[16:52] <hygilac> I have seen a manx, Kelos
[16:52] <AnnDupuis> Katherine: it took me a while to find that back door, too!
[16:52] <wrengl> i've met a manx or two
[16:53] <KK> Yep, never looked like this before.
[16:53] <wrengl> how did the writing go today Katherine?
[16:53] <KK> Are we talking about Manx cats?
[16:53] <scribbler> I automatically go to recom if I can't get into psionics -- I've learned my lesson....
[16:53] <hygilac> I went to the Purina Invitational Cat show once
[16:53] <hygilac> You have never imagined so many cats of all kinds
[16:53] <KK> Do not ask about the writing.
[16:53] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Yes, Katherine.
[16:53] <scribbler> bad week, KK?
[16:53] <Rebecca> okay.
[16:53] <wrengl> Bynw helped me set up mIRC so it switches when necessary.
[16:53] <Bynw> LOL
[16:53] <Richenda> i took my Corgi to dog show lessons
[16:54] *** Sedina has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[16:54] <KK> Just didn't get any writing done.
[16:54] <Richenda> hi sedina
[16:54] <Serenity> WB, Sedina
[16:54] <scribbler> WB Sedina
[16:54] <Rambart20> howdy sedina
[16:54] <AnnDupuis> We were talking about red cats a moment ago, then Manxes.
[16:54] <hygilac> wb sedina
[16:54] <wrengl> wb sedina
[16:54] * Sedina rubs her bum from having been booted
[16:54] <AnnDupuis> Before that, it was white (grey/dusty/vaccuumed) horses. :-)
[16:54] <scribbler> sorry to hear that, KK....
[16:54] <Sedina> Thanks all.  Hi Bart
[16:54] <KK> We had our red cat in with us, watching West Wing, earlier.
[16:54] <hygilac> friend of mine had a red abyssian
[16:54] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Join the club, KK, although I've my new monitor now. :) 17" monitor w/16.1"  VIS...
[16:54] <Richenda> how was ER
[16:54] <Sedina> Hi Katherine!
[16:55] <KK> No ER yet.  It hasn't started back up.
[16:55] <KK> West Wing is now the eagerly awaited series.
[16:55] * scribbler sends Kelos felicitations on the new monitor....
[16:55] <Bynw>  Well that takes care of the biggest question on everyone's mind today KK :-)
[16:55] <Richenda> I thought it started on Thursday
[16:55] <Serenity> ER premiered here on Thurs.
[16:55] <Rambart20> it did
[16:55] <Rebecca> How long after a show starts in the U.S. does it take to cross the Pond?
[16:55] <KK> Kelos, I'm in the process of ordering a new system with a 17" monitor.  It will be a big improvement.
[16:55] <Richenda> did here too
[16:55] <scribbler> New season of WW premiers Wednesday -- hope it doesn't conflict with Enterprise....
[16:56] <hygilac> which of your cats watch TV, Katherine?
[16:56] <Kendall> it does here
[16:56] <Serenity> Enterprise will be at 8:00, so no conflict with WW
[16:56] <Rebecca> Scribbler, Enterprise is on at 8
[16:56] <Richenda> KK, do you want to know what happens in ER
[16:56] <scribbler> KK -- what manufacturer for the 'puter?
[16:56] <KK> Does the new Star Trek start this week?
[16:56] <Jessie> last week
[16:56] <Rambart20> it started this past week
[16:56] <scribbler> Enterprise started last week with a 2hr. episode....
[16:56] <Jessie> here in the states that is
[16:56] <Kelos_al-Hazar> KK: Get a Dell...
[16:56] <virtualbabe> It started last wed for us in the Vancouver area
[16:56] <Kendall> WW premier isn't for another week
[16:56] <Serenity> Enterprise is REALLY GOOD!
[16:56] <KK> Dell, Scribbler.  But their website info didn't match with the catalogue I have, so I need to call them tomorrow.
[16:56] <Richenda> Kelos, i got a new dell
[16:57] * hygilac loves her Dell
[16:57] <Richenda> Dells are the best
[16:57] <scribbler> My dad-in-law just got a new Dell system....
[16:57] <Kendall> WW is doing a special show after what happened on the 11th
[16:57] <KK> That's what I'm planning to get--with rewritable CD drive that also plays DVD's.
[16:57] <Richenda> thats what i got
[16:57] <Kendall> the premier isn't until the next week
[16:57] <KK> I suspected that the WW folk might be whipping out a new episode.
[16:57] <Rambart20> dvd's are awesome KK
[16:57] <scribbler> he hasn't set it up yet according to my husband....
[16:58] *** Kendall is now known as shhhh
[16:58] * scribbler needs to get an external CD-RW...
[16:58] <Serenity> I don't like the new ADA on Law and Order.  They should bring Abby back.
[16:58] <KK> Scott inherited a machine from Anne McCaffrey's sister-in-law, and it's still in warranty, but it has sleeping sickness; has been back to the UK for servicing already, and that didn't fix it.
[16:59] <KK> Scott loves Law and Order, too.
[16:59] <hygilac> uh=oh
[16:59] <Richenda> we ya'll my horse is runin 'round the field bucking and screaming at me so i gotta go before she hates me forever
[16:59] <shhhh> I like the new ADA
[16:59] <hygilac> what kind is it KK?
[16:59] <Serenity> And while their at it, they should bring Mike Logan back too.
[16:59] <shhhh> much better than the last one
[16:59] <KK> Gateway.
[16:59] *** majorsprop Quit (QUIT: User exited)
[16:59] <hygilac> ah
[16:59] * virtualbabe would like to find a program that would allow her DVD_ROM drive to read PAL discs
[16:59] <Rambart20> uh oh
[16:59] <shhhh> Logan is the best cop they have had on the show
[16:59] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Gah! Run away, run away!
[17:00] <Rambart20> hey they are not that bad
[17:00] <KK> Gateway?  We agree!
[17:00] *** shhhh is now known as Kendall
[17:00] <Kelos_al-Hazar> At least it's NOT a Packard Bell/NEC, tho...
[17:00] <hygilac> Noting personal, Bart
[17:00] <Rambart20> I know
[17:00] <Kelos_al-Hazar> That WOULD be a nightmare.
[17:00] <Rambart20> :-)
[17:00] <KK> My father has one, and loves it, but like I said, Scott's has sleeping sickness, from which it refuses to be roused, even by the kiss of a prince.
[17:00] <hygilac> David and family got something they had to send back
[17:00] <Bynw> DELL are the best
[17:01] <KK> I keep hearing that.
[17:01] <Bynw> cow computers (Gateway) are OK
[17:01] * scribbler is still VERRA partial to her iBook....
[17:01] <hygilac> I don't recall what kind--somenthing made in the UK
[17:01] <hygilac> they got a Dell  to replace it
[17:01] *** Tika  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:01] <Kelos_al-Hazar> I've done very careful research and Dell uses better quality mainboards than Gateway does.
[17:01] <Sedina> Hi Tika
[17:01] * scribbler sends greetings to Tika
[17:01] <hygilac> Hi Tika!
[17:01] * Tika waves hello to everyone :)
[17:01] <Rambart20> howdy tika
[17:01] <hygilac> has your toothache gone away, tika?
[17:01] <Jessie> hello Tika
[17:02] <KK> Well, even my son approves of the specs on the Dell I've chosen, so it must be ok.  He's very picky about computers.
[17:02] <Rebecca> hi tika
[17:02] <Serenity> Hi Tika
[17:02] <Tika> it's MUCHO better, hygilac!
[17:02] <Richenda> hi
[17:02] <hygilac> good; nothing hurts much worse
[17:02] <Rebecca> Katherine, what's your short story about in the Templar anthology?  And what's it's title?
[17:02] <KK> Sand under a contact lens hurts almost as much.
[17:02] <scribbler> My dad-in-law wanted to get his new computer before Windows XP came out, so he could get Windows 2000 instead.....
[17:03] <Tika> and i have one more goofy pill to last me until tomorrow at 2 which is when I will see the *shudder* dentist
[17:03] <KK> XP is supposed to be more stable--but ME is apparently shaky.
[17:03] <hygilac> that is prabably so, katherine
[17:03] <virtualbabe> ME's worse then 98 was
[17:03] <scribbler> XP has a few too many whistles and bells for his taste -- he's a man of simple needs....
[17:03] <Jessie> my son has ME and has never had a problem with it
[17:03] <KK> That's saying a lot, because 98 has given me nothing but problems.
[17:03] <Richenda> I have ME
[17:03] <Jessie> we have machines with 95, 98 & ME -- all work fine
[17:04] <Richenda> we just got it
[17:04] <Serenity> I have ME, and I haven't had any problems.
[17:04] <Kendall> same here Jessie
[17:04] <virtualbabe>  you
[17:04] <Bynw> ME is junk
[17:04] <hygilac> I have had no trouble at all with ME on my Dell, Katherine
[17:04] <Rambart20> 98 works fine for me
[17:04] <Richenda> no its not bynw
[17:04] <Kelos_al-Hazar> of 95 and 98, I prefer 98se...
[17:04] <Rebecca> I have very little trouble with ME
[17:04] <Bynw> 98 or 95 is good .....
[17:04] * Tika giggles at Bynw who curses 98 frequently ;)
[17:04] <virtualbabe> you're lucky I've got ME now and it gives me even more of the dreaded blue screen of Death
[17:04] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Support for Win95 is basically gone, tho. :(
[17:04] <KK> I have ME on the new laptop, but haven't used it enough yet to know whether it's going to give me problems.
[17:04] <scribbler> dad-in-law never upgraded from 95; I think he would've run Linux if it wasn't for all the applications he uses....
[17:04] <Sedina> LOL Tika
[17:05] <Bynw> actually WinME depends on if it's an upgrade or an original install
[17:05] *** Shiral has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:05] <Kendall> mine was an upgrade
[17:05] <Sedina> wb Shiral
[17:05] <scribbler> wb Shiral
[17:05] <Shiral> Hello
[17:05] <Kelos_al-Hazar> StarOffice is equal to MS Office...
[17:05] *** Jessie sets mode: +o Shiral
[17:05] <Kendall> wb
[17:05] <Serenity> Mine was an upgrade.
[17:05] <Rambart20> howdy melissa
[17:05] <Rebecca> yeah.  Mine was orig install
[17:05] <Serenity> Hi Shiral
[17:05] <Bynw> if it's an upgrade ... it's junk... if it's the original install it seems to work OK in my experiance
[17:05] * virtualbabe would get a good mac if she could find a windoze emulator to run all her windows programs
[17:05] <Richenda> well ya'll my horse is gettin' mad and i got to get that hay done, i think i'm gonna just skip dinner
[17:05] <Tika> hey Shiral!
[17:05] <Kelos_al-Hazar> You can fool an upgrade copy into a full install...
[17:05] <Kendall> I haven't had any problems Bynw
[17:05] <KK> Richenda, what kind of horse do you have?
[17:05] <Shiral> Hi Tika!
[17:06] <scribbler> he's partial to the Lotus suite, Kelos....also, not sure how well his files would port over; he's not quite as techy as he used to be....
[17:06] <Kelos_al-Hazar> e-mail me to find out how.
[17:06] <hygilac> yeah, that is what my brother-in-law says, Bynw; no problems when it is installed
[17:06] <Richenda> i got 5
[17:06] *** Madeleine has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:06] <Shiral> Hi Madeleine
[17:06] <Richenda> hi
[17:06] * scribbler sends greetings to Madeleine
[17:06] <Serenity> Hi Madeleine
[17:06] <Sedina> Hi Madeleine
[17:06] <Madeleine> Hello
[17:06] <Kendall> Howdy Madeliene
[17:06] <Rambart20> howdy madeliene
[17:06] <Shiral> What Have I missed?
[17:06] <Richenda> i forget, sorry KK
[17:06] <hygilac> hi Melissa and Madeleine
[17:06] <scribbler> not much -- it was a bad writing week....
[17:06] <Bynw> virtualbabe, there is one ... i dont know the name of it off hand
[17:06] <hygilac> Vacuumed horses
[17:07] <Serenity> Not much, shiral.  Just talking about computers, and tv shows, and pets
[17:07] <Kendall> not just for Kk either
[17:07] <Richenda> lol
[17:07] <Kelos_al-Hazar> OMG...:looks in shock at a picture he just received...:
[17:07] <Jessie> wb Shiral
[17:07] <Jessie> hello Madeleine
[17:07] <Shiral> Thanks, Jessie
[17:07] <Rebecca> Katherine, what's your story in the Templar Anthology about?
[17:07] <Kendall> Kelos, check your other queries
[17:07] <hygilac> well, don't keep us guessing Kelos
[17:08] <Shiral> I wouldn't even vacuum a cat, let alone a horse
[17:08] <KK> It's about the founders of the Temple, Hugues de Payens and the original nine, of which we know 8 names.  So I've decided that a St. Clair was the 9th.
[17:08] <Richenda> ok ya'll i gotta head out to the fields
[17:08] <hygilac> Ann says the horses love it
[17:08] <Richenda> no it really works
[17:08] <virtualbabe> most cats would not allow you to vacuum them
[17:08] <Richenda> they do
[17:08] <Jessie> by Richenda
[17:08] <Serenity> Bye Richenda
[17:08] <scribbler> of course --
[17:08] <KK> Horses do seem to love vacuums.
[17:08] <Rambart20> bye richenda
[17:08] <Richenda> dogs don't
[17:08] <Richenda> bye ya'll
[17:08] <KK> Nor do cats.
[17:08] <Richenda> sorry i had to go
[17:09] *** Golux has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:09] <KK> Bye, Richenda
[17:09] <Richenda> but i gotta go work
[17:09] <Shiral> They sure wouldn't -- the minute "big suck" comes out of the closet, there's not a cat to be seen at my place
[17:09] <Richenda> bye
[17:09] <Sedina> Hi Golux
[17:09] <Shiral> Hi Eileen
[17:09] <scribbler> Golux!!!!
[17:09] <Richenda> nice to say something to you KK
[17:09] <Kelos_al-Hazar> It's a picture someone took from the observation deck as the AA flight was about 100 feet from the building...
[17:09] <Richenda> bye ya'll
[17:09] <Rambart20> howdy Golux
[17:09] <hygilac> no, smart cats know that "vacuum cleaner" is just a secret term for "cat eater"
[17:09] <Richenda> ciao
[17:09] *** Kendall Quit (System error: 64)
[17:09] <scribbler> The Imaginary Husband sends greetings...
[17:09] <Serenity> My cat prefers brooms to vacuums.  He runs from the vacuum, but attacks the broom and hangs on when I'm trying to sweep.
[17:09] <Richenda> adieu
[17:09] <virtualbabe> As in maybe Adam's ancestor/past life person?
[17:09] <Sedina> LOL Linda
[17:09] <KK> Kelos, that's a clever cut and paste, I've heard.
[17:09] <Richenda> ciao, adieu
[17:09] <Richenda> bye
[17:09] *** Kimbriell has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:09] <Golux> Hello everyone
[17:09] <Kelos_al-Hazar> If it isn't, tho...it's chilling...
[17:09] *** Richenda Quit (QUIT: User exited)
[17:09] <Kimbriell> arghhh
[17:10] <Golux> Who isn't leaving
[17:10] <Shiral> Bad peer
[17:10] <Shiral> I just got here, too
[17:10] <Serenity> Hi Golux
[17:10] <Sedina> Poor Kendall...  Peer has got it in for you today, doesn't he?
[17:10] <scribbler> Actually, I heard that some tourist was taking a video of the WTC and got it....
[17:10] *** Kimbriell is now known as Kendall-hates-the-new-computer
[17:10] <Shiral> Hello, KK, forgot to greet you when I arrived
[17:10] <Tika> urbanlegends.com hasn't been able to prove it as a hoax, Kelos (FYI)
[17:10] <KK> Welcome back from your vacation.  I hear it was neat!
[17:11] <Shiral> It was great, and too short
[17:11] * Kelos_al-Hazar shivers
[17:11] <scribbler> maybe it's a screenshot from the video....
[17:11] *** Kendall-hates-the-new-computer is now known as Kendall
[17:11] <Shiral> But Leslie and I had a really good time together
[17:11] <KK> I heard that AOL debunked it.
[17:11] <Tika> LOL Kendall
[17:11] <scribbler> Where were you, Shiral?
[17:11] <Kendall> doesn't matter I am going to leave this great august body
[17:11] <Shiral> As if it wasn't enough to cause death and destruction on an unimaginable scale, I'm VERY cross with the terrorists for destroying your writing momentum, KK.
[17:11] <Kelos_al-Hazar> AOL debunks everything...LOL! Just like they denied ever locking out deleting XXX spam...
[17:11] <KK> Aw, Kendall, and I hadn't seen you for weeks....
[17:11] <Kendall> glad i stopped by today
[17:11] <Shiral> Not to mention my own
[17:12] <scribbler> awww....don't let Peer bin Laden scare you off....
[17:12] <KK> I'm cross, too.
[17:12] <Jessie> ?
[17:12] <Kendall> sorry, other things call
[17:12] <KK> But I really, really do intend to get back on track this week.
[17:12] <Serenity> Bye, Kendall
[17:12] <scribbler> Me too....
[17:12] <Shiral> I hope it will go better KK
[17:12] <virtualbabe> YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[17:12] <hygilac> Bye Kendall
[17:12] <Shiral> Bye, Kendall
[17:12] <Jessie> bye Kendall
[17:12] * Kendall steps onto his Transfer Portal, disappears with a twinkling of lights, and winks at Jessie as he fades from existence
[17:12] <Sedina> bye Kendall
[17:12] <KK> Bye, Kendall.
[17:12] <Rebecca> bye kendall
[17:12] <Rambart20> bye kendall

[17:13] <virtualbabe> bye-eee kendall
[17:13] * virtualbabe thinks rat's too late
[17:13] <wrengl> i missed him also vb
[17:13] <hygilac> speaking of interviews...M@ is still hoping for an offer from the NBA; he had another interview on Thursday
[17:13] <Shiral> I was up in Portland Oregon, Scribbler
[17:13] <KK> Wrengl, how is Thumper?
[17:13] <Rambart20> the nba?
[17:14] <Shiral> My ex-college roomie lives there
[17:14] <scribbler> Oh, a little off-topic, but the newsletter for the local chapter of the Society for Technical Communicators had a great article on a couple of tech writers who use their skills with the SCA; I'll try to post the URL on the NG this week....
[17:14] <Golux> Basketball?
[17:14] <Shiral> Among other things, we made a pilgrimage to Powell's City of Books
[17:14] <wrengl> Standing better, Katherine.  Still walking like a drunken sailor, however.
[17:14] <hygilac> yep, Bart, ans in basketball
[17:14] <wrengl> One rear leg is still weak.
[17:14] <Shiral> I had a major "art attack" at Powells
[17:14] <Rebecca> Powell's.... *sigh*
[17:14] <Shiral> It's a heavenly place, Rebecca <G>
[17:14] <KK> Well, at least he's walking.  Soon he'll be bouncing again!
[17:14] <Shiral> Leslie had to drag me out
[17:15] <Rebecca> I know :)
[17:15] <scribbler> Cool, Shiral -- Mark wants to make a trip to Portland next spring...we have a niece up there....
[17:15] <Tika> Oregon is a heavenly place, Shiral ;)
[17:15] * Tika loooooves the Cascades
[17:15] <Shiral> It is, even when it rains <G>
[17:15] *** great_hooded_one has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:15] <Shiral> Hello GHO
[17:15] <KK> Hiyas, Hood!
[17:15] * scribbler sends greetings to great_hooded_one
[17:15] <wrengl> very true, kk.  And the tail works just fine!
[17:15] <Serenity> Hi Great hooded one
[17:15] <Sedina> Hi, GHO
[17:15] <Rambart20> howdy GHO
[17:15] <Rebecca> So how much damage did you do Melissa?
[17:15] <Golux> Was this the Leslie we met?
[17:15] <KK> The tail is lethal!  Just like Oswald's great otter tail!
[17:15] <wrengl> He and Bambi's daughter, Brenna, had a great visit last sunday.
[17:15] <Shiral> We were going to the Coast on Wednesday, but it rained, and Leslie didn't want to drive in the rain
[17:15] <scribbler> okay, now we need Her Royal Highness, Princess E....
[17:15] <virtualbabe> If you do get to portland, vancouver's only a day away.  (hint hint)
[17:16] <AnnDupuis> My dog, Barney's been recovering, too! Two weeks ago he could hardly stand (blood cancer with all sorts of complications), yesterday he took on an agility course (well, the beginner's course, mostly at a walk/jog and being spotted on the dog walk and seesaw)....
[17:16] <AnnDupuis> Will Thumper be at Darkover?
[17:16] <Rebecca> that's good news Ann
[17:16] * Sedina sends healing thoughts to Barney
[17:16] <scribbler> VB -- we also might get to Seattle the same trip to see friends; of course, all plans depend on work/school situations....
[17:16] <wrengl> Yes he will be, Ann.
[17:16] <Golux> She is bugging Ray too much right now
[17:16] <great_hooded_one> i hate this stupid java client
[17:16] <Shiral> Now that I've made my first post Sept 11 flight and all went well, I feel considerably better
[17:16] *** majorsprop has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:16] <wrengl> Jasta is making his costume this year.
[17:17] <Shiral> But it was an emotional hurdle
[17:17] <great_hooded_one> but i couldn't get on through mirc
[17:17] <Tika> why u using java, GHO?
[17:17] <Sedina> wb, majorsprop
[17:17] <KK> Have we heard from Jasta today?
[17:17] <Jessie> wb majorsprop
[17:17] <Serenity> Hi majorsprop
[17:17] <Shiral> I haven't
[17:17] <scribbler> Not yet, KK....
[17:17] <hygilac> Iknow the feeling, Shjiral
[17:17] <AnnDupuis> I'll be very glad to see Thumper again, I love his clothes! Unfortunately Barney's over the size limit to be welcome at the hotel (even though he was a registered therapy dog when he was younger and I had time for such things)....
[17:17] <KK> Me either, Hood.
[17:17] <Shiral> I was hoping she'd be here. =o(
[17:17] <wrengl> He will be the Blue Baron, shot down by Captain Snoopy, RFC.  Kathi will do the artwork of the dog fight.
[17:17] * virtualbabe wondersWhy did I get in OK throught mIRC?
[17:17] <majorsprop> my 3 year old threw me out for nickjr when i wasn't looking
[17:17] <AnnDupuis> I'll be getting on a plane October 16 -- for Germany.
[17:17] <KK> This java thing has tiny type--which will be much better on a 17" monitor, when I get it.
[17:18] <Golux> I could not mIRC either
[17:18] <Shiral> New computer time, KK?
[17:18] <hygilac> well, it will be better
[17:18] <scribbler> when I couldn't log in on psionics, I hopped over to recom....
[17:18] <Kelos_al-Hazar> I'm on mIRC via recom..
[17:18] <Serenity> I'll be flying next weekend
[17:18] <hygilac> but still tiny
[17:18] <hygilac> and I have a huge monitor
[17:18] <AnnDupuis> Katherine -- are you busy the first weekend of December? I may be going to London to a game convention and would love to see you if you could be my guest there....
[17:18] <KK> Yep, a Delll--soon, I hope!
[17:18] <Serenity> KK, when does the time change in England?
[17:18] <Shiral> Wooo hoo!
[17:18] <Madeleine> I have a Dell. They are great, KK.
[17:19] <KK> I hope to be back from Darkover by then, Ann.
[17:19] <hygilac> isn't rehre a Dell plan close to hou KK?
[17:19] <Shiral> May it inspire you all over again. =o)
[17:19] <Kelos_al-Hazar> My monitor is capable of more resolution than my video chipset supports.
[17:19] <KK> Time changes in October sometime--toward the end, I think.
[17:19] <AnnDupuis> Well, I'll be seeing you at Darkover, too.... I was just wondering if you'd be interested in hanging out at a small, laid back game/sf convention with me in London.
[17:19] <scribbler> Question from KKB -- when did the Kilshane earldom/barony go extinct? (This actually may a Codex question....)
[17:19] <KK> Dell is about a mile away, but the machines come up from Waterford or Cork.
[17:20] <hygilac> ah
[17:20] <majorsprop> my 3 yearold threw me out of the castrrom for nickjr when i wasn't watching
[17:20] <AnnDupuis> (which reminds me -- I need to make my hotel reservations/send my money in for Darkover!)
[17:20] <Shiral> Jatham and Janniver may find their castle needs um, renovation if it's been extinct a long time. =o)
[17:20] <hygilac> they have 2 plants near Nashville
[17:20] <KK> Quite possibly--but that depends on how far behind I still am by then.
[17:20] <scribbler> Time change in US is 10/28....
[17:20] <KK> Check the Codex, Scribbler.  I can't remember off=hand.
[17:20] <wrengl> We did that and the person who made it was told they had no smoking rooms!
[17:20] <hygilac> It's before that in the UK, tho
[17:21] <scribbler> Okay -- who's got a Codex handy????
[17:21] <virtualbabe> not I
[17:21] <Bynw>  scribbler... 948 was the year it became extinct
[17:21] <virtualbabe>  <pout>
[17:21] <Shiral> The UK changed about a week before we did, this spring
[17:21] * scribbler wishes February and Codex II would hurry up and get here....
[17:21] <scribbler> thx Bynw....good old 948 again....
[17:21] <KK> Has anyone heard from Laura, or is she locked down for the duration?
[17:21] <scribbler> I was just curious....
[17:22] <wrengl> She was on yesterday, KK
[17:22] <Sedina> Laura's just been very busy
[17:22] <Shiral> The coins will probably not be ready by Darkover time
[17:22] <wrengl> no sign of her today, however
[17:22] <KK> Is she still in Germany?  I got the impression she was about to be deployed.
[17:22] <Rambart20> I talked to her yesterday
[17:22] <hygilac> she is still in Germany, trying to finish all her projects or hand them off to outers before she goes
[17:22] <hygilac> she does not know when she will be leaving
[17:23] <Rebecca> She wrote me that's she's to be deployed so the coins project is on hold indefinitely 
[17:23] <KK> OK.  I've been thinking about her really hard, knowing she might be thrust into whatever unpleasantness is brewing.
[17:23] <Kelos_al-Hazar> I heard that bin Laden's been banished from Saudi Arabia forever...he will not be allowed to reenter that country.
[17:23] * scribbler sends prayers for Laura and all our military folks....
[17:23] <wrengl> Taliban says they have him safe.
[17:24] <KK> Afghanistan is now claiming they knew where bin Laden is.
[17:24] <Shiral> I hope Laura will be okay, wherever she is sent
[17:24] <KK> they knew--but no one can find them.
[17:24] <scribbler> it's too bad she didn't get them finished -- I think she could use a Camber and a Michaeline medal....
[17:24] <hygilac> a healer meda for Laura
[17:24] <wrengl> Yes, scribbler, I agree she could use them.
[17:24] <Shiral> We can have them in our hearts, Scribbler
[17:24] *** duck has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:25] <KK> Well, we should all keep her in our thoughts and prayers, and keep a candle lit for her whenever possible.
[17:25] <hygilac> Hi duck

[17:25] <Golux> Quack
[17:25] <wrengl> morning duck
[17:25] * scribbler sends greetings to duck
[17:25] <Sedina> Good morning, Duck!
[17:25] <Serenity> Hi duck!
[17:25] <Rambart20> hey duck!
[17:25] <majorsprop> hi donald
[17:25] <duck> morning people
[17:25] <Tika> hey duck!
[17:25] <Rebecca> morning Donald
[17:25] <Shiral> But it is too bad. Another black mark for Bin Laden, even if I feel completely petty to even worry about it right now.
[17:25] <KK> Ward cubes cast in her direction also would not go amiss, I suspect.
[17:25] <hygilac> brb
[17:25] <Jessie> hello duck
[17:25] <Shiral> Hi Duck!
[17:25] <Shiral> It would have to be a moving ward I think, Katherine.
[17:25] <wrengl> Long time no see, Duck! <BG>  Did you get dinner last night?
[17:25] <KK> We can do that!
[17:25] <Shiral> Complete with Archangelic protectors!
[17:25] <KK> Hi, Duck
[17:26] <scribbler> Okay, who are our Pillars of the Realm?
[17:26] <majorsprop> can't we put a ward around bin laden to keep him in one place
[17:26] <hygilac> dog frenzy
[17:26] <duck> pat second last person in before they closed the kitchen down
[17:26] <Shiral> Don't know if he deserves a ward, how about a really strong Glue Spell?
[17:26] <scribbler> how about a working like in Lammas Night?
[17:26] <KK> Well, wards are more to keep things out than to keep them in--though it can work both days.
[17:26] <wrengl> Good.  Glad you made it.  Did you get shrimp?
[17:26] <Shiral> Now you're talking!
[17:26] <Rambart20> a mid rip would do good for him
[17:26] <majorsprop> not for his protection but for evert\yone else
[17:26] * scribbler closes her eyes and thinks strongly, "Give yourself up.....give yourself up.....give yourself up....."
[17:27] * Kelos_al-Hazar likes the idea of someone opening a black hole directly underneath bin Laden's feet...
[17:27] <virtualbabe> but Bart, who would WANT to have that mind
[17:27] <Shiral> That poison that Stefan Coram uses in High Deryni would not be amiss, I think
[17:27] <KK> A Lammas-type working might actually be very good.  Scribbler, you've got the right idea, I think!
[17:27] <Rambart20> I know wouldn't
[17:27] *** The_Golux has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:27] <AnnDupuis> A friend of mine has posted a prayer that God may change bin Laden's heart.... wouldn't that be neat?
[17:27] <virtualbabe> Hi golux
[17:27] <Jessie> well -- haven't the most recent intelligence reports indicted that bin laden didn't know about the attack
[17:27] <hygilac> yes, i hink the Lammas night working is a fine idea
[17:27] <scribbler> We want to avoid the negative karma of actually wishing him ill...
[17:28] <The_Golux> Hey, I made it in the other way!
[17:28] <Golux> Bye from here

[17:28] <Shiral> "You're surrounded, you're the giant pariah of planet Earth,"
[17:28] <KK> Jessie, where'd you hear that?
[17:28] <AnnDupuis> Actually, good point -- the Taliban have requested evidence, and I think the US should provide it -- assuming it's actually strong enough to convict bin Laden....
[17:29] <Kelos_al-Hazar> "Resistance will occur. Further acts of terrorism will increase your punishment."
[17:29] <The_Golux> So now I can let the Princess in

[17:29] <Jessie> tho the guys were trained there -- once they form their cells -- what they do isn't known or necessarily ordered by bin laden
[17:29] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Saw a pic today that gives an entirely new spin to the Air Force's slogan of "Aim High"!
[17:29] <Rebecca> I've just seen that they haven't been able to directly connect him to the terrorists yet
[17:29] <hygilac> yes, i hope the US will present the evidence
[17:30] <great_hooded_one> i still can't get in through mirc, and it's on try number 85 or so

[17:33] <Rambart20> it was on about 10:30 last night

[17:34] <Rebecca> that was the season finale
[17:34] <scribbler> Hot? In the Sunset????
[17:34] <Bynw> there is a UPN station in Atlanta.. but since we dont have a TV it's hard for us to do any taping
[17:34] * scribbler is shocked....
[17:34] <Tika> ya know, we might actually need to get a television so we can see Enterprise LOL

[17:34] <wrengl> lol Tika

[17:35] <Rebecca> which reminds me I've got to make sure my station has Andromeda on next week at it's usual time

[17:37] <Shiral> Well yes, but  you're acclimated to "broiling hot"
[17:37] <duck> but it does sound awfully warm for sf
[17:37] <scribbler> It's warm on the Peninsula, but fortunately the crock-pot doesn't put out much heat....
[17:37] <KK> My poor mother must be melting.  She hates the heat.
[17:37] <Shiral> I had to air out my apartment last night before I could sleep. It was tres warm and stuffy

[17:37] <duck> after it gets over 45 celsius it doesn't really make much difference whether it is 47 or 55

[17:38] <Kelos_al-Hazar> I've got to leave soon...if I wind up walking to church.
[17:38] <KK> Of course.  And she has a supermarket on the ground floor.
[17:38] <Shiral> They don't get REALLY flat until the weather goes over 100
[17:38] <Rambart20> lumpy cats
[17:38] <Rambart20> ?
[17:38] <Bynw> I saw your mom online today ... didnt have a chance to chat with her though
[17:38] <Tika> wow.. it's been relatively cold here... I wonder if we're in for a heat wave when that front makes it over this way
[17:38] <Shiral> They're SORT of happy to see me back, but they KNOW by the smell of me that I was flirting with Leslie's three cats
[17:38] <Tika> LOL
[17:38] <Sedina> You traitor you, Shiral.  *lol*
[17:38] <wrengl> It's been in the fifties here -- quite chilly.

[17:40] <Shiral> But I kept coming back and back and back....
[17:40] <KK> I don't think so--though she was toying with the idea of coming to Ireland for Christmas, and maybe stopping her journey on the east coast for a few days.  But that was before September 11.
[17:41] <Jessie> Katherine a question for you -- did you approve a writing group called "Gwynedd Rising" or something like that?
[17:41] <Bynw> My mom got her plane tickets for the wedding at Darkover today off priceline.com ... only like $180.00
[17:41] <wrengl> September 11 changed lots of things for lots of people.

[17:42] <Shiral> Both my flights were half empty -- it was actually kind of nice.  Yesterday, I had a row of three seats to myself
[17:42] <Shiral> WB Golux
[17:42] <KK> I'm going to SF for a few days just before the San Bernardino visit.
[17:42] <Golux> Okay, what has Ray been laughing at while I was gone?
[17:42] <scribbler> great!
[17:42] <KK> My sister has a concert the Saturday before, in Sacramento, so we're thinking to go over there and have an early Thanksgiving with her.
[17:43] <scribbler> Concert? Vocal or instrumental?
[17:43] * Bynw and Tika will be having Thanksgiving at Jasta's
[17:43] <KK> My sister is a concert flutist with the Camellia Symphony in Sacramento.
[17:43] * wrengl doesn't know where she is having Thanksgiving.
[17:43] <scribbler> Wow -- that's cool....
[17:43] <wrengl> neat, KK
[17:43] <KK> I so rarely get to hear her play, it will be a real treat.
[17:43] <wrengl> I like the flute
[17:44] * scribbler will have a quiet Thanksgiving with her in-laws instead of the 22 members of her family....
[17:44] <Sedina> That's great, KK.
[17:44] <majorsprop> I'm wishing for Thanksgiving at Disneyland again
[17:44] <KK> She's really good, and her music has been her salvation since she first started playing in 6th grade.
[17:44] <wrengl> that's good KK that you can hear her.
[17:44] <Shiral> I like listening to the flute -- Actually playing one is a whole different ballgame
[17:44] <great_hooded_one> coming to sf? we were talking about a possible get-together sometime soon, anyways
[17:44] <virtualbabe> I'll probably spend thanksgiving on-line
[17:44] <Rebecca> I used to play the flute.  It's not that hard Melissa :)
[17:45] <Bynw> virtualbabe, you are a virtualbabe ... :-)
[17:45] <Shiral> I've played the flute too, Rebecca
[17:45] <Bynw> why not have a virtual thanksgiving
[17:45] <scribbler> Maybe at least a lunch or dinner get-together? The Imaginary Husband wants to meet you....
[17:45] * Sedina has also played the flute
[17:45] <KK> I <might> be able to arrange a get-together, closer to time. Depends on the family schedule.
[17:45] <Golux> I played the violin & the viola
[17:45] <majorsprop> Then we are going to Chicago to the Drake from Denver for a Christmas party
[17:45] <Shiral> It's not the instrument, it was my dad always popping in to play duets when I wanted to be doing other things.  He smothered me with his enthusiasm.  I was a typical teenager
[17:45] <KK> I had a go at the violin, because we had one in the family, but it wasn't my thing.
[17:46] <KK> That was in 6th grade.
[17:46] * Bynw plays the radio, cd's, tapes and has some vinyl
[17:46] * virtualbabe tried the piano for a while
[17:46] <Rebecca> Melissa sounds like my college roommate and her father.
[17:46] <Golux> Raymond & Elsa play the violin
[17:46] <Tika> LOL
[17:46] <KK> Me, too, Bynw!  LOL
[17:46] <Shiral> I gave my flute to my nephew on an extended loan
[17:46] * scribbler played piano for 3 years, now concentrates on vocal...
[17:46] <wrengl> I sort of played the guitar but not in years.  Folk music
[17:46] <Shiral> I'm really good at playing the CD's. <G>
[17:46] <virtualbabe> I'm a singer too scribbler
[17:47] * Tika plays the keyboard - this one :)
[17:47] <Rambart20> hey all I need to vamoose, thanks for coming KK, y'all have great week
[17:47] <KK> My father is the other keen musician in the family.  He plays clarinet, is in 2 or 3 different groups in Ft. Lauderdale.
