Secondhand shuttle

According to USA Today, United Space Alliance, the Boeing/Lockheed Martin consortium that operates the Space Shuttle for NASA, wants to buy two of the retiring spacecraft to use commercially.

Great. Now I'm in a bidding war and I still haven't finished making the payments on the orbital death ray yet.

That "commercial purposes" might be to saw it into a million pieces set in lucite for use as paperweights.

I don't see how it could fly again.
