As Nuclear Reactors Age, the Money To Close Them Lags

Hell yeah! Nuclear power plants going for cheap. I'll take one! Surplus ICBM silos are interesting, but have far too many drawbacks. But nuclear power plants? Those things are bigger than a city block, above ground, extremely stable, etc. I'd love to buy one.

For starters, I think I'd start cutting up one of the cooling towers, until it looked like a giant medieval castle, just smooth and round instead of 4 stone walls. Re-enactments of Monty Python's & the Holy Grail are, of course, obligatory.

After that, I'd have to buy as much flesh-tone paint as I can afford. It would take some time, but just think of it... https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG3X0cd_9_GDg8PkSlAGWZFBrVNV7aeRh4dx8Flwc6kn46nTHlPbqpTRPjBAOIYt3a70tqheXINRtttTupJClz2tY-dYoqoRZey56Lx5Wp9pQBFVV4JRuUXLmuvQ089TKE5QibAXazmzc/s1600/san-onofre_songs.jpg [slashdot.org]">Giant nuclear boobies!

As an added bonus, nuclear power plants always need ample water, so you're guaranteed to get a private lake, river, or beachfront property, no matter which one you buy. They're also universally pretty close to mega population centers, so, while it's likely a nice quiet location, you won't be too far from a major city, unlike many of those silos.
