I don't remember anyone here saying he was Malaysian. But you're probably not the only one from CodeGuru.

Anyway, welcome.

Welcome shahnk,
and welcome to any malaysian.
I don't know much about malaysia. Except that most of the country in on a island and I think the capital city is not on the island. Then there is a big difference between living on the continent or on the island.
Is that true Shahnk? How is your country?

Malaysia consist of 14 states and 2 of them in on the borneo island. the island actually shared by the countries, Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia.

Well, there is not much difference between the island and the continent, except the continent is far more developed econimically,
But actually the two states on the island is the best tourist atraction in malaysia, though i only been the once..

And yes,(Kuala Lumpur) the capital is in the continent. its in between singapore and thailand.

Am i gone crazy? or I'm bored to death? Either way, if I keep this up, I'll have to find myself another job..

Shhhhhhhh!! got to go. My bos is coming...

It's kindof strange knowing that this thread contains stuff we said two years ago ;)

yes, where's Xeon. Wasn't he suppose to join the army? How long is it for him?

As far as I remember it was 18 months, but if you feel courageous, you might search for it ^^ (there must be gazillions of posts about this already ;) )

AAAh, I found it. It's actually two years and since he was drafted on June 28th 2003, that will mean 2005. Oh boy am I lucky to be citizen of a small country surrounded by big powerful countries who protect us, and Belgium.

I'm sorry Gabriel. As far as I remember you live quite a long way from Villars (you live in the Weird-German-Speaking part, no?).

So what's new with you? You have been silent for a while...

Where do you live exactly? My cousin lived in Salzburg for some time and I had no trouble understanding that. My sister lives in Zurich and I can definitely say that I don't understand much swiss-german ;)

Krenglbach, that's a small village near Wels, it's famouse cause there is a little zoo in it :)

@Mick: No, there is no turtle :(

Salzburg? My sister studies there and she said that the most Salzburger speak "Hochdeutsch" (****, I don't know the english word for it, sry) so it's no problem. I can give you an example of my "bad" german, if you want ... ;)

I don't know Wels, but I do know Linz, which is a bit to the North-East. I'm sorry to disappoint you, I don't know the Wels zoo either. ;)

Maybe its time to make a new poll.. how bout "What Gender You Are?" .

even its obvious that 98.999% of gurus here are men, why don't give it a try. it would be suprising to see girls into programming actually! Even in my office, only 2 girls, compared to the those men in here..those men actually make me sick!! It actually a pleasure working with girls..pretty girls of course..:D

Wels ... *hm* A bit more in south, and its an ugly city ;) (huh: I'm working there ...) and it's zoo isn't good either.

@Tom and Mick: But I fear these emus, I think they want to control the entire world! :eek: ;)

If somebody want to visit this zoo, come and visit me too, this village is soooo boring ...

Okay I have a real question for all the Russians out there... the written language is cyrillic, right? I have a Russian friend who claims this isn't true... I need to know if she's yanking my chain or not. I've always thought both of the above to be true. :rolleyes: :confused:

I'm not a russian, but afaik they are using the cyrillic (spelling?) alphabet, along with the bulgarians, ukrainians and a couple of other countries. Now one probably could argue whether the term "cyrillic" is 100% correct. Fact is thet it isn't the western alphabet (nor the greek one, by that matter).

Well, so your friend is a girl, isn't she? ;) U have grown Solar... umm I remember U were a child running around... opsss :rolleyes:
Well, for the sake of clarity, I'm not a russian, but I speak/write Russian.
Yes, Belarussian, Ukraine, Russian languages are cyrillic family.
There are some character coddings for these languages (koi8-r, cp1251, ...), but that doesn't bother the fact that these languages are cyrillic.
