KK Chat - June 7, 2001

*** JastaElf is now known as KK
<Rebecca> Katherine how was the flight?
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o KK
<@Shiral> Hi Katherine
<Kelos_al-Hazar> She'll have to identify to nickserv, tho...
<Jessie> hello Katherine & I hope you had a pleasant and relaxing flight
<@Shiral> Did Jasta let you eat any dinner before plonking you in front of the computer? <G>
<@KK> Hello, all.
<@Bynw_Gaming> Hiyas KK
<@KK> Yes, I got dinner. She even bought!
<@Shiral> Hooray.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Ah...Quite civilised of her...
<@KK> I also bought a notebook computer on a smoking good sale.
<@Shiral> Hey, better and better!
<auntiedi_lurking> hi jasta and kk.
<Rebecca> ohhh.... Lucky you. Dinner and shopping
<@Bynw_Gaming> using Sharon's computer there I see
<auntiedi_lurking> gee jasta, didn't see you at the office depot in RESTON. lol
<@KK> Yep, it's a Compaq Presario.
<@Shiral> Good, Alaric would have felt much too cramped in a palm pilot!
<@KK> We were at the one near Maryfield.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> A Presario laptop?
<@KK> 15% off
<auntiedi_lurking> i haven't been to that one. good sale.
<Rebecca> lots of memory and Harddrive space?
<@KK> Yep--notebook.
<@Shiral> Cool, you were obviously meant to have it, KK
* Bynw_Gaming misses his notebook computer
<auntiedi_lurking> how was the flight kk?
<@KK> gb
<Wrengl> Hi Katherine, Jasta
<@KK> Flight was fine. Continental is a very good airline.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> A six Gb HDD is pretty useful for a laptop...
<@KK> Hi, retired (almost) Wrengl.
<@Shiral> Good, good. =o)
<auntiedi_lurking> glad to hear it.
<@KK> It will be great for what I need it to do.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Which is allow you to continue writing?
<@KK> That's it.
<@Shiral> To write will on the road, too. <G>
<@KK> Now I can write on the fly.
<@Shiral> Katherine Kerouac
<@KK> (Of course, there isn't much room on a fly.)
<Kelos_al-Hazar> You'll likely see me with a notebook comp at Darkover; my mom's determined to help me write... Heh.
<@Shiral> Oh BAD! Very bad!
<auntiedi_lurking> KK, dare I ask if the Adept had any outlining done during the flight? my mother won't stop asking.
<Jessie> lol auntie
<@Bynw_Gaming> yeah... I finished book 5 several days ago
<Rebecca> Oh I had mine with me last Darkover. Of course it was there so we could chat with Laura in Germany...
<auntiedi_lurking> i'm not kidding, she's been in here 3 times tonite, reminding me to ask
<@Shiral> Which we did for two hours
<@KK> No, I was taking notes on Edward Bruce.
<auntiedi_lurking> ok, thanks
<Kelos_al-Hazar> I'm not too crazy about the undersized keyboards notebook machines have, tho. I don't type well on undersized, short-throw keyboards. :<
<@KK> This will be for The Temple and the Ark.
<@KK> The Presario has a pretty good keyboard.
<@Shiral> Always important for when the inspiration strikes
<@KK> I was looking at a Toshiba, but it was awful. And it had this dorky little button in the middle of the keyboard instead of a touch pad.
<Wrengl> Indeed it is.
<auntiedi_lurking> yuck
<Rebecca> Edward Bruce--he's the one who became King of Ireland for a short time?
<@KK> Yep.
<Jessie> Katherine: a question when Festil invaded Gwynedd & killed King Ifor and his family -- did the Michaelines take a position of : pro Festil, pro Haldane, or remain neutral?
<@KK> Probably remained neutral.
<Jessie> thank you
<@Shiral> Grist for the mill I take it, Jessie. <G>
<Jessie> when Imre says that he can't truth read the captured Michaeline Humphrey -- does that mean that the Michaelines could block truthreading?
<@KK> It means that he can't read that Michaeline.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> And that would seem to indicate that Humphrey was shielded in some way, correct?
<@KK> That would be a fair assumption.
*** auntiedi_lurking is now known as auntiedi
<Jessie> So deryni can therefore shield from truthreading -- or was that a Michaeline specific knowledge?
*** Bynw_Gaming is now known as Bynw
<Jessie> that should read: deryni can therefore shield from truthreading -- or was that a Michaeline specific knowledge?
<@KK> I think that shields can be put on some Deryni to prevent them from being Truth-Read.
<Jessie> thank you Katherine
<@KK> However, keep in mind that what keeps thing out can also keep things in.
<@KK> Hi, Bywn.
<@Shiral> Hi Bynw
<@KK> Bynw, too.
<@Shiral> All of you. <G>
<@Bynw> :-)
<@Shiral> I'm seeing signs of life in my living room, now
*** Joins: JastaElf
<@Shiral> FLat Duck weather, here
<JastaElf> Hi folks :-)
<@KK> Bynw, you should know that Jasta and I are going to consult about vestments for a certain day.
<@Shiral> Hi Jasta
<Jessie> Katherine: is there a source that you would recommend for explaining the "jobs" of the various people: Vicar General, etc. etc. of the Michaelines
<JastaElf> Helps to have two phone lines and two computers...
<@KK> Flat Duck weather?!
<@Bynw> cool :-)
<@Shiral> Well, one would expect him to be a bit flat... He just arrived from Sydney this morning!
<@KK> Oh, <that> flat Duck!
<JastaElf> flat duck weather? Does that mean pressed duck for dinner? :-)
<@Shiral> Don't any of you tip off Rob, though. He doesn't know Donald's here.
<@Shiral> fish fres fro,m the pacific, hi guys
<Rebecca> I don't think there'd be time to anyway.
<@Shiral> A message from His Mallardness
<JastaElf> There must be a book somewhere, Jessie, that describes such things...
<@KK> If he should come into the chat room, your cover is blown, Duck.
<auntiedi> that musta been a bit of a hike.
<JastaElf> maybe a book about the history of the Jesuits?
<Rebecca> no, of the Knights Templar!
<@Shiral> Rob is getting ready for his trip, so I doubt he'll come to the chatroom tonight
<@KK> The Michaeline officers are conglomerated from various sources.
<JastaElf> Oh, good point, Rebecca
* Kelos_al-Hazar will brb...after he goes to get some tea
<JastaElf> What is Rob's ID?
<@Shiral> I don't know, He's never come to the chatroom period!
<JastaElf> Is that like the Medieval period? :-)
<@Shiral> Yes, O evil one
<JastaElf> Ooops, she blew my cover... :-)
<auntiedi> lol
<@KK> Tee-hee.
<@Shiral> Sorry....Geez, I didn't know it was a secret!
<JastaElf> Well, it sure ain't secret here. Not after gardening gloves... :-)
<@Shiral> Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck!
* JastaElf reaches for her garden gloves, and grins....
<@KK> A, gardening gloves....
<@Shiral> BRB,
<@Shiral> GOtta go feed the duck
<JastaElf> Oooo, we got quiet all of a sudden. :-)
<JastaElf> Does he get scraps of bread? :-)
* Kelos_al-Hazar is back... and probably bad, too... but will stay silent on the latter.
<JastaElf> So, does anyone know of a good Templar history Jessie could use?
<JastaElf> LOL, Kelos... :-)
<Wrengl> Hi Duck
<@Shiral> it is like that awkaward silence that occurs after someone has farted
<@KK> Try Born in Blood, by Robindon.
<JastaElf> LOL!!! :-)
<Jessie> thank you
<@KK> Roinson, John.
<JastaElf> Born in Blood. Ooo, neat title....
<@Shiral> hi there pat
<@KK> Robinson, John.
* Kelos_al-Hazar resumes work on his story...well...sorta.
* JastaElf perks up and grins at Kelos....
<Jessie> thank you -- have read a couple of others -- but they didn't give much on the internal structure of the Templars
<@KK> Wrengl, how is our favorite canine friend?
<Wrengl> Seems to be improving. Still not standing but trying to do it.
<@KK> As long as he keeps trying...
<Kelos_al-Hazar> (I'm a bit distracted, naturally, since KK's in the chatroom...but that's to be expected, aye?
<Wrengl> He's supposed to attend a wedding in July but cannot if he is not at least standing.
<@KK> Jessie, there's a book on the Rule of the Templars. Check the biblio at the back of either Templar anthology.
<JastaElf> Ah yes, the Bambi Nuptials...
<auntiedi> wrengl, maybe you need to put his tux out where he can see it, incentive.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> OOooh! Powerful incentive, even for a canine!
<Wrengl> He's never been invited to a wedding before.
<Wrengl> He KNOWS where his tux is. He has plenty of incentive.
<@Shiral> but just out of reach so he has to stretch "I can almost reach the Grail mum!'
<Wrengl> I do that with his dinner bowl some nights.
<@KK> The Bambi nuptials are early July, aren't they?
<JastaElf> Thumps' version of a Hitch-hiker's towel: He always knows where his tux is.
<JastaElf> Yes, they are.
<Wrengl> Yes.
<JastaElf> 1st Saturday
<@KK> Is she going crazy?
<auntiedi> does he have any physical therapy exercises?
<JastaElf> Is the Pope Catholic?? ;-)
<auntiedi> i always wondered.:-)
<@Shiral> er well ...
<JastaElf> <snrt!>
<Wrengl> Sniggle.
<@KK> Do you know if she's doing that cross-stitch pattern I sent her?
<JastaElf> Is Jehana Deryni?? :-)
<auntiedi> nice second effort jasta. :-)
<JastaElf> Haven't talked to her about anything BUT the wedding.
<JastaElf> thanks, auntie.
<auntiedi> anytime
<@Shiral> she's not deryni, she's just a naughty girl
<Wrengl> I have not had time to try exercising his rear legs much and we do not have a pool for him to swim in.
<@Shiral> That was the DUCK speaking, Not me!
<JastaElf> Uh-oh, time for the Meara Report... ;-)
<auntiedi> a posting from the mearan free press?
<@Shiral> help help i'm being posssessed by an evil australian
<auntiedi> lol
<@Shiral> that paragon of newsworthiness - the mearan sunday herald?
<JastaElf> "If Shiral weighs the same as a Duck..."
<Wrengl> 's not an EVIL Aussie .
<auntiedi> she's a witch!!!!!!!!!!
<JastaElf> That's not what we say about it here in Carthmoor, Duckie...
*** Joins: hygilac 
<Jessie> witches float
<JastaElf> Linda!! Hi!
<auntiedi> hygilac, long time no chat!!
<Wrengl> Hi Linda
<@KK> Hi-ho, Linda.
<auntiedi> (she turned me into a newt)
<Jessie> a newt?
<JastaElf> (got better....)
<auntiedi> thanks jasta.
<Rebecca> Hello Linda!
<JastaElf> :-)
<@Shiral> yes but the carthmoor carrion newspaper is just a load of nigel haldane propaganda and WE are le cannard
<@Shiral> Hi LInda!
<JastaElf> That's CLARION, you silly English kniggit! :-)
<Jessie> hello hygilac
<@Shiral> I didn't turn ANYBODY into a newt!
<auntiedi> or maybe you're just foie gras.
<Wrengl> Publishing the truth, the whole truth and only the unhaldane truth.
<JastaElf> Shiral is channeling Duck tonight, Linda... :-)
<hygilac> I see you made it safe and sound, KK
<JastaElf> Oh no, he's infected Wrengl!! :-)
<Rebecca> LInda the trick is to figure out when it's Donald talking and when it's Melissa
<@Shiral> clarion? ha, carrion is better hanging around the corpses of news stories flogging them to death like a dead horse
<JastaElf> LOL!
<Wrengl> LOL
<hygilac> there's a difference?
<Wrengl> Unfortunately I never needed to be invected with Ducktitis
<Wrengl> infected not invected
<auntiedi> (saw that without the i before the s)
<@KK> I'm confused. Where is the Duck?
* Shiral says "there was a tremendous tussle for control of the Keyboard, But I managed to knock him out at last..."
<JastaElf> Well, he HAS been known to use invective....
<@Shiral> In my bedroom, as of this moment. <G>
<@KK> Is Shiral in SF again?
<Wrengl> In California
<JastaElf> Just so long as he isn't a dead duck, Shiral....
<@Shiral> Science Fiction, Or San Francisco, KK?
<Wrengl> Sounds like a pretty lively duck to me.
<@KK> The latter.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> KK...I know this is gonna sound a bit weird...but is this spelled correctly? "Infirmarian" <meaning: Head of the Infirmary)
<@Shiral> most;y dead but slightly alive
<@KK> Yes, Kelos.
<JastaElf> Duck lag...
<Wrengl> Understandable
<@Shiral> We're sharing a keyboard in Mountain view. Wait....Is everyone in here over 21?
<hygilac> indeed
<JastaElf> Ummm, I think so.
<hygilac> what brings the Duck to the nether shore?
<auntiedi> unfortunately, i am.
<Wrengl> Think so.
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Ahh...Thank you! It wasn't in Word2000's dictionary...Adding it now.
<@KK> OK. Jet lag was confusing me.
<@Shiral> i desperate;y needed a holiday and besides the idea of surprising rob and carolyn et al was too good a chance to pass up
<JastaElf> :>cool!
<Kelos_al-Hazar> I am 38...so yes... > 21...
<Wrengl> A great surprise for all of them.
<hygilac> and all of us!
<@Shiral> when i get home i have to do about 3 months in the desert with no breaks so a holiday is a really useful thing
<@KK> How many are you expecting for the party?
<hygilac> Better than nude rock climbing, too
* Kelos_al-Hazar has wished quite often he could visit the Left Coast... but it hasn't happened yet.
* JastaElf will turn on October 1... for the 24th time.... ;-)
<@Shiral> Ummmmm, not exactly sure, right now
<Jessie> lol
<@Shiral> Over ten, though I believe <G>
<Wrengl> Everyone who can make it.
<@Shiral> I plan to tell Carolyn I found the duck at the local pool hall
<Jessie> well Kelos: face south -- and then you will be on the left coast
<JastaElf> LOL, Jessie! :-)
<hygilac> heh heh, Shiral
<Wrengl> Very good jessie
<@Shiral> Good one, Jessie
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Left Coast is another name for the West Coast...Heheh.
<Jessie> in Missouri -- doesn't matter -- facing north or south -- still in the middle
<@Shiral> We know. <EG>
<auntiedi> good point
<Wrengl> Very true, Jessie
<Wrengl> Haven't been on the West coast since before they deregulated the airline industry.
<hygilac> IIs it raining on everyone else too?
<@Shiral> nope, not out here!
<Wrengl> Nope. Bight sunny day here today.
<@KK> Not raining in DC.
* Kelos_al-Hazar rather has a surprise coming up a bit later in his story...for those who aren't helping me by assisting me with editing...
<Wrengl> Here being New York City
<hygilac> I spent a soggy week in Ohio and came home to rain today
<auntiedi> wrengl, i saw two great price quotes for flights out west today, $and $each way, but that's from here. thru midway
<JastaElf> We had a lovely day in No. Virginia...
<@Shiral> it was cloudy in la and pissing it down in perth
<Rebecca> Nope. It's supposed to be sunny through the weekend.
<auntiedi> jasta, where were you this morning when it was pouring?
<JastaElf> In the office, WAY too early. ;-)
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Soggy here in Alabama...but it was degrees at 11am, too...so I suspect the heat tripped some showers.
<Wrengl> Next year I may go to ConJose but do not know as yet.
<JastaElf> But I did drive in the rain.
<auntiedi> ah, cause i had me a wet pooch this morning
<JastaElf> Once the rain burned off, tho, it was gorgeous.
<auntiedi> i missed the gorgeous, i was sleeping. :-)
<JastaElf> I settled for toast and tea, auntie. :-)
<Rebecca> yep
<auntiedi> :-)
<hygilac> How go the plans for the 16th, folks?
<@KK> in Alabama? Kelos, yuck!
<@Shiral> So how's the weather in Carthmoor, Jasta?
<auntiedi> i haven't heard anything much more lately.
<JastaElf> Simply marvelous. :>Makes me want to visit the Manor. :-)
<@Shiral> earthquakes and hurricanes
<Wrengl> Bet it does
<JastaElf> And trim roses. :-)
<@Shiral> don't forget the gloves.
<Wrengl> LOL
<JastaElf> Oh, don't worry, I won't! :-)
<Rebecca> So far so good Linda. I'm calling the restaurant tomorrow for reservations
<hygilac> with or without bloves?
<@Shiral> Just persuade the kids to sleep in. <EG>
<Wrengl> Although Meraude might have something to say to you about that, Jasta
<JastaElf> and the squires and ladies... :-)
<JastaElf> We'll arm wrestle for him. ;-)
<@Shiral> Heck give 'em all a sleeping draught the night before!
<JastaElf> She's little, I can take her. LOL!
<Wrengl> <G>
<auntiedi> lol
<Kelos_al-Hazar> KK: An abbot would typically be called what, by someone not in that Abbot's Order?
<@KK> Father Abbot.
<JastaElf> Why, Costello, of course! :-)
<@Shiral> She's little, but spunky!
<Jessie> lol Jasta
<@Shiral> LOL, Jasta!
<auntiedi> thank you jasta,

<JastaElf> my plan is working... :-)
*** Joins: Chris

<@Shiral> Yes, proceed to the next step
<hygilac> ooh, that's wprrisome
<JastaElf> Not to worry -- I have a copy of the Evil Overlord's List.
<JastaElf> I will make no mistakes. ;-)
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Greetings, Chris.
<Chris> cool it works nicely
* Chris is Bynw
<@Shiral> So say they all, but everybody messes up now and then!
<JastaElf> What does, Chris?
<Chris> I modified the chat page on www.deryni.net
* JastaElf grins at Shiral: "Not THIS little overlord!"
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Ahhh. ok.
<hygilac> Bynw is beside himself over somethihg

<@Shiral> Godcorg....Is he delusional, now?
<auntiedi> (jasta, did we put kk to sleep?)
<Wrengl> So youse all better be on your best behavior.
<JastaElf> Nah, not delusional -- Thumps KNOWS who He is. :-)
<@Shiral> Or is she laughing too hard to type!
<JastaElf> I think she's probably stunned. :-)
<Wrengl> Or Is gonna get the rest of da famly after youse.
<@KK> No, she's scritching a cat--Kidlet by name.
<@Shiral> saintthumper preserve us from evil
<JastaElf> If I hadn't nailed her to the perch, she'd be on the floor laughing... :-)
<@Shiral> Gracious, sounds painful!
<Jessie> the cat or Katherine?
<JastaElf> Kidlet, for those of you who remember that night, is the one who sat on the keyboard while I was away...
<@Shiral> LOL, Jessie!
<JastaElf> and sent coded messages to his mionions...
<Wrengl> Not saintthumper but Thumper of the Corg Family, party of the Kitty Mafia
<hygilac> you're using perch now instead of trout?
<auntiedi> i woulda gone with something less painful, like duck tape.
<JastaElf> Don Corg-leone!
<@KK> lol
<@Shiral> nailed her to the perch otherwise she'd be up against the bars and VOOMPH!!!
* Rebecca groans
<Wrengl> You got it! Jasta

<@Shiral> Do not cross Don Corg-leone! <Or you might end up in bed with a horsehead...)
<Rebecca> now now... now fish fights
* KK brandishes a wet salmon.
<JastaElf> nebula, or fern, Shiral? :-)
-> *Bynw* I think I got the problem with the script fixed...had something turned on I probably shouldn't have...at least for #services!
* auntiedi only has some pickled herring.
<JastaElf> fish fights, fish fights, roly-poly fish fights....
<@Shiral> senor thumper is not sleeping with the fishes
<JastaElf> fishes?? We don' need no steenking fishes!!
<@Shiral> Nebula, Jasta
<Wrengl> Not he.
<auntiedi> in sour cream sauce.
<JastaElf> Cool! :-)
*** Quits: Chris <QUIT: User exited )
* Kelos_al-Hazar shudders, as he is reminded of the song "Fishheads"!
<@Bynw> well gang I'm gonna hit the hay
<@KK> Rightly you shudder, Kelos!
<auntiedi> niters bynw
<JastaElf> careful, it might hit back...
<Jessie> nighters Bynw
<@Shiral> Bye, Bynw
<JastaElf> bye bynw!
<Rebecca> night!
<Wrengl> Night Chris. By the way the strawberries dried nicely, Bynw
<hygilac> nighty night
<Kelos_al-Hazar> You've heard it too, KK?
<@KK> Good idea, Bynw. Our Carmelite crashed on the couch minutes ago.
<JastaElf> Night Chris? As opposed to Day Chris? :-)
<Jessie> lol
<Kelos_al-Hazar> Sleep well, Chris...
<@Shiral> Which Carmelite was that?
<@Shiral> They're always tipping over!
<@KK> A friend is here who's a Carmelite nun. She just got off a 23 hour bus ride.
<auntiedi> yikes, that's one long bus ride.
<@Shiral> Wow, That would make a person crash, all right
<Jessie> I thought the Carmelites were a full cloistered order
<Wrengl> She deserves to crash onthe couch, then.
<@KK> Yeah, we stuffed her full of steak, on top of bus lag; and she crashed.
<@Shiral> Well, hopefull on SOMETHING soft and immobile!
<@KK> On the couch with at least one cat curled up beside her.
<@Shiral> Not hard at Jasta's place by the sound of it!
<Wrengl> Cat will make all better.
<JastaElf> :-) we have 5...
<hygilac> an empathic cat, no doubt
<JastaElf> ALL people friendly for the most part, except Nicky the Bitch... ;-)
<Wrengl> Most of them are.
*** Quits: Bynw (QUIT: User exited )
<auntiedi> somehow i suspect anywhere at jasta's has a cat curled by its side.
<@Shiral> melissa's cats are still crapping razor blades when they see me
<@KK> Speaking of cats, Nicholas has figured out how to get upstairs at Holybrooke; now definitely knows where he lives.
<@Shiral> "Oh my God, It's AWAKE!!!"
<auntiedi> yay nicky!!
<Wrengl> Yeah Nicholas.
<hygilac> Good for him!
<@Shiral> GOod, Nicky's a quick study!
<Wrengl> me thumper sends his congratulations to Nicholas
<@KK> He's really a sweet, cuddly cat--probably a lap cat, once he settles in properly.
* JastaElf thinks that "crapping razorblades" is SOME visual... ;-)
<Jessie> certainly is Jasta
<@Shiral> That was Donaldspeak. <G>
<Wrengl> It certainly is Jasta
<JastaElf> I'm gonna run and get some sheets for Sr. Dawna Clare's bed... I'll see y'all later!
<Wrengl> Nah, couldn't guess that
<JastaElf> SMOOCHES!!!

<@KK> We'll do our best.
<@Shiral> Good Retreat, but don't forget to come back!
<Wrengl> They aren't retreating THAT far!
<Jessie> lol
* Shiral sounds the retreat "run away!"
<auntiedi> it's a strategic retreat.
<@KK> Will definitely come back. But now, I, too, am being called to the Land of Nod.
* Kelos_al-Hazar grins
<hygilac> HOpe you have a nice retreat

<Jessie> around 5 east or central?
<@Shiral> Including the look on Rob's face...<G>
