  • Election Party: As is good tradition in Texas there was held a wild and overflowing Election Party. This trimester we were happy to being served a wide assortment of Texan and German Beer, freshly made Fajitas, mountains of Doughnuts and a Whole Lotta Love by Led Zepplin themselves. As of now the underpaid workers are still trying to pick up the trash and remnants over a week later...
    
    
  • F799:
    Leadership issues within the Nation of Secretatry of Defense seem to be finally resolved. In an unprecedented act the acclaimed daughter and heir to Pharaoh Ben Nimajne was pulled out of someones sleeve and was presented to the people of F799. There was appearently instant acceptance of Emily Nim, Goddess of Nimajnism and Divine Protector of the Ninean People. We are not entirely sure yet what happened to Pharaoh Ben as there was no further news from F799 regarding his whereabouts. Rumour has it that the ex-leader is living in exile in a different Texan nation but no confirmation of this could be had.
