garbon would look terrible in a beret.  Doesn't have the facial structure for it.

And to think that I offered to share my home.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

He lives in the UK now, so I guess a bowler would be the appropriate headgear for him these days.  But I agree that he'd probably look better in a fedora.

It's starting to get rather sad seeing all of these municipalities offering to whore themselves out to Amazon in the most blatant ways.

I thought that "zug" was the German word for "platoon".
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The word Zug is used in several completely different unrelated meanings actually.

Christ, I cannot wait for it to get cold fast enough.  Unfortunately it postpones their deaths, but it'll force all these fucking asschimps to put their motorcycles away for the season.

I was curious.  Apparently the different meanings of the German word "zug" are related coming from some ancient word meaning to "pull" or "lead".  It's related to the English words "drag", "tug", "duke", and "team".  So Eddie is probably on to something.  Orcish is likely a Indo-European language, and the when the orcs say "zug zug", they are indicating a desire for the player to lead them.
