Ignore me Laurie, I’m just a disgruntled soldier in an ugly uniform who got carried away with thoughts or revenge because she was told she was a flip flopper (what am I, a pancake) and was placed on a list.

In the imaginary movie can Geena Davies play Cate – I think she could kick some serious ass – I of course look nothing like her, but that’s Hollywood.

Cate~

You can have anyone you want to play the part of You; the disgruntled, slightly prone to gratuitous violence, femme fatale.
Heck they don't even need to be alive! You can choose a young Kate Hepburn if you'd like. There are no boundaries in imaginary land!

I'm thinking I might like to be a unicorn...

there is a serious ass who visits this forum and a kicking may be an appropriate gesture, but he hasn't posted on this particular thread yet so let us not talk of him any more.

I am concerned that so far only two persons have publicly declared their total commitment to the cause. Their fine example of dedicating themselves, mind and body, to the Militant Wing, has rather surprisingly not inspired others to follow. Instead I have only received more than 20 private enquiries, some written in braille, about enlisting for private weapon-holding training.

The current command structure is thus

Commander Field Marshall Sir Lord Mickey of One
Corporeal Alan Alda
Spiritual Amanda Manna

Can I be Hawkeye?

Since this is a "wing" it makes sense for everyone to have a bird moniker and Hawkeye for me is well, a no-brainer.

Mikey- Maybe you can be "Buzzard" ?? They seem kinda lawyerly...

Amanda- Maybe you can be "Snowy Owl" or somesuch...because you are a brainiac and owls sometimes have to wear specs because they read so much...

Cate- How about "Peacock" ?? Since they are so fashion conscious, like you....

But really these are just suggestions....

Private Cate has asked for Swallow, the other suggestions are acceptable

Snowy Owl is fine with me, as long as I don't have to barf hair & bones.

There is no private Cate - I am not part of the roster. I am currently looking for new dictator.

You have to admit, owl pellets are pretty interesting, though.

Okay Cate. But be careful what you wish for. You could do worse than Buzzard. Do your homework.

mikeee--that was really bad

I have no idea what you mean. Private Swallow has shown early signs of flip-floppery, but if she tries to desert we must shoot her gently but repeatedly.

Listen Dictator Mickey - my military name will henceforth be known as bluebird Cate - until I find a better name -- and there will be no repetitive albeit gentle shooting of me, as long as you are calling me private swallow - that's just NOT nice.

hmm, I detect a language misunderstandythingy. whatever it meant to you, that rank is now withdrawn. you are now Private Blackbeard as you requested.

Hmmm...it sorta sounds like a stripper name....

Ahhh - I didn't want to be private peacock I could imagine what he would do with that name choice.

Oh. You do have a dilemma.
Peacock was a really bad choice now that you mention it...

Pigeon?
Seems harmless............
