Good. Now take a look at Meetup.com and find some groups to join, even for stuff you're already into (and if I recall, you're a pretty big "Stargate" fan, correct?) My favorites are the ones for bar-hopping and going to concerts. Right now, I am based part-time in the Washington DC area, and every time I come up to DC, I attend events where I RSVPed on Meetup beforehand.

I just noticed, while looking that the page for Black Ops 2, that some of the characters will be wearing Rhodesian Bush Camo.







I bet those guys will be terrorists in one way or another, so that camo pattern isn't really an appropriate choice

Isn't that supposed to be Jonas Savimbi? I remember hearing that Angola was one of the game's locations, but I had no idea it was during the civil war days.

How awesome, yet politically uncorrect, would it be to have a game where you start out in the SADF/Rhodesian Army fighting ANITA and then get hired by Excutive Outcomes?

It's UNITA, not ANITA. Also, would it really be all that politically incorrect? Savimbi was an opportunist and a con artist who started out as a disciple of Mao Zedong, and then cozied up to the apartheid South African regime and Washington's neo-conservatives when he realized he could gain greater international legitimacy (and money) by making himself into an anti-communist. When the Angolan government hired Executive Outcomes to help them fight UNITA in the 1990s, I don't think too many liberals felt much sympathy for Savimbi and his forces, regardless of how much they loathed the ex-SADF guys who made up EO's leadership. (note that I am assuming you associated political correctness with liberalism; forgive me if I am mistaken)
