Hi,

this is mainly for those who have flat access to Internet, and most likely not at work in the Army/AF/etc ...

Have you seen this site yet? It's a free Billard program with really nice gfx and just about any style and rule available (8ball, 9ball, rotation, Snooker, etc.) ... you can play it offline (even rather moderate size installer @ 12MB), but the fun comes playing online via the server against other people ... (given that most folks aren't really located close to each other here)

Anybody up for a match?

I wanted to type "yes" but then I saw that it apparently doesn't run under NT? Yes I still have NT at work and I won't change it (just recently I've heard that the IDEs of other people here crash under XP/2000, mine never ever did)...

Why play online when you have a real table (and can drink a few beers at the same time)........

As I said, most of the folks here are a bit further away from each other ...

I interpret Stef's post as an invitation to organize an F-Body cruise to Ingolstadt for a personally delivered tour of operations and plants then beer and billards at his house.

Is my German spot on or what?

BTW, just got back from the Ingolstadt / Frankfurt Hockey game. Fucking Ingolstadt won. :evil:

I think your German is very spot on! (at least somebody can read between the lines...)

Can be done. I still have my connections.
Tours are from Mondays to Fridays, no weekends (both Porsche and Audi). Just say when.
