Happy Saturday/Contest (01/21/12)

Day 1,523, 05:11 Published in USA USA by Levif92


Happy Saturday all! I'm feeling it today so it's gonna be a long one. Also, I just wanted to thank all of my subscribers and everyone who has contributed to helping my paper grow. Special shoutouts to Jude, Rainy Sunday, Koo Guy, Custer, and Cody Caine, to name a few, for helping me grow [pot]. *Just Jude on that last little detail* I'd also like to thank perhaps my most faithful reader, Kostyav, who's not even a US citizen (S. Africa). Thanks Kostyav!
With that being said, I have reached 80 subscribers and would like more, possibly breaking 100 by next saturday? SO...


On with the show then:
I'll be doing another contest this weekend with the same deal as last time except with an optical illusion: Find me the best optical illusion you have ever seen and PM (So as not to spoil the illusion) me a link to it. If I decide that it is the best one I will present that picture in my monday article with a link to your paper embedded in the illusion, place a small advertisement to your paper under the illusion, and send you 10 Q6 tanks. If you do not have a paper and you win I will send you 30 Q6 Tanks! Contest will end Monday, Day 1,525 at 8:00 eRep time. Any entries made following that time will not be considered...unless the illusion was made by Zeus, himself. So make sure to enter before monday and who knows...you may win and become just as excited as this old lady when she won friday night bingo:


Fun Fact of the Day:
Rubbing Vicks Vapor Rub on the bottom of your feet and then wearing socks helps cure a stuffy nose just as well, if not better, than if placed on your chest or neck.

Quote of the Day:
"I'm glad I didn't have to fight in any war. I'm glad I didn't have to pick up a gun. I'm glad I didn't get killed or kill somebody. I hope my kids enjoy the same lack of manhood."
-Tom Hanks

...Sorry Mr. Hanks but you would suck in eRep because of this...



Comic of the Day:


Optical Illusion of the Day:


"Do you see anything?" "Neighhh"

What's Going On:

1.Zombies Go Wild In Spain!


It appears that only the Brazilians know to aim for the head when fighting zombies. While it is sad that the US has lost all of its Spanish regions but one, some may be cheered up to know that the Spanish magazine, "ZombieHouse" has released another issue. This one's cover girl is slightly less appealing: The editors must have forgot about the effects of decay when they came up with the magazine.



2.British Still Missing


The British disappeared a few days ago and have not been seen...anywhere. This has prompted many to wonder if aliens were involved. Anonymously, a Brit lover began a campaign to try to find the Brits. The results:


If you find them you can contact the French, Canadians, or the Irish.

3.Defending the Boot


Italy is still attempting to boot Croatia out of the last peninsular region. The R. of Macedonia also wants in on the boot and is attempting to capture one of Italy's southern regions.

4.One Reason Not To Ally With Serbia:


Their power is slipping, we do not need to be their crutch. 'Nuff said?

5.A Flat Tire's a Bitch


You think a flat's a bitch? Imagine a wooden wheel breaking on you. The Polish obviously didn't put much thought into this when they decided to use Conestoga Wagons for their 'Westward, Ho!' expedition. Due to this lack of foreskin, err I mean foresight, the Polish expansive efforts to the west have come to a halt. In fact, much like the American western settlers, the Polish have come under attack while trying to repair their wheels. However, instead of being attacked by savages they're being attacked by Germans. Wait...Germans are also savages.
*No offense meant, lulz only*

And I think that about wraps this edition up. Don't forget to vote, subscribe if you haven't already, and enter the contest!!! Happy Saturday All!
