But some people just don't understand . . .




I understand that the VW Beetle has a rear mounted engine, so that must be a corpse blowing off steam in the front ...


Let me try this again, a bunch of ASP 500 errors from my end . . .

It is not just a rear mounted engine!

Edit:

so now a doubled post.

Ya the original Bug engine was air-cooled, but the modernized one they did in the 80s or 90s was water cooled IIRC.

If you look at the car especially with the white wall tires and then see how the man is dressed, it would much more likely be the air-cooled engine. The original was designed by Porsche . . .

No. The world does not wonder. That is, of course, in my humble opinion. And, as previously established, my opinion is always the right opinion. Even though I am very humble about it.

Some people might wonder though. Or even worry. But that is quite another thing than the world.

And by the way. How does one define the world in this context?

In a historical game context, it is padding in a message that was misunderstood to be part of the message. As such, it changed the message as in this picture:

No , my outlook is pretty much unchanged I've had a years worth of getting injections and implants every six weeks with no improvement. In a month or so I'll be going in for surgery , which is pretty much the last option. But , at least I have one working eye. Had the stroke been a little bit to the left it would have been my brain , and as limited as that is , it's the only one that I have. So I was very fortunate.

Tithe. Long overdue. My apologies, I've remiss , as well as absent.

I thought maybe you got caught up in the fall of Sauron's black tower in Mordor!
Glad to see you are still about. Welcome back.




Thank you. I'm not really back per se . I had a stroke just after last Christmas which left me pretty much blind in my right eye. (Despite nearly a year of getting shots in the eye , I can't read at all with it. Unfortunately that also has mead it difficult to read , especially computer screens). I've been "lurking " occassionally , and my long suffering partner in a PBEM , "Geoff the gorn" has put up with my trying to work on our PBEM.

But I'm really not all that active on a computer these days. It's always good to look in and see that you guys are still mostly here though.




It's good to see you, buddy! Very sorry to hear of your vision issues. Any chance that it could improve from this point? I think vision problems are one of the medical conditions that I would hate the most.

No need to apologize. Hope that you may recover further.

BTW, I too had a stroke that stopped me for a while.

Nothing with the eyes though. Couldn't handle the mouse for a bit.

Although I did have eye trouble. Detached retina. Its kinda OK these days.

At any rate, drop in from time to time when possible.





Many thanks. I'll try.

Maybe Orm could get more information on this situation since he does live near there.
