8) Many mistkanely believe that Dholokhov was responsible for advising Henry Kissenger during the secret military bombings of Cambodia under the Nixion Administartion. This is patenly untrue, the two have met, but only briefly and informally. On the other hand, it is well known that Dholokhov and Robert McNamara had many closed-door meetings in the days before the Gulf of Tonken resolution was passed by the U.S. Congress. Both referred to these meetings as 'higly productive'.
Yeah, but you thought of the format. Which was great, since I've seen these damn tag survey's moving around SG like a virus and suddenly someone thought of something amusing to do with it.
'--Althought both Chris Sick and Dholokhov have been known to move about in the same covert military circles for many years, it's unknown whether or not the two men have actually met. One military historian reportdly possesses a series of Mojo-Wire fascimiles between the two men, while Chris Sick was helping to train the Hmong Secret Army for the CIA during the Indochina Secret War while Dholokhov was cordinating operations for Air America. The fascimiles apparently detail a long standing bet the two men had between them, as to who could violate more international laws in the course of their duties. It is unknown if they ever met to settle the bet, or who won, however the fascimiles appear to indicate that the prize of the bet was a Seventeen Year Old bottle of Eagle Rare American bourbon.'

Man you're weird. I laughed. I'm going to reread this after I get back from class and my brain is working. I suspect it will be even funnier then.
Re: the sea troll set -- oh man! I should so do that. I can hook little bits of dried seaweed in my hair and get a sharpened bone stuck through my nose and carry around a big ol' chunk of driftwood with which to pose menacingly. And literal fishnet tights... oh yeah baby, it will be the sexiest ever.
Though offical papal documents claim that Dholokov confessed moments before burning to death at the stake, many dispute this claim. Among thsoe that do are many noted historians and tenured professors, as well as the 'fringe' group made up of pagans who revere his teachings and magicans who claim he was a genius. The true story will most likely never be known as the only defenative accounts of his death were written either by Bishops of the Roman Catholic Church or his own disciples. Whatever the truth, Dholokov remains to this day, some six hundred years after his death, a controversial and intriquing figure.
When my sister hit her head and began to cry I pretend I was hurt and was crying so I wouldn't get in trouble. It was crazy too, cause we were waiting for our parents cause we were going out to dinner with my Grandma so we were dressed in real nice clothes.
