My 6000th post

[Blue Ghost]

*steps up to the podium, clears throat*

Thank you, thank you. I'd like to thank all the little people who got me here, but I can't, because I did it all myself

I thought of something Traveller like and sci-fi like for my 6000th post, but drew a blank.

2001, I had put my Engineering delusions on hold ... drove down to Fry's Electronics, then did a search to see if that strange little RPG I played as a kid and 20-something was still around, and hopefully I wouldn't get that Imperium Games website.

Lo and behold, I arrived here, and someone calling himself Hunter was running the show.

Hunter and others are gone, but Traveller lives, and so do we all.

Grab your Gauss Gun or FGMP, hope in your Type-S and rock on!

*leaves podium to a barrage of cheers*

Why do you people keep breaking into the liquor cabinet?!?

 

[Kilgs]

Live long and prosper!

Why do you people keep breaking into the liquor cabinet?!?

...'cause it's there?

and we wouldn't have to keep breaking into it if you left it unlocked (how inconsiderate of you)

 

[Spartan159]

Hey! he has a bottle of Tokaj Eszencia in here! *Yoink!*

 

[Blue Ghost]

Swordy Excalibur ale for all :smirk:

 

[JimMarn]

A glass of Mateus for me. One port stop in Portugal while I was in the Navy introduced it to me. Nice dry rose'.

And congrats.

*shoves key in the lock, snaps it off, arc welds it in, spot welds the bolt so it can never be locked again*

I give up!

I'd rather have a Guinness or Imperial Extra Stout.

Oh, come on now. There's nothing like a Gungnir Lambic Red with a nice big piece of Svaerdvelder Kirschtorte.

Mmmmm . . .

 

[Jame]

I will have a hard cider and a Zhodani pastry.

 

[lostscout5]

Congrats ghost. { hoists a tankard of Excalibur ale } Cheers!

Stouts tend not to give me migraines. Ales do.

That Impy ale is for posers! Vargr Dark! For the Rebellion!

Stouts tend not to give me migraines. Ales do.

How odd. Same here. Not so much migraines as one pale=guaranteed headache in morning.

Drinking something awful would be Ripple. 85 cent a quart last time I drank some. Really bad stuff. I'm glad there is none of that in the fridge. It could contaminate everything.

That vacuum distilled rum they serve in those Glisten startown bars will knock your socks off.

So here's to 6000 and loose socks! :coffeesip:

 

[SanDragon]

Here's to hot cocoa and crew socks!

 

[Spinward Scout]

Raises a glass of Zilan wine.

"Here's to 7000!"
