It's already been a predictably crazy day with work. Everyone has just 2 things they need me to do before I'm out for almost 2 weeks..... I've got the total list down to 8 more things...

Hey GP, I do software QA for internal applications at the American Board of Pediatrics. We have two big, year long projects that will go live in January and I knew the end of the year would be serious crunch time.

Sounds like good fun

. Well, I was beginning to work my way up the company ladder at TruGreen when my previous job related injury caught up to me. Such is life. Hope you enjoyed the hockey game 🏒....GP

OOOOH! Cap Mandrake has had some things to say about pediatric software at this hospital or clinic! You two should PM each other - after your move dust has settled of course!

If you cook the bird between 425 to 450 F or 218 to 232 C for an hour then cover it in foil and turn the heat down to 350 F or 176 C to finish cooking, the skin will be nice and crispy. If you cook it breast side down on a rack, the juices will flow into the breast and that will tend to make it juicer. Don't stuff the bird, instead have dressing catching some of the pan drippings so reduce the fat for the dressing. You can always add butter to the dressing later. If you need pan drippings for gravy, put a small pan right under the bird to catch some then make the gravy while the bird is "resting" after its ordeal in the oven . . .

Good morning. It appears to be a nice day for a pleasant hike. After all, hikes are always pleasant, are they not?

Freaking Good Afternoon!

Just starting up the 1941 campaign and it's totally freaking mind blowing! What an awesome game!

Still have only read up to chapter 6.3.3.3.2.2 and only have watched two video's but man this is an awesome game!!!

I still have to wire up the helpers (trackers, etc...)

I would suggest trying the Coral Sea scenario from both sides and then the Guadalcanal scenario from both sides before you try a campaign game.

Good suggestions RangerJoe but I just could not help myself as I was trying to find the best map mods for me (spent four hours downloading a bunch of mods and then making them work for GME, so easy to swap things in and out with that mod swapper).

Once I find the map I like, I'll go back to Coral Sea, then Guad and then 1000 mile war. Going to take a while...lol

What a priceless gem this game is!

Cap and I have chatted a bit. His software complaints are the data systems in place at the practice where he works. My employer provides standards and certification in his knowledge of the Pediatrics specialty.

He did share some horror stories of his oral examination to earn his certification many years ago.
