Hey, teh ninjas, a little kick-start on your behalf in that liberation of the territories in South America would be great. If you can't act as the anarchists/whatevers, that's fine. I'll find someone else to do it.

Oh, and Thje APrthians, a reply in that training thread would be great. Unless you want me to go ahead with it a bit more.

The last few posts go into detail about it. Basically, NeoSuun Zhonghua is a composite state; mixed economics, fairly liberal personal freedoms with the option for a crackdown, nationalistic propaganda, elitist foreign policy.

Best summed up as: 'Our people are the best and can live how they like as long as they don't criticise the government'.

I like that policy. We have the same one only we do let some limited criticism of the government (no public demonstrations though). But as far as liberal policies (hehehe non-existent).

Well, when I went it was either rainy or cold...I've long held that Florida, though better than Canada, isn't all that it's cracked up to be since the winter can be so uneven. I'd rather be in Mexico, to tell you the truth.

As for my grandmother's house: we were okay actually. We lost a few shingles only. Still, seeing the debris was awe-inspiring, and made me thankful that our house survived. I do feel bad for Punta Gorda and Capitva, though: they lost everything. Say, did Charley hit Tampa at all?

I personally can't stand either group. I have both conservative and liberal views on several ideas, but depending on which side of the fence you are on you get slapped with a "label" for what you believe in. I consider myself an indepedent because I look at the issues and the person running before I vote for them. I also won't vote for a person that doesn't have an opponent, it erks me.

As far as liberals screwing things up, here is Texas the Republican led Legislature is tattooing the school funding system right now. We will soon have the highest sales taxes in the nation, and all the little sneaky things like car inspection, fees and registrations are all set to go up. The funny thing about it is they are claiming to dump 3 billion dollars into the school systems in Texas when in fact they are gutting some school programs to generate this money. The stance they have taken on financing the schools in Texas is appaulling. This is all very depressing since the proposed cuts are coming in the field I teach in. Which means I will be forced to teach a core subject class or seek employment doing something else. One other tidbit, I have a BS and have 7 yrs experience teaching and make 1/3rd the money I should with the degree I have. Texas treats teachers like red-headed stepchildren. So to say the least they are not on my Christmas Card list.

Man, that'll mean that the Ohian legislators won't be just metaphorically go at each other's throats, they'll literally go after each other's throats. Although, in Jerry Springer's defence, I do think he's a smart guy- he just puts on a rather raunchy show. It may be a stretch, but I could see him as Governor (besides, if I remember correctly, he was Mayor of Cinncinatti once).

Furthermore, looked what happened to Arnold...he's doing pretty well as Governor of California. So don't write off Mr. Springer just yet.

(Though I do wonder what's going on down there...all these celebrities wanting to become Governor...has the US gone to the dogs ;) )

Where ya from? I'm from Auburn, right outside of Worcester.

It's freezing there right now, but thank goodness I'm in Panama. I just got back inside from reading my book in the sun. Man, was it hot. Unfortunatly, I had to come back in because it looks like a storms a'brewin.Yarrrr.

I'm from Bedford, next to Lexington (ugh, only cambridge is worse), and Hanscom AFB, one of the few sane places in the state. The base is cool, even though I can't get on it, we still see all the cool planes, and theres a couple of patriot missiles around.

Layarteb, 2 things-
1) you better have left the base alone, the RL closure risk is bad enough
2)whats the rule for inactive rpers in the middle of an invasion? Hogsweat hasnt posted on the Bahrain thread for 12 days, is it still occuring? He has been NS active, up to 2 hours before me writing this. Theres not much I can do, he sent in an air attack and hasnt been back

EDIT- My only problem with NY is a Senator Clinton, and the Yankees, aside from that it isnt bad

Elephantum: What base are you talking about? And the policy on people dropping off in the middle of an invasion is a sort of odd thing. If they blatantly and actively ignore a legitimate RP then it's a no-no. If they drop off because of personal difficulty and so on and so fourth then it's okay. A good way to judge these things is that if they post in other RPs and they log on consistently and they still refuse to post then it's definitely no good. If they just don't log on then it's so-so because that'll back up their personal reasons. It's a case-by-case basis to be honest. And yes Clinton must perish! Boston must perish too!

Pushka: RP added. Only part of Africa. You mean Camaroon? Afghanistan though, Nuevo Rica was put on temp hold while TLS sorted his out now he's up for claiming what he wants on that. The two of you, I suggest chat with each other on Afghanistan but he's next in line, so to speak. I had to do that because TLS had some odd claiming going on there.

The Knight Templars: Excellent. I must thank you for your incredible understanding throughout E2. You have been on both the short end of some of my screw-ups and on the better end of others. Unfortunately this one you are on the short end but hopefully my next screw-up (if I make on) will have you on the other end. Thank you very much and E.Iraq is put on your list.

RomeW: Peace talks added. Yes that NS Earth is basically a giant summary of what everyone has in every Earth and in general NS. It isn't an RP community per say, just a general listing that should get a STICKY.

Elephantum: It's up to you guys to be honest, I'm claiming ignorance on that one ;). Use your judgement(s).

Hogsweat: Yes you do. Staying? Schweet. :: puts plan for Icelandic Domination away ::

Nuevo Rica: Afghanistan, in so far as TLS is concerned, is ready. He took what he wanted and as you can see from the map there is plenty left. And don't worry about land area I found something with the square km/mi of each province. Boy did TLS luck out on that ONE!

Hey Layarteb, about that invasion of Norway thread. I think you can just cancel it. Some minor complications occured, so we're going to start a new one. And I think that Kriegorgrad is going to stay here on Earth II. He's atleast gonna RP some here. A new post will be coming tommorrow or something like that..

I just posted in there. If you gentlemen wish to go to a new thread just let me know and I'll replace the threads but overall I think all of you handled yourselves well except for a few outbursts but hey, we're all human right?

Yeah we'll post the new thread here when it gets posted.

Oh, and I sure as heck hope so (didn't want to use "hell" as to not attract the Mod.s)!

EDIT: Post 2993! WEEEEEEEE!

It's okay "hell" won't attract mods. But using a whole lot of drill sergeant words may attract them. I've spoken to them about the length of this single post and they said that it's alright and won't be locked because it's not spam or some un-intelligent, meaningless post. So if we go to 5,000 posts and I hope we do, we'll still exist. And if they do lock it they will let me know so that I can start another thread. They're cool about it.

Nice to know. So dear inhabitants of Earth (II), what's your plans for easter?

Mine are as follows:

1) Have a heck of a lot of tests the week before Easter, and sit at home and worry about the results thruout Easter.
2) Get visited by my brother and oldest nephew who lives on the other side of the country.
3) Get drunk on C2H6OH sometime during the Easter along with my friends (provided I can get some C2H6OH).
4) Sleep!

Ah, my home town. Here's a tip, don't go to the following places:

Allapadah (sp) (The ghetto!)
Overtown (Another ghetto!)
South Beach (Full of gays, no I won't say homosexual the word's too long)
Coral Gables (Damn rich people)

That's all I could think of. Have fun!

But you don't understand... the Florida ghetto's rough >.>

The MPD is as corrupt as the LAPD was in the '80s/is.

Ever hear the 41 shots joke? Yeah that's NY. Though I'm not against it, the POS got what he deserved. Trust me though if you can make it through a NY ghetto (and you are white) then you can get through just about anywhere (save LA but then again nobody gets through LA unless they have an army).
