Whew catching up after a hiatus of viewing because of your site issues. Commenting on old stuff because I just got caught up. Re Heinlein’s Stilyagi: correct me if I’m wrong but the Stilyagi
were actually young adults and older teenagers, ‘hipsters’. The young kids used as ‘spies and eyes) were known as the “Baker Street Irregulars”. At least that’s how I recall it.
Hehe now I have a reason to reread ‘The Moon is a Harsh Mistress”. Also, did you ever hear the Glen Campbell song of the same name inspired by Heinlein?
I’d post a link but your comment section won’t let me.
Brothel: Bwahahahahahah
TANSTAAFL: “We can dance if want to we can leave your friends behind, because your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
then they’re no friends of mine.” Good thing they’re all friends and (hopefully dance).
Looks like my kind of dive.
Brick walls, booths and live music with a dance floor.
Now, if there was only a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 on that shelf behind the bar………..
@dan : he did not say,, but i would say, southeast USA , foothills, an more than 50 miles from any major city.. prolly south west of Chattahoochee national forest… kinda like “Greenbriar ” b
ut not as close…
sooo if i was there,, i would be at the distillery,, i’m more of a “jack of all trades”,, but i have my own still,, an know how to make all the “spirits” (( Desert Storm, had to show clowns how to make, cuz they were making themselves sick.. (unofficial))
Used to bunk with the mechs whenever we went to the field. Made hooch.
Captain caught us at it. Said “That’s a hell of a way to waste time… Does it work?”
He wasn’t a hard drinker, but he liked to stop by the shop every morning for a cup of coffee.
Mechs always had power and heat.
Milissa .. don’t any thing stupid… that look in last panel…
I dunno, she is an Ensign, after all.

You’re probably right, it’s been a while. I have every one oh his books, I should re-read them.

That was me. Apparently one can comment without being logged in.
Wild Turkey is kept under the bar. There’s not much left in the Empire, so it’s expensive.
There is a distillery starting up, and craft brewers.
Which brings up an interesting question, where, in the former USA territories, is the Empire?

I’ve never really had a location in mind, somewhere between Seattle and Miami, I guess.
Well that narrows it down quite a bit. Thanks
So the former State of Kentucky COULD be in the Empire.
But I’ll shut up and let you tell your story.
