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

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Who was the youngest British general of World War I?

Bonus points if you know what happened to him.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Roland Bradford, killed in late 1917 at the age of 25. Unfortunately, due to my appalling memory and not wishing this thread to die, I've just had to look that up in Peter Hart's book on the battle of the Somme.  :Embarrass: :Embarrass: :Embarrass: :Embarrass: :Embarrass: :Embarrass: :Embarrass:

So, open floor.

Avoiding the less than healthy political scene in france?

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.
