TAS

-THS to TAS, come in please, over.

-TAS here, I copy, over.

-Glad to hear you TAS. What's cookin on your end of the line, over?

-Nothing much. Things have been pretty good around here. The price of oil just keeps shrinking, and everyone says the CSA is in an economic upswing, over.

-Sounds good. How's your girl been, how's the family, over?

-Oh, my family's great. And my girl, well, it's the same as last time. What about you, over?

-My family's fine. And my girl is unchanged as well, IE, I don't have one, over.

-Too bad. Listen, I gotta go. Remember, Goodness is life, even when you're dead. over

-Yeah, later man. Life's good even when it's not. This is THS, over and out.

In what sort of alternate universe is oil going down? Are there some sort of radical new renewable energy sources, so nobody needs oil anymore?

In an alternate universe where the Confederacy won the war.

Wouldn't it be even more alternate if the British won the war? Or if Rome never fell? Or...anything really. You can keep going back...

But I love ''Goodness is life, even when you're dead.''

Thank you. I liked it too. It's hard to come up with a still positive opposite to "Life is good, even when it's not."
