FOURTH OF JULY CHARM ON SALE IN CHEZ DIESEL

by Hazed

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July, Independence Day, the holiday celebrated by citizens of Earth living in the economic area that used to be known as the United States of America (before the planet was brought under the governance of a single entity, the International Administration - later renamed the Planetary Administration and then the Galactic Administration as its sphere of influence expanded).

To celebrate Independence Day, Diesel has invited her old chum the craftsman* to set up in her bar on Mars and sell a special Fourth of July charm, a globe containing a tiny mechanical band which plays an appropriate tune.

The globe charm costs one slithy tove, and you need to be in possession of a keyring in order to buy one. (Keyrings can be had from Gallaghers on Earth and they, too, cost one slithy).

To buy yourself one of these charms, use 'BUY GLOBE'. Then you can 'CLIP GLOBE CHARM' to dangle it from your keyring, so that everybody who looks at you will see it. 'WIND GLOBE CHARM' will make the miniature musicians do their thing.

The charm will be available until the end of July.


* Nobody knows the craftsman's name. It is rumored that if you ever guess it correctly, he will give you a free charm.
