Anecdotes -> Hectic Schedules after Hurricane Katrina (10/29/2005 1:17:48 AM)
|
Things are very hectic. The competition levels are intense as everyone is competing fiercely - almost like a war of desperate survival. The beds here aren't the best so good sleep is always welcome.
It appears that almost everyone is engaged in social networking and ass kissing, so the pressure is intense, to put it mildly. Only Darwin's finest will survive - the finest in everything, routine, qualifications, mental and especially social or networking.
The biggest obstacles right now are the competition as (almost) everyone is here for a reason - to stay! Many will fail. Many will fail dismally. Some of the more ambitious wreck their brains thinking of strategies, even those from the northern regions, who find their economies less vibrant. And everyone knows every other's intentions.
Someone new here remarked how racially tolerant this is. That is true, considering everyone treats others as fellow human beings and not as shades of the rainbow, despite the initial accusations of the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. Compared to the old places, those people there needed to be racially educated to be tolerant. After all, a country is only as strong as its weakest link. Stupid British heritage and Anglophiles: the British Empire is gone, dead, kaput: grow up punks. Stop loving cricket you fanatics and learn to love fellow human beings the way God intended.
The Less Lucky Werewolf tavern might be a good possible connection but no sane person is going bang his head against a wall of bigtory and hope for the best. At least two generations are required before down donkeys redeem themselves: hopefully I'm not too optimistic. There are some Wizard of Oz fans here but they are mostly colored yellow, probably experiencing the same bigotry as the cowardly lion back in Oz to that balding idiot Yohann Coward.
Some have brought their games here but after all these months, no one has even bothered to play: the hectic, desperate competition and intensity of the place. With one exception, a few venture out into quick games of blitz chess to relieve stress especially after the hurricane (Sept 2005).
It is good to know of the intensity of the Eastern campaigns. The illustrations do expound on the encirclements of the foes and since a picture is worth a thousand words (probably more!) they do justice to enrichment of the advancement. The real game was over in 4 years, in the victim's favor, but perhaps the chief strategist Wal Brau, in those same 4 years, reverse the tides and might make it to Kamchatka or even Timbuktu!
