A Firesign Chat
04/26/2007




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 April 26, 2007 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood walks up and intones "Presenting 'Firebroiled', just granted probation at 8:32 AM", then leaves hurriedly.
Firebroiled: Hello Globetrotters! While we’re still on the ground, let’s look around and see where we are . . .

In the windows to your left, it’s five thousand feet to the bottom of the Grand Canyo-ooo-ooo-on . . .

Yet now, as inevitable as dawn, the Sun, arching on its axis, rises to meet the East --chariot-racing across the high noon desert sky, only to plummit, like bald Icarus, into the sensual, fermenting seas of the South Pacific. And even now, yet, as scary night decends upon us, we could appreciate the Wonders of Nature as stimulating as Man’s Own Triumphs! Let us pause . . .
Firebroiled: Long enough......... Let's Eat!!
||||||||| Firebroiled is defenestrated just as the clock strikes 8:33 AM.
||||||||| Catherwood tiptoes into the room, and announces "Announcing 'ah,clem', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 8:18 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the Aviary...
||||||||| New CNI streaming notice: 'no "few minutes" tonight, resting, see you all next week'
||||||||| At 8:20 PM, ah,clem dashes out the door saying "Hey, mister ice-cream man, I've got a nickel, wait for meeeee..."
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, April 26, 2007 - 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 'Tweeny Too Long', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 9:04 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the anteroom...
Tweeny Too Long: Rest up Clem... hope you feel better...
||||||||| Catherwood enters with Merlyn close behind, mutters something about disrupting his 9:08 PM tree-stunting plans, and runs off to the vestibule.
Merlyn: hey tween
Tweeny Too Long: Hi Merlyn. Guess JL's 'a feelin' poorly...
Merlyn: seems so
Tweeny Too Long: So, how's tricks in the land of 1000 lakes?
||||||||| Warp waltzes in at 9:11 PM carrying an obsidian door knocker.
||||||||| Catherwood enters with cease close behind, grumbles something about disrupting his 9:11 PM tree-stunting plans, and dashes off to the sitting room.
Merlyn: might be quiet tonight, the autopost for the chat went through but I still don't see them on my news machine...

Warp: they expressed in miles not light years!
||||||||| Catherwood stumbles in and pipes up "Presenting 'DJ Fong', just granted probation at 9:18 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
cease: its own asshole?
Warp: I don't konw the math, do you?
Tweeny Too Long: lol Cat
