Well the first thing I would do is get a different bartender, the one you have has a long face, now I know why MANFRED told that horse joke. I'm scared to see what the waitress looks like.

In other news....

My payday is on the 1st and 15th...

Has anyone seen RealTink or Parrot lately? I'm starting to wonder if I'm going to have to list them as retired and start working on filling their positions. I have a few people in mind, but I try to be as loyal as I can. At this point though I think business is starting to suffer a bit due to their absence. I don't ask for much, but you have to show up sometime.

Hey Jacklpe, i can help out. I can stand in the shadows and scare the hell out of the drunk patrons! I will be all in fun of course! all though im not sure i can scare a child muchless a fine pilot any more. but ill be happy to try once again!

Any maritime experience Ghost? The JR Trixie and Pixie are just sitting in our hidden deep water cove rusting lately. Someone who can operate those as quietly as a ghost and help out with our side businesses (Alchohol, Tobacco, and Firearms with a little bit of personnel transport) would help out everyone's bank accounts. Our "Special Projects" division has been suffering.

Or, you can just hide behind the door and scare people when they walk in. Either way...

Ive been know as a human fish when i was alive! Im sure i can help out in the department. And i need no equipment to go underwater. Money saved right there! Unless the ATF has a psychic or the GhostBuster on there side, it should be easy! I accept the job!

Umm now do i have to be sober for this?

You looking for a barmaid?

Do you know where they keep the cold milk?

Why, yes, yes I do. It's out back, in between the bottles of cyanide and chloroform. It's milk, I promise. Low-fat, too.

...kidding, hon. I'm not permitted to go through inventory, so you might want to talk to Manfred.

No, all that's required is a good line of baloney....

I'll get page one updated when I can... Real life is pretty busy at the moment.

Luna, name your price. I just don't want you to have to put up with the slightly overbearing old farts that frequent the place unless you are able to let it go in one ear and out the other. That's why I've tried to stick with ladies in the late 20 early 30 something crowd. In the mean time, you know we won't put up with anything too over the top, but I don't want to put you in a spot that would be uncomfortable. If you think you can handle it, and if everyone else will be on their best behavior, the job is absolutely yours. If RealTink shows back up, we'll just try to divide the shifts up so it's all fair.

Let me know.

I'm up for it, Jack. Besides, the folks up at NLR HQ are really quiet and well-behaved, so I suppose I could use a little crazy and overbearing. Balance things out, y'know?

Nah, not you Wolf. It's just that I know the good Doctor Dave is quite the character, as is Davy Crockett. Even this Dave (me) hates to have to watch every word I say. Luna is a very kind and classy young lady, and I want to make sure she is treated as such, yet in the mean time not kill the atmosphere in here either. I believe Luna would be a fantastic addition to the place because of her intelligence and great personality, but I also want to make sure that it's a good fit, and that she actually wants the "job". I'm surprised I haven't heard from Manfred yet. He always is wise when it comes to personnel matters.

Luna, you're hired. Here are the rest of the keys and combos. There is a sawed off 12ga and an iron skillet under the register if anything gets out of hand. Also, if you need me, just push the red button under the counter.

For the rest of ya, all I can say is make sure you tip well. We've got college to pay for now, and I fully expect that Luna will not have to struggle.

I think this should be fun. Very glad to have you on board...

I think Manfred's passed out in the corner again....

Page one updated

Not passed out, just sleepin' with one eye open. Little trick I picked up at my first job.

Welcome aboard Luna! Hopefully this place won't over-balance with over-bearing. Nah, a bunch of well-meaners. Except... never mind.

Jacko I've been busier this week, plus I thought I'd try to bolster that Dogfight ranking a little, so I've been (gasp) dogfighting in my spare time. I also picked up an iPad Air for my wife, and I've been setting that up. Dogfight sure is hard to play on a tablet! You people must have strong arms.

Hope ya'll don't mind, I went to Costco and got an even bigger tip jar. Luna, there's already a line outside. That never happens on a Wednesday! You must have a fan club. Oh wait I think it's cuz I forgot to unlock the door.

Nice to see you, too Kes. I wasn't aware you were a regular here. One Coke coming right up. Oh, and don't worry, I've been putting up with your babbling for months now, no reason it'd start getting to me now.

...totally kidding! Thanks for the tip, by the way. If that's what you give me for pouring some cola, I'd like to see how much you'd tip for a French 75.

I'll spot you for this one, Ghost, considering my rather generous tip from Kes over there. Besides, it says here on the roster that Raptor reached his cap days ago.

Barkeep, hows about a gin and tonic over here? (Bombay sapphire...if you don't mind.)

I'm sure Manfred wouldn't mind terribly if I fill in. He's probably out flying at the moment, so I guess I'm your gal.

Hmm... can't find the Sapphire. We do have some Gordon's London Dry, if that suits your fancy. I guess 'ol Jack couldn't (or simply wouldn't) go for the high-brow stuff. (Don't tell him I said that.)

Are you kidding? Jackl's Place is highly, err, subsidized by alternate profit centers. The pricey stuff is the norm, save a few special bottles for unique occasions. For example, sometimes I pour tKes his vanilla and кока-кола, the Russian bottle, rare stuff.

Tips off the good stuff!

Pour away, I just need to put in a fresh battery and head off to bomb some hangars carriers.
