your fortnightly boat.

i didn't see this ship in new jersey (i wish!), i just got a fwd from my dad about it. i have no way of verifying the information that was attached (without a minimal amount of internet research), but i'll sum up anyway.

according to the email, this is one of three giant freight ships contracted by walmart to be built by maersk of denmark (remember?). each ship will travel exclusively from china to the US, containing products made in china to be sold in walmarts across america. they then return to china empty, because china doesn't want any of our fine american goods to sell to their poor people.

isn't that interesting?!

thx dad!
