Who's president?

Soulless Zombie's picture

Thanks, Lou.

okay, all, heads up! Saturday morning will be calm with a sudden BIG ASS WIND that lasts for five minutes. A big wind in the shopping district. I need it for my post. Hope no one minds. But say something, if you do.

Say something about the calm part. I figure the natural weather will be sunny and all. However, anyone meandering about Hope street in particular will be struck by flying cars! That can't be helped. So be careful. It probably won't affect you, but it might. It might even give you a story idea. This wind will put Dorothy's tornado to shame. But it only lasts five minutes.

I don't think anyone ever NEEDS it to rain, unless you're in Eithiopia, and your crops are failing :D

Okay, seriously, I have only used the weather a couple of times - mostly in the morning where the weather is more changable anyway. I say who posts first we go with that - after all the point of rpg is to play off of one another and write your way out of difficult situations (we can't just sit in a bubble unaffected by what others write). Of course this is LA - it's not like England where the weather changes at the drop of a hat. But if you're planning terrential downpours or six foot of snow or a hurricane it might be best to give a heads up :D

I read your respsonse to Karie. She had to think about it, but I think she found it funny. I think. Well, I'm still getting laid, so it couldn't have been that bad!

heh.

Another question:

Weather affects us. How do we decide the weather for a day? Is it whoever posts first? For instance, if I post that it was sunny, and Kristen (to pick a name out of a hat) needed it to be rainy that day, what happens?

I think it should be whoever posts first, personally.

Uh, yeah, sure....

*engage lie mode*

Karie, Sid/Jeffrey has been the perfect gentleman. He's not been online while drunk, nor has he indulged in sexual innuendo or made any improper comments whatsoever....

*lie mode cancel*

Was that OK, Sid?

Actually I can confirm it was Karie since she sent me an email. Somehow the public game discussions had gotten restricted to just members (D'oh!) so I fixed it. She was asking about it becasue she SPECIFICALLY mentioned keepng an eye on her friend.

Don't look now (and I might be wrong) but I think Cricket is my girlfriend, Karie. Checking up on me. Making sure I'm staying out of trouble. I must be spending too much time here. :roll:

She goes by the name cricket.

Hi, Karie! *wave* :D

President

I would like to throw Hillary Clinton into the mix.

By the way, David Palmer is fine by me too. But I'll need more than two votes.

I'm about to declare Clint Eastwood the president of 2005.

but please

if anyone objects, say something!

I will wait a few more days.

Who's president?

MrDave's picture

I'd vote for him...David Palmer for PREZ!

Who's president?

Heather's picture

Well, since I really couldn't give a shit about who's President now, I find it hard to drum up any feelings of enthusiasm about deciding an imaginary President for 2005. So, given the choices available I've gone for Clint-baby too.

Hell, why not Kevin Kline? He played someone pretending to be the President in "Dave".

Or what about using "David Palmer" from the series 24? We still wouldn't have a female president, but at least he'd be black.

Personally, I'm for any president. I mentioned Eastwood because of nostalgia.

When I wsa in high school, over ten years ago, I outlined this bitchin' sci-fi novel series that predicted Clint as the president during--well wouldn't you know it?--2002-20010-ish. That was the only cool thing in my series, so you can imagine how silly the rest was.

I'm just tying to justify my past mistakes. So I vote Clint!

But I'd prefer to wash my hands of this vote and let everyone else decide. Eventually, if no one takes an interest in this thread, I'll simply pick someone. So if it matters to you, make your voice known.

Thanks to you few who've responded.

Well I don't really feel that I had much of a choice here, I don't know any of the other candidates apart from Eastwood. Okay so I have heard of Al Gore and Bush, but I haven't a clue what party they stand for - and anyway what are their campain issues?

It's bad enough following British politics, nevermind American...

Oh hell, you know what'll happen anyway, everyone will vote for Eastwood but in the end Bush will be president because he'll demand a recount. :D

BTW, why CAN'T we have a female president? We are pioneers after all!

Right, Siddy's mad. Time to actually vote. Not a fan of either major party, so that eliminates mostly everyone. Don't like Nader either. So, I can vote only one way: Clint Baby. Who might just win unanimously.

Who's president?

Soulless Zombie's picture

Yeah yeah. What you just said. Thanks.

Who's president?

Kaarin's picture

Right, vote. Only problem is that you left the Libertarian off the ballot. So, I will have to write-in the Kramer/Douglas ticket, and decide later on which of them ran for President and which for Vice-President. :)

As usual, Adam, you make me laugh. And when I'm done laughing, I wipe my eyes and go:

"Uh...he didn't add a damn thing to this discussion did he?"

:?

Vote, you bitch. Vote.

Maybe we should just get Jack Lemon and James Garner to reprise their characters from My Fellow Americans. Of course, then we have either the Old Man or the Ladies' Man for President. :)

"Was that yes on 1 or yes on 2?"

:lol:

(For those of you who know Buckaroo Bonzai."

Who's president?

MrDave's picture

Actually, Arnold Swartzenegger may be running for Governor of California in 2003.

So why not somone you like and/or admire...Colin Powell.

Or you could use the Buckaroo Banzaii Approach:
p1: "He called The President and asked what happened to his underwear."

P2: "President of what?"

p1: "Of the United States."

P2: "Oh."

Actually, i didn't like anyone form the list but Clint Eastwood.....hence my choice.

It would be nice to have him for president. If only!

Who's president?

Soulless Zombie's picture

For the record, I voted Clint Eastwood. I mean shoot...if Reagan can be president...and if Palm Springs elected Sonny Bono...why the hell not?

In the Western Nation of Eastwood
With Western guns
And Eastwood girls

Er...that was supposed to be a song parody. Never mind. :oops:

P.S. why not a female president? Or is that too soon? Maybe it's too soon. We're only talking about 3 years from now. Okay. Never mind. Ignore the fact that I'm about to click SUBMIT.

Group Decisions on the LABN Mythos

Soulless Zombie's picture

Just who is the president of 2005 America? I really don't remember it ever being stated. I didn't feel I have the right to make that choice for everyone by arbitrarily mentioning it in a story post.

Will everyone please vote?

Or if the candidates I've provided suck or seem unreasonable, post a response with whom you think should be president of LABN reality. I would like to be able to mention the president's name from time to time. It's especially important for characters like Galen to know the answer to this question.

No decisions will be made hastily. So speak up.

(Or don't. If you're like me and don't give a damn, sit back and watch history happen. Personally, I just want a filler for the blank in "He called President ____________ and asked what happened to his underwear."

I mean isn't that all we really need? To be able to call the president by name, and to ask about our underwear?

Indeed.
