Killbox810 aka Steve is from Ludlow Mass. Box is not married with no kids so this means if you need a partenr to game with he has all the time in the world! When not gaming or chasing the opposite sex he spends his time working in a restaurant.

Steve is a huge Patriots fan and loves all games and sports. Some of his favorite genres of games are first person shooters (W@W, MW2 and Halo). He is also known to get down on some Civ/Rev from time to time. As I remember it he is even pretty decent at Tiger Woods.

Make sure and add him to your friends if you don't already have him on there. ]]> Sun, 23 May 2010 16:45:59 +0000 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3424 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3417

Yesterday Nick and Tasha Lavers became the proud parents of London. She was born at 4:23pm. She was 19.5in and weighed 6lbs 3.5 oz.

Nick and I were talking Sunday night around 10:30pm when he just disappeared. He came back and said he was sorry for up and leaving. He said he though Tasha's water broke. A few minutes later he said they were going to the hospital. I followed up with him a few times and the progress was pretty slow until mid morning yesterday when they gave her some baby-come-fast medicine. Just a few hours later.... BAM! little London was borne!!]]> Tue, 11 May 2010 22:37:48 +0000 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3410 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3362

Thanksgiving in the US marks the start of the month of over consumption and indulgence. Still, it’s also a good time for a little quiet contemplation of what’s behind those thanks we’ll be giving—the things for which we’re grateful.

It has been a rough year for most people and I am truly grateful just for being here, still standing. I am blessed for the people I have in my life that constantly challenge me to be a better person. I am gratified of the relationship that I have with my beautiful daughter who amazes me every day by the great person she is becoming. I am thankful to have met and work with Mean (Mike), Kaotic (Erick) and Koldfuzion (Tony). Without the help of these three guys we would not have such a wonderful place to connect with each other. I am indebted to each and every one of you whom I have built strong and lasting relationships with.

Please share your comments of what you are thankful for. How do you express gratitude to the people and things that help you make it through your busy day?]]> Thu, 26 Nov 2009 17:24:41 +0000 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3174 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3148
But the Nov. 11 Veterans Day commemoration began as a day to celebrate peace — the silencing of the guns of World War I, "The Great War," which claimed the lives of more than 15 million soldiers and civilians.

On that day in 1918, at the 11th hour, Germany signed an armistice with the Allied Powers — including the U.S., France, Britain, Japan and Italy — ending major hostilities in a war that nearly wiped out a generation of men.

A full peace was concluded the next year in France at the Palace of Versailles, and the first Armistice Day was proclaimed and celebrated by President Woodrow Wilson on the anniversary of the ceasefire: Nov. 11, 1919.

It was fully established by Congress as a legal holiday in 1938.

But Armistice Day honored veterans of only World War I, essentially ignoring millions of soldiers who served in peacetime or fought in World War II, Korea and other engagements.

So in 1954 Congress extended the holiday to honor all vets, giving it the name Veterans Day, which it has kept for 55 years.

Today, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 23.2 million veterans in the United States. That includes 2.6 million who served during World War II, 2.8 million who served in the Korean War, 7.8 million in the Vietnam War, 5.2 million in the Gulf War and about 1.7 million who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Nearly 120,000 are still stationed in Iraq, and about 68,000 will be deployed in Afghanistan by the end of the year, according to the Census.

Just one American veteran who served in World War I is still alive: 108-year-old Frank Buckles, who drove ambulances in England and France after enlisting at the age of 16. Buckles also fought in World War II and was taken prisoner by the Japanese.

Thank you to my friends and relatives that have answered the call to serve our great nation! Happy Veterans Day!]]> Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:42:59 +0000 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3148 http://www.shadowvipers.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3116
