oooh. neat, I'll do it! I'm assuming We'll put the cash in room #37,846, yes, that's right, the TV room
*checks map...let's see...room #37,846...got it*

2)will my bartab get reduced? because it's at 4,750 dollars. most of it was drom that one night where astronuc "forgot" about the drinking age...
Oh, you have so much to learn. :rolleyes: Some bartenders just can't be trusted to run a tab once you're too drunk to count. I was sure Astronuc was above that sort of behavior; are you sure he was the one tallying that night?

Astronuc is trustworthy. I found out yomamma has Zeroitis--a tendency to add too many zeros to monetary figures. The accounting books show he owes only $4.75. Besides, with all the birthdays most drinks have been on the house since the Tiki opened (on 6/13).

Oh, he's confusing currencies again, huh? (BTW, I was very happy before to find a currency on the second site I checked with about a 1000:1 exchange rate to US$ to make the zeros make sense before).

yes, I developed it when I was four... :frown: no cure has been found. I have the most severe case out of 240,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 cases on the US...


wait, I did it again :cry:

WTF?!
"Look what you did, there are zeros all over the place!"

*looks around at all the zeros scattered like sunflower seeds all over the floor*

"Damn, next time use a tissue and say 'excuse me'."

Al Capon, a dark underworld gangster, needs new outlets for his lethal
moonshine, so he orders Ronnie and pride, his most ruthless underlings,
to organise a terror campaign against the Tiki bar, They recruit a gang of
bikers to bust up the place a little, as a show of power, but that is only
the start.
How can you resist the onslaught of Al Capon.

"There seems to be trouble a brewin'..."

*Presses a button on my watch* "KITT, we need you, buddy!"

"Right away, Arctic," you hear the voice say from the watch.

Seconds later, the TikiMobile rolls to the front of the bar, runs over Capon's toes, and scares one of the gangsters http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/hispanic/photogallery/images/Mexico36.jpg .

"How can I help, Arctic," comes a voice from the tank.

* I look over to the barkeep, waiting for further instructions*

Thanks, Boss! :biggrin:

I don't encourage underage drinking. But if one is planning to consume alcoholic beverages, I do advocate 'responsible' consumption.

Now I have to check what we put in yomamma's milk. :confused:

*Surveys the Tiki Bar. Everyone is busy making preparations for "Capon Flambe" getting the grill fired up, scrubbing potatoes, cutting vegetables, mixing sauces...Ah the wonderful aroma. Everyone has learned well from the "Dead Body" thread I see. First we will serve Capon's thugs a Moonbeast or BrainWash. Then... what do we have in the stockpile (WMD, heh heh).*

I don't know about you, but me and Danger rang for a curry about 20 minutes ago. Feel free to disturb everyone else's dinner with your terrorist attack, but leave me in peace, and fetch us a beer while you're at it. There's a good chap...

We do need a bouncer...all we have are lots of applications for the "Soap Dispenser" guy in the ladies room. But, please, no bar fights--take it outside! :eek:

*It's sure gettin' hot in the kitchen...eeeoooow, body parts? I think I'll go serve drinks. Ah, there is brewnog and Danger. Good thing brewnog is the manager and in charge of supplies, because those two drink as fast as it comes in...*

Comment Box: So when will we know the winner for the Caption Contest? Maybe we should do a poll and vote on the top 50 captions and put these in the classics archive.

I can be a bouncer. It wouldn't be much different than my current job.

But I need you to help sell merchandise, to manage logistics and cash security--we just can't spare you! (We need someone who is sober to do these things...)
