Almost correct. You folks have missed the obvious place. Guantanamo Bay!

Try New Orleans.

Yeah, plant them in a tent next to a large crop of alligators and tell them it's their new digs.

There's plenty of space available in Frankfurt, now that Rhein Main AB has been closed.

Why not in Paris? Or in one of those "dreamland" Scandinavian countries? Ask them to pick up similar tab too (about 23% of the budget).

They should find real cheap rent in Pakistan, they should bring their own tents though.

"We're looking at boats, barges, islands, tents."


Yeah, right. "Tents" is UN code for Ritz Carlton.

Kofi-

DREAM BIG .....

Relocate to the International Space Station. NASA could use some of the cash Kick-backs AND you could re-name yourself-

"Kofi- Ruler Of The Universe ...Enemy of Infidels, Friend of Anti-Semite's Galaxy wide"!

.....(or any other cheesy name you like to go by) .....

Bill, Bill - I just don't know what to say. You know full well that many UN Persons ARE grubs - would you want one of tehm eaten by mistake?

Oops, my mistake; it seems some UN persons actually were eaten while on duty.

Must have been before they were busy raping kiddies who thought the nice UN Person was going to give them food we "ugly Americans" paid for.

Actually, no. The commercial airport is planning to expand into that space. There is, however, space in Bonn which the federal government vacated when it moved back to Berlin.

Turn off the heat, water and food. Throw in some dysentary and plague. Hang Kofi. That'll make the third world dictators feel right at home.

Seems to me that, if the UN doesn't soon drop the idea of taking over the internet, hackers will make the whole question moot by vaporizing the UN and everything associated with it.
