So, we were driving to see my wife's family for Gram's birthday and as we come over a hill in a fairly small town, I am astonished to see a crashed Union class dropship that someone has wisely built a building and arts center around. LOL!

While the pic is not great, it gives you the idea. It is a real building and the "Union" is fairly large. The base even looks like there might be engines under there.

My wife explained that the "Union" is part of the art center and serves as a planetarium.

Cool!

Love the picture... that's pretty cool. Traveled back in time and, when the government discovered its true purpose, they gutted it for technology, cleaned it up, and hollowed all but the structure out to turn it into a planetarium. Love it.

Yeah, but you know what the means, right? The engines, control components and surfaces, and weapons, are still out there somewhere... right? Road trip?

Yeah, so we have to find the 'Mechs and the components, then use the 'Mechs to protect us while we restore the ship... gotcha.

[WMC Gomez]

For what Dickson paid for that thing... it could have been 10 dropships. Looks like the community education center in Dickson, TN.

We have Casus Belli for a punitive war because of all the ***** celebrities, crap singers and unfunny comedians that Canada has sent at us over the years; Avril Lavigne, Justin Bieber, Nickleback, Mike Myers, et al.

But the real reason is a war for mable syrup.
