You didn't know? My Corps has already sailed to Berlin. We got there 3 days ago and we've been in the Tiergarten on the piss ever since. -- Marshal Soult, October 1806

Don't worry, Darius. I'm a mile high, and I'm the scariest!

Shame he won't be at the barbeque. {beat}

Then again he is a barbeque. {beat}

Technically, my lies are prob'ly true. {beat}

Tell your mama not to burn my shoes!

Houston, we appear to have lost the Emperor.

Repeat, his Bonapartness has gone rogue...

I like for my enemies to have no correct ideas about me.

Don't fall asleep, guys.

And it's dark.

True dark.

Thuringian forest dark.

That is very, very dark indeed.

Bro and Ishy (his wife) gave their kids Ticket To Ride: German Edition for Christmas this year, and it was kind of weird and funny because at first he couldn't decide whether to give it or not -- because he hadn't decided yet whether to tell the girls that they might possibly be going to Germany next autumn (to see some family friends there) and that the game was a way of helping teach some basic geography to the girls. (Why not just give the girls the game and not mention next year if it's iffy? I dunno.)

Christmas Day our parents and I go down to visit, and the adults are all in the dining room on the table playing their second game that morning. They keep promising the kids can play it later.  :2funny:

While watching, I pointed out to Bro where we are in the KS.  :coolsmiley:


(I dearly wish I could go to Germany with them this coming autumn, if they go, but I can't really be gone from work for more than a day.  :'( No vacations for me.)

This, Sire, is your foot pillow.

It was taken as war booty after Waterloo.

Pilfered directly from your carriage.

It is currently on display in Berlin.

Motivation, should you have needed any...

I received both a Prussian flag and a French bicorne for Christmas. I am conflicted.

You are not allowed to be that unspecific.

Which flag and which bicorne?!?

God's sake, man.

Brilliant!!

Provenance of the bicorne?  Proper cockade and everything!

My son found a place that does gear for reenactors and had it made.
