Mange, <tRMN member David Cleric and I wrote a Honorverse filk song to the tune of Dixie:
Grayson Land Dave Cleric & Space Cat First Mangy Fur Oh, I wish I was on the planet Grayson, Technology there is soon forgotten, Look away, look away, look away Grayson Land. In Grayson Land where I was born on, Early on one toxic morn-on, Look away! Look away! Look away! Grayson Land. Da Protectortis marry "David M. Weber," David was a gay deceaber; Look away! Look away! Look away! Grayson Land. But when he put his arm around'er, He smiled as fierce as a full charged grazer, Look away! Look away! Look away! Grayson Land. Dar's Heavy Metal Toxens an Poison Plants, Makes you Dead or a little deader; Look away! Look away! Look away! Grayson Land. Den de-toxify de ground an scratch your grabble, To planet Grayson I'm bound to trabble. Look away! Look away! Look away! Grayson Land.> Chief, "Marse Robert is a rollin in his grave!" Mange, <> Poker & Mange CPO Poker Mind and, Mangy Fur the Smart Alick Spacecat.

Steadholder Travis Mueller, Steadholder Samuel Mueller and Steadholder Burdette are in a shuttle on the way to Austin City.
Travis Mueller says, "I am going to throw down $100 Austin notes, and let 10 citizens get them and pray for me." Samuel Mueller, who is richer by far, replies, "I am going to throw out $1,000, and let 100 citizens pray for me." Steadholder Burdette, who arranged the disagreement smirks. Provoked by the bravado of both men, and seeing the smirk, the pilot mumbles, "I am going to throw all three of you out, and let 2.25 Billion Grayson's pray for me." |

A Chief Harkness and Captain Pavell Young were sitting in the barbershop.
They were both just getting finished with their shaves, when the barbers reached for some after-shave to slap on their faces. Captain Young shouted, "Hey, don't put that stuff on me! My wife will think I've been in a whorehouse!" The chief turned to his barber and said, "Go ahead and put it on. My wife doesn't know what the inside of a whorehouse smells like." |

A Frontier Fleet battlecruiser captain was on patrol near the Silesian Confederacy when his ship was engaged by pirates. Before beginning the action, he turned to his steward and said, "Bring me my red tunic." Upon receiving this article of apparel, he donned it and then began the action.
A month later, near Andermani space, he engaged an Andy cruiser. Again, before the battle, he requested and donned his red tunic. After the battle, his exec asked, "Captain, why do you don a red tunic before battle?" "For morale," explained the Captain. "If I am wounded, any blood will not show against the red. Therefore, the crew will not know that I am wounded, and will not be disheartened." Two weeks later, the ship encountered an RMN destroyer. The Captain turned to his steward and said, "Bring me my brown pants!" |

It is said that after the Exodus, Austin Grayson threw himself into the hard physical labour that was necessary to build the new paradise. As a result, hands built up a thick layer of dead skin from manual labour. At the same time, Grayson's toxic environment took a terrible toll on his health, and he became ever weaker.
He never gave up prayer and meditation, however, no matter how bad things became. Even when the toxic local food caused his teeth to become rotten and infected, he kept it up, despite the terrible bad breath that came with it. In other words, he was a super-callused-fragile-mystic-hexed-by-halitosis. Knock knock. Who's there? Manticore. Manticore who? Man,ti' core these apples is really hard work... Knock knock. Who's there? Haven. Haven who? Haven't you heard, the war's over! Knock knock. Who's there? Mesa. Mesa who? Mesa getting really sick of these terrible puns. |
