All gone to look for America


Since this week's run is number 1492, the hares have offered a special prize for anyone who manages to discover America during the run.
The prize will be the right to occupy this valuable piece of real estate and thereafter to dominate the rest of the world and impose YOUR ideas on everybody else irrespective of the fact that the rest of the world may not actually agree with you.
The discoverer of America should not be put off by the fact that they may find America to be already occupied. The hares have conducted an extensive recce of the area and can assure the discoverer that the current occupants are either a bunch of mindless uncivilized savages or alternatively are a large herd of buffaloes (or both).
Have fun!

  1. Aw, you're just jealous you weren't around when Britain was on top. You know, like two centuries ago.

    (Don't tell the U.S. but its day is well over too. Excellent piece here:)

  2. Beaver gets neutered. Beginning with its April/May issue, the Winnipeg-based bimonthly, which has been called The Beaver for the past 90 years and has an estimated 150,000 readers, will be named Canada's History, its publisher announced on Tuesday. -- The Globe and Mail

    is this something we should worry about?

  3. It's true, I'm considering neutering. Just too dangerous to still be shooting live ammo at this age.
