Poultry Lad has it all wrong. It's New Englanders who are slow. Remember? They are reserved, laconic, and staid. Slow to form alliances, slow to develop affection, and disinclined to shows of emotion.

How about an HBO series about Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser?

Perhaps Ben Afflec can take the part of Hans Bilgewort, a lonely lighthousekeeper in Newfoundland who falls for Eva Corn, a longshorewoman of questionable virtue. They have a torrid love scene inside the lighthouse, where some whacky Canadian RAF pilots had draped parachutes to dry. When Affleck points the lighthouse's piercing light into the eyes of a German U-Boat commander, blinding him temporarily so that he beaches his vessel, Afflec is given command of the HMS Ulysses. He rams Ulyssess into Tirpitz, Gniesenau and Prince Eugen, sinking all three, but discovering the Eva was actually a bosun in the German Navy. She informs him that his son is actually the love child of Admiral Donitz. The End.
I don't know. The whole love child of Donitz thing has been done to death. Maybe Ulysses, while under US command, could capture an Enigma machine?

Southerners, on the other hand, fly off the handle. We're quick to see; to evaluate; to decide; to jump on you like Early jumped on Sheridan at Cedar Creek!

I thought you guys already knew. I actually "am" the illegal love child of Donitz.
Fox is making a movie of the whole thing. Neal Patrick Harris plays me and Larry Hagman plays Donitz. Thing is he is called Donneritz in the movie. My lawyer tells me that they do not have to pay me any royalties that way...
I really have to update my profile one of these days....

I would like to see "enders game" by Orson Scott Card turned into a movie.
