That smile . . .
Count my body parts, count my wallet, count my relatives.
Hmmph!

What is she up to?

Re: Castela 2017-02-17
I thought she wasn't allowed to play hockey, because she was a predat?
...or is this for a private in-house league for non-bevys only?
And Dave: the Pun Jar spit that one out and demands you give it this one instead.

OTOH, I'd be even more worried about Castela playing field hockey...
Technically, she's not a predat ... but i wonder if they let paras who are basically water buffalo play with the other bevies?

She will, of course, have to trade in that knotted tie for a bolo.

One of these days we're going to see her all spread out, just soaking up the sunshine...

The Pun Jar would like a word with you, but it's currently arguing precedence with the extremely cranky ghost of an SF author.Dave wrote:She will, of course, have to trade in that knotted tie for a bolo.

There are some "new" Bolo books out, and I think the authors did a pretty good job.
Seems like one is The Road to Damascus . . . seems like it was John RIngo and Linda Evans . . . Yes.

Last i encountered him was in '83 - after his stroke, he became increasingly cranky and difficult to deal with.
A friend who chaired a convention had a story about him dumping his plate on the restaurant floor and declaring that he could shit better scrambled eggs.
