| Just as long as our official state animal is not a gibbon 
Not that I have anything against gibbons (or seafood). I've seen many very cute gibbons, and many very nice-looking fishes. I ate the fishes, though

| Hummm... did I forget to mention that I would be sole primary advisor to GFI and that I would insure that all decisions were made in the 'proper light?"

I missed that one
Speaking of which, the examination line begins here. Step right up!
And in the Fnet country, instead of congress, or the house of lords, we'd have the house of swords, made up of 3 main parties.
Epee, with of course Zilverzmurfen as our leader.
Foilits, who for whatever reason have deemed Neinteen as their leader.
And Sabreurs, who have a leader who admittedly is a shrewd one, but I blame that on the fact that he used to fence epee.
