Wow! HitsHerMark, you are one of my new heros. I bet the big schlub *still* doesn't believe it happened to him. If only everyone were as proactive toward rude people...!

Nearly ending up at the mercy of a fat girl less then half your size as several classes spewed forth people would give anybody pause I'm sure...

The Apiary's new whipping boy... I think that I'd like to see the torch of the Apiary's whipping boy be passed from weephun (who I think has defended himself quite sufficiently) to "the jock." This jock deserves some notoriety, I'd say. Maybe even a T-shirt.

Just a thought, HHM, but you might want to see if you can find a pair of steel-toed workboots. I find that not only do they afford your toes a modicum of protection, but they make great defensive weapons too.
Swift kick in the nuts/knees, anyone?

Macavaty... Already got a pair. B)
Actually, I want to clarify something...
[soapbox]
I didn't just try to put this guy into an arm lock simply be cause he was rude.
If he had just grabbed the phone from me and hung it up, that would have been a more gray area... But I probably wouldn't have done much more then called him a nasty name and walked...
But he touched me , he took a hold of my hand, a total stranger, and forced me to hang up the phone.
That, at least in the state of California, constitutes assault . And I was protecting myself.
Do not get into physical altercations with people if you can help it. No matter how rude they are.
You just don't touch people.

Message for Melissa Just a quick note from Melissa, at the 11:51 axon. She asked me to repeat this to the crew (paraphrased, as no recording available):
"Two days ago I suffered a severe breach. You may not be able to rely on me in the future. But, this excersize has given me the confidence that, even if I am lost, you will be able to carry on and complete our mission without me."
I told her yes, we'd do the best we can, and she thanked me for not disappointing her.

No!!! We can't lose Melissa! ARG!
So what, is Durga fighting back now or something? Maybe the SP has decided that passively hiding isn't what she wants to do.

Wasn't Sunday when PF !transmitted his Sector 5 stuff to Durga? Or, at least, when that email was sent to him making those extra .wavs on Recipe3 available?
Or, I may just be a doofus who doesn't read well when sleepy.

Live call at Fargo Note: I tag w/ [para] where I' not exactly sure, & may be paraphrasing
I call pDK to get current relay code 4 min before the call.
The phone rings about 30 sec before I was expecting (prior calls matched verison time practically to the second). I pick up. Dead air & I'm thinking that it's already a blown deal, but I figure I'd try.
self: Hello?
M: [para]States something rather standard about looking for crew members before asking what we must reveal.
self: The Truth
M: Good. Is there anyone else around?
self: [para] there aren't any other crew members, but
M: what your saying is you have to be careful?
self: yes
M: [para]She says she understands & relates previously stated info regarding the breach & asks if I would continue the mission without her.
self: I would attempt to do so to the best of my abilities.
M: Good. She then asked for my contact info.
self: supplies number & verfies when she reads it back
M: You understand that I can't contact you directly, but will continue to transmit weekly?
self: yes
M: what is your name?
self: pikalek
M: spell it
self: p-i-k-a-l-e-k
M: what is your rank
self: ensign
M: do I have a nickname?
self: yes, it is 'random'
M: how did you get that nickname?
self: unpredictibility
M: [para] ask me to elaborate
self: I deviated from my previously assigned schedule to come to the axon.
M: so you can be trusted?
self: yes
M: I need to ask you for the relay code.
self: I can give you the most recent one I have
M: yes
self: "JoJo is running fiercely to the phones"
M: [para] you have done well in this field exercise and will be rewarded.
self: thank you
At this point the line went null (I hope, I'm still afraid I didn't wait long enough, but I had to leave before I was missed at work), I contacted pDK & relayed that I used the relay code & was not asked to generate a new one.
I'd like to send a big thank you to:
Shad0 for answering my live call question; for a brief moment I almost put the axon off until tomorrow.
pDK for coordinating the relay code transfers
