    I, Pema, was the guardian that night.  It was one of our weekly guardian meetings.  Soon after I arrived, Fael stopped by, followed a bit later by Crusty.

    Fael Illyar: Hi Pema :)
    Pema Pera: Hi Fael!
    Pema Pera: spectacular feathers!
    Fael Illyar smiles 'Have to thank June Dion for those.'
    Pema Pera: :)
    Fael Illyar: While it's just the two of us, I could perhaps show you this "tattoo" I've made :)
    Pema Pera: sure, which one?
    Fael Illyar: this one :)
    Pema Pera: very impressive!
    Pema Pera: like an interference pattern
    Pema Pera: or a sand painting
    Fael Illyar: everyone has something different to say about it :)
    Pema Pera: :-)
    Fael Illyar: would you like a copy?
    Pema Pera: sure!
    Fael Illyar: pick a color :)
    Fael Illyar: christmas present :)
    Pema Pera: let's see . . . .
    Pema Pera: . . . how about deep red, bourdeau, whatever it is called
    Fael Illyar: a bit early but ... well, I don't tend to be stuck on general dates like this ;)
    Pema Pera: oh, here it is almost the 24th . . .
    Fael Illyar gave you Blood Red Insignia Tattoo.
    Pema Pera: blood red, thanks!
    Fael Illyar: Hi Crusty :)
    Pema Pera: In Holland children get presents at the eve of the big day
    Pema Pera: so timing is perfect

    Crusty stopped by, this time without his Santa Claus hat.

    Pema Pera: Hi Crusty!
    Pema Pera: How are you?
    Fael Illyar: Yes, it's the eve tomorrow, isn't it?
    Pema Pera: yes
    Crusty Goldshark: hi fael - hi pema
    Fael Illyar: Oh, you lost your santa-hat, Crusty?
    Crusty Goldshark: well u?
    Pema Pera: well 2
    Crusty Goldshark: yes lost hat - took it off in a mosque and never fund it again . . .
    Pema Pera: :)
    Fael Illyar smiles 'Do you remember what it was called?'
    Crusty Goldshark: santa hat
    Fael Illyar: try using the inventory search?
    Crusty Goldshark: oh you mean the mosque . . .
    Crusty Goldshark: ;)
    Crusty Goldshark: OK
    Crusty Goldshark: good tip - thought it had been stolen by Moslem elves . . .
    Fael Illyar smiles.
    Fael Illyar: the inventories easily grow so big it's impossible to find things you forgot to organize.
    Crusty Goldshark: looking forward to xmas?
    Fael Illyar: so the search is useful. Just remember a more unusual word in the name and there you go :)
    Crusty Goldshark: thanks Fael - will use that tip
    Crusty Goldshark: yes my unusual word was hat - did not recognise 'santa hat'
    Fael Illyar: Also, if you make a folder out of things, you can easily wear them all at once (or remove)
    Crusty Goldshark: installed a relic OS called MS Widows yesterday on a spare Hard drive to see if any faster - NO! oh well anything to get SL up to speed . . .
    Faenik: why not?
    Fael Illyar: the graphics card plays a big role :)
    Fael Illyar: but ... I would be surprised if Windows made it faster :P
    Crusty Goldshark: I read somewhere it can be 2x to 10x faster than Linux because of better Nvidia drivers - it just aint so . . .
    Crusty Goldshark: I will stick with Puppy Linux and keep Widows on my machine for special occasions - when in need of some masochism perhaps ;)
    Crusty Goldshark: So what is Plan 'Be'?
    Pema Pera: there may be no such plan . . .
    Crusty Goldshark: The me be no such bee . . .
    Crusty Goldshark: may even
    Crusty Goldshark: OK so no plan - no being . . . next?
    Faenik: ah :)
    Crusty Goldshark: http://www.partnersinrhyme.com/soundfx/Ambience.shtml
    Crusty Goldshark: I will leave you with soe music
    Crusty Goldshark: CU :)
    Faenik: why not?

    Crusty moved on, and Fael and I talked a bit more, before I also had to leave.

    Pema Pera: bye Crusty
    Fael Illyar: Ah, bye crusty, sorry, got a phonecall
    Faenik loves wells!
    Fael Illyar: I spent yesterday doing some market research at XstreetSL
    Pema Pera: what is XstreetSL?
    Fael Illyar: wondering how to price this Tattoo/bodypaint thing I've done :)
    Fael Illyar: it's a web-shop for SL.
    Fael Illyar: anyone can list an item for sale there.
    Fael Illyar: it's full of crap but does have pearls too.
    Pema Pera: sounds like fun -- a kind of flee market?
    Faenik: なるほど^^
    Fael Illyar: well, many serious businesses use it as well I think.
    Fael Illyar: you can find very good things from there.
    Pema Pera: one of these days I'll go back to shopping, when my life becomes a little less busy . . . .
    Pema Pera: who knows when :)
    Fael Illyar: Well, that's up to you, actually :)
    Pema Pera: to some extent
    Fael Illyar: If you really want to, you can find the time :)
    Faenik loves wells!
    Pema Pera: :)
    Pema Pera: well, talking about time, I think I'll go out and get some dinner
    Pema Pera: Thanks for all your work on the autorecording! I am glad we could have a discussion on the email group. Was interesting to read various reactions
    Fael Illyar: :)
    Fael Illyar: Sure, have a nice dinner :)
    Fael Illyar: See you later :)
