Good one, I've got to admit. Guess Warlord is at 100 posts. The way you're going, you should hit them pretty quick, but not as quick as me... MUHAHAHAHAHAHA !

Pam Anderson is a Canadian from Newfoundland. Get your own symbol, maybe a giant barbie holding a Big Mac and a can of Coke, American as apple pie

Yes, the book calls Africa a dark continent, and there are still many people there that practice "indiginous beliefs."

They also haven't accepted the Christian moral of having a single sex partner. AIDS is all over there now. They could be saved if they just listened to us...

You really need to try reading beyond your textbooks. The AIDS crisis in Africa is far more than a religious issue.

We are still not Christians... some of us still have minds flexible enough to still ask questions... we call ourselves agnostics.

Newfoundland. Is that Terre-Neuve ?

Is it just me, or are you saying you found a cure for AIDS ?

Is it an old Chinese proverb that states that a life you save is your responsibility for ever?
The problem of most good intentions is that they have unseen consequences.

I was unaware Canada laid copyright claim to Pamela Anderson, when do you propose to replace the maple leaf?

I guess that line was at its top during the seventies... You've heard it in Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or what ?

Well I admit she was transformed by DOW chemical but she does have her better points.
Having her bounty hoisted on a mast flappin in the wind is a bit much though, especially between two satin red bed sheets

 

[Ozymandius]

Hey there red mask, I thought I was original.

If THAT is not the most poetical description of the Canadian flag ever made...

 

[GhengisFarb]

Looks like all the discussion of Pam Anderson has driven Higher Game away....

 

[Masquerouge]

Well, what do you expect ? Pamela=sex=sin.
Speaking about mustard gases, however...

You JUST have have the last post in the thread, don't you?

Oh, I see, you're trying to hit 100 posts today.....

 

[Masquerouge]

But I guess I won't hit 100 today, beeeurk, 'cos I'm leavin in 15 minutes... and won't be back 'til Monday.*

But please keep this thread alive, and please Highergame gives us our daily bread of history cliches...

* : you're NOT suggesting I should come on this forum when I'm not at work, do you ?

Some little Balkan country started the war, but Germany was really the one to blame. They broke the rules and paid for it. Besides using unrestricted submarine warfare,

Breaking which rule?

they used MUSTARD GAS. There have been so many Geneva conventians against chemicals used in war. That apparently didn't stop Germany. They were powerful enough as it was, but they got greedy and payed for it. [/B]

The Geneva protocol against chemical warfare was written in 1925, AFTER (and because of) WW I.
The Germans were not the only ones who used chemicals (and mustardgas specifically) in that war. In fact, after the Russians, the Germans had the most casualties from chemical warfare.

The Geneva convention did not stop the USA to produce a large quantity of mustard gas in WW II - however, the only victims were their own sailors, when the ship carrying the gas was bombed in Bari Harbor (1943). They were very, very fortunate that most of it was absorbed by the fires that broke out.

Hey, when PTW comes out I really hope we could get the participants of this thread together for a multiplayer game. Considering how everyone reacts to each other, I think it would be almost as entertaining to see them play against each other.

 

[Evie]

Damn. How am I supposed to waste all my time now that Higher Game doesn't want to play anymore?

Guess I have to go back to waiting for Moscow - or Santa - to attack Israel for Armageddon to start...;-).

BTW, I thought you could change your rank at will anyway after a few post, so why are you guys trying to hard to get the postcount for a specific rank?
