Titan Missile Complex Up for Sale
ckeck writes "Take a look at this, some guy in Washington State is auctioning off a 'Titan Missile Complex' on eBay. I don't know if this is a fake auction or not, but I already talked to the gentleman running the auction on the phone and plan to take a visit to the complex! This would be an awesome place to live! Check it out here." Looks like he bought it in 1999.
Checklist:
;)
1. Move to Missile Complex
2. Change name to Dr. Evil
3. Hold the world hostage
4. Profit
See, I didn't use a ??? part, they are so lame
This is the sig that says NI (again)
Honey, we're moving to Washington!!!
Imagine mapping this (your HOUSE) for a Quake / Unreal map!!

Did anyone look at the auctions he's had before?
Jack Hammer of some sort... $360

Missile Complex?
This wouldn't be in Central Montana by any chance? I hear Dr. Zefram Cochrane's been looking to buy one in that area.
I wonder, whether our Russian militaries can buy the complex to keep missiles closer to their targets? :)
You can buy anything on E-Bay
1. No shipping. Local pickup only. 2. To avoid stiff fees, PayPal will not be accepted. 3. Checks will be given ten days to clear. 4. Non-paying bidders without ABM defenses will be given NEGATIVE FEEDBACK.
I'm surprised that Dick Cheney hasn't bought one of these. It probably cost at least that much to build his bunker at the Naval Observatory...
5. Your basement will be the biggest in town 4. You could have your own nuclear reactor 3. You can hide from militant feminists 2. The best place to be when millennium bug II (somewhere around 2047 I guess) comes around. 1. You can dodge the special skills draft
Nothing to see here
Got my Titan Missile Complex but the tall backed leather chair did not swivel and the white cat was already dead when i got there! Avoid!!!!!!
Mother, do you think they'll like this sig?
So it doesn't matter if you own the place or if you are a visitor or what, you are on cameras 24/7, just in case you tried something illegal.
So if a couple moves in, what does that mean, no anal sex?
Just think of all the Chinese/Russian missiles still pointed at your bedroom.
Yeah those gulf-war drugs will ware off any time now.
We could recreate scene's from Half-Life within the silo complex. I want to be Gordon!
I can see it know...(cheesy guy looking up as the camera blurs/wave effect)
"Nothing you need to worry about, Gordon. Go ahead."
"I have just been informed that the sample is ready, Gordon. It should be coming up to you any moment now. Look to the delivery system for your specimen."
"Standard insertion for a nonstandard specimen. Go ahead, Gordon. Slot the carrier into the analysis port."
"Gordon! Get away from the beams!"
Oh the fun we could have....:-)
No you weren't dreaming. That silo was in my home state of Kansas and they bought it for some ungodly cheap sum (like 40-80k or something). The government was selling them off.
They also flooded some of them and you can book dive trips to go scuba diving in them.
If Bush wins or steals the election again, this guy could have gotten SO much more money.
There were several Nike missile bases in MD one of which I did some exploration in. Now a developer has build and entire subdivision over it and I doubt that the new home-owners know about what lies beneath their gated community.
If you are going to use one of these for a house it is very expensive to remove the lead paint and asbestos insulation on any pipes/walls... but in the 50's men ate lead and smoked asbestos....
Serve your "no-knock" warrant now!
