Well, dude... we just don't know. But we will soon.
WHAT IF's:
What if I get a grant to build this stupid thing?
What if I get more money back on my tax return than I expect (to dump into this project)?
What if I end up driving through the post-apocalyptic desert world fighting people for fuel? (And more importantly: Where will I find football shoulder pads for armor?)
What if I end up designing some new vehicle armor that ends up getting me contracted to build for the US Army (or, a foreign army)?
What if I blasted political propaganda through the loudspeakers and showed subsequent visuals on the TV screens mounted in the windows and as a result I ended up creating a new political party? (WARNING: YOU DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN.)
What if I build this thing and get harassed by the police more than I already do? (I bet I will!)
What if I go a rampage through the city upon completion of the project? (Or were you already thinking this!??!)
What if you help me build this? (Donations/workers and accepted/appreciated!)
What if I asked you what else a tank could benefit from having? (Suggestions welcome!)
What if someone gave me a shitload of money for a really nice, powerful winch so I could tear down trees and buildings? (You know you want to! ~$800'll do it!)
What if I painted it something ridiculous like: neon pink, purple, yellow and pink polka dots, or like some HELLO KITTY (ies) on all the sides? - next to the gun ports, of course.
What if this tank (which is built on a '95 Jeep Cherokee, which is owned by Chrysler - for those who don't know) design was so awesome that it saved Chrysler or GM liked it so much they bought it out from under them - and I got rich in the process?
What if I traveled around the country in the tank?
What if I traveled around the world in it?
What if I was thrown in prison because they thought I was doing something terrorist-related?
What if I go to sleep now and try to finish this tomorrow?

7 By 7 - They Came from the Sky...
7th Class meeting response:
Yeah, so I got there late (sorry!) and I walked in hear the class discussing Plato's Republic. Which was interesting - but I might have come in just a minute or two too late because I could tell there were two points being made and they were not reiterated - so I was somewhat lost to what the points from the original argument(s) were pertaining.
After we discussed Plato we went on to talk about class projects. Once again, I am disappointed in the creativity of this class - Beth said no one seems enthusiastic about doing their final projects. This is not entirely true - I for one cannot wait to begin mine. I would have already started if it weren't for two factors: weather, and money. Firstly, I can't get any painting done when it's freezing (or close to it outside) - I have a few friends who can attest to this. Secondly, I am waiting for my goddamn tax return for the small amount of capital I'm going to need - which was supposed to already be here by now! Now, this also wouldn't be a big deal - but I'm broke as a joke because of bills and rent - lame. I actually just got off the phone with the friend of mine who's going to be a major source of inspiration and motivation for this project: he just informed me that he has just acquired a light bar, lights and more scrap metal. So, quite the contrary - I can't wait to get this show on the road!
Pictures forthcoming.
