Captains Log: Earth date something something
*Being chased by some German pilots Things are getting rough the forward thrust of my plane is starting to get my woozy, might take something for that when i get back.
*Shot down the enemy plane there was much rejoicing, however it seems at his last moment of life more came to his aid.
*Close, I almost shot down my own planes tail, need to be more careful or i might not be around to leave these logs anymore.
*Moving through the sky with all these barrel rolls makes your head spin seeing the places below looks so weird.
*Oh no, i shot down the tail of my plane, i am going down, lights fading, things going black, cant see anything, death! *gasping for air*

War Games
As you know as things progress more and more things are made to "push" the envelope to see just how far they can go without pissing everyone off. Needless to say games are a very big part of that, such as, war games like Modern Warfare, Metal of Honor, ext. With war comes violence and with violence comes complaining. With games having this violence in it there has been a huge debt on the "allowance" of violence in video games. First i would like to point out that I am sort of but not committed to violent games. Almost no one should argue fantasy violence like some final fantasy game should not be taken to seriously because, hey its fake. But with the coming of more realistic games such of modern warfare comes this argument. Most arguments come from the parents of kids playing these games saying "its to violent" , "its to real" , "its to blah blah blah" well my argument back to them is IF YOU DO NOT LIKE IT THEN DO NOT LET THEM PLAY IT. Not only that but people are trying to dodge the fact that the world has war in it if we try and ban these we are just banning the ignorance of our people. its more like they are saying "we killed massive amounts of people but that never actually happened". I for one am a firm believer in the non-spoon-fed history of the world or destroying what actually happened. Do we want our children to become ignorant to the ways of the world? NO i say! However I am not for like 3 year old playing war games because they have not matured enough yet to contemplate it, which is why THERE ARE RATINGS FOR GAMES as i go back to my previous bold statement. It is like they are buying their child a gun and not expect them to use it. It is very dumb how people go about trying to express their opinions when in actuality most are a bunch of hypocrites who just want to whine and have it their own way. Wow, that was a harsh sentence there, maybe i should cut back the rant just a tad. As I am sure you know their are people who picket or boycott just because other people are doing it. It is mob physiology and i am tired of how much it is used in today society. With the press and news trying to have their views on the world so that others would follow it no mater how blind they might be in that since. And then their are the people in the world who just want to piss everyone they can off so they try on whatever topic it is and go on the opposing side. So in conclusion before i go off even more i am for violence in games however i am also for people not being an idiot.
letters of war
With this worlds vast assortment of communication it is hard to think that not to long ago we did not have such heavy means of convenient communication, such as, in World War I the solders had to send letters to their loved ones for any sort of communication. This about it it might take 6-8weeks of time for just a simple hello! With some cases being the letters never being sent out in the first place. The solders loved ones might even get a letter saying oh I am fine do not worry about me and in fact he was already dead 4 weeks before the letters arrival! Its hard to grasp how amazing that is. Still letters are a big moral boost for the troops. Receving a letter on your well being is usually well accepted. It can help show that someone your fighting for cares about you which in my opinion is one of the best sorts of moral boosts you can get.
