                         Serpukhov and we

                    Alon Coders at large

                       or ParaDigMus'03

                        (Two words)


   Could entitle it "How we went to the paradigm, but
Unfortunately, things turned around so that I went alone.
At a crucial moment - the day June 27, 2003 - Chapaya phone was 
busy, so I instead called Shiru Otaku for clarification 
partyplace and partyprice (fact in itself humorous, if we note 
that Shiru, unlike me, do not live in Ryazan) and sailed the 
last train. Morning train on June 28 did not allowed to reach 
in time. 


   In Moscow, I described the day before, in fact, was not.
The first impression of the entrance to the city left a 
turnstile at the exit from the station, which had yet to be 
able to use it. Little who use it honestly:) crawl under the 
frame much faster than learning in any of four possible 
positions should be the ticket and in which of the two - the 
button:) 

   Way from Kazan to the Kursk railway station you think is not 
interested. Personally, I have this lyrics obchitalsya. No only 
did not pay note - how hard to understand that the mind of 
Moscow's traffic lights, especially if there is no nearby 
pedestrian walkway:    So, we in Serpukhov. (So ​​fast? A then 
x) 


   We are in Serpukhov, without passengers, have closed the 
station and, accordingly, nochyu.Gde somewhere between one and 
two chasami.Protsess that will perform over the next seven 
hours, called cuckoo. Cuckoo, I got no education ...


   No matter how warm was the night, sleep in the open air
nothing good is not threatened. Building of Teachers' Training 
Institute, I found in fifteen minutes, but a great happiness to 
me it is not delivered - it was closed, as befits a decent 
agency in the dark ... 

   At the entrance I catch besprozornye boys (I'm on them
escaped. maybe they are still puzzled how I did it). So the 
idea to sleep on the stairs had to be put to rest. A walk seven 
o'clock kushamshi not bad - try it! In short, sleep That night 
I did not have to, I stood her on the porch of the very 
Institute until brightened. Morning opened the station, where I 
warmed up some and waited for the morning rain. Nobody at the 
station from organizers and participants did not come. It's a 
shame. 

   Returning to college, I finally found an open door. In the 
lobby Cusick spoke with vahtershey and drank tea. I poured 
too:) 

   So we have to the party. Almost;)


   We at the party, but organizers still do not. With their 
appearance, we rose in the assembly hall on the second floor. 
Where I soon had pleasure to shake paws Mitchell and Breeze. 
Breeze is not just me solved.


   Next: Cusick went back to bed in his cell, consistent with 
vahtershey (Cell called 6b, it is in it, he spent the previous 
night), but bedtime told me to read five or seven rooms

"Paragraph" sold Breeze. Subsequently, Cusick has repeatedly 
drawn attention to the newspapers differed very well. 

   Organizers published a strange paper and tossed something 
out Ineta; recorded work, read my, but tried and could not read 
a five inch floppy Cusick, something connected, but unnoticed.


   I got acquainted with Cr0acker'om and sprinter, Ra.id 'om
(Persuaded me to go to the party), and Muscovites EA (my 
sister) and STS'om. Maxim ran Timonin, sat next to Kano; 
arrived at midday, surprising, Slash; a little later - that 
looked wildly ptsshniki from Moscow, including Sunman and Manwe 
... Maybe it was later. Until then, remember, we razrovarivali 
in the breeze on Twilight, the structure of the HPFS and the 
advantages of hard drive IBM (other People also praised me, and 
WD, and Seagate:)). 

   And tickets were sold in the lobby - we sat in the hall! I 
had to go to the intermission - to buy:) But ptsshnyh magazines 
issued at the hands of the mountain. But you have to show them 
I can not, selected Drunk STS. [However, I am not sorry for 
them rasstatsya.Ya barely freed from the burden of 
questionnaires The Compo 2 - fill in if their someone of those 
to whom I gave them? - and I had to put in a bag profik 
Cr0acker'a. More precisely, it is not him:) In short, he told 
me it gave the curtain parties.]


   Celebration, however, began only with the arrival of the 
leading - D-Juice. Still at the microphone were at different 
hours: Promus, Cusick and STS. Organization party took place 
quite by accident, without a common scenario. Slowly, pieces of 
5, all day long twisted ptsshnuyu music. It was not known how 
much her, as the screw, it represents the catalog by author 
name. Toward the middle of the party I even offered to do it 
preselektom not hurt, however, present. Cost. The sound was 
bad, but became clearer when burned power and hooked up the TV 
speakers. TV was good. Unfortunately, local speakers for a long 
time used it as a board and scratched in chalk.


   STS performed with the microphone three times. He proclaimed 
the ZX-Net, mentioned the good word of Spectrum and offered a 
drink. Unfortunately, Wild Compo not to vote. 

   Cusick led the ZX part, and perhaps the entire second half 
of the party. No He was unable to avoid losing the prize 
pictures and the only program that pretends to be the demo. 

   ZX to the TV, and even the columns do not connect Cr0acker'u
failed. Gorgeous compo-viewer Newart'a was unclaimed, and oh, 
I'm afraid at Cafe gentlemen former sceners hardening 1999 , 
the re-run the old player Ivan Roshchina. 

   I remember how Cr0acker dragged me into the street in the 
midst pc music compo seek soda. And he poured me a pocket of 
coins, I subsequently spent on bread, long distance, metro 
cards, and even packet - already in Ryazan:) 

   I remember as a man with glasses asked about the Speccy 
screen and the ability of ray tracing. 

   I remember as a dispute about the need whether RAR on ZX. 
(News in connection with his appearance.)


   I remember how, after the party organizers have long puzzled,
why sent from FIVE SIX Mouzon scrolled%). As a result,
agreed on the fact that EA has won two first places:]

   More nichchego not remember.

   We spent the night (I Cusick - the rest had left) for one 
good person, a PhD ... I have not had time to write down the 
address ... He gave me a floppy with Profi CP / M, and in the 
morning showed the city. K Sorry, did not show four-meter chair.


   So, we are again in Moscow ...


   Arriving without a ticket (and it cost at that time 42 
rubles), after long-term study Cusick my registration card in 
Moscow 1987 year, we slipped through the turnstile of the same 
species, which at the Kazan station, then the subway and on 
foot - got home Shiru Otaku. Alexander Sergeyevich was a 
sleepy, for such a profession - Virtual Software in the 
internet ... 

   Closer to the night we looked for Vlodek, then returned; 
Cusick went to sleep, we with Shiru talked about world 
problems, this morning I moved to Ryazan, and went to bed at 
night I caught up with Cusick, and rested a couple of hours, 
went to the next train, at this party, we can say, and ended.


   End.
