Hi, Victor
>>>
***Your examlpe shows one thing that concerns me more and more.
It's not only language... looks like everything becomes
simplified and unified. I obtain standartized characters,
stories, tricks and, yes, language. "Fuck you" as a (lowest:)
common denominator for some basic emotion...As they used to say at Phys-Tech - "you can't fight entropy".
Eventually it takes over.
<<<Phys-Tech's... I spent good five years working in P-T
'environment'. Learned from 'em a LOT. Kinda perfect
complement for my mech-mat basics.
>>>
***Actually, I don't care much, since there are TONS of old *quality*
movies out there to enjoy. :)You are right, that's how I feel too. Every once in a while there is
a good new one too. And it is usually easy to tell what is worth watching
so I don't usually spend any hard-earned tugriks on trash. I have friends
early-scouts doing fine work.
<<<I'd LOVE your friends... mostly I have to walk through garbage myself.
16 tugriks rental and 1.5 - 3 hours of my valuable time per film. :(Old stuff is MUCH more comfortable in this sence. Just see-buy-fly,
all hits & no misses.

***As for dacha, it was cool indeed. "Dachka v Kratovo, Volga-matushka...".
It's near Istra indeed. :) I was done with potatoes in September,
so this time there was just *snow* digging.Oh, sorry, I forgot... It is still t-shirt and sandals here. Well, maybe
not every day... How far from Moscow is that?
<<<~60 km from Kreml, :) ~1.5 hours car or ~2.5 municipal from my apartment.
>>>
***I've heard that Tula is a good place to do
gun-searching.Any tubes made there? I guess I need an excuse to go there.
<<<Afaik, no. Well... waitaminute... hmmm... metal processing...
"I've told they know some tricks to make our gear cases look
EVEN better! Have to check it *myself*." ;-) Happy hunting!
>>>
We are having the Thanksgiving here. I take this moment to
thank God (whomever that might be) for everything good here
and in your land, and everywhere else. Join us tomorrow in
gulping some icey-cold vodka.
<<<Thank you (and God, of course). "Okhotnichya" is waiting... cheers!
regards, gnat
