[Michael Cone <Michael.Cone@apollogrp.edu>]

SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA- "High Dive" Mason logs a report in the Grand Library
of a stunning find. The eccentric courier swears that the public library in
Lincoln, Nebraska is intact. However, Mason says that the enclaves in the
area have stories that the local mutant tribes will not enter the Ghost
Storm around the city for some reason.

APACHE JUNCTION, ARIZONA- In an effort to promote goodwill and
communications between settlements, Piper of the Engineering Society is
offering a fully assembled water purifier and a military grade Geiger
counter for each town that will field a Skullchucker team for some regular
games in Junkyard.

LYNCHBURG, CALIFORNIA- Panderborn the Junker logs a report to Law Dogs that
the notorious "Hellcat" Bradley has been spotted north of the Shan Fan
ruins. Bradley was driving a junker-modified hover truck sporting heavy
weaponry and was seen in the company of a light combat cyborg.  Panderborn
has heard rumors that Hellcat is talking about buying recovered bio-weapons
from someone on Turtle Isle.

NEAR BEAUMONT, TEXAS- Bonhomme Boudreaux, the Trader Baron from New Orleans,
logs a report with the Law Dogs concerning the enigmatic character called
Mister Whisper. The person in question had stayed a night in town and was
offering another mysterious bargain to the locals. Whisper has a standing
offer of six Northern Alliance automatic rifles, a footlocker full of ammo,
and a backpack full of antibiotics to anyone who can journey to the flooded
ruins of West Memphis, Arkansas and uncover the location of the General J.T.
Cornpone Memorial Hospital. The interested parties must return with a small
portable freezer hidden somewhere on the upper administration levels. The
unit must maintain a constant subzero temperature. Boudreaux and "Hardcase"
Curtis the Law Dog are offering a fully furnished home in Near Beaumont;
free of charge to anyone that brings the freezer to the Texas town for
examination
BOISE, IDAHO- Scouts from the Convoy report twenty-seven bodies dead from
radiation poisioning, most corpses are covered with insect bites. They were
found just off the interstate between Deadwood and Boise, heading toward
Boise. Strange things may be afoot in Blue Ridge, any one willing to go and
investigate will be paid in ghostrock on the following scale: 2oz =scout and
report, 8oz =details of the attacks, 1lb. =rescue of Robbie and party in
addition to the above, 12oz irridated ghostrock =return of the ghostrock
from the caravan and elimination of attackers along the interstate.
