Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
With the Last of his Ganymede Time Bomb on its way down his throat, Kal looks up, sees one very ugly brute hovering over him. "Your chair, sorry, I was unaware." he offered... "Tell you what, if you can tell me how long the 100 years war Lasted, you can have your chair, or is that too difficult a challenge for you?"
While Primitive grunts and scratches his head searching for the answer to the question, Kal gets up, slips stealthily past the giant of a man and disappears into the crowd, chuckling quietly to himself.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Primitive, placing your 'Rusty (yet Pointy) spear in dark places like that will only have bad results. They'll have to rename your spear to 'Stinky (yet Pointy)' and I'm sure you wouldn't want that!
..there's a reason they say "Be carefull where you point that thing!" and it's not because they are afread! They're just thinking of your best interest!
Cheers!

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
primitive smiles, he knows the answer to this.
The 100 years war, that was 1337 to 1453, that should make it 122 Years.
Feeling his headache increasing by the advanced arithmetic, primitive looks for the green man, but he has already gone.
primitive sits down, leans back and ponders if RD's Kylie clones come in different sizes.

To prevent any possible thoughts of my forging your style, oh great and masterful Avatar creator, I redrew mine so that it now has its own personality.
Kaladaar is ever watchful, not always alert, but always learning.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Kal's keen sense of hearing makes out Primitive's half whispered answer to his question. When he hears it, he raises one eyebrow, smiles and thinks, 'For a primitive, he uses modern NETworking well'
"Barkeep, another GTB, and send one, a double, to my friend over there." he says, pointing.
Kal watches as the waiter walks over, serves the drink and gestures back in his direction. Kal then raises his glass in Primitive's direction, nods slightly and with a half smiles, empties his glass and again disappears into the crowd...

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
How did you get that answer?
OK, first I noticed that 1453 - 1337 does not equal 122, so I realized that it's not that simple. Then I realized that the Hundred Years War was actually not one war, but a series of short wars, with some periods of peace in between, so you don't include the periods of peace. But I don't remember much from history class, and I couldn't figure out how to arrive at 122?

Kaladaar:
Thanks for the drink man, but the RL me actually knew the answer 1337 to 1453 (Guess I'm a bit of a history buff)
Kamog:
You can't excpect a cretin like primitive to get the substraction correct.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
a very beragged Mac comes strolling back into the cantina with the Liz Hurley Clone on his arm, His face is lit in a gigantic Grin, sweat pours down from his brow, his clothes looking wrinkled, but everyone notices the firm, solid step of his walk, the "Twinkle" is in his eyes, He goes over to his table, orders a round of brewskis for everyone, leans back and sighs.
Oh My Very Good RD, A million thanks for your most wonderous of gifts (even if it cost 2000 minerals and a co owner of his tab) I owe you one big time... My profuse thanks and salutations... aaahh the outfit she wears alone is worth it... oh ya, (as mac turns up the juice on his newly installed pacemaker #51,) the old one gave out during round 3 )
He notices the new avatar pics posted on the dart board next to the bar, hmmmm, seems we're getting some tabs lol,
He waves at the Taz and then proceeds to try and explain his theroies of The Gryphin Position and Circle the Wagons to the LH Clone, (with a huge smile in his eyes)
Oh Rd Thanks, Thanks, your in my will.....
a tired and worn out Mac (but not dead and still Kicking )

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Kamog:
It wasn't the 122 I was raising my eyebrow to, but the fact that he had the years right. Let's see what we can come up with if we do the calculations...
1453
-1337
=====
116 years
Did I hear someone yell bingo?
