Well, it depends on the destination, usually.  But in this particular 
case, the journey's the point - because we all *know* the destination.

Bugger! I meant Jonson as in:

Even if Baldric did so. There are plenty in America. It is used to help 
determine the meanings of the words at the time of your constitution.

My turn to use the "S" word again.

Jimmy is a signifier that someone is from Glasgow. Every second person, 
including women, is called Jimmy.

As long as you have a "y" or "ie" at the end of your name. It is okay.
Stevie is acceptable.

I've used it a couple of times to see what it is like. The problem for 
me is that it is slow and grainy. I would rater use what little skils I 
have with materials in PovRay.

There is an exporter in development. I was helping to test it before I

You have to increase the number of iterations to get it to look less 
grainy.  There's a setting for that, both in preview and in a final 
render.

Which is where an nVidia GPU comes in - it's capable of rendering the 
image to a high quality *very* quickly.  CPU rendering is incredibly slow 
by comparison.

Ah, well, you know how well *that* is working out for us now.  Words only 
mean what's convenient for our personal opinions and views these days.  
Free speech, for example, is for those who think everyone should say 
"Merry Christmas" this time of year, regardless of their personal 
beliefs.  It's not for people who wish others "Happy Holidays".

Or it's for people who say bigoted things, not for those who would make a 
value judgment and respond "hey, that's a bigoted thing, and free speech 
doesn't mean 'speech without consequences'."

Well, yeah, but we don't exactly have the RSC here in Utah.  Though we do 
have an annual Shakespeare festival in the southern part of the state.

Hehehehehe.  It was also a nickname I had when I was a young'un.

I hope so, because that was a nickname my little brother had when *he* 
was a young'un.  His proper name is also spelled the same way yours is - 
the number of times he was erroneously called "Stephanie" as a result is 
legendary.

Yes but since I will be using PovRay. I just use the internal renderer 
as a low quality setting.

Hmmm, this one took a little thought, as Bond Street was something I 
hadn't considered.

But in honour of the St. Paul Winter Carnival (which is from near where 
I'm originally from) and the ice castles they build for the event....

Crystal Palace.

You got there quickly what with it being south of the river and no tube 
line. And taxies never venture south of the river.

Although it does give me the link of the Great Exhibition and Prince Albert.

Prince Albert Memorial (in the park).

I've got a spare bicycle if you want to borrow it or the Feegle might

Well, true, it's an overground route.  Given some of the locations we've 
been to, though, that didn't seem relevant in this game. :)

Actually, I think it's your move after Stephen's.  Yes, I'm pretty sure, 
otherwise I'd be taking two turns in a row - and *I* don't want to end up 
in Huff.

It had better be the scooter because the last time I rode a push bike in 
the centre of Hammersmith. I was petrified.

Fresh mango, hmm!
Did I ever tell you about taking smoke breaks under a mango tree, when I 
was working in Jamaica?

It was next to the changing rooms and at shift change. The smell of 
ganja would knock you down and make you happy.

Mango, I can get.

I invoke Humphrey's Final Ruling - there is no Huff on Xmas Eve.

is.

Or shall we all just simultaneously move to Mornington Crescent? :)
