About 69 of em (nice!)

*Don't @ me, its AI, it follows Trumpmath.

Mr Beast along with the Tates are part of a very short list of banned content for my kids.

I'm open minded, but not to THAT extent.

Go to the Babylonian Calendar, or its just talk.

Just one of many issues with the film.

If you take a step back and enjoy, it is a fun ride.

News! Christopher Franke has just released a ton of Babylon 5 soundtracks on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Pandora and others: six large volumes and smaller, six episodic soundtracks. Available yea unto this very moment.

MY absolute nightmare scenario is MERS level fatality with SARS level transmissibility.

Its the same damn virus family, and EVERYONE in authority should be examining that risk.

Calories in and calories out, is always a gross oversimplification.

For first principles though, its much easier to cut 100 calories than to run (or walk) a extra mile*

(100/mile is also a simplification)

Discovery, much like Kash, is going to be lit!

Sounds like a perfect day to me.

Babylons green is hard to distinguish against the map colors, sorry.

The eventual war with Babylon only cost me just 6 units, killing 25, and capturing their 4 cities. Tech advantage and highly trained units, that I rotated once damaged.

Didn't even get the 4th city converted before the points victory clicked in

5th game as Kush (finish 4-1 with the different leaders).

Fast out of the box, kept Carthage and Rome relatively happy with caravans and the occasional bribe, plus a good wall of steel on each border.

I think the next DLC I get will be the one that adds families to the existing nations.

He will not make any decision until after OTAs.

Pluto is haunted, actually.

Love the bluebells, not the tripping.

*Multi-million dollar second homes

He scored on a throwing error, giving us an 8-8 tie, our first this season (no extra innings in league play) and putting the field over an hour behind schedule. (for a nominal 90 min timed game).

Finished the season 3-6-1, into the B bracket for the playoffs, starting next Saturday.

Top of 3rd we scored 2, then they scored 2 (3-3 )
Top of 4th we scored 5 (the Max) then our pitcher had a bit of a struggle with his control and got the bases loaded before being pulled.
Relief hitter gave up a hit, got 2 outs and we were 8-7 with 2 outs, with a runner on 3rd.

Today's baseball was a fun one, if long (almost 2 hours as we started a 4th before time ran out).
Top of 1st, our 2 hitter got walked, but picked off. 3 up 3 down.
They scored a run in bottom of 1st.
Top of 2nd we scored a run to tie it, and held them scoreless.
(so 1 - 1 after 2)

Anyway, I can tell my own standard of play has improved, I am much better at specializing cities and making sure the governor is supporting that specialization.

My "Trade" city was pumping out a caravan every 2-3 turns. That is a lot of cash and a lot of +diplomacy points.

Needless to say Rome went after Carthage pretty hard. I think that is actually hard coded into the computer players, it seems anytime those two are close they go after each other.

Then Assyria decided I had been weakened enough, and declared war. I sued for peace with Hatti and gained a tribute. Which after trading mobile forces, with Assyria was used to pay a tribute to them for peace.

Rome and Babylon were kept mostly happy with trade caravans.

4th game as Kush, and did much better. Much more aggressive in grabbing the tribal lands, and got a comfortable start.
Hatti came at me (bro!) and got defeated in detail in their mobile forces, and the one city I captured was going to be only the start.
I had a 20VP lead so just needed to play safe

Can't beat having a weather radio, for several years I had one in my office at work as I was the main contact for lab emergencies.

The emergency services say to have at least two ways to get warnings.

Fascinating study on the local (intragalactic) neighbourhood.

That got a genuine laugh out loud.

Thanks.

I never knew Pulp Fiction counted as Scripture, I figured it was a different sub-genre of literature.

He is annoying the right people.

I'm not a Catholic, but I kinda like this Pope.
