Several years ago it was around midnight, I came around the corner walking back to my office. A fox and I were about 6 feet from each other. I turned around and went the other way. I didn't want the rabies shots.

Oh man. I've got some tales of rabid foxes that would make your hair curl. Course, I'VE had the shots...

So who has finished their Christmas shopping?

Me. I had it done weeks ago. Well, days. We gave everyone a new grandson/nephew/cousin

Dude. That is going to be the most expensive gift you could ever imagine...

I'll be back there by then , doing my share to bring down the gator population. Gator is very tasty!
It tastes BETTER than chicken!

Sounds tasty, I will have to try it sometime.

I have had it several times and liked it ok. It is a bit like crayfish, like chicken in the sense it is a bit bland or mild on its own so it readily takes on the flavor of whatever spices it is cooked in. I have had it most often fried, but also grilled ( it gets rubbery fast ) and pan seared, all ok.

Deep fried is always the way to go. Even cabbage taste better deep fried! And don't get me started on okra! But deep fried, it's almost palitable!

I can't take okra cooked any way. Call me a yankee....................

OK.

YANKEE!

Hey stuman,

Is your BBQ, the tomato-based or the vinegar-based BBQ favored by your North Carolina bretheren?

It is more tomato-based around here. Lot's of variation of course. Both wet and dry types. The sauce types also vary, but run to a dark, spicy with some sweetness. All over the scale in terms of heat.

Ouch. I did run into a fox in our parking lot one night ( office backed up to a park ). Looked up as I was sleepwalking to my car late one night. Damn thing stood his ground just staring at me. I stopped, he eventually sauntered away.

I have survived the snow chaos/panic and I don't think it was really that bad I've seen worse.

It's a Monday morning, 0645, I'm on vacation, and I'm awake. I'll give you three guesses where I'm heading.

Looks like my valiant defence of the DEI against the AI hordes has failed already�

� Just lost Repulse in a surface battle with PoW and the rest of my RN fleet smacked about a bit.� In return they sank a single DD and damaged a couple more and two BBs.� Not really the result I wanted....

EDIT: Plus, it looks like Andy has somehow managed to factor in secret weapons. My mouse hand seems to be covered in a milky vomit like substance launched from a small child

Had that years ago Mate, didn't know a small child could carry so much ammo.

Yeah, it's those fanboys at work again! Never mind the fact that I've had some good results against transport TFs, this one combat proves that the game is unplayable!

I guess it's either bugged or the devs got it wrong. I'm waiting for the next patch and db update...
