THE THREAD

Yeah, one problem with being my age is that the red horde waiting to crash through Fulda was drummed into me pretty well. Plus I played way to many wargames with the poor 11th Cav just getting crushed[:)].

Heh, yeah...[:D]

A month or so ago a couple of Georgian UAVs were shot down. The Russians denied any involvement until the Georgians produced radar imagery of a MiG-29 taking off and flying towards the second UAV. The damning proof was from the UAV which filmed the attack run up until it's destruction. Russia is a bad neighbour. As they re-arm we are going to see more than a few power plays...

Ha! Just a few weeks ago, I was playing with the old SSI game Reforger '88 in an emulator. What fun that was. [8D]

My wife is working late tonight and my son is visiting his aunt and grandmother.  Beer and pretzels for dinner - Tithe. [&o][:D]
 
And, even though it's as far from the traditional "beer and pretzels" wargame, WitP is on the evening's agenda.  [8D]

Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle!  Bob has been AWOL from the forums for weeks, and I just learned another useful tip from him in one of the tech support threads.  [&o]
 
Do you guys think that posting a picture of Fluffy might subconsciously cause Bob to log in again?  [&:][:D]

Any big plans for the weekend?

[alaviner]

WU mk1 and i are going to dinner with friends tomorrow then I have Monday and tuesday off for vacation.  We are taking our daughter and one of her friends to Carowinds in Charlotte.

[USSAmerica]

Fun stuff!  I've not yet been to Carowinds.  Growing up in Baltimore, we frequently went to King's Dominion and Busch Gardens, in Va.  I love roller coasters!
