Never! Everyone knows cats are for kicking and shooting puppies is too easy (especially when your backyard is full of more difficult targets like rabbits,moles,squirrels,birds,hawks,small children and the occassional hippie). You torment puppies to grow up to be mean dogs (that attack hippies!). (Please insert the worlds biggest sacasm smiley here so some moron doesn't have PETA issue a fatwa on me).

Too late, Steve. They're coming for you!

Man, I hope that's not a leather whip she has in her hand...of course, that might suggest that there's some sort of duplicity or nonsensical claptrap in the PeTA message. I certainly wouldn't want to impugn their sensibilities with such a suggestion.

Andre, when I lived in Rochester several years ago, some Peta freaks broke into a mink farm and "freed" several thousand of the poor, mistreated critters. They were able to recover about 10% of them, around 15% starved to death when no one brought food to them, and the other 75% were squashed by cars on the roads.

I agree, I still have it too. You could try Second Chance games in Liverpool.

Noble Knight Games over here has a huge selection (some of them my old ones

). There are numerous used game sites out there.

But of course, you have bradfordkay offering a possible get which I would jump on in a heartbeat if I were you, Aces.

I'm thinking that two guys with Skype and bluetooth web cams could probably play FTF over the internet. Each would need a copy of course, but I think it would work just fine.

Can't say how lucky I am to still have a gaming group to play regularely with

BTW, pics as proof. Can be at least a little proud of my collection.

BTW2; Did I mention that I'm a board game geek ... ?

Wow nice collection man I have just gotten back into Board gaming. I wish I had more time but unfortunately life keeps getting in the way. I've played alot of Paths of Glory the last couple months. I ordered Twilight Struggle which is coming out in a reprint soon. I wish there was a good Vietnam game I could get my hands on but they all seem to be out of print the good one's that is.

these pictures bring back memories...i think my first AH experience was D-Day...Anzio, Third Reich, War in Russia, War and Peace and Squad Leader quickly followed...had some fun high school friday nights with Gladiator, Titans, Circus Maximus(?) and especially Dune...

When I was in grade school, we had an older brother of a friend get kicked off the route bus for the year, and wore a disguise pretty close to this, and the driver didn't know at all and he rode the whole year. Good times!

I grow weary of all this talk of **** abuse on this THREAD. Gentlemen, let's please remember that pussies are our friends. This is a family forum. Let's have no more idle anti-**** chit chat, now shall we?
