    Any Gunsmiths/Gunbuilders here??

    I never built from scratch, but did assemble a Kentucky .45 caliber muzzleloading pistol from a kit. I use that pistol mostly for show, tucked into the belt of my Mountain Man outfit when i go to Rendezvous. It actually shoots, but ain't acurate for nothin'. It seems i would have a better...

    Battlestar Galactica

    I haven't seen the new series, but I hear it sucked> They made Starbuck a woman! What was that all about? and they made the Cylons look human, too. I loved the old pre-1980 series, before they introduced that pretentious wonderboy even I, an affirmed geek myself, wanted to give an atomic...

    Read this if you think Christians are not persecuted in America

    I find it sadly ironic that christians are being persecuted for their beliefs in the U.S. by those very same people who claim to champion freedom of religion. People like the ACLU, who takes up the cause of every Muslim/ Hindu/ pagan/ cultist/whatever, whenever they have even the slightest beef...

    a play called "Flavius"

    yeah! I like your idea about detailing the events leading up to Flavius being martyred. perhaps he witnessed to his fellow legionares, or refused to deny his beliefs when confronted by a pagan beureaucrat. In fact, you have just given me an excellent idea! the play could start out with Flavius...

    a play called "Flavius"

    I have an idea for a passion play, that will center around the experiences of a Roman Soldier we will call "Flavius". Flavius was there when the servant of a Roman officer, who was ill to the point of near death, suddenly recovered to full health, and he over heard the officer thanking a man...

    Warhammer 40'k

    Orks are fun! I deliberately made mine as hot headed and loosely organised as i could, just so they would fight amongst themselves as much as they fought everyone else. sure, I lost a few battles that way, but I always had fun doing it. Mine were called "Da Meen-Toof Boyz".

    Warhammer 40'k

    TYRANNIDS ARE NASTY! The genestealers are a creation of the Tyrannids, and they are bloody wicked! Even a Terminator marine is not safe from a genestealers viscious claws. it's no wonder everyone gangs up on the Tyrannids. It's called self-preservation!

    What inspired your screen name?

    My name on Allpoetry.com is NeferMaatNetjer, which is Middle Egyptian for "good is the truth of God". I decided not to use that name here because Egyptians are not exactly the good guys in the bible, so I chose Historygeek, because, let's face it, that's exactly what I am.

    Refusing to fight

    Civilian contractors especially should be veterans. they would build less junk if they actually had to use it themselves. take the M-16 for example. that misbegotten piece of junk should never have gotten approved for jungle warfare, as it is about as ill suited a weapon as ever has been made...

    Model railroaders

    Actual steam? cool! I've seen some of those and they can be expensive. one of the guys in the club I belong to has one that actually runs on steam, but it cost him something like 2000 dollars, so he doesn't use it very much, but it actually has a miniature boiler inside of it, and you actually...

    Model railroaders

    Ever thought of working in "N" scale? You can build a detailed layout in a relatively small space. I've seen some impressive layouts in an area no bigger than a kitchen table. Thats what I'm planning to do in my apartment.

    I know it's blaspemous to even suggest it, but I would like to see the Blue Angels do a show flying SU-27 flankers. it would be quite a trick to see the whole formation do a simultanious cobra manuver!
