hello everyone...ahhhhh! i feel better after having had some food. And a Dezzan delight.

*looks at DF and smiles*

i saw what you called me in the other thread ;)

*goes and gets a drink*

anyone want anything from the bar?

the gelatonous blob or peachyness?

ok then, here goes, this is one of my favourite songs of all time
*starts to play the piano and begins singing*

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothin's gonna come my way

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Oooo, sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

*applause, applause*

*finishes up massage and adds his own applause*

the gelatonous blob or peachyness?

uhuh! that's the one ;)

*Muses to self*

never been called that before...it's kinda...nice...in a way

in my defense, you did kinda go all jello on me.

*goes and sits back in the corner*

No need to get defensive DF

Glad you got your 'puter problems sorted Tink.

I'm sat out in the garden doing this...it's really nice except for all the wasps. They seem to be very interested for some reason

*shutters*
i hate wasps.
*glances down a Gide*
i think she's dosed off.

i need tea and chocolate *goes behind the bar and dissapears into the kitchen then reappears ith a brew and a big bar of dairy milk then goes back to the corner*

you're being very cornerish today Tink...you ok?

*goes and sits back in the corner*
*Steals her place at the piano*

If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to his face
If you were faced with him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face what would it look like
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in jesus and the saints and all the prophets

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
He's trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if god was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

you're being very cornerish today Tink...you ok?
i'm ok i guess, Lang Lang's going on Tuesday though

i'm ok i guess, Lang Lang's going on Tuesday though

*looks sympathetic*

Aw Tink...not a lot i can say to that...i know he's special to you...he'll be back eventually

*gives Tink a hug*

*looks sympathetic*

Aw Tink...not a lot i can say to that...i know he's special to you...he'll be back eventually

*gives Tink a hug*
*hugs back* thanks, i know he'll be back but 3 months is a really long time!

yeah...seems like forever doesn't it?

and then suddenly he'll be back and it'll be all gone.

I'm sure going to miss him - he's one of us and if any of us are missing it's not quite right somehow

yeah, he was the 1st person that i spoke to on NS, it'll be really weird without him around

you go back a long way then...nice that you are still both around.

can't remember who the first person i spoke to was...

The first person I ever talked to was Spoffin, he does not really talk much anymore

*Prue starts clearing up and tidying the place*

*feeling happy she starts singing to herself...then after the jobs are done sits down at the piano and starts playing*

*notices there's not much cleaning to do... decides to sit and listen to her CD player*

Howdy!

Hi Lang

*waves to Lakren*

How's things Lang...don't seem to have seen much of you today

Been busy. I can stay for a while longer. Til the 9th. :) You?

I can't stay on line until the 9th...i'm going to bed in a few minutes ;)

Do you leave on the 9th Lang? I'll miss ya :(

Aye, August 9th. And I'll miss y'all too. :(

Do you know any of the others who'll be at boot camp?

My friend. He signed up yesterday.

*looks puzzled cos now posting as Melody!*

there'll be one familiar face then :)

i always find it helps.

anyways Lang, it's late and i've gotta go to bed. Good night, sleep tight (when you get there!)

*waves and leaves*

Night night!

**wakes up and stretches**

*walks in*

hi!

Hi Kortana, haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?

**jumpsas vex appears*

*becomes very paranoid...*

**lies down and pretends to goback to sleep**

*sits down at the piano*

*stares at the keys*

**Sighs, gets up with the blanket around he shoulder and hugs vex from behind**

Gidetisms...hello. I apologize for giving you a scare.

*pushes the door open* *sees the scene... sighs and rolls her eyes, making her way back out onto the lawn* *flops down on the grass and looks up at the sky*

*enjoys the hug*
Gidetisms...hello. I apologize for giving you a scare.
**notices spar**

whats wrong with her? Did I do something wrong?

You did nothing wrong. And I'm sure Sparren is fine.

*is unsure*

Why are you so jumpy?

wow....cut right to the chase...well........I've been fighting with my parents all week, and it always makes me jumpy, I keep expecting some one to come and start yelling at me....its tupid I know, I thinkI should go...

**Gets up and heads for the door**

*rubs his forehead with his hand as Gide walks away*

*wonders who else he can cheer up...*

*heads for the exit*

*eyes half closed, hears someone walking by* *blinks and looks up*

Er... hallo, Gide. Not staying for a while?

*Walks up to Paradise Club, nearly tripping over Lakren*

Whoa, sorry...didn't see you there.

*pulls her feet up to her chin and shrugs* 's all right. It seems like I'm invisible to everyone.

*pulls her feet up to her chin and shrugs* 's all right. It seems like I'm invisible to everyone.
Maybe because it's dark outside and you're laying on the ground. ;)

That very well could be...

Or you're invisible. Either way...

You're so logical. Have I seen you in a dream before? *squints*

You're so logical. Have I seen you in a dream before? *squints*
I dunno. You tell me.

...or not.

*Prue arrives at the club, opens the doors and windows and tidies up*

*Rooting around in the cupboard under the stairs, she finds a large glass vase, fills it with water and arranges the large bunch of flowers in it*

*The flowers are from her home and include some sweet smelling lavendar from her herb garden*

*She puts them on the corner of the bar, steps back to look, shakes her head and moves them to the low table in front of one of the sofas*

*Collecting a few things for lunch she goes out the back and settles at a table with a large umbrella*

*Walks in dressed in long khaki slacks and a hawaiian shirt.*

Anybody here? I've been gone for two days.

*Prue walks in*

uh? Thought i heard Cuneo in here

*looks round, shakes head and heads off back outside to tidy up the flower bed*

Ach. *wakes up on the lawn with an extremely sore back* *limps inside*

Knockknock... Anybody home?

Hi hon...

*sees Lakren is limping*

whatever have you done?

*walks in*

hello

ello all.

Hi.

*sits down on a couch*

can i get anyone a drink?

Hi Tink...

not much business tonight...are we still on for the pool evening tomorrow?

er...is that pool as in the game or pool as in the swimming pool? Need to know so i can dress accordingly

I'll take a pina colada, please... *lies down on the couch and closes her eyes* Ow... Soreness...

swimming pool and yes it is

*mixes Sparren a pina colada and takes it over to her* are you ok

I think I'll be all right, thanks... *takes a sip of her drink* Yummy.

ok, but maybe from now on you should stick to sleeping in a bed rather than on the lawn

we've got a coupla beds upstairs Lakren...for those who are too...merry to get home :)

no need to sleep on the lawn.

Perhaps you'd like your back massaging?

*Walks up and into the club.*

Hey girls, how is everybody?

Sparren are you okay?

Hi Cuneo...it's really quiet tonight.

Seems like everyone has found fun elsewhere...

*Puts on some soft music*

Yep, maybe they have.

Would you like a drink Melody?

Sparren are you okay?

Depends on your definition of okay.. ;)

For anyone in this club Sparren, my definition of okay is in perfect form and not needing anything from me. Because if you aren't at that status then I should do something about it.

I'm just sore from sleeping outside last night.. that's all...

hey Cuneo!

Yep, maybe they have.

Would you like a drink Melody?

Sweetie...Dezzan is Prue

MPTY is Melody...i moved her into The Beach when Cuneo asked me to move Dezzan there. Dezzan stays in West Pacific

i only post as Prue on the NS forum...

And yes please, i'd love a drink *smiles*

Hi Tink!

How are you?

Hey what do you think we should pay ourselves as CEO and CFO? I was asking Melody but she's not sure what the going rate is.

Technically, the CEO/CFO's of the world receive an average compensation of like 9 million. But we're trying to just figure out base salary.

Sorry. I was confused because I was talking to you as Melody on the regional message board.

*Makes two pina coladas and hands one to Prue.*

don't ask me about money Cuneo, i have no idea!

Dangit, who can I ask?

You can't ask me about money, but you can always give me some... ;)

... okay, that didn't work.

dunno

*hops over the bar and makes herself a cup of tea*
can i get anyone anything whilst i'm here?

You can't ask me about <money, but you can always give me some... ;)

... okay, that didn't work.

you'll get some money when you do some work lol

You'll get your paycheck same time everyone else does Sparren.

For now you'll have to do without it though.

You can't ask me about money, but you can always give me some... ;)

... okay, that didn't work.

heheh! nice try Lakren :)

Oh! thanks Cuneo

*raises her glass to him* cheers

*runs in*
Hi everyone. I don't have time to chat right now, but I can solve one of your problems.

CEO should probably get around 7-8 million per year.
CFO makes a bit less than that.

*grabs a glass of something, downs it and runs back out*

i think i can just about live on that

*Raises his glass.*

Cheers Prue. Cheers to the best hostess any club on NS could have.


I suppose Tink could take 8 million, and I could take 7.

that's fine with me

i'm going to sleep, night night *curls up on a sofa and goes to sleep*

*Puts an arm around Tink.*

We're gonna be millionaires Tink! I couldn't have done this without you babe.

*pokses his head back in*

btw, can I have a job in security here?

Sure Squorn, I guess you can.

I can work at that too in a way. After all, I am Italian.

awesome.

*runs out again*

*Picks up his guitar.*

Why do you hurt me the way that you do, that's not fair I wouldn't do it to you. Why------.....

*drives up and walks in*
hello?

Hey, I don't believe I know you, do I?

Hey, I don't believe I know you, do I?

yeah you do
*looks at watch*
oh crap!
*runs out and drives off*

Dangit nobody's here.

Anyone here?

I had to make post number 6000 in the club.

**walks in wearing a blue halter top and some black capris**

Hello

*walks up to the bar and fixes himself a martini. heads out onto the veranda to feel the warm breeze and watch the sun dip below the horizon...*

((Sits down and pulls out her book**

*Walks in dressed in khaki slacks and a Hawaiian shirt.*

Hey, anybody still here?

*turns and looks inside*

Hey Cuneo...

Hey Vex, what's crackin?

*Pulls two cigars out of his pocket.*

Cigar?

No, thanks.

Not too much going on. Just trying to wind down and relax a little.

*looks out over the water and the disappearing light of the day*

*Sets the other one down and puts the first cigar in his mouth and lights it.*

I hope the girls don't see that I'm smoking.

*Sets the other one down and puts the first cigar in his mouth and lights it.*

I hope the girls don't see that I'm smoking.

*Taps Cuneo on the shoulder*

I see ya :D

Aw, dangit.

*Puts out the cigar and throws it off the balcony.*

*Goes and brushes his teeth and rinses out his mouth so his breath doesn't smell like smoke.*

I'm sorry, I was just having a relaxing smoke. I haven't in a long time.

*Puts a hand on Prue's shoulder.*

I hope I haven't been bad, I'm supposed to set an example as your boss.

*giggles*

you do whatever you want Cuneo...*waves and leaves*

Wait! Where are you going Prue?

Hi Prue. Bye Prue.

*sighs and turns back to the water*

*Goes back to smoking his cigar since Prue is gone.*

*slips outside and walks to water's edge*

as i've managed to get the computer working now

*Puts out his cigar and uses some mouthwash again.*

Glad you figured it out Prue, So what's going on?

*Puts out his cigar and uses some mouthwash again.*

Glad you figured it out Prue, So what's going on?

I'm not sleeping, that's what's going on...and i couldn't get a wireless connection for a while there...

but i'm getting confused. I've just slipped outside cos i thought i saw Vex...so if i'm outside i can't be talking to you inside...back in a while

Hi Prue. Bye Prue.

*sighs and turns back to the water*

*Strolls along water's edge looking to see which way Vex went*

*stops to admire the view over the lake...the soft light, almost gone now, and the glint of the navigation lights shining on the water*

*Vex looks down from the veranda into the darkness at the figures out by the water*

Wonder who that could be?

*slips quietly down the stairs and walks toward the water in the growing darkness*

Prue, I'm outside too in case you didn't notice. I wouldn't have been smoking inside.

*Smiles at Prue.*

*walks in*

Hmm, no one here.

*hears voices outside*

*walks out onto balcony*

*Vex looks down from the veranda into the darkness at the figures out by the water*

Wonder who that could be?

*slips quietly down the stairs and walks toward the water in the growing darkness*

*whispers* Vex???

*thinks must have been mistaken and carries on walking slowly to the jetty*

*sees shadows moving down on the beach*

*slowly walks downstairs and outside*

*whispers* Vex???

*hears something...*

Flex???

*huh*

Sex???

*umm*

Vex???

Is that you Prue? Where are you? I can't see a thing... Hullo?

*Puts his head down on the stone balcony barricade and talks quietly to himself.*

I've shown my darkside to the beautiful hostess.

*Runs down and on the jetty.*

Prue, can I come along?

*it's getting busy outside!*

Hi Vex...long time no see

*Puts his head down on the stone balcony barricade and talks quietly to himself.*

I've shown my darkside to the beautiful hostess.

*Runs down and on the jetty.*

Prue, can I come along?

I'm not going anywhere Sweetie...just taking a break and trying to find Vex as we haven't both been at the club together for a while

*sees various shadows running around talking to each other*

hmm, dark.

*walks out onto the beach*

*waves to Squorn*

hi...have you secured the security job here?

Hi Prue. So nice to see you. How've you been?

Um, hi Cuneo...hi Squorn. Regular party going on out here, no?

Very funny Prue. :rolleyes:
Yes, I am now officially paid to be paranoid, or somehting like that.


Pitch Black Beach Party time eh Vex?

Fine Vex...and you?

There's talk of a pool party tomorrow night...i'll be staying up for that. The things i do for NS!

*opens the door and enters the club...* Hm, deserted.

Very funny Prue. :rolleyes:
Yes, I am now officially paid to be paranoid, or somehting like that.


Pitch Black Beach Party time eh Vex?

Now that would be fun!!! :D

identify people in the dark...definitely has possiblities, especially after a few drinks :)

Pool party tomorrow night?!? I'm there!

Now that would be fun!!! :D

identify people in the dark...definitely has possiblities, especially after a few drinks :)
*hurriedly finishes his drink. looks for a waitress...*

Probably don't come down here, do they?

I didn't know of any pool party...

*looks out the window and sees silhouettes moving* *sighs* Yet again, left behind... I'll have to be quicker next time.

Pool party, must remember that.

*scribbles on his hand*

Now, beach party games.

Who can walk furthest down the jetty before falling off?

I knew Tink was planning a pool party, I just didn't know it was gonna be tomorrow night.

Chicken!!!

woooooooot!!! now we can have a bbq too ROFL

Yo everybody.

Hey um, Chicken, anytime you need to catch up on the news you can always telegram me. I'm the CFO of the club.

I knew Tink was planning a pool party, I just didn't know it was gonna be tomorrow night.

i was chatting to her earlier today and she said tuesday...which is today...sorry, tomorrow for you

Now, beach party games.

Who can walk furthest down the jetty before falling off?

What a kewl game, LOLZ!!!!!1111one

... Maybe not. ^____^

Chicken!!!

woooooooot!!! now we can have a bbq too ROFL
No bbq! I thought we already agreed on this?

i was chatting to her earlier today and she said tuesday...which is today...sorry, tomorrow for you
Yep. Still 20 minutes left of today for me.

Yo everybody.

Hey um, Chicken, anytime you need to catch up on the news you can always telegram me. I'm the CFO of the club.
Thanks, Cuneo.

I still got about 3 hours of Monday.

Whoo, quote city.

*dances in the sand*

*Watches Sparren dance so gracefully.*

I don't suppose you'd like to have a dance with me Sparren?

Sure, I would-- is there any music available?

*lies down in sand*

*Pulls a small remote out of his pocket and turns on the speakers in the club from down on the beach.*

What song would you like, slow or fast, pick any song.

it just so happens that i have a cd player here...

*turns music on and waits for Cuneo and Lakren to dance*

*fiddles with a little box fitted onto a tree*

*coloured lights come on under the trees*

there...that looks better. I'd put those up for the pool party...in case anyone wanted to wander by the lakeside

Wow, sweet. I think a good song might be... er... "The Scientist." Wait, no, no, definitely not that one. Definitely not. What about... "Yeah"? Nothing like some good dance pop music to start a night off...

*lies down in sand*

*flops down next to Squorn*

you ok?

I don't know either of those, but sure. Fast music, right? Is that what it is?

*posts*

I don't know either of those, but sure. Fast music, right? Is that what it is?

Yes indeed. Let's get dis party started. ;)

*posts*

that looks like high class spam...or just plain laziness!!!!

come and join in Susa :D

*Holds Sparren and dances, swaying fast to the music with his hands on her hips.*

*flops down next to Squorn*

you ok?

Yeah, I'm fine. Why do you ask?

Wow, sweet. I think a good song might be... er... "The Scientist." Wait, no, no, definitely not that one. Definitely not.

*gives a quick glance at Sparren and walks off to the jetty*

you flopped down...i don't usually have such a devastating effect on men ;)

sees Vex walk off to jetty and the look he sends Sparren

*sighs*

you flopped down...i don't usually have such a devastating effect on men ;)

You're just full of humor tonight aren't you? :)

*sways to the music* It's a beautiful night... despite the mosquitoes.

You're just full of humor tonight aren't you? :)

heh! tonight is my early morning...not my best time...not as i've been awake since 3am

*stretches out on the sand*

i'm not at my most scintillating best ;)

*sways to the music* It's a beautiful night... despite the mosquitoes.

Yes, too many mosquitoes.

*Dances while covering Sparren as best he can so that he gets bit rather than her.*

I got your back baby.

heh! tonight is my early morning...not my best time...not as i've been awake since 3am

*stretches out on the sand*

i'm not at my most scintillating best ;)

You must be simply amazing when you're rested. ;)

You'll have to let me know when that happens next.

You're too kind... but the mosquitoes seem to find me despite my best efforts.

*clings to Cuneo anyway*

Wanna turn on some slow music and get a bit more cozy?

You must be simply amazing when you're rested. ;)

You'll have to let me know when that happens next.

i'm to be found either here, or on the spam forum. The Jolt Ball is still going strong although it's getting wild in there...

you're welcome to drop in at Prue's Spam Cafe and Bar - i do a nice line in spam fritters although there are corned beef ones too (by request of Zarozina)

it's 05:19 here...i'm usually around at 12 noon my time and on and off between 6pm and 11pm...at my best in the evening.

wow! sunday afternoon was superb on the spam forum - it was a real wooot!

Hmm, I haven't really spammed since back when NS had only about 5 forum mods.

Well guys, it's getting late...I'm off to bed. Goodnight.

*waves* G'night, then. Sleep well.

*smiles slightly* Have any suggestions for slow songs, Cuneo?

Goodnight Chicken.

Night Chicken...sweet dreams...of bbqs ;)

Hmm, I haven't really spammed since back when NS had only about 5 forum mods.

have to admit that being allowed to spam takes some of the fun out of it...but there are some fun people there

*waves* G'night, then. Sleep well.

*smiles slightly* Have any suggestions for slow songs, Cuneo?

Well I like Los Lonely Boys lately. We could dance to "More Than Love."

*Turns it on and sways side to side slowly, holding you close to him.*

Like it?

I must admit, your taste is quite good... *closes her eyes halfway and dances*

thanks, glad you like my taste.

*Grips your back in a massaging way and slowly moves side to side.*

*walks along the jetty looking for Vex*

*stumbles in the darkness and falls in*

*hears splash*

*gets up and runs to the jetty*

Prue? Vex? You two okay?

dunno where Vexy is - he wasn't on the jetty

guess i'm getting sleepy as i stumbled. goodnight all, see yez later

*swims away to nearby boat*

see ya Prue.

*slowly walks back up toward the building*

I gotta go. Bye all.

Later Prue, later Squorn!

Wow, it got quiet suddenly...

Just a little, huh.

Now it's just us baby.

*Sways back and forth and looks into your beautiful eyes? (What color are they anyway?)

*Sings.*

I know it's more than love, baby I can feel it, when I'm close to you ooh ooh. I know it's more than love baby do you?

(They're grey, green, or blue, depending on the day. ;))

**shivers and wakes up on the couch, her book having fallen to the floor**

*there's the sound of a boat engine chugging closer*

*a small boat comes into the jetty and a rope is flung out. Prue ties up and gets out...none the worse for her early morning dip*

*she hurries up the beach to the club, enters and starts tidying up*

Faugh! i can still smell that cigar Cuneo lit last night...ack!

*opens windows, doors and puts empty glasses in glass washer*

*Walks down from his room.*

Hey everybody.

Apparently the pool party hasn't started yet.

*Checks the navigation light hookups at the lake and sprays down the dock with some water.*

*stands quickly, brushing the sand out of her clothes* Aie... the beach isn't, perhaps, the best place to fall asleep...

Maybe they're still out there.

*walks down to the beach.*

Anybody out here?

*wanders by on his way to his boat*

howdy Vex.

*Waves, unsure of why Vex didn't say hi.*

What kinda boat you got Vex?

Hiya DF. What's up?

howdy Vex.

Hey DF.

DF, do you work for me or not, I've already forgotten.

*Waves, unsure of why Vex didn't say hi.*

What kinda boat you got Vex?

Hi Cuneo. I have a 17ft. runabout. 60 hp motor. Not too small, not too big.

not alot Vex.
im not sure. i put in a few words about the lack of masculinity due to all the girls working, but i dont think i ever got appointed to anything.

You're right DF. I only have girls working for me. What in the hell. The one above me is a girl too.

Well do you want a job, what can you do?

bartend, massage, dance, sing, play piano and guitar. im a full package.

DF, man of many talents...

I'll see you guys.

*walks out to the dock and hops in his boat. fires the ignition, unties the ropes and takes off at full speed heading for the horizon...*

Sounds like about the same as me. Well DF, I can't think of a job title for you. But you can help around and I'll take care of you.

What do you like to do best?

i dunno, sing and play. i guess i could put in for an entertainment gig.

The thing is we kinda let everyone do that. And I don't pay anyone for it right now.

ah, alrighty then. i'll just help out where i can then.

bartend, massage, dance, sing, play piano and guitar. im a full package.

Good evening...i'm impressed...

Cuneo...i think we should have at least one male like DF on the staff. After all, we get a lot of females in the bar

*looks at DF thoughtfully*

a man of many talents indeed...and good looks :)

Cuneo...if you don't snap him up then someone else will...

cool. an endorsement.

And that's an important one. Prue is currently my top employee I think.

You and I can be the club musicians. But you go solo when I don't have time, and I'll go solo when you aren't around.

And if you want to, you can manage the boats or the garage.

sounds like a plan to me.

Alright homey, sounds good.

So how much money do you want? We're talking on a per year basis but I pay you once a week.

I suppose Tuesdays could be pay day but you haven't worked here long enough yet. I just want my dang money.

Cuneo...thank you for such a compliment!

With the generous salary you've given me i'm taking classes in massage and beauty treatments...i could also do fishing trips on the lake if you provide a large enough boat. I'd need some help with that though

just a thought for the future

well, DF, i'm sure glad that you're going to be on the staff here.
A valuable addition *smiles*

Your talents never end Prue. And it sounds like that's the same with DF. I have a better staff than any CFO would ever ask for.

Oh and I have a paycheck for you. Every Tuesday is payday for the club.

*Hands Prue a check with her name on it.*

I could tell you how much it is but you might wanna keep that confidential, I don't know your stand on talking about salaries.

i dunno, for managing a boat dock? i wouldnt ask for more than $20,000 a year.

And all the boats on it man. Imports, exports, that sort of thing ya know. we ship in stuff on small boats.

Make it forty grand.

man, this place must be raking it in you to double it. you rule man.

i dunno, for managing a boat dock? i wouldnt ask for more than $20,000 a year.

don't forget the singing and massage...and the eye candy factor ;)

oh! thanks Cuneo *slips pay into bag*

All I had to do was think DF. If I took a job managing boat docks and was kind enough to offer myself for a low salary, I would want someone to think I should get a little more.

*stiffles urge to run around in circles going "Wheeee"!!*
erm, i supose. alright, when do i start.

*Sits down and thinks to himself.*

"I thought I had the eye candy factor, but maybe its mostly the wallet candy factor. I'll have to work on this."

Now I suppose. But imports/exports happen on Friday. So all you have to do is make sure the boats aren't going to hell.

cool.
*grabs a bar of wax and a hull scraper and goes out to inspect the boats for barnicles*

Alright, now my pay finally.

*Writes a business check to his account for $134,615 to his business account for a fake boat charter service so that he doesn't have to pay taxes.*

Ah, the smell of untaxed money.

*Sits down and thinks to himself.*

*Prue giggles*

Cuneo...DF has a photo on the Paradise Beach forum...i think generally speaking he's considered...hot

haven't seen a piccy of you :)

cool.
*grabs a bar of wax and a hull scraper and goes out to inspect the boats for barnicles*

*Prue quickly looks round the bar - no customers yet*

*runs after DF and catches him up*

Need any help with that?

*comes flying back into port and ties up his boat. walks back towards the club*

uh, sure.
*tosses her the bar of wax*
if you could start waxing down the boats along the water line, the would be great. i have to go scrape the barnicles off the boats.
*takes off his shirt, and dives into water*

*Prue grabs the edge of the boat to steady herself, closes her eyes for a moment, then shakes her head, pulls herself together, rolls up her sleeves and gets to work*

*sees Vex walking towards the Club*

Hiya Vex *waves wildly then gets on with her job*

*pops up for a breath a few feet from Prue*
you alright? looking a little woozy.
hey Vex.

*Runs out to help.*

This looks like fun.

*Takes off his shirt and dives in and starts scraping barnacles.*

I'm buying a new boat soon since I just got my paycheck.

So Prue, when do you plan to show off one of the new outfits you are buying with your paychecks?

*waves to Prue and DF on his way up to the bar*
hmm?

hey Cuneo. these things are kinda hard to get off by hand. you might wanna use one of those scraper dealies hanging on the wall over there.
*nods at a wall with some tools hanging on it*

*pops up for a breath a few feet from Prue*
you alright? looking a little woozy.


Oh! Ah...er...um...you startled me, that's all DF...er...i've got to do the other side

*slips round the side of the boat, out of sight of DF*

*closes eyes and takes a deep breath or two*

*gets back to work*

*waves to Prue and DF on his way up to the bar*
hmm?

Hey DF...Vex is going into the bar. Don't think there's anyone serving. I'll just run up and make sure he's got a drink

*puts wax down and runs lightly up to the Club*

*stops outside to get breath and straighten her shorts*

Hi Vex...you ok there. Can i get you a drink or anything?
Hadn't expected you back for a few hours...

alright Prue.
*shrugs, takes a deep breath and dives down to scrape the bottom*

Hi Prue. I didn't intend on coming back either. Guess I had a change of heart.

I'd love a drink, thank you. Bombay Sapphire martini...wait...too early for that. How about a Guinness?

hey Cuneo. these things are kinda hard to get off by hand. you might wanna use one of those scraper dealies hanging on the wall over there.
*nods at a wall with some tools hanging on it*

*Shows DF the scraper thing in his left hand which was under water.*

I got one, guess you didn't notice. Thanks though.

*Goes back under.*

(runs in circles)

It's funny. I thought I'd get at least one person complaining that I made too much money as CFO. But I paid myself a million under average CEO salary, so it wouldn't be true. But nobody complained.

Guinness it is m'dear

*gets glass, pulls pint and hands it over*

*rests elbows on bar top and puts chin on hands*

How's my favourite fisherman and cook today? *smiles*

What is everyone doing underwater? I use to use this as my own bathroom you know...

(lightws a cigarette and continues to watch everyone, laughing)
