Indeed! But the most important question....never mind the grocery store, did you visit the liqor store?

Hmm...let's see. I have half a bottle of a nice Spanish Rioja, most of a bottle of Kahlua...and if things get very rough most of a bottle of Blackhaus that some friends gave me.

That wouldn't last more than a day in the Martian household.

That too.

Made my first Old Fashioned last weekend. Needs some work. I did discover I like rye whiskey just fine.

I think it's time to steer clear of the "Jap ASW" thread. That one is trouble brewing.

Seeing some responses that posted there, I just have to wonder. Why does every answer have to have a snide undertone to it?

Ok then, maybe I should tell you that I also have an upcoming survival training exercise in a couple of weeks.

I suspect I have some blisters coming my way then as well ...

What does that involve?

What? Blisters?

It's a form of injury which results in the subepitheial layers of the dermis being damaged, typically from a repetitive friction-based trauma. The damaged region fills with an initial transudate followed by a serous exudate. The fluid is usually resorbed over time but the inciting subepithelial damage takes some time to repair.

Geez, I thought you guys knew SOME of this stuff...

At the same time? Now that's a weird vice.

My wife and I just got done going to the UPS store. We are sending our daughter (who is at university) a St Valentine's Day care package. The package consists of a box of homemade chocolate chip cookies

Well, I can't get to work this morning. All trains going in that direction have been canceled after somebody got run over by one further up the line. Oh Goodie.

Just to clarify, we don't use it much in planning, more for training & learning the students how to properly employ and use their assets.

Never played 3, but from my recollections of 2, there wasnt too much asset use involved and the combat resolution was more like throwing an 8-sided die.

It has been around for a while and it shows. A little clunky and CR can sometimes be very random, yes. It's still usable for our purposes, though.

Typical... one inconsiderate person ruins the day for many. One good thing about New Zealand; two hundred or more people would have to be run-down by a runaway train, before they'd even think of shutting-down the network in one of our cities.
