I'm a great man!

More laughing definately needed there.. wait 'till I get the lawyers, the IND will buy Cryer.

And this: Who bought what?
Substituted judgment, Mr. Blood!

.. Not to mention some other substitutes which will be given to certain
gentlemen wearing suits with.. well it was mentioned before.. repetition is
the mother of knowledge.. if some customers get doublecrossed.

Hey,
I'm all for "acquisitions 'n mergers...
..as long as the Insurance Company will still cover this rust bucket.

May need a new name, tho.. Lightfoot too close to "Light Fingers",
Heaven forbid a suggestion of rippin' the customer off.

Night.. no gender confusion here.. just coverin' all bases for other customers as well.

Lemme know what boss to report to when I get back from Shore Leave.

Umm, how do I put it... comms error..?!

Anyway.. the insurance usually covers the thing, but you know how the insurance
companies are.. need some persuading from time to time. We have good lawyers here
should you ever require.

As for reporting... just post here and tell us of new adventures.


P.S.
Excellent poem, my salutes!

Graz on the poem, Night.

As you can see, i'm in a bit of a pickle at home.
I should change the sub-title of the thread..
"Post here if FL is threatening your happy homelife.."
Sort of a "support group" for us abusers.

Was gonna change the scow's name to Widow's Lament, but just doesn't roll off the tongue.

So, in honor of my adopted religion, and of the Greek Goddess of chaos 'n discord, she'll now have the moniker "Eris Ascendant" painted on her rusty prow.

...think I have some nicer Discordian Sigil than ol' Emporer Norton to use for an avatar.

And, speakin' of underwear, lately I've been changin' my sigfile more often..

I do need a few days off to reflect.

Keep em guessin'

Nothing to tell old man. Just a bunch of weary traders and the like, discussing the meaning
of life, the universe and everything. Or absolutely nothing, as the may case be. Dog man meself.
Never get close to any sort of kulturnei round here ... wont give the stuff house room.
Tends to stain the carpets. The cleaner creates hell. Together apart as we say somewhere.
Support group ... Support hose, more like.

Hello there!

I've been browsing through this here message dump and spotted that you seem a good bloke who enjoys a few drinks, any of my crew will confirm I have a bit of a weak spot for a drink or nine myself.

Well I use to be in the TG which has gone now, mores the pity, so I was wondering if there was any room in the [IND] for several hundred ex-miners, transport crew and a britonian battleship.

Looking forward to your reply, hope we can go ona bar crawl together regardless of your answer.

Don't worry about it being a BS, it'll soon be changed to an albatross frigate.

Once I've finished killing hundreds of corsair pilots to take to the mollys as a peace offering because I'm taking BHG jobs, oh and I need to get the money for it too :laugh:

Boys ... The old adage, the more the merrier springs to mind here. Bring it on. I, myself
just took delivery of an old TG Osiris. What the hell I'm going to do with it I have no idea.
But hey, I'm sure we will find a use for them in the future. More stupid drunk at the bar is
always welcome ... Can we clean the miners up a bit first though ?

Thank you both for your welcome!

I'll be in the bar at freeport 11 until further notice, but don't bring any girl firends or wifes with you cos they've got a load of new waitresses.

Man what do these zoners do to get their daugthers to make them look like goddesses!

Anyhow, will get the papers into the post as soon as they're filled in.

As soon as we've got the money I'll get the registery people to change the name too.

Oh and my miner boys and girls are fine as long as no-one tries to be funny and starts making jokes about miners, mining or unemployment.


Wow! gotta to rush, happy hour is just starting!

Marauder will drink anything that'll get you drunk. Blood is a psychotic trader.
