    I have finally got results of previous year pan-CSI olympiad "Russian Cupbear" (which is smth. between SAT exam and olympiade in Russian), and surprise, Khover Antonio, gymansium 94, Ekaterinburg (it's me, occasionally), gets 1 place in CSI and therefore, becomes a Master of Russian. There's a link http://rm.kirov.ru/pr2005.htm, I'm in list "10 класс", having the highest result of 115, but I'm sucking alphabetically, so I'm only the fourth listed there "Ховер Антонио, г.Екатеринбург, МОУ гимназия 94".

    That was logical intelligence contest mixed with about 40 tasks in Russian. With more people as me and mathboy HOL would soon have intellectual potential comparable with freemason union :thumbup: :D

    You have finished your Unix project, which is supposed to be done in one-two weeks, in several hours. You know, das ist really the way all homework, no matter how large, is done in Russia (and 50% fail to succeed), and it's remarkable as well. Then, do not forget pictures of your ass took 1 place in International home-foto competition. :D

    Like it's not universal :lol:

    Anyway, I made the VMS part of the homework with a similar learning curve, except I finished all 3 programs and everybody needed to finish only 1 :)

    I got a 5 (1..5, 5 is best) (remark: my other subjects are way worse, I even got a 1 in one subject /more later on that shit/)

    Yeah, that's pretty remarkable :lol:

    Your contribution is worthless too.
    Especially about England. One your daystory in Leeds had dispelled all good myths ad thoughts I had about Albion. That's very important cause I know now that visiting England for more than 2 weeks is too dangerous for my psyhical health. (and, what's more, who knows, what marmite can do with man) :roll:

    They don't produce marmite in factories. They summon it straight from hell.

    Well, at least they could not worry about preparing mass-destructive weapons for the nearest war...

    The truth is even worse than that. They might even give it to their own troops!

    England's generally a quite horrible place, really. I went there for three weeks last summer, and JEEZ I just wanted to get right back to Heathrow and go home again.

    Then again, I lived with a Waltdorf family. And, as we all know, they're quite... Special.

    Last month, I tried Marmite for the first time.
    I really hadn't prepared myself for the horror of it all.
    No, I *couldn't* have prepared myself for the horror. It was just a vile, vile substance. I've never had medicine that tasted so revolting.
    Yet somehow Marmite has been around for decades and it's still available in most shops.
    The question is, who buys this stuff?

    However I still want to try Vegemite.

    Well, since it was on islands since VIII century, that's snobbish and ugly-charactered people that make England so 'special'

    Vegemite is meant to be an "aussie Icon". I wake up every morinig feeling like shit knowing that people around the world think of a shit coloured and tasting spread and think of Australia!
