Absolutely! And this (and especially conculture)
are proper venues for such!

A challenge especially for those of us whose eyes
water at the thought of politics. Personally, I'd
rather have teeth pulled than do politics.

But I did have some fun playing the part of the
Floridian dicator in Ill Bethisad early the year.

Well, I told thee langsyne, get that new auxPrufe
Industries coat! It's very comfy and can
withstand a tetradirectional blastoflame for more
than six hours and is quite resistant to Godwin
Bombs and Throckmorton Incisorisors. Tha'd do
well to invest in one!

Ah, charatheck et vrazeor! You could have
survived there for any length of time in an
