A friend at work named his son Nate and all I could think was "Why would anyone name a kid after such a lousy fighter?"

Status: offline 		Those of us in northern climes have a greater appreciation of Spring after enduring harsh winters. Having endured a week that saw 20 inches of snowfall and -13 F temps, the thought hit me: I am looking forward to the arrival of Spring with the same emotion I looked forward to February 1943 when F4U and F6f arrive.

Status: offline 		You're going on a trip, the laptop dies and you're browsing the internet (between turns) for a new one so the game (s) won't be interrupted.  I wonder if I'll notice the long layovers once I find the wifi hotspots in the airports.  A 10+ hour flight, I wonder how many batteries I'll need.
