I heard rumour [sic] of some place called "Australia" down there. They allegedly have animals that live in pouches. Pfft...probably also fake.
Bring me the head of Diego Garcia...and the Mayor of Addu Atoll too!

Wow! I just bought the game in September and started reading the AAR for some tips. I picked this one because it sounded like someone might have a sense of humor (Bring me the head of Diego Garcia!) Little did I know.... Absolutely hilarious!
Just finished catching up this morning, and had to join the forum so I could throw in my 1-1/2 cents worth once in awhile.
Ahh...welcome. A number of us were wondering if it is really true that Miss Scarlet is a woman of base morals? Do you have any insights?

I have it good authority that this is the world's worst AAR!
let's face it, most of us have seen more action in the sports pages in a grumbly gram from the pash.

Miss Scarlet? I did see her once, in the conservatory, with the candlestick....Other than that, I wouldn't have a Clue![;)]
Sprior - Disclosure - I'm a tax auditor....We'll chat about the offshore account later. I'll also want to discuss Milo.
Chickenboy - I can learn from them because they're doing pretty well. I can tell because I read the manual.[:'(]
And I have to figure out how these damned smiley thingies work.

Sorry, when I saw it I became dizzy, dropped my camera and broke it. Besides, I'd feel bad publishing any pics ahead of Pocahontus Girl.

You think UV light isn't dangerous? Look what it did to this decal in Newport Beach, Calif. Well, I assume it was sun damage [:)]

Skinflint. From a cosmic justice standpoint, Cebu USN support Bn., which will be landing on Mindanao, includes Phillipino infantry (previsouly evacuated from the PI). Of course, tehy probably won't be able to communicate with the locals.

See..THAT is the reason the Eurozone is slipping back into recession. Not enough productivity! [;)]
Now, in my case, I "wasted" 3 1/2 minutes adding silly seaplane search arcs to the map not out idleness or sloth, but because I am making a political statement...the John Gault thing.
By ra way, please tell us the "85" is the year you graduated from university or got married or something and NOT the year you were born.
