    Agatha Macbeth: Nice
    Agatha Macbeth: Do they have mosquitoes in Venice?
    Aphrodite Macbain: I have no idea
    Aphrodite Macbain: Probably
    Aphrodite Macbain: in the lagoons
    Agatha Macbeth: I should take some cream with you then
    Aphrodite Macbain: We dont have mosquitoes in Vancouver
    Agatha Macbeth: There are lots on the east coast I believe
    Aphrodite Macbain: but right now flies are buzzing everywhere
    Korel Laloix: They can be bad here... but not too bad.
    Aphrodite Macbain: in the desert Kori?
    Agatha Macbeth: I remember Wol saying they were plagued by them in Nova scotia
    Aphrodite Macbain: I would have thaought it would be too hot for mozzies
    Aphrodite Macbain: that's right
    Aphrodite Macbain: they were in the woods
    Agatha Macbeth: Erk
    Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
    Aphrodite Macbain: back to school Korel?
    Agatha Macbeth: I find ants annoying enough

    Agatha Macbeth: Evening Mick :)
    Aphrodite Macbain: waves at Mick
    Korel Laloix: YEs.. painfully so.
    Korel Laloix: Going to be a good but tough semester.
    Mickorod Renard: Hi Aph, Korel
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm glad I've left education way behind
    Agatha Macbeth: I prefer to educate myself
    Korel Laloix: I do a bit of that for sure.. but the courses I am in are really educational...
    Mickorod Renard: I know what you mean
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah good
    Korel Laloix: Really good brain candy sometimes.
    Agatha Macbeth: When you can learn what you actually *want* to learn it goes in so much easier
    Aphrodite Macbain: why will it be tough this semester?
    Korel Laloix: Lots of thinking, not much busy work.
    Agatha Macbeth: Hello San
    Korel Laloix: Research design stuff really.
    Agatha Macbeth: Oww, sounds like a fatal combo
    Aphrodite Macbain: Hi San
    Santoshima Resident: hi Aph!
    Mickorod Renard: the thing with being educated in a group, like a class is that you can be more sure you are learning something that others also believe is worth learning
    Aphrodite Macbain: Is that a feather in your hair?
    Santoshima Resident: and Agatha
    Santoshima Resident: and everybody
    Mickorod Renard: Hi San
    Santoshima Resident: feathers, yes
    Korel Laloix: Well, my summer class was the oposite.. no thinking and a lot of busy work.. learned nothing but how to predict the habbits of a bad teacher.
    Aphrodite Macbain: lol
    Santoshima Resident: that's something to have learned!
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh dear
    Santoshima Resident: what was the course, Korel?
    Aphrodite Macbain: brb
    Korel Laloix: The course should have been titled.. "How to waste time and money by proving the obvious."
    Agatha Macbeth: That sounds good
    Mickorod Renard: I been on many courses like that
    Agatha Macbeth: Ha
    Mickorod Renard: fortunatly not paid by me
    Agatha Macbeth: You're too busy with your erotic dreams Mick ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Wolliebabe ♥
    Wol Euler: evening all
    Mickorod Renard: I am sure I dont have anymore erotic dreams than anyone else
    Agatha Macbeth: How is one today?
    Mickorod Renard: evening Wol
    Wol Euler: you just admit to them more readily, mick
      --BELL--1300
    Wol Euler: one is peachy, thanks
    Agatha Macbeth grins
    Mickorod Renard: that touch of a peach is interesting, its feel,,you know what I mean?
    Agatha Macbeth: Peachy is good :)
    Wol Euler: the texture, yes, like suede
    Mickorod Renard: mmm
    Wol Euler: and warm in the hand, not like an apple
    Mickorod Renard: I recently made acquantance with an erotic dancer called peaches,,,he he
    Agatha Macbeth: Just don't dream about her too much :p
    Agatha Macbeth: Didn't there used to be a tennis player called Peaches something?
    Mickorod Renard: I must admit to being facinated at the wierd and wonderful events life brings
    Wol Euler: en Regalia?
    Agatha Macbeth: Me too (if it brings any)
    Santoshima Resident: [ ... long silence ...]
    Agatha Macbeth: But it seems to come more easily in SL than RL
    Aphrodite Macbain: in your dreams?
    Mickorod Renard: no, I meant in rl
    Aphrodite Macbain: ah
    Agatha Macbeth: Yours is obviously more sxciting than mine then
    Wol Euler: hello zen
    Mickorod Renard: I am getting frustrated that I am getting old and lacking in enough energy to keep up
    Mickorod Renard: Hi Zen
    Agatha Macbeth: Hello Zen
    Korel Laloix: http://polishsportshof.com/inductees...es-bartkowicz/
    Agatha Macbeth: That comes to us all Mick
    Zen Arado: Hi all
    Mickorod Renard: Hiiii
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah Bartkowicz, that was it
    Zen Arado: tell me about it Mick
    Wol Euler: wow, fancy you knowing her. I am surprised and impressed, and curious
    Aphrodite Macbain: you would need a name like peaches to soften it up
    Agatha Macbeth: You decided not to enter the Paralympics then Zen? :p
    Mickorod Renard: I did pul my achilles tendon running after a train the other day,,that doesnt help
    Wol Euler: brb
    Agatha Macbeth: OMG
    Aphrodite Macbain: I hope you caught it
    Mickorod Renard: just
    Zen Arado: couldn't find an event I could do
    Agatha Macbeth grins
    Mickorod Renard: shooting?
    Zen Arado: nope
    Zen Arado: hands too weak
    Aphrodite Macbain: meditating
    Agatha Macbeth: Aww
    Zen Arado: he yes
    Mickorod Renard: yay
    Zen Arado: Boccia maybe
    Mickorod Renard: whats that?
    Agatha Macbeth: Isn't that a painter?
    Zen Arado: maybe
    Zen Arado: I hadn't heard of it either
    Agatha Macbeth: Some kind of martial art?
    Aphrodite Macbain: Bocci ball
    Zen Arado: I asked if there was any sport those with my disability could do on MD forum
    Zen Arado: and that's what they came up with
    Zen Arado: like bowls
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm, dunno it
    Zen Arado: only smaller rink
    Mickorod Renard: sounds fun
    Aphrodite Macbain: Bocci ball is probably like it
    Agatha Macbeth: Is it from Italy?
    Aphrodite Macbain: Italian
    Zen Arado: maybe i got the name wrong
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah thx
    Aphrodite Macbain: But you would have to stand to roll the ball... I guess
    Wol Euler: the french call that boules, maybe you know that name
    Zen Arado: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boccia
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm, I know pétanque
    Mickorod Renard: ahh yes, played that lots
    Aphrodite Macbain: right Wol - meme chose
    Agatha Macbeth: Playes with metal balls
    Zen Arado: that's different though Wol
    Agatha Macbeth: Played*
    Aphrodite Macbain: Bocci isnt with metal balls
    Agatha Macbeth: on French car parks
    Agatha Macbeth: Crown green bowls is quite good fun
    Wol Euler: yes, not exactly the same thing
    Agatha Macbeth: You'd be surprised how hard it is to get near the jack
    Mickorod Renard: I was always good at peeing up walls the highest, but now my prostate is playing up even thats gone astray
    Agatha Macbeth: Ooer
    Aphrodite Macbain: Bocce (sometimes anglicized as bocci or boccie)[1][2][3][4][5] is a ball sport belonging to the boules sport family, closely related to bowls and pétanque with a common ancestry from ancient games played in the Roman Empire. Developed into its present form in Italy
    Agatha Macbeth: Not much of a piss artist then?
    Mickorod Renard: he he
    Zen Arado: I better start preparing for the next Olympics
    Agatha Macbeth: There ya go, thx Aph
    Aphrodite Macbain wonders what the advantage might be
    Korel Laloix: That is sooooo much TMI.
    Agatha Macbeth: You can play it in venice
    Zen Arado: on Paralympic s I mean
    Aphrodite Macbain: of pissing the hightest
    Aphrodite Macbain: TMI Kori?
    Wol Euler: Too Much Information
    Agatha Macbeth: I know TWI
    Korel Laloix: too much information about pee and prostates.
      --BELL--1330
    Aphrodite Macbain: nods
    Agatha Macbeth: You could change your name to Hugh Rinal
    Mickorod Renard: yes true, I appologise
    Agatha Macbeth: Stick to sex Mick :p
    Aphrodite Macbain: grins
    Mickorod Renard: I suppose its just relative to how knackered i am feeling at the moment
    Korel Laloix: yes.. a much more apetizing though.
    Agatha Macbeth: Aww
    Agatha Macbeth gives Mick a hug
    Mickorod Renard: :) ty
    Zen Arado: Hi Kythera
    Agatha Macbeth: Anyone got any interesting topics they are bursting to talk about?
    Mickorod Renard: Hi Kythera
    Agatha Macbeth: Hello
    Korel Laloix: How about luck?
    Agatha Macbeth: Good or bad?
    Korel Laloix: Both.
    Agatha Macbeth: Have you been here before Kythera?
    Kythera Lionheart: once, i think
    Korel Laloix: Had a guy in the other building have a heart attack yesterday.
    Zen Arado: yes I remember
    Mickorod Renard: yes?
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah, so you have the notecard and know about the recording?
    Aphrodite Macbain: did an ambulance come quickly?
    Korel Laloix: But.... just happened to be in the next room was a cardiac surgoun.
    Agatha Macbeth: Really K, wow?
    Wol Euler: wow
    Agatha Macbeth: Snap
    Wol Euler: (hello Kythera, take a seat)
    Kythera Lionheart: thats fine
    Korel Laloix: So.. very band and very good luck..
    Mickorod Renard: that was very handy
    Korel Laloix: bad
    Santoshima Resident: greetings Kythera, join us won't you?
    Aphrodite Macbain: oh? He died?
    Korel Laloix: Or did the caridac doctor give off heart attack vibes?
    Korel Laloix: No. he lived.
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, take a seat if you wish
    Aphrodite Macbain: Do you know him?
    Korel Laloix: Not really.. I client I had met before though.
    Mickorod Renard: I was suprised once when i discovered a chap in france had had a heart issue and was rushed to hospital,,,was fitted a pacemaker and let out the same day( one day after the attack)
    Aphrodite Macbain: I'm going to change my flights nw. Gotta go
    Korel Laloix: Ciao
    Agatha Macbeth: Take care Aph
    Zen Arado: ciao Aph
    Mickorod Renard: bye Aph
    Aphrodite Macbain: sorry. I'm feeling anxious
    Aphrodite Macbain: :-)
    Mickorod Renard: yea
    Agatha Macbeth: Aww, don't
    Agatha Macbeth: Swim instead :p
    Mickorod Renard: just take lots of money
    Aphrodite Macbain: I'm going to find myself halfway there and I've forgotten my passport or luggage
    Wol Euler: bye aph, take care
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, that helps
    Zen Arado: like in dreams
    Zen Arado: or arrive naked
    Aphrodite Macbain: grins at wol - I sent you a n email Wol
    Mickorod Renard: he he
    Aphrodite Macbain: brrr
    Wol Euler: I'll have a look, ty
    Korel Laloix: brb.. work.
    Zen Arado: can jump in water and hide
    Aphrodite Macbain: sorry 'm such a fusser
    Agatha Macbeth: Join the club
    Mickorod Renard: I am secretly myself too
    Zen Arado: anxiety prone
    Zen Arado: I am too
    Agatha Macbeth: Ok, let's all calm down here
    Zen Arado: have just come out as AP
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder why Aph is changing her flight?
    Mickorod Renard: noone can tell , they think I am always calm,,but inside I am real bad
    Agatha Macbeth: Like a duck
    Agatha Macbeth: Or is it a swan?
    Wol Euler: I suspect that is generally so, mick
    Wol Euler: that we are all much less calm and more flustered, even fearful, than others see
    Agatha Macbeth: With me it's the other way round
    Mickorod Renard: yes, you may be right Wol
    Mickorod Renard: yes?
    Agatha Macbeth: I look outwardly flustered but actually I really don't give a crap
    Wol Euler: *chu
    Mickorod Renard: he he
    Wol Euler chuckles.
    Agatha Macbeth: Pika?
    Mickorod Renard: thats a lovely thought
    Wol Euler: that one
    Agatha Macbeth: Pika chu....never mind
    Zen Arado: inwardly calm
    Wol Euler: oh I got it
    Zen Arado: Hi Ara
    Wol Euler: hello ara
    Agatha Macbeth: You're a buddhist, you're supposed to be inwardly calm
    Agatha Macbeth: Ara babe :)
    Zen Arado: equanimity
    Agatha Macbeth: The rose by any other name
    arabella Ella: Hiya everyone!
    arabella Ella smiles
    Santoshima Resident: { bye }
    Zen Arado: bye San
    Wol Euler: perhaps they fret about not being calm enough
    Agatha Macbeth: Bye San
    Wol Euler: bye san, take care
    Mickorod Renard: bye San
    Mickorod Renard: Hi Ara
    Agatha Macbeth: How's Arabella today?
    Kythera Lionheart: is there a topic here?
    arabella Ella: I am fine thanks Agatha
    arabella Ella: how are you?
    Mickorod Renard: we could start a topic
    Agatha Macbeth: Well if there is, I think I missed it
      --BELL--1345
    Zen Arado: I tried this weeks topic at my session but I don't think it was a success
    Zen Arado: 'endings'
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh it's still endings, right
    Mickorod Renard: its funny, when i looked at that it seemed similar to the iching sessions where I was trying to express cycles
    Agatha Macbeth: I never have a clue what it is to be honest
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes mick, i remember
    Zen Arado: I just get into non-duality
    Zen Arado: so I'd better just stay quiet
    Zen Arado: :-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Like the railway
    Mickorod Renard: no, please tell Zen
    Agatha Macbeth: Remember not to say 'we' Zen :p
    Zen Arado: Nobody gets it Mick
    Zen Arado: :)
    Mickorod Renard: my take is that all things are cycles, ending but always beginning again but perhaps diferently
    Zen Arado: gives up
    Zen Arado: but if it is a cycle it doesn't end
    Agatha Macbeth: Like yugas?
    Zen Arado: finally we were talking about circuits at my English class this morning
    Zen Arado: and I realised the word comes from circle
    Zen Arado: and cycle isn't far from that
    Agatha Macbeth: Hmm
    Mickorod Renard: that sounds good Zen
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: Kyklos is greek for circle
    Zen Arado: and cycle is continuous surely
    Mickorod Renard: maybe it can change though
    Zen Arado: that's good to know next time I am in Athens Aga :)
    Mickorod Renard: in size or dirsection
    Agatha Macbeth: Indeed ;-)
    arabella Ella: the question therefore arises: do cycles have a beginning and / or an end?
    Mickorod Renard: the end could be anywhere
    Zen Arado: I think not but they can have rises and falls in strength?
    Agatha Macbeth: I guesss the beginning and end of a circle are purely arbitrary
    Zen Arado: Ebbs and flows
    arabella Ella: S-curves Zen?
    Zen Arado: what's that Ara?
    Mickorod Renard: cycles within cycles and without too
    arabella Ella: the S-shape signifies ebbs and flows or ups and downs
    Agatha Macbeth: Like a sine wave?
    arabella Ella: yes
    Zen Arado: Ah yes
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah, thx
    Zen Arado: so perhaps the universe expands and then suddenly collapses again
    Zen Arado: and we start with another big bang?
    Kythera Lionheart: why would it collapse?
    Wol Euler: that is almost certain, zen
    Agatha Macbeth: Would take a while tho....
    Wol Euler: for very large values of "suddenly" :)
    Zen Arado: :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Seems a bit pointless tho
    Zen Arado: there was an interesting programme on TV the other night about ever expanding smallness
    Wol Euler: well, you can imagine the Big Bang as god sneezing, if that helps
    Zen Arado: each particle can have smaller particles
    Agatha Macbeth: It's like one of those 60s lava lamps where the stuff rises and falls and rises and falls
    Zen Arado: ad infinitum
    Mickorod Renard: it could be fractal too Zen, so that there are diferent sizes of a similar thing
    Agatha Macbeth: But the purpose is not to get anywhere but to just look good and give light
    Zen Arado: so maybe there isn't any basic thing
    Zen Arado: any basic particle
    Zen Arado: you see I'm getting into non-duality again
    Zen Arado: keeps quiet
    arabella Ella: another question comes to mind: is it because humans are egoistic creatures that we tend to be so 'obsessed' (to some extent) when reflecting on endings?
    Agatha Macbeth: If I knew what non duality is, I might worry :p
    Zen Arado: I don't think there are any endings just those that we construct
    Zen Arado: arbitrary points
    arabella Ella: so what happens when we pass away?
    arabella Ella: is that not an end?
    arabella Ella: or when we move continents?
    Kythera Lionheart: it's the ending that makes it have purpose
    Zen Arado: but that's an arbitrary construction on reality too
    arabella Ella: (move from one continent to another)
    Wol Euler: I asked that a few days ago, ara :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Loaded question ;-)
    Zen Arado: we humans invented a concept called death and assigned it to a certain point of a human life
    arabella Ella: how can death be an arbitrary construction?
    Zen Arado: when the heart stops beating or the brain stops working
    arabella Ella: we invented death?
    arabella Ella: are you serious Zen?
    Agatha Macbeth: You could say the same about birth
    Zen Arado: it's all just changes of form
    Zen Arado: yes when were we born?
    Zen Arado: that one is more difficult
    Mickorod Renard: our bodies may be the only thing that dies
    Zen Arado: when did you start to exist?
    Mickorod Renard: what is 'you'?
    Agatha Macbeth: And who are 'you'?
    Agatha Macbeth: Snap
    Mickorod Renard: he he
    Zen Arado: the organism that you call you
    arabella Ella: you tell me!
    Agatha Macbeth: Not we tho mind
    Zen Arado: when did it commence existence
    Mickorod Renard: is the organism central to the you or i existing?
    Agatha Macbeth: Which came first the chicken or the egg?
    Kythera Lionheart: the egg
    Zen Arado: there is only an organism to me
      --BELL--1400
    Zen Arado: this organism here
    Agatha Macbeth: So where did the egg come from?
    Kythera Lionheart: 90 sec?
    Kythera Lionheart: all species are in transition, so two animals that we would not call chickens today laid an egg that was something that we would call a chicken now
    Agatha Macbeth: So it was a dinosaur then?
    Zen Arado: yes Kythera
    Zen Arado: To me everything is in transition
    Kythera Lionheart: a dinosaur? what?
    Kythera Lionheart: no, it would have been a more primitive bird
    Agatha Macbeth: You don't know what a dinosaur is?
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah archeopteryx you mean
    Kythera Lionheart: dinosaurs are up a different branch of the tree of life, you cant jump brnaches
    arabella Ella: aren't you all ignoring the issue of consciousness or thinking (if you prefer) that makes us who we are?
    Agatha Macbeth: Birds are descended from dinosaurs
    Zen Arado: but that's a concept we invented too isn't it Ara?
    Zen Arado: and nobody really knows what it is
    arabella Ella: ah so is everything simply an illusion?
    arabella Ella: then what are we doing here illuding ourselves?
    Zen Arado: everything is as it is
    Kythera Lionheart: birds are descended from lizards? i think biologists (not jurassic park) would have something to say about that
    arabella Ella: we invented language too but look at its value for communication
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, that's what they *do* say dear

    (Jeez, has this girl read any books?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archeopteryx)
    Zen Arado: we use concepts to describe what is but we have to realise they aren't accurate descriptions of reality I think
    Mickorod Renard: my dog has just helped himself to 3 packets of treats...flipping dog
    arabella Ella: who are 'they'?
    Agatha Macbeth: Ha ha
    Agatha Macbeth: That's dogs for ya Mick
    arabella Ella: clever dog mick
    Zen Arado: oh yes they are very useful for survival
    Zen Arado: concepts labels
    Mickorod Renard: shame they wernt the fresh breath ones
    Agatha Macbeth: Count your blessings. could be a cat
    Zen Arado: for communication as you said
    Zen Arado: but they are only a conceptual map of reality aren't they?
    Zen Arado: Oh sorry I'm getting into this stuff again
    Agatha Macbeth: What, dogs?
    arabella Ella: but Zen why even speak of something called 'reality' if everything is an illusion or unrealistically constructed?
    Mickorod Renard: I think we are conditioned to believe what we believe
    arabella Ella: and there is no means of comparison is there - real with constructed
    Mickorod Renard: but may well be deluded
    Zen Arado: I'm not sure about the word illusion
    Agatha Macbeth: Let's ring David Icke and see what he says
    Zen Arado: don't construct a reality in our heads?
    Zen Arado: don't we I mean
    Agatha Macbeth: You said 'we' DOH!
    Zen Arado: seeing takes place in my brain
    Zen Arado: sorry
    Zen Arado: there is a lot of this stuff in modern neuroscience
    arabella Ella: maybe you could explain 'reality' then if you can't explain or doint like 'illusion'?
    Mickorod Renard: if we were to do a practice of deconstructing our delusion, how would we go about it?
    Agatha Macbeth: Vote tory?
    Zen Arado: I don't think it is explainable
    Zen Arado: but that won't stop us trying I guess
    Zen Arado: meditation is a good start Mick
    Agatha Macbeth: Just don't fall asleep
    Mickorod Renard: I suppose phenemology is a sort of deconstruction system
    Zen Arado: yes that to I think but I don't know much about it
    Agatha Macbeth: I can't even spell that
    Zen Arado: phenomenology
    Agatha Macbeth: That looks right
    Zen Arado: voice typing knows how I to spell it :-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah, that's cheating! :p
    Zen Arado: it just doesn't know how to spell 'how'
    Agatha Macbeth: OMG
    Zen Arado: :)
    Zen Arado: I'm trying to understand the world through what I sense more than what I think at the moment
    Zen Arado: and there is an amazing difference
    Agatha Macbeth: Best of luck Zenny boy
    Mickorod Renard: I saw a video the other day,,where the illusion was suggested to make us want to stay alive and reproduce
    Zen Arado: it's a bit like an artist trying to see what is actually there
    Agatha Macbeth: Sex again Mick?
    Mickorod Renard: yes
    Agatha Macbeth sighs
    Zen Arado: the brain produces a kind of stereotype
    arabella Ella: incorrigible!
    Wol Euler: well, that is certainly the basis of all non-mineral existence
    Zen Arado: if you try to draw someone's arm others held out towards due you always make it too long
    Wol Euler: we live in order to reproduce, creating offspring which live in order to reproduce, etc etc
    Agatha Macbeth: Encourageable
    Mickorod Renard: otherwise we would just be a pile of slime to anyone else
    Zen Arado: for beginners trying to draw up work at the TIAs near the top of their head instead of in the middle of the head
    Agatha Macbeth: Like the lava lamp
      --BELL--1415
    Zen Arado: drat
    Mickorod Renard: mind you, some women have identified me as a pile of slime, so my delusionary effects dont work perfectly
    arabella Ella: TIA?
    Zen Arado: trying to draw someone's eyes draw them at the top instead of middle of the head
    Agatha Macbeth: Ok what are TIAs?
    Zen Arado: should be eyes
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Agatha Macbeth: Erk
    arabella Ella: ah
    Zen Arado: voice typing sigh
    Agatha Macbeth: The TIAs have it
    Mickorod Renard: you can have a TIa in the eye
    arabella Ella: sending you all TIAs
    Zen Arado: isn't that a slight stroke?
    Mickorod Renard: yes
    Mickorod Renard: a blockage in the fine vessels in the eye
    Agatha Macbeth: Oww
    Mickorod Renard: can lead to blindness, maybe temp
    arabella Ella takes back previous comment then if this is what TIA may mean too!
    Mickorod Renard: he he
    Agatha Macbeth: Sounds like an airline
    arabella Ella: it is an airline
    arabella Ella: Turkish
    Agatha Macbeth: Aha
    Mickorod Renard: not so much vessels but the blood supply
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder if Aph uses it
    Zen Arado: http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Transie...roduction.aspx
    Zen Arado: that's the one I was thinking about
    Zen Arado: I have an old friend who had one recently
    Zen Arado: I think you could have one and not even realise
    Zen Arado: unless there was someone with you
    Mickorod Renard: I know someone who had one in the eye
