KK Chat - Nov. 11, 2001, pt. 2

[18:00] <Kelos_al-Hazar> KK: What would the reaction of a horse or mule be to being sent through a Transfer Portal?
[18:00] <KK> Happy Birthday, Golux.
[18:00] <Sedina> Happy birthday, Golux
[18:00] <Shiral> Unhappy I'll bet Kelos
[18:00] <scribbler> It's sometime this month.....
[18:00] <scribbler> I think....
[18:00] <Shiral> Happy belated birthday, Golux
[18:00] <KK> Hmmmm, it must be possible, but I've never done it before.
[18:00] <Wrengl> hi golux
[18:00] <KK> I wouldn't think they'd like it much.
[18:00] <Shiral> Wouldn't it have to be a VERY large portal?
[18:01] <Kiri`> can you fit a horse on a portal??
[18:01] <hygilac> probably not
[18:01] <Bynw> i think you could control it enough being deryni that it wouldnt even know it happened... it might be a bit spooked to be suddenly aware again and not be in the same place but it depends a lot on training
[18:01] <Shiral> If the person transferring has to have their actual feet RIGHT on the portal?
[18:01] <KK> Sure.  Small horse on a large Portal.
[18:01] <hygilac> none we've see so far, anyhow
[18:01] <lbarms> and I cant see a horse or mule voluntarily letting some one do that
[18:01] <Rambart20> how about a cat
[18:01] <KK> Training would make a big difference.
[18:01] <Shiral> They'd have to trust the person doing it. And fortunately, most Deryni are skillful with animals
[18:01] <KK> Cats would be easy.
[18:01] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Then something I am working on might be VERY interesting indeed...
[18:01] <Kiri`> idly wonders if there are deryni animals out there.. portaling themselves about..
[18:02] <lbarms> lol kiri
[18:02] <Golux> Dogs would be very easy---food
[18:02] * Bynw hasnt even done that before in a game either and has been roleplaying deryni for 16 years
[18:02] <Tika> eeek Kiri`.... that would make their plans to take over the world MUCH easier!
[18:02] <Kiri`> don't eat marissa!
[18:02] <Shiral> Dogs are also very trusting of their humans
[18:02] <Wrengl> lol kiri
[18:02] * scribbler imagines a Deryni cat using a Portal to get to the refrigerator....
[18:02] <Shiral> OR rather, their Deryni, in this case <G>
[18:02] <Wrengl> lol Shiral
[18:03] <KK> Since a person being transported has to let the person doing the transporting take control....it follows that an animal could be "sedated" and taken through without difficulty.
[18:03] <hygilac> Cats use those undetectable portals
[18:03] <Golux> Unless you want to give them a "B" "A" "T" "H"
[18:03] <Wrengl> or sending their slave to the refrigerator to get the food and cream
[18:03] <Tika> hehehe sedated like Javan the first few times
[18:03] <Sedina> LOL Pat...that sounds like my kitties
[18:03] <scribbler> Javan or Alroy?
[18:03] <KK> Any of the above.
[18:03] <scribbler> Oh, that's right -- now I know what you mean, Teeks?
[18:04] <Tika> ya, unconcious
[18:04] <Shiral> Mine are thinking FOod, food food...." at me right now. SO I will be right back
[18:04] <KK> I think it would be sort of like the gargoyle taking the cat through walls.
[18:04] <lbarms> I loved that part of the story
[18:04] <cjws> portaling would remove fleas:-)
[18:04] <Tika> LOL cjws!!!
[18:04] <scribbler> LOL Carolyn....
[18:04] <KK> Now <there's> a thought!
[18:04] <Sedina> LOL Carolyn
[18:04] <Bynw> that's a great ida
[18:04] <Wrengl> that would be a welcome thing for them, Carolyn
[18:04] <Bynw> er idea
[18:04] <Kelos_al-Hazar> It's an interesting concept altogether, tho...
[18:04] <hygilac> I love that cat in Gargoyle
[18:05] <lbarms> just make sure they dont leave any chemical weapons on the portal carolyn
[18:05] <Sedina> although, my kitties would resent the idea that they might even possibly have fleas.  *l*
[18:05] * scribbler still has to read Gargoyle....
[18:05] <KK> She was a good cat.  Unfortunately, she moved out a week after Jessicat moved in.
[18:05] <Tika> "...and then there was nothing...except a small group of very confused fleas wondering from where their next meal would come"
[18:05] <lbarms> lol
[18:05] <KK> LOL, TIka!
[18:05] * Sedina snickers at Tika
[18:06] <cjws> lol
[18:06] <Rambart20> chuckles
[18:06] <Shiral> Back, cats fed - QUIET falls... <G>
[18:06] * Kiri` gets a portal
[18:06] <Wrengl> send a deryni hater through the portal to clean the area and give the fleas a meal!
[18:06] <hygilac> pity the poor slob who is the next to use that protal!
[18:06] * ash wanders back thru after an encounter with the ex
[18:06] <scribbler> Better yet, send Teymuraz....
[18:06] <ash> evenin all
[18:06] <KK> Hi, Ash.
[18:06] <hygilac> Hi ash
[18:06] <Tika> LOL scribbler
[18:06] <cjws> hi ash
[18:06] <scribbler> welcome back, ash....
[18:06] <Shiral> Now Hey, why did I never think of Transfer portals for De-fleaing the cats?? <G>
[18:06] <Sedina> wb ash
[18:06] <Wrengl> hi ash
[18:06] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Is it possible to construct a Portal that is upright, rather than on the ground?
[18:06] <Shiral> Gotta be cheaper than Advantage...
[18:07] * ash seriously regrets giving up alcohol at this point in time
[18:07] <KK> Huh, Kelos?
[18:07] <Rambart20> like on a wall
[18:07] <Kiri`> moved out?
[18:07] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Right!
[18:07] <KK> Why?
[18:07] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Just to be different?
[18:07] <KK> Moved out.  Left.  Voted with her feet,
[18:07] <Kiri`> ash - you ok?
[18:07] <Shiral> So.. you'd reach out and touch the wall to transport?
[18:07] <Kiri`> aww.. she have a different house?  *hopes she's ok*
[18:07] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Not sure yet.
[18:07] *** Mouse  has joined #Deryni_Destinations

[18:14] <Bynw> it's a beautiful girl that gets to wear that dress too *all starry eyed*

[18:15] <Rambart20> awesome kendall

[18:15] <Tika> so we have to trim it up a bit
[18:15] <Kelos_al-Hazar> "If there is such a thing as a right snit, is there such a thing as a left snit, or a wrong one?"
[18:15] <scribbler> Congrats, Kendall!

[18:15] <Kendall> and I got a new computer
[18:15] <KK> Well, Jedi and Michaelines have a lot in common....  ;-)
[18:16] <Tika> hehehe
[18:16] <Shiral> Having troubles, here
[18:16] * ash remembers being 15
[18:16] *** Shiral Quit
[18:16] <ash> argh... the horror...
[18:16] <Bynw> Tika is the Michaeline (sort of)
[18:16] <Rambart20> I think there is some sort of barrier over the midwest that prevents some of us going to Darkover
[18:16] <Bynw> and
[18:16] * Bynw is the Jedi
[18:16] *** Shiral  has joined #Deryni_Destinations 
[18:16] * Tika never wished for youth to come back... especially teenage years

[18:17] <Kendall> is SD considered part of the midwest
[18:17] <Tika> ya, and Jessie has to be there too!
[18:17] <Rambart20> I think it is just in Iowa and Wisconsin
[18:17] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Hm.
[18:17] <Tika> and Bynw's family
[18:17] <Sedina> Wrong state, Kendall...I'm in North Dakota.  *g*
[18:17] <Bynw> There better not be anything blocking Iowa
[18:17] <Kendall> where is Jessie anyway?
[18:17] <Bynw> ah Missouri?
[18:17] <Wrengl> had to leave
[18:17] <scribbler> she had to leave -- very mysteriously....
[18:17] <Sedina> Jessie had to run and do something
[18:17] <Kelos_al-Hazar> "Snit: A state of agitation." Date of first appearance in English, 1939.
[18:17] <KK> Down south, isn't she?
[18:17] <Rambart20> well just the western section then
[18:17] <Shiral> Katherine, I suspect you've been a Jedi for years at least in spirit <G>
[18:18] <KK> Probably.
[18:18] <Sedina> As far as state, she's from Missouri
[18:18] <KK> That sounds about right.
[18:18] <Mike_Mc> She and I both are from Missouri
[18:18] <Rambart20> hey Bynw, you looking forward to the episode 2 trailer this week
[18:18] <Kelos_al-Hazar> (Information courtesy of http://www.m-w.com)
[18:18] <Bynw> I've already seen both of them
[18:18] <Sedina> And there had been not be some block preventing her from coming!  *lol*  I need my "mum/twin" to be at the con.  *g*

[18:21] <scribbler> Ola, Hood --
[18:21] <ash> ack. mischan
[18:21] <Sedina> Bynw - you need to lock down the portal so that people can only come in and can't actually leave
[18:21] <Wrengl> hi gho
[18:21] * Tika thinks that would make a great song
[18:22] <cjws> hotel derynifornia
[18:22] <Bynw> LOL
[18:22] <Tika> hehehe
[18:22] <Kiri`> lol!!
[18:22] <Sedina> scribs - you missed the H on that word.  *g*
[18:22] * scribbler closes her eyes and thinks strongly, "Jasta.....Jasta.....Jasta....."
[18:22] <Rambart20> chuckles
[18:22] <Tika> I'm so glad SOMEone got the refernce, cjws!!!
[18:22] <cjws> ;-)
[18:22] <Sedina> I got it as well, Tika.  *l*
[18:22] <scribbler> Sorry, Sedina -- I forgot (the H is silent, after all....)
[18:22] <Tika> btw, we still need to use your contacts in the music biz to find and kidnap Kevin Cronin
[18:22] <Wrengl> i got the reference tika
[18:22] <Tika> that way he can sing at my wedding
[18:22] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Friend of mine said that "Hotel California" is referring to Hell...
[18:22] <Rambart20> me too
[18:22] <Kendall> brb
[18:23] <scribbler> Tika -- I heard that song non-stop for about a week in 1977....
[18:23] <Tika> scribbler, ack
[18:23] <ash> I like the Gypsy Kings cover of the song
[18:23] <Sedina> Scribs - no problem.  *g*  I just happen to notice things like that since that's my OTHER degree.  *l*  Me - the strange woman who has degrees in chemistry and Spanish of all things
[18:23] <scribbler> it was on the jukebox at the Redwood DriveIn in Boonville, CA -- I was there with a church group teaching Bible class.....
[18:23] <Tika> spanish chemistry sounds dangerous
[18:24] <KK> Chemistry and Spanish, eh?  I'll match you with Chemistry and History!
[18:24] <Shiral> Si si!
[18:24] <Golux> Hey, Ray!  Need some help on the homework?
[18:24] <Sedina> LOL KK - just need another class and I could throw biology in with the mix
[18:24] * Shiral can barely boil water on a bunsen burner...
[18:24] <Bynw> lol
[18:24] <KK> Kowabunga, Batman!
[18:24] * Sedina was insane and attempted to do a triple major in 4 years
[18:24] <great_hooded_one> no, not really
[18:24] <Kendall> I'll see you with NT Greek and Biology
[18:24] <Kelos_al-Hazar> My Dad graduated with a double major in 1955...Mechanical AND Electrical Engineering.
[18:24] <great_hooded_one> all i have to do now is copying
[18:25] <Tika> Sedina..... WAS?
[18:25] <Sedina> Yes, but ME and EE share a lot of the same classes though, Kelos
[18:25] <Shiral> Still pretty nuts, Tika <G>
[18:25] * Sedina smacks Tika with a tiny trout
[18:25] <Kiri`> scrib.. there's a hotel in van nuys that uses it for their phone system..   
[18:25] * Tika chuckles
[18:25] <scribbler> Not too many common classes for Chem and Spanish....
[18:25] <cjws> how to make a spanish fly....
[18:25] <Sedina> No...there were only 2 classes that any of my majors shared...and those were my biochem classes.
[18:25] <Bynw> bad
[18:25] <Bynw> very bad
[18:25] <cjws> ;-)
[18:25] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Anyone have a strategy for proving a laptop's legit assuming there is no CDROM or floppy drive in it?
[18:26] <scribbler> Naughty Carolyn!
[18:26] <Kelos_al-Hazar> WITHOUT messing Windows up?
[18:26] <cjws> snerk
[18:26] * Tika makes a mental note to bring extra fish for carolyn...
[18:26] <Shiral> All Spaniards, or only the insects? <G>
[18:26] <cjws> aeroespania
[18:26] * Sedina simply shakes her head
[18:26] <scribbler> Is this at the security checkin? Other than switching it on, not sure....you might ask at check-in....
[18:27] <Kendall> sorry, the heat is out in the house again and I show my wife how to turn on the gas fireplace
[18:27] <Shiral> You don't always end up in the right place, but getting there is most of the fun, anyway.
[18:27] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Reason I ask: I think I may leave the DVDROM/LS-120 combo drive at home...
[18:27] <Bynw> just turn it on should be enough IF they question it
[18:27] <Sedina> That's all that I've ever seen them ask people to do...simply turn it on
[18:27] <Kelos_al-Hazar> And yes, I realize I'll need to switch the machine on. Just have to figure out how to do so without messing up Windows (it's notorious about messing up if you shut it off without shutting down!)
[18:28] <KK> And make sure the battery is fully charged, so it'll run.
[18:28] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Yes, KK...That, fortunately, will not be a problem.
[18:28] <KK> I think they'll give time to shut down properly.  I hope.
[18:29] <Sedina> They have when I've been through the airport...but that wasn't during a peak traveling time like Thanksgiving is going to be
[18:29] <Tika> I'm thinking of checking in as baggage everything I have with me tomorrow except my ID and ticket...
[18:29] <Kelos_al-Hazar> (And I've got to have a charged battery; plan on trying to write (or maybe play games, dunno which) on the flight out.)
[18:29] <Tika> but then again I'm not bringing a laptop either
[18:29] <scribbler> Just allow plenty of time to shut down -- can you fire it up and put it on Sleep mode while you're in line?
[18:29] * Bynw doesnt have a laptop to bring anymore
[18:29] <Tika> sniffle
[18:29] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Prolly so...
[18:29] * Bynw sniffles
[18:29] * Shiral never had a laptop
[18:30] * Sedina huggles Bynw and Tika over the loss of their laptops
[18:30] <Shiral> just a lotta lap
[18:30] <Golux> Has anyone here talked to Rob today?
[18:30] <cjws> i have a lapcat instead
[18:30] <Shiral> No
[18:30] * scribbler is enjoying hers....and comforts Tika and Bynw over the loss of theirs....
[18:30] <Kelos_al-Hazar> MINE'S borrowed...Mom hasn't transferred ownership to me yet. :\
[18:30] <the_Bee> Bynw's lap will hopefully be occupied by Tika
[18:30] <cjws> cute
[18:30] <Shiral> I have a lapcat, but it sure won't run Windows, Carolyn <G>
[18:30] <scribbler> LOL Shiral....
[18:30] <Bynw> hmmmm
[18:30] <KK> Out of windows, maybe....
[18:30] <Kendall> careful Chriss
[18:30] <Tika> Bee, you're giving him naughty ideas LOL
[18:31] <Shiral> It will lie ON a sunny windowsill, but nothing else <G>
[18:31] <Wrengl> no lapcats here unfortunately
[18:31] <Sedina> LOL Tika...  Are you saying that Bynw really even needs help in that area?  *l*
[18:31] <Shiral> I didn't think he needed anybody to give him those, Tika <G>
[18:31] <Kelos_al-Hazar> Cats most certainly do NOT do Windows...or windows.
[18:31] <KK> Well, I'd better head out, gang.  I've got a story to finish tomorrow.
[18:31] <Tika> actually lapcats usually crash when they find windows (esp. with sunlight!)
[18:31] <Shiral> GMTA Sedina
[18:31] <Shiral> Good Luck, KK
[18:31] <cjws> happy to see you kk:-)

[18:33] * Tika imagines Kelos saying that with a Mr. T accent
