Spacecat First Mangy Fur, <So, you finally came home, what's hapening?>

CPO Poker Mind,"Been at the bar talking about railroads iron and machine tools."

<Must have been stimulating, a real page turner, NOT.>

"Unless you like the subject, and some do. So mange how often do treecat females come in heat?"

<Once a year let's see that's six 'T' years.>

"Long wait between romances, how do you stand it?"

<I am not mated so it doesn't effect me, and I have Jackie Gleason for company. Here let me push play.>

Mange, <You are bloody and bruised again, another Bar Fight?>

Chief, "Yes, Remember the post here about this thread being my personal sand box?" Mange nods yes, and the Chief continues, "Well the clique over there wants you to play nice in their sand box but those cats have filled it so full of cat [expletive deleted] no wonder no one wants to play in their sandbox. I've still got one maybe so I'll stick it out, but to tell the truth I'm seriously thinking of changing my vote on the Landing Readers' Digest to No."

<I guess I tell the joke then. How many Hexapumas does it take to change a light bulb?>

"I give how many?"

<None, Hexapumas don't know what a light bulb is, silly two-leg. Is that the start of a grin I see on your face?>

In the 'OK you're a Battle Fleet Admiral ...' thread the following was posted:

Made me think of the old joke CD poster from the Cold War days meany, meany moons ago:

CD...In Case of Atomic Attack:...CD

1) Remove eye glasses and dentures.

2) Loosen your tie.

3) Bend over and place your head between your legs.

4) Kiss your ass (arse in England) good bye.

There were nine total but I only remember these four, any other old timer remember them all?

Mange, <I don't see the joke?>

Poker Mind, "That it is possible to survive an atomic attack with simple Civil Defense instructions, now that was a joke. Duck and Cover for us school kids was even funnier in a dark humor sort of way."

<Hey stupid two-leg that was 2,000 'T' years ago in the Honorverse.>

"Guess I'm getting old."

Chief Poker Mind, "So Mange what are you doing with that thick book?"

Spacecat First Mangy Fur, <Translating this calculus book into Base four.>

"Sounds like lots of fun, but I thought calculus was integration and derivatives?"

<It is.>

"So what are you doing?"

<Hurrying so I can start translating Partial Differential Equations into Base four.>

"But, ugh but it's just applied calculus, and you don't really need to translate into base four."

<Shhhh- My publisher doesn't need to know that.>

"Crooked darn 'cat!"

<Well at least I'm getting published,> :p

PS. How do you keep your treecat from eating all the celery in the fridge?

By keeping it somewhere else.

How do you keep your treecat from eating all the celery you hid somewhere else?

Where are future Solarians?
All around you... (and you...)

Why did the monkey go extinct?
The treecats beat them out.

Where is Cordelia Ransom?
In the media.


Why Grayson is Polytheistic:
If my teacher gives us a test, she is the Tester.
If my guidance counselor pretends to care, she is the Comforter.
If someone intervenes before a fight starts, they are the Intercessor.

What's the same on Grayson and Masada?
The girls do better on the other side.

Mange, <So Chief you are finally back from Bar Hopping. What's new in the Honorverse?>

Chief, "Well some top ten lists are appearing, someone reported a rant against our beloved RFC, Discussion on genetic engineering in two threads, one gravity tollerence, and the other possible mind-voice creations in two-legs."

<That last sounds interesting, maybe I won't have to wear this stupid collar any more?>

"Not in our lifetime, Mange."

<So ready for a joke? Knock Knock.>

"Who's their?"

<Hun.>

"Hun who?"

<Hungry treecat it's been ages since we went for shrimp and celery egg-rolls.>

Introducing the latest in Honoverse Humor:
Where are they now, Honoverse edition.
Rules:
1. Take a character that has not been mentioned for a few books but is not confirmed dead.
2. Make up blatant and hilarious lies about what they are doing now.

Wallace Canning:
Miraculously survived the turmoil of the Piere regime, and the subsequent fall of Saint Just. While removed from power by the rebirth of the Republic he gained great wealth and critical acclaim through his tell all book. "The Rise and Fall of the Committee, an Insiders Tale"

Hmm....
Maxwell Stromboli:
Was one of the 1/3 of the crew who survived the wreckage of Troubadour. Got reassigned to 8th fleet, (as in Operation Buttercup) and got to command a squadron of superdreadnoughts when his commander died. After seeing how good he was, he was earmarked for LAC command. Soon after, he was promoted to Rear Admiral and given a CLAC squadron to command. He decided he was going to work on a LAC so he told BuPers to assign himself to one. He got himself stationed in the Home Fleet, one of the two hundred or so LACs to survive the Battle of Manticore from the Home Fleet. After which, he was given the PMV because he landed his LAC on one of the enemy ships and flashed his impellers. He now commands a superdreadnought squadron in the 8th Fleet with several million dollars in the bank and retirement coming up. After which, he will devote his life to golf and his Honor Harrington shrine. Even so, he has powerful ties/influence in the Navy, and plays a part in all large-scale decisions.

After somehow miraculously surviving the explosion of the ex tepes, and making her way back to HAven, Cordelia Ransom decided it was best to stay far away from the salamander, and lit out for the SL. from an undisclosed core world, while hiding from the manties, Ransom releases a book called: THE TRUTH: THE LIES THE MANTICORANS HAVE SPREAD, talking details on all the truths she has spread over the years, and revealing the lies the manticorans have been spreading about her, including that she suspects that honor harrington is a computer program to discredit her.....

Chief, "Knock knock."

Mange, <Who's there?>

"Honor."

Mange, <Honor who?>

"On her way to a death ride, want to come."

Mange, <You stole that one from Admiral Werrf! You are a plagiarist, Chief.>

Chief Pokermind, "And you never told a good joke you heard before?" :p

PS. Treecat joke posted on Baen's Bar by csadn:

Q: Why was the treecat executed for treason?

A: Someone asked it how the war situation looked, and it said "BLEEK!"
