ORIGINAL: Cap Mandrake One time I stayed up late finishing an Uncommon Valor turn (second one of the night) until I finally told myself.."look you idiot, you have to work tomorrow". I was asleep before I could say Finshafen (or however you spell that) My father was there for a time during the war and he's always pronounced it finch-haven, with a sort of soft 'v' quote:
The next day, the mom of one of my patients is in the office and I can see she is supressing a giggle the whole time she is looking at me. I start the checklist...shaving cream on my ear lobe?..negative...dried toilet paper controlling hemorrhage on neck?...no...fly open?...negative. Finally she asks with a giggle...."where is Lunga?" "Did you say Lunga?, I asked incredulously. "Yeah, I called you last night to see what I should do with the fever and you kept saying, "the Japs attacked Lunga" You know you have the bug bad when... I have been known to play obsesively. Sometimes staying up way too late, but at least I've never done anything quite like that. Bill
