The difference in severity appears to have been marked – while the first mass graves typically contain between 8 and 20 bodies, the second group were larger and held 20-40, implying that up to twice as many corpses needed disposing of at any given moment."<br /><br />izzithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12339789789959886545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-50260291384767184072012-08-15T22:31:37.545-04:002012-08-15T22:31:37.545-04:00J: Thanks!

Third Reich, I recall being a particularly fun one, if a little lengthy. I was already interested in history, but playing these games starting in 7th grade intensified the interest.<br /><br />K: They do make bath/dusting powder for mice (small animals) apparently. But no doubt your eco-friendly wash is far superiour to the commercial brands.<br /><br />I have the book that I quoted from. Mostly it is just localized disasters, so they are not very relevant here.<br /><br />Having a deadpan sense of humor helps bring it all into focus.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-67106657900980839962012-08-15T15:43:18.090-04:002012-08-15T15:43:18.090-04:00bahahahahahahah! this was super funny before i rea...bahahahahahahah! this was super funny before i read PP's comment! oh Russell - where do you come up with this stuff?!?!?!!?<br /><br />needless to say, i Do bathe all of our vermin regularly. i use no chemicals - only environmentally friendly and trusted cleaning products - lemon and/or vinegar, baking soda and water!!!

But maybe it was just because they were dirty and smelly - which by the standards of the day would take some work.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-78624692712530880012012-08-15T05:41:45.564-04:002012-08-15T05:41:45.564-04:00Another good reason Kymber needs to read for getti...Another good reason Kymber needs to read for getting rid of vermin!!!<br /><br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.com
