And I thought we had the advantage in stealth planes.

UFO's are pretty much always just MFO's.

[Vulcan Prime]

I've always wondered about people who look for UFOs and Bigfoot.

Why do they take such terrible cameras with them?

[Consular]

So that its hard to work out what they actually were looking at.

The blurrier the image, the more a hairy streaking hick looks like a sasquatch.

[Westwind]

There was a fellow near Kalispell Montana that was hit by a car and killed recently.  He had been wearing a Sasquatch costume, jumping out along the side of the road.  Finally jumped too far out and got hit.

So many dumb ways to die!

[Charax]

That's an awesome way to die.

[Bhang Bhang Duc]

Should get a Darwin Award.

[Consular]

Gene pool just got better I guess.

 

I mean...

 

No, that's what I meant.

[Vulcan Prime]

It'd take a lot more speeding cars for the gene pool to noticeably improve.

[Consular]

I'm sure that could be arranged.

[Charax]

Abolish traffic lights and zebra crossings I say. Watch the mean global IQ steadily rise.

[Consular]

It's the perfect plan.

[Vulcan Prime]

And you command an army.

[Mediobogdum]

I may be TWPAF cannon fodder to our Commander, but blindly leaping out into the middle of the road in front of an on-coming vehicle?  Of course if it's a T90, then there would be plenty of time to take evasive action     

[Consular]

Not referencing our rmb discussion there, are you? 

[Mediobogdum]

 As if I would  

[Vulcan Prime]

You put together a fine argument anyway Commander. You know your stuff.

[Consular]

I like tanks.

"Once upon a time......"

 

I was watching that conversation.  When he tg'd me about a trade agreement, I noted that we're not an RP region, and he stopped that line of conversation.  But where was I......oh yeah, "Once upon a time....."

 

I invented the idea of the nation "Westwind" right around 1970.  In my story/imagination, it was first established in South West Africa in what is now modern Namibia, with it's capital of Windhoek.  Long stories short, Westwind was the first nation to attain Fusion energy and technologies which then made it viable for them to colonize/nationalize Antarctica.  Of course, they were thus a world power that no simple nuclear power could oppose.

 

I drew maps, wrote newspapers, tracked economics, and all that for Westwind.

 

Move forward in time to the 1980's and I had designed the Continent of Pacifica, which was then colonized by some people, and tribes arose in other areas, all developing into a variety of nations and cultures and economies that I tracked.  Wars, military strengths, economnies, etc.  Westwind was one of them, but I no longer focused as much on that, instead I was focused on Albion, and in the mid-80's started writing a book, "Alexander of Albion".  Alexander was King.  

 

So some of the stories were merged into Westwind of NationStates, with Alexandria and Emperor Alexander being it's original leader (taken from Albion), instead of Windhoek.  Although, Windhoek ended up on some maps of Westwind during the RP "Tragedy in Westwind".

[Vulcan Prime]

It's like you were preparing to rp in NationStates before the world wide web existed.

That makes four

[Consular]

Only four?

[Westwind]

*ponders what he can come up with for number five*
