Have to say… thanks again boys - Wouldn’t have happened without your support!

And here’s a photo of the Mr. celebrating with a can of beans.

Nice!

For anyone who may be interested in the Enterprise, of WWII fame at least, and her legacy, please read: The Big E by Edward Stafford.

Not only is it the best book on the Enterprise, but it is one of the best written books on WWII that I have ever read. I guarantee you will enjoy it.

I accept your peace frenchman, and your humble surrender.

:P

We are brothers after-all! :D

The correct term for moi is ‘culturalist’.

OK.

So the first post of the cartoon was just like “huh?”

The discussion of NEDM and burning cats, turns my stomach.

It reminded me of the two Iraqi workers burned to death by a rocket about 20 yards from my workshop in Iraq.

Not a pretty sight.

artillery…king of battle. and death from afar

@Mr:

I disagree a bit here. I don’t think this war is a question of legal or illegal.
I don’t think you can sum up this war in one question at all. It is a clouded and complicated iusse.

It truly is, and everyone has different emphasises of importance on different questions on that issue.

If one is going to agrue the legality of this war than one has to say that action in Kosovo was illegal and should not have been done. The UN, as a body, did not approve it. However, the question is was it the right thing to do? I would think yes.

But the situation was different: First it was NATO going in, second the UN later de facto approved the action.

Thanks. And you weren’t bored?

regarding Risk 2110, I have played it and it is a lot of fun. Not nearly so involved as the AA games, but it is fast paced and wildly unpredictable. The main problem of the original Risk - players amassing enormous armies til it was foolhardy for anyone to attack anyone else - has been eliminated with the introduction of the command cards and “energy chips” (money). We got a four player game together, and there was just no way to tell who was “winning” because those damn cards can swing the balance of power in an instant. There’s also only 5 rounds to a game, so a player has to think ahead and yet not bide his time TOO long. Only played twice, but I’d say it’s worth the purchase price.
