RhE is not an empire, so it’s not a rebellion or an overthrow. And I am not interested in conquest; I am an evil services provider. But really, people. The Star Trek universe? Where the major powers in the galaxy are the Federation, Borg, Dominion, Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians, and Breen? Note that six out of seven of those governments will shoot interlopers on sight for no good reason, and theome on seventh produced Wesley Crusher. Like I said: the doors are open. Come on in, take ywhat you want, it’s all good. But while I may murder you out of pique if you’re a dude, at least I’ll be upfront about it. Flyer, not so much. Oh, and I made double-sure all the holesuites are up and running, and all the hookerbots are now programmed to accept any and all command given. Have fun! ---

Really? I mean, isn’t it obvious that this is some sort of ploy by RE to weed out fifth columnists and other unsavory types (like Grape Nut eaters and people who drive with their turn signal constantly flashing)? The fact that Skald is even talking, as opposed to silently raining down doom and destruction, should be enough evidence of this. Given that Flyer is still alive… well, the conclusion is obvious. ---

I’ll make my choice after **Flyer** posts a poll. ---

> [@Flyer](#): > > Anybody who supports me will be rewarded nicely. If pies, cakes, etc are your thing, you will receive a life-time supply. Hmmm, in spite of my previous post, I must say I work for money. Is there a contract to make the above pies and cakes, or other baked goods?
