      The new Boozerama is, contrary to tradition, on Earth. More specifically, North America. Yet more specifically... OK, it's at 1 Infinity Loop, Cupertino, California, USA.

      Boozerama Bar X uses cutting edge technology. The basic structure has been reinforced such that it can't be destroyed by any normal means, because of new protective technologies.

      The Windows have also changed. They have three buttons in the upper left corner - a red one, a yellow one, and a green one. The red one closes the window. The yellow one opens the window by sucking it down into a small hole at the bottom, known as the window's dock. The green one will expand the window, which since it can't really get bigger in the frame, means it explodes outward. Useful in case of fire.

      The bar is also much redecorated, with Aqua predominating. Much Aqua! Things tend to be cheerier overall, with drink dispensers bouncing in their dock stations as they start to distribute drinks.

      Not all people are compatible with Boozerama Bar X though. Luckily, all carbon based life forms are. For those that aren't, anyone who eats a lot of Cocoa will be able to come in normally. Others can only be here by calling in under some sort of visiphone system from the old Boozerama Bar 9.

      Well, I think that about covers the major changes, so come on in and continue the Boozerama Bar traditions.

      Mac taps a PGGB dispenser, which bounces happily as it spills out a drink for him, which soon makes him quite drunk.

      Hrmm.. We go through Boozeramas (and by we I mean you guys) really fast. Some of you should break off and form a splinter group that has their own bar. Two enemies bars, launching raids on eachother. That would be cool.

      LOL! So this is what you had in mind!! I got the same sort of idea from "X" but never could have put it so eloquently.

      Uh, that word? You spelled it wrong. Yeah, that one right there, next to the period. And you're missing an apostrophe in the word "its".

      Just for those who don't know, Apple's main development studio is at 1 Infinity Loop, Cupertino, California. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Gotta admire a software company that lives on a street called Infinity Loop. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Mac goes back for another PGGB. Since the Dispenser has already been used today, it doesn't bounce. :frown:

      Shade's orders do make a couple of machines bounce, though. ๐Ÿ™‚

      "Wow, high-tech soda dispensors!!"

      Skyblade runs to one of the spigots, happy to find an unlimited supply of Dr. Pepper ๐Ÿ˜‰

      By the way, the Confeds could easilly invade our bar now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Why would an order of a cheese and a tunafish make some machines bounce?

      I'm guessing you haven't used OS X yet, right? ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Skyblade, I think it would be tougher than you think. We use protected memory segments now, so the bar can't be blown up normally. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Mac- Yeah, I'm sure of that, but having a bar on the capital of the Confederation is a bit....irregular... ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Sips more Dr. Pepper ๐Ÿ˜‰

      I gotta stick to the theme here, if Cupertino eventually becomes the Confed capital, well, I can't help the fact that OS X was developed here. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      /me starts throwing apples around the bar

      Hmm, odd, those are aqua too. I wonder what an aqua apple tastes like... chomp Yummy! Hmm, this could make for some interesting cider...

      /me goes back to terminal behind the desktop to invent new drinks ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Corey sets Bruteroot loose on Infinity Loop for a little exercise, and he runs around and around and around...

      In OS X, when you start an application, it bounces in the Dock. ๐Ÿ™‚

      Gosh, Shade, you must've never seen OS X. Go to (url="http://"http://www.apple.com/macosx/theater/")http://www.apple.com/macosx/theater/(/url) and see if you can get an idea of just what he's talking about. It may not show that exact situation, but you'll get a good feel of what OS X is like.

      You do know what PNB stands for, right?

      Yes, perfectly normal beast. It was in Mostly Harmless, right?

      Insano orders a DP and mixes it with some of the aqua apple cider. Hmmm... interesting.

      Skyblade spits the terrible Macavenger-made cider back into his cup and throws it at Mac. Grabs his Dr. Pepper instead. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Mac "accidentally" bumps Captain Skyblade, spilling his DP all over him. He hands him another aqua cider to replace it. "Come on, it's good! Try it, you'll like it! How bad could something made from the NeXT generation Apple logo be?" ๐Ÿ˜›

      Skyblade suddenly realizes that his previous cider drink had been poisoned with Windows 95. He rinses his mouth out really thoroughly, and prepares to find the idiot who added the unwanted flavor to his drink...

      Skyblade drinks the cider, rather liking the apple taste to it. He then continues with his heavilly-favored Dr. Pepper. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      "Heh heh heh..." Corey lurks in the shadows with an almost-empty vial of Windows 95. He retreats to his hidden arsenal and grabs some MS-DOS 6.0, Win 3.1, and the dreaded Win 3.1 1 for Workgroups! :eek: He secretly dumps them in everyone's drinks! :eek: :eek:
