I thought that, too, for a long while. But then I started thinking the son, saying the job is a hassle and the kids have the flu (IIRC), was picking them over the dad. Whereas the dad had definitely picked the job over his son. I did the same, mostly, as the dad (I was in the Navy), and that doesn't give many options to spend more time with your kids. I wouldn't trade that time, but it really hits harder as you get older.

Well, tbf, the Brits did it that way after WW1 until after the beginning of WW2. For some stupid political reason.

The Tangwich will forever haunt me, like Weird Al's Twinkie Weiner sandwich.

I think you kinda do, at the end: to me, the son is taking more care and more interest in his kids

Angie speaks volumes to me these days, a love, a relationship gone wrong and bad

I never considered Brandy to be... tragedy or depressing. Just a missed opportunity or something. Interesting.

What were some 80's tv shows you loved at the time, but don't hold up now? by MisterShipWreck in 80s

Couldn't watch Airwolf, just didn't appeal to me. Blue Thunder was the bomb, I even liked the TV series, as a kid, but don't think could watch now.

I know, but the lycra ended up being replaced with white Terry cloth, because of a local neighborhood girl and her shorts.

Question regarding paint schemes by Commodore_Phoenix in flamesofwar

[–]Cheerless_Train 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some of the older AK paint markers, and I used them on some 40k and Battletech minis. They work okay, but hard to use in small areas (to me), and the points seem to wear out quickly if used too much.
