gapingvoid: "cartoons drawn on the back of business cards": "the more geeked-out your blog, the more frickin' yachts you will sell."

"the more geeked-out your blog, the more frickin' yachts you will sell."

[NB: I'm in Yacht Mode today.]

Hugh is seemingly shooting to create a 21st century LVMH on steroids, a stable of super-luxury brands with post-ironic vulgarity, or should that be post vulgaric irony as a masthead... If you have to ask - you're not invited. Beyond the blog A-list and into the world of the super-rich. Hughtrain as luxury juggernaut.

Good luck with this new venture. How many have you sold so far Hugh? I'd have a couple myself but blue is so not my colour

LVMH for the noughties

Not a bad idea, James. Go for it, Hughtrain as LVMH-beater!

Ok, I'll take two of those M80 Stiletto's. Actually, I probably couldn't afford the antenna on the darn thing. The M80 looks like a fun Seal Team toy.

See http://www.mshipco.com/?page_id=11 for a better idea of how big that monster is.

Let's go for a cruise on one... Now, who's paying for gas?
