Survivalism: (Very) Old School

" A Dutchman has built a replica of Noah's Ark to biblical proportions, following a dream his homeland would be flooded."

Actually, video states it's only a fifth of the size of the "original", but it's still a whopper:

Interesting.

Seeing the kids (baby goats) was worth clicking on the video. I've never owned goats but for reasons I can't quite explain, seeing baby goats always improves my mood. There is something funny, in an almost-not-quite-real manner, about the way they look.

thats awsome i would love to just get up and build something cool like a house boat or something I bet id have to get special licenses , insurance, and permits etc. before I could even attempt it though. But that is still awsome .

Naw, you wouldn't be able to get permits, they would put you on DHS terror watch list.

I looked again and I think you are right. Several places around where I live have goats so I've seen baby goats (kids.) Not all that many sheep around here so I don't think I've ever seen a lamb in person aside from, maybe, a petting zoo. I should have paid more attention to the adults the first time around. They still improved my mood, though.

Sheep have purtier eyes than goats, jest sayin....

I'd give building the boat a shot, but Noah was a better man than me if he brought a breeding pair of mosquitoes onto it.

Cool premise, I hope he gets millions of visitors.

I wouldn't be surprised if the insects snuck on when nobody was looking.

That's pretty neat!
