Aggers, Bruce, Cat, Eos and Yaku assembled at the Village Hall.

 

Agatha Macbeth: Hello Brucie :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) loves Aggers' leg warmers.

Agatha Macbeth: And Blubbie

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Heya, aggers!

Agatha Macbeth: Don't think they'd fit you :p

Agatha Macbeth: Hehe

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ha ha!

Agatha Macbeth: Stick with the antlers ;)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): My typist knitted a pair of those for his sister - many years ago.

Agatha Macbeth: Aww

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (not antlers - leg warmers.)

Agatha Macbeth: Maybe these are they and I got em on eBay <wink>

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ha hya!

Agatha Macbeth: I'll send out an IM to the group

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): good idea!

Catrinamonblue: back :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): wb, Cat!

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) hums "The cat came back, the very next day. We thought he was a gonner, but the cat came back."

Catrinamonblue: lol :) love that song

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): We sang it at summer camp.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Never heard it anywhere else, though.

Catrinamonblue: First time I heard it was on a childrens show with Fred Penner :)

Catrinamonblue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2XgXStPms4

Agatha Macbeth: Does anyone know how to turn time stamps off in chat?

Catrinamonblue: Fred Penner sings the cat came back :)

Agatha Macbeth: Hi Yak

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Heya, Yaku!

Catrinamonblue: Hi Yak :)

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): hey everyone

Agatha Macbeth: I remember The Cat came back :p

Agatha Macbeth: The Muppets did a version once

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Love Fred Penner's rendition of this!

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: 'She wouldn't stay away'

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): privacy general add timestamps in chatlog

Agatha Macbeth: Thx Yak

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): thats where it´s in firestorm

Agatha Macbeth: Hm, thought I turned that off already

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Donde estan los jente?

Agatha Macbeth: Well as we're here does anyone have any particular business to bring up?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): "gente" sry.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Yes, I do.

Agatha Macbeth: Or comments about last WG meeting?

Catrinamonblue: listens

Agatha Macbeth: Fire away Brucie

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Aph has shown the molecule theatre to Bajoy- the person who has been directing the 3 plays that Aph has been in and Bajoy loves the space but cannot think about any future productions until April. Maybe she can meet with the working group sometime in the future. San withdrew from the project  — and Aph doubts whether she will have the time herself in the future.

Agatha Macbeth: Okay

Agatha Macbeth: Thanks Brucie

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): you're welcome ;-)

Agatha Macbeth: Hi E

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Heya, Eos.

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): hey eos

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I'll post it again for Eos, OK?

Agatha Macbeth: Yes pls

Eos Amaterasu: thnks, hi gang

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Heya, Eos!

Agatha Macbeth: Looks like things are on hold there until April then?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): It would seem so, yes.

Agatha Macbeth: Maybe we'll leave that one in the hands of the WG then

Agatha Macbeth: And they can arrange a meeting with her (/him??)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Yes, Aph would like that.

Agatha Macbeth nods

Agatha Macbeth: Bet she's still asleep :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): probably so.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): only a bit after 8 a.m. where she is.

Agatha Macbeth: Anything that came up at the WG anyone wants to comment on?

Agatha Macbeth: Let me find the link

 

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Nomination of ****** -- two thumbs up on that.

Agatha Macbeth: https://wiki.playasbeing.org/index.php?title=Guardian_Pages/Working_Group/_Working_Group/.._Working_Group_Agenda_%_Minutes

Catrinamonblue: I don't mind trying to organize a poetry reading but will not have any time over the next few weeks... I hoping RL will let me breathe sometime soon

Agatha Macbeth: Yes, I don't know him too well unfortunately

Agatha Macbeth: Okay Cat, no rush <3

Catrinamonblue: :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) sends oxygen tank to Cat.

Catrinamonblue: breaths deeply

Agatha Macbeth: Aww

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ;-)

 

Eos Amaterasu: I made a comment on the minutes page

Eos Amaterasu: about Lila's comment "there is a "PaB" vision that we no longer adhere to really'"

Catrinamonblue: yes I saw that

Agatha Macbeth nods

Agatha Macbeth: Maybe something for future discussion

Eos Amaterasu: any present discussion?

Agatha Macbeth: If you like :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Well, sort of, yes.

Agatha Macbeth: Fire away guys that's why we're here

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I feel that we bring to PaB what we are, and share that.....

Agatha Macbeth: Absolutely

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): rather than conforming to some model or pre-established codes/philosophy/ etc.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): My experience has been that "PaB issues" inevitably rise, anyway.

Agatha Macbeth: Yes, true

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): We are a community of similar thinkers, after all.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): But perhaps a theme session on PaB-o-metrics would be in order.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): What do you think?

Eos Amaterasu: Lila used the term "vision"

Agatha Macbeth: I'd second that

Catrinamonblue: yes :)

Agatha Macbeth: Yes E

Eos Amaterasu: which I sense has a quality of passion & interest

Eos Amaterasu: almost devotion

Eos Amaterasu: to... ?

Agatha Macbeth: To PaB I guess

Agatha Macbeth: We certainly seem pretty devoted :)

Eos Amaterasu: and I think also that some of the early participants brought a kind of academic quality mixed with personal experience as a lab for "research"

Agatha Macbeth: Agreed

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) nods.

Eos Amaterasu: there is much less of that, I think mostly because the more academic people tend not to be here (like Pema)

Agatha Macbeth nods

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): nods

Eos Amaterasu: a kind of articulated investigation and playing with

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): and Stim, of course.

Eos Amaterasu: yes

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): btw, I've heard that Daedalus sought out PaB because he'd read TSK three times.

Eos Amaterasu: so both where we're going (going deep....) and how (playful personal lab-style investigations and sorties)

Agatha Macbeth: Wow

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (Eliza told me that.)

Agatha Macbeth: Looks like he's devoted too!

Agatha Macbeth: Maybe that's what Lila meant by 'no longer adhere to'

Agatha Macbeth: Things have just changed

Agatha Macbeth: It's not that the group is really any different, just different people here now than were here in the beginning

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Maybe "things" have expanded a bit -- In sub-groups (dreams, Original Face, etc.) we seem to "adhere" to PaP modes, themes, -- or it seems to be so in my experience, I should say.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): PaB modes,,,,

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): sry.

Agatha Macbeth: But perhaps we ought to discuss this in a larger group?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Yes, it deserves a thorough discussion.

Agatha Macbeth: As Brucie suggests have a theme meeting on it

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (That's why I suggested a theme session or two...)

Agatha Macbeth nods

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): snap!

Agatha Macbeth: Snappers

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: Just seems like a big subject with only 5 of us

Catrinamonblue: yes

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) me nods.

Eos Amaterasu: this discussion will intersect with the rest, as it's logged

Agatha Macbeth: And I think we really need Eliza at least to be present

Agatha Macbeth: Yes E

Eos Amaterasu: bringing up really dark matter :-)

Agatha Macbeth: HA

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ;-)

Agatha Macbeth: Good job she isn't called Stringtheory!

Agatha Macbeth: Anyway

Eos Amaterasu: what a tangled web she's weaved

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: Bless her

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Lila means "playfulness," does it not?

Eos Amaterasu: play, yes

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): hmmm.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (GOOD name!)

Agatha Macbeth: In which language Brucie?

Eos Amaterasu: Sanskrit

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Sanscrit?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): snap.

Agatha Macbeth: Ahhh thanks

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Sanskrit.

Agatha Macbeth: Interesting

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) me ponders dark matter playing.

Eos Amaterasu: /me looks at the earth, the sky, the stars

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Ahhh! The cosmic dance!

Agatha Macbeth: Ah grand vision indeed

Agatha Macbeth: Your eyesight is better than mine :p

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): A host of black birds (dark matter?) have crowded around the birdfeeder behind my computer....

Agatha Macbeth: The same ones as on YouTube?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I actually posted a YouTube vid of them this week.

Agatha Macbeth: Yeh

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Yeppers!

Agatha Macbeth: That was great

Catrinamonblue: link?

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ha ha!

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ty.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I'll find it for you, Cat.

Catrinamonblue: ty :)

Agatha Macbeth: Any other thoughts arising out of the WG minutes?

Agatha Macbeth: (And thanks Eos btw)

Catrinamonblue: oh wow

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): very nice :)

Agatha Macbeth: Good job Tippi Hedren wasn't there :p

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): ;-) ty.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (Just wanted to share the experience of it.)

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: It was great Brucie thanks

 

Agatha Macbeth: Guess they need it this weather

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Yes, the ground is entirely covered with about six inches of snow.

Agatha Macbeth: Odd we've had none at all this year

Eos Amaterasu: you've had some water

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): You've got plenty of rain, though.

Agatha Macbeth: It'll probably arrive in April when nobody expects it!

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): :(

Eos Amaterasu: the cruelest month

Agatha Macbeth: Oh yes always plenty of rain here

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Oh to be in England, now that April's there.

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: Nobody ever dies of thirst here that's for sure

Eos Amaterasu: how you doing, Yaku? (awfully quiet)

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): very well

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): watching bruces marble run now :)

Agatha Macbeth: Yes, hope you doing well Yak

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): HA!

Catrinamonblue: ha ha so am I :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): My typist is in the process of dismantling that.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (IUt will be gone by tomorrow, actually.)

Agatha Macbeth: Aww

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): The worlds ugliest and most boring marble run.

Catrinamonblue: :)

Agatha Macbeth: Hey, it functions!

Catrinamonblue: it was fine by my standards :)

Eos Amaterasu: (must segue to another meeting/hangout... Ciao all!)

Agatha Macbeth: (Or did)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): but was run putting it together --- and a lot of precision work, too.

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): fun*

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): take care cat

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): "COME BACK" when you can.

Agatha Macbeth: (Nice dress too)

Catrinamonblue: bye and yes Aggers :)

Bruce (bruce.mowbray) hums The Cat Came Back the Very Next Day....

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): (etc.)

Agatha Macbeth: Hehe

Agatha Macbeth: She didn't want to roam...

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): that was for the "campers" in the crowd.

Agatha Macbeth: Hi de hi campers

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): alas. My typist is poking me now - saying he has to get ready for RL Quaker Meeting.

Agatha Macbeth: So would you wish to do a theme session about what we discussed in your next session Bruce?

Agatha Macbeth: Ok, quake well

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Hmmm. Let me work on that idea.

Agatha Macbeth: Bye Blub

Agatha Macbeth: Ok

Agatha Macbeth: Noted

Agatha Macbeth: And thanks

Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I could do a theme session on PaB - o metrics, but I think I'd need to study up a bit first.

Yaku (yakuzza.lethecus): bye

 

 
Freddie Wilson had a cat that he didn't want to keep,
 He offered it for sale, but no-one would buy it cheap.
 He called upon the preacher to ask for his advice,
 The preacher said just leave him here, for it would be so nice.

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away,
 She was sitting on the porch on the very next day.
 The cat came back, she didn't want to roam,
 The very next day she was home sweet home!

Freddie put the cat on board a ship was headed for Ceylon,
 The ship was overloaded, about forty thousand ton.
 Not many miles from shore that gallant ship went down,
 There wasn't any doubt about it, everybody drowned.

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away,
 She was sitting on the porch on the very next day.
 The cat came back, she didn't want to roam,
 The very next day she was home sweet home!

Freddie put the cat on board with a man in a balloon,
 Who would give the cat away to the man up in the moon.
 The balloon it didn't rise, it burst in bits instead,
 And ten miles away they found the man stone dead.

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away,
 She was sitting on the porch on the very next day.
 The cat came back, she didn't want to roam,
 The very next day she was home sweet home!

Freddie Wilson took his gun and he hid behind a bush,
 In the barrel of his gun lead and powder he did push.
 He aimed it at the spot where the cat would appear,
 But the next day all they found was Freddie Wilson's ear.

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away,
 She was sitting on the porch on the very next day.
 The cat came back, she didn't want to roam,
 And the very next day she was home sweet home!
