mcgivney Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Another three lousy pages to go on my masterpeice on the formation of Iraq and Kuwait. The only thing keeping me going is dreams of CM:BB for Christmas. Well, that, and the recurring fantasy of parking a large tank in the middle of one of my grad classes.

Is Czar or Tsar the correct spelling? "Linguistic arguments in the morning smell like fun" .
