Somali Pirates Seize Supertanker Loaded with Crude Oil

From the "how fucking cool is this" department:

Somali pirates hijacked a supertanker hundreds of miles off the Horn of Africa, seizing the Saudi-owned ship loaded with crude and its 25-member crew, the U.S. Navy said Monday.

It was the largest ship pirates have seized, and the farthest out to sea they have successfully struck.

I don't know about you, but being a Somali pirate hijacking supertankers for ransom seems like a pretty exciting and profitable life. It makes wonder what I've been doing with my 29 years on this earth.
