You have nicknames for most of the islands on the screen.

You always think of star trek when seeing the kobyashi maru

you line up the arrow on your mouse on the Japanese air search circles at the turn starts

On my way to work this morning, I was thinking about which squadrons would upgrade to F4F4's in my nasty IA game. Didn't even remember the ride to work.[X(]

Am the same with Kobyashi Maru.

I have brought my other book interests INTO my Mods. You will find the Nakja-Mur Maru, Salissa Maru, and one other. All AMCs carrying proud names...

Anyone know the series (Michael you cannot answer!)...

Lets see, the staff car has changed (twice), and so has the motorcycle, (twice) and the seasons (24 times) and I'm still a noob.

Every August we have a get together at our house for an internet group my SO and I belong to (Myers Briggs personality type related, she and I are the same type). My SO likes to have a theme every year. For 2012 we had an end of the world theme. I made a rather large cake in the shape of an Aztec pyramid and she put cherry jam running down the steps. She's part Aztec and likes to get in touch with her cultural roots.

Another year she wanted to do an alien beach party and got this vinyl wallpaper thing that looked a lot like the shore bombardment screen in AE. I suggested putting little tubes sticking out of the foliage and she said OK, but I didn't get around to it. While she's decorating, I am usually tasked with more mundane things like making sure the lawn chairs aren't covered with bird droppings, making sure people can get to the beer fridge and other such things.

The guy who was helping us get set up thought my suggestion for adding CD guns was really out there. My SO just thought it was kind of funny. She once had a band that did parodies of 60s music called Venus Envy and the Flytraps. They actually had a minor following in the local club scene.

Now George, temper, temper.[:D] BTW I'm glad I'm past that stage. She's married and they just bought a house (and he's a good kid).

Glad to hear your daughter married a good kid.[:)] There are not many out there. I figure I have about 3 to 5 years before my daughters get married.

I met my wife in HS. Over 30 some odd years ago. was the 7th or 8th girl I had dated at that point. My wife and I had a few of the same teachers and even to this day, we are friends with one of them. They have even spent time with my kids when they were young as well....GP
