         On that note, let me remind you all of the
following freebie for present and past members of the
armed services (slightly edited from original messages posted
to Merry Rose and Marinus in October).

Gentles all:
         I know that the Barony of Marinus has many active, retired, 
and former
members of our modern armed forces, and rather suspect that the same is
true of the Merry Rose.  On that assumption, please be advised:
FYI:
Golden Corral is giving back to past and former military!

          Just in case, relevant text is:
To show our support for the U.S. Military, every Golden Corral restaurant
across the country will be offering a Free Dinner Buffet with choice of
beverage to any former or active member of the U.S. Military (including
National Guard and Reservists) when he or she visits any Golden Corral
restaurant. If you are a member of the U.S. Military, just identify
yourself to the cashier.
Monday Night, Nov. 14, 2005 * from 5-9pm
          BTW, from the Merry Rose, we see:
