Join the Royal Swiss Navy!
Dear Guys,
One of the silly things I do to pass time pleasantly is to make up amateur comedy routines, including the Royal Swiss Navy.
Inspired by silly SF club titles, surreal fanzine titles, and the Monty Python lads, the Royal Swiss Navy is not Royal, is not Swiss, and does not float. Ideally I would recruit other people to do surreal things in public, like march in home-made uniforms of camouflage patterns but clashing neon colours, or enter the Nanaimo Bathtub Race, or do public interest research on powerful corporations and political lobbies, and expose their more absurd follies on the Internet, to general public ridicule.
So far I have had no takers. Well, some people are amused by the Royal Swiss Navy Gazette I publish, and the RSN website I started (http://www.vcn.bc.ca/sig/rsn/), but the Royal Swiss Navy is still acquiring a state of existence.
Check out the above-mentioned website and examine the RSN Handbook, if you like.
