*** Now talking in #TOTGM
<GMonkey> What?!  No pictures?!
* GMonkey is bummed
<BabyRain> Sorry. :)
*** BabyRain sets mode: +o GMonkey
<GMonkey> Yeah.  No beep.
<BabyRain> brb
<GMonkey> otay
<BabyRain> I'm back.
<GMonkey> Yippee!
<GMonkey> LaLa's making WAV files.
<BabyRain> I put some bagels in the toaster. :)
<GMonkey> Be afraid.  Be very afraid. :)
<GMonkey> Num, num.
<BabyRain> Yeah, I heard.  Well, not literally, but I heard. :)
<BabyRain> So, who are we expecting today?
<GMonkey> I should make something for lunch, but I'm too tired.
<GMonkey> Dunno.
<GMonkey> Whoever shows up, shows up.
<BabyRain> And you said *I* was philosophical. :)
<GMonkey> At least I didn't have to steal it from the CBC. :)
<BabyRain> Nasty Monkey Woman.
<GMonkey> Sorry. :(
<BabyRain> That's okay. :)
<GMonkey> But you know I had to take the opening you gave me. 
:)
<BabyRain> Oh, I forgot to hang up my flag.
<GMonkey> You have a flag?
<BabyRain> Yes.  The federal government gave it to me.  But 
they took so long to get it here, we figured it wasn't 
coming, so we didn't get a pole. :(  
<GMonkey> Does the government give all its citizens flags for 
Flag Day?
<BabyRain> If they apply, yes.  Sheila Copps (minister for 
heritage and culture) started an initiative to get one 
million more flags flying in canada by today.
<GMonkey> Uh-huh.  Don't those government folks have anything 
better to do? :)
<BabyRain> I got mine last month, addressed to Karen Kraglund, 
so I must have requested it before last May 18! :)
<GMonkey> Now that's efficiency. :)
<BabyRain> What makes you think our govt is that much different 
from yours? :)
<GMonkey> God help us all!!! :)
<BabyRain> :)
<GMonkey> So what should I have for lunch?
<BabyRain> At least Brain Baloney is gone.
<BabyRain> Soup.
<GMonkey> Dang it!  I forgot to buy baloney. :)
<BabyRain> Do you have mustard?
<GMonkey> I'm getting tired of soup.  Maybe a sandwich of some 
sort.  Something low maintenance.
<GMonkey> Nope, all out of mustard.
<BabyRain> Bagels?
<GMonkey> Yep, just bought them, but I was saving them for 
breakfast this week.
<GMonkey> Maybe I'll just make PB&J.
<BabyRain> Pasta Burger and Juice?
<GMonkey> I need the sugar.  I'm falling asleep here.
<GMonkey> zzzzzzzzzzzz
<BabyRain> Sorry. :)
<GMonkey> Not your fault.  I'm just really tired today.
<BabyRain> Me too.
<GMonkey> Maybe we should take a nap before the chat.
<BabyRain> I missed most of Basic Black this morning.  I 
overslept.
<GMonkey> What's Basic Black?
<BabyRain> Do you have an alarm clock?
<GMonkey> Yes, but I never use it.
<BabyRain> Basic Black is one of the adio shows I listen to.  
It's hosted by Arthur Black, a humourist/journalist.
<BabyRain> radio shows
<GMonkey> Ah.
<BabyRain> I listen to Basic Black, then the Great Eastern, 
then Double Exposure, then Quirks and Quarks, and then DNTO 
(Definitely Not the Opera)
<GMonkey> Ah.
<BabyRain> You'd like it. :)
<GMonkey> Ah.
<BabyRain> If you were Canadian.
<GMonkey> Ah.
<BabyRain> Our culture is so inaccessible to lesser creatiures. 
:)
<GMonkey> Ah.
<GMonkey> Ah.
* BabyRain explains for the benefit of the mythical log-readers 
that the Canadian culture theme is something that has carried 
over from email.
<BabyRain> Now try saying "Bay".
<GMonkey> Ah. Ah. Ah.
<GMonkey> Why?
<BabyRain> I'm teaching you the alphabet in French.  It's the 
first step in learning to appreciate Canadian culture. :)
* GMonkey would appreciate a nice long nap much more.
<BabyRain> Well, you only have 45 min.
<GMonkey> I know. :(
<BabyRain> Unless you want me to be the host this week
* BabyRain rubs her hands together and cackles evilly
<GMonkey> Oh, sure, trying to usurp my power, huh?
<BabyRain> MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
<GMonkey> That's it!  You drugged my coffee, didn't you?
<GMonkey> That's why I'm so tired.
<BabyRain> Perhaps.  Or perhaps you're secretly a ******. :)
<GMonkey> Dang it!  I miss all the fun. :)
<BabyRain> Speaking of fun, my notify list just told me that 
there is someone called Sc on #funfactory
<BabyRain> Heheheh.
<GMonkey> Doubt it.
<GMonkey> Go and ask. :)
<BabyRain> Dare you. :)
<GMonkey> Triple dog dare you! :)
<BabyRain> Nonuple iguana dare you! :)
<GMonkey> Besides, if it was *my* SC, he'd have e-mailed me. :)
<BabyRain> Weasel. :)
<GMonkey> Na-na-na-na-na-na!!! :)
<BabyRain> Oh!  My bagels!
<BabyRain> brb
<GMonkey> Okay.  Think I'll go downstairs and get a little 
something to nibble on.
<BabyRain> back
<GMonkey> me too
<GMonkey> Did you save your bagels?
<BabyRain> Yes. :)
<GMonkey> Just finished my sandwich and now have moved onto the 
orange.
<BabyRain> You know, if cream cheese were fat-free, I'd look 
like Kate Moss.
<GMonkey> We have fat-free cream cheese in the US.
<BabyRain> Yeah, well ... You don
<BabyRain> t have CBC. 
<GMonkey> I'd rather have fat-free food. :)
<GMonkey> Today I tried fat free, double chocolate yogurt.
<GMonkey> It tasted just like pudding.
<BabyRain> Actually, I've heard that because our standards are 
much toughr, your fat-free food would be lableed low-fat 
here.
<BabyRain> Oh heavens.  I shouldn't type with a bagel in my 
hand.
<GMonkey> Who cares as long as it's nummy. :)
<GMonkey> I wonder how LaLa's coming along with her WAV files?
<BabyRain> Not good, I'm afraid.  I'm trying to help her via 
email but it's hard without the computer in front of me.
<GMonkey> Ah.
<BabyRain> (sigh)
<GMonkey> What's wrong?
<BabyRain> Only a silly raindrop like me would try to help 
someone with a computer a continent away.
<BabyRain> 50 states?  Or 52?
<GMonkey> That's because you're a nice raindrop.
<GMonkey> 50!
<BabyRain> Right. :)
<BabyRain> It's because Alaska and Hawaii came in later that 
confuses me.
<GMonkey> Or technically 46 states and 4 commonwealths.
<BabyRain> Oh, don't do this to me. :(
<GMonkey> Massachusetts, Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvannia 
are commonwealths and "states".
<GMonkey> Puerto Rico is just a commonwealth.
<GMonkey> No, go impress your Canadian friends with your 
knowledge. :)
<BabyRain> And your senate is elected, right?
<GMonkey> No=now
<GMonkey> Yep.
<BabyRain> Heathens. :)
<GMonkey> As of 1913, I believe.
<GMonkey> Who be heathens?
<BabyRain> The senates. :)
<GMonkey> Why be they heathens?
<BabyRain> They're not doing all they can to get TOTGM back on 
the air.
<GMonkey> HEATHENS!!!
* BabyRain knew she could bring this around somehow.
<GMonkey> Should we have a topic today?
<GMonkey> BTW, prior to 1913, the state legislatures chose 
their U.S. Senators.
<BabyRain> So far we've covered bagels, politics, Canadian 
culture, coups, and ...
<GMonkey> There are 5,280 feet in a mile.
<BabyRain> There a thousand metres in a kilometre. :)
<BabyRain> a=are
<BabyRain> Actually, I think I meant to type There's
<GMonkey> There have been 42 presidents of the US.
<BabyRain> Name them. :)
<GMonkey> Washington, J. Adams, Jefferson, J.Q. Adams...
<GMonkey> In 1066, William the Conqueror defeated Harold at the 
Battle of Hastings.
<BabyRain> Uh-huh.
<GMonkey> In Fourteen hundred and ninety two, Columbus sailed 
the ocean blue.
<BabyRain> But I don't think he was a US President. :)
<GMonkey> Help!  I can't stop rattling off all this stuff they 
made us learn in school!!
<BabyRain> In 1597, John Cabot discovered Newfoundland.
<GMonkey> In 1983, the weenies at ABC murdered TOTGM!!!
<BabyRain> WEENIES!  HEATHENS!!!!
<GMonkey> BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*** KidLaLa (Pohl@140.211.91.154) has joined #TOTGM
* BabyRain passes out in shock.
<GMonkey> Hi!
*** GMonkey sets mode: +o KidLaLa
<KidLaLa> Morning.
<BabyRain> LaLa, Trishie just said a bad word.
<GMonkey> They deserved it!!
<KidLaLa> Again?
<GMonkey> I called the ABC weenies BASTARDS!!!!!!!
<KidLaLa> So what's new?  :)
<BabyRain> But she pretends to be so pure.
<GMonkey> I've never pretened to be pure.
<KidLaLa> That's okay, we all know better.
<GMonkey> It's just that compared to you, BR, I'm Snow White. 
:)
<KidLaLa> BR, when I did a search for *zip.*, it found 2291 
matches!!
<KidLaLa> It lied.
<KidLaLa> Hello, hello!!  Is this thing on?
* BabyRain is actually Rose Red.
<GMonkey> Yep.
-> [KidLaLa] PING
<BabyRain> Hi, LaLa.
<GMonkey> I've got 0 sec ping with you, LaLa.
-> [BabyRain] PING
<BabyRain> No luck on finding the zip file, I guess, then.
<KidLaLa> So now you're a wine, BR? Excuse me, RR?
<KidLaLa> Nyet, sigh.  Monday I guess.
<KidLaLa> MW, 0 ping way good.
<BabyRain> Rose Red?  You never heard the story of Snow White 
and Rose Red and the bear?
<GMonkey> Is this a soft porn flick? :)
<KidLaLa> Of course, but it's more fun to think you've named 
yourself after a brand of wine.
<BabyRain> No, it's not a soft porn flick. :)
<KidLaLa> MW, stop pulling us down into the gutter!!  :)
<KidLaLa> And B
<BabyRain> Well, we have Red Rose tea here in Canada.  First 
brewed here in Saint John.  The birthplace of the tea bag.
<GMonkey> Sorry.  I'm thinking like BR again. :)
<KidLaLa> Well, okay then.
<KidLaLa> BR, sorry, not buying.
<BabyRain> Not buying what?  The tea.  That's because you can't 
get it down there.
* KidLaLa thinks the only grosser than coffee is tea.
* BabyRain drinks tea but not coffee
<KidLaLa> Poor BabyRain.  :(
<KidLaLa> MW, are you still on your water kick?
<GMonkey> Too cheap and lazy to buy soda. :)
<BabyRain> I actually went 48 hourswithout DP.
<KidLaLa> BR, you slept for 48 hours straight?
<GMonkey> My God!
<BabyRain> Leanne Alert!
<KidLaLa> Run away, run away.  :)
*** Volterra (danswler@sdts3-28.znet.com) has joined #totgm
<GMonkey> Hi, Leanne!
* Volterra enters, sniffling
<Volterra> hi all!
*** GMonkey sets mode: +o Volterra
<BabyRain> She heard you guys.
<Volterra> non-Komical?
<KidLaLa> How do, Leanne.  Be you ill?
<GMonkey> What's the matter, Leanne?
<Volterra> I be wid a code
<BabyRain> Non-Komical.  This isn't a CUSeeMe channel. :)
<Volterra> ah :)
<GMonkey> Don't tell me, Leanne, you haven't checked the board 
out this week.
<Volterra> that ComicChat is silly
<KidLaLa> BR can make you some hot tea, Leanne.
<Volterra> I haven't checked out the board this week
<BabyRain> Red Rose.  The best.
<Volterra> oops, I wasn't supposed to tell you that
<GMonkey> I asked you not to tell me that. :)
<Volterra> HubbyDan says hi to you all!
<BabyRain> You haven't looked at my pretty pictures?
<KidLaLa> Howdy to Hubby Dan.
<GMonkey> Hi, Hubby Dan!
* BabyRain is genuinely hurt.
<GMonkey> Thanks for untying Leanne long enough for her to chat 
with us. :)
<KidLaLa> MW says their her pictures BR.
<GMonkey> Do not!
<KidLaLa> their = they're
<BabyRain> Not when I'm done with them, they're not.
<BabyRain> And yes you do, GM.  I've seen the quote.
<KidLaLa> MW, you say so right on the Board.  :)
<GMonkey> That's why they're called Karen's Kwazy Komics.
<Volterra> BR: I'll go and do it now .... I may be gone for a 
few minutes. Mosaic takes a while to load on my li'l Classic
<GMonkey> Where?
<BabyRain> You said I took "your" pictures, added some dialogue 
...
<GMonkey> I did?
<Volterra> HubbyDan laughs and says I'm typing with my toes :)
<KidLaLa> And some of them were Jeff's!!
<Volterra> brb
<GMonkey> Well, Jeff gave them to me, sorta. :)
<KidLaLa> Yeah, right, uh huh.
<BabyRain> Uh-huh.  Likely story.
<GMonkey> Well, Karen got them from me.
<BabyRain> How do you know?
<GMonkey> Because you told me so.
<KidLaLa> Yeah!
<BabyRain> Ha!  You gullible simian chick. :)
<KidLaLa> LOL
<KidLaLa> An avian simian, now there's something you don't see 
very often.
<BabyRain> But I bet you would have on TOTGM in the second 
season.
<KidLaLa> Probably, once Tom had his hands on the show...  :)
<KidLaLa> Did you guys get that cute heart from him for 
Valentines?
<BabyRain> He sent it to you, too?
<KidLaLa> I'm sure he sent it to all his ladies.  :)
* BabyRain is now convinced that nothing is sacred.
<Volterra> ok, so where do you look?
<KidLaLa> Not with these people, BR.
* Volterra didn't get one :(
<BabyRain> It's on the BB, Volterra.
* GMonkey didn't get a heart. :(
<Volterra> but then I've never mailed him.
<GMonkey> No it isn't, BR.
<Volterra> atest BB?
<KidLaLa> Leanne, well there you go.
<BabyRain> It's a bottomless pit, Leanne. :)
<Volterra> where where????
<BabyRain> What isn't, GM?
<GMonkey> The heart isn't on the BB because Tom never sent it 
to me. :(
<BabyRain> I was referring to the Komics.
<GMonkey> Ah.
<KidLaLa> Mass confusion reigns!!
<BabyRain> WAH!
<GMonkey> Leanne, has the whole BB loaded yet?
<Volterra> Komics on BB?
<KidLaLa> It's like the Pinto thing all over again.
<GMonkey> Yes.
<BabyRain> Komics on BB.
<GMonkey> And Leanne, have you got your package yet?
<Volterra> GM: not even close. This is going to take ages ... 
bear with me
<Volterra> GM: we're getting it today :)
<GMonkey> Yay!!!
<BabyRain> YAY!
<KidLaLa> Yay!  (What am I yaying about?)
<BabyRain> Leanne's parcel.
<GMonkey> Leanne's gonna get her tapes today.
<KidLaLa> Not that I mind yaying.
<KidLaLa> How do you know Leanne, a yellow slip from the PO?
<BabyRain> Yellow slips?
<GMonkey> It's an American thing. :)
<KidLaLa> To let you know you have a package to pick up.
<BabyRain> Oh. Ours are white. :)
<KidLaLa> Either that or she can read her mail box's mind.
<Volterra> yellow slip :)
<KidLaLa> You bland Canadians.  :(
* BabyRain is lonely
<KidLaLa> :)
<BabyRain> Je suis la seule canadienne ici!
<KidLaLa> You're the what canadienne there?
<BabyRain> Or something like that.
<BabyRain> only
<KidLaLa> That's what I thought.  :)
<KidLaLa> Where are all your kids?
<BabyRain> My kids?
<KidLaLa> Dog, cat, rats, mice, etc.
<BabyRain> In bed.
<KidLaLa> Together?
<BabyRain> Except for the rodents.
<Volterra> gods, I've a lot of catching up to do
<Volterra> are we expecting anyone else?
<KidLaLa> Yes you do Leanne.  :)
<GMonkey> Nobody's confirmed or denied.
<BabyRain> I've invited Mr. Greene.  I don't think he has the 
blacksmith today.
<KidLaLa> You're not fixated on him now, are you, BR?  :)
<BabyRain> No.
<KidLaLa> Just checking.
<BabyRain> Although he'd like me to be. :)
<KidLaLa> You know he would.  :)
<BabyRain> Uh-huh. :)
<GMonkey> He's a guy!! :)
<Volterra> you've written more fic, BR :)
* KidLaLa really likes this latest installment.
<GMonkey> How long has it been since you've checked the board, 
Leanne?
<BabyRain> It's been a week.  I wrote that last bit last 
Sunday.
<Volterra> "This isn't Boragora"?????
<Volterra> bloody ages :)
<BabyRain> Nope.
<GMonkey> brb
<KidLaLa> BR, you should read what Lorie's written (just for 
me). :)
<BabyRain> I have competition?  What a day. First I suffer 
insults upon my culture, andnow I find I have competition 
... (sigh)
<BabyRain> What is it? :)
<KidLaLa> Not competition.  She just writes me a few 
Lesley/Corky "scenes" for my amusement.
<BabyRain> Ask her if you can share. :)
<KidLaLa> Already have.  You really need to read the stuff.
<BabyRain> Is it funny?
<KidLaLa> Depends on what you mean by funny.
<GMonkey> back
* Volterra is now loading the Komics :)
<BabyRain> That's what I meany by funny.
<KidLaLa> Personally, I think describing me as lithe is very 
funny.
<KidLaLa> And where did you run off to, MW?
<BabyRain> Probably took a nap. :)
<GMonkey> Potty break. :)
<GMonkey> Would you like details? :)
<BabyRain> Ah, she went to the LGR.
<KidLaLa> I thought she was smoking something.  :P
<BabyRain> Or being a ******.
<KidLaLa> That's you, BR.
<BabyRain> You are most welcome, LaLa. :)
<GMonkey> If I were being a ******, BR, I'd be gone at least an 
hour. ;)
<BabyRain> Depends on who you were with. :)
<GMonkey> Don't worry, I'd make sure it was at least an hour. 
:)
<KidLaLa> According to BR, if it was Jake, it'd be hours!!
<GMonkey> Oh, yes, Jake definitely had stamina!
<BabyRain> Hours and hours and hours and hours ...
<BabyRain> ... and hours ...
<KidLaLa> Oh, I see, you've both slept with him.  :)
<GMonkey> We're not the sort to kiss and tell. :)
<BabyRain> ... and hours ...
<KidLaLa> But you do anyway.
<GMonkey> Well, I'm not anyway. :)
<KidLaLa> BR, not stop that.  Or rather, make him stop.  :0
<BabyRain> ... and hours.
<BabyRain> :)
<KidLaLa> And with the animals in the bed, really BR!!
<GMonkey> I wonder how far Leanne's gotten.
<BabyRain> i have a question for the Monkiacs.
<GMonkey> Yes?
<KidLaLa> Well if I see them, I'll let them know.
<BabyRain> The hatch at the front of the Goose -- do you climb 
under the instrument panel to get to it, or what?
<KidLaLa> Yep.
<GMonkey> Looks that way to me.
<BabyRain> Does anyone know for sure?
<Volterra> LOL!!!!!!!
<BabyRain> What, Leanne?
<KidLaLa> Actually, you go in the front hatch and are 
automatically beamed to the cockpit.
* Volterra has seen them all.
<Volterra> :)
<GMonkey> By jove, I think she's got to the end! :)
<BabyRain> Which one was your favourite?
<Volterra> I have an idea for one :)
<BabyRain> What?
<Volterra> The last one, of course, and the tied up one and the 
frog one :)
<BabyRain> I knew you like the tied-up one.  You love her 
singing so much. :)
<Volterra> There's a nice pic from Jeff of SC in his white suit 
leaning on a rail, know the one?
<BabyRain> Yup.
<BabyRain> Email your idea
<KidLaLa> You know they do!!
<Volterra> ok :)
* BabyRain wants it to be a surprise. :)
<KidLaLa> So what did SC have to say this week, MW?
<GMonkey> Nothing much.  He mentioned that in LA "7th Heaven" 
actually beat out the programs on CBS and ABC this week.
<KidLaLa> Honest and for true?
<BabyRain> Cool.
<Volterra> well anything can beat what the ABC has on at the 
moment
<KidLaLa> During sweeps month.  Wow, I'm impressed.
<GMonkey> I don't know if it's hones or for true, but that's 
what he said.
<GMonkey> Said the show finished 3rd in its time slot with an 
11 share.
<Volterra> wow :)
<KidLaLa> He's obviously very proud.  Any word on renewal yet?
<GMonkey> That means that 11% of all people watching TV in the 
LA area were watching the show.
<GMonkey> No word yet.  No announcement will be made for about 
3 months.
<KidLaLa> Three months!!!  Strangely long in coming.
<GMonkey> I asked him what he thought the chances were, but he 
hasn't replied yet.
<BabyRain> Surprise, surprise
* BabyRain is bitter
<GMonkey> Not really, LaLa.  The network's usually make their 
announcements in May.
<BabyRain> in a nice way
<KidLaLa> Gee, BR, your bitter and lonely.  Might be the reason 
you're a ******.  :)
<BabyRain> I'm a ****** because I have a wonderful husband.  
He's a great inspiration.
* GMonkey giggles
<KidLaLa> Ah, I see said the blind man.
* KidLaLa knew MW was a giggler.
* GMonkey knows that Doug's heart is in the right place. ;)
<KidLaLa> And did Doug like his oatmeal cookies?
* BabyRain did a lot of giggling last night when Doug gave her 
her Valentine's Day card.
<BabyRain> He liked his cookies.  And the fact that the kitchen 
counters were excavated.
<KidLaLa> Happy Doug.
<Volterra> excavated?
<BabyRain> Every dish in my house was dirty.
<KidLaLa> You're the only dishwasher?
<GMonkey> I tried to convince her to make Pepsi do the dishes.
<BabyRain> Well, sort of.
<KidLaLa> I mean no appliance dishwasher?
<BabyRain> No.  No dishwasher.
<KidLaLa> I have a portable one with a butcher block top you 
can have.  :)
<GMonkey> Do they have automatic dishwashers in Canada? :)
<BabyRain> Has anyone here actuially been in a Goose?
<KidLaLa> BR, I have.
<Volterra> nope
* GMonkey runs from the angry Canuck!
<BabyRain> That question is really bugging me.
<BabyRain> GM, actually, we have elephants outside our windows 
and they do it.
<GMonkey> I've been in a jet, but no goose. :(
<BabyRain> Where's the Gneech when we need him?
<BabyRain> Heck, Jeff could tell us.
<KidLaLa> During my employment with the FAA, I got to go in all 
kinds of cool planes.
<KidLaLa> BR, tell us what?
<BabyRain> But not a Goose?
<KidLaLa> Yes, I've been in a Goose many times.
<BabyRain> How you get to the front hatch.
<GMonkey> Cool!  And does Doug drive to work by putting his 
feet through the floor of the car like Fred Flintstone? :)
<BabyRain>  You've been in a Goose?!
<KidLaLa> You duck (no pun intended) under the instrument panel 
and go through an opening to the front cargo area.
<BabyRain> LaLa's been in a GOOSE!
* BabyRain bows and starts the "I'm not worthy" routine.
<KidLaLa> Didn't I send you pictures of the Gooses I've been 
in?
<BabyRain> No. (sniff)
<KidLaLa> Okay, me will now.
<BabyRain> And you wonder why I never email you. :)
<KidLaLa> :(
<BabyRain> I'm kidding.
<GMonkey> BR, are you pumping LaLa for info for the next fanfic 
installment?
<BabyRain> Why, me? (blink-blink, blink-blink)
<GMonkey> We want the next installment NOW!!! :)
<KidLaLa> BR, can't find them.  MW, do you still have them?
<BabyRain> TOUGH!!! :)
<GMonkey> Jake and Patricia have to rescue Corky and Lesley.
<BabyRain> To all the Geese we've loved before ...
<GMonkey> I think I have them, LaLa, but they're on my work PC.
<KidLaLa> They'd better not, at least not for a while...  ;)
<GMonkey> Okay.  I'll just have to distract Jake for a while. 
:)
<BabyRain> Um, actually, Pat, this might come as a surprise, 
but I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO GET A STORYLINE!
<KidLaLa> MW, well, if you happen to come across them, would 
you please send them to our favorite BR?
<KidLaLa> And who does BR get?
<Volterra> cool :)
<BabyRain> Heheheh...
<GMonkey> DON'T YOU DARE!!!!  HE'S MINE!!  MINE, MINE, MINE!!! 
:)
<KidLaLa> Is the poor little monkey doing better, BR?
* GMonkey is just an itsy-bitsy possessive
<BabyRain> I'm not sure yet. :)
<KidLaLa> Monkey in limbo, okay.
<BabyRain> So is Leanne's story, and my story, and ...
<BabyRain> Too many subplots. :)
<GMonkey> Too many Monkiacs. :)
<KidLaLa> No offense, but I'm glad I've Lorie on the side, BR.
<KidLaLa> And what about Leanne, she's all alone on Boragora 
with me gone.  Who's taking care of her?
<GMonkey> Louie will take care of her. :)
<KidLaLa> I thought he was taking care of Karen?
* Volterra is happy to play a minor role :)
<BabyRain> No one is taking care of Karen.
<GMonkey> He can take care of both of them. :)
<KidLaLa> Yet?
<BabyRain> No one will be taking care of Karen.
<GMonkey> But Karen got the last DP!
<BabyRain> Wooo-wee.
<KidLaLa> And I cant believe Willie hasn't gotten any action in 
this fanfic yet!
<KidLaLa> Course, maybe that's why he hasn't put in an 
appearance yet, he's off getting some action. :)
<GMonkey> He's been too busy giving blessings. :)
<Volterra> Willie and Karen sitting in a tree ... *grin*
<BabyRain> Heheheh.
<KidLaLa> Willie and Karen would get along great!!  Male and 
female ******.
<GMonkey> A guy can't be a ******.  That's just basic guy 
behavior. :)
<BabyRain> Willie's not my type.  I'm a very selective ******.
<KidLaLa> Yes, a guy can.
<KidLaLa> BR, you don't like cute Willie?
<BabyRain> Nope.
<GMonkey> He does lack a FC.
<KidLaLa> Cute blonde haired, blue eyed Willie?
<BabyRain> Too pale.  Too blond.
<BabyRain> Too Nazi. :)
<KidLaLa> My dad doesn't understand why I like Corky better 
than Willie.
<KidLaLa> Then again my dad thinks Princess Koji has had chest 
surgery.
<GMonkey> Doesn't your dad know that they didn't have silicone 
back in the '30s? :)
<KidLaLa> He thinks Marta has had it done.  I told him he's 
nuts.
<GMonkey> But how can you be so sure she hasn't, LaLa?
<KidLaLa> By looking at her.
<GMonkey> I'm not saying she has, but can you be 100% sure 
she's hasn't?
<Volterra> I think if you compare Pamela Anderson Lee with 
Marta the answer definitely has to be no.
<KidLaLa> Pretty damn sure.  99 and 44/100ths.
<BabyRain> Do they float in the hot tub?
<GMonkey> Guess we could ask SC. :)
<BabyRain> Apparently that's the way to tell.
<KidLaLa> MW, was that a freudian slip or did you mean Jake?  
:)
<GMonkey> No, remember in Cooked Goose?  They both shared the 
hot tub together.
<KidLaLa> Yes, dear, I know.  Never mind.
<GMonkey> Well, if you really want to know... :)
<KidLaLa> Actually that was one thing I thought was unrealistic 
about the show.
<GMonkey> What was that?
<KidLaLa> If Princess Koji was as powerful and respected and a 
big shipping magnate, etc, etc, she would have shown more 
class in her wardrobe.
<KidLaLa> She wouldn't have had such semi-slutty clothing.
<GMonkey> What was wrong with her wardrobe.  If you've got it, 
flaunt it. :)
<Volterra> she dressed classy when she went off on Shanghai and 
she wore a kimino in Naka Jima
<KidLaLa> Thanks for understanding Leanne.  :)
<BabyRain> Well, her Trying-To-Kill-Half-Brother outfit was 
okay.
<Volterra> I think it was only when she knew Jake'd be around 
she'd flaunt it :)
<GMonkey> Or take it off entirely. :)
<KidLaLa> BR, I always thought that outfit was so subdued for 
her, but it looked really good.
<BabyRain> I liked the hat. :)
* KidLaLa thinks she'll send BR a hat for her birthday.
<BabyRain> I'm fussy about my hats. :)
<KidLaLa> Like I'm not?  :)
<Volterra> the pith helmet?
<GMonkey> BR wants THE hat.
<BabyRain> Yes.  THE hat.
<KidLaLa> Leanne, the pith helmet.  (I wanted to say pith too.)
<KidLaLa> BR, has THE hat, I've seen a picture.  :)
<BabyRain> Hahaha.  BR has a talent for rearranging pixels. :)
<KidLaLa> Yes, you are quite the talent in that regard.
<BabyRain> Thank you.  Thank you very much.
<KidLaLa> Did you bow or curtsey when you said that?
<BabyRain> No. :)
<KidLaLa> Okay, just checking.
<KidLaLa> MW, did you talk to Marilyn about the chat?
<GMonkey> No, I didn't.  Why?
* BabyRain has just realized she hasn't been outside since 
Tuesday.
* BabyRain HATES winter.
<KidLaLa> Come visit BR, nice and warm here.
<BabyRain> I'd have to go outside to do that.
<Volterra> no pain no gain
<BabyRain> I prefer no pain no pain
<Volterra> :)
<KidLaLa> Spring is here.  Should be 65 today.
<KidLaLa> I can beam you directly here from your house BR.
<BabyRain> Beam me up, Lesley
<KidLaLa> Don't forget to let Doug know where you're going, so 
he doesn't worry.  :)
<BabyRain> I do not play with toys.
<BabyRain> So don't buy any on my account. :)
<KidLaLa> But you used to.
<BabyRain> I didn't play with the smurf.  I merely slept with 
it.
<KidLaLa> No foreplay?
<BabyRain> No. :)
* Volterra chuckles
<KidLaLa> Sheesh, no wonder you threw it over for Jake.
<BabyRain> ... and hours ...
* KidLaLa acknowledges she still has a giggle or two left 
inside her.
* BabyRain is exhausted
<KidLaLa> I'm not beaming you over until you shower, BR!
<BabyRain> Huh?  I had a shower this morning.
<BabyRain> Wait a minute.  I *AM* a shower! :)
* KidLaLa hopes that BR isn't thinking of becoming a punmaster.
* BabyRain is too tired to think of anything at the moment.
* Volterra is too sick to think ...
<BabyRain> I think Pat fell asleep
* BabyRain slaps GMonkey around a bit with a large trout
<Volterra> say, completely off-topic: has anyone here heard of 
Philip Quast?
<BabyRain> Nope.
<KidLaLa> Nyet.
<GMonkey> Well, if you people would say something to keep me 
entertained, I'd stay awake.
<GMonkey> :)
<BabyRain> Look, you're the host.  It's your responsibility to 
keep *us* entertained.
<Volterra> Javert in the 10th Anniv Concert Les Mis ...
<GMonkey> I'm too tired to entertain.  You can have the power, 
BR. :)
<Volterra> late nights, girls?
<GMonkey> After all, you are the world's greatest TOTGM fan. :)
<BabyRain> You are THE True Monkiac.:)
<KidLaLa> She's the Queen Monkiac.
<BabyRain> I need my mid-afternoon nap.
<GMonkey> I need a vacation. :)
<BabyRain> I need a dishwasher
<KidLaLa> You should have taken it earlier, BR.  :)
<KidLaLa> BR, I said you can have my extra one.
<BabyRain> thank you
<KidLaLa> I do them for you myself if I were there.  I like 
washing dishes.
<Volterra> I need to go to the ladies. brb
<BabyRain> Volterra is having a tea party?
<KidLaLa> Sounds like it.  Company, nice company.
<GMonkey> So that's why we're not invited. :)
<KidLaLa> Yep, only ladies.  :(
<BabyRain> LaLa, what do you think of Canadian culture?
<Volterra> back
<KidLaLa> Haven't been exposed to much of it.
<Volterra> needed to go to the loo
<KidLaLa> But didn't have to stand in a queue.
<KidLaLa> Your border guys are great!!
<BabyRain> How do you mean?
<KidLaLa> The ones I dealt with coming through last time were 
real sweethearts.
<BabyRain> Ah.
<KidLaLa> BR, from last chat, it's "hai"
<BabyRain> Ah.  Thank you.  Hai!
<KidLaLa> Atsuko told me.
<KidLaLa> MW, are you taping right now?
<GMonkey> Yep.  Sorry.
<BabyRain> I need to go buy a lottery ticket.  I need a Goose 
and a hat.
<KidLaLa> Anyone ever hear where THE Goose is headed?
<GMonkey> No. :(
<BabyRain> No. :(
<KidLaLa> Gneech is slipping in his duties.
<KidLaLa> And what about Craig?  Where's that boy been?
<GMonkey> I don't think the Seattle Seaplanes folks will tell 
anybody where the Goose is going.
<GMonkey> Dunno about Craig.
<BabyRain> They won't answer any questions from me.  At all.
<KidLaLa> Afraid some Monkiacs will hijack it no doubt.  :)
<BabyRain> They probably lurk on the BB and are familiar with 
all of us.
<KidLaLa> I think that's highly probable BR.  :)
<BabyRain> You know, if we were really as obsessed as we 
pretend to be, there would be a lot of pretty scared people 
out there.
<BabyRain> SAVE THE MONKEY!!!!
<KidLaLa> Pretend?   MWAHAHAHA.
<GMonkey> They probably are scared of us, BR. :)
<KidLaLa> I'm plenty scared.
<BabyRain> Probably scared we'll take pictures and put words in 
their mouths. :)
<KidLaLa> BR, LOL
<GMonkey> Take naughty no less. :)
<GMonkey> Take naughty pics no less. :) 
<BabyRain> Seattle Seaplane Guy: "And it's my dastardly plan to 
hide this so the Monkiacs will never find it. NEVER!"
<KidLaLa> MW, thought you meant talk naughty no less.
<KidLaLa> BR, please don't say that!!!  :(
<BabyRain> That's what I thought, too, LaLa. :)
<GMonkey> That too. :)
<BabyRain> Well, that's what it feels like.
<GMonkey> Of course, blame BR for that. :)
<KidLaLa> BR, I understand.  Booger heads.
<BabyRain> The lottery is worth $15 million tonight.  I'll 
offer them $100,000 for info.  Think that's enough bribe 
money?
<KidLaLa> I've already offered $150,000, so no, I don't.  :)
<GMonkey> Give 'em a million for the Goose!
<BabyRain> I will, once I find out where it is.
<KidLaLa> Looks like we'll have to set up two raids.  One to 
save the Monkey and one to save the Goose.
<KidLaLa> BR, you should probably be team leader for the Monkey 
raid.  :)
<BabyRain> Okay.  But I just wish someone would give it to me 
for a birthday present. :)
<KidLaLa> I would if I could afford it.  As it is, I'll have to 
concentrate on a hat.
* BabyRain grins at LaLa.
* KidLaLa grins right back.
<BabyRain> Is SC going to give you THE hat? :)
<KidLaLa> No, I mean I'll have to try and find a look-alike 
hat.  If that's okay.
* GMonkey wonders if she could convince SC to give her the hat
<BabyRain> You don't have to do that, LaLa.  It's sweet, but 
that's okay.  I'm happy to be your friend. :)
<BabyRain> GM -- probably, if you left my name out of it. :)
<KidLaLa> MW, doubtful, he needs it when he and Faye play Last 
Chance Louie.
<BabyRain> He wasn't weariing the hat in the fall-into-little-pi
eces scene. :)
<GMonkey> But it might be fun to convince him. :)
<KidLaLa> She's already put it aside for later.  :)
<BabyRain> Ah. :)
<BabyRain> I bet Tom or Jeff could get the monkey.  At least 
borrow it.
<KidLaLa> Doubtful.  :(  (IMHO)
<BabyRain> Really?  Why?
<BabyRain> Do you think Don did the unthinkable and melted it 
down for scrap?
<KidLaLa> I just don't think either of them currently has that 
close a relationship with the Big Kahuna, plus I don't think 
either one would be comfortable asking him.
<GMonkey> No, he still needs someplace to hang his coat.
* BabyRain is about to give up.
<KidLaLa> Sorry to sound so gloomy.
<KidLaLa> A commando raid is probably our best bet.  :)
<BabyRain> No offense, but that scares me. :)
<KidLaLa> It would scare me too if I were serious.  :)
<BabyRain> Well, for all we know, Don B reads the irc logs. :)
<Volterra> well, just think if Donno hadn't kept the Monkey as 
a coat hanger, where would it be now????
<GMonkey> If he does, then he's probably hidden the monkey.
<KidLaLa> Leanne, wishful thinking?  In our possession.  :)
<BabyRain> Oh well.  I guess I had to grow up and give up on my 
dreams sometime.
* BabyRain hits bottom.
<GMonkey> Poor BR.
<GMonkey> This chat sure is dragging.
<Volterra> did it hurt?
<BabyRain> Everything hurts.  I'm way too sensitive. I wonder 
how I made it to the ripe old age I am.
* BabyRain sighs deeply.
<BabyRain> Watching "7th Heaven" is going to dehydrate me one 
of these days.
<GMonkey> But you didn't cry last week.  So you can cry a lot 
next week. :)
<BabyRain> I didn't cry.  No. :)
<KidLaLa> BR, you'll survive.  And you'll desensitize a bit.  
:)
<Volterra> It is a moving show, ain't it? What are you up 
to,BR?
<BabyRain> Church was burnt.
<GMonkey> I've warned her that she's gonna cry a lot next week. 
 It's the Halloween episode.
<Volterra> I don't remember crying in the Halloween episode?
<GMonkey> You're not Babyrain. :)
<GMonkey> BR identifies with Lucy.
<GMonkey> I don't think anybody else is gonna show today.
<BabyRain> I have a question for you.
<GMonkey> Shoot.
<Volterra> ah.
<BabyRain> Why the heck didn'tthey build Hollywood somewhere 
else?  Why pick the most tectonically-unstable area of the 
US?
<GMonkey> Because it was warm, sunny and most of all, the land 
was cheap.
<BabyRain> That would do it.
<BabyRain> But still.
<KidLaLa> I give up.  The computer gremlins are not letting me 
make a .wav file.  Did you put them up to it, MW?
<GMonkey> Don't blame me!
<KidLaLa> Well you didn't seem to happy that I was planning on 
making some.
<KidLaLa> Back to the drawing board.
<GMonkey> Do you think we should end today's chat?
<GMonkey> Things are getting awfully slow.
<BabyRain> okay
<KidLaLa> Giving up a little early aren't we?
<Volterra> ok, my brain's not functioning too well ...
<GMonkey> Yeah, but it's just not quite working today.
<KidLaLa> Well, I drove all the way down here, I'm sticking 
around for a bit.
<BabyRain> At least the mythical log reeaders won't notice the 
gaps.
<GMonkey> Gonna try making the WAV files, LaLa?
<KidLaLa> I've been doing that all morning.
<GMonkey> So, are we meeting again on Tuesday?
<KidLaLa> Trying that is.
<GMonkey> Except for Leanne, who has to work.
<BabyRain> ok
-> [BabyRain] PING
-> [KidLaLa] PING
-> [Volterra] PING
<GMonkey> All rightie.  We'll meet again on Tuesday and next 
Saturday.
<BabyRain> my husband is still asleep
<GMonkey> Still?!
<BabyRain> still
<GMonkey> You must have really worn him out last night, BR. :)
<KidLaLa> What a laz-y-boy!  :)
<BabyRain> I did, and he is. :)
<GMonkey> And on that note, I say we adjourn. :)
<BabyRain> ok
<Volterra> ok, have fun on Tuesday all
<Volterra> bye!
<GMonkey> Toodles everyone.
<BabyRain> bye
