Tigger-Growlia Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The Grand Duchy of Tigger-Growlia would like to formally introduce itself to the Region of Europa. We are very much a bouncy sort of folk but we love to spend our Stripes. Â I would like to open our Honey business (just don't tell a certain bear) to all foreign investors that are willing to take a risk that we won't nationalize all of the infrastructure you build in our country on a yearly basis...not that it's happened before...yes...errr.... Â BOING! Â We are a peaceful sort and a fine upstanding group of Tiggers but I'm sorry that we do not allow immigration or emmigration of any sort. Â We are also white-collar sorts of Tiggers and are looking for a willing nation that is strugling economically to host our bio-engineering facilities....don't worry about that green smoke and glowing three eyed animals nearby that's just for show to keep the corporate competitors away. The facilities are very safe and very clean! Â SPROING! Â So please stop on by for a 48 hour visit to our stunningly beautiful 100 Acre Wood. Just don't pick any flowers...or....errr....you'll be shot by our security advisor who is actually an annoying little pig with serious insecurity issues that he compensates with by carrying a BFG2000 around him. Â Have a lovely Bouncy day! Â The Grand Duke of all that is bouncy, boingy, sproingy or just plain fun, Duke Tigger Link to comment
Ide Jima Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 ... Welcome! Keep the bear!!!! Link to comment
Pirilao Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Ol?, Tigger-Growlia You write Portuguese? Best Regards Link to comment
Tigger-Growlia Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 Ola Pirilao and all other visiting diplomats, Â I speak fluent English, good German and a smattering of Spanish and French but sadly no Portuguese. However; Tiggers being the wonderfully resourceful and most spec-spec-spectacularly learned creatures that we are would like to encourage you to speak in your native lingo to us. We have employed the resources of the most wonderous things known as the Babelfish which can translate any Europa language (excluding slang) for us. So chat away in whatever manner you feel to us Tiggers! Â BOING! Â Since the Polls are currently leaning towards Tigger-Growlia keeping the bear, we would like announce coming legislation that will set aside forrested areas in Tigger-Growlia in which both bears and honey can live peacefully alike. Â SPROING! (sorry even Tigger-Growlia diplomats can't stay still wooohoohoo) Â We would like to ask if any aspiring nations have given thought to our biotech labs proposal? We have learned not only to clone the physical genetic code of woodland animals (for preservation and breeding programes) but also we have successfully decoded the cognitive genes which means we can clone and alter traits. In order to successfully test this research we need labs that um...aren't on our national soil. For...investment reasons... Â BOUNCE! Â We would also like to formally announce our intention to catalogue and release the genetic information on every living species within the Europa region. We will be sending a mission of scientists to your lands shortly with test tubes and swabs in hand. Please allow them access as we will then release all of this information back to yourselfs. Â And as always, have the bounciest of days, Â The Grand Duke of all that is bouncy, boingy, sproingy or just plain fun, Duke Tigger Link to comment

Tigger-Growlia Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 Indeed Scipii the wonders of the babelfish even allow us to translate Welsh! Link to comment
Europa Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Welcome to the region. I like your flag.. it suits your country rather well. Â Â Â PS: sorry to disapoint you, but Babelfish does not translate text into Welsh.. Link to comment
Tigger-Growlia Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 My arse it does  What a kind, productive and well thought out comment! We in Tigger-Growlia appreciate considered answers such as this!  For your information though I linked to google's translator for ease, I was referring to the wonderous Babelfish from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy which can translate any language. My grand apologies on Google's behalf that it left out the great Celtic language of Welsh.  I actually used this site -'M asen gwna.  Salutations, Duke Tigger   Link to comment
Scipii Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 You will find that all my answers are measured and to the point. Â Â Not the greatest translator site btw Link to comment
