God Bless You, Mr. Vonnegut.

Great story Tall Paul,

I know what you mean…. I was having a game with a buddy of mine who was playing his first ever A&A game and he rolled snake eyes when I tried to bomb London with 2 Bombers. However, your story about rookie rolls was much more incredible.

BUMP

I agree. Al Qaida is almost exclusively a Sunni group made up mostly of Saudi’s.

I just misread your sentence “I have not yet encountered a hostile Iraqi, most of them are in fact, of Saudi background.” as being that you have not encountered hostile Iraqi’s who had emmigrated from Saudi Arabia and I was thinking that any Saudi who emmigrates to Iraq is probably up to no good….

No.  I am not Asatruar.

I am a non-practicing Eclectic Neo-Pagan.

Well, as many of you know, my preliminary run of my 2005 Federal Taxes left me with a miserable $50 refund out of nearly $10,000 in Federal Income Tax paid.  I was NOT happy.

But… spent the afternoon with Turbo Tax…

Now I am getting back $2700+

$40 to buy it, and that investment paid a return of $2650.  Hell of an investment.  You gotta love loopholes, itemizing, losses from the sale of property, etc., etc. to reduce that Federal Income Tax bill…

All legal, all above board.

Just trying to keep a bit more of what is mine…  The Feds still get too d*mn much of it anyway…

Locked, this is just going in circles and getting a little personal….

Oh btw:

And how do you know how the story is supposed to read? You don’t buy into any part of the Bible, but you are an expert on it?

I’m actually quite fascinated with the Bible. I’ve read the King James version through a few times, and done a lot of research on the creation and symbolism behind the book. So yes, when it comes to history I’m fairly well versed in the Bible.

Intresting… perhaps I should try some mind games of my own. :wink:
