I'm not flying. Right arm is strong enough to support me
in that position. :-)
On the other hand... I guess I could fly if I went mad enough...

On yet another hand... that hammer might be a pair of baloons :)

            And it often works, especially if
           i use words :-)

those things just ignore what I am saying and go and do what they
want. (I often tell my plants not to die but they still insist
on withering up)

thanks, I'll look at it tomorrow (Or I guess it's today now!)

But the mouth looks wrong. And I'm pretty sure that I didn't have any
tranparencies...

llizard: you _had_ transparencies. They probabluy were created
         in the process of optimizing size of you gif.
         As for wrong looking mouth... well... I'll look into that
         once more...

brojek; I DID see your reply after all. (That's what comes of skimming
too quickly through all the previous posts. One misses things.)

And it clearly is suffering from peer pressure to be just
like everyone else. (Perhaps it had an electromagnet installed in

Hello brojek; I'm afraid I'm multitasking....

llizard [home] 9 Dec. 13:50, from: 216.154.18.190, blue
brojek; and I'm hopeless at multitasking; when I've finished, I'll try
to return to comment on the dangers of vacuuming a tree that has an
electromagnet installed.

llizard [home] 9 Dec. 14:12, from: 216.154.18.190, blue
brojek; unless, of course, you unplugged the tree first.

allow on the tree. There were a few extra ones, so I put them on the
tree. (One can NEVER have too many decorations on a tree, don't you
think?)   hahahahaahaha >%^7^^^7^^^

brojek; when you tried to fix that animation that was crashing NS3,
did you use a program to optimize it? Or did you optimize by hand?

brojek [email] 12 Dec. 17:22, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: no, you did not forget that :-)

brojek [email] 12 Dec. 17:23, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: I simply loaded the file into GIMP and saved it back.
         that's all. 

llizard [home] 12 Dec. 17:23, from: 216.154.9.251, blue
brojek; Then the ornaments shouldn't have fallen!! Perhaps you attached
your new ornaments with ordinary thread?

llizard [home] 12 Dec. 17:25, from: 216.154.9.251, blue
brojek; aha!  I asked someone else about what I had done wrong and he
apparently did the same thing. Very odd. GIMP seems to add transparencies
where there were none!  Just wondering.

I am a luddite and have been optimizing by hand, frame by frame

brojek [email] 12 Dec. 17:27, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: i guess there where simply too many ornaments.
       I did not add any other thread to hang them, I used yours :-)

brojek; what kind of toy? (glad to hear you have other entertainments as well)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:37, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; that is the kind we have too. It should work nonstop but, well,
you know....

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:38, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: and it's not the problem with hardware, they've screwed up
         something with routing. Lamasses.
  

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:38, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; our isp name is "idirect" and there are several people who
started calling it "indirect"

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:39, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; hmmmm. sounds sadly familiar. perhaps you are with idirect too?

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:39, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; the problems here started when the isp did an expansion and
"upgrade"

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:41, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: but well. enough of this complaining :-)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:42, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; quite. :^)  so skiing tomorrow?

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:43, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; which mountains?

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:44, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: my current coding toys are:
   1. http to irc gateway, allowing you to use irc client from
      behind http proxy.
   2. Adding multiplayer support to Wolfenstein 3D.

   last time I was playing with toy no. 1.

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:46, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: which mountains. hmm. don;t know english name :-)
         part of Carpatian mountains.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:49, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I am hopeless at the coding thing. (Whatshisname set up the
irc stuff that I rarely use.)

But I have my map of Europe out and will look up the Carpatian mountains...

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:52, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; Rats!!! It's not a relief map... I will have to do another
search. Where are the Carpatians in relationship to Poland, Czech
Rep, Germany, Ukraine, etc. etc...?

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:52, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: climbing rather. :-)
          I don't ski.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:54, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; Aha!! Romania...

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:54, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: Soutth of Poland, all of Czech, South-East of Germany,
         East edge of Ukraine. Most of Hungary even, If I'm not
         mistaken here.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:55, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I thought you skiied... (it was those little drawings of skiers
that made me think so) I know we discussed skiing at one time but I
have a terrible memory for facts.

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:56, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: I'll stick to Polish part, and maybe some Slovakian --
          beer's very cheap in Slovakia.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:57, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; Of course the mountains would extend beyond Romania.

I'm doing a search right now and have found a hit on

www.nerdworld.com

-love the name of the URL!

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 15:58, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: well, I've drawn those skiers. And that's all of my skiing :-)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 15:59, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; will you be climbing in snow? And do you do that kind of rock
face climbing?

brojek; (that's like my down hill skiers! - I think I might have mentioned
that I haven't downhill skiied since I was 10. And that is some time
ago.)

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:01, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: search something East of "Tatry" or "Tatra" then :-)

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:03, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: not many rock-walls there. Little lonely rocks - 6 - 15 meters
         high - yes. covered with snow and ice make pretty interesting
          targets. 

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:03, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I can't find a decent map online. And this is getting silly.
It would be SO much easier if I just went down one flight of stairs
to look at our book atlas of the world.

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:05, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: perfectly suited to one day excursions.
         you go 3 hours to reach them, play with them for
         for an hour ro two, eat some dinner (hehe) on top,
          and return home becouse it's getting dark.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:05, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I have the book....

Do you have spikes on your climbing boots?

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:07, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I found the mountains. (The stupid English changed the name to
"Carpathian". I don't know why those idiots had to go changing names!
It's not like there is that much difference)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:11, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; It sounds like perfect sort of climbing. (especially the
reward at the top) My atlas doesn't have Tatry. Where is it in
relationship to Krakow?

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:12, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; I'm guessing south? (My atlas is old and has Czech Rep and 
Slovakia as one country)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:15, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; anyway it sounds like just the thing. We are sticking around
for the New Year. Whatshisname has to work until 31st and again on 3rd.

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:17, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
llizard: no. I don't use any equipment. I only have six meters
         of rope. Well, and good boots, they only slide on
         pure, mirror-like ice.

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:20, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; that is the most fun kind of climbing. I call it scrambling.
I did a fair amount like that in the Rockies near Banff and Jasper.
(when I lived in Edmonton and could get there in under one day)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:21, from: 216.154.6.232, blue
brojek; but I never did any winter climbing. The Rockies are covered
in snow in winter. I guess if I had gone, it would have been to ski.

See you the next time. I'm horribly jealous!

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:25, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
                               ,
llizard: Direct south from Krakow.  Slovakia is the eastern half of
         former Czech-Slovakia.

brojek; It looks QUITE mountainous on the Slovakian side. Are you going
to Gorski Park or Pieninski Park? (Sorry if those names are all wrong
and have been changed. It's this old atlas)

brojek [email] 28 Dec. 16:30, from: 212.160.114.123, brown/yellow
bye, m'dear :)

llizard [home] 28 Dec. 16:30, from: 216.154.6.232, blue

your climbing legs if you have too much alcohol at the top.

llizard: Gorski Park translates directly into "mountain <the kind of thing they set up in yellowstone>" :-)))
         it's half of the name :-)
         well, try to find "Beskid" or "Beskidzki Park" on your map.
