Stickman: Greetings!
Stickman: Oh God! I HATE that song!!

Merlyn

Merlyn <honk>
Stickman: I guess he squeezed it too hard.
Bambi: lol

Bambi: Nimo is such a boggler
Stickman: Hiyas, Ah,Clem.
Bambi: how has your week been?
Merlyn: After CNI, try this URL to listen to Stan Freberg's London show: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/markthomaspresents/pip/2f6i0/
Bambi: cool ... thanks Merlyn
Bambi: what time does it start Merlyn
Merlyn: It's the archive from yesterday, It'll be up for a week
Stickman: I remember Stan Freberg from the 60's.
Merlyn: Then the Firesign Theatre will be up for a week (probably a slightly different URL)
||||||||| Catherwood steals into the room, and intones "Announcing 'cease', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 9:17 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the sitting room...
Merlyn: I'm listening to both right now, for a bit
Bambi: hi cat
Bambi: ok, great Merlyn
cease: hey this is good

Bambi: I love Stan
Stickman: You've got something stuck in your era?

lennon-laura: Howdy Roto
cease: hi rootoo
Rotonoto: oh, wait- this is too early for me
Bambi: hi Roto
Stickman: Riddle me this...Why was "Radio Laffs of 1940" never released. Some really funny TFT stuff done live.
cease: i'm not as fat as cartman, but i have a better tuque
Rotonoto: hi all
cease: is laura with you, roto?
||||||||| Catherwood tiptoes into the room, and pipes up "Announcing 'Dave with braces', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 9:23 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the vestibule...
lennon-laura: It's later than you think, Roto
Stickman: Roto! Greets.
cease: it was released by firezine
Dave with braces: hi all, moderately early this time, yes I now have braces and they hurt like hell
Rotonoto: is that sidereal time or just eastern standard?
lennon-laura: Braces are just a crutch for your teeth
cease: hey dave
Bambi: hi Dave with braces
cease: i'm just back from the dentist myself
Rotonoto: wow- I made it just for once!
lennon-laura: Did the dentist make an impression?
Dave with braces: singing with braces is also interesting, but I'm doing better than I thought
Stickman: I think I'll just go sit on that dry hump over there.
Bambi: braces are no fun...especially getting used to them from what I hear
cease: what did you make, roto?
cease: #2?
Stickman: Pffttttt!
cease: you will do better than you'll think you'll do, dave
Rotonoto: a good impression, apparently
Stickman: That's metaphysically impossible!
cease: i am la brea man. i live in pitts
Rotonoto: yeah, stickman, keep from falling over on those crows...
Dave with braces: yes bambi getting used to them is quite literally nerve wracking, pretty painful and I like to think I can handle pain pretty well, so it's just soft foods and advil for now
Stickman: Time to pop open a Whizz.
||||||||| Catherwood escorts Snowbound Piano inside, makes a note of the time (9:27 PM), then fades off into the distance going on about the waiting room or the sitting room or something.
lennon-laura: Milkshakes??
Snowbound Piano: Catherwood, take my mukluks.
||||||||| Catherwood takes Snowbound Piano's mukluks.
lennon-laura: The man with the keys
Bambi: to straighten teeth ... never too old for braces, they say

Snowbound Piano: What key would you like, Laura?
Bambi: Hi Snowbound Piano ... errr, Johnny :-)
Snowbound Piano: Hola, Cat

Bambi: have you seen the new page on CNIRadio.com for Indie Artists yet? :-)
Snowbound Piano: Thanks for the note yesterday, Bambi
cease: no you didnt, ah clem
cease: ralph spoilsport was a competitor with my father's ford dealership in la
Snowbound Piano: Yes, I saw it - would have sent a reply but my server is not accepting my outgoing mail.
cease: proctor discovered his tv ad when in la in 66 and evolved the voice thereafter, almost pre firesign
Bambi: you are welcome JP :-)
Snowbound Piano: I like a woman that wants to play me...
Snowbound Piano: Oh, THAT was for Laura - I wouldn't be mean to Bambi...
ah,clem: yes, Cat, but that one of the earliest refs to it..
Bambi: lol
cease: is 1970 considered close to 1966?
cease: maybe from this point in time, but not then
Stickman: I was in the 99cent store today. I would love to hear Phil Austin do a play by play walk through in that place.
Snowbound Piano: I remember seeing Ralph Williams ads in the film "Head."
ah,clem: no, she likes it that way
cease: you did in deed, piano
cease: good idea, stick
Bambi: wow, didn't realize they were doing stuff back in 66

Snowbound Piano: Radio Free Oz in '66!

Stickman: Didn't they release their first album in '67?

Snowbound Piano: Mukluks for the dead!

cease: are you doing anything to mitigate the braces pain, dave?
cease: no stick 68. recorded in 67. they played it on their radio show first
lennon-laura: Are the guys getting anything??
Stickman: Save some of that Percodan for me, Dave.
cease: laid, i hope
Snowbound Piano: Geez, Dave - braces? Been there, done that...about 30+ years ago.
cease: they're all married now
Bambi: yeah...I lose track of time ... How Time Flys
Merlyn: They don't get much for their earlier elbums
lennon-laura: some of that stuff is not on albums
Snowbound Piano: Well, they'll be getting a something from me since I have a copy of the Just Folks CD coming here soon
Dave with braces: eyes Cat, advil is my friend, they won't let me take anything stronger, but I don't really need it I suppose
Dave with braces: *yes
Snowbound Piano: I'd be more worried about the scraping of the inside of your lips, Dave...I remember that pain well
Rotonoto: Hey Merl- how come my page is refreshing like every 15-20 seconds?
Merlyn: Because that's what it's set at
Merlyn: that's the only way new text appears
Dave with braces: yeah it's not too bad really, not yet anyway, the lips are holding out well, it's the teeth that are getting it bad, the nerves are enflamed
||||||||| 9:36 PM -- Stickman left for parts unknown. (Entry from Nick Danger's "Idiots I Have Been Paid To Follow").
lennon-laura: You want something jerky, try 4 seconds, Roto
Rotonoto: yes, but it seems a higher refresh rate than I'm used to...
Snowbound Piano: Looks like Stickman couldn't stick it out
Bambi: a Donald Duck impression LOL
Rotonoto: d up
Merlyn: It's whatever you have it set at, and how well your browser refreshes, and how fast the fst.com website feeds out pages
Bambi: see ya stickman
Snowbound Piano: Austin was "renowned" for his duck voice...hence the pre-FST single "Duckman"
Bambi: he said he was at work and might have to leave ;-)
Rotonoto: ...and even at 16kbs my audio feed is getting all chopped up by buffering
cease: you have that, piano?
Snowbound Piano: Nope, no Duckage here
lennon-laura: I missed the Duckman....
Rotonoto: *I* have it set? where? In Firefox?
Bambi: wonder if they are getting royalties on "Just Folks" and "Duckman" ;-)
lennon-laura: Is Butterfly still in business
||||||||| A time machine materializes at 9:39 PM and doctecarino steps out, carrying a grape from ancient Greece.
Snowbound Piano: I would assume that the Just Folks release via Lodestone is going to generate some royalty for the guys.
lennon-laura: Hey tom
doctecarino: i... am....so....stuffed
cease: oh fuck. it's doc tec!
Bambi: in the dropdown menu, you can change that Roto
Merlyn: are you in the trocadero?
Snowbound Piano: Of course we could wait and ask Bubba if he arrives.
cease: lili should be saying that
Bambi: hi Doctec
doctecarino: lili lamont and i just got back from a fantastic and amazing mexican meal
Snowbound Piano: Tech-head!
Dave with braces: there's still so much FST that I don't have
Snowbound Piano: There's an awful lot of FST to obtain!
Bambi: hi to Lili too
cease: how is lili?
doctecarino: my energy level has been sub-par since picking up a flu bug while visiting with dear old dad at his new place in IL
Rotonoto: Bambi- please elaborate
cease: almost beyinod possilbity, johnny p
cease: bummer, doc
Snowbound Piano: Where in IL, Doc?
doctecarino: ...a bug which quickly morphed into a bronchial infection which continues to dog me
Merlyn: ILL after IL?
cease: i'm cat, you dog
lennon-laura: Keep the Vit-C up with the zinc, Doc
doctecarino: snowie: some backwater burg called huntley - del webb has built another one of his 'active adult' communities there
cease: lotsa garlic
Snowbound Piano: Careful, Merl...I'm in ILL...
cease: i havew to get my parents into one of those, while still capable of actrivity
Bambi: choose Configure at the bottom of the 'send to all' drop down menu Roto
cease: not for long, i fear
Bambi: it will be apparent when you do that
doctecarino: my main therapy, other than taking it easy (no choice there anyway) has been to suck up as much steam from a vaporizer as i can take
Snowbound Piano: Huntley...not familiar with it. Next someone will claim it's near Brinkley
Rotonoto: OK, and what is the 'arfument syntax' you enter under config?
lennon-laura: All tax is syn
cease: klok? what did he do?
doctecarino: to top it all off, the pc i built for my dad back in august (when he was still in NC) went on the fritz last week
Dave with braces: and all sin is taxing
Bambi: redraw
Bambi: I have mine set at 30
doctecarino: seems there was a power surge during a storm, his pc won't boot
cease: i recorded all this.
doctecarino: he shipped it to me - i checked it out, his ntfs file system was trashed
cease: f only the air checks were released. for this and the even better shows before, 67 mostly
lennon-laura: something's cooked??
Bambi: Klok sent some of the old shows as well as CharlesThroat sending the TrussCDs
doctecarino: i was able (through the wonderful "stellar phoenix" data recovery program) to recover all the data from it
cease: how is your dad, doc?
lennon-laura: the chip set?
Rotonoto: brb, going to swithc to a real phone line...
doctecarino: but now i have to rebuild his hard drive contents and that's gonna be onerous at best
Snowbound Piano: As opposed to a surreal phone line
cease: at least you have a parent you is conversant with computers, doc
doctecarino: cat: dad is doing very much better than his pc (or rather, his pc's hard drive - the rest of his pc seems to be ok)
Bambi: cool, cat! we wouldn't have known that before cuz it didn't say anything about who recorded them originally on the CDs.
Merlyn: where you can store your orth
||||||||| "Hey Rotonoto!" ... Rotonoto turns, and sees Bradshaw approching with the handcuffs, and is dragged away, screaming "it's only 9:48 PM, I don't have to go yet!"...
lennon-laura: pull as much as you can to an external drive?
||||||||| Catherwood ushers Dexter Fong into the room, accepts an I.O.U. as a gratuity, grumbles something about 9:48 PM, then departs.
Dexter Fong: Eveniong all

Snowbound Piano: Yo Dex
Bambi: hi Dex

Merlyn: hey dex
Merlyn: boeing spoken?
Snowbound Piano: Take a bow, Cat
cease: hey dex, have you talked to elayne today?
Dexter Fong: Hi everybody
cease: do you all know about her?
doctecarino: cat: well, yes ... but with two very big caveats: (1) i set him up with an external hard drive for doing regular backups, which he has ignored since - and (2) he can't find his windows xp install disk [the result of the chaos surrounding the move from NC to IL] so i'm gonna have to circumvent that somehow
Dexter Fong: Cat: No, why?
lennon-laura: her blog??
cease: id rather have the violin
cease: hart attack thingie. go to her blog
Snowbound Piano: Ouch
Dexter Fong: Oh my....
cease: i thought you all knew that.

Dexter Fong: Philadelphia, if Nino is to be trausted
lennon-laura: Hope she makes a full recovery!
cease: aint that what bookmarks are for?
cease: as do we all, laura.
cease: we would not exist here without her
||||||||| Outside, the 9:52 PM bus from Hellmouth pulls away, leaving Bubba's Brain coughing in a cloud of diesel fumes.
cease: this is her baby
Bambi: sorry to hear that about elayne ... have been too busy to read Elayne's blog for over a week now
Bubba's Brain: Hey all!
Snowbound Piano: Speak of the devil...
lennon-laura: Hey Bub, how's lodestone?
Dexter Fong: Hey Bubba

Bubba's Brain: Its a lode, and its a stone....

doctecarino: tis true cat - it was at elayne's place back in '96 or so that i first jumped into the chat fray
Snowbound Piano: BeelzeBubba!
Bambi: hi Bubba

doctecarino: '96 or '97 ... i forget ...
lennon-laura: don't let it weigh you down too much
Bubba's Brain: Hey, JP, gotcher package yet?
||||||||| Catherwood stumbles in and pipes up "Presenting 'PrinciplePoop', just granted probation at 9:54 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
cease: i was here the first night but i forget the year
Snowbound Piano: No sire, perhaps tomorrow!
doctecarino: maybe '97 - cuz i remember i showed her an early version of my firesign site in late winter/early spring of '97
Bubba's Brain: know what, cat?
Bambi: hi principleP

Snowbound Piano: Hey Poop!
PrinciplePoop kisses bambi while ah,clem is not looking
cease: e both chatted with group online then, just as we did in nyc in may at her place
cease: or was it 95? too long ago
PrinciplePoop: reality is a pretty flower that smells bad, according to spock
Dexter Fong: zest appeal
doctecarino: that was when i was commuting between NY and CT weekdays - i would land at her place (in, what was it, bronx or brooklyn) thursdays, we'd do the tag team chat thing, and i'd sleep over - making for a shorter commute to work friday morning
||||||||| At 9:55 PM, Dexter Fong vanishes mysteriously -- just as Nino the Mind Boggler predicted!
cease: you think there is only one reality, spock poop?
||||||||| "9:56 PM? 9:56 PM!!" says Catherwood, "Dexter Fong should be here by now...oh, THERE you are!" as Dexter Fong enters and sits in the comfy chair.
doctecarino: the many springs from the one
PrinciplePoop: or reality is an imaginary garden with real toads in it
cease: indeed, doc
Dexter Fong: Tunes into CNI for big rock out jam type musicale
PrinciplePoop: refong
Snowbound Piano: Takes a lot o'Poop to fertilize that garden
PrinciplePoop: santana at woodstock they said

Snowbound Piano: Let me off this wheel of karma

Dexter Fong: This wheels on fire!
cease: goin down the Band
Snowbound Piano: It's dead, PP
Dexter Fong: feeling road
PrinciplePoop: that's what the world is today
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood pipes up: "9:58 PM and late as usual, it's Rotonoto, just back from Elmertown."
cease: id like to hear a cleaner recording off this
doctecarino: lili was going to join us but i think between the radiation treatments and tonight's margaritas, she's down for the count
PrinciplePoop: smoke it piano
Dexter Fong: Hey Roto..like terrific serenity

Bubba's Brain: Oooh hoo... Weeble Woman....
PrinciplePoop: whats a weebie? weebie bozos on this bus
Dexter Fong: Cat: Do you know this show..and is it sometime in late june,,an Hour Hour show?
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 10 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
Rotonoto: it's so bad, the local phone co here steals pairs and swaps them around dependinfg on who is screaming the loudest
Dexter Fong: Roto: Pears are no longer in season
Snowbound Piano: Weebies are just one of the tribes
PrinciplePoop: they have to scream on the bad phone lines
Bubba's Brain: Swaps em with apples?
doctecarino: she's a week away from being done with the radiation treatments, then there are some followup doctor appts... assuming all has gone well, they'll just monitor her situation every 6 months from here on in
lennon-laura: Pairs are always in season
Rotonoto: the phone company will literally steal your phone line, stick you with a crappier one
Bambi: yes, get well soon Elayne! We love you!
PrinciplePoop: a week away? sooperdooper
Snowbound Piano: Au pairs?
Dexter Fong: Hiya Clem..the silver-tongued emcee

Bambi: there are not nearly enough phone 'connections' it seems recently ... we have been getting the fast busy way too much on Verizon in VA
PrinciplePoop: free advertizing for cat
doctecarino: i really have to get the rest of the aq stuff done this weekend
Rotonoto: one time they stole my line, forgot to give me another- I had no phone servi8ce for entire weekend
cease: i think in person will take on a new meaning soon
lennon-laura: Time to go up the pole and steal a few for yourself
cease: but i have nothing to sell, poop
Rotonoto: nope- twice, in fact
Bubba's Brain: Actually, you only have to steal twopoints to steal a line... but it takes three points to steal a curve.
PrinciplePoop: i went to high school with a twisted pair, I could try to find them for you
doctecarino: between fixing computer problems, helping out lili and dealing with this bronchial infection it's been hard to get caught up with outside commitments
Rotonoto: ohhhhh! that it were that easy, lennon!
Snowbound Piano: Rather pretzel like, Poop
cease: try Pretzel Logic
Dexter Fong: Bubba: How much to cast a shadow?
lennon-laura: and three points make a plane

Dexter Fong: Lumber jack Nads?
Dexter Fong: Don't wanna hear this
lennon-laura: just behind the ands,...you know
Snowbound Piano: You can keep those lumberjack nads
doctecarino: i'll tell ya one thing - since getting lili set up with a wireless router, it makes it much easier for me to set up my laptop on the web from anywhere in her place
PrinciplePoop: echo chamber antics
Dexter Fong: antics...antics...anti...
cease: on a critique of the nuclear industry in a mag i was involved with, there was a drawing of an atom being split by a lumberjack, a nd i added the caption "i'm a lumberjack and i'm ok"
doctecarino: hello - ello - ello - ello - ello - ello - ello - ello - ello -

Rotonoto: it gets better- they rewired our local 'switch and now my long distance is broken- for like 3 weeks- and idiots can't fix it!
doctecarino: a favouring tranvitism? how much can you make an hour doing that?
cease: speaking of said mag, doc tec will be brining it to you all soon on www.seemreal.com, won't you doc?

Snowbound Piano: Aargh - Crosby ref!

Merlyn: on & off like a crazy monkey
Bambi: lol
Dexter Fong: SP: Der Bingle?
doctecarino: firesign guys often had no other choice but to go along with whatever crap 'the live earl jive' threw at them
PrinciplePoop: I was helplessly hoping for that
cease: who told you that, doc?
Snowbound Piano: Nah, der Byrdle
Bambi: at their mercy so to speak, huh? bummer
cease: this is phone from nyc
doctecarino: i recall austin sort of complaining about that once - the fact that the production on these shows was all too often chaotic and unfocused
PrinciplePoop: our house is a very very nice house, with two gnomes in the yard
Dexter Fong: and the Travelocity Gnome on the phone
cease: yes you can see engineer fucking with this. jive fucked them up, but to good effect
||||||||| Catherwood walks up and intones "Presenting 'otonotoR', just granted probation at 10:10 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
Snowbound Piano: Oh, the episode where Proctor's in NYC and old man Ossman is out in the country?
PrinciplePoop: hello? oh oh oh

doctecarino: in retrospect, the spontaneity lends the shows quite a bit of charm - but at the time, i think austin felt a little constrained by the lack of forethought with the production style
Dave with braces: gnomes? and yeah that would bother me if there wasn't a bit of organization in a show, as much as I like spontaneity
Bubba's Brain: And one gnome in 18 inches....
cease: yes it is, piano
PrinciplePoop: wb oto noto r
Snowbound Piano: Ya know, David just had a birthday...#69.
cease: hows it goin with the braces, dave? how do you cope with pain?

Dexter Fong: SP: So that's make Goliath...what...about 70 - 71
PrinciplePoop: braces?
doctecarino: HELLO!?!?
doctecarino: can you hear me now?
Dexter Fong: HELLO!?!?
PrinciplePoop: phil?
Snowbound Piano: Dunno 'bout Goliath...have to ask Art Clokey
lennon-laura: Tirebiter is much older....206
Bubba's Brain: Not to be shouting, can hear you.
doctecarino: is not sure you can hear me
otonotoR: hey, I actually have an old wire recording of this
Dave with braces: it's going ok with the braces, I'm not in too much pain right now, enough to be annoyed though, give me about 2 hours and I'll be rushing off for more advil, nothing stronger for me though, hopefully it'll go away in a few days
cease: i sem to have the recording that all others came from, alas
Dexter Fong: Doc: I read you five by eight
Bubba's Brain: Brace yourself
cease: does advil work?
Bubba's Brain: two by four?
otonotoR: ...
PrinciplePoop: I have not reviewed the log, what are the braces on dave?
Snowbound Piano: Did they yank any teeth, Dave?
Bubba's Brain: seven by six?
cease: had them when i was in jn high. dont recall when but kennedy was still presidnet
Bubba's Brain: 42
doctecarino: dave: it will, i went through the braces thing and it was a royal pain in the mouth - but after was all said and done, it was worth the aggravation.
Dexter Fong: PP: Dave's got new suspenders
lennon-laura: Those twisted pair will do it to you everytime, Roto, and turn you around
Rotonoto: ..
Snowbound Piano: I'm sure I got my copy via Dr. Headphones, Cat...chances are he got 'em from you
cease: you think chicks will find you more attractive, dave?
doctecarino: twisted pears, twisted melons - all part of the 'subversive fruit' contingent

cease: air checks
cease: insane is getting less and less funny as my parents plunge
Bubba's Brain: I wrote an air check once. It bounced.
Dexter Fong: I wrote the supermarket an air check and they gave me the air
doctecarino: it's a problem with rights and clearances, cat - in today's world of litigoius copyright holders, and given the lack of any documentation re the source material of many of the drop-in effects and music in all the old shows, there's no way to track down all the copyright holders and make sure no one is gonna go after the guys for using copyrighted material in old shows re-released on cd
cease: the orignal tapes of the shows, properly mixed, could and should be part of the museum of radio and tv, smtihsonian, ldoesonte, et al
otonotoR: ha ha, that's very logical...
cease: yes indeedo, doc
Snowbound Piano: They'd have to remove a lot of stuff - like Beatles tunes, for example
Dexter Fong: Steal this Intellectual Property
cease: thts what merl or someone posted to alt ft if anyone wold buy their dear freinds shows without the cpoywirtten shit
PrinciplePoop: I read that somewhere else doc, that is a copyright violation what you said

Dexter Fong: Billy Barty
cease: no the stolen riffs could not be sold

cease: and they didnt get rich on that
PrinciplePoop: smoked oysters and pecan swirls? she is pregnant, congratulations
cease: would have to be much better advertised
Bambi say "Patent Pending" really really fast!

doctecarino: oh dear - i guess having repeated this info from other sources i can expect to hear from some two-bit lawyer outfit tomorrow morning
Dexter Fong: Catherwood smoke the oysters and twirl the pecans

cease: daves been gone so long his braces have fallen off\
PrinciplePoop: dave must have some good pills ha
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: I prefer Wild Turkey from Winn Dixie.
Dexter Fong: Well Cat (and DocT could tell you better) but oft times in crowded areas it's possible to piggy back on someone else's broadband wirless signal
doctecarino: my optimum online ISP allows for accessing my email through its browser-based email client - i can get and respond to email from a web cafe, a friend's internet-connected pc, a laptop with a wireless card in anyplace that offers 'hot spot' wireless access
cease: yeah tween. my query was of, what just hotmail? i'd like to do more than that
PrinciplePoop: dinque me again like you did last summer
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: Is Google really going to make all of SF wireless?
Dexter Fong: doink!!
doctecarino: tween: i think they're gonna try - they sure have the deep pockets (not to mention fiber optic cable) to pull it off
PrinciplePoop: the wishing well refused your coin dexter
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: Powerbooks are expensive compared to PC laptops.
||||||||| Catherwood accompanies Donk6 in through the front door at 11:12 PM, picks up his cues (only slightly scorched), and heads for the billiard room.
cease: yes but my need for email is not that problematic. what i thik of is more if there is anything i need to access by web i wont be able to. but that's unlikely
Dexter Fong: The Police are making all of Philadelphia wireless...they're ripping out all the electric and phone lines in the ghettos
PrinciplePoop: hello donk6
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: Don't look behind you...
Donk6: Hey PP

LeftRev.Tweenstormer: They're going to have to do something to get people back, Bubba...
PrinciplePoop: I don't think troutville is going wireless soon
klokwkdog: in most states, the phone companies have now pushed thru laws making socialist provision of wireless by towns or cities illegal
Bubba's Brain: Billville is going wireless... or rather the tornado ripped out all the phone lines
doctecarino: ooh, maybe an http redirect would work then
otonotoR: Bozoette sez I'm becoming a fanatic about 'that health stuff'
PrinciplePoop: go to billville and get some roto
Bubba's Brain: BRB -- going to put clothes in drier.
Dexter Fong: Klok: No problemo..we only hire illegal South Americans...no commie Europeans
PrinciplePoop: take them off first bubba, I learned that the hard way
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: Yeah, I heard abou that Klok. The small towns that took matters into their own hands are a bit of a problem for them.

otonotoR: I'm not allowed any sharp objects or anything with string in it
Dexter Fong: Maybe shoulda been first?
PrinciplePoop: 25 years, that is impossible, somebody is fooling around with the calender
LeftRev.Tweenstormer: LoL Klok. At the hands of McCartney maybe...
Donk6: well i lit up a cigar for john but no candle

klokwkdog: tweeny -- i don't think paul felt that way before and certainly not after

Donk6: soon we will be saying "i
Dexter Fong: Jack London is not well?

Bambi: JL, aka ah,clem is alive and well
Donk6: soon we will be saying " i'm sorry , you have the bird flu"

||||||||| Catherwood accompanies Dexter Fong inside, makes a note of the time (11:54 PM), then fades off into the distance going on about the waiting room or the sitting room or something.
Bambi: oh, sorry...must have missed the connection ... Jackson did a wonderful job on LoTR movies. Very true to books as much as was possible and then some. I think he would do a great job on King Kong IF he feels as strongly about the book as he did LoTR books.

klokwkdog resists the obvious reply to Roto's straight line...
otonotoR: sees you guize next week, mebbe...
klokwkdog: porgie - I'm always wary of what those embedded players are doing to me (I trust Winamp, sort of)
otonotoR: now, everyone go'way, then come back, have new adventure...
||||||||| 12:18 AM -- otonotoR left for parts unknown. (Entry from Nick Danger's "Idiots I Have Been Paid To Follow").
cease: i have been gone
||||||||| It's 12:20 AM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:
||||||||| PrinciplePoop - dead from The Plague
||||||||| Donk6 - dead from the common cold
||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
cease: a real gone cat
klokwkdog: oh, Dallas! I should have known. Houston would not be suave enough to have a jazz station... ;-)
klokwkdog: yes, you have not responed for some time, cat
klokwkdog: gad, they sure make it hard enough to find out where 107.5 is. Ya gotta dig thru to "contact information"? shades of the clear channel-minot disaster
klokwkdog: don't everybody type at once, now
klokwkdog: OK, nite cat, porgie, dex
||||||||| Around 12:27 AM, klokwkdog walks off into the sunset...
||||||||| It's 12:30 AM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:
||||||||| Dexter Fong - dead from dengue fever
||||||||| porgie - dead from the common cold
||||||||| cease - dead from The Plague
||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
||||||||| "12:58 AM? 12:58 AM!!" says Catherwood, "Stickman should be here by now...oh, THERE you are!" as Stickman enters and sits on the divan.
||||||||| Stickman says "Catherwood, call me a cab." After the obvious joke, Stickman exits at 12:59 AM.
||||||||| Catherwood strides up and pipes up "Presenting 'Stickman', just granted probation at 12:59 AM", then leaves hurriedly.
Stickman: I'll just stand here like an idiot talking to myself. hehe
||||||||| At 1:00 AM, Stickman hurries out the door saying "Hey, mister ice-cream man, I've got a nickel, wait for meeeee..."
||||||||| Gusts of wind blow in from outside and the thumpa-thumpa-thumpa of helicopter blades is heard as Happy Panditt's chopper lands on the lawn and Stickman disembarks at 1:00 AM.
||||||||| At 1:00 AM, the lights go out! Rocky Rococo's voice pierces the inky darkness: "I've got you now, Stickman!" Shattering glass is heard, and then the lights come back on...
||||||||| Catherwood enters, and announces to all and sundry "It's 4:32 AM, time to change the log file and clean out unused rooms; please exit the chat room for a minute or two. Thank you for your patience."
