	What's not to love about free booty? Unfortunately I'm afraid all positions are filled. You'll have to get your sunken treasure and sandwiches elsewhere... [She trails off as she realizes what he said.] Wait. You know... You're his friend Vince? [Not really a bad thing, just a surprise.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You can uh, ask Paul about that and um, send me some kinda ...grant... or... Yeah, a donation. [Laughs, how ironic!] Just give me a sum. I have to go all of a sudden. Nice chatting with you!
