Ernie is so mad he's frothing like he ate a whole box of Alka Seltzers and drank 10 gallons of Vichy water..... I am tempted to go out and get bit by a snake so that I can go on medical leave and duck this assignment.... I will say this though, from the reports, the brown shoes really gave it their all today; they have my respect, and condolences. CN [:D]

Cap Mandrake -> Endoscopic validation of REACT (7/20/2006 12:02:47 AM)
....with the use of repeat endoscopy in a patient suffering from REACT, who rejected our recommendations for a 12-step program, we were able to link specific, anatomical lesions restrospectively with recalled traumatic events. If you will direct your attention to slide 12. Here the endoscope is about 2-3 cm above the LES with the scope oriented so that the anterior aspect of the distal esophagus is seen at the top of the screen. There are a number of lesions in various stages of healing. For example, the lesion labeled "leader bug", the first one to appear in this patient, is now showing good signs of healing. Curiously, as an aside, I should tell you that under Versed sedation, the patient kept saying.."MacArthur..where is MacArthur". <sustained laughter is heard in the room> [image]local://upfiles/7983/A8BFD20375F74CA39D2B0B5774C68A1A.jpg[/image]

If the Japs lose Hiryu.........you could even claim victory........or you could just claim it anyway, what the H*ll...........

scott64 -> RE: It could be worse...oh, wait, yes it could (7/20/2006 8:56:06 AM)
I had the same happen. Me as Japan, I spotted Enterprise and Lexington near Pearl a few days after I attacked. So I headed back. It did not go very well. Yeah the Enterprise and Lexington were sunk but i lost one carrier and the others were badly damaged. Heading home the long way around.

But what if he goes west and craps all over Saratoga now.That leaves you with no CVs until Yorktown turns up.

fabertong -> RE: It could be worse...oh, wait, yes it could (7/20/2006 1:02:31 PM)
A port attack on the west coast......if I were the allies, I'd say "bring it on"..........or, "come and have a go if you think you're hard enough"........or, "what are those red things doing so close to my big green things"...........or, " yes, I said toast with marmalade, now leave me alone, I'm playing a game, oh I mean working, yes working"........or, " just let daddy finish his work and then I'll read with you".................

Well, if you can take out 2 of 6 that won't be too bad. You replace them better and faster.

I like that you've taken to use the game map for describing battles, Mandrake. Excellente...

quote: ORIGINAL: Terminus I like that you've taken to use the game map for describing battles, Mandrake. Excellente... Subchaser's maps without hexes are nice on the eye. Because the Islands are amplified..it is much easier to see what is going on in large sea battles. The jpg conversions suffer, however. I need to find a better color for the Japs [:)] "To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
