Ayup; thats what I'm referring to. I don't know about CMBO since I don't even have a computer fast enough to run that I was just curious about CMBB and the penetration charts. CMBB might be enough to frag me into this millenium w/regard to a new system Too many combinations? thanks 5m

Subject says it all. If not, will they be made available for download? thanks 5m

God bless you! My old eyes thank you. 5m

I *think* I saw this a few years ago. I can't find it onl any of the sites I've visited. Can anyone point out the url or location of it? thanks 5m

Does anyone remember these things called board wargames? Back when we used to play them, we would be thrilled if we could play a few turns per week. Stop your whining, and learn some patience or stop drinking so much Coke. Take a valium or several. Better yet, why don't you imagine when you could only dream of a game such as this? (and then you can play it as fast as you want to in your mind; although this is really nothing more than mental masturbation). 5m

Quite boring *until* he had to hide in the closet. Reminded me of Stalin's paranoia when getting a haircut (he had a gun pointed at the back of his barber's head). Hey, let's be honest; a lot of us do drink when playing wargames; whether it be social or solo....and flights of fancy aren't that uncommon. 5m

I'm sorry, but Tom Servo is trapped on the Satellite of Love, along with Mike, Crow T Robot, Gypsy and Cambot. Dr. Forrester keeps them up there you see.... 5m

Wrong Maximus. In 1960, Kennedy won the popular vote by 114,673 votes. He received the electoral college votes from 22 states, while Nixon received the electoral college votes from 26 states. The total votes cast that year were about 69,000,000. The three popular vote losers, but electoral college winners were; John Qincy Adams - 1824 Rutherford B Hayes - 1876 Benjamin Harrison - 1888 1960 Kennedy: 34,227,096 Nixon: 34,107,646 5m

The Combat Mission gold demo works flawlessly on DX8 with an ATI Radeon All In Wonder card. Be that as it may, the card is supposedly heavily optimized for DX8. This is with using the 3056 drivers from, August I think? But then, I've never encountered any bugs anyways. 5m

Doug; I just saw the movie last Saturday night after it had been out for 12 years? Cute, but not a great movie 5m

I've been stretching to think of the other foods (bizzare) that I used to eat while gaming, and the only other one I can remember is peanut butter and tuna fish sandwiches with lousiana hot sauce. 5m

I almost forgot; balogna and grape jelly sandwiches. 5m

Pizza pops dipped in honey. Either that or balogna and peanut butter sandwiches. 5m

A lot of the producers of single malts have had glasses specifically designed for them. I'm partial to the glasses that I've obtained from buying Bowmore 12. Its rather fat/bulbous at the bottom, tapering slightly in the middle and then flaring out at the top. It makes it quite easy to hold in one hand while warning the malt to the point where it becomes quite aromatic. When I started, it was over one ice cube; now I prefer it straight or with a dash/drop of mineral water. Andreas is quite right; sometimes a drop of water does wonders (if you do this with Laphroaig you can smell the smoke wafting up). A *very* good site is www.scotchwhisky.com It has tons of information, giving tasting notes, how to get started, the different regions, etc. Myself, I am partial to the Islays (typically very smoky, peaty and phenolic/medecinal), but am starting to discover the subtelties of Highland malts. 5m

Germanboy; on the docket for this weekend; Lagavulin Distiller's Reserve (?) Laphroaig 16 yr old Glenmorangie 10 yr old I'm not sure that the name of the first one is correct; I'll have to see when I get over to my girlfriend's house. I tried some solid if unspectacular Speyburn 10 yr old last night. 5m

No insult here. You're accurate. But then, my opinion doesn't count because I don't have the game. 5m

Is the Pope Polish? Has Atlas shrugged? I am an objectivist, but not of the Randian sort. Why do you ask? 5m

Look in the rear view mirror for this; 3M-TA3 5m

The brief summation is that it is not worth it, in comparison to the 18, 15, and 12 yr old Macallan's. As a matter of fact, I would take standard Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Talisker or even 10 yr old Balvenie. Factor in the price ($289 Cdn), and there really is no contest. Now, the caveat is that it was my 40th birthday over the weekend, and a lot of pale ale, Steinlager and Glenfiddich was also consumed, so my tasting notes are based entirely on a foggy memory. I'm also told that I jumped off the roof of a house into a pool, so take this with a grain of salt. Colour: very dark orange, bordering on a firebrick red. Aroma: initially it reminded me of candied ginger, followed up very quickly by a strong treacally smell. Sherry there? Not surprising since I think that all of the Macallan's is aged in imported sherry oak casks. Taste: well, this was quite a disappointment. I picked up a little bit of vanilla, ginger and sherry, but it faded unbelievably fast. I expect a lot from my scotches; including complexity, depth, and a lingering aftertaste. I got none of that from the 25 yr old. Unfortunately, I can't convince myself that my lack of appreciation is not due to the other liquors that were consumed (this is really a fuzzy point for me after the weekend), and I'll probably be stupid enough to try it again. 5m
