44 the problem with BW? Have the last day's messages been lost? Land line
|

45 communications are necessary to circumvent BW errors. Twits are on the

47 information for you. NET 2, communication needed ASAP. Next message will

91 DEAR ANN LANDERS: I AM WRITING TO SEE IF YOU CAN OFFER ME THE SLIGHTEST GLIMMER
|
||
|
|
92 OF HOPE INTO MY WRETCHED LIFE.IT ALL STARTED A YEAR AGO HEN MY
|
||
|
|
93 SAWMILL BURNED OWN. MY PARTNER HAD THE FIRE INSURANCE RENEWRD IN HIS NAME, THEN
|
||
|
|
94 TORCHED THE PLACE. SO HE COLLECTED, AND IS SOMEWHERE LYING ON A BEACH ATCHING TH
|
||
|
|
95 E NATIVE GIRLS AND SIPPING SOMETHING EXOTIC FROM A HOLLOWED OUT PINEAPPLE; AND I
|
||
|
|
96 AM HERE IN HIS PLACE, WHICH REMINDS ME, I'M SORRY FOR WRITING THIS IN CRAYON,
|
||
|
|
97 BUT THEY DON'T ALLOW US TO HAVE ANYTHING SHARP HERE. WELL, THAT WASN'T SO BAD,
|
||
|
|
98 BUT I HAD JUST COME FROM THE DOCTOR AND LEARNED THAT I HAVE CANCER OF THE BRAIN,
|
||
|
|
99 LUNGS,COLON, AND ACHILLES TENDON, AND WAS GIVEN ABOUT A YEAR TO LIVE. AND IF
|
||
|
|
100 THAT WASN'T BAD ENOUGH, O THE WAY HOME I WAS INVOLVED IN A THREE CAR ACCIDENT,
|
||
|
|
101 AND AS THE OTHER TWO CARS WERE POLICE CARS, I HAD TO PUT UP MY HOUSE FOR BAIL.
|
||
|
|
102 WHEN I FINALLY DID GET HOME, I FOUND OUT THAT MY WIFE HAD RUN OFF WITH A
|
||
|
|
103 BULGARIAN DENTIST FROM SOUTH EL MONTE, AND HER MOTHER HAD MOVED IN, AND SHE
|
||
|
|
104 IMMEDIATELY STARTED BADMOUTHING ME. I JUST COULDN'T TAKE ANYMORE, AND DECIDED TO
|
||
|
|
105 END IT ALL. I TOOK MY PISTOL AND POINTED IT AT MY HEAD, AND,---PULLED THE TRIGGE
|
||
|
|
106 BUT, SIGH, I MISSED, AND HIT-YOU GUESSED IT- MY MOTHER IN LAW. THE POLICE SAID I
|
||
|
|
107 DID IT ELIBERATELY, BUT THANK GOD THE JURY BELIEVED ME, AND SET ME FREE. I WAS
|
||
|
|
108 SO HAPPY, THINKING I COULD LIVE OUT THE REST OF MY SHORT LIFE IN PEACE, BUT WHEN
|
||
|
|
109 I GOT HOME, THERE WERE MORE POLICE WAITING FOR ME. I WAS ARRESTED FOR ATEMPTING
|
||
|
|
110 SUICIDE. THE JUDGE SAID I WAS A MENACE TO SOCIETY, AND SENT ME HERE, TO THE
|
||
|
|
111 SNICKERING SYCAMORES REST HOME, WHERE THIS BATTLE AXE NURSE MAKES ME WEAVE
|
||
|
|
112 BASKETS ALL DAY.YESTERDAY I GOT A LETTER FROM MY KIDS, AND THEY SAID HEY ALL
|
||
|
|
113 HATE ME, AND TOMORRROW THE DOCTOR IS GOING TO DO A LOBOTOMY ON ME. WELL, THATS
|
||
|
|
114 MY STORY, CAN YOU OFER ME ANY HOPE?

|

116 AHA! VEREY GOOD KIND INNKEEPER BUT WILL IT WORK FOR LONG. WE MAY HOPE.
|
||
|
|
117 MUST HAVE DOZED OFF AGAIN. WERE DID EVERYBODY GO.
|
||
|
|
118 NOTICING THEY WERE NEARLY ALONE AT THEIR TABLE, THEMNAX AND DREAMTOUCHER
|
||
|
|
119 WENT TO THE FRONT DOOR AND PEEKED OUT. A LARGE BUS-LIKE OBJECT WAS JUST PULLING
|
||
|
|
120 AWAY FROM THE VERANDA. THE DESTINATION SIGN SAID: CHARTERED AND A HAND LETTERED
|
||
|
|
121 PAPPER SIGN IN THE LOWER RIGHT FRONT WINDSHIELD SAID: TWIT'S MYSTERY TOUR.
|
||
|
|
122 "CANT SAY AS I'M SAD TO SEE THAT LOT DEPART";DREAMTOUCHER SAID.
|
||
|
|
123 "WHO WERE THEY?";THEMNAX ASKED.
|
||
|
|
124 "IT'S A LONG STORY. ASK THE BARD OR THE SHADOW CREW SOME TIME IF WE EVER
|
||
|
|
125 SEE THEM AGAIN."
|
||
|
|
126 "SPEAKING OF THE BARD; WASN'T HE THE ONE WITH A LEAD ON THIS MCKANE BUNCH?"
|
||
|
|
127 "THAT'S RIGHT BUT WERE IS HE. HE COULD BE RIGHT IN FRONT OF US FOR ALL I CAN
|
||
|
|
128 TELL BUT ONE THING'S ODD"
|
||
|
|
129 "WHAT'S THAT?"
|
||
|
|
130 "I DON'T SEE SHADOW!"
|
||
|
|
131 "SHADOW?"
|
||
|
|
132 "L'HOMME'S CAR. NOW THAT IS ODD"
|
||
|
|
133 "WE MIGHT AS WELL HEAD UP TO MY ROOM FOR A BIT. THERE IS SOMETHING ODD
|
||
|
|
134 THERE YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN TO ME."; THEMNAX INVITED.
|
||
|
|
135 WHEN THEY GOT THERE HE SHOWED DREAMTOUCHER A DOOR SET INTO THE WALL WITH NO
|
||
|
|
136 OBVIOUS WAY OF OPPENING. "I'VE TAKEN THE LIBERTY OF CUTTING THE LATCH. DON'T
|
||
|
|
137 TELL THE INNKEEPER ABOUT THAT THOUGH, I USED THE CUT-METTAL FUNCTION OF MY STAFF
|
||
|
|
138 AND I'M NOT SURE HOW HE WOULD FEEL ABOUT IT."
|
||
|
|
139 THEMNAX OPPENED THE DOOR IN QUESTION. BEHIND IT WAS SIMPLY AN ALMOST DOOR
|
||
|
|
140 SIZED MIRROR FLUSH WITH THE REST OF THE ROOM'S WALL. TO
|
||
|
|
141 ONE SIDE OF ITS WIDE METTALIC FRAIM WAS A SMALL 3 BY 5 KEYPAD. THEMNAX TYPED IN
|
||
|
|
142 90909. THE MIRROR VANISHED AND THEY WERE LOOKING INTO A DINING ROOM. SEVERAL
|
||
|
|
143 FAMILIAR FACES WERE SEATED AT TABLE, AMONG THEM VOYEUR AND L'HOMME!
|
||
|
|
144 "GO BACK AND LOOK AROUND THE INN AND SEE IF YOU CAN FIND THE BARD. IF NOT
|
||
|
|
145 COME BACK UP HERE AND PUNCH THE SAME CODE I JUST DID."
|
||
|
|
146 THEMNAX THEN SAT, LOTUSLIKE ON HIS MINI-GRAV-SLED, EASED OFF THE FLOOR ABOUT
|
||
|
|
147 SIX INCHES AND TURNED ONCE AGAIN TO DREAMTOUCHER. "OK. NOW REMEMBER WHAT I
|
||
|
|
148 SAID."
|
||
|
|
149 DREAMTOUCHER REPEATED IT BACK. THEMNAX WAS SATISFIED THAT HE GOT IT RIGHT.
|
||
|
|
150 PUTTING ON HIS CLOAK, HE SEEMED TO DISSAPPEAR IN FRONT OF DREAMTOUCHER'S EYES.
|
||
|
|
151 HIS DISEMBODIED VOICE SEEMED TO COME FROM MID AIR. "AS SOON AS I'M COMPLETELY
|
||
|
|
152 THROUGH, PUSH THE KEY LABLED '#'".
|
||
|
|
153 WITH THAT THE SEEMINGLY EMPTY GRAV SLED GLIDED TWARD AND THROUGH THE OPPENING.
|
||
|
|
154 AS SOON AS IT CLEARED, DREAMTOUCHER DID AS THEMNAX HAD ASKED OF HIM AND THE
|
||
|
|
155 DOORWAY ONCE ACAIN BECAME A MIR
|
||
|
|
156 BEFORE HE LEFT THE ROOM, DREAMTOUCHER CLOSED THE CRUDE WOOD AND IRON DOOR WHIC
|
||
|
|
157 CONCIELED THE 'MIRROR'. HE THEN LEFT THEMNAX'S ROOM AND WENT DOUNSTAIRS TO TRY
|
||

234 The advancement of man can only be slowed by the lack of speed in his I/O
|
||
|
|
235 devices. If such devices are dealt with in a non-paralled manner, where
|
||
|
|
236 I/O is hampered by the shear physical limitations of physics, then man
|
||
|
|
237 will surely falter in his quest for utter greatness. If man can not
|
||
|
|
238 overcome the cruel realities of quote mode, than how can man overcome the
|
||
|
|
239 slings and arrows of unreal proportions?

260 a bunch of fresh flowers in a small vase on a table near the head of the

|

|
|
327 AT THE FOOT OF THE STAIRS, AS HE TURNED TOWARD THE CORRIDOR LEADING TO
|
||
|
|
328 THE BATH, DREAMTOUCHER HAPPENED TO GLANCE IN AT THE COMON ROOM. "WHAT IS
|
||
|
|
329 THIS?!?!" HE ASKED HIMSELF. NEARLY EVERYONE WAS STILL SEATED AT THE TABLE.
|
||
|
|
330 EVERYONE EXCEPT THEMNAX THAT IS! QUICKLY HE TURNED BACK TWARD THEMNAX'S
|
||
|
|
331 ROOM. WHEN HE GOT THERE HE PUNCHED IN THE CODE BESIDE THE MIRROR
|
||
|
|
332 JUST AS THEMNAX HAD INSTRUCTED EARLIER. THE ROOM BEYOND, WHEN THE MIRROR
|
||
|
|
333 CLEARED, WAS EMPTY AND A BIT DUSTY. THERE WAS NO ONE TO BE SEEN THERE!
|
||
|
|
334 HE POKED HIS HEAD THROUGH AND TRIED SENDING. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE!
|
||
|
|
335 HE EVEN STUCK HIS WALKING STICK THROUGH AS FAR AS IT WOULD REACH BUT
|
||
|
|
336 STILL NO LUCK. CONSIDERING WHAT HE THOUGHT HE HAD SEEN AND WHAT HE SEEMED
|
||
|
|
337 TO BE SEEING NOW, HE DECEIDED UPON DESCREATION AS BEING THE BETTER PART ET.C
|
||
|
|
338 AND RECLOSED THE PORTAL AND MADE HIS WAY THOUGHTFULLY BACK DOWNSTAIRS.
|
||
|
|
339 "MAYBE THAT GOOD WARM SOAK WILL HELP UNSCRAMBLE MY THOUGHTS AFTER ALL."
|
||
|
|
340 SHEDDING HIS SIMPLE GARMENTS AS HE WENT, HE FOLDED THEM NEATLY BESIDE
|
||
|
|
341 THE POOL (BATH) AND EASED HIMSELF IN.

|
||
|
|
344 AS SOON AS HE GLIDED THROUGH HE REALIZED SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT.
|
||
|
|
345 HE COULD CLEARLY SEE THAT THE FIGGURES AT THE TABLE WERE ONLY HOLOGRAMS.
|
||
|
|
346 HE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE DECOR WAS AMERICAN ERSATZ ITALIAN RESTURANT
|
||
|
|
347 LATE 20TH CENTURY EARTH! WHEN HE TURNED TO GO BACK THERE WAS NO PORTAL
|
||
|
|
348 TO RETURN THROUGH. AS HE SAT IN CONSTERNATION, ONE FIGGURE WHICH WAS
|
||
|
|
349 NIETHER PROJECTED NOR ANDROID APPROACHED. HE HAD A LONG GREY BEARD AND
|
||
|
|
350 TATTERED METALIC GREYISH ROBES.
|
||
|
|
351 "ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF"; THE FIGURE SAID. "MY NAME IS
|
||
|
|
352 SLARTIBARTFARST AND YOU ARE ON MY SHIP THE BISTROMATH, PERMINENTLY DESGUISED

353 AS AN ITAILIAN RESTAURANT. SEE THAT SALT SHAKER OVER THERE? IT IS TWO RED

356 PLANET SCULPTUR AND I LOVE TO DO THE FIDDLEY BITS AROUND FJORDS."
|
||
|
|
357 "UTTERLY FASSINATED"; THEMNAX REPLIED. "I AM A COORDINATOR OF THE HUB AND
|
||
|
|
358 SERVENT OF ALL EXIXTANCE. I WAS SENT OUT TWARD THE INNISFELL SECTOR WERE

362 PERSONS I'VE TALKED TO SO FAR BELIEVE IT TO BE OF EARTH ORIGON BUT MY OWN
|

|

363 SUSPECIONS ARE THAT IT IS A FRONT OF THAT WORLD WHICH WANTS TO USE EARTH'S

364 PEOPLE AS IT'S ARMY OF CONQUEST AGAINST THE PEACE AND FREEDOM LOVING

369 WITH A GRINDING JOLT, ALL SENSE OF MOTION CEASED. NOT THAT THERE
|
||
|
|
370 WAS MUCE TO BEGIN WITH. LOOKING OUT THEY COULD SEE THEY HAD LANDED NEXT TO
|
||
|
|
371 A PYRAMID SHAPED BOOK STOR AND BEYOND THAT A MIDEAVUL INN! A LARGE GREY
|
||
|
|
372 BUSS WHICH HAD JUST PULLED AWAY FROM THE INN JUST AS QUICKLY STOPED INFRONT
|
||
|
|
373 OF INNISFELL'S NEW ITALIAN RESTURANT; THE BISTROMATH!
|
||
|
|
374 "OH NO"; SLARTI CALLED OUT IN EXASPERATION,"WERE SURLY DOOMED NOW, A WHOLE
|
||
|
|
375 BUSLOAD OF TWITS ARE DECENDING UPON US".
|
||
|
|
376 WITH LOUD WHOOPS OF "BUD" AND "OLY" AND "NO ANCHOVIES" THEY BURST THROUGH

377 THE AIRLOCK/FRONT DOOR. QUICKLY PROGRAMING THE ANDROIDS TO PREVENT THE TWIT
|

|
455 -> Milchar - don't see much from you here lately. Too busy DMing the game on PCS?
|

|
|
456 Or is it the same problem others I know are experiencing: no coherent story line.

464 FIN SHOOK HIS HEAD, TRYING TO CLEAR THE COBWEBS FROM BETWEEN HIS EYES. HE
|
||
|
|
465 LOOKED AROUND FOR SOME FAMILIAR SIGN OF HIS WHEREABOUTS BUT FOUND ONLY GREEN
|
||
|
|
466 GRASS AS FAR AS THE EYES COULD SEE. THEN IN THE DISTANCE A SILVERY SHIM-
|
||
|
|
467 MER CAUGHT HIS ATTENTION. IT SEEMED TO BE DRAWING CLOSER AT A RATHER RAPID
|
||
|
|
468
|
||
|
|
RATE OF SPEED AND HE COULD DETECT NO SOUND FROM WHATEVER IT WAS USING FOR
|
||
|
|
469 A POWER PLANT. THEN "IT" WAS UPON HIM, OR RAHTER ABOVE HIM, WHISPERING
|
||
|
|
470 TO ITSELF. THE CRAFT, FOR THAT WAS WHAT IT APPEARED TO BE, MEASURED AT
|
||
|
|
471 ROUGHLY THREE FOOTBALL FIELDS. HE COULDN'T SEE ANY LIGHTS OR OTHER VISIBLE
|
||
|
|
472 SIGNS OF LIFE FROM WHAT WERE APPARENTLY WINDOWS, BUT DIDN'T LET THIS LULL
|
||
|
|
473 HIM INTO A STATE OF DISREGARD. IT WAS BIG, QUIET AND QUITE OBVIOUSLY VERY
|
||
|
|
474 HEAVY. AND HE WAS IN THE CENTER OF IT'S SHADOW.
|
||
|
|
475 "WELL, HE THOUGHT, THIS IS DEFINITELY THE LAST TIME I LISTEN TO GARTHLEM
|
||
|
|
476 WHEN IT COMES TO DRINKING SULTERMIN!" HE ATTEMPTED TO WALK AWAY FROM WHAT
|
||
|
|
477 WAS QUITE CERTAIN TO BE HIS DEMISE IF HE DIDN'T MOVE AND THE SHIP SHOULD
|
||
|
|
478 SUDDENLY DROP IN. THE FURTHER HE MOVED, THE FURTHER THE SHIP MOVED. AND
|
||
|
|
479 CHANGING DIRCTIONS DIDN'T HELP HIM ANY EITHER. FIN SAID HIS PRAYERS AND
|
||
|
|
480 STARTED SPRINTING AS FAST HIS LONG LEGS WOULD ALLOW. AND THEN THE WORLD WENT
|
||
|
|
481 WENT DARK.C

490 I have the same problem with cbbs/nw. anyone know anything about it? I would
|
||
|
|
491 like to be a watcher at the risk game (I know of the hazards of playing) if
|

|

492 it would be alright. But for now...

494 I was going through my pockets looking for a coin to pay my tab with when I
|
||
|
|
495 ran across a bit of paper. I know that wasn't here before. Opening it up
|
||
|
|
496 I quickly read it's contents. "This dosn't look good," looking up at the
|
||
|
|
497 inkeeper I said, "I'll be gone for a while, but with any luck I'll be back
|
||
|
|
498 in a couple of weeks." Going through the door I wispered "with a couple
|
||
|
|
499 of friends as well..."
|
||
|
|
500 Going through the dusk air, I found a clearing near a large tree with
|
||
|
|
501 low branches. Producing three minibolos, I set two on the ground, and one
|
||
|
|
502 upon the lowest branch. I fiddled with the controlls, until I was able to
|
||
|
|
503 produce the proper resonance field between the three. Using the field
|
||
|
|
504 as a door, I stepped through..........
