Location: A04 Mynderis Tags: Science // PERSONAL DIARY // Though I'm no botanist I've been trying my hand at cultivating some flowering plants from Mynderis aboard the Mantis science ship Scorpion in one of the hydroponic labs. I've been adding Awesomnium to the water to see if it enhances them. Big Sal also added one of his new hybrids in the corner to see what impact Awesomnium water has on it. My pacifist companion Ed Zob doesn't seem to like the idea of super powered plants and continues to insist that we should not be meddling with nature. He tried to claim the hybrid is an affront to nature, science, and the gods. Honestly, I think being a pacifist, he just doesn't like that Mantis is so militaristic and he doesn't trust the corporation. It isn't pleasant for me either, but Big Sal has seemed really stressed out lately and the constant stress of leadership and concern over Kawashita attacks can't be helping. Maybe some giant plants would brighten his day. And it would help to know how the Awesomnium impacted plants for other stuff too. He has been so busy lately I haven't really managed to catch up with him much. It seems like he is never in his cabin or his office. And the labs get sealed sometimes when certain experiments are going on. I'm sure he is just really busy with all of his work. Either way the experiments will proceed and I'll continue to make great scientific progress for our corporation. Original: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=112376 Extra Pics: -
ONCE UPON A TIME there was an Olander priest named Tholeau. The priest, secretly in search of the Fountain of Youth, set sail with Cato Calrelli to Nelissa. One night, when the ship neared the islands that, according to an ancient manuscript, were the likeliest locations of the fountain, Tholeau made his move. While most of the crew was asleep, the priest threw his clothes on over his pajamas, snuck out through a gun port, and sailed off by himself in the captain’s boat. The priest eventually came upon the first island, but it did not match the description in the ancient manuscript. “This island is too big!” he exclaimed. So he proceeded to the second island. “This island is too small,” he said. So, he sailed to the last island. “Ahhh, this island is just right,” he said happily, and he proceeded to the interior of the island. After he’d travelled far into the jungle, he was hot and sweaty and wanted to refresh himself, when he happened across three bodies of water. So he undressed and waded into the first pool. “This pool is too hot!” he exclaimed, and he jumped out. So he waded into the second pool. “This pool is too cold!” he shivered, and climbed out. So he tried the last pool. “Ahhh, this pool is just right,” he sighed. After bathing in the pool, Father Tholeau was very tired. He climbed out and put on his pajamas. He found a nice bed of leaves to lie down in, but it was too hard underneath. Then he lay in a second bed of leaves, but it was too soft. Then he lay down in a third bed of leaves and it was just right. Tholeau fell asleep. As he was sleeping, three monkeys came by. “Someone’s been wading in my pool,” growled the Papa monkey. “Someone’s been wading in my pool,” said the Mama monkey. “Someone’s been wading in my pool, and they turned it yellow!” cried the Baby monkey. Looking around some more, they saw the leaves had been disturbed. Papa monkey growled, “Someone’s been sleeping in my bed!” “Someone’s been sleeping in my bed, too” said the Mama monkey. “Someone’s been sleeping in my bed and he’s still here!” exclaimed Baby monkey. Just then, Tholeau woke up and saw the three monkeys. He screamed, jumped up, and started to run away. But Papa monkey was quick, and he jumped on Tholeau and bit him on the shoulder. Tholeau finally got away from the three monkeys and into the jungle, but died a few days later from a nasty infection.
