Wow, the sugared water is getting quite popular these days... *sets her bag on the counter, sighing and putting Mountain Dew on her mental list of things to buy*

**Wallks in quietly and sits in a far corner with her books**

Well, I'm outa here!

*Nods head at Spar and Gide*

Um, I'm not really on the clock. I just stopped by to see if Sparren, the owner, was here. She seems to be avoiding me these days. Oh well, not your problem.

Sucks, doesn't it? The hard part is not knowing why. Or being to dense to figure it out.

How goes the battle?

*sees Happi come in*

Hey Hap, how goes it?

Thankee Vex. Great stuff. I bought a copy of The Da Vinci Code. I am halfway through it. Interesting book. How's life?

Interesting book, no? And life is good. Thanks for asking. How are things with you and Mr. Sark? None of my business, of course.

Funny you should ask. Sent me a card the other day. He is kinda sweet, when you break through his layers. I am now convinced he has a crush. The weird thing is, I think I am beginning to feel the same way.

dp

Artemis? There you are. Wouldn't mind if we have a little chat, would you? There is something I need to tell you.

Oh... Vex, is it? Earl Grey with lemon.

Here you are, sir. Artemis was just asking about you.

Judge Rules Part of Patriot Act Unlawful

For the first time, a federal judge has declared unconstitutional a section of the USA Patriot Act that bars giving expert advice or assistance to groups designated foreign terrorist organizations.

In a ruling handed down late Friday and made available Monday, U.S. District Judge Audrey Collins said the ban is impermissibly vague in its wording.

The U.S. Justice Department is reviewing the ruling, spokesman Mark Corallo said in a statement from Washington.

Corallo called the Patriot Act - the federal anti-terrorism statute passed in the aftermath of Sept. 11 - "an essential tool in the war on terror" and asserted that the portion at issue in the ruling was only a modest amendment to a pre-existing anti-terrorism law.

David Cole, a Georgetown University law professor who argued the case on behalf of the Humanitarian Law Project, declared the ruling "a victory for everyone who believes the war on terrorism ought to be fought consistent with constitutional principles."

"It Is the first federal court decision declaring any part of the Patriot Act unconstitutional," he said.

The case before the court involved five groups and two U.S. citizens seeking to provide support for lawful, nonviolent activities on behalf of Kurdish refugees in Turkey.

The Humanitarian Law Project said the plaintiffs were threatened with 15 years in prison if they advised groups on seeking a peaceful resolution of the Kurds' campaign for self-determination in Turkey.

The judge's ruling said the law, as written, does not differentiate between impermissible advice on violence and encouraging the use of peaceful, nonviolent means to achieve goals.

"The USA Patriot Act places no limitation on the type of expert advice and assistance which is prohibited and instead bans the provision of all expert advice and assistance regardless of its nature," the judge said.

The ruling specified that the plaintiffs seek to provide support to "the lawful, nonviolent activities" of the Kurdistan Workers' Party and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, an advocate group for the Tamil people in Sri Lanka. Both groups are on a list issued by former Secretary of State Madeline Albright in 1997 of "foreign terrorist organizations."

In Sri Lanka, the Tamil Tiger rebels have been engaged in a two-decade civil war that has killed more than 65,000 people. Turkey's military has been battling Kurdish rebels seeking autonomy since 1984, a fight that has left some 37,000 people dead.

Under the Patriot Act, the U.S. prohibition on providing "material support" or "resources" to terrorist groups was expanded to include "expert advice or assistance."


They ruled it unconstitutional, but for the WRONG REASON!!! Not this mumbo-jumbo crap, and actually there were still wrong on it!!! Giving any type of aid/advice to groups labeled terrorists is unconstitutional!!! What they should do is amend the part that allows the gov't to spy upon American citizens and LEGAL aliens, because by spying on them, that violates their right of privacy. Though ILLEGAL aliens have no rights to begin with, so the gov't can spy all they want on them . . .

Let's give a big round of applause. Thank you for that lovely oratory. And that concludes another Monday open mike night...

Artemis, good to see you. How are you doing?

*prepares hot chocolate with a dollop of whipped cream and places on napkin.*

How goes the battle?

*sees Happi come in*

Hey Hap, how goes it?

Refill on hot chocolate. Man, a lot of server problems last night... could hardly get a post through...oops. Oh, and Mr. Sark, what was it you needed to talk about?

Oh, yes.... ahem... erm, Artemis... I was wondering if you would like to go to dinner tomorrow. If you don't mind.

Here you are. So, how have you been?

*Wanders in looking as confused as usual*

Hey Vex. I'll take my usual. How's it going?

Hi Artemis. It's going pretty well. This hobby of mine has become a full time job, but I'm not complaining. The tips are pretty good.

*puts tip jar on counter. makes hot chocolate with whipped cream topping and presents to Artemis*

Ah...Vex, Ol' boy, I'll have Chateau Pertrus of an acceptable vintage, preferably '82. {returns his attention to Artemis}

*Wanders in looking as confused as usual*

Hi TO, glad you could make it! Congrats again on the new place. What can I get for you? It's on the house.

*jumps up on counter and shouts*

My apologies to all of you. Your "server" should never be this slow. I will do my best.

Hi TO, glad you could make it! Congrats again on the new place. What can I get for you? It's on the house.

Hmm? Oh sorry for the delay in reaction, I'm a little slow at the moment. You don't need to congratulate me for anything, I simply move with the store I don't influence it. I'd kind of like some wine today, you probably know more about it than I do so surprise me on the specifics.

Lovely. Thank you.{turns to Artemis} Artemis, dear, where would you like to go tomorrow?

Lovely. Thank you.{turns to Artemis} Artemis, dear, where would you like to go tomorrow?

You choose. I must be off. G'night Vex. See you, Mr. Sark. *gives him a quick kiss on the cheek, surprising him.) Night all.

Hello, people. I'm El Pollo Del Demonio. :insert evil laugh and cough here:

Good night.

{Caught off guard by kiss, shakes himself} Night, Artemis dear.

{Turns to Vex} Charming, isn't she?

I will do that. Do you prefer dry or sweet? Red or white?

How about a sweet red?

Charming, isn't she?

Quite. Where you taking her?

How about a sweet red?

Try this. It's a nice little Rioja from Spain, a Marques De Caceres 2000, not too sweet. Let me know how you like it.

post # 1,000 :D :wink:

I know this little Italian place with some heavenly fettucini alfredo...and even better wine. I think she will like it.

Ok, *slightly apprehensive, takes a sip, eyes widen slightly* it is slightly stronger than I'd imagined but still very good. Thank you very much Vex.

You know, Italian happens to be my specialty. No one, and I mean no one, makes better fettucini alfredo than I do. I can make it with my eyes closed.

I'm certain your trattoria serves excellent fare as well.

What up. Lots of new people in here I see.

Ok, *slightly apprehensive, takes a sip, eyes widen slightly* it is slightly stronger than I'd imagined but still very good. Thank you very much Vex.

Your quite welcome. A Rioja Rose may be perfect for you if this one seems a bit heavy.

'Night Hap. Congrats on #1000!

Adios, Mr. Happy!

*plops down on the sofa and cracks open a Dr. Pepper. long, cold drink.*

Mmmmm....nice to be off my feet.

*slowly opens eyes. rubs stiff neck from sleeping on sofa all night. pours out half of a bottle of flat DP and puts on coffee.*

Let's splurge and break out the Kona...

*Strolls into store, with a smile on her face* Hello everybody. *settles into a chair and prepares to finish The Da Vinci Code*

*comes out from the back of the store*

Why, good morning Artemis. You look like the cat that ate the canary.

*Walks in with a slight smirk, perhaps an attempt at a smile*
Good morning everyone.
*Pulls out "Till We Have Faces" and sits down to read*

Hi TO! Good morning to you. Is there anything I can get for you? Lucky for you I now work 18 hour shifts...

*comes out from the back of the store*

Why, good morning Artemis. You look like the cat that ate the canary.

Hehe. Good morning to you, too. I guess I am pretty happy. How are you this morning?

How are you this morning?

Tired. Worn out in fact. The owner of this establishment works me like a dog. But I can't complain too much...the tips can be decent. Is there anything you would like?

*nonchalantly puts out tip jar*

Eighteen hour shifts? I need to put more money in your tip jar... I'll take some Assam Tea*preferably directly from leaves but if you only have tea bags that's fine.

*Digs out a meager tip and puts it in the jar* I'd offer more but I have financial problems of my own, sorry.

*laughs* I'll take a hot chocolate. *sticks a thick wad of bills into the tip jar*

*prepares tea for TO and digs tip out of jar*

Really, I just kid around about the tips. You keep it.

*laughs* I'll take a hot chocolate. *sticks a thick wad of bills into the tip jar*

Hot chocolate it is. *eyes new money in jar* Extra whipped cream for you!

*sips hot chocolate* Don't mention it. Mr. Sark gave me a raise. And we all know what a hard-worker you are.

No, it's yours. As much as I enjoy whining I have plenty to live on. Thanks for the tea.
*Goes back to C.S. Lewis*

Ladies, you both have fresh drinks. Please make yourselves comfortable. TO this is Artemis, Artemis this is Traha Odj.

I have to run to the bank (for real) but I will be back in a flash. Get acquainted and if you play nice, I'll whip you both up some lunch when I return.

Ciao!

Later Vex. Nice to meet you TO. *returns to The Da Vinci Code*

Nice to meet you as well Artemis.
*Sips tea, then continues reading "Till we have Faces"*

*returns from errand carrying a bag of goodies from The New French Bakery*

Ta da! I have returned!

Who needs a refill?

Welcome back Vex. *Glances at tea cup* I do appear to be empty, so if you wouldn't mind...

Hmm, I'll take the tea and one roll as well. Thank you very much.

Glad to be back. And I don't mind in the least. Assam was it? An excellent tea...sweet and smooth.

Are you hungry? I could fix you a sandwich if you like. I brought back some French sandwich rolls that will melt in your mouth.

Hmm, I'll take the tea and one roll as well. Thank you very much.

You aren't a vegetarian, are you?

*prepares another cup of Assam tea and sets it down next to TO.*

*Wanders in, bleary eyed*

Hey everybody...what'd I miss?

*Staggers behind counter*

*Wanders in, bleary eyed*

Hey everybody...what'd I miss?

I'm not really a vegetarian Vex, but I've never cared for meat and I react against most kinds. If the French rolls are filled then maybe I'd better pass.

Pre-filled? No, no, nothing like that. Never, ever. I could make you a nice veggie sandwich. Cucumber, onion, tomato, lettuce, some Havarti cheese, a little red wine vinaigrette maybe. Yes?

Vex you continue to impress me. They pay you far, far less then you deserve. That sounds as close to perfection as could be managed. Please do as you say. I should leave all my choices up to you in the future.

*puts together veggie sandwich for TO and brings out to table with a few garnishes*

A few tasty little French breakfast radishes and homemade Kosher dill pickles...made 'em myself. Bon appetit!

Thank you very much Vex. *Takes a bite* It's excellent.

*Closes The Da Vinci Code, feeling satisfied for finishing the book* That was good. *Glances at watch* Hmm, I've been here a while.

{Looks through the shop window and enters}

Artemis, dear, ready to go? I got the reservations and everything.
{Motions to a black Mercedes outside.} We should leave now if you want to be on time.

*walks in*

Hey everybody ! :)

Okay then. Lets go. *grabs Sark by the arm and half-walks, half-drags him out the door.*

*so long Artemis, and good luck tonight*

*offers them tissue boxes*

Here, take some tissues.

Hiya kiddies! What's happenin'?

Hola, Rosa! Not a whole hell of alot happenin' here. You?

'Bout the same...that is to say, nothing at all. I'm once again up too late and I'm sure I'll regret it in the morning, but oh well!

I have the freakin' insomnia. :x

Me too! Hurrah! Or, if it isn't too saucy, huzzah!

If I'm lucky, my sis will beat me up-side my head and knock me out so I can get some sleep. I doubt that's gonna happen though.

Yeah, my obnoxious sister has at least stopped her noise, but I still feel no urge to sleep!

The bad thing is, my sister's sick so I'll most likely be taking care of her rather than sleeping.

Ew that's gross. I'm sorry... maybe you'll be next and your immune system will force you to sleep (how positive, I know).

I've done it before when she had the flu. With my dad gone and my mom busy as ever, I'm going to be more busy.

I've done that...no fun. I'm recovering from sickness, but instead of doing the smart thing and going to bed, I stay up talking to god knows who.

I usually don't have this problem during football season. Running into big Defensive Linemen can tire you out. Now that football season's over, I'm going to be staying up late for a while.

Im alone!! all alone! no family near by-- you guys stop complaining about your family! once you leave them you will feel like sh|it!

i havent seen them for 5 months and miss them a lot! its a lot better now, but around the second month was homesickness for real!

man, id give anything to see my little sibs again!

I'm sure you're right, but I can't really help bitching about it while I'm here...Lang you play football?

Yeah, I'm a Running Back.

I'm not in the same boat you are, Kisar. My dad's the only one leaving and won't come back til 2006 or something.

Well that's cool. I don't understand football at all but good for you anyway. :D

lan`s a footballer, best sport in the world and i shall smite anyone who sayth otherwise.


*smite*

*smite*

*forgive*

*smite*

*cowers before Kisarazu's might* Sure, whatever you say!

There's nothing better than the smell of sweat and pig skin. It smells like...victory.

yuck!

*smite*

that was for saying sweat!

yuck!

no, i like to watch, not smell like pigskin and throw sweat.

eh?

*smite*

shut up! :wink:

Hell, can't blame a football player for bein' a football player. And no, I ain't gonna shut up.

Continuing in that thread, you can't blame a girl for not really caring about football...right? But I watch it nonetheless.

*smites toe*

ouch!

I don't blame ya! :D

Thankee. That's good, cuz other things are just more interesting to me.

That's okay. People just have different interests.

How tolerant of you. So, how are things?

is your team any good lan?

my high school`s team in US is really really bad. They won like 2 games out of the past 200 or something like that... :(

We're the 2nd best in town in the eyes of some people here. We consider ourselves the best because we won against the best in town a few months ago. It was a brutal game though. I got a sprained ankle and had to sit out in the 4th Quarter. Good thing it was the last game of the season.

Things are grand, Rosa. You?

I'm actually in the midst of conditioning for softball...so things are generally tired. Tired, but grand.

My sis plays softball. I usually have to stay to be the bat boy.

Hahahaha...we don't have a batboy...probably a good thing considering the girls on the team are sluts and would hook up with him in a minute... :)

The girls on her team are picky, that's why I don't really like it. They want this bat, that one, this one, no that one.

ill be the batboy!

wait, that wasnt right at all!!

*screams in terror*

Well, I must go to bed, even if I cant sleep...tradition demands it.
Have fun with your insomnia, y'all.

Adios, Rosa!

Hasta luego!

buenos dias!

eh?

お休みなさい！

thats better...

Uh, what you said.

soooo, who is still here??

Moi!

was that french!

*recoils in disgust*

ewwww! :shock:

Mais, don worry. I only talk like this sometimes. :P

well, if its American` french thats ok, its not the language that scares me. Just parisians and quebecois (sp?).

you sound like gambit! you know, from x-men. that was a great show...

That was Cajun French. I used to watch X-Men. It was a good show.

cajuns are cool, havent met any- but you know how it is...

are you cajun or spanish, or neither- just like using french and spanish??

I'm a Cajun with a substantial ammount of Spanish in me. That's why I speak Spanish and Cajun.

really? what spanish? my mum is from Colombia via/ spain, you?

Some of ancestors were from the Florida territory, controlled by the Spanish, when the Acadians (Cajuns) arrived in Louisiana from Acadia (Nova Scotia). Some of my Acadian ancestors messed around with some Spanish folks. I have close cousins in Spain, too. I have tons of cousins in Mexico and Argetina

sweet!! Ill probably be having a baby soon in Japan... wait, shouldnt have said that! :?

I have a cousin in Japan. Only, he's not a citizen. He's stationed there in Okinawa. In short, he's a Marine, which we have alot in the family. Anywho, that means we might get Japanese cousins because his girlfriend there is Japanese.
