held
up for a while...

Anyway, we made our timely departure shortly before the German army arrived
to clean up the situation down in Omega. I've been keeping tabs on the concern
that Moonwalker has shown about Morbid Curiosity, and I have an idea about what
might have happened. They are an enigmatic techno/Hardcore band that is
supposedly from New York. About two years ago they released a demo over the
Matrix that became suprisingly popular. Various record companies recieved a
flood of mail asking if they were going to sign Morbid Curiosity. At the start
of the next year, the band showed up at sony/atlantic in New York and said that
they were ready to record. Papers were signed for a one album deal, and on the
same day the band recorded their first and only album "Under the Debris." As
soon as they finished, the band disappeared, leaving only an account number to
send royalties to. Sony/atlantic was apparently in the process of trying to
contact them when the Omega Benefit concert was in planning. If they were true
to form, they showed up and said "we're here for the concert" did their set
then left. In the time between the release of "Under the Debris" and the
Omega benefit, the only "live" appearance they made was in the matrix node
known as Club Deck, where underground bands direct feed performances into the
grid. It is likely that they'll reappear when they want to be released.

It's been hell since I got back, my message buffers were full of job offers
dated from the day I broke into the INN report from Omega. Napalm has been
on the phone all day talking to his numerous "friends" about potential jobs.
He came up with a theory about how the Intrepid survived the water elemental
attack, and had one of his friends test in in a bathtub on a smaller scale.
Basically, his conjuring adept friend set a toy boat afloat and had a water
elemental sink it as trilobite described. The conjurer then had his air
elemental engulf the toy as it went under, providing the toy with a pocket
of air to both protect it and pop it back up to the surface. He thinks that
my "decoy" theory is wrong, and that a greater form air elemental may have been
used to save the Intrepid's bacon, but there's no way we can be sure.

Keep watching the news, I think that Mr. Kelton will be having another
interview with Jacob Marcus today. Enjoy. ]<<<<<

to
obtain the MagnaTech food services toaster number 17, also known as the
infamous "talky the toaster". I thought it would make a nice wedding gift for
CRUSH, in addition to the other things we have in mind... ]<<<<<

his "father"... ]<<<<<
