On this day in 1979, Robert Ben Madison in Milwaukee did what we all have wanted to do: go off the deep end and start his own country.
By the luck of the ages, this little country has endured, and while Ben is no longer with us in Talossa (but is still very much alive), his legacy endures, and it has fallen to us to ensure its enduring for many years to come.
Happy day and happy holidays, all! Talossa has endured, and I look forward to, forty years hence or more, happening onto Witt and seeing things still going strong.

I wish J. Woolley would remember that he's King of Talossa sufficiently quickly to give a Speech from the Throne on time

Sigh. I am more than aware of the Speech from the Throne. Unforeseen circumstances (i.e. a daughter-in-law who had to use the computer all day long for work, granddaughters who needed baby-sitting, etc.) precluded my finishing it on time. I shall try to get it done today, and post it. Apologies, but life impinges sometimes.

Also, if I recall from not so long ago, we discovered time travel is possible in Talossa! I’ll warm up the machine!

Not only is time travel possible here in Talossa, it is often not needed: remember that the (un)official length of a Talossan day is fifty hours and two seconds - this causes overlaps between days, but - hey! - this is our wonderfully eccentric Talossa!
