I have a question: Did anyone announce, before they took up residence somewhere, that they were going to and where? I was under the impression that everything here was free, as long as it didn't belong to someone else first.

	I don't know if I'm ever going to get used to this place. It's not something I'm unused to. Though I usually paid someone else to do it. The whore tent always had hot baths ready, even if only a handful of them actually used 'em. I'll be careful and toe that line then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	if Marion can adjust from living in medieval times to living here, you can adjust from the age of steam. You seem like a capable man, I'm sure you'll do fine. I have no doubt. Why go through the effort if you don't have to? It shouldn't be hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, you know what they say about old dogs. Yeah, exactly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're hardly old. You can't be more than forty at most. Well fortunately you can thank modern technology for plenty of labor savings. Now all you have to do is step into the tub and turn on the tap. I can probably rig up a stove for your tent too, shouldn't be hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Almost, not quite. I spent my first night in one of the apartments on the first floor. And I did see the Davis' indoor bathroom once, running water is something to marvel at. Yeah? You a machinist? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then you should have another forty, easy. Maybe even sixty. It really is. Technomage and electrical engineer, actually. The first has led me to be something of a jack of all trades. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Another modern thing? I think all I understood about that was the 'engineer' part. But I figure I'm a jack of all trades myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Modern doctors are more likely to be helpful than kill you now. Basically it boils down to me being really good at making things that can run on magical energy or electricity. Making something that just has to handle a wood fire? Child's play. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Fewer Indians and Mormons shooting at you probably helps too. That'll help out a whole lot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I get the Indians, but Mormons? I wouldn't call them pacifists but you don't expect them to shoot you in the course of everyday life. I'll send the boys out to some of the stores and see if they can find a wood burning stove for you. If they can't then I'll see what I can do. I should be able to whip something up or get Tony Stark to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, I had a mess of them shooting at me when I rode onto the island. Mormons can be pretty violent. They don't have to do that, I've been looking, I just wasn't sure where to look. So it's been systematically everywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Learn something new every day.

They're island born and bred, if anyone can find something quickly they should be able to. That would be kind of a specialized item these days. I think there was a wood burning stove craze in place of fireplaces back when my parents were teenagers from what I've heard, but it hasn't been a necessity since they came up with central heating.

	And they're quick, they were more shoot first ask questions later. Alright. If you insist, and they don't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I forget sometimes you were at the start of the 'Wild West'. I do and they'll do it because I asked them to. It isn't as if anyone has a 9-5 job around here tying them up all day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Izzy \| Bohannon cullen_bohannon 2015-12-02 04:13 am UTC (link)
	I don't know about the start of it. There's folks in California. Is any job really 9-5? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I thought that was the gold rush but history wasn't my strongest subject in school. Some! It's a moot point here though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isn't that where it started? I was working on laying rail for Union Pacific. I can't say any of the jobs I've ever had were 9-5. So I'm alright with it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Izzy \| Bohannon izzyshaw 2015-12-03 01:58 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe? But in popular culture it was out between California and the Mississippi. Usually Texas and out on the plains. 9-5 wasn't really a thing for most people until the 20th century I think, but like I said history was never my best subject. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I reckon I was in the thick of it then. I was riding towards Cheyenne before I got here. Must have been nice. Me, I've been a up at dawn, quit after sunset, worker most of my life. (Reply to this) (Parent)
