I finished my Combat Mission AAR.  It's in the Gaming HQ.  I didn't win. :)
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

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.

Surely that can't be real. Why would such a thing be newsworthy in America? And demi-god of extremists? I think they overegg his position in the early 20s.

Nothing can get past Tyr's incisive mind.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

It really depresses me that's he better educated then I am.

Ed has the tree up. Ed no longer has to do any Christmas shit until December. Ed has visible reminder to kids to be good or Santa will fuck them up. Santa is Ed's discipline enforcer for the next three months.

Most importantly, kids happy. Advice from wiccans and Albertans: ignored

Ed's a good dad. :)
Not really.  He's failed to teach his children to act appropriately.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Most popular names for baby girls in the U.S. by year. The 70s were the Decade of Jennifer. :unsure:

Why the sudden change in 1970 to Jennifer?  Can't really recall any rock star famous Jennifer around that time.  Or did they release a new edition of the baby names book around that time?
