Archive

||||||||| 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 February 15, 2007 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Firebroiled enters at 8:43 AM as Catherwood takes their hat and goat and hurries off to the Hat Pack Annex.
Firebroiled: You haven’t heard nothing yet. I’ve got right here in this car, for your trans-Atlantic driving pleasure, this fully hallicrafted Sea-Master short-wave radio in this non-returnable, non-disposable zinc-lined carrying case!
||||||||| At 8:43 AM, Firebroiled vanishes mysteriously -- just as Nino the Mind Boggler predicted!
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood pipes up: "9:52 AM and late as usual, it's Aziz, just back from Casablanca."
||||||||| It's 10:00 AM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:
||||||||| Aziz - dead from the fiddlers
||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
||||||||| 4:13 PM: wake jumps out of the hall closet saying "I've been listening to all of you talking about me for the past hour!"
wake: sounds great so far
wake: >> sits down on a nearby sanitary pedistal
||||||||| At 4:22 PM, the lights go out! Rocky Rococo's voice pierces the inky darkness: "I've got you now, wake!" Shattering glass is heard, and then the lights come back on...
||||||||| Catherwood escorts wakerino into the room, accepts an I.O.U. as a gratuity, mutters something about 4:23 PM, then departs.
wakerino: That IOU is good for a free bigee fries at Wendy's.
||||||||| wakerino rushes off, saying "4:26 PM? Mark Time is almost on! Where's a radio?"
||||||||| Catherwood walks up and announces "Presenting 'wake', just granted probation at 4:26 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
wake: hmmm... not the solution I expected.
||||||||| wake rushes off, saying "4:28 PM? Mark Time is almost on! Where's a radio?"
||||||||| Catherwood trudges in at 7:42 PM, dragging ah,clem by the hair and asks "Can anyone vouch for this idiot?"
||||||||| New CNI streaming notice: '"a few minutes with FireSign Theatre" at about 9 eastern time, take off your shoes'
||||||||| ah,clem says "Catherwood, call me a cab." After the obvious joke, ah,clem exits at 7:44 PM.
||||||||| Mudhead tiptoes in around 8:14 PM, trying to avoid Catherwood because of last year's "unpleasant incident."
||||||||| A time machine materializes at 8:53 PM and ah,clem bounds out, carrying a grape from ancient Greece.
ah,clem: hiya Mud
ah,clem: the time please Catherwood
||||||||| Catherwood says "It's 8:56 PM"
||||||||| Catherwood steals into the room, and intones "Announcing 'Merlyn', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 9:00 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the vestibule...
Merlyn: hellooo
Mudhead: hiya ah,clem
Mudhead: hi nancy
Mudhead: er, Merlyn
Merlyn: I'm still known
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, February 15, 2007 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!"
ah,clem: hi Merl
Merlyn: hi clem
||||||||| cease enters at 9:04 PM as Catherwood takes their hat and goat and scurries off to the Hat Pack Annex.
Merlyn: hey cat

||||||||| "9:08 PM? 9:08 PM!!" says Catherwood, "Tweety should be here by now...oh, THERE you are!" as Tweety enters and sits at the bar.
cease: hi mud
Merlyn: not particularly, but I can email him if I like
||||||||| Catherwood leads llampwykk in through the front door at 9:10 PM, picks up his cues (only slightly scorched), and heads for the billiard room.
Tweety: I thought I thaw a puddy tat...
llampwykk: evening folks
Mudhead: hi tweenster
Mudhead: hi llan
Tweety: Ah, must have those Java applets enabled...
Merlyn: the gates swung open and a Dickens character entered
