Almost before notice...
(Sneaking into tavern on the green...)
(Opening display case where public notices are posted.)
(Removing small, hand-lettered sign that reads:
Wanted: Brave Men and Women seeking Fame and Adventure.
Some slight possibility of Fortune.
Come One, Come All...
Now accepting applications for a journey to the Brave, New World.
Fun! Adventure! Excitement! Possible Death and Dismemberment!
See the World! See the World! See The World!
In fine print at bottom of sign:
No actual Fame or Fortune is guaranteed.
In the Event of actual Fame or Fortune, The Company takes full credit for Fame and 50% of all Fortune.
In really, really fine print below the fine print:
Slight possibility of Death and Dismemberment actually exists.
In the Event of actual Death or Dismemberment, The Company(tm) Disavows all knowledge or responsibility of said adventure.

(Raiding kitchen for a Ham, Swiss, and Mustard sandwich before sneaking out the back way...)
