I think I’m going for tequila anyway, at least for a day or so. That Day was a bit much. Anyone want to join me? ---

Tequila? Yes, please, a double… Yes, what a day! Nice to see that the day end color was almost consistent with the film - cutting off a hand to see if Bill was human or machine. Not very nice for Bill or the rest of us townies. Pity he didn’t get a chance to ask for a sub - it was quite clear that he just didn’t have time to post… ---

@ **Freudian** , thanks. I thought nights were for bar-chat only. @ **Normal** Tequila? Yes, please, a double… I wonder will **Peeker** be in for some more solo Poker Yes, what a day!

Would that be eight, then, or sixteen? The fumes are still a bit thick back here. ---

Nope, no Pilsner, this is the wild frontier. Best you can get is something slightly dubious that Mahaloth brewed in a shed out back. ---

May I please have a margarita on the rocks? Ordinarily I’d have it frozen, but under the circumstances it’d be best if the blenders remain quiet. ---

and for the geniuses suggesting that a vig target me tonight. this is absolutely freaking optimum scum strategy especially if the scum have a blocker. scum block me, vig fires away and bingo dead doc. it could only be better for scum if the vig is remorseful. in one swoop scum can have town eliminate two of their most powerful roles with the price of a block, if one exists. yeh, that’s wise. ---

The vig thing was so thoroughly debunked after I brought it up that I’m surprised there was a second push for it. ---

Don’t be a twit. Vig targets you, you self protect, and now there’s someone else out there who buys your claim.
