  1. I'm not sure. But the Raki I had while in Yugo was stronger, it was strong enough that i put a litre's worth into a plastic watter bottle and then wrapped the waterbottle thick with gun tape to pad it for return to Canada to show off to friends. Three weeks later, I took the bottle out of storage and went to open it, the Raki ( think local moonshine gone OJ crazy) had disolved all the plastic from the walls, it was only the gun tape holding it in. That is what we used to have straight. There were no bleeding ulcers in my company, only gaping holes in soldiers stomachs.
  2. Sergei; I don't think the Canadians would have had any appreciable effect on the outcome in 41 -42. After years ( 15 or so) of neglect ( a whole lot like today) Our forces were really only getting trained up in England. What was onhand on the continent, that we could have sent to Russia would have been but a rock in the flood against the Wermacht, and prolly would have been crushed rather quickly trying to slow up the Germans while Uncle Jo could have saved himself some good Party members for a week later. And so far as Candians running on Rye, I am sure there is a conversion kit out there that they could have used to convert anyone going to Russia to run on whatever is available on the ground, I know that when I was in Yugo, we were even drinking the Raki. Canadians are the ultimate in environmentally friendly units, we can run on whatever you give us, so long as it is at least 200 proof. Also Sergei, so far a supporting the war; It was a good war on paper, til Haliburton got ahold of it. Think about it. getting rid of Saddam Hussien, who is a runner up, in the " killed the highest number of his/ her own countryfolk". He was even more dangerous to Iraqis than the Iranian Army, or air force, or even the Iranian Navy. He needed to be removed, but that is only by a North American Perspective, the only mass murderers we tolerate on this side of the pond have to be military Commanders, like Montcalm, or Lee, or Haig. I know on your side of the pond, a couple of pits with thousands of human bodies can be found on almost every intersection.. but we're a little naive around here [ June 28, 2004, 01:25 PM: Message edited by: ErrantRecce1 ]
  3. I dunno, I thought that this thread was a great Monday treat. It's good to know that everyone is running a little slow, just like me. Shall I break out the forks with corks for us all, now or later?

  5. I did, but it seems i am having some trouble with my outgoing mail. 'Hassling my ISP to get it corrected. I apologize, i will clear this up and send the turn soonest.
  6. Sorry about that. I sent it the day before yesterday, I will send again tonight, when I get home from work.
  7. Hey Hey Wermie, I'm from Canada ( read socialism north) We Peaceloving, beerguzzling types from up here love three things : socialized health care, watching Toronto Maple Leafs Lose, and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition.. We know about as much about capitalism as you- - just what we watch on american imported TV... like ER and Friends. That being said, Paris Hilton is truly Capitalism embodied, and I wouldn't mind greasing her spindles, so I am with you *UC* Capitalism!! [ April 27, 2004, 10:48 AM: Message edited by: ErrantRecce1 ]
  8. I am out the door to work, I'll send you my first move in about 8 hours, when i get home.
  9. 525 This is going to be some kinda fun, just wait til I get to start sending the infantry 'over the top'!!
  10. 13808562 for ICQ for me. mail is in my info.
  11. Bidding has started at 100, 1 : 8 for the Axis by Wermie. I countered at 400 1: 8 for the Axis, knowing the power and finesse and not to mention good looks.. I am sure I will run the bidding higher, before I gain the side I want. Things are starting well for the North American coalition, well indeed.
  12. I dunno.. I am never comfortable when I am in a room with darts, and booze. WAY too many 'mishaps'. At least in my expereince. That is the pure joy of Curling, the rocks are 30 pounds, you're not going to accidentally lodge one of those in someone's ear, unless you really try. And it is entirely acceptable to finish you're beer to fortify yourself against your next throw, or sweep as the case may be. And the rules are astoundingly simple for curling too, no tic tax toeing like darts.. " who ever is closest to the centre gets the point. " end of story. Curling as my vote as the sport of champions.
  13. Curling is a great game. It's what you do, before you can play hockey, after you're too old to play hockey, wehen you're too drunk to be playing hockey, when you've forgotten your Equipment, so you can't play hockey or when you're waiting for your new dentures to settle in.. Frozen wastes he says.. please. You're just jealous. I think that the Scot's developed Curling as the ultimate drinking sport... unlike hockey, baseball or rugby, there is no rushing about about. There is next to no contact, aside from grabbing a new beer. There is no need for fine motor skills, the rocks all weigh 30 pounds and you have to push it 50 feet. and when and if you get bored with watching the game, that's always an excuse to start drinking and chatting up whoever/ whatever's near you.. lol. So in summation, curling might just be the best thing that was ever created. After beer and women. [ April 26, 2004, 03:30 PM: Message edited by: ErrantRecce1 ]
  14. Wermacht... you poor silly leiderhosen wearing git. Once upon a time, Canada accepted the invitation to the dance Germany was holding in France, years before the US could be found mind you. And when we arrived, we brought all our toys, our boys and the beer, and stayed til well after the party was over. When we left, we left the host, Germany, in a shambles, in much much worse shape than we found her. Do you really think that it will be any different this time? Everyime they've let the Canucks loose, we've always over-performed. I pray I can live up to our reputation. I'll check my mail when i get home and we can get right into it. Also, are the AAR's compulsory? I think that we will have a good go. Where could I, should I post it? Thanks in advance [ April 26, 2004, 01:22 PM: Message edited by: ErrantRecce1 ]

  17. I liked Logan's Run.. I read the book, the movie looked a whole lot more farfetched then I imagined from the book. Soyent green was a really good movie, lots of good ideas.. screw population control at the south end... get'em at the north end.. think of the Social Security savings.. lol.. And Soyent Green came out in 1973, I was too born.. I was a whopping 4 months then. Good ideas never go out of style.. :eek: [ February 27, 2004, 02:53 PM: Message edited by: ErrantRecce1 ]

  21. :confused: Why do you say that John? Are you saying i am thick? Are you saying I am a couple watts short of an incandescent light bulb?? Are you calling me a few cows short of a herd? Why don't you just come and call me down!!! I'm not so dense as to not know when I am not wanted somewhere ( although it does seem to happen to me more than to anyone else... can't really see why though).. I don't have to take these snide depreciations about my character.. I was once a star you know, I'm better than being reduced to being second clown out of the clown car at some roadside carnival!!!!
