Sacred North American Fortune Cookie Reads:
You may love the small ones but win the big ones
Blood swirls in the water, mixed with bourbon and bullion. (Don't ask me - I'm making this stuff up as I go along.) But one thing I do know is that I'm definitely having a hard time putting my finger on the currents swirling underneath this one.
The Western Canadian provinces are awash with intrigue as Heartland takes Quebec's aid one turn after stabbing the French. Cuba makes their move on Peru in the south, and Texas abandons southern aspirations to stake a claim in Missouri. Definitely lots of action..
Three retreats resulted - one each to New York, Peru and Heartland. Deadline for Summer 2003 retreats will be set for Saturday, January 26th (11:59 PM GMT). Please give me a holler if you spot any errors.
Cheers!
