For your information CB I do the turn electronically in my head, and upload it on to my laptop for communication to you. That is how advanced my playing style is, also means I can read the code and see your every move. [;)]

Alright then, Neo-when you're done using your body as an alien capacitor and taking either blue or red pills, tell the Merovingian to stop looking at my moves. It's bad form. Agent Smith will have to be notified. [:-]

When I first ate squid as a kid I was violently ill. I've never been able to eat it since then.

How do you feel about herring, Per? [:)]

Herring is fine.

Being who you are, I don't know if this is some kind of joke that went over my head? [:'(]

I found the trick with jagged edges is to work with the images in large size (as you have with the image above) and only shrink it down to the final size when you are ready to paste it down over the background layer.


Hi Reg, thanks for that mate... I did try this, and made the work about 3x times the size needed, but when I down-sized the image, it was blurred.
I might have misunderstood, but you should not actually re-size the image to be bigger. Just view it in a higher % magnification. That way you can hit individual pixels along the edge to be what you want.

Hi all,
ORIGINAL: DivePac88

Morning tithe... mild (14C) hazy morning, and going to be another warm one.

Snow is now falling for full day... no stop predicted for few days... at least 10+ cm of snow already on roads (and much more on cars and roofs)...

Des-you got that turn done yet, mate?

[sprayed a mouth-full of coffee over the keyboard and screen]

Asked my Chinese toaster about this one I did, as my toaster is very wise. It's reply was that 'Chickens are very impatient birds, especially when they are worried' [:D]

....or in terms the chicken could understand....."BAK-BAKAAAWK"......hope I'm getting the pronunciation right.

Does anyone besides me feel like our medical community is abusing antibiotics for simple ailments which our immune systems should be able to deal with naturally in most cases which will invariably result in an increased rate of mutation among the common viruses...a rate of mutation which we are already falling behind....and will sooner or later result in a strain or multiple strains of common viruses which our medical science cannot currently treat, leaving us in the same boat as sufferers of various poxes hundreds of years ago, i.e. hope and pray that you are among the 20-25% of the population who, for various reasons, are able to pull through?

Onime-usually we use punctuation in our sentences in English to break up a thought. Otherwise, one's point gets lost in 75 word sentences ("run-on" sentences). So, after reading your comment, I have just one question-whadzithuh?
No? OK, then, I'll just go put on my tinfoil hat now.

OK then...

Chickens are also humorless birds. This can be easily confirmed by taking one look at their beady little eyes.

Good Morning Dudes [8D]

Just wanna leave this here GO PATS!

Death? Will the team be decimated if they lose? I'd actually watch it.

Yeah. Hey, wouldn't that mean that Brady's supermodel squeeze would be 'available'? Hmmm...maybe I should watch the game too...[;)]

Decimation, by definition, means that he has a 90% chance of surviving, so the odds arnt that great.

CB I hope you're little boy is not too bad, and the flu passes quickly. [:)]

Also I was wondering what type of bird flu it is (harmful to Emus), and can it be communicated though Pbem turn transfer? [&:]

I dont know, but I bet that the symptoms include spitting coffee at the computer screen.

Don't worry, I've had the files scanned for viruses. [fnar, fnar...]

Don't think the boy has flu-he just had a tummy ache. Right as rain now.

By the way-that turn? Done? [:'(]

Most illnesses are cured by ice cream and/or bacon. [:D]

Listen mate-if you bollocks up the turn and short out your computer by spitting coffee on it, I'm not redoing the turn. [:-] That's on you.

For your information CB I do the turn electronically in my head, and upload it on to my laptop for communication to you. That is how advanced my playing style is, also means I can read the code and see your every move. [;)]

Emu Mnemonic.....its like that move but with better acting.

So, I'm doing our weekly grocery shopping at yon Piggly Wiggly. Working my way through the produce area when my eye notes a blonde woman in a nice tight skirt, with a nice figure. She's wearing tall leather boots-the kind that come up just below the knee. Between the top of the boot and the bottom of the skirt is the back of the knee that's accentuated with this type of clothing. It's hypnotic and I find myself staring.

She senses the staring and turns around. She's a nice looking woman. I'm caught ogling.

She speaks to me: "Oh, hi!".

I, being an idiot, cannot figure out where I know her from and meekly return the same lame greeting.

"Hi, how are you?", I lamely offer.

Suddenly my shopping list is critically important and I bury my nose back into it. She moves off. I realize that she is the mother of one of the kids in my boy's karate class. So, me (perv) gets caught ogling the legs of a karate mom. Great...[8|]

It's not 'dorky' enough that I, a full grown man, am still actively engaged in karate. Now I've got kids' parents get to see me dance around in my pajamas twice a week. Sigh...

I think you need to stop reading the World's Worst AAR. I think Mandrake is rubbing off on you...and not in a good way. [:D]

Not really. Herring is one of the things I absolutely refuse to eat. The "strong dislike" (shall we say) was caused by spending my childhood watching my dad literally eviscerate the smelly things at the dinner table. So naturally, when you mentioned being violently sick, I thought of herring. [:D]

Since i don't write an AAR I might say it in here instead - GO ME! [;)]

Believe it or not but the bright point in my campaign is currently the Chinese theatre.

I just completely destroyed one IJA Div, another is about to be surrounded and destroyed.

Add to that the forced retreats of six other IJA divisions and the Chinese have gone from critical to confident.

If the Chinese weren't so damn brittle in spring 42 I would go on the offensive. Doing that right now would be a good chance of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory though.

Ah, ok. Much the same as squid for me then. Just the smell of it makes me want to puke.
