This should actually read "didn't get a warrior, period."

Thanks folks. I will try to keep up with the pace you have set.

Watch out. Staying away from civ that long means there is a danger that your wife might get to know what you're really like.

why don't you actually take your notebook with to on vacation? when have you got more time to play through all AU courses again than on holidays?

She knows what I'm like, she just doesn't know what I do at work all day (civ) while she's stuck at home with the kid!

I wish I had a notebook with a wireless connection, but I'm so low tech, I don't even have a cell phone.

working at MIT (T stands for technology) and you don't even have a mobile phone? wow

[jshelr]

the mobile phone allowed me to go from 60 hours per week connected to the office to 168 hours per week. What a great invention.

[sabrewolf]

if you're working 60 hours per week and have to be contactable all the time, you're probably paid quite well for that
and before mobile phones you still had the home phone that could be used. and don't forget that cellphones have that "off"-button

I sometimes don't even answer my home phone when I'm home, nor my work phone when I'm at work, so it makes little sense for me to get a mobile phone. But 168 hours/week available for PBEM makes all the sense in the world! What was I thinking?
