Heh ... I feel your pain Comrade Red Mouse. Just started to pack my cartons ... [:'(]

Luckily for me, it's a short hop within the city.

Perhaps you'd like to join me next July when I get to move to a "mystery destination"? [:D] Maybe St. Louis, maybe Jacksonville, maybe "who-the-hell-knows?". [8|] But I'd be delighted to share the "joy" of the "moving experience" with you. Sometimes I wish U-haul has chosen a different motto then "Adventures in Moving" . How about "a really easy job with no drama"? It's not catch, but it would be very welcome! [:D]

After the 1st 3,000 mile move , it's all downhill. Of course the 8-9,000 mile moves still really suck! [X(]

I think you will find though that she was not scuttled at all. HMS Rodney and HMS KGV spent 24 hours trying to inflict damage on the German wonder ship - without success. Meanwhile, Rafe McCauley, who was en vacances in Ireland, recovering from the Doolittle Raid (during which he personally laid waste to Tokyo) got wind of the naval contretemps and hired a fishing boat which he loaded with some spare torpedoes he found lying around.

To save the RN from further ignominy and defeat, he sailed single handed (with only Kate Beckinsale and Matt Damon for company) in the fishing boat to the battle zone. Once there he immediately launched said torpedoes and sunk the pride of the Kriegsmarine. The British claimed the credit, and in the name of Allied togetherness, Rafe kept Schtum.

Only now, thanks to Michael Bay, can the true story be told. Coming to a cinema near you soon "Sink the Bismarck? F^&* Yeah".

That would be most unlikely , but preferrable to SOME places the Government has sent me. [:D]

Well, I hope that you can send me back the turn before you have to pack up, Steve. [:'(]

[Grollub]

After reading/hearing about Steves moving activities I'm quite happy that Sweden is such a small country. I could barely squeeze in a 1000 mile move if I tried really hard to make it happen [:'(]

No problem. In fact I should be able to SEND YOU packing by then. [:D] That is to say your LYB electron-troopers! And in fact, if we were to do it in spring , we could do one more "Mid-America" summit before I'm off to where ever. [:D]


On the other hand, if I'm really, really lucky , and Santa brings me what I want , we could hold a "Northern Florida summit!". [:D]

Unless Sweden decides to purchase Guam, or opens a base in , oh say Japan, you probably won't need to worry about such a posting. On the other hand , at almost every embassy you DO have defense attaches. Isn't most of the billets within your paygrade? [:D]

I'm sure it is. Does it have a large USN/USAF base ? If not, then I'm pretty sure that I'm not going there. [:D]

Purchasing Guam sounds like a good idea and a lot warmer as well. Thanks for the tip [:D]

The defense attache posts could very well have been within my reach, if it wasn't for the fact that I've found my "cozy spot" at the defense college and thus feel no need to do such a career move [:'(]

"East Ubanga"?

Ubanga? Isn't that what Berlusconi had at his lavish parties?

On a personal note: I'm so very disappointed to hear that he won't be running for a fourth term. He was always great comedic humor fodder. There hasn't been a European with such an impact on the humor front since...well...Generalisimo Francisco Franco. [:D]

Before starting my last AE game, I had thoughts on modding the pilot roster adding the pilot "Rafe McCauley". He would then have spent MY entire war flying a Stearman out of Nome, Alaska. [;)]

It might have been more entertaining to have him flying a P-26 in the PI on the opening morning.[:D]

That also seems like a good use of his talents [:D]

ETA; Then one would at least get ONE good cheer out of the surprise turn [:'(]
