This is a riot... or at least a good chuckle.

The enjoyable thing about the internet is you can find some great stuff.  This was cute.







The idealism, youthfulness, and ambition of this reminds me of being on a bus to San Fran talking to this young marxists who talked about the Revolution of 92.  And my best friend and I looked at each other--I was thinking to myself, hmmm somewhere in South America?

I finally stopped them and asked---uh which revolution?

"Oh, the uprising in LA after the Rodney King verdict."

Oh, the riots.  Yeah.  That wasn't a revolution that was a riot.

This is a riot as well... or at least will give you a good chuckle.  Just skip some of the pre-industrial revolution folk-lore that many people have about how government could/would work in a modern complex society of biological entities whom come to the table with different capacities, capabilities, and skill sets.

But at least they are trying.
