Qt Core: hi Bruce
Bruce Mowbray: Hi, Qt.
Bruce Mowbray: Hi, Chi.
Chi Aho: Hey, Bruce
Bruce Mowbray: I am in the process of putting the final touches on the Schedule for the PaB Party of April 1-3.
Chi Aho: An April Fool's Day party?
Bruce Mowbray: sort of, perhaps....!
Bruce Mowbray: It's PaB's 3rd birthday party -- as you can see on the poster behind me.
Qt Core: as almost everything i planned to do/attend lately... i'm not planning to attend that party ;-)
Qt Core: forgot "blow up"
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
Bruce Mowbray: yes -- a very busy time, it seems.
Qt Core: mostly long period of uninformed waiting and brief bursts of crazy activity
Bruce Mowbray: That sounds familiar!
Chi Aho: sounds like the military
Bruce Mowbray: Well, there's the weekend schedule -- if you can fit anything in.
Chi Aho: I shall be back in a while; must attend to something
Bruce Mowbray: OK Chi -- Bye and be well.
Qt Core: are you making it a notecard giver with the schedule... and landmarks ?
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, it will also be a notecard -- I think.   (You should probably ask Aphrodite, though.
Bruce Mowbray: I think she told me that Storm will be setting up all the LM's.
Qt Core: good, i'm so bad at SL geography
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
Bruce Mowbray: Hi, Aph. I was just speaking of you, my dear.
Bruce Mowbray: There's the schedule poster -- off to my right.
Aphrodite Macbain 's ears are burning
Qt Core: speaking of the devil ... the goddess arrives ;-)
--BELL--
Aphrodite Macbain: he he
Bruce Mowbray: If I made it into two columns - they would have to be very wide, don't you think?
Aphrodite Macbain: love to you all
Sunshine Vayandar: hi CHi, Qt , Bruce and Aph ;)
Qt Core: hi Sunshine
Bruce Mowbray: Hey, Sun!
Sunshine Vayandar: and Chi ;)
Chi Aho: and to you aph; hi, sun; i must go offline; ssyrry

Bruce Mowbray: Bye again, Chi.
Sunshine Vayandar: becoming so festive here ;)
Bruce Mowbray: Are you able to read the Schedule of Events, Sun?
Sunshine Vayandar: rezzing
Bruce Mowbray: or does it need to be bigger?
Aphrodite Macbain: Hi sun
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Aph ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: I think we need to just zooom in and all will be clear
Sunshine Vayandar: I think it's good if people can click on it to take notecard version also
Bruce Mowbray: OK --- I can fix that up easily.
Aphrodite Macbain: oh good idea
Aphrodite Macbain: excellent.
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, zooming in seems to work well.
Sunshine Vayandar: the more ways the better ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: Didn't know we could.
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Sunshine Vayandar: yes I can see it but takes some time
Bruce Mowbray: Yes -- a notecard dispenser -- just like the ones in the Dome with each piece of art work there.
Sunshine Vayandar: ty for putting it together Aph ;))
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Bruce - same thing
Bruce Mowbray: Yes! Aph has done MOST of the WORK!
Aphrodite Macbain grins

Aphrodite Macbain: tx.
Sunshine Vayandar: ;))
Aphrodite Macbain blushes
Bruce Mowbray wonders if that will come through in the auto-logger.
Sunshine Vayandar thinks blush looks nice on her
Aphrodite Macbain: Sun I visited the Garden for Change yesterday and wonder where your performance ill take place
Sunshine Vayandar: ;p
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm you might still have an older LM
Aphrodite Macbain: where all the musical instruments are?
Sunshine Vayandar: it's in the sky
Sunshine Vayandar: a stage with lights
Sunshine Vayandar: the stage is made up of rocks
Aphrodite Macbain: oh dear. We need to tell Storm since he has set up an LM for the place I went
Aphrodite Macbain: could you give me the correct LM?
Sunshine Vayandar: I will test again - but he did ask for the correct LM and I sent it to him
Sunshine Vayandar: I gave it to him this morning
Aphrodite Macbain: hmmm
Sunshine Vayandar: ( my morning)
Sunshine Vayandar: but will test the hud after the session
Sunshine Vayandar: there might be some probs with TP on that sim
Sunshine Vayandar: it works for me
Aphrodite Macbain: well then maybe he does have the right one. I'll check since he has installed a LM dispenser HUD
Bruce Mowbray: Blub loves parties -- although he's somewhat self-conscious about his dancing abilities.
Aphrodite Macbain: I think he likes champagne - that's my memory
Sunshine Vayandar: oh Blub, no worries-  everybody will be drunk so you can freely test out those fins
Bruce Mowbray: Oh yes, he's quite the lush you know.
Qt Core: let him dance for a while in the punch bowl and he won't worry anymore
Sunshine Vayandar: ;p
Sunshine Vayandar: hehe
Aphrodite Macbain: Come vai Qt
Bruce Mowbray: Blub is envious of porpoises . . for their ability to dance.
Aphrodite Macbain: he can practice leaping
Sunshine Vayandar: tortoises?
Aphrodite Macbain: dolphins
Aphrodite Macbain: -form of
Qt Core: potrebbe andare peggio, Aph
Bruce Mowbray: I always confuse porpoises and dolphins.
Aphrodite Macbain: per che?
Sunshine Vayandar: and what if Blub finds a friend?
Sunshine Vayandar: ( just an idea ;)
Bruce Mowbray: Blub always shares his drinks with friends.
Qt Core: un po di tutto,
Bruce Mowbray: or was it something else. . . ?
Aphrodite Macbain: ah.
Sunshine Vayandar: yay italian ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: si, parliamo italiano ensieme

Aphrodite Macbain: nice hat Sun
Sunshine Vayandar: ty ;)) you don't have one yet?
Alfred Kelberry: ok, let's check the eco-readiness of this session...
Aphrodite Macbain: now all we need is someone to take charge of the poetry session on April2
Sunshine Vayandar: noooooo
Aphrodite Macbain: no, not like that Sun
Alfred Kelberry: well, we're doing good :)
Alfred Kelberry: qt the eco-champion

Bruce Mowbray: I wonder how much the fishie takes.
Sunshine Vayandar: I mean lose
Qt Core: wondering which script i'm wearing
Alfred Kelberry: sun ;)
Bruce Mowbray: Oh --
Bruce Mowbray worries about all those onigokkos.
Aphrodite Macbain: where's the egobox?

Although several of us clicked on the "Ego Box" and received flattering remarks about ourselves, none of those were picked up by the auto-logger.

Bruce Mowbray checks and finds that he's not wearing any of them.
Alfred Kelberry: aph, sun made a hat out of it :)
Alfred Kelberry: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: an egohat
Bruce Mowbray: A "CUTIE" !!??
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Alfred Kelberry: yes, bruce. you can't argue with that :)
Sunshine Vayandar: yes Bruce is a cutie ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: You ARE a cutie
Bruce Mowbray: Hey, Cal. Are you still doing the poetry on Sunday nights?
Calvino Rabeni: Now Friday
Aphrodite Macbain: I went to the last one- amazing talent there
Calvino Rabeni: which may be easier for Hana's schedule
Bruce Mowbray: at the 7 p.m. Friday session?
Alfred Kelberry: when i hear "poetry" in sl, i think of eden :)
Calvino Rabeni: and its Sylectra's hosted session
Calvino Rabeni: yes 7pm
Bruce Mowbray: OK -- I will try to stay up past my bedtime and be there.
Sunshine Vayandar: hmm I am sleeping by then ....
Aphrodite Macbain: what if I just put out a general email inviting anyone to come and be part of the poetry session on Saturday morning
Bruce Mowbray hastens to note this in his datebook.
Alfred Kelberry: aph, please do
Bruce Mowbray: That would be fine, Aph.
Sunshine Vayandar: hi Fortune ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: OK 10:10 - 10:30 at my place
Aphrodite Macbain: Hello good Fortune
Bruce Mowbray: only 20 minutes?
Calvino Rabeni: That's not very long :)
Calvino Rabeni: just enough time for "hellos"
Aphrodite Macbain: It's a squish and I had a feeling there weren't many takers
Aphrodite Macbain: hmmm If I get a sense people will come, I'll try and adjust
Aphrodite Macbain: but no one has offered
Bruce Mowbray: Well, the 7 p.m. time slot on Friday night is free --- So Hana and Cal could continue with their regular poetry sessions then -- and if some feel like making that part of the "party," then so be it.
Bruce Mowbray: ? Hmmmm?
Sunshine Vayandar: yes why not
Aphrodite Macbain: Maybe the music jam can start at 9 and the poetry reading can start at 9:50
--BELL--
Aphrodite Macbain: just to keep it part of the day
Aphrodite Macbain: but I like the idea of incorporating it into Friday's party schedule
Aphrodite Macbain: your call Cal
Sunshine Vayandar: now it's 10.10am - 10.30am right?
Calvino Rabeni: I think that's a good time
Aphrodite Macbain: yes Sun
Calvino Rabeni: what do you have in mind by "reading"?
Aphrodite Macbain: which time Cal?
Calvino Rabeni: like 10AM
Aphrodite Macbain: quoting?
Aphrodite Macbain: texting?
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Sunshine Vayandar: or voicing?
Bruce Mowbray: voice?
Sunshine Vayandar: Eden likes to do that
Calvino Rabeni: I wasn't sure
Aphrodite Macbain: OK we can start at 10AM and go till 10:30 is that enuf time?
Aphrodite Macbain: or we can being at 9:50
Aphrodite Macbain: begin
Calvino Rabeni: If the presenters are focused, and it's not interactive, that seems like plenty of time
Aphrodite Macbain: with voice as an option?
Calvino Rabeni: why not :)
Aphrodite Macbain: so we should invite them to prepare something i advance Cal? what works best?
Calvino Rabeni: I think it would help, yes
Calvino Rabeni: as in "come with something you'd like to share in text or read in voice"
Aphrodite Macbain: OK I'll send out a "call for all poets - budding and full blown, to contribute a piece of celebrating PaB on Saturday April 3 between 10am and 10:30 am poetry
Calvino Rabeni: :)
Sunshine Vayandar: ;)
Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
Aphrodite Macbain: Bruce. Can I go into this schedule and change it to reflect this decision?
Calvino Rabeni: Does this event have an MC to run around helping people know what's going on now and next?

Aphrodite Macbain: and there will be schedules and notecards galore!
Aphrodite Macbain: yes shout
Calvino Rabeni: like that
Sunshine Vayandar: I press CTRL and then enter
Bruce Mowbray: I hope that if the poetry session lasts beyond 10:30 it will not interfere with the dancing -- immediately in front of where the poetry reading will be held.
Aphrodite Macbain: what keys do you press
Bruce Mowbray: Or that the dancing will not interfere with the poetry -- take your pick.
Calvino Rabeni: you can MAKE IT LOUDER WITH CAPS :)
Calvino Rabeni: control-enter
Aphrodite Macbain: no I have tried to make them sequential with time between each, Bruce
Sunshine Vayandar: Aph - when u post in local chat - you press ENTER to post - to shout you need to press CTRL and then ENTER

Aphrodite Macbain: So, Bruce, how can I make changes to the times?
Bruce Mowbray: apparently our shouting has wakened the dreamers.
Sunshine Vayandar: ㋡
Aphrodite Macbain grins - a rude awakening
Bruce Mowbray: The way to make changes to the times is to revise the schedule on your "final" notecard and send me that. Then I will make a whole new poster.. No problem.

Bruce Mowbray: no, thank YOU!
