Adams Rubble: with the hunt
Eliza Madrigal: yes :) I'm a bit single-pointed about those kinds of things, can't stop...
Eliza Madrigal: hah
Adams Rubble: :)
Eliza Madrigal: Have you begun?
Adams Rubble: I tried it and did not get past the first clue. I gave up
Eliza Madrigal: ooooohhh... but clues are readily available....
Eliza Madrigal: Five almost defeated me, but I humbled myself
Eliza Madrigal laughs
Adams Rubble: It was a very busy week for me
Adams Rubble: and Pema's last two section of the time chapter threw me a bit
Adams Rubble: Hello Alfred :)

Adams Rubble: it was a long time since I felt that
Alfred Kelberry: *climbs the cake by accident* :)
Eliza Madrigal: wow, threatening is a strong word...
Adams Rubble: threw me off my center

Eliza Madrigal: haha Boxy :)) you are light and can prob climb without issue
Adams Rubble: hi lovely box :)
Eliza Madrigal: Ah, I see, nods
Alfred Kelberry: yes, the cake is still intact :)

Eliza Madrigal: have you guys hunted yet?
stevenaia Michinaga: smiles...huh?
Adams Rubble: I was thinking of all the butterflies that filled my screen during the 90 seconds
Wol Euler: I suck so badly at hunting :(
stevenaia Michinaga: not good at easter egg hunts
Eliza Madrigal: part of the fun.... we're all bad together...
Eliza Madrigal: :D
Wol Euler: in other words, I'm trying it but failing miserably
stevenaia Michinaga: Storm is too clever for me
Adams Rubble giggles...and me too
Eliza Madrigal: me three but there is always cheating, er, asking for more clues...
Adams Rubble: ahhh, cheating is another matter. hehe
stevenaia Michinaga: now we must bribe both you and Storm?
Eliza Madrigal: haha
Adams Rubble: I need to go do somethhing. I hope you all have a happy anniversary celebration today :)
Wol Euler: bye adams, take care
Adams Rubble: bye for now :)
stevenaia Michinaga: bye adams
Eliza Madrigal: oops, bye Adams...
Eliza Madrigal: was fetching a link to an article
Eliza Madrigal: ... on David Foster Wallace this morning, really need to read Infinite Jest which you, Wol, recommended sooooo long ago. you may like the article
Wol Euler: ah!
Wol Euler: it's hard work, be warned. but I found it very rewarding
Eliza Madrigal: this morning should not be in that sentence...was not written this morning...
Eos Amaterasu: http://www.gq.com/entertainment/book...printable=true
Eliza Madrigal: the article is excellent, good prep to read the book
Eliza Madrigal: thanks Eos
Eliza Madrigal: hehe, didn't mean for everyone to read it now...
Wol Euler tears herself away. I'll have to read that another time
Wol Euler: ty
Eos Amaterasu: (eos will also read it later)
stevenaia Michinaga: I must go, batteries low
stevenaia Michinaga: nice to see you all
Eliza Madrigal: "Just unusually precise descriptions of things we all do and see" was one way the author of the article described his writing
Wol Euler: bye steve, take care
Eliza Madrigal: Nice to see you Steve
Eos Amaterasu: ciao steve
Eliza Madrigal: I think official fesitivities start at 9Slt...
Wol Euler: yes
Eliza Madrigal: so we're here in 'the meantime' hehe
Wol Euler: stuck inthe middle with us
Eliza Madrigal: all clowns and jokers
Eos Amaterasu: in the middle of the road....
Wol Euler: exactly :)
Wol Euler smiles.
Eliza Madrigal: Oh! Alfred...
Eliza Madrigal: had wanted to ask about something...
Eliza Madrigal: are you here?
Wol Euler: he'll be back ...
Eliza Madrigal: :)
--BELL--
Eliza Madrigal: I bought a 'wishing well' for the guardian village, but I don't want it to try to take lindens from people :)
Eliza Madrigal: I just like it... would like to put some nice note there or something
Wol Euler: set it to send them to Storm's "Donations" alt
Eliza Madrigal: that's not a bad idea...
Eos Amaterasu: wishing well....
Eos Amaterasu: bucket goes deep down.... where?
Wol Euler nods.
Eliza Madrigal: yes wishing everyone well :)
Eos Amaterasu: and pulls up... well being?
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Wol Euler: buckets of Being
Eliza Madrigal: to splash each other with
Wol Euler notices the play on words far too late, and sighs
Wol Euler: sorry eos :)
Eos Amaterasu: deep water of goodness of life being
Eos Amaterasu: actually, I fell into that one myself
Eos Amaterasu: language is a trickster
Wol Euler: heheheh
Eliza Madrigal: it all makes sense in the big picture ...maybe have to back up far enough or get close enough...
Eos Amaterasu wonders about little wishing wells throughout the day, at critical places and moments
Eliza Madrigal: junctures...
Eliza Madrigal: guess that's what I was thinking... were I a good scripter/builder it might have been my project for art as being... when we read some little note that inspires us, the 'answer' it isn't in the note
Eos Amaterasu: it's blowing in the wind?
Eliza Madrigal: maybe it shows us the question we come to it with
Eliza Madrigal: hah, that too
Eos Amaterasu: yah, we probably much more awake when we're questioning and puzzled
Wol Euler: like a reverse oracle, an elcaro, that gives worthy questions instead of dubious answers
Eliza Madrigal: nods!
Eos Amaterasu tries to viz what an elcaro looks like
Wol Euler: perhaps a little old bald guy with a grin, since oracles are often depicted as beautiful stern women
Eliza Madrigal: mr magoo
Wol Euler: ha!
Eliza Madrigal: with a gnome hat... he can sit near the well...
Wol Euler nods.
SophiaSharon Larnia: good morning :))
Adams Rubble: you saved my spot :)
Eos Amaterasu: Hi SSL
Eliza Madrigal: Hi SHaron and WB Adams :)
Wol Euler: wb adams, hello sharon
Eos Amaterasu: adams
Adams Rubble: Hi Sharon :)
Eliza Madrigal: would you like notes? we've been musing on wishing wells and precise questions... sort of :)
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble looks in the well wishing for a note
SophiaSharon Larnia: ty, its okay, im pretty comfortable joining in the middle/end. thank you for the summary
Adams Rubble throws in a few quarters
SophiaSharon Larnia: <3
Adams Rubble: hoping it is an American well
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Alfred Kelberry: shopia :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: laughs
Adams Rubble looks for some Euros
--BELL--
Alfred Kelberry: adams, going to europe?
SophiaSharon Larnia: whoa, a butterfly flock
Adams Rubble resists asking where the butterflies come from ths time
Eliza Madrigal suspects someone holding a balloon
SophiaSharon Larnia wonders where the wishing well idea originally came from
Wol Euler points to Eliza
Eliza Madrigal: :) well in this case for the village, yes...
SophiaSharon Larnia: :) i meant in history (i cant hep but think stuff like that)
Wol Euler: ah :)
Eliza Madrigal: Eos pointed to a kind of endlessness about a well... well being...
Eliza Madrigal: wishing well ... but the oracle first asks something of the asker...
Eliza Madrigal: not that the well needs something, I'm assuming....heh
SophiaSharon Larnia: an agreement or a commitment
SophiaSharon Larnia: offering :)
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Eliza Madrigal: nods... place of opening ...
SophiaSharon Larnia: wikipedia: ..... came from the idea that water housed deities or had been placed there as a gift from the gods, since water was a source of life and often a scarce commodity.
Wol Euler: ah, ty sharon
Eliza Madrigal: So Wol and I decided that we need a Mr Magoo figure to sit by the well and say David Foster Wallace type things... hah (is adding on to the discussion like a game of telephone)
Wol Euler: :)
Eliza Madrigal: thanks Sharon
SophiaSharon Larnia: ha! like the thingies ade and fael had early on in pab i forget the names atm
Eos Amaterasu: "pieces of nine, pieces of nine!"
Wol Euler: hehehehehe
Adams Rubble: Faenik
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes! thank you
Eliza Madrigal: :))

SophiaSharon Larnia: bye Eos! have fun
Adams Rubble: bye Eos :)
Wol Euler: bye eos, take care
Eos Amaterasu: ciao all, I'll drop by again later....
Wol Euler: see you later
SophiaSharon Larnia: when i was little, i used to throw part of what i was eating in the trash, saying out loud, im giving a sacrifice to the gods, i have no idea where i got that from at that age
Wol Euler smiles.
Eliza Madrigal: how sweet!
Adams Rubble: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: strange :)
Eliza Madrigal: that too
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Adams Rubble thinks that is what happens when they try to teach young people Latin and Greek
SophiaSharon Larnia: right?
Eliza Madrigal: heheh
Wol Euler chuckles.
I began to play a wonderful virtual harp...
Eliza Madrigal: there was a show... where all the little puppets consult the trash heap for wisdom...
SophiaSharon Larnia: thats lovely Eliza :)
Eliza Madrigal: :) Thanks
SophiaSharon Larnia: really?
Wol Euler: nice image
Wol Euler images czech puppetry animation
Eliza Madrigal: :) heh... fraggle rock, actually... cute show my little sister used to watch...
Eliza Madrigal: we related to it because back then there was a garbage can, but that was separate from the trash pile, where neighborhood treasures were thrown
Eliza Madrigal: :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: had to google czech puppetry animation,lol
Eliza Madrigal: TGFG
Wol Euler raises an eyebrow.
Wol Euler: ah
Wol Euler: hehehhe
