:D it's a cool shirt. A nice easy way to 'dress up'. I donno, you could do something nice and simple like just getting a witch hat and warning the students to be extra nice.

Goram: sounds cool! No idea for a cheap version of the gun but maybe hit a toystore and do a little work with paper-mache to reshape it, and some of that 'metalic' paint you can get at craft stores?

Hi all,
I have a few questions regarding the government of the Verse. First off it is called a Republic, but is it really a republic? The United States of America is a Republic which means that we are all regionally represented and most importantly in a republic our rights are supposed to be paramount. (I know recent events may have shaken that belief) Given this frame work for a republic does the government which rules the Verse meet those requirements? Are the outer moons represented?

If it does meet the requirements of a republic are the moons represented but in a limited way sort of like the southern states after our civil war?

Were all of the planets and moons terra formed at the expense of the republic and then the outer planets/moons decided they didn't need that government any more, or did the outer planets and moons have to terra form themselves and then the “Republic” said they were going to join? If the latter were true, then wouldn’t the war have been a war of conquer rather than a civil war?

From what I've read, the inner planets were terraformed first, then the outer planets/moons. It seems to me that it was at the cost of the Alliance(or whatever the name was before the war), and that they tried to control the planets they "paid" to terraform. So, nominally, they were part of the republic, settled by immigrants from the inner planets. One reason they went to war was because they didn't really have any representation in the government. They "told them what to think, what to say. Don't walk. don't run"
My opinion. Please any more educated browncoats, enlighten us.

So if the Republic did pay for the terra forming of the planets and moons, then don't they have the right to say how those bodies are governed? I know this cold be a sticky thing to say around here, but I am only trying to understand stuff.

The war is based on our civil war, and in some ways I could see where our revolutionary war could be compared to this situation. Basically Britain did spend lots of money on us and did tell us how to run our government but then it started taxing us as subject of the king and did not give us proper representation causing the war. Hmm, I must think on this.

I find myself thinking, 'No taxation without representation' but not a specialist area of history for me.

So hey all, about to embark on another fun day at work. Hope you're all doing well.

If any of you are good at naming things/interested in words then listen up, my band are wrestling with trying to find a new name and I'm canvasing for ideas from pretty much anyone I meet including random stranger in the street. We're not too genre specific (very heavy metal band but now with melodic vocals) and just looking for ideas so if anyone is sat there thinking I love the words onomatopoeic, affront, nebulous or I've always wanted to listen to a band called, the beloved light of the genetic predator then here's your chance because I suck at this!

About the band names, that made me think of a scene from PCU.

Katy: What about Naugahyde Windpipe?
Cecilia: Too metal.
Raji: Oedipus and the Mama's Boys.
Cecilia: Too college radio.
Deeje: My Johnson Is 12 Inches Long.
Cecilia: Interesting, but I don't think it's a band name.

Band name: Doppler Effect

(ok that was influenced by the new comedy The Big Bang Theory).

Will ponder that today. However, lots of bands take their names from other bands songs who influenced them. So maybe something like "Morbid Tales" if Celtic Frost is an influence, etc.

If I'd never touched the program before I'd be way over my head. I don't know what I'm gonna do in a similar class for Quark.

Morning all. Today is a day I would gladly drown myself in alchohic debauchery, if I only drank! So, Mountain Dew and chocolate donuts will have to do. No real reason, just feel meh today.

I'm a fan of Mt Dew, but have moved over to Diet Pepsi Max. Mt Dew is delicious but has never actually performed any type of "wake me up" function. The Max gets me through my mornings and middays.

Anyways, time to do some cleaning around the apt before the BCB&G opens later.

That's why I never kiss 'em on the pants.

BSR was hacked. Everything since May 2006 seems to have been lost, possibly permanently.

All my stuff went up since then. Luckily I've got the original drafts on the computer at home. Not everyone may be so lucky. I'd hate to think of all the shiny artwork and good writing as gone for good.



Time to pull out the big vat of chocolate and restock the breakables room. Some folk may be taking this a mite harder than myself....

My word what a day!

*stumbles into the bar*

I am a man in need of a drink. Another daft day of work although I am beginning to make a dent in the work list but it is like battling an unending hoarde.

I appologise for my absence, how's everyone been? Sorry to hear about the BSR, I hate these people with a passion.

In band news, it would seem the fellas are falling towards Black Harvest, which I admit to not being sure about but one of the down sides of running a band as a democracy is that you don't always get your own way and I am famously bad at naming things.

Anyway, more things to do, if Emma shows up say hi, think I might have to track her down in Leicester and make sure she is ok.

Off to the fireworks tonight with my other half, only thing keeping me going at the moment, had our six year anniversary on Saturday, not sure how we became the stable pair out of our lot but blimey!

I was wondering if anyone knew about Emma, I've been missing her.

I've talked to Magda, she is doing well, though still doesn't have her computer, so she is still relying on using her dad's whenever she can.

I don't think we'll see a whole lot of Mavs. It seems she did the same sort of thing that Fly did. Pity, as they will both be missed (I know I miss 'em terribly).

*is hugglebombed* Woo!

Yes. College. And yes, one midterm just came and went today. Due to the late-start and/or accelarated nature of all my classes, the midterms are rather screwy, though. PhotoShop 1 is a four-week class, so two weeks in (i.e. now) is the midterm, then it will be over by the 16th and PhotoShop 2 starts the 26th and goes for four weeks, so I'll have a midterm on that in like the second week of December, and then I think all my classes will be over before Yule. Signup for the next semester is coming up; I'm thinking a less insane schedule would be nice.

Actually, yes, as the only way she could pay me back for the D*C hotel was to have me deduct it from the fund I felt horrible about it, but I couldn't leave my credit card unpaid. I thought she was going to send me what she owed me when she got home, but she hasn't as she is very slightly broke. I haven't wanted to risk ordering it, even with the advantagious exchange rate, because again I can't really leave my bills unpaid. I have considered writing her a check and sending it to her so that she can buy one herself with however much it ends up being... I don't know, I can't think right now
