Midway did happen around June 6, actually started about June 4, but two years later the BIG June 6 happened - D-Day, the invasion of Europe.

Midway was the turning point in the pacific war. I think it's historical weight cannot be measured in comparision to the Normandy landings.

Has anyone ever traveled to the beaches ???

Sorry about changing the topic of this thread.... Funny where conversations lead to.

Hey UnusualData. I just noticed your PVT. I have replied.

Take care.

In regardst to wives, after almost 27yrs of marriage, I've found that the best time to play is when your mate is watching her special programs on TV and when my granddaughter is down for the night, cats are fed, dishes done, etc, this is usually around 9;30 - 10;00 pm, my only problem is fighting with kids to get on the computer.... also, she finaly got her own computer at work w/internet.. now she sends me email at work and even ASKS me to look stuff up for her on the net and in addition she finally went along with us getting cable modem....Now if I'm not on at night/kids are off, she even asks me why I'm not playing.... go figure... but I do take time out and talk with her, well once in awhile at least... ask about her day at work, etc, .... then slowwwlly sneak into computer room...

Remember, no husband has ever been shot for doing the dishes......

just some ideas mac

I've been married 26 years. I've had a computer for about 22 of those years. For most of that time my wife regarded the computer as a direct competetor with her for my attention. She hated it.

I used to have to go to bed early with her, then get up in the way early morning to play for a few hours before work or school if I didn't want to be nagged.

We have two children(girls). It is good, because when my wife is nagging them she usually leaves me alone and with the computer!

Eventually, the girls got computers too. Since they tend to pay less attention to her when they are using their computers, and, most importantly, they make bigger messes and are bigger slobs then I, she usually forgets all about me and focuses all her nagging on them!

This, of course, allows me much more free time with my computer!

I think there is a moral to this story, however I haven't a clue as to what that it might be.

Hmmm, maybe, "Happy is the father of two daughters, for his wife will nag them!"

My wife doesn't even like it when I come here to read the Posts more than once a day...let alone play SEIV for more than 1/2 hr.

I guess I've got it made. My wife likes TV, I like gaming. From 6-11pm almost every night, she's in there, I'm in here. We do have an agreement to sit and talk at the dinner table, which seems to be all the interaction necessary for our lives. Well, not all!
