    In Le Roman de la momie, the Pharaoh appears to be perticulary egocentric, thinking being in love with Tahoser justify killing his officers who fail to find her and then kidnapping her from Ra'hel and Poeri's house after someone discover her, and this is without him failing to consider the power...

  5. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

  10. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    I discovered this game exactly two weeks ago, one Friday, and I've managed to get, on Easy, a deadlocking of the EC with Douglas 1860 and, on Normal, a win with Nixon/Lodge and Rockefeller, McKinley 1896, Truman 1948, Nixon/Agnew 1968 and Humphrey/Muskie. I also won, on Normal, with both...

  17. Confederacy and Union gun control laws

    Also, I bet whites would have an easier access to guns in places with an huge Black population; indeed, I could see, at times, mandatory - some New England still have laws mandating gun carrying because of attacks from natives; here, they would be faced with slave revolts and unrest from free...
