Compared to the wisdom and gentleness of cats, any human being is without the slightest of chances!

Danke Dir, Andi,

Ich wusste gar nicht, dass man das gute oberfränkisce Zwicklbier auch in Schleswig-Holstein genießt!

Es grüßt Dich
Michael

Yes, Samuel,


I am back in the saddle and acting as the lone rider again (so to speak)!

Thank you so much for your nice email, and I am very glad that the high-rez Battle of Alesia images have finally reached you!


Best,
Michael

Dear Machtlock! I'll contineu in English allowing all other friends here to follow us. As a born Bavarian-Suebi I have inherited the beer predilections of my birthregion. I really like classical bavarian and frankonian beers and I'm really lucky to get some view nice Bavarian beers at our nearby supermarket


I wish you all the best and really hope to meet you in good health in the near future!

Yay!!! Michael at last you're home here!!!!
I have been remiss in not adding my own elated welcome back, and it is so exciting to see you posting and adding to the powerfully important work you do and share with us. Over these years you have given us so much in your breathtaking illustrated threads showing us wonderful art depicting the weaponry you have spent a lifetime collecting and studying in depth that even few museums ever achieve.
To simply say you have been 'missed' here would be one of the worlds greatest understatements, as would any words to adequately say how glad I am you are back , but I am trying

Godspeed Michael, on your recovery, and in the continuation of your monumentally important work on these magnificent arms.

As always,
Jim
