Marvin, and other Parkie Party People <grin> .. Ya told us what it's called, and where it's gonna be at, and what time to be there (give or take a bit), BUT.... for those of us who'd like to join in the merriment and festivities (and who also have a Web browser!), but haven't a CLUE as to how to get ONTO the Undernet (love that name - but what does it MEAN?) <smile>.... well.. how about explicit directions?? Thanks mucho....

Hmmmm..... Pin the tail on the donkey? Nope, the donkey might get hurt. worse yet, house broken donkeys are hard to come by. Cards? Possible, but not enought time to do right by the graphics. Domminos or a variant there of? Maybe. Have program, but it cheats and have not found the bug yet. Spin the.....Not! Must keep it clean and, well, clean. Sc.....Yes! Just the thing! Challenging, clean, safe, (no pins pointed at large objects). Rules are simple. Objects required? Internet access, Mirc or Ircle or some other program/client which will grant access to an Undernet Server. A web browser such as Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer. Oh yes! Almost forgot! *chuckle* You need the name of the meeting place. #parkinsons on the Undernet. Gee! Sounds kinda poetic, don't it? Mind the spelling now. As with getting to Neverland, you must pay attention to details. Its not #parkysons, or #parknsons, or #parkasons, or #perkinsons, or #peekinsons, or #porkinsons, or #pickinsons. One of these might get you envolved with someone who wants to date yer brother/sister. Another may introduce you to Mr. Park, his son, and thier small business. Still another may introduce you to a lot of people with parka fixations. Perky people are greate, but you'll miss the party. Peeking people? The act or the city? Pork, while nice, cannot be enjoyed by everyone. I'll leave the last to your immagination. *grin* The one you want is #parkinsons, on the undernet, August 20th, starting around 1200, noon Central Standard Time. A little early, or fashionably late.....your choice. Now, where did i............? Marvin/WerPuppy/WerBeagle
