@Topmat:

Hope your game goes great!  :-D

Thanks we had a good time. We finished that game and played another on Sat.  Then I dug out my Axis & Allies Navel ships and Wings of War (WWI & WWII) we played all those too. So we played a lot of games over the weekend I really enjoyed the time glad I never got rid of those things.

Looking forward to seeing Peking China, in ruins after the next great war.

A great movie I saw was called Rosenstrasse it is in German but it is a movie about Aryan wives who are married to jews.
Don’t wanna go into too much details but I certainly liked it and if you can find it I would reccomend it.
It doesn’t have any fighting however but it is WWII Nazi Germany based

Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein.  The atmosphere of the book is SOOO early 1960s, but it is truly one of the best novels I have ever read, period.  And what’s more – nowhere near 1,000 pages!  :-)

they werent.  but the library of alexandria had a lot of monks, priests, and other laymen all over that place.  if they wanted to save some stuff they could have, and probably did, but let the rest burn.

so no-one has read ismael, my ishmeal, or the story of B?

Or playing videogames like “Crash and Burn,” or “Doom,” or running around in our birthday suits on the field during an NFL game.

But hey, at least you girls weren’t subject to the draft back in the day when women mostly stayed at home.

Although I can see how a womans’ life would become very much repetitive and BORING just sitting around at home, which is why the boardgame industry was booming in those days (I’ve been un-employed for about 2 months now and it’s driving me insane, one would think it’d be easier to get  ajob in the big city).

This isn’t impressive at all. Spain had little where to go but up. They’re still Portugal’s black-sheep cousin (and Portugal was a 3rd world country 19 years ago). It’s not like he took a “great nation” and made it “greater”. After all, twice 2 pennies is only 4 pennies.

And the same could have been said about Canada when you speak of it’s economic growth. :wink:
