The China Pearl Inn part 7

Human need to own what others have, just to have it has always confused me. I understand those groups that went for food or needed women to increase their numbers, but those that take when they already had more than enough to survive I don't understand. I never needed to have the bigger tv or the larger car or the greener grass.

It is a hard concept for a few good people. I wanted more than I needed and I still do. But not to the point that I would take it by force from someone who has earned it.
If you are treated like you can do no wrong then you think that nothing you do is your fault. And if you have had the trauma of doing with far less than you need to for long enough then when you get more than you need you may still think that you have yo have more in case the wheel ever turns again. Those are the two most common reasons for greed that I have found. But they are not good reasons.

All I have ever wanted is enough money to pay my bills and have a little left over for books and to have some savings. Maybe that comes from so many years of struggling to pay bills. LOL I definitely get very uneasy when I don't have anything in savings. It is odd, but I have more money now that I have retired, than I did when I was working. I thought I would be spending my life living month to month the rest of my life. I have actually managed to put a little away for emergencies. It is amazing how much I save just on gas by not going to work.

Suddenly I need to retire and open up a smithing shop in my back yard. Now if only I had a back yard. And a four bedroom house.

I have enough space for a smithing shop I think, but four bedrooms is way over my range of rooms. A smith would probably do well around here, some horses and lots of people that like wrought iron.
 
Greetings from the Dark Side. CG will know what I mean! Today we are having to take some new recruits and after giving them assignments we set up an ambush ‘terrorist style’. It trains them and trains us management of rookies.

Btw, re Ravens - if they ever leave the Tower Of London the British Monarchy falls. They left in 1647 and we had the Civil War where the King was captured and executed in 1649. They returned in 1657 and shortly after the Monarchy was restored. So DON’T MESS WITH RAVENS! Either Timothy or CG! Lol
 
Thanks for the support everyone.

I don't say it often enough, but I value you all so much. :heart:
 
We value your support too. And I know the Lionesses do.

Now, what do we do with 18 ‘prisoners of war?’

You treat them to proper British hospitality, serve them tea & biscuts, and help them see the error of their ways.

The good thing about the dark side is it helps you think the way your enemies might. If you can think like them then you can out think them. The English( more properly Welch) bow men took the field at agincourt not because they had better armor than the French or that they had better combatants, not even close to the same numbers... they just stood and made the French try and march horses over a muddy field and picked them off in scores. Henry would have had a much different life if he had let his men try to go toe to toe with the massive French army that day.

Trump just signed an order to keep Guantanamo open. :rolleyes:

I assume this means that your mission was successful and the "enemy" was caught unprepared for creative soldiering? Great work!!

Oh I'm pretty sure the 4 room thing is a must. We have to many hobbies that take up space. Like leather work(much needed for knives), sewing, metal work, and the child or hopefully children will have to sleep somewhere. It would be nice to have a small office for the wife too but that's more rooms. I have not worked with horses but I'd be willing to learn. I do like them and most animals tend to like me.
 
Thanks for the support everyone.

I don't say it often enough, but I value you all so much. :heart:

That is why we are all here. Because we need the help and company of friends to make ourselves better. See when I say it like that it sounds like we are really helping our selves to you.... And I personally am okay with this idea.:cool:

Unfortunately that place is a necessary evil on the face of this planet. But that is a subject I'd like to not open in this lovely place if that okay with everyone.

Why you greedy little thing! How dare you find comfort in supporting your fellow man? I demand that you throw penance at my feet for such insubordination! The sheer nerve of you, allowing yourself to become a better person, while comforting another. That's like buying a cow and getting the milk for free!

:rolleyes::heart:

Helping others with wisdom is often a form of penance in it's self. CG may know a thing or two about that. Personally I'll pretend I'm to shallow to understand all of that higher thinking stuff. If you think I have nerve now you should see what I can do in private.
I like to think of it as buying the cow and teaching others how to milk it, so they will bring me some of the milk and use the rest for themselves.
Also cows make good steaks, and as SF may say one cow can feed a lot of people.
 
Is opening a sex dungeon one of my options? I'm definitely going with that one if it is! :devil:

Sorry! All our prisoners are women. Our hostages in the Dark Side

Have them brainstorm new plot twists for Charlotte's Conversion!

And speaking of which, thank you for the latest inspiration.

I’m sorry I haven’t had a chance to write as promised. Didn’t expect to be in Germany. I’ll post as soon as I can.
 
Good morning all!:rose:

how are we all today?

Has Sal realised that she actually did get her AV to work yet or is she still off staring at the moon?

lol I don't think LS would mind a dungeon full of women.

Lets all have a dungeon full of women! :D

I'm off to grab a morning coffee then I'll be back for chit chat!:)

Uggg:rose::rose::rose::rose:

Don't doubt yourself, you've shown time and time again that you understand more than you're willing to say out loud. But I think I should see what you do in private. Just to, you know, form a more clear picture of you. Trousers optional, of course.

Oh and you have all that steak, so long as I can get some of the milk instead. I'm not very big on meat these days that isn't attached to some fine (wo)man.

Sorry to hear about your hostage situation, but I kind of wish I was in it. :devil:

Doing just fine. *winks playfully*

Oh and you really have my number, dontcha? It's like you know my MO as well as I do xD I agree we should all have a dungeon full of women--- willing, sexy women and men... and some anime tentacle monsters just to shake things up. Don't forget the lube!
 
So Shiva, you want to be in my dungeon? As my prisoner? You don’t know what you’re asking for - I’m very strict!
