Meshtak waits as Arcadio attempts to explain the situation
to Max. Finally, he adds on "We're going to get the last
three, soon as Chip tells us where they are." Meshtak stops
to think for a moment, trying to decide what his motivation
for this whole thing is. While it is true that Meshtak is
a generally good draga and will not let evil occur if
it stands within his power to stop it, he is also a
mercenary, and doing something for nothing does not suit 
him. Meshtak finally contents himself with the thought that
once they have picked up the one responsible for all this,
there will no doubt be treasure lying around just ready for
the pick up.
Meshtak turns to look at Chip (meanwhile picking up his shiftsword
again) and opens his mouth as if to speak.
However, before he can say anything, he hears horses...a
LOT of horses, and all heading in the general direction of
the group. As the draga watches, a small contingent of the
Generican army (about 50 men and horses) rides in and
surrounds the band of adventurers. Crossbows are levelled
at the group. 
A man whose mail shows him to be a Lieutenant in the
army looks at the group with disdain. "You will please
accompany us to Glorishand Keep for questioning." He says
in a cold commanding monotone. He looks at Farnham.
Meshtak looks at the pointed death aimed in their
direction. It appears they have no choice.

Alaric explains:

 "While we are heartbound, we have not formally "married".  For a long time, we
were in dangerous lands, and we thought it best to be married when our lives were

He looks over at Khisanth.  "However, I see no reason why we cannot be married

Where the fuck did this shit come from?  Eric, darling, you I've

did you crawl from to get in that inspired follow-up to my message.
This guy comes on saying that skinheads are the only ones justified 
in wearing Doctor Marten's boots (better?), and that others who 
wear them are wannabes.  I have never met someone who went to the 
trouble and expense of getting Docs (it's shorter) just to wear to 
work, if someone has, then cool for him.  Most people I know who have
them are middle class.  Noone has a birthright to music.  It's the 
kids who have credit cards that support indie labels and local bands 
by buying the t-shirts and albums.  Docs have become fashion, as all 
the imitaions out there attest.  I don't think that British podiatris 
t had all the colors like pink suede and gold glitter, or heights like
14's and 20's in mind when he invented them way back when.

      Actually, it is called the National Front. It's leader is Jean-Marie
Le Pen (yeah, yeah, that's a guy's name: Jean=John). These guys are racist
fucks: anti-semite, anti-black, anti-yellow, anti-immigrants if they're not
wealthy. By the way, semite groups a number of people from North-Africa and
the Middle-East (i.e., It's not only jews, but also many muslims. By defn,
semite = kids of Sem (Bible bizz.)). Anyways, next time I go to Paris, I'll
kick Le Pen in the brains for you.
       There's a compilation called 'Cette Machine Sert a Tuer Tous Les Fasc-
istes' (This Machine Kills All Fascists) in which bands from France, Canada,
U.S.A. and elsewhere use Hardcore to fight Racism. A good initiative!

>  in germany,  
>the rise is not only in anti-semetism but in anti-immigrant sentiments.   

       In soc.culture.germany they have a thread called Violence Update in
which they relate the latest Xenophobic violence. Often they mention skinheads
(shame on us) who attack this and that refugee shelter. The Police is often
called, but they just stay there and watch. On the other hand, when anti-racist
people gather in a peaceful demo, the Police comes in with nightsticks and
attempts to disperse them by beating on their heads. Peace is thence not th
e answer. Fight violence with violence!

Actually, "Docs"(nice little cute-ification(doesn't even have an apostrophe)) are made to look tough
wholly for the satisfaction of you and your "bourgeois" friends, and to make your parents shake their

And here I was thinking that they became cool because they could be claimed
as a health benefit on the dole (DHSS covers medical expenses, and the boots
are orthopedic & therefore medical).  My last few pair of loggers cost way more
than the boots of the comfortable unemployed.  Doctor Marten's, the official
boots of the Welfare Scroungers!
They're boots kids!  Nothing more!

[sad story in Modesto deleted]

Hopefully, Metros will clean up its act.  I'm sorry to hear about the crap they
put you through - do let us know if you got paid.

Modesto needs a place like Metros - unless you like the Black Angus Fun Bar
(tm) or the mindless sports/yuppie bars you have no where to enjoy youthful
culture.  (I'm speaking as a guy who went to high school in Modesto - I live in
Los Gatos now - and I visit my dad every once in awhile in Mo-town now.)

Metros could be good, but I have a feeling it will never rise above mediocre. 
I went in last weekend hoping to find some alternative culture, but alas, it
was the same boring music/people (albeit a bit more modern) that populate the
sports bars.  The 'cutting edge' dance floor was playing INXS while the down
stairs dj was spinning J. Jackson!  Unless Metros decides to take a few more
chances - and booking 'Pickle and Fungo Mungo is a step in the right direction
- they will just blend into the Modesto scene and be lost forever.

Modesto did have a good venue for awhile - Dazzle's Underground.  Small place
and the staff was cool.  (Primus played there and I gotta admit it was one of
the best shows I ever saw.)  I have a feeling a smallish _alternative_ concert
place could do quite well in the area.

And while I'm on the subject of Modesto...  my dad and I are in agreement that
the city needs a better music store than the Wherehouse - which has 6 whole
locations.  They have no competition in the area.  I'd love to find out if
Tower would consider opening a smaller version of one of their stores downtown.
 (The new small-sized Tower Records in Chico would be great in the area.)  Does
anyone have any idea how to contact Tower about this?

BTW, I dj at KSCU and play Skankin' Pickle every once in awhile.... :-)

I've never known anyone who bought a pair of Docs (nyah) 
expressly for the purpose of work.  That doesn't mean I 
don't think that they are work boots.  I guess I find 
utility in that they protect my feet and ankles in pits
and such, they're also good for puddles.  As for being 
completely utilitarian, they aren't, which anyone who's
laced up a pair of 14's or 20's will tell you.  Docs are
fashion, if they weren't, there wouldn't be so many 
knockoffs.  I have the feeling that when the podiatrist in
England was creating the things, he didn't have pink suede,
gold glitter, and knee-high boots in mind.  If you want to 
talk working class, I had to get up the scratch to get mine,
no credit cards involved.  It's the kids with credit cards 
who support local bands and scenes by buying albums and shirts.
The struggle can continue and the movement perpetuated if those
in it now can get over their classist and exclusivist attitudes 
and bother to let sincere people know what time it is, instead
of shutting them out.  Music has no birthright.  So Eric, now
that my boots are off the pedestal, I've got nowhere to put it,
