Creating an Independant Autistic State

Just what a bunch of zoned out autistic people need on an island; raptors looking for an easy meal.

I don't believe she was refering to Dinosaur type Raptors, but modern bird ones like falcons and such, which had come up as suggestions for symbols and national birds, etc.

This idea could only end well.

Ooooh!
We get dinosaurs??
Wheee!

I meant raptors as in birds of prey. Hawks, falcons, eagles and the like.
Sorry for any mix-up.

Two questions:
What would the national sport be?
What is the national flower? I'm a florist, and would like to start making the decorations.

Any particular reason I'm laughing my head off as I read this?
Seriously, it would either work very well, or fail dramatically. Is there anyone who is serious on this thread? I'm certainly amused. Might I suggest having a decent school system? One that allows kids to see the results of all psych testing done on them? Perhaps a youth orchestra?

It might be a form of euphoric hysteria or perhaps only that you have gas.

In Aspia, it is the children who psych test the teachers. It is left to the children to either retain teachers or let them go.

Music will be highly encouraged and supported in Aspia, including factories as well as schools, but generally limited to soundproof spaces, except for formal, well in advance, scheduled performances.

Dear Sir, Scheduled performances?

Surely you jest!?

Public performances from Aspie children?

Aspies of all ages specialize in Performance Anxiety, Fear of Public Speaking, and loathe being watched!

Sylkat. (who is considering an anxiety attack just thinking about it!)

Yes, I knew that but forgot. I never did any performance type thing myself.

But I know! I will blame the Provisonal People's Aspian Revolutionary Councils Intelligence Agency! Yes, that will do nicely.

Thankyou Comrade Minister for your unceasing and selfless total devotion to the Revolution!

There will be a little extra popcorn in your next check.

I would like to be Foreign Minister. Or to have a Head of Mission appointment--the Permanent Mission to the UNO at New York would do. Or Vienna, in a pinch.

It's been 12 years since I last had a diplomatic passport, and airports are much more hassle than they used to be.

Messages with flowers are not complicated. It's easy.
Someone's sad: send flowers
Someone's trying to make someone else happy: send flowers
Someone turned fifty: send flowers


I've a suggestion for scheduled musical performances: let's just put a big pretty curtain between the musicians and the audience. As it is a music thing, we only need to listen, not look.

Dear Here Be Dragons, EXCELLENT post!

Can the Performance Curtain be a deep, rich Violet Chinese Brocade?

With metallic gold fringe?

If Extreme Meandering is our sport, I will be our first athlete!

I do not, however, do Spandex.....

We currently do not have any Heads of Mission, as we haven't been recognized by any country yet. But Foriegn Minister is no problem. You can start tommorrow. Also since we haven't invaded Canada yet, we are collecting our Revoltionary cadres in a dispersed pattern. The Foreign Ministry is forming in Trinadad Tobago. You will be issued a Passport, but under an assumed name (Margret Thatcher) so as not to arrouse suspicion. We also try to avoid using airtravel as much as possible, so you will travel to Trinadad Tobago by Italian Cruise Ship.



Ummm... I meant a thing that they used to do in the 1800's. Different type flowers had different meanings and whole messages (essentially secret) could be constructed by using certain ones. I saw it in a very old little book we have, I think titled 'The Language of Flowers'

A subterranean country would be nice.... We could corner the market on magic mushrooms! And ride giant moles and worms! Wait... not worms. Bats!
Or the reverse; a giant flying city-state-country! We could drop bombs on those the anger us and block rainfall!

.....Is anyone else nervous about how enjoyable this is?

Of the two, I lean towards subterranean civilization. An airial city would cost a bundle to keep flying with the cost of gas being what it is. But it is a excellent idea that I will bring up with the Revolutionary Peoples Provisional Aspian Council immediately.

I think it would be best to maintain half above ground and half below. The underground portion would give us a unmatched survivability capability and at a stroke neutralize the nuclear threat. 'Go ahead, sling your Nukes. We don't give a Moles butt.'

And yes, the ability to produce food, and maintain breathable air underground would be critical aspects. For me the deciding point is whether we can produce what is needed to make a pizza. To each their own on toppings.

This was much better than the last few movies I tried to watch.
