Pax Galaxia

[Locke]

Anyone here play Pax?

[mmeeshal]

Well, I for one have never heard of it. >.>

[Locke]

I don't really expect anyone to, but I figured it's worth asking.

Mkay.  I suppose that enforces a subject change.

[Talya]

I like Paxo...

 

the stiffing that is *goes in Turkeys* ;)

[Locke]

Zilch.  Dang it.  It's a word :( 

 

I've been wanting to use that word a lot lately.  I was really hoping it wasn't a word.

[el Nynaeve]

Which word, pax?

[Locke]

No, zilch.  Pax isn't a word.  Zilch is, though. :(

[mmeeshal]

ACTUALLY.... :D

Ha, I was about to do that too meesh. :D

 

I spent long enough learning about the Pax Romana. :P

I suppose now that I think about it, I do recall the word.  It's just that I'm not used to hearing it all alone.  Pax vobiscum I believe.  That was from a Stephen Lawhead book.
