Sterckx,I love your doggie picture. That is just too cool!  Did you prop your dog there for a pose?

No, he really plays Highway to the Reich [;)]

Seriously : he likes to sit on my lap while I'm playing a game and likes to "help" his boss by hitting keys on the keyboard and whacking the mouse, more or less in imitation of me. If you ever got a "qfdqf sdqjfkqs qsdfjsqd" email from me you know what I'm talking about.

One day I had this "ok, I'll get up and let you play by yourself" mood and took a picture of him to show my wife.

Bad move as it gained me a "did he beat you *again* in a game" wisecrack [;)]

Greetz,

ilovestratergy.....never mind the dog pix....how you get ur cats to pose in their little karate suits ????[:D][&o]


I got that somewhere off of the internet. I don't possess even a fraction of the artistic skill to make a picture like that. [:(]

I would love to know how the originator did it too! [:)]

Whenever my wife complains about my computer time I remind her of when we first started dating and moved in together after 6 months and I set up my 286 before I set up the TV set.

I tell her she should have gotten the hint in 1991.

Oh, I have to know, what was her answer?

Well, at least she doesn’t mind me wargaming – on the contrary – she’s a vicious competitor in games like BattleCry, Risk and even FPS games. Played exactly 1 game in Doom co-op mode with her and she shot me in the back “oops, didn’t see it was you” <evil grin> – yeah, right [:D]

And she’s not the only one, got a couple of wargame buddies who’s wife/gf are pretty much the same - the day Matrix finally has that “Buy a Voucher” button on their website they’re going to make some extra bucks from them buying their wargame hubbies a X-Mas present.

Yup - got two of them - bright and friendly dogs - the kind where you put up a sign "never mind the dogs, beware of the owner" [;)]

Her usual retort is "I know married a geek sometimes its just annoying that I keep getting reminded of the fact everytime I see you sitting there with headphones on"
