Sunder with the AC20 and all the SRM4s is a lot of fun.

Prime, right? No C3? Maybe I should have that as the first company's Sunder config.

That final lance absolutely screams for a BNZ-X.

Have you secured a figure yet?

A BNZ-X mini? That'd have to be converted. If you mean have I bought any Drac 'mechs, I purchased a company last week.

It's from the last paycheck not subject to stringent congressional oversight. Shortly I can expect funding to be transferred from defense spending to social programs like room and board, and cockatiel feed, which is, it turns out, obscenely expensive.

I believe that in an emergency cockatiel can be turned into a single use cat feed. This may be along the lines of the string of suggestions that any esoteric or roleplay-heavy AFV got in the *otW articles would make a great carbomb!

Jellicoe the cat has been inherited by my brother, as I was politely informed that if any harm befell Peaches, it would be the end of my marriage.

Seems to me the cat could be your best friend, then. ;)

He makes an excellent point.

Ready to do battle for his vanquished Clan
Stalking the Falcon Khans, who would remake us
His actions, the Wolf incarnate

Have to get used to that type of thing, dealing with Team Davion on a regular basis. ;)

I normally tell our (black) cat not to question which I love more, my laptop or her

Ditto tea versus the cat - she might not like the answers!

It's funny how cat fur defies the Law of Conservation of Mass. I can always tell when the cats have been fighting as there is more cat fur on the floor than the cats, who show no bare patches, could have had prior to losing any.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised to find out my cat sheds more than her bodyweight every year.

Y'know, we've been in this house five years and we still find dog hair from the previous owners German Shepherd.
Delivered from the blast,
Last of a line of lasts,
The pale princess of a palace cracked.
And now the kingdom comes;
crashing down undone,
And I am a master of a nothing place,
Of recoil and grace.

That's good enough to be a Merle Haggard lyric.
