While you slept, a new country was formed.

From a Yahoo news item:
"French wines, particularly Bordeaux, have increasingly seen their market share eroded by competition from cheaper New World wines from countries such as Australia, Chile and California."

I think that the secession of California from the United States deserves more notice than to be buried in the middle of an article about French wines.

JMHO.

I always kinda thought california was a different planet
:D
 
Sometimes a leader is needed. Sometimes a savior is needed. Sometimes only an editor will do!
 
Oh, dear. :rolleyes:

As a Californian, I can say that we were trying very hard to keep this a surprise from the rest of the U.S. Not that we expect anyone to really care or even notice, but we did have this big coming out party planned to show off our new flag (we've gone for purple and gold), the new national anthem (Randy Newman wrote it. It's very rousing), and the atheletes we'll be sending to the Olympics (surfers, skateboarders and snowboarders. Go Tomato!).

But I guess there's no keeping it secret any longer.

Hollywood is going to be our nation's capital, and we've talked Martin Sheen into being the president of our new country. We figure he's perfect for the job given all that practice he got on The West Wing.
:cool:

Well, it was kept a secret for a long time, I guess. :rolleyes: I live near Sacramento and I didn't know about it until I read it here. I Wonder how Ahnold feels being removed from office. :cool:

So, you didn't just upgrade the governator to presidator?
 
Did it break off and become an Island country? Or did we cede it to Mexico?

There was a large debate about it, but in the end we decided that Arnold wasn't right for the part. I mean, his agent did make a very convincing argument, and his screen test wasn't bad, but he just came across as too stiff to be the leader of a country. So we passed on him.

Luckily, we've semented California into 4 "states": South, Center, North and Far-North. We're going to let Arnold stay Governer of the Center part which includes Kern county, Fresno and San Luis Obispo.

What the heck does Obispo mean anyway?

I would suggest Far-North, North, Center and Far-Out.

Far out but still the center of the universe, thank you very much. That's why we decided on Hollywood for the capitol.

Oh, and we've just cast Morgan Freeman as the Vice President/Secretary of State (we decided to merge the two because he's so great at telling people bad news...like if a meteor is coming to destroy the planet).

OH, he's good that way. And then he can tell us about the letter O.
