[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:23 PM] <the_Bee> I'm starting to wonder if tuneup360 was a good idea. Every few days it tells me my computer's condition is dangerous.I have AVG free and Adaware. and Macaffee. Don't
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:25 PM] <Evie> Hi, KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:27 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:27 PM] <the_Bee> Hi KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:40 PM] <KK> Hi, guys.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:03:56 PM] <jemler> hi kk
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:03 PM] <jemler> bee, read this: http://download.cnet.com/TuneUp360/3000-18512_4-75325580.html
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:15 PM] <Shiral> Hello KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:17 PM] <jemler> they don't recommend tuneupo360.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:30 PM] <Shiral> :)I didn't even have to bait my author traps this week.

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:56 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi Alkari
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:56 PM] <the_Bee> thanks, I'll see about removing it. Is it spyware, or just incompetent?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:57 PM] <Alkari> Good morning all.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:04:59 PM] <jemler> hiu alkari

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:05:13 PM] <Evie> I got done with the lastest doll costume just in time. I've been sewing beads onto itteh bitteh turnshoes.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:05:20 PM] <Alkari> Hi KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:05:32 PM] <jemler> bee, you might (stress MIGHT) need someone to remove that program.

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:05:50 PM] <jemler> hi df
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:01 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hi all
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:05 PM] <jemler> whoa~ tghat sounds good!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:07 PM] * Alkari waves to DF
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:08 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi DF
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:08 PM] <Evie> that sounds like a fabulous pudding recipe just judging by the name
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:09 PM] <Shiral> Hi DF
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:20 PM] * Evie waves to the new arrivals
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:44 PM] <jemler> incoming!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:44 PM] <Shiral> Oh, it's terrific. Just don't donate blood after eating it, all they'll get from your veins would be chocolate syrup. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:06:52 PM] * jemler throws a fish at Evie
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:07:06 PM] <Evie> you say that like it's a bad thing, Shiral. ;)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:07:06 PM] <jemler> just wanted to do that! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:07:25 PM] <Shiral> My mother is moving out of her house, and I inherited her pudding mold. It's not something I'd ever buy for myself, but it's sure cute.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:07:38 PM] <jemler> then i souldn't do dialysis, they might freak out! :)

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:08:25 PM] <cynicalmedic> Thanks!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:08:29 PM] <Shiral> It's kind of like a tall ring mold, Bee and has a lid that clips on
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:08:32 PM] <jemler> if ya gotta go! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:08:54 PM] <cynicalmedic> I have Marcel Delsauniers Death by Chocolate cookbook
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:08:59 PM] <Evie> So, how are our heroes this week, KK?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:12 PM] <Evie> (Death by Chocolate sounds like a lovely way to go! ;-) )
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:15 PM] <Shiral> I don't want to die, I just want a walk on the chocolate side.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:39 PM] <cynicalmedic> the cake is 1500 calories a slice
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:45 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12ouch
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:46 PM] <Evie> Eep!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:09:48 PM] <KK> Yes, I still have the Macadamia Nut Pudding recipe; isn't it on the website?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:10:04 PM] <the_Bee> My 2 favorite combos are peanut butter nd chocolate and peppermint and chocolate.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:10:07 PM] <Shiral> I'll have to check, but I didn't see it on a casual perusal.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:10:28 PM] <Evie> You want to bring Macadamia Nut Pudding to DragonCon, KK. You know you do. *Jedi hand wave*
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:10:31 PM] <Evie> :D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:10:55 PM] <Shiral> Evie, you might have to get Camber in on the persuasion =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:20 PM] <Shiral> And ward it "This isn't the pudding you're looking for...."
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:23 PM] <cynicalmedic> My favorite easy recipe is Oreo truffles - you smash up the cookies, add cream cheese, form them into balls, then dip in chocolate
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:26 PM] <Alkari> I have a recipe for a rich chocolate mouse, and I just add a drop or two of peppermint essence, or else make it with two of those dark after-dinner mints as part of the meldted chocolate
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:30 PM] <Evie> I'm just thinking that the 3 oz or whatever the limit is for liquid and similar substances is on an airplane might be a tad unsatisfying.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:31 PM] <KK> Kind of hard to bring it on the plane. But I can bring the recipe, if it isn't on the website. A proper steamed pudding. It used to be our regular Christmas pudding until I rediscovered bread pudding.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:11:59 PM] <Shiral> I'll email you if I don't find it on the website.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:01 PM] <Alkari> The taste is very subtle, not actually peppermint, just gives it 'something' over the rich chocolate
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:13 PM] <Shiral> But alas, I won't be able to go to Dragoncon.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:25 PM] <the_Bee> Does a chocolate mouse like cheese, Alkari?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:41 PM] <Alkari> Only if its a cheesecake :0
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:42 PM] <Shiral> Mostly chocolate mice avoid chocolate cats
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:49 PM] <jemler> do swiss mice make swiss cheese?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:51 PM] <Evie> Looks like it might be a wet weekend, given the hurricane hitting the coast earlier in the week. I'm hoping it's not too wet.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:12:59 PM] <KK> I love chocolate mint, but Scott doesn't like mint, so I couldn't put int into the Mac Nut pud.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:13:08 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hopefully, the remnants of TS Isaac won't interfere next weekend
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:13:19 PM] <the_Bee> Have they decided where Isaac is going yet?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:13:40 PM] <Shiral> Chocolate goes well with alot of things, like raspberries, oranges, strawberries, coffee and mint. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:13:45 PM] <KK> I was thinking about that, a little worried when its projected track was farthereast. But now it looks like it's heading Evie's way.

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:13:59 PM] <cynicalmedic> We actually found chocolate mint - I have some in my herb garden.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:01 PM] <jemler> hi jojo
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:03 PM] <Evie> Given that my hotel is a few blocks away from the main con hotels, and I'll have to trudge through the rain if it's a stormy weekend, I hope it blows over early enough for skies to clear by Friday
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:05 PM] <Shiral> Take your Sou'Wester to Dragoncon just in case!4
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:09 PM] <cynicalmedic> hi jojo

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:20 PM] <KK> We're in the main hotel.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:29 PM] <Shiral> So is the new Orsal successfully Orsaled?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:29 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hi jojo
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:35 PM] <Evie> Which of the main hotels, KK? Hyatt?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:41 PM] <KK> Shouldn't have too much of Isaac's rain in Atlanta, I should think.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:54 PM] <KK> I believe so.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:14:55 PM] <Evie> I noticed your programming is in the Hyatt. I think it all is, anyway
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:15 PM] * Shiral knows where Evie will spend most of her time. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:21 PM] <the_Bee> If Isaac hit Tampa, would the republicans interpret it as a Divine Message?

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:33 PM] <KK> Yes, we're in the Hyatt; I just checked.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:36 PM] <Evie> OK, Hyatt is the closest of the main hotels from where we're staying. Well, aside from the Westin, which might be slightly closer.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:38 PM] <Shiral> Hi Mayacamas
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:15:40 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12monday's events have been cancelled in Tampa

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:01 PM] <KK> Isaac isn't going to hit Tampa.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:08 PM] <the_Bee> too bad.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:15 PM] <Evie> it's veered towards Mississippi, I think
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:16 PM] <Alkari> Hi Mayacamas
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:17 PM] <KK> Why?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:19 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12surge from the storm will still hit tampa
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:27 PM] <Evie> Hi, Mayacama

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:33 PM] <jemler> bee, too bas]d Isaac isn't gonna hit tampa, or too bad for the cancelations?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:16:39 PM] <Shiral> I'll stick with earthquakes, Hurricanes don't sound fun

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:09 PM] <the_Bee> too bad it won't hit Tampa. The GOP is too used to assuming God's on their side.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:15 PM] <jemler> aren't you afraid you'll break it?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:16 PM] <cynicalmedic> We had one of those here last year - earthquakes are unusual on the east coast
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:19 PM] <Evie> My MIL is still in central FL, but I'm not expecting she'll get hit with anything more than a bunch of rain
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:54 PM] <KK> I thnk we'd bettre agree to disagree on politics here.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:17:55 PM] <Shiral> Dmitri managed to turn off my modem today. I was freaking out until I realized all I needed to do was turn on the power strip.=o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:03 PM] <the_Bee> agreed.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:06 PM] <KK> Clever cat!

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:12 PM] <jemler> everybody work a little weather magic to redirect Isaac to Tampa! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:26 PM] <Evie> Luke has wedged himself between the keyboard and the monitor, so if weird things suddenly happen, that's due to his fat body knocking the keyboard off the desk. I'll try not to let that happen. :D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:27 PM] <KK> No politics, Jemler.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:28 PM] <Shiral> He's just a cat who's got his nose into everything
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:36 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12an apple a day to keep isaac away
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:51 PM] <Evie> and here's Gigi to sit in my lap and get in the way as well
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:18:59 PM] <Shiral> I've been cleaning out my kitchen cupboards and I keep finding Dmitri in there checking them out
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:02 PM] <jemler> i'm being politically correct. i'm being a democrat! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:05 PM] <Evie> I swear they know when KK shows up
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:12 PM] <KK> I just had Gus in my lap, biting my fingers, but now he's gone up to his basket. Hurrah!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:26 PM] <Shiral> Francesca just showed up, too. She's eyeing me over the top of the laptop
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:53 PM] <Evie> I'm actually on the family computer for once. I think my laptop is recharging under some doll stuff
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:19:56 PM] <Alkari> I am now jusy doing the last of the re-potting as I move my plants and some new pots back to my re-tiled balconies
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:08 PM] <Shiral> So is the Orsal that Brion and Morgan went to see Letald von Horthy
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:16 PM] <KK> Yes, Shiral.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:36 PM] <Shiral> Who is now officially Orsaled?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:40 PM] <KK> Cool re new balcony tile, Alkari.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:41 PM] * Shiral osm
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:48 PM] <Shiral> Me isn't sure that's a verb...
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:49 PM] <KK> Letald.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:50 PM] <the_Bee> Melantha's eyeballing me.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:20:55 PM] <Evie> Has Richard met Sivorn yet? (Am I remember the right names? :D)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:06 PM] <jemler> i liked Letald in KKB. seemed like a decent guy. although his wife needs a break! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:19 PM] <Mayacamas> Kk are you doing sessions in ATL?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:25 PM] <KK> Not yet. But I've done the setup for Brion to go to Bremagne to meet the king's daughters.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:43 PM] <KK> Letald hasn't yet et his future wife, either.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:48 PM] <Shiral> He has to be pretty gifted diplomatically, being right there near both Gywnedd and Torenth and doesn't want either Kingdom mad at him.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:52 PM] <jemler> are we going to see Ryol as well?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:21:56 PM] <the_Bee> Wasn't Richard a still a bachelor when Brion defeated TheMarluk?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:22:02 PM] <KK> Yes.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:22:27 PM] <KK> It isn't until Brion is well and truly king that he decides it's safe to retire and start his own family.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:22:33 PM] <jemler> yes to whom? me or bee?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:22:34 PM] <Alkari> Just took him a while to find the right woman! ;)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:22:55 PM] <KK> Yes to Shiral.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:00 PM] <Shiral> She's certainly done her dynastic duty by Letald. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:15 PM] <Evie> M-A-N-Y times over. :D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:19 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:48 PM] <Evie> One certainly hopes she actually loves him; otherwise she has to put up with an awful lot!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:49 PM] <Shiral> Sivorn seems similarly gifted, with six living offspring.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:56 PM] <KK> They had big families, when they could. And if all the children lived, there would be a lot.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:23:57 PM] <the_Bee> daughters plural? Jehana has sisters?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:04 PM] <Shiral> Kelson may end up with LOTS of little Haldanes if Araxie takes after her mother
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:17 PM] <jemler> Women should not have children after 35. Really, 35 children are
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:17 PM] <jemler> enough.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:17 PM] <KK> Yes, two.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:25 PM] <Evie> Evie loads up a catapult to lob a basket of sardines at jemler's head
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:29 PM] <jemler> lol
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:31 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12incoming!!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:43 PM] <Shiral> That's also why they had a bit staff of nurses and nannies
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:51 PM] <Shiral> big staff
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:24:55 PM] <jemler> hey all you cats! Evie's got FISH!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:01 PM] <Alkari> One Jehana would have been more than enough!!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:05 PM] <Evie> why do you think mine are right here?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:11 PM] <Shiral> Francesca says she doesn't smell any fish
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:27 PM] <Shiral> Well.... maybe her sisters weren't as emotionally troubled
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:38 PM] <KK> Wealthy families would always have lots of nurses and nannies and wet-nurses. Parents would see their children only infrequently, in many cases.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:25:48 PM] <jemler> or mentally cock-eyed.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:26:06 PM] <Alkari> Yes, that was so sad KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:26:13 PM] <Shiral> I somehow think Kelson would be the kind of father who spent whatever time he could sneaking into the Royal Nursery
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:26:15 PM] <Evie> and maybe there weren't any known Deryni in the Bremagne Royal Family inner circle, so her...neurosis?...wasn't as noticeable before she moved to Gwynedd
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:26:32 PM] <Alkari> Yes @ Shiral
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:26:49 PM] <Shiral> He seems to love his God-Children, at any rate
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:03 PM] <KK> I think Kelson will be a hands-on father.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:14 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12yes
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:21 PM] <jemler> maybe they weren't a blatant as Morgan is. he's never made and secret of his heritage.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:29 PM] <Evie> "Javan, if you don't behave, just wait until I get my hands on you!" ;-)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:35 PM] <Shiral> I can see Kelson as the kind of husband who has sympathetic labor pains, too. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:49 PM] <KK> A lot of Deryni would decide to just lie low, where Deryni talents were concerned.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:27:58 PM] <Alkari> Morgan seems a hands-on father too
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:09 PM] <Evie> My late boss had sympathetic food cravings when I was pregnant. I used to have to remind him that I was the one who was pregnant, not him!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:15 PM] <Shiral> A prudent strategy, when being open about it could get you killed in nasty ways
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:15 PM] <KK> Definitely--or at least as much as he can be, given his duties.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:22 PM] <DesertRose> Kelson's probably the type to be Mr. Calm Cool and Collected when it's someone else's wife and child, but when it's his, he's a basket case, I'd bet.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:30 PM] <jemler> well, in Codex, they had at least 3 kids, so he obviously didn't share Araxie's memories of the births, or he would have said "No more!"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:50 PM] <Alkari> AND she had twins to start with, poos girl
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:28:57 PM] <Alkari> *poor
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:03 PM] <Shiral> Perhaps Alaric took him out for a brisk walk around the battlements. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:04 PM] <KK> Remember that Deryni cn block pain, so birthing probably isn't as traumatic.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:18 PM] <jemler> but twins are born one after the other, not both at the same time!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:27 PM] <Mayacamas> Twins r always tray
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:40 PM] <KK> It isn't yet set in stone what kids Kelson and Araxie have.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:46 PM] <Mayacamas> Twins r always traumatic
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:29:48 PM] <the_Bee> Rhys to help her with the first three, but Jerusha's birht was difficult.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:30:04 PM] <jemler> i think she would be a little preoccuied to block pain. she would need another deryni there.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:30:32 PM] <DesertRose> I thought Codex says they have twin girls and then a boy in fairly short order.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:30:34 PM] <Shiral> That will happen in winter when you're giving birth in a ruined castle where your relatives have been terribly murdered.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:30:49 PM] <the_Bee> Healers can ease birth pains.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:30:51 PM] <Evie> Breathing exercises help a bit. So does strangling one's husband or the nearest neonatal nurse when the contractions get really hard. ;-)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:31:11 PM] <Alkari> Tends to be awakward when that would mean regicide!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:31:30 PM] <KK> Codex is not always right about events in the future that I haven't written about yet. Rob took some liberties.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:31:36 PM] <DesertRose> Ah, okay.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:31:38 PM] <jemler> it's kind of hard to do breathing exercisesm when your wife is strangling you.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:32:31 PM] <Evie> I have evidently become the sleeping place for kittehs
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:32:41 PM] <cynicalmedic> I almost had my hand broken by a patient having contractions - she had a death grip on my hand
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:32:52 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12ouch
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:32:59 PM] <DesertRose> Yikes, cynicalmedic.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:33:04 PM] <Shiral> For both you and the patient!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:33:08 PM] <the_Bee> KK, are you ever going to reveal how Morgan and Duncan are descended from Rhys and Evaine?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:33:21 PM] <KK> Don't know.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:33:22 PM] <jemler> my neice had a baby boy thu before last.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:33:36 PM] * Shiral is trying to contain my impatience to read about Brion and Jehana meeting for the first time....
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:34:08 PM] <jemler> not working shiral. i sense a disturbance in the Force! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:34:19 PM] <Shiral> I didn't SAY it was working! =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:34:24 PM] <the_Bee> My guess is they're Jerusha's descendants.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:34:46 PM] <Evie> LOL! DH had a college friend whose wife was expecting a daughter...they had a name picked out for her before the wife went into labor. A few weeks later, DH's friend tells him about his new daughter, Tessa. "But that wasn't the name you told me before she was born, was it?" DH asked him. "No, but when my wife gave my arm a death grip and bellowed, 'HER NAME IS TESSA!', who was I to argue at that moment?"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:35:05 PM] <Shiral> Wise man!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:35:20 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12very smart man
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:35:41 PM] <jemler> have they already married the kid off? Tessa is Asst backwards!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:35:50 PM] <jemler> Asset, sorry
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:35:52 PM] <jojo> lol

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:37:28 PM] <jemler> lol
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:38:02 PM] <Shiral> Before I was so rudely interupted by technology, I was saying I hope that Kelson will still name his first son Javan
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:38:30 PM] <Shiral> In whatever order the kid or kids appear
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:38:58 PM] <Alkari> Yes. Though I wasn't quite as enthusiastic about the daughters' names in the Codex ....:(
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:38:59 PM] <KK> It's a good name.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:39:20 PM] <Shiral> I've always thought Annalind was a nice girl's name.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:39:33 PM] <the_Bee> yes
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:39:34 PM] <Evie> I could imagine Araxandra as a variation on Araxie, but wasn't so sure about Rhuys.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:39:46 PM] <Shiral> A nod to Meara which would please Mearans.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:39:52 PM] <Evie> how would one say that, anyway? Rhymes with Louise?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:04 PM] <Shiral> Rhuys doesn't sound very feminine, to me
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:06 PM] <Alkari> Roo - Iss?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:33 PM] <Evie> Possibly, Alkari, though it had some accent mark above the y, IIRC
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:37 PM] <Shiral> He might give one of his future daughters the name Sidana
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:41 PM] <Evie> the little "vampire fang marks"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:40:49 PM] <jemler> Javan means 'Youth' in Arabic
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:14 PM] <KK> Little vampire fang marks?! Where did <tht> come from?!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:14 PM] <DesertRose> I don't know if Araxie would go for naming a daughter Sidana.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:23 PM] <Evie> If he gives a daughter the name Sidana, he's going to insist on walking her to the wedding altar himself!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:40 PM] <Evie> LOL! Whatever the name is for the two dots over some accented letters, KK
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:42 PM] <Shiral> It might be one of the girl's middle names
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:46 PM] <DesertRose> umlaut
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:49 PM] <cynicalmedic> umlaut
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:51 PM] <jemler> Rhys is Welsh for 'Running'
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:52 PM] <KK> umlaut?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:41:55 PM] <Evie> I couldn't recall what they're called, so I called them "vampire fang marks"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:00 PM] <Evie> yeah, that sounds right
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:09 PM] <jemler> and keeping her brothers away!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:15 PM] <KK> It describes them all right. Tee-hee.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:17 PM] <Shiral> Here's the Princess...Umlaut. "Nope, call her Sidana instead!"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:23 PM] <the_Bee> I thought Rhys meant "aredne".
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:24 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:29 PM] <the_Bee> ardent
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:42 PM] <jemler> not according to Babynames.com
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:48 PM] <KK> Kelson might use Sidana as one of a daughter's many names.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:49 PM] <Alkari> Somehow, I am not sure that Kelson would use Sidana
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:53 PM] <Evie> Thank God you translated that, Bee. I thought you were going to say "a redneck"! ;)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:42:55 PM] <Alkari> as a name
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:43:07 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12maybe not
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:43:29 PM] <Shiral> He probably WON'T use the names Charissa, Morag or Caitrin. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:43:29 PM] <Evie> No, he certainly wouldn't use Sidana now, Alkari. She's quite dead, and Kelson's not into that sort of thing. Oh, you mean as a name! Never mind....
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:43:32 PM] <the_Bee> running, ardent, excitable....
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:43:42 PM] <DesertRose> Well, it's already part of Eirian's name.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:44:21 PM] <Evie> Meraude would have had time to grow attached to the poor little Mearan princess, so I can see that.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:44:31 PM] <jemler> did you know thar Rhun is pronounced 'hreen'?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:44:34 PM] <Shiral> Yes, I could understand that, too
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:44:44 PM] <DesertRose> Eirian is Eirian Elspeth Sidana.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:12 PM] <Evie> Let's hope she doesn't have monogrammed towels, then. EESH. :D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:13 PM] <jemler> the kids initials are EESH?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:20 PM] <DesertRose> Evidently.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:35 PM] <jemler> KCRAH
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:37 PM] <Shiral> Would she have HAD towels? =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:43 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:45:46 PM] <Alkari> They didn't go for lengthy monograms obviously!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:46:11 PM] <Evie> That's like my goddaughter, who complained she couldn't go out and get a monogrammed sweater if they came back into style because the initials on her chest would either spell BAR or BRA.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:46:16 PM] <Shiral> Anyhow if she's betrothed to Liam in the canonical sense, her last name would become Furstana
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:46:24 PM] <Evie> Towels, yes. Monograms, no
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:47:05 PM] <Shiral> She might have had Nigel's differenced arms on a lozenge
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:47:14 PM] <Shiral> To show she was his daughter
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:47:22 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:47:45 PM] <KK> I think monograms are a mostly Victorian practice, aren't they?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:13 PM] <Evie> I think so
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:13 PM] <Shiral> They're more modern than the 12thc century, I think
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:16 PM] <KK> A first initial with a coronet above, perhaps, but that's a bit different from a monogrm.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:28 PM] <the_Bee> My mom had my gym suits monogrammedin junior hight,
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:38 PM] <Shiral> So Araxie would have an A with a coronet?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:48:53 PM] <KK> Speaking of arms, Evie, Scott says that your cross was used by Mary Queen of Scots in many of her embrioderies. Period enough for you?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:14 PM] <KK> Yes, A with coronet.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:19 PM] Quit Mayacamas has left this server (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:24 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12as long as the A was not scarlet
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:37 PM] <Evie> Period enough for me, but not for the anal-retentive SCA heralds. Can't just have been used in decorative art; I need to document it in heraldry pre-1600.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:38 PM] <jemler> Charissa = Grace in GReek
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:47 PM] <DesertRose> Mibbit's being stupid today , I see.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:49:48 PM] <KK> THey were called ciphers. Henry VIII used an H on his retainers' livery.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:50:03 PM] <Shiral> If Araxie were to commit adultery, she'd have much worse problems than a scarlet letter!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:50:25 PM] <Evie> "It's not scarlet, dear, it's crimson! Really!"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:50:28 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:50:39 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12subtle difference
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:51:12 PM] <Shiral> I think she's probably mature enough to realize this. Anyway, she's got a nice, young royal hunk for a husband. She has no need to look elsewhere. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:05 PM] <Evie> Yes, and now that Kelson's FINALLY married off, now Letald's heir has a chance with the ladies!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:12 PM] <KK> Besides that, she was bred to her duty, like Alyce.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:24 PM] <DesertRose> Unlike a lot of princesses, she actually got a good deal. :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:35 PM] <KK> Yep.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:41 PM] <Alkari> Yes. "Bred to do her duty" - sounds like a racehorse
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:50 PM] <Evie> I suspect she's not going to find her duty all that onerous.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:53 PM] <Shiral> So) Richelle is in Meara... Wonder if she might have a few "issues" about this? =o
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:55 PM] <jemler> ii don't know. Janiver got a pretty good deal.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:56 PM] <Shiral> =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:52:59 PM] <the_Bee> produce an heir and a spare.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:53:04 PM] <DesertRose> Probably not, Kelson is a good egg.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:53:31 PM] <Shiral> Fortunately Araxie doesn't have to fear brutal or boorish treatment from Kelson
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:53:42 PM] <DesertRose> Janniver got to marry for love in the end, but she had a hell of a ride to get there.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:53:51 PM] <jemler> Colman has got some lonely nights in store for him! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:06 PM] <Shiral> Janniver got a much better deal with a nice Baron instead of Nasty Old King Colman
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:07 PM] <cynicalmedic> Deservedly so
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:31 PM] <Evie> and one who actually adores her
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:39 PM] Join Jerusha has joined this channel (Mibbit@OWIRCN-9e53f447.mco.bellsouth.net).
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:44 PM] <Evie> hi, Jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:44 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12very much adores her
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:44 PM] <jemler> hi jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:47 PM] <DesertRose> Hi Jerusha.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:49 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hi jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:49 PM] <the_Bee> hi jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:52 PM] <cynicalmedic> hi Jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:54 PM] <Shiral> Exactly. So.... Would Janniver serve Araxie as a Lady in Waiting?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:54:57 PM] <Shiral> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:08 PM] <jojo> hi Jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:12 PM] <Jerusha> Hi Everyone! *waves and offers chocolate fudge*
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:21 PM] <DesertRose> If Araxie asked her to, why not?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:26 PM] <KK> She might. Hi, Jerusha.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:33 PM] <Alkari> Though Janniver might be off having her own babies
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:43 PM] <Alkari> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:55:58 PM] <Shiral> That might be the case of a lot of the ladies of Araxie's generation
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:56:48 PM] <Alkari> According to the Codex, there was a big baby boom in Gwynedd thge year or so after Kelson's marriage ;)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:57:11 PM] <DesertRose> Celebrating for Kelson and Araxie?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:57:37 PM] * jemler shuts up!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:57:42 PM] <Shiral> So lots of high-born young mothers having sewing circles and trading tips on baby raising and finding a good nurse. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:07 PM] <KK> Yup. Great domesticity.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:19 PM] <Alkari> And Peace in the Kingdom.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:27 PM] <the_Bee> Meraude breast-fed her daughter eirian.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:28 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12peace is good
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:31 PM] <Jerusha> Imagine the enticing young ladies twelve years hence
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:58:37 PM] <Shiral> Until all the babies wake up from their naps at once!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:59:37 PM] <Shiral> "Er.... I have to go on a diplomatic mission down to the Ile d'Orsal!"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:59:46 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:59:49 PM] <Alkari> Deryni soundproffing
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [07:59:55 PM] <Alkari> *proofing
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:00:38 PM] <Jerusha> portals can be very convenient
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:00:52 PM] <Shiral> So can thick castle walls!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:00:54 PM] Quit jojo has left this server (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:01 PM] <KK> Yes, it would be a good excuse to go off on a quest or something.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:05 PM] <Evie> Maybe that's when Alaric finally gets around to building his Transfer Portal...the week after his first night with a colicky infant!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:34 PM] <Jerusha> Or he locks himself in the Green Tower
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:38 PM] <Shiral> So how is he going to get any peace if Kelson ALSO has colicky infants? =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:49 PM] <Evie> They both go hunting. ;-)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:01:57 PM] <jemler> judging from Conalls behaviour, she breast fed him till he was 8 or 9!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:02:00 PM] <Jerusha> The Quest for Peace
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:02:02 PM] <Shiral> ....in Torenth!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:02:35 PM] <Shiral> "Dhugal, I think we should make sure all is well... up in Uiskin!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:02:53 PM] <Shiral> Nice and far from EVERYTHING.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:03:16 PM] <Alkari> Or: Kelson - sailing isn't really that terrible. Let's take a nice long sea voyage
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:03:50 PM] <Evie> I keep forgetting I still need to hem this gown.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:03:52 PM] <Shiral> "Yes, let's travel to Laas by boat...
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:04:26 PM] <Evie> Or maybe Byzantyun
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:04:40 PM] <Jerusha> Or walk...
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:05:07 PM] <the_Bee> So, KK, how is the writing progressing?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:05:25 PM] <jemler> follow the yellow brick road to china, or is the the yalu brick road?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:05:29 PM] <Shiral> No, they'd just take the really slow horses. Kings have to look Royal, after all...
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:06:10 PM] <KK> It's giong OK. I'm just winding up the festivities at Letald's investiture.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:06:29 PM] <Jerusha> Was Alaric impressed?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:06:44 PM] <KK> Yes.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:06:46 PM] <Evie> have you decided yet what scene or chapter you'll be reading at the con?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:07:20 PM] <KK> Possibly the scene at Nyford, where he encounters de Nore. Kenneth is stil alive at that point.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:07:40 PM] <Evie> cool. I like Kenneth.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:07:52 PM] <Jerusha> Scary encounter?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:08:38 PM] <Alkari> Poor Alaric - it doesn't sound good :(
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:08:39 PM] <KK> Dreadful encounter. THe experience scars Alaric for years.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:15 PM] <Shiral> Eek!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:15 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12De Nore scares everyone
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:21 PM] <Evie> :-(
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:24 PM] <Shiral> Well, nasty Archbishops aren't fun
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:26 PM] <Jerusha> Ouch. Wish I could be at Dragoncon to hear it
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:28 PM] <DesertRose> Well, de Nore is awful. I can't say as I blame Alaric.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:30 PM] <anlarye> de Nore needs to be mind-ripped
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:33 PM] <Alkari> I can only imagine what that did, plus having to watch Jorian get burned at the stake
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:43 PM] <jemler> need a mind to be ripped
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:47 PM] <cynicalmedic> DeNore needs to be flayed
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:09:58 PM] <Alkari> Alaric went through some awful stuff when he was young
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:10:00 PM] <Jerusha> All of the above
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:10:04 PM] * Shiral wonders if the first encounter with DeNore also involves a burning
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:10:27 PM] <jemler> is someone going to record the reading?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:10:41 PM] <jemler> i'd like to see a video
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:10:48 PM] <Shiral> We may just have to bribe Evie for information. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:11 PM] <Jerusha> A copy of the Furstana emeralds for "little" Richenda?
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:17 PM] <Evie> I would offer, but I've yet to figure out how to get video from my camera to the Internet in any sort of shareable form.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:22 PM] <KK> I don't usually allow recordings at readings.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:33 PM] <Evie> And there would be that, too. :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:38 PM] <DesertRose> Well, that answers that question.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:41 PM] <Jerusha> Fair enough
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:50 PM] <Alkari> Can you provide us a copy for the site KK? Pretty please? :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:11:55 PM] <Jerusha> I'll wait for the book
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:27 PM] <jemler> just a thought
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:36 PM] <cynicalmedic> Gives us all something to wait for...impatiently
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:38 PM] <Shiral> Here, Evie, have some steamed chocolate pudding... And THEN what did Alaric say?"
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:43 PM] <Evie> LOL
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:44 PM] <DesertRose> Well, then we'll just have to bribe Evie for information. :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:12:45 PM] <jemler> now i got to wait for the next one! :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:14 PM] <Shiral> Buy her a lot of dolls with articulated joints. =o)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:21 PM] <Evie> You all need to recognize that I have a mind like a steel trap... a rusted one that is permanently sealed shut when it comes to memory retrieval. ;-)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:29 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:37 PM] <Alkari> Find someone who takes good ol' fashioned shorthand!
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:38 PM] <Shiral> Or small quantities of luxurious fabrics
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:13:57 PM] <KK> She can tell you about it; I've read it at Darkover. But I'd rather there was no transcript of the actual passage, as it could change between now and publication.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:14:13 PM] <Evie> Seriously, I'm one of those people who remembers what happens in a scene overall, but not necessarily all the details of who said what or did what until I've seen or read the scene multiple times.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:14:23 PM] <Alkari> Yes, same here
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:14:45 PM] <Shiral> Even if we use Deryni methods of memory enhancements? =o)'
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:15 PM] <Evie> However, attempted to bribe me with small articulated bits of human shaped plastic would not be refused out of hand. ;-)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:39 PM] <DesertRose> :P
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:42 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:44 PM] <Jerusha> That sounds slightly disturbing
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:45 PM] <Evie> attempts, even. Hard to type when the screen is blocked by a rather opaque cat
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:15:58 PM] <DesertRose> I've never met a non-opaque cat.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:12 PM] <Shiral> Pussycats do tend to be opaque
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:15 PM] <anlarye> you can type with the screen blocked, just can read what someone puts on it ...
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:21 PM] <KK> Yike! It's after 8. GOtta go. Once Upon a TIme is back.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:32 PM] <Evie> He seems even more opaque when between me and what I'm attempting to read. Which happens with disturbing frequency, this being Luke.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:33 PM] <anlarye> night KK :)
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:35 PM] <Jerusha> I thought this was a repeat

[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:38 PM] <the_Bee> ? I thought it was a rerun.
[Sunday, August 26, 2012] [08:16:41 PM] <DesertRose> Okay, see you later, KK. Have a good time at DragonCon and we'll see you when you get back.

"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.)
