Muad Dib's time has come. All the planning, all the practice, it was all for this... Maybe you can win this one.
It's a preview of the battle that will commence when the planet's oil starts running dry BTW, Massachusetts called. It wants Maine back.
Perhaps the Balkanization of America and a second civil war won't happen over politics, but over water instead. There are some western states that are having the same problems, and have been for some time.
It is for reasons like this that I may not remain a life-long Arizona resident. I had a bit of a religious experience when I visited my Dad in Wisconsin the first week of the year this year. It was very difficult for me to come home to AZ. Definitely gave serious thought to packing in the whole desert lifestyle to move back to the cold country.
I have very specific reasons for wanting to move to Wisconsin, and Alpine, Arizona is thoroughly unable to satisfy these reasons.
Plenty of water at the North Pole. I recommend melting the ice to break it into chunks and then transport it to land. Instead of Oil Tankers we could build a fleet of Ice Tankers. Heck Global Warming is good for something after all!
I hate Georgia with the burning passion of 10 billion suns. I'm especially pleased that the Federal Courts jumped up and bitch slapped Atlanta on behalf of the Great States of Alabama and Florida. Muad Dib. We will meet the invader on the outer verge of just and right defense. No quarter. Raise the black flag. Atlanta needs to be burnt once again.
Depending on how the election goes, you might get your wish. I wouldn't want to be living there if Obama runs and loses.
Clearly. It'd kill off a lot of sea life, but for your statement to be true, the ice caps would have to mass several times the volume of the ocean. And just think what a sudden freshwater ocean would do to creatures that can't exist in fresh water.
No Georgian will EVER touch my beloved Tennessee River! ...Unless they pay appropriate ramp, boating and fishing license fees to the States of Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi and other relevant entities first.
For now... I have a feeling that within ten years we will see water futures on the futures exchanges.
For fuck's sake, Georgia has access to a virtually endless supply of water: the Atlantic Ocean. Just build some desalination plants and pipe it everywhere in Georgia if it's that important to the state and stop bothering other states. God forbid Georgia simply take care of Georgia.
What? How dare you suggest common sense solutions! If you let it happen again we will deport your sorry ass to Mexico. And no we don't care that you're a motherfucking cracker either.
