||||||||| Catherwood re-enters the Waiting Room and explains "This is the main discussion room which is logged each night."
||||||||| Catherwood announces, "The time is 4:33 AM - I now declare Thursday's chat log for October 06, 2005 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood enters with Firebroiled close behind, grumbles something about disrupting his 9:17 AM tree-stunting plans, and hurries off to the anteroom.
Firebroiled: LAUGH RUNAWAY. The Doctor makes no readout. Read UNHAPPY MACNAM. UNHAPPY MACNAM. SYSTAT. UPTIME 9:01. I have been awake for 9 hours, 2 minutes, 36 seconds . . . . . But long enough for the THURSDAY NIGHT CHAT!!.....MMMMMMMMMMM?......YESS-S-S-S-S-S-S....!
||||||||| Firebroiled says "Catherwood, call me a cab." After the obvious joke, Firebroiled exits at 9:17 AM.
||||||||| Catherwood steals into the room, and pipes up "Announcing 'porgie', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 4:06 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the anteroom...
porgie: hey what happened? The lights went and I missed everything. What a mess
||||||||| It's 4:20 PM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:
||||||||| porgie - dead from measles
||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, October 06, 2005 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!" -- then he looks around at the empty room, looks at his watch, and mumbles "...am I early?"
||||||||| Catherwood tiptoes into the room, and announces "Announcing 'TropicalDepressionTweeny', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 9:05 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the Aviary...
TropicalDepressionTweeny: No need for alarm...
||||||||| Catherwood accompanies ah,clem in through the front door at 9:08 PM, picks up his cues (only slightly scorched), and heads for the billiard room.

llanwydd: I had to junk the car. wasn't worth fixing. Should have something else in a few days
llanwydd: hey cat!

   TOR           : be back soon
Elayne: I wouldn't know, Cat, I don't do subways nowadays, more's the pity. Subway'ed it on Tuesday to and from my lunch with Dex. But I mostly do private transportation in my daily commutes now.
   TOR           : soon, see
klokwkdogB4fall: cat - Cory Doctorow was on TWIT #25 (current one) and gushed about Mirror Mask, which just opened in SF and NYC: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0366780/
cease: i definitely dont have this, unfortunately
Elayne: I really adore my commute, and I almost enjoy supporting the Venezuelan people every time I gas up, but I miss the convenience of Manhattan...
Elayne: I don't think Cory likes me very much sometimes...
cease: i was glad the reviewer knew neal's script for babylon 5 but he said it was the only one strz didnt write. i thought ellison wrote on epiesode
klokwkdogB4fall: I thought Penn Jillette wrote one, or part of one
   TOR           : MirrorMask, I hate lookin' for them there things.
Elayne: Peter wrote a couple Bab5 episodes, including one that still makes me cringe, but I'll never admit it to his face.
Elayne: Oop, that's Peter David (as opposed to Peter Bergman or Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater)...
cease: who is peter?
cease: penn starred in the episode neal wrote. superb
cease: i thought ellison wrote the one with the 2 maintenance workers
Elayne: Cat, he's on my Top Six list on my blogroll (along with Neil).
Bambi: Penn Jillette ... from Penn and Teller?
cease: i must czweck him out
cease: yep
cease: going to new japanese flick on sunday. will blog about that
klokwkdogB4fall: oh, neal wrote the Penn & T episode?
Bambi: why would Cory not like you for being in the top six on your blogroll E?
cease: or so it said in the episode guide
Elayne: I haven't seen a movie in awhile. If MirrorMask is still around weekend after this one, maybe I'll go see it.
cease: is it based on a comic, el?
Bambi: I often blog about what Cory writes lo'
Elayne: NO Bambi, he didn't like what I said in an email exchange. He's probably forgotten it now though, we've corresponded a bit since.
Elayne: BoingBoing is on my blogroll, just not in the Top Six...
klokwkdogB4fall: Bambi, Clem - - those Canon XL2s seem to be in use on the current TWIT. Video looks very nice.
Elayne: Cat, I believe it's based on a book rather than a graphic novel/comic'y thing.
||||||||| Catherwood leads Donk into the room, accepts a jar of pennies as a gratuity, mutters something about 9:39 PM, then departs.
klokwkdogB4fall: Cory went on and on about MM, said Neal did a great job
||||||||| It's 9:40 PM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:

Bambi: want to see Firefly :-)

Bambi: I hear ya Klok ... sounds like it will be a good show
klokwkdogB4fall: cat - what? not Lost??? ;-))))

klokwkdogB4fall hangs his head, chastized
Merlyn: BBoy, that's a browser bug. Happens to me too (though I've changed it so it at least works for me now). Just refresh your whole browser manually once, and it should works after that.
klokwkdogB4fall: there's something worng with the works?
Bunnyboy: I done got myself hooked on LOST. It's fun!
principalPoop: give me your belt klock
Bambi: if you open another browser window Bunny, you can go to CNIRadio.com and click on the Listen Now link or paste the address on the main page in your play location on your audio player.
klokwkdogB4fall avoids that and the other S-F-like show. NYT was gushing about yet another S-Fish/X-Files-ish show starting soon that has some kind of alien virus on the loose
Donk: yeah, can't figure that show out, but it is fun
Bunnyboy: Merl: Y'know, you gave me the same advice recently, and I shamefully ignored it. I'll try that next week. Thanks!

Bambi: lol TOR

Bambi: there are also some replays of our JimmyLee and Bambi Show on the Replays page if you would like to listen to them at sometime.

Bambi: yes, would love to hear it Bunny
   TOR           : mousers
   TOR           : ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND

   TOR           : Pussy cats to eat them when the sun goessss doooowwwwn
Bunnyboy: Do most of you watch LOST?

Bambi: newsgroups on Yahoo should have it
Bunnyboy: Yeah, check out alt.tv.lost - it's a new post, with my handle onnit.
klokwkdogB4fall: click on the image for the large version... http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html

Donk: space is really, really big
klokwkdogB4fall: actually, for chat log purposes, the above link would survive better as: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap051006.html
cease: as compared to what, donk?
principalPoop: yah, tell fong that when he is looking for a parking place

   TOR           : Have fun, not havin' fun.
Donk: as in "here come the...."?
klokwkdogB4fall: Yeah, the latest Mayan Temple thing was amazing. People dig up some stone inscriptions and immediately relate them to some inscriptions from decades ago. They not only can read them, they can discern "style" in the writing!
principalPoop: yes
Donk: well as ah clem said, we are all bozos here
Bunnyboy: Donk: A friend of mine put it this way - It's kinda like watching a remake of THE ROCKFORD FILES, starring Freddie Prinze Jr.
klokwkdogB4fall: I guess Toffler was right -- we're going to be overrun with experts on the most arcane stuff imaginable
Bunnyboy: i.e. it STINKS!
Donk: lol, BB
llanwydd: this is a flipflop, springhead
klokwkdogB4fall: we already are close to having more Civil War re-enactors than originally fought in that war, and may be coming up on parity with modern versions of the small arms.

Donk: well freddy married my girlfriend, so i don't like him

   TOR           : Mayan, the guy or gal who wrote "Me-s Maya banjo guy-a" (For "Just Shoot Mr") made moi laugh.
klokwkdogB4fall: of course, the way things are going in Iraq, the re-enactors are getting very worried about being called up...
cease: if bergman hadnt lost his girlfriend to neal cassady, there would be no firesign theatre
   TOR           : That should be ME_A
llanwydd: Toffler! That's a blast from the past. Then there was Hal Lindsey, Eric von daniken. all the same idea
   TOR           : Well, lets hear it for chick swippin' Neal.
klokwkdogB4fall: Bunny - at least we can walk upright...
principalPoop: me-oh my-oh down at the bayou
Donk: spell check missed that one , TOR
Bunnyboy: klok: Speak for yourself!

klokwkdogB4fall: there seems to be a direct line from Toffler to Faith Popcorn, but I don't see it going back to von Daniken, Castenada or Velikovsky
Donk: showing off your broadband again Bambi
principalPoop: nostradumbass wrote about that centuries ago
cease: bergman had a radio show after the mushroom show where hepretended vielikovsky was real
cease: the firesign were way hooked on bullshit other realtities in those days
klokwkdogB4fall: you mean correct or real, Cat?
   TOR           : He ain't real, rats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
