If you can hook me up with a ship, I currently have about 5 million credits avaliable. An ROU is Rapid Offensive Unit, rt? I haven't been in one, but I have been in some small fighters and can fight tolerably well. As for bounty hunting, I do anything, especially if you have credits. Just give the word.
*gulps his PGGB and holds hand to his head*
Ok, I think I'll go home now.
*slides a LARGE amount of credits to bartender*

*Walks back in to bar 12 hours later with severe 
* Hey. Damn, that was a strong PGGB . So anyway, I thank you for your hospitality, or at least semblance thereof considering the hour I got in. So, do I have to rent a hangar for my old junker, or how long can I keep it in the landing bays? Can't hyperspace (It'll explode on entry) but it makes a tolerable good apartment. And who's my bounty hunting target? Name, ship, flag, all the essentials. I just like to know who I'm killing sometimes. Harry Potter, huh? good book. See you at the Armory then? Thanks. I'll keep in touch.

Lynne, huh? I finished it in three. Anyway, what do you do around here, exactly? I can't seem to tell other thatn the obvious "lurker" personality. Not looking down, just asking.

Well, technically I'm the barkeep. However *motions to the cantina* there's never enough work for me.
What'll ya have Krans?

Well then. Do you have a ship?

Peter aka Krans Posted Dec 5, 2001
Use yer own, once we've fitted it out. 
Oh... er... a spice liquor on the rocks. Please?

No, I was talking to Lynne. I was wondering if she had her own craft or if she used the cantina's craft.

(sorry about back log, I'm at school all day :P)
*slides Krans his drink*
Well, right now I don't have my own craft. I just borrow the communal ship

As to the backlog, I don't care. Perhaps Krans, but not me. Good luck on getting your own ship. *hands her a 5-credit peice* They're expensive, unfortunately.

Sprechen Sie Deutsch, Krans?

*wishes for a german keyboard as well*

*mentions to Lynne that there's a dusty spare old sublight shuttle which she could have if she wanted*
It'd need a little work to get it up to a respectible standard (that being equivalent to the strength of a galactic-standard capital ship, here at the cantina...) but it should be nice.

In case anyone's wondering, that moderated post said that he's spoken german for two years and his grandmother lived in Austria.

Just you wait til Krans sees what the editor did to my USP footnote in our SA80 article. *shouts at Krans to look at the SA80 article and then at Njan's rant* http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F79323?thread=155806&post=1544404#p1544404 (rant)
