You got the wrong swordfish. That's the Planes in Flames Swordfish not the Vanilla Swordfish.

PIF and CIF replaced Vanilla, so there.

PiF and all the other expansions are options :contract:
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

All Wallets In Flames expansions are required; so says ADG marketing.

Unless you want to go back to that god-awful 5th Ed "look, it's a generic plane" bullshit.

Just got my voter information with Republican pretty prominently written above my address. My polling location is a church.

They hired a guy at my company who took the title 'Values Czar'. What the F do you have to do to be given the title of 'Czar' at a company?  :huh:

Would Kat use euphemisms around food? I think he means it when he says it.

Deep Purple are playing at Wacken next year. But damn, 150 EUR for three days? Also, attendance is now ca. 100,000, which is a bit cramped for my tastes.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
