Hi, Victor
>>>
***That's almost forgotten art, so I'm convinced now. Ohh btw, I couldn't
find *Rawney* in my dictionary as well. Please, translate it po-Russki.
It is predskazatel', or yasnovidets. None of my dictionaries had it, not
even the Galperin or Muller. My American associate didn't know it either.
The much more common word is 'seer' - it is a synonym.
<<<Or 'providets'... provider? :) Thanx, I feel better now. Hey... Huskins
played in Cotton Club, right?I still can't find it here, but there are two or three BIG shops left
unvisited yet.>>>
***Unfortunately, I can't remember drama now (but there were a few of VERY
good ones in 80th). Working on it...
<<<Ummm... "Winter Cherry" = "Zimnyaya Vishnya". I remember I liked it... but
I forgot, whether it was melo- or just drama. And of course, I forgot
whether it was made in 70s or 80s. :)
>>>
***With comedy it's somehow easier. Continue your hunt for Okhota. :) I hope
you have seen the big three: "Garage", "Ironia Sud'by", "Beregis' Avtomobilja".
If not, just get these. Then there was "Hi I'm your aunt" (="Zdravstvujte,
ja vasha tetja").Well, I may be young, but I am not THAT young. I saw all of these back in Russia. Fine
movies, for sure.
<<<I just had to be sure that you're familiar with *basic* stuff.
Kinda exams... ;-) "Student Khomenko, what did XX congress of
CPSU say about Maxwell theory?"
>>>
My wife is a programmer with one HUGE financial institution. I suspect more
problems have been created while trying to "fix" the potential Y2K ones.
Personally, I don't expect much to happen at all.
<<<I dunno... I'm not a rawney. :) Digital clipping can be extremely
unpleasant in some cases though.
>>>
***"One drink in the morning - free the whole day". = "Vypil s utra - ves'
den' svoboden".It is mostly milk-and-cornflakes in the mornings here.
<<<That's definitely better for day work.
>>>
Speaking of good movies, we saw one more time the Rules of the Game last night. Highly
recommended.
<<<Thank you, it's available here. Just avoid "The Game". :)
>>>
How much snow you got so far?
<<<Not much. A farmer in me feels sad about it.
regards, gnat
