Status: offline 		Sprior and Cap Mandrake have decided to switch sides-to the dark side. Kris and I will endeavor to give them a proper thrashing. Neither Kris or I have played in a 2 x 2 before so the sharing of duties, supplies, ships etc should be entertaining. Kris will be in control of the Pacific up to China, the Philippines, DEI and Australia. I get the rest. We haven't discussed New Zealand yet but not to worry Kiwis, we wont forget you.

Sprior and Cap, if you are reading this, please leave; super sensitive information is forthcoming.

Due to this being a combined command, our GHQ (Supreme Headquarters In Transit or ****) is at the moment rather mobile. Communications thus could be spotty (you can imagine why). The following is an example of a recent discussion of sharing assets:

Bill: Can I have Lexington?
Kris: No.
Bill: Can I have Enterprise?
Kris: No.
Bill: What can I have?
Kris: Long Island.
Bill: Isn't that a tea?

Fortunately, I'll have a laptop available in case hostilities are underway. However, nothing can stop the forces of Calipari.

Yes! That's the ticket to success. Constant whimpering will boost post counts, surpassing the Admiral and Honorable Captain, thereby destroying their morale and willingness to engage in aggressive behaviors. So therefore, the war is all but won.

On the count of three, all begin whimpering.

It was a prelude whimpering masquerading as a serious post. Any decent AFB whines for at least the first 12 months. Where is the turn? Is it so difficult to bomb Pearl Harbor? It was done once, why not again? We are not re-inventing the AAR here. Hit E and send the turn. Perhaps I will have to go on their AAR and insult them. No, cant do that, their hit count will go up.

If nothing else, post count is going up.  The doc & company will be getting an itch

Long Island Ice, a much better choice then beer.

Nuclear Long Island Ice Tea. Add a little Uzo, a certain blue liqueur, and that sucker glows under black light. Ah, my days as a bartender Heck, even under normal light it was purple.

Status: offline 		An article in the science section of a prominent east coast paper recently discussed the discovery of ancient cave drawings. It appears a discussion took place in a cave a long time ago regarding agriculture; specifically the mandrake root and shrubs. What interests scientists was that it seems that ale is also mentioned. Scientists are confused by a reference to turn 1 and something called AE. Perhaps a local god of the time?

Post count plus 1.  Must keep the doc & company in a lather.  If he is getting a new laptop, it's gonna be an age before hostilities begin.  You may have a fleet of Essex's (is that a word?!?   ) before they bomb Dutch Harbor.

Status: offline 		A quiet game of whist is taking place at the O Club in Delhi Cantonment. It is 2330 December 7, 1941

Three (3) spades states General Wavell ( Field Marshal Archibald Percival Wavell, 1st Earl Wavell, GCB, GCSI, GCIE, CMG, MC, and PC if you must know these things). Just then an excited young orderly dashes in interrupting the game.

Sir, a message has been received and the Japs are attacking an American base in Hawaii, I just heard it on the wireless!

General Wavell turns to the junior officer to his left and says, "your bid please". And then turns to the orderly. Please send a wireless to **** Percy in Singers. Tell him the Japs are on the prowl and to ensure his cannons are ready. Use the word cannon, I dont want him to confuse that with guns. They should get a good work out he mutters to himself as he sips his gin and tonic. Lets take this rubber he exclaims to his partner.

Meanwhile, on the trail from Mardan to Saidu Sharif in the Northwest Frontier, young Harry Flashman III sleeps fitfully.
