The Guardian for this meeting was Agatha Macbeth. The comments are by Agatha Macbeth.
Wol Euler blows in your ear.
Agatha Macbeth falls over
Wol Euler: oh dear
Agatha Macbeth: Hello dear Wollie
Agatha Macbeth: How are we?
Wol Euler: pretty cheerful, in a tired way
Agatha Macbeth waits for Wol to return from the kitchen
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
Agatha Macbeth: Good
Wol Euler: too many IMs, sorry
Agatha Macbeth: About cheerful, not tired!
Agatha Macbeth: Oh IMs are a pain when you first come in
Agatha Macbeth: and GNs too
Wol Euler: ?
Agatha Macbeth: And they cover my movement controls up
Wol Euler: group notices, right
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
Wol Euler: you use movement controls? I just use the keyboard arrows
Agatha Macbeth: Then you're waiting for everything to rez of course
Agatha Macbeth: Yes
Agatha Macbeth: Always have
Agatha Macbeth: Much prefer to use the mouse to move
Agatha Macbeth: Force of habit I guess
Agatha Macbeth: The camera that is: not me
Agatha Macbeth: Use mouse and keys for that
Wol Euler: right
Agatha Macbeth: But navigation in SL is pretty much second nature now so I don't even think about it
Wol Euler nods.
Agatha Macbeth: Somebody told me you can use a joystick too, but not sure I'd fancy that
Wol Euler: hmmmm
Wol Euler: why not? it's no more unnatural than a keyboard, really.
Wol Euler: but yes I know what you mean, I think I would find it odd too
Agatha Macbeth: Well it just seems 'wrong'
Wol Euler: for walking at least, I can see it being great for camming
Wol Euler: an odd difference, that
Wol Euler: hello vorder
Agatha Macbeth: Hello Vord
Vorder Forder: hello
Agatha Macbeth: A mouse is a much more intuitive way of working with a PC anyways
Agatha Macbeth: Joysticks are for consoles
Wol Euler: or flight simulators
Agatha Macbeth: Same difference
Wol Euler: which is why I think they'd feel natural for camera control
Wol Euler: but not for walking
Agatha Macbeth: Probably
Agatha Macbeth: Anyway I'm used to this way now, so...
Wol Euler nods.
Agatha Macbeth: What kind of controls does WoW use?
Wol Euler: keyboard and mouse
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
Wol Euler: very cleverly done, actually, you can and often do use both at once
Agatha Macbeth: 0.0
--BELL--1315
Wol Euler: mouse for movement and selecting targets, left hand on keyboard for actions
Agatha Macbeth: How many hands do you have then?
Wol Euler: the usual number :-P
Agatha Macbeth: Hmm
Wol Euler: mouse in right hand, left hand on keyboard
Agatha Macbeth: Pretty much like SL then?
Wol Euler laughs.
Vorder Forder: so
Wol Euler: in the sense that a 32-wheel heavy truck is pretty much like a bicycle, yes
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe all MMORPGs are the same
Agatha Macbeth: So Vord?
Vorder Forder: just a so
Wol Euler: ah :)
Agatha Macbeth: So so
Wol Euler: I haven't seen you in a while, are you well?
Agatha Macbeth: Ah so
Vorder Forder: just adding something
Agatha Macbeth: Are you into MMORPGs Vord?
Vorder Forder: you can aways add some "so"
Wol Euler smiles.
Vorder Forder: what´s a MMORPGs?
Agatha Macbeth: Massive...thingy
Agatha Macbeth: Like world of warcraft
Agatha Macbeth: Ask Wol
Wol Euler: massively multiplayer online role playing game
Agatha Macbeth: That's the one
Vorder Forder: hehe not at all
Wol Euler: a world like this one, where you are surrounded by other human players
Wol Euler: playing game characters
Agatha Macbeth: Slaughtering orcs and that kind of stuff
Wol Euler: yep
Vorder Forder: oh
Vorder Forder: it´s not for me thank you
Agatha Macbeth: Except you can't kill anyone in SL
Wol Euler: "oh" is nearly as universally useful as "so" :)
Vorder Forder: wibe them out
Wol Euler nods.
Agatha Macbeth: Well I guess ejecting them is the closest :p
Vorder Forder: umm
Wol Euler: there is a strong parallel between orcs and griefers :)
Vorder Forder: not my cup of tea
Wol Euler: in the ire they arouse
Agatha Macbeth: Ha
Wol Euler: well, vorder, I thought it wasn't my cup of tea either, until I started playing :)
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe orcs *are* griefers?
Wol Euler: I'd never thought that kind of thing could appeal to me
Wol Euler: but it does
Wol Euler: hello cat
Catrinamonblue Resident: hi :)
Vorder Forder: uppsss I might not start then
Agatha Macbeth: Hi Cat ^.^
Wol Euler smiles.
Wol Euler: it's best not to try it unless you have a lot of spare time that you don't mind losing
Catrinamonblue Resident: listens quietly to catch whats up :)
Wol Euler: I'll give you a notecard
Vorder Forder: I need a shotgun for protection like the rest of the world
Catrinamonblue Resident: ty :)
Vorder Forder: only for protection
Vorder Forder: our worst enemy
Vorder Forder: it is easy to point them out
Vorder Forder: I am my worst enemy
Agatha Macbeth: Yes, many people are :p
Wol Euler nods.
Agatha Macbeth: Like Number 6
Vorder Forder: but we have to take that step of turning that around
Vorder Forder: ..)
Agatha Macbeth: Love thyself?
Wol Euler wonders if ..) is how flounders smile :)
Agatha Macbeth ponders
Agatha Macbeth: Flatfish?
Wol Euler: mmhmm
Agatha Macbeth: Right
Wol Euler: both eyes on the same side of the body
Vorder Forder: not shoot your self is a good start
Wol Euler: yes, though that skill evades many people each year
Agatha Macbeth: Right Vord
Vorder Forder: .)
Wol Euler: guns are nearly as dangerous to their owners as to anyone else
Wol Euler: or so it seems
Vorder Forder: but keep on aming on your target
Vorder Forder: I can
Vorder Forder: I can´t see any use for guns
Vorder Forder: I am perhaps old fashion
Wol Euler: "civilized", vorder :)
Agatha Macbeth: Well unless you intend to kill somebody, they isn't one :p
Agatha Macbeth: there*
Catrinamonblue Resident: only ever used a gun once, when my dad borrowed one to shoot porcupines that were eating the porch
Agatha Macbeth: It's like saying we have nuclear missiles but will never use them
Catrinamonblue Resident: neverhad the desire to touch one ever
Wol Euler nods.
Wol Euler: nor I
Agatha Macbeth: Did the porcupines shoot back?
Catrinamonblue Resident: no but they ran faster than my dad could aim :)
Agatha Macbeth: Ha
Agatha Macbeth: little buggers
Vorder Forder: good for them
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Wol Euler: heheheh
Vorder Forder: ..)
--BELL--1330
Agatha Macbeth: Faster than hedgehogs then
Zen Arado: 's current display-name is "Zen".
Agatha Macbeth: Hello Zen
Vorder Forder: Zen hello
Zen Arado: Hello everyone
Catrinamonblue Resident: Hi Zen
Wol Euler: hello zen
Vorder Forder: what are you keeping under your rope?
Agatha Macbeth: Rope?
Zen Arado: it isn't a rope it's a snake
Zen Arado: :)
Vorder Forder: oh I am the only one wearing a rope..)
Wol Euler: *robe ?
Agatha Macbeth: Best not to wear it round your neck tho :p
Wol Euler: or that
Vorder Forder: it´s not a rope
Zen Arado: unless you are going to jump off a chair
Vorder Forder: sorry I got it worng
Catrinamonblue Resident: is looking closely at everyones cloths :)
Vorder Forder: never mind
Agatha Macbeth: Mine is in the kitchen ;-)
Wol Euler: practicing being silent?`
Agatha Macbeth: Only in the pauses
Wol Euler: ah
Agatha Macbeth: Takes practice
Wol Euler: it is an active verb in German
Agatha Macbeth: Aha robe...i see
Wol Euler: as though saying nothing takes a concious effort
Wol Euler: "I silented."
Agatha Macbeth: For some it does!
Zen Arado: a kesa in Zen?
Agatha Macbeth: Look at Liz...hehe ♥
Wol Euler: poor eliza :(
Vorder Forder: all the effort takes place in the silence
Agatha Macbeth nods
Zen Arado: she must have heard
Wol Euler: speak of the devil :)
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Talk of the devil, she just came on
Agatha Macbeth: Snap
Agatha Macbeth: Telepathy
Wol Euler: must be
Agatha Macbeth: She heard us call
Zen Arado: the call of being
Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
Zen Arado: but she never heard it
Zen Arado: and it is gone forever
Agatha Macbeth: awww
Zen Arado: it fell into the abyss
Zen Arado: of unheard cries
Agatha Macbeth: And met Abbadon
Zen Arado: she didn't hear the cries of the world
Wol Euler: hello eliza
Zen Arado: am maybe she did :)
Agatha Macbeth: Lizzie ♥
Catrinamonblue Resident: then again her she is!!!
Zen Arado: Hi Liz
Catrinamonblue Resident: Hi Eliza :)
Eliza Madrigal: Hello ^.^
Agatha Macbeth: In black and white
Wol Euler: fashionable
Zen Arado: chic
Wol Euler: actually we are all in monochome today
Wol Euler: except the applique on Zen's shirt
Eliza Madrigal: Oh... as we all here... black white and variations of grey
Agatha Macbeth: Making a comeback maybe
Zen Arado: i'm in shades of grey
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: applique?
Zen Arado: impressed
Agatha Macbeth: Mais oui
Wol Euler: either that or embroidery
Zen Arado: sartorial terms
Wol Euler: what do I know, I just kill orcs
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: Wollie the orcslayer
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Actually did you model your look on Obi Wan Vorder?
Vorder Forder: what do you mean?
Zen Arado: who is he?
Agatha Macbeth: You have the look of Alec Guiness about you
Vorder Forder: yes who is he?
Catrinamonblue Resident: Star Wars movies :)
Wol Euler: one of the heroes of Star Wars
Agatha Macbeth: Obi Wan Kenobi? You're kidding
Zen Arado: have never seen any
Agatha Macbeth: OMG
Eliza Madrigal: @@
Wol Euler: O.O
Vorder Forder: yes star wars is my thing

Wol Euler giggles.

Agatha Macbeth: Totally
Zen Arado: have seen Star Trek..he said defensively
Wol Euler: oh, okay
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Oh everyone's seen star trek
Catrinamonblue Resident: better than Star Wars :)
Wol Euler: that gets you a few saving points
Eliza Madrigal: yes, as long as you what a tribble is we're okay
Agatha Macbeth: Live long and prosper
Wol Euler: heheheh
Wol Euler: tribbles!
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Eliza Madrigal: ^.^
Agatha Macbeth: Don't sit on them
Wol Euler: that is probably everyone's favourite episode
Zen Arado: keeps quiet
Vorder Forder: I have to send a telegram....so......have a good eveing..)
Wol Euler: bye vorder, take care
Catrinamonblue Resident: Bye Vorder
Eliza Madrigal: Night Vorder :)
Wol Euler: nice to see you again
Zen Arado: byee Vorder
Agatha Macbeth: Take care Vord
Vorder Forder: take good care
Agatha Macbeth: May the force be with you
Zen Arado: didn't know you could still do that
Wol Euler: "send a telegram"? how quaint
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe you can where he lives
Wol Euler: yes, zen, my thoughts too
Catrinamonblue Resident: wishes someone would send me a telegram :)
Eliza Madrigal: paused a moment with that also... tasting the leap back in time
Wol Euler: I suppose there are people without e-mail still
Zen Arado: maybe it's an Icelandic idiom
Wol Euler: has anyone here ever actually received or sent a telegram?
Wol Euler: I haven't
Zen Arado: for 'I have to go'
Agatha Macbeth: Will have to ask Björk
Catrinamonblue Resident: no
Eliza Madrigal: not I
Agatha Macbeth: Don't think so no
Eliza Madrigal: .stop.
--BELL--1345
Agatha Macbeth: They were quite expensive I believe
Wol Euler: it's such a strange idea, I am curiously keen to do it
Catrinamonblue Resident: http://www.telegramstop.com/
Zen Arado: sitting at pab stop
Agatha Macbeth: Weirdo (hug)
Catrinamonblue Resident: there are many other sites too :)
Wol Euler: :))))
Eliza Madrigal: I learn so much here :), ty Cat
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Agatha Macbeth: SL is educational
Zen Arado: but does a telegram boy deliver it?
Zen Arado: on a bicycle?
Wol Euler: ah, there's the rub
Wol Euler: singing?
Eliza Madrigal: wearing a little hat
Agatha Macbeth: Telegram Sam
Wol Euler remembers Madonna as a singing telegram girl in ... which film? "Smoke" or "Blue in the face"
Zen Arado: heh
Wol Euler: one of those, Harvey Keitel
Wol Euler: Jim Jarmusch was the director
Eliza Madrigal has never heard of either of those films
Wol Euler: oh, great films, highly recommended the pair of them
Catrinamonblue Resident: nor I
Agatha Macbeth: Isn't that the guy with the teeth in the Bond films?
Wol Euler: lemme check which is which
Wol Euler: no that was Richard something
Wol Euler: Keele?
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Eliza Madrigal: I have a string of animes to get through
Eliza Madrigal: but I did see Ruby Sparks
Agatha Macbeth: Not animas? ;-)
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: animes?
Wol Euler: ah!
Wol Euler: did you like it?
Agatha Macbeth: They're great, and manga
Catrinamonblue Resident: Japanese cartoons of sorts, which ones Eliza?
Zen Arado: I need to watch some movies to catch up
Eliza Madrigal: I did like it... though, it took half the film to begin to
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Wol Euler: yeah, it's slow
Eliza Madrigal: really interesting use of that idea, felt by the end
Zen Arado: what idea?
Eliza Madrigal: of being with someone who conforms to one's wishes
Wol Euler: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114478/?ref_=sr_4
Wol Euler: Wayne Wang, not Jarmusch
Agatha Macbeth: Wayne Wang? (made up name?)
Zen Arado: never met anyone like that
Wol Euler: a lovely film
Agatha Macbeth: Good job his first name wasn't Dick
Eliza Madrigal: many couples do try to dance that way for a while "I'll be what you want - you be what I want" ??
Agatha Macbeth: Somehow it never works tho
Eliza Madrigal: cause its work... eventually work gives up :)
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe we can only be ourselves
Wol Euler: except perhaps in fantasy roleplay :)
Zen Arado: we don't even know what we want
Agatha Macbeth: I wasn't thinking of dungeon play Wollie ;-)
Eliza Madrigal: I think... even to ourselves ... yes Zen
Wol Euler chuckles.
Zen Arado: so how does anyone else?
Agatha Macbeth: 7sm
Eliza Madrigal: how did you end up in a dungeon Agatha... she only said fantasy :P
Wol Euler: good point, thank you eliza
Agatha Macbeth: That's pretty true Zen
Eliza Madrigal giggles
Agatha Macbeth: One-track mind?
Zen Arado: I went to a dungeon one time
Zen Arado: but I didn't know what to do
Zen Arado: :(
Agatha Macbeth: Just hang around...
Wol Euler: boom boom
Zen Arado: but the woman expected me to do something
Agatha Macbeth: Anyway
Eliza Madrigal: should have clicked around for notecards Zen
Zen Arado: with the ,,,,equipment
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: :)
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh, just look for the poseballs
Zen Arado: she just stood swishing her tail
Wol Euler grins.
Eliza Madrigal: ah, need the dungeon dictionary
Agatha Macbeth: The ones with tails are the worst
Zen Arado: that meant she was angry?
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Wol Euler: there is a convention of holding two conversations at once, in local chat one plays the encounter through (roleplay)
Wol Euler: and uses IM to negotiate the issue of who does what, and what people want
Eliza Madrigal: did something spray from her tail? then maybe angry....lol
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds logical
Zen Arado: that's only males do that :)
Wol Euler raises an eyebrow.
Agatha Macbeth: Knowing the house rules is half the battle I guess
Eliza Madrigal: hehee
Catrinamonblue Resident: lol
Eliza Madrigal: well, I do know that it is conventional to exchange notecards with a sort of outline or preferences
Agatha Macbeth: Road map
Zen Arado: how was I supposed to know that?
Wol Euler: there is always a moment of negotiating "what are we doing here", in every encounter
Wol Euler: even in normal RL
Agatha Macbeth: True
Catrinamonblue Resident: yes
Wol Euler: "are we going to stop i the street and talk, or will we just nod and say hello and keep walking"
Agatha Macbeth: Brief encounter
Zen Arado: of a D/S kind
Wol Euler: especially there :)
Eliza Madrigal: not sure ... signals can still be screwy
Agatha Macbeth ponders screwy signals
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: am still in brief encounter era pwrhaps
Zen Arado: terribly British
--BELL--1400
Agatha Macbeth: Don't travel by train much anymore
Zen Arado: lets down window and opens train door
Wol Euler: ah, I remember those :)
Zen Arado: with leather strap
Zen Arado: heh
Agatha Macbeth: 0.0
Wol Euler: they were blue and smelled of smoke and machine oil
Agatha Macbeth: Mm
Agatha Macbeth: Thomas the tank
Wol Euler: the seats were covered in a strange, very prickly, dark blue fabric
Zen Arado: which smelled musty
Wol Euler: wooden handrails and edges, with brass screwheads
Wol Euler: yes
Zen Arado: god knows what happened on them
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds like the orient express
Zen Arado: nah British Rail
Wol Euler: no, this was standard Brit Rail local rolling stock in the 60s
Wol Euler: and up to the 80s actually
Wol Euler: in some areas, east London for example
Wol Euler: heh, I can smell it now
Wol Euler smiles.
Eliza Madrigal smiles
Zen Arado: I wrote a poem about a steam train
Zen Arado: from my Granny's backyard
Agatha Macbeth: Chuff chuff chuff
Wol Euler smiles.
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Zen Arado: will read sometime
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
Catrinamonblue Resident: would love to hear it sometime :)
Wol Euler: sure :)
Zen Arado: after tutor has decimated it
Zen Arado: :(
Wol Euler: then perhaps better before
Eliza Madrigal: oh no, read it before
Wol Euler: while you still feel good about it
Eliza Madrigal: yes
Catrinamonblue Resident: agree with Wol and Eliza
Agatha Macbeth: Nobody ever raised a statue to a critic...
Wol Euler: it's easy to pour scorn on somebody's work, any fool can do that and most do
Zen Arado: not sure that I do feel good about it
Agatha Macbeth: True Wollie
Eliza Madrigal: but sharing with friends is something different... you are sharing not just the structure of a poem but the sensations and memories
Wol Euler nods.
Eliza Madrigal: and yourself
Zen Arado: heh
Agatha Macbeth: Plus Pabbers are more enlightened :p
Eliza Madrigal: yeah
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Wol Euler: true
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Zen Arado: you are so persuasive Eliza ;)
Agatha Macbeth: She is
Eliza Madrigal grins
Eliza Madrigal: not meaning to be persuasive though, sincere
Agatha Macbeth: That too
Zen Arado: sure I know
Zen Arado: I like Billy Collins now
Zen Arado: tutor tod us about him
Agatha Macbeth: Phil's brother?
Zen Arado: oh no
Zen Arado: anything but that
Wol Euler listens.
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
Eliza Madrigal: oh, that's right... Zen doesn't like Phil
Zen Arado: American poet
Agatha Macbeth: Right
Wol Euler: contemporary?
Zen Arado: yes
Zen Arado: he was American poet laureate
Eliza Madrigal: I'm not familiar with him
Zen Arado: will read one on Sunday Eliza
Agatha Macbeth: Sunday?
Zen Arado: he was over here my tutor says
Zen Arado: a poetry reading
Eliza Madrigal: wonderful Zen :)
Agatha Macbeth: Oh, nice
Zen Arado: he is clever and funny
Wol Euler: oh, cool
Wol Euler: where and when?
Catrinamonblue Resident: listens with calendar in hand
Eliza Madrigal: it is with Virtual Ability at the library
Agatha Macbeth: La sakura?
Catrinamonblue Resident: lm?
Eliza Madrigal: it is actually nearby to La Sakura
Agatha Macbeth: Ok
Zen Arado: Cape Serenity
Agatha Macbeth nods
Wol Euler: and when?
Agatha Macbeth: Think I know it
Eliza Madrigal: I gave you the La Sakura landmark Catrina.. the library is a short walk away
Catrinamonblue Resident: k thank you :)
Eliza Madrigal: let me see the time
Zen Arado: 11 am
Wol Euler: ty
Catrinamonblue Resident: k
Wol Euler: I should be back home by then
Agatha Macbeth: Oh that's a good time
Eliza Madrigal: 11am... but wait to hear from me - do you know what the visitor policy is Zen?
Agatha Macbeth: No riff raff?
Eliza Madrigal: I wasn't sure if it was an ingroup thing but I don't think so
Zen Arado: yeh
Wol Euler: :)
Zen Arado: don't think they would mind us bringing friends
Eliza Madrigal: true
Zen Arado: it isn't a personal discussion
Zen Arado: or anything
Eliza Madrigal: I may be more nervous though... am just getting used to doing this, hah
Agatha Macbeth: We'll wash first, promise
Eliza Madrigal: haha
Wol Euler: heheheh
Zen Arado: heh no you won't
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
--BELL--1415
Agatha Macbeth: And won't nick the spoons
Wol Euler: and we will of course leave if there is any objection
Eliza Madrigal: I'm sure its fine :)
Eliza Madrigal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIbc1xC8e8U
Zen Arado: ask Gentle to make sure though maybe
Agatha Macbeth: Gentle?
Eliza Madrigal: okay... should be okay I think - VAI has a broad reach
Eliza Madrigal: Gentle Heron
Agatha Macbeth: I've seen those
Eliza Madrigal: she is the person who coordinates everything under the sun
Zen Arado: ah the old Leonard Cohen song
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: en francais
Wol Euler smiles.
Catrinamonblue Resident: lovely
Agatha Macbeth: Famous blue raincoat
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Wol Euler: :)
Wol Euler: lovely album, that
Wol Euler: Jennifer Warnes
Agatha Macbeth: Mm
Agatha Macbeth: Warns who of what?
Eliza Madrigal: I'm also going to co-host a foodie event there soon
Wol Euler: oooh
Agatha Macbeth: Wow
Catrinamonblue Resident: neat
Agatha Macbeth: What kind of foodie thing?
Zen Arado: 'Suzanne t'emmène écouter les sirènes Elle te prend par la main Pour passer une nuit sans fin Tu sais qu'elle est à moitié folle C'est pourquoi tu veux rester Sur un plateau d'argent Elle te sert du thé au jasmin Et quand tu voudrais lui dire Tu n'as pas d'amour pour elle Elle t'appelle dans ses ondes Et laisse la mer répondre Que depuis toujours tu l'aimes '
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Zen Arado: wonder what it means :)
Eliza Madrigal: not sure how it will go exactly except that people will probably share favorite recipes at first... discuss genres of food
Eliza Madrigal: have you ever heard a recipe read at a poetry event?? I love that, when well read
Agatha Macbeth: Oh, you should get Stormy to come then ;P
Zen Arado: heh yes
Catrinamonblue Resident: google translate Zen
Catrinamonblue Resident: "Suzanne takes you listen to the sirens It takes you by the hand To spend a night without end You know she's half crazy This is why you want to stay On a silver platter It serves you tea with jasmine And when you want to tell him You do not have to love it She calls you in its wave And leave the sea meet As always you love
Wol Euler: hehehehe
Zen Arado: Google isn't very accurate
Eliza Madrigal giggles!!
Wol Euler: I'm pretty sure that is not what Leonard actually wrote
Eliza Madrigal: platter
Eliza Madrigal: @@
Catrinamonblue Resident: not always :)
Agatha Macbeth: Google isn't accurate! what?? @.@
Zen Arado: I wrote a story in French this week
Agatha Macbeth: Okay
Zen Arado: but it needs correction
Wol Euler: Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night beside her And you know that she's half crazy But that's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her Then she gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That you've always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. And Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said "All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them" But he himself was broken Long before the sky would open Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone And you want to travel with him And you want to travel blind And you think maybe
Wol Euler: you'll trust him For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Wol Euler: And you think maybe you'll trust him For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Eliza Madrigal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otJY2HvW3Bw
Zen Arado: the rogue
Agatha Macbeth: Thought it was a she
Wol Euler: Jesus?
Zen Arado: I wrote a fine piece of literature
Zen Arado: about Popeye the sailor man :)
Eliza Madrigal: I've been listening to fracoise hardy for days... loved happening upon her version of Leonard's song
Agatha Macbeth: Gee Olive

You asked:
Catrinamonblue Resident: Japanese cartoons of sorts, which ones Eliza?
So, the current list is...
summer wars (have seen but son wanted to see so we watched last night)
whisper of the heart
paprika
my neighbors the yamadas
5 centimeters per second
metropolis
I love anything done by Hayao Miyazaki :)
Howl's Moving Castle
Castle in the Sky
are two of my favorites
the kids are into a show called Bleach
and I have seen one called Fruits Baskets which is funny
Of those you list, Howl's Moving Castle is my particular favorite,
though I think one year we watched Spirited Away ten times. I
should add Princess Mononoke to the list above, since I've not
seen that one yet either. ^.^
WoTH too, was really lovely. Everyone who uses SL should see Summer Wars! :)
and yes Howl's Moving Castle is my absolute favorite!
another one is My Neighbor Totoro
We are about to watch Summer Wars on your recommendation :)
