back for the funeral.
[17:07] * Rae has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:07] <DeryniBot> Hail and Well met Rae

[17:08] <jp> Rae, hi
[17:08] <Rae> Hi Mistyck
[17:08] <Jessie> Hello, Rae
[17:08] <kirienne> hi rae
[17:08] <Rae> Hi Everybody, good to see you
[17:08] <KK> This was the guy who was the city architect for Dublin,
mentioned in the gargoyle book, who has the front of the Abbey Theatre
in his garden, in bits.
[17:08] <RainbowDragon> Hi, Rae
[17:08] <Jessie> :-( indeed Katherine
[17:08] <Mistyck> well, at least you have him immortalized
[17:09] <Wrengl> hi rae
[17:09] <Mistyck> and he lived to see you publish the book
[17:09] <KK> Oh, he's immortalized by his buildings already.  The
shrine at Knock is his work.
[17:09] <Mistyck> cool!
[17:09] <Mistyck> he sounds like he was a great guy
[17:09] <KK> A true gentleman.  He'll be missed.
[17:10] <the_Bee> does the Knock shrine have a gargoyle?
[17:10] <Mistyck> I can imagine...
[17:10] <Wrengl> sounds like an interesting person
[17:10] <KK> No, it's modern.
[17:10] <Rae> brb
[17:10] * Rae Quit (Quit: Leaving)
[17:10] <KK> But he did the two gargoyle rainspouts mentioned in the
book--true, functioning gargoyles.
[17:10] <Mistyck> neat!
[17:11] <jm> very neat
[17:11] <VirtualBabe> We do have a couple gargoyles here in Vancouver,
but I've not heard if they are alive like yours are
[17:11] <Kryss> be back in a minute
[17:11] <kirienne> LOL Debbie
[17:11] <jp> Modern Gargoyles! now there's a thought.
[17:11] <KK> Well, they wouldn't let anyone know, would they?  ;-)
[17:11] <VirtualBabe> true, true
[17:11] * Andy_Hock has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[17:11] <DeryniBot> Welcome to #Deryni_Destinations Andy_Hock

[17:12] <Wrengl> howdy even
[17:12] <KK> Ever seen the ones on the National Cathedral in D.C.?
There's a Darth Vader one, and an astromaut, and a TV camera man....

[17:12] <kirienne> cool
[17:12] <KK> Rented fingers....
[17:12] <Wrengl> yup
[17:12] * Mistyck thinks if you have a sudden urge to do a SPG sequel,
we'll know where the inspiration came from
[17:12] <Wrengl> from Vader Enterprises
[17:12] <KK> True.
[17:12] <VirtualBabe> ?me giggles @ the Darth Vader Gargoyle
[17:12] <kirienne> if I am ever lucky enough to travel there, I want
photos of those gargoyles
[17:13] <KK> There's probably a website, maybe with photos of some of
them.  I know there's a book available.
[17:13] <Samuel> hmmmm.......  that would be scary........  a LIVING
Darth Vader Gargoyle.
[17:13] <VirtualBabe> but gargoyles are good...
[17:13] <jp> with an angel inside
[17:13] <Wrengl> lol jp
[17:13] <jm> must be of him after he turned back from the dark side
[17:14] <KK> True enough.
[17:14] <kirienne> sam, but it would be quite effective in keeping
salesmen away from the door
[17:14] <Kryss> ...i just watched that movie..like two minutes ago
before i came in here
[17:14] * jp there is good inside of him, i can feel it"
[17:14] <Kryss> weird

[17:16] <Samuel> knowing how to work yahoo.com's search engine is a
nice thing.
[17:16] <kirienne> from little hint, I think she meant the Deryni
project she is working on
[17:16] <Wrengl> she said she will be at CastleCon next weekend,
however
[17:16] * Harvey_away is now known as Harvey
[17:16] <KK> Yep, I know she's nose-to-grindstone on that.
