Double contact. Matija, your dude will have a hard time escaping this straightjacket. Mads, yours was a bit too hasty in his intrusion across my turf. Heh.

I have no idea what I'm doing in this game. I getting beaten up from Whispers to Xajorkith, and there's no end in sight. I'm really in a bad streak at the moment, losing games left and right. This one must be one of my worst played in a long time.

And you were not specially unlucky at the start, if I regress accurately... sleep deprivation?

I know what you're thinking, but that's not it either. Instead, I think I'm getting influenced by spring: Gardening, bird watching, fishing, flying a kite with my nephew or another child I know, these are the things that distract me. Or I'm bored with the current set of games, because I'm losing them all, but too proud to concede any of them. (No, Fernanddo, that wasn't a suggestion for a 1on1 either )

You cannot know what I was thinking, because I have been in a boring meeting for the past hour ;D
>Instead, I think I'm getting influenced by spring: >Gardening, bird watching, fishing, flying a kite with my >nephew or another child I know, these are the things >that distract me.
I'd like to be able to go fishing. We simply have no time at all, life is choking these days. Spring rules, that spiritual, mental feeling you get like smelling a different sort of air when you get up in the morning.

Well, could be, I'll set it up. I know you implied otherwise, but hey, that's me ;D

Yeah, spring. I have 10 apple trees to prune, plus assorted other growth. Did almost a half over the weekend, and now I'm spending all afternoons in a rather futile attempt not to loose another weekend with it.

Ah, but on the other hand, you will have sunny days when you will get to be lazy after a positively hearty lunch, with the smell of fresh fruit and the shade of broad leaves. What I'd give for that.

Actually, on warm and sunny days I have lunch in the garden.
And a book afterwards, if time allows.

By some divine accident I spent some time today discussing pruning of apple trees with a female friend. Her trees, so all I came with were helpful, friendly suggestions, not commands. Then we transported a lot of horse s.h.i.t from a horse farm to her garden an buried it there in carefully staked areas, and dug up some raspberry bushes and placed them somewhere else and planted garlic in the strawberry patch, and discussed the schedule for the rest of the plantings. But the horse s.h.i.t was the highlight of the day, no doubt about it Added:Why does this bloody censure thing translate s.h.i.t into "nuts"? Translating 'balls' or 'bullocks' or [insert your own favorite term for Coglione! here] into nuts I could understand, but s.h.i.t ? Okay, s.h.i.t could be used instead of nuts when you say "Aw, s.h.i.t", but what about "I don't give a s.h.i.t" or simply "Bulls.h.i.t". Or you have to describe what you are going to the toilet for? "I have to nuts" Yeah, yeah, thread polluting, I know. Talk to the nuts

...or you could just say "horse manure" and avoid the hassle.

...or you could just say "horse manure" and avoid the hassle. 'Manure' is three letters more than 's.h.i.t'. I'm not typing extra letters just for some extremist-conservative holier-than-thou rightwing capitalist Amerikan sc.rew.ed-up ideas of proper language. Mind their own danged business, thank you very much! Just kidding, I'm not trying to get an Amerikan-bashing thread going.

Yes, but Korinel should mind where he's going ;D Duly noted. But those who pick on poor little Korinel should watch out for his friends nearby. In High King Natmus the Friendly's alliance people look out for each other and help each other out when they get in trouble.
