In the Google Navy
theodp writes "Having already assembled a private Air Force, Google's top execs now seem to be turning their attention to building a personal Navy. At last count, CEO Eric Schmidt's wife had assembled a stable of three classic racing boats — the Swan 80 Selene, the 46-foot W-class Equus and the Alerion Mischief. Perhaps not to be outdone, the press is reporting that Google founder Larry Page just snapped up a $45 million superyacht called Senses from New Zealand businessman Sir Douglas Myers, who referred to the ostentatious-yet-awesome yacht as his 'adventure boat.' As Google likes to say, 'just the latest steps in Google's commitment to a clean and green energy future.' So, do Google execs eat their own carbon footprint calculator dogfood?" All I know is if Larry wants to go fishing, I'll bring bait — or he can come here and fish on Zen's pontoon boat. It only leaked once, the engine usually starts right up, and while there's no helipad, I'd love to watch someone try.
you, apparently, ARE mad. and i dont even know why.
not to mention that someone not aspiring to buy yachts or millionaire sports cars would be the person who would have acceptable qualities, than the one who would seek to equate its own ego with those external objects to supplement it, or toy with them.

I hate to post this on slashdot... -5 TROLL here I come... but it's true.
"A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellowman, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money" -- G. Gordon Liddy
Just like Biden said... everyone should have a 2500sq ft or less house... as soon as Al Gore, and Biden sell their mansions and move to a 2500sq ft house, I might listen to them.
Mike @ The Geek Pub. Let's Make Stuff!
And all Repubicans (I meant it that way) are ignorantm anti-Americans who cannot accept alternative views, own guns, and are an inch away from their own gun-toting rampage. It's all true! BTW, most will also post as AC because they can't even trust their own fellow, gun-toting, douchebag, red tie buddies. Ask the guy who got his face shot off by Dick Cheney.
Really? Who pushes "hate speech" codes and "hate crimes" laws?
Ask Juan Williams what the political leanings of the hacks who fired him from NPR for daring to state that seeing an obvious Muslim on the same plane makes him nervous.
Find a gay conservative. Ask him if it's easier being gay at conservative functions, or being conservative at gay functions.
"Progressives" are immensely less tolerant of alternate viewpoints than "conservatives" are.
More bullshit from an A. COWARD. Sit down, shut up, and read a fucking book, you turd. I'm a middle of the road, ex-military, type. So, be careful with your claims of "hate speech", son.
This is blue site, for science, technology and making the USA a place for progress. Not a site for your fucked up views on how you need more automatic weapons to save yourself from the "dangerous liberals" who threaten your ignorant view of the world. The mouse and computer you're using to spin your pro-Palin agenda were designed and coded by wacky, left-wing, nerds. Not gun-loving, tobacco chewing, hillbillies. Like I said; read a book, red-tie douche. I'm not very liberal myself, but I served in this country's military so they, and you can spout off using the freedom of speech that now causes real violence when mixed with guns and ignorant thoughts and pictures of public servants with overlaid gun-site graphics. Also, use another login. AC is low-brow, like your forehead. You have a Score of 0. FAIL!!1!
If you're not pro-science, pro-embryonic stem cell, pro-choice, or anti-automatic weapons consider yourself not an American. Period.
This is the NSA, we're gonna geet U h@x0r5! Also, what is a h@x0r5?
It's quite true that liberals are pretty poor on the second amendment.
This gun toting liberal disagrees. Liberal enough to say that there is no liberal party here just conservatives and ultra conservative fascists. What legitimate viewpoints would you like to bring up? Hatred of homosexuals, maybe fear of empowered women, or how about your feelings on those uppity minorities?
That was not fair, you probably have a great plan to stop taxing anyone who makes more money than you.
