The West PacificBoard

Had a spill down some carpeted chairs wearing socks, got a baseball for an ankle, crutches for 6 weeks and traveling back to AZ this morning. :(

Black Moon - ELP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hix6vUVSVHI

Everyday I see a new cloud coming
There's one more hole in space
Everytime I walk across the street
I feel the gas blowing in my face
We never learn even deserts burn
And all politicians lie
They won't do nothin'
'Till we reach high noon
Black Moon

Ain't nobody gonna walk on water
When it falls like acid rain
Nobody gonna fake you out
Every poison stains
We're all stuck here
Right in the middle
We never call the tune
We don't get active
We become immune
Black Moon

In the night see the red sky burning
There's fire on the mountain
Oil slicks on the sea
Black Moon is rising
How long will it be

Just take a look around the world
The future never waits
We're skating on the thin ice
And we're in the hands of fate
What we need's a little re-direction
To find our blue lagoon
You know it wouldn't come
A moment to soon
Black Moon
Black Moon

A Day in the House - Jeff Beck
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrZNrHUtO-8

My Lords I call to order
On the issue of the environment
Nothing is being done

My lords we can't keep dancing along
Pretending everything is just fine
The consequences are devastating
We must strike out and rescue this
Fine earth upon which we live
Mother nature as suffered far too long and quite enough
What's she been said my lords
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
I repeat nothing nothing nothing is being done

Order
Order

Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done

I suggest that the floor be passed to Mr. Beck

Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done

My Lords

My Lords

The consequences are devastating

Much is being said my Lords
But nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done
Nothing is being done

Badger, which way are you thinking of going on the statelessness resolution? The Gestapo thing seems a reference to an older resolution.

Thanks for asking, I have been waiting for Badger to weigh in!

For future reference, WA matters are discussed on our forum: http://www.westpacific.org/forums/index.php?/topic/2017-at-vote-reducing-statelessness/#comment-49991

These discussions are open to any nation.

Our WA minister Bhang Bhang Duc has recommended a "for" vote. However it has been brought up that there could be a vocabulary error in the resolution. At this time I am waiting for more comment.

Generally speaking, I subscribe to the philosophy that every resolution should be voted down. Except for repeals, which should be voted for.

Your Time is Gonna Come - Led Zeppelin (with lyrics)

Led Zeppelin - The Lemon Song

I should have quit you long time ago
Yeah long time ago.
Oh yeah long time ago.
I wouldn't be here my children
Down on this killin' floor.

I should have listened baby to my second mind X2
Every time I go away and leave you darling
You send me the blues way down the line.
Babe treat me right baby oh my my my
People tellin' me baby can't be satisfied;
They try to worry me baby
But they never hurt you in my eyes.
Said, people worry I can't keep you satisfied.

Let me tell you baby,
You ain't nothin' but a two-bit, no-good jive.
Went to sleep last night, worked as hard as I can,
Bring home my money, you take my money, give it to another man;
I should have quit you, baby, such a long time ago,
I wouldn't be here with all my troubles
Down on this killing floor.

Squeeze me baby, till the juice runs down my leg, X2
The way you squeeze my lemon,
I..I'm gonna fall right out of bed, yeah.
Hey! (conversation between Robert Plant & guitar)
Baby baby baby...
I'm gonna leave my children down on this killin' floor

Why do you adhere to that general philosophy of downvoting resolutions and voting positively on repeals? Resolutions are quite dense to read through as a newbie but I would love to learn more.

Not meaning to speak for anyone else.....from my POV, most resolutions infringe on a nation's sovereignty in one form or another. So most are to be voted against, and those that pass to be repealed. This is not always the case, but in most cases, yes.

Too Old To Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young To Die - Jethro Tull
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rwn0R1PFUwU

The old Rocker wore his hair too long,
wore his trouser cuffs too tight.
Unfashionable to the end --- drank his ale too light.
Death's head belt buckle --- yesterday's dreams ---
the transport caf' prophet of doom.
Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams
in his post-war-babe gloom.

Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.

He once owned a Harley Davidson and a Triumph Bonneville.
Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
and prays that he always will.
But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys
all of his mates are doing time:
married with three kids up by the ring road
sold their souls straight down the line.
And some of them own little sports cars
and meet at the tennis club do's.
For drinks on a Sunday --- work on Monday.
They've thrown away their blue suede shoes.

Now they're too old to Rock'n'Roll and they're too young to die.

So the old Rocker gets out his bike
to make a ton before he takes his leave.
Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
just like it used to be.
And as he flies --- tears in his eyes ---
his wind-whipped words echo the final take
and he hits the trunk road doing around 120
with no room left to brake.

And he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he was too young to die.
No, you're never too old to Rock'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
