[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:13 PM] <Evie> hi KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:14 PM] <Annie> hi KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:19 PM] <Shiral> Hello Katherine
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:21 PM] <KK> Hello, folks.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:22 PM] <DesertRose> Hi KK, Hi Jerusha.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:23 PM] * Jerusha offers a plate of still warm M&M cookies
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:24 PM] <jemler> hi kk
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:30 PM] <Jerusha> Hi KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:36 PM] <Shiral> Wow, my author traps worked really fast
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:41 PM] <DesertRose> No kidding, Shiral.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:45 PM] <KK> Evie, hos's the shoulder?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:04:56 PM] <KK> how's
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:06 PM] <Evie> It's doing a little better, though now I've got a cold
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:17 PM] <Jerusha> That's not fair, Evie

[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:25 PM] <KK> Winter colds. Yuck!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:29 PM] <Shiral> One darn thing after another
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:45 PM] <Evie> at least I've not needed my painkiller to go to sleep the last two days...since the cough medicine has codeine in it
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:05:48 PM] <jemler> hi mib
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:04 PM] Nick mib_51rj2w is now known as The_Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:06 PM] <KK> Aha, codeine cough syrup is great!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:08 PM] <DesertRose> Hi Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:13 PM] <Jerusha> Hi Bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:16 PM] <Annie> hi Bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:24 PM] <Shiral> Hello Bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:30 PM] <Evie> hi Bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:06:40 PM] <DesertRose> Well, codeine cough syrup is fine if you don't have a codeine allergy.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:02 PM] <The_Bee> Hi all. I'm using my backup computer,which doehave mIRC.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:15 PM] <jemler> hi bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:21 PM] <Jerusha> Something wrong with the main computer, Bee?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:25 PM] <Shiral> Mibbit seems to be behaving better this week
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:32 PM] <KK> Yes, and I don't, and that's what it takes to knock down the cough reflex, when I've got a bad cold.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:38 PM] <jemler> don't jinx it!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:48 PM] <Shiral> Oops, my bad
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:59 PM] <Evie> It doesn't knock out my throat tickle, but it suppresses t a little bit
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:07:59 PM] <jemler> i've got nyquil.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:08:25 PM] <Evie> and it makes me drowsy enough to fall asleep quickly, at which point I don't know if I still cough or not, but I don't care
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:08:38 PM] <Jerusha> Sleep is good
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:08:40 PM] <The_Bee> II downloaded some malware in my PC. Now I can't start my PC til I remove the malware, and I can't remove the malware til I start my PC.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:08:43 PM] <jemler> i told the others i'm on an antibiotic thats costs $4300
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:08:48 PM] <DesertRose> It'll break your give-a-damn for sure.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:01 PM] <DesertRose> (Codeine cough syrup, I mean.)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:05 PM] <Evie> LOL, DR
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:12 PM] <Shiral> I recommend Chinese Hot and Sour Soup It may not cure the common cold, but it feels very comforting on the way down
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:22 PM] <Jerusha> I prefer whiskey
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:27 PM] <DesertRose> Hot toddies.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:43 PM] <jemler> belly up to the bar! jerushs's buying!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:45 PM] <Annie> I'm just googling - never come across codeine cough syrup before
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:09:51 PM] <Jerusha> Say what??
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:08 PM] <Shiral> Why Jerusha, you sweet thing. =o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:13 PM] <KK> Most prescription cough syrups have it, Annie.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:17 PM] <The_Bee> I'm thinking of getting a new PC. My laptop has its own problems.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:20 PM] <DesertRose> Codeine makes a very good cough medicine, if you're not allergic to it the way I am.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:37 PM] <Evie> Hydrocodone, Annie?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:10:42 PM] <Annie> that will be it. I've only ever used OTC cough stuff before
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:11:00 PM] <Shiral> KK, how is your father doing this week?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:11:06 PM] <DesertRose> Oh yeah, it's a controlled substance, so it's prescription only in the US, probably also in the UK.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:11:34 PM] <Evie> Yes, codeine is a prescription drug, so usually doctors only prescribe it if over the counter stuff isn't strong enough
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:11:40 PM] <KK> He's still in rehab, feeling puny, no great change that I can discern. Don't know what's going to happen next.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:11:54 PM] <DesertRose> Aw. I'm sorry he's not feeling better.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:12:20 PM] <The_Bee> my favorite hot toddie: cider, lemon and brandy or rum.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:12:22 PM] <KK> On the other hand, he tends to look at the half-empty glass, so that may be part of it.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:12:43 PM] <Evie> Hopefully his glass will fill up more soon, then, so to speak
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:12:44 PM] <Shiral> And when you're in the hospital, that tendency can be pronounced
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:03 PM] <Evie> I've been using a Throat Coat tea with honey also, Bee
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:23 PM] <The_Bee> does it work?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:30 PM] <Evie> r just straight honey
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:33 PM] <jemler> it's easy to be depressed in a hospital.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:37 PM] <Evie> It helps ease the throat tickle a bit
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:40 PM] * Jerusha envisions a tiny coat wrapped around Evie's throat
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:46 PM] <DesertRose> Hot tea with lemon and honey is good for coughs. Kiddo's been drinking that constantly for the last week.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:13:51 PM] <Evie> LOL, Jerusha!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:14:16 PM] <Shiral> Evie thanks for the Pinterest Tile roof tutorial, BTW. But for the life of me, I can't see how anyone can get wall putty to the consistency of milk! I tried today--epic fail
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:14:23 PM] <KK> Yep. Or rehab. They have no phones in the rooms; just a single cordless phone that gets passed around. Makes it hard to get through to him.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:14:48 PM] <Shiral> Lack of communication definitely makes it hard
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:14:54 PM] <Jerusha> He's not in prison, right?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:15:08 PM] <Shiral> Or in a Dickensian work house?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:15:12 PM] <Evie> Not even whole milk, Shiral? Not that I can imagine that either, unless it's cut down quite a bit
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:15:20 PM] <KK> Nope, though I'm sure it sees a bit like prison to him.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:15:47 PM] <Shiral> That putty wouldn't thin out for me AT all
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:15:58 PM] <KK> What are you trying to do with thinned down wall putty?!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:09 PM] <DesertRose> I can't believe they don't have phones at that rehab center. That sucks.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:09 PM] <Shiral> I'm looking at other possible substances to stiffen that corrugated cardboard
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:22 PM] <jemler> spray and starch?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:24 PM] <Evie> Mod Podge? the matte version
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:25 PM] <Jerusha> Coroth Castle, Shiral?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:33 PM] <Shiral> I'm trying to stiffen corrugated cardboard to make a miniature tiled roof for my miniature pagoda
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:33 PM] <KK> Thinned down fabric glue, maybe?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:49 PM] <Shiral> I'll try modpodge, nest
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:16:51 PM] <Shiral> next
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:02 PM] <Evie> I love Mod Podge. It dries completely clear, and you can layer it to the thickness you need
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:09 PM] <Shiral> Nope, I don't have a good enough idea of the Coroth Castle floor plan
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:22 PM] <The_Bee> A modpodge nest isn't even for the birds.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:28 PM] <Shiral> Would they have it at Michael's do you think?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:41 PM] * Jerusha nudges Morgan to send Shiral the plans to Coroth Castle
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:43 PM] <jemler> there 5 towers, named after orin's protocols. green, yellow. etcc
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:55 PM] <Evie> I'm leaving the Green Tower to you, Shiral. After reading the book description, I realized I don't have room to try building that in 1:6 scale
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:55 PM] <KK> Michael's would have fabric glue, probably mod-podge.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:17:57 PM] <DesertRose> I've seen Mod Podge in WalMart, so I don't see why Michael's wouldn't have it.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:01 PM] <The_Bee> What's the 5th?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:06 PM] <Shiral> Yes, but my next project will have to be a medieval cloister
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:27 PM] <jemler> i think one was purple. i'd have to find it.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:30 PM] <Jerusha> Wonderful, Shiral!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:46 PM] <Shiral> Yellow, green, orange, black and....I forget the last one
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:18:47 PM] <Evie> A cloister would be cool
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:19:23 PM] <The_Bee> so not the four archangelic colors?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:19:32 PM] <Shiral> Now I just have to figure out how to build one. Better go revisit my France trip photos
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:20:19 PM] <jemler> Protocols of Orin: Black, Vermillion, Green, Gold and Blue.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:20:38 PM] <Shiral> But before that, I have to finish my pagoda. It's taken longer because I've spent too much time watching the Olympics
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:20:54 PM] <The_Bee> the four ritual colors + black
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:20:55 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:19 PM] <DesertRose> I've spent a good bit of time watching the Olympics too.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:23 PM] <jemler> but i don't know what order they were in.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:34 PM] <Jerusha> I've watched on and off
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:37 PM] <KK> Ah, Olympics. Did you see the spectacular bobsled crash last night? Fortunately, no injuries.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:48 PM] <Shiral> Pagoda roofs are very compilicated structures, intended to be viewed from below as well as above, so there are a lot of little components to them
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:21:57 PM] <Shiral> Which team crashed???
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:02 PM] <KK> Love the figure skating and ice dancing. I always think of Susan when I watch them.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:08 PM] <KK> Canada.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:15 PM] <jemler> susan who?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:18 PM] <Shiral> Very good figure skating and ice dancing this year
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:20 PM] <KK> Werner.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:24 PM] Join DomMelchior has joined this channel (Mibbit@4FC299.D1FB37.CD55A6.A34C69).
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:27 PM] <KK> Mistress of COmplications.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:27 PM] <Shiral> And yes, Susan would have loved it
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:28 PM] <jemler> hi dm
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:31 PM] <The_Bee> I watched a few moments, then gave up. they were skating to music, and the commentators wouldn't shut up andlet me enjoy the music.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:32 PM] <DesertRose> Hi DomMelchior
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:34 PM] <Jerusha> Canada took gold in hockey, though
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:36 PM] <DomMelchior> Good evening, all
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:38 PM] <The_Bee> Hi Dom
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:39 PM] <Shiral> I though Davis and WHite were particularly excellent.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:41 PM] <Evie> hi DM
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:41 PM] <Shiral> Hello, Dom
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:22:55 PM] <Jerusha> Hi DomMelchior
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:02 PM] <KK> Davis & White were spectacular!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:07 PM] <Shiral> Although Virtue and Moir were excellent, too
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:21 PM] <KK> Yes, but not the same passion.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:23 PM] <Shiral> And so was the Russian pair who took Bronze
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:30 PM] <KK> They were also good.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:55 PM] <Shiral> Glad nobody got hurt on the bobsled course
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:23:57 PM] <KK> Wasn't fond of the Russian woman who took gold. I thought the Korean lady should have had it.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:05 PM] <Shiral> Me TOO
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:22 PM] <Shiral> Think Yuna Kim is much more graceful and beautiful a skater
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:32 PM] <The_Bee> The couple who took the gold in ice dancing are a pair of Mass. locals.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:33 PM] <KK> She was exquisite.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:38 PM] <Shiral> Sotnikova has room to grow, though.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:24:47 PM] <Shiral> And time is on her side
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:25:20 PM] <KK> Yep. So now we wait 4 more years for next time.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:25:31 PM] <DomMelchior> Figure skate judging seems so subjective to me. I guess I just appreciate it all as an art form.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:25:44 PM] <Jerusha> Two more for the summer olmpics
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:25:50 PM] <Jerusha> olympics
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:26:04 PM] <KK> Yep. Then, it's the gymnastics that intrigue me.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:26:06 PM] <Shiral> At this point, I'm ready for the Olympics to be over. Love them, and then have the luxury to get a little tired of them
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:26:31 PM] <jemler> i haven't watched any of them.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:26:38 PM] <Jerusha> I look forward to fencing, except it's always on in the early morning hours
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:26:58 PM] <The_Bee> People here are talking about bringing the 2024 Olympics to Boston.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:01 PM] <KK> I like how snow-boarding has come into its own art form. And they're doing a lot of snow-board-type tricks on skis, which I don't remember them doing in the past.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:05 PM] <DomMelchior> How 'bout a Spring and Autumn games? Then we could have one every year ;-)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:08 PM] <Shiral> I love the equestrian stuff, and If I'm lucky, I get to see about 15 minutes of it between the boxing matches
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:28 PM] <Jerusha> I hear you, Shiral
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:54 PM] <Shiral> Every time I see a skier go down that free style skiing hill backwards, I am just thankful not to be their parent
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:54 PM] <KK> Having them every year would bankrupt the hosting nations. I think every two years is probably enough.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:27:59 PM] <DesertRose> I'm still kicking myself in the tuchus for not having gone to see some equestrian events in Atlanta in 1996. I was right there working; I could have taken one of my days off to go see SOMETHING.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:28:30 PM] <Jerusha> Missed opportunity, DR
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:28:33 PM] <DesertRose> Truly.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:28:35 PM] <Shiral> And we'd soon start saying "Olympics AGAIN???"
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:01 PM] <DesertRose> I doubt I'll ever be that close to the Olympics again, and I just didn't want to spend the money; I was trying to save up for something at the time.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:02 PM] <Shiral> Better to have it as an event to be looked forward to
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:04 PM] <KK> I was watching giant slalom yesterday, where about 4 skiers in a row wiped out in the final runs.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:11 PM] <Shiral> I saw that too.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:13 PM] <jemler> but don't forget, dr. that idiot who set off bombs during the'96 olympics./
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:17 PM] <Shiral> Snow looked very soft
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:30 PM] <KK> They were having serious melting problems this year.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:40 PM] <jemler> the snow is soft. the ground aint!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:44 PM] <Shiral> This time, Kiev was the city having the problems
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:48 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, I remember that clearly. A couple of my erstwhile coworkers almost went to that venue the night the bomb went off; they changed their minds at the last minute.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:29:54 PM] <KK> Apparently the half-pipe was frozen slush at the bottom, for one of the days.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:30:30 PM] <Shiral> If they were going to have the Olympics in Russia, one would think a city farther north would have been more suitable
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:30:44 PM] <KK> You'd think so.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:30:52 PM] <The_Bee> It's hard to ski in 60-degree weather.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:30:56 PM] <Jerusha> No one wants the Olympics in Siberia
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:30:58 PM] <Shiral> The Russian climate being so famously cold
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:19 PM] <Shiral> No mountains in Siberia, but even 100 miles north would have made more sense
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:34 PM] <Annie> catch you next time. Falling asleep here.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:37 PM] <DesertRose> Well, I think that was unseasonably warm weather this year.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:40 PM] <Annie> night folks.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:41 PM] <jemler> nite annie
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:41 PM] <Shiral> Night, Annie
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:43 PM] <DesertRose> Okay, night, Annie.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:45 PM] <Jerusha> Sleep tight, Annie!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:51 PM] <The_Bee> nighters, annie
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:52 PM] <Evie> night, Annie
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:31:54 PM] Quit Annie has left this server (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:06 PM] <DomMelchior> G'Night Annie
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:10 PM] <Shiral> So if Torenth ever hosted the Olympics, they'd have plenty of mountains for their skiing venues
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:16 PM] <DesertRose> LOL, yes.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:28 PM] <Jerusha> Isn't Torenth too warm?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:38 PM] <Shiral> Not in winter, I'll bet
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:47 PM] <Evie> I might want to go to the Torenthi Olympics. And the Gwyneddan Olympics too
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:32:47 PM] <jemler> plus they could work weather magic to keep things going!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:33:26 PM] <Shiral> "The Torenthi Hockey team used an unfair advantage during the gold medal match. That Caradot did NOT belong in the rink!"
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:33:26 PM] <Evie> Gwynedd could host a Winter Olympics in Cassan or Claiborne, maybe
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:33:38 PM] <jemler> do they people in claiborne and cassan have highland games?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:00 PM] <Jerusha> Too bad the Caradot ate the ref
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:07 PM] * Evie imagines Dhugal tossing a caber
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:18 PM] <Shiral> Dhugal? Not Duncan?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:21 PM] <Shiral> =o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:24 PM] <jemler> deryni would win at archery.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:29 PM] <Jerusha> And Duncan declaring the games open
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:43 PM] <Shiral> "They weren't even Looking a the target
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:34:45 PM] <Evie> Duncan too, perhaps, if in civvies and not in his cassock
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:01 PM] <DomMelchior> Ah, the poor thing, Jerusha! Ref probably gave him indigestion!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:12 PM] * jemler shudders, thinking of Dunan in a kilt!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:26 PM] <Shiral> The R'Kassan Bobsled Team
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:33 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:40 PM] <Shiral> Would be as good a joke as the Jamaican Bobsled team
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:35:48 PM] <Evie> Duncan would look quite nice in a kilt, I'm sure, jemler.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:12 PM] <Shiral> Especially in that nice McLain Tartan
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:30 PM] <DomMelchior> Oh, but the uniforms on that team from Howicce & Llanedd!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:35 PM] <jemler> after being in a cassock all those years? it would look like someone whiterwashed his legs!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:47 PM] <Shiral> ACK, yes, Dom
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:48 PM] <Evie> Actually, I have a little 1:6 kilt in mini-tartan in the McLain plaid colors, although it's not the proper sett
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:36:56 PM] <Evie> but it's as close as I could find anywhere
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:37:16 PM] <Shiral> You'd have to find a tiny McLain to weave a kilt in the proper Sett
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:37:22 PM] <Jerusha> Will Duncan or Dhugal be modelling it soon?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:37:44 PM] <Evie> I don't imagine Cassani men tend to sunbathe a lot, even when they don't wear cassocks daily, jemler.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:37:50 PM] <jemler> mini duncan in a mini kilt.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:38:01 PM] <Shiral> When does the sun ever shine in Cassan?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:38:05 PM] <DomMelchior> And would the Connait submit one team or several? Same question for the Forcinn buffer states.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:38:16 PM] <Evie> I've got photos of it in the early pages of the Action Figure Project blog
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:38:19 PM] <DesertRose> Anyway, what's wrong with showing pale legs? Not everybody tans well or even wants to tan. Some of us would like never to get skin cancer.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:38:37 PM] <Shiral> They'd be one of those teams where there's a flag bearer and one athlete at the opening ceremonies
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:39:04 PM] <Shiral> That's where those thick knee socks come in handy
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:39:15 PM] <jemler> would they light the torch with the sun, flint and steel, or magic?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:39:32 PM] <Jerusha> Flaming arrow
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:39:38 PM] <The_Bee> The best broad-jumpers would be from the Anvil of the Lord.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:13 PM] <DomMelchior> And the rowing teams to bet on would be from the Hort of Orsal's lands
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:13 PM] <jemler> here's a question. how the devil do they get that torch from greece to say, australia?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:21 PM] <Jerusha> Falconry could be an Olympic sport
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:44 PM] <Jerusha> Transfer Portal, Jemler
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:50 PM] <The_Bee> probably by plane, possibly by ship, Jemler
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:52 PM] <KK> I think it travels in lanterns, Jemler.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:40:57 PM] <Shiral> The R'Kassans would win the equestrian competitions
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:41:15 PM] <jemler> no, i mean really. not in gwynedd.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:41:30 PM] <Evie> Found the mini-kilt, but mini-Denis is wearing it for some reason: http://www.flickr.com/photos/9573389@N08/6929614598/
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:41:32 PM] <The_Bee> the torch even went into space this year.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:41:39 PM] <Shiral> Since they managed it in 2000, they must have figured it out
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:41:51 PM] <jemler> it's not like they are going to let an open flame onto an airplane.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:42:17 PM] <Shiral> Wonder if it's ever gone out and the person in charge at the time looked around surreptitiously and then relit it with a cigarette lighter
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:42:27 PM] <Evie> lol
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:42:44 PM] <Shiral> "That didn't happen..I know nothing..."
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:43:12 PM] <jemler> if they didn't have a lighter, they could find a republican and rub his ears togther.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:43:17 PM] <jemler>
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:43:52 PM] <Shiral> Liked the way they lit the torch at the opening ceremonies, this year, while playing the Firebird
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:44:36 PM] <DomMelchior> Openning and Closing Ceremonies are my favorite Olympic event
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:45:04 PM] <Jerusha> Lots of fireworks this year at the end
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:45:07 PM] <Shiral> BRB, Arguing cats
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:45:42 PM] <Jerusha> Ah, more fireworks
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:04 PM] <Evie> How is it I don't have a single photo of me Duncan darlin' wearing his own kilt? I must fix that!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:06 PM] <KK> mini-Denis in kilt. Yes!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:25 PM] <KK> Has Dhugal worn it?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:27 PM] <Jerusha> Would the Arilan's have a kilt?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:28 PM] <DomMelchior> Is "Cat Arguing" also an olympic sport?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:39 PM] <KK> I'm sure cat-herding is.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:54 PM] <Jerusha> Now that I would watch
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:46:57 PM] <DomMelchior> But noone's ever won it, KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:03 PM] <Evie> LOL! As it happens, i just switched Denis to a new body yesterday. The original one was nice looking but very stiff to pose. The new one looks good, if not AS good, but is better articulated and a dream to pose
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:11 PM] <Evie> and yes, I have Dhugal wearing the kilt also
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:23 PM] <KK> Did you guys see that commercial a few years ago, with the cowboys cat-herding? Priceless.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:24 PM] <Shiral> No, it's just sounding like MEOOWR PFFFT!:
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:33 PM] <Evie> as the McLain now, I figured Dhugal was entitled to wear it
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:41 PM] <DesertRose> Oh yes, KK. I love that commercial.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:47:57 PM] * jemler starts humming 'The Bonnie Scotsman'
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:09 PM] <Shiral> The cats being herded keep lying down and taking naps in the middle of the competition
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:22 PM] <Evie> Is Arilan a Welsh name? I'm guessing due to the Tre- prefix of Tre-Arilan
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:38 PM] <The_Bee> or cornish
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:41 PM] <Shiral> I saw it on Youtube. That's not a job I'd ever want.,=o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:43 PM] <KK> Can't remember where I got that one.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:48:56 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, there isn't a whole lot of linguistic difference between Welsh and Cornish really.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:49:19 PM] <Shiral> So would Meara be the equivalent of Wales?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:49:43 PM] <Evie> http://www.flickr.com/photos/9573389@N08/7737147476/ Dhugal Luke-Tamer
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:04 PM] <KK> Roughly, I'd guess.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:09 PM] <The_Bee> Welsh, Cornish and Breton are all descended from the ancient Britons.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:12 PM] <jemler> northwestern wales was called gwynedd. around mt. snowden.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:27 PM] <Shiral> Sort of a combination of Wales and Scotland?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:33 PM] <Shiral> Culturally, that is
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:34 PM] <The_Bee> I always thought of Meara as Ireland.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:50:54 PM] <KK> Irish, too.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:51:26 PM] <Shiral> I can see a summer Eistedfodd celebration in Ratharkin
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:51:28 PM] <The_Bee> especiall with their efforts to drive out the occupying power.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:51:55 PM] <Shiral> I've once heard the Welsh referred to as "The Irish who couldn't swim."
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:51:58 PM] <Evie> That could equally apply to Ireland, Wales, lower Scotland....
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:52:08 PM] <Evie> LOL, shiral!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:52:28 PM] <DesertRose> I wouldn't want to swim from Wales to Ireland anyway. That's freaking cold, stormy waters.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:53:03 PM] <Shiral> Not my idea of a fun place for a dip, either
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:54:20 PM] <DesertRose> Nope. I like my swimming water nice and warm.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:54:21 PM] <KK> Fierce, ferocious currents, too.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:54:33 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, and as I understand, lots of rocks.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:54:49 PM] <Evie> I have Mini-Denis in a very compromising position right now, checking out his new posing abilities. He's got a pretty young lady in his lap, and looking a lot more natural at it than he would have in his original body. Too bad he's a bishop and can't keep her.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:55:01 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:55:19 PM] <Jerusha> Oh dear!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:55:49 PM] <KK> Maybe Alaric or Kelson should have that body?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:56:09 PM] <Shiral> But they're both married now, KK. =o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:56:12 PM] <Evie> It's too dark for either. I bought it for one of them, but when it arrived, the only head it would match was Denis's head
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:56:20 PM] <Jerusha> With the young lady?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:56:44 PM] <Evie> It would make either Alaric or Kelson look like they've got a dark suntan from the chin down, and an inexplicably pale face
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:56:50 PM] <Shiral> Hope Mini Cardiel doesn't come by and catch mini Denis in that very secular situation
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:57:00 PM] <KK> What, you think married people don't have romantic inclinations?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:57:00 PM] <Jerusha> You could let Sextus borrow it.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:57:12 PM] <DesertRose> Oops, yeah, mini Denis would be in deep trouble.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:57:31 PM] <Evie> LOL! I would, but Sextus also has a Ken head, which means it's too pale for this type of body
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:14 PM] <DomMelchior> Time for me to go feed the puppy. Just stopped by to say "hi" anyway. G'Night all!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:21 PM] <KK> You'll have to post pics of this new body.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:21 PM] Quit The_Bee has left this server (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:23 PM] <Evie> The Soldier Story action figure bodies photograph lighter than they look in real life, so I bought two thinking they'd work, but they are a very clear mismatch compared to any of the Ken heads I have
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:26 PM] Quit DomMelchior has left this server (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:28 PM] <Jerusha> Good night, DM!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:31 PM] <Evie> I will
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:58:45 PM] <DesertRose> Oh, that's what I get for looking away for a minute. We lost two.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:59:00 PM] <KK> I think mibbit booted them.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:59:02 PM] <Jerusha> Maybe Bee will be back
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:59:11 PM] <DesertRose> Well, DM meant to leave.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [07:59:23 PM] <DesertRose> I'm not sure about Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:00:07 PM] <Shiral> Re Romantic inclinations, yes, but wouldn't Kelson hate to hurt his new bride's feelings? =o) And hate a scandal, also?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:00:36 PM] <Jerusha> No, Kelson wouldn't
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:00:52 PM] <Jerusha> Wouldn't hurt her feelings, that is
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:00:56 PM] <KK> Bee will probably be back. I've got to run, too, though. I've spent the last week helping my mother move into our cottage, and she's temporarily living at our house until the cottage is ready for occupancy. That means making dinner.--and before Downton Abbey, which has Lady Rose's presentation at court.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:00:56 PM] <Shiral> He's not known for being reckless
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:11 PM] <DesertRose> Okay, see you next week, KK?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:13 PM] <Shiral> Wasn't she in a place, already?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:19 PM] <KK> Should do.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:22 PM] <Shiral> Ah yes. Downton tonight!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:25 PM] <Evie> Trying to upload a pic of Denis on the new body
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:35 PM] <Jerusha> Night, KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:42 PM] <Shiral> Hope fhings improve for your father this week, KK
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:43 PM] <DesertRose> Okay, have a good week! Night!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:52 PM] <DesertRose> I hope your dad feels better soon.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:54 PM] <KK> She didn't like it over there. Too restrictive. So when our cottage came vacant last month, she decided she wanted to move there.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:01:55 PM] Join mib_iqkl1n has joined this channel (Mibbit@OWIRCN-f8690a95.ma.comcast.net).
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:12 PM] <Shiral> Worked out well, then! =o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:18 PM] Nick mib_iqkl1n is now known as The_Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:19 PM] <Jerusha> She likes her independence, then
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:24 PM] <DesertRose> WB Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:26 PM] <KK> This has been a much easier move, with much better local movers.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:38 PM] <KK> She does.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:46 PM] <Shiral> My mom also has her issues about independence, but mostly she's settled in well
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:02:54 PM] <The_Bee> Who does?
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:01 PM] <DesertRose> KK's mom, Bee.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:11 PM] <The_Bee> ah, good for her.

[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:45 PM] <DesertRose> Got a 404 error on that link, Evie.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:47 PM] <Evie> That's the new body, but fully clothed. I can show off his cool joints later
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:48 PM] <KK> Oops, bad link, Evie.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:50 PM] <Evie> Darn!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:03:57 PM] <Evie> hang on, let me change privacy setting
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:05:09 PM] <Jerusha> Denis and cool joints. Hmmm
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:05:23 PM] <Evie> http://www.flickr.com/photos/9573389@N08/12733910485/
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:05:37 PM] <Evie> LOL! Not THAT sort of joint!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:05:42 PM] <DesertRose> There we are.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:05:59 PM] <Shiral> My goodness, Denis should REALLY hope Cardiel doesn't pop by unexpectedly.
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:06:04 PM] <Shiral> =o)
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:06:17 PM] <jemler> Denis Arilan, a true High Deryni!
[Sunday, February 23, 2014] [08:06:18 PM] <The_Bee> Cool joints sounds more like Derry's thing.
