87 I've already determined that this year will be wonderful! I asked
88 my mom to look in her crystal ball and tell me, so there you have it,
89 from the mouth of a real gypsy. As for the story, I left for a litt;le
90 bit to regain my sense on whether I really wanted to do this, so I have no clue
91 as to what is going on. I decided to stay, and as I entered a strange and
92 unusual place that I had never been before, I found several people dead drunk.
93 a quick glance in my crystal ball, I determined that they had been that way for
94 time. "Quite disgusting!" I muttered anmd sat down to wait for them to revive.

101 Yours was a little more than 11 hours later. For whatever That's worth.
102 CISTOP - I believe the system clock is off by a day - it indicates that

117 Ah, the story. (Gee, perhaps that writers block is fading.)
118
119 I faded back into the space that was the table occupied by my companions.
120 The Astral trip had been a short one but had been fruitfull. Perhaps someday
121 I would have the story of the vieled one, the pieces continued to fall
122 together.
123
124 I pulled a deck of cards from my pocket and laid them out of the table.
125
126 While I waited for the rest of our group to finish assembling I shuffled the
127 cards and put them out one by one. It was not the future that I wished to
128 see, It was the past.

159 No need I hope. I will now continue my story. (BTW, if you guys don't start
160 posting I'm going to break off and do my own story.)
161
162 The cards were not cooperating. Some things Were more easily found then Others
163 though and I continued in my quest. The Somnulence around the table was
164 lessaning but Was still quete oppresive. Soon perhaps There would be action.
165
166 After shuffling and dealing out the cards several more times I was forced
167 to admit that atleast for now the way was blocked. For some reason this
168 portion of the past was hidden from me. I knew that this particuler time
169 was very important. It was intagral to the appearance of the vieled one.
170
171 Sighing I contemplated the strange sky above. I had traveled to many different
172 places, but this one was strangly different.
173
174 I am myself as are many of my companions forward traveling ninth order beings.
175 (Some are 10th order, But I will leave it to you to decide which.)
176
177 The Multiverse you see is made up of atleast 9 dimensions and posibly more.
178 The first three are of course height width and depth. The fourth is
179 forward/backward time travel. (I and most may only travel forward along
180 this line.)
181
182 The 5th is made up of alternate time lines. Remember that cup you broke at
183 some time in the past? Well, somewere out there is a line were you didn't.
184
185 The sixth is made up of totaly different time lines that have the same
186 physical laws as the one we live in.
187
188 The seventh,eighth and ninth are very strange indeed and are the physical
189 'space' in which universes with laws different from minorly to absolutly
190 from those of our own.
191
192 There is of course a paradox or two here. As you might realize there are
193 potentioly millions of me running around. But only one fixed point persona
194 (any one of me that exist in the Multi-verse) can become a forward traveling
195 ninth order being. When one becomes a ninth order being new laws begin
196 to operate which prevent ones duplication. How this is done is beyond
197 even those of the 10th order.
198
199 If and when I progress to the 10th order that will allow another of my fixed
200 point persona to attain the 9th order.

202 But time grow short, Let the adevture beg!

220 Did you know that BW is partially supported through the distribution of

222 You can "buy in" to the archive group and obtain copies of all the
223 previous disks starting from day one, or you can buy individual
224 disks. Individual disks go for $5.00 with typically five BW 'disks'
225 on each archive disk. Disks are provided in MS-DOS format.
226
227 Did you know that the achives can be obtained by showing up at the
228 meeting and ordering them from an archive representative?

230 Did you know that the meeting is held at Stark Street Pizza on

253 Hello, Ever have one of those days? I had to return some software to software
254 pipeline today so I took the bus out there from downtown to clackamas.
255
256 On the way back I waited 1 hour in the rain for the return bus. It drove
257 by me. So I decided I'd walk a ways down the road. Stoped at a cross
258 walk. Waited for the light to change. Got 3/4th of the way across heard
259 something to my side. Looked just in time to see a truck smack into me
260 aaround 18 -20 miles an hour. I guess I got lucky. Several bruises, a
261 sprained left thumb and a brocken front touth. All this hapened about
262 five hours ago. I'm glad the guy stoped. He didn't have to. Especially
263 considering his lack of insurence. I'm feeling REALY happy to me alive
264 and relativly well right now.

288 Sue Trimet? Tempting, But I suspect it would be a wee bit difficult to prove.
289 I can tell you they are not my favorite people. Some of the drivers are nice,
290 but most of them don't seem to give a damn. That and their schedules are
291 worthless.
292
293 Might not lose the tooth. Hope so anyway, Had it for a long time. No next
294 week for sure.
295
296 Well, on to the story.
297
298 Kurfer called for a game of 7 card. I had to smile a bit at this. I was not
299 sure that he would enjoy (Whoops Kurfur, Sorry!) what the cards would show
300 him. Instead a quickly put that deck away and pulled another from my
301 pocket.
302
303 "Would you like to check the cards?" I asked him. He gave me a look that
304 indicated He'd know if I cheated. The look also told volumes about what
305 any good berserker does to a man who cheats.
306
307 "Well then, I'll shuffle and you cut" I shuffled the cards quickly and
308 efficiantly and Kurfur cut them (No, not with a sword.)
309
310 "Alright, 7 card stud. Aces of course are high." I said dealing the cards
311 out one by one.
312
313 I picked my cards up slowly and looked at them. Not very promising I thought.
314 Suddenly to my side there was a noise. I looked there and was suprised to
315 see a large scally green dragon had appeared. "Aurthur!" I exclaimed. "Good
316 to see you!" Kurfur wasn't taking this to well. "Ale, I see Ale. I think it's
317 the legendary ale beast. Just went over that ridge!" I said pointing behind
318 the disgruntled berserker. (Berserkers are not stupid, But they do have
319 there weakneses.)
320
321 Kurfer took off immediatly chaising after the mythical beast.
322
323 I turned to Aurthur. "To late to deal me in?" he asked. Did you really come
324 to play cards? I replied.
325
326 "Well no, actually I was hoping you'd found a solution to my 'proble,'".
327
328 "No, I'm affraid not. You really shouldn't sneak up on people that way you
329 know." I told him.
330
331 "Oh, I suppose you may be right, But I have to do something to eliminate
332 stereotypes. Now if I were to announce my presence everywere I go How
333 would we ever eliminate this foolish fear of dragons?
334
335 "Fine, But one of these days You're going to be in a good deal of trouble."
336
337 "Cut the debate and deal, I feel lucky!" he replied.

390 Good question, WHY BUSH OR DUKAKIS
391 We arn't getting any support from all of our allied nations on this libian jet
392 shootdown. I think we had the right after the bomb on the Pan Am flight, that
393 killed many more people than the two pilots killed in those jets.
394 By the way how could anyone like Dan Quayle?

577 I looked across the table at Aurthor. Unfortunetly the dragon had what could
578 conservativly be called a poker face. "Ok, I'll see your five and raise you
579 five." I said noting the the three aces in my hand.
580
581 "Find," he replied. "I'll meet your five and call. What have you got?
582
583 "Three of a kind, I've got you this time!"
584
585 "Ah Know you don't!" he replied laying down three kings, two jacks and
586 discarded the remaining two cards to the side.
587
588 "Ok,That puts you up by 3 games. I think I'll have to call it quits for now."
589
590 "Fine. You know I really wonder what happened to the Berserker fellow. Was
591 that Ale beast story you told him a lie?"
592
593 "Come now Aurthur, You know I never Lie."
594
595 "Yeah, Right." he replied sarcasticly. "Didn't you say you were doomed two
596 hands back and then pull out a royal flush to beat my two pair?"
597
598 "Well, so perhaps I do stretch the truth occasionally."
599
600 "So was there and Ale beast or not?"
601
602 "Thats up to Kurfur, He's a Berserker after all. You know anything is possible

604
605 "I suppose. Well now This brings me down to the reason I came here."
606
607 "And that is?"
608
609 "Well, it seems I've been evicted for oweing back taxes."
610
611 "they evicted a dragon?" I asked a bit incredulouse.
612
613 "Well, You know I have such a good disposition. Besides, It didn't seem very
614 prudent to toast the kings men. Do wish they'd have mentioned this taxes thing
615 earlier though."
616

673 SEASIDE is a great place. It sounds like a fun place to live. I've been there

675 wanted to go into SEASIDE soooo badly to mess around, but his mom would not
676 take us, so WE WALKED!!!!!!! It took about 2 hours. Then, when we were on out
677 (whoops!) --our way back, we took a short cut through a river, I fell in, and
678 we stopped at that pizza place that looks like a castle on the way back. The
679 guy at the counter asked us what we had been doing (he thought we were weird
680 or something), because here we were with sand in our hair and I was soaking wet
681 !!!!! And we told him that we went swimming in the river next to his
682 restaurant. He looked at us and said "Oh." It was a riot. When we left, the
683 seats were soaking and sand was all over the place. I bet they had fun
684 cleaning it up. OH, WELL, so much for SEASIDE!!!! See ya!!

763 Actual, Astral Dreamer, I didn't know that I had them until a little while
764 ago. I have never used any of them or tried to use any of them. One of my
765 sister's older friends (about 19) years old was getting ready to go to college
766 and sold his computer. My sister told him once about how I liked computers,
767 and he gave her the disks he had to give to me. I just got around to looking
768 at them a month or so ago, and I found out what they were from reading the
769 files on the disks which explained the content of the disk. I guess that guy
770 was really into computer hacking, etc!!! There is some major stuff on there.
771 By the way, I am operating off an Apple IIe, and that is what those disks
772 run on (or IIc, II+, II, etc.), and if you are operating off one of those
773 computers, then you can have the disks from me if you want to try out some
774 of the stuff on them, you probably know more than I do about that stuff!!

786 I'm running off of an Amiga 500 myself. I'll skip on the disks, I've got a
787 bright future ahead of me :-) I'd really have bad withdrawell symptoms if I

794 Those disks seem to be pretty dangerous! Well, I'll either keep them stored
795 away0in }i files of hundreds of disks or give them to some unlucky computer
796 novice who doesn't know the first thing about trouble generated through the
797 use of a modem.
798 I have always liked the Amiga 500 computer. I wanted one really badly a long
'99 dime ago. The graphics, sound (especially) qualities were/are great! I have
800 the Apple ][e, and I have an IBM PC/XT too. Maybe I'll get an Amiga someday.
801 Possibly a newer version (1000?). I like making movies, as a matter of fact,
802 I want to bu a movie director when I get into college (USC-definitely), and
803 I have a friend who has an Amiga 500 and we ran some of my home movies through
804 and did some incredible graphics and stuff similar to that.
805 A couple questions of interest. I0don7t expect you to answer them if you
806 don't want. How old are you? In college, if so which one? What city do you
807 live in? Tell me some more about yourself and I'll do the same next time.
808 Also, is Kurfur Redlig that guy's real name?
809 Or is0it a character from a game, movie, etc.???

834 I just turned 22 last month. Am a Student at Portland State University Majoring
835 in history, though my heart is in computers. (Can't hack the mqdh.9
836
837 Maybe in a year or two I'll get my diploma. Don't know for sure, I've been
838 having Financial Aid problems and am thinking that this might be my last term
839 for awhile.
840
841 I urned to much money last year and because of the0ctupid way they work out
842 wether or not you are a dependent I could not be independent. Thus I got screwe
843 d out of 1/3 of my Aid. And it got here a term late. I'm still in debt up to
844 my ears. Then I get hit by a truck. This is the closest thyng Y've been
845 to depressed in a long time. (earned, not urned :-))
846
847 The 2500 is the latest Amiga. It is 5 times faster then my machine, has 3 times
848 as much memory, comes with a fast hard disk and (I think) has the new improved
849 graphics chips. Of course it costs around 4000$

859 to tell me yours? I'm all ears.

863 Well, Astral Dreamer, it sounds like things aren't going too well0for you
864 lately. Now, as I'm only 16, I'm not looking forward to the possible conflicts
865 in college. From my last message, you know my college wishes. I really hope
866 that they come true, I'm working real hard to make them a reality.
867 By thu way, you have a great sense of humor. I found myself laughing many
868 times while reading your last message to me to which I am responding. It
869 was funny.
870 I don't have much more to say, but I'll be back to see if you do.

892 Dxanks, Kaitlyn, for the advice. I'll get going as soon as possible.
893 Why can't you see the messages as they come out??? Can't you just stop
894 the screen by using Control-S? On my computer, the lines kind of draw out,
895 word by word, letter by ledter,0but fast -- just enough time for me to read
896 what people are saying without have to go back and reread. If you cannot
897 read all the message someone has given you, then you're not getting the
898 most out of this board.

941 DOD stands for Department Of Defense. As you can imagine they are not to
942 enthusiastic about people getting into their "stuff".
943
944 I'm not to sure as to wether or not Kurfur's name is real or not. I do know tha
945 t he uses it on several other boards as well.
946
947 College can be a heck of a lot of fun. The advice I would give is to work hard
948 and enjoy yourself from the start. If you are doing somthing you love you'll
949 have no problem.
