That's from her tour of Siberia. I think they turn the heat off at her concerts to create that effect.

I know this story!
...so anyway the Great Depression started and Pembleton started shining people's shoes for money. Five cents a shine he got, which was a lot in those days. You could take the train to San Francisco, rent an aer-o-plane and buy Norway with a nickel back then. So anyways, Pembleton got his 64K RAM computer, complete with 10-foot floppy drive and 2 (count them, 2) 8-byte disks. Of course, with that computer, you could do anything: type a resume, type a report, type an article, type a short story, type a poem, the possibilities were endless! So anyway, he attached a onion to his belt, which was the style at the time. Of course, it was one of the big white ones, you couldn't get the yella ones because of the war...
Anyway, I just dreamt about Civ3 last night!
It was a pretty short as it was sandwiched between other things I was doing that I don't remember, but I was getting frustrated with the free worker at the beginning of the game because I was telling him to irrigate but he kept doing strange things like changing the square to a desert, etc. I also remember looking for the right hotkeys so he would stop doing that, since I think I was pressing "i" each time to do it.Comment

That was probably because CivIII has different shortcuts. Instead of "Irrigate", "i" now stands for "Irritate player" command.Originally posted by Pembleton

You were lucky that the worker did not destroy city walls.
