Hel Soulless, the White Mage

[Whiskey]

At the request of Patrick, I will delve only slightly into the most evil literary work ever conceived by a hairless ape.

Beware, the words I type now will forever blur the boundaries of good and evil, law and chaos, order and calamity and so forth.

Those of you with deficient mental faculties should eschew reading further lest your souls(or whatever Wong has these days) be forever vexed.

Gentlemen(and ladies), I give you the Tome of Horrific Evil aka Robert Bartlett's The Making of Europe
Specifically page 151.

The unit, with it's various names, was customarily contrasted with another. In the document of 1230 recording the agreement between the Teutonic Knights and the bishop of Prussia, for example, the Slavic plough is contrasted with the German plough(aratrum Theutonicale). This was a common unit of assessment, sometimes referred to simply as 'the plough' (aratrum) in contrast to uncus or Haken. One Prussian document of 1293 specifies a tithe payment of a bushel of wheat and a bushel of rye from each aratrum and a bushel of wheat alone from each uncus. In 1258 the German Plough was contrasted with the Prussian uncus. In Poland, the terms of contrast were further elaborated. The Gniezno Synod of 1262 regulated tithe payments from each small plough, which is called radlo' and from the big plough, which is called plug. Elsewhere the Pflug is contrasted with the Haken, which makes for the equivalence of small plough and Haken, and hence uncus and 'Slavic' (or Polish) plough, on the one hand, and big plough with German plough, fairly obvious.

Taken word for miserable word. Noodle that one folks, and despair.

[Heavy D]

Thats fucking awful man did you have to read that for a class?

[Whiskey]

Yes. History of the Crusades course that Highlord and I had together. I cited that passage in particular during a paper to demonstrate to the professor the book and assignment were insane.

[Highlord]

I called Whiskey while I was writing my paper and asked him if he had gotten to page 151 yet, and he said...you mean the Haken and Pflug?

The humor is that we both wrote and cited the same passage in our papers, and essentially said the same thing regarding it. On my paper in the margin Dr. Burman wrote that I had not grasped the material if I was confused by the prose of the book. Whiskey made the same basic comments as I did, and Burman wrote in his "your criticism is partially valid."

Oh well...vengeance was ours as Burman later in the semester gave himself a 5 inch paper cut along the long axis of his nose while flipping the Rand MacNally map of the Holy Land.

[Whiskey]

Heh. His map debacle interrupted Derrick and myself while drawing a Star Destroyer cratering Asia Minor.

[Wong]

Hell Soulless was not the white mage, he was the dark cleric/mage created after Natas Sevil and Jesus Christ (Cleric of Kiri-Jolith). Whom, I might add could not be deleted from the list of created characters.

Now go beat yourself for wasting time typing that jibberish on the board and for wasting my time reading it. Fuckstick.

[Highlord]

I prefer to remember him as a white mage.

[FEAR]

My uncus has all ways been obvious and therefore is also partially valid. Go to hell from bringing this backup.

[Whiskey]

What, no good?

[Whiskey]

Wong, I forgot we couldn't delete JCCKJ. Weird. It may have something to do with the 30 dragonlances you managed to accumulate technically before the game allowed them.

[Jack Daniels]

I'm kind of glad I didn't transfer to UT after reading that passage. Was the whole book like that?
