If I may, the issue is entirely with me. The email address does exist but I was having trouble with the password change setting. I completely forgot about this and I sincerely apologize.  This one has nothing to do with my government. Please PM me an email address I can send login instructions to.

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on July 24, 2026, 11:47:03 PMThis is an ironic conversation, because Zappa's book contains a chapter in which he discusses a theory that beer (as opposed to other forms of alcohol) somehow causes "violent male bonding". In his own idiom: "whiskey might make you want to kill your girlfriend, but beer makes you want to do it with your buddies watching".

I love a good scotch but it's never made me want to kill anything :-)

"Every major industrialized nation has A BEER (you can't be a Real Country unless you have A BEER and an airline—it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need A BEER."



1999 (1989 copyright), The Real Frank Zappa Book, by Frank Zappa with Peter Occhiogrosso, Section: Introduction, Quote Page 9, A Touchstone Book: Simon & Schuster, New York. (Verified on paper in 1999 reprint edition; originally published in 1989 by Poseidon Press, New York) ↩�

Some company decades ago made some beer with Zappa album covers as the labels. I still have the bottle with the Lumpy Gravy album cover on it. Don't recall if the beer was any good. (I'm a huge Zappa fan.)
I was gifted a beer brewing kit by a family member for Christmas one time. It was too complicated for me, so I turned it into a wine making kit. Wine is way easier to make. The wine that I eventually made was actually pretty tasty, but the alcohol content was over the top. After one night of sampling my home made wine, my wife dumped the rest down the toilet, and threatened to leave me if I ever made wine again. I don't remember much about that night. But I imagine I was having a good time.

That's so funny Sir Iason.

We are a few years away from our fiftieth anniversary as a country.  Very few nations of our size make it to such a point, and I think we should try to think ahead and plan something big for that event (26 Dec 2029).

I call for His Majesty to establish a Royal Commission on the subject, intended to span the time up until that point.  I believe His Grace should chair the commission himself, if he is so willing, since it's a perfect role for our term-spanning head of state.  I hope that other party leaders of good character are willing to join or delegate others to the commission.

@King Txec , what do you think?

Great idea. I'll give it some thought as to how best to structure a Royal Commission.

Quote from: Moses Henry Emefiele on July 02, 2026, 04:20:14 AMGood day to you. I would like to know which day I will receive my Citizenship?

I have already pass the questioner of the ID Card. And I have apply for ID Card, I would like to know that they will send me both Citizenship Certificate and ID Card to my Address in Nigeria.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Yours truly,
Moses Henry Emefiele.

Moses, asking the same question multiple times is a bit rude. Talossa doesn't issue certificates of citizenship, and once you receive an ID card, it cannot be used as official identification.

Additionally, you are already a citizen. I'd also advise you not to jump around between political parties, because then people will take you less seriously.

And I think I'm the only person with three IDs...

Congratulations Sir Iason. Talossa is richer for your presence. I have two IDs myself.
