FAT story

//Well, it's writing...

Pretty sure there is already a function for this in the C /C* librarys. Unless I appear to be missing some vital point...

haha, maybe yes. I did get one code similar to this, the one with more complexity.

I dunno, but i like to carving things again.

Looks like the lyrics to a Kraftwerk Song

[Hmmm]
