Snapple, good luck, it is a real B*%^@ at first but it will get better! the patch helped me out and as PC stated you will be amazed at how much better you will feel! (You can do this!) I have been smoke free for 3 months now and every know and then I do want a smoke, but after a short time you are going to notice a smell. (oh man does it STINK!) this smell is going to be in your car (if you smoked there) on your clothing etc. You will wonder why you never noticed it before! Good Luck, you are soon to join the ranks or the reformed smoker! -Vercingetorix (proud to be SMOKE-FREE or AKA Damn I have Money!)

You look up there and just say to yourself: I've got to get up there. I've just got to get one of those flights." -Roger Chaffee (The New York Times, January 29, 1967, p. 48.)

For those of us old enough to remember these fellas also If we die, we want people to accept it. We're in a risky business, and we hope that if anything happens to us it will not delay the program. The conquest of space is worth the risk of life." -Gus Grissom (John Barbour et al., Footprints on the Moon (The Associated Press, 1969), p. 125.)

Right now I am useing Leadteks A250TD Ti4600 (non-ViVO) I am very happy witht he framerate and speed of this card. I know that the 9700 is posting some great #'s but Nvidia seems to always be there with new drivers and addons, I have not ever had one of the other cards. My opinon is to stick with Nvidia. -Vericngetorix

Mi culpa Mi culpa! Ok folks my choice of funnies hit a low for me, picking on the French (even though I use a French moniker for the game and boards) but this is neither here no there, please let me apologize to those who were offended but this bit of levity and my poor choice of posting. I shall endeavor to go off and sin no more! :roll: Vercingetorix (No relation to Trent Lott!) -

Back in 1991 I went ‘across the pond’ to go and play in the big sandbox, I was full of piss and vinegar and felt that 7.56 would just bounce right off my ‘southern skin’ because I was raised on John Wayne, Clint Eastwood and more than ½ of my family had served our nation in some capacity, My Mothers father was a captain in the 82 Airborne who served in the Philippines during the second World War, my Dad’s father still has the distinction of being the youngest 1st sergeant in the 101 airborne. (How Mom and Dad ever got together god only knows, Officers Kids and Enlisted kids didn’t mix in those days. My Uncles flew in Korea and Vietnam for the Air Force and Navy (Air force F-105 Thunder Chiefs, Navy A-6 Intruders among other A/C) and these were the family in the states, I wanted to also tell you about the family I have in a little patch of sand known as Israel. I never knew very much about my Mothers family outside of the Grandparents but I heard stories when I was little, the kind that adults tell to other adults when children were to be in bed, I head of places like Birkenau and Mauthausen ( not as ‘famous’ as some but do look them up). I heard of family that went in and never came out and I learned of some of my people going ‘home’. I never gave much thought to being a Jew, it was not practiced in my house for my fathers people were about as Jewish as the Pope is, but as I got older and learned more I must say I am very proud of my little known family and the nation that they helped rediscover because they may have insured my ability to come back home because…. On June 7th 1981, IAF planes attacked the Iraqi nuclear reactor and destroyed it in a single bombing run. The attack was carried out by the new F-16s, which had joined the IAF less than a year earlier. The plant, which was intended for the production of nuclear weapons, was destroyed before it became operational; had Israel waited much longer, an attack would have caused radioactive fallout in the area around Baghdad. The attack removed the nuclear threat to Israel - and its necessity became doubly clear when Saddam Hussein launched the Gulf War and lobbed missiles into Israel, a decade later”. Israel was ‘blasted’ by the press and world opinion but I am glade that they did Saddam wanted the processed uranium that that plant would have been able to deliver. I still wonder what ‘could have happened’ to all of us in Desert Shield/Storm. I am a staunch patriot, I love my country and its people, I disagree with ‘some’ of our leaders, but men (and women) who came before me fought and died to give me that right to disagree. I refuse to listen to the Sean Penn’s (this AssH*& is no better than Hanoi Jane to me!) and many other so called ‘Peace Loving People’ Yes I did go to ‘see the elephant’ (that is a VERY DATED phrase) and I would not want to send my son or my daughter to such a place as Iraq or Panama (Played there also) , PC I am not criticizing your views but I do not see this president being a LBJ or Nixon, I view Saddam as a great threat, I feel that it was a mistake by the elder bush to allow him to live, (no matter the political ramifications) I feel that the United States must assert the fact that if you ‘screw with us” woe unto you. Teddy Roosevelt used to like to use an African Saying “Speak Softly….etc” I think that we need to show the big stick every once and a while perhaps we would have less problems if other countries understood that the lives that would be lost would not be those of the faceless masses out side their ‘presidential gates’ but there own and there families. Am I Barbaric, Neanderthalic in my thinking? I may be but remember the truism of ‘never leave an enemy behind you’. Well I guess that this old ‘foot-slogger’ has rambled enough (sorry about that) I just wanted to rant may rant also -Vercingetorix 1/75 1985-1993
