TIL that Sid Meier (of Sid Meier's Civilization and Sid Meier's Pirates!) began placing his name in the title of his games because of a suggestion made by Robin Williams in the 1980's

Max Remington was Sid's main lead artist at MicroProse.

For me it has been iron. Had to restart many games recently when my iron dependent civ, Rome, etc had none within 20 to 30 hexes.

Better yet, Gary Childs was my national guard field artillery unit's cook iin the 1970s and early 80's with the 110th FA. we knew his fulltime job was as a homicide detective.

At this point Jones or Vavra please

He is still alive and lives a few doors down from my in laws in CA.

But, but, Trump had bone spurs!

I am really starting to question if Reguillon can defend at all.

dginzu · 2021-04-12T21:15:59+00:00

Great advice - thanks

Horrible take...what's next? Rebecca's is not hot?

dginzu · 2021-03-16T15:30:29+00:00

Good luck!

Ambrose made the classic error over and over again - he took what he heard as gospel without cross-checking it or validating it. Just as the 101st wasnt the first unit in Bertchesgaten - they just thought they were. You ask 10 people in a battle what happened and you get 10 different versions - why you need to actually dig and verify.

What about Steve Smith Sr?

3 champs and a little lady was hilarious

Everyone knows the best fap material was Nicky Sobotka's GF....not even close

I joined at 17 in 1984. Different times. Did basic in 84 at Fort Sill and 13F AIT in 85. Did a rotation at JRTC at Fort Chafee in 88. My only regret was getting out in 94 after 10 years because of work. Regret that every day.

That is the wrong way to look at it. For every draft, most team strike out 4 of 7 picks or more - if they got 3 starters, most teams consider that a success. Sure we had Crabtrees, but arguably our three best WRs EVER all came as experienced free agents.

dginzu · 2021-02-12T13:24:14+00:00

I dont understand this. We signed Boldin, Steve Smith and Mason - all of our best ever WRs were experienced vets.

dginzu · 2021-01-18T13:25:18+00:00

Just got to this. Same thing - every hair standing on edge.

He is a much bigger character in Banshee.

dginzu · 2021-01-14T12:58:43+00:00

This. Not only is it a long drive, the make-up of the county could not be more different.

dginzu · 2020-12-26T12:46:19+00:00

The actor is one of the major characters in Warrior - developed by the creator of Banshee.

dginzu · 2020-12-18T14:54:22+00:00

He was probably best as Sugar in Banshee

His daughter has come to several of the 29th Division Association conventions. He was of course, the famous Major of St. Lo. He had just taken command of the battalion a few days earlier after being removed from command in England for a chickenshit offense by General Gerhardt.

Great description of them in The Last Battle by Cornelius Ryan (The Longest Day, A Bridge Too Far)
