Angela Merkel leads the Prussian invasion of Venice


Saxony Line I-XII

Already we have the twelfth experience on the pure consciousness expereince that is the Saxony Line. Incredible. Last time we talked about the ruination of the Great Wall and the possibility of Venice sinking into the ocean just in time for the Mayan Doomsday to drop the boom on all of us. Since we're concerned about Venice we thought we'd might take a gander at what was going on over there these days. So we started to do our normal research methodology that I won't share for proprietary reasons. But we got all confused.

We began reading from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazeette about how the Italian ingenuity had spoiled August von Mackensen and his war machine from capturing the "wonder" city of the world. A number of gates had been opened to let a few rivers flood creating a 12 mile triangle of water that would be difficult to pass quickly through. In the meantime French troops were marching quickly down to aid their besieged ally. We thought we had missed something somewhere and that war had broken out unbeknownst to us.

We figured that Silvio Berlusconi had held a bunga-bunga in the Doge's palace where he had poisoned Mario Monti, the technocratic mastermind that will hopefully save Italy (and thus, my portfolio) from a Greek tragedy. Having poisoned Monti, Berlusconi had then taken back power in a ruthless coup that would have made the Participazio family proud. Fed up with all the southern nonsense Kaiser Merkel decided to simply occupy Italy for the time being to restore some good old fashioned Prussian order. Nicolas Sarkozy would have gone along with the deal but Marine Le Pen would have none of it and started down towards venice with goose-stepping militias in tow.

Thankfully though, we realized that the paper had been published on November 17, 1917. We were relieved when we figured that out. So Venice is fine. But, Venice is sinking into the ocean. Go now.
