Maybe eighteen months at a pinch. Fashionably late, not that WW1 showing up at the last minute crap ...

It was nice of Hirohito to at least try to drop it off for them, even if he did lose points for his methods

Just like those bloody Nips to crash the party, eh?

Ironic, that because usually when nips appear, the party starts to get interesting ...

Isolationism usually stops anyway.

This is true. Nips, for example, like to travel in pairs.

I am now reliably informed that it was not a party.

Who knew, eh?

I think your informant is in error - it was a bona fide bun fight, from what I've been told.

According to my father there were never enough buns in the desert. That was one thing he liked about the American troops, they had buns. Actually, more to the point, they had whisky.

Wow racially charged, against "nips." I guess that is OK.

Are you advocating violence against Asians?????

That is so 1940's.

Most of the time I was talking about nipples ...

1940's nipples?

Yes, pointy ones.

As opposed to?

Blunt ones

I overreached myself.

Back peddle much????
