It snows a foot and a half, and everyone starts beating each other for fun.

This is why I left the east coast.

Hello. Am I using this correctly? My name is Guinevere. I just arrived this morning.

Let Me Google That For You.

Good afternoon, Gentlemen and Ladies.

The existence of (the now defunct) AskJeeves.com was recently brought to my attention. I was rather intrigued.

Thanks to the wonders of modern convenience, my gentleman has become marginally more self-sufficient which I believe to be the greatest example of scientific and social progress imaginable, even if it comes at my own expense.

For example, now, because Mr. Wooster has taken a shine to waking up the the 'music' of Lady Gaga as emitted from his digital alarm, I am no longer needed to rouse him (most of the time). Poor quality cocktails are now pre-packaged in offensively styled bottles that only require un-capping. Letters are not transferred via electronic device, and thus my duties as mail-deliverer have been reduced (though I still need to hand deliver the vocabulary-rich notes taped to our door regarding Mr. Wooster's early morning/ late evening jazz piano practice).

Regardless, as a man who has always valued self-education and providing aid for others, I would like to reinstate, here, the AskJeeves.Com programme. If anyone has an inquiry about anything, I will research the topic and provide an answer.

There are no subjects which I consider off limits -- in a way, I would like to act as a refugee concierge. My services will go beyond the mere supply of information. For a fee I will also locate and deliver requested objects, clothing, etc. Of course, I must always work around the set schedule of my gentleman, Mr. Wooster, but otherwise I can promise timely, exceptional and unrivalled results.

Thank you Sincerely,

R. Jeeves

[Filtered AGAINST Bertie Wooster]
After a great expenditure of effort on my part, I've located possible employ for Mr Wooster, my employer who has failed to realise that the cheques he has been supplying me with since my arrival refer to funds in a bank that does not and has never existed.

If you would all be so kind as to visit Brandy's Piano Bar (235 East 84th Street) this evening between the hours of 9PM and 1AM I'm sure you'll find yourself delightfully entertained by the "skilful" playing and "talented" singing of one Mr. Wooster.

There is a tip jar located on the piano. Do be generous, he could stand the encouragement.

Sir,

I received...a telegram this morning. It appears news of your musical mastery has reached America's shores. You have been requested to preform this evening at a well-known establishment. I did take the liberty to inform them, however, that under no circumstances would you be able to preform under such terribly short notice. They were terribly disappointed and I believe they might actually close their doors, under the impression that without having you on their stage there is simply no reason to stay in business.

Shall I prepare your coffee?

Of all the places this tesseract object could have deposited us, it chooses New York? It couldn't have chosen somewhere civilised?

Pray, what was so wrong about the old York?

It would appear that I find myself among those who, until now, I believed merely to be fictional. I don't find this in any way disheartening or unexpected. After all, what is destiny if not a plot already written which we are meant to follow.

I think, in a situation as this, the only question may be whether or not we want to happen upon our own endings.

Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today.

[Network Post Visible to Everyone EXCEPT Bertie Wooster]
Am I correct in my assumption that normal conversational etiquette has corroded over the past eighty years? And if so, was the invention of these networks directly responsible for humanity's decent into devious garrulousness?

Hello, everyone. My name is Virginia Potts. I'm better known as (and answer to) the moniker that Tony gave me many years ago, Pepper.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome you all to the Refugee Network. Tony Stark - as well as many others - created the network so you would have a safe space to talk without the prying eyes of the media. I'd like to give them a warm thank you for their hard work.

Some of you have been here for a while, and as of today, the Tesseract has given us more refugees than it has in the previous five months, and it's still going. I'd like to take a moment to thank the hard-working men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D. for their diligence and perseverance. Without their quick thinking when refugees began to appear, this would have been nearly impossible for any one of us to handle.

And on that note, Director Fury has asked me to pass along the message that they are in dire need for Administrative Staff to help with processing. Anyone who is interested can pass on a note to your Housing Assistant.

Speaking of, there should be one Housing Assistant per two floors (and in one case, three floors). Should you require any assistance, they should be able to help you. Potts Tower is not a new building, but we have gutted it, given it an ARC reactor for clean energy, a full service gym in the basement, an outdoor patio and pool area, and an entertainment area. We plan to utilize all of these areas in the upcoming holiday season in the hopes that it helps alleviate some of the melancholy of being without your families.

Once again, welcome to the Refugee Network and Potts Tower, and I look forward to getting to know you.

-Virginia Potts
