I frakkin' heard ya, ya godsdamned felgercarb.

And consulting is for Cylons and traitorous nancies!*

I move to the Research Lab and as I have no cards I am able or willing to part with as this time, and in fact desperately need to stockpile booz-er, more cards, for my Action, I will draw a Blue card.

On to the crisis, Mr. Gaeta!

* Mrs. Tigh would like to interject at this point that certainly her dear husband does not think anyone (particularly anyone important or cute) here is a Cylon or a traitorous nancy.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Huh, looks like the boss is a fan of the Tequila Sunrise.

I will limp along to the crisis deck when I get home from work, as well as inform you what blue card you pulled from the deck.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

wave Hi from Laguna Woods! I'm making dinner in a half hour or so but I'll be back on for a while before bed time.

Admiral, your card draw has been sent.

And onto the details of the crisis card:

Water Shortage (A)
President Choice

E-mail inbound with the details. Mr. President, please post your decision in thread.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

Well now, we still need to get a resource into the red before the Sleeper Phase, and Food seems the best choice. I'm good with bumping Food down another notch.

Who's taking the 2 hour long bubble baths?

ELLEN?!

I... would love to actually end a turn with a full hand of cards. I don't like losing food but there is a weird strategic advantage as well. And if Zarek chooses to lose food, he can always make us that "long pig" he was talking about earlier should our reserves get too low.

But I'm sure whatever the President chooses will be fine. Of course if I decide I don't like it... ;)

PS: My new card draw was not actually sent. Cylons have been interrupting transmissions apparently.

Chief, it's your turn next. Presumably you'll be repairing the Armoury; for your bonus action, the offer I made to the Admiral still stands. If you're looking for someone to XO, I would be happy to hit up the Press for more ICs. I've been learning to play the spoons, I'm sure it'll be a big hit.

Attention citizens! Please drink your whisky neat until further notice.

Curious. I have resent it. Damn cylons jamming our signals.

Prez. chooses -1 food
So sayeth we all... well, ok, maybe just the ex-con. Said and done Mr. President. Food is now down to 5!

Activation is meaningless since nothing is in the air. Jump track is advanced one step. Wow, into the blue without any DRADIS contacts. Y'all are lucky!

End of turn summery to follow shortly, followed by an e-mail to the Chief with his card draw.
