  1. I'm starting to slow down, and thinking of handing it off to someone else. Could you take over? Or have an idea of who would? Or should I put up a want ad here?

  2. I don't know if you've read it so far, but after rereading it, I felt it was too confusing. After all, if I'm confused, what about the reader who isn't inside my head.

     

    Something to avoid. Dark, drafty, dusty, and there be monsters there...

  3. So your choice. Whichever is easier, because once it's done, I will report the sensible version

  4. The idea was we needed allies and they couldn't protect themselves. When the US suggested the European allies supply Germany's needs the answer was pretty much 'eff them'. So we needed to pay for it. In the East Japan couldn't legally rearm so we came up with the idea of them having a 'self defense force' instead.

  5. So should I put up an ad? Or do you want to and make it a Caesar style coup d'état? :p

  6. we had the monopoly for only three years, from August 1945 until January 1948. The only advantage we had remaining was that the Russians had only one plane capable of carrying those huge bombs, the TU4 knock off of the B 29. But the Russians got hold of it by copying the three B29s they had on hand, and buying the engines and landing gear from the US so they could build a 'civilian airline'

  7. I'm getting an internal server error and have been for two weeks now. I have tried to contact the webmaster but the email address came back as undeliverable.

  8. Besides the Russians had taken the German Border Guards in East Germany and started the Eastern German army. It was believed that the Russians would create an incident requring them to occupy Western Germany for their own 'protection'.

  9. I started giving them back in 2007. My stepdaughter used to answer any comments with 'whatever'. If you've read all of my additional comment posts in Family of Choice I offered a whatever to anyone who could name the food that matches Merdai stew.

  10. here or at Fanfiction?

  11. All it would mean is if you asked me for a serious beta-read I would not be able to review it.

  12. But at first the RUssians weren't capable of hitting us, then when they were we had parity in warheads. So we entered the era of MAD. WHile everyone gave Reagan crap about Star Wars it was him forcing that extra expende that broke the Communist piggy bank

  13. To quote Igor from Van Helsing, 'it's what I do

  14. I just posted my try, for this contest; The Farce is strong in this one.

  15. I am back up and should be able to post again by early next week

  16. I was having fun after I watched the new 'Clash of the Titans' because the only 'heroes' in Christianity are the ones that pretty much died horribly for their faith. I had also seen an Anime that reminded me of the old TV show 'Greatest American Hero' where the guy doesn't under stand the suit or what powers he has, so he in hero form tends to fly into buildings, or with his butt high in the air, head down.

     

    I decided the gods of mythology had gotten together and given the power to be an old style hero like Gilgamesh or Jason to some poor schlub who wouldn't have amounted to anything. I had fun with that too. Aphrodite sitting on the available laps, Artemis petting her pet Bubo the owl, who promptly bites her hand, that kind of thing

     

    However, unlike a comic book hero, he's supposed to create his own form, but he's into Japanese Anime where most of what we define as heroes are female...

  17. I've done the review, but I will cut it to save. All right?

     

    I expect you'll want to let me know when.

  18. what I can do is review but save posting for later. If it's for the Javyar's challenge, I will need to have you send me a copy at rihannsu92220@yahoo.com

  19. Now you have me interested. send it.

  20. Any you might have to offer. So far I have a girl (Heather) who is a super genius repressed Tony Stark type, A magician with real powers, a psycho-kinetic, and the Hero who can do pretty much what he(she) wants as long as he thinks of what it is.

  21. Oh and I forgot, a biological android from an alternate universe.

  22. I'm brain dwad obviously. Which story?
