Bell reports in- finally
OOC I haven't been able to send in my own posts because my webmail address I
used to sign up was down. It's back, so I'll be able to make my own posts
again. I want to thank theonion for posting my last story. (Doing my best
Elvis impersonation. I'm from Mississippi so, by law, it's damn good.) "Thank
ya. Thank ya very much." (Does a few karate chops, throws his scarf into the
audience, and walks off stage.)

Bell sat nursing his beer while the other crew members got up and sang. Someone
singing "I Will Survive" hit a note so high that it shattered his beer mug.
"Why the smeg not! A perfect end to a perfect day." He got up and walked out
with beer covering his clothes to get changed. Then he realized that he had yet
to of been assigned to a room. Bell spent the night in a crawl space on the
science deck.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First thing in the morning, Bell awoke and prepped himself to report in.
He found his way, using the handy "You R Here" signs, to the main science
office. He walked in to report and was shocked. The man standing in the office
had an H on his head. He was a deadie. "Why not?" Bell thought. "Couldn't do
worse than living person, can he?"
"Dirk Bell reporting, Sir." Bell gave what looked more like an impression of a
salute than a real one. They were always so laid back at his previous posts.
Yet, he still stood straight and tall with his suit only slightly wrinkled and
the bruise on his check not as swollen as the day before. "I tried to check in
yesterday, but no one was aboard. I hope that won't reflect poorly on me."
Bell knew that he already had a strike against him. His file showed that he had
been removed from his previous post by request of his superior, Captian Wells,
but not why. It would have been an embarrassment for the captain.
ok. what are my orders?
