Ten Good Reasons to Impress A Bronze
1) A bronze is the ultimate fashion accessory. Nobody ever looked bad riding a bronze.
2) Instead of hearing, “Out of my way, you runty little twerp,” from Holders and Crafters, you’ll be greeted with, “What can I do for you, Mr. Bronzerider, sir?”—and they’ll mean it.
3) You’ll never have to wait in line to get your dragon fed.
4) At least six greens rise every month. Enough said.
5) Impressing a bronze is a statement that you’re no flower-sniffin’, long-haired, red-meat-shunning pantywaist (also known as The J’ton Corollary).
6) Someday, your portrait may grace a suit in a deck of playing cards.
7) Bronzes in the Weyr get priority. You’ll never lack for rank, cushy quarters, good clothes, willing bedmates . . . polar patrols, leading flights in bad ‘Falls, Threadscores, saddle sores from unconditioned wherhide, ulcers, joint-ail . . .
8) No matter how seedy the bar is or how rough its patrons are, with your bronze you’re ten feet tall and weapon-proof.
9) You can acquire lots of neat stuff on Search – beltknives, jewelry, some new Holder girls to hang up on the wall . . .
10) You’re automatically in line to get the Big Guy’s job, his Weyrwoman, and his piles from sitting in that big, cold stone chair.

Ouch! Did you just come up with that now, or is it vintage?

Ouch! Did you just come up with that now, or is it vintage? ::evil snicker:: I started working on it when I first joined Fort. It percolated a couple of years later, and I've had it lying around ever since. I think it needs a companion piece. What do you think? Say, "Ten Good Reasons To Ride A Gold"?
