Happy Holidays Card

Just giving my Mac a bit of a workout as I am under lift restriction
after a hernia op.
Just playing..I'll be getting to the more serious stuff in the next
couple of days.
This new office Mac is 77 times faster than my old G3 450Mhz, which 7
years ago was a monster.
For a quarter of the price.

I'm just happy he properly capitolized "Mac". "MAC" stands for Media
Access Control, which is a low level network issue. (Sometimes you'll
hear about MAC addresses, that's one of the things it does.) ;-)

So, is this using the GraphiteOneCAD software? I tried getting it to run
on my Linux system with no joy. Tried re-compiling the libraries and
pretty much had to throw in the towel, life is too short for that.
Downloaded the VariCAD demo -- it's looking pretty promising, but I have
quite a bit more to do before I pull the trigger to buy it. It certainly
won't do the kind of rendering you showed above.

I bet you miss all those calendars since you left the automotive

Oh, and careful what you wish for, Grolsch is Dutch and that's a very

Who knows what they consider attractive. She/he/it could be of any

Pirelli used to have some incredible babes on their calendars. My
buddy used to get those and I found myself chewing on my knuckles on a
few occasions.... gasping for air.

Great ... until you look down and see hairier legs than mine under the panty
hose.

Maybe times have changed?

Trouble with 'em is that "liquor's quicker" doesn't work on 'em--they
can drink me under the table and still be sober enough to drive home.

You've clearly got something that does a nice job of rendering. I'm
curious as to what you're using.

"Robatoy" showed us some fancy computer images

Looks nice, that is a very realistic looking bottle.

I notice that your lift restrictions extend to the illustrations as well.
There are no granite counter tops!
