Agatha Macbeth: And looking very nice too
Wol Euler: and now you are too. Ah well :)
Agatha Macbeth smiles
Wol Euler: new outfit?
Agatha Macbeth: No, had it ages
Wol Euler: huh
Agatha Macbeth: It was one of the ones I bought when Ora trei closed down
Wol Euler: ah.
Wol Euler: nice stripes.
Agatha Macbeth nods
Agatha Macbeth: Not too much like a deckchair one hopes

Agatha Macbeth: Well I'm in the middle of trying to finish a bowl of cornflakes at the moment
Wol Euler: I am making tea, didn't have time for cereal
Wol Euler: I hope to live long enough to see this Daylight Savings Time nonsense scrapped.
Agatha Macbeth haz coffee
Agatha Macbeth: Yes
Agatha Macbeth: True
Agatha Macbeth: So it's just after 9 with you?
Wol Euler: yes
Agatha Macbeth: 8.13 here
Wol Euler: or if not scrapped, at least the Brits and the Yanks could wake up and join the rest of hte world.
Wol Euler: the only thing stupider than DST is having two different starting dates for it.
Agatha Macbeth: And Europe too
Agatha Macbeth: Absolutely
Agatha Macbeth: That was Bush's doing i believe
Wol Euler: not surprised
Wol Euler: probably somebody told him that this would make the top 0.1% of the American population even richer, so of course he did it
Agatha Macbeth: Ha
Agatha Macbeth: Mr popular
--BELL--
Agatha Macbeth: (Sry, still quite dark here)
Agatha Macbeth: Sleep well?
Agatha Macbeth pokes you
Agatha Macbeth: (She's in the kitchen I'll bet)
Wol Euler: sorry, I was indeed in the kitchen
Wol Euler: I slept very well, thanks
Agatha Macbeth: Now, how did I guess?
Wol Euler: as I lay in bed thihs monring, I was on the point of saying "ah, and I have anohter hour to sleep!" -- when I remembered the Yanks and their ridiculous inability to do sensible things.
Agatha Macbeth: :(
Wol Euler: really.
Wol Euler: hello alf
Agatha Macbeth: Whose session is this normally?
Agatha Macbeth: Hi Alf

Alfred Kelberry: woly in starbucks? :)
Wol Euler: at home
Agatha Macbeth: Not that it's easy to see much with all these trees
Wol Euler: because of the timechange.
Wol Euler: and the damned yanks
Wol Euler grumbles
Agatha Macbeth ponders 'no time'
Wol Euler: heheheh
Alfred Kelberry: ah, yes... time change
Agatha Macbeth: So we can sleep when it's light and come home when it's dark
Agatha Macbeth: Very logical
Wol Euler: which we do anyway, at least here in the northern half of the northern hemisphere
Wol Euler: I think it's a crock, myself.
Agatha Macbeth thinks about that
Wol Euler: sure, in winter here sunrise is at 9am and sunset at 4pm
Wol Euler: whta damned use does DST do there?
Agatha Macbeth: Not a lot
Wol Euler: aaaaaaanyway.
Wol Euler: at least we still have Agatha's birthday champagne, which through the miracle of SL hasn't even gone flat.
Agatha Macbeth: It's Aphrodite's actually ;P
Wol Euler: but your present
Wol Euler: cheeers!

Freud Jungsten: Not quite.
Agatha Macbeth: (TV = television that is) :p
Freud Jungsten: lol
Wol Euler: what else would it mean?
Agatha Macbeth ponders
Freud Jungsten: Sounds like a disease.
Freud Jungsten: When you have Tuberculosis and Herpies at the same time?
Agatha Macbeth: No, that's Vitas gerulaitis
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds nasty
Freud Jungsten: Never had one though.... intend to keep it that way.

--BELL--
Wol Euler: um, I meant myself :)
Wol Euler: *I* am laggy today
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Qt Core: not really sleepy but reluctant to start the day
Agatha Macbeth: the 0100 slot is kind of in the middle of nowhere for everybody
Freud Jungsten: We could pick a nice an contriversial topic to hit to wake everyone up.
Qt Core: i like it on saturdays and sundays, especially now that is at 9am here, a slower way to awake
Freud Jungsten: I like to run frist thing in the morning.
Agatha Macbeth: 'Slower' is the word Qt ;-)
Qt Core: waiting after my eyes get able to focus i like to read, on paper or on a monitor first things in the morning (weekend mornung, that is)
Agatha Macbeth nods
Freud Jungsten: Actually trying to remmber tha tlast time I read a newpaper.
Qt Core: sometimes a walk would be good to, but no running for me ;-)
Wol Euler: only when I'm on holiday, freud :)
Freud Jungsten: I run way too much.... my addiction.
Agatha Macbeth: Yes, I'll definitely be out for a walk in a while
Qt Core: you are lucky, it is one of the healthier addictions
Freud Jungsten: Want to come running wiht me?... I tend to do 10 or so a day on the weekends.
Wol Euler: good god :)
Freud Jungsten: Well, that and coffee.
Qt Core: i'm too fat to run can only walk on a brisk pace
Freud Jungsten: And chocolate.
Freud Jungsten: And shoes.
Wol Euler smiles.
Freud Jungsten: My doc wants me to cut down how much I run.
Freud Jungsten: So trimming it a little.... difficult.
Qt Core: if you run as you like the mind status you got while running you can try meditation or yoga
Qt Core: and exchange times from running to that
Freud Jungsten: Interesting idea... I will check that out.
Freud Jungsten: My endorphin rush does not really hit until about mile 6..... so that is when I really start enjoying it.
Qt Core: i would be hit by a stroke way before that ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Or a car :p
Qt Core: noo, being fat has its good sides, im quite visible ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Hee
Wol Euler: heheheh
Agatha Macbeth: Paint yourelf yellow
Qt Core: :)
Freud Jungsten: Yellow is such an 80s color.
Qt Core: time to (sigh) really start the day
Freud Jungsten: Oh well.
Freud Jungsten: Enjoy.
Wol Euler: take care, qt.
Agatha Macbeth: Have fun Qt
Qt Core: bye all and have fun!
Agatha Macbeth: Ciao

Wol Euler: yes, later on
Wol Euler: noonish probably, have to talk to the boss about that
Wol Euler: alf is torturing the autologger :) making it rez and destroy listeners for him
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe we should throw him in the fountain
Wol Euler: hello darren
Agatha Macbeth: Hello darren
Darren Islar: still here :)
Freud Jungsten: osiyo
Darren Islar: hi everyone
Agatha Macbeth feels around. Yes.
--BELL--
Darren Islar: it's confusing those timechanges
Wol Euler: yeah
Wol Euler: especially when some don't change.
Agatha Macbeth: Mm, we know :)
Darren Islar: right
Darren Islar: one in particular:)
Agatha Macbeth: What happens in Canada then?
Wol Euler: changes at the same time as the Americans, I'm sure
Agatha Macbeth: I see
Agatha Macbeth: Would be logical I guess
Darren Islar: okay 2 then :)
Agatha Macbeth: But Arizona and Hawaii don't change anyway
Wol Euler cheers for them
Darren Islar: ah right yes, there seems to be differences in states
Wol Euler: islands of commonsense
Darren Islar: between states
Wol Euler: Saskatchewan doesn't either, now that I think of it
Wol Euler: and strangely enough, the world does not end.
Darren Islar: hehehe
Agatha Macbeth: Well, yeah
Darren Islar: not yet that is :)
Agatha Macbeth: Another 2 years :p
Wol Euler: :-PPPPP
Wol Euler: spare me the Atzec crap
Agatha Macbeth: Mayan
Wol Euler: IMHO YMMV OITMACTTA
Agatha Macbeth: Is that Aztec?
Wol Euler: mayan :-P
Agatha Macbeth: BWAHAHAH
Wol Euler: :)
Wol Euler: no, but seriously. They didn't believe that the world would end in 2012. They thought in fact that it would never end.
Wol Euler: they believed that time ran (runs) in cycles
Wol Euler: many different cycles, overlapping
Agatha Macbeth: It's just that their calendar finishes then
Wol Euler: they thought that at the point in time when a cycle stops and restarts, that there might be moments of great change
Agatha Macbeth nods
Wol Euler: and in 2012, by coincidence, *many* cycles stop and restart.
Wol Euler: so many moments of very great change.
Agatha Macbeth: Well, change for the better I can handle
Wol Euler shuts up about the damned Mayans already.
Freud Jungsten: Those things sorta empower you to interpret them as you want.
Agatha Macbeth: Aztecs
Wol Euler laughs.
Agatha Macbeth: If I don't get some fresh air soon, I'm gonna go face down on the keyboard
Wol Euler: bye aggers, enjoy the day.
Agatha Macbeth: Take care all, enjoy Sunday
Freud Jungsten: Ciao.
Wol Euler: you too
--BELL--
Freud Jungsten: They all left us.... oh well.
Wol Euler: yeah
Wol Euler: do you have anything to add, Freud? :)
Wol Euler: if not, we could both try to get a little more sleep :)
Freud Jungsten: Was going to ask some more overseas folks what their view of our upcoming election was.
Freud Jungsten: But never found the chance.
Wol Euler: hmmmm
Freud Jungsten: So bed time it isw.
Wol Euler: anohter time, yes.
Wol Euler: goodnight, freud, sleep well.
Freud Jungsten: OK.... ciao then.
