Good morning. On my way to our college homecoming golf tourny. Won it last year, so we need to defend our title!

Started it last night. The type print is very small and the maps look like they were printed on thermal printers and then scanned in. Some interesting stuff in there though.

Close to weekend guys.

I've just asked the price for a wonderful airplane, fully operational and with all permissions.

I'm curious how much it costs.

Ah yes. The infamous mid-40s battle of the bulge. Fraid I'm fighting one of my own too, USS Mike. C'est la vie, eh? I'm not giving up my bourbon for it, I'll tell you that...

I'd be fine if I only got up off my lazy ass and ran or rode my bike even semi-regularly.

Edit: But, rum is staying on the menu!

You want to tell me another online community that knows exactly where Finschhafen is without even being told that it's on P/NG?

Sometimes I despair of the knowledge that I've picked up from this darn game...
