  1. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    The first in a series of nine misfortunate All-Stars.
  2. 2018 Presidential Election

    Also, sad news soon to report about former Governor Fowler (RIP).
  3. 2018 Presidential Election

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (but I'm not going through the whole rigamarole): List of presidents of the United States who were Freemasons Since the office was established in 1789, 45 persons have served as President of the United States. Of these, 15 (one third) are known to have been...

    Some links to previous textwalls: 2015 by area11 2016 by CannedTech 2017 by Sasalele According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that someone should be kicked for doing the exact same thing as three others who suffered no apparent punishment and all shared in the same, usually...
  5. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    Yeah, and I would never do that. But I feel a newbie might not understand the full culture here, and a softer hand would've been more correct in explaining why we don't do that here, since it is very prevalent as a meme elsewhere, and many of us had more of a chuckle than an eye roll over that...
  6. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    It's a very common copypasta and funny meme to post the Bee Movie transcript. I got a kick out of it, and so did 24 other people, but I guess CalBear doesn't get the joke, and Mr. Memer got a real kick out of it. C'est la vie.
  7. 2018 Presidential Election

    I have some old PMs with @Prometheus_2300 from early 2012 when we were going over the Senate and Governor lists for New Jersey and I bandied about names. Prometheus wanted a Democratic governor to fulfill the post-Keane slot of 1986-1990 (and a then-unknown Republican from 1990-1994) and I...
  8. HBO's Gaul

    Giovanni Calgano doesn't seem to do much beyond Italian films and television these days, and at 50 years of age, is probably a little too old to play a realistic Vercingetorix (said to be about 30 when he fought Caesar, although we know nothing of his early life.)
  9. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    Harold Stassen, 34th President of the United States (1945-2001)

    Also, it looks like in Clark's first term, he added 35 new states. Libertarian imperialism at its finest.
  11. 2018 Presidential Election

    Jeff Haffley coincidentally served in the same district as OTL Tom Foley (the Spokane district of Western Washington).

  13. 2018 Presidential Election

    I can't find if it has ever been discussed in thread, but my belief in PMs at the time was that he had passed away from a sudden illness, and that he was too ill to attend the Newman inauguration (and passed sometime that evening). I also felt that his death may have caused some of the...
  14. Books on Medieval Germany?

    Kind of an odd thing to be tetchy about. Real History is the foundation on which an accurate alternate history can be constructed.
