on another site people found that moving left to right designating the answers A,B,C,D etc works.  same thing for top to bottom answers, A being the top  and working your way down.

thanks a ton guys.  this history aficionado appreciates it.

ps.  if you don’t want to post the email you can pm me with it.

@Gargantua:

Just POST the damn thing already.

We can respond via PM if you like.

LOL, ok man i’m gonna set it up.

and imperious, not other website will be promoted.

you can respond any which way you like…

my new job has me out in manhattan.  i work for a start up company called flexwage and basically we have a service that gives employees access to wages already earned.  so say if you live paycheck to paycheck(us young bucks) and your cars takes a crap on you, instead of having to go to a payday loan/cash advance type place and pay outrageous amounts of interest, you can just access your wages already earned.  so if you get paid every 2 weeks or monthly, whatever you earned up to then you could get.

right now, my project is setting up a survey, but the crap part is now i have to go out on the street and try to get people to take the 15 question survey.  people in manhattan are pushy, and treat me like a leper.  Or worse.  Some people are cool, but most won’t give me the time of day.  Safe to say this part of the project sucks,……badly.

i just wanted to know if you’d be ok with me putting the survey up here for anyone to take if they want to.  It’s quick and easy, and people could win a 50 dollar visa gift card if you win the random picks we do of emails at the end.

let me know, thanks guys.

@Octospire:

I respect the sacrifice of the American people in WW2, but by the same token thats what comes with being top dog you have to protect those not strong enough to protect themselves and help mediate disputes so they dont turn into wars in the first place.

The Americans were conned into nothing, if anything it was reckless and irresponsible not to get involved earlier and make sure a war didnt occur in the first place. Even if the war was inevitability the U.S with the help of the British and French could of crushed the Germans in September 1939. I think it speaks volumes about American politicians that it was the British who stood up and fought against Germany even though it had by far the most to lose and in the end sacrificed its empire at the altar of freedom because the Americans were “busy” from September 1939 to December 1941.
The problem with America is it wants desperately to not be like the British empire unfourtunetly thats more or less the way they should be bar the colonial oppression. They have to realise that you can take the positives of the British empire and leave the negatives and shape the world you want it to, or at least they could of before they made everyone hate them.

i just watched an episode of ww2 in color and it said that in july 1940 in a poll, only 8 percent of the american people wanted any part of another bloodbath brought to the world by europeans.  have far as americans were concerned, the europeans could go to hell.  And thats exactly what i think too. Why should american boys go and die over a power squabble b/w the elites of european nations?

the very fact that the war monger FDR even tried to conjole americans into war to get 200k+ americans men killed is terrible.  our nation is founded on being the will of the people, and our elected officials being servamts and subserviant to the people.

the very fact that america had to do everything in its power to antagonize japan into attacking so the europeans could get america into their war is just criminal.

this is irregardless of you moral question of it was “better” that americans should go get killed and kill for a nation that it not their own

hands down.  victoria seig heil.

i find myself humming this song during the day from time to time. its catchy

England and France said they would go to war to protect poland from invasion.  Then when poland is invaded they say this is the reason for war.  so they delcare war on germany.

But what about the soviet union.  why in hell didnt they declare war on the soviet union?

i’ll tell you why……b/c protecting poland wasn’t the reason to go to war.  it was one group of elites trying to protect their wealth against another group of elites.

then those warmongers for the second time in a row conned america into joining a war effort b/c the aristocratic elites of the allied powers knew they couldnt beat germany without american help.  so they kept trying to devise ways to either con germany into attacking america by having america carry out overt acts of non neutrality by using american destroyers to protect american lend lease shipments.  when the germans didnt sink any ameircan vessels, they decided to goad japan into attacking america.

America was once again suckered into fighting a war that was not its war to fight.  So many midwestern boys died to european artistocrats could keep wealth and power its sickening.

what say you guys.  ever wonder why england and france never declared war on the USSR for invading poland?

are there any specialized stores that would have most of the variations of A&A?

like toys R us, maybe some store at the mall.  any strictly board game stores?

i’m looking for one of the newer ones and was just wondering.

not looking to buy online, just want to hop in the car and pick one up.

i like the WWI eastern fronts, especially hungary vs russia

the undermentioned southern fronts in the balkans and italy are great to learn about too.  the turkish front with the uk attempted invasion.  The arab jihad movement.  Hell, the fighting in africa is great to learn about along with jockeying done in the far east.

another poster mentioned the mind numbing crap about the western front, and thats true.

nice thread….see my av

4. predators
5. predator 2
6. alien 3
7. alien vs predator requiem
8. alien vs predator
9. alien resurrection

you’d think that with hitlers idea at the bitter end that germany should be destroyed b/c they failed him, that he’d order chemical bombardments of at least the soviet army that was on the outskirts of berlin.
