when will the budget be signed?

It will get signed sooner or later. Always has. Always will.

Time and Date people!


easy peasy


Please note. I pick the prize, not you. It will not be a pizza or an asshook. It will be personal and cool. It will be made with love and craftsmanship.

We last had one signed in 2015, after years of CRs in lieu of.
 
A word on the "will of the people".

Your polls are bullshit because they're based on a perception promoted by the left that we're only talking about the 800,000 Daca children who ohave registered, there are in fact 3.5 million brought here when they were under the age of 18 who would be included in a democrat proposal. When you couple that number with the chain migration of family members Democrats will want to include you're talking about millions more. No majority is in favor of full on amnesty and citizenship for those kinds of numbers. So get a clue.

All you had to do was pull a BB and yell "Fake news!"

Okay. My bad.


The contest is choosing the closet time and date of when the US federal government is no longer in shutdown mode.

I am sorry for the confusion. If any of you want to resubmit your time and dates make it happen.
 
Who is in charge of the spreadsheet, Pete?

Yes. The details. If this thread ends on page 2 it should be easy enough to scan for the winner. If the shutdown lasts for decades we might have to step up the tech.

I am the one in charge here. Unless Laurel hits me with the ban hammer in which case one of my alts will be in charge here.

Systemantics teaches that all systems operate in failure mode -- they either fail or will soon. With our current governmental configuration, USA could remain in shutdown mode for a very long time. The system has crashed, folks. Grab your bitcoins.

Possibilities:

* USA goes into default. Tromp is experienced with defaults.
* Tromp order agencies closed-up. He's overseen many closures.
* Tromp declares emergency, dissolves Congress, orders new elections.
* Invading troops from Duchy of Grand Fenwick occupy DC, hang Tromp.
* Dums capitulate. Tromp takes scalps, pounds chest, roars.
* Gups implode. Tromp declares emergency, nukes DPRK.
* ET aliens land. None of this matters anymore.

Or an agreement could be reached but I doubt it.

I actually know of a real place named Fenwick. Tho it's not a Duchy, and it's Grandness is debatable, I wouldn't mess with the folks that live there.
 
I have a certain attachment to my Fenwick fly rod.
I hope it's a genuine Fenwick and not a counterfeit Enwick. A war could start over that.

January 31st at 8:26AM is the moment of the Blue Moon.
You're a decade early. Check back in January 2028. Pres Ivanka Kushner will be close to a deal. Or Pres Chelsea Mezvinsky. Or Pres Chelsea Manning. Or the robo-president installed by Samsung. Eventually, someone will produce a federal budget. Probably.
 
Not the third Saturday? I mean really, if there ought to be a day of the week I think a third Saturday would be right up there. Beats the hell out of the second Monday. :eek::eek::eek:

Sound logic. Lets make this happen.

No, it’s this month, and there will also be a lunar eclipse.
 
There are a number of guesses that could be close if the G opens back up tonight.

Only time will tell.

Choices after this post will receive something much less cool and much less fitting.
