Rest
Scene: a small bar somewhere in Southeast Asia. It burgeons with more patrons then it has seen in years. The Man in Black detaches himself from the crowd for a moment to get a drink.
"Good heavens. Who are all these people, Mr Sons?" asks the bartender.
"Friends of mine, Jimmy." replies the Man in Black. They wanted a little r&r. Away from the maddening din of conflict, if you know what I mean."
Jimmy clapped excitedly. "Well, any friends of yours are friends of mine, Mr. Sons! They are welcome here any time as long as they behave themselves. Otherwise Goro will have words with them."
In the corner of the bar stood something that resembled a shaved gorilla in a tuxedo. It cracked its knuckes and grinned evilly at the Man in Black.
"Ulp! No, I think everyone will behave themselves."
Jimmy beamed. "Excellent. Scotch on the rocks, sir?"
"Yeah, make it a double..."

Excellent post, as always....Uhm, can I borrow Goro sometime? Does he dance? I tend to lead, if he wouldn't mind. Anyway, I love the Man in Black series. ILYHAND
