Ideas for use of the JFK

As you know, we are about to obtain the famous battleship The JFK ... well, we're not, really, but if we were, here are a few ideas for uses (germinated at my sister's house after Thanksgiving dinner):

  • A PARKING GARAGE! AND A PARK! AND A HOTEL! AND A SENIOR CENTER!
  • Luxury condos - "a historic residential address"
  • Casino
  • Jetty (south jetty needs serious repair) ... and then we could ...
  • Move houses on PI/Newbury off the dune and onto the JFK, or
  • Use JFK as barrier to mainland when PI washes away
  • Convention center --> invite Repubs in and set JFK adrift (that one came from my mom)
  • A re-education center (mom) .... and for whom? (dad)
  • Airport (then we could use the current airport for the senior center)
  • Evacuation center (military ships are very safe, unless the nuclear meltdown is on the ship; but JFK doesn't have nukes)
  • Amusement park/venue for fireworks
  • Bridge between NBPT and Amesbury and/or Salisbury while Hines Bridge is closed for 2 yrs. (proposed not by a family member, but by Dick Monahan, who was not at my sister's house today) or a permanent link between NBPT and Salisbury. Either of these would block most or all of the egress down the river ...

Best option: donate JFK to myself and Mahatma to use for summer sailing/pleasure boating.
