*Still* in Buffalo, NY -- Well, I finally got most of my soldiers sobered up. I can't sober Stu the homeless man up, because, frankly, have you ever seen a stuttering man with the shakes? It ain't pretty.
The Mounties have formed something closely resembling a line, and although their uniforms are disheveled and dirty, I think they'll do. The illegal immigrants (who I've dubbed the Pablo Platoon) are eager to start carrying lumber to the work site. It took quite a lot of pidgen-Spanish to let them know that there is no lumber and we're not building a house.
I've started to purchase weaponry for this expidition. So far, I have a single-shot .22 rifle, a pump shotgun, and 2 BB-pistols. Not bad, considering my funds are down to $22.73.
Mobilization for the Zimbabwean war is underway!
Your friend, Laz
My recent employment history includes light delivery and caring for large quantities of dogs. I don't see where you have a K-9 unit, so I would like to be a Diplomatic Courier.
I don't have to money to get to Buffalo, so I probably would need to do my Diplomatic Couriering in the Houston metro area. I have several good ballpoint pens, a zippered bank bag and paper clips.

...mind if I take a leave of absence....!?
I'll report for duty later....(I hope!)
*Still* in Buffalo, NY -- Stuttering Stu found his sweater!!!
Stu wouldn't leave for this war until he found his Lucky Sweater. I'm not sure why he thinks it's lucky -- it's got old vomit stains on it and he sure hasn't been lucky in his entire life (except for that one Take Five lotto ticket where he won $25.00). He claims he wore it in Vietnam, but he's only 37 years old. That'd have had him in 'Nam when he was 6 years old. I suppose it's possible. His draft number might have come up.
We're all trying to figure out how to get to Zimbabwe from Buffalo. Pablo #2 offered this: "Just sneak across dee border, mon." I had to tell him that the border -- the Atlantic Ocean -- is a little moist.
The addition of General Flyer has GREATLY increased our arsenal. We might even be able to give each troop a firearm now!
I'm applying to the Salvation Army for bus tickets to New York City. Perhaps we can get to Zimbabwe easier if we get there.
Hopefully,
Laz
