the fire in the kitchen...)
selah_1977 says, Yes... it's Ebony...
€ hert0661isme says, Just checking my memory is not gone
completely!
selah_1977 says, That's okay... I know selah has nothing to do with
my name... and btw thanks for looking at TIP, Simon... it was so cool
to get your review!
€ hert0661isme says, Dee - I plan to be here for most of the
time,
but if this goes on too far past midnight (my time - 4 hours away)
then I will have to go to bed as I have had little sleep for the last
few days
selah_1977 says, what time is it now out there Simon?
€ hert0661isme says, Ebony - managed to fit reading TP (do you

longer review after the next chapter

catlady_de_los_angeles says, Wow! Lots of people here!

Neville, Blaise Zabini, Ernie MacMillan, and Hermione... but if
you're too overextended, just let me know...

catlady_de_los_angeles says, fic
gypsycaine says, I'm also cooking: Mac and Cheese and wiener-winks.
gypsycaine says, beep beep.
selah_1977 says, I'd better ask Cassie, then, too... I am *so*
tempted to ask her to be the vicious editor in chief of the Daily
Prophet since she doesn't like Ron...
gypsycaine says, beep back in a few.... supper's ready to
finish/eat.
€ hert0661isme says, Sounds ok - dark arts stuff sounds cool
selah_1977 says, Great!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I use the adjective 'medimagical'
selah_1977 says, Rita--that calendar was hilarious!
€ hert0661isme says, Rita - similarly I say yes (will answer
your
questions in the next couple of days!)

€ hert0661isme says, r ----^
selah_1977 says, The Hunks of Hogwarts calendar...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Just a message I posted on the e-group
catlady_de_los_angeles says, suggesting who could be on each month

fizzwhizbee leaves
selah_1977 says, Nah, just canonical characters... but if we did do a
fanfic one, I'd want Rita's Cedric, PoU Harry and DD/DS Draco aged up
a year or so.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Simon -- only people of whom my
knowledge is specifically associated with Hogwarts
€ hert0661isme says, Women!
selah_1977 says, and of course the dead sexy Dr. Branford, posing in
a stethoscope and...
selah_1977 says, LOL!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Are you a hunk? Did you follow the
advice to go into a clothing store and try on leather trousers and
have a friend photo you and post the pic?
Your buddy p_dumbledore is in chat
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Altho' leather trousers are not really
*my* thing. Tight jeans, now......
p_dumbledore enters
€ hert0661isme says, No - to either!

selah_1977 says, Nah... you can also use your doctor's bag... for the
sake of modesty
selah_1977 says, Question: what is wizarding family law like?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I don't konw if they even HAVE divorce
johnwalton_crazyivan is away (Auto-Away)
€ p_dumbledore says, Do they even have Marriage ??
catlady_de_los_angeles says, well, the married couple we meet share
a surname and the wives are Mrs.

fizzwhizbee says, Yep, did you get my email/
selah_1977 says, Oh... that's right... Ellen's anglinsbees... hi,
Pippin! Good to see you!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Tell me, Foxmoth or Foxglove, and I'll
post Episode 1
fizzwhizbee says, Hi
fizzwhizbee says, Foxglove
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I got your filk song, and you should
put it on the egroup
gypsycaine is away (Auto-Away)
fizzwhizbee says, Okay,
fizzwhizbee says, I wasn't sure if it was good enough
selah_1977 says, Pippin, I just asked what wizarding family law is
like... I need to know...
dee_97527 enters
fizzwhizbee says, Not a clue? what specifically
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Ebony: ask more specific quesitons?
selah_1977 says, I'm sure it *is*, Pippin. The Imperious crush is
hilarious...
€ hert0661isme says, Hello
dee_97527 says, Howdy all
selah_1977 says, Hi!
fizzwhizbee says, Thanks
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Diane
+ p_dumbledore says, Hello Diann
selah_1977 says, Heidi and I are discussing a point in TIP4... she's
the lawyer and I'm not. She says 11 million Galleons is excessive
for a settlement. I don't think it is. What's the Galleon to pound
exchange rate? What are salaries like? We just don't know.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I believe that one Galleon is roughly
$25
selah_1977 says, How'd you come up with *that*?
fizzwhizbee says, Elevenmillion sounds like too much to me also
fizzwhizbee says, How much did Clinton pay?
€ hert0661isme says, A rich family?
selah_1977 says, give me a number, then, that will still shock a
(Muggle) reader
fizzwhizbee says, Whatever happened to publish and be damned?
selah_1977 says, How about 11 million Sickles?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Based on the price of daily newspaper
(5 knuts) and the candy on the Hogwarts express
€ hert0661isme says, Prince Charles paid something in the region
of
15 million (uk pounds) to Di when they divorced
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and 7 Galleons for a wand fitted right
in
selah_1977 says, How many pounds is $25? about 12?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, $1,43 is one pound
€ hert0661isme says, 10 pounds is 15 dollars
€ hert0661isme says, roughly!

selah_1977 says, Hee, Pippin! She just fussed about in in her beta-
read... and I thought it was a valid point.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, annoying thing about Al's fic is he
seems to have one galleon = one pound
selah_1977 says, So 1 Galleon=about 20-22 pounds?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, IIRC Cassie seems to be using the
Galleon that's worth abouht $5
selah_1977 says, So there probably aren't very many wizard
millionaires. :::slaps forehead::::
fizzwhizbee says, If the case was setttled, why was it in the paper
anyway?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Remember that the word millionaire was
invented when the dollar was worth a lot more than it is now.
fizzwhizbee says, Settlements are usually to keep it all hushy hushy
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I think she's talking divorce
settlement?
selah_1977 says, well, if it *was* hushed, and someone leaked it...
Your buddy tria_andromeda_blade is on pager
fizzwhizbee says, Then it should say "alleged" or something
selah_1977 says, C'mon, Pippin... this is the Prophet! When did Rita
Skeeter say alleged?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Before WWI, people who made $5 a week
thought they were living the American dream
€ hert0661isme says, Which case?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, During WW2, my mother made $25 a week
as a young journalist
fizzwhizbee says, Sorry, Ebony's fic...you'll have to read it,
tomorrow I think
fizzwhizbee says, Ebony did you ever get my beta?
selah_1977 says, Right... not trying to tease... just realized I know
nothing about the economics as implied by JKR
selah_1977 says, yes, I did...
selah_1977 says, anyone read DS10 yet?
fizzwhizbee says, Yes! to
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Many people have suggested that JKR
does't know anything about the economics of the wizarding world
€ hert0661isme says, Going to soon!
fizzwhizbee says, It was great!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I am in the process of reading DS10,
but you guys distracted me
€ hert0661isme says, I have it up in another window but have not
started it yet - am unpacking!
fizzwhizbee says, Tolkien complained that people wanted him to invent
all kinds of things,
selah_1977 says, I'll email you later Pippin... got your beta read...
had me laughing... I want to ruin it for you and tell you everything,
but Carole's been corrupted and I need you to stay pure

selah_1977 says, Neil!
selah_1977 says,
€ hert0661isme says, Neil
dee_97527 says, Hi Neil
+ p_dumbledore says, Hello Neil
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Neil, we were talking about the
value of a Galleon
flying_ford_anglia says, Hello everyone!
fizzwhizbee says, for Middle earth that he had no idea about.
Archaelogists wanted pottery
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Because Ebony needs to figure out how
much to settle a case for
fizzwhizbee says, Geologists said the continents were impossible
Your buddy siriusgeologist is on pager
flying_ford_anglia says, I saw Ebony's post... um, what did we
decide before?
fizzwhizbee says, Ebony wants me to stay pure (!!!)
selah_1977 says, LOL, Pippin! The price of fame, I guess... just
like some say JKR just made up 1000 students for Hogwarts
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil, you had a computataion that
started with one knut = 2p
flying_ford_anglia says, Did I?
flying_ford_anglia says, We were thinking about the price of a
newspaper...
flying_ford_anglia says, in PS... was it 4 or 5 knuts?
fizzwhizbee says, How much do people usually pay in a paternity
suit? We're not talking palimony
fizzwhizbee says, are we?
selah_1977 says, Nah. Hermione doesn't want any money.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I can only do it in American money. I
believe in the $25 Galleon, some people believe in the $5 Galleon,
and my major complaint against Al's fic is he seems to believe in a
one pound Galleon
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Not called paternity suits anymore
Your buddy hime_alyianna_kage has gone off pager
selah_1977 says, What are they called, then?
selah_1977 says, What are they called in England?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, establish paternity and get a court
order for child support
flying_ford_anglia says, Paternity suits, I think
selah_1977 says, What would they be called in magical England?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, on-going child support, not a lump sum
Your buddy siriusgeologist is in chat
siriusgeologist enters
catlady_de_los_angeles says, altho' the kid can be 18 when the
mother sues for her back child support for all thsoe years
selah_1977 says, Carole!
siriusgeologist says, Hi all
selah_1977 says, how was your birthday?
flying_ford_anglia says, Hi there...
€ hert0661isme says, Hello
siriusgeologist says, been dechristmasfying my house
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Carole, happy birthday yesterday,
Ebony says she's corrupted you
€ hert0661isme says, and a late Happy Birthday
fizzwhizbee says, Hi carole, belated happy birthday
flying_ford_anglia says, It's past 12th Night though ...
siriusgeologist says, birthday was really nice...nothing special
heiditandy enters
siriusgeologist says, corrupted me...how?
fizzwhizbee says, Hello Heidi
heiditandy says, hi all - I've got 15 minutes of hanging out time!
flying_ford_anglia says, We'd better make it count!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, we mentioned DS10, which is dedicated
to you
€ hert0661isme says, Hello
selah_1977 says, Hi Heidi--got your email--reducing amount--thanks!
siriusgeologist says, hi heidi
johnwalton_crazyivan is back.
johnwalton_crazyivan ops back in, essay half-typed up::
siriusgeologist says, I'm working on comments for you eb.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and we've been discussing that amount
right now
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, John
dee_97527 leaves
selah_1977 says, wow... you're good! that was just 30 minutes!
heiditandy says, I really called her while we were about to board the
airplane
fizzwhizbee says, Hi John
heiditandy says, what's the sum going to be? or still undecided?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I don't know if we can trust
geologists whom claim that (Middle Earth's) continents are
impossible.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, [Eb] Yep, touchtyping. [all] Hi everyone
who arrived in my absence
flying_ford_anglia says, Just pick a number...
selah_1977 says, Heidi: I'll take your 7 mil. Galleons... All:
What's a starting Quidditch Seeker's salary per annum?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, at that time they hadn't even thought
of plate tectonics
selah_1977 says, 500,000 sickles?
siriusgeologist says, what about geologists?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Was he a superstar Seeker at Hogwarts?
fizzwhizbee says, Geologists complained that Tolkien's Middle Earth
didn't fit their theories
flying_ford_anglia says, 3,000 Galleons...
selah_1977 says, I don't know... if I'd been thinking, he would have
been a Beater or a Keeper
selah_1977 says, That low, Neil?
siriusgeologist says, ahhhh...geologists had some weird ideas before
they came up with plate tectonics
flying_ford_anglia says, That's about £24,000, I reckon...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I figure that ten Galleons a week
(what Du offered Dobby) is normal minimum wage for adults
heiditandy says, bonus for each snitch caught. and bonus for making
it into playoffs & then to finals & for winning them too
flying_ford_anglia says, Good thought
p_dumbledore is away (Auto-Away)
selah_1977 says, endorsements and such..
johnwalton_crazyivan says, ((Trying new color blend))
flying_ford_anglia says, That's about 200 a year...
fizzwhizbee says, Dumbledore probably would pay more than minimum wage
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and someone who only got into the
minor league farm team would be ecstatic to get twice minimum wage
for the season, and nothing out of season
selah_1977 says, So it's safe to say that no one in this world makes
a million Galleons a year?
flying_ford_anglia says, Of course, transfer costs would be much
higher...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, (Du pay more than minimum) To a House
Elf? Remember Dobby refused it, insisted on be paid LESS
€ hert0661isme says, I do!
selah_1977 says, LOL, Dr. Branford!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Ebony: Malfosoft? ::horrible mental image
of Nerd Draco::
catlady_de_los_angeles says, $25 million a year. CEOs of some
huge, altho' money losing, corporations
flying_ford_anglia says, How much money does Harry have...or the
Malfoys?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Malfosoft was a wonderful idea!
flying_ford_anglia says, Are they Galleonaires?
€ hert0661isme says, Me
selah_1977 says, Nah, Draco has the brains of Bill Gates, but Cassie
would have killed me if he'd traded in his guns of sexiness for a
pocket protector and glasses!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, I know, I love it, but I was thinking that
the head of Malfosoft would make more than w million.
heiditandy says, but they also get bonuses & things like expense
accounts
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Cassie said Draco will inherit 75
million Galleons
flying_ford_anglia says, Spoiler alerts!!!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, pop singers and movie stars
selah_1977 says, How much is Harry's inheritance in canon?
selah_1977 says, Speculation, I mean...
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Who's FAQing that question?
flying_ford_anglia says, Is it stated.. just a big pile 'o galleons?
heiditandy says, no idea how much it is in canon - and that vault may
just contain the interest, not the principal
€ hert0661isme says, Not me!
heiditandy says, wait until you see my Geek!Draco.
selah_1977 says, what about descriptions? Piles of gold?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, the 75 million was in an old episode,
Narcissa told Sirius, who was shocked at mhow much
flying_ford_anglia says, Um.... is it Wizarding World (General)?
fizzwhizbee says, You need about $2,000,000 if you want to live just
on the earnings
€ hert0661isme says, Money?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Well, it's not Wizarding World Clothing,
I'll say that much.
selah_1977 says, Ooh... when's the next Surfeit of Curses coming out?
€ hert0661isme says, maybe it is mine - on Harry!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, The chat room isn't letting ALicia-Sue
in!
flying_ford_anglia says, He looks in the vault and scoops out a
load of coins...
€ hert0661isme says, have not read any of the messages on it
though!
It's super! Thanks for downloading!
http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/chat.html
p_dumbledore leaves
flying_ford_anglia says, tries to hide the contents...sounds like a
lot.
fizzwhizbee says, That gold must be enchanted, how can he even carry
it?
selah_1977 says, Carole: did you get my e-mail?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Rita, what system/browser is she using?
heiditandy says, hopefully this week - my laptop computer broke in
the 10 dyas I was away so I couldn't work on it when I wanted to &
now I've just been so bnusy (and I've beta-ed 3 stories this week
alone!)
flying_ford_anglia says, Good point... when Harry dropped a
thousand Galleons...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, $25,000
selah_1977 says, Neil and Heidi: So Harry is a Galleonaire, huh?
flying_ford_anglia says, on the bedside table, it would have
smashed it (GoF)
fizzwhizbee says, Lol
catlady_de_los_angeles says, IE 5.0
catlady_de_los_angeles says, she says, can someone do an Invite to
her? skaprincess27
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Mac or Windows? Because I know from
experience you can't get in with Mac IE5.0.
selah_1977 says, Heidi Tandy--Uberbeta Reader!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Ebony, sounds like a German name!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, "Ja, hallo, ich bin Uberbeta Reader. Wie
gehts?"
flying_ford_anglia says, I think Harry has about ...ooooh .....
50,000 Galleons
selah_1977 says, LOL! Well, then Super Beta Reader--all she needs is
a cape!
skaprincess27 enters
catlady_de_los_angeles says, she sys she has Windows
skaprincess27 says, Thank you!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Hurray!
€ hert0661isme says, Hello
heiditandy says, we don't know how large they are - and they're not
shaped like Muggle money -
fizzwhizbee says, hello
selah_1977 says, Hi, Alicia/Sue!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, HI, you got in!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Hi Alicia/Sue!
selah_1977 says, Neil, you are not helping my case...
skaprincess27 says, Hello! *calmly beats her computer with a large
stick*
catlady_de_los_angeles says, The wizarding money is all boringly
round.
Your buddy tria_andromeda_blade has gone off pager
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Ron was amused at the 50p coin because
it ISN"T round
flying_ford_anglia says, What are you trying to cost Ebony?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, And there are only three types of coin.
Silly!
flying_ford_anglia says, Paternity payments
fizzwhizbee says, Galleons can't be size of hubcaps, can they?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, that is a great disappointment to
those of us who wanted the Sickle to be crescent shaped
€ hert0661isme says, depends what size hubcaps!
selah_1977 says, Is there Hogwarts tuition?
flying_ford_anglia says, Do they have notes... prob not
heiditandy says, no, I think the knuts aren't round. If they were,
they would stack and in the vault, they dont
skaprincess27 says, It seems sort of irrational for them to ccarry
around large denominations in coin form.
€ hert0661isme says, paper money? you cant have that - modern
muggle
invention!
flying_ford_anglia says, Sickles would make good Triad weapons
then... <g>
catlady_de_los_angeles says, We don't know that there aren't two-
knut and 5-sickle and 20-Galleon and 100-Galleon coins
fizzwhizbee says, Arthur seemed very unfamiliar with paper money
gypsycaine picks up a pillow off the couch, and walks over to where
she bonks Neil in the head with it repeatedly until the feathers
fly! <<<<<-----
heiditandy says, sort of like the Pu in hitchHiker's Guide.

catlady_de_los_angeles says, I am sure there is magic on the
wizarding money to make it light evnought to carry
flying_ford_anglia says, Thanks Dee....
skaprincess27 says, True.
€ hert0661isme says, maybe it is fake
flying_ford_anglia says, Another question: how big is a Gringotts'
vault?
€ hert0661isme says, Magical - can be as big as is needed
gypsycaine says, I think the vaults are various sized.
flying_ford_anglia says, Is it like a safe or like a room?
skaprincess27 says, They can't be monstrously huge-- I think like a
safe.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, (Lee used to keep a bag of pennies in
her living room, so when D&Ders said their PCs were carrying this
huge amount of copper pieces, she could ask them to lift that bag.....

johnwalton_crazyivan enters
flying_ford_anglia says, Like a tardis... or bottomless pit?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, testing, testing
johnwalton_crazyivan :kicks BTinternet::
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I am also sure there is magic on the
wizarding money to make it not possible to counterfeit
€ hert0661isme says, testing ?
gypsycaine says, to my mind, Disney put out a movie about a skunk,
and that girl from Escape from Witch Mountain, where they were locked
in a safe.
fizzwhizbee says, Like the seats in the Weasley car
skaprincess27 says, Aren't computers fun? *evil grin*
flying_ford_anglia says, Omigod - I'm on BTInternet as well...
gypsycaine says, that's how I picture the Gringrotts safes.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, (Simon: my POS ISP booted me off.)
flying_ford_anglia says, It tries to cut me off
johnwalton_crazyivan says, It's EVIL. I swear there's a wee demon in
the phone line somewhere.
skaprincess27 says, I see them kind of as these safes set in the wall-
- maybe 13x13 for Harry's.
€ hert0661isme says, There are times when I realise how lucky I
am
to be on an network machine!
flying_ford_anglia says, Hmmmm.
fizzwhizbee says, But Gringotts goblin says that people can be sucked
inside?
heiditandy says, didn't harry walk into his?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Simon, that's the ONE thing I miss about
being in Halls of Residence.
gypsycaine says, if you have daemons, then what do I have? AOL?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, bt is bacillium thuringenesis
(spelling stinks) and kills caterpillars ... it must think Internet
is a caterpillar
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Dee: AOHell
heiditandy says, okay guys - I have to get going - will try to come
back later!
heiditandy leaves
catlady_de_los_angeles says, bye bye Heidi
€ hert0661isme says, I have lived in them all my time here!
flying_ford_anglia says, I'd say the size of a walk-in fridge/cold
room...
skaprincess27 says, But nonetheless deep. I think he walked into--
or Hagrid walked into-- #713, but his could be a lot smaller.
skaprincess27 says, Bye!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Pippin: That's what I see as well. Sort of
a large walk-in closet.
flying_ford_anglia says, Bye Heidi!
€ hert0661isme says, Oxford is far too expensive to live out in
-
unless you have too
gypsycaine says, exactly Neil!
gypsycaine says, by
gypsycaine says, (tosses an e up)
selah_1977 says, Well, doesn't the wizarding world have inflation?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Someone cast an anti-inflation spell
back in the Good Old Days
johnwalton_crazyivan says, ((Right, off to finish my essay. Back
soon, I hope.))
€ hert0661isme says, They cant be too big as it talks of Molly
sweeping all the money up into a bag
flying_ford_anglia says, Tara!
fizzwhizbee says, Bye
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Who're you calling Tara?!
skaprincess27 says, Probably, with that woman complaining about the
price of dragon's something-or-other in one of the first two books
johnwalton_crazyivan :grin:: Ciao.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, If the wizarding money grows on trees
(very special and heavily guraded trees)
selah_1977 says, See you, John...
flying_ford_anglia says, I meant bye bye!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, they would have DEFLATION if the
number of trees or size of crop didn't increase to match the increase
goods and service produced by an increased population.
fizzwhizbee says, Is wizarding money single currency...or is there
exchange rate between..
gypsycaine says, (spleen?)
catlady_de_los_angeles says, 17 sickles an ounce
fizzwhizbee says, wizarding governments
skaprincess27 says, That's it!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, dragon liver
selah_1977 says, Well, I have a wizarding stock exchange, so there's
got to be inflation and interest rates and stuff.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, that she said 17 sickles, not 1 galleon
selah_1977 says, ohh... be right back...
fizzwhizbee says, You have inflation, if you have credit.
gypsycaine says, ok....
catlady_de_los_angeles says, indicates that most prices are low
enough that they are stated in sickles
gypsycaine miles
gypsycaine smiles too.
flying_ford_anglia says, BRB - gotta check the oven....
skaprincess27 says, What exactly is the wizarding currency equal to
in Muggle money?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, that's what we were debating
skaprincess27 says, ah.
gypsycaine says, simon, do you collect recipes, (reminded by
the "oven")
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I belive in the $25 = 1 galleon
catlady_de_los_angeles says, some people believe $5 = 1 galleon --
that seems to be what DD and DS use
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Of course, it would make a different
if we were talking about a 1999 dollar, a 1950 dollar, or an 1850
dollar.....
skaprincess27 says, Has anyone ever paid for anything in the books
like food or drink that would indicate how much it could be?
€ hert0661isme says, Depends what for - I am slowly building up
a
collection for various things
catlady_de_los_angeles says, When Harry bought out the candy cart
on his first trip on Hogwrats Expresss
catlady_de_los_angeles says, the amount he paid is stated in
sickles and knuts
siriusgeologist says, How much is the Daily prophet that the owl
delivers to hagrid on the rock in the sea
€ hert0661isme says, 5 knuts
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and my recollection is that the $25
conversion indicates that he paid IIRC $16.38
gypsycaine says, 5 knuts = 35 cents?
skaprincess27 says, IIRC?
€ hert0661isme says, which sounds like a reasonable selection of
candy - which is what he got!
€ hert0661isme says, if i recall corectly
fizzwhizbee says, Eleven sickles and 12 knuts bought more food than
two eleven year olds could eat
gypsycaine says, I would love to have that much candy right
now...grins....
catlady_de_los_angeles says, yes, 5 knuts, but I think it's only 30
or 25 cents: the Prophet isn't worth very much
gypsycaine says, chocoholic.
skaprincess27 says, Ah. Gracias.
gypsycaine says, our local paper of just a few sections is .35
€ hert0661isme says, grass what?
skaprincess27 says, *g*
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Gracias is Thank You
€ hert0661isme says, I was given two boxes (small) of chocolates
for
my weekends work!
selah_1977 says, back
€ hert0661isme says, knew that - was just acting dumb - usually
do
so when anyone says anything in a foreign language to me!
skaprincess27 says, My Spanish doesn't go much beyond "gracias"
and "Taco Bell".
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Since when is Spanish a foreign
language? ....
flying_ford_anglia says, I think a Sickle is about a quid...
gypsycaine says, mine does only Donde es su bano.
€ hert0661isme says, for me it is - I only speak english (apart
from
a few words of French and German)
fizzwhizbee says, How much is a quid?
flying_ford_anglia says, which makes a Galleon ...£17?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Okay, I'm joking, I can't speak any
Spanish except Mucho Gracias and De Nada, but I can puzzle out most
of the signs and billboards from the pictures
€ hert0661isme says, quid = 1 uk pound
flying_ford_anglia says, A pound... or $1.60ish?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, a quid is a pound is $1.43
skaprincess27 says, I know enough French to go to France and be able
to swear loudly at people who refer to me as "Americain stupide".
Beyond that, I'm not sure.
flying_ford_anglia says, Oh, crap exchange rate...
gypsycaine says, (wonders why the high inflation value of a pound?)
skaprincess27 says, What's the current pound-dollar exchange rate?
skaprincess27 says, 1.43?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, $1.43
flying_ford_anglia says, So, a knut is about 5p (7c)?
€ hert0661isme says, I blame it all on Labour and the Euro!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, My late mother lived her life
convinced thta 1 pound = $5
fizzwhizbee says, Sounds like a good time for me to visit the UK1
€ hert0661isme says, now that is an exchange rate I would like!
fizzwhizbee says, UK!
skaprincess27 says, Any times in he next four years sounds like a
good time to move to the UK!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and couldn't grash the news reprots
when I was in elementary school about the poind being devalued from
$2.80 to $2.60
johnwalton_crazyivan is away (Auto-Away)
Your buddy melanie_050269 is on pager
selah_1977 says, This is really, really depressing me... that means I
made a huge mistake in my economic calculations.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I believe that the fall below $2 (with
floating rather than fixed exchange rates) happened while I lived in
NYC (early 80s)
flying_ford_anglia says, 5p x 19 = 95p /95p x 17 = £16.15/
(1,000
Galleons = £16,150)?

voicelady_2000 enters
selah_1977 says, Hi, Jeralyn!
voicelady_2000 says, Hi everyone!
fizzwhizbee says, Hi Jeralyn
gypsycaine says, hi!
skaprincess27 says, *shrug* My knowledge of exchange rates doesn't go
too far beyond knowing that a souvenir keychain costs 2pounds.
selah_1977 says, I don't know what I was basing it on... most likely.
skaprincess27 says, hello!
flying_ford_anglia says, Or a Galleon is just over $20?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, 29 (twenty nine) kunts to sickle, not
19
siriusgeologist says, hi jeralyn!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Hi, Jeralyn
voicelady_2000 says, What's today's topic(s)?
flying_ford_anglia says, Expensive souvenir keychain!
gypsycaine says, Neil does that mean that things are exaggerated in
cost, as well (like a McDonald's French Fry order is .99 here.
fizzwhizbee says, Exchange rates, and paternity settlement amounts
selah_1977 says, Hi Jeralyn!
€ hert0661isme says, Hello
flying_ford_anglia says, Oooops - I'll start again then
skaprincess27 says, The person who got it for me isn't bright enough
to eralize what he got duped into buying. ^_^
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Another problem with exchange rates is
that the currency conversion dollars aren't the same as cost of
living dollars
flying_ford_anglia says, 29 kunts, you say?
Your buddy melanie_050269 has gone off pager
catlady_de_los_angeles says, knuts
Your buddy melanie_050269 is on pager
skaprincess27 says, *realize
catlady_de_los_angeles says, transposition
selah_1977 says, Oh, well... may just keep my amounts (save changing
the 11 to 7) and just deal with the corrections from reviewers.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, like, talk about a $300,000 house,
find out what city it's in, because here it might be a tear-down shack
selah_1977 says, Big numbers are more sensational than small ones.
fizzwhizbee says, Sounds good enough, Eb, you can't please everyone
anyway
gypsycaine says, here it's something only owned by a two-
professional family.
gypsycaine says, two lawyers, doctors, etc...
flying_ford_anglia says, £1.45 x 17 = £24.65 (Galleon)
gypsycaine says, most homes are 112.k
selah_1977 says, you're right, Pippin... just like to be accurate.
skaprincess27 says, I don't think anyone will stop reading because of
slighlty off exchange rates-- and if they do, then they're probably
very dumb. ^_^
skaprincess27 says, *slightly
flying_ford_anglia says, Ask JKR - she'll overestimate it...
selah_1977 says, are the Malfoys rich in canon?
fizzwhizbee says, LOL
selah_1977 says, LOL, Neil!
gypsycaine says, it's contagious.....Neil gave it to you...
fizzwhizbee says, You betcha, the Malfoys are rich
gypsycaine says, I think they are.
flying_ford_anglia says, Yes
gypsycaine says, No idea what Mr. Malfoy does, though.
fizzwhizbee says, Harry says, judging by the fact that Malfoy always
had the best of everything
flying_ford_anglia says, Wealth of money and possessions
€ hert0661isme says, thethey appear to be - but it is not always
a
clear sign
selah_1977 says, richer than the Potters?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Neil, you just argued for a $35
Galleon, more than mine
gypsycaine says, besjdes store things under his dining room.
flying_ford_anglia says, Malfoy trades treasures on the black
market, poisons etc?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Yes. The Malfoys own that huge estate
full of antiques, the Potters lived in a nice house
flying_ford_anglia says, I think
skaprincess27 says, It depends-- how much does being an
internationally renowned prat pay these days?
fizzwhizbee says, Sounds like inherited wealth, so must own land or
factories
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Malfoy's income from rent paid to him
on land he owns
gypsycaine says, what kind of magical factories?
fizzwhizbee says, Huge estate full of antiques is not canon
flying_ford_anglia says, Prats usually get the big bucks...
gypsycaine thinks....
skaprincess27 says, I'd feel sorry for anyone living on his land.
flying_ford_anglia says, by doing nowt
selah_1977 says, <---thought: probably very expensive for the
Grangers to provide Hermione's school things... they probably goggle
at the prices in Diagon Alley
gypsycaine says, I don't know about that.
flying_ford_anglia says, Dentists get paid well though...
gypsycaine says, Dentists over here get good money
selah_1977 says, Pippin--no, not canon, Cassie's DD/DS
fizzwhizbee says, Ollivander's wands, book publishers, quidditch
supplies
fizzwhizbee says, factories
selah_1977 says, But two dentists aren't rich, are they?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, $175 for a wand that is supposed to
last you a lifetime
flying_ford_anglia says, The exchange rate could be favourable
though....
gypsycaine says, they would have that 200-300 k home here....
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Muggle schoolbooks cost enough to make
parents goggle
gypsycaine says, and a Mercedes, or a BmW
selah_1977 says, And the Grangers might have sent her to some
expensive boarding school had she not gotten into Hogwarts.
gypsycaine says, prolly a membership to the local country club.
flying_ford_anglia says, Only the Weasleys seem to be poor, on a
single Govt workers' salary
flying_ford_anglia says, ...that should give us an idea..7 kids...
skaprincess27 says, Hermione doesn't seem like the type of person
that comes from an uncultured background-- she's... how do I say it...
gypsycaine says, with so many kids, it wasn't feasible to have
Molly work too.
voicelady_2000 says, I wonder if Percy contributes to the family
since he's still living at home?
flying_ford_anglia says, earning about ... £25,000 a year?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I wonder if MoM salaries are based on
the idea that only a person with inherited wealth would become a
Civil Servant
selah_1977 says, Molly could work from home...
flying_ford_anglia says, Nah...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, the wizarding world seems to be kind
of down on mothers working
selah_1977 says, Why not, Neil?
gypsycaine says, she could, but I didn't get that impression.
fizzwhizbee says, Charlie and Bill could send money home to
fizzwhizbee says, Good thought Rita
skaprincess27 says, Agreed
flying_ford_anglia says, Hermione is middle class...
gypsycaine says, upper middle.
fizzwhizbee says, Not so easy to work from home with that many
little' uns
selah_1977 says, Rita--that was my theory when I first found this
club. Career or motherhood?
skaprincess27 says, That's it, upper-middle class.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Dunno whether being a dragon wrangler
pays well enough to send money home?
flying_ford_anglia says, I was responding to Rita...
flying_ford_anglia says, Molly could work from home...yes
selah_1977 says, Oh!
skaprincess27 says, What would she be doing?
gypsycaine says, it could be one of those macho jobs that don't pay
as much, but give good satisfaction.
€ hert0661isme says, I bet Molly would not accept money from
either
Bill or Chrlie unless the are living at homenow that is an exchange
rate I would like!
selah_1977 says, That's why I can't see Hermione having any kids. If
she did, she'd have one and she would have a nanny.
flying_ford_anglia says, She could do magical baking...
selah_1977 says, Magical baking?
voicelady_2000 says, That's what I thought too, Neil.
flying_ford_anglia says, That's fanfic talking, Ebony
skaprincess27 says, Agreed, Ebony.
selah_1977 says, No, it's not, Neil! Can you see Hermione in Molly
Weasley's place?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, fanfic: nanny or baking?
selah_1977 says, She'd lose her mind!
gypsycaine says, Hermione seems more "modern" womanish.
flying_ford_anglia says, No.... perhaps not, but maybe not a career
wife either...
voicelady_2000 says, Definitely a career woman.
skaprincess27 says, She'd be part of the Women's Lib movement.
flying_ford_anglia says, I knew loads of women at college
fizzwhizbee says, Lot's of modern women have kids, love the mom
thing, and stay home, at least t
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Witch's Lib
gypsycaine says, it could be that Carole has brainwashed me, though!
fizzwhizbee says, till the kids start school
flying_ford_anglia says, ...who ended up as housewives...homemakers
siriusgeologist says, what did I do now!
flying_ford_anglia says, ...despite having science degrees.
gypsycaine says, (Hermione's job)
selah_1977 says, Her personality would have to do an 180 change,
though...
siriusgeologist says, just reentered and you are talking about what I
know
selah_1977 says, 180 degree turnaround I mean
catlady_de_los_angeles says, but I don't know that Hermione would
take time out from research liberating OTHER people
selah_1977 says, Carole, would Hermione stay at home with seven kids?
skaprincess27 says, She doesn't seem like the type to stay in one
place-- home-- for the rest of her days.
siriusgeologist says, you can't work at home with kids without daycare
siriusgeologist says, no herm would not have 7 kids
selah_1977 says, Carole speaketh from experience!
fizzwhizbee says, Herm might have one or two
fizzwhizbee says, Speaking from experience also
flying_ford_anglia says, Hmmm - she's 14 now. Difficult to project.
siriusgeologist says, yes one or 2 and a nanny for sure
gypsycaine says, I need daycare myself, just for my sanity, with
one!
flying_ford_anglia says, I agree that she wouldn't have 7 kids...
siriusgeologist says, i'm right there with you dee
flying_ford_anglia says, not many modern, educated women would.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, When the kids reach a certain age
(say, old enough to go to Hogwarts)
siriusgeologist says, very few have more than 2
gypsycaine says, I want too.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, they can be left to run around loose
while mum works
flying_ford_anglia says, I'm not sure she's have a nanny... more
likely to have no kids
gypsycaine says, I admit it, but next time a few things would be
verrrrrry different.
siriusgeologist says, and a whole lot of my professional friends are
opting not to have any
flying_ford_anglia says, ...and work instead
gypsycaine says, (too-two)
skaprincess27 says, She might opt to have one kid.
gypsycaine says, i waited until later in my life.
fizzwhizbee says, One kid seems common in the WW
gypsycaine says, but it was still quite a surprise.
selah_1977 says, Like a girl named Linda, maybe, Alicia?
voicelady_2000 says, Hubby and I aren't having any.
skaprincess27 says, God help her if she did.
siriusgeologist says, She seems like the type that would want 1
flying_ford_anglia says, She could work and her husband could look
after the kids
gypsycaine says, lol Neil!
siriusgeologist says, yar right!
gypsycaine says, I want a little girl yet.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Not if her husband is out savaing the
world
selah_1977 says, Jeralyn... wow! How are you dealing with the family
pressure (if any)?
flying_ford_anglia says, Can you see Harry as a househusband?
skaprincess27 says, Poor guy.
selah_1977 says, Neil--I could!
selah_1977 says, j/k
siriusgeologist says, errrr ...no
gypsycaine says, I could--finally, he's got peace!
voicelady_2000 says, No pressure at all! We're very selfish of our
time together.
skaprincess27 says, Instead of Voldie, he's got to face the Terrible
Two's.
skaprincess27 says, IMO, same fright factor.
siriusgeologist says, that is so much worse
flying_ford_anglia says, Retired uberwizard takes up childcare and
embroidery....
selah_1977 says, LOL!
siriusgeologist says, hehehehehehe
voicelady_2000 laughs out loud
fizzwhizbee says, LOL
siriusgeologist says, brb...the 2 you wails
siriusgeologist says, thats 2 year old

Your buddy jtemp1eton is on pager
skaprincess27 says, Then he;d give them all to Ron.
selah_1977 says, or Gryffindor red and gold!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I dunno why Molly even HAS maroon
yarn: it doesn't go with ANYONE in her family
flying_ford_anglia says, So, Hermione's career - any ideas?
gypsycaine says, could Gryff be maroon-red?
fizzwhizbee says, Maybe she's color blind!
selah_1977 says, Rita--some sort of gift or donation, perhaps?
skaprincess27 says, Maybe it was on sale... that explains a lot of
strange purchases
voicelady_2000 says, *She* probably likes the color, therefore any
offspring should, too!
gypsycaine says, I like that idea, alicia.
selah_1977 says, Neil: This is fanfic talking, but she *will* have
Dr. in front of her name unless something changes.
fizzwhizbee says, Hermione: first Muggle born headmistress of Hogwarts
gypsycaine says, I agreee with that.
voicelady_2000 says, Kind of like my mother: I'm cold, so *you* put
on a sweater.
flying_ford_anglia says, Professor, maybe?
selah_1977 says, either as a professor, or maybe a lawyer
gypsycaine says, she's the type not to stop until that's there.
skaprincess27 says, I'm tired, so you'er going to bed.
skaprincess27 says, *you're
voicelady_2000 says, Exactly.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, maybe there already ready has been a
Muggle born headmistress of Hogwarts
flying_ford_anglia says, I can see her as Minister of Magic.
fizzwhizbee says, Possible, but I am guessing no...
selah_1977 says, What about (neglected) Ron?
fizzwhizbee says, Ron will teach DADA
catlady_de_los_angeles says, how long could she stand putting her
research aside in order to do administration?
selah_1977 says, Couldn't he be the househusband?
gypsycaine says, poor Ron.
skaprincess27 says, Fred and George's guinea pig
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I htink Ron would be a good stay-at-
home daddy

voicelady_2000 says, Harry will, though...
skaprincess27 says, Yeah, because I am so known for my ransom acts of
pyromaania
gypsycaine says, I'll save at this spot.
selah_1977 says, It would make things too simple... Ron can't die.
fizzwhizbee says, Harry will die?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Maybe they will all die
voicelady_2000 says, I think so.
selah_1977 says, Jeralyn, thou speaketh blasphemy!
siriusgeologist says, Nah...
flying_ford_anglia says, JKR needs to show that Ron can
excel..somehow
€ hert0661isme says, cool - I have no idea what caused it but is
back working again
voicelady_2000 says, I know...
skaprincess27 says, At something besides chess.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, It wouldn't make things too simple. Too
black-and-white, yes -- but HP is very black-and-white anyway.
fizzwhizbee says, Harry will lose his powers, which is why Hermione
will never consider...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Being the first to die heroically is a
way of excelling
fizzwhizbee says, marrying him
Your buddy betts_65656 is on pager
selah_1977 says, I think he has *much* better people skills than
Harry *or* Hermione.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Neil -- yes, he'll excel and sacrifice
himself. Yeah, what Rita said
gypsycaine says, do they have a wizard-army?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Magical Law Enforcement.
flying_ford_anglia says, An excellent death, but he won't be able
to relish it?
Your buddy brujah_rant_room_gm is on pager
Your buddy brujah_rant_room_gm has gone off pager
selah_1977 says, Pippin--where did that theory come from?
fizzwhizbee says, The theory is all mine
flying_ford_anglia says, He could die being excellent at
something ---- in bed with Hermione?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Has anyone else realised that the acronym
for the next book will be OOP? And members of said order will be OOPs?
siriusgeologist says, neil!!!!!
selah_1977 says, <-----------throwing a rubber Quidditch club at Neil
fizzwhizbee says, John!!!!
flying_ford_anglia says, Just the one night, Carole...
siriusgeologist says, hehehehehe
skaprincess27 says, *closes eyes as members of the h/h association
descend on poor neil like flies on you-know-what*
voicelady_2000 says, I'd like a nice Phoenix - medium rare - with
some Chardonnay, please.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I think it was Dave H was spent a long
time last summer telling us that in the end, HP will not die but will
lose his powers and have to live as a muggle.
gypsycaine says, Lori started that, Carol, so why be surprised?
skaprincess27 says, Would you like fries with that?
flying_ford_anglia says, Oh, I'm a bit H/H myself, y'know...
voicelady_2000 says, Yes, please!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, (drum riff for Jeralyn)
skaprincess27 says, Super-sized?
voicelady_2000 says, Thank you - I'll be here all week.
gypsycaine says, I am still a R/Harry.
siriusgeologist says, I wasn't complaing about the R/H
connotations...just my puritan eyes!
selah_1977 says, It could happen, Dee, but I don't think so.
gypsycaine says, I don't think so either.
flying_ford_anglia says, BRB - the food is cooked now....
selah_1977 says, Hey Carole, I was!
gypsycaine says, I just like causing trouble.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Actually, Dee has a point...that "lovers'
tiff" in GoF...could be...
johnwalton_crazyivan says, (vbeg)
skaprincess27 says, Yeah. Bare ankles are just the beginning.
selah_1977 says, It really is feasible... but like I said, I don't
think JKR will do it.
selah_1977 says, Not saying that *we* shouldn't, though.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I like Ha/Ro, and it's okay for H, who
hasn't even noticed whether he HAS an orientation yet
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Aw, shucks, Ebony. How about "Book 7:
Harry Potter and the Sudden Realisation"?
skaprincess27 says, LOL!
selah_1977 says, And marry Hermione off to Ginny. This way, you
still keep it in the family... not the way *I'd* like to see things
go, but there you have it.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, but Ron is being so extremely
heterosexual in GoF (and even in PoA, looking down Madam Rosmerta's
neckline)
gypsycaine says, I think the only problem in the one book title on
the list is if it's Harry that's transgendered!
skaprincess27 says, Maybe JKR should just have all three of them get
married to each other.
fizzwhizbee says, So much for Harry Potter and the Babes of Hogwarts
catlady_de_los_angeles says, that if he's faking it, he's in deep
denial
johnwalton_crazyivan says, "Gee, I've never shown any romantic
interest in anybody but Cho. I know! I'll find Draco dead sexy,
despite the fact we're worst enemies, and go out with him!"
skaprincess27 says, extemely heterosexual meaning perverted? ^_^
selah_1977 says, Ron/Harry and Hermione/Ginny for those who feel as
if you just have to have both H and H in the Weasley family. NOT!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Why not?
gypsycaine says, Rita, I dated a few that acted that way. One's
living openly in Columbus, the other is Virgina Slim.
selah_1977 says, Pippin--I am just kidding! I still want my calendar!
skaprincess27 says, John-- it worked for Romeo and Juliet, just not
in that particular way...
johnwalton_crazyivan :squints at the last two words of Dee's last
line:: Oh, that says "Virginia". ::smutty grin:: :P
selah_1977 says, I think that Virginia could be Ginny's real name
(per chat last week).
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Yeah, but Romeo never got Juliet turned
into a ferret.
gypsycaine says, the latter wasn't that good at sex, so it made
sense....grins.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Alicia-Sue: not perverted, just
obnoxious and adolescent
skaprincess27 says, Yeah, Shakespeare had to cut that line.
skaprincess27 says, I.e, perverted. ^_^
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Good Queen Bess disapproved, I think.
gypsycaine says, bouncing ferrets were bad on the boards?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Yeah. The Puritans meant that they
couldn't cast real ferrets either, they had to use weasels in drag.
fizzwhizbee says, I was thinking MWPP should do The Tempest
skaprincess27 says, LOL!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, LOL John
gypsycaine says, weasels in drag. lol
selah_1977 says, LOL, Pippin...
skaprincess27 says, *snickers at mention of "weasel"*
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Okay, PIppin, tell use the casting,
who is Caliban?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Alicia, behave
fizzwhizbee says, Snape of course
skaprincess27 says, ^_^
Your buddy immortal_dragon_evernight is in chat
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Alicia: why weasel?
skaprincess27 says, I have a weasel obsession.
flying_ford_anglia says, Lily as Miranda?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Uh oh...rapidly turning into an AA
meeting...
fizzwhizbee says, Yes Neil
skaprincess27 says, It's my nickname, to the point that some of my
teachers slip and call me that.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, I've never heard of weasels as pets,
only ferrets
skaprincess27 says, <-- never read the Tempest. Quick summary?
johnwalton_crazyivan says, "Hi, my name's Alicia and I have a weasel
obsession." ::sounds of clapping::
Your buddy immortal_dragon_evernight leaves chat
Your buddy immortal_dragon_evernight is in chat
skaprincess27 says, No one eould want to moderate that meeting.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Alicia: Hubris, nemesis, catharsis.
skaprincess27 says, *would
gypsycaine says, had a weasel in the house, but we eventually
chased it out again iwth a broom. Poor thing.
Your buddy immortal_dragon_evernight leaves chat
skaprincess27 says, Ah...
gypsycaine says, cute little thing.
fizzwhizbee says, Wizard and his innocent daughter shipwrecked on a
desert island
selah_1977 says, I actually know someone who owns a pure white
ferret. My mother's sig. other--keeps it in the basement.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, Not bad to be a weasel: long and
skinny and slinky,
fizzwhizbee says, * exiled on a desert island
catlady_de_los_angeles says, flexible and can get into lots of
things and places
fizzwhizbee says, joined by a crew of shipwrecked sailors.
flying_ford_anglia says, Dumbo as Prospero then?
skaprincess27 says, The weasel thing was a completely unsolicited
nickname-- my friend wanted to be obnoxious-- so I figured, "If you
xcan't beat 'em, punch 'em, then join 'em."
johnwalton_crazyivan says, See, I could never warm to weasels after
watching The Wind In The Willows. Neil'll understand.
fizzwhizbee says, Right, neil, again
selah_1977 says, Someone has *got* to write the Tempest/MWPP
crossover...
johnwalton_crazyivan says, They had David Jason (A Touch of Frost)
doing these horrible nasty accents for the Evil Weasels.
skaprincess27 says, Evil Weasels?
flying_ford_anglia says, Yeah - the Death Eaters of WitW
skaprincess27 says, Sounds intriguing.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Yeah, from Wind in the Willows.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, An article in Natural History by a
stoat resaercher (that's another mustelid) told of doing field
research with a vole researching colleage.
€ hert0661isme says, Does anyone know who Serpentese? Or has
anyone
read her fics?
skaprincess27 says, I've heard of her
catlady_de_los_angeles says, the colleage spent a very long day
putting radio trackers into a bunch of voles.
skaprincess27 says, She actually was just voted into the Teenage
Witches
skaprincess27 says, How, pray tell, do you put radio trackers in
cvoles?
skaprincess27 says, *voles.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, and, following the radio signals, was
not pleased the next day when one stoat killed and ate all his voles
in 15 minutse
gypsycaine says, (what are voles?)
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Can you get teenage wizards in the Teenage
Witches? ::grin::
voicelady_2000 leaves
€ hert0661isme says, John - behave!
skaprincess27 says, Could try.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, Dee, kinda like mice.
catlady_de_los_angeles says, altho the stoat reserach was thrielled
with this evidence of stoat effeicney
skaprincess27 says, ^_^
€ hert0661isme says, She was demanding that I write a fic
selah_1977 says, The Teenage Witches sounds like some sort of weird
secret society...
catlady_de_los_angeles says, vole = like a big mouse. radio
trackers = injected subcutaneously
gypsycaine says, (and stoats?)
skaprincess27 says, This thing about voles and radio trackers being
inserted into them is bringing to ind scary images of Superglue
torture.
€ hert0661isme says, did not know what I had done to be so
famous
and suddenly be in all kinds of fics
catlady_de_los_angeles says, It is a weird kind of secret society
johnwalton_crazyivan says, ((LMAO, Simon! I didn't see the double
entendre in that one!))
€ hert0661isme says, Had me LOLing!
catlady_de_los_angeles says, stoats are like weasels and ferrets
and polecats and minks = mustelids
selah_1977 says, I didn't either John... until you pointed it out...
skaprincess27 says, It's a Secret Society of People Who Are Simply
Too Sick to Be Allowed.
johnwalton_crazyivan says, <-- points at Simon -- his fault!
selah_1977 says, who are the Teenage Witches?
catlady_de_los_angeles says, The authors of Draco Dexter
johnwalton_crazyivan says, <-- listens to the pin drop
catlady_de_los_angeles says, too much sex on their minds
skaprincess27 says, *hangs head in shame*
€ hert0661isme says, I was quite glad of the timing - one minute
later and I would have been holding a cup of tea and would have
dropped it!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, They're VERY good...er...bad.
selah_1977 says, I know what they write... they're on my faves
page... but who are they?
€ hert0661isme says, Silly teenage girls?
siriusgeologist says, and we were worrying about corrupting teens
with ASA
skaprincess27 says, Myself, Cassie Claire, Someone the First, rave,
Rosalind McClure, and a few others. Don't ask how it got started...
selah_1977 says, individual names, thanks.
€ hert0661isme says, We should be worrying about the teens
corrupting us!
selah_1977 says, oh, okay!
johnwalton_crazyivan says, <-- guesses that Carole isn't on the
HPSlash list...
skaprincess27 says, LOL!
siriusgeologist says, really!
skaprincess27 says, ASA isn't anywhere near the corruption level.
Don't worry about a thing.
siriusgeologist says, nope can't stand to see Sirius with a guy
selah_1977 says, I actually browsed a few of those lists... and
backed away slowly. I thought I'd read it all... guess not.
