Hey slavo, quick (pretty dumb) question:
In german, Bratislava is called Pressburg ("press-castle"). So is it
Bratis = press
Lava = Castle
??


no way. "Lava" means "Lava" in our language :)



 


Bratislava is a word that means nothing. It's just a name and "Pressburg" is an old German name for it, just like "Poszony" is the Hungarian name for it.
It used to be a tri-language city, with many austrians and hungarians living in it.

The slovak word for "castle" is "hrad".

I've seen lots of animals made from script in arabic before (calligrams).... not so much in english/other languages though.

^^it depends on the appartment situation. we ve got a pretty cheap one in sight so far. but we have to hurry I think. the problem is we are 6 persons for sure, maybe up to 8.
do you got some adresses for hiring cheap appartments? it hasnt to be deluxe, just a warm, halfway clean place to sleep, hahaha

a student house might be an option. they usually tend to rent rooms for these special occasions so you might have a look in these directions.

shabbray2.0 12.03.2009 08:09 AM

will do so if the appartment is already given away to someone else.

shabbray2.0 12.03.2009 08:32 AM

I had this view like 4 or 5 times in my lifetime and its paralysing you with beauty. I think you have to see it with your own eyes to really feel how breathtaking it looks. alone the chance for that is worth flying, hahaha
so I hope your flight will be around that time and you wont be too wasted to enjoy it, hrhrhr

never been to prague but just heard good things about it. so I am really looking forward to leave this damn country for at least some days again

I love the ones where the day/night sky are on an angle / and you can see the gradient. I had this on an international from london->singapore with the moon in full view. It was epic. If only I'd had my camera out.

oh yes, I love car trips. its exhausting and thrilling at the same time to drive somewhere by car over 10 hours. I love the feeling of crossing the finish line when you reach your destination. and I love driving cars, hahaha
completely different but a great and surely more intense way of travelling

_slavo_ 12.03.2009 08:56 AM

let me know if you come to prague by car or by any other means. I can act as a perfect (and free of charge) guide :)

A Thousand Threads 12.03.2009 09:03 AM

Prague by car is horrible. My girlfriend had to take over the steering wheel after i nearly collided with tramways for two times.
I think we drove around for about 3 hours until we finally found that park and ride spot.

shabbray2.0 12.03.2009 09:09 AM

I think it cant be worse then paris with a motorhome. I drove through it on my way to the campingsite and I have to say that these 2 hours from the whole 10 hour trip will make out at least 80% of my exhaustion afterwards. it felt like war, but a war without too many dead bodies, hahaha

@nicfit:
do you ever used "processing"?
its like a much cooler, more open version of flash actionscript...

nicfit 12.05.2009 09:46 AM

Ha ha, I didn't even use actionscript once yet.
I'm lame.
I'll investigare into that, I suppose it could be useful for animations and stuff, a'ight?

ah, just read the pm, I'm about to reply.
weird days ahead.

shabbray2.0 12.05.2009 09:50 AM

no, I never used it for anymotion so far, but I am sure it would be useful.
its procssed graphics with a lot of mathematics n stuff. totally boring, but the results are sometimes overwhelming.
its like building your own graphic tools (when it works)

nicfit 12.05.2009 09:55 AM

AH!
Tonight I will miss Black Heart Procession, methinks...uff.

shabbray2.0 12.05.2009 09:57 AM

I got a hangover.
and I need a Torx T7 srewdriver to put my new used HDD into my mac to got a shitload of space.
hell yeah

SYRFox 12.05.2009 10:39 AM
