And so I am fifty now...

Celebrated that by working, a heap of work, even some conversion within DSS (of what into what? may it be from them sheets into dbfs, must have done that long ago and now something appeared... don't see any comments, just editing session logged). Aha, here's a comment: „conversion of DSS tables from standalone into integrated into UniJewel 0.99“

Talking with David, asks about the DSS manual, is it done, yup it is but... when reports are run, there's a tickbox to decide whether to run detailed or just summary, and we run detailed too each and every time, I better remove that tickbox, do a fresh screenshot and put that into the manual, eh?

Okay do so but give it to me as it is at the moment... but why is it all in blue? Well that's my color scheme, they can pick another for themselves if they want and it will be in other colors, whatever they pick. No no no revert that to default. Okay, I usually do that when screeningshooting the forms, just forgot this time. Okay let it go for now, but in the future. Yes yes I'll put the favorite american color back just like I did before, check the old manuals.

We use Yahoo's messenger for chat, ie. its protocol. Myself got fed up long ago to keep two or three chatterboxes in parallel, I get completely lst with what's where in each of them, so I installed Trillian and do everything from it. There I mentioned I should access Valerie's machine to make some directories, but that didn't happen because we got elbow deep into a dispute of how to make the DSS even more automatic, to better separate what Melissa and Barbara were doing and... hill of details, from 10:00 to 13:00 (his 19:00).

Boća asks about some dietary supplements of certain kind, supposed to accelerate the consumption of excess carbohydrates in the body.

If that's ephedrine based, screw that. They banned them her a couple of years ago, becuae the regular consumers started suiciding a tad too often. At least their period of overall upset didn't last.

And for the nose it's indispensab.e Now they began to make something based on oxy-something (oksiklin, if you ask me - just google oxyclean), which has only one sideeffect - [it] doesn't work. For three weeks I peeled my eyes ofer shop stalls, division OTC pharmacy, until I found two tiny bottle of the effedrine [kind]. That's house reserve now.

With ephedrine the trick is in the dose. A drop or two here and there is okay; the quantities which went into the so-called „auxilliary preparations“ were just accumulating and it's no miracle they had so many cases.

...

That's Sloba's legacy to us - necessary spice, four characters upright: meat :)

As a doktorac [doktorica is a doctor's wife, so analogously...] I can say that a certain amount of proteins of animal origin needs to enter the organism for it to function normally.

And to wiseshitters who justify vegetariansm with Disney (i.e. how can we eat meat when that animal looks at you just so cutely)... and how many grains of wheat must be killed for a loaf of bread, eh?

...

That kind of plantivore kitsch goes to my balls. Imitation this, imitation that. How come nobody gets the idea to make imitation fruit salad out of kidneys, or a potage of trotters?

...

And, um, yes, I eat only the herbivore meat :)

Further, „Have a bicycle again now, but the problem is that there's nowhere to go to with it. Everything is too far away, such is urbanism. Residential end here, shops there, distance ohooooy. I get it out twice a year. But I didn't get fat - house with upstairs, and every now and then I forget something on the other level. And what neighbor will say now about my peanuts, is true... (he didn't remember, so I had to add) ...about me being on one single drug, peanuts roasted in shell, and I keep it downstairs, while my office is upstairs in the bedroom, and I swore to take no more than two pods at a time from the bag. So if I really want it, down the stairs, two pods, up the stairs. I can regularly report that as a senior student I weighed 79 to 80kg, now it's about 81.“.

(typed this so that every š,ć,đ came out as if in juski... must have had to switch to american keyboard while connecting to UniJewel's server through Citrix, and forgot to switch back)

Twonyisxth: Don't know whether this was broken through already, but the fuck for mskb search is to never use it's own local search, but rather the Gugao, with site:mskb.microsoft.com (or whatever the url was) added after the search string, and just drive. Gugao has a better index on their sites than the m$ itself ever had :).

One thing I got from (... 4 words...) various exotic cookboks we collected, and other sources, the asian cuisine is, basically, the art of making a pie out of nothing, a skill to make do with what can be had.

What one said, why is that shark's tail such a specialty? Because the poor made it up to a specialty level - it is known who gets the good parts of the shark, and who had to be happy to get at least the tails.
