I broke it

[solarbird]

I think I broke Nationstates. From the People's Republic of Cardboardia at Boxburg national description:

The People's Republic of Cardboardia at Boxburg is a massive, safe nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.1 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs. ... Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare.

Meanwhile:

(I forget Monday and Tuesday. Foo.)
Wednesday's miles: 3.1
Thursday's token: 0.6
Friday's miles: 2.1
Miles out of Hobbiton: 536.8
Miles out of Rivendell: 77
Miles to Lothlórien: 389.4

Yeah, I'm late with a new fundamentalist politics post; I've been busy - an out-of-town friend was in town, we went out for tasty, tasty sushi last night - and now I have a Norwescon 29 concom meeting. Soon, though. It's not like I don't have stuff.

Sounds like Megacity One (http://www.fortunecity.com/tatooine/sputnik/53/megacity.htm) to me -- biker police :D.

(And sort of vaguely apropos culture wars -- googling for a quick megacity reference I came across what seems to be a christian blog comparing preachers to megacity judges. Apparently with some measure of approval. The mind, it boggles o.O Particularly after hearing one of the Dredd creators giving a little speech at the last worldcon bemoaning allt he people who just didn't 'get' that Dress wasn't supposed to be a hero, quite the contrary =) (http://www.coffeeswirls.com/?p=829))

Erm, Dredd, not Dress. I really shouldn't type when I'm feverish =)

I let Wendia self-destruct a while ago. Its flag was the back of a black corset on a white background.

I can't wait for the next Norwescon. I already paid for my membership, I have my hotel room reserved, my employer approved my time off request - now the time just needs to move quicker!
