General Atrocities,

Congratulations! I was rather delighted with my own promotion when it happened.

Kind of nice, isn't it?

General John

Is this a new Category of war crimes? As opposed to specific, particular atrocities?

I have been promoted

Sergeant I am now.

THeir is much rejoicing.

Do you even remember being a Sergeant??

IT took only one month.

Maybe I should get a life and stop posting a few times a day http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Nah.

I enjoy this much more.

You know a forums site is good when you can laugh and learn about sweet tea at the same time...

To both the new general and the new sergeant, I only repeat the ancient Roman phrase in their ears:

"All glory is fleeting..."

Regrets if it's too heavy and true - best wishes for you: rejoice, (for now http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif...

32x the brightness can whittle 1000 hours down to 15 seconds of life.

Those who were called skillful leaders of old knew
how to drive a wedge between the enemy's front and rear;
to prevent co-operation between his large and small divisions;
to hinder the good troops from rescuing the bad,
the officers from rallying their men.
