TweenyMania: lol Boney
cease: ive been there too, doc
TweenyMania: On Bush's 'no fly" list because he has a beard, doubtless
cease: yes i was removed from flight once, not let into the states. this was the vietnam era
boney: Viagra will get you off the no-fly list
doctec: anyway, can't stay on very long tonight - i'm fried - i'm down to one night of pool league a week, wednesdays
Hemlock Stones: No Flys on you Tween

Hemlock Stones: and a big hello to you to Poop

Hemlock Stones: oh cool, i thought it was a non smoking room, (lights brazier of ganga and closes the window)
doctec: i did want to make an appearance tho - dr. headphones sends his regards, he too had a hard day & let me know via chat that he wouldn't be able to make it here tonight
Merlyn: I grew palms in my hair
cease: palm oil can be recycled
TweenyMania: Ja mon...

boney: Catherwood, please bring me a Harvey Wallbanger
||||||||| Catherwood gets boney a harvey wallbanger.
doctec: the challenge is there's so much to learn on many fronts: the programming language, the database design and setup, the application and how it's set up to work with the database - all very complex and interwoven
Merlyn: I control you!
cease: you can do it, doc
Hemlock Stones: sorry Merlyn, had to chop up the sidetable for kindling to get the brazier going
cease: your name guanantees it

cease: i need some cubes
Hemlock Stones: ty Catherwood
||||||||| Catherwood strides up to Hemlock Stones and asks "Something I can help with?"
principlepoop: what size and color is your bra?
doctec: i know sql but figuring out how the 60+ stored procedures that sit behind the application code, and undestanding how the 60 to 70 database tables they work with all tie together is formidable
Merlyn: he doesn't know l33t speak
TweenyMania: Sounds like it, Doc
doctec: and the code is only slightly documented, the code base is large and deeply intertwingled
TweenyMania: I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK...
boney: Catherwood, give Britney Spears something for her hangover
||||||||| Catherwood hands britney spears something for her hangover.
TweenyMania: Documentation is everything
doctec: and i can sense that after a month and a half they hoped i would be further along in my grasp of everything than i am

Merlyn: intertwingled?
cease: the forests of british columbia
doctec: intertwined/intermingled
cease: thats where i am
boney: The cockroaches have stolen my Viagra! I hope they go blind
principlepoop: do what you can, just don't break anything...
Merlyn: they probably aren't programmers doc, I've run into that attitude before

principlepoop: tell them to show you how to do it faster....
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood announces: "10:53 PM and late as usual, it's llanwydd, just back from Hellmouth."
cease: ozzie and ricky ran out of coin?
doctec: merl: not in this case - small company, two of the three head guys are major tech heads - most of the programmers in the office are russian, i hate it when they are talking about the code and the system and what they're working on and i can't understand a word

Honey : hey tell em this is america n they gotta speak english!
boney: Catherwood, get a fumigation tent

Hemlock Stones: dammit, the roaches just threw me ouf of my room
boney: MAD's Don Martin
cease: sounds firesonian, stones

boney: May Britney Spears comeback attempt be the last thing they ever see
Merlyn: ok see ya doc

boney: a curse
doctec: i'd stay and hang with you but i am running on fumes at the moment, gotta split

boney: May a scorned rapper throw a temper tantrum on their very souls
Dave & Katie: where are clem and bambi?
Honey : clem plum tuckered out n bambi not home yet, dave
principlepoop: they are worn out from traveling to work, doing ok now I think

Dave & Katie: talked to Ken yesterday, things are good with the man,
Honey : bambi is probably being interrogated by homeland security again
boney: What's the use? Life is just a cockroach race
cease: good
TweenyMania: Gotta go guys. Everbody have a great week...
||||||||| Around 11:02 PM, TweenyMania walks off into the sunset...
Dave & Katie: I hate when you're making plans and the person you are making them with doesn't call you back to get the information, grrrrr

boney: I feel the sky tumbling down... it's just global climate change
cease: n a klien bottle, dave
Dave & Katie: but not on false drugs
Hemlock Stones: these drugs are not false Dave
Merlyn: they're high on life and high octane gasoline (80$/barrel)
llanwydd: guys, next time I disappear, don't look for me. I'm having rouble with my settup and I'll be ready for bed if this happens again
Dave & Katie: good, rolls up arm, I actually listened to dwarf while stoned last night, nothing great came of it, but I was tired too, so that didn't help
Hemlock Stones: i have similar probs llan, i think a format is in order
cease: are all drugs not false? in the sense that their plant natures have been altered
Hemlock Stones: theya re only altered if i burn em cease
Dave & Katie: oh btw I just got the Albert Ayler box set and it says there's an introduction by Peter Bergman, I thought that was cool
Merlyn: oh, false DRUGS. I thought you said false RUGS
cease: the firesign really courted a stoned audience in those days, dave
cease: but it was as much marketing as anything.
cease: later they'd claim you could only appreciate their work if you werent stoned
Hemlock Stones: i havent smoked a rug in a long time, must have been the great shortage of 76,
Merlyn: hey neat dave
Dave & Katie: I know they did, it was fun to listen to though, everything did seem sharper,as if I understood every word the preacher was saying, then I got hungry, grin
Merlyn: I cut a rug
cease: there was great interview with mort sahl on truthdig.com a few days ago
Hemlock Stones: i only trimmed mine Merlyn
cease: hes 80 so a decade older than the olderst firesgin
cease: but had the same philosphy. that humour should be revolutionary
Hemlock Stones: FT sounded funny on or off drugs but on drugs the effect at least seemed more profound
Dave & Katie: ah mort sol, may his political jabs live on
cease: yes increased perception is always useful in firesign listening.
cease: for example, in a car they sound really good. headphones too
Merlyn: but if you trim your rug, it doesn't grow back, so soon you need to buy a new toupee
cease: hes old enough to be your great grandfather, dave
Dave & Katie: I'm thinking about it now, and I do remember finding the little opening sequence of the organ going up and down pretty funny and wanting it to be active as everyone else did
Dave & Katie: I had headphones on specifically
Hemlock Stones: about a dozen of us Fireheads used to sit round a blazing fire on a winters night, pass a pipe round and listen with considerable reverence
boney: He's older than Larry King. If that's possible
cease: the very first music i heard stoned was the soundtrack to Hair, which for some bizarre reason, was popular at the time
cease: i hated it before, and even more so stoned
Dave & Katie: he's not as old as mike wallice though, or paul harvey
Dave & Katie: and studs terkle is what 97 or so now?

Hemlock Stones: what was the problem with Freditor boney
cease: i wonder if austin attended?
Merlyn: cat, was ossman in a van down by the river?
Dave & Katie: good that the four or five still keep in contact
cease: the number of people who want the firesign to reach a larger audience is small enough to begin with
cease: dave, i dont know how much they actually do
Dave & Katie: and the carivan is on its way
cease: judigng from whatr austin says when he's here, not so much
boney: Freditor is monitoring the chat room. He'll probably post to the newsgroup about this conversation

Dave & Katie: still have the postcard that PP signed for me about 4 years ago
Hemlock Stones: surely that is a good thing Boney ?
