I have a planet. Well, not yet but it is out there. We call it Nay-tash. It sits on Kepler 22b which is said to be a similar planet to Earth in another solar system. It's about 4 times bigger than our planet and has way more water but I think we can do it. When we're able to travel to it, which will take about 600 lightyears to get there, I'll be packed and ready to go. Of course, we'll have to freeze ourselves for part of the journey. I figure we'll make a few stops along the way though, stretch our legs, meet the neighbors and such.
Not everyone will be able to go. Sorry. There is a tight list. Of course, I will be ruler of planet Nay-tash. Duh. I already have a counsil with whom I meet and discuss various matters with pertaining to our new home. Nay-tash will be a place where we will all work together to build our community and everyone will be placed in occupations based on performance and desire. The lack of a degree will not matter on planet Nay-tash. If you do it well, you have the job. And all salaries will be equal. There will be no jails there. If you commit a crime, the counsil will decide if it is punishable. On that note: all crimes are punishable. Punishment will mean banishment. Probably to a remote place on the planet equivalent to the North Pole where you will be left to fend for yourself. We may set up cameras to watch you as you slowly perish. Harsh I guess, but a deterrant of criminal activity, don't you think?
I'm really hoping there's already a city built there. Kind of like on Stargate Atlantis. Just so that we don't have to start from scratch. Abandoned would be good but an already inhabited city could be dealt with. I rule under the 'you're either with me or against me' frame of mind so dealing with natives will be relatively easy.
I'm over this planet. It's become too complicated with its ever changing rules and technologies. I mean, Facebook alone has changed its profile pages at least 4 times in the last 5 years and if we've learned anything from that, it's that newer is not necessarily better. Planet Nay-tash will be kept simple: supplied with what is needed not with things that are wanted.
I'm really excited about our new venture. We have the plans and ideas now all we need is a spaceship and maybe a google map of directions to Kepler 22b. My birthday IS coming up....just putting it out there.....
