omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

aw. Spreadsheet is at home. :: kicks dirt :: Stupid work, slowing down the game. I have a mind to just walk out!

Eh, maybe not. But I do have waiting for me at home from Netflix, "Battlestar Galactica: The Plan". Not that it helps with this skill check.

I think I have all orders in now. I will tally the vote when I get home, and report what color and numbers to you. Then we get to launch more Raiders! YeeHaaaaw! Ride 'em Cowboys!! (um, I might have spent a lil too much time in Texas).

Thanks for the offer, Sean. I think I'm holding up my end for now. We have decided where the computer will go at home & are researching internet options but we don't yet have a desk for the computer- that should happen Saturday. I'll keep y'all posted.

Apparently there was a board game in the 70's called “BP Offshore Oil Strike” The news story can be read here. [link] Uncanny. I hope they realize, this isn't a game right now.
