there's nothing better than the scent of gunpowder in the morning!

I've the PERFECT solution! we'll use them as docking bumpers! keeps away the gawkers!
I haven't jimmies the lock to the armoury yet... funny wires running all over the place, and they're all red or blue -- and I can't remember which color would disarm anything unpleasant.

On the bright side, I did find that there are bottom-mounted loud-speakers. If we run into trouble, we can play Kenny G until any unfriendlies fall asleep. Or we could play Michael Bolton and wait until they dispatch each other.

Deb, I am counting of you for muscle and intimidation. Er, not to ME, but to anybody unpleasant to me -- just to be clear.

You hear that Geoff? Heh... I gots a body guard.

On the practical, anybody got any experience in hand-to-hand or can you at least square dance? I find that a suitable substitute when unfriendlies try to put hands-on.

You know, I don't know why I'm so jumpy... this is really just a simple trading mission... trade something for gold, I was told. Odd crate in the cargo bay. It sez "organs" on it. Puzzling.






OK, I couldn't wait. I peeked, then I peaked. Nothing runny, gross, or illegal. It's a Casio WK-series. I feel a lot better... I was sure it was going to look back at me or give me edgar allen poe nightmares. I don't THINK it's illegal.

Deb, can you an KK find a suitable distraction for the harbor master and mates? Nothing that will require a mop or creamation, please... we'll want to return to this port eventually. (hm... I wonder if Monte Carlo has a zeppelin hanger free? -- if not, I think the Pope can put us up for a while... he owes me one, plus, the Vatican has reasonable "no questions" exchange rates, and there are souvenirs).

like I said! I found a use for the heads! and we can always port hockey with the heads!
Geoff, I just thought of something... if we have to pacify a group of people, we can drop steamed broccoli on them. How long do you think it will take you to steam about 2 tonnes of broccoli? Is it better to have it already steamed and drop cold, or take the chance on having to wait while you steam it?

Beats watching sports on the bar tv anyday.

Pshrynk, if you're tending, can I get a dry gin martini, please? With an olive, if you can get the jar open.
I always go in stealth mode!
