Last night in the AvA Arena, and wifey walks over to my computer...

[twitchy]

Mr Fork, women speak a different form of English than we do, sort of like feminine legalese.
After reading your transcript, I've come to the conclusion that what your wife was really saying was something akin to... "I have a vagina."
To which you replied, "HUH? I'm playing the game."
And of course she concluded with, "Me and my Vagina are going to go read a book."
I would anticipate wife ack soon, might want to to learn some evasive manuevers and stick stirring techniques, sounds like you're going to need them soon.

In that case he may be stick stirring alot if he has nowhere to land.

Her Lioness   never understood the joy to be gained from online combat flying - so I divorced her.

Great story!  Unfortunately, my wife uses my flight time to create "agreed" upon to-do lists...something like this (I have on headphones):

"Zero7, check the Tempy...its comin up fast"

           "That's right, our anniv IS comin up fast...I would like a new minivan so I will go pick it out"

"Roger that...thats a great move" (Zero7 cleared the Tempy with a barrel roll)

            "I have ordered a new VISA card too...with a 15K credit limit...I hope you don't mind"

"I got it....its a bit high for me....can you take care of it?" (talking to TnDep seeing a NIK at 12K)

            "Sure honey, I will be glad to have the credit line decreased...what do you think, ten thousand?"

"Im thinkin 8K.....we've got more options there" (While telling MUZIK that the two 51D's inbound will be out of E comin up at us from 12 oclock low)

           "Honey, one last thing...my parents are comin into town for Thanksgiving...they will need our bed so we will sleep in the other room ok?"

"Geezus tapdancin c**rist.....I'm gettin roped!!  Little help here please????" (raising my voice at 87Gunny, Rowdy1, Etec, xxxJCxxx, Crow, and Thrash99 as they watch me getting hung up by Klipper and TA57x)

           "HONEY!!  THAT IS SOOO RUDE!! THOSE ARE MY PARENTS AND THEY ARE ENTITLED TO A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP WHILE THEY ARE HERE!!!"

Putting down my headphones while my wife is walking out of the study

"Honey....what?"

         "Remember, don't say we didn't talk about this!"

Changeup sits there with his mouth open gawking at the doorway that used to have my wife standing in it....my daughter said mommy has a surprise for me when I get back in town today ...did I actually agree to those things?

After one particularly long and exciting engagement where the advantage ebbed and flowed, and a despairingly hopeless  situation was turned into glorious victory, I exclaimed loudly:

      "WoooooHooooo!~ Yeeehaaaaa!~ ..... Damn!~ Getting that kill was better than SEX!~"

Life with my wife has never been the same.   

[Mister Fork]

She's a character aright and smarter than the average bear.  Wifey also knows a bunch about aircraft - she's a flight attendant and has been flying for some time and knows more about Aces High than she would like to.

  fantastic you should become a writer I almost felt like I was in the plane with you 

Last night while I was flying, my wife came over to see what the commotion was about - the screen was looking like I was flying through a black fog bank with loud sounds of flak impacts and the odd crash of something breaking.  We had an interesting conversation that sounded like a Gilmore Girls episode.

"What's all those black little clouds?" she asked

"Black death - flak"

"You know, that plane was probably flown by 19-20 year olds who were scared out of their wits."

"Japs"

"Fine, Japanese boys. Is the terror any different?"

"It's all about immersion"

I hopped into the bomb site to re-calibrate before my drop.

"What's this?"

"bombsite" (calibrating)

"are those the carriers?"

"Yep"   At this point, my lead bomber explodes (it must of been on fire) and I'm suddenly in the next plane.  You can see my former lead plane exploding with wing parts and other debris raining on the other planes in formation with loud bangs from the impacts.

"Did you just blow up?"

"My lead bomber did"  - back into the bombsight..  Background is just crazy as the plane is being shaken like a toddler with a bug in a jar.  I'm trying to calibrate but I just can't get a view because of the flak.  I decide to change tactics and hop back into the pilot seat.

"Why are you diving?"

"Change of plans."

"Are you commiewazine..um... what do you call it?"

"Kamikaze - maybe. I can't get a clear shot to calibrate my bombsite. So we're now dive bombing."

Now all the ships in the CV group have opened up their lazer cannons on me, suddently, my right bomber explodes, in the message bar, states 1Duke1 shot me down for the 'second' time.  Ruh roh - dukie's in the 5 inch.  The first was no flak death.  I should of been paying closer attention to the message bar

"Crap"

"What?"

"Dukes in the 5 inch."

"Who?"

"Duke" - I hear a loud smack from another 5" impact and switch to external view with the typical parts flying off sound

"your plane is missing part of your tail"

"I know" another smack and I bring up the damage list

"a lof of your systems are red. Is that bad?"

"Yes"

"Is this a now a Kamakzie dive?"

"Yes"

"Are those young boys in your plane going to die?"

"What?" - now I'm in a full fledged non-stop dive.  I can hear the wings creaking.

"You know, the japanese boys flying your bomber?  Oh, there goes a wing"

"I know"

"You're plane is falling apart"

"I know" - another smack from the 5".

"your plane is on fire"

"I know" - I'm off target and I know that I'm never going to hit with around 1500 feet left. I decide to eject

"Did you get thrown out of your plane?"

"No, I ejected"

"Like that?"

"Like that."

"Wow, that ship is big."

"Its an aircraft carrier."

"The one you were trying to bomb?"

"The one"

"So what do you do now?"

"Swim for home." - I land in the water

"You're funny.  This game is boring.  Oh look, is the carrier going to run you over?"

"Yep"

"I'm off to read a book.  Enjoy the carrier being imprinted on your forehead"



Isn't this game AWESOME when our better half's nag us while we play?
