Uh Oh

Nomad · Post by **Nomad** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 6:38 am

Occasionally I shoot off an e mail or two to our congressional leaders with thoughts or advice on new and improved ways of running the govt.

Tutorials if you will accompanied by scoldings.

Often these thoughts are fleeting and frequently they may or may not be useful in the day to day proceedings of our elected officials.

It also may be possible my plans have as many holes in them as the swiss cheese on your ham sandwich.

At any rate theres a message on my answering machine that my congressman would like to speak with me and would I please call him. :-3

Perhaps it would be best if one of you guys returned the call on my behalf and then reported back to me.

Who's up for this ?

I had a best friend once because my cause put him in the spotlight and on the news and newspapers ......biggest load of crp I've ever seenin my life.

Now if you were to request someone knock out one of your MP's I'd line up

Well Im completely comfortable criticizing the whole bunch of them with lightning strikes on the keyboard.

I dont actually want to talk to them though.

Im thinking of firing off an e mail lambasting him for stressing me out.

Then Ill go hide in the closet.

I'd go back over your last two emails and make sure there aren't any phrases like "capitalist pigs" "infidels" or any references to death.

If you're clear of such phrases, perhaps they want you to present your ideas in a speech to congress. :wah:

Can I have a 12 month work visa please? Starting 2010. Then I'd like a research grant to keep me going for the period, and a university to be attached to, I'd like somewhere west-coasty, or if not then maybe New York would be nice.

Nomie I'm sure they want you to call back so they can tell you if you keep annoying them you will be arrested. :wah:

There was a "your days are numbered" statement but that was in reference to my coup to oust him through civil means.

Im sure he got that.
