*** Taliesn has joined #whosim
<Taliesn> *does a little tap dance to the lord of the rings music*
<Jacie> Hey Alex!
<Taliesn> how now, I have made it!
<Jacie> You're the first. So how has your week been?
<Taliesn> sorry about last time I got my wires totally screwed, I thought it was thursday morning after I'd been riding that morning then it was actually Friday morning and I found this out when Heather told me about 10 minutes after the sim had finished!!
<Taliesn> It's been bit hectic but good, you?
<Jacie> Frustrating. I've been on hold with my publisher.
<Taliesn> joy
<Taliesn> Hopefully I'll see Heather this arvo
<Jacie> Yeah. When my book does come out it'll be beautiful. I just hope I live that long.
<Jacie> Yes, I was gonna ask if you saw her yet. How far are you two from each other?
<Taliesn> bit of a way
<Taliesn> about half an hour drive or so
<Jacie> You guys are gonna meet up halfway?
<Taliesn> Heather hasn't got her license yet! It's kinda not too far from my horse, kinda. But I haven't the inclination to go up and see the horse now so I'm just going straight up there later, possibly I really need to get hold of Heather first 
<Jacie> Ah, what kind of horse do you have?
*** Jacie sets mode: +o Taliesn
<Taliesn> thoroughbred, he's an ex-racehorse. Rather disgraced himself as one though
<Jacie> Lost one too many races?
<Taliesn> he trotted past the finishing post on his last race
<Jacie> Oh well, I guess he's a rebellious sort.
<Jacie> What's his name?
<Taliesn> Pretty much, he does what he wants. Henry tis his name
<Jacie> Henry's a cool name for a horse. Is he friendly?
<Taliesn> He's a sweetie, he's really big but he's a gentle giant. We get on like a house on fire cos we have an understanding. He's good and I let him out for a gallop occasionally.
<Jacie> Cool. My neighbors have horses. I never learned to ride but they're nice to look at.
<Taliesn> i like doing that too
<Jacie> Do you live in a city area or country?
<Taliesn> cityish, he's agisted about half an hour from me.
<Taliesn> Just spoke to Heather, she should be on soon, hopefully.
<Jacie> Cool. I hope the others make it tonight.
<Taliesn> if they don't I may well head off to see the boy anyway
<Jacie> Oh, ask Heather if she has a copy of the last Harry Potter game. I misplaced mine.
<Taliesn> I hung up, she's coming on the net soon. She might not have it given she was on the other side of the continent for the last sim
<Jacie> Good point. David may have it. I gotta ask.
<Taliesn> otherwise we're a tad frelled
<Jacie> I'm sure someone has it.
<Taliesn> you can always go from memory
<Taliesn> 10heather's on
<Jacie> Cool.
<Taliesn> 10ooo green
<Jacie> brb
*** DocEight has joined #whosim
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o DocEight
<DocEight> Hey Jen.
<Taliesn> I think she's gone for coffee or something
<Jacie> Oh hey Heather! Sorry, was watching Wil & Grace
<Jacie> I wanted to see the punchline for the night.
<Jacie> You guys don't get that show down under, do you?
<Jacie> Heather, do you have the game log from the last Harry Potter game?
<DocEight> We Get Will and Grace. It's great fun.
<Taliesn> we do, I'm addicted to it. When I remember that it's on of course
<DocEight> On my other computer in Victoria, yeah
<Jacie> Cool. My mom loves it. Funny, cause we both hated Ellen.
<Jacie> Ah, ok. I'll try David. I misplaced mine and I'm worried I may have deleted it.
<Jacie> I seem to have 3 copies of the 1st game.
<Jacie> Do you remember how we ended the last game?
<DocEight> In the Library being surrounded by gnomes or something wasn't it?
<DocEight> or at least near the library
<Jacie> Ah gnomes. I knew it was some creature.
<Jacie> Who was telling me a gnome was not a monster because they were too dumb?
<Taliesn> depends on the gnome
<DocEight> Brb
<Jacie> I don't remember gnomes from the books, you know. Trolls, house elves & what are the creatures that run the bank?
<Taliesn> goblins
<Jacie> Yes goblins. But no gnomes. What were they in?
<Jacie> Oh, btw, I've now finished all 4 books. Took me a week, but I read them all.
<Taliesn> gnomes are in lots of things. Congrats, took me ages
<Jacie> Which was your favorite book?
<Taliesn> mmm I dunno, it's been a while since I read them. I quite like the prisoner of Azkaban for some reason
*** Dr10 has joined #whosim
<Jacie> Me too. That was my fav. Had me guessing thru the end.
<DocEight> <----Still hasn't read any Harry Potter
<Jacie> Hey Tuna! Welcome!

*** Taliesn has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<Jacie> Alex!
<Dr10> Orgtanizing and executing a ten day trip 1500 miles away for a group of 16 college students and four staff. It was easy, of course.
<Jacie> Oh my. Did you count all the bodies?
<Dr10> And quite fun. My people are awesome. Yes, we had to count after each rest room stop on the drives.
*** AlxKeegan has joined #whosim

<Dr10> We have the best crowd there is.
<TheBrig> Fighting a cold :-/
<Jacie> <Heather, is Alex still online?>
<Dr10> Anyone know about Ron showing up?
<Jacie> Awe, hope you feel better. I still have remnants of last month's cold.
<Dr10> I am healthy and sassy.
<Jacie> Hee hee, has it been that long Tuna? It's Rob.
<AlxKeegan> sorry to hear that, Cody
<Dr10> Err, right, Rob.
<TheBrig> first year I don't get a flu shot and I get a nasty cold (mainly nasty becaause I can't take anything for it)

<Dr10> ::reaches over and pours himself a hot cup of cocoa, sniffs it, smiles, and has a sip:::
<Jacie> I'm assuming unless he shows that he can't show.

<DWEos> <has it's ups and downs like most seasons>
<FearfulFred> < Interesting IMHO but A LOT of ple on the newsgroup think it's jumped the shark>
<DWEos> <I think Angel is consistently better than Buffy.
*** DWEos is now known as AlxKeegan
<JenK> Ok, drop the <> GAME OFFICIALLY PAUSED
<FearfulFred> <True and to me anyway it was just the opposite in Angel's first year>
<HermioneDW> <I was reading some reviews and it looks rather odd in places, I always prefer Angel. Mind you the whole Darla and baby thing is bizarre>
<AlxKeegan> conner is cute!
<JenK> So what was the ep about? Fill me in,
<HermioneDW> They've got more stuff to play with in Angel I think, it's all been done on Buffy
<FearfulFred> Wonder if he'll take the last name McCloud  ;-)
*** RonWeaslyShatogi is now known as AlishaShatogi
*** FearfulFred is now known as TheBrig
<AlxKeegan> except for marrying xander and anya, still need to get that done
<AlishaShatogi> might as well...
*** HermioneDW is now known as Taliesn
<Taliesn> hehe that could be good
<AlxKeegan> do you mind my telling Jen about the episode, Cody?
<AlxKeegan> Spoiler Warning!!
<TheBrig> np, it's not like they won't refer back to it before they show it again
<TheBrig> lol
<Taliesn> The wedding could be rather interesting
<AlxKeegan> well, let's see....Cordy was having a vision and went into a coma
<AlxKeegan> her spirit was running around, trying to communicate with the others, tell them about the vision
<AlxKeegan> the others found out that Cordy had been hiding how bad she was getting from the visions
<AlxKeegan> it was Cordy's birthday, too
<JenK> 21st?
<AlxKeegan> Phantom Dennis was waiting at home, with a party hat on and everything
<Taliesn> If in doubt do something bad to Cordy, just look at expecting
<TheBrig> LOL
<JenK> Oh cool, I floating party hat.
<TheBrig> Cordy has changed more than anyone but Willow IMHO
<AlxKeegan> fred and gunn went over to find out what cordy was hiding, phantom dennis opened the door, blew the party horn and threw rice
<AlxKeegan> well, confetti
<JenK> LOL. That must've been cool.
<AlxKeegan> anyway, gist was, Cordy's visions have been killing her
<AlxKeegan> Skip, the demon that Angel fought to rescue that guy when wolfram and hart was threatening cordy, showed up
<AlxKeegan> well, not demon
<AlxKeegan> I guess
<JenK> You know Cordy's dream guy turns out to be a dead guy ghost. Does her bidding and doesn't bore her with man talk.
<TheBrig> Pretty much thought that since season2 cliff
<AlxKeegan> phantom dennis is cool:-)
<Taliesn> I could really do with one of them
<TheBrig> Blast :-( You mean I missed the return of Skip too :-)
<AlxKeegan> skip told cordy that she wasn't dead yet, but she would be when the next vision hits, unless she went with him
<JenK> Me too. Well, as long as we had a strict no-spook rule.
<Taliesn> spook could be handy at times
<JenK> Oh Skip, the demon. I was thinking about that toad he was guarding. The one Lilah killed.
<AlxKeegan> so she went with him, he explained to her that humans aren't supposed to have the visions, it kills them everyone time
<AlxKeegan> eventually, I mean
<JenK> So she's gone?
<TheBrig> aha, thus half-demon Doyle
<AlxKeegan> he gave her a chance to restart her life, so she would become a tv start
<AlxKeegan> with her own show, Cordy, and everything
<JenK> tv star/
<AlxKeegan> but she still remembered things
<AlxKeegan> she saw how bad wes and angel were without her around
<JenK> "Cordy" that wacky comedy series about a cheerleader turned Girl Friday turned actress turned spook detective.
<AlxKeegan> angel got the demons when doyle died, and it eventually drove him nuts
<TheBrig> <<Flashes on Jimmy Stewart muttering "ZuZu's petals">
<AlxKeegan> visions
<AlxKeegan> that is
<AlxKeegan> and wes lost his arm fighting demons
<Taliesn> ouch
<JenK> And Buffy died. Oh wait that happened.
<AlxKeegan> Cordy comforted the nuts Angel, kissed him and took the visions back
<TheBrig> <Rogue demons? Sorry still one of my fav B/A jokes
<AlxKeegan> Skip told her that she was still going to die
<Taliesn> ooo they did kiss, this gets better and better
<JenK> But not yet, eh?
<AlxKeegan> Cordy said there had to be a loophole, cause she is meant to have the visions
<AlxKeegan> and it turned out, there was a loophole, cordy had to become half-demon
<Taliesn> yikes
<TheBrig> Hey, every birth certificate is a death warrent
<AlxKeegan> so she told skip to do it
<AlxKeegan> skip told her it was an honor being her guide
<JenK> She's half demon then?
<TheBrig> The only person who never died was Ezikiel
<AlxKeegan> and he did the thingy to her and she woke up in her body again
<JenK> Really? Never met him.
<AlxKeegan> and everyone came in to see she was okay
<AlxKeegan> and she had another vision, wasn't in any pain, and everyone is staring at her
<JenK> Does she turn green and get all bumpy now?
<AlxKeegan> nope, she was hovering 3 feet off the ground
<TheBrig> <<God took him to Heaven while still alive, used to win a lot of beers with that one ;-) >
<JenK> <LOL>
<AlxKeegan> so that's what will happen to cordy every time she has visions now
<JenK> She'll float?
<AlxKeegan> floating vision girl:-)
<Taliesn> mm levitation, good party trick
<JenK> Darn, I liked the skull splitting pain.
<AlxKeegan> yea, you would, Jen
<AlxKeegan> :-)
<JenK> Hey, I like dramatic scenes.
<AlxKeegan> you just wanted them to blow cordy's skull out and kill her
<AlxKeegan> we've had enough drama, time for something else:-)
<AlxKeegan> they'll be plenty of drama once they vampire hunter guy shows up again
<JenK> No, I just thought it made the visions seem more realistic. Like she could feel the pain of those she saw. It motivated her.
<JenK> But this floaty thing is just too superheroish.
<TheBrig> What if anything did they do about Conner?
<AlxKeegan> but she's already changed and doesn't need the motivation anymore
<AlxKeegan> it's spooky spiritual and not superheroish
<JenK> Superheroish to me.
<JenK> So what happened to Conner?
<AlxKeegan> well, that's cause you dont' read superhero comics
<Taliesn> they've probably now realised that having a baby on the show is so not alot of fun
<AlxKeegan> you'd know what real superheroes are
<AlxKeegan> I disagree
<TheBrig> IMHO it's not a superhero unless there's a costume ;-)
<AlxKeegan> conner is cute
<JenK> That's an oxymoron... "real superheroes".
<AlxKeegan> and he's not going to be the focus of every episode
<AlxKeegan> I said, read, not real
<JenK> Um, who takes care of him?
<AlxKeegan> oh, right
<Taliesn> they're unpredictable, they cry, they smell etc.
<TheBrig> Sort of like a Buffy season2 Johnathan?
<AlxKeegan> everyone taking care of him
<TheBrig> hehehe
<AlxKeegan> taking turns
<JenK> Obviously, it's not real if they don't take care of baby Conner constantly. Babies have a way of dominating any show.
<JenK> Or life.
<AlxKeegan> so, babies make for good comedy
<TheBrig> Lorne would be the perfect "Nanny" 
<JenK> And horror. Ever see a mother get up for a 2am feeding?
<AlxKeegan> I wouldn't worry too much about it
<JenK> Lorne, what is he doing now?
<JenK> No club to speak of.
<AlxKeegan> he's still living in the hotel
<TheBrig> He's lost his club again so he's free to be the nanny
<JenK> And what about that vampire hunter?
<AlxKeegan> we'll see him later, I'm sure, he's training people to help him hunt angel
<TheBrig> Selecting a team like he did before instead of taking someone else's demon hoard
<AlxKeegan> yep yep
<JenK> Hmm... so what did you think of the last Buffy?
<Taliesn> well peeps I've got to go see Heather and my horse soon so I'd better be off to get dressed etc.
<AlxKeegan> thought it was very interesting
<JenK> Have fun!
<AlxKeegan> bye bye, take care!
<TheBrig> Generally good but had a few things that kind of bugged me
<TheBrig> Night
<Taliesn> see you all next week, ta ta
<AlishaShatogi> Night.
*** AlishaShatogi has quit IRC (Quit: I need buffer space.)
<JenK> What bugged you?
*** Taliesn has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving)
<TheBrig> Having a concerned DFAc's investigetor labeled crazy was a bit off putting although not quite a s much as Spike's "Push ups"
<AlxKeegan> well, she may have been concerned, but she was also not willing to listen to bufyf
<JenK> Oh I thought that was funny. The DFAC, not Spike. The Spike thing is just gross.
<JenK> Course Buffy didn't put on a good show. "Oh, that's magic weed."
<TheBrig> From what she saw she did the responsible thing
<AlxKeegan> she made an instant assumption and was willing to take Dawn away based on one meeting
<AlxKeegan> I disagree
<AlxKeegan> people are too often willing to jump the gun on these things
<JenK> Anyone would have made the same assumptions. Remember, we know all that was explainable.
<AlxKeegan> not necessarily anyone
<TheBrig> If there's a doubt I think they should always go the way that is safe for the child but that's me, used to work for Dept of Human resources so I guess I'm biased
<AlxKeegan> and if it was a reasonable assumption, then it set up the scenario where buffy had to do something to scare off/remove the person
<JenK> Dawn mentioned Buffy getting her into another accident. Buffy was unemployed. Spike acted like the typical biker bad dude dealer boyfriend. Willow staying there when Buffy said no one was there. And the big thing being the "magic weed".
<AlxKeegan> but they don't always do that, they often go with whatever is convient instead of what's best for the child
<JenK> Sometimes DFAC do jump the gun, and sometimes they don't jump at all. It's an imperfect world.
<AlxKeegan> like taking away adopted children from good families and giving them back to weirdo parents, that's not what's best for the child
<JenK> The system is not perfect.
<AlxKeegan> anyway, if they were going to have the lady assume that, there was no way that Buffy could prove it wasn't so
<TheBrig> in this case Buffy "appeared" to be the ultimate weirdo "parent"
<AlxKeegan> so of course she had to do something to scare her away
<JenK> It was told so you'd not like the DFAC woman. But yes Buffy did act juvenile.
<AlxKeegan> I think they shouldn't have done it at all
<JenK> I still wonder how anyone would think Buffy is responsible for sis without a job or income.
<AlxKeegan> this isnt' a reality based show, you know
<TheBrig> Wonder if they're going to drag in the long missing Mr Summers?
<JenK> How the heck could she keep that house? 
<AlxKeegan> as long as the taxes are paid, no one cares
<JenK> Yeah, why isn't DFAC hunting down dear old dad.
<AlxKeegan> the house is paid for
<AlxKeegan> it's the taxes that are a pain
<JenK> Yeah but you need money for taxes, utilities, food, insurance, etc.
<AlxKeegan> which was paid for at first
<TheBrig> How could anyone not recognise Superman because he put on some horn rims? ;-) It's just a show
<AlxKeegan> they talked about this already, you know
<JenK> But they never settled it.
<JenK> Even Superman has a real job.
<AlxKeegan> they're not going to settle it, either, most likely
<JenK> Magnum P.I. had a job and was living off the good graces of another.
<AlxKeegan> it's not meant to be the focus of the program
<JenK> Angel has a detective agency.
<JenK> Yeah, but growing up entails earning a living.
<AlxKeegan> which doesn't earn money
<JenK> Unless you're on a soap opera and everyone just magically has lots of money.
<TheBrig> Touchy subject theree, I always wanted Magnum to turn out to be the real Robin Masters, but would they hear my thoughts? No! ;-)
<JenK> Angel Investigations pulls in money. Just most of it is off camera.
<AlxKeegan> they have to find buffy a job that doesn't interfere with being a Slayer
<AlxKeegan> no it doesn't
<AlxKeegan> not very often, anyway
<JenK> Hello, law enforcement?
<JenK> Guard.
<JenK> She'd be good at a lot of things.
<TheBrig> How much money does a vampire need? $5  in a bank account and pick up the interest every century or so
<AlxKeegan> got to go now, have to go pick up scrips and stuff
<JenK> Vampires generally don't plan ahead. They steal what they want.
<TheBrig> Take care David
<AlxKeegan> night Cody, Jen, see you all next week
<JenK> G'nite David!
*** AlxKeegan has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving)
<TheBrig> Not like they have big grocery bills or buy lots of clothing ;-)
<JenK> True.
<TheBrig> We're going to try for a D&C sim tomorrow if you are free?
<JenK> Well, I guess I should be going too. You gonna be here next week?
<JenK> Um, I dunno. I was planning on being around Saturday for a Time Vortex.
<TheBrig> I'll always will if at all possible
<TheBrig> cool
<JenK> You take care. Hope something makes you laugh this week.
<JenK> *poof*
