> Another serious training mistake was revealed later; the Soviets used their own diesel-engine tanks to train the dogs rather than German tanks which had gasoline engines.[5] As the dogs relied on their acute sense of smell, the dogs sought out familiar Soviet tanks instead of strange-smelling German tanks.[7]

This is the tragicomic story I always heard.

I actually have this on CD for Mac. A friend of mine gave it to me because he'd upgraded beyond the ability to play it. I accepted it out of curiosity, but it would not play on my machine either.

I've heard of that. Suppose Lucas felt silly for not thinking of that first?

I can't remember if I already shared this with you, but it's the kind of crossover that makes people roll their eyes when it happens on a RPG:

This is one of those instances where I love the world I live in. People have no idea how much culture actually spreads.

That's a picture of my squad. Checking the date of the picture against my journal, I think it was taken the day the sheriff of Nimrud was killed. I didn't get along with one of the Iraqi officers at that station, so I would hop up into the turret when we'd go there and send my gunner inside instead.

Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap.
And for a less clinical account.
I showed a buddy that and he ordered some soap for the lulz. Says it IS good stuff.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.
--The horror of Mario
Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

That stuff is really great for use in soap foamers, but it does tend to run a bit caustic. The bottle is a great read.
