And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Hopefully this will result in an increase in shipping charges for EV's so large as to make it cheaper to fly them across the Atlantic. If the air-freight lines would risk at.
I learned on YouTube that when frying regular old Oscar Mayer Baloney that you should cut 4 ea I inch radial cuts distributed around the edge and it will prevent cupping so the entire surface gets caramelized. The slice spreads out in the pan and you end up with these delicious propeller shaped fried baloney slices. I think I’d rather have a fried baloney sandwich than a fried Lamborghini dipped in salt water or fire suppression foam.
Haven't had one for a very long time (more'n 10 years) but when I did I made 1 cut to the center and that prevented the cupping. Now that I'm think about it I might have to grab some soon. I've dome em on the grill too.
Walmart has a good baloney in thier deli. I get it cut at -IIRC-5. Whatever the number is, it gets you about 5-6 slices to the pound depending on how close you are to the end. Makes a primo FBS.
Would the vehicles carry the necessary title? I suppose you could recreate the proper title. Would they then be salvage?
Hazmat teams with gear, fighting LI fires at sea. Support vessels, including ocean going tug. Sounds expensive. Tens of millions expensive. Salvage the ship's engines would pay for the mission. Ship operators can bid on ship's systems. Sell the ship to the scrappers. Multiple governments take their cuts.
You now have xx number of brand new expensive cars with salvage titles. Car mfgs sue you to keep their brands from being sullied. Clean water shitheads sue for environmental damge, release of toxic/poisonous gas and materials. You get to experience the luxury of a 6x10 with Bubba as a roommate. He'll introduce you to his buddies. You have a purty mouth so you just know you'll be a hit at the party.
A possible way around all that; you declare war on an island nation. You ram your ship into an unoccupied outlying island. You covertly pay off the island government with the promise of turning the ship into a casino is tropical paradise. You now have Porsche City on Bentley island.
Update: It is being said that the ship had EV's, and the lithium batteries are the cause of the fire.
ReplyDeleteSchadenfreude!

There are also Bentleys and Lamborghinis on board according to German news.
ReplyDeleteThe cook burned the fried baloney sandwiches again.

5's are baloney STEAKS! And there's nothing wrong with that.
DeleteI can honestly say I have never had a FBS in my 60 years on earth. Now, Mortadella. That's different.

DeleteRick's got it all worked out....and too much time on his hands. lol
DeleteIt carried Lambo's the month prior, but there are Bentleys on board, Audis,VW & Porsche....the internet was a mistake.
ReplyDelete"A salvage team from SMIT is en route to the retrieve the abandoned M/V Felicity Ace, which continues to burn near the Azores."

But ... there's a car carrier on the seafloor with, among other vehicles, four Porsche 911 GT2 RS's aboard:

Salvage plans, anyone?
Lithium batteries.
