Oh yes, and if anyone thinks my "redeemer" image goes to fast, than go into the finder, but in a way so that you can still see Netscape/IE/Earthlink/whatever you're browser is. You'll see the animation in slow-mo.
Mac- In the book, (though obviously you've tired of that phrase) kids DO drink alcholoic bevreages!(hic! hic! Hic!

ON WITH THE BAR STORY...
Lyra, seeing Zen doesn't like her refrence to the book, throws a talking device at him that says:
(read the books to find out more)!

This continues after a while, untill his enclosure finnaly busts open. Upon doing so, Arookee changes to a Dragon and B-B-Q'S him. Evreyone is quite happy, and ready to have a B-B-Q party, when Lyra says "No, lets not kill him. Arookee, how could you be so mean!" and then she spanks Arookee and grabs corey's (??? I think it was yours, mighta been Zen's...) Restora-Duck 9000 and restores Zen to his original shape. He thanks her, and throws a BBQ in her honor (at the fully-functioning BBQ area, with multi-functioning gas grills, dance floor, pool tables, 150 square foot deck, Watermellon-spitting arena, and drink bar). He feels absolutly NO resentment towards Lyra for blowing up his shelter, for Arookee (under Lyra's watchful eyes) buys him a new one equiped with 5 foot thick tritanium walls, blast doors, moat (with accompying crocidiles), voice-recognition/fingerprint detection security system, missle rack, torpedo launcher, Kestral bay, power plant, water tanks, fully functional G4 computer network, restraunt, movie theater, king-sized bed, and of course, an escape pod (as if you'll ever need it with all that crap protecting you!)
Everyone has forgot their past alliances, betrayels, wars, skirmishes, and treaties, evreyone is happily having a good chicken and rib BBQ while taking tours (at a small fee) of Zen's new "capsule". After a reprimend from Lyra, Arookee reluctantly hands over all the new cash he got from the tours to Zen, in further recompence for blowing his head off.
Well, upon recieving the broadside of peanuts from macavenger he bravely returns with a salvo of wooden darts, which stick to the bottom of his chess board, forming nice neat little legs.
