Sharky, you shouldn't feel common at all. You're one of a very small, select group of "chosen ones" that he's expressed some interest in. And he's quite a catch. Be proud! You're in the finals!

I hope Semi has the Java on. I need a cuppa right now.

Hey, it looks like we got a new piano, courtesy of ANK. Word has it that ANK felt so bad about his brother shooting up the place, that he sprung for this french polished mahogany veneered authentic antique Steinway upright.

Gee thanks, ANK. That's swell. Want some coffee?

Good thing the coffee (Like all drinks at SHAKES) is free.

<I knew I shouldn't have told Vee to pick the one he thought was most appropriate for SHAKES decor.>

Better make that a Joe n' Jonnie.

<looks at Piano>

Oi Vey

May I?

<plays Shostakovitch's Sonata no. 2 in B minor, I Can't Get No Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones and Cabaret from the musical of the same name>

Oooh my aching fingers, I'm out of practice at playing Piano. Sorry if I played a few off notes, I'll have to warm up next time.

Semmi sweetheart, could I have a cold beer now?

Here you go Harbinger. That was wonderful by the way. I particularly liked your rendidtion of Cabaret. You and Healex should think about collaborating and putting on a concert for the residents of Legion World!

I never knew we had so much talent in the joint.

Here's your joe 'n johnny, ANK. And thanks again. It's just swell.

But Sharky your number one on my list!!!!!

and #2 and #3 and #4 etc......

Wow... If I knew that the 'Binger could play like that, you'd have had that Piano a lot sooner Semi. And Vee, I don't know if the model made any difference to her, but that one was the perfect choice.

Now, how about another Joe 'n Jonnie?

Of course, Almost New Kid. Here's your drink, on the house as usual, but with a great deal of appreciation for your kind gift to our little corner of Legion World. I hope it brings everyone lots of enjoyment.

is there gonna be a talent competition?

Knowing icy? I would say that's a safe bet!

Perhaps we should stage a pageant one night at Shakes. Each of the finalists could parade in a silk thong, formal attire, show a talent, and answer a question about why he feels he should be the one Icefire picks.

As the winner takes his walk, Suddenly Seymour could seranade with "One" from Chorus Line on the french polished mahogany veneered authentic antique Steinway upright, so generously donated by Almost New Kid, in remorse for the damage that his brother, Space Ranger, caused while temporarily unhinged.

(Don't you hate run on sentences?)

So when will this pageant be held? Where is the entry application? Who will be the judges? (I need to know who to bribe )

I am not sure how well I'll do in the silk thong comeptition, but will give it a shot for Icey's sake.

I think Vee and I get to be judges. We'll need one or three more (need an odd number of course, in case there's a tie).

yeah, i got some reservations about that myself ...

About how well I'll do in the Silk throng competiton or about how well you will do?

Well Italian Boy hasn't weighed in on that issue yet. I supposed if we had a revolt of the constestants, we might have to rethink that phase of the competition perhaps speedos.

or in Sharky's honor...nothing at all!

I look upon this bar in disgust from afar. I would never go near it. I will see it closed down or turned into something more respectful where casual drinking and sex will never be allowed.

Semi & Vee,

Please do let me know when the first annual Shakes Pageant will be taking place.

For now, I have to get going.

If you've looked at it from afar and have never gone near it, how do you know what goes on inside?

Hmm? By any chance is your surname Grundy? Or are you a member of the United Charlatan Church?

Hopefully it's not Glorion or Harbinger will throw a right hissy fit!
