Social ~-^-~ Cloud City Cantina [Version 14.0]: Big Trouble in Little CCC ~-^-~

The best use of a post milestone is to invoke thought in other posters.... so you passed the test

 

I bet I'll leave you two to your secrets

 

Hooray!

Edit: Secrets are just another way of saying strategies to me.

 

Oh indeed

 

There are no secrets there....
I have secrets but that isn't one of them.


I'm just as confused as you are. And imagining a train with a pineapple for the engine

 

That's definitely confusing

 

To quote the guy that does the True Facts videos...

"How does it do?"

 

You mean like "True Facts About the Cuttlefish"?

 

Yep . Exactly.

 

That was a funny vid. It's also the only one I've seen

Anyways it's past midnight so I'm off to bed. I'll see you later

 

Goodnight Shira!

*locks up and turns down all the lights*

*reclines in her throne and falls asleep, leaving an HK-47 to watch over her and the Cantina*

 

****orders a flameout***
Hello hk-47 um.................. wanna drink it's called a chassis drainer!

 

*is asleep upside-down..........somehow*

 

Mind if I join you?

Can't help but say how good those look.

 

Some background on Remembrance Day (British):

11th of November is used to commemorate the armistice that resulted to an end to the horrors of WW1. It is on the 11th, because the day that the armistice was negotiated, they decided there would be peace at 11am the next day.

But, there was a very unfortunate turn, there were allied attacks planned for 7am, some were cancelled, others weren't. In the space of 4 hours, 11,000 men died, for absolutely nothing.

Many people were left scarred and psychologically damaged after the war. There was a club, known as the British Legion (soon a large organisation), which was made up of war veterans and other servicemen. They made it their job to help those who had suffered because of WW1.

On much of the western front, the only flower that grew after the war was the poppy. The British Legion took it as a symbol of rebirth, and new beginnings.

 

Thanks is not required, I'm a historian.

 

Yay for history!

Do you specialise in a "type"? Or have a favourite subject (or a few!)?
I'm by no means a historian but I like Eastern, ancient civilisations (especially languages and art), and the UK, Italy, and France up until the 1960s or so.
