Well, Nuclearis, I raise a glass to you. Have another squid. And some more wine. And some more squid. And some more wine. And have some bread. It's good dipped in the sauce.
And Petro, the menu is beautiful! Ah, more squid choices to make the people happy! Vive la Squid!!

Senor Master, I thank you for your concern. Gastronome will be honored by this token of your respect. In life he loved little more than drinking good red wine and chewing on cacti. He said that the best part was the white, papery, watery bit. He will be remembered. Salud!

Dear Resident:
I am most pleased to inform you that the Spam Brand Squid Shop is now open. Although it does sell to individuals, seeing as the Tavern Iberian Delight is the hotbed of activity in the Spanish nation, Spam Brand Squid Shop is willing to sell large quantities of Squid to the Tavern. In fact, we gaurantee we will sell the Squid for a lower price than any other Squid Shop, gauranteed, until we run aground due to lack of profits.

I know what you're thinking--"This guy is a **** idiot! Lowest priced Squid in the land? He must be loco!" Well, you're partially right. Only the Spam Brand Squid Shop could sell Squid at such a low price. Do you know how it does it? VOLUME.

If you return this special one-time offer, we'll give you whatever we could find in the cave, such as...
-10% ownership of the Spam Brand Squid Company
-50 Free Squid (only applicable with year-long commitment)
-250 Free Squid (only applicable with exclusive lifetime commitment)
-1 MILLION Free Squid (we're pulling your leg)
-We might even give you a few of the clan slaves!

Check in one of the boxes:
[ ]YES, I want to have Spam Brand Squid!
[ ]NO, I do not want my customers to enjoy the tasty godness of Spam Brand Squid.
If YES, you want __________ number of Squid per
[ ]Day
[ ]Week
[ ]Month
[ ]I only want one hit.
for [ ] units of time that I picked. (Example, you say you want "600 number of Squid per [X]Day for [738] units of time that I picked.")

Signed,
/--|. (I am roleplaying how someone from our tiem would probably sign it.)

p.s. Would you like to recieve various promotions and items of interest from third parties?

Senor Pikesfan, I do have the appropriate contacts, of course. If you want squibs, you may have squibs...but I do really suggest that you do not eat them...

Senor Mitchell, the offer of partnership is open. Our squid prices can be made lower, of course, if you so desire.

Sorry for my long absence; I couldn't get out of my house [my internet connection didn't work].

Well, I'd sure like to let my customers be able to taste all the possible ways a squid can taste, so, mrmitchell, you have a deal. However, I wouldn't like to commit myself too much, so I want only 10 spam brand squid per month for one year. If it seems to be very popular, I will consider ordering more.

Now, what have I missed the past few days? Any good hunting? Any gossip?

As per your talk in the thread that the Spam Brand has low quality, we are now going to change the secret ingredient in our cooking process from cow intestines to--hey, we're not telling you!

(But don't worry, it's not cow intestines.)

Hm. 10*12=120, at 0.01/Squid that would be 1.20gold.

Yup. Yessiree.

What necessarily would "the Squid" be? It could be a codename, like for something top secret.

Oh! Sorry, well, of course, Senor, I am preparing for him A squid. A very good squid, I might add. Strong, and healthy, it was. Had to wressle the thing myself. Man, did it squirm. We had to leap down and battle the thing with our axes, but he still got Bob. Luckily, I had brough my hunting bow along, and after hitting him about three dozen times, he finally died. He'll be very good with bread crumbs.

I gossiped with my strange cousin Granolí, who thinks all the time about natural things and does everything only in the natural organic way, about the rumours concerning Spam Brand squid and his thought was “Was the squid pushed through the cow intestines in the natural organic way? I don’t want it if it’s not.”

I do eat my own Squid, I was just getting El Squid to see what was so better about it than Spam Brand that every one was whining about. I see no difference in taste. It appears everyone is just siding on the expensive side to feel like more of a rich person.

Senor Mitchell, you are most assuredly biased!

Petro, my amigo, I'd like to give you a few pounds of our newest product, Fried Squid Pieces, for your tavern. This will sell like hot-cakes, our best product yet. The pieces are quite small, and so the flavor is much more intense. These are either small squid, or portions removed from a larger squid. Fried in wine and oil, and with a red sauce for dipping. A large platter can be a whole meal, though they are recommended mostly for snacks or appetizers.

Also, give me a sherry.
