This was a short (7 episodes) low budget sci-fi series in '66 (Space Patrol Orion); very low budget. They did everything to appear futuristic. The setup of the bridge e.g. included an iron as steering instrument and so on. It's meanwhile a cult and some cinemas (or tv) occasionally show all episodes in one night. But the theme is o.k.:WWGD said:Drunk Penguin Danzert?

Yes, and we can have actual pictures and not just portraits for avatars ;).marlon said:Evo, i just realized something: when we first talked to each other on this forum, the iphone did not exist yet
Damn time sure does fly by fast, no?
No, sorry, just trying to get in on the joke on modernization, since your avatar seems like a portrait :).marlon said:WWGD, what does that stand for? Did we know each other here ?
Besides, that me in the pic
Those were good times though.marlon said:Evo, i just realized something: when we first talked to each other on this forum, the iphone did not exist yet

Aka: "I am still standing, Yea, Yea, Yea".Borek said:Still kicking.
Yeah. Even Rubinstein said after he had seen his first piano that he had looted folk and other sources. So it seems quite typical for Tchaikovsky.Ibix said:Just been listening to Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto, which I don't think I'd heard before. Can't believe how much he ripped off the Star Wars soundtrack. And the bits Tchaikovsky didn't take, that Holst joker put into Mars...
Leonard Rubinstein was called Len Rubinstein . Now that I am learning Python, I just call him 9.fresh_42 said:Yeah. Even Rubinstein said after he had seen his first piano that he had looted folk and other sources. So it seems quite typical for Tchaikovsky.
len("Bernstein")==9, to be precise.WWGD said:Freshmeister: Did I beat you in obscurit-y in
my last post? (len(Bernstein)=9)

I only want to know: what did Miró and Kandinsky take?Klystron said:o add to the confusion, they paint portraits of each other and insert each other in crowd scenes.

Anyway, my jokes are bad enough as it is to make them technically correct. I leave that for the programming section and give myself license in this one.
That's how "good" my jokes are :).cosmik debris said:Oh man, I finally got it. I thought it was some kind of Cockney rhyming slang.

I want to win at all costs, so I will say len("Benstein") == 8Borek said:Actually in Python - both work OK.
That is, if works a bit better when you refer to him as Bernstein than Benstein, but let's not get too nitpicky.

Or we can make it otherwise: Let's convince Al Franken to hook up his daughter with Ben Stein's son...Klystron said:License freely given. I have read that the Gran Maestro made jokes about his own name. When reporters shouted "Mister Bern-steen" he would turn turn and shout "stine!. That's birn-stine!". Or perhaps it was the other way around; I can never remember.![]()
