Perhaps Harrington did have a little horse in her. She had a long stride, a long mane and had a thing for Colts.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

A woman walks into a bar.

A very cool customer offers her three drinks. Bitch? Bitch? Bitch?

The woman slaps him. Again and again. Again and again. Again and again.

The bartender says "I guess she wanted three double slaps, instead of three single schnapss."
A woman walks into a bar, confronts a contract killer and slaps him.

Whack!

"I just hired you to face me!"
A woman walks into a bar dressed as Mcgruff the crime dog.

She sees an illegal contract killer and helps slap a bitch outta crime.
A cross dresser walks into a bar dressed as a contract killer.

A bitch walks into the bar behind him.

Two bitches walk out.

Ah, isn't that sweet.
Heard of the new mixed drink, the Baseborn Bitch?

What is it?

A regular Bitch—slapped, shaken and stirred!
A woman walks into a bar

After she leaves the bartender turns to a man and says "You really shouldn't have impugned Honor."


Poor Young.

"These are MY three wishes...

"Neither did Summervale or his employer!"

Was Hieronymus Stein a beer joke waiting to happen?

Perhaps he had a mug only a mother could love.

The planet's name is Torch and it's capital is Beacon.

That makes Torch a Beacon of light powered by slaves.

If the MAlign ever attacks Torch and the planet burns, their message will be "Out of the frying pan and into the fire."

Did Camp Inferno have a disco?

Burn baby burn, Disco Inferno!

Get a load of these lyrics. I sure know what they all listened to on the way out of the system. Surprisingly enough, Nimitz picked the selection on the juke box. Honor and Co. definitely approved. So apropos, ya know?

Disco Inferno
The Trammps

(Burn baby burn)
(Burn baby burn)
(Burn baby burn)
(Burn baby burn)
To my surprise, one hundred stories high
People getting loose y'all, getting down on the roof
Folks are screaming, out of control
It was so entertaining when the boogie started to explode
I heard somebody say
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
Satisfaction came in a chain reaction
(Burnin')
I couldn't get enough, so I had to self-destruct
The heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody going strong, and that is when my spark got hot
I heard somebody say
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down y'all
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
Up above my head
I hear music in the air
That makes me know
There's a party somewhere
Satisfaction came in a chain reaction
(Burnin')
I couldn't get enough, so I had to self-destruct
The heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody going strong, and that is when my spark got hot
I heard somebody say
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn)
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
When my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) when my spark gets hot
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn)
(Burn baby burn) burn that mother down
(Burn baby burn) disco inferno

Jessica Stein was an Erewhonese citizen and the daughter of famous Renaissance Association leader Hieronymus Stein.

She succeeded her father as leader of the RA after he was assassinated in 1914 PD. It was later revealed that she was in fact involved in the conspiracy to kill him.


Damn! His mug was so ugly even his own daughter turned on him.

I guess that happened at the turn of the Renaissance. LOL

Even in the Honorverse, Hell was simply an unacknowledged rumor.

Camp Charon is located way the Hell out in the Styx.
