Mario: (has just compleated inspection of the french Freighter Bateau De Tour) well Capitan you papers all seem to be in order.

Capitan Louis: of Course they are what do you expect some sort of Aberation?

Mario: one never knows in these days Capitan one never knows, just a week ago we captured a Zionist flaged freighter hauling chemicals into Egypt, no one never knows.

Capitan Louis: well you will see nothing like THAT from us we are honest Seamen my crew and I.

Mario: if you dont mind me asking Capitan i see part of your cargo is deliverd here the rest to france, what exactly is this special paper used for?

Capitan Louis: bah its for an art house what do I know why they would want Silk Paper.  I assume its for some painting project they are working on.

Mario: HA artists who can understand them.

Capitan Louis: agreed agreed

Mario: well the harbor pilot will be aboard shortly to guide you to the unloading peir, may the rest of your Voyage be safe.

1 hour later the unloading Peir.

Luigi: so Capitan i take it your voyage was uneventful?

Capitan Louis: we had one run in with Pirates on the trip but they were no match for Bateau De Tour, she isnt the fastest freighter around for nothing you know.

Luigi and the cargo, it is intact?

Capitan Louis: yes compleatly and deliverd erly i might add.

Luigi: yes i noted that, that is good the sooner we can start our project the happier my masters will be.

Capitan Louis: i know better than to ask but what exactly is this project?

Luigi: oh no great secret there a Printing of posters for the interior ministry (rustles around in his pocket pulling out a slip of paper which he passes to the capitan) I assume that will satisfy our agreement?

Capitan Louis: Most Deffinetly, if you ever have need of our services again.

Luigi: yes i know where to find you, but now I must be off fare well good capitan.

I see Italia is trying to drum up some population.  Interesting choice of picture, some will cry pornography, others hooray.

I do not think something you see every day at pretty much every café, a mother feeding her baby, can ever be considered pornography.

Move here.  We have some pretty vicious conservative groups who pretty much think '60s bathing suits are to revealing

Whats sad is it isnt the conservitives that are against breastfeading in public... its the liberals who view it as sexist and demeaning to Women.

Doubt that is a real liberal point of view, as for it to make sense you have to think that feeding babies is a sexually charged act. Personally i do not really see the point; there is nothing more controversial or charged about a mother feeding her baby then a man eating a ham sandwich.

Of course some would object to the sandwich being ham....

Players
   Gaius Julius Caeser   
   Gletrino Curtisio
   Theodore Roosevelt Jr.
   Lucius Cornelius Sulla

Location
   Altitude Base, Tunisia

Setting
   March 14th 1909 10:00 AM

Sulla: Ah gentlemen glad to see you are all here.  Young Mr. Roosevelt I assume the trip from Rome wasn't to strenuous for you, I personally find Traveling on one of the fast destroyers to be most unsettling.

Roosevelt: the trip wasn't too bad, However why all the Secrecy?

Sulla: that is a question better asked of Young Caeser and Mr. Curtisio, Gentlemen care to explain?

Caeser: Today we are conducting the first live munitions tests on the Falco, we were sure you would want to observe them sir, and as Mr. Roosevelt is here to learn about our Tactics, we thought it would be best to invite him as well.

Roosevelt: Falco, your testing a Falcon?

Caeser: not a Falcon THE Falcon, more correctly a flight of 6, with live munitions.  Come ill show you.

Leads them through a gate with a sign over it reading "Il cielo appartiene a noi, nessun può passare.", and down a dusty path.

Caeser: Gentlemen I present the Falco, she is the best of our Aviation at the moment.

Roosevelt: My God is that what I think it is, never mind of course it is.  Can I go closer to them?

Caeser: I don't see why not, perhaps after the test I can even arrange a ride for you. Mr. Curtisio any objections?

Curtisio: (with an evil smile on his face) of course, why bring the lad out here if he isn't allowed to look and touch.

Roosevelt: Lord they are far ahead of anything I ever saw when I traveled with my father, the engine looks awfully small, can it actually lift the load you have on it?

Curtisio: Yes they can and a bit more honestly.

Sulla: so how long until the tests gentlemen?

Caeser: we were only awaiting your and Mr. Roosevelt's arrival brother in-law.

Sulla: Outstanding, so let it begin.

Caeser: then ill depart from you here gentlemen, Mr. Crutisio you can see them to the observation range?

Curtisio: of course, watch the pressure #1 has been acting erratic.

Sulla: Wait what you will be flying with the test Julius?

Caeser: of course, and no my father doesn't know, lets not worry him more than we have to eh?

Sulla: agreed he isn't well these days, good luck Julius.  Mr. Curtisio if you would show us to the range.


3 hours later back at Altitude base


Roosevelt: Simply Amazing, I must get a report of this to my father.

Sulla: that's not all you will be sending him my boy we have made arrangements to ship the 6 aircraft awaiting delivery to the Confederate Navy grounds at LaPaz.

Roosevelt: How did you know about LaPaz, I thought no one was supposed to know what was going on there?

Sulla: I personally didn't until 3 days ago, However Italia always returns a Favor.  That is all that matters.

Hmmm... perhaps a certain dark-headed, pasta-eating janitor at La Paz should be getting a raise...
