I can honestly say I brew a bitchin' bitter lager, a smooth porter, and mouth puckeringly good bitter ale. And my mice have never been happier, thanks for asking. |

Jray: you owe me some damn orange chicken now. Or at least some friggin' token chopsticks. Let me know when you need my mailing address. Wife can't use chop sticks BTW, so send some sporks too.
DOC: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: Edit: it wouldn't let me put in more. apparently there's a limit. nazis Foreigner: Damn, I was BORN in '80. Feeling like a wipper-snapper now. Thanks Everyone else: When civil war looms, remember these three things - 1) Nukes don't do crap to a drop bear, but they will give you one bad sun burn. And in the end, it just serves the cause of the IE/fraggle conspiracy. So nukes and groin shots are out . (also, don't go after the dedicated, that's just low. reference anyone?) 2) Looting can be fun , just make sure that you direct all of your looting intentions at the devil that is Walmart. 3) Kagentenshi is with the IE's/Fraggles!

Jray - I sure hope so. Other wise I don't wanna know what the beak is from!
Oracle - 'destroy all infidels'? Whoa there buddy, rein it in a bit. didn't you know that 'infidel' is a loaded word now-days? We prefer 'heathen' 'round here. |

This might be wrong, but i started reading a sries of fantasy novels by David.. Freeland? Frieland? something like that that featured the ability for people to dedicate themselves to a lord, or anyone for that matter really, by lossing some attribute they have, and gifting it to them. They were called Dedicates, and in "conventional" battle it was considered wrong to go after those, however, the nemesis does it. |

Hey man! This is real life, not an MMORPG. I was going to share the beer and mice, but now I don't feel like it. :( |

Too far-fetched. My sense of disbelief can only go so far. Now, Cyberzombie Drop Bear Ninas infested with Invae and drugged on Eucaylptic derived combat drugs and dual weilding dikoted orichaelum battle-axe weapon foci, I can see... |

yes, Drop bears are far to stealthy to be able to fit into gyro-mount harnesses.
Though i'm still puzzling over why someone needs a harness to carry a rolled up sandwich and how one helps fire automatic weapons. |

OMFG! ROFL! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.. I don't know why that struck me as so funny. Lack of sleep? Too much caffeine? Having just read this thread in the entirety while attempting to look productive at work??? The world may never know... |

hmmmm I think the Drop Bears go for Gyro's now. I wonder if that's what Greek Drop Bear Ninja Cybercommando's eat. |

I forget the author's name, but that's the one. The Rune Lords series or something to that effect. A very interesting idea I thought. Basically, the dedicated give their 'attribute', in the form of an endowment of their strenth, charisma, whatever to the lord. So as an example, charisma, one person gets really ugly, one person gets a lot more charismatic. Or one person is so weak physically, that they are in a bed for the rest of their lives, while the lord houses them, and receives their strength. It gets really interesting though with intelligence endowments, because if the dedicated is killed (say, before a major battle by an assasin), the recipient loses that ability. So with intelligence, they actually forget a LOT of the things that they have learned, and aren't even sure of what they've lost.
Ironically, this thread was started by.... *drum rooollllll* Gyro the Greek Sandwich pirate. And it comes full circle.
I don't reallly like beer, so that's ok. But I'll take Vodka! And that take out you promised us! ( we went out for Panda Express, ended up getting Apollo Burger. Sad) |

Hadn't read a post by him for a long time. My Assassin Drop Bears took care of him. Or he's still mentally healthy and didn't want to risk that by reading & posting here. And for the last to pages of this thread (was away four days): :rotfl: |

What about the giant cyberzombie ninja drop bear with gyromounted Ninja Drop Bear Launcher?
Lets take it to the max, people! Must deliver Drop Bears from a portable(?) platform! |

The drop bear described can be situated upon the orbital platform for orbital drops of the ninja drop bears. Thereby allowing for them to be dropped any time, any where in the world.
The orbital drop bear platform is usually protected by a squadron of ninja space drop bear pilots who pilot rocket ships shaped like Eclyaptic trees and armed with Foster Beer can launchers. If one manages to make it through that line of defense there's still the Orbital Drop Bear mines, these buggers are nasty since they sit still in space amongst the debris waiting for the unsuspecting to pass by and getting the drop on ya by detonating their charges. If one manages to get past that and the Orbital drop bear platforms' point defense lasers, then they have to board and fight off the hordes of orbital drop bear marines AND ninja drop bears who haven't been launched yet, to say the least of the Giant Cyberzombie Ninja Drop Bear on the station, but that's an end boss. One usually fights him last if it goes according to plot. Remember, all of this are on a need to know basis from Drop Bear command central. Destroy all those who are not authorized! |

You're welcome. AFAIK, of the current posters, only Fortune admits to being older than I am. I won't say *how much* older, but I celebrated my 41st birthday on May 30th of this year. Although mentally and emotionally, I'm probably closer to 19 or so. ;) --Foreigner |

A lot of us are in your neighborhood, age wise, though.
Hell, I feel 95 today. Four kids under 4. |

;) yeah, I should hope not, otherwise there'd be some serious talks going on in that house hold.
"Honey, you invited the drop bears over and didn't tell me!" "I'm sorry sweetheart, they were just so cute and innocent! I never dreamed that they would take advantage of me! It was that damn eucalyptus wine they kept giving me!" Still waiting on that take out Jray |
