That appears to be the case. Be prepared for anything.

Hey, not everybody can go on top. Take one for the team when necessary, or perhaps even more than one.

For some reason Blood and Wine for Witcher 3, approaching Midsummer, and reminiscing about ould plans about playing Vampire the Masquerade campaign set in Finland, made me again ponder how these creatures would cope with long summers of northern lattitudes.

When I was in HS, autocad was just becoming a thing in drafting classes.
Couple of years later, a buddy of mine is running landscape designs off a laptop in his pickup truck for business ads. That was mid-90s.

I used to learn place names because they were silly... like Lake Titicaca in South America. Hattusa sounds like some form of dance to me, for some reason. [bad pun]I guess everyone can just Hittite until the Hattusa sounds begin [/bad pun] :p

Hattusa #5! Image

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 everyones in the chariot c'mon let's ride
To the nation state around the corner
The boys say the want some sex and slaves but I really don't wanna
Bad time like I had last week
Those sea people made things so bleak
Assyrians, Babylonians and other too
Just had to kill the party for me and you

A little bit of Shalmaneser in my life
A little bit of Tudhaliya by my side
A little bit of Ashur-resh-ishi's all I need
A little bit of Mursili's all I see
A little bit of Labarna in the sun
A little bit of Anitta all night long
A little bit of Telepinu here I am
A little bit of past make me your man.
