*Waves at Joe to go ahead while gunning the engine* Your post merely confirms your complete lack of decorum and good taste. The only approved decals for usage on your trunk are Nascar decals, Terrorist Hunting Permits, and the very popular (as far as resale value) How's my driving? Call 1-800-Eat ****e. Now apologise to dalem for getting his hopes up over a "lie, distortion, and manipulation of the truth". You know how trusting he is.

Joe, clearly you are an idiot. No mistake. Pretty broad assumption you make here, wouldn't you say. Pfft! As if any car I drive still has bumpers.

So, just like every morning, I'm on my way to the post office to pick up our company's mail when I come to a four way stop. At the same time an older citizen (older than me) pulls up on my right just a bit AFTER I do. Feeling all cheery and happy (it's Thursday and that means tomorrow is Friday) I smile real big and wave for him to go ahead. He looks straight into my eyes, grimaces, then motions for ME to go ahead. I smile at this selfless attitude, then, once again, wave him to go ahead. Now he continues to stare at me with this solemn expression on his face, and once again motions me to go ahead. Shaking my head at his unwillingness to accede to my overwhelming display of kindness, I decide to allow him the pleasure of being the nice guy. So I start to pull out. At the same time, HE starts to pull out. We both hit the brakes and once again stare at each other. With my cheery attitude somewhat subdued, I mouth the words "GO AHEAD" and then wave to him once more. He doesn't move. He sits staring at me as if I had placed the "Medussa" curse upon him. I shrug my shoulders and once again wave him on. The same blank stare. I then decide to give up and once again start across, only to have to halt once again as he starts across again. By this point my good nature has been replaced with the same type of frustration one gets in trying to reason with Joe Shaw. Clearly an impossible task. I look the old guy right in the eye and very carefully proceed into the interesection. This time he does not move. He does wave at me with one finger, his lips clearly muttering the latest AARP slogans, as I pass in front of him. I felt like stopping and telling him: Lissen up you olde fart. I was trying to be nice to you, but you clearly are so hyped up on Geritol that your brain is impaired. So you may kiss my ruddy red cheeks. The sorry bastige, nobody is nicer than me, and if I see that old codger again I will smash into his car with the impact of a freight train. Have a nice day!

Boo Don't be so hard on Old rune. The scenario that Young rune has given us to playtest has been everything that Old rune's were not. By that I mean it is fun, fast paced, accurate as far as TO&E and terrain, and is balanced fairly. It would appear that he has seen the handwriting on the wall. Sad really, trying to hang on when there is new blood ready to take over.

Don't you mean Down the Mississippi To the Gulf of Mexico? Sheeesh Johnny Horton wannabe.

Anybody know what a 10T error is? I got this wierd message last night on my computer after receiving a turn from Boo Sender ID10T error.

Speaking of which, send a turn Chuckles so we can finish Berli's little abortion. </font>

There, there now Lil' Boo. Your knuckes are gonna get all bloody. You know it used to be that the Cess Pool was the most horrendous, terrifying place to go on this board. Now people come here to take a break from the GF. It's gotten worse since Berli's vacation. All the little SSN's come barging in, Seanachai throws flowers and garlands at them proclaiming them the best SSN ever, etc. Now that Berli is back, then perhaps your vision of the Cess Pool will once again surface. I can feel the EVIL. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I would caution you, young one. To utilize knowledge gained from the Devil is similar to using Sauron's One Ring. The corruption and slide into the pits of despair and self-degradation begins the first time you use it. PS-Show V42below how to do it as well.

So is that Witless or Crock? I'll bet you guys are twins!!!

Quit quoting my wife!!!! :mad:

Unconventional Softball bat??? Well now, that just seems so... . . . . . . . . . . . . . BELIEVABLE!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! :mad: :mad:

Post #1A Way Cool. Berli's back to posting in the MBT. Finally something to balance the Gnome. Post #1B Uh oh, somebody just pulled a fast one on Berli and turned his innocent post into the new Peng Thread! I'll be back later to sort this one out. Seanachai!!! What do you think? (in less than a 1,000 words, please)

Nice try Mr High & Mighty. My guess is you double posted and it took 39 hours for you to figure it out. Oh, by the way is it Boo Radley or is it Boo RAdley?

I will need for you to resend the last turn if you please.

I never imagined rleete being that tall, but otherwise it matches perfectly the image he projects.

SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECHHH!!!!! <BIG><BIG>THUMP!!!!</BIG></BIG> Too much whistling, not enough paying attention to the WALK/DON'T WALK sign. Sad really. At least he had a smile on his face.

20-30 turns, Small, mainly infantry to start. Try Jeff Weatherspoons "Tutorial". It's fun and gives good experience using indirect fire, direct fire & movement, and attacking fortified positions. Another small scenario to get your feet wet is "A walk in the Sun" There is also an "Opponents Wanted" Forum on this board, if you're in a hurry.

What's all this nattering nonsense about Boo Radley hacking a computer? Who but a complete idiot could make such... oh..., Joe, how could you make such a charge against one so inept as Radley? If anyone is suspect around these parts it's First Shot Kill Shaw!!! Don't try and deny it. It's in the record and I quote: Joe Shaw is a gamey, no-turn sending, first shot killing, game hacking, blackguard of the highest order There you have it, from the Official Records. Now then, in regards the one good thought that has bubbled it's way up out of the goo that was once your brain, I hereby second your proposal that the heathen scoundrel (Boo Radley for you newcomers) be ordered and ordained to change his dear wife's member name to Lady Rose.

Sheesh, get a flea and tick collar or some spray.

Hey Joe Wanna see the Stanley Cup?

Clearly you have never played a PBEM with Joe! Actually it's more like the sound you transmission makes when you try to shift gears without using the clutch.

Another time, another place. We need a Jolly sing song. Speedy can you help us out here? [ June 09, 2004, 09:10 AM: Message edited by: Jim Boggs ]

Actually Admiral Nimitz did advocate bypassing the Philippines in favor of landings on Formosa. At a high level meeting in Hawaii, (attended by Roosevelt, MacArthur, and Nimitz), to decide this very issue, accounts that I have read indicate that Roosevelt was inclined towards supporting the Formosa operation, but MacArthur's eloquence changed his mind. I am sure that Jersey John will correct any mistakes in my recollection.
