A really short message here, and hopefully a better one than the
first.

Being new to this list I think it's better to say hi to all of ye
before sending in any reply's.

Well here it goes: _Hi!_

Ummm, SPike?

NEVER initiate the Bull Bot 6.66... He's the EVIL Bull Bot :]

Though I am planning to initiate that particular evil program at some point
in the near future <evil grin> But not for here... :]

Anyways, I've been a tad too busy lately to actually do Bull Bot duty :(
Sorry :/

But for everyone who's new in the last month:

WELCOME :]

Bull

Well, just between us:

The Bull-Bot is a secret code known only to the Enlightened Few here at
the ShadowRN list. If you send the above lines to FASABull@***.com, along
with your name, address, credit card number, mother's maiden name and
favorite seafood, you'll get a free copy of the SR3 Hardcover. Also a
coupon good for fifteen pounds of carp at your local fishery.

But don't tell ANYONE else on the list! Remember, we're supposed to
pretend that those SR3 hardcovers are scarce!


Have Fun, (No, this isn't fishy; it's just a bunch of Bull)

Are you kidding? Near the end, my last campaign was almost nothing BUT
conspiracy theory. And for a while the PC's practically became one.

(Lesson Learned: Even if your intentions are good, showing a small-corp
CEO a briefcase full of gold bars and saying "We'd like to help you
protect your company" is NOT the way to win his trust.) >8->

I wouldn't worry about it. It's a rather old in-joke.
You might see it's effects once the list's calmed down a bit, and Bull has
more time on his hands...

Ah, so I get it... It's a joke then?
