It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

Nah, too obviously ironic. If you want a more subtle name along those lines, something like Fajita would work better. Plus I like the name Fajita regardless of its ironic value.

Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

The next question came from a surly make-uped goth loser in the back rows.

"For King Paul," he said and Paul nodded at him. "Why do so many people want you dead?"

And so I concluded the Miss Jia rescue in the most over the top way I could imagine. And you got your throat ripped out with bare hands. Razz

Would the Emperor be kind enough to come visit the Shadow Empire after he is done with PeZookia? I believe that the two Emperors have much to discuss and we are also part of that Slavic something thing which i forgot how it's called. :?

And Mangs I need someone to volunteer for my Evil Overlord plot. I don't want to use Zablania. OTOH would anyone mind if I use use Syndromia?

PeZook wrote:BTW, Zor, how much payload can the Titan deliver to orbit, what is the turnaround time and launch cost? Is it a single-stage to orbit winged booster, or does it require additional strap-on motors?
The TITAN requires a drop tank, but no auxillery boosters and is able to reach low orbit. Total Launch cost is $5 million with a maximum Payload of 15 tonnes. RAR has plans to build a passenger varient capable of seeting fifty persons and have a nice little romp through space at $200,000 a seat.

What the Fuck?

$5 million launch cost for 15,000 tons to orbit? I'd believe $5 million for 15k pounds. You have far too little aerospace experience to build a large reusable launch vehicle.

I simply do not have the time to keep up with my country anymore, and, frankly, I no longer have the inclination to do so.

If any FUN member would like to take control of the Republic of N'ton, they are welcome to do so. My budget is still posted for the last few game years, so you can see the current money distribution and my last inventory (check the nation reference thread for the link).

Sorry for the typo, has been rectified.

And besides, Zoria does has a very large scale and up to date areospace industry.

The first squad was wiped out. The second squad thought to use dino-urine to scare off the other dinos...

their mistake of course was the fact that they used urine belonging to a female raptor who was in heat....

I swear this has some humour value, besides the thought of a pepi le pew raptor chasing after seven BR Rangers....

You know, I'd swear I've seen a quote very similar to that. But I can't figure out where... :?

Well, I guess I should get around to posting something.

No, that's not it... Hm...

Anyway, we have Shroom and Heraclius in PeZookia, and Arik is due to show up soon and will probably stick around as long as Miss Jia is being checked out, probably at least overnight.

And now President Shinra is going to come over. The PeZookia security agencies are definately going to be earning their pay this week. :D

I guess this is turning into a sort of an informal summit ;)

EDIT: And here we go. The FUN will send a ship to circumnavigate the globe! I hope the name's allright, though people on Nova Terra will be wondering: who the hell was this guy? :P

BTW, who do we chose to captain the "Magellan"?

Hey Figolfin, how about you write another difficult quesiton for one of us? :D

I'd say we should limit the Q&A to two questions per poster, so that the entire thing doesn't take too much time. I already shot my two, Shroom shot one, you didn't do any, so go ahead :)
