Default Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours

primitive hears the deplorable noise coming from the sound system.The gruefull Gryphin is standing next to the systems, howling out threats of the Cantina blowing up if the system is turned off. Since GT is not around to blow the horn, primitive takes it on himself to restore a proper audio-enviroment . He grips his rusty (yet pointy) spear and embeds it deep into in Gryphins body, at the place where most beeings dont let the sun shine (There will be a long time before the Gryphin ever can assume his famous position again). primitive then carries a screaming Gryphin outside like a lollipop and deposits him with Barry at the parkinglot for safekeeping.

primitive enters the now desertet Cantina. He goes over to the soundsystem and places his finger on the button.
- Was Gryphin threat real ?
- Is this the end of the Cantina as we know it ?
Guess we find out. "click"

Mac takes his ear plugs out as the music dies down a little, looks around and orders 2 heaping bowls of chili, 1 with Puke's infamous sauce and the other with Tesco's anatamy cleansing concoction.

David G, even tho I didn't get to chat much with you do to circumstances beyond my control, I still enjoyed your Posts with the other members, remember to drop in and have a brewski or two, (on Gryphin's tab) and luck on your new endeavor

sizzling Mac

It this really going to work? Why make that dish out of salt? And hoisting the thing up on a tree and waiting for lightning to strike sounds kind of iffy... If will be really cool if it worked, though.
Well, there are about 6 pages of discussion attached to that link, and none of the people taking part said "This is utter nonsense, it will never work", although the design and it's limits are tweaked. By the end they are talking about using it to inscribe a logo on the moon=-)

That link again...
For one thing, they decided it would be easier to get a lightning strike by sending up a small rocket, trailing a conductive wire.

Not sure about the salt, since I know nothing at all about the physics of lasers, but it seems to be necessary...

GT, excellent. Thanks! I had thought about ordering a Faith Hill clone. But, I heard the factory where they assemble them was putting in male 'internal', and in some cases male 'external' parts. To help clear up some inventory space. *snicker* Hope you haven't already paid for that clone!

About the Faith Hill clones. Check the serial numbers. Anything befor 876934 are ok. From there to 998543 were questionable. The rest, well, you would not be fooled.

Gryph, I think you need to make an entry (fnarr) in the Malfadorica explaining exactly what the GP is...
