Why Does Pike Call Grog Buddies

Why does pike call grog buddies. Isn't the term he uses for ravens an oxymoron, since pike is only black and ravens are normally brown?

"Friend" is not meant to be taken literally. The official written language (Aard) refers to Black ravens as "baen brooks," meaning "bruising brothers." I think Pike calls a raven Raven because Grog is always telling him about a Raven that saved him. It's just a nickname of "Ravenbro," who they keep locked up in Pike's quarters, since they're unruly.

That's the problem. The language that Pike uses has so many contradictions. Isn't the language where they all came from supposed to be an all knowing language? And yet one of the first things they learn... is not to speak that language? There are just so many contradictions of this language. Also, is there a reason why raven and bear were "subspecies" of manticore? That's the only thing that seems to make any sense.

Thomas Lobar Garden Hose

Thomas lobar garden hose is a decent product and the lavender essential oil smell is pretty great. I bought mine for just this purpose because of my unapologetic love of lavender. (I also live in Texas, just to be clear) Liar, Texas does not have weeds, only flowers. Source: Tx kid I'll be sure to turn around and plant a fence around it! Ha! (We actually do have a lot of grassy areas where the grass gets high and no weeds, but it's not every day). It was a joke. I am sure there is lots of that in your area (deserted, alien, desert... I forget what kind of place it's even called) If it's anywhere in Texas it's got the border between Mexico and south Texas. There are plenty of little towns and farms that aren't far off the interstate (that's the road between Austin and San Antonio, and I've driven it!) I figured it was part of the Texas landscape. It's far from here. I just remember looking at a map once and seeing all of those Cactus Was...

Rfc 5322

Rfc 5322 is probably your culprit. Set it to disable phone numbers as you navigate pages. Probably needs a settings update. Except Google stops it from working. Google Voice works well. That's interesting. I had no problems with gv after it was disabled. Yeah, and you can still send SMS texts to your GV phone number it is just that only the number you choose appears on the screen rather than the number that Google has sent you your SMS to. (I think) It's not just gv. That's why I'm saying it should get updated. Apparently it is an rfc 5308 type protocol. I would believe as much. The good ol' RFC isn't the most well-documented of things. And without a reliable way to track it down, it is difficult to patch things. Do you have a link to info about that? I was unaware. I can't dig it up. I just know it exists. And that at the time of rfc 5322 it was known to be broken.
