A Merc's Life [OOC 02]

[Scotley]

Chicago is great fun too, but in this case they are sending the bag back down on the next train. Should be back in Memphis early tomorrow morning. Of course it is at least an hour round trip to the Amtrak station from my house, so that's a bit of journey.

They couldn't even Fedex it to you? That sucks.

 

[Scotley]

I was a rather large bag and heavily laden. I suspect the cost of fedex from Chicago would be more than the train ticket to NO.

BTW, Scotley, remind me what "caro putridas es" means again? I figure it means something is "stinky" or some such, but I've never heard light syrup described that way, so I think I must be off by a wee tad.

I put that one up for Rhun. His current status is roughly 'a cliff before me, wolves behind me'. So mine translates 'you're dead meat.' Or maybe 'dead meat is you'.

The 'dead meat is you' thing may be a more literal word-for-word translation, but the sense of the phrase is "You're dead meat," I believe. I suspect that a more accurate translation of caro putridas es may be something like "You're spoiled meat," or something.

[sblock=OOC]Trying a spoiler in a different thread.[/sblock]

Spoilers aren't working for me - ignore the one in this thread (I'm trying to track down the problem).

Scotley, your stat block posted here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/5282895-post850.html isn't opening for me either . . .

 

[renau1g]

Didn't open for me either

If you guys just HAVE to see inside an sblock, QUOTE the message with the sblock in question like you're making a new post. When the screen comes up for your new post, you'll be able to see all the hidden text like always. Then, when you're finished, just CANCEL the post and you'll be taken right back to the thread just like it was when you found it. Easy, peasy, Greasy!

See, that's how I saw that Ryan put "Test Can you see this?" in the sblock in post #169
