge is indeed big enough to hold the surviving members of the human race when the robots finally revolt!.... Sadly, it doesn't have any weapons though. So BYOW people!
16. theLordMangus - February 24, 2009 8:24 PM

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max decides for Christmas he and the crew of PT-73 will pay a visit to the Sister Monique and the children dressed up in a Santa Claus outfit and elf outfits. Max would parachute from a plane first and meet the kids and PT-73 would follow a little while after. Max jumps in his Santa outfit but when he lands he finds the island was overtaken by Japanese and was captured. Max as usual cons he's why through the interogation and he claims that a new secret weapon is on it's way, just then PT-73 arrives singing Christmas carols and dressed in elf outfits. The Japanese commander becomes scared fearing that this was some kind new of psychological warfare and he surrenders

ya ya cool boat.
About those mermaids though.. seriously... do you have connections? Because if there is one type of chick I'd love to get it on with..it would HAVE to be a half fish, half chick chick.
So if you know of how I could make that happen.. lemme know.
27. tn11 - February 25, 2009 1:16 AM

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.

@4 WWTDD said it better and funnier, you unoriginal bastard...
39. wazmeister - February 25, 2009 7:50 PM
has this got anything to do with them recently realising that normal subs are pretty damned stealthy?
40. Helicopters - February 26, 2009 1:47 AM
It doesn't have a helipad so it's of no use to us that are extremely rich. Come on, if you are trying to hide from the IRS you need something better than this. The IRS has been known to hire Chuck Norris. He will find you even if you have a Harry Potter's blanket of invisibility or the Klingon's Cloak of invisibility. Chuck Norris doesn't play "hide-and-seek." He plays "hide-and-pray-I-don't-find-you."
