rmg51 | Morning | 11:55 |
pleia2 | something | 11:55 |
jedijf | pleia2: lol - what day time country etc | 12:16 |
pleia2 | all airports look the same :) | 12:16 |
waltman | Where in the world is pleia2 sandiego? | 13:08 |
pleia2 | hong kong for another couple hours | 13:09 |
waltman | Did you get to downtown Hong Kong, or were you stuck out by the airport? | 13:11 |
waltman | "central", I think they call it. | 13:11 |
waltman | Ride a ferry? Go up to the top of Mt. Victoria? | 13:12 |
waltman | I really liked Hong Kong when I visited about 15 years ago. My only real disappointment was that there didn't seem to be junks anymore. | 13:18 |
pleia2 | waltman: I was in central a few times, did a boat tour of the harbor too | 13:56 |
pleia2 | no mt victoria, mostly eating and shopping :) and saw the big buddha today | 13:57 |
waltman | yay | 13:57 |
pleia2 | http://princessleia.com/images/journalpics/112013/WoS_boat_hong_kong.jpg | 14:00 |
pleia2 | went on that boat :) | 14:00 |
pleia2 | unfortunately it was raining | 14:00 |
pleia2 | and I had some egg custards :d | 14:00 |
KyleYankan | Pequrliar that they have the mainsail down. Junk rigs aren't always the most balanced, usually you'd reef the entire sailplan instead of changing it. | 14:09 |
KyleYankan | peculiar* wowsa | 14:10 |
KyleYankan | I mean, having multiple reef points is on the the major advantages of that sailplan | 14:11 |
pleia2 | I think they put up more sails once we were actually on it | 14:14 |
KyleYankan | eh, it's still strange, ever if they were using it a s mooring sail, they'd only use the aft. They must have some strange reason. I wonder why. | 14:15 |
KyleYankan | Sailing buddies only explanation: "To look fancy" :-P | 14:19 |
KyleYankan | Very pretty boat though. I always wanted to have a junk-rig. | 14:21 |
waltman | pleia2: that's awesome | 14:28 |
waltman | Still morning here, and I'm about to head to Minella's for breakfast! | 14:29 |
waltman | Have a great trip back! | 14:29 |
pleia2 | thanks :) enjoy | 14:30 |
jedijf | KyleYankan: way to overboat a simple pic LOL | 14:56 |
KyleYankan | jedijf: Always. People should know better than to show me a boat pic. Especially a sailboat with a unique rig. | 14:57 |
jedijf | so future KyleYankan kids will have to be certified to sail bathtub toys.... | 15:01 |
jedijf | in this house, we're big on shark attacks | 15:02 |
KyleYankan | Shark Attacks are no laughing matter. We don't joke about that. | 15:03 |
jedijf | grand daughter quote, "It's a friendly shark" | 15:03 |
KyleYankan | Sharks are only grumpy because no-one gives them hugs? | 15:04 |
jedijf | sharks and ursula get a bad rap | 15:04 |
jedijf | got to have mermaids in there too | 15:05 |
KyleYankan | Heh. You know what they say.... | 15:05 |
* KyleYankan sings "Everything's better down where it's wetter, take it from meeeee" | 15:05 | |
* jedijf goes back to reading ham stuff before bacon at nabrasas | 15:06 | |
KyleYankan | 2 Nieces. I get to watch all the Disney/Pixar movies. and yes, I've had ribbons in my beard. | 15:06 |
* waltman is baconful | 15:48 | |
waltman | KyleYankan: pink ribbons? | 15:48 |
KyleYankan | I think they were green and blue. I tried not to remember details. | 15:48 |
KyleYankan | They were... difficult to remove. | 15:48 |
waltman | says the guy who just gave us detailed info on the sailing characteristics of junk rigging... | 15:49 |
KyleYankan | Hey, we all knows that beard is not the as rope. If I had a line or sheet as messy as my beard, it would of been replaced already. | 15:50 |
JonathanD | I threw my quad port graphics card up on craigslist, but if anyone needs one lemme know. | 16:29 |
cyberanger | JonathanD: what card is it? | 16:48 |
JonathanD | matrox M9148 | 16:48 |
cyberanger | ah, nice one, shame I'm not on the market for a card today, maybe once the move is fully behind me | 16:53 |
cyberanger | JonathanD: wish I could afford that | 17:01 |
JonathanD | Would you make an epic video wall? | 17:01 |
JonathanD | :P | 17:01 |
cyberanger | idk if it'd be a wall, but it'd be epic | 17:07 |
cyberanger | maybe for my flight sim stuff | 17:07 |
cyberanger | (otherwise it'd just be work, and where's the fun in that) | 17:08 |
KyleYankan | payday? | 17:09 |
cyberanger | KyleYankan: are you asking JonathanD ? | 17:10 |
cyberanger | or me? | 17:10 |
KyleYankan | I'm responding to your "Where's the fun in work" comment above ^ :-) | 17:11 |
cyberanger | ah, yeah, more like where's the fun in buying that card JUST for work, but yeah, paychecks are good | 17:12 |
KyleYankan | ssh with size 72 point font in your terminal? | 17:13 |
KyleYankan | IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES | 17:13 |
cyberanger | well, there are plenty of possibilites for a NOC | 17:13 |
JonathanD | ooh flight sim. | 17:14 |
cyberanger | yeah, while an actual plane beats a sim any good day, sim is cheaper and every day is good | 17:17 |
KyleYankan | I always wanted to goto the Philadelphia Glider Club | 17:20 |
cyberanger | I've seen gliders, but kept to motors | 17:30 |
cyberanger | except for skydiving, then I'd glide to the DZ | 17:30 |
* cyberanger is a bit weird, or at least an adrenaline junkie | 17:33 |
