-
- The Main Course slideshow
- =========================
- (A Bowl Of Soup II)
- Converted by The Hairy Pies
-
-
- Oh, congratulations.... You now know
- that by pressing <Escape> during the
- show quits to desktop (as in a bowl of
- soup.. That had a doc too)...ulness
- you are just being nosey (It's the
- sort of thing I do).
-
- Oh, please excuse me for being so
- rude... My names ~^*GUZ*^~ and this
- is The Hairy Pies (yes, I think
- everyone but the illiterate and the
- blind (and the dead) have gathered
- that...) here..... but you already
- know that....
-
- Unfortunately before I go on, I'll
- fill you to the brim with some info
- about this slideshow (there is a
- thoery that the brain has a finite
- capacity, so if you learn too much,
- then you forget things that you
- previously knew.. Like how to walk...
- And that could prove to be very
- embarrassing!)... So here goes...:
-
- This demo contains fourteen 4096
- colour low-res piccies from the
- Amiga (the Nightbreed show by
- Hatrick, to be precise) and are
- displayed in 48 colours per scan-
- line using PhotoChrome by
- >^~The Pixel Twins^~<
- ..... The sample is a snippet
- from the blues brothers version of
- 'Soul Finger' (originally by the
- bar-kays) and is at a clear (and
- surprisingly loud) 12.5Khz.....
- STEreo, of course.
-
- O.K.... That's the first bit over
- with.... Now, Who did what (on the
- conversion side of things..)
-
- The sound was sampled by
- Mr Mad McMad-Madden
-
- The Pictures were ripped and
- ported by Mr Mad (etc etc)
-
- The Pics were converted to photo-
- chrome by Guz (and PhotoChrome
- ...Obviously)
-
- The sample was made executable by
- Guz (and My Ultimate Ripper, which
- isn't such a bad cartridge)
-
- The intro pic was drawn by me (Guz)
- using Neochrome master (of course)
- .... And it is crap, I know.
-
- That is about it, really....
-
-
-
- I feel (there for I'm real) that
- it is time I update the member list
- of The Hairy Pies for you....

- betical order)

-
-
- Hah! only joking (boo hoo)! I now
- must send my regards and thanks to
- the following libraries.....
-
- - Alan Cameron (of PD4U)
-
- - Caroline Price (of New Age PDL)
-
- - Jake Bain (of Caledonia PDL)
-
- For being so nice about A Bowl of
- Soup.... May I wish you all the
- greatest success in your libraries!
-
-
-
- Right, it's bollocks time!
- .... I was talking to Mr Mad etc etc
- about life and so on.... He told
- me that in 2016 a meteor a third
- the size of earth is going to hit
- this planet and kill everything on
- it..... So this got us talking
- about what might happen.... Like
- what if it just missed the Earth,
- would it cause tidal waves? or
- would we all have killed ourselves
- (rather than face a possibly painful
- death)?..... I pointed out that
- Nostrodamus predicted that the world
- will end sometime in the 30th
- century. After all, he's been right
- about everything else he predicted
- so far..... Or if this Meteor were
- to collide, we are told that the
- only survivors would be those who
- hid in deep underground caves, or
- nuclear shelters.. But surley if
- something 1/3 the size of this
- planet were to hit us, would it not
- send the earth spinning out of it's
- orbit?
-
- ...... Anyhow, if you want to
- write to me (GUZ) for any reason
- then write to
