All right then, that's allowed! Talking about the greatest omnipotent

Super-mega-uber-evil would be more like it, but it sounds too silly and thus 
undermines the evil bit. Alternatively we could add e's to the eeeevil. But then 
we'd enter Wrath of KAAAAAAAAAAAHN!!!-territory and get discussions about the 
correct number of letters.

Hmmm, how would one add more e's in Chinese characters, since we should address 
Reinder in his new native tongue.

I have no idea and I am not sure whether I can even type them. I never 
tried.

If no solution is found, we should just stop addressing him and not talk 
to him at all.

That's like going totally Chinese government on his ass. Hmmm, I think he'd

Of course reinder has an amazing ass, but I seriously doubt that the 
Chinese government would fit in it. But I'd be willing to try.

I believe they have a vaccin for it these days, but parliament is

It's really quite simple. For now, you only get one shot. Only people over 6 
months and up to 4 years get a shot by the GGD. Unless they haven't been born 
yet. In that case their mother gets a shot if she's been pregnant for 14 weeks, 
by her regular physician. Physicians are not allowed to give the 6 month to 4 
year olds any shots, if they do so they get in trouble with the government and 
the kids may not be able to receive their second shot from the GGD. Regular flu 
shots have been postponed as not to clash with the second vaccine shot.

People with high risk factors, like being near death, or over 60 as the 
government calls it, also get their shots from their physicians. If you happen 
to have a lot of contact with sick people you need to get a shot from your 
physician. If you have a child under the age of 6 months you need to get a shot 
from the GGD, but only if you live in the same house as the child. Grannies that 
aren't 60 yet and do not live in the same house as the child do not get a shot 
and can't care for their grandchild anymore. If you work in a hospital or 
similar health care, you get a shot by the company doctor.

If you play footbal for AZ, you get a shot and a slap on the wrist because you 
shouldn't have gotten that shot. You are also obliged to send flowers to the 
people that are going to die because you stole their shot. Your physician will 
be investigated by the government, who'll promptly forget the whole thing ever 
happened. This is possibly because of AZ's sponsor DSB Bank's demise, the 
biggest flu victim yet.

If you have an allergy to chicken egg egg white you're out of luck. The vaccine 
used is made with eggs. So even if you're 14 weeks pregnant and work in health 
care, no vaccine for you. Which is probably okay since probably the highest 
number of people that refuse to get vaccinated are mothers to be that work in 
health care. They tend to put their trust into homeopathy or faith healers.

I couldn't quite find out of teenagers have been marked as a high risk group, 
since they have had a couple of deadly victims. But I'm sure that's only a minor 
oversight.

Simple, right?

Actually the number of people infected started shrinking before the vaccinations 
started. I suppose you may expect that from a Mexican flu. Unlike the normal 
one, this one seems to actually get less active as it gets colder. By the next 
summer it could mutate enough to defeat current vaccinations.

Of course, until then we can concentrate on Q fever. You know, the disease 
that's been leaping from goats to people for the last 2 years and only now - 
after thousands infected - gets noticed by politicians. You don't even need to 
have direct contact with goats. It's spread by goats, but the actual bacteria 
travel through the air in spring thanks to pregnant goats getting spontaneous 
abortions caused by the disease. I actually got a letter by the government today 
concerning the infected farm in my area.

You can still get shot at the airport, just shout you've got a bomb on you. 
Shouting "I wanna sail around the world" only gets you arrested. You do have to 
be a 16 year old blond girl in that case, but that's not a problem for an 
omnipotent dictator.

This is all part of some sort of conspiracy to make people believe 
Gandalf is actually evil. I bet the Q fever doesn't even exist.

But what if it does exist? And the letter is actually a double bluff? By sending 
the letter the people that don't trust the government will not believe the 
Q-fever exists. They then catch the Q and die a horrible death. Or are taken 
away by men in black.

Well, let's wait and see. You just have to pretend you don't trust the 
government or believe the Q-fever exists. If they do come for you, we 
switch to plan B!

One 20 and one 23 year old. I believe that is legal!

Plan B? There's a plan B? Why didn't we go with plan B from the start? And what 
does this plan B entail anyway?

I think we should ramp up our plan making. I mean, they're already up to the 
letter Q with the fever thing, we're only just getting to B with the plans. We 
at least need a back up back up plan in case the back up plan gets backed up. 
Anyone wanna back me up on that?

I can't tell you because plan B is encrypted and the decryption key 
will only become available when plan A fails, so that is when the 
government does come for you. I've heard they're thinking about these 
house checks that you cannot refuse, so perhaps we won't have to wait 
that long.

All right, do you have some external hard drive for our back-ups?
Also, I would like to propose switching to Chinese characters to 
number our plans. So it won't be plan B anymore, but plan 猫 or 
plan 狗 for example. This way we won't easily run out of possible 
plans to create and as such will ensure our victory once the 
government gets to Plan Z.

Holy? I am not holy at all. And I also don't like matrimony or other 
such strange ideas deemed socially acceptable by some people.

What? Encrypted keys? Like that DRM cafuffle where they didn't e-mail the 
encryption key to the cinemas? Like that's gonna work.

And why would they need to enter to check if I've got a house. It's quite clear 
to see that there's a house from the outside. Have you got a link to that?

Back-up drive, check! It's got the letter O: I think. Or was it M:? I'd have to 
turn it on and see, but I can't be bothered right now.

Maybe we should try and make a plan to find out what this plan Z means. Maybe 
it's just a plan to break the alphabet ceiling and get beyond the letter Z. 
Maybe like AA, AB, AC or A1, A2 and so on.

I only have a 4096-bit RSA key actually. I wonder whether it's strong 
enough. Perhaps we should consider ROT-13, which the Dutch government 
certainly won't be able to crack.

How is that clear? It could be just a front!! Who says that behind the 
front wall, there is really a real house as opposed to a fake house?? 
And yes, I had a link but that's blocked here in China.

It might be a could idea to write the appropiate letter on all of your 
drives so that you won't have to turn them on to check which letter it 
is.

They wouldn't even dare try a ROT-13. Rot is a word that to some is considered a 
swear word (especially in combination with the word op) and 13 is just plain 
unlucky.

But what if you have a fully functional house? If somebody decides to sit on top 
of it, does it become a stool? I mean, if a house needs to be completed to be 
considered a house, then does it not actually have to be purposed as one also? 
So a house ceases to be a house when nobody is in it, since the function of a 
house is to provide shelter. A house with nobody inside does not provide 
shelter, nor does a partially built house, even if someone is inside.

So the only way to make sure a house is a house is by having someone put inside 
and then bricking up the doors and windows so there's no escape for its 
inhabitant. Only one problem, if the inhabitant ceases to be, it becomes an 
ex-occupant. So the house isn't a house anymore. It becomes a coffin.

So it becomes impossible to see the difference between a house and a coffin, 
unless you open it, in which case it's neither. Schrödinger's house, so to speak.

There's a problem with that logic. Removable drives are just that: removable. 
Their main purpose is to remove them and connect them to a different computer. 
On that computer they may be designated a different drive letter. They may even 
get different letters on the same computer depending on what USB-port you 
connect them with.

It would be rather silly to have a big f-ing F: on a drive while it's actually 
drive U:.

They don't have to be smart enough to understand it to randomly come up with it. 
As a matter of fact it fits quite nicely with the kind of administrative 
decision that gets made and after a few months nobody remembers why one does it 
that way and after a year or so the system will be so messed up it becomes an 
entity of its own. Nobody understands and therefore nobody will challenge the 
system. That system takes over peoples lives. They start thinking it is so grand 
and mysterious it must be a supreme being with mysterious ways. Anyway: you get 
the picture. Oh, sorry, no graphical interface.
