THE MISSING LINK
Jet for sale online -- some assembly required

Time's running out. If you want your very own used Navy F/A-18A Hornet jet fighter, and you have some extra space in your garage (not to mention your checking account), get on over to eBay. A broker in Washington state has listed the jet, which used to belong to the Blue Angels, on the auction site. It costs a mere million, but if you want it assembled and ready to fly, that'll add another $8 million to the price. This puppy can fly 1,400 mph and climb nearly six miles in a minute -- much more impressive than a Jetta. Yes, this deal appears to be legal. (The Associated Press)
