yep can't deny that.. she was really good looking. ages ago..
Oh, I was talking mostly about the face. Whatever she did with the face has seriously backfired.
you got me!!
promise accepted!
Yup. Shouldn't have done too much botox I am guessing. It has affected her acting skills as well, almost 0 expression on face
This thread is like the sourh pole of the magnet and we all are north poles
Not needed anymore i guess. Since you are here as well
Hey, bchot, how do you feel about taking this thread to page 800? Can we both do that?
well to use dialup you needed a modem.. BBS is Bulletin Board System, it's like a forum in text mode..
was..
then i joined FIDONET, had my own node at home, participated in echoes (like forum again, just all over the world).. modems were used to exchange those posts in echoes. and then central hubs would exchange with hubs in other cities.. it sounds cumbersome, but happened very fast.. and those who were hubs - they usually were somehow connected to avoid paying city -to city calling fees. and eventually they switched to exchanging all posts and stuff via internet.. and finally fidonet became obsolete.. it still exists tho, i think,..,
USSR ended in 91. I came to USA in 2001. i grew up in Russia. it was not so great.. otherwise i wouldn't be where i am now..
and yes, they did. starting even earlier in 1st grade in school you became OCTOBER-something, cause the great revolution happened in october back in 1917 or something like that.. when communists took over Russia, made it into Soviet Union, and Lenin was in charge for a few years.. i;m sure you can read about it from trusted sources..
backfired all around..
true that! she is not the Nicole we learned to love..
tomorrow - maybe.. but tonight - i am off to bed.. it's time.. feed the cats one last supper, and sleep.
good night
I believe I saw something of the sorts you mention in Young Sheldon where he gets access to a computer.
Was the life of a common man that difficult back in USSR days, like North Korea kinda restcictions?
Yah, we learned about the Bolshevik revolution and such. But, what are you taught in schools like Das Kapital or Communist Manifesto. Or, some version of these texts modified for the Russian context?
Yes, I mean, it's true. She just got lucky that her role in Special Ops required a stone-faced senior operative.
Yup! I loved her in the older movies. She also acted in the movie Lion, which is a real story about a kid who got lost in India, was adopted by a couple in Australia, and based on his vague memory and Google Earth, found his long-lost family. Great watch. Dev Patel plays the actual person.
Okay, will see you soon then.
Good night, baki dreams
I can virtually babysit for free.
Do let us know if she found her soul. Well, it's tru though that foreigners generally come to India in search of themselves.
Oh, you are moving to the US? Awesome, most of the thread is moving to the US. Maybe someday, if I get to the US, we could have kinda like a RackNerd reunion at the RN HQ.
Yah, I am guessing you will be moving with the kid.
Why not though? Is it because you feel the American education system is not as good as yours? You might not be wrong though.
Ok, I am guessing you are concerned about American schools (valid though).
See you soon, Pink dino.
Which one exactly? I have a huge backlog of Indian shows and movies to watch on NF as well.
