Alright, there are a few matters of which some of you should be informed.
Dan, dear one, we're afraid you've fallen for a very old line. The
"Satan" to whom you've been so casually refering is in actuality a minor
demon with an inflated sense of self. Actually, your self-reference as a
"Tool" of Satan should explain what your true status here was. And forget
the revolution, your army has been turned into a patch of juniper bushes and
are to be consumed by rabid albatross for eternity. But, seeing as we bear
you no malice (we understand what change can wreak on a person), and we wish
to avoid one of those dreary flames that have so plagued this group, we have
a proposition.
Dan, you have been formerly released from your Tool status. Seems you
weren't much use in the first place in the always demanding business of
damnation. However, we hereby extend a formal invitation for an executive
position (uselessness being a positive boon for an executive). We would be
ecstatic if you would take our opening as the Watcher of the Second Circle
(namely, the Lustful {or something like that: our record department is an awful mess}). It's incredible fun, and trust us, a secure posit in the hierarchy, one given only to those of which we hold the highest
respect. Oh, and the "useless" remark-it was not meant as an insult: every
demon misapplies his Tool to the point of uselessness. You can keep your
title, but c'mon, you can be more than mere tool. What say, can we be pals?
Also, we have been disturbed by someone offering the First Circle as a
bargaining chip. While we certainly don't condemn deals that turn sour, a
fool and his money and all that, use of the trademark could cause serious
image problems. Hell is NOT yours to offer.
Those who clutter up the Duke of Despair's bandwidth with insipid
bickering and "irritates" messages will fi Hell very unpleasant indeed.
'Dat's all. Oh, and while we have not been to Detroit ourselves,
we think we met someone from there once, and we could take it, no problem.
This post was much too long.
We worship and admire you too, Eccles (but dont expect any favors)
Brian aka getting the hang of this royal plural thing
Oh, Paolo, I really thought you were gonna get her that time...
