**The News In The Guild**
"O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?". Ahh.. what a fine peice of literature. Which reminds us of another fine peice of literature, Yes you guessed it 'The Star', here once again to enlighten you with intresting stories from inside the great Atlantian walls that protect us all. Let's find out what happened today shall we ...
No new members to report about today, however 'mmarrkk2012' came close to leaving the Guild after he was involved in an argument with his neighbour 'Lord Farral'. According to inside sources 'Lord Farral' was reminiscing with 'mmarrkk2012' about the time he was kidnapped by 'Naked Warriors'. He apparently then began to use psyical interpretations of some of the events and the whole scene became very messy. 'mmarrkk2012' was enraged and ordered 'Lord Farral' to stop explaining his exploits in so much ...detail. When 'Lord Farral' refused saying "it's my right to bare all as a Frontier Man" the said argument insued. Luckly The whole mess was sorted out when 'mmarrkk2012' pointed out to 'Lord Farral' that it was his right to 'bare arms' not 'bare all''. We're all glad that got sorted out.
Just 1 advancement in the Atlantis labs today for 'teratel' who enters the LMA. When asked earlier by one of our reporters how he felt after such a huge landmark in technology he replied "I Don't care about any tech advancement just Polish My BITS ta... oh and I don't trade with attackers". Well there you are, a man who clearly dosn't get his bits polished enough.
NOTE: Must polish 'teratel's' bits!!
**Other News**
Just one story today for your reading pleasure (it's rather long) :
'sdragonfun' stormed into a local bar today and demanded, "Gimme a double of the strongest whiskey you got. I'm so mad, I can't even see straight." The bartender, noticed that he was a bit the worse for wear, so poured him a double of Southern Comfort. 'sdragonfun' swilled down the drink and said, "Gimme another one." The bartender poured the drink, but then said, "Now, before I give you this, why don't you let off a little steam and tell me why you're so upset?"
So, 'sdragonfun' began to tell his tale. "Well, I was sitting in the bar next door, when this gorgeous blonde serving wench slinks in and actually sits beside me at the bar. I thought, "Wow, this has never happened before." You know, it was kind of a fantasy come true. Well, a couple of minutes later, the blonde leans over and asks if I'd like to come back to her place to have dinner and to talk for a while. I couldn't believe this was happening, and I hadn't had a good meal in quite a while. I managed to nod my head yes, so she grabs my hand and starts walking out of the bar. This seemed just too good to be true."
"She took me down an Atlantian street to a nice hovel and up to her room. She said to relax, read the Atlantis Star, and that she would get the meal ready in a few minutes. But, as soon as I put my feet up and reclined my chair, I heard some keys jingling and someone starts fumbling with the door."
"The blonde says, 'Oh my god, it's my boyfriend. He must have lost his wrestling match tonight, he's gonna be real mad. Quick, hide!'"
"So, I opened the closet, but I figured that was probably the first place he would look, so I didn't hide there. Then I looked under the bed, but no, I figured he's bound to look there, too. By now, I could hear the key in the lock. I noticed the window was open, so I climbed out and was hanging there by my fingers, praying that the guy wouldn't see me."
The bartender, who looked amazed with the story, said "Well I can see how you might be a bit frustrated at this point."
"Well, yeah, but I hear the guy finally get the door open and he yells out, 'Who you been with now, you witch?' The girl says, 'Nobody, honey, now calm down.'"
"Well, the guy starts tearing up the room. I hear him tear the door off the closet and throw it across the room. I'm thinking, 'Boy, I'm glad I didn't hide in there.' Then I hear him lift up the bed and throw it across the room. Good thing I didn't hide under there either. Then I heard him say, 'What's that over there by the window?' I think, 'Oh God, I'm dead meat now.'
But, the blonde by now is trying real hard to distract him and convince him to stop looking. Well, I hear the guy go into the bathroom and I hear water running for a long time; I figure maybe he's gonna take a bath or something, when all of a sudden, the jerk pours a pitcher of scalding hot water out of the window right on top of my head. I mean, look at this, I got second degree burns all over my scalp and shoulders!"
The bartender said, "Oh man, that would have gotten me mad for sure." "No, that didn't really bother me. Next, the guy starts slamming the window shut over and over on my hands. I mean, look at my fingers. They're a bloody mess. I can hardly hold onto this glass."
The bartender looked at 'sdragonfun's' hands and said, "Yeah, buddy, I can understand why you are so upset". "No, that wasn't what really got me so angry though." exhailed 'sdragonfun'
The bartender then asks in exasperation, "Well, then, what did finally make you angry?"
"Well, I was hanging on the window, and I turned around and looked down--I was only about six inches off the ground."
