The Bohemian State

State is typed with a capital ’S’ for two reasons:

a) It’s a Proper Noun

b) We take it very seriously.

We decided we needed to build a new world because currently none of the existing countries /divisions / borders meets our exacting requirements of what homeland should be like. I [hemlock] believe in absolute dictatorship, because left to their own devices, masses would end up wreaking havoc since most cant think beyond yesterday — and monologist subscribes to my dogmas (i think).

the rules:
are simple:-

1. we are trying to build utopia, be nice to each other. substance abuse is allowed / encouraged to help you abide by our laws.
2. we are a dictatorship, so anything you do or say is subject to editorial discretion [read: censorship].
3. you may be ridiculed, insulted, humiliated, embarrassed for no reason whatsoever, especially if you cannot justify to us your reason for being. alternatively, you may not be noticed at all. really, it’s really our call.
4. everything on the state is copyrighted, and every idea patented. you will be sued / tried under bohemian laws for non-compliance. getting inspiration is punishable by beheading - or electrocution.
5. TBS is a strictly no-go zone for:
   ALL oil companies (exemption available for those of venezuelan origin – contact admin for admission forms).
   MNCs - namely Coke, McDonalds, KFC, GE, Nokia, Nike & CitiBank.
   Economists & intellectuals - we DONT believe in free-trade, the invisible hand OR the supply demand curve, and them intellectuals make us look stupid.
6. Branding and Marketing is NOT allowed. you will be imprisoned for three lives if found to be in violation of this law.
7. we dont support development of business. we are an economy based on agriculture [mainly Papaver somniferum] and intend to keep it that way.
8. Use the ENGLISH spellchk. go into word > tools > set language > English (UK) > set as default – yes.  Raping of languages – ANY LANGUAGE – strictly prohibited. grammar / punctuation can be overlooked.

Introduction:
The Bohemian State is a co-blogging effort of hemlock, formerly A Lesser Mortal [things have changed since then - she's found the elixir of life] … an MBA/ banker / artist /journalist extradorinaire (?!) confused soul, lost in Lahore Pakistan, Dubai/Sharjah/Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah [she likes driving]; and monologist, an IME & MechE engineering hotness living in NY, USA [she has a sever case of abbreviations].
Sporadically, we get contributions from the 16-year old designer-aspirer-chic-hairdresser/make-up artist chick [currently Missing In Action], whose sole aspiration in life is to intern at Tony & Guy. most of us don’t even know what / who / why that is, but to each his own.
