Mar 04 17:17:39 <DesertRose>   Hi KK!
Mar 04 17:17:42 <bynw>   hi KK
Mar 04 17:17:42 <Revanne>   Hi KK
Mar 04 17:17:47 <KK>   Hello, gang.
Mar 04 17:17:47 <Derynifank>   Hi KK
Mar 04 17:17:53 <The_Bee>   roller-coaster weather here in New England
Mar 04 17:17:53 <Demercia>   hi KK
Mar 04 17:17:58 <The_Bee>   Hi KK
Mar 04 17:18:01 <Evie>   Yes, but it was barely sprinkling when he got out, and then once it started really pouring, he decided he wanted to come in after all.
Mar 04 17:18:26 <Evie>   Though it was pouring for a fair bit before he decided that, but he was in the shelter of some brush and trees, so that might have been why
Mar 04 17:18:27 <KK>   Bee, you managed not to get frozen in--or out, or merely frozen.
Mar 04 17:18:28 <Evie>   Hi KK
Mar 04 17:18:36 <Demercia>   We're just talking about how cats don't do snow
Mar 04 17:18:50 <Derynifank>   Or cold or rain
Mar 04 17:18:53 <Revanne>   Our cats wanted to go out in the snow until they realised it was cold.
Mar 04 17:19:11 *   drakensis (~drakensis@5A6A32.FBC2F4.90D925.3A0074) has joined
Mar 04 17:19:13 <Shiral>   Hello Katherine
Mar 04 17:19:16 <KK>   Our cats do snow.  The one (white) dog--not so much, though he'll brave it if he has to.
Mar 04 17:19:18 <Shiral>   Hi Drakensis
Mar 04 17:19:21 <The_Bee>   wb drakensis
Mar 04 17:19:36 <drakensis>   hi
Mar 04 17:19:39 <Demercia>   Brandysnap says hi all.  He's just come up to see what I'm up to
Mar 04 17:19:58 <Evie>   Hi, B
Mar 04 17:19:59 <Shiral>   I don't think my cats would cope well with snow--they've never encountered it before
Mar 04 17:20:00 <Revanne>   Hi monstermog
Mar 04 17:20:29 <DesertRose>   Hi drakensis
Mar 04 17:20:33 <drakensis>   evening
Mar 04 17:20:45 <JudyWard>   Hi, KK
Mar 04 17:20:46 <jemler>   opk, i'm back. hi kk, shiral.
Mar 04 17:20:47 *   Shiral snaps fingers and produces a tea table complete with scones, cream and jam
Mar 04 17:20:53 <JudyWard>   Was off giving Jemler the menu
Mar 04 17:20:57 <Revanne>   Yum
Mar 04 17:21:06 <Derynifank>   Yummy
Mar 04 17:21:12 <jemler>   ah. i'll check. thank you.
Mar 04 17:21:15 *   The_Bee offers flagons of mead
Mar 04 17:21:19 <DesertRose>   How's it going in your neck of the woods, KK?
Mar 04 17:21:20 <Shiral>   The teapot will supply whatever sort of tea you like best
Mar 04 17:21:25 <Demercia>   lovely Shiral thanks
Mar 04 17:21:46 <Demercia>   Lapsang for me please
Mar 04 17:21:48 <Shiral>   When I take over the world, teatime will be mandatory at mid-afternoon local time
Mar 04 17:21:53 <DesertRose>   I doubt Carys would cope well with snow, either.
Mar 04 17:21:58 <Evie>   I love Lapsang
Mar 04 17:22:08 <DesertRose>   She doesn't even seem to be particularly interested in outdoors.
Mar 04 17:22:23 <Demercia>   i can go with that Shiral
Mar 04 17:22:33 <JudyWard>   poor Jethro lives in the master bath
Mar 04 17:22:38 <Shiral>   Dmitri seems to think he's a prisoner in a gilded cage--if he gets the opportunity, he escapes
Mar 04 17:22:38 <DesertRose>   You've got MY vote, Shiral!
Mar 04 17:22:54 <The_Bee>   The nearest Melantha gets to outdoors is on my balcony.
Mar 04 17:23:02 <Evie>   Gigi has no interest in going outside
Mar 04 17:23:09 <Shiral>    Alas, the funding has been problematical, DR. =o)
Mar 04 17:23:21 <Revanne>   We had a lovely meal ot today for DD1s birthday with a chocolate dessert to die for.
Mar 04 17:23:39 <DesertRose>   Carys seems to think that her outdoor-cat life is a closed chapter.  :)
Mar 04 17:23:40 <DesertRose>   Yum!
Mar 04 17:23:41 <JudyWard>   Chocolate! YUM>
Mar 04 17:23:59 <Shiral>   Glad it wasn't fatal though, Revanne. =o)
Mar 04 17:24:00 <Demercia>   B used to go out a lot but now he's a venerable elderly gentleman he stays in mostly.
Mar 04 17:24:47 <Revanne>   It might have been but we shared it between the three of us.
Mar 04 17:24:55 <Shiral>   Wise of you
Mar 04 17:25:01 <DesertRose>   Probably cold and/or damp weather isn't too nice to B's joints any more.
Mar 04 17:25:09 *   bynw has to go switch out laundry
Mar 04 17:25:54 <Revanne>   DD1 is 34 tomorrow. Scary.
Mar 04 17:26:36 <Demercia>   No.  though he has stopped pretending he can't jump on my lap and has to climb up my leg.  My neighbour took a pic of him on top of an 8 foot wall so I stopped being conned!
Mar 04 17:26:36 <DesertRose>   In your mind, she's always your little girl.  :)
Mar 04 17:26:43 <DesertRose>   LOL!
Mar 04 17:26:48 <DesertRose>   (At B's antics)
Mar 04 17:26:55 <Evie>   LOL, Demercia!
Mar 04 17:26:56 <Revanne>   Makes it difficult to pretend I'm 26.
Mar 04 17:27:02 <DesertRose>   Indeed, Revanne.
Mar 04 17:27:33 <Evie>   Don't let that stop you. I have a 23 and 20 year old, and I'm still 26.  ;-)
Mar 04 17:27:39 <DesertRose>   My uncle's (late) mother-in-law decided she liked 39 and stayed there; her children all passed that age before she died, so she'd joke about "How is my kid 50?  I'm only 39!"
Mar 04 17:27:46 <Revanne>   Lol
Mar 04 17:28:14 <drakensis>   40 is very much the same as 39 I have found
Mar 04 17:28:20 <DesertRose>   Yes.
Mar 04 17:28:34 <DesertRose>   42 doesn't seem much different from 39 either, so far.  :)
Mar 04 17:28:37 <jemler>   judy, my mother looked thru the menu. the only one i'm allowed to eat is the fruit basket! renal diet. :)
Mar 04 17:28:52 <drakensis>   oh good, DR, I was worried about that
Mar 04 17:28:58 <Shiral>   I promised a friend I'd stop growing older after I turned twelve. This didn't turn out very well. =o)
Mar 04 17:28:59 <Revanne>   :-( Jemler
Mar 04 17:29:16 <jemler>   i'm 14.
Mar 04 17:29:26 <DesertRose>   I'm not surprised, jemler.  :P
Mar 04 17:29:47 <JudyWard>   Oh, that's a shame!! I have a friend with a kidney transplant & he has to be careful, too.
Mar 04 17:29:48 <Evie>   Jemler, if you're talking about that meal plan thing, some of those companies will tailor the menu to fit your dietary restrictions, likes, and dislikes, so it might still be worth looking into.
Mar 04 17:29:49 <DesertRose>   (I'm teasing)
Mar 04 17:29:49 <Shiral>   Explains all the flying fish, around here =o)
Mar 04 17:29:56 <DesertRose>   LOL
Mar 04 17:29:56 <The_Bee>   Every birthday is my 21st.
Mar 04 17:30:04 <jemler>   there is an old saying that goes "life begins at 40" so when i turned 40, i started over.
Mar 04 17:30:16 <Demercia>   my baby cousin, who is 54 today, counts her age as 18 plus so many months
Mar 04 17:30:19 <JudyWard>   Yes, you could email them & see if they could work with your restrictions
Mar 04 17:30:27 <Shiral>   Not a bad idea, Jemler
Mar 04 17:30:28 *   Derynifank has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
Mar 04 17:30:56 <Shiral>   I might adopt it since I hung another year out to dry a month ago
Mar 04 17:30:59 <JudyWard>   Spaghetti sauce is simmering now. It'll hold for a while.
Mar 04 17:31:06 <JudyWard>   Re-hi, DF
Mar 04 17:31:07 <Revanne>   Oh  flip I forgot to send her a card.
Mar 04 17:31:13 <Demercia>   Me too Jemler
Mar 04 17:31:29 <Shiral>   Hi and welcome back Derynifank
Mar 04 17:31:48 <jemler>   i'll be 15 in 3 weeks.
Mar 04 17:31:50 <JudyWard>   I can't even count how many months after 18 I am.
Mar 04 17:32:13 <Demercia>   I did but I don't suppose it got there, I haven't had any post for days
Mar 04 17:32:20 <JudyWard>   Oh, on the email addy above, feel free to email me if you all want to.
Mar 04 17:32:25 <Revanne>   Me  neither. 15 minutes less rhan Demercia though.
Mar 04 17:32:51 <The_Bee>   I'm about to hit the 3/4-century mark.
Mar 04 17:33:12 <JudyWard>   Oh, wow, Bee! You have me beat. Just turned 67.
Mar 04 17:33:36 <jemler>   judy, you're 27, and bee is 34.
Mar 04 17:33:48 <JudyWard>   OK, I like that much better. Thanks!
Mar 04 17:33:51 <Demercia>   this year I will be the same age as the year I was born.   Minus 1900 of course😀
Mar 04 17:34:12 <KK>   Why don't we not talk about birthdays?  In all, it's better to have them than not to have them, but numbers are only numbers, after all.  :-)
Mar 04 17:34:30 <jemler>   age is just a state of time.
Mar 04 17:34:31 <Demercia>   Congrats B
Mar 04 17:34:33 <JudyWard>   True. Numbers don't count.
Mar 04 17:34:36 <Demercia>   true KK
Mar 04 17:34:39 <Revanne>   You always were better at maths than me, Demercia.
Mar 04 17:35:06 <The_Bee>   Jemler, 3/4 is 75% of a century.
Mar 04 17:35:07 <Evie>   I keep thinking there was a question that came up in the forum for KK, but now that we're here, I have no idea what it was.LOL!
Mar 04 17:35:09 <jemler>   maths. cute. :)
Mar 04 17:35:12 <Shiral>   Well yes, I've always rather enjoyed my birthday. I try to make it pleasant and do nice things for myself. And of course, it's an excellent excuse to eat cake
Mar 04 17:35:40 <Revanne>   Who needs an escuse to eat cake?
Mar 04 17:35:45 <JudyWard>   I still have Godiva chocolates to eat.
Mar 04 17:35:48 <jemler>   i'm thinking of buying a drone. a birthday gift to myself.
Mar 04 17:35:54 <Shiral>   Well strictly speaking, nobody.
Mar 04 17:36:00 <JudyWard>   That could be fun, Jemler
Mar 04 17:36:18 <Shiral>   I bought myself a new little compact camera, and a nice little jacket
Mar 04 17:36:18 <Revanne>   I have no idea why we make Maths plural,Jemler.
Mar 04 17:36:36 <Shiral>   It suggests addition, Revanne? =o)
Mar 04 17:36:44 <JudyWard>   We say "math" on this side of the pond
Mar 04 17:36:47 <jemler>   i notice it when i read bbc news every morning.
Mar 04 17:36:55 <Demercia>   was it about whether the role of King's Champion was hereditary or not Evie?
Mar 04 17:37:10 *   bynw is back
Mar 04 17:37:14 <Evie>   No, it was something from earlier
Mar 04 17:37:18 <Revanne>   Lol Shiral.
Mar 04 17:37:43 <DesertRose>   The question was about the real-world Michaelites.
Mar 04 17:37:54 <Evie>   Ah, yes!
Mar 04 17:37:55 <JudyWard>   Kelson made Alaric King's Champion & Alaric wondered how he got around the inherited status.
Mar 04 17:38:07 <JudyWard>   Probably paid someone off with a castle or two.
Mar 04 17:38:09 <DesertRose>   http://www.rhemuthcastle.com/index.php/topic,2170.msg18758.html
Mar 04 17:38:15 <DesertRose>   That link is the forum post.
Mar 04 17:39:55 <Revanne>   I can't imagine anyone contesting the dreaded Deryni Duke for the role.
Mar 04 17:40:16 *   Demercia has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
Mar 04 17:40:30 <JudyWard>   LOL! True, Revanne.
Mar 04 17:41:57 <The_Bee>   Was it Kelson or Bryon who made Alaric King's Champion?
Mar 04 17:42:05 <Shiral>   I'm sure there were no other candidates as far as Kelson was concerned
Mar 04 17:42:06 <JudyWard>   Kelson
Mar 04 17:42:07 *   Eyikl (Eyikl@OWIRCN-700764a1.ma.comcast.net) has joined
Mar 04 17:42:15 <JudyWard>   Hi, Eyiki
Mar 04 17:42:19 <jemler>   hi eyikl
Mar 04 17:42:19 <The_Bee>   hi eyiki
Mar 04 17:42:20 <Shiral>   But I'm sure Brion would have approved of his choice
Mar 04 17:42:22 <Eyikl>   hi everyone
Mar 04 17:42:24 <Evie>   Hi Eyikl
Mar 04 17:42:27 *   Demercia (Demercia@842092.C19ECF.14EC38.8559C4) has joined
Mar 04 17:42:28 <Shiral>   Hi Eyikl
Mar 04 17:42:36 <Revanne>   Hi Eyikl
Mar 04 17:42:40 <Eyikl>   hi Demercia
Mar 04 17:42:46 <bynw>   hi Eyikl
Mar 04 17:42:48 <JudyWard>   Alaric was younger when Brion was king, too.
Mar 04 17:42:57 <Demercia>   Hi Eyikl
Mar 04 17:43:23 <Revanne>   Just been rereading the Knighting of Derry. One of my favourites.
Mar 04 17:43:31 <Shiral>   Brion was more HIS protector, than he was Brion's. Except in the arcane sense
Mar 04 17:43:42 <jemler>   is there a story of Alaric's knighting?
Mar 04 17:44:19 <JudyWard>   I don't rmember one
Mar 04 17:44:27 <Demercia>   not that I remember
Mar 04 17:44:28 <Revanne>   Maybe in the King's Deryni but I can't remember it.
Mar 04 17:44:35 <DesertRose>   Hi Eyikl and rehi Demercia
Mar 04 17:44:37 <The_Bee>   It was Brion who planned for Alaric and Duncan to handle Kelson's empowerment ritual, wasn't it?
Mar 04 17:44:41 <Shiral>   I don't think so, since the King's Deryni ended before Alaric was of age for knighthood
Mar 04 17:45:03 <JudyWard>   No, nothing in there. Stops when Alaric awakened Brion's power & then when Kelson was born.
Mar 04 17:45:03 <Revanne>   I had forgotten that.
Mar 04 17:45:14 <JudyWard>   So Alaric was only 14 then.
Mar 04 17:45:36 <jemler>   i think Se was at Jorian's execution.
Mar 04 17:45:50 <Shiral>   I always enjoy it when Duncan says  "who do you think it would be, you crazy war horse? ME?"
Mar 04 17:46:02 <JudyWard>   I think he was, too, bcz Alaric was there & it was dangerous
Mar 04 17:46:13 <Shiral>   I think you're right, Judy
Mar 04 17:46:22 <JudyWard>   LOL! Shiral
Mar 04 17:46:26 <jemler>   to protect alyces son.
Mar 04 17:46:35 <JudyWard>   Yes
Mar 04 17:46:42 <Revanne>   I like to think Se helped Jorian through his ordeal somehow.
Mar 04 17:46:52 <JudyWard>   Me, too Revanne
Mar 04 17:47:00 <KK>   I haven't treated that yet, but it occurs to me that it would be good material for a short story or novella.
Mar 04 17:47:02 <jemler>   the coup de gras?
Mar 04 17:47:09 <DesertRose>   Denis says something about sensing that *someone* alleviated Jorian's pain.
Mar 04 17:47:11 *   Derynifank (Derynifank@OWIRCN-dc339139.hr.cox.net) has joined
Mar 04 17:47:15 <JudyWard>   Yes, it would, KK
Mar 04 17:47:19 <Shiral>   I wouldn't be surprised if Se granted Jorian that mercy
Mar 04 17:47:19 <DesertRose>   Rehi Derynifank
Mar 04 17:47:24 <Demercia>   it would KK
Mar 04 17:47:26 <Revanne>   Yes definitely.
Mar 04 17:47:49 <Shiral>   Do tell, KK? =o)
Mar 04 17:47:49 <Demercia>   id like to know what happened to Se.
Mar 04 17:47:52 <The_Bee>   by remotely killing him before the fire did it?
Mar 04 17:48:03 <JudyWard>   Such a great bond between Alaric & Brion, it would be very moving
Mar 04 17:48:05 <Derynifank>   HiDidn'T know I left  gladvai'M back
Mar 04 17:48:06 <KK>   I suspect t was Se who helped Jorian thorugh his ordeal.
Mar 04 17:48:11 <Evie>   There have been several people expressing interest in reading about Alaric and Richenda's wedding also
Mar 04 17:48:17 <DesertRose>   Preceptor of the Knights of the Anvil by the time Azim joins the order.  :)
Mar 04 17:48:25 <DesertRose>   (re: Se)
Mar 04 17:48:31 <Demercia>   thanks
Mar 04 17:48:33 <jemler>   kinky. ;)
Mar 04 17:48:41 <JudyWard>   Yes, me. For the last 16 years! It's a wonder KK will talk to me!
Mar 04 17:48:44 <Shiral>   And about that big battle in 1025...and about 948....
Mar 04 17:49:10 <JudyWard>   Killingford? Waiting to see that one, but guess it's at Publishers?
Mar 04 17:49:13 *   Demercia has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
Mar 04 17:49:27 <DesertRose>   I don't think KK has gotten Killingford ready for the editor yet.
Mar 04 17:49:40 <Revanne>   Poor Demercia is being Kiwied
Mar 04 17:49:50 <JudyWard>   Oh, OK. Not sure what stage it was in.
Mar 04 17:50:05 <JudyWard>   Kiwied?
Mar 04 17:50:17 <The_Bee>   KK has been occupied with much family stuff recently.
Mar 04 17:50:22 <Evie>   I'm imagining poor Demercia being pelted with hairy fruit
Mar 04 17:50:29 <DesertRose>   The chat client being mean, JudyWard.
Mar 04 17:50:31 <JudyWard>   That's true. Hope all is OK, KK
Mar 04 17:50:32 <jemler>   how's LBM?
Mar 04 17:50:44 *   Demercia (Demercia@OWIRCN-5e9b678a.static.as9105.net) has joined
Mar 04 17:50:45 <Revanne>   If you can be mibbited you can be kiwied.
Mar 04 17:50:46 <JudyWard>   Oh, Kiwi the chat client!
Mar 04 17:50:49 <DesertRose>   Rehi Demercia
Mar 04 17:51:03 <DesertRose>   Yes, not the fruit or the bird or any New Zealanders.
Mar 04 17:51:04 <Revanne>   Lol yes.
Mar 04 17:51:10 <JudyWard>   Hi, again, Demercia
Mar 04 17:51:11 <KK>   Hope to get to Kilingford Real Soon Now.  tm
Mar 04 17:51:26 <Demercia>   Hi.  Pressed the wrong tab on my iPad and kiwied myself
Mar 04 17:51:29 <JudyWard>   Sounds good.
Mar 04 17:51:29 <KK>   Killingford, too.
Mar 04 17:51:49 <Demercia>   that would be great KK
Mar 04 17:51:53 <The_Bee>   Klingonford?
Mar 04 17:52:12 <Revanne>   Lol Bee
Mar 04 17:52:19 <Shiral>   We'll be lined up to read it when the time comes
Mar 04 17:52:27 <JudyWard>   Yes, we will!
Mar 04 17:52:31 <Shiral>   WB, Demercia
Mar 04 17:52:38 <bynw>   just like always :)
Mar 04 17:52:39 <Demercia>   thanks.
Mar 04 17:53:03 <Demercia>   And hoping we can get it straight away on this side of the Pond.
Mar 04 17:53:39 <Revanne>   Or we may be seriously harassing you all for a blow by blow account.
Mar 04 17:54:22 <JudyWard>   I'm wondering if Kenneth's father or grandfather were in it.
Mar 04 17:54:24 <Shiral>   I'll be very interested in reading about Cinhil and Malcom of the 1025 era...
Mar 04 17:54:44 <Shiral>   The Morgans and the Haldanes DO seem drawn to each other
Mar 04 17:54:48 <JudyWard>   Was Malcolm born by then?
Mar 04 17:55:05 <Shiral>   Yes, since he becomes King in 1025
Mar 04 17:55:10 <Evie>   I read that as "Cinhil and Malcolm of the 1950s era" and was very confused.  VERY confused.  :-D
Mar 04 17:55:22 <Revanne>   I need to find another copy of King Javan's year so I can cry over it again. It disappeared when we moved. Unless ... /me glares suspiciously at Demercia.
Mar 04 17:55:24 <JudyWard>   OK, I'm thinking of Brion's father.
Mar 04 17:55:41 <Shiral>   Might be interesting to have a Cold War era Deryni Tale
Mar 04 17:55:45 <Demercia>   I'm going to bail out, it's been a long day and wall to wall meetings at work tomorrow.  But wanted to ask KK about early chat in April since April 1 is Easter Sunday?
Mar 04 17:55:58 <JudyWard>   Bye, Demercia. Have a good week!
Mar 04 17:56:05 <Shiral>   Night, Demercia, sleep well
Mar 04 17:56:07 <jemler>   nite, demercia
Mar 04 17:56:17 <JudyWard>   Maybe the next Sunday?
Mar 04 17:56:23 <Derynifank>   Night Demerica
Mar 04 17:56:52 <The_Bee>   Will many folks be busy early Easter afternoon?
Mar 04 17:56:52 <Revanne>   Sleep well. Notice accusation of you stealing one of my books has caused you to bail out.
Mar 04 17:56:53 <Demercia>   thanks.  And Revanne I haven't stolen your book.  We've been bickering about books since we were about 10😀
Mar 04 17:57:10 <Shiral>   LOL
Mar 04 17:57:13 <Evie>   LOL
Mar 04 17:57:22 <JudyWard>   I won't, I think. Unless Gala decides to do Easter dinner, but never has.
Mar 04 17:57:28 <Demercia>   Night all, thanks for the company.

Mar 04 17:57:49 <jemler>   Easter is also April Fools.
Mar 04 17:58:01 <Revanne>   Only til midday.
Mar 04 17:58:05 <JudyWard>   Strange coincidence there.
Mar 04 17:58:19 <Evie>   I don't know yet if I'll be busy.  Probably not,since it takes a miracle for my whole family to have the same day off at the same time, Sundays included.
Mar 04 17:58:24 <Derynifank>   Ash we e
Mar 04 17:58:29 <Revanne>   And Ash Wednesday was Valentine's
Mar 04 17:58:40 <JudyWard>   Yep, it was

Mar 04 17:58:52 <Derynifank>   Crazy fingers again
Mar 04 17:59:06 <jemler>   thought you were having a stroke.
Mar 04 17:59:08 <KK>   Do we want to make it second Sunday for April, to free up Easter?  At this point, it looks good at this end.
Mar 04 17:59:25 <JudyWard>   Works for me
Mar 04 17:59:27 <DesertRose>   Sounds good.
Mar 04 17:59:27 <jemler>   why not.
Mar 04 17:59:33 <bynw>   we can easily make that change
Mar 04 17:59:35 <The_Bee>   either's okay with me.  Just let me know.
Mar 04 17:59:35 <Evie>   Sure, sounds good
Mar 04 17:59:37 <Revanne>   Sounds good.
Mar 04 17:59:41 <Derynifank>   Good for me
Mar 04 17:59:43 <jemler>   revanne, tell demercia
Mar 04 17:59:50 <KK>   Then let it be so.

Mar 04 18:07:32 <The_Bee>   rehi DFK
Mar 04 18:07:46 <JudyWard>   I thought the Michaelines were more like the other real world order that I can't recall the name of right now.
Mar 04 18:07:57 <Shiral>   I think the technicians need to look at your transfer portal, Derynifank!
Mar 04 18:08:02 <JudyWard>   Hi again, DF & Evie
Mar 04 18:08:12 <DesertRose>   The Michaelines bear some resemblance to the Jesuits and the Templars.
Mar 04 18:08:19 <Derynifank>   Oopd, think I got kiwied again
Mar 04 18:08:34 <DesertRose>   Rehi Derynifank
Mar 04 18:08:41 <JudyWard>   Templars! Some people think the Oak Island treasure was theirs.
Mar 04 18:08:44 <KK>   When I conceived the Michaelines, I wasn't really aware of the real-world Michaelites.  Yes, combo of Jesuits and Templars.
Mar 04 18:09:06 <Derynifank>   Mostly the Templar I think
Mar 04 18:09:18 <Evie>   Temsuits.  Jesulars.
Mar 04 18:09:27 <JudyWard>   The Templars really got bad treatment.
Mar 04 18:10:00 <Shiral>   I was rereading Quest last night. Wanted to ask, is the Ordo Vox Dei a later incarnation of the Ordo Verbi Dei of Camber and Cinhil's time, or a separate order in and of itself?
Mar 04 18:10:08 <JudyWard>   Some think Fri the 13th is because of the Templars
Mar 04 18:10:09 <Derynifank>   Yes they did
Mar 04 18:11:31 <KK>   Well, a bad thing happened to the Templar on a Friday 13th, but 13s have been important for centuries if not millennia.
Mar 04 18:12:01 <KK>   Vox and Verbi = 2 different orders.
Mar 04 18:12:03 <JudyWard>   Really? Didn't know that!
Mar 04 18:12:04 <Eyikl>   What sort of things did people slander them for?
Mar 04 18:12:09 <Shiral>   Thanks.
Mar 04 18:12:30 <JudyWard>   Pope & King of France thought Templars had too much money & power,
Mar 04 18:12:34 <DesertRose>   Speaking of the Knights Templar, my stepdad has been watching a TV show called "Knightfall."
Mar 04 18:12:47 <Shiral>   "Oh those  Ordo Vox Dei Brothers are SO modern in their thinking!"
Mar 04 18:12:49 <The_Bee>   Jesus + 12 apostles = 13, one betrayed him
Mar 04 18:12:50 <JudyWard>   About the Templars?
Mar 04 18:12:58 <DesertRose>   The main characters appear to be Templars, but the costuming is. . .laughable.
Mar 04 18:12:59 <KK>   Said they were heretics, profaned the Cross, engaged in homosexuality--and that was just for starters.
Mar 04 18:13:06 <JudyWard>   Oh, yes, Bee! Hadn't thought of that.
Mar 04 18:13:46 <JudyWard>   They really got the bad end of the stick.
Mar 04 18:13:47 <KK>   Knightfall bears very little resemblance to real history of the Templars.
Mar 04 18:13:53 <The_Bee>   There may also be something in Norse legend, can't recall exactly what.
Mar 04 18:13:55 <DesertRose>   I think about the only thing they got right, costumes-wise, is the surcoats of the knights.
Mar 04 18:13:58 <Eyikl>   Oh right. I think I read a bit about them and King Phillip...
Mar 04 18:14:26 <KK>   Gus has just joined me on my lap.

Mar 04 18:14:51 <JudyWard>   Some hotels don't use a 13th floor

Mar 04 18:15:13 <JudyWard>   Gus checking up on you?
Mar 04 18:15:17 <Evie>   My husband used to work on the "14th floor" of a building that didn't have a 13th floor officially
Mar 04 18:15:35 <Derynifank>   And some other buildings skip the 13th  floor too
Mar 04 18:15:35 <DesertRose>   My new apartment building doesn't have an official 13th floor.
Mar 04 18:15:42 <DesertRose>   My old one did, though.
Mar 04 18:15:44 <Eyikl>   hi Gus
Mar 04 18:15:52 <Shiral>   The Pygmy Lions are on my art table, suddenly realizing that Kitty Supper is 15 minutes LATE
Mar 04 18:16:01 <The_Bee>   I once livedin an apartment building where there was an Apartment 12A instead of Apt 13.
Mar 04 18:16:06 <Shiral>   But they send purrs and head butts to Gus
Mar 04 18:16:13 <DesertRose>   Oh noes, Shiral!  You bad cat guardian!  No kitty food!
Mar 04 18:16:21 <DesertRose>   :P
Mar 04 18:16:57 <jemler>   how many killer kitties do you have, shiral?
Mar 04 18:16:59 <Shiral>   On that note, BRB, I better go feed 'em. Don't want TOO much cat hair over my painting
Mar 04 18:17:01 <Shiral>   Two
Mar 04 18:17:03 <DesertRose>   LOL
Mar 04 18:17:11 <Shiral>   It just seems like 6, sometimes
Mar 04 18:17:21 <Derynifank>   Just a note, don'T forget Daylight savings  time  next week
Mar 04 18:17:23 <KK>   It's not so much 13s as it's 12a plua 1.  Jesus and the 12, 12 knights of the Garter for the King and 12 for the Prince of Wales, 12 in a coven plus a leader.  See Lammas Night.
Mar 04 18:17:26 <Shiral>   BRB
Mar 04 18:17:33 <jemler>   that's 18 lives. you got your hands full.
Mar 04 18:17:47 <JudyWard>   DS time starts next Sun?
Mar 04 18:17:53 <JudyWard>   Already??????
Mar 04 18:18:00 <The_Bee>   Melantha has developed a habit of sitting in my lap, pinning my hand down and licking or biting it.
Mar 04 18:18:08 <Derynifank>   It fors, just to confuse us all
Mar 04 18:18:11 <DesertRose>   I wish we could just dispense with the time change.  It's so annoying.
Mar 04 18:18:15 <Derynifank>   Does
Mar 04 18:18:25 <jemler>   i that tonight?
Mar 04 18:18:30 <DesertRose>   No, next week, jemler
Mar 04 18:19:04 <DesertRose>   Florida is apparently kicking around a bill to have the state just STAY on DST year-round.
Mar 04 18:19:20 <Derynifank>   I too wish they would leave the  time alone
Mar 04 18:19:23 <JudyWard>   AZ stays on Standard all year.
Mar 04 18:19:23 <DesertRose>   I honestly don't care whether it's daylight saving or standard time, but pick ONE.
Mar 04 18:19:28 <DesertRose>   Yes, they do.
Mar 04 18:19:31 <jemler>   oh boy! talk about karma! Palm Sunday is on my birthday! :) heh heh heh.
Mar 04 18:19:51 <The_Bee>   Some people around here are talking of moving massachusetts into the Atlantic Time zone, or year-rouond dayligh savings.
Mar 04 18:19:58 <JudyWard>   Uh-oh, Birthdays again! <G>
Mar 04 18:20:10 <Derynifank>   Still running back and forth with dinner
Mar 04 18:20:19 <bynw>   my birthday is friday, this year should be better than last years.
Mar 04 18:20:22 <The_Bee>   Mine is March 21.
Mar 04 18:20:37 <JudyWard>   I turned the spaghetti sauce off to rest. Will then reheat & eat
Mar 04 18:20:43 <DesertRose>   But a lot of the reservations go on DST, which gets confusing if you're on a road trip in Arizona and the only broadcast radio station you can pick up is one of the reservation stations; the DJ will mention the time, and I used to think, "Wait, what?"
Mar 04 18:21:18 <JudyWard>   Gov't issue for the Rezs.
Mar 04 18:21:25 <The_Bee>   Which time zone are you in, DR?
Mar 04 18:21:27 <DesertRose>   Yup
Mar 04 18:21:32 <jemler>   at dialysis i listen to kklz las vegas.
Mar 04 18:21:35 <DesertRose>   I'm in Eastern these days, but I was born in Mountain.
Mar 04 18:21:37 <KK>   Friday is also Scott's birthday.  We're going over to Richmond to see the terra cotta warriors on display there.
Mar 04 18:21:43 <DesertRose>   Oh cool, KK!
Mar 04 18:21:52 <bynw>   thats cook Katherine
Mar 04 18:21:55 <bynw>   er cool
Mar 04 18:21:58 <JudyWard>   Happy Birthday to Scott.
Mar 04 18:22:00 <Evie>   Cool!
Mar 04 18:22:06 <DesertRose>   Happy birthday to Scott, a few days early.  :)
Mar 04 18:22:11 <JudyWard>   Take pictures?
Mar 04 18:22:13 <The_Bee>   Happy Birthday to Scott
Mar 04 18:22:35 <jemler>   is he ever gonna finish knights of the blood?
Mar 04 18:22:44 <Derynifank>   I saw them both in London and Richmond, you'll love them
Mar 04 18:22:44 <JudyWard>   And thanks to the list for birthday wishes Thurs on mine.
Mar 04 18:22:58 <DesertRose>   If they'll allow photography.  I went to a special collection of Islamic art at my local museum and they wouldn't allow photography in that exhibit for some reason.  Generally you can take pics at the museum, though.
Mar 04 18:23:02 <Derynifank>   Happy birthday Scott
Mar 04 18:23:24 <jemler>   just don't get caught! ;)
Mar 04 18:23:26 <JudyWard>   I wonder if they are coming to TX.
Mar 04 18:23:28 <DesertRose>   Yeah, no.
Mar 04 18:23:50 *   Shiral snaps fingers and refreshes the virtual tea pot
Mar 04 18:23:59 <Shiral>   Happy Birthday to Scott
Mar 04 18:24:19 <DesertRose>   They had security everywhere.  They were very nice about it; as I was taking pics of the intro area, a guard came up and very nicely informed me that photography was not allowed in the exhibit and would I please put away my phone.
Mar 04 18:24:44 <DesertRose>   So I did, but I was bummed, because there were some AMAZING pieces in the exhibit.
Mar 04 18:24:56 <KK>   No photography for the warriors.
Mar 04 18:25:01 <JudyWard>   Usually they don't allow pix if they are selling pix or a book.
Mar 04 18:25:03 <Eyikl>   Are these the Terra Cotta warriors that that mad Chinese Emperor made? THe one who tried to make himself immortal by eating mercy?
Mar 04 18:25:34 <JudyWard>   Really?? Wow!
Mar 04 18:25:42 <DesertRose>   JudyWard, I think with the Islamic art exhibit, there were a number of pieces that were VERY old and thus very fragile.
Mar 04 18:26:05 <JudyWard>   Oh, didn't know pictures would hurt them?
Mar 04 18:26:13 <Evie>   Flash photography can
Mar 04 18:26:16 <DesertRose>   There were some calligraphy displays that I'm amazed survived so long.
Mar 04 18:26:23 <KK>   He had an entire army made and buried with him, to serve him in the afterlife.  I think there are 8-10 in Richmond, mainly foot soldiers, but I think there's a chariout with horses, too.  And every single face is diffrent.  They were all made as individuals.
Mar 04 18:26:28 <JudyWard>   Oh, that's right. I never think about flash any more.
Mar 04 18:26:55 <JudyWard>   Amazing feat on the warriors
Mar 04 18:27:09 <Evie>   We had part of that exhibit here in Birmingham several years ago.  It was really cool.
Mar 04 18:27:22 <DesertRose>   Nova or one of the PBS shows did a special on the dig and the terracotta army.  It was fascinating.
Mar 04 18:27:25 <Shiral>   I remember seeing an episode of Ace of Cakes when they made a cake looking like one of the terra cotta warriors for an exhibit in MD a few years back
Mar 04 18:27:49 <Evie>   Fun!
Mar 04 18:27:59 <Shiral>   It was a really really cool cake!
Mar 04 18:28:15 <DesertRose>   I cannot imagine making a terracotta warrior out of *cake.* It seems like making one out of clay would be challenging enough!
Mar 04 18:28:16 <Shiral>   You'd think it was a real one, until they cut it for the reception.
Mar 04 18:28:28 <DesertRose>   I bet it was!
Mar 04 18:28:37 <JudyWard>   BRB. Tsin'tia II has remembered it's past her supper time.
Mar 04 18:28:41 <DesertRose>   I just shudder to think of how much WORK went into it, all for people to eat it!
Mar 04 18:28:47 <Shiral>   They used a LOT of sheet cakes piled up together and then sculpted with bread knives
Mar 04 18:29:19 <DesertRose>   I haven't got anything remotely resembling that much patience!
Mar 04 18:29:26 <Shiral>   I really enjoyed the Ace of Cakes--they made some AMAZING cakes
Mar 04 18:29:44 <The_Bee>   Years ago a friend of my mom's was visiting an English cathedral. She didn't notice the no pictures sign .  another tourist demanded,  "how can she take picures?'  "Flashbulbs."
Mar 04 18:29:44 <Derynifank>   People were taking pictures  with their phones  and no one said anything
Mar 04 18:29:48 <Evie>   That was one of my daughter's favorite series when it was on Netflix
Mar 04 18:30:00 <Evie>   Or maybe it still is on, but she finished watching all the episodes
Mar 04 18:30:01 <Shiral>   I think the most amazing was the time they built that St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow out of cake. (Not all parts were edible.)
Mar 04 18:30:07 <DesertRose>   Wow!
Mar 04 18:30:43 <DesertRose>   Now I want to see a Sagrada Familia cake!  :D
Mar 04 18:30:44 <Shiral>   I remember watching that episode and thinking "no freaking WAY!"
Mar 04 18:30:56 <Evie>   They'll still say somethng if you have the flash turned on while using your camera phone
Mar 04 18:31:18 <Shiral>   You'll either have to build it yourself, or spend thousands of dollars on that cake, DR. =o)
Mar 04 18:31:23 <DesertRose>   Yeah, nope.  :D
Mar 04 18:31:54 <Derynifank>   It's well lit and you fon'T really need flash
Mar 04 18:31:54 <DesertRose>   I'll settle for looking at pics and wishing I could afford plane tickets.  :P
Mar 04 18:32:21 <Shiral>   I'll have to look for it on Netflix, then. Currently rewatching episodes from Season 2 of The Crown.
Mar 04 18:36:21 <JudyWard>   Is Netflix very expensive?
Mar 04 18:36:40 <jemler>   abpout $15 a month.
Mar 04 18:37:04 <Shiral>   I pay about 12.00 worth it, to me.
Mar 04 18:37:16 <KK>   Cameron sent us the bits and pieces we need to get Netflix and the like, but I haven't had time to set it up yet.  Need to do some more homework first.
Mar 04 18:37:21 <JudyWard>   That's not too bad.
Mar 04 18:37:52 <jemler>   i just watched Victoria & Abdul.
Mar 04 18:37:55 <JudyWard>   We still have Time-Warner (new name now, OH, Spectrum.)
Mar 04 18:38:06 <JudyWard>   Oh, I'd love to see that movie!!
Mar 04 18:38:28 <jemler>   i'm sending it back tomorrow. netflix.
Mar 04 18:38:28 <Derynifank>   Really likes that movie
Mar 04 18:38:31 <JudyWard>   I hate PPV. Can really add up over a month.
Mar 04 18:38:34 <Evie>   It's a whole lot less than the cost of cable or satellite TV, so we switched to Netflix years ago because we just couldn't justify the cost of having over a hundred channels we never watched.
Mar 04 18:38:35 <Shiral>   I've been going through The West Wing from season 1 again
Mar 04 18:39:04 <jemler>   never watched it or the walking dead.
Mar 04 18:39:07 <JudyWard>   Lou MUST have all the racing & car channels. Not sure we'd get them with Netflix
Mar 04 18:39:14 <The_Bee>   I avoid pay-per-view. enough free stuff
Mar 04 18:39:32 <jemler>   try hulu.
Mar 04 18:39:51 <Evie>   No live broadcasts on Netflix, Judy.  It's movies and TV shows/series
Mar 04 18:39:58 <JudyWard>   Do you know how much Hulu is? I wanted to watch their series "Harlots"
Mar 04 18:40:05 <jemler>   like firefly.
Mar 04 18:40:05 <The_Bee>   I'd like to drop comcast, but \i can't find an indoor antenna that works.
Mar 04 18:40:22 <JudyWard>   Wouldn't work for us then. I hate how much we spend on that darn cable.
Mar 04 18:40:50 <The_Bee>   some hulu is free, some $12 month
Mar 04 18:41:18 <JudyWard>   Oh, that's not bad at all!
Mar 04 18:41:21 <The_Bee>   hulu+
Mar 04 18:41:26 <jemler>   i was paying $200/month for comcast tv/internet. now $85 internet.
Mar 04 18:41:56 <jemler>   miss jeopardy though. :(
Mar 04 18:42:03 <JudyWard>   Yes, we end up about $200 a month. Ouch!!!
Mar 04 18:42:17 <Derynifank>   Anyone watching the Oscars tonite?
Mar 04 18:42:25 <JudyWard>   You can watch Jeopardy on line, I think. Not live, though.
Mar 04 18:42:30 <The_Bee>   I have 400+ unwatched shows on Comcast.  I'm afraid I'll lose them if I cancel.
Mar 04 18:42:34 <JudyWard>   No, not watching them.
Mar 04 18:42:54 <JudyWard>   You need to get watching! <G>
Mar 04 18:43:12 <jemler>   Sesame Street? tonight?
Mar 04 18:43:14 <Shiral>   I'll just read about it in the paper, tomorrow.
Mar 04 18:43:19 <The_Bee>   I have comcast, can't get Jeopardy on demand.
Mar 04 18:43:26 <Derynifank>   Only movie I liked was Darkest Hour
Mar 04 18:43:30 <JudyWard>   Me too. The speeches are boring,.
Mar 04 18:43:46 <DesertRose>   My aunt and uncle DVR Jeopardy and then fast-forward through the commercials.
Mar 04 18:43:48 <The_Bee>   I've signed up for the Jeopardy tryouts this week.
Mar 04 18:43:59 <jemler>   good luck!
Mar 04 18:44:01 <JudyWard>   Oh? Hope you make it!!!
Mar 04 18:44:01 <Shiral>   I hope Coco wins for best animated feature, otherwise, I'm not that invested in who wins
Mar 04 18:44:17 <Derynifank>   Cool Bee. Let us know how it goes
Mar 04 18:44:38 <JudyWard>   Is Coco eligible? I would have thought it was released too late.
Mar 04 18:44:56 <The_Bee>   Last time I never learned how well I did.
Mar 04 18:44:57 <jemler>   someone with cable will have to record it for the rest of us!
Mar 04 18:45:14 <JudyWard>   I've signed up twice but never took the test.
Mar 04 18:45:20 <Shiral>   I believe it's been nominated. It came out around Thanksgiving. I think it's eligible as long as it was a theater release in 2017
Mar 04 18:45:28 <DesertRose>   Carys says Hi.
Mar 04 18:45:34 <jemler>   probably not old enough.
Mar 04 18:45:51 *   Shiral gives Carys an ear scritch through the computer screen
Mar 04 18:45:54 <JudyWard>   Probably so, but I didn't think it was out in 2017. Just now seeing commercials for it.
Mar 04 18:46:08 <JudyWard>   Hi, Carys.
Mar 04 18:46:12 <Shiral>   It's being released on DVD now. But it was a theater release last year
Mar 04 18:46:15 <DesertRose>   She's purring.
Mar 04 18:46:24 <JudyWard>   Oh, that must be it!
Mar 04 18:46:30 <JudyWard>   Purring is good.
Mar 04 18:46:52 <The_Bee>   Is Carys still exploring her new home?
Mar 04 18:47:03 <DesertRose>   No, she's pretty much decided that this is home now.
Mar 04 18:47:19 <DesertRose>   She has marked everything quite thoroughly so it's ALL hers. :D
Mar 04 18:47:23 <JudyWard>   It now belongs to HER.
Mar 04 18:47:42 <Shiral>   She must be enjoying the peace and quiet, too
Mar 04 18:47:46 <DesertRose>   Yup
Mar 04 18:47:53 <JudyWard>   Do you like it?
Mar 04 18:47:55 <DesertRose>   And also the "no other cats in the residence."
Mar 04 18:47:57 <DesertRose>   Yes.
Mar 04 18:48:07 <Shiral>   It must have all been stressful for her, because it was stressful for YOU
Mar 04 18:48:15 <DesertRose>   I miss my view from the old place, but all things considered, this is good.
Mar 04 18:48:21 <JudyWard>   For both of you, I'm sure.
Mar 04 18:48:38 <Shiral>   Yeah, you had a really rocky time after Irma and the aftermath
Mar 04 18:48:40 <DesertRose>   Yes, and she's usually pretty hard to ruffle, but the whole mess managed to do it.
Mar 04 18:49:03 <JudyWard>   Poor baby!
Mar 04 18:49:19 <jemler>   kitty jitters.
Mar 04 18:49:59 <DesertRose>   I'm wearing a gray cardigan that a friend gave me (she thinned out her closet, and this sweater is too warm for her in Florida), and Carys is nose-down in the sleeve.  The cardigan must still smell vaguely of my friend's kitties.
Mar 04 18:50:35 <JudyWard>   LOL! Probably.
Mar 04 18:50:50 <Derynifank>   Think I will say goodnight  Been here since 5. Have a great week everyone
Mar 04 18:50:56 <DesertRose>   G'night, Derynifank
Mar 04 18:51:06 <The_Bee>   same to you, DFK
Mar 04 18:51:11 <JudyWard>   Some friends' dachshund used to get in sleeves in the laundry with just her nose sticking out.

"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)
