    Can you tell us what flavor the dragon cake was Tal? Just curious because I was checking out the site and noticed they had a lot of variety. I've also decided that I really have to make a cake that looks like a pizza.

    Flix: I have DOSbox, but had trouble with it because I didn't have the site with instructions ready...

    If I can remember to bookmark that tutorial I can reference it while using DOSbox and maybe then I can use the games I refer too.

    Hows your back Gnarf? You haven't mentioned it for a little while which I assume is a good thing.

    Wow, that dragon cake is awesome. :D It seems a shame to cut it and eat it.

    On P and R:
    Ofelix: What I'm interested in is why on earth did they assign the sound of П to the letter P? :p

    What exactly is the sound of "П"? :hmm:

    In other news, we just finished a Planet Earth marathon. We watched "Great Plains", "Ice Worlds", "Ocean Deep", and "Mountains"... Defiantly need to get the series on Blu-Ray once I finally decide to get a Blu-Ray player. :D

    П has the same sound as P in say pie or pool or price or place... :)
    Basically, in cyrillic alphabet, П is the same as P in latin (just like R in latin is the equivalent of P in cyrillic).

    There is also H in azbuka, which has the sound of N in alphabet, X in azbuka is the actual H sound (as in house or help) (there is no "x" (as in experience) sound in cyrillic as a single letter, afaik). What else... oh, yeah B. B has the sound of V in latin, the actual B (as in box) sounding letter being Б.
    Also C has the sound of S in cyrillic. Ц (or a similar letter - I'm using Serbian typing, other languages using cyrillic alphabets have different letters to an extent) is the letter that corresponds to C (as in cycle).

    An incomplete overview: (azbuka - alphabet) Б - B, Ц - C, X - H, H - N, П - P, P - R, C - S

    *hides from martaug's knowledge hunt* :p :)

    What if I just replace the book in my mind with a sword?

    Right now I wish I had a pair of vibrating electric heated slippers. That would be so nice.

    My back hasn't been as bad lately. I got a new mattress last week, so I'm not aggravating it when I sleep, but it still lets me know when I need to move and when I've been on my feet too long. I'm also better able to judge which pills to take when it does act up. It will be a thorn in my side until I lose more weight, and my lowest point recently has been 302...

    I found my bottle of wakeups which I thought I had lost! This is going to make the remaining two shifts at work much less of a pain... as much as this F'N job can be, that is.

    ION, I have a meeting with the bureaucrats at my former college to discuss the possibility of a return in architecture. The work/anger management therapy worked pretty well... and even though I hate the human race even more than before (if that's even possible), at least now I have enough self-control not to snap and lash out at anyone in my way like a trusty rattlesnake. And who knows, maybe this time I'll like the damn course. Maybe.

    And even better, I don't have to worry about those damned student housing -- I got a friend of mine who's looking to move out at just about the same time I'll be heading to college (assuming I do). Lots of LANs, booze and D2 on the horizon, methinks...

    It's hot. 30c+ at least. When you consider it was about 14 yesterday that's a fairly impressive increase.
