Another Four Day Weekend

[aggienaut]

   Wow its been deplorably long since I've updated. When this happens it becomes harder to actually narrate what has occured lately, and the entry degenerates into a pointless ramble about whatever is on my mind like so many other livejournals.

   Today my only adventure was a trip to campus which after much reluctance I managed to get myself to partake in order to attend the Entertainment Council meeting. I get there only to find a notice on the door stating "meeting cancelled." But I find Azver in the ASUCD Senate Office and he steals my complaining rights because he came up early from San Fransisco for the meeting that was cancelled. On my way ought I run into a similarly disappointed Arya who had also come to campus specifically for the cancelled meeting. Hooray for entcon communication.


Discoveries
   I discovered another amusing web-comic, www.wigu.com, courtesey, of course, of the automatic most recent lj picture updaters.
   And while studying for ancient Russian history I discovered www.wikipedia.com, an online open-source encylopedia which is immensely useful for looking up obscure historical things.


Civ 3
   In other news, Mission Viejo is now the capitol of America in my game of Civ 3. The rest of America was overrun by angry MEChA aztec forces, but I took sympathy on the foolish American people and gave them a city which I named Mission Viejo. Then the Greeks were about to capture a small seaside village of mine so I named it Laguna Beach and gave it to the Americans.
   The French and Greeks have been annihilated. My imperial armies are now crushing Babylonia with tanks and bombers.
   As democracy tends to disfavour the state of constant war so cherished by my regime, and communism isn't as enticing in Civ 3 as it was in Civ 2, I think I'm going to stay a monarchy forever.


Quotes
   "Aaah that guy was creepy!!" boy circa seven to his friends after having passed me on the sidewalk.

you've got to get over this whole mission viejo thing. I was cracking up last night when the character on the sopranos was like "yeah, I'm from Mission Viejo." What the hell? You're special indeed.

san francisco is better!

Has San Fransisco ever had the Olympics? Mission Viejo has! Well technically it was LA but some events were in Mission Viejo, hence one of our main roads is Olympiad.

hm ...

Well, being that I only recognize the Winter Olympics which were held in Tahoe which equals norcal which equals san francisco, somehow your petty little summer games mean nothing. Besides, the UN was created in the city, the Beatles played their last concert there, AND we have really great bread. therefore, mv = not so cool.

How can you be disappointed that a meeting was cancelled? Such an event is cause for celebration!

You do of course mean capital. And, while I'm at it, United States.

I discovered www.wikipedia.com,

Incidentally, in Civ 3 there is a civilization called "America," and Mission Viejo is currently its capital in the game I've been playing.
