[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:56:10] <jemler> hi kk
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:56:22] <jemler> been quiet here for an hour
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:56:36] <KK> Hi, Jemler.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:56:52] <KK> I expect folks will start trickling in any minute.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:57:09] <jemler> Alkari popped in, and the right back out!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:57:21] <KK> Didn't wait long enough.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:57:28] <KK> Of course, I didn't make it last week.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:57:50] <jemler> How you been?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:58:08] <KK> Good. Excellent progress in the past couple of days.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:58:31] <KK> Which leads to an important question that I may need to ask again, when more folks are here.

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:59:38] <jemler> hi Evie
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [18:59:47] <KK> Trying to find the reference to the Lanner horse that Brion received for his birthday. I believe Alyce had some input on what was chosen.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:00:32] <KK> This is when I'm especially eager for the updated Codex that will be coming out toward the end of the year.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:00:35] <jemler> I'm not used to doing this like this, so excude me:

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:00:46] <Evie> and there is much rejoicing (re: the Codex)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:00:47] <KK> Hi, Bee.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:00:54] * jemler focuses on the great crystal in the Council Chamber, and sends out a Call to the others
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:01] <the_Bee> Hi KK! How ws your week?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:01] <jemler> hi bee

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:17] <the_Bee> hi jemler!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:20] <Evie> Hi, DF!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:23] <jemler> damn, it worked!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:28] <KK> Good. I have a question for you guys to ponder. Trying to find the reference to the Lanner horse that Brion received for his birthday. I believe Alyce had some input on what was chosen.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:29] <Evie> LOL @ jemler
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:31] <the_Bee> Hello Df64
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:39] <Evie> Was it in CM, K?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:40] <DF64> 4hi all!!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:45] <jemler> hi df
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:01:56] <KK> Either CM or ITKS.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:02:28] <Evie> if so, I might be able to skim through and find it. I only have the Kindle edition of ITKS, though, and don't know if I can see both windows at once. Let me flip through CM right quick
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:02:29] <the_Bee> Lanner horse? Is that a special breed?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:03:05] <KK> Yes. Sort of a smaller R'Kassan, suitable for women and older chilidren.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:03:12] <jemler> I don't have either in ebook, format, and I can't each the printed versions!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:03:30] <Evie> OK, just found my CM...let me skim....
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:03:58] <the_Bee> How old was Brian at the end of ITKS?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:04:43] <KK> It may have been a Twelfth Night gift rather than birthday.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:04:58] <Evie> are you talking about the horse that Richeldis talks Donal into buying for Brion and the other prince, rather than the kind Brion originally wanted?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:05:28] <KK> Yes!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:06:02] <Evie> IIRC, Alyce was with the recuperating Kenneth during that scene, so not sure if she had direct input, since the implication was that Richeldis was using a particularly feminine and wifely form of "persuasion," so let's hope Alyce wasn't involved!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:07:36] <KK> That's it! Got it! Thank you!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:07:37] <Evie> OK, Alyce is already married in CM, so it must have been in ITKS
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:08:16] <KK> Yep, it's in ITKS, end of Chapter 24. Exactly what I was looking for.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:08:31] <Evie> I remember that scene because of laughing out loud at Donal's line afterwards, "I love being married, and to that woman!" right before he proposes the idea of Kenneth of giving him Alyce as a wife
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:08:43] <the_Bee> Mission Accomplished!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:09:20] <KK> Yep. As ou might be guessing, Alaric is about to get a Llanner of his own, for his 8th birthday, it having been established that he's quite the rider.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:09:55] <Evie> oh good! Alkari was just speculating this week on when poor little Alaric would be getting some pony or horse of his own to ride instead of Cockleburr
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:10:32] <the_Bee> Is there a real-world analog of a Llanner horse?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:10:34] <jemler> I wonder haw Arilan (or was it de Courcy) determined that Donal was NOT the father of Alaric. (at the end of ITKS)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:10:54] <Evie> being an equestrian herself, I think she was about ready to jump into Gwynedd and buy him something suitable at the next horse fair if you didn't take care of that by CM3. ;-)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:11:15] <KK> Well, he's ridden a succession of horses to cover ground, and his skill has increased greatly, such that Kenneth and Llion now judge that he deserves a horse of his own. Alas, it will be one of the last major gifts he receies from his father.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:11:46] <KK> Cockleburr, BTW, is in honorable retirement at Morganhall.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:14:17] <Evie> a well deserved rest
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:14:31] <DF64> 4:D
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:14:34] <jemler> did alaric ride him into the ground?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:15:23] <Evie> I wonder what a horse's view of Gwynedd would be like, if they were to tell the story?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:15:30] <KK> I picture Llanners as being a smallish Arab-type. They're about 12 hands at the withers.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:16:20] <KK> No, Cockleburr was just a big, raw-boned horse, nothing special, but a good disposition.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:16:49] <the_Bee> not a pony?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:17:14] <KK> Instead of a horse fair, they've gone down to the docks at Coroth, where a shipment of horses from across the straits in Tralia has recently arrived. I'm working on that scene right now.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:17:24] <Evie> Oh, cool!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:17:34] <jemler> Sea Horses!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:18:13] <KK> He was the horse Llion seconded fromt the stables at Coroth, suitable for getting him to Kenneth's party, but wouldn't be much missed at Coroth. And it was always Kenneth's intention to buy him a suitable horse of his own.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:18:30] <Evie> I keep finding myself wishing I could see more of the common life of the Eleven Kingdoms, which of course is difficult in a series that centers around a King and his noblemen. Maybe someday I'll happen upon a travel guide of the Eleven Kingdoms. ;-)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:19:06] <jemler> Ask the people at Michelin
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:19:06] <KK> Rob did a bit of that in Codex. Some of it is a bit silly, but some of it rings very true.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:19:36] <jemler> Who came up with Coquus Boiardius?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:19:39] <Evie> Yes, I love those bits. The truer sounding bits, I mean
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:20:08] <the_Bee> or the aqui-ducks
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:20:26] <jemler> on Lake Pericomo
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:20:32] <Evie> *headdesk*
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:21:12] <KK> He <is> a terrible punster. I expunged some of the worst groaners, but left a few.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:21:35] <jemler> Boiardius was good. Do you know who he was?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:09] <KK> Don't remember him offhand. Refresh my memory?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:22] <Evie> If you got rid of the worst groaners, then that's truly scary, considering the ones that are left.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:31] <Evie> Chef Boyardee?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:43] <Evie> That's just so wrong
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:44] <KK> YOung dogs have gone ballistic, are wrestling and rearing up like horses and doing alligator-mouth at one another.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:22:44] <jemler> he changed the spelling of his name so Americans could pronounce it. Boy-ar-dee.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:23:26] <KK> Where does he live?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:23:36] <the_Bee> Rum
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:24:04] <Evie> I watched the miniseries of The Pillars of the Earth recently, and could imagine the guy playing Prior Philip as a Duncan-like priest or bishop, only by the time the movies come out I'm sure he'll be too old as well. *sigh*
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:24:12] <KK> Ah. Well, I guess I did't pay that much attention, then, because I know I'm never going to take my characters to Rum.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:24:43] <jemler> his kitchens were right next to the Koka-Kola plant.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:24:52] <Evie> *facepalm*
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:25:06] <jemler> Evei got it
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:25:30] <KK> Like I said, some of the groaners did get through....
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:25:43] <jemler> that groaner was mine!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:25:44] <DF64> 4Matthew Macfadyen played Prior Phillip--he also starred on MI-5
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:04] <Evie> and also played Mr. Darcy in the Kiera Knightly version of Pride and Prejudice
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:05] <KK> Wish I oculd see Pillars of the Earth, but we don't get that channel.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:09] <the_Bee> M-I 5? who'd he play?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:15] <Evie> i watched it on a friend's Netflix
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:16] <jemler> 008
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:25] <Evie> and it's on DVD now via Amazon
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:26] <DF64> 4Tom--one of the head agents
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:41] <KK> Worth buying?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:43] <jemler> i could watch it on my ipad
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:26:47] <the_Bee> the first season. Tom Quinn
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:27:28] <Evie> I thought it was very well done. It has some graphic violence and a bit of nudity, so it's definitely not for general audiences, but it did a great job of capturing the feel of the Middle Ages
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:27:39] <Evie> it wasn't "Hollywood fantasy medieval" at all
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:27:41] <DF64> 4he's married to his MI-5 castmate Keeley Hawes
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:27:45] <jemler> nudity!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:27:49] <jemler> LOL
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:28:24] <KK> Would like to see The Borgias, too. I have managed to see a few of The Tudors, though was not impressed, other than for the costumes.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:29:06] <KK> THey filmed some of the tournament scenes in the early part of the series in the stable yard next to our house in Ireland, so we saw some of the actors and their costumes in person.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:29:28] <Evie> Yes, I've seen preview of The Tudors, but it looks like not much more than an excuse to watch Henry get his kit off and/or throw his weight around
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:29:44] <Evie> so haven't looked into actually watching the series
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:29:47] <jemler> that's a lot of throwin!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:29:50] <the_Bee> Isn't there a soap opera called The Tudors?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:30:16] <Evie> You saw some of the filming? Cool!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:30:19] <KK> Well, they're taking the storyline slowly. I think it's now in its third series, and some of the wives are still alive.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:30:52] <Evie> I never see filming in my yard. Maybe because there's not much call for movie series about the Alabama suburbs.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:30:52] <KK> Not a soap opera, Bee. Well, wasn't supposed to be, though I guess it is a form of soap opera. TUdor soaps.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:31:26] <jemler> Tudor soaps. Irish Spring. When will it all end?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:32:00] <KK> Irish spring is now winter of its discontent. We got out in the nick of time.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:32:17] <Evie> I liked Margaret George's fictional "Autobiography of Henry VIII" though. It managed to make him a sympathetic enough character to make you feel sorry for what he became later on in life.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:32:23] <DF64> 4the 4th and final season of the tudors ended back in Nov 2010
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:32:52] <KK> I think BBC America is showing season 3 right now.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:33:15] <KK> We watched their coverage of the Royal Wedding.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:33:27] <Evie> So did I
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:33:31] <Evie> I think
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:33:59] <KK> Most of the major networks also covered it, but I figured we'd go to a British source.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:02] <Evie> several stations covered it, but I'm pretty sure that's the one i watched, since I was certain they'd be airing it even if no one else did
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:03] <DF64> 4did you watch the wedding or not
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:10] <jemler> nope
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:16] <KK> Absolutely!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:17] <the_Bee> me neither
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:26] Join jojo has joined this channel (Mibbit@C06FE3.84EB87.C35A93.224725).
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:30] <jemler> hi jojo
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:34] <the_Bee> howdy jojo!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:37] <Evie> I only came in just as Catherine was arriving at the cathedral, though. I didn't watch all the earlier stuff with the guests being seated
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:34:43] <jojo> Howdy,y'all!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:35:09] <KK> That was fun. How'd you all like Princess Bea's Cthulu hat?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:35:25] <Evie> it was a workday, and the tornados had just come through, IIRC, so there was no way I could get time off work that week. (I work at a university counseling center)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:35:41] <the_Bee> There were a lot of snide remarks in the news about those hats.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:35:56] <KK> There were several that were cringe-worthy.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:35:59] <Evie> OMG. THE hat. I...um...either loathe it, or love it in a morbidly-fascinated sort of way.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:06] <Evie> It has its own Facebook fan page, did you know?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:07] <DF64> 4some were unreal
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:12] <jemler> i saw enough of the hats on yahoo, comcast, etc. whoever desighed those ugly looking things should be hung.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:13] <jojo> Hopefullythey brought a good sum from the charity auction.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:23] <Evie> along with lots of photoshopped parody pictures of The Hat.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:38] <DF64> 4or be forced to wear them in public
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:50] <jemler> go back to the stocks!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:36:58] <KK> Yep. Don't think the auction has been held yet.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:37:45] <KK> Did you see the one of the folks in the White House, watching the bin Laden take-down, and all with photo-shopped Cthulu hats?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:07] <jojo> no..
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:10] <the_Bee> NO! Where is it up?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:10] <KK> One has to wonder what Philip Treacy was thinking.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:13] <Evie> LOL! No, I missed that one, but I saw the Bravehat poster with Mel Gibson wearing one
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:22] <KK> LOL, I didn't see that one.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:38:50] <Evie> Hang on...I might have it uploaded somewhere, but I'll have to open my browser and see if I do before I can post the link
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:39:02] <the_Bee> anyone have a link to these hat pics?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:39:58] <Evie> http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/1396/bravehat.jpg
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:40:18] <jojo> rotfl!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:40:29] <KK> Other notably horrible hats were those of Eugenie, Princess Anne, Tara PT, Victoria Beckham...and several more of lesser awfulness. One of the best hats was Princess Letizia of Spain.

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:41:01] <jemler> that actually looks Celtic on his head. almost like antlers!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:41:02] <Evie> And here's my "FoxNews, what were you thinking, putting these headlines side by side?" laugh I got a day or two after the Royal Wedding....

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:42:25] <jemler> Bee, are you having a feeling of deja two?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:43:17] <Bee> Yes! I clicked on Evie's link and found myself invited to join DD all over again.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:43:34] <KK> LOL the Bravehat!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:43:42] Quit Bee has left this server (Quit: ).
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:43:42] <Evie> oh dear, Bee!

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:44:45] <Evie> If you have a Facebook profile, there's an entire fan page for that hat that has an album of similar pictures. Unfortunately the link can't be viewed by anyone who isn't on facebook, or I'd post it
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:45:12] <Evie> Bee, still having tech difficulties?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:45:25] <KK> I really must join Facebook.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:45:51] <Bee> Yes. I tried quittinh one nick and got both cut off.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:46:21] <Evie> Yes, we need a KK facebook page, or at least a fan page to "like" so any news you want to get out about the series can be posted to our walls
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:46:26] <DF64> 4bee is back
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:46:48] <Evie> it's a good way to draw attention to your books
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:46:49] <jemler> there's already a FB page re Deryni
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:47:04] <Bee> I'm trying to become the Bee again.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:47:11] <KK> I think several of my friends have tried to set one up for me, but I never followed through, and don't know what passwords are or anything.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:47:39] <Evie> well, yes,not knowing your own password would be a problem, unless they remember what the passwords were
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:48:11] <Evie> my husband just had to reset my son's phone voicemail password today. Turns out the boy hasn't been answering voicemails since he didn't know how to get to them, because he didn't know his password.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:48:11] <KK> I think my honorary little sister in Austria set one up, and she'd probably remember what it was. I must e-mail ner.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:48:14] <jemler> i use 'shiral' on several sites.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:49:13] * Bee can't even remember if she has a password.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:49:23] <Evie> One of my other favorite authors has a MySpace blog, but I think more people are using Facebook now than Myspace
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:49:48] <Evie> but she uses her blog to good effect to get out any updates on her book series
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:00] <Bee> Who is sh?
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:04] <Bee> she
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:10] <KK> Our local library is going to offer a free class re Facebook and Twitter, and aI think I'm going to go and see if I can figure it out. But first I gotta finish the book!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:22] <Evie> yes, do that first. ;-)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:37] <Evie> THEN you can focus on marketing it via Facebook and Twitter.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:50:59] <KK> I'm stil back pre-Kenneth's demise, filling in necessary background, and it's turned into two extra chapters, but it's good stuff!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:51:03] <jemler> forget twitter. the only thing i ever got from there was a new cousin i didn't know i had. now we are both on FB
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:51:36] <KK> I'm not particularly drawn to Twitter, but I figured I need to know what it is and what it does.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:51:51] <Evie> Annie uses Twitter quite a bit. She could probably tell you next time she's in chat
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:52:28] <jemler> personally i never got anything from knowing that someone in San Diego was sitting on their patio.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:52:30] <Evie> she uses it to keep track of "Being Human" fandom
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:52:32] <KK> Well, speaking of finishing books, I need to get going so that I can do that. Also, supper needs fixing.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:52:47] <Bee> I've avoided facebook. I like my privacy
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:52:51] <Evie> OK. We can call in a pizza order for you. ;-)
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:53:26] <KK> Me too. That's why I've been resisting. But it's getting more and more that you can't really communicate without it. Sort of like e-mail was in the beginning.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:53:32] <jemler> i'll call the dominoes in East Liverpool, but it wont get there in 30 minutes or less!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:53:36] <Evie> I have two Facebooks, but only check them about once a week. One is under my real name, only for family and close friends, and the other is my online alias, which has most of my friends I've met in online forums, SF conventions and the like
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:53:52] <KK> I use Cici's here in Staunton, Jemler.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:54:36] <jemler> I was gonna charge it on my visa!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:54:40] <KK> Or Shenandoah Pizza, if we're in town.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:54:51] <Evie> what I've liked about FB is that even if I can't do a full email to everyone, I can upload a quick status on it and all my friends on FB can see it. Which came in handy when my status was that I wasn't hurt in the recent tornado outbreak that came through B'ham
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:20] <KK> Actually, we're having leftover meatloaf--of which I make an awesome meatloaf, if I do say so myself.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:21] <Evie> Otherwise, I'd have been having to send out an email to all my contacts or make lots of calls
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:27] <Evie> Yum, that sounds good!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:37] <the_Bee> glad you're okay, Evie
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:48] <Evie> Our Cici's used to be our favorite local pizza place, but it's gone downhill. :-(
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:52] <KK> Evie, that's also a great reason to have Facebook.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:55:57] <KK> And on that note, I really must run.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:02] <KK> Nighters to all!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:13] <the_Bee> good eating and good writing, KK!
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:13] <jemler> i found friends i haven't seen/heard from for 30 years.
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:18] <jemler> nite kk
[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:18] * KK steps onto her Portal, waves goodnight, and disappears in a shower of green sparkles.

[Sunday 15 May 2011] [19:56:39] <Evie> taken from my husband's office window
