This is what I got:
Hello. You've reached David Menegay Hyundai, Rainbow City, Alabama. I'm sorry. We're closed. Jamie is a loser and went home early.

Well, I did it finally. I was having problems with my Mathor Duplexing XHD with Glagington drive. It kept cooking up around the 10.2.18 plex groove and the nedder wave would twist in the ether. I went to Best Buy and picked up a Lowden Plath Stellar Binker that would handle up to 18Tb of waggle before switching over to the sub-tank dropper. Which is nice, because, as we all know, 18Tb of waggle can gum up anyone's Grop-sink given enough time. The sub-tank is really just a built up Nix Zikkor that sounds simplistic, but when you add the Yttrium bath, it makes all the difference in the world.

I got blue, 'cuz I think it's purdy.

I little too much techy talk lately elsewhere?? :lol: :lol:

So how well does ripstop nylon hold back grizzly bears?

Much better if you reinforce the tiny holes with bacon grease. It also makes it more waterproof. :)

I will be taking bear spray and bangers along with me. There are lots of black and grizzly bears where we are going. I have seen many bears in the wild and have never had any troubles, though I usually am way into the back country where bears are still more afraid of us than we are of them.

Thanks. I noticed that they didn't have that in the English instructions, but they did have it in Akkadian, the language of Tiglath-Pileser IV of Assyria. Good thing I took that in Junior High.

Oh, I'm glad you caught that before ripping out and tossing 9/10ths of manual tabloid.

For the most part, follow the contours of the image itself. Work from the outside in. It's time consuming, but if you keep at it you'll start to see what works and what doesn't. I tend to be light handed with it, but you can choose whatever style suits you. Share your trails with us - I'd love to see them. :)

Okay thanks. When I get the nerve to try it I'll post it here. How long did that one take you?

Ive been wondering what the other IDs were. With Pekka's wording, I'd almost bet that all identities were posting on that thread.

I nominate you to ask Pekka to find out for all of us...anyone else say 'I'.:lol:

Reminds me of the agreement in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory (The old one...) The print keeps getting smaller and smaller and smaller.

MMm, bear spray? Similar in function to mosquito spray or mace?

And to think when I was in 7th grade in Ms. Dakkar's class thinking to myself, "Right. Like I'll ever need to know cuneiform when I grow up." :rolleyes:

Hmmm, wonder where I would find that in Illinois? I'm not too worried, we'll be around many other campers and I know they have cracked down on the stupidity of people encounters with the wildlife. They took a lot of opportunity away from the opportunist bears. And if it is the least bit chilly, he-who-did-not-grow-up-on-camping, will decide to hotel it instead.;)

Dan - I really like the microscopic fine print of the contract in tonight's TR's and the anatomically correct position of Jim's feet. Of course paranormal had me laughing big time.
