catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi Heidi and Simon
  hert0661isme says, How are people?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I'm on Yahoo, which is messin gup my 
typing
catlady_de_los_angeles says, worse than it usually is
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I'm on Yahoo because Cheetah said I had 
no
catlady_de_los_angeles says, club memberships
  hert0661isme says, Cheeta can be annoying at times
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and changed my starting room to Books 
andLIteratire
catlady_de_los_angeles says, ANy hints on how I can get back on good 
terms with
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Chettah
catlady_de_los_angeles says, ?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, (so I can play with macros again?)
  hert0661isme says, give it a good kicking?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, okay, i log off here to try there
  hert0661isme says, keep trying - it takes me ages to get in at 
times!
catlady_de_los_angeles leaves
catlady_de_los_angeles enters
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, I seem to be here okay now
heiditandy is back.
€  heiditandy says, Hi - had to go get my son into a swing. His great 
grandma is outside with him...
siriusgeologist enters
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Carole
  hert0661isme says, Hello
€  heiditandy says, how is everyone this afternoon?
siriusgeologist says, hey there
siriusgeologist says, doing well...its quiet...kids are either out of 
the house or asleep! yay!
  hert0661isme says, I am fine - meant to be working
  hert0661isme says, and would say that it is evening
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, egroups seems to be down, so I can't 
catch on our posts
€  heiditandy says, carole -how did you pull that off?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, where i am, it is just BARELY afternoon
  hert0661isme says, e-groups is working for me
siriusgeologist says, pure luck...and a nice neighbor!
  hert0661isme says, it was down when I got up today - maintainence 
or something
siriusgeologist says, I can receive mail but not send...but its not 
an egroup problem
€  heiditandy says, I had egroups problems this morning - some emails 
had been delivered BUT I couldn't get on to see that Starling sketch 
of Harry Draco & Lupin (who had obviously been taking Giles Polyjuice 
Potion that way)
siriusgeologist says, do you like starlings vision of the characters?
€  heiditandy says, Draco, yes, and harry looks more or less like 
what I'm used to seeing on the covers of the book.
€  heiditandy says, But in my mind, sirius looks VERY different from 
how she draws him. I can't really put my finger on how, except that I 
think his hair is a little wavy-ish.
€  heiditandy says, What do you think?
siriusgeologist says, Draco is growinng on me, I think she has 
talent, but I don't see Harry that way and definitely not the gals
siriusgeologist says, AS for Sirius...Yeah he has not soi straight 
hair and he looks too much like Draco!
  hert0661isme says, Sirius looks like one of the people in the 
picture of The Hogwarts Four (the one on the left - I assume it is 
Godric)
siriusgeologist says, but to each their own and  its better than I 
could do
€  heiditandy says, I haven't spent enough time thinking about what 
Ginny looks like, and I always just see hermione (young) as the way 
she is on the PoA cover, and older, like Minnie Driver in Grosse 
Point Blank
siriusgeologist says, I'll have to look at that pic again...
siriusgeologist says, Its the hair and the noses on the gals that bug 
me...big hair and barbie noses...shiver
  hert0661isme says, They look ok - but I imagine Hermione ot have 
shorter and more curly hair
siriusgeologist says, have any of you read Pegs book...the wild swans?
siriusgeologist says, I just read it this week
  hert0661isme says, No - have the otehr one on order
  hert0661isme says, may put WS on order as well soon
siriusgeologist says, Do definitely it is a better book than 
EHR...its phenomenal!
  hert0661isme says, I imagine Hermione to have hair just like my 
next door neighbour (not that this helps you much as none of you know 
her)
€  heiditandy says, goptta go - baby is done with the swing...
heiditandy leaves
  
Stuck at the office?  Messenger lets you chat through firewalls!  
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html

siriusgeologist says, see ya heidi
  hert0661isme says, I am putting an order online in the next day or 
so - have started Pullman's series and will get the second and third 
in that (ordring many books together reduces postage
siriusgeologist says, I liked EHR, but I am captivated by the wild 
swans....
catlady_de_los_angeles is away (Auto-Away)
catlady_de_los_angeles is back.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I'm not really away
  hert0661isme says, Continuing my comment about my neighbour - she 
had her hair dried staight on Friday (long story involving trainee 
hair dressers) and I can now understand how Harry and Ro did not 
recognize Hermione at the Yule Ball!
siriusgeologist says, hehehehe...its amzing what a new hairdo can do
siriusgeologist says, amazing...not amzing
  hert0661isme says, It is one major shook to see someone who has 
always had very curly / frizzy hair to have what becomes much longer 
striaght hair
siriusgeologist says, yeah you probably add a couple of inches just 
by straightening
  hert0661isme says, Thats about right
  hert0661isme says, I saw her wander into the lecture theathre and 
thought right clothes - wrong face (it was amazing the difference it 
makes to the how the face looks)
  hert0661isme says, Managed to get photos before she went out in the 
rain and it started to go curly again!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Nowdays hair is supposed to be 
*completely* straight. Any wave to it is considered a messiness
  hert0661isme says, I better not mention that - she would get annoyed
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Quite a contrast to my youth, when 
everyone curlered or permed their hair to get some wave in it
  hert0661isme says, she spent most of the lectures playing with the 
hair as it felt so different!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, FarrahFawcett-Majors curls
hert0661isme This chat will be saved and posted on the E-group: 
http://www.egroups.com/group/HPforGrownupsChatScripts
siriusgeologist says, I'm going to go type up a scene I wrote for 
ASA...I'll be back later if I can
  hert0661isme says, bye, possibly for only a while
You tell jenna_jamison_ddd_xxx Will be back later
flying_ford_anglia enters
  hert0661isme says, hello
flying_ford_anglia says, Hello - quiet tonight?
flying_ford_anglia says, ...and the message board is quiet for a 
change.
  hert0661isme says, Carole is writing/typing some ASA
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Neil, yes quiet. Carole dropped in 
to say she was leaving to type up a scene for ASA 
  hert0661isme says, I am sort of working while chatting
  hert0661isme says, dee is out
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm about two chpaters behind on that at the 
moment...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, egroups was down when I tried to check 
it before entering chat
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, So there is no one to hit Neil with a 
feather pillow
  hert0661isme says, e-groups was down this morning (uk time)
  hert0661isme says, I have not really had time to respond to 
messages recently
flying_ford_anglia says, No, I've been busy too..
  hert0661isme says, I have been either working, FAQing, reading or 
out
flying_ford_anglia says, Jim is trying to get in...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Yes. How much trouble did you have 
getting in?
flying_ford_anglia says, I miss Dee's bonking
  hert0661isme says, I have finally finished with Yahoo
flying_ford_anglia says, I had to try twice... not too bad
  hert0661isme says, I went through the last of teh messages there a 
few days ago - now just have to talk e-groups!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Dee's bonking. I love the double 
entendre, because nowdays people often use the word 'bonking' when 
they mean 'boinking'
flying_ford_anglia says, I look at the Yahoo Board sometimes and 
wonder why people  ignore the message about us moving.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Cheetah chat told me that I don't have 
any club memberships the first time I tried to day
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, So I went by Yahoo and out again and 
in by Cheetash whic worked that time
  hert0661isme says, It was up to 580 members at last count (and I am 
two of them!)
flying_ford_anglia says, When I get a new computer, I'll try Cheetah 
chat...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Some people have posted on teh Yahoo 
board that they want to be part of an e-mail list which is very low-
activity.
  hert0661isme says, I have been having terrible computer probs 
recently
  hert0661isme says, ours is (at the moment)
flying_ford_anglia says, I saw those points, but there is hardly any 
activity...
  hert0661isme says, PoU, however, is getting very high volume!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, zero activty is a form of low activity
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I wish I had time to join PoU list
flying_ford_anglia says, Now there are several fanfics to discuss
  hert0661isme says, and the fanart
  hert0661isme says, i dont really have time to read most of the 
messages!
  hert0661isme says, that is on PoU!
  hert0661isme says, prefer to spend the time reading books or fanfic
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm less inclined to post iF i haven't read 
everything, in case i repeat something...so I don't post at all  
  
It's super!  Thanks for downloading! 
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html

  catlady_de_los_angeles says, There seem to be a lot of people in 
the world who don't care if they repeat some other post
flying_ford_anglia says, I have a stack of books to read (plus re-
reading HP) so thE FAQs are getting in the way a bit.  Posting 
messages  comes third at the moment.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, In some cases, that is nice -- it is 
nice when I see that a whole bunch of people agree with my idea
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I think the people who post humor 
don't get bored by endless replys that just say LOL and ROTFL
  hert0661isme says, that is what I find so odd about HPforGU - you 
very rarely get lots of 'yed I agree with that' post
flying_ford_anglia says, At least some people say - 'sorry if this 
has been discussed...'
  hert0661isme says, the FAQ's are taking up most of my spare time at 
the moment!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I see a certain amount of what looks 
like a person goes through all their accumulated e-mail and hits 
REPLY as soon as they think of something, 
  hert0661isme says, I try to read all the posts first
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, not waiting to read the rest of the 
inbox to see if someone else already replied
  hert0661isme says, I have not read a HP book in months!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, and then going back to the chosen 
message if not
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, When Lynn at work returned PoA to me 
(I lent it to her son via her and he read it in like 2 or 3 days, 
which I think is impressive for a child)
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I read most of it backwards 
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, even tho I was supposed to be working, 
I couldn't resist the temptation
flying_ford_anglia says, It seems like common sense to see if someone 
has answered a 'question' post...
  hert0661isme says, I have four books on the go at the moment not to 
mention fanfic!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I was checking sme chronology of the 
Quidditch matches on behalf os a story's aboaut Cho's injury and 
recovery
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I might not never finish that story 
because I already think readers would find it boring
flying_ford_anglia says, I don't have time to read... I got a copy of 
The Wild Swans last week... I think I'll read it ovEr Xmas.

  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi! You ginally got in!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Oh, you didn't
  hert0661isme says, great numbering on my prob sheet this week - 
2.2.1 followed by 2.2.5
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil, read on mass transit?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, simon, the minus sign is a typo?
  hert0661isme says, I am going to put WS on order in the next few 
days - hopefully I will have time to read it once term ends (two 
weeks time)
flying_ford_anglia says, Simon - eh?
  hert0661isme says, the minus sign is a hyphen!
flying_ford_anglia says, Catlady - eh?
  hert0661isme says, I was pointing out my sheet went from Q2.2.1 to 
Q2.2.5 with nothing else inbetween
siriusgeologist says, I'm back for a bit...definitely read wils swans 
it is great...I read it this week and am rereading it again!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, oh, you didn't mean a jump of 4.4.4 
from neg to pos
flying_ford_anglia says, Your sheet?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, he's doing his homework while chatting
  hert0661isme says, Spectral Theroy and Functional Calculus
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, he is young and flexible and can multi-
task
jamesf991 enters
  hert0661isme says, one of three pieces of work due in soon!
siriusgeologist says, sounds like fun
flying_ford_anglia says, I read the blurb and it looked 
tempting...but I want to read it when i have some space
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Spectral Theory: ghosts?
  hert0661isme says, hence the four books
siriusgeologist says, really!
  hert0661isme says, no - more towards quantum theory
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Is it physics or math?
flying_ford_anglia says, Jim!  Are you here?
  hert0661isme says, maths - I do NOT do physics
jamesf991 says, Hi.  Made it.  My browser wants to crash now.
flying_ford_anglia says, That's dead brainy stuff - hmmmm
  hert0661isme says, it has some mathematical physics application but 
I am studing it from the pure mathematics side
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Jim, glad you finally made it.,
  hert0661isme says, hello Jim]
  hert0661isme says, I can actually do some this week
flying_ford_anglia says, I can pretend to be doing about ten things 
at once... 
jamesf991 says, Hi Catlady.  I see you're interested in going to 
England for the premier of PS
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, when I had to take the entry-level 
physics and calculus (I am NO GOOD at ether of them) I couldn't tell 
that Physics is anything but a branch of Math 
  hert0661isme says, have done three out of seven questions   
flying_ford_anglia says, Great for adding up your shopping bill  
  hert0661isme says, if you do higher level maths you soon see how 
different pure maths can get
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Jim, I am interested in going to 
England with nice companions from this list
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, November seemed to be a good time for 
me , except if there are hurricanes 
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, the movie premiere is just a co-
incidence 
jamesf991 says, I'm trying to convince my wife that England is nice 
this time of year.
  hert0661isme says, I annoy lots of the physicists and chemists 
around here by calling them appled mathematicians!
  hert0661isme says, it isnt!
  hert0661isme says, it keeps raining!
jamesf991 says, It was beautiful in late November 1989
flying_ford_anglia says, November is good...
  hert0661isme says, that s enough of this sheet - will hand it in as 
it is!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Which is worse, rain (doesn't it 
ALWAYS rain in Britain except when snowing?) or huge crowsd of fellow 
tourists?
flying_ford_anglia says, If you want the UK with no rain, the odds 
are against it.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Simon, 3 out of 7 is enough for this 
sheet?
flying_ford_anglia says, Tourists are annoying unless you are one in 
another country, in which case the locals are annoying.
flying_ford_anglia says, Rain is lovely.  I hate the sun.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil: I HATE crowds. When under stress 
(which is most of the time), I get panic attacks from being in a crowd
flying_ford_anglia says, ....and now, I'll clamber back into my 
coffin.
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm a bit claustrophobic...
  hert0661isme says, I have handed 4/7, 0/7, 2/4, 1/4, 0/6 questions 
this term for this subject - so I consider this good going (that 
means 4 out of 7 in the first week, 0 out of 7 in the second, etc.) 
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Jim, I was gettting the feeling that I 
was the only person SERIOUS about an HP tour -- it seems like 
everyone else has discovered that they either don't have the time or 
don't have the money
flying_ford_anglia says, doesn't sound too good...
  hert0661isme says, I am in no obligation to hand in any work
  hert0661isme says, I just have to turn up and do the exams (entered 
two dats ago)
jamesf991 says, Sigh.  It's snowing here.  North Carolina.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, neil: don't you get claustrophobic in 
a COFFIN?
flying_ford_anglia says, You may be right Rita - in my case, time is 
the problem...
  hert0661isme says, the work during the terms is for my benifit in 
learning the stuff - it is up to me as to how much I do
flying_ford_anglia says, I have a tardis-style coffin.
  hert0661isme says, also the first time I did nothing was the week I 
was ill!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, So I started thinking, should I hunt 
up a professional travel agent among the members of LASFS
  hert0661isme says, LASFS?
flying_ford_anglia says, aka: my flat.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Los Angeles Science Fiction Society
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, and give himer my suggested itinerary 
so heesh can package a tour for HP fans among the general public?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Not that I want to GO on a tour with 
JUS ANYONE
  hert0661isme says, sounds ok - how would it affect the uk people?
  hert0661isme says, I have done more work for the other two subjects 
in previous weeks (nothing as yet this week - but have longer until 
it is due in for them)
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Probably the UK people would have to 
package their own day trips or something
jamesf991 says, Actually, I'm not too keen on the whole HP itnerary 
thing.  I'd like to visit England again and do touristy things.  I 
saw Windsor before it burned.
jamesf991 says, November was a good time, and the tickets were cheap.
  hert0661isme says, Windsor is meant to be quite good again now
flying_ford_anglia says, I mentioned to my PA that we might be doing 
an HP tour and she said (joking): "I look forward to organising that!"
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, PA?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Personal Assisstant, like celebrities 
have?
flying_ford_anglia says, Yes.  More a secretary though.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, One of Diane Lee's daughters is 
Personal Assisstant to Jason ALexander
  
Yahoo! Chat client is ready for primetime!  
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html

flying_ford_anglia says, I'm not like Dave though - i don't ask her 
to type up my HP messages!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Oh, I think we hit another language 
difference -- I suspect you-uns sayd Personal Assistant where we-uns 
say Administrative Assistant
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I wonder why person with edress of 
Elias has name of Dave.
jamesf991 says, My company has TSAs and PSAs (depending whether they 
have a degree).  No secretaries.
flying_ford_anglia says, Possibly.  Admin Assistant is quite a junior 
position here
flying_ford_anglia says, Jackie is a PA/Administrator to be precise.
flying_ford_anglia says, Basically, she writes in my diary and I 
ignore it...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, my bureaucracy (it's like Civil 
Service) has a hierarchy of Admin Aide, Admin Asst, Admin Analyst and 
Sr Admin Analyst
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, there is a separate whole hierarchy of 
secretarial titles
jamesf991 says, Has anyone ever been to Burrow Farm near Exeter?  I 
suspect Rowling drew on the name for "The Burrow" where the Weasleys 
live.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, which I believe culminates in the 
quite powerful Senior Executive Secretary, who supervises up to a 
dozen other secraetaries
jamesf991 says, Just down the road from Stokes Hill.
flying_ford_anglia says, American terms are confusing.  Most of the 
people I deal with are Presidents, Vice Presidents and so 
on....sounds very grand.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, When that map with Burrow Farm was 
posted, I wondered very much if it were a hoax
  hert0661isme says, No - it is far too far for me to travel! (so t 
must only be an hour drive from Dorset but I do not have a car and 
public transport is crap down there)
jamesf991 says, No hoax.  They're both there.  As is Chudleigh.
flying_ford_anglia says, Jim is trying to get us back on topic!  I've 
never been near Exeter
  hert0661isme says, I have, but not for a few years
flying_ford_anglia says, JKR was inspired by town place names.  I 
think Snape is after Snape Maltings...
  hert0661isme says, on topic? us?
  hert0661isme says, I have heard of that. Where is it?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I suspect that Burrow Farm doesn't 
look at all like The Burrow and the people at Burrow Farm never even 
read HP and won't appreciate tourists coming to gawk at them
flying_ford_anglia says, At least we haven't mentioned Florida  
  hert0661isme says, Suffolk? If so I went on holiday near there?
jamesf991 says, Nice web site.  I might stay at the B&B. I'd like to 
visit the West.  See some pirates at Penzance, etc.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, except for you, Neil
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm not sure of the location, to be 
honest... Norfolk?
  hert0661isme says, The president candiadate at my college got 
RONed - he upset lots of people in hustings!
siriusgeologist leaves
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I went to a gazetteer website of 
Britain to search for Snape and it turned up two towns of that name
flying_ford_anglia says, I know - aren't I contrary?
  hert0661isme says, I think I visited over the summer - I was on 
holiday in SUffolk for a week
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, One was in the north -- I'm trying to 
remember, York or Northumbeland or ?
  hert0661isme says, about the time I got the inspirations for my H/H 
comments!
flying_ford_anglia says, Oh yes - the camping trip?
  hert0661isme says, one of them
  hert0661isme says, I went on three
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Harry Hedwig comments?
  hert0661isme says, malvern and devizes being the other two
flying_ford_anglia says, That's too much time outside...
  hert0661isme says, those are the ones!
  hert0661isme says, it was only 14 days in total
flying_ford_anglia says, Devizes is a great name.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, were there owls on your camping trip?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, charming owls whom you wanted to marry?
  hert0661isme says, there were some nearby - heard them hooting
  hert0661isme says, No! It just came about by me thinking of other 
possibilities for Harry and ending up selecting one of the oddest!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Jim -- what nice web site? Burrow Farm 
has a web site?
jamesf991 says, Yep.  I did a Google search.  Some of the buildings 
do look a little like the HP Burrow.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, H/Mrs Norris would be odder -- she has 
a nasty personality and a curent relationshp
flying_ford_anglia says, The brother of a friend of mine was in 
japan, and says there's a book coming out of all tHE HP covers  
worldwide...
jamesf991 says, It even talks about a postoffice where you can call 
for a taxi.
  hert0661isme says, I was trying to find one that may have some 
basis in the books
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, OH. I must do a search for BUrrow Farm 
also
flying_ford_anglia says, I think JKR just made up The Burrow ...
  hert0661isme says, Harry / Hedwig does have some reason for being 
possible - I do not see the same for H / mrs norris!

  hert0661isme says, hello
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, but she must have been inspired by the 
Name of BUrrow Farm -- it couldn't be co-incidence
flying_ford_anglia says, Mrs Norris - funny name for a cat...unless 
she was originally the wife of Mr Norris
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, fizzwhizbee, haev I asked you 
other name every week and kept forgetting?
flying_ford_anglia says, Why must she?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, JKR said Mrs Norris is named after a 
character in a Jane Austen novel.
fizzwhizbee says, Pippin/Rosemary/foxmoth
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, oh, hi!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, we have conversed!
flying_ford_anglia says, Pippin - that's too many names!
fizzwhizbee says, I know
  hert0661isme says, Well I am Dr Branford now!
flying_ford_anglia says, True...but still makes me wonder.
  hert0661isme says, and hert0661
  hert0661isme says, and hert0661isme
  hert0661isme says, and Simon
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, A cat named after a JA characters is 
less unreasonable than in Kipling's short story "The Janeites", a 
World War 1 cannon (mortar?) is named Lady Catherine de Brough after 
a JA characters
flying_ford_anglia says, Well, your names are related...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, was that too long an off-topic remark?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, did it bore people?
  hert0661isme says, well yes!
flying_ford_anglia says, No
  hert0661isme says, no
fizzwhizbee says, no
  hert0661isme says, the yes was to neil about my names being related!
flying_ford_anglia says, Were those responses too short?

anyone else you can.... 
fizzwhizbee says, what was that Simon?
flying_ford_anglia says, I learn something every time Catlady posts 
something -
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Simon, how does one save a macro?
  hert0661isme says, someone elses?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Pippin, Simon has a macro to put a cup 
of tea (he says 'cuppa') on the cheetah chat screen
  hert0661isme says, It should be a mug of tea - but it does not 
always come out right!
flying_ford_anglia says, That doesn't look like a cup of tea on 
here...
fizzwhizbee says, Oh, us Mac users are deprived, no Cheetah
siriusgeologist says, ahhh is pippin here...is that you fizzwhizbee?
flying_ford_anglia says, It just says TEA and some lines
fizzwhizbee says, Yes
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I was wondering how to save my own 
macros: then I could save different colors of roses
  hert0661isme says, I do not know if there is any way of saving 
someone elses macros - I just do my best to copy them into  new macro 
myself
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, pippin, maybe no cheetash is not a 
deprivation
siriusgeologist says, hey...I liked your post on the PoU list about 
your sons reactions to HP lemon scenes...hehehehe
  hert0661isme says, copy existing one and create a new one
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, maybe it is writing all over our hard 
drives
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, or sending our credit card info to 
HOng Kong
  hert0661isme says, The mug works on my computer - but I am well 
aware it is not the case for all!
flying_ford_anglia says, I can see it in the saved chats though...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, since it has Internet access that goes 
right through the fire wall
flying_ford_anglia says, Like magic
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Some of the pictures don't come across 
Tright in the saved chat
fizzwhizbee says, I don't get to see all the kewl avatars and stuff
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Simon, show off the Quidditch players

  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Okay, we'll stop..... slow down, anyway
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, the other left-out people seem to have 
been chatting privately
siriusgeologist says, are son's easier when they are older or younger?
fizzwhizbee says, Difficult to say, its a very different relationship 
with teens
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (what HP lemon scenes? Is there a 
literal lemon somewhere I forgot?)
flying_ford_anglia says, I've eaten too much chocolate today...time 
of the month  
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, When did you become a werewolf? 
  hert0661isme says, open up edit macros under the settings menu
siriusgeologist says, can'r wait! mine are 7, 4, and 1...so I have a 
bit
fizzwhizbee says, We were talking about HP fanfic and how explicit it 
shoud be
jamesf991 says, Explicit?  I'm still amazed that JKR got away with 
saying "pee"
siriusgeologist says, and yesterday cassie got a review saying her 
DS7 was too graphic!!!
  hert0661isme says, until a this year I would not have read anything 
like PoU or so because of such scenes!
flying_ford_anglia says, I am many things according to the season/I 
say many things according to my reason
  hert0661isme says, and then create new macro
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Simon, are you a prude?
siriusgeologist says, thats what makes me worry about ASA
  hert0661isme says, a what?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, what does lemon and explicit have to 
do with waht?

+ p_dumbledore says, Hi Neal !!
flying_ford_anglia says, How's the weather there?
+ p_dumbledore says, 40 deg F and cloudy here in Oregon
jamesf991 says, Still snowing in NC!
flying_ford_anglia says, Hmmm.
jferer enters
fizzwhizbee says, 60 deg F and sunny in rural Los Angeles county
siriusgeologist says, snowing in NC?!
flying_ford_anglia says, Snow?  Wow - can you go ski-ing Jim?
siriusgeologist says, 40 and sunny in Mass
+ p_dumbledore says, Yeech! snow !!  It's on the mountains here, but 
not in the valley here.
jamesf991 says, Yup. Earliest I can remember.  No skiing.
siriusgeologist says, we had some snow here before halloween, but it 
didn't stick
flying_ford_anglia says, Here it's .... about 50F?  No snow...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, rural Los Angeles county ... Palmdale? 
I'm in Venice
fizzwhizbee says, Close, I'm in Acton
jamesf991 says, I just bought a copy of Peg Kerr's first book - 
Emerald House Rising.  Out of print, but I got it at one of Amazon's 
z-shops.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Anyway, would I know what Lemons and 
Explicit have to do with each other if I was on PoU list, or would I 
have to join the ffnet conversation among authors?
flying_ford_anglia says, We bought a Chistmas tree for the office - 7 
foot, pine, rather flexible
fizzwhizbee says, Oh, sorry. Lemon is a term from Japanese animation 
for sexually explicit  content
flying_ford_anglia says, PoU is not explicit...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, and a VERY LONG unicorn tail hair 
fizzwhizbee says, Huh?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, the wall calendar shows the wands

fizzwhizbee says, I just read Emerald House, I got it at B&N so it is 
not out of print
jferer says, I saw the change in the wand order thing for myself 
today in a ninth printing. I wasn't sure I believed it myself.
cassandraclaire73 says, hi carole
+ p_dumbledore says, Went shopping and checked one of the new GOF's - 
sure nuff the order of exiting the wand had changed...  I wonder if 
they will change the tapes to match ??
jferer says, Hello, Cassie, all.
fizzwhizbee says, Hi Cassie
flying_ford_anglia says, I ordered Emerald... but it hasn't turned up 
yet.
cassandraclaire73 says, hey pippin  
jamesf991 says, I'll have to try her second book.  Had a hard time 
getting into #1.  Reminds me of E.R.Eddison's The Worm Ouroboros.
flying_ford_anglia says, hi
siriusgeologist says, I can't email out..otherwise you'd have 
recieved a review for DS7
cassandraclaire73 says, hey dr. branford
jferer says, I doubt they'll change the tapes and CD's.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I can't believe the wands are nobby -- 
Cedric POLISHED his
cassandraclaire73 says, i was wondering where you were, carole
siriusgeologist says, I can receive email, but can't send...
flying_ford_anglia says, Knobbly?
cassandraclaire73 says, can you post to the list?
jferer says, James991, did you read Styborin the Strong by Eddison? 
(spelling suspect)
cassandraclaire73 says, oh, unless it's a bad review, in which case 
never mind
cassandraclaire73 says,  
+ p_dumbledore says, A friend of ours carved a nice wand for 
Diann !!  Nice but not too flexable, probably not good for charm 
work !!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, they must be lathed/turned ,,, do we 
think they are perfectly smooth or that they have lathed decorations 
like the legs of Victorian chairs
siriusgeologist says, I never thought of that...I suppose I could go 
to the site...
jamesf991 says, Stylbornin the Strong?  No - just the three Ouroboros 
books.
siriusgeologist says, no it would not be a bad review at all...except 
for that graphic nookie scene...hehehehehe
cassandraclaire73 says,  
flying_ford_anglia says, I see them as natural...no decoration
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, once when I coldn't e-mail out, I used 
our egroup to send email to someone who isn't even a member -- just 
changed the TO address
jferer says, That was Eddison's other major work... rare... saw a 
copy at a con with no dust jacket for $450.
siriusgeologist says, thats an idea...I've got to call msn
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, wand as natural: if it's a stick, 
slightly bent, with bumps where branches were trimmed off, maybe even 
bark still on  HOW COULD CEDRIC POLISH HIS?

flying_ford_anglia says, cedric polishing his wand... ahem
voicelady_2000 says, hi all
siriusgeologist says, hey there
cassandraclaire73 says, im scared to ask how the topic of wand 
polishing came up
flying_ford_anglia says, Hello... 
voicelady_2000 says, what the h*** are you atlking about?!?
jamesf991 says, I used to do some woodworking - one way to polish 
wood is to rub a hard smooth steel surface against it.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I was complaining that the wall 
calendar shows the wands looking like natural sticks
siriusgeologist says, hehehehe
jamesf991 says, After that you can polish it with a little wax -- no 
varnish at all.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, wand as natural: if it's a stick, 
slightly bent, with bumps where branches were trimmed off, maybe even 
bark still on  HOW COULD CEDRIC POLISH HIS?
  
It's super!  Thanks for downloading! 
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html

  catlady_de_los_angeles says, which he did the night before 
the 'weighing' of the wands
flying_ford_anglia says, Wands aren't thick enough to be rubbed down 
with a file.  perhaps they rub in linseed oil.
jamesf991 says, It's called "burnishing" -- makes the wood smooth and 
non-absorbant
voicelady_2000 says, like a baseball glove
jamesf991 says, I'd use Carnuba (sp?) wax.
cassandraclaire73 is away (Auto-Away)
cassandraclaire73 leaves
cassandraclaire73 enters
cassandraclaire73 leaves
flying_ford_anglia says, We hear a lot about length, but not much 
about girth...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Jim -- is there are a difference 
between how Olivander and his apprentices polish, burnish, etc, the 
wand before putting it on sale, and how the owner of the wand
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, polishes it regularly
jamesf991 says, The maker would lathe it and burnish it.  Then the 
owner would polish it.
fizzwhizbee says, Interesting that Harry takes good care of his 
broomstick but neglects his wand
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, My HPs is always getting on my case 
that wood and or leathers objects should be massaged with mineral 
oil, otherwise they dry out and break. I ignore her advice.
flying_ford_anglia says, Aren't they more whippy and bendy, rather 
than stiff  and rod-like?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Ollivander keeps calling his wands 
whippy, bendy, flexible, but describes the Gregorovitch wand 
as 'rather rigid'
flying_ford_anglia says, Perhaps the Eastern Europeans favour  rigid 
wands...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I think I would. too
+ p_dumbledore says, I visualize that the wands are more like 
orchestra conducters wands, thin and fexable but without the cork end 
piexe
fizzwhizbee says, hehhe
flying_ford_anglia says, Mmmm
jamesf991 says, JKR says somewhere that a wand was made of ebony and 
flexible, which is impossible IMHO.  Ebony is extremely stiff.
+ p_dumbledore says, Yes, so you can rap knuckles with the stiffer 
wands..  
flying_ford_anglia says, the idea that wands can be snapped suggests 
that the ends are whippy and the shafts are rigid...
fizzwhizbee says, It's magic, makes limp things stiff and stiff 
things limp.  Yes, that too
fizzwhizbee says, apologies to Heinlein
+ p_dumbledore says, Yes, Diann's wand is ebony, and it's not at all 
flexible.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Maybe it was some other black wood. 
The original Egyptian word 'hebny' referred to a different tree than 
our modern word 'ebony't
flying_ford_anglia says, Ebony seems very relaxed to me... oh, wands, 
yes
voicelady_2000 groans loudly
fizzwhizbee says, Hagrid's wand was oak, snapping it must have been a 
task.
flying_ford_anglia says, Sorry - I can be trusted to state the 
obvious... 
cassandraclaire73 enters
voicelady_2000 says, I know...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Cassie, did Yahoo kick you out?

cassandraclaire73 says, i always get booted.
voicelady_2000 says, Yahoo didn't want to let me in today.

  catlady_de_los_angeles says, The flyuing car was being silly
fizzwhizbee says, Me either
jamesf991 says, Yahoo is mad at us for defecting.
flying_ford_anglia says, A few of us had problems
cassandraclaire73 says, egroups was down last night too.   and ff.net
voicelady_2000 says, hmmmmm
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Yahoo let me on, but I only tried 
Yahoo because Cheetah wouldnt let me on the first time

siriusgeologist says, aha..wondered where you got to....I've read DS7 
2x
jamesf991 says, My cable TV too! Conspiracy?
cassandraclaire73 says, really? 2 x? wow
cassandraclaire73 says, ive gotten really psycho reviews on that one
siriusgeologist says, I read everything twice, if its good...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, ffnet is up, I mean was up earlier in

siriusgeologist says, I read some of your review on ff.net...loons

siriusgeologist says, me too...H/H snogging? graphic?
cassandraclaire73 says, please he didn't even get her top off
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, oh, I thought it was horn shopping 
channel, and you were going to upgrade yourself to one that plays the 
theme from Shaft 
dee_97527 enters
flying_ford_anglia says, Snogging is graphic?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Diann, you finally got in?
  hert0661isme says, I am confused!
heiditandy enters
cassandraclaire73 says, apparently snogging is graphic
  hert0661isme says, missed far too much of this chat!
flying_ford_anglia says, No, I have enough horns for now...
€  heiditandy says, HI all - baby is taking a nap.
  hert0661isme says, hello
dee_97527 says, Howdy all.  Yes, I reconnected -- who knows
cassandraclaire73 says, heidi!
voicelady_2000 says, Hi.
fizzwhizbee says, hi
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Cassie -- the way they were on top of 
the desk, I wasn't at all sure that they were just snogging.
flying_ford_anglia says, Hello Heidi
€  heiditandy says, yes, cassandra, I made it. And snogging is not 
graphic.
cassandraclaire73 says, that really hacked me off. *growls*
cassandraclaire73 says, you should have seen the original version
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, He may not have taken her top off, but 
that doesn't mean he didn't pull up her skirt
voicelady_2000 says, I thought it was rather tastefully written.
cassandraclaire73 says, who cares if he did?
  hert0661isme says, It was the implication that more might have been 
going on
fizzwhizbee says, We wanna see the original version!!!!
cassandraclaire73 says, i know, but they're sixteen, they're gonna 
make out
  hert0661isme says, there was some mention of buttoning up top or 
something
€  heiditandy says, but when giles, I mean lupin, comes in it's clear 
nothing much more is going on
  hert0661isme says, 16 and they can leaglly do it!
cassandraclaire73 says, *snort* lori and i wrote the original version 
over the phone
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (who cares if he did?) Some of us 
would cheer and send Congratulations card
cassandraclaire73 says, during a discussion on what takes a story 
from the pg-13 to the r level
flying_ford_anglia says, Graphic implies a capacity for sexual 
arousal in the reader, I'd say
cassandraclaire73 says, yes when lupin comes it only takes them a 
second to recover. it's not like their naked.
voicelady_2000 says, I'd say DS7 was PG13.
cassandraclaire73 says, lori says once you use the worst "thrusting" 
it's all over.  
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, someone said in some review somewhere 
that every kid in UK knows that 16 is legal age and is eagerly 
waiting for it
siriusgeologist says, hehehehehe...we haven't even used that yet!
cassandraclaire73 says, don't. thrusting is a very silly word
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I thought of replying that Harry is 
not the normal kid
cassandraclaire73 says, anyway *grrr* i didn't think that desk scene 
was going to corrupt young minds.
siriusgeologist says, that why we haven't used it
  hert0661isme says, did I find out why I was being accused of being 
a prude earlier? or what one is?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, A prude is someone who thinks that 
desk scene is going to corrupt young minds.
cassandraclaire73 says,  
voicelady_2000 says, Who accused you of being a prude?
jamesf991 says, A prude is like a dehydrated plum.  A large rasin.
  hert0661isme says, I was pointing out that I would not have read 
stuff like that - but not for that reason
cassandraclaire73 says, stuff like what?
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, that's a prune
siriusgeologist says, no thats a prune!heheheheh
€  heiditandy says, they're not calling 'em prunes anymore, they're 
dried plums.
voicelady_2000 says, A prune with a cold.
flying_ford_anglia says, If you have a cold
flying_ford_anglia says, Doh!
  hert0661isme says, cat called me a prude! to do with whether or not 
I would have read PoU and DD/S type stuff a year ago
voicelady_2000 says, Great minds, Neil!
cassandraclaire73 says, good thing i didn't give your character a 
nude scene.  
voicelady_2000 says, That's not being a prude...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, NO, I ASKED whether you were a prude!
  hert0661isme says, I was pointing out that I would not have read 
that type of stuff because I was not into reading romance stuff
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I accepted your answer that it was the 
romance you objected to, not the sex
cassandraclaire73 says, (hey, heidi)
  hert0661isme says, the answer is no then!
siriusgeologist says, oooo could Narcissa have an affair with Dr. 
Branford?
cassandraclaire73 says, you just want to get rid of narcissa!
  hert0661isme says, cant I have someone younger?
  hert0661isme says, Fleur?
siriusgeologist says, hehehehehe
€  heiditandy says, what cassie?
cassandraclaire73 says, don't fuss simon
cassandraclaire73 says, now john walton wants to be in it
  hert0661isme says, am I going to appear again?
siriusgeologist says, she might explode you
cassandraclaire73 says, (heidi, thanks for that summary)
cassandraclaire73 says, (it was amazing)
voicelady_2000 says, I chuckled when Simon "scampered" away.
cassandraclaire73 says, (that was you right?)
cassandraclaire73 says, yeah i wondered if simon would mind scampering
siriusgeologist says, yes so did I...simon scampering that is
cassandraclaire73 says, but he got to annoy snape, so there you go
p_dumbledore is away (Auto-Away)
  hert0661isme says, I did not care as I upset Snape - you probably 
would have been able to kill me after that!
cassandraclaire73 says, im not going to kill you you might be useful 
later
flying_ford_anglia says, I haven't read this - you've spoiled my 
potential enjoyment of this scampering scene!
  hert0661isme says, I am always useful!
voicelady_2000 says, sorry!
siriusgeologist says, I liked Lucious exploding..perfect way to go
fizzwhizbee says, I say, lets bust MMe Lestrange out of Azkaban for 
Snape!
siriusgeologist says, oooo sorry neil
cassandraclaire73 says, carole made me write the lucius explodes bit
flying_ford_anglia says, It's okay....
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (damn, I must fix my Snape fic enough 
so I can post it, so people can find out about Mrs. Lestrange) 
siriusgeologist says, hehehehehhe...thanks
€  heiditandy says, where did the idea for lucius blowing up come 
from?
hert0661isme This chat will be saved and posted on the E-group: 
http://www.egroups.com/group/HPforGrownupsChatScripts
  
SEE MY NUDE PICS!  http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html

voicelady_2000 says, It was just so appropriate.
€  heiditandy says, and was it really lucius? I was wondering if he'd 
broken out somehow & the body in there was someone else 
flying_ford_anglia says, Yes.... how about that Rita?  Did my 
comments put you off?
  hert0661isme says, not very easy to identify!
cassandraclaire73 says, maybe it was lucius maybe it wasn't
siriusgeologist says, I said Lucious' death should be horribly bloody
siriusgeologist says, ooooooooooo
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, No, I mosstly agreed with your 
comments. Only last night I finally figured out what to do instead of 
spanking
cassandraclaire73 says, i said i was going to kill him offstage and 
carole said "make it gruesome'
voicelady_2000 says, good.
flying_ford_anglia says, <grins>
dee_97527 is away (Auto-Away)
siriusgeologist says, he deserved it
cassandraclaire73 says, oops, heidi i closed our conversation by 
accident
flying_ford_anglia says, Oooh - special effects nail varnish on QVC...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I still haven't figured out how I can 
reveal any characterization of any character other than Snape if I 
show it though Snape's eyes - -they aren't the world's clearest 
sighted eyes, you know.
cassandraclaire73 says, snape is soooo hard to write.
p_dumbledore is back.
+ p_dumbledore says, Well, I got to get back to a few things needing 
to get done...  Till next week.. !
fizzwhizbee says, Oh, Snape reads body language very well, I think
+ p_dumbledore says, Vacuums on Home Shopping Network..
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Yes. I can't write dialog nasty enough 
to be in charaters
flying_ford_anglia says, That's the interesting aspect though, RIta - 
stick with it.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Bye, bye Dennis
+ p_dumbledore says, Bye all
fizzwhizbee says, Bye
voicelady_2000 says, See ya.
flying_ford_anglia says, See you Dennis
jamesf991 says, I'm going too.  Good Night All.
fizzwhizbee says, Rita, can I beta?
p_dumbledore leaves
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I read the stuff on the egroup (you 
posted it, Pippin?) with examples of Snape reading body language very 
well
€  heiditandy says, 'night...
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (I can e-mail the same draft I sent 
Neill, it isn't fixed up yet)
jamesf991 leaves
  hert0661isme says, No! more posts of is Crookshanks just a cat are  
appearing! I am going to go off and cry soon.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, what, on the egroup now? 
  hert0661isme says, yes!
fizzwhizbee says, That's okay, I'd like to read it. foxmoth at ...
voicelady_2000 says, That's what the delete button is for!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Skip them, they don't say anything 
that wasn't in the old ones (according to Mme LaChatte's crystal ball)
  hert0661isme says, Crookshanks is about the only animal character 
that has had any real discussion - one of my FAQ's so it is not as 
simple as just deleting!
flying_ford_anglia says, I saw the Crookshanks post and thought 'oh 
well...'
voicelady_2000 says, ahhh.
€  heiditandy says, Crrokshanks is an animal manifestation of a Demon 
Sword...
  hert0661isme says, now Heidi's comment is original!
€  heiditandy says, no, it's not. It's inspired by Cassandra!
dee_97527 says, Need to run.  Happy Thanksgiving
dee_97527 is back.
flying_ford_anglia says, I thought Ron had been under-discussed - 
then there was a sudden flurry...
  hert0661isme says, I have about two pages in the FAQ on animal 
chars on whether crooks is a cat and then about two pages on the 
entire rest of the animals in the books!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil already suggested that Crookshans 
had be transfigured into a cat from a viloin in imitation o 
fChrestomanyc
voicelady_2000 says, Bye.
flying_ford_anglia says, Bye Diann
  hert0661isme says, Original in terms of not having been said about 
crooks before!
fizzwhizbee says, Bye
dee_97527 leaves
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, isn't there good discussion of Hedwig 
and owls in general, how they find the addressee with only a name by 
owl magic 
  hert0661isme says, Charlie has not been discussed for more than a 
couple of posts!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, and can't be followed
flying_ford_anglia says, Possibly from a piece of 
furniture...Crookshanks that is...
  hert0661isme says, that is for the magical animals FAQ - I am only 
doing the actual cahracters
fizzwhizbee says, I mentioned Charlie in my character summary
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Possible from a Mac? he's too smart to 
be a chair
  hert0661isme says, which char summary? (recent?)
€  heiditandy says, and originally we didn't even HAVE a malfoy FAQ, 
but thanks to Cassie, we have to - and it's more fun for me to write 
than the Character Names, Meanings & Pronunciations
flying_ford_anglia says, Is there a Neville FAQ?
flying_ford_anglia says, We've had a bit on him recently
  hert0661isme says, not sure - do noit think so
€  heiditandy says, no, I don'tthink there's a neville one. 
flying_ford_anglia says, I think we'll need one
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Get Ellimist who has the Harry Potter 
Lexicon I think it is to do the Character Names FAQ, of just link to 
her site instaed of writing a FAQ
fizzwhizbee says, If people never discuss something, then it isn't 
Frequently Asked, is it?
  hert0661isme says, I have finsihed reading yahoo messages - now 
have to zoom through e-groups and then my FAQ's will be finished!
fizzwhizbee says, (Being pedantic)
flying_ford_anglia says, That's the problem.... we're summarising 
what people have said...
siriusgeologist says, Ack...barely started
€  heiditandy says, I know, but a lot of the things we're doig FAQs 
on are holding spaces for future discussions, like the things that 
come out of character & chapter discussions
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Maybe it's named What's In a Name 
rather than Lexicon.....
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm doing Magical Devices - hardly anything 
on some things though
€  heiditandy says, I know the site you mean - I have a bookmark to 
it.
  hert0661isme says, if things go badly then I may have to move out 
of my room in two weeks time (i.e. for the whole vac) and then I run 
out of time to write FAQ's until January - so want to complete them 
befeor then
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm done with Yahoo...
cassandraclaire73 leaves
cassandraclaire73 enters
cassandraclaire73 says, kicked off again....
  hert0661isme says, I have Harry FAQ to do all of e-groups and from 
5000 for the others
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil, find out how to MAKE magical 
devices ... how the device keeps working even after the mage who made 
it has left, has died ....  
cassandraclaire73 says, hey simon, did you read dracaena draco?
cassandraclaire73 says, sorry, heidi
  hert0661isme says, is that the one by AL?
flying_ford_anglia says, well.... if it's been discussed  
siriusgeologist says, I read it and I can see the genesis of DD in it.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, The cursed opal necklace that claimed 
the lives of 17 muggle owners, the Goblet of FIre itself ..... do 
they all have to physically contain a piece of a magic animals, like 
the wands do?
fizzwhizbee says, I thought genesis of DD was Draco's Days of Darkness
cassandraclaire73 says, dracaena draco is after dd. you mean draco's 
days of darkness.
  hert0661isme says, if so then yes -  and it took until a couple fo 
days ago to work out where I had heard the name Chaldean before
siriusgeologist says, oooops you're right I'm getting my fics 
confused...eeeek
cassandraclaire73 says, yeah its the one with chaldean
  hert0661isme says, I must get round to asking a question about the 
naem!
flying_ford_anglia says, Okay...I'm saying farewell for now...
  hert0661isme says, bb
fizzwhizbee says, Bye
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (in re Dexte) What is this with the 
moo-cow?????? Is it some piece of popular culture that I would 
understand if I werne't so old?
voicelady_2000 says, Bye Neil!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Bye bye Neil
siriusgeologist says, see ya neil
flying_ford_anglia says,  
flying_ford_anglia leaves
fizzwhizbee says, Thanks, Rita I didn't get about the cow either
voicelady_2000 says, I don't get it either, Rita.
cassandraclaire73 says, the mooing is a mystery to me. its some 
teenage thing
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Thanks
cassandraclaire73 says, i hate it but it's not up to me
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, why is Lupin;s Full House Billy the 
Kid's dead man's hand?
cassandraclaire73 says, rita, what?
fizzwhizbee says, My teenage son doesn't get the moo thing either.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, Dead Man's Hand is (used to be, for 
old fogies) a famous name for the Full House of Aces and Eights 
because some Old West type won the pot with it but was shot dead by 
an enemy who tracked him to the saloon
cassandraclaire73 says, nobody gets the moo thing. i told them to 
quit with the mooing and they sauid 'just cos your older you can't 
tell us what to do.'
cassandraclaire73 says, which made me feel ninety
€  heiditandy says, I've got to get going & set teh table for 
dinner...
jferer enters
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, before he could grab the pot off the 
table
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, bye bye Heidi
€  heiditandy says, my grandma & aunt are over....
fizzwhizbee says, bye
€  heiditandy says, see y'all later!
voicelady_2000 says, Bye Heidi
heiditandy leaves
  hert0661isme says, so why the moo?
cassandraclaire73 says, when does lupin play cards?
voicelady_2000 says, You know, I just love Lupin.
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, I can't remember whether Billy the Kid 
was the shooter or the shootee or maybe he wasn't really in the story 
at all
cassandraclaire73 says, I DON'T KNOW WHY THE MOO!
siriusgeologist says, bye heidi
  hert0661isme says, I blame it all on the kids!
  catlady_de_los_angeles says, (not the real Lupin, the one in Draco 
Dexter chapter two)
jferer says, Everybody loves Lupin.  He's the mentor we all wish we 
had.
siriusgeologist says, kids today....sigh
cassandraclaire73 says, ohhh....i'll go look. i only remember the 
bits i wrote
fizzwhizbee says, I thought it was Wild Bill Hickock who had the dead 
mans hand
voicelady_2000 says, Mentor, schmentor, I think he's hot.
cassandraclaire73 says, yeah kids, with the drugs and sex and the 
mooing
  catlady_de_los_angeles
