oh, and a report about the us-shutdown, written with the tone of US-media when reporting about "other" nations. very hillarious.

quote:
While the country’s most recent elections were generally considered to be free and fair (despite threats against international observers), the current crisis has raised questions in the international community about the regime’s ability to govern this complex nation of 300 million people, not to mention its vast stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction.

Kyubey: Wouldn't the fact that your entire operation relies on violating the Law of Conservation of Energy, by creating energy from nothing, cause tons of currency inflation? To say nothing of the fact that energy is mass, mass distorts space, and enough mass would cause the universe to collapse in on itself.

On the other hand, since when does your species care about the laws of physics.
