Guest Incandenza Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Maximum Proconsul Kotzenjunge, when can I expect a copy of the script for Triumph of the Will 2011? May a copy be faxed to me over here in Italy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Well, the Ministry of Propaganda is still writing it up, so ask massivHEDtrauma about that. I'm trying not to do the work of every Ministry ever since I accidentally snubbed the Ministry of Justice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kinetic Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Greetings from Rome, All is now well between myself and Celebrity of the State Incadenza. We discussed our confrontation over cappuccino near the Hote Laurentia, where the spirit his comments were made in was made clearer to me. No women accompanied us; we were thrust into opposition by our very nature as men and we laid to rest our petty disagreements as men. I must admit, having never looked at him with an objective eye prior to this, that our Celebrity of the State is quite striking. I briefly considered trading hair-maintenance tips with him before thinking better of it. In any case, no dispute remains and unity is now restored in the Abbey Party. Onto more pressing matters: Chelsea and I had a marvelous time at the ball last evening. She appeared a true vision of heaven, bedecked from head to toe in white silk. I also appeared quite dapper, if I may be allowed to say so, in my finest Armani suit--the centerpiece of which is the Abbey Party symbol emblazoned on the breast pocket. We danced to tasteful and restrained musical compositions for hours. Chelsea is a truly accomplished dancer, though even she must stand in awe of my inimitable Triple Skidoo style. When the ball ended and we poured out onto the street, she gripped my arm and I knew that my lady and I would lie together that very evening. Still I went to greater lengths in seeking her further affection, partaking in all manner of whimsical twirling and spontaneous rose-purchasing on our way to the plush hotel room where our love affair would come to fruition. As we reached the door, she took hold of my waist and kissed me violently. None of the many delights I've enjoyed as Assistant Proconsul of this great State had prepared me for the joy of my lady's embrace. I somewhat weakly pushed open the heavy wooden door and allowed Chelsea to lead me to our bed. Not yet satisfied, however, I allowed her to disrobe as I sought out my acoustic guitar. Seeing my lady in her natural state, eager for me to accompany her, I played perhaps my most inspired rendition of Leonard Cohen's "Take This Longing," the lyrics to which I will post now: Many men have loved the bells you fastened to the reign And every one who wanted you they found what they will always want again Your beauty lost to yourself just as it was lost to them Oh take this longing from my tongue and all the useless things these hands have done Let me see your beauty broken down like you would do for one you loved. Your body like a searchlight my poverty revealed I would like to try your charity until you cry, Now you must try my greed And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me just take this longing from my tongue and all the lonely things my hands have done Let me see your beauty broken down like you would do for one you love. Hungry as an archway though which the troops have passed I stand in ruins behind you With your winter clothes your broken sandal straps I love to see you naked over there especially from the back Oh take this longing from my tongue and all the useless things my hands have done Untie for me your hired blue gown like you would do for one you love. You're faithful to the better man I'm afraid that he left So let me judge your love affair in this very room where I have sentenced mine to death I'll never wear these old laurel leaves that he's shaken from his head just take this longing from my tongue and all the useless things my hands have done Let me see your beauty broken down like you would do for one you love. When I completed my song, Chelsea lovingly embraced me and things soon escalated. I'm not one to kiss and tell, however. What happened behind closed doors shall remain there. My lady and I awoke intertwined in the morn. I departed for official business, which included meeting Incadenza and various other duties of the Assistant Proconsul. She and I will attend a gala for olive oil awareness this evening, however, and I intend to gather information on the ever-lingering mobs of Italy, which I consider something of a threat to the State's power in this region. I shall return with another correspondence then before returning to my post Saturday evening to give my address. Sincerely, Assistant Proconsul Kinetic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 "No one ever listens to me around here. I might as well be a Leonard Cohen album." -- Neil the Hippie on The Young Ones He was WRONG! Kinetic does! Oh yes, the suit with our symbol? GOLD. Also, I'm glad to see that you are still working even when on a pleasure trip to consolidate the power of the State even further by investigating the Italian mobs. Kudos to you!

Guest Incandenza Report post Posted June 21, 2002 As Assistant Proconsul Kinetic has stated, he and I did indeed meet at the Laurentia, and everything between us has been settled (and, Mr. Kinetic, though I understand and respect your high position in the Party, I can never share my styling tips. Some things must remain secret.). Clearing the air with him was very important to me, and doing so has eased my mind. After meeting with the Asssistant Pronconsul last night, Monica and I had a quiet evening alone. We were a little sad that Kate had to leave--life in the movies can be a demanding business--but we knew we could still have a fun. And fun we had, as we made it a Blockbuster night, letting the world go by and Rome be Rome as we watched Half-Baked. Personally, I abhor the movie, but Monica loves it, and her laugh is most intoxicating. As I type this, Monica is packing her things for the trip to the State (I finished packing an hour ago, but you know how women are). I hope I can bring her along to tomorrow's convention. You see, though she resides in France, Monica Bellucci is a full-blooded Italian (as if her name did not make it obvious), and Fascism turns her on. Will see you at the convention, with or without Monica. Later, Incadenza Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest SupaTaft Report post Posted June 21, 2002 When the site changed, much valuable information was lost. Apparently I missed something. Did the Maximum Procousul take my idea of a convention and turn it into a reality? I feel highly honored that a simple soldiers' little idea was enough to spark the meeting of all the cabinet members. Allthough this is a time of great joy throughout all of the State of America and all of its conquered lands (including South America, the reason it took so long is because we had trouble finding cities in the dense jungle), the Minister of WAR!!! will not be in attendance. This saddens me beyond belief that my idea of having a grand meeting of the cabinet, will be darkened by my absence. I have a graduation party to attend and hay to stock in the barn earlier in the day. Unless the party is a flop (highly doubtful as the graduate is a semi-professional deejay) I cannot attend. But I may leave a little surprise for the cabinet and all in attendance. Hail the conquerer of South America, -SupaTaft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Well, parties do take precedence over Parties. In my mind anyway. Did I mention we're having a hedonistic Delta House-style party after the Convention? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Just write up an address and PM it to me. Make it a 5-10 minute speech. That's all. It isn't like you have to post at a certain time. I'm posting it all myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 How do you think I feel? I got up early to watch the US game (went to sleep at 4-something), then didn't fall asleep again until almost 12. I set my alarm for 2 so I could call my potential next girlfriend, but I wake up, look at my watch, and it says 4 FUCKING 40!!! Then I see that 90210 hasn't given up yet. Bad day so far.

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 21, 2002 Since no one pays attention when I post guidelines, a speech on what you have and hope to accomplish as Baron of Entertainment and stuff, in a 5-10 minute speech equivalent post.

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 22, 2002 A REMINDER FROM THE MAXIMUM PROCONSUL Deadlines for Convention Addresses(all are EST): 7:30 PM Saturday -- General Cabinet members 8:00 PM Saturday -- Chancellor Goodhelmet's Assessment of the State 8:30 PM Saturday -- First Lady BarelyThere speaks on, um... lady stuff. 9:30 PM Saturday -- Assistant Proconsul Kinetic Addresses the State 10:30 PM Saturday -- Maximum Proconsul's State of the State address and closing ceremonies. Send all speeches to me via PM. Make 'em the eqivalent of a 5-10 minute speech if you're General Cabinet or Chancellor Goodhelmet. The First Lady's is 10-15 minutes long. Assistant Proconsul's will be a similar length. Mine will be 15-20 minutes probably, a real doozy. I'll also write up the closing ceremonies and inter-speech activities. The actual Convention itself will begin around 9, since the Maximum Proconsul kinda has work until 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted June 23, 2002 It's 8:30, and I haven't gotten much in the way of speeches, so the Convention is postponed until tomorrow evening.
