Is this to be a empathy test?

The New California Governor has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the state, rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, The Terminator's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Austro-English" (or, if nobody will be offended, "Austrionics")..

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favor of the "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with the "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech za. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

If zis mad yu smil, pleas pas it on to oza pepl.

Eigenradioplays only the most important frequencies, only the beats with the highest entropy. If you took a bunch of music and asked it, "Music, what are you, really?" you'd hear Eigenradio singing back at you. When you're tuned in to Eigenradio, you always know that you're hearing the latest, rawest, most statistically separable thing you can possibly put in your ear.

Anyone see this yet?
It's called Robin Williams Plan:

1) the us will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their affairs, past & present. we will promise never to "interfere" again.

2) we will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with germany, south korea and the philippines. they don't want us there. we would station troops at our borders. no more sneaking through holes in the fence.

3) all illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. we'll give them a free trip home. after 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or where they are. france would welcome them.

4) all future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 day visits unless given a special permit. no one from a terrorist nation would be allowed in. if you don't like it there, change it yourself, don't hide here asylum would not ever be available to anyone. we don't need any more cab drivers.

5) no "students" over age 21. the older ones are the bombers. if they don't attend classes, they get a "d" and it's back home, baby.

6) the us will make a strong effort to become self sufficient energy wise. this will include developing non polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the alaskan wilderness. the caribou will have to cope for a while.

7) offer saudi arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. if they don't like it, we go someplace else.

8) if there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not "interfere". they can pray to allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. besides, most of what we give them gets "lost" or is taken by their army. the people who need it most get very little, anyway.

9) ship the un headquarters to an island some place. we don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. besides, it would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens. use the buildings as replacement for the twin towers.

10) all americans must go to charm and beauty school. that way, no one can call us "ugly americans" any longer. now, ain't that a winner of a plan? "the statue of liberty is no longer saying 'give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' she's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'you want a piece of me?'"

What do you think?

E-me if ya want, but I think it's got some seriously debateable points...most of which I agree with....

How does it smell by you?
Scorecard Home

We have two homes, one in Tucson which rates in the worst 10%, and one in Cortez, Colorado (the Four Corners Area) which rates in the best 30%.

Wish we could make a decent living up there and get out of this stink hole of Southern Arizona...
