Loose Lips Sink Ships Part III

The continuation of Loose Lips Sink Ships will not be published this issue either. The body of Zan Clork was found floating in Salvene space earlier this week. It appears as if the end of the world cult thought to be responsible for these horrible actions left a recording with the body. While the statement or statements on this recording have yet to be released to us, we promise our readers to publish them as soon as we get word of what is said on them. We apologize for any inconveniences which this might pose to the family of Zan Clork but as journalists we must continue to meet our objective of informing our readers.

Federation and Underground Fighting Again

Only days after representatives of both the Federation and the Underground Councils condemned a gruesome murder in the Creonti galaxy we find the two are at it again. Federation space in neutral galaxies has come under mass bombings from a top UG rebel. When reached for comment the Federation only had this to say, “We know who did it, we know where they are, and we know how to get them.” When asked why this rebel hadn’t been caught yet we received the following, “well actually we only know the general area. We believe, however, he is hiding in one of the caves on the moon Tarpton 5.” We await to see whether or not the Federation is indeed able to make good on their promise of being able to catch this fiend.

Rant of the Day

You know what ticks me off? Women. They always complain about the toilet seat being left up and if we leave it down they complain that we pee on it. Here is the deal. If we are expected to lift the seat up, you should be expected to put it down. It is a fair trade. After all, the seat won’t have to be put down unless we had to put it up. You don’t see men complaining that urinals are not standard equipment for home use. Can’t you just tough it out?

Personals

Remember folks, for now the personals are free. Just send a private message to Rosebud with the topic of “personal” and we’ll get you in here for the next issue, but please keep them to 75 words or less. Run time for a personal is two issues so you’ll have to resubmit every second issue.

Soul: Hello ladies. When I'm not out on the job I like to organize my blue, red, and green suits as well as pick out matching feathers for my hat. My friends say I'm a pimp, but I prefer to say I'm just a lover of women. Interested, give me a call.

RedDragon: I am a nice guy – lost in a complicated world. If you also missed the time when you changed from an 8ft arachnid to a small quadruped, and enjoy the finer things in life then contact me. If you get in touch I can promise you the treatment of a wealthy warrior – someone who will not stand for any insult. I am looking for a successful Salvene female – other races need not apply. Photo required.

Vtreka: I’m an Ik’Thorne with an exotic taste, if you know what I mean. I am looking for VERY discrete relationship from an exciting and kinky Creonti. Please respond only between 4 and 6 in the morning. If a female voice answers HANG UP!

Sterling: I am an outgoing type of person who loves long walks on the Ik’Thorne moon beach. I also enjoy fine wine and women. Right now I’m not looking for anything serious but someone who would rather have some fun while they still can.

Letter From the Editor

It’s Death Knoll here once again. I would like to thank you, our readers, for allowing News Control to become an officially produced paper of this community. I would also like to take this time to remind everyone that we have a few writing spots open so send in your applications (see the classifieds). Also the holiday season is coming up and we here at the paper will all be going on a leave to spend the time with our families. This will cause the next issue of News Control to be delayed. Don’t worry though, we will return.

Thank you and enjoy,
Death Knoll
