Photograph: Leiden, Netherlands, February 12th 1929. Two firefighters fight the fire at the city’s medieval City Hall in below zero temperatures. The cold temperature made difficult to control the fire since water would freeze on the stone walls, and the whole building burned and collapsed eventually; only the façade survived. The man in the background watching the firefighters giving all is the Mayor.

It is an enjoyable game if you can get past the bugged tutorial which CA refuses to fix. The real-time battle graphics, night battles and mechanics were stellar at the time. The unique responses of units were also memorable.

The campaign map was much more detailed than MTW1 yet each of them has a special place in my heart.

EVE is a game of war and treachery.

Also: some pictures need A LOT of context… and not even…

 ![1980 Turkish Airlines](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/e/d/e/ede92227982891bde73242fcd75dff78df28164e.jpeg)

Photograph: hijacking of Turkish Airlines flight in 1980. A flight from Munich to Ankara was hijacked by five leftist and rightist activists against the military government in Turkey. A reporter traveling onboard was invited to the cockpit to photograph the situation; then one of the hijackers pressed his gun against the neck of a crew member, who felt ticklish and bursted in laughter. Then everybody else laughed and this surreal picture was born…

(The hijack ended badly for the hijackers, [anyway](https://www.upi.com/Archives/1980/10/14/Turkish-commandos-storm-hijacked-plane/9424340344000/))

There was a tutorial? Imagine that. After Shogun. I never bothered with the tutorial again. Even in Empire I didn’t bother.. Which by that time I was I was hard put to play much anyways. So never really played that all that much. Though the physical disks are still bouncing around somewhere..

Though Sid Meier’s Pirate was a fun little game. Something that I could play after I had cut the grass and did the yard work or on a wintery day. When a snowstorm had shut down most things for the day.

Way back when we all lived in caves and had to walk to school up a goat trail on a mountain in 30 feet of snow both ways. There was one of two tests that every high school student needed to take before graduating. One was is SAT. An SAT was what you took in the hopes of getting into a college or university.. The other was the ASVAB. This is the military test. Half of my graduating class went to college or a university and the rest enlisted. I was one of those that enlisted. My family could not afford to send anyone to college. Two of my younger brothers enlisted as well.

Time to go to sleep… since my cataracts started, and I decided to have them operated, my eyesight issues seem to keep shifting rather than just being fixed… now that I have two lenses for my glasses and can use both my eyes again, after having surgery on left eye, blocking its lens, then have surgery on the right eye, block it, now turns that my right eye doesn’t seem to work properly… the image it sees is lower than the image from the left eye, also is a little smaller (that might be because of the itntraocular lens) and the image is kind of… slightly… slanted. Or maybe a little smaller up than below.

But seriously, when looking ahead whatever my left eye sees, the right one sees it about half my hand below the place where it is according to the left eye.

I don’t know when this started, but at one point while I had cataracts I noticed that tilting my head to the left somehow made easier going downstairs. Which coincidentally places the image from the right eye at the same perceived level as the one from the left eye…

I have an appointment next month and I am certain that my doctor (who happens to be the head of department) will love a new challenge… first I had doble vision with the left eye.. then cataracts… now this whatever it is. I can’t even fathom how the eff can one eye see the same image at a lower level than the other…

And after venting, now I’m off to sleep. Night night lovelies!

Also: huh… what… what the…?

Photograph: “Electric beauty” by Horst P. Horst, 1939. Apparently the model here is using several electric beauty devices at once, which makes the background painting seem a little less weird (and it features a man with a bird head wearing a funnel as a hat, which is diffcult to out-weird).

What I posted.

"I had hit a few small rouge waves back in the early 90’s off the coast of Fort Lauderdale that I called freighter wakes because we had no other explanation other than the heavy shipping in the area. Never heard the term rouge wave back then. Then the moment Mother Nature, Poseidon or King Neptune got pissed and decided to try and kill us. Take your pick…

We were in an offshore powerboat, just getting far enough offshore to get up to speed, apx 60 mph and going for 65 top speed when a rogue wave rose up apx 200 yrs away. It did not come from the prevailing wave direction. It was just big and green against the blue of the ocean. I estimated it to be apx 40 ft tall which means a 40 ft trough but none of us were looking down. Record rouge wave height seems to be 80 ft. At that speed, we had no choice but to turn into it and hit it head on. The driver managed to slow us down, so we just lobbed ourselves into the face of it but was down to apx only 20 ft at that point. The boat punched in, we all stuffed into dashboards, backs of seats kinda like a 30/40 mile an hr into a snowbank. For all the classes I had taken, I was not sure the hull would surface. We punched a bubble so neatly that it closed in over us, causing the engines to echo and then the wall of water fell. We did pop out the back of it with water up to our knees, but the boat kept running and took a half hr to finally bilge out.

Only the ocean decides if it wants to F with you or kill you."
