Dang, Wolfie!

It can be quite frustrating, but at least you already know it's worth any amount of frustration to get this magnificent game running on your computer again!

Tithe... 

Today's word of the day:

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconioses

A disease caused by the inhalation of fine silicate ash. Nice to know...

Less than 48 hours in the land of sand...  Blighty here I come!  

I'm looking forward to:
My wife
Tea
Proper bacon
Proper sausages
Feeling cold
Rain
Decent television
No sand
The floor being green
Alcohol
People saying please and thankyou
A choice of (non-fried) food
Not having to drink 2 litres of water an hour
Not being in uniform
Needing less than 3 t-shirts a day
Being able to go outside without sunscreen on
Knowing what my money is worth
Not being afraid of dying on public roads
Having a choice of clothes
Clouds
Not having to walk outside when I'm bursting for a p***
Not needing 3 showers a day
Sensible temperatures
Not going near a VC10 for a month
Not having to listen to Karaoke night 'singing'
A decent nights sleep
Being able to drink water from the tap
Good looking women*
Eating when I want to
Not getting up at 0600
Not waking up 5 times a night needing a drink of water
Not coming back here any time soon...

* There may be good looking women out here, but they all seem to be covered up...

To be honest, the alcohol doesn't matter that much as I don't usually drink.  But there's something about this place that makes me want to...

Guys:

Sorry i left without a word, but after an unpleasant incident on the forum, i decided to reevaluate things and decided that i was spending entirely too much time on the forums, to the exclusion of other things in my life that needed attention… the forum is just tooooo enticing, and i find that i spend more and more time rather than doing things that need doing, and if i post at all, i start slipping back into spending more and more time on the forums… so i have been attending to other matters until i catch up on them… i do miss you guys, and several of you have sent me emails and pm’s so i thought i’d try to put the rumors that i died or something to rest…

Anyway, once i am caught up (don’t know how long that will be), i plan to return… i did decide to continue the Threadwar 3x3 since the amount of time i spend on that is manageable (given the pace).




We will all be looking forward to your return. Keep well.

Men Are Just Happier People:

Your last name stays put.
The garage is all yours.
Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. 
You can never be pregnant.
Car mechanics tell you the truth.
The world is your urinal.
You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky.
You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.
One mood all the time.

Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.
You know stuff about tanks and engines. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.
You can open all your own jars.
You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.


Your underwear is $5.00 for a five-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You never have strap problems in public.
You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.
Everything on your face stays its original color.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
You only have to shave your face and neck.

You can play with toys all your life.
One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.
You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife.
You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache.

You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

Morning all, stupid forums seem to log me out every 3 minutes this morning. This is too common by far with this forum.


And of course it quits for a bit, typical. But I'm watching
