What Kind Of Car Do You Drive?
rohirwine replied to chichigrande's topic in Introductions & Off-Topic Discussion
Well, actually Lancia is owned by Fiat (and th emodel comes from another unknown brand called Autobianchi wich is owned by Lancia). In any case: i do not see why owning a BMW R65 is much Italian... P.S. You'll see of wich car i'm driving Klaas, you'll see: no needs to be hasty... -
Nice pics, Erik, it should have been a great time!

Being an estimated bowyer, of course... -
You're not counting flawed ones... Sidenote: Hmm, better keep an eye open just not to let this topic slip into some CG rules breaking...

I'm going to attend a Bowyer course
rohirwine replied to rohirwine's topic in Introductions & Off-Topic Discussion
Hmm, i'll try to put the digital camera in recharge this evening, but do not expect pictures till friday... ...yesterday we had the first problems: the back of the stave was scarred by the machines wich handled the trunk in the lumberyard, moreover wood-worms eat through the bark (wich does not matter at all) and lesioned also the first two layers of wood (wich matters much more). The only remedy is carefully taking away the ruined layers to expose an intact one: it's a forced labor task, i assure you... Bah, i'll see how it goes on.. -

Hehe, since tennis courts tend to be a bit hot, i immagine they're looking at the slow moving girl (look at the bunch of things she still has to collect) asking themselves when the heck she will move away and leth them finish that sweathy job...

I'm going to attend a Bowyer course
rohirwine replied to rohirwine's topic in Introductions & Off-Topic Discussion
Yesterday i finally began the Bowyer course. We began to work on Ash billets, with a great production of wood splinters on the floor and skin bristles on the hands... I'm working on a medium sized longbow (not the exact english design). It'll be 1,86 m. high (it should be 20 cm. longer to fit in the tradition), and it has a good wood grain, wich makes me hope it will sustain the stress of being draw... ...the only downside is that the billed is slightly recurved and this will probably set some degree of string-follow (wich usually lessens draw weight)... -
What's Your Position On Capital Punishment?
rohirwine replied to DarkAngelBGE's topic in Introductions & Off-Topic Discussion
I agree with Amy and SoggyFrog. Death doesn't resolve the problem of crime. It usually makes it worse: since criminals know they risk death punishment, they are less prone to refrain from very violent acts (rape, murder, and the rest), at least this is what i read in a Scientific American issue some time ago. And there is still the fact that you cannot correct your ecision if it is proven that the judgement was wrong... ..rehabilitation should be the right path, the problem is that i do not know many states that organized good rehabilitating drills for prisoners... BTW: this should stay in the HoI indeed, imho... -
Yeees, it's true! And he even did not change it when began avaible...

Heh, it's a long story.... :)

How Good Is Your Eyesight?
rohirwine replied to CodeOptimist's topic in Introductions & Off-Topic Discussion
You don't have to convert it, that number measures the corrections you need to see properly, whereas the 20/something measures how much you (don't) see: they measure different things... -
I usually use , but and are improoving, for obvious reasons...
