*Yawns*

[Croaker]

What's that supposed to mean?
Feel bored? How about we try to have our match of R.U.S.E. tomorrow? 2100 Zulu?

[SanMarco]

Guten tag. You are partially correct. I was yawning due to the silence in this thread. Ruse, I am so hung over today. My buddy went from the Marines into the Air Force. He got a job as a drone pilot. We went out and celebrated. I took the bartender back to my place. No idea on what her name was.

I have such a headache today. My every movement is painful.

[Croaker]

Hehe, sound's like quite a party... congrats on that... and to your pal, the future professional wargamer...
Okay, enjoy your hangover then
I'll challenge you later

[SanMarco]

I'm alive, it took the better part of the day to recover.

Big hockey game against the commies, I mean the Russians tomorrow.

There's alot of media buzz surrouding it. I'm sure you're well aware of our shared history with them.

Especially when we beat them for Gold in the 1980 Lake Placid Olympic games. This years team is eerily similiar. Team USA snubbed some good players. Just like the 1980 team. They want players that can skate and play a certain way. "Part of a system"

They've made some movies about that game. I highly reconmend the movie Miracle. The actors were real college players given acting lessons. Some are in the NHL. No Hollywood bs either. All the game scenes match up to the game tape.

There's alot of restaurants, bars, and get togethers going on for it.

Speed and finese vs. red monsters

Will Germany be the savior of the Ukraine?

The news said Berlin is butting heads with Sweden and the Baltic states. But with no clear explanation. How are the approaches different?

Nice to see you on the world stage

Why did Freidrich quit?

[Croaker]

Because as he was Bundesinnenminister, he gave away secret information he received about possible legal investigations against a prospective member of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) to the SPD leader in October 2013. At this time, the "Great Coalition" was about to form and Friedrich (member of the other partner party to this coalition, the CDU/CSU) tried to prevent the SPD from planning with this certain man for higher positions. The man, a Sebastian Edathy, is suspected to have bought "child pornish material", pictures of nude boys in no obvious sexual context, which don't count as pornography and therefore are not prohibited. German law enforcement though searched his offices and homes and confiscated all of his computers, possibly in search of some really bad stuff. The problem is that all the hard drives were erased or removed, so the guy was warned, obviously. It's hard to tell by whom, but Friedrich has quit because of his breach of secrecy...

Another development took place here in our forum:
Kinski got banned. Obviously, he was the one responsible for me being kicked last year, when he blamed me for things he actually did. It only came out this week, because I finally was told what I was to blame. Thankfully, I still had some proof on me to state whom to blame instead. I'm not proud of it, but I'm not the one to throw a "friend" before a bus in the first place. I'm not sure about Tom's motives, but I'm very disappointed as you surely can imagine...

[bubi]

nice to see your rank fully restored, name cleared, with honor. i'm happy for you, mr. Croaker.

just finished watching season 2 house of cards. that show's freaking awesome... it's right up there with game of throne.

cheers

[Croaker]

Thanks cris. I'm glad to... but of course it comes with a down-point since I put a big deal of trust in Kinski...
I wanted to give house of cards a try already, because I'm a big fan of Kevin Spacey, just lacked the time and opportunity

[bubi]

no worries, the show will still be there. the show's been renew for season 3, starting early 2015. say, have you heard or encounter any new computer language? rumor has it MS has been secretly developing a whole new computer language in one of their "off-site" labs, dating back to 2007, if i remembered it correctly.

and hey don't beat yourself up, we all have the same problem at some point of our lives. the most important thing is that being able to recover and hopefully move on.

cheers
