K-Town's full of ship!

Yet another reason why I love Koreatown...

 

It's already home to the greatest KFC in the city (world?), a postmodernist behemoth of a building complete with a lifesize replica of Mr. Sanders inside for all your MySpace profile pic needs. It's also home to BCD Tofu House, one of the most reliable post-drinkin' grub spots in this city.

But a couple weeks ago, while driving south on Western just north of 6th Street, I spotted a full-size ship smack dab in the middle of K-Town. Waaaaaa? And the name emblazoned on the side of the ship: CafeJack.net.

After passing it again tonight, I decided to look the joint up on something called "the internet." Turns out there's no real site for CafeJack.net, just a stand-in site that, to its credit, does mention a "Cafe Jack in Ktwon":

 

 

 

The site also features a pop-up window touting free screensavers, if you're in the market for sexy babes and/or dolphin pics (and who isn't?):

 

 

 

 

So:

Why is there a ship in K-Town?

Why does it have '.net' in its name if there's no Web site?

Who's my real father?

 

Stay tuned, Metromixers! I hope to have at least two of these questions answered by next week...
