Was in my bunk feeling a tad space-sick from the last adventure (foraging for Mudder's and strawberries) when I heard the rattle of hangers from the coat-locker. Got some more on the crew!
RESET (#47858) and TORTOISE (#47850) are the most recent arrivals to speak to us here on the ramp. (Must be some stowaways in between) Step up, claim your traditional Milk jug and punnet of berries from here atop the mule in its parking slot.
Stow your stuff and come up the scary expanded metal of the stairway and catwalk to the galley, where the buffet awaits your questioning. Mangos, pineapples, hot cheese, fresh bao, wife soup, we have it all. And shimmerwine in the fountain at the after end of the table. As always, watch your feet back there...
And there are ice-planets in many exotic flavors in the bottom shelf of the cooler. Turn in your sticks and strings when you're through.

just a little bumper-upper
Newbs and refugees stand forth, receive your traditional welcoming perks and, today only (cos I couldn't liberate very many undetected) a fresh, ripe Borosian phreep on a doily.

Go for it, Reset! :-)
Looking mighty shiny in that coat.
Don't forget to work out. We may need you for a foraging party after the next marathon.

Just another bumper-upper in case anyone needs a nice coat, a jug of Mudder's, a punnet of strawberries, or one of the occasional bonus items.

What was the address for the old board? Some of it might have been archived on the way back machine.

#47934, Manatee!! That's a big crew, even though we've had a few dropouts.
The coat will look great on you should you find yourself thermally challenged in a minor way.
Yep, that expanded metal brings back memories to me, too, but not of a carrier, more of a land-bound industrial thing. Can you hear the squeak-rattle it makes?
Hope the buffet is to your liking, and also the fresh shipment of ice-planets I'm bringing aboard in a few minutes. Good variety, plenty of hodgeberry and Borosian ginger (a couple of favorites), sweet-and-sour, exotic vanilla, that sort of thing. Check the cooler, bottom shelf.
Oh, and keep toes out from under the fountain end of the galley table.

Someone wanted the url of the old board?
As in http://forums.prospero.com/foxfirefly/start
Or something else?

As a child I was terrified of it - - made me think I was going to get grated like a cheese.

Then there was the time my mother ventured out onto a 2nd or 3rd story platform of the stuff in a skirt. I was up there too and I can guarantee you could see all the way through the structure. One hopes it was too dark inside the skirt to look up and discover something I knew for sure - - she wasn't wearing underwear.

Do you dribble the ice water through the metal?
