Economic dominance = victory. America has lots of prisoners, why not send them to Alaska and get them to work drilling oil? Free labour, reduction of dependence on foreign oil, two birds with one stone!

Plus, anyone who refuses work detail could be shot for treason!

Hold on, I thought in Dave Q-land all the prisoners were off fighting in Afghanistan...?

Criminals = Dangerous Oil drilling = Dangerous.

Therefore prisoners drilling for oil = Dangerous Squared = Kaboom.

Dangerous Squared = Kaboom is the name of Tom Clancy's new novel by the way.

"Dave Q-land" - the theme park that refuses entry to ugly ppl, and where you're shot if you don't line up in an orderly fashion?

Queensland = named after Dave Queen's great-great-great-great-grrrrreat grandfather. He invented the 'ship undesirables elsewhere' idea.

Well maybe they could take some cues from Japan. NOT. hah! I will try to give it a kick up the arse when I am there in two days.

What a fine young man Dave Q is. We should all put the peasantry to such edifying work!

America has provided the model for a successful economy and society, and it has my unquestioning support in its attempt to ensure a world victory for freedom and liberty.

This worries me. We were already headed for recession, now this. Goodbye surplus. Not to mention social security. Will finding a job be impossible soon? WHat about keeping one?

Phew! I'm glad I'm working in a dot-com!

― Tom, Wednesday, 26 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Beware, Tom. Work in such artificial and short-lived constructs rarely endures very long. You might need to go to the land!

I wish you luck, but I fear the worst.

― John Hay-Heddle, Wednesday, 26 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ho ho John, you fool! With my valuable SHARE OPTIONS I will soon OWN all the land!

― Tom, Wednesday, 26 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

We'll see, Tom. Some of my fellow councillors may have to sell some of it first!
