The Guardian for this meeting was Riddle Sideways. The comments are by Riddle Sideways.
The first comment is that "A funny thing happened on the way to the Pavillion today..."
I kept getting stuck at my entry point. Trouble entering the other side (next region) of the meeting hall. I could IM friends over there, but not walk/move.
Bleu Oleander: hi Yakuok, this is where Riddle enters and the following is the first line read.
Yakuzza Lethecus: morning blue

Yakuzza Lethecus: at least i did today :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: before i visited my mother in the hospital
Yakuzza Lethecus: she broke her hand yesterday, nothing serious
Bleu Oleander: how did she do that?
Yakuzza Lethecus: melting water on the road froze again during the night
Yakuzza Lethecus: she went out with the dog, and there she flew :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: at least she´s joking about it
Bleu Oleander: hi Riddle
Yakuzza Lethecus: hey riddle
Bleu Oleander: we don't have to worry about that here!
Riddle Sideways: sorry to be late. I had to exit, re-enter twice then run here from meeting hall
Yakuzza Lethecus: and bleu are you planing to attend the SF retreat ?
Riddle Sideways: ok, I need to hear the complete context of that "she went out with the dog..."
Riddle Sideways: that is too strange a sentence to enter on
Bleu Oleander: I would love to, but don't know if I will be able to take a whole week off
Riddle Sideways: :)

--BELL--
Bleu Oleander: have to get to work ... nice seeing both of you ... bfn
Riddle Sideways: Yak has explained no coming to us before. we need to go to Yak
Yakuzza Lethecus: cya bleu
Riddle Sideways: ok, bye bleu
Bleu Oleander: bye
Yakuzza Lethecus: i think i will come to the states some day :)
Riddle Sideways: not sure if I will ever get to Europe
Yakuzza Lethecus: but i have no need fot that right now, it´s just that i fear creating habits like ,,i have to have visited half the world in order to be happy at some point in life"
Riddle Sideways: ah, just what I was thinking
Riddle Sideways: there was a travel show last year about "100,000 places to see before you die"
Yakuzza Lethecus: i want to be happy with what i am and then visiting friends, it´s not that i wouldn´t do some sightseeing but i don´t even know all cultural places in a 50 km circle from my own home :P
Riddle Sideways: the point was to make us all feel bad
Yakuzza Lethecus: at least i try to ,,be happy with what i am" and not to make it depending on success
Yakuzza Lethecus: what shouldn´t mean that i am not grasping for it, but i can´t allow happyness to myself otherwise :P
Yakuzza Lethecus: it´s tricky
Riddle Sideways: yes, tricky
Yakuzza Lethecus: i mean i would have the money to fligh to the states on tomorrow but still i couldn´t say that i would need something like that
Yakuzza Lethecus: and even i like the distance to the ppl
Yakuzza Lethecus: possibly i would think otherwise if i would swim in money but i always ,,think twice about the outcome"
Yakuzza Lethecus: so a vacation to toast in the sunlight isn´t something i would do
Riddle Sideways: good morning Fael
Yakuzza Lethecus: hey fael
Riddle Sideways: nice wings today
Fael Illyar: good morning Riddle :)
Fael Illyar: Hi Yaku :)
Fael Illyar: two wings :)
Fael Illyar smiles.
Riddle Sideways: a set for long distance and another for hovering?
Fael Illyar: suppose it could be interpreted that way :) The bigger ones I wore because I needed flight assist :)
Fael Illyar: and then didn't feel like taking them off :)
Riddle Sideways: Yak, I understand all too well. The multiple forces draging at ones attention
Yakuzza Lethecus: yes, still sometimes i think that too much thinking isn´t good either :P
Riddle Sideways: all the little/big things that say "be like me" and "go to USA"
Yakuzza Lethecus: so i always find an excuse not to travel anywhere
Fael Illyar: the more forces there are dragging you that you think you should obey, the more in pieces you'll end up
--BELL--
Riddle Sideways: true
Riddle Sideways: example, would love to go to Olympics. but would only be able to see one event at a time and fight crowds.
Riddle Sideways: Better to stay home, record TV and watch when I can
Fael Illyar: yep :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: where are you originally from riddle ?
Riddle Sideways: am competing in marathon cough sitting
Yakuzza Lethecus: israel ?
Riddle Sideways: no, upstate NY
Riddle Sideways: little village. I mostly call it Lake Wobegone
Riddle Sideways: Many Amish and Allegany indian nation
Riddle Sideways: whites were out numbered
Riddle Sideways: but, I been meaning to ask...
Riddle Sideways: Fael is that your Whale circling over in the village
Yakuzza Lethecus: now i know who garrison keillor is :)
Fael Illyar: nope, I have no wales.
Fael Illyar: uh whales
Fael Illyar: looks to be gaya's
Riddle Sideways: the town I grew up in is just like garrison's town
Riddle Sideways: ok, I forgot whose (whom's?)
Yakuzza Lethecus: gaya´s ?
Fael Illyar: the whale
Riddle Sideways: makes me think of Douglas Adams when I see it in the sky
Riddle Sideways: he wrote of a whale materializing miles above a planet
Riddle Sideways: and falling toward the planet, it invents language
Riddle Sideways: naming all the things that are rushing toward it
Fael Illyar: yes, I recall reading something like that dimly
Riddle Sideways: funny how some of the dimly things make such an inpression
Fael Illyar: yes :)
Riddle Sideways: years later you get hit in the head by a cabinet door and can quote the entire chapter
Fael Illyar: haha, yes :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: :)
Fael Illyar: perhaps we dim the memories pursefully so we're able to better function in this moment
Fael Illyar: and that the dimming is actually reversible.
Fael Illyar: purposefully
Riddle Sideways: yes, just now I had some extra moments so I could recall the coffee cup falling with the whale having said "oh, Not again"
Fael Illyar laughs.
--BELL--
Riddle Sideways: but, now the current moments have caught up
Riddle Sideways: I must away. For to be yet another me.
Fael Illyar: Have fun Riddle :)
Riddle Sideways: so quickly our time is over
Fael Illyar: I'll get back to meeping at this script to transfer our wiki over :P
Riddle Sideways: please don't meep so hard (or loudly)
Fael Illyar smiles.
Yakuzza Lethecus: bye you both
Fael Illyar: Have fun Yaku :)
Fael Illyar waves.
Riddle Sideways: bye all
