2012.05.07 13:00 - Points of light in Oklahoma

Wol Euler claimed this session, then forgot that she had done so. My bad.

Korel Laloix: osiyo
Alfred Kelberry: kori girl :)
Korel Laloix: What you up to today?
Alfred Kelberry: question: why did you bring your own cushion? animations?
Korel Laloix: Why not?
Alfred Kelberry: listening to a lecture, reading, and sitting here
Korel Laloix: What lecture?
Alfred Kelberry: physics
Alfred Kelberry: bruce :)
Korel Laloix: Oh... ick
Korel Laloix: Heya Bruce.
Bruce Mowbray: Hello, Kori and Boxy.
Korel Laloix: PHysics was one of the most easily forgot classes I have taken so far.
Alfred Kelberry: any class is, unless you use the knowledge
Bruce Mowbray: Physics is a profound way of viewing being -- which I was not quite ready for when I took it as an under-grad.
Korel Laloix: The think about it was, nothing we talked about had any application to anything real.
Bruce Mowbray ponders "real."
Alfred Kelberry: ah, that's sad
Korel Laloix: Maybe if it had been taught in a different way it might ahve been intersting.
Bruce Mowbray: It is ONE way of viewing existence.
Alfred Kelberry: a lot depends on a professor
Bruce Mowbray: yes, it does, Boxy.
Korel Laloix: I tend to think it was te proffessor.
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
Bruce Mowbray: and also my un-readiness to "hear" the professor.
Alfred Kelberry: i've had some quite awesome profs
Bruce Mowbray: me too, Boxy.
Korel Laloix: It was just dumb... memorized soem equations, and figure out what units the expected answer need to be in and match the equation.
Korel Laloix: No real thinking.
Alfred Kelberry: that's a bliss, bruce. glad for you and me :)
Korel Laloix: No real application.
Bruce Mowbray: Sorry -- I'm afraid I need to excuse myself now.. Experiencing some BAD vertigo at the moment.
Korel Laloix: Heya Sophia.
Bruce Mowbray: Need to log out.
Korel Laloix: OH OK...
Korel Laloix: Ciao.
Alfred Kelberry: oh, wish you stillness, bruce
Alfred Kelberry: kitty! :)

Alfred Kelberry: *ruffles kitty's tail*
Korel Laloix: Covered the history of denistry in some ways.
Alfred Kelberry: tell more
Korel Laloix: Old thoughts that tooth aches were caused by worms in the tooth.
Alfred Kelberry: ha
SophiaSharon Larnia stills and listens
Korel Laloix: And several cultures developed drills to open teeth very early.
Korel Laloix: Some on inbreeding and dental malformation, that was a bit disturbing... lol
SophiaSharon Larnia: painful teeth is a pretty compelling reason to develop dentistry
Alfred Kelberry: i can only imagine the breath aroma back in the day :)
Korel Laloix: I think so.
Korel Laloix: And the body oder in general.
SophiaSharon Larnia: stop the pain!
Korel Laloix: Overall it was a good class.
Korel Laloix: And I learned more about anatomy from this clas than I did in my anatomy secions of my bio classes.

Korel Laloix: A couple of locations... around here would be nice and hit the Cherokee or Potatwoatmi powwow.
Eos Amaterasu recalls 400 miles of highway sans curve
Korel Laloix: Or out west there are a couple of good ones as well.
Korel Laloix: Near the Oklahoma salt lake there are lots of nice places.
Alfred Kelberry: so you organize it, kori? this summer?
SophiaSharon Larnia: wow thats a long road
SophiaSharon Larnia: im not even sure if my car can go that far without gas
Korel Laloix: Next summer.
SophiaSharon Larnia: (refil)
Korel Laloix: This summer is already full for me.
Alfred Kelberry: ok
Korel Laloix: http://www.fws.gov/southwest/refuges.../selenite.html
Korel Laloix: It is so lovely there... and not a lot of people.
Korel Laloix: Erin and I stopped there on our roadtrip last summer.
Wol Euler: nice
Alfred Kelberry: can we visit some butch concert? :)
Eos Amaterasu is grokking 'butch concert'
Wol Euler: ... I don't think that word means what you think it means.
Alfred Kelberry: wait...
SophiaSharon Larnia: hmm
Korel Laloix: Maybe down in OK City we could find something.. or Tulsa... lol
Korel Laloix: lol
Wol Euler: you probably mean "country" or "cowboy"
Alfred Kelberry: nope
Korel Laloix: Or lez.
SophiaSharon Larnia: now that is a funny picture
SophiaSharon Larnia: (country)
Korel Laloix: It would be fun to take you all to a good two-stepping place as well... for those that have never been.
Alfred Kelberry: i mean, tough butch women :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: i have been and can take it in small doses lol
Alfred Kelberry: like kori :)

Wol Euler: well, maybe it does mean what you thought it meant :)
SophiaSharon Larnia: smiling in the stillness, imaging a line of dancers
Alfred Kelberry: kori showed a few youtube clips, but i can't remember the band names
Eos Amaterasu visualizes
SophiaSharon Larnia: im more bluegrass than country, theres a line there ya know :)
Korel Laloix: I big line.
SophiaSharon Larnia: haha
Alfred Kelberry: i like country
Korel Laloix: Which sort of bands?.. I have shared a few.

Wol Euler: "screamo" sounds pretty intense
Alfred Kelberry: ok, there's kenny chesney
Eos Amaterasu is learning new mental universes (aren't they all?)
SophiaSharon Larnia: interesting phrase 'mental universes' ...
Eos Amaterasu: our points of light of dots we find interesting or attention-worthy
SophiaSharon Larnia: i didnt know the red ribbon was a wiki search now
SophiaSharon Larnia: what makes it a dot of light? attention?
Korel Laloix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4-iV...eature=related
SophiaSharon Larnia: what is it before that?
Alfred Kelberry: 5 top screamo bands: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6yTfwJCzqY
Eos Amaterasu: attention, which is as much contributed by you as by "it"
Korel Laloix: Some lighter female fronted Christian screamo.
SophiaSharon Larnia: it?
Korel Laloix: Wish I coudl listed to it.
SophiaSharon Larnia: all I's ?
Eos Amaterasu: the dot of light
SophiaSharon Larnia: ohh
Eos Amaterasu: dots in the musical universe
SophiaSharon Larnia: so it has an awareness of itself?
SophiaSharon Larnia: before the attention?
SophiaSharon Larnia: or am i not making sense
Eos Amaterasu: it's a mutual play, so ultimately I think yes, awareness of "it"self
Alfred Kelberry: eek
Eos Amaterasu thinks, hmm, should get some dots of light....
Korel Laloix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHYKnMR7mgw&ob=av2e
