Philip Duke Riley -- called a 'Brooklyn art boob' by today's New York Post, and a 'Sub Moron' by that paper this weekend -- created a wooden replica of a Revolutionary War 'submarine' called the 'Turtle.' Last Friday he floated it in the East River -- he had no means to 'drive it' on his own. The NY Times said it drifted by condoms and dead rats. His goal: the Queen Elizabeth 2 ship, where he wanted to get a photograph of himself drinking a beer next to it. He was detained by terror-alert authorities and his submarine hauled away. One policeman laughed, 'I don't know what we are going to do with it.'
The FBO does not know if this is actually 'art,' as Riley maintains. But the FBO likes the effort.
ACTION POINT: The FBO will contact authorities about purchasing the submarine...

I think procurring the Turtle is a fine idea. If we ever decide to initiate a preemptive stike on Failed Bands of Hawaii, we'll be very glad to have the Turtle at our disposal.
Or we could sneak it into Texas...
..sneak into Texas... Yes, I hadn't thought of the Trojan Turtle ploy. Good plan.
