I never had a massage. If I did, it would have to be a woman. I couldn't let a guy touch me.

No dogs here. The yard is only half an acre, but the crazy we bought the house from sold lilys and irises for a living. He had about a dozen huge flower beds loaded with the stupid things. We've been slowly removing the beds over the years but couldn't keep up with the remaining ones. We've just about finished clearing out the last (and biggest) one we're going to remove. In the middle of it is a pond (about 5' x 10') that is overgrown. That's the last thing to do. It means more grass to cut, but that's much easier than weeding flower beds all the time.

Our yard is about a half acre with about 20 percent being woods/swamp

Good to see you again, Mike. Ya know, maybe it's just us, but our irises do not let a weed poke its stinking nose out of the ground they pack it in so well.

That's very kind but the reality is I'm simply posting the Wikipedia entry for the current page year. It seems to work best when I post under Windows as the fast reply uses the smart editor and keeps the links intact.

You can always go to the wikipedia and search the year number. Indeed they have a pretty cool little link box in the upper right where you can 'browse' a century. It's quite fascinating.

I find them very interesting, and very addictive.

I bring co-prosperity, not evil to my subjects.

There are some others yet to be subjugated. Might be about time to yank you out of Sir Robin mode....

Well the AE manual was certainly interesting read. Lots of fascinating changes to production and ship repair! Those two alone will make for a vastly different game. I must admit I'm quite looking forward to not seeing massive fleets of Liberators and B17s over my bases by mid 42.

The pilot pool changes are going to be fun to work out as well. Seems to be an enhanced version of the system Victory Games Pacific War used back in the day. That design really modeled the serious problems that huge losses in naval pilots caused the Japanese. I also like the look of the skill set demarcations.

It's going to be a much tougher road for the Japanese in AE...as it should be. Especially curious to see what the transport capacity of the Japs will be with all the new rules there. Don't believe the infamous 'Jap blitz' of stock is going to be happening.

Morning everyone. I'm up at 0430 to take my daughter to the fair to show her horse. This is my morning wake up all week.

So much for a week off.....

Downloaded it. I might give it a read on holiday next week, or I could just do what real men do and not bother with the manual

Downloaded, but only glanced at it so far. I skimmed the "preview" sections released a couple of weeks ago.
