>>>>[Listen up, This is the old HKC, coming attacha. Y'all may know Jennie Zero. One time naive, optimistic media slut now bitter, paranoid cynic info terrorist. She used to talk shit, now broadcasts the hard, unvarnished truth of life in 2070 to all... whether they listen or not. What I got here is the one of the unpublished happy, hippy crap she was working on before the badness came and screwed her up last year [2069].

So live and learn, and watch for the 'tats!]<<<<< - Hong Kong Cavalier

(Female Voice): "You're damn skippy, I am. Now give me the soap, sit on the toilet and shut up while I shower and tell you of.... THE COURIER CLANS <hammy theatrical voice>" --- "Like I said, This is what you'll hear on the streets. It's a good story. Not necessarily a true story, though. I know bits different. But here's how it went down. We go back 20 years. Old HK. There was, ohhh 6 Triads then (or was it 8). Anyway, more than now. Those other's been absorbed, wiped out or... well, that's another legend. But they ran things much as now. Passing shit down and getting the little people to do the work. Either by fear (for those not wanting to part of a triad) or promise (for those that did).
