Mid day tithe.

Got an explanation for my insomnia - I had a slight fever to go with my cold when waking up this morning. Staying home to cure myself.

Edited: Tips on any alcohol based cold cures would be graciously reviewed.

Hmm ... doesn't sound too bad.

I don't have any blackcurrant juice at home though. Of course, I *could* exchange that with blackcurrant liqueur, right?

I can't see why not. Maybe you could replace the water with some vodka as well?

Morning tithe. I see "herwin" has found himself a cheerleader...

Pfft....how could you argue with such scintillating logic as 'I think the naval game is pretty good.'? Why it takes a genius...nope...a SUPER genius to come up with such succinct logical construct.

That coyote looks more like a pig. What do you do for a living again?

That's a screen capture from the original film, you philistine.

Now that sounds as a brilliant idea!

That depends. Are you looking to get drunk or to cure a cold?

Agreed. Mike, I see that your state economy is comparable to Sweden.

I've had two amusing sub battles in my game vs the AI lately.

Yesterday one of my S-boats was forced to the surface by some jap DDs. The S-boat popped to the surface right next to the BB Hyuga. One 36cm hit later, the S-boat was history

... and today one of my AMs escorting a TK forced an jap RO-boat to the surface. For some reason, the AM captain never fired on the surfaced sub. The TK captain, however, obviously thought it was a great idea ... and the RO-boat managed to put a penetrating 25mm AA gun hit in the TK, which set fire to the fuel cargo and the TK sank ...

Even though you lost each engagement, I would have been laughing my butt off at seeing both of these.

I did. Amusing to say the least

Edited: Oh, and the AM captain have already been court martialed and exchanged for another. He had an aggression rating of 18, which might explain some things ...
