Everybody is ignoring Manpower and Mesa's security services. They have lots of ways of killing slaves.

Being Admiral Sandra Crandall's sex slave.

Many men have suffered this fate.

None have survived the experience.

Well, not that would admit surviving anyway.

Being stranded in space in the manner that almost befell Ginger Lewis has to rank high on my list. Claustrophobic and floating about, aimlessly lost in the great big huge void that is space, closing in all around you.

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

Suppose you are in a ship pulling 100g, 1000m/s/s. and you are 10m from the bulkhead. Your fall time is 0.1s, long enough to be perceptible.

t is proportional to 1/(square root of acceleration).

Sort of life the scene in FLESH GORDON where the monster falls off the tower. "OH SHI...."

Only the sexapuma is dangerous. The ones that want to fuck with you. And they all seem to be hungry and horny.

@TFLY,

Crandall had sex slaves? I thought those were pine cones shoved up her posterior.

Putting your body inside the wrong electrical circuit on ship. What's that burnt smell.

Put a spacesuit on, Glue yourself on a big missle and start the missle.

Yeah, Rocket man!

Maybe fun, till the missle went out of fuel or you hit somesthing.
