||||||||| 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 November 20, 2008 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood enters with Firebroiled close behind, mutters something about disrupting his 7:31 AM tree-stunting plans, and runs off to the anteroom.
Firebroiled: Yes, Friends, welcome to Pastor Flash’s our of Reckoning,
with Organ Leroy at his organ again,
and the Fifty-Voice St. Louis Aquarium Choir.
I’m Decon E. L. Mouse.

But, Dear Friends in these days of modern time,
when you can’t tell the AC’s from the DC’s,
well aren’t we all yearning for someone who can turn on a little stopping power?

Dear Friends, I mean a smokey glass.
Don’t you think I mean a lightning rod
with which to chase these spooks away?
Don’t you know I mean our own Pastor Rod Flash!

He’s been up for a week,

but he’s coming down!

Firebroiled: Dex, you're already DOWN!
||||||||| Around 7:32 AM, Firebroiled walks off into the sunset...
||||||||| ah,clem enters at 8:28 PM as Catherwood takes their hat and goat and scurries off to the Hat Pack Annex.
||||||||| New CNI streaming notice: '"a few minutes with FireSign Theatre" at about 9 eastern time'
||||||||| Catherwood says "8:28 PM, time for SOMEONE to leave!", grabs ah,clem by the collar and gives 'em the old bum's rush out the door
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood snorts derisively: "8:59 PM and late as usual, it's Dexter Fong, just back from New York."
Dexter Fong: Oh Dear, guess it's up to me to scroll-off Firebroiled
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, November 20, 2008 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!"
Dexter Fong wonders why Firebroiled never sticks around
||||||||| Outside, the 9:02 PM bus from Brooklyn pulls away, leaving ah,clem coughing in a cloud of diesel fumes.
ah,clem: hi Dex
Dexter Fong: Hi there Clem, glad to see you operating again
ah,clem: hi,was just very tired last week
Dexter Fong: Hi there clem, glad to see you operating again

Dexter Fong: Glad your not so tired then =))
Dexter Fong: Wonder how Firebroiled knew I'd be down first
||||||||| 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 llanwydd falls out at 9:04 PM.

Dexter Fong: Another BTW Cat: De Vinci show has switched from CBS to ABC here in the big apple

Dexter Fong: Is your name danny Catherwood
||||||||| Catherwood walks right past Dexter Fong
cease: if hartmann's investigation is true, i wonder why it hasnt been more widely covered?
cease: still beinmg covered up, as he asserts?
Dexter Fong: Cat: I'm not at liberty to respond
AtomicRoboTween: You want a conspiracy? How about McCain shosing Palin because he didn't want to inherit Bush's mess...

cease: you don't know jack, benny goodman
Dexter Fong: It didn't work in 1965 either
Dexter Fong: Herro Woodlow
llanwydd: Hey Woody 1!
Woody 1: Ahhh. So You're still here. Just as I expected. Hi there.
Dexter Fong: RoboTween, how like a re-run, hear your father RotoNoto
Woody 1: How are things in Your neck of the way-woods?
cease: The coup was planned to take place on 1st December, 1963. Waldron believes that Carlos Marcello, Santo Trafficante and Johnny Roselli discovered details of the plot, and cite numerous government documents where the mobsters' associates talked about the coup plan. The three mob bosses were extremely angry with the attempts by Robert Kennedy to have them deported or sent to prison. By linking Kennedy's death to the top secret coup plan, the Mafia chiefs could prevent a thorough investigation. Using trusted hitmen with proven experience, the Mafia bosses first tried to kill Kennedy in Chicago (home of Roselli's Chicago Mafia family) on November 2, 1963, then tried again in Trafficante's base of Tampa, Florida, on November 18, before finally succeeding in Dallas, which Marcello controlled. T
cease: hi woody
AtomicRoboTween: lol Dex
cease: what's happening in woodland?
Woody 1: Hey cease.

Dexter Fong: afk
llanwydd: not too familiar with chomsky
cease: when they start prosectuitng the assasinators of allende, lumumba, etc,
Woody 1: Woodland is artificially real. Ersats related.
Woody 1: Wow. I missed a good conversation here..
cease: indeed, dex. but hartmann says he worked 20 years on this book uncovering stuff and interviewing people and although i dont like him personally, i doubt he'd make this shit up
cease: there is a firesign play with a wooden character. Thge Great Paisely Whale, or Moby Budd
cease: you have a poniot about "heavy' dex

Woody 1: Hey Poop. Heh huh.
Dexter Fong: Cat: Re: JFK assaination..It's been so many years...Jack ruby was a mob guy, no dout...but with death of Lee harvey...no chance of discovering total truth...and it's not that I son't care, it's just that i don't care any longer

AtomicRoboTween: Dylan's "Hurricane"?
Dexter Fong: Well Cat; I think it's your responsibility to get us all stoned

Principalpoop: no no it was the boxer, simon and garfinkle
Dexter Fong: Yep Tween

Bambi: hello Dear Friends
Dexter Fong: Davgey Moore was killed because he knew the truth about the JFK assasination

Principalpoop: both JFK and Elvis are still alive

Dexter Fong: And so is Joe Hill
Principalpoop: ouch poor bambi, glad you feel better

Dexter Fong: I dreamt I saw Joe Hill last night alive as Jimmy Hoffa
H Stones: Yo Tweenster
H Stones: I always leave the porch light on in case Jimmy comes home

AtomicRoboTween: I find it's better with a good cheese sauce, Bambi
Dexter Fong: AtomicRoto Tweenster
Principalpoop: a link for you tween, maybe you too stones, http://www.youtube.com/user/chris21125150
cease: my respiratory system is fragile at best of times
Bambi: that or chicken soup Tween LOL
Woody 1: Just had it. Days and weeks of coughing.
Dexter Fong: Think it has to do with enormous amount of reefer?
Principalpoop: i never get bronchitus, too much tar and nicotine in there for any virus or bacteria to live...
Bambi: Clem got me a good expectorant which really helped
llanwydd: I find that cough medicine doesn't help
llanwydd: but sometimes a long hot shower does
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 10 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
Bambi: just had to run its course ... viral
Bambi: totally sucks while you have it
Woody 1: Reefer. I must sneek some into my lungs any minute.
cease: currently my nose feels like a firesign prop
Dexter Fong thinks that poop just might be a smoker...a toker....a midnight jocker
||||||||| Elayne waltzes in at 10:01 PM carrying an obsidian door knocker.
Principalpoop: glad you feel better
AtomicRoboTween: One can always expect help from ah, clem

Principalpoop: my friend, what happened to your nose?
Woody 1: Anybody see the different Firesigns on You Tube?
Dexter Fong: Hey elayne

AtomicRoboTween: You had cospetic surgery, cease? entering the Witness Protection Program?
Elayne: Not me, Woody, do you have any links?
cease: not intentioanally, tween.
AtomicRoboTween: cosmetic
H Stones: small amount of reefer was beloved of victorians for easing bronchitis and as an expectorant, too much reefer on the other hand caused bronchitis
cease: had a black growth on my nose starting end of august and wanted it biopsied which they're ddoing now
||||||||| Woody 1 leaves to catch the 10:03 PM train to Funfun Town.
cease: operatio surprisingly painful
AtomicRoboTween: Wha hoppened, cease?
||||||||| 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 Woody 1 falls out at 10:03 PM.
Principalpoop: wb woody
Elayne: Hope the results come out okay, Cat.
Principalpoop: do you want positive or negative?

H Stones: that type is rare over here because we dont get enough sunlight to help it along
Woody 1: Back from Funtown. It was a bore. Too many beaners and non-non achievers
AtomicRoboTween: all that sunbathing on Victoria Island, no doubt
cease: people of my glaring whiteness should have nothing to do with the sun
cease: thanks, all
Dexter Fong: I had a skin cancer...had it excised..or maybe exorcised,
cease: i try and wear a hat al lthe time but in the winter i need a tuque which doesnt cover my face
AtomicRoboTween: not all that uncommon these days, unfortunately
Dexter Fong: Try a Fedora Cat
H Stones: true Tween
Principalpoop: more moles and such show up with the years, i used to know the back of my hand, not anymore
Dexter Fong: Or a snappy Borsalino

Dexter Fong: L8ter Woody
Bambi: have a great night Woody and Mrs
cease: i love the title, el
||||||||| Woody 1 rushes out the back door as Mayor P'nisnose blasts through the front door holding a shotgun and shouting "Where's Woody 1?! It's 10:08 PM and my ballot boxes haven't been stuffed yet!"
llanwydd: nite woody!
Elayne: It's a sequel to a series of comedy-fantasy novels called "Sir Apropos of Nothing," written by our friend Peter David.
Elayne: Bye Woody!
Principalpoop: puns are the lowest form of something or other
Elayne: I highly recommend perusing the novels first (which can all be found online as PDFs, Robin discovered).
cease: sounds like something robin could really get into, el
Dexter Fong: Marspial?
Dexter Fong: Marsupial?
Elayne: But you don't have to read them to be able to follow the comic.
H Stones: no poop, they are the next lowest, the lowest are the people that make them

Elayne: Cat, it really is close to his dream project so far, but it's a lot of work.

cease: for one as food obssesed as i, i never watch the food network.
cease: id rather read of food than see pix and deal with than kind of packaging
Dexter Fong: Cat: Daniel Boulet is not well thought of in NYC, maybe not by foodies but by people in the neighborhoods he operates in...he's kind of a bastard
cease: i did watch one food show b4 we went to italy, mario eats italy. learned a lot and wnat to go top his restuarnt in nyc
cease: at least one of them. seems s fun guy, maybe food is fun too
cease: only reason i watched the show is cuz we were going to italy

Dexter Fong: Mario?
cease: batalik yes
Dexter Fong: or Bouley
cease: and tht jean-georges dude is opening up here in jan i think
Dexter Fong: Well, I put off watching Iron Chef for a long time beause it's nighly :entertaining' etc but watching great chefs come up with 5 dishes from appetizer to desert using a particular item they'd no idea of has proved to be both entertaining and educational
Dexter Fong: that's fie dishes from inception to plating in one hour
Dexter Fong: five
cease: i was away from keyboard
cease: i just want to eat the best food i can eat before i die
Dexter Fong: Ketchup them
Dexter Fong: Fast Food?

Dexter Fong: A double jaundice strike
cease: i gotta learn how to make or hire someone to make really good veg/fruit stuff
Dexter Fong: Cat: C'mon now...stretch it out....it doesn't get any better but you have more patience at my age =_))
cease: fumio cooks meat really well but we dont eat it very much
cease: my goal at this point in time is to find the best food and that means when a meal is really poor, i have gambled a lot emotionally on it
cease: so its worse than if i wasnt expecting it to be good
Dexter Fong: If you don't eat a lot of meat, all reet! no...if you don't, then you're menu gets a little more problamatic
cease: so i tolerate bad food less and less, and get depressed about it. not good
cease: i eat mostly fish/seafood, seriously and interestingly cooked No raw allowed near me.
cease: crab cannelon last night, for example
cease: some rather lousy mushrom creations at an ujpscale italian place, its on my blog
Dexter Fong: There's some bad food admittedly but it does keep you alive sop that you can look forward to a better meal
cease: crabv can is frozen, from store, not restaurant. and much better
cease: my childhood was constant bad food so i expected it
cease: yes, food to me meant stayhing alive, not enjoying anything
Dexter Fong: Cat: +))
cease: fumiyo is like that now.
Dexter Fong: Depressed?
cease: our chemistries change over our lifetimes, as you know better than we
cease: i was at the end of the meal , yes. it was so much less than i expected
Principalpoop: back maybe
cease: but i did learn of an eating club, there at the smae time as us, that i htink i 'll be haning out wtith in the future
Principalpoop: what are we talking about?
cease: hi hpop

Principalpoop: the atmosphere is important too
cease: we have brand new ktichen so i am totally inspired to use the fancy new appliances
Dexter Fong: What is better? Is it originality, presentation, or taste?
cease: make good things
cease: it has to taste good
Principalpoop: from the looks of things, you are into micro-taste events
Dexter Fong: *ALL* cuisines have their comfort foods
cease: tapas was a revelation to me
Dexter Fong: Adn those usually taste really good, but it's nice to look for new tastes
cease: and i revelled in japannese bar food for decades
Principalpoop: i have no palate, just give me more salt or horseradish or catsup, everything tastes good
cease: yes new is a constant search
cease: my wife complains that mine has grown too sophisticated to go out to dinner with
cease: thaknfully we've had a lot of guests recently meaning she's been cooking alot
Dexter Fong: Tapas is very interesting,,,lottsa veggies]lol Cat: I IMAGINE SHE"S RIGHT +)))))
Principalpoop: send her here cat lol

cease: considering ingredients, of course
Principalpoop: oops, she spoiled you with fine dining, i misunderstood
||||||||| Catherwood walks in wearing his pyjamas, yawns, and mumbles "It's midnight here in New York city"...then he falls over and starts snoring loudly..
cease: there seemed to be a time when i could not find good scallops in vancouver.
Dexter Fong: I like to hit the greenmarket early, then head for central park where we butcher the sheep and tourists
cease: didnt mean they werent on the menu, just no one complained. to me they were terrible
cease: i'll try and avoid hyour cleaver when i'm there, dex
Principalpoop: try to find some roanoke scallops
Principalpoop: just try lol
Dexter Fong: Cat: Don't worry, we would kill as atasty a tourist as you all at once
cease: maybe i have to go to roanoak to get them

Dexter Fong: I think you can substitute any oyster for a raonoke Oyser
cease: i'm, getting to know some of the local chefs now, that should help
Principalpoop: i tried the lobster pieces at long john silvers, they have a lot of nerve
