  10. What exactly is a "gringo"? It sounds vaguely insulting. Here's what Merriam-Webster says: Main Entry: grin·go Pronunciation: 'gri[ng]-(")gO Function: noun Inflected Form(s): plural gringos Etymology: Spanish, alteration of griego Greek, stranger, from Latin Graecus Greek Date: 1849 often disparaging : a foreigner in Spain or Latin America especially when of English or American origin; broadly : a non-Hispanic person Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is

  13. It was a dark and stormy Mike. Suddenly a Wordwolf rang out, Rafael screamed... Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is
  14. Rafael: I don't own any of Wierwille's books, so I'm going strictly by memory, as I did with previous contributions. I thought I remembered that from PFAL...if it's not in the book, please carry on :D--> Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is
  15. MJ: It was going to be "babies" instead of puppies. Wasn't the Captain of the Enterprise Jean-Luc Petard? Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is
  16. This post is intended as humor :D--> and is a work of fiction; any resemblence to real Mikes, living or dead, or any MOGs, living, dead, or in-between is purely your own imagination Poster: New evidense has come to light that VP Wierwille literally ate puppies during the last year of his life. He thought that ingesting puppy flesh would invigorate him and cause his eye to grow back. Mike:Since I was not there to see these puppies eaten, it didn't happen Poster:But one of the puppies that he ate was my little beagle named Bic. I was in the room when it happened and head the cries of puppy terror when he did it. Mike:Oh, so you heard the cries did you? That implies that you didn't see it, making it a non-event. Poster:Let me clarify Mike; I both saw and heard the puppicide. Mike:Get over it, Doctor was such a great teacher of the Word that we should overlook something minor like torturing animals Poster:I can't believe that you would support such cruelty Mike:Read and master PFAL, you will find nothing in it to indicate that Doctor ate puppies Poster:You are sick Mike, how can you deny that this happened. Mike:Doctor was the man of God and was following God's Plan set forth in the 1942 promise and was always right, therfore if he ate puppies, it was godly. Poster:I can't believe you. You said earlier that he didn't do it, now you're saying that he did. Which is it. Mike:I have much more to say about puppy eating, but it's been a long day and I have to rest up for a long day of scientific window washing. More tomorrow Poster:Dodging the issue, are you? Mike:Crybaby! Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is
  17. I enjoy that series too. I waiting for the next one in the post-World War I arc. I believe the first one in the series was How Few Remain. It was fascinating to see how Turtledove constructed a possible history where there was not a powerful united United States and how many things it affected, including the outcome of WWI. Another good one was Ruled Brittania where the Spanish Armada succeeds and occupies Britain. I heartily disliked the WorldWar series, although I found it intriguing at first; where World War II is interrupted by an alien invasion.

  19. Yeah, wasn't that funny how the MOGs could read a lot, while we peons couldn't? Rereading Isaac Asimov's Foundation series, and the Robot Novels (I had a lady friend over the other night, and she noticed The Complete Robot on my end table, she asked me if I was building a robot) Star Trek novels Anything by Tom Clancy Anything by CJ Cherryh Darwin's Radio by David Brin is next on my list Harry Turtledove's alternate histories James Clavell's Noble House books Julian May's Galactic Milieu books The New York Times whenever I get the chance Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is [This message was edited by Oakspear on July 21, 2003 at 1:50.]
  20. Ginger: Thanks! :D--> Mike: Of course I'll still buy you a Leinenkugel, thinking that a person is full of .... does not prevent me from springing for a round Oakspear In theory there is no difference between theory and practice...but in practice there is
