Keep this up, and I will have all of your papers pertaining to citizenship conveniently displaced and have you sent to Arizona where you will be promptly questioned by an officer who would like to see your papers.  He will not believe you when you say that you lost your papers, seeing as you very clearly look like an immigrant and you will be sent away with haste.

Yeah, it's a double post.  I am forum president however.  Anyway, at least I'm not interrupting prime time TV with an "important message" for the nation on every channel.

As I put this together via cut and paste while going through this thread, please*** let me know if I missed anything.

*As this will probably be a full-time job in and of itself, it is a good thing that the VP has no other real duties.
*"Zombie" includes those who spout insufficiently supported mindless political rhetoric.
***Note the use of "please" when even though this was a command . . . now that is indicative of true leadership skills.

I accept the position with bureaucratic gusto! I look forward to faithfully executing my duties in between my 10 mandatory 30 minute breaks, 8 weeks paid vacation and 3 hour lunch break.

Please take a number and this stack of forms. You will be seen in the order that you arrive.

I believe Eville should only get a Reservist company then, as his duties lie elsewhere.

Affirmative. You can name the company, 4th company it is since I really did not have a structure in mind.  Eville will be a reservist commander and his company as well, but he will need a second in command, his pick. Who is yours?
Oh and I recommend Benji and Reb as our scouts.
