          Because life is sitting in the flight,

          slightly soar - again in the manure,

          seriously mind only one

          who are not excessively severe.


   From the Editor:


   What is the "Boat"? This is a strategy game created by game 
Luhansk maker'om - Alexander Sizenko. Unfortunately, Alexander 
could not find a sufficient number of distributors for its 
program, so we want to appeal to all readers of "pages" of the 
magazine: hold the author, if not financially, then at least 
mentally! Toys something worthwhile ... Do not believe me - See 
demo in the Appendix. 



   Already nearing completion of my first
play "Soldiers" I had the idea realization on the Spectrum of a 
new project. Work on it lasted about six months. And in One 
fine morning I called Dimona - local implementers of software.


   - Hello.

   - Hi, Dimon.

   - And, Sanya! Where have you been? - And me
brought down a flurry of news. I listen to, though I can not 
wait until the end. Finally withstand and interrupting.


   - A game I made.

   - Oh! What do you call?

   - Boats - and hear how Dimona started
strangle fit of laughter, and he slowly and surely
began to crawl under the table.

   I am puzzled.

   Finally he managed to squeeze out:

   - Next is your game will be called
"Cars"? ..

   What is the idea! And we have some time
do their own thing: I'm thinking "a new project," he continued 
laughing. Agree to meet at the next market. I offer a demo, it 
develops branded stickers. Meet. "I accept." A week later, it 
turns out that the title mistake, and now the "Boat" with a 
light feed Dimona in Lugansk name is not otherwise as Korbliki. 
Well, I do not care: even though "Korbliki," although 
"Gorbliki. Oh! Idea! Little humpbacked creatures, armed to the 
teeth, to invade Earth ... 

   Started to distribute the demo version. Threw her on all the 
networks, piled one and all correspondence. Even wrote a friend

sinkleristke from Vietnam ...


   Now Guess what was
further:

 a) we are inundated with letters and proposals
    mi, even had to temporarily hire a sec
    retarshu;
 b) stretched an endless stream of saddle
    transitions. I became rich. All sinkleristy

    Lugansk drank themselves from the frequent parties and

    nominations;
 c) in my mailbox brazen spider platted

    web and no longer runs into the corner,

    I ocherednoy time with a boring view

    looked back.


    No remark.


   Long or a short wait if it lasted, but a wonderful day it was
interrupted, but did not signal INT, a call from
Dimona is the same: to him it's three
letters! I'm just not getting sentimental with emotion ... 
Among these letters was guess From whom? .. No, not by Clive 
Sinclair, and from Editorial "ZX Power"!



   Very big thanks ...


   But it could not have changed the terrible
revenge, matures in me. "Ah so! - I thought. - Then get 
Korabliki nothing!" 


   So at this point I think to put them in any e-zine.
Negotiations are already underway.



   Finally, in order to brighten up a more pessimistic story, I 
would like give you a couple of jokes.



                  *


   The inscription on the monitor PC: "Please wait. The 
computer is ready to hang ..." 


                  *


   Enraged neighbors at three o'clock starts frantically 
banging on the wall: 

   - If you now do not stop playing DOOM - I will go mad!

   - I'm already two hours as I do not play ...


                  *


   Buddy went home for the programmer
new prog and see how a small twin room romp.

   Programmer, holding two floppy disks: "I
Always back up ... "


                  *


   - Is it true that Bill Gates is the most famous man in the 
world? 

   - True. But his mother remembers much more ...
