Greetings from rainy Winnipeg! 

I'm Tim and I just started listening to the Grogcast.  I've been wargaming since 1978 and contributing to the hobby with graphic design since around 2005.  My fav. game is probably the 4th edition of Russian Campaign. My first wargame was the old SPI game "CA".  I don't have much time these days for actually playing but I am hoping to carve out more time in the near future. Forward!

Welcome Tim! lotsa fun to be had around here!

I may be going out on a limb but I'm guessing that if I say 'Iroquois' you would respond with 'Orenda'. ;)

Welcome, avrotim!  Glad to have you with us.  The Grogcasts gets a little loosey goosey sometimes.  Hope you don't hold that against us ;)

Hi Tim.

Rainy Winnipeg? I always think of two things - snow and Guy Maddin (big fan) - Welcome aboard!
"I must not fear.
    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."  - Frank Herbert

I went to the mint in Winnipeg, but frankly the RCMP training facility in Regina was more interesting and of course there is a much better play on word with Regina than Winnipeg.  Although I am happy they got the Jets back so I guess there's that too.

Oh and welcome.

Welcome to the Grogs Tim. I've never been to Winnipeg but I once Pegged a girl named Winnie. Does that count? Happy to have you amongst us.

Bison hasn't been far enough South to know what Publix is...
