Yes, a rocket man in Bellevue. No, it wasn’t Elton John.

    Unlike all those commercial/civilian grade air to air rockets. You know for competative ballooning.

        Of course, the whole point of a Doomsday Machine is lost, if you keep it a secret! Why didn’t you tell the world, EH?

    “Gonna fix it up. Pinstripe exterior, a 4-barrel carb. Maybe a Grumman 817 inertial guidance, electronic countermeasures. And when I save a little money, a classic Raytheon X-193 class 2 half-megaton warhead. Then I can show it off at the meetup on weekends.”
