Chief, "Hmm can't think of one for the Honorverse joke, but found a short DUNE video (7:06 minutes) for you all:"

Mange, <Let's hope the Honor Harrington movie is better!>

"If not you can play the new Honorverse drinking game 'Take a shot every time a treecat eats a stalk of celery or says 'Bleek,'' suggested by Instant Death."

<Alcohol like any other drug has a lethal dose therefore, following Instant Death's suggestion is 'instant death' in fact.>

A crusty old Manticore Marine Sergeant Major found himself at a gala event hosted by a local college. There was no shortage of extremely young idealistic liberal ladies in attendance, one of whom approached the Sergeant Major for conversation.

"Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you seem to be a very serious man.. Is something bothering you?"

"Negative, maam. Just serious by nature."

The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, "It looks like you have seen a lot of action."

"Yes, maam, a lot of action."

The young lady, tiring of trying to start up a conversation, said, "You know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself."

The Sergeant Major just stared at her in his serious manner. Finally the young lady said, "You know, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when was the last time you had sex?"

"1901, maam."

"Well, there you are. No wonder you're so serious. You really need to chill out and relax! I mean, no sex since 1901! Come with me."

She took his hand and led him to a private room where she proceeded to relax him several times.

Afterwards, panting for breath, she leaned against his grizzled bare chest and said, "Wow, you sure didn't forget much since 1901."

The Sergeant Major said in his serious voice, after glancing at his watch, "I hope not; its only 2030 now."

19:01, and several more times by 20:30.

Prolong must be a misnomer.

Sounds more like Pete and Repeat; or Pete-her and Repete-her.

Que the groans and smirks.

That's no worse than White Haven getting an offer from Honor, where he honors her offer and then spends the night...well, you get the idea. :oops:

Mange, <Bad Chief, your post in the (STICKY) Tales of Honor Press Release forum from tRMN's Facebook site ignited a firestorm.>

Chief, "Yep, fool with the canon RMN uniform an you get trouble from the fans. David Mattingly wrote when I complained of his putting four fingers on his treecat that it was the first criticism he got on his treecats, but one ribbon out of place on Honor's uniform garnered several. The costumes (these abominations don't deserve the term uniform IMHO) are as bad as putting Stegosaurus plates on a Tyrannosaurus you don't get a dinosaur but Godzilla! Look at the pathetic thing yourself:"

<No padded shoulders for Nimitz to dig in his claws either.>

"Image typical Hollywood turning a dinosaur into a monster. How do you rile a Honor Harrington fan?"

<Monkey with the Uniform!>

Given the competence level the SLN seems to possess and the blurring effect of time, I wonder if they managed to slip up enough to name a Scientist-class the SLNS Roy Hinkley?
