First of, lets welcome our new cabbage Blivet, you are welcome aboard the Golden.Greenleaf anytime.
I'll start first, Amni here, my ship is currently undergoin' repairs in New York, I'm enjoying myself pretty good in the shopping malls but it's a tad too crowded if you ask me. I've had my hair done, nails polished, back massaged, skin cleansed and my lips waxed. It's time those technicians start hurrying up, im allmost out of flax and I'm getting sick and tired of all those people around me. Ooh, yes before i forget, I'll keep my hands of them shady goods.
*Get away, now its my turn... YES i know!! Allright dear, I'll walk the dog, but first let me talk to them fellers now will ya..*
Sorry for that folks, but she's getting a temper from hanging about in Liberty space. I would like to inform that the Golden.Greenleaf is producing large quantaties of the famous green. These shipments will all be stored on Gran Canaria and will be free for the taking since i can't sell it. I've been to Bafflin to check on the floatin' crystals there, but no red or yellow ones for the taking. Malaclypse, if you're listining, let's pick a point in space where our lines will cross. A nice, shiny vortex would be a pleasant addition to my allready flourishing plantation. I ran out of Kallisti seeds but our Golden.Green experiment is going well, the plants look beautifull and the stuff smacks you in the face when you least expect it. I'll try and pick-up as much of them "One-Day Visitors" as i can, but my hold can only hold so much "potion".
*Dear I'm done, you have anything to say? **Yes, hang on, be right there** *
Boy's its been a pleasure, hope we all meet soon, cus i never see any of you around.
***In stereo***
Bye bye you old cabbage's we be smokin' them greens for ya

Good morning,
I am a fighter pilot based out of the Shikoku system. However, as my ships and skills advance, I have begun looking for a new place to lay my head and brandish my weapons. After flying solo for too long, I have found that it is now time to put my application in with the faction that fits my personality best, and that is TAZ. My current ship is a Raven's Claw decked out with codename weapons among others, but that can be altered if needed. Would I (if accepted) be allowed to fly only specific ships and use specific guns?
Thank you for your time. I am looking forward to your response.
Now, after perusing the above (..and there will be a test..), if you still believe that your personality is suited to the TAZ, you may bury the customary 23 pounds of Flax in a cigar box in your back yard, and you will be contacted for further pineal pummeling and examination.
Your current ship is not acceptable. We do have use for escorts.. they make nice sounds as they accompany our traders about Sirius, thereby relieving the crushing boredom; but we lean towards trade, civilian, and "homeworld" craft for our fleet. But the Raven's Claw is considered by most to be a military craft. We don't do "military".
Please direct any further questions, reservations, or soulsearching to my private comms.

Gentlefolk,
Effective immediately and until further notice, you will place yourself under the command of F-23 Shamus, aboard the [TAZ]O'Shaunessy. You will be involved in a special operation, and will follow his instructions to the letter, as if they were from Eris Herself.
Avail yourselves of fighter or assault-class vessels, if you haven't already. There may be some shooting this time, lads.
John, Riley, Linus, Cid and Bliv, I apologize for the short notice and urgency. Shamus will explain when you report to him. TAZ will get through this, lads. Trust in Goddess, and keep your powder dry.

You got it, Episkoperson! S'that mean I need to bring the Ravenhurst, I guess?
An' I changed my mind from gettin' a Kusari Explorer. Since a flaxload o' Liberty Gunboats've just been decommissioned by the Navy, I'm thinkin' o' headed back to Houston to pick one up fer myself. What can I say? I'm a Zoner through-an'-through, but still a Liberty boy at heart. I happen ta know a fella who's retirin' with his ship, in fact; they got a century of service between 'em, but I figure the ship's still got s'more parsecs left in 'er. Umm, you'll hafta 'scuse the dust bunnies, though. She ain't seen any real combat in decades, but I reckon she'll do the job. Still gonna be called the Ravenhurst!
Gents, please proceed to RV in Bafflin'. I will brief you on our mission in person aboard my ship once you've all assembled. ETM = 72-96 hours. Plenty of time to kiss the wives, girlfriends and pets.
