“Crazy Asian Regime? Why, we invented Crazy Asian Regime!”Burma just upped the ante in the Crazy Asian Regime title race. Their ploy? Suddenly move the capital for no reason whatsoever: At precisely 6:37 a.m. last Sunday, according to one account - with a shout of "Let's go!" - a convoy of trucks began a huge, expensive and baffling transfer of the government of Myanmar from the capital to a secret mountain compound 200 miles to the north. That ‘get in touch with us by fax,’ but no fax number? That’s just good crazy. Ok, maybe there’s a reason behind this. Some are speculating that the too-long-in-the-jungle generals are worried about U.S. invasion, but that ain’t the favored explanation. No, the leading candidate is advice from fortune tellers. Joseph Silverstein [Burma expert at Rutgers] believes the most likely explanation for the relocation is advice by traditional Burmese fortune-tellers. All in all, a diabolical move. North Korea isn’t expected to take this challenge lying down, however. Kim Jong Il has already announced N. Korean scientists are working round the clock on ways to “Up the crazy. Bigtime!” Reports are already circulating every citizen will be now be named “Glub-Glub” and wear pointy wizard hats made of lasagna. posted by Dr. Reo Symes at 04:10 PM

I think you mean Kim Jong Il there at the end, but that was laugh out loud funny. Posted by: See-Dubya on November 16, 2005 04:20 PM

Burma/Myanmar/Hellburbia, or course, is run by the State Law and Order Restoration Council. SLORC. This fits nicely with my evolving theory that the James Bond flicks are coldly factual political documentaries. Posted by: utron on November 16, 2005 04:23 PM

Burma!!! Why'd you say Burma? I panicked. Posted by: Dale on November 16, 2005 04:58 PM
Reports are already circulating every citizen will be now be named “Glub-Glub” and wear pointy wizard hats made of lasagna. I have to stop reading this shit at work. That literally made me laugh out loud. Posted by: JackStraw on November 16, 2005 05:02 PM
Great idea - relocate the government to a place where it is the only thing around. Makes targetting that much easier. I say J-DAM, Posted by: Mikey on November 16, 2005 05:03 PM
Anyone else notice how they declared independence from the Brits at 4:20 am? Posted by: Moonbat_One on November 16, 2005 06:46 PM
LOL. The funniest part? They don't even have any lasagna. That makes it just that much more crazy. Posted by: The Colossus on November 16, 2005 07:23 PM
Just noted it - they've moved to a mountain lair. Pretty classic in the bad-guy-rule-the-world-evil-government thing. Points for style. Posted by: Mikey on November 16, 2005 07:43 PM
A mountian lair? Cool. Does it have a false volcanic caldera roof that splits open? Posted by: Darth Bubba on November 16, 2005 07:54 PM
Maybe it's supposed to stimulate the economy? The guy that mentioned SLORC reminded me that I saw a documentary about the anti-SLORC resistance fighters. Their official song is sung to the tune of "Dust In The Wind" and the lyrics are about how there is no hope and they will certainly all be killed and forgotten!

I've never been to Myanmar, but I've talked to Burmese emmigrants outside of Burma (some of them illegal), and their stories are just heart-breaking. Familes ripped apart by unnecessary poverty and the stupidest most insane violence. Human beings just weren't meant to suffer like that. America is one of the few countries that makes any effort to put any pressure on the Burmese government to improve. Posted by: SJKevin on November 16, 2005 09:17 PM
Old news... Posted by: Purple Avenger on November 16, 2005 09:24 PM
So, the entire government of Myanmar is in one little place in the mountains. Construction is still under way, so it can't be very well hardened. Is anyone else thinking: why did we invest billions in precisely targeted tactical nukes? Posted by: Michael on November 16, 2005 10:20 PM
Michael, why "precisely targeted"? Couldn't we just get ourselves a not-so-bright jihadi, dress him up in a faggy little messenger's outfit like Cleavon Little in "Blazing Saddles", and airdrop his silly ass into the new capitol. "Nuke-O-Gram for Myanmar!" All we have to do is convince a few islamoretards that Myanmar is the world's leading producer of pork chops, or industrial Koran-flushing toilets, and we'll have them begging to carry the mail for us on this one. Posted by: Russ from Winterset on November 16, 2005 10:48 PM
Russ: I like the way you think. Low-tech solutions seem to be working these days. Posted by: Michael on November 16, 2005 11:22 PM
Russ: Brilliant! Posted by: Mikey on November 17, 2005 08:55 AM
Some are speculating that the too-long-in-the-jungle generals are worried about U.S. invasion I guess nobody has the heart to tell them that, in the plan of things, they're rather low on our priority list? Posted by: on November 17, 2005 05:31 PM
And the best part of farming this job out to a Pakistani/Saudi jihadi? We can lay off two or three of our overpaid domestic jihadis by doing it this way. We've got a smoldering target, deniability because a foreign national carried out the attack, and we bump up the profit margin just a wee bit more. Win-win-win, if you ask me.

Email confirmed as once used by the Muskily Heterosexual James Talarico found in leak of emails of Fling.com sex dating site:
An email address that James Talarico's attorneys confirmed belonged to and was at one time used by the Texas Democratic U.S. Senate candidate appears in a database search result associated with the adult dating website Fling.com's 2011 data breach. A Fling.com account was created with Talarico's email address just before Talarico began teaching sixth graders. "Well I can't believe the trans-child-obsessed Confirmed Bachelor James Talarico is into group fetish shit," said noted void phantom Doctor Nullity, The Man Who Never Existed I'm not the guy who noted this, I saw it on X (Razib Khan maybe), but The Bulwark could be "audience capture". It might have started as the Frum / 90s-Kristol / NRO classic Eisenhower Republicanism. But nobody was reading the Bulwark except leftists.
Some researchers think the enigmatic and unreadable cipher of the Voynich Manuscript has resisted decipherment because the pages were bound in the wrong order, and putting them in the right order might allow them to finally break the code
But as of now: No Joy It occurs to me that a key step in breaking the Zodiac 340 cipher was putting the three parts of it in the correct order.
Flashback: "trans man" Lawyer freaks out after a judge denies "his" motion. He's ultimately arrested. "He" makes so much drama he was just recruited to develop a new CW show.
