    Anyway, I checked the Department of Veterans Affairs website and they give a nice history of the day (including a comment on how many people confuse Memorial Day and Veterans Day) as well as a statement to the effect of: "Veterans Day is for all who have served, in war or peacetime. In fact, it is largely intended to show appreciation to living veterans for their service to the country."

    The irony is that it's original definition as "Armistice Day" intended it to be a day to celebrate world peace. I think most U.S. citizens see it more as a day to glorify our military history.

    Oh well.....

    When the last war is fought we will able to celebrate peace. Until then we can only send our thanks and honor those who have sacrificed in attempt to make peace in our time..whatever time that may be.

    Thank you , gentlemen.

  2. I know my life has sunk to a new low when the "Hyperdrox" reference raises a chuckle. It means I have been reading more than playing. Oh, I know why. Some skulking lackwit (Berli) has challenged a bunch of folks to PBEM's (Berli) and can't find the time to keep his hand off his (censored) long enough to send me a feckin turn. I have been working on an ode to aforementioned slacker.

    An Ode to Berli

    There once was a man named Berli

    Whose character was a bit squirrelly

    Setup was sent

    Then I got bent

    And naught heard again from that little girly.

    Thank you, back to drinking now.

  3. KUMA?!?!? Is this the Kuma that buggered off from the "Two Steps of Death" Tourney? If so, you have about a months worth of turns to get to me you slacken' bastiche. If not, weeelll...my bad.

    Other notes:

    1) Seanachi , don't you have an advice column to attend to? I noticed it has slipped to page 2. Are all gnomes this daft or are you especially dimwitted?

    2) Isn't there all ready a feckin' Peng Challenge Thread? If so why do people keep inviting them out of the Cesspool. Normally they just languish in their own filth, quite happy with themselves. Is that not enough? Of course not. So some twit has to sound off about Peng and here they come. Every last one of 'em. The whole mess of lackwits, reprobates and perverts. :rolleyes:

    Grandma used to tell me not to poke sleeping rattlers...and that advice still makes since today. Leave 'em be, just leave 'em be.

    It is said, in my profession, that it takes a lot of beer to make good wine. If you should feel the need to partake of a wine spritzer, or any wine for that matter, please do. Your continued support guarantees my job. :D

  5. Try the "Opponent Finder", either PBEM or TCP/IP. I tend to find myself waiting around for TCP/IP opponents though.

    And, there is always the "Peng Challenge" if you like to be berated, kicked, soaked with petrol and lit on fire. To each his own.

    (Editted because I now don't see a feckin' Opponent Finder thread...is that gone?)

  6. Now that the AI cheating has been issue has been laid to rest we can get onto the REAL issue: Does MadMatt cheat? Let's look the evidence.

    1) MadMatt gets all the BFC games first (CMBB and CMBO included). How equitable is that?

    2) MadMatt gets all the patches first.

    3) MadMatt gets to play CMBO and CMBB all day and his boss doesn't yell at him, calling him a lazy-good-fer-nutin'...er, drifting off-topic.

    4) MadMatt is involved with the forum community to point where he gets mods before the rest of us even know they exist. Sure he says he is posting them on a website for all of us to have access to but he gets them first...AGAIN NOT FAIR!

    So I think it is obvious that MAdMatt cheats. If I have missed anything feel free to add.

    BFC, please fix or sumfink!

  7. Dear Seanachi/ Aunt Agony ,

    I was recently caught up in a mass-proposition by one Berli . I accepted his offer of CMBB...and "maybe more". After one lackluster file sent, I haven't heard from him since? No calls, letters, emails, or even a brick through my front window. Should I continue to wait patiently for him to respond, or should I join a "clan" (or was it a clam?) to satisfy all my CMBB needs? Or what about those nice "Peng" lads and lasses? I hear so many nice things about them.

    My only solace has been to read the ongoing "Does the AI cheat" thread and I am finding it a bit lacking. I really need your expert advice.

    Sincerly,

    Lost on the Russian Steppes
