Good. Busy. I'm looking for a job as well. I don't frequent the thread as I used to unfortunately.

Well, in that case it's great to see you around.

Shoot me a PM with some idea of what you're looking for and I'll keep my eyes peeled for you. Also, I'm on LinkeIn, so feel free to link up with me.

Good grief!  It seems that my hometown has been shortlisted as a potential twin-town with Disney   

There's a joke there somewhere, I just know there is.

Whenever I read a Lee quote in a book, I hear Shelby Foote's voice. Kind of like reading Chris's posts with a Stewie voice.

Got every book Shelby ever wrote. And watched his old TV programs and listened to that rich, thick, Mississippi accent. Oh, yeah, this is a believeable man.

test message from 20 yo son: dad, call me, we need to talk.


Me: Hi, what's up
Him: We need to talk
Me: Are you in trouble? Is everything okay? What's up?
Him: We just need to talk
Me: Ok, talk
Him: Well, er, you know <insert 19yo gf name here>?
Me: Yes
Him: Well, she's pregnant
Me: You nugget

etc, etc

I'm going to be someone's grandad at 49. What a strange feeling. I never gave my kids permisson to breed.


Mazel tov!

Now, on the level, Simon. When you had "The Talk" all those years ago....do you think he was paying attention?

That's irrelevant. Grandpa regulations demand that you buy them.


You also need stories about:

"all this were fields as far as t' eye could see when I were a lad"
"the war"



Oh, I got them. Are stories about ladyboys in Singapore acceptable?


Dixie, what was it you said about the navy and chaps not too long ago?

I would have gone with "branch" but what the heck, might as well kick him while you can.

I would loooove to see Yoda get cross examined.

Don't think that would work out too well for the examiner.

Prosecutor: "So, Mr. Yoda, where were you on the night of..." (Wham!) Levitated chair send prosecutor sprawling
Mr. Yoda: "Impertinent your questions are..."
Prosecutor: (muttered) "No...ugh...further questions your honor."

Morning guys.

Hi Per, frozing in sweden ??

Yes. This morning we had freezing temperature (-5C) for the first time this winter



It's in the 80's here today.


Is that a reference to the temperature or the population?

Which one was that?


Luftwaffe - Creating the Operational Air War 1918-40, by James Corum.

Purported to destroy a slew of the myths about the inter- and early-war Luftwaffe, it's poorly argued and written. Call me old-fashioned, but if you want to debunk "conventional wisdom", you have to present evidence to the contrary. The author fails to do so.

He's an obvious Luftwaffe fanboy, and it shows.


One gets out of a book what one expects. I found it well argued, objective and thought provoking. Aspects of his arguments show up in other texts, including Bergstrom and Shores.






I agree with Woody.

He does come across as a Luftwaffe fanboy (which I am not), I will give you that. But his evidence and conclusions are none the worse for it.
