Must Have Toy for Star Trek Fans!

Here in Japan, the US Navy has a base in Yokosuka. There is also a dry docks there for repairing and maintaining ships.

Not only that, Videosift, has found us a video of an underwater version of the USS Enterprise that the Navy boys have made at the dry docks....
Cool!

Watch the video:



Yes, this is cool. But this is also total and complete waste of taxpayers dollars and I wish they'd close that base down and send the boys back home to their families where they belong... But, if they are going to be here, I guess playing in the swimming pool with toys is better than harassing the locals or getting into trouble.

Go here to see a bunch of the other toys that the Yokosuka Dry Docks have made: http://www.youtube.com/user/YDDock

Perhaps the USA doesn't make anything anymore that anyone would want to buy (except weapons)... So maybe these guys in the Navy can learn a useful trade and, instead of creating misery with war, they can create happiness with toys someday.

    This is pretty cool.

    Maybe someone might seriously consider filming space movies using this as an idea...

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
