November 2007, the Pearl Forrester, among others, begins a short but VERY successful space tourism service, earning enough money from celebrities like The Donald, etc. to be very comfortable.
Major "ports" for space tourism before the crackdowns after THAT con included: Boston, New Orleans, Paris [before the Professor's incident], Kyoto, Montreal, Toronto, Sydney, Canberra, Moscow, and the capital of South Africa, whose name eludes me right now.
February 14, 2008. Horatio Kane of the Miami-Dade PD's CSI team tracks down {insert generic Colombian drug lord name, this may be one of the lead Zwilniks} to his yacht, the Pinnafarina, in drydock. Exciting gun battles take place within, and the druglord's Ferrari crashes through the vehicle bay doors, leading to a car chase, exploding Italian coachwork near the airport, and Major arrest number 65 or so for Horatio.
June 1, 2008. Trials are over, and the Pinnafarina goes to Goverment auction. Winning bid registered to Joseph Corcoran of Londonderry, NH.
''We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat
them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''
