support group for M.E.B.A. spouses...At
fever pitch, we run amuck and stir up a
free-for-all, melee edition that causes
quite a commotion. Don't go into
hysterics over unruly, helter-skelter
weeklies that'll have you pushing the
panic button. We read them the riot act
and make a fuss with a maritime media
frenzy that raises a ruckus. The Telex
Times is pure pandemonium!

lace up a high-top, cross-training issue
that goes cleats-up into another week.

with flip-flopping nonsense. We'll have
those scuffed-up, squeaky clodhoppers
shaking in their shoes! Come "Converse"
with the well-heeled edition that
"pumps" you up with plenty of maritime
spit and polish to boot. The steel-toed
Telex Times is good for the sole!

takes over humanitarian mission...Aker
construction update...Piracy Task Force
meeting...Stanza by stanza, the M.E.B.A.
laureate composes our latest little
ditty with a lyrical epic written in
Iambic pentameter. Refrain from
thematically poor, hack newsletters with
no rhyme or reason that read like a

affiliate on Hill...We take the gloves
off, get a grip on the news and point
the way towards another nail-biting
edition right at your fingertips. Keep

opposable weeklies that palm off their
ham-fisted, strong-arm tactics. We'll
keep you clapping with a snappy new
issue that takes you on a white knuckle
ride - we pinky swear! Follow this rule

edition from another planet. Don't get
abducted by unearthly, spaced-out
newsletters that melt your brain -
they're nothing to phone home about! For

a deep breath, pool together our
maritime resources and dive in with both
feet into a freestyle edition that makes
a big splash. Don't go off the deep end
with shallow, Speedo-wearing newsletters
that leave you with that sinking
feeling. We drown them out and blow
those belly-flopping dog-paddlers out of
the water! Take the plunge and immerse
yourself in a master-stroke of an issue
that'll have you floating. Reading the
Telex Times will make your head swim!

Latest piracy news...Aker launches new
ship...FRC wraps up work... We brighten
up the room in an incandescent,
million-megawatt edition that reflects
the full spectrum of illuminating
industry articles. Don’t blow a fuse

lose their luster and keep you in the
dark. Black out those flash-in-the-pan
dimbulbs and bask in the glow of another
shining example of journalism. The Telex
Times will light up your life!
APR 17, 2009

pirates...MAERSK ALABAMA crew back
home...Plus more piracy news and an Aker
construction update...We get in tune,
chime in with a top brass edition and
strike a chord with an up-tempo maritime
overture on a major scale. Don't go
whistling in the dark with tone-deaf,
second fiddle newsletters that should be
seen and not heard! We beat them like a
drum, toot our own horn and pipe up with
a high key, instrumental issue that'll
have you humming along. Music to your
ears, the Telex Times hits all the right
notes!

symposium... FRC elected...Hi-ho! In an
animated, World of Disney edition we
present a newsletter Magic Kingdom where
maritime dreams come true. Avoid

Mickey Mouse operation. Those
Fantasyland Dumbos have noses longer
than Pinocchio! Wish upon a star,
sprinkle some pixie dust, and pick up

fairytale ending. Jiminy Cricket! The
happiest place on earth, the Telex Times
is a Cinderella story!

Teutonic, zeppelin-sized issue from the
Hinterlands, we put you on the
information super autobahn with M.E.B.A.
und maritime news. Avoid the dreck in
non-germane weiner weeklies that go down
like the Hindenburg. Those ersatz,
lederhosen-wearing schweinhunds are
verboten! Have a glass of schnapps and
some strudel, put on Beethoven and get
the Uber-newsletter that grabs you like

wrong. They'll milk you for all you're
worth! We make rump roast out of them

give them a pink slip and bring you on a
white-knuckle maritime ride served up on
a silver platter. The blue-ribbon Telex
Times paints the town red!

fishermen...Members supporting
counter-piracy efforts...Obama rolls
back anti-worker statutes...Here goes
nothing! Starting from scratch, we skunk
the competition, shut-out the naysayers
and zero in on another issue. Don't get
goose-egged by 'null & void' newsletters
that'll never amount to anything - they
don't know diddly-squat! We cancel out
those empty-handed non-entities and send
them to oblivion as we zip along and
fill in the maritime blanks. It's love!
The Telex Times is second to none!
JAN 23, 2009
New CBJ deal...LaHood
confirmed...OVERSEAS BOSTON
christened...We come to order and hold
court with our written briefs that bring
the news to justice. The jury is still
out on frivolous, inadmissible
newsletters full of hearsay that get on
your case. They're a real trial to read!

Times has got you covered!

on Employee Free Choice Act...AFL-CIO &
Change to Win could reunite...Piracy
task force created...Fresh off our
manicure, we spoil you with a suave and
sophisticated ivy-league issue for the
upper crust that you can read on your
yacht. We turn up our noses at
unmannered, Neanderthal newsletters that
failed to evolve and send those ill-bred
barbarians back to the stone age.
They're so bourgeois! Have your
chauffeur pass the Grey Poupon along
with a debonair edition of the
high-society Telex Times. Reading
anything less would be uncivilized!
JAN 02, 2009
Pension bill signed...CG rule on
pollution response for oil tankers...EIS
Intent on Great Lakes discharges...We
put our house in order and do a good
deed as we close on a title-holding
issue with all the amenities. Don't

lessor newsletters that lead to buyers
remorse! We foreclose on those slumlords
and put a down payment on an affordable,
high-interest issue that'll make you
feel at home. The Telex Times gives you
a new lease on life!
