125 He saw her coming. On the main deck of the ship, making ready for
|
|||
|
|
126 planetfall, she came. The crowded deck filled with pilgrims and crew, a
|
|||
|
|
127 bustle of prepatory activity. He waited. Feeling something. Not knowing
|
|||
|
|
128 what. Her look. An aura. She was closer. He stood still. His body was
|
|||
|
|
129 weightless. A cast for emotion and feeling. And she came to him.
|
|||
|
|
130 Their hands clasp. Her touch. Fire beyond anything felt before. He knew.
|
|||
|
|
131 This time was not before. It was new. It was now. He tightened. Her eyes
|
|||
|
|
132 widened. A smile. Wrinkles of joy erupted. A laugh. She drew his hands
|
|||
|
|
133 forward. He could walk again. He stumbled, but he held fast. He did not
|
|||
|
|
134 fall. He was still weightless. She looked up into his eyes. Eyes never
|
|||
|
|
135 blinking. He dove in her eyes. The wonder of her face, those eyes, the
|
|||
|
|
136 smile, radiance.
|
|||
|
|
137 The come closer still. Her knee and his shin. Thighs. Body to body.
|
|||
|
|
138 A kiss. Eyes closed. Bright lights. Flashes. He floated now. Her breathing
|
|||
|
|
139 filled his ears. Her hungry mouth filled his thoughts. They clung to and
|
|||
|
|
140 on each other. One moment. A feeling, deep, understanding, borne and
|
|||
|
|
141 shared by both. She squeezed him. Her arms wrapped around her waist. She
|
|||
|
|
142 pulled back, slowly, unwrapping. Opened eyes, she looked into him. He into
|
|||
|
|
143 her. She stepped back. He was frozen. She held his hands. Longing. She
|
|||
|
|
144 let go. A smile.
|
|||
|
|
145 She turned to go. Looking back, golden hair falling softly on her
|
|||
|
|
146 shoulder, she whispered, "Yes."
|
|||
|
|
147 He stood there for a moment, watching her walking through the crowds
|
|||
|
|
148 in the hall. Parting humanity, so natural for her, he thought. She said
|
|||
|
|
149 yes. Wonderful word yes. Yes means so much. Yes, I am alive.
|
|||
|
|
150 Another claxon. One thousand eyes look upward. Red lights. He knew
|
|||
|
|
151 what it meant. He had overheard two crewmen describing the Alert System.
|
|||
|
|
152 She was not visible now. Everyone was scrambling. Crew pushed through to
|
|||
|
|
153 their stations. He pushed too. Yes, he had to find her.

194 She walks down the sidewalk a smile caressing her lips. She is happy
|
|||
|
|
195 and oblivious to the torrmented worlds of those she passes by. Her hand
|
|||
|
|
196 clasps his in a firm familar style, swinging in time to her step. The joy
|
|||
|
|
197 of being alive and the happiness she feels glows like an auroa about her.
|
|||
|
|
198 The lonely people with their misserable lives she passes shink back
|
|||
|
|
199 against the wall. They throw their hands up to hide from the brilliance of
|
|||
|
|
200 the joy she eminates.
|
|||
|
|
201 I knew her, and I was one of those who hide at the side. Her joy was
|
|||
|
|
202 my missery. I use to be the one at her side. It use to be me who's hand
|
|||
|
|
203 she held. It was I who she graced with that smile. Now I am on the
|
|||
|
|
204 outside. I am a grain of sand, alone in the faceless crowd.
|

|
|
205 It was dark out and rain pelted at the window. The street lamps shown
|
|||
|
|
206 in fragmented streams on the pavement. The distant wail of a train was
|
|||
|
|
207 overridden by the clock striking the hour of three in the morning.
|
|||
|
|
208 I let the curtain fall back over the window and lay back down on my
|
|||
|
|
209 bed. The dream had come again.

334 I'm sick and tired of all these Backwater peoples groaning about what a waste
|
|||
|
|
335 of space this is and what a waste of space that is. Does it really annoy you
|
|||
|
|
336 so much that you have to bitch??? Case in point: Darbon's entry above.
|
|||
|
|
337 This Darbon character makes me sick too. He tries to keep up this facade of
|
|||
|
|
338 being an old-timer, experienced veteran, been-through-the-wars-of-
|
|||
|
|
339 telecommunication, know-it-all-about-BWMS jerk. But isn't that what Backwater
|
|||
|
|
340 is all about; seeing who can seem most superior to everyone else? Look, Darbon
|
|||
|
|
341 you may consider yourself an old-timer, but I *know* I've been on Backwater
|
|||
|
|
342 a much longer time than you have (several years), so don't be trying to impress
|
|||
|
|
343 me with this condescending whattawaste and I'm a veteran attitude. I've heard
|
|||
|
|
344 it so many times before here (Yes, *I* am a veteran) that I've had enough.
|
|||
|
|
345 I hope everybody realizes that I've just singled Darbon out. There are many,
|
|||
|
|
346 many more 'patrons' of the Inn whose my comments also apply to. If you feel
|
|||
|
|
347 like flaming me for my bad punctuation, choice of words, etc... don't bother.
|
|||
|
|
348 I freely admit it is bad in this yet another piece of trash on the compost heap.

|
|||
|
|
514 First of all, you take your Apple //c and use either the puree or the
|
|||
|
|
515 spin cycle on it for nearly an hour. Try to clean the bits of plastic and
|
|||
|
|
516 Malaysian high-tech out of the plastic parts or the metal bin. Be sure not to
|
|||
|
|
517 leave an electrical charge working at any stage!
|
|||
|
|
518 Then, go to father. Tell him a story. A long one. All about a decent
|
|||
|
|
519 kid who tried to do his laundry and homework in one shot. Make it a good one
|
|||
|
|
520 so that he will reward you with an IBM PC AT or a prototype AT&T 3B series
|
|||
|
|
521 computer. Thank him, just for loving you.
|
|||
|
|
522 Take the IBM PC AT and offer to balance vthe check-books of several
|
|||
|
|
523 rich Portland area women. Primarily from the Dunthorp area. Either embezzle
|
|||
|
|
524 or black-mail your way into several hundreds of thousands of dollars.
|
|||
|
|
525 Don't worry any about your conscience! The aristocracy has enough money from
|
|||
|
|
526 Pacific Rim investments and Opium sales that the strength of the Illuminati
|
|||
|
|
527 will not be in question.
|
|||
|
|
528 Next, purchase the Cray company. It might be tough, but arrange
|
|||
|
|
529 through the area hospitals of the Cray installations to change the routine
|
|||
|
|
530 dosages for unhealthy workers to a highly addictive narcotic of your choice.
|
|||
|
|
531 This is where the power of the IBM PC AT shines through. Your skills at the
|
|||
|
|
532 world of modems and strange user interfaces is vital! This will be tough, but
|
|||
|
|
533 once you've cleared this hurtle, see to the installation of the newest model
|
|||
|
|
534 of the Cray computers. In your bedroom maybe.
|

|
|
535 Port ProDOS and BASIC to the Cray. This might seem a little idiotic at
|
|||
|
|
536 first, but don't worry. No one is foolish enough to criticize you at this
|
|||
|
|
537 stage of the game. If they are, addict them to the same narcotic you used on
|
|||
|
|
538 the executives at Cray. If they happen to be skilled programmers, their
|
|||
|
|
539 addiction will help you do the file conversion you asked about.

546 Le Marquis, your entry was a bit rough in places, but I and others were laughing
|
|||
|
|
547 most all the way though. I especially like the porting of Applesoft to the Cray.

596 Why would we be upset at you for mentioning 8-bit machines? *BACKWATER* is
|
|||
|
|
597 an 8-bit machine (w 8k of ROM & 1k of RAM). This board *is* the operating
|
|||
|
|
598 system.
|
|||
|
|
599 The objections tend to be to C-64, Apple, & Atari 'users'. Due to the low
|
|||
|
|
600 prices those machines tend to belong to types that barely know how to call
|
|||
|
|
601 a BBS, much less program! Those are also the people who think that 'trash-
|
|||
|
|
602 ing' a board makes them a 'hacker' (and thus due respect).
|
|||
|
|
603 If you are even thinking about board or chip level trouble shooting of your
|
|||
|
|
604 system, you aren't one of the idiots we flame so often. (of course you
|
|||
|
|
605 *still* might be ill-mannered, but for some strange reason few people who
|
|||
|
|
606 can really use these machines seem to be all that immature)
