I served in the Navy, a plankowner aboard the USS BOSTON (SSN-703) Decommissioned in 1999 and scrapped in 2002. Now I find myself in the unique cradle-to-grave position of helping to care for its remains at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park. All that really remain are the sail and rudder shipped here in 2003 along with a few cleats. I feel like I'm caring for a vessel that met a premature and untimely demise. Now I care for her remains.
...Sort of.

Only the Chinese Could get away with this!
Leave it to the Chinese to remove the summit of Mount Everest and take it around the world as a touring exhibit!
See: The Tour of Mount Everest story here. You know, if some American tried that, the Chinese government would be up-in-arms about it!!
Hey Bruce did you see this?
