Well, she and her husband wanted a perpetual government.

Someone can be president twice in a row and then you need to wait a presidential period in order to postulate yourself.

Their initial plan was to swap each other in power. They had allready 4 out of 9 members of the Supreme Court in their pocket so they could even use fraud to ensure it.

Luckily for us, the husband (and previous president) died. But there's no official cause, no authopsy and the casket was closed all the time.

So does that mean that these experts will look at a box of GW miniatures and possibly value it less than listed price?

"He paid how much for these?!?!?!"

I thought GW products caught enough flak on the internet.

This is great reading. Threads like this are why I actually wade into the off-topic forum from time to time.

Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!

It is a bit depressing though... And it majorly sucks for our Argentinian Dakkanaughts....

And pretty much everyone else in Argentina too, it seems...

Not to worry Dark, the population of Dakka shall organise an airdrop of supplies for you and all the gamers in Argentina. It shall consist of 40K, Warmahordes, and nything else you mention.
This will be followed by a stealth insertation of Dakkanaughts, led by MattyRM and including myself, and a battalion of cat ninjas. Our objective shall be to assassinate their military leaders and pave the way for Frazzleds ground assault by his legions of Wiener dogs.
We shall join up and storm the fortress, whilst spreading the word of the hobby to all the poor innocents we see, and force your leaders to surrender to us. Then we shall seat you in the power and help stabalize your rule.

Back OT, Good luck.

Free from GW's tyranny and the hobby is looking better for it

Anyway, is this only for personal mail, or will this also effect retailers, etc importing goods for sale domestically? Because if its the latter, then yeah, say goodbye to wargaming and quality of life in general, because theres about to be a general shortage of everything... if its personal, then wargaming won't die (unless purchasing domestically becomes prohibitively expensive), you'll just have to buy locally.

And this kind of things are what our current president calls “deepen the (political/ideological) model”[/color]


The lower classes and the infraclass spend most of their income in first-need products, usually locally produced perishables.
The middle class sometimes buys imported luxury goods. With internet access, some buy online.
The higher class takes a jet to Europe or the States and do their shopping there.

Thank you peronists for furthering class gaps.

And still many in the Spanish left cheer Cristina Fernandez's every move. If narrowsighted, provincial nationalism and regressive economics are all this "next generation socialism" has to offer, sorry pals but I'm no longer a socialist.

Ok, this thread isn't about the Falklands.

Lets not sour a useful discussion on gaming imports by raising factional differences where not needed.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.
