And I'm a force of chaos, so I'll flip the switches randomly.

Space Cat First Mangy Fur AKA Snarks at Admirals, <Reminds me of that video Mell Brooks History of the Worlds, Part One the scene where Empress Nympho has the Petorian Guards lineup sans tunics to pick the best eye candy.

How many RMN Middies does it take to stop a Solarian SuperDreadnaught fleet?


Only takes one to push the 'Fire' button!

TV commercial, “Grayson’s RunchCo Records presents CPO Poker Mind singing and Space-cat First Mangy Fur on his electric lyre in their newest hit about Shadow of Freedom. Sung to the tune of Along Came Jones:”

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu7ciTd8V80

Along Came Mike:

Among the systems that lie in the League's grip along

its frontier with the Talbott Quadrant is the Mobius System

In revolution against President Svein Lombroso all along

the puppet of the Solarian League’s expansion system.

A messenger plead for Manticore’s aid with sad song

Mike Henke has no orders to assist any rebellious systems,

few ships, so many places to protect but, the plea rings a gong.

And then along came Mike, Solli fleet destroying Mike,

Knows it’s a Mesain plot Mike, doesn’t care Mike,

our independent thinking own loose canon Mike.

After word came of the plight of the Mobius System

Confermed by the furry lie detector Alfredo

Adding two plus too figured out it who the Mesa System

She sent a small force off to the Mobius System

Pealed off small units to aid systems duped by Mesa’s concerto

Keeping her mailed fist to strike at a Solar League system

With which to liberate Meyers systems from the Soli protection

And then along came Mike, Solli fleet destroying Mike,

Knows it’s a Mesain plot Mike, doesn’t care Mike,

our independent thinking own loose canon Mike.

Learning from encrypted records It was all Mesa System,

and more from interviews with a treecat lie detection

all in the newly free, grateful, and appreciative Meyers System

And being the woman on the spot decides on action

Posts a private dispatch to the Empress before leaving system

Giving her leave if things fail to disavow her action.

And so its Mike loose canon off, off, off to the Mesa System

And then along came Mike, Solli fleet destroying Mike,

Knows it’s a Mesain plot Mike, doesn’t care Mike,

our independent thinking own loose canon Mike.


Enjoy Poker and Mange

Mange, hissing in anger, <Chief you LET us get on page two again!>

Chief, "Whatd' you expect, new eARC breading new topics."

SPOILER JOKE FROM:

Mange, <After Mike gets to Mesa what do you think Alfrado's favorite dish will be?>

"OK I'll bite."

<Late fleeing onion members testicles who won't tell where Bolt Hole is.>

Chief, after a theatrical wince and, clutch of above mentioned anatomy, "Ouch, that joke hirts just thinking about it. You shouldn't tell such jokes."

<Why not?>Image "Bleek, bleek, bleek,...bleek." Image

"Lousy flea bitten six limbed walking flea circus!"
