Yes, you're quite in luck! That WAS, indeed, PAY DAY. This, however, is not. I did take the liberty of helping myself, er, helping you out by investing your hard -earned scratch in a going venture. In fact, it was leaving even then. Knowing your love of nibs, I invested at least part in a choco company, Hisheys. They make speciality chocolate. They have a little treat that all of the little kids are all over. Squirts. All the kids have Hishey's Squirts at some time. Just think of it! Why, you'll CLEAN UP! It's a dirty little secret, but sometimes you have to know just there to invest to get in on the bottom of things. This little investment of yours will take off at the runs, I'm sure, not the little drips and drabs of other irregular investments. This isn't just another crappy little investment, this thing could hit it BIG! You'll have PILES -- this is the straight poop here. Soon, you'll be SMELLING of money -- filthy, steenking rich! And fertile, too. We have eliminated all risks, leaving just the sweet smells of success, and other stuff. No, no, don't thank me, it was my doody to help out my crew -- just enjoy. Alimentary, my dear boy, just another one of the many services that I offer as lovable scoundrel, shade-tree lawyer*, and investment manger.



(Note to self... don't accept ANY food that Geoff has touched until after he's washed his hands. Better yet, fix your own food for a while...)

...... Where we going, again ? ....
It's quite simple Lazlo... you and Ilsa will get on that plane. I'll pretend that I still love her, and she'll think that I'm putting YOU on the plane in my place -- she plans to step out for a paper or to powder her dainty, little nose, but as you and I's knows, she won't be coming back, she's stating with me, only I'll be on the plane. Lalzo will wait in the west wind, If he sees the president, he's to pretend to be a congenital idiot to fool the president into thinking he 's one of them. After he gets the presidential pen, Maxine here will pass him, in hall, and bump with him, every-so-slightly. It'll be hard to see, but listen for the music for your cueue "Bump with me, baby, ya gonna dance the night awaaaayyyy!"
After the dance, Maxine slides her wallet into the pocket of the highest ranking politician there and then screams bloody murder.

No, wait, that won't work. A) He ALWAYS has on him money he's stolen from constituents, and b) he's quite uses to loud people.

Alternate plan: We get to the palace and circle around the left side. Near the back is an un-guarded wall, covered tin heavy ivey plants that have grow there for years. we split into two groups or 7 to 19, and climb the vines against the towers. it's only 12 stories up, but don't take any chances -- don't let the packs turn upside down, or the magic runs out (and possibly causes a severe explosion. If you meet anyone on the say up, tell them you are looking for the bathroom. When you get to the top, each group stay in their own tower until I summon you.

I will have gone around the front and met with our tickets, and 30 stone-filled crates that would housed the magic in the pack packs. Seeing as I have diplomatic immunity (Amazing what the Internet brings me) and I ostensibly have gifts for the sovereigns birthday party two days hence, I should get through just fine.

We''l meet, and someone will ask why we didn't just all use the invitations and put the magic in the crates and I 'll reply that it's a two sentence solution of we do it that way, but a three para if we do it my way. I will neglect to inform anyone that There's an additional cash bonus due to branding and product placement., but it's not really important. Just remember to smile, all the time, especially near anything that may have a shiny/dark finish. Speak loudly and clearly. We will need code words while any active cameras are within sight. Also, for sqweeps queeks, ladies, please consider more casual clothes, preferably make with dental floss, fishing line thongs, etc. Affairs with crew members are no required, but do add to ratings, and, best part, afterwards, tossing someone off the flight deck wearing only a life-preserver does: mends feelings, increase ratings, get rid of problems.

Although the ILSRA* says we have to return to the next port with at least 51% of our crew.

Now, for upcoming orders...
Short and WD(E) are in the A4 Hold, where they are building a large paper-mache gluteous maximum controlled by a scissored level mechanism.
In due time, we will need oooooooooooo;; to walk the construct across the land, in our kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk hungry-hungry hippy. We will use this as a loading/transport mechanism go get the sypplies ht . We will ues the hippo to load and transport the grains eb need. Farm automatcion, at is't best. 1) Hipppo eats. Lotts or=f peanuts, somne cornf, some platatoes. As Hippo east, internal mechanisms sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssjj move the food from th efront to the back of the hippo until it's full. One we have a butt-load of nuts and grains, we can head towards th rampt into one of the storage rooms.

We wuill be fisiting wild savavfaes and ksssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sss

OK, I see that the medsa re a kicking in... I haaaavr to sign off bewor it's too late.

One las quesiont/answere:
"Capt. May one see your credentials .... who taught you to lead this expedition.... ?"
1st, at see, I am the law. 2nd, I've left them in my other pirates costume, or maybe my playboy bunny outfit. 3) Taught? Me? to lead? AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH AH AH AH AH A.... You had me going for a second. I've been lreanig as we got from the books in the polites lough. Brain woeer an overgoat.
