Now, in a week of electoral double trouble as the US and New Zealand both go to the polls to decide between a plate of shit with shards of broken glass or something not nearly as distasteful, we arrive in New Jersey's Double Trouble State Park. The park is apparently a unique insight into the Pine Barrens ecosystem, and it features a historic village that was originally a cranberry farm and packing plate. Come see the sights of multiple cranberry bogs! How can you possibly go home disappointed?

Buck the trend and start your own state! Or get Indiana to instigate an interstate war with Illinois and happily let Illinois invade and seize The Region.

And if this Mitch fellow is centralising everything in Indianapolis and fucking over everywhere else, why aren't other parts of the state all up in arms about it too?
 
sun's gone again. dark clouds rolling in. or rather, staying there like bloated old bags of water, just waiting to come down on my parade.
 
This scene = AWESOME:

Mimi: It's true you sold your guitar and bought a guitar?
Roger: It's true, I'm leaving now for Santa Fe. It's true you're with this yuppie scum?
Benny: You said you'd never speak to him again.
Mimi: Not now.
Maureen: Who says that you have any say in who she says things to at all?
Roger: Yeah.
Joanne: Who said that you should stick your nose in other people's--
Maureen: Who said I was talking to you?

Joanne: We used to have this fight each night, she'd never admit I existed.
Benny: Calm down.
Roger: Everyone, please!
Mimi: He was the same way, he was always run away, hit the road, don't commit, you're full of shit!
Benny: Mimi!
Joanne: She's in denial!
Mimi: He's in denial!
Roger: Guys, come on!
Joanne: Didn't give an inch, when I gave a mile!
Mimi: I gave a mile!
Roger: Gave a mile to who?!
Roger and Benny: Come on guys, chill!

Joanne and Mimi: I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had, someone to live for, unafraid to say 'I love you.'
Roger: All your words are nice Mimi, but love's not a three way street! You'll never share real love, until you love yourself. I should know.

Okay, that'll be enough Rent fangirling for tonight.

Because I left out the time zone issue. When the time zone lines were drawn however many decades ago, the line for Eastern Time Zone ENDS at the Ohio/Indiana border. For some reason, counties on the border decided they wanted to be Eastern time, for for some other reason, nobody stopped them. Then more and more counties started switching to Eastern time til we got to where we are today, the Region, and 7 counties in Southwest Indiana are the ONLY counties of 92 that are on Central time. It's so fucked up. And the state legislature keeps PROMISING that they'll fix it, but then they get up in arms because it's 12 counties verse 80. So why don't we move to Eastern time? Well first of all, WE DON'T LIVE IN THE FUCKING EASTERN TIME ZONE. Second of all, it makes NO sense for the near million people in NW IN to switch to Eastern time when we live at most 50 miles away from Chicago, the second largest city in the United States.

So this is what keeps us separated. One hour of time. This is why we don't all unite against someone. The rest of the state is more concerned about getting their time zone issues addressed.



Then actually there's another reason I forgot to mention. There is a MAJOR toll road that runs along The Region, and across North Indiana to Ohio. It's the biggest in the nation, and Illinois leased their portion of it out to an AUSTRALIAN! Company. Well Mitch decided that doing that would be the best thing for Indiana as well, so he leased out our portion as well. Indiana Got 3.8 billion for it, and Northern Indiana was promised a good chuck of that money. We haven't seen it. All the rest of the state sees is a budget surplus, they don't see the way that it effected lowly northern Indiana.
 
Hi Anna, you postwhore. And regular whore. Cheap nasty whore with STDs. :wave:
 
You know what else is ridiculous? Having a high school football or basketball game start at 8 at night, therefore not ending until 11 Pm, because the team you're playing, a team from the SAME STATE YOU ARE, 45 minutes away, lives in a different time zone. I remember being at school so late at night if the basketball game went into overtime because I was in the Pep Band, and to stick around afterwards to help clean up

Wow, that's all kinds of fucked up. Must admit I find it amazing that the counties were allowed to make the timezone decision themselves. Queensland is ALWAYS having debates about this shit - but to do with daylight savings, to resolve the problem on the southern Gold Coast/Tweed Heads, where the NSW/QLD state border cuts through a metropolitan area and therefore the Tweed Heads portion is an hour ahead for half a year. The proposal is to introduce DST only in southeast Queensland, or the part of the state south of the Tropic of Capricorn, or various other divisions. Northern QLD doesn't want it. But the proposal never goes anywhere. I keep wondering when the Gold Coast City Council will just take the initiative and move clocks forward an hour in its city boundaries, but then it'd never do that if Brisbane doesn't do it too, and Brisbane isn't affected by the Tweed problem so it won't.

I bet Mitch's bank account is happy about all this.

And ahh, good old Aussie companies fucking over the world. Need I bring up our mining company that poisoned the Danube?
 
Oh my God oh My God oh My God. I don't know if I can survive the next few months in music.

The Killers in a couple weeks
New U2 in January? *crosses fingers*
New Our Lady Peace in January, and I have a reason to be excited about this because they're going in a decidedly new direction and producing their own album for the first time :hyper:
And now, there is a rumor...omg, are you ready for this? I can hardly control myself......NEW SPRINGSTEEN! POSSIBLY IN JANUARY!
 
There is no such thing as a good musical.

Either write a play or perform a concert. Don't dilly-dally in the middle ground and just create an unrealistic fucked-up mishmash.

They got away with it because it was the beginning days of Time Zones and there weren't any real laws FORCING them to be on the same time zone. For some reason though no other state seems to have taken the idiotic initiative that Indiana did :doh:.

Oh and you'll love Mitch's solution to the problem. "Well we'll just let each county pick which time zone they want to be."

Reading about the way that he left his big time presidentially appointed position, I have to wonder.

What's all this now? What did they do :doh:
