Remembrance day

Happy Fathers Day to all the players with children (hope you’ve had the chance to play A&A with them).

Spent five hours playing A&A this Fathers Day with one son and the other son who is living the dream in Colorado sent me this drawing.  He wishes he was here playing as well.  It’s been great to share these games with them over the years and in the years to come.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!

– Mary Frye (1932)

I accept…terms are set. I slap you with a dead fish!

I burn down the white house

Brits already did that

And British North America.

What?? British North America burned the White House?

With Britain, yes.

Since Canada was a British territory, this was a british act

It was somewhat a separate colony

Canada wasn’t given any autonomy until July 1, 1867, which is what Canada Day celebrates. The Burning of the White House took place during the War of 1812 in 1814.

I never said Canada, I said British North America.

Great post IL

Sorry Switch, they aren’t real girl scouts. You have to special order those.  :wink:

Your right Frimmel, the thin mints don’t do so well in the heat. Bojangles packed a box once and and he ended up just pouring them into his mouth. Most of us just carry peanut butters.

I don’t have all the details on where these cookies came from. Apparently some company in the states wanted to ship 300 boxes of girl scout cookies to the army guys, but they added an extra 0 on there. The Army got more than they needed, and gave us a few.  :-D

Hey all,
    This is all you need to know about Jesus of Nazerith, the Messiah of the Jews, ( the chosen one, which in Greek is Christos).
This is how it went down;
  About 2007 years ago a child was born to a woman named Mary.
  Jesus as a young man performed many miracals, (well documented by all the news services at the time) some of which even the Emperor of Rome heard about.
  He professed the “good news” that whoever believed what he had come into this world to teach us and followed the lifestyle that He professed, (that is, how to treat one another as outlined in the Beattitudes) then you shall know everlasting joy in the presence of your Creator.
  As was foretold in the ancient Hebrew Tora, (Bible) God sent his only Son to be the final sacrifice that would allow mankind to be removed from the laws of Moses allowing all mankind to be able to converse directly to Him through prayer. So, Jesus was beaten, humiliated, and then went willingly to the cross for crimes that he did not commit.
After 3 days he rose from the grave and was seen by many! He proved that death of the physical body was not the end of our existence. That God had the power over death, and that all mankind had the right to obtain that gift.
How is this accomplished?
By faith, and by the rebirth of the Holy Spirit in you.
Take heed, it takes a brave soul to make such a leap of faith. And the sacrifices one has to make are no less than a change of heart and of lifestyles. Too much for some sad to say.
But for those that do, rest assurd a better future awaits them.

@dezrtfish:

Just curious, is that the day they tell her secret?

you don’t want to know.

Yeah, I guess DC is a good place to visit if you’re a tourist. But, like Hollywood, you don’t want to live there. :wink:
