**The News In The Guild**
Hello again Guildies it's 'The Star' here bringing you news, reviews and pullouts (well maybe not the later two) for your reading entertainment. After yesterdays abismal effort we have strived to bring you more news today than ever before ...maybe.. so without futher delay lets proceed.
All is well inside the Guild. With no one leaving there is no space for newcommers so this section is rather quiet today. There were some trading issues earlier at the Atlantis Market Square with a shortage of Dry Herbs, however this matter was soon rectified when 'Ujka Sam' released emergency supplies of Dried Herbs and flooded the market. "The Rasta Warrior to the rescue" he was overherd shouting whilst listening to some very loud Bob Marley Music. Thanks 'Ujka Sam'.
Some activity in the labs also today with 'chemaster' advancing into the LMA. We managed to get some words from him just after hosting one of the biggest banquets known to mankind, "I ..(hicup)..Jusssst want to ssssay...(hicup)...Thank yooooouuuu alllll....(hicup)...For coming toooo my bannnquett..(hicup). We here at 'The Star' love a good party (nudge,nudge) and hope that 'chemaster' feels better soon.
It has been brought to 'The Star's' attention that a few days ago our Guild Founder and Leader 'John Galt' discovered a Diamond vein in his city by his builders as they were digging the foundations for his new church. After some slight mathematical mesurements he has disclosed to 'The Star' that the vein will produce approximatly 300 Diamonds. This is great news for 'John Galt' but even better news for Atlantis. 'John Galt' has decided to kindly donate the Diamonds to the Guild to go towards a new 'Premium' Guild Flag.
However this is no easy decision for one person alone so in order to make sure that Atlantis remains democratic 'John Galt' has posted a Poll on the Guild Forum. You will find it under the POLLS TAB (obviously). We reccomend that ALL GUILD MEMBERS participate in this poll as it could lead to a new unique Guild Flag (which would be the FIRST 'Premium' Flag in Fel Dranghyr). Please read the rules of the poll carefully before you vote and feel free to leave a message in the thread about your decision or any questions you may have. 'John Galt' and everyone at 'The Star' would really appreciate it if you could take the time to help us out.
**Other News**
We seem to have a returning theme with our stories today. Birds. Always Birds. More specificly Parrots. Our Guild Members must sure love em', so get your eyeballs stuck into this little tale:
Two days ago 'moff' recieved a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully grown, with a bad attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was an expletive. Those that wern't expletives were, to say the least, rude. Over the next few days 'moff' tried his hardest to change the parrots attitude by constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and set a good example.
But alas Nothing worked. He yelled at the parrot and the parrot yelled back. He shook the parrot and the parrot just got more angry and more rude.
Finally, in a moment of desperation, 'moff' put the parrot in the freezer. For a few moments he heard the parrot squawk and kick and scream. Then suddenly there was quiet. Not a sound for half a minute. 'moff' was now concerned that he might have hurt the parrot and so quickly opened the freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped out onto 'moff's' extended arm and said, "I believe that I might have offended you with my rude language and actions. I will endeavor to correct my behavior. I really am truly sorry and beg your forgiveness."
'moff' was astonished at the parrots change in attitude and was about to ask what had made such a dramatic change when the parrot continued, "May I ask what the chicken did?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'wizofwoz' and 'seamonkey' have been sitting out on a lake all day long, ice fishing. 'wizofwoz' has been having no luck at all but 'seamonkey' has been pulling fish after fish out of his hole in the ice. 'wizofwoz' finally leans over and asks 'seamonkey' what his secrect is.
"mmmmm mmm mm mmm mmmm mmm mmm" mumbled 'seamonkey'.
"I'm sorry, what did you say" said 'wizofwoz'.
"mmmmm mmm mm mmm mmmm mmm mmm" mumbled 'seamonkey'.
"I'm sorry, I still didn't understand you" said 'wizofwoz'.
'seamonket' spat something into his hand and said "You've got to keep your worms warm".
