Agatha Macbeth: Competition done?
Wol Euler: not so good actually. I have an itchy rash on both arms, which is spreading
Agatha Macbeth: Oh yes, I heard
Bruce Mowbray: oh dear!
Wol Euler: started right after dinner on saturday, which makes me think it's an allergy
Bruce Mowbray: poison ivy?
Agatha Macbeth: Uh oh
Wol Euler: and the skin reaction looks like ... yes, like that
Agatha Macbeth: Seen the doc?
Bruce Mowbray: oh my, I'm sorry.
Wol Euler: like bubbles, similar to the effect of a mosquito bite
Wol Euler: not yet
Bruce Mowbray: calamine lotion?
Agatha Macbeth: Not shingles I hope?
Bruce Mowbray: Shingles usually hits the chest and back...
Bruce Mowbray: and is very painful.
Wol Euler: no, not red and sore, and definitely not bleeding
Bruce Mowbray: But also VERY VERY itchy, at first.
Agatha Macbeth: Oh dear
Wol Euler: this started on my hands, and stopped abruptly at the level of my sleeves, then started moving up
Wol Euler: anyway
Agatha Macbeth: Oh it was you who was talking about them i think Bruce, on Tuesday
Bruce Mowbray: When I got shingles, my doc told me to get ready to be off work for the next month.
Agatha Macbeth: OMG
Bruce Mowbray: (Fortunately, I had only a mild case.)
Agatha Macbeth: Is it dangerous then?
Bruce Mowbray: and it actually was GOOD.... because it gave me a "booster" in my immune system, against chicken pox.
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, it can be.
Agatha Macbeth: Ah, clouds and silver linings
Bruce Mowbray: DON"T let it get into your EYES!

Agatha Macbeth: Are you going to do a theme session on this orthodoxy thing Bruce?
Bruce Mowbray: no, just the usual Playgoda sessions.
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Agatha Macbeth: Starting when?
Wol Euler: oh, pity :)
Bruce Mowbray: uh, right now?
Wol Euler: theme sessions are fun
Agatha Macbeth: I wasn't sure if you were kicking it off at your session
Wol Euler: but better if announced in advance, so people know to attend
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh true
Bruce Mowbray: http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-a...ngles-pictures
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, I agree.
Bruce Mowbray: No pressure.
Bruce Mowbray dies from laughing....
Bruce Mowbray: We're free to discuss ANYTHING at all.
Bruce Mowbray: wrong key, sry.
Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
Bruce Mowbray: sry.
Bruce Mowbray: (must be the change of shirt colors.)
Agatha Macbeth: Going underground?
Bruce Mowbray: (back!)
Agatha Macbeth: Ah there you are
Agatha Macbeth: How's underneath the fountain looking?
Bruce Mowbray: looking rooty.
Agatha Macbeth: Roo-tee!
Agatha Macbeth: All things need roots
Agatha Macbeth: Even square ones
Bruce Mowbray looks for his typist's roots.

Bruce Mowbray: (Plans to consult Alex Haley on that.)
Agatha Macbeth: Ah good old Alex
Agatha Macbeth: Is he still around?
Bruce Mowbray: https://www.nytimes.com/learning/gen...bday/0811.html
Bruce Mowbray: only in the ethers.
Bruce Mowbray: alas.
Agatha Macbeth remembers Kunta Kinte well
Agatha Macbeth: Amazing when you can track stuff back like that
Bruce Mowbray: oh yeah.
Bruce Mowbray: and now "they" are going even further.
Bruce Mowbray: as with DNA stands.
Agatha Macbeth: They are?
Bruce Mowbray: Yes.
Agatha Macbeth: Hm, right
Bruce Mowbray: Alex Haley was gone before this new tech took hold.
Agatha Macbeth: All that A B C D X business
Bruce Mowbray: Yes!
Bruce Mowbray: Something like that!
Agatha Macbeth: Mitrocondrial or something
Bruce Mowbray: ha ha!
Agatha Macbeth: You can actually track whole populations with it I think
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, I have a friend who did that, actually.
Agatha Macbeth: Wow
Agatha Macbeth listens
Bruce Mowbray: he thought his biological father was a native American.... not the guy who claimed to be his father...
Bruce Mowbray: so he had a DNA test done.
Agatha Macbeth: Any black sheep?
Bruce Mowbray: Found out that his father was the dude who claimed to be.
Bruce Mowbray: a let-down for my driend, to be sure.
Agatha Macbeth: Oh, how boring
Bruce Mowbray: yeppers.
Bruce Mowbray: He was hoping for better.
Wol Euler chuckles.
Bruce Mowbray: Maybe some green sheep.
Agatha Macbeth: 'Too bad son, you're stuck with me'
Bruce Mowbray: BUT, he pointed out to me that he has several siblngs!
Bruce Mowbray: KEEP HOPE ALIVE!
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
Bruce Mowbray: seen one sperm, you've seen em all, huh?
Agatha Macbeth: Well the egg sure has
Bruce Mowbray: ha ha!
--BELL--1330
Bruce Mowbray: That calls for another death!
Bruce Mowbray: ooops, it isn't working... sry.
Bruce Mowbray: sry aboput that.
Bruce Mowbray: Don't know what happened.
Agatha Macbeth: What were you up to Brucie?
Agatha Macbeth: Another gesture?
Bruce Mowbray: I was looking for my DIES LAUGHING animation.
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Bruce Mowbray: Lost it somewhere.
Agatha Macbeth: You did it already I think
Bruce Mowbray: will do DNA check to find out.
Agatha Macbeth: Hmmm
Bruce Mowbray dies from laughing....
Agatha Macbeth: Something I rarely do oddly
Bruce Mowbray: There it is.
Agatha Macbeth: Ah there it is
Agatha Macbeth: Snap
Bruce Mowbray: snappers x 2

Bruce Mowbray: than*
Bruce Mowbray: than*
Bruce Mowbray: than*
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe at Liz's session tomorrow
Bruce Mowbray: I will check in to that.

Bruce Mowbray: How is life in Italy tonight, Qt!?
Bruce Mowbray: (hopes he didn't startle Qt with that question.)
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe here in spirit only?
Qt Core: quiet
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Aha
Qt Core: the day started cloudy and ended sunny
Bruce Mowbray: perfectly acceptable.
Bruce Mowbray: quiet is good.
Agatha Macbeth: Yes I did my lawns today
Bruce Mowbray: Your yawns, aggers?
Qt Core: that in common knowledge is a bad omen for the weather on easter
Agatha Macbeth: Naw
Bruce Mowbray: oh. sry.
Agatha Macbeth: Oh when is it...next Sunday?
Bruce Mowbray: Yes, one week from today.
Agatha Macbeth: Jumps about so much
Qt Core: yes, the sayings says the weather of this sunday and easter will be opposite
Agatha Macbeth: Must get Jesus of Nazareth out again
Bruce Mowbray recalls the saying about, "If it rains on Easter, there will be three more snows before....?" can't remember the rest.
Bruce Mowbray: Jesus of Nazareth would be grateful.
Agatha Macbeth: Hm, in the Antarctic maybe ;)
Bruce Mowbray: ha ha!
Bruce Mowbray dies from laughing....
Agatha Macbeth: Must be getting dark there now
Agatha Macbeth: All the penguins will be huddling
Bruce Mowbray: (another root check. All is well.)
Bruce Mowbray: Are you itching a lot, Wol?
Wol Euler: yep
Agatha Macbeth gives Wollie a scratch
Bruce Mowbray: I had that.
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Bruce Mowbray: Started on my chest,
Wol Euler: trying not to scratch, but I know that I'll do it in my sleep
Bruce Mowbray: moved around to my back.
Agatha Macbeth: I've had sunburn like that
Bruce Mowbray: saw a dark image on my back,
Bruce Mowbray: looked like a map- of Italy, actually.
Agatha Macbeth: 0.0
Bruce Mowbray: Thought I might be related to Gorbachev...
Bruce Mowbray: (on his forehead.)
Bruce Mowbray: but, alas,
Bruce Mowbray: turned out to be a mild case of shingles.
Agatha Macbeth: Did he have a map of Italy on his back?
Bruce Mowbray: nope, on his forehead.
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Bruce Mowbray: will find pic.
Bruce Mowbray: excuse me a sec.
Agatha Macbeth: (Why do I start these things?)
Bruce Mowbray: see for yourselves:
Bruce Mowbray: https://www.google.com/search?q=gorb...iw=616&bih=754
Bruce Mowbray: Is that Italy, or WHAT!?
Wol Euler: you really don't remember Gorbachev's birthmark, aggers`?
Agatha Macbeth: Oh Gorby right
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Suppose it could have been on his bottom
Qt Core: more similar to Thailand than italy
Bruce Mowbray: Here are some good ones:
Bruce Mowbray: http://plotnik2013.livejournal.com/8292.html
Bruce Mowbray: Thailand is good, also.
--BELL--1345
Bruce Mowbray: drop approaches.
Bruce Mowbray: https://www.google.com/#q=maps+of+Thailand&safe=off

Agatha Macbeth: I guess itching is not good for meditating
Bruce Mowbray: I would think not.
Agatha Macbeth: Distracting
Bruce Mowbray: but....
Bruce Mowbray: really,
Bruce Mowbray: one could bring attention to the itch...
Bruce Mowbray: alas.
Bruce Mowbray: as with any other "pain."
Wol Euler nods.
Bruce Mowbray: My typist tells me to shut up and stop making fun of something that is really quite serious,
Bruce Mowbray: and that causes suffering.
Bruce Mowbray slaps himself.
Wol Euler: tell your typist that I didn't take it as "making fun of" at all :)
Agatha Macbeth: You aren't making fun Brucie
Agatha Macbeth: Just observing
Bruce Mowbray: ty, Wol.
Bruce Mowbray: ty, aggers.
Bruce Mowbray ducks head, anyway.
Agatha Macbeth tugs your antlers
Agatha Macbeth: Ah Berti is on yay
Bruce Mowbray: BERTI!
Agatha Macbeth: He remembered
Bruce Mowbray: I'd forgotten it was SUNDAY!
Wol Euler: I reminded him this morning
Agatha Macbeth checks the calendar and nods
Bruce Mowbray: THANKS, Wol!
Agatha Macbeth: Thank you o efficient one
Wol Euler smiles modestly.
Bruce Mowbray harbors some suspicions of "efficiency" --- but no reference to Woly in that.
Bruce Mowbray: I guess efficiency is also good, like Thailand.
Agatha Macbeth: Ah there's the notice
Bruce Mowbray: YES! from BERTI!
Agatha Macbeth: Yay
Bruce Mowbray: Rarely have so few cheered for so few for so much!
Bruce Mowbray: ***** APPLAUSE! *****
Agatha Macbeth: Cheers
Bruce Mowbray: ;-)

Bruce Mowbray: What's that, aggers?
Qt Core: me too
Agatha Macbeth: Never the same after Shelley Long left

Agatha Macbeth: Whose name I forget
Bruce Mowbray: me too.
Agatha Macbeth: I really liked that series
Agatha Macbeth: Back in the days when I watched TV
Bruce Mowbray: I even forget Ted Lanza, Anza, Tanza.... (?????)
Qt Core: i still have the theme song around in my phone, sadly i don't like pieces with vocals as ringtones
Agatha Macbeth smiles
Bruce Mowbray: ;)
Agatha Macbeth: 'Where everybody knows your name'
Bruce Mowbray: Danza!?
