    Hey, man! Good to hear from you! Sounds like you're doing well, all things considering this year. Military History, eh? Any particular time period you're trying to focus on?

    @Aqua-Letifer Howdy! Good to see you, my friend! The degree covers everything from pre-Mongol all the way up and through Desert Storm. I've already blazed through two of my textbooks, cover-to-cover. Fascinating shit! 🙂

        Damn fine to see you here, even though we are in touch elsewhere.

          FFS, @Frank_W , how long have you been with TNCR?

          We've changed, to be sure. A lot less contentious than it used to be, but most of us, after all these years are friends. There's no one here that I wouldn't be happy to share a beer or some (cheap) whiskey with.

          I would not have said that a decade ago. We disagree, but we understand each other well enough after all this time to make it okay.

          Stick around, jump in. The water's good.

            @Copper Thanks for checking it out! I've written a ton more since then. Sadly, it doesn't make enough to pay the bills. Yet. I just keep on writing, though. It's always gratifying to sell a piece here and there. It nets a few dollars a month.

              @George-K Indeed, indeed... 🙂 I've missed everyone. Thanks for giving me a link. So much has happened over the past couple of years, I lost touch.

                    Frank!

                    Great to see you again. Great to know that you are well. Hope you stick around. Maybe you could share some of that pre-Mongol knowledge?

                      And another thing....

                      Many of us are "friends" on FB.

                      However, that's different. On FB, anyone you've ever "friended" has access to what you say, and you're inundated with all of their carp.

                      I have > 100 "friends". Most are acquaintances, former co-workers, etc. They're not "friends." They'e people I know.

                      Here, we are, even if we disagree, real friends, especially after (gasp) more than a decade. It's a totally different, and better, dynamic.

                          Hey Frank! I returned in Feb 2020 after a good 5-8 years mostly away. As soon as I returned the whole forum moved to this nodebb platform but hahahaha they didn’t lose me! Suckers.

                            But we learned from that. Won't make the same mistake twice. 😉

                            Frank - glad you've joined folks here. We're lucky to have you on our team.

                              Frank - I drove through Bakersfield last fall on my way to Pismo Beach from Vegas. Thought about you as I went through.
