and with only 1 hp!!! Pretty good for an old man! You are standing outside Bowring Way Police Dept, a derelict grey-stone building surrounded by burnt-out cars. The building's doors have been left wide open. Also here are Eughbert-r- (60) and Groove Franklin+r+ (50). Damn do-gooders!  |

Well,, I am currently defending the department against the zuombie onslaught. Doesn't go well, if the other breather don't wake up. So, could be joining you soon for the stroll to the heights.
And, doc ... the video is in german. Dutch I could only barely understand. That's like proper english and texan, or some other violation of common sense you guys over there consider a dialect.
But, yeah, it means, I could translate it ... it would take a while though.

(Just messing around E. Notice my spanking brand new title. Proud to be a clueless 'merican!!!) Also playing about the translating. Unless it's on of those "dumb" movies, like Redneck Chicks err zombies...  |

Ugh, sometimes when they come into work i feel like an ass because they have such an odd accent i end up asking them their name like 5 times in a row.
Worse was a young girl that came in. I asked her her name about 4 times.... couldn't get it. So i thought asking her to spell it would be better. I was dead wrong. She pronounced something simple like i think it was an L in a way that no one out of the Amish could get.

She pronounced something simple like i think it was an L in a way that no one out of the Amish could get. I'd hand them pen and paper and tell them to write it down. If they looked at me funny for asking, I'd tell them I'm older than Pre-Cambrian dirt and have hearing loss. |

I dont think that flys when your in your mid 20's lol. But uh... yeah that does sound like a good idea lol. Cause even tho some of them cant read or write to well, they at least know their name address and so on. I think at the moment i was just to wrapped up in the moment, feeling like i was in some Abbot and Costello routine.

Well, why do y'all have to have such a strange pronounciation for your letters. All this double-sounds and vocals, melted together.
It's so much easier here. One letter, one sound, one meaning. Clear, disciplined, straight, upright. A language, ready to march out and CONQUER THE ... ah, shit, not this again.

This just reminded me. We had an exchange student in high school that was from Germany, and i had a computer programing class with him. Usually we did all our work with plenty of spare time so we would play a WWII style shooter and he ALWAYS played the allies. He downright refused to play as the axis and i always found that a little funny. I always was mildly curious about a culture with so much weight to bare from the past generations.

All the hard words to spell in English are FRENCH!!!  I did pick up a smattering of German back in the days. Forgot most of it, except counting upwards to infinity and "Eine beer, bitte." German was rather easy to learn. Logical. I'm sure Vulcan is German based. Or is German, Vulcan based...? Germany has Beer laws that are older then the USA by a few hundred years. I came back to the US and declared to the horror of my clueless American friends that "Budweiser is water!!!!" Best beer in the world. German. |

double rum and coke is my drink of choice. Beer at a bar is to costly, shot prices are extreme, and with rum and coke you end up pissing a whole lot less. The only real trick is finding (flirting) with a bartender that will pour real heavy for ya lol.

Well, some people feel rather strong about all this "try to exterminate a whole ethnic group" - thing. Also, if you get this amount of insight into the system, you just can't see the axis as just some stereotypical bad guys.
Couldn't do it in Civ II either. Had to switch the german gouvernment in the WWII-scenario to communist, to make myself feel better.
Well, you guys just live in the wrong country for beer. Around here, it's the jighest density of breweries in the whole world and the stuff is in most cases the cheapest item on the menu.

I just always interested me, ya know the sins of the father are passed onto the son. And its not like the civil war here in the states were there can be a positive to being confederate. There really is nothing to hang your head on axis wise (besides of course the indivudal men im sure for the most part were fine and brave soldiers on par with the allies). Its something i find fascinating because i don't think i would ever fully understand.

Being particularly nasty here for a moment - perhaps you can get a glimmer of that in a game of cowboys and indians ...
... when the day at school comes to your mind where they taught you about this thing called "trail of tears".
