Happy Friday

Day 1,507, 22:17 • Published in USA USA • by Levif92

Due to the positive feedback that I have received, I have decided to follow the format of my previous two articles and continue this way so long as it pleases the masses, for it is you I serve. Given that I am a RL full time commuting student at Rutgers University and also work full time, I may not be able to provide my "What's Going On:" section everyday. However, I am committed to at least providing my "Fun Fact of the Day:" and "Quote of the Day:" sections everyday for your reading pleasure. On the days where my "What's Going On:" section is absent, I will provide additional fun facts and quotes. At the very least, by subscribing to my paper, you will be provided with fun facts to share with family and friends (That just might make them wonder why you haven't signed up for Jeopardy) and inspiring, humorous, or sometimes just plain intelligent quotes... everyday, for the rest of your life. But that's not all, call in the next twenty minutes...you get the point. Annnndddd we're off!

Fun Fact of the Day:
If you toss a penny 10,000 times, it will not be heads 5,000 times, but more like 4,950. The heads picture weighs more, so it ends up on the bottom.

Quote of the Day:
"Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers."
-Voltaire
(Perhaps my favorite person to quote)

What's Going On:

1.The Thing on Everyone's Min😛 Presidential Elections
Well folks, it would appear that our next president will be Oblige. Currently standing at 62.86% of the votes (21:30 Day 1,507), Oblige seems to have taken the victory. However, I have heard rumors of the seemingly ruthless vote buying and 'encouragement' that usually occurs in big elections like this so there is unfortunately no 100% certainty until the dust finally settles on Day 1,508. Currently standing in 3rd, Sir Gulden Draak has a fairly decent percentage of voters on his side (14.27% to be exact). With PtH only ahead of him by 1.71%, I suspect that some late voters that would normally vote Oblige may actually cast a vote for SGD just to put him ahead of PtH. Just under 3.5% of the votes each, the forecast looks grim at best for candidates Faucoult and Ghinculov. Best of luck to you all in the final voting hours!

2.Update on Poland


Unfortunately, it looks like Poland may be on the rise again as it has successfully regained most of its former regions. Although I suspect that Poland will be on the defensive for a while, I can't help but to fear that 'A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall' on some of Poland's former regions in Germany.


3.Update on the France/Spain Situation


A relentless resistance force in the French region of Aquitaine continues on. However, it seems that even their best attempts are futile. Similarly, Spain has also mustered a resistance force against our occupation of the Spanish region of Argon.


4.Serbia in Italy


The battling continues between Serbia and Croatia as both Italy and Albania have gotten in on the action against the Serbs. Perhaps we will begin to see a collapse similar to what was seen with Poland as Serbia begins to face multiple fronts against it. I have hopes, but also doubts given Serbia's large population. Any lost regions on the Italian Peninsula or the Greek/Macedonian mainland will likely be regained through resistance campaigns.

No picture, but Croatia is also defending its regions in Mexico from attacks by Spain. This obviously has some affect on Croatia's ability to concentrate its attacks on Serbia.

5.China


Largely successful in Indonesia, China continues to battle it out with N. Korea while simultaneously defending itself from India. I know of several Americans who have been helping China in its efforts amid our somewhat 'slow' military activity today and yesterday and all I can say is great job! 🙂


Thanks for all of the positive feedback, subscriptions, and votes. Hope everyone enjoys!
Happy Friday!
