[18:30] <duck> congrats bernie
[18:30] <Emily> Oh, Hi again, how is little Rhys doing?
[18:30] <Lady_Marian> It will look good on my resume, and these days, every little boost toward getting consideration for a job help!
[18:30] <Sedina> bad news, duck??  *huggles*  That doesn't sound good
[18:30] <Lady_Marian> helps
[18:30] <Rambart20> :-(
[18:30] <Shiral> What news?
[18:30] <Emily> What's up Donald?
[18:30] <Wrengl> huggles duck
[18:30] <Lady_Marian> He's crawling up to try to get the keyboard again!
[18:30] <virtualbabe> Hy Rhyse
[18:30] <Lady_Marian> He's 13 months old, cruising furniture, cutting molars and being professionally cute
[18:31] <Sedina> Berni - he just wants to get a chance to say hi to the person that created his name sake, that's all.   
[18:31] <Emily> I simply CANNOT do any of my stuff on the computer when Chris is around, He starts banging on the keyboard.
[18:31] <virtualbabe> hey Berni, it's a tough job but someone's gotta do it
[18:31] <Lady_Marian> Hold on a sec and I'll put him on my lap...
[18:31] <duck> give him a set of drums emily
[18:31] <Wrengl> lol duck
[18:31] <Emily> Oh NOOOOOOOOO and I thought you liked me Duck!!!
[18:31] <KK> I'm back.  I wish they put it in smaller tins, though.  A pint of anything is too much for me.
[18:31] <Lady_Marian> There... he's happier now... but you'll probably see some gibberish here eventually
[18:32] <Wrengl> LOL katherine.
[18:32] <Shiral> Hey, just split it with us, KK
[18:32] <Lady_Marian> hiiiikj
[18:32] <Wrengl> that is why Kathi and I will be sharing a can of Bulmers
[18:32] <Lady_Marian> c     ''''''''lllllllllllllllllllllll/
[18:32] <KK> Here's a straw.  Slurp it up!
[18:32] <Emily> Brings to mind that line Pippin says in LOTR, you mean they come in PINTS?!!!
[18:32] <Shiral> Slurp!

[18:32] * Sedina waves at little Rhys Michael
[18:32] <Emily> Ah, Rhys has struck
[18:32] <Lady_Marian> ,,,,,,,,m rgnhhythsx
[18:33] <Lady_Marian> xdhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[18:33] <Sedina> and continues to strike apparently 
[18:33] <Shiral> and struck and struck, I think Emily <G>
[18:33] <Shiral> He sure likes H's
[18:33] * the_Bee swarms and divebombs peer
[18:33] <Emily> My, he's quite productive, imagine what he could do with a pot of honey? Hmmmmmmm?
[18:33] <Lady_Marian> There...
[18:33] <Rambart20> * lobs corned beef at peer
[18:33] <Lady_Marian> I distracted him with some fresh milk
[18:33] <Shiral> BTW, KK, I'm still waiting for my copy of The Cat Mummy to arrive. Hope it will be here this week
[18:34] <duck> nah keep him on the keyboard berni
[18:34] <Emily> Ah, breast feeding is handy, ain't it?
[18:34] <Lady_Marian> Ah... I just noticed that in that one line Rhys typed he got the letters of his name in there.
[18:34] <KK> It is such a sweet book--though sad, too.
[18:34] <Rambart20> hey all I need to get off
[18:34] <Shiral> Bye Bart
[18:34] <Bynw> see ya bart
[18:34] <Jessie> bye Bart -- huggles
[18:34] <Emily> See ya later Bart, happy St. Pat's
[18:34] <Lady_Marian> bye bart
[18:34] <Sedina> Bye Bart
[18:34] <Lady_Marian> take care
[18:34] <virtualbabe> later Bart.
[18:34] <the_Bee> seeya bart
[18:34] <hygilac> bye Bart
[18:34] <Rambart20> talk to y'all next weeek
[18:34] <Rambart20> bye
[18:34] <Wrengl> cya bart
[18:34] <Shiral> Cruise the Corn, Bart
[18:34] <Rambart20> *steps onto his portal and is gone
[18:34] <duck> ciao bart
[18:34] *** Rambart20 has left #Deryni_Destinations
[18:34] <Lady_Marian> Actually, Rhys has graduated to a sippy cup, Emily
[18:34] <Emily> Donald, what about this bad news, you were mentioning earlier
[18:35] <Lady_Marian> He weaned himself some time ago.
[18:35] <Emily> That's good too, I like the new ones with the special valves that help the cup not to leak
[18:35] <KK> For the rest of you, The Cat Mummy is a wonderful/sad children's book I told Melissa about, concerning a little girl whose beloved elderly cat dies, and she's been studying mummies in school, so she decides to make a mummy
of her cat, because she can't bear to bury it.
[18:35] <Emily> rather handy around a keyboard
[18:35] <Lady_Marian> Katherine, I'll have an updated picture of the little rascal up on my website in a few weeks once I get a working scanner again.
[18:35] *** majorsprop has quit IRC (QUIT: Leaving)
[18:35] <Bynw> thats sounds sad
[18:36] <Lady_Marian> I'll let you know when.
[18:36] <Wrengl> sounds verra sad
[18:36] <Lady_Marian> It does... Who wrote it?
[18:36] <Lady_Marian> My daughter Erin would like that.
[18:36] <virtualbabe> that sounds like it would be a good one katherine
[18:36] <Shiral> Jacqueline Wilson
[18:36] <Emily> Chris is at the top of the stairs calling "Mommy, where are you? Mommy come here right now?  Mommy!"
[18:36] <Shiral> I had to order it from Amazon UK
[18:36] <Lady_Marian> Ah... thanks (taking note of author name)
[18:36] <Shiral> It doesn't appear to be available on this side of the pond, yet
[18:36] * Bynw thinks Chris has a cool name
[18:36] <KK> It is, but it's also sweet.  When my Bear cat died, I was able to have him cremated--which was good, because I couldn't bear to put him in the ground.  He hated the outside, and would have hated it out there.
[18:37] <Sedina> and Bynw isn't at all biased either...
[18:37] <Emily> I've always liked it too Bynw, and Chris is definately a character!
[18:37] <Lady_Marian> We only have one cat now... Vic got sudden kidney failure and the vet couldn't help...
[18:37] <Shiral> Some of Jacqueline Wilson's other books ARE available through Amazon, though
[18:37] <Lady_Marian> Erin held him on her lap while we helped him over the bridge with the shot
[18:37] * Bynw 's name is Chris too so he might be a bit biased
[18:37] <Shiral> I think Cat Mummy is just too new
[18:37] <duck> Chris's of a feather flock together
[18:37] <Wrengl> Our Cat, Saren Wallwaker, Jr. Jedi, was cremated and sits on top of one of our bookcases in the dining room.
[18:37] <Shiral> Oh, Bynw, I can't think why you'd be biased!
[18:37] <virtualbabe> condolences on the loss of your fur-baby
[18:38] <KK> It's <just> come out.  It had its own dump in the children's section, when I went in to get the 4th Harry Potter--which I intend to finish tonight.
[18:38] <Lady_Marian> He was two years old to the day... *sniff*  Erin is beginning to ask about adopting a new kitten, but I want to wait... I'm not ready yet.
[18:38] <Shiral> How's Jessicat doing, KK <G>
[18:38] <Emily> You will like the 4th book, Katherine, everyone in my house is hooked.
[18:38] <Wrengl> Poor baby, Berni.  That is young to lose
[18:39] *** Sedina has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
[18:39] * Shiral wants Harry Potter FIVE now
[18:39] * Jessie shocks Mr. Pierre with a cattle prod
[18:39] <virtualbabe> I too am hooked on Mr Potter
[18:39] <Emily> The 5th is coming out pretty soon, right?
[18:39] <Helenmary> I think the 5th one comes out in June!
[18:39] <Lady_Marian> I admit that I'm writing a Harry Potter fanfic to gift my daughter Erin with...
[18:39] <KK> Only two, and kidney failure?  That sounds almost like poison or some other catastrophic happening.
[18:39] <Shiral> I hope so....
[18:39] <Lady_Marian> The vet wasn't able to tell for sure...
[18:39] <virtualbabe> I believe 5 is not out till next year
[18:39] <Wrengl> I think so also.  Have to get my order in for HP 5.
[18:39] <Lady_Marian> Vic was the runt of the litter and had health problems most of his life
[18:39] <Shiral> Nyarrg, I hope it comes out this summer.  I don't know how much longer I can wait!
[18:40] <Wrengl> THEN when it is on Audio books we will get it so Thumper will stop asking for the next book!
[18:40] *** Sedina has joined #Deryni_Destinations 
[18:40] * virtualbabe is waiting for 5 too
[18:40] <Jessie> wb Sedina
[18:40] <Bynw> wb Sedina
[18:40] <Sedina> grrr...
[18:40] <hygilac> no, no it is supposed to be out this summer
[18:40] <duck> i'd read somewhere june this year
[18:40] <Lady_Marian> He had a sibling who was born terribly deformed (without a roof to the mouth and no jaw on the left side...
[18:40] <KK> Poor kittie.  Picture him sleeping on a sunny windowsill with all the others cats you've known and loved--and get a new kitten!  This is getting to be the right time of year for it.
[18:40] <Emily> Hi Sedina, what's up?
[18:40] <Shiral> WB, Sedina
[18:40] <virtualbabe> Hi Sedina
[18:40] <Sedina> Not much, Emily...just having to kick peer in the rump for booting me
[18:41] <RainbowDragon> My store has not yet received a publishing date for Harry Potter 5
[18:41] <Wrengl> It was last year that was skipped
[18:41] <Lady_Marian> She lasted a day, they were born late on Saturday and our vet was out of town for the weekend
[18:41] * virtualbabe is also waiting for wheel Of Time 10
[18:41] <Shiral> The other night I stepped on Izzy's paw and was rewarded with a terrible, indignant squall
[18:41] <duck> poor izzy
[18:41] <Emily> Naughty peer!!! I said no!!! Now go to "time out"!!!
[18:41] <Shiral> Yes, poor Izzy
[18:41] <Wrengl> poor izzy
[18:41] <Shiral> But she does insist on hanging around right behind me
[18:41] <Helenmary> Any word on when WOT 10 is coming out?
[18:41] <virtualbabe> nothing yet
[18:42] <Lady_Marian> I think that we'll wait until April... I don't know how Patch will take having another cat join the household yet.
[18:42] <hygilac> you should have been in my house for the claw trim if you think you have heard an angry squal
[18:42] <KK> What is Wheel of Time?
[18:42] <Lady_Marian> Robert Jordan's series
[18:42] <Jessie> series of books by Robert Jordan
[18:42] <Shiral> I've heard those too, Linda <G>
[18:42] <Wrengl> lol linda
[18:42] <virtualbabe> Robert jordan's looooooooooong epic series
[18:42] <Shiral> This was shorter and sharper
[18:42] <KK> Ah, I've heard of that.
[18:42] <hygilac> 36 major characters, i think
[18:42] <Jessie> tis good imo
[18:42] <Lady_Marian> I admit to having never read any of it...
[18:42] <virtualbabe> only 36?
[18:43] <Shiral> Me too, Marian
[18:43] <Emily> ACK! 36 major character?
[18:43] <Lady_Marian> When most of my friends were going into that, I was reading David Eddings
[18:43] <hygilac> could be more, VB
[18:43] <Shiral> Or Beryni...whichever you are....
[18:43] <Lady_Marian> LOL
[18:43] <Bynw> KK, it's the never ending story that keeps on ticking and running better than the energizer bunny
[18:43] <Shiral> Oh wow, did I just invent a new word?
[18:43] * RainbowDragon likes David Eddings
[18:43] <Lady_Marian> A new nickname, maybe
[18:43] <Lady_Marian> my fingers just won't type right tonight.
[18:43] <Jessie> :-) so do I RD (re Eddings -- and Jordan's WOT series)
[18:43] <Wrengl> Katherine, I finished Dragonfly in Amber Friday night. Planned on starting Voyager tomorrow morning on the ferry.  I am now on page 280 of voyager (paperback)
[18:44] <Lady_Marian> I'm glad I decided to take a night off of the muted groups theory paper
[18:44] <Shiral> We are too!
[18:44] <KK> Do you like it, Wrengl?
[18:44] <Wrengl> Oh yes.
[18:44] <Lady_Marian> KK, I LOVE the teaser chapters of  IN THE KING'S SERVICE!
[18:44] <Wrengl> Rudi Cat is unhappy.  and VERRA pissed at Sedina for hooking me on it.
[18:44] <virtualbabe> That is a terrific series too Pat
[18:44] <KK> Well, it gets darker.
[18:45] <Jessie> Katherine -- how about a USA trip next summer?  to the "cornfields of Iowa"
[18:45] <Wrengl> have been a jacobite since high school
[18:45] <Shiral> Who, Jamie, or IN The King's Service? <G>
[18:45] <Shiral> Or both?
[18:45] <Wrengl> Sedina told me it gets darker.
[18:45] <KK> No Iowa, but I'll be in DC for Sacred Space, the weekend after July 4.
[18:45] <Sedina> And I still say you just told Rudi Cat that it's my fault so that he won't be upset with you. 
[18:45] <Shiral> BRB
[18:45] <Wrengl> the 1968 stuff is VERRA much fun since I was graduating college that year.
[18:46] <Emily> I' ve never been to Sacred Space, it's a religious/spiritual conference, right?
[18:46] <Jessie> KK:  how about if a group paid your airfare to spend a week-end in Iowa?
[18:46] <KK> This could be done.
[18:46] <Jessie> :-)
[18:46] <Lady_Marian>
[18:46] <hygilac> What is Sacred Space, KK?
[18:46] <Jessie> Midwest DeryniFest
[18:46] <Lady_Marian> Iowa... I've never been there.
[18:47] <duck> neither have a lot of us
[18:47] <KK> I told Shiral years ago that I'd be glad to do a mini-Deryni-con anytime, if my expenses are paid.
[18:47] <virtualbabe> Katherine, I've got a question.  Will chronicles (the director's cut) be coming out in HC?
[18:47] <Lady_Marian> *muttering to self* Hmmmm. must discuss possible vacation with husband...
[18:47] <Shiral> Back
[18:47] <Wrengl> Isn't Sacred Space a religious type conference?  Like Ecumenacon was?
[18:48] <KK> Sacred Space is an esoteric conference, similar to a con, but with mostly classes rather than panels.  Some ritual work.  I work the esoteric Christianity track, when I come.
[18:48] <hygilac> okay
[18:48] <virtualbabe> interesting
[18:48] <Wrengl> I remember how interesting Ecumenacon was.
[18:48] <KK> Yes, it's a direct descendant of Esotericon--but not quite as good--or at least not as much to my taste.  It's good, though.
[18:48] <Shiral> Speaking of Director's cut, I scanned chapter eleven this morning
[18:48] <hygilac> Sounds interesting
[18:48] <Shiral> morning
[18:48] <KK> Excellent!
[18:49] <Shiral> No Sean Lord Deny, but Bran Coris came out Bran Cons
[18:49] <Wrengl> We did not attend Esotericon
[18:49] <hygilac> hmmm. . .David informs me there are no minor characters in Wheel of Time
[18:49] <hygilac> Does that sound reasonable?
[18:49] <Jessie> :-)
[18:49] <KK> I've been thinking about things I'll want to rewiggle, to fit in with stuff I'm doing in the Childe material.  What a blessing, to get to do that.
[18:49] <Wrengl> LOL Linda
[18:49] <Shiral> I'll be sending a few notes along with it
[18:49] <Lady_Marian> And a blessing for us too, to get to read it when it's done!
[18:50] <Shiral> Definitely, Beryni<G>
[18:50] * Bynw is looking at the 3rd weekend in July for the Midwest Deryni Gathering
[18:50] <KK> I think that's a good nickname.
[18:50] <Wrengl> Definitely berni.  Looking forward to the Director's Cut!
[18:50] <virtualbabe> reminds me of what my spellchecker did with conall once. he ended up being con all
[18:50] <Shiral> Doing a chapter a week has worked well so far
[18:50] <Wrengl> What city, Bynw?
[18:50] <hygilac> oh dear--thunder
[18:50] <Emily> Uh oh, better go, sounds like the kids are wreaking havoc upstairs, I hope I don't find Bill tied up with the kids dancing around him
[18:50] <hygilac> I need to go folks
[18:51] <Wrengl> cya Linda
[18:51] <Wrengl> huggles linda
[18:51] <Shiral> Well, he kind of DID con all <G>
[18:51] <Emily> bye Linda
[18:51] <Shiral> Bye and Huggles, Linda
[18:51] <virtualbabe> bye-eee linda
[18:51] <Sedina> Bye Linda
[18:51] <Jessie> bye hygilac & Emily
[18:51] <hygilac> Katherine, have a good writing week
[18:51] <KK> Bynw, that might be a problem for this year, since I'm at the Michaeline Retreat the following weekend and most of the week in between--and I don't think I can stay for a third weekend.
[18:51] <Shiral> Bye Emily, come back soon
[18:51] <Wrengl> bye emily
[18:51] <KK> Night, Linda.
[18:51] <Bynw> Wrengl, Des Moines Iowa
[18:51] <Lady_Marian> *grin* I think I'll try to use that one next week then Shiral!
[18:51] *** hygilac has quit IRC (QUIT: )
[18:51] <Wrengl> cya soon hopefully
[18:51] <Emily> It was good to chat with everybody, talk to you all later, have a good week! :-)
[18:51] <Sedina> Bye Emily
[18:51] <Wrengl> Probably too far for us but who knows
[18:51] <KK> Night, emily.
[18:52] <Bynw> cya Emily
[18:52] <Shiral> Too far for me, alas
[18:52] <Lady_Marian> bye Emily
[18:52] <the_Bee> bye emily
[18:52] *** Emily has left #Deryni_Destinations
[18:52] <Lady_Marian> Hey, wish me luck, I'm going to a job fair for prospective college graduates on Wednesday...
[18:52] <Lady_Marian> I'm hoping to pull some possibilities there.
[18:52] <Shiral> Good luck!
[18:52] <virtualbabe> good luck Berni
[18:52] <Wrengl> good luck berni
[18:52] <Lady_Marian> My nephew is also going!
[18:52] <Lady_Marian> I feel old!
[18:52] <KK> I don't envy folk having to brave the job market right now.  Good luck!
[18:52] * Wrengl thumper says he will keep his paws crossed that you find something.
[18:53] <Lady_Marian> Well, I don't actually graduate until December
[18:53] <Shiral> It just pays to be prepared
[18:53] <Lady_Marian> and I'm looking for civil service work, since that's more stable, if I can get it
[18:53] <Lady_Marian> Public Affairs type stuff, hopefully.
[18:53] <KK> Your military maybe will help.
[18:53] <Wrengl> I can certainly say civil service work is stable - in my 27th year with NYC
[18:53] <Lady_Marian> Yep... sure will... and I still have my clearance which will help even more
[18:53] <the_Bee> Friday was my last day of work.  They closed the library
[18:54] <Wrengl> indeed it does.
[18:54] <Lady_Marian> aw, darn.
[18:54] <Wrengl> Aw nuts Bee
[18:54] <KK> I was with LAPD for 13 years--and still could have been there, if I'd wanted.  I sure had tenure....
[18:54] * virtualbabe cannot see the logic of closing a library
[18:54] <Shiral> Seniority can really help
[18:54] <KK> Closed it for good?!  Blasphemy!
[18:54] <Lady_Marian> Katherine, I can't believe it's been 14 years since we met at Brighton Worldcon.
[18:54] <Shiral> Definitely!
[18:54] <Wrengl> Horror of horrors to close a library
[18:55] <Lady_Marian> I still have the embroidered panel to the cope I wore in that masquerade, although the rest of it has disintegrated with age...
[18:55] <Bynw> close a library... that should be a capital offence
[18:55] <Shiral> I'm spoiled out here as our community is very supportive of us in the library
[18:55] <the_Bee> DMH closed all their libraries.  My boss thinks they'll reopen in a couple of years, once they realize what they're missing
[18:55] <KK> That's about right.  And today is my and Scott's 20th anniversary of our second incarnation.  Hard to believe.
[18:55] <Wrengl> indeed it should bynw
[18:55] <Shiral> Congratulations, KK
[18:55] <Lady_Marian> We have a Carnegie Library here that gets a lot of local support
[18:55] <Bynw> congrats KK
[18:55] <Lady_Marian> Congrats!
[18:55] <RainbowDragon> Second Incarnation?
[18:55] <virtualbabe> speaking of which katherine, do you still practice hypnosis?
[18:55] <Shiral> And eek, I have to return to being a responsible employee
[18:55] <Lady_Marian> That was the weekend before I went back to the states to marry my Steve.
[18:55] <KK> Sometimes, Babe.
[18:55] <Wrengl> congratulations Katherine, and Scott
[18:56] <Shiral> Katherine, have a GREAT and productive writing week!
[18:56] <Lady_Marian> So we've been married 14 and a half years.
[18:56] <Wrengl> cya melissa
[18:56] <Sedina> Bye Shiral
[18:56] * Shiral sends KK a burst of powerful inspiration
[18:56] <Shiral> BYE and huggles to all
[18:56] <Lady_Marian> Take care Shiral!
[18:56] <virtualbabe> Bye-eee Melissa
[18:56] <Shiral> I'll be back this evening at least
[18:56] <KK> Second incarnation--we'd met and dated for about 6 months, some 7 years before, but we weren't ready for one another yet.
[18:56] <the_Bee> have a good week Melissa
[18:56] <Lady_Marian>
[18:57] <KK> Bye, Melissa!
[18:57] * Shiral steps onto her transfer portal and disappears in a St. Gabriel Blue Shimmer
[18:57] <Shiral> BYE
[18:57] <Jessie> bye & huggles Shiral
[18:57] *** Shiral has quit IRC (QUIT: Leaving)
[18:57] <Lady_Marian> If I'd met Steve when I was 20 I doubt I'd have married him for similar reasons
[18:57] <Bynw> Teek and I will be on our 4 month wedding anniv in 7 days ... and April will mark 5 years of being together
[18:57] <RainbowDragon> ahhhh, now I see
[18:57] <Wrengl> congratulations Bynw and Tika, who is absent
[18:57] <Lady_Marian> But being 26 when we got married... that worked
[18:58] <KK> We consider this anniversary just as important as our wedding anniversary.  (20 years ago today, we went out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant--so I made enchilladas tonight.  :-)
[18:58] * virtualbabe is still unmarried <sob>
[18:58] <Wrengl> That is a good way to celebrate, katherine
[18:58] <KK> Babe, don't fret.  The right person is worth waiting for.  I was 38!
[18:58] <duck> bachelors and spinsters unite
[18:58] <Bynw> Definately worth waiting for VB
[18:58] <duck> make fun of the married people
[18:59] <Wrengl> And if the right person does not come around, better to not marry.  I never did, VB
[18:59] <KK> Far better to be contentedly single than miserably married--though happily married is best of all!
[18:59] <Sedina> and we know that duck likes to do that, don't we? 
[18:59] <duck> marriage is an institution and who wants to be in an institution
[18:59] <Lady_Marian> Steve and my first actual date was my unit's Christmas Party at one of those "Medieval Feasts" in London...
[18:59] <Wrengl> LOL duck
[18:59] <KK> Depends on whether you've got the right fellow-inmate, Duck!
[18:59] <Lady_Marian> Twenty years ago I assumed that I'd never marry... things change sometimes.
[19:00] <Wrengl> indeed they do
[19:00] <KK> Yep. I'd reached the point when I decided that maybe it wasn't going to happen, this time around.  And then Scott came back into my life....
[19:00] <the_Bee> I'd love a wedding, but I can't imagine living with the guy afterwards
[19:00] <virtualbabe> and the second time it worked.  I'm happy for you
[19:01] <Wrengl> lol bee
[19:01] <Sedina> lol bee
[19:01] <duck> weddings are fun - especially if you can sit up the back and laugh wholeheartedly throughout the ceremony
[19:01] <KK> Just remember, ladies--and gentlemen--it isn't the wedding that's important, it's the marriage--hopefully, to your very best friend!
[19:01] <Lady_Marian> Well, Bee, you could always do what Steve and I had to... get married, have a honeymoon and then be separated by 3000 miles for the first 14 months of the marriage
[19:01] <Lady_Marian> Thanks to the Air Force and Navy, we only had about six weeks together during the first two years
[19:02] <Bynw> I totally agree Katherine
[19:02] <virtualbabe> That happens alot to my Bro/SiL.  He's in the canadian navy
[19:02] <Lady_Marian> That separation really made me appreciate being with Steve---and does so to this very day... I can honestly say we've never had a fight in all fourteen years
[19:02] <Lady_Marian> because things most people fight about seem so trivial in comparison to that separation 
[19:03] <virtualbabe> I can believe it Berni
[19:03] <Lady_Marian> And it also helps that he's a Deryni fan too!
[19:03] <Lady_Marian>
[19:03] <KK> Jessie, I'll answer your today questions tomorrow; I just picked them up before I came online.
[19:03] <Sedina> that's a definite plus, Berni
[19:04] <Lady_Marian> I think he's a changeling....
[19:04] <Lady_Marian> All the other people in his family are obsessed with sports and hunting and drinking... Steve is obsessed by books and old movies.
[19:04] <Jessie> sorry about having more questions Katherine
[19:04] <Sedina> lol  Either he's a changling or he's adopted, Berni 
[19:05] <Lady_Marian> nah...not adopted, he looks just like his sibs... He's the oldest boy though, so I think he just claimed the lions share of brains given to the family as a whole!
[19:05] <KK> LOL, tell me about old movies.  I think we rewatched 3-4 different versions of Prisoner of Zenda this weekend.  Scott is working on a script for a TV mini-series based on it, along with its sequel, Rupert of Hentzau.
[19:05] <virtualbabe> well some guys do get it right berni
[19:05] <Lady_Marian> ah... I Love that story
[19:06] <KK> We'll hope some producer also loves it.
[19:06] <Lady_Marian> Steve watched North by Northwest last night... He's on a Hitchcock binge this week
[19:06] <Wrengl> hope so katherine
[19:06] <Lady_Marian> Me too!
[19:06] <virtualbabe> I'm debating whether to watch the Matthew Shepard story tonight
[19:07] <KK> Well, I've finished my Bulmer's, and it's after pumpkin time, so I think I'd better sign off now.
[19:07] <Lady_Marian> Our satellite dish got damaged by the last icestorm we had a few weeks ago, so we only have videos and DVDs to watch...
[19:07] <the_Bee> sleep well, katherine
[19:07] <virtualbabe> Sweet dreams katherine, and have a good week
[19:07] <Jessie> night Katherine & huggles -- thanks for chatting
[19:07] <RainbowDragon> VB - I watched The Laramie Project on HBO.......very moving
[19:07] <Lady_Marian> Have a good night Katherine... thanks for chatting with us and letting us pester you with questions
[19:07] <Bynw> Night Katherine
[19:07] <KK> See you all next week, same Bat Time, same Bat Channel.
[19:07] <RainbowDragon> Bye KK!
[19:07] <Sedina> Good night, Katherine.   
[19:07] <Lady_Marian> bye!

[19:08] <KK> The Supplement is shaping up very well, guys, thanks to all your help!  Thank you very much!
[19:08] <Sedina> RD - I saw that too...  Moving is an understatement
[19:08] * KK steps onto her Portal and waves good night, blowing kisses to all.
[19:09] <Sedina> Sleep well, KK!
