First turn is sent back to Historiker in our new campaign game. Waiting for the bombs to fall on Pearl Harbor at any moment now. [8D]

AAR?

Mike, I'd like to have one. I enjoy doing them, but time is a precious commodity right now. This game is going to be played at an agreed upon very slow pace, as we are both busy most of the time. We expect to be old and gray when we finish. [:D] That pace doesn't make for very captivating reading. [:)]

Well, it's day 4 of my new job. Getting used to civilian government. I thought the military was inefficient. [8|] My core hours are 0900-1500. Other than that, I set my schedule. I work 0630-1500. Miss traffic both ways. [:D] On Monday, my boss showed me to my cubicle. Nothing at all in it, not even a chair! [:D] They scrounged me a chair and requested a computer and phone from the government. The goal is to get it in 2 weeks. A couple of guys who sit near me said it took them 3 months. [X(] I spend a lot of time looking over their shoulders asking questions but my boss still hasn't decided what I'm going to do. I guess he has time to decide. [:D] When I'm not looking over someone's shoulder, I spend a lot of time plotting my next turn, on paper of course. [:D]

Off to work!

Wow. I miss government work. [:D]

As we already agreed to a pace that will involve our granchildren to help us make the last turns, we can as well do an AAR.

Maybe an AAR will happen, but if I have time, I'll always choose playing a turn first. [:)]

That's why I gave up on running an AAR years ago. I had started one with my CHS PBEM, but since I didn't want to do one by just posting combat reports I found that it took a lot of time to make a creative AAR happen - and I would rather put that time into playing the game.

The Easter Bunny lives on Lopez Island. You're just going to have a hard time picking him out from among the thousands of fat bunnies overrunning that island...

Are you telling me that the Easter Bunny has a posse? [X(]

Afternoon tithe... Go to the city on Wednesday, to go into hospital for my next opo. Looking forward to all those lovely nurses to look after me, and the hospital food )The Dunedin hospital food is surprising good, and I say that with Mrs DivePac being a trained Chef).

But don't get carried away while I'm gone, as I have mobile Internet, so I'll be watching.

Good luck avian dude. Try not to pinch too many nurse derrieres. [;)]

Any input would be quite helpful.

Booga! Baoon! Icky! Yeh! Hoppy! Meh! Floogy! Binga-binga! Whoa!

Oddly enough, that was more constructive than your usual post. [:'(]

I'm with Leo on this one. All countries are beautiful at least somewhere. At least I've never seen one that wasn't nice somewhere. You've just got to be selective in where you look.

Morning tithe...[&o]

Off to Phoenix for a respite from the interstellar space temperatures. [makes weighing gesture with hands] Hmmm...80F and sunny or 10F and cloudy? Which one do I want for 10 days? Hmmm...[&:]

Looking for spring chickens?
