Elayne: Yes Cat, I don't remember her name but it was wife #1.
cease: Fumiyo and I sent our condolences by snail mail this morning
cease: Did this news just happen today? I didn't turn on my computer yesterday

||||||||| Catherwood accompanies Bunnyboy into the room, accepts a jar of pennies as a gratuity, grumbles something about 9:13 PM, then departs.
Bunnyboy: RIP Devin
cease: Was Devin a child when David was married to Tiny?
Dexter Fong: Hi BB
Elayne: I believe, Cat.
Elayne: Evenin' Bunnyboy.
Bunnyboy: Actually, his body was found yesterday, about noon, on Mount Rainier.
Bunnyboy: Details here:
cease: It says he was 45. I'm trying to figure out David has been with Judith but it's less than 20 years, I think
Elayne: David and Tiny didn't have children. I think David had two by his first wife.
Merlyn: by the way, the birth year is a guess on my part, since he was 45, and I'm betting no birthday yet this year
Bunnyboy: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2004293972_hiker20m.html
Merlyn: ok BB
cease: Orson and Preston are both with Judith then
Elayne: Yes Cat.
Merlyn: so 1962 or 1963
Bunnyboy: I remember seeing Devin's photo when he was declared missing, and then when I saw the name Ossman, I figured he must be related to David. Very sad.
Bunnyboy: Condolences to all the Ossmans.
jahgust: Normally I wouldn't ask at a time like this but if I could get that e address as well. Dave was so ridiculously nice to me in Portland, even though I was in full geek dance mode; he just made me feel welcome and friendly. I'd like to return the favor.
cease: I remember Devin as being very quiet, as the article said.
Bunnyboy: Local station got some beautiful words from David:
cease: Maybe having a famous comedian for a father does that
Bunnyboy: http://www.kirotv.com/news/15652809/detail.html
Merlyn: sure; anyone else want the ossman's email, just ask. I'm using private msgs to keep it off the public chat
cease: So David is back from California?
cease: When I talked to him on March 1st, he said he was going to LA the following week
cease: I would assume the April visit to NY is off
Elayne: Was he supposed to be in NY next month?
Elayne: April's a great time to visit NY, as you know, Cat.
cease: The Air America people were going to try and have him on a show then
cease: Yes, he told me he was going to NY in April.
cease: I sure do, El
Bunnyboy: Oh, crap. Paul Scofield died.
Dexter Fong: and Arthur C Clarke
Merlyn: yeah, I saw that too BB
Bunnyboy: Leukemia. Age 86.
jahgust: Thanks Merlyn!
cease: I thought Clarke was 90, the same age as my father
jahgust: Scofield died?! When was this?
Dexter Fong: Scofield was 86
llanwydd: I liked scofield as king lear
Merlyn: just today jahgust
Dexter Fong: Clarke was 90
cease: Don't think I know him
ah,clem: ...
Merlyn: or yesterday, really
Dexter Fong: Great actor Cat
Merlyn: I saw AC Clarke at the world science fiction convention in Brighton, England in 1979, I think
cease: Clarke had more good ideas every day than my father has had in his 90 years
Dexter Fong: lol cat
llanwydd: scofield played the title role in "the man for all seasons"
Dexter Fong: he's had more great ideas than all of us combined
cease: if only it were funny, dex
ah,clem: they named the "Clark Belt" after him as the theory was his
jahgust: Jeez! They say it does come in threes.
cease: ive gotta go get my sangria ingredients
Dexter Fong: Clem: Is that the belt that expands with your waistline
ah,clem: (where all geosyncronous sats live)
Elayne: Bon appetit, Cat..
Merlyn: the Ramans do everything in threes
Dexter Fong: geosynchonous rats?
Merlyn: that's so the rats can dance in sync
Dexter Fong: Rats in Outer space
llanwydd: I Remember Rama
Dexter Fong: I remember Soba

jahgust: Thats using the ol noodle!
Dexter Fong: But the equator is always moving

Dexter Fong: Don't tose the sats!
Merlyn: Don't tose me, bro!

cease: udon's better than soba

Dexter Fong: But Yuchi is better than both
llanwydd: I prefer semolina
cease: we clark is to blame for fox?
Merlyn: about the only grandmaster SF writer left is Bradbury
cease: so
Dexter Fong: Semolina shes-a mine, keepa you fork and spoon off a semolina
cease: if there were no bradbury, would there be a david ossman?
cease: certainly there'd be no How Time Flys
Dexter Fong: Ossman is Bradbury's son?
llanwydd: bradbury was always my favorite when I was a kid
llanwydd: The Illustrated Man was my favorite of his books
cease: literary son, yes
llanwydd: the movie was lousy though
Elayne: Mine too, Llan. He was the only one of the Big Four (Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke) who seemed to recognize the existence of women as complete beings.
Dexter Fong: Most movies of SF are llan
Elayne: Reading SF as a teenaged girl was quite an experience for me. Boy, did I feel like the Other!
Dr. Headphones: ok, dear friends, dave and katie are going for a walk, i'm off the phone, will resume the chat which is already in progress
jahgust: A few years back Bradbury did a video conference lecture from Calif. to the college I work for while he was eating his dinner! It was hilarious.
Elayne: WB, Dr. H
Merlyn: ok phones
Dr. Headphones: hello to those who entered whilst i was away
llanwydd: a notable exception, dex is 2001
llanwydd: also planet of the apes
Dexter Fong: And hello to those who were away when I entered
Bunnyboy: Anybody ever see CRACKING UP? It's on Comcast On Demand. Not the Jerry Lewis thang, but dreadful, nonetheless.
cease: my fave sf writer is a female.
Dr. Headphones: no comcast here
cease: oh the protor and bergman thing?
Dexter Fong: Ursala?
llanwydd: let me guess, cat. leguin?
cease: and harry shearer and lots of other funny folks. unfortunately not a funny flick
cease: you got it, llan
Bunnyboy: Ace Trucking Company, The Credibility Gap, Proctor & Bergman, all WASTED...and not in a good way.
Dave & Katie: I'm still here, just got of phone with dh
Dr. Headphones: asimov, clarke, bradbury, heinlein in that chronological order were tremendous influences on me as a high school student
Dexter Fong: I got it first
Merlyn: I saw it some years ago, I'll look for it again
cease: lol bub
Bunnyboy: Fee Waybill is kinda fun, though. Makes the most out of working in a ditch.
Merlyn: my thoughts too, BB
cease: bon
cease: i have it on tape somewhere. i choose not to look for it
llanwydd: never got around to reading heinlein
Dr. Headphones: llan: a great thinker. very libertarian in his political views and it shows in his writing
cease: yeah the tubes were a kind of firesign group
cease: they were great on sctv
Bunnyboy: There are about 2 sketches that work, the rest just blows.
Dr. Headphones: i thought everyone who read any SF had read "stranger in a strange land" by heinlein
Dexter Fong: Fishin' Musicians
jahgust: Wow haven't heard Fee Waybills name in a dogs age! Love The Tubes! Sorry just a bit off topic!
Bunnyboy: Particularly the linking (stinking?) material.
||||||||| Catherwood stomps in at 9:31 PM, dragging TXTweeny by the hair and asks "Can anyone vouch for this web surfer?"
Dexter Fong: jah: Hardly anything is off topic
Dexter Fong: here
Elayne: When I was in college Stranger in a Strange Land was rather mandatory reading.

Merlyn: http://www.thetubes.com/waybill.htm
Dexter Fong: Hey Tween

cease: hi tween
Dr. Headphones: tween: hail comrade
TXTweeny: Hi all
Dexter Fong: Good Friday off, Kend^?
jahgust: Good point!
ah,clem: hi tween
Bunnyboy: Fee Waybill makes Joey Ramone look attractive.
Dr. Headphones: any friday off work is good :)
TXTweeny: Is the elevator boy in your family, Dr H?
Dexter Fong: Holy Saturday, you're right Kend^
Dr. Headphones: time, not gime. where did that typo come from? (the index finger of the left hand, i suppose)
Bunnyboy: lo kend!
Dr. Headphones: elevator boy? i'm afraid i don't get that one
cease: except when they

TXTweeny: Index? Why, you're nothing but a bunch of cards! lol
Bunnyboy: Where's that caret? Somewhere on this keyboard...
Bunnyboy: Oh, here it is ^
Dexter Fong: A Bunnyboy should be able to find a caret
TXTweeny: Very sad about Ossman's son
Dr. Headphones: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Au (14 karet gold?)
Merlyn: giuliani = ^face
llanwydd: kend doesn't count the elevator boy
TXTweeny: He was my age
Merlyn: he was about 5 years younger than me
cease: as soon as i got here at 6, it was already being discussed, tween
Bunnyboy: Shearer and Lander pull off the "Rock Promoter" sketch, but it has no tag. Just...cuts to the suck , again.
llanwydd: my age too
TXTweeny: Strange to think that a member of the Firesign Theatre could have a kid our age
cease: i was 45 once
Merlyn: you mean the who, guess who, etc BB?
cease: my father, twice
Dr. Headphones: i barely remember 45; it was 10 years ago
Bunnyboy: And the Ace Trucking Company "Cafe" sketch probably killed, in front of an audience. On a set, not so much.
Merlyn: cross the international dateline of pancakes, cat?
TXTweeny kicks an American Woman out of bed for eating crackers
llanwydd: I remember 10 years ago like it was last week
Dr. Headphones: guess who reference, tween?
TXTweeny: Who?
Merlyn: 10 years ago was pre-W bush
Dexter Fong: I remeber '45..we waz a kicking crap outta them krauts and Nips and dropping A bombs like they waz nickels
cease: hard to believe the firesign did commercials for ihop
Bunnyboy: That's my perception of CRACKING UP: A semi-pro theatre dress rehearsal, bookended by home movies.
cease: i'm so old, i remember when it had good pancakes.
Merlyn: prewar bush?
cease: well said, bun.
Bunnyboy: Happy Birthday, Fred Rogers.
jahgust: I remember that three years from now I'll be able to say I remember being 43. How old am I again?
TXTweeny: I don't smoke
TXTweeny: Can you forgive me?
Dr. Headphones: if you're a pancake fan, go to bob evans and get the banana/pecan pancake stack with vanilla cream cheese between them and pecan syrup and real butter on top. yummy!
cease: too bad, tween
Merlyn: you can't be old again jahgust, just once through for everyone
TXTweeny: bad?
ah,clem: btw, happy spring everyone
cease: do all truckers know that kend or just you?
Dr. Headphones: yes, clem, the ol' vernal equinox
Bunnyboy: And, since it's the 70's, gratuitous nudity and WHOOOOOOA! drug references!
TXTweeny: Colour Me Bad
Dexter Fong: Outside the lines
cease: i havnet been able to enjoy pancakes in many years but the best i iefver had, as a kid, were at Sambos in Carmel, California.
TXTweeny: Ah, the Solstice
Dr. Headphones: cat: i did a road trip for work and they bought my breakfast a few weeks ago. there isn't a bob evans near me anywhere or i'd go on my own dime and eat those again
ah,clem: and the full moon
cease: ihop had good pankcakes in early 60s but were pretty much garbage by the end of the decade
TXTweeny: Mmmmm caramel
Merlyn: carmel on pancakes
TXTweeny: Nice haircut, clem lol
cease: maybve thats why trhey hired the firesign
jahgust: But what if iIam actually my own twin going backwards in time?
Dr. Headphones: i saw the almost full moon this morning on the way to work. it hung in the sky just ahead of me, teasing me as if i could catch it if i drove just a little bit faster
cease: very poetic
ah,clem: need to trim the paws
Dexter Fong: Lunatic
Dr. Headphones: sometimes the muse inspires me ;)
cease: speaking of lunatics, i jsut watched the nader flick this aft
Dexter Fong: And sometimes .....
Dr. Headphones: the nadir of flicks?
cease: mark green looks much younger on film than in person
Bunnyboy: brb. Bunnette, in the house!
TXTweeny: lol clem

Dr. Headphones: funny music story: today the lunch wagon girl had radio on, guns and roses version of old bob dylan song "knockin' on heaven's door" on. someone said guns and roses did the best version of it and i laughed at them and mentioned dylan. he (20 years old) said, "who is that?"
TXTweeny: Big Bend State Park? Isn't that the place in Texas that makes Lone Star beer?
cease: lol kend
TXTweeny: lol Ken
cease: spekaing of dylan, anyone seen the Seeger flick?
Elayne: I did, Cat.
TXTweeny: nope
Dexter Fong imagines Kend as that Indian on TV who slowly turns his head away while a tear trickles down his cheek

cease: i was profoundly moved by that, el.
Dr. Headphones: what this country needs...is a good five cent seegar
