>>>>>[And I thought you couldn't get decent ribs west of the Mississippi.
I'll check out this here Babba O Louies place, Doc X, and thanx for the tip.
Oh, hey, I'm sorta at loose ends right now, seein' as how my load sorta got
fragged. Not my fault, it was fragged before I ever got there. Bad security
on the other end. Anybody headin' eastbound need a lift? I can get you
through tribal lands and into the Confederacy in about two and a half days.
Got room for three people, more if they're nats or elves (they take up less
room than us orks) or a coupla good sized packages. Good rates, some people
think I'm kinda pricey but you gotta pay for the ammo and the upkeep on the
vehicle, and you know, you get whatcha pay for. Oh, and Gargoyle, I dunno
what Adillo would be doin' with that rig, but it kinda reminds me of a rigger
I knew back in Davidsford. Got hisself about three-quarters geeked when a
heat-seeker hit his van. I told him his baffles were leaking, but nobody
listens to me. Anyway, his DocWagon contract paid to have a new body cloned
up, but it took a couple months for the process, and he got antsy bein' off
the street. So he takes this big combat drone, and puts in a life support
tank, loads what's left of hisself into the tank and goes out on a run. Wired
his deck into the drone, used the facial nerves to control it. Man was hell
on treads in a firefight, runnin' his van (the new one he let me do the
baffles on) and his drones at the same time. Dunno what happened to him; took
a big run and I never heard of him again. Geeked, most like. Drek
happens.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Death, wonder how much they want for one? Like I said, we could of
used
those suits when I was working street patrol up in Trolltown. One of the
reasons I quit the force was because I got into it with a drunk Troll and
couldn't get backup. Cost me four cracked ribs and a sprained wrist.
'Course, the scrot that caused the problem wound up in Metro General -- funny
how resisting arrest will do that.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Not to be foolish, but why not just cut his drekkin'
finger off? It isn't like he can't get it replaced rather easily.
After all, it IS only ONE digit *GRIN* Doc X, you by chance, wouldn't
be needing some good muscle would you? I need to start financing
myself again]<<<<<
