It must be my turn this time! Please!!
 
Congratulations Mark :t:
I'm sure you'll enjoy the Primes - will be interesting to get your take on them....




Chosun :gh:
 
Wow! Thanks so much Charles!

Honestly, here's what I've won in my entire life. A ten-speed bike at the age of twelve, and $20 with a scratch-off lottery ticket about fifteen years ago. Aside from that, doodly.

Thanks again!

I won't be entering this month's contest so others have a better chance. Charles, just disqualify this entry at the end. Best of luck to all!

I have enjoyed the heck out of my Zen 8x43 ED2, and the 7x36 ED2 I gave to my dad a few years ago. I can't wait to see the Prime!

Mark

Mark, your winning post number is #465!

Again, Congratulations!

Der Aureol

Der Aureol sein Lied zwar sang,
doch barg im Laubwerk er sich bang.
Versteckt' der goldnen Federn Pracht,
indes er heimlich mich verlacht ...
 
Why? It's a poem, you don't have to understand it.

By the way, I made it up myself, so maybe you should even be glad you don't understand it. Or maybe you shouldn't ...

Sorry, I have never read them. (I haven't read the Austrian constitution either, though, and I'm still allowed to live in this country.)

But I'll try and give sort of a translation tomorrow, as this provides me with a pretext for another meaningless post. So, thanks for the hint.
