The big city is much the same

That, and I tend to overstay my welcome on forums by picking philosophical fights with just about everyone around. Sometimes it is indeed better to be seen and not heard. So I'll just creep back into my little corner for a while and get drunk while playing Panzer Corps.

And... garden season is right around the corner as well, so my time outside getting vitamin D while digging around in the dirt shall commence soon. My gardening hobby isn't so much a hobby as it is a crusade against all the laws of nature that seek to impede my desire to grow tomatoes.

So no, I won't be moving to Albania to become a goat herder... just out to my backyard to herd grasshoppers and aphids.

Well, that would be a fate *worse than* death, not death itself, no?

Status: offline 		I've been about to begin threads about some historical event or war but then I have censored myself. I feel that much of what has happened in our history could be perceived negatively by at least people from one nation or another. And I also feel that many historical discussions could easily be turned into a political discussion.

So I censor myself and do not post it.

And that might be a good thing.

And this thread gives me opportunity to tell you all just how cowardly I am.

With that said I applaud that you all stay nice in the great Civil War 150th thread.

RIP my beloved PC, you are allready sorely missed, and ofc this also means no PBEM games for me untill a replacement can be afforded.
Oh, and the no PBEM game is a real PITA I can assure you all...
