Dear Berli, You are a hack. I just finished reading your post post in the latest "what is the Peng thread" thread and I have a couple of points I must take issue with. I am NOT Pengs sidekick..he is my little lap dog. I begged him to check out CSL/CM for a year and half before he finally checked in when the demo was released. I am also surprised at you that I posted the first proper Peng comments in this thread in avery long time and a fraud like you didn't even call me a butthole or react at all to The Word of Peng. You should be ashamed of yourself. I think it is time for us to do battle again. Please send me a set up NOW. Love, Elvis P.S. It would also be nice to post the link to you Peng web page for those of us morons who never bookmarked it for furture reference.

Dear Unwashed, I asked Peng how the Springsteen concert that I missed the other was an receivedbthis response. Since much of it concerns our High School days I can only assume that he wrote it for someone else. So here it is: "Emilio Carranza died in a plane crash in 1928 in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. I know this little tit-bit of information because there is a concrete and cinder block memorial to him near the crash site. It is just a few miles off of route 206 on, appropriately enough, Carranza Memorial road. My friends, all members of Deviates Ltd, and our associates used to drive to Carranza in caravans of two or three cars with coolers of beer, more dope than you could possibly smoke in one evening and enough teenage testosterone oozing from every pore to turn an army of women into an army of sasquatches. If you rode in Doug's 69 Camaro convertible you listend to Springsteen at maximum volume the whole way. Carranza was off the beaten path, usually unoccupied at night, and we could be noisy, rude and howl at the moon if we wanted and no one would bother us. Or so we told ourselves. A few years after we had Graduated high school, we were all together again and someone suggested a road trip to Carranza. There were manly grunts of assent and shouts for blood and beer and dope when a lone voice, Tigger's, said "NO! something BAD always happens when we go there!" It wasn't true of course, something bad only happened three out of four times we would go there. A DUI, a flat tire, a lost ounce of reefer, a night in the drunk tank, or a couple of hours grunting and sweating trying to get a car out of a ditch or a sand pit or a giant puddle that Doug insisted was not too deep to go through. Springsteen was the soundtrack to our lives back then, we were living in his music, from getting stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey, to racing in the streets, he was our muse, our voice and We howled along with the dogs on mainstreet. Mr., I aint a boy, I'm a man and I believe in a Promised land. So seeing him in the year 2003, 27 years since the last time I saw him live, on stage, I felt a bit odd singing "Baby this town rips the bones from your back, its a death trap a suicide rap we gotta get out while we're young..." at the top of my voice while I bounced around in a throng of similarly old, balding, thick in the middle men, and thier saggy breasted, wider in the tail wives. I felt silly. No. I felt FRAUDULENT. (and maybe a little flatulent. it happens when you get old...). Sure, Born to Run is a fabulous song: When I was 17 I sang "I want to die with you Wendy, on the streets tonght in an everlasting kiss" and I MEANT IT. But last night, while the song still gave me chills, there was a certain sense of guilt for being alive and kicking at the ripe old age of 41. After all, Talkin bout my g-g-g-generation I was supposed to DIE before I got old. But I am alive, and it is hard to feel anything but good when you are at a Springsteen concert. After all these years he looks like he is still having fun - bold, underlined, all caps, italicized fun - and only the chronically self absorbed like me can think about things other than dancing and singing and enjoying the show. The crowd was different, this time, The old fans like me are actually old people, and new fans bring their cell phones and talk on them to their friends in section 23 between sets instead of meeting them in a stall in the men's to spark up a doobie (The war on drugs has taken its toll). Something is crawling up the back of my head and telling me that I saw Springsteen when he toured "The River." (OK so maybe the war on drugs is a good thing...) Maybe. I stopped caring when "Born in the USA" came out. over the years Bruce went from being at the front of my mind and the soundtrack of my life to the back, musty corners. I changed. I got married got children got a career and got older. The new stuff from "The Rising" was great, even though I went to the show unprepared. There's no excuse for that in this day and age when I could have downloaded the album on P2P and burned it to a cd and been listening to it in my car every day. But. I am a slacker. Always have been, and always will be. If Ihad been with Doug, I would have at least heard the Rising in its entirety with commentary, criticism and backstory on the ride to the stadium, but I was with my dear wife, who also enjoyed the show immensely. We were close enough to the stage to be hit by sweat, and she swears that once he was looking right at her and pointed to her and smiled. I believe her because Patti did the same thing to me! Although my wife claims Patti was really looking at her. On the way to our Minivan after the show, we were conducting the post mortem: what song did you like best? what was the highlight of the show? which one could you have done without and what song did you want in its place? When Debbie said, "Do you think that Bruce thinks of me as just another fan?" I laughed, "of course not! He knows you're his biggest fan!" I hope you enjoyed this. Love, Elvis

Dear Ms. Sedai, You fought a fine fight. It was, of course, silly of you to imagine that ever had a chance against me. You did put up much more of a fight than Mr. Sedai puts up so the bonus points given to you for that create a draw in my book. And rune, if it was you who designed this scenario , I am very disappointed. Unimaginative and crude. A silly little capture the flag nonsense that can be done the same or better with a QB. You are known for being almost as evil as Berli and are much more creative than that ....thing.....I just fished playing. Kisses, Elvis P.S. New Elvis line to be posted shortly but I hope you have all researched my current sig. P.P.S A couple of months ago Peng purchased me 2 tickets for tomorrow night Springsteen show at the Meadowlands and I am having a hard time getting there. He will be there but not with my tickets. I anyone else can go PLEASE email me ASAP because I am about to eat $150 for tickets I can't use.

Dear Punks, Keep an eye (and an ear) on my sigs. Hate, Elvis

Dear Seanachai, Glad to hear your Mom has been been doing well. Me own Mum went through a bout last year (colon) and has been right as rain ever since. Medical science has grown in leaps and bounds in our lifetime. Quite frankly I am counting on it growing even more with all the smokin and drinkin I do. Love, Elvis

Dear Persephone, Stop crooking my gig. Love, Elvis

Wankers.

Dear Everyonewhodoesntcare, Ms. Sedai is correct. The battle is the classic one VL in the middle first one to it gets to defend it. She has no shot at it as were are in turn 31 of a 30+ game and she ain't even close. After my draw with Nobo in his gamily purchased units battle we have begun anew. He was so frightened by the first few turns he has scampered off to meet up with Mace and will be gone for another 2 weeks. That should be enough time to get his nerve back up. Hiram, you ask? I forget. I'm probably beating him. Peng is about to be shocked when he loses our current big of nastiness. Huge thing in the snow with me trying to move lots of slow moving vehicles and exhausted troops to within eyesight of him so that I might kill him. Love, Elvis

Dear Ms. Sedai, I am in receipt of your files and will attempt to convert and send back this evening. Love, Elvis

Dear Mr. and Ms. Sedai, I am not inclined at this time to dig up the last file you sent and hope that it is a plot file so that I can convert it for you. You are both old enough to convert the last file I sent you. It was sent a month and half ago and I have heard not a peep. Convert the files yourseleves if you have plot files and if you don't feel like it then piss off. Love, Elvis

Dear Noba, Why don't you show some hairy ones and if you insist on a QB let the computer purchase your units. If you don't then you can count on me doing the same type of gamey purchase that you failed to use with sucess in or last battle. Love, Elvis (head full of tequila and beer.....not a bad buz though)

Dear Loark, Are you still alive? If so please send the link to the cesspool site as I don't have it anymore. Love, Elvis

Dear Noba, Thank you for reinforcing my points. Your, Sir, are a gentleman. Don't play in snow, dark, rain, mud or any bad weather, huh? I will contact Charles and ask him to leave these things out of all future CM variations since from what you say no one fights battles in them. The conditions for our game were decided by random selection not by me. The only thing I chose was heavy damage (I wanted to see what it looked like) and this benefited no one but the attacker (you) by providing you with more cover. You have requested a rematch and I shall grant it. This time you may decide all the terms. I care not. Bright sunny dry day with you having all elephants and me started with nothing but broken conscript attacking Russians...sure. Whatever you want. I once said a similar thing and faced Mech. Vet. Germans with big nasty boom boom tanky thingies and all I had was conscript Polish infantry and I dispatched my opponant handily. Are you are not half the player she was. Love, Elvis

Dear Nobo, Real men don't play QBs. They play premade scenarios that are hopefully well balanced and if not they play the cards they are dealt. Real men don't play QBs. If they do they purchase something besides an all Panther and StuG battleforce. You were lucky to pull off a draw with the nonsense you purchased. I held 4 out of 5 VLs and you weren't even close to one aside from the one you took. It is still a mystery to me how such an weak uninspired attack was able to yeild a draw...and a 50-50 draw at that. Expand your mind a little, son. Get past the newbie school of thinking when it comes to purchasing units. Use your imagination...you will find it to be more rewarding then that dreck you tried to pawn off on me. I've been thinking lately about how this game can be out for as long as it has and our game was only the 2nd QB I've ever played with it. I then decided that I didn't care why and you lot probably care even less. Most likey it is because they have grown uninteresting. If you want to see a fun filled no holds bared premade scenario keep your eyes open for Andreas new one called "Road to Koltov" and you'll see what I am talking about. It should be available for download soon. Love, Elvis P.S. Hey Malakovski!!! Send a fookin file.

Dear Nobo, I don't know who you paid off or how you got a hold of the source code or what kind of deal you made with the devil. Your gamey purchase of many StuGs and Panthers in out small game has yeilded you a draw. A dead even 50-50 draw. I am still at a lose to figure how it worked out that way. I control 4 out of 5 VLs. Not just barely control but fully control. He controls acres of mud. Love, Elvis

Michael, There was a game I had on my Commodore 64 that used map 3 from SL/ASL and had the cardboard counters. You typed in your moves and it gave a text display of the enemies movements and fire outcomes. Mildly satisfing when Peng wasn't available for actual ASL play. Elvis

Dear Nobo, You are correct. It is of course not the best use of Russian armor to them in one at a time. The problem is I only had 2 (both of which are gone). These are no match for your gamily purchased many Panthers and StuGs. It's time for you to stop cheating and surrender. Love, Elvis

Dear Hiram, Good news for you my friend. Contact Noba and Malakovski for a game. These guys make you look like Fionn. Complete lack of tactical prowess and finesse. You're welcome, Elvis

Dear Emma, Please stop using those dreadful smilies. Love, Elvis

Wankers.

Dear Matt, You are correct about the HQ thing. I would never have noticed it if I hadn't played an evil nasty mean scenario where the other side seemed to have 50 planes. Before that it would not have occured to me. Love, Elvis
