I like the idea of the hydrogen powered cars, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-fuelled_car#:~:text=Water-fuelled cars have been,be tied to investment frauds.

eh? I am ready for a new game, I dunno what new stuff is out there. Tanks, dunno about it, but with BF games I sure did have fun running around in tanks. Give details and I'll check it out.

That makes me happy recycle, reuse, repurpose, redo and good for you!

YEHAW! NOW GET BACK IN THOSE MAPS SOLDIER!

WOOT WOOT

I have been watching the footage via you tube about the war events going on in Ukraine, this situation is reminding me so much of not only WW2 but of even WW1 History dag gone it, repeats itself, with different names, different parties, different places, but same old horribleness, pain suffering and WHAT THE HELL FOR, so a dictator can play RISK for reals? I sure do hate it when a dictator / dictator wannabees like Trump, for example, have charge of a complete army to make do whatever the heck they want for whatever stupid reason. Way I figure it now, as soon as Putin gives up, he is a dead man, so he is not interested in ending this nightmare otherwise he proves that indeed he was wrong and is wrong as the head of Russia. Dangerous times. Let us learn from the past so we can make wise decisions moving forward/and voting. Bless us all. Below will be a link about DDAY speech imho is pertinent to what is going on today or maybe soon in Ukraine, Taiwan, South Korea ... Serious post, serious subject.

Wow, what took you so long? j/k CONGRATS

bonjour and.... HOWDY

oh, guy humor. lol I saw your post title and immediately went to the World War 2 the famous quote "NUTS" when during battle of bulge they were asked if they wanted to give up and surrender. So this thread is so not about what I thought it was going to be about. Colonel Gaston Bell: General McAuliffe refused a German surrender demand. You know what he said? General George S. Patton: What? Colonel Gaston Bell: "Nuts!" Patton: [laughing] Keep them moving, colonel. A man that eloquent has to be saved. Francis Ford Coppola and Edmund H. North, in Patton (1970), depicting Patton leading three divisions towards Bastogne. On Dec. 22, four German couriers approached American lines under a flag of truce, carrying a message "from the German commander to the American commander." Asserting that Bastogne was "encircled," the note gave McAuliffe, who was acting commander of the 101st in the absence of Maj. Gen. Maxwell Taylor, two hours to surrender or face "total annihilation." It offered "the privileges of the Geneva Convention" to the would-be POWs. What came next would be one of World War II's seminal moments. As [Vincent] Vicari, McAuliffe's personal aide, recalls it 60 years later, "General Mac read the note and said, 'Aw, nuts.' Then he asked, 'What should I tell them?' " Lt. Col. Harry W. O. Kinnard, the division operations officer, said, "Why not tell them what you just said?" "What did I just say?" "You said, 'Nuts,' " Kinnard replied. McAuliffe scribbled a reply: "To the German commander. Nuts! From the American commander." He handed the message to Lt. Col. Joseph Harper, who had escorted the couriers. To the Germans who didn't understand the Yankee colloquialism, Harper explained: "It means the same thing as 'Go to hell.' " While World War II historian Barry Turner says McAuliffe's one-word riposte "lost something in translation," others have speculated that "nuts" might be a sanitized version of what the tough paratroop general actually said. Not so, Vicari says. "General Mac was the only general I ever knew who did not use profane language," he said in a telephone interview. " 'Nuts' was part of his normal vocabulary."

Howdy

hell of a thing... kinda reminds me of what sort of craziness is going on nowadays, history repeats itself, human nature really doesn't change... danger times then, and imho dangerous times now. 2 cents https://world101.cfr.org/historical-context/world-war/why-did-world-war-ii-happen

cool cool!!! What you are describing is yep, what happens, are you by any chance being given any kind of immunotherapy or chemo now? IMHO, you are doing GREAT! Keep up the good work excellent warrior news!

THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US UP TO DATE on what is happening with you, your writing is helping us understand and visualize what you are going thru. I am sending you big hugs and warm wishes mentally, hope you get them.

and also, like the song says, LIVE LIKE YOU ARE DYING. DO IT, GO THERE, SAY THAT (be nice and helpful and loving or else zip up that mouth, just sayin), TRY THAT.

LOOKS YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh My God BLESS YOUR HEART!!! A good friend of mine, her dad had that cancer in stomach and similar surgery to you, he did change his eating style and habits afterwards, then kept on being the doctor he was before like nothing different. Still kept playing tennis, still kept doing his normal stuff. He did die but not of cancer, I think he had a stroke/bad heart issues - it was sudden and unexpected and I did not ask questions, only listened, pretty sure he had a bad, unfixable heart. Hell of a thing, I am so so sorry! You are such a sweet heart. OK now. Cancer meds have made such progress, they are in the process of making, evidently, a pill that cancer patients can take every day and that will keep the T-Cells (thyroid blood cells) up to date on what type of cells they should be seeking out to stomp out, so modern day beefing up of the immune system to fight the good fight. Have you been told yet that this is treatable, doable, and that you should, with monitoring, be able to get on with your life? The key is getting diagnosed so that treatments can begin and those stupid cancer cells can be zapped and outta here. Apparently, cancer cells or cancer like cells run around in our bodies all the time and it is the T-Cells that find em and kill em for most of the time. (Disclaimer, I am not a doctor, but I did sleep on a great mattress last night and do think I know what I am talking about.) Here is a link for and example of that new T-Cell type of treatment being worked on and some folks can use now, lots and lots more to come soon too, apparently. https://www.envita.com/conditions/integrative-oncologists-providing-holistic-cancer-treatment-options You wanna message me, I give good advice - I help out with survival groups, some of them cancer survivors, I hear all sorts of stuff like - great breakthrough news for cancer patients, major breakthroughs happening now, great success on this and that trial, for example. One thing about surgeries, don't forget to be proactive with pain meds, I would always tend to take half of whatever they prescribed pain wise, but at least 30 minutes early, that way the pain would not settle in and become a problem, then by using only half of the pill at a time, I would not have any risk of getting addicted or needing pain meds later on, that is just what I have done has worked OK for me, everyone is different though with different pain tolerances and healing processes. (I tend to get hurt and need surgery alot oops.) TAKE CARE and hopefully we will see you in the maps soon!

OK two words...... MONEY PIT Buyer beware, just sayin... If it looks too good to be true, it probably isn't. And lastly, WHY SO CHEAP IF IT IS THAT BIG, etc? Lordy lordy. 2 cents

WAHOO!!!

I was honestly totally surprised that you have only been gaming with XI for two years~~~ I thought it was a lot longer than that! YOU FIT RIGHT IN! Well, I say HOWDY formally. Now, off to get back in those maps.

oh dear... bless your heart. As one who (skiing crash 4 years ago) went thru the whole knee reattach all ligaments fix up situation, and going thru rehab, I saw lots and lots of folk who needed a knee or hip replacement. I was astonished really about how many folks end up needing hips and/or knees replaced. Apparently, arthritis and wear and tear does it's damage over time. OK. For me surgery easy peasy (I have had so many misc. surgeries to repair this and that) now that we have modern pain meds, this is all no problem, don't worry about the surgery, they got this! ... Get the best surgeon you can find, bingo presto, ta da fixed. The problem is rehab. You have to do the exercises they say, you have to move and walk and follow instructions. NO PAIN, NO GAIN. 2 cents... get your knee /s looked at asap. Once you are fixed up again, like many have said when I ask was it worth it, they say YES, WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG? Good luck there buddy.

Indeed. I could comment more, but this is an example of why being aware and active politically is so important. We need to try to see thru propaganda and "alternative facts" aka made up nonsense for misleading and distraction purposes. We need to be a good society, have only wars of necessity and not ego, greed and obsession (Putin and Ukraine for example), and work as a world order to prevent wars, meanwhile helping to stomp out those evil doers (like dictators - see above), and root for democracy and freedom and basic civil rights for all, not just the rich or lucky. Bless all our hearts.

OK so tell TEKI that this is why I typed OLAY instead of OLE or OLEY https://www.olay.com/regenerist-vitamin-c-peptide-24-hydrating-moisturizer-with-sunscreen-spf-30 OLAY OLAY OLAY OLAY OLAY now get back in those maps soldier!
