Also Not Really a LOA (Except that it is)

[Aurangzeb Khan]

I'll be dropping off the face of the earth for a week or so starting this weekend. But I'll let you start the celebrations now.

[Andreas the Wise]

Aww, forewarning ...
(Quick, Jacobus, still got that competition running? What's our chances of permission to sneak into Babkha and liberate everyone from the salt mines in a week?)

[hypatias mom]

Ardashir--

Come back to us soon. Shireroth just isn't the same without you.

[HIH Hesam Jahandar]

Andreas, You cannot liberate people FROM the salt mines, people are liberated TO the salt mines.

Actually, we've had a bad quarter. It seems we've been mining salt for 7 years now and no one is buying.

[hypatias mom]

I guess that means the bottom has dropped off on the price of salt. Perhaps you might think of putting the workers to some other task.

[Jess]

Amokolia will buy some salt, for our many salt shakers that are currently empty, or filled with goose teeth.

Ever so sorry Hesam, too used to the old fashioned concept 'slavery', which I'm sure wouldn't occur in Babha

We might import said salt though. We have access to just about everything else but not enough 'luxury' foods, and I'm sure the sweat and blood of the liberated miners really adds to the flavour.
