****X-FILES SPOILERS!!!*****
Whoa! This episode didn't disappoint! Finally, the Cigarette Smoking man has a name.....we learn the truth about the faceless rebels.....we learn just what the 'Project' is and what happened to Cassandra Spender....and....
Okay, maybe this is just me. But at the end, when Mimi Rogers was revealed to be the person that CSM was talking to....and he said "you've never betrayed me".....and it's obvious he's had a good relationship with her.....I was thinking--is SHE Mulder's sister? The age could fit....she's got the possible looks (same dark hair)....like I said, she's friendly with CSM, who was supposed to be friendly with Samantha....
Maybe I'm just looking into things I shouldn't. Naww....she's probably not. It'd be kinda sick if she was. Wasn't she and Mulder supposed to be, you know, involved? But then again, I thought this episode promised to tell the truth about Mulder's sister....

Now THAT was a good X-Files ep. Granted it didn't reveal anythin I hadn't already figured out more or less, but there's still next week... Nice cliffhanger though... And I gotta admit, I was a little surprised to see who the Cancer Man... Er... Spender was talking to throughout the episode...
Todd- I forgot to say it earlier, but spiffy creativity demon.
Beast Wars- I am frightened over the fate of my current favorite animated series... Despite the fact that they are getting a certain writing team I really really like, there's abundant rumors that season 4 is gonna start from scratch, and have no ties into the first three seasons. No! None of the characters I've come to know and love, none of the plot thats been woven for nearly 50 episodes now... Ain't right...
Spider man making a comeback- Shudder... At least its getting a decent writer...
Animal Farm- Worse than the evil pigs... The stupid animals. They friggin CAUGHT them painting over the rules and still were convinced the pigs were nice...
Tenchi Muyo- Fun series. I need to get them on tape some time.
SJ- Geez, thinking alike again man... We both posted an X-Files reminder at almost the same time...
James/Lord MacBeth- Actually, signing as your alter ego doesn't mean you're hungry, it just means you've succumbed to the insanity of this place already. And you think this party is full of special guests, you should have seen the first one!
**JIM'S PARTY**
As Harrison ford attempts to help slay the Pokemon creatures, another famous celebrity rings the bell, and Jim answers the door. Standing there are two gentlemen, in odd costumes. "Hurry Robin, there is a battle to be fought!" Adam West comments. Burt Ward stares at the man.
"Adam... You DO realize we're not REALLY Batman and Robin don't you? Those are just parts we played in the 60's..."
"Sure thing Chum." Adam West proceeds to join the battle, showing off a rather impressive display of martial arts skill for a common actor, usually cast to play himself.
In the kitchen, the creature living in the fridge crushes a Pokemon, then proceeds to chat with Wierd Al.
Elsewhere, the defeated Power Rangers are crying, and the Voltron force begins to cheer their victory. However Pidge shows interest in the yellow ranger...
And yet somewhere else in the mansion, some of the Pokemon have mutated up another level. "That tears it," Jim comments," I'm calling proffesionals to take care of this."
"But what kind of proffesionals handle this?" an innocent bystander asks.
"Hey, who else am I gonna call?" (Clicky my name for the answer! Or at least, a very apparent clue...)

*****PARTY RP STUFF*****
SJ watches in horror as Pikachu grows humongous fangs and claws. It begins to grow in size....
"You....you ain't so cute no more.....Um....where'd I leave that flamethrower??"
****PAUSE RP STUFF****
Wilek: Gangrels are one of the various Vampire clans found in the rp gaming system, Vampire: The Masquerade. They're generally pretty feral, and are in touch with their "wild side". I believe some of them are supposed to be friendly with lupines, aka werewolves.
In The Masquerade, Vampires come from Caine, the first murderer. God cursed Caine, so that he would never be able to live normally amongst men. The folks at White Wolf took that to mean he was turned into a vampire. He got lonely and created more vampires, and they created vampires, etc., etc.
BTW, Kaioto seems to be a pretty big Mage fan.
Spider-man: Apperently, it looks more and more like this series will be revived (if they can revive this, why can't they restart Gargoyles?). But I heard that one concept they're thinking of using is to have Spider-man in a parallel universe....I don't know, it sounds kinda crappy to me. They're talking about giving Spidey a cape too. Geez, just stick with the basic formula!
World's Finest: Well, it looks like both a Superman and Batman film may be out of the question. But how about a film starring Bats AND Supes, together? That's what Richard Donner's proposing, and hey, it could happen...
Animal Farm: My teacher read this to us in like the 7th grade. I found it disturbing. I mean, I know it's a social commentary, but....those pigs were just evil. Just plain evil. The whole book was very sinister in my opinion.
Tenchi Muyo: Forget that cute little...whatever it is, howzabout the Tenchi babes! Tenchi, surrounded by beautiful anime women....ah, that's the life!
Valentine's Day: I just gotta share this. Here in DC, the local alternative/hard rock station, DC 101, is hosting a contest--there's taking a bunch of lonely gentlemen listeners on a trip to the Capital's best strip-joints. When I heard that that was the prize.....I'm sorry, I just found that too funny.

**PARTY RP!**
[As the fight between the Pokemon elimination team and the evil beasts begins, Wilek spies Indiana Jones or Harrison Ford or whoever he is joining the fray. Wilek: "Hey Alucard, what is it with you always being allied with ppl who fight with whips?" Alucard: "Fate, I suppose. I wonder if he's related to the Belmonts..."]
**PAUSE RP!**

Todd Jensen> LOL at that Puck thing! Although it's really more Loki's style...
Anonymous> Ah, yet another inmate for Nightstone Asylum. Welcome, and be careful of the xenomorphs, it's been a while since they were fed. <g>
PDA's?
**RESUME RP!**
[As the fight continues, the now four warriors are almost crisped by the Cerberus' fiery breath. They jump out of the way and proceed attacking with their various weapons. Harrison Ford barely avoids being skewered by Slogra's spear, which he uses his whip to wrench from the monster's grasp and use against him. Soon, the beast is dead. HF: "One down, four to go..." Wilek: "You know, you look an awful lot like that guy I found dead in Area 51..."

MANDI - The scene with Cordelia in your ficbit reminds me of a similar scene with the vain Princess in "Spaceballs". (And it's just like Cordelia to go berserk after somebody singes her hair a little, too :)
ABOLISHING ST. VALENTINE'S DAY - I don't think that that idea would go down well with the people who make Valentine's Day cards and Valentine's Day candy. "Oh, great! You want us to wind up in the unemployment line?" :)
Incidentally, according to the "On This Day" section in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, it's the anniversary of Bing Crosby's "Swingin' On a Star", so I give you this creativity demon:
Puck floating along down the street, singing "Would you like to swing on a star/Carry moonbeams home on a jar/ And be better off than you are - " - halts in front of some innocent bystanders and says to them, "Or would you rather be a pig?", followed by a flash of light, and the innocent bystanders saying "Oink oink." Puck presumably goes on his way, saying, "I always liked that spell that Cousin Circe taught me."

POKEMON: Dylan P. Blacquiere's little brother is the biggest Pikachu fan ever...I mean, we are talking Grand High Priest of the Sacred Order of the Pikachy Temple here.
And that is why Dylan has a pic of Wagner about to decapitate the Pikachu hanging on his wall. ;-)
VALENTINE'S DAY: Even though I have Dylan co-opting my cynicism these days, I refuse to buy into that commercialized crap...only I can't say here what I did for fear he'll read it. Last Year's present? A plush lobster and sketches of some of his characters and a homemade card. ;-) Birthday present--An IceStorm Brooklyn painted up to look like his character Whitbourne and dressed in jeans, t-shirt and vest.

Hello everyone.
Valentine's Day> I hate this holiday almost as much as Christmas. Deuce, I'll join your group, and I need that list. Maybe the Bollandists will prove that St. Valentine never existed. The group already got St. Christopher removed from the Calendar of Saints.
Jewel> Funny, I thought I was the anti-Romantic :) I hav little sense of romance and most girls woudl not date someone who is boring and has the romantic qualities of a Roth IRA.
PDA> I dislike them, too, and I vow never to kiss in public. Valentine's Day makes me so depressed, when others are around being too romantic. It makes me wish was an eunech like my cat.
Ravyn> **hugs** Tahnks for the Welcome.
Iron Wolf> You don't go to a catholic College, do you? With Lent, the real question is, "Ho wlonf can you keep your promises?" I can go about three weeks :)
Kaioto> I'm not into the wild stuff in my city, but it's an OK place to live, and you are known by the High School you went to :) I don't follow what you mean by "profitting from your faith", though.

**Mandi enters, bouncing up and down. "YES! YES!" She realizes where she is and stops, looking a bit embarrassed.**
Sorry, all. Reader's Digest explanation: Computer program due one week from now. The past 2 wks I had to work on it, couldn't get a single member function to work. Just realized it was all due to a syntax error and just got all five assigned functions to work in an hour! Whoo-hoo!
That may not have made sense to most people, but I'm *so* glad to have that done.
First and foremost> Welcome back, Deuce! Glad the dance went well. (BTW, did you get my e-mail from my Hood address? The server crashed the day I sent it, and some e-mail got through while some didn't.)
As for painting - **gestures down at her Hood Theatre tee and frayed paint jeans** I feel your pain. I have to go put in a few hours in the Great Dressing Room Cleanup(tm) for the theatre group here today. (Hey, maybe I'll find that shoe I lost in there last semester...)
Goldeneye> I love that game, but since I don't have N64 (I go over to a friend's) I'm terrible at it. I did manage to win three times in a row in the 4-person combat...but that was dumb luck since I didn't think I managed to hit anyone.
T.J. Veil> Thanks! And I can deal with this roommate - turned out she was sick that day, and she always goes home on the weekends. Besides, I'm not even eligible to get a single until next semester.
Valentine's Day> Ehhh...I'm not anti-Valentine's, just as long as the really disgustingly happy couples aren't prevalent in my area. The marketing is extremely tacky, true, but I try not to let it depress me.
Doug> Ooh, teasers! Fine, I'm going to give you one of my own, although this scene may change when I'm done:
**SHAMELESS PLUG/SPOILER FOR IN-PROGRESS FANFIC**
Rory sidestepped his attacker's lunge and dealt the vampire a blow in the side with Luin, sending the halfing sprawling. This bunch was bloodthirsty indeed, but fairly inexperienced - they kept forgetting that they had certain abilities. He barely managed to dodge the bolt of green light that leapt from a female halfling's fingers. It streaked past him, missing the brunette in the corner by inches and searing the brick wall instead.
She spun, a look of shock in her eyes as she grabbed at her hair. The bolt had singed a bit of her hair on one side, just fraying the edges. Then the shock turned to rage.
"My hair! She shot my hair!" Cordelia shrieked, advancing on the female vampire. She hefted the broken two-by-four like a baseball bat. "Do you have any idea how much I paid for this HAIRCUT?!?!?"
With that, she attacked the halfling with a vengeance, pummeling the female furiously. The vampire was so surprised that it was all she could do to fend off Cordelia's blows, much less get in some of her own.
Griff, meanwhile, grabbed the one that was choking Xander and threw the halfling to the asphalt. "Is she always like this?"
Xander shrugged, trying to look nonchalant. "She's got her good points."

Greetings
Welcome back Deuce!
PBS is replacing the Cookie Monster with the Fruit Monster! This is probably the dumbest thing since Fox decided to make another Power Ranger series. He was tied with the Count and Snufleofagis(sp?) for my favorite charicter when I watched Sesime Street. And I thought Public television couldn't get any worse, I guess I was wrong.
***Timedancer Spoilers***
I just reread the new episode. Was it just me, but did Isfet fall for the oldest trick in the book when Myret helped Brooklyn and Sata escape. You'd think that after two maybe three centuries she would learn not to fall for things like that. Oh well, some people never learn.

Hi, everyone. I know I said I'd be posting more regularly, but the semester is picking up now, and although I am not too academically inclined anymore, I don't want to fail and risk some drastic punishment...
Anyways, I think the only topic I can jump into right now is Valentine's Day. For lack of a better word, it's a cute holiday. Yes, it is sweet and romantic, but I have to agree with Jewel that it is too much so. Go to any store this week and you will find all kinds of tacky, garish gifts to express your affection for someone else somehow. Actually, I think the main problem is the commercialization. It makes the "romantic" mood and atmosphere pervasive; that's why it makes many single people feel lonely when they normally don't. The holiday makes it look terribly abnormal to not be with someone at the moment. This week all the radio stations will be playing all the mushy love songs. My friends will be either getting starry-eyed over their boyfriends or indulging in some self-pity over their lack of one. It's that time of year when when people want boy/girl-friends just for the sake of having one, not because they've found someone they are happy being with. Even I, the notorious cynic among my friends (they call me Daria, although I've never seen the show), am in danger of succumbing to the "gosh-I'm-lonely" funk; of course, it must be my closet romantic side emerging. *smiles and considers beating it back to whence it came* I hope I didn't come off as being annoying or bitter. Good luck to those in relationships. To those who aren't: Don't worry, it's almost over, and I'm pretty sure all of you are young, so you still have time to look around. :-)
Sorry about that Valentine's Day rant/preaching. Forgive me? Well, I'll give in to my urge to eat chocolate and watch "The English Patient" now. J/K *grins* Maybe I should go play Quake 2...

"No, Harrison Ford. I get that a lot though."
(Note: The next scene works best if listening to the music I have linked to my name. Load the midi, then continue reading!)
Outside, a fierce battle is raging between Voltron and the Power Ranger's zord. A fist hits there, a kick gets in elsewhere... The rangers are at a clear disadvantage, since one of their number is off flirting, they don't have use of one arm.
"We need backup! Call Tommy!" Inside the mansion, the green/white ranger's wrist communicator thing goes off. He rolls his eyes. "They need my help, as usual..."
The green Ranger appears outside, and blows on his flute, summoning the cool looking Dragonzord. Meanwhile, Voltron and the Power Rangers Megazord have pulled out their blazing swords, and are having a nasty swordfight.
"Die you cheezy live action rip-offs of our show!" Voltron yells. At that point, the Dragonzord appears, and prepares to attack. As it nears the battle which has turned into an assortment of fireballs and such, it sends its tail into the Megazord, wounding it.
"We've been double crossed!" yell the hapless rangers.
"Finish him!" the Green/White ranger shouts. Voltron's blazing sword comes down upon them, slicing off their arms and legs, then goes up into the chest, totally decimating the pathetic machine.
"Fatality," Jim comments cooly from the mansion.

Hello everyone. Despite winter break, crappy connections, computer failure, and other troubles, I've finally made it back. It's good to see all the new people around here too.
***EPISODE SPOILERS AHEAD***
I must say that I'm impressed with the new episode of Timedancer. This has always been my favorite of the four TGS series. I've been waiting to see this story for a long time. We finally find out what happened in ancient Egypt and possibly the fate of Brooklyn's piece of the Aten. Also, I noticed that it was mentioned that this was Brooklyn's fourth time in Egypt. Since Sata obviously hadn't been there before will we find out about both of his previous trips or will we still be left with unanswered questions. One thing I'm interested in knowing is whether Meryt is still around in the present (TGS/Pendragon). If she is, I can't see her just sitting by while the Unseelie try to take over the world, although leaving Egypt may not be her style either.
As for the Unseelie War, I can't really say that it's been much of a war. All we've seen so far are several minor skirmishes that have been inconclusive at best. Although I can understand Madoc's need to gather his forces, you would think that after eleven thousand years that he would be slightly better prepared. Also, many of the Unseelie seem to lack individuality. Loki seems to be just an evil version of Puck, ditto for Madoc and Oberon, and so on. The few exceptions to this are Garlon and Umbriel.
The other characters are developing well though. We see the Trio each going their seperate ways, the deepening of the relationships between Angela and Broadway and Goliath and Elisa. Also, the Brooklyn/Sata interaction has been some of the best stuff I've seen. So for the recent episodes, although the plot arc isn't advancing much, the characters are being devolped well.
***END EPISODE SPOILERS***
Kyryn -- Congrats on the upcoming wedding. Good luck for the future.
Heather -- I hope you heal well. But at least you have pain killers, they should help.
Mandi -- Roommate problems? It's when I hear about that sort of thing that I'm glad I have a single room. Costs a little extra, but I think it's worth it to avoid the grief.
Also, Night Shift was an excellent story, and I can't wait to see what else is floating around in your mind to happen with these characters.
Coyote the Bando -- G:CM has been excellent so far. The Vinnie story was great, although it was a little hard to follow at times. It's nice to see that everyone's favorite loser has finally made the scene ;-).
Doug -- I'm looking forward to your next story. Cliffhangers can be annoying, but at the same time fun. I just hope that it won't be too long before you get the next story up though.
Well, that's all for today. See ya later.

***RP Stuff***The green-cloaked woodsman barely breathed as his knuckles whitened, his hands clasped to restrain the bent limb of the massive tree. His will fought to keep his heart rate down and block out the feelings of strain in his muscles. ~ Just a little more … just a little more. ~ The barking and growl of the two ~ no, three ~ Wargs and the grutal language of their riders drew closer and closer. ~ A few more seconds … a few more ~ With a ruffle and a snap, the bough whipped back from its bent position.
The sounds of wood on steel, steel on flesh, and wood cracking bone were all evinced to be quickly followed by confused yipping of stead and the startled shouts of two Giaks. The impact left the branch cracked deeply and the Giak's skull in poor repair. The fall of the corpse which was once its partner left the Warg confused for a few brief moments. The rest of the world, however, was moving quite swiftly around it.
The second rider and mount gave a collective grutal call of dismay and had to move off the path and into a ditch to evade a collision. In the time it took them to make a descent, however, the woodsman was pulling his blade from between the ribs of the first Warg and turning to address the charge of the third. The riderless Warg had turned about to attack the source of the sudden pain in its side which had disturbed its confusion, but it found its snarl cut off by choking on its own blood as its lungs finished flooding and dropped to the earth, never to rise again.
Meanwhile, the sword and sword arm which had produced the vital surgical strike where completing the motion of withdrawing from the beast to meet the on-coming charge of the latest rider and beast. Maneuvering deftly, the Warg closed the distance, but it's rider could not adjust his spear in time for the charge. With the pommel of the blade high and collision inevitable, the forester threw himself forward between the great claws of the beast, driving the rounded end of the grip into the lower jaw of the rabid creature. His legs slipped forwards as he kicked out, crushing the monster's jaw shut and dropping below its charge. With deadly swiftness, the blade side now made a pass by the hilt, and as the Warg moved past to turn, it sagged and howled in pain as its soft underbelly betrayed it and its life ended in a sudden disembowelment.
Rolling pack off the path and to his feet, the green-clad forester made ready to address the remaining rider and Warg whom made their way to him all to quickly …

Pokemon: It's all so cute I nigh went into sugar shock watching it. I didn't think *anything* could be more saccharine than Chibi-usa...until I saw an ep of "Pokemon."
Valentine's Day: I agree with all y'all out there who absolutely hate it. I had managed to forget all about the stupid holiday until I woke up one morning, went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, and found myself face to face with a mirror that had a giant red cupid on it, surrounded by little pink and red and white hearts. This not the sort of thing one wants to see at 7:45 in the morning, especially in a dorm bathroom. If I hear one more thing about my friends' boyfriends and what they are planning for Valentine's day (three of them, my roommate included in said number, are in brand-spankin' new relationships--just enough in them to be in the uber-PDA phases), or see any more cutesy pink and red hearts with white lace-type patterns on the borders, I am going to be physically ill.

**RP ALERT**
Doug and those with him have left Colorado Springs and are now en route to Las Vegas to meet up with Kitainia. The Onslaught passes a sign that says "Welcome to Utah." From the passenger's seat (Stephanie's driving) Doug turns to face the Comment Room.
**PAUSE RP**
Hello, everyone. Traveler, you said you were going to post yesterday, but you haven't yet. I wonder where you are. :)
Just got from seeing Mel Gibson's new movie Payback. It was a good flick, if you like lots of action and little plot. (And Kitainia and I do, so we enjoyed it very much. <grin>) Gibson turned in a great preformance, portraying the best tactical genuis I've ever seen in an action film. The movie is worth seeing for tips on surviving a gang war alone. Gibson also said a great line to the girl in the film, one that's going into my quote book. - "I'm glad you're here, baby. Now I know I'm not in hell." That's how I think it went, sorry I don't totally remember the film. But it was good, if you like action. :)
Visiting the WB site, it looks like they're picking up Vengeance Unlimited and Brimstone. Alright, our favorite shows found a new home. Hoo raa!
Slept through Batman Beyond this morning, missed the new ep. If someone could e-mail me a summary, I'd be grateful for that. Thanks in advance to anyone who does.
Ordell: Already read and hated that book. Orwell did so much better with 1984.
Gabriel, Eric: Welcome to the CR. Guard your sanity well, it may be stolen from you. :)
Green Baron: $ Thanks for the Atilla info, hope to see you and him in the RP again real soon. $
Deuce: Glad you're back, and the situation went well. Hope your parents are supportive of your Internet friendships now. Thanks to God for answering my prayers. :)
Pokemon: My opinion on it is the same as SJ's, only I don't even like Pikachu. I think this show must die. Grr.
Fruit Monster: He must also die. Yet another instance of parents coping out on raising their kids and taking over dumbass programming execs' minds. Cookie, you will be mourned. And just so you know, I think you rule more than Fruity will and can kick his butt any day of the week! <grin>
Christine: Glad he liked it. Cute name for the doll, too. I trust our check's in the mail?
Valentine's Day: Oh come on, SJ, it's not all bad. You do get paid back for your romance, and if your girlfriend's anything like mine, you get plenty of it back as well. :)
Fanfic Teaser: Yes, I'm doing it, too. Coming within four weeks- "The Blackout." Sequel to "Captives." In which readers shall see-
1. The Illuminati Ultra-Pack vs. The Manhattan Clan and their friends in mortal combat.
2. Matt Bluestone must decide exactly where his loyalties lie, with his old friends or his new.
3. Jadriel makes his first appearance in true form, and battles my saga's other main dragon character. <insert creepy music>
4. We'll find out where Seth is going, and why.
5. Mass rioting in New York, crime waves, people fearing for their lives, and to save them all, the clan must seek help from a silver dragon, the X-Men, and the Sparks.
6. And yes, we'll also find out what happens with Goliath and Thailog. Bwahahahahaha!
So wait and see, fellow fanfic enthusiasts! I shall get this one out as soon as I can. Yes, I know, I'm evil.
That's all for now, see y'all to-mor-row!
**RP AGAIN**
The truck passes a sign that says "Las Vegas- 150 miles." The screen then switches to Thailog's secret base, where the bad guy leaders are around the planning table. "My troops are ready," Asil is saying. "When shall we take NORAD?" "Very soon," Thailog replies. "First we must await Nipon's arrival, so that his forces may back yours up. And General Zale's man must be beamed onto and destroy the Dark Star." All eyes turn to Zale. "The MG 5000 fleet is ready," the general says. "And Serpent's made record time in accomplishing his mission via VR sims. As soon as the Dark Star gets within our ships' range, we shall send him and the others." "Not the others," Thailog snaps. "Just Serpent. He works better alone." "As you wish, my lord. But what shall I have the rest of the squad do? They are very bored, you know." "I do," says Thailog. "So we shall give them a target. Send them after the Black Ravens." The screen fades out, to be continued.

[Wilek, Dark Mage Wilek, and Alucard have cleared out most of the Pokemon...Wilek: "Elton John? Hm. DM, put some of Anoth's music in the CD player. Dark Benediction or something." In Wilek's ficverse, Anoth is a well-known musician. Before DM can carry out Wilek's request, the team hears a yelp from the other room. Wilek: "Oh, shoot, that was SJ!" The three Pokemon killers rush to the source of the yelp...and see the Pokemon transforming into incredibly evil beings...]
**PAUSE RP!**
Races> I've always thought of vampires and werewolves as offshoots of humans, since that's what they start as. Werewolves are transformed humans, and vampires are dead humans that drink blood to survive (although that may not be quite as true in TGS). You know, maybe there are vampire gargoyles...For that matter, aren't the New Olympians human/Fey hybrids?
That Final Fantasy movie's CGI is the most incredible I've ever encountered. I think this movie will ROCK. One thing makes me nervous though...the remark about "computer generated love scenes." That has the potential to completely ruin the movie; I hope it's merely speculation.
Robby> <<If its gonna be that realistic, whats the point in animating it?>> To lower production costs, and to create characters that don't need stunt doubles and who look exactly the way they should instead of having to hire an actor who happens to look similar. The producers have a near-complete control over an animated film that simply doesn't exist in live-action.
Dumlao X> <<who was the resident Castlevania fan in here?>> That was me. ^_^ I have CV64, and it is in fact extremely kewl. Which reminds me: A reviewer once stated that CV64 was quite inferior compared to other games of the series, and even suggested that the upcoming Dreamcast version would be superior (Sega? Oh please). He said all this in a rather insulting manner which I won't inflict upon this comment room by repeating it. I think he's been gutted by Dark Mage Wilek's hunting falcons. Or he's about to be. <horrifiying screams from the basement> Yup, that was him.
Gabriel> Welcome to Nightstone Asylum. If you're here, it means you're insane and won't be allowed to leave. Don't worry, your fellow inmates--us--are rather friendly and don't bite. Well, there was that one time, but that was her idea of a greeting. <g>
Kathy> YOU'RE DRIVING US OUT OF OUR MINDS!!! A TEASER FOR AN EP THAT'S A [censored] MONTH AWAY?!!! YOU ARE THE MOST EVIL BEING EVER TO WALK THE EARTH! <g>
SJ> Well, werewolves turning into vampires doesn't happen on purpose; I think it only happens to werewolves who were made the way they are by dark magic. Um, what are Gangrels?
Fat Tuesday> When is that? Hm, I've never done anything special then. I thought the only ppl who did were those who went to Mardi Gras. Hm. I don't do anything special for Valentine's Day either. In fact, the only holidays I really do much for are Halloween and Christmas, although I buy a lot of candy for Easter.

I suppose not ... **looks to the door** Just as well, anyway. I want to see exactly what's happening with the Gearhead out there.

Fat Tuesday traditions: Oh, all righty then, everybody else has shared one, I may as well.
My last post, I mentioned something about paczis. What they are is basically they're overstuffed jelly or custard donuts, usually filled with vanilla custard or fruit compote (most popular are apple and raspberry ... though I have heard about lemon and prune ones. :P). Anyway, they're Polish in origin (since Detroit has such a huge Polish community, it's probably the only city in the country that calls Fat Tuesday "Paczi Day."), and the idea (from what I gather) is to eat as many as you can *before* midnight. (BTW ... to ease any confusion, the word is pronounced "poonch-key.")
Entity: That *is* quite a way to jump into the fandom. Drag 'im over here, we'd all *love* to meet him, right guys? :)
Robby: Here's a little interesting factoid ... you mentioned rodeo, and it just so happens that MSU is the only Big Ten school that has a rodeo team.
(Speaking of the Big Ten ... Doug and Kitainia: Was reading the sports page this afternoon and saw something in the article about Notre Dame declining membership in the Big Ten about potential other twelfth schools. Would you believe that Texas is a longshot to become a Big Ten school?)
Heather: I already sent a message to ya, but I thought I'd thank you again for the high praise! :)
Wilek: $I kinda figured it was a different Alucard ... it was just a funky coincidence, that's all.$
Ravyn: :) So do I.
Deuce: Give it a chance, dude. The whole *point* of the show is to be silly ... I happen to like it, but then again I have a suceptibility to silliness as some folks in here are aware.
Incidentally ... evidently Pokemon has found a network home: Kids' WB will be showing episodes on the weekends. Too cool! ;)
SJ: You're forgetting Sweetest Day ... or does that count?
Valentine's Day: Hmm ... not exactly the best of holidays when you're lonely ... but you can find ways of making do ... I know I will be.
(Those folks who know me real well know I'm possibly the world's most hopeless romantic.)

**Ravyn tosses the nozzle of the fire hose to Coyote, who starts running out the door, toward the tank. He points the fire hose at the Gearhead and the amorous Power Ranger.**
BREAK IT UP, YOU TWO! **turns to Ravyn** Now!
**Ravyn turns on the water, as Coyote opens the nozzle. A long stream of pressurized water shoots out of the hose, hitting the Gearhead and the Power Ranger and knocking them cleanly out of the Commander's Seat, as the screen winks off.**

Sevarius Jr. has eventually warmed up to the cute little Pokemon that was nuzzling his leg. As Elton plays in the background, SJ sits on a couch, feeding it jellybeans (that's jellybeans, not Jillybean).
"Hey, you like these don't you?"
"Pika. Pika, pika-chu."

Wilek: Werewolves turning into Vampires? Never heard of such a practice. That's slanderous! I mean, the Gangrels are pretty feral.....
BTW, anybody remember that old Ghostbusters episode where the werewolves bit the vamps and the vamps bit the wolves, creating a whole buch of Werevampires and Vampirewolves? THAT was a cool episode!
Batman Beyond: This is a conformation folks: Mr. Freeze WILL show up on the show. How do I know? Well you know how during the credits of one show, they sometimes split screen and show advertisements for other shows on one side? They did a 30 second commercial for Beyond, showing scenes from upcoming episodes, and for a second or two you see Freeze. I was taping the whole thing, and when I slo-mowed it, Freeze was clearly evident. FREEZE! With a cool new costume too. Now, if only Ra's Al Ghul would show up....
Men in Black: Today's episode was written by Greg AND Jon Weisman. Hey, I didn't know Greg had a brother! In the Industry too!
Deuce: Glad things have smoothed down with the ol' parental units. Hopefully they won't have anymore trouble with the room....
Valentine's Day: Remember, gentlemen: for some strange reason, women aren't content with just watching a football game or eating at the Burger King. They gotta have ROMANCE. (Ugh. The word sends shivers down my spine. Whoa-Feel that? That was a shiver!) So this upcoming Sunday (the 14th, that is), get off your butts and actually do something for them. Hey, look on the bright side--If their birthdays are already past, you don't have to sweat it out again for the rest of the year! Well, except for maybe the anniversary....but honestly, what man's gonna remember that? ;)

** Deuce walks in, wearing an EXTREMELY ripped-up shirt, tight jeans, and a dorky painter's cap. **
I can't believe how much work it is just to paint a ceiling. (No Sistine Chapel jokes). My parents figured now would be a great time to paint the house, so today we started. Blegh. But hey: in exchange for my help, my parents offered to pay for my driver's learning permit, which otherwise would have set me back $55. Good enough for me!
For those who asked: the dance went great! The music sucked, but I had a great many friends there with me, so it didn't matter. No huge romantic successes, but I've learned to live with that. There was one girl I'm somewhat interested in, but I've learned from experience to definitely let her make the first move. :-)
Pokémon> My little brother watches that show constantly. The plots are SO stupid, the human characters are annoying, and I want to strangle every last one of those little SOBs. Except Pikachu; he's adorable. I have a plastic one taped to the inside of my locker door at school. 8-)
Mardi Gras> The year I'm 21, I'm going to New Orleans for the party. Can't wait! As for Lent, I have one thing I'd LOVE to give up: cursing.
SOROW> Welcome back!!!! And on top of avoiding the percent sign, don't use a plus, either. It becomes a space, which is quitw annoying.
Ravyn> I agree: Valentine's Day SUCKS, especially when you're single. Depressed the hell out of me, and I have to keep reading my sister's poster: "The 99 Best Things About Being Single". I'll e-mail them to you, if you want.
Nintendo64> Best games, without a doubt, are Goldeneye and... Mario 64. Just Mario. I LOVED that game. :-)

Hi there,
I'm around first time but now, after the second season of Timedancer apeared I have to write. I think this was realy one of the best episodes of TD and I like to know what happend if Sata meets Pandora or the one of the Avalonien clan. But, in spite of enjoying reading, there were some holes in the story. At first, as Brook said in the story the last good meal was years ago in New Orleans, but this was the last episode. What happend between? And then we know Kenshu won't have the Aten in 20th century because he had hunt Brook there when Brook was the first time in Cairo, so I think he have to be unsucessful yet. And I don't understand what's with Merryt. She lives now for over 8thousend years. Could it have something to do with her metal-amor? Well, OK I know a lot of questions but I hope some will answered in the second part of the story. But I have to wait still four veeerrryyyy looonnnngggg days. Ciao

Guess who's coming to the party later? Clicky my name for a clue...
Exin- Really, asci art in a CR? You should have realized it wouldn't work the first time...
Smash Brothers- SOunds like a cool game... Too bad I don't have an S64 (No, not a mispelling... Ihave a tendancy to think of a certain companies products as Shitendo...) But first Zelda and now this... Heck, for Zelda alone I've considered getting the system. (And Starfox64...) Ah well... Back to my now dead Saturn...
ED- I'm not evil, I was just gonna keep the room hopeful...

Howdy, all! :)
Fire Storm> Ack! I really apologize, because I think that in the past I've probably misspelled your name a bunch of times...
Coyote> Get well soon, and I hope that you never see another RL Excedrin headache ever again! :)
Kyryn> Aww...CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! It's a beautiful thing to be in love, trust me on that one...:) Hope that everything goes just wonderfully for the two of you! :)
Robby> Wow! I'm really impressed that you knew all the words to Yakko's Countries of the World song. I never got past 'Puerto Rico.' Although I *did* memorize the words to Wakko's States and Capitals song once for a middle school geography U.S. map quiz...:)
Deuce> Hope that you get to hang around here all the time now! :) And I understand how parents can be sometimes; they were the same way when I first got online. And right now I'm trying to convince them to let me go to the Gathering...And I hope that Valentine's Dance of yours went well. Tell me about it, if you can! :)
Tarzan> Hmm...maybe I'll have to check out "Tarzan" when it comes out...a little loincloth isn't always a bad thing...**shakes head to clear away evil thoughts** ;)
Heather> Glad to hear the surgery went okay! :)
**sighs** Have I mentioned before that I really don't like Valentine's Day? **sigh** I better not get into this now...
**RP!**
**The old jukebox has played all two of its songs over and over again, and Ravyn has only had to apologize once for stepping on Coyote's toes with her large talons. Elton John finally sets up on the stage, and immediately breaks into the most beautiful version of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" ever heard. Most of the guests edge a little closer to the dance floor to listen, and chaos is still ensuing elsewhere around the mansion. But Ravyn and Coyote only start to dance a little closer, oblivious to everything around them as the beautiful music plays on...** **END RP!**

Todd: How bizarre. Thanks for explaining anyway! :)
Nicodemus: Fascinating background! Thanks for stopping by! I actually far prefer the TGS character to Mozenrath, although the original was a very neat villain.
Eric: No new TV episodes, but we’ve got TGS, still! ^_^ Your egg idea, incidentally, would take so long that the idea would be pretty far stale by the time the new gargoyles hatched, I suspect.
Robby: (the multi-part trick) You are *evil*!
Spring French: Your intentions are admirable, but your Maths and English is deplorable.
Advert: My new (fourth) Gargoyles fanfic is up on my page! :)

Well, didn't get a chance to own a copy of the Japanese game called Smash Brothers for my N64 today. The store ran out of copies till Tusday, so I'll go back there and grab it then. For those not in the know, Smash Brothers is a fighting game starring the most well known Nintendo characters to date. You start out with Mario, Donkey Kong, Fox McCloud, Link, Kirby, Samus Aran, Yoshi, and Pikachu. There are 4 hidden characters also. The point of the game really is about kicking the person off the platform since they can all absorb past 0 damage. 4 player fighting action, too, so this really does get frantic. A definite must have and, best of all, no software blocking by Nintendo. Grab yourself a converter & a copy at your local game import store.
BTW, who was the resident Castlevania fan in here? I settled for a copy of the N64 Castlevania and I say go grab it now! It's well worth it.
SCHEDULE-- Ok, from now on it goes like this:
Monday: Gargoyles/Pendragon
Thursday: TimeDancer
WILEK-- I just played through the game (got to level 10 before I died). Remember that hitting start gives you a selection of other cats to use. Aside from the main cat you pick, each one has their own abilities. One swims well in water, one has a copter pack, one burrows through certain grounds, and one breaks stone blocks. Experiment with the controls for each one to find out who does what. It's also apparent through the outfits they wear. Also, don't forget that these cats have different special weapons (up and B) and that tapping twice in a direction causes you to run.
Like I said, hit my name to get to the lists of ROMs and MP3s I have thus far. If you want a request, tell me & I'll try to get it up there for a limited time.
Till next time...

Yeah, yeah, I know it's Friday, but:
**Extremely Random Thoughts on WTBB part 2 (Spoilers if you haven't read it, I guess)**
Awwwww, Richard and Quinn *sigh*..they're just so wonderful together; what more can I say about those two? The writing was great, intelligent, and flowed quite smoothly (as is always the case with Christi's work). Excellent imagery, too. It's always the little details in fanfiction that impress me; for example, the chit chat between Umbriel & the bartender (I think that's who it was), made the scene all the more realistic.
Anyway, back to the story itself : I never thought George would sacrifice Hope's health for his own. Y'know, I didn't really like George as a character at first, but I like him a lot more after the past couple episodes. Hmmm, Umbriel. I don't quite know what to think about this guy. I kinda like him though...it seems all he really wants is to take care of his fellow halflings, and he wants no part in the war. I really enjoy Loki's comic relief among the rest of the Unseelies...*laugh* ...lemur <g>...;o) Lexington actually seemed quite happy with his life was going, though Goliath seemed to want to convince him otherwise. Goliath's confusion over how Brooklyn knew what Sata was thinking before she said anything, made me wonder, how long was he mated to Demona before the spell was cast? He does seem to be a little oblivious to the feelings of others sometimes, but was he not close enough to Demona for the two of them to have the same feelings that Brook and Sata do? Or maybe it's just that, Brook and Sata were meant to be together and, well, Demona and Goliath weren't. Or maybe I'm looking too far into this =o)
To sum up: Great, great, and great!
**end Extremely Random Thoughts on WTBB part 2**
Well, I came on late Wednesday night to read a little from the CR before bedtime, and, boy howdy, Timedancer was up!! Gosh, was I surprised. So of course I had to stay up and read it, and normally I just skim stories the first time around, but not this time...let's just say I coulda used a lot more caffeine than was available to me Thursday morning at work. Anyhoo...
** NEW TD EPISODE SPOILERS AHEAD! **
Wow, not only is it a new ep, it tells us what happened with Brook and Meryt!! I had all but given up on ever hearing the backstory for "For Old Time's Sake". I really like how this was split up between the flashbacks and the 'current' happenings. And I always wondered how Sata would react if she met Meryt <g>. I thought Brooklyn seemed a little insensitive at times. I completely understood when Sata mentioned she would "cheerfully strangle" him if he didn't tell her what was going on. I was thinking the same thing as I was reading, actually.
And, it's funny, at first, I forgot that Meryt meant "beloved", heh, so I kept re-reading that part saying to myself, "wait, he didn't say 'beloved' anywhere!!!" Don't worry, eventually I caught on. And, also, I was very proud of myself when I figured out that when Khensu mentioned his 'enlightened' friends, he was talking about the Illuminati!! (I usually don't catch on to things like that!)
I think I'll go back and read this one a couple more times, at least. Can't wait for next week!!
** END NEW TD EPISODE SPOILERS **
Deuce> Very glad to see you back =o)
Well, I'm beginning to go cross-eyed (the wallpaper on my computer looks like one of those Magic Eye thingies <g>), I guess that means I should probably go to bed. G'night all.

They're getting rid of Cookie Monster? Say it ain't so... That's just plain WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!
Remakes- Miracle on 34th street remake was bad... Bye bye Birdie remake was bad. That Darn Cat Remake was Bad. Nutty Proffessor remake was bad. Incredible Mr. Limper remake with Jim Carrey will be bad... Remaking Willy Wanka? With Nick Cage? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Betcha that biotches drop the Ooompa Loompas entirely.
FF CGI- That is sickeningly real looking. If its gonna be that realistic, whats the point in animating it?
Airwalker- I didn't forget to count Vampires. They DON'T count. They are altered humans. Once vampires start being BORN they count, but not until. Ditto werewolves, though if they get in I'd have them be a sixth race period, not human offshoots.
**JIM'S PARTY**
"What the? The band left? I hired the Monkees for the whole night!" Jim complains.
"Well, after Demona and Brooklyn got together, Davy kind became depressed. And then his heart just wasn't in the music."
"Ah. Well, the jukebox only has two songs on it, and its already played through them four times! Who can pick up the slack?"
"I can," a voice says calmly from the crowd. Jim turns to see a man wearing the most outlandish glasses he's ever seen.
"I don't believe it.. You..? You'll play?"
Yes." Jim smiles with amazement.
"Ladies and gentlemen! SIR ELTON JOHN!"

Robby - You forgot to count vampires as a seperate race in your list. There not human anymore and they don't really fit into the other categories so maybe they should get their own. So so far we got Gargoyles, Humans, Oberon's Children, New Olympians, Dragons, and Vampires. (Also I would count Werewolves in the same category as vampires. They're not really human anymore and don't fit into any other category either.)
Say, now that Timedancer is up and running, what day will it be shown?
**COMMENTS ON TIMEDANCER EPISODE**
I thought that the Sata/Meyrt confrontation was very well done, and I glad that this was finally addressed. I was curious as hell about how and when Sata would find out about her husband's previous relationship. Now I wonder how she'll react if they ever came across Pandora?

**PARTY RP!**
[Wilek, Dark Mage Wilek, and Alucard have gotten all the more belligerent party guests either knocked out or sobered up by now, and Alucard is tossing his newly-acquired ball cap to Jake, who would probably like it better...when the mansion is stampeded by Pokemon. Wilek: "Annoying little things, aren't they." Alucard: "They're far worse than annoying, gargoyle. I've seen my father do this before. He shapeshifts his servant beasts into appealing forms, lets them gain the trust of their eventual victims, and once their guard is down, they assume their true forms and attack. Few have survived one of these Trojan assaults." Wilek briefly wonders if Zath actually witnessed the birth of Kitty. DMW: "Then I'd say we'd better start killing these Pokemon now before they become dangerous..."]
**PAUSE RP**
I have to say this here and now: Dumlao, that Samurai Pizza Cats game ROCKED. It's very true to the show and it's just plain kewl besides. Everyone here should get his/her hands/claws/tentacles/whatever on an NES emulator and GET THIS GAME. One problem: There are some square blocks in the first stage that I can't get past. Is there some kind of block-breaking special attack I can do that I'm not aware of?
Kermy> Welcome! Loved your last few movies! ^_^
exin> So THAT's what you've been trying to do! Kewl!
Ironwolf> You know, I've always thought that some werewolves remained sentient and in their right minds after their tranformations. I'm glad I'm not the only one who believes this.
Kyryn> First the weirdnesses with ravens, then with Vogel from CB, and now with Christine and Ironwolf. You, miss, are what we in the weirdness biz call an Infinite Improbability Vortex. If you ever encounter a telekinetic opera-singing goldfish, please contact me or an authorized representative of Miriam's organization immediately for further instructions. (Where *is* Miriam anyhow? $I haven't seen her since the party started. Oh, wait, she's probably having tea with Alfred, Mercy, Mr. Fix, Lennier, Vogel, and all the other quiet, efficient assistants at the party.$)
spring french> Welcome! And don't mind all the gators; they only harm intruders. ^_^ Um...we already have a new season. Of TGS anyhow.
$Coyote> I think we've gotten our lions crossed, or our dhambils anyhow. The Alucard who showed up at the party isn't from Lore, he's from Castlevania: Symphony Of the Night. Click my name for more info. (And something tells me he wouldn't be seen dead in a ball cap. Or undead as it were.)$
Maybe Tarzan is a fantasy/sci-fi hybrid, like Gargoyles. (Eh, I heard that this new Tarzan movie will be animated. Considering his less-than-conservative new wardrobe, I somehow doubt it'll get a G rating. In a Gargs movie, loincloths could be gotten away with, but *really*.)
Entity> I think your friend has recieved an acute Gargs overdose. Which means he'll be perfect for the CR. :)
Deuce> What...? You actually managed to get back here?! Extreme kewlies! Welcome back! And I love that song you quoted. (Of course, I haven't heard the music, I just made some up to sing it with...) Eh, you mean there's someone here who's sane AT ALL?! Where is he? Lemme at him! He won't be sane for long! >:)
Heather> Hi! Glad to see u here after all that hand stuff! :D Glad you're feeling better, or at least will be soon. ^_^
SJ> The Fruit Monster? Will any deities or otherwise highly evolved beings who happen to be listening please, please tell me this is a rumor or some rock-stupid psychopath's sick idea of a joke. If not, then it's final proof that a great many TV execs have succeeded in ramming their heads so far up their rear ends that they've imploded themselves into an intestinal alternate reality. BTW, did you know werewolves become vampires when they die?
**RESUME PARTY RP!**
[Alucard starts off the attack by casting a Soul Steal spell, eliminating a great number of the little pests, but there are hundreds and hundreds, so even that isn't much help. He then proceeds to become a wolf and begins eating the buggers--hey, he's half-vampire, and blood is blood--while Wilek liquefies them with a stolen Quarryhammer and DMW uses pyrokinesis spells.]

***PARTY RP****
Suddenly, a low rumbling begins to shake the house.....everyone grabs something for support. People grab onto doors, doorways, tables, couches, chairs, and Brooklyn accidentally grabs onto Demona (well....maybe not so accidentally, and hey, she doesn't seem to mind....). Abruptly, the cause of the rumbling bursts into the house...
It's a horde of POKEMON! That's right, those sickeningly cute, non-sensical, absolutely-so-freakin'-weird-they-must-be-Japanese-animated creatures storm the mansion, infecting everyone with their adorableness.
"Oh NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" SJ screams. "This is almost as bad as the smurfs! Dark Mage, Wilek, help!" He looks down at his feet, where one of the super-cute little beasts is nuzzling his leg.....
******PAUSE PARTY RP******
I'm sorry if that RP offends anyone. It's just that I find Pokemon strangely disturbing for some reason.....
Final Fantasy: This is for you gaming geeks in here. Apperently, folks are hard at work making a feature-length Final Fantasy MOVIE. All CGI animated. It should come out in a couple of years, but click on my name to go to the website to check it out.
Sesame Street: I just heard something today that left a pit in my stomach and a sour taste in my mouth.....Apparently, Sesame Street is doing away with Cookie Monster. The reason? Programmers are trying to teach kids that "cookies are bad for them." Cookie Monster will get the axe to be replaced with "Fruit Monster." This, my friend is sacrilege. It's more than that: it's the 7th sign of the Apocalypse. CURSE YOU PBS! CURSE YOU! A PAX UPN ALL OF YOU!!!!
*****BEGIN RANT****
Willie Wonka: It appears that in this great big cosmic game we call life, the powers that be aren't done screwing with me.
One of my favorite movies when I was a kid was Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. To this day I can still sing most of the songs verbatim. It is, IMO, a perfect film. PERFECT. That's exactly why the morons in Hollywood are REMAKING it. God, is there an original bone in all of Hollywood? Can they do nothing but remake old films or turn old, crappy tv shows into big budget films? For example: "My Favorite Martian." Has anyone seen the previews for this? This looks like the WORST piece of crap to come outta Disney (it is Disney, right?) in a looooong time. What's coming this summer--"Wild Wild West", a movie of a tv show, and "The Mummy", a remake of a film, for starters. Maybe they'll be good films, but how about an ORIGINAL film, huh? Just remember folks, next time you go see a piece of crap like that Psycho remake, and you shell out your hard earned money, you're sending a message to the dickhead executives that "this is the type of meaningless trash I want to see more of." That's how the jerks think. Films that should NEVER be remade, never be touched, get remade again and again while good, refresing projects--like GARGOYLES: THE MOVIE--will never see the light of day.
To make matters worse, and in a bit of casting I'm sure they must have been on crack to make, I've heard that Nic Cage is up for the part of the Wonka.
***END RANT***
Werewolves: Being a friend to the Vamire community, I can't stand the beasts. So violent, so angry, and their smell! I hope the Wyrm destroys you all. We've never liked you, and I think the feeling's mutual. ;-P
The Races: **SJ steps up to a conveniently nearby podium**
I, SJ, as elected spokesman of the International League of Clones, hearby request, on behalf of my clone brothers and sisters, recognition of clones as the official 6th race (after humans, gargs, fey, Olympians, and dragons). Just remember: Clones are people too.
Mardi Gras: Just 3 words can some up Mardi Gras--Breasts, breasts, and....oh yeah, breasts.

Hello everyone.
Mardi Gras> Yes, its Fat Tuesday, and a perfect sign of French Catholicism. Some of you may be familiar with Louisiana, especially southern Louisiana bayous, Cajun Couintry. The Cajuns are nice, firendly, and laid back (unlike the Parisians who are rude, secular and only shower once a month). Many are also good Catholics, but their Ctaholicism is not strict like the Irish or Spanish variety. They basically formed Mardi Gras as the last blow out wild nigt of parties, before forty days of scarifice and seriousness. Actually, the fact taht you can't party again for forty days really makes it worthwhile if you like to party :)
As for myself, I am not much of a partier and I don't drink, so it serves little use for me, and I have not been to Mardi Gras in three years. For the most part my mother used this day to force to have fun and lighten up, so it is not one I really enjoy. I might have done soemthing with Jessica, but she dumped so that's that. In fact, I was preparing something for Valentine's Day, but once she dumped me, I was off the hook and I saved a lot of money :)
Oddly enough, I like Lent, and it is amusing how hungover the city is on Ash Wednesday. Also Lent is good for losing the weight you put on from Thanksgiving until Mardi Gras , and then getting it back next November :)
Kathy> I am impressed by your researh. I recommend you visit the city of fun, debauchery, and corruption. I thought your fic was set in the 1890s myself.
Doug> I got your RP update. Attila and I should join in in the next few days. Attila has ties to the NRA and he has an mini-assault rifle autographed by Charleton Heston. Attila is not the best shot, but he is downright dangerous with his cat-of-nine tails. He can really sting me with that thing.
Deuce> I'm glad to hear your still with us. Hindu tatoo? You can always put on a turban and work at a quickiemart. Yes! Yes! Yes! :)
Kyrvyn> Civil war wedding. Nice. I just want mine to be a Latin Mass :) I'm surprised he'd pick Union down in Texas, though :)These pictures I must see. Actually, my great-great grandfather, Thoams Muldrup Logan, was a 24 year old General in the Civil War, but for the other side.
Now, my Fraternity is pledging new potentials, so I must depart.

If you're not interested in garg cels, don't read further. For a week I haven't gotten mail and I just discovered today that my email was blocked in aol preferences. Duh! Well, I've fixed that little problem, but now I have to repost my questions about cels again so this time, people who are interested can actually email. Here is the repost:
i'm just wondering, how many of u out there have cels from gargoyles? how many of you would be interested in one? i have access to a couple of cels i was thinking of buying if i thought i could resell them. i don't frequent this place, so if
you are at all interested in the thought of spending $50 - $200 (yes, it could be that much) for a cel from the show (not from the last season), email me at pegasia@aol.com. i might not see your response if you post it here. note: this is not a literal offer to sell. i am not currently selling anything. i'm just probing for possible interest.

Howdy all,
Finally back after indulging RL for the past week. Now I can enjoy the accolades for Timedancer.
Sun & the Serpent> Thank you, thank you for the compliments. thought I'd answer a few details.
As far as the timelines concerned, Brooklyn really doesn't have a calender to mark off how long he's been travelling, but when I was writing it, I placed Brooklyn's time in Egypt around his fourth year of Timedancing, after Flight into the Forest and considerably before he met Sata.
Ari> You want to talk about coincedences. I got the impression more than once that an unseen hand was pushing me to write this story. Every day of my research, I came across a program on the History Channel or Discover or the Learning Channel. Once there was any entire week devoted to the Ancient Egyptians. I go to the bookstore and there is a whole display on ancient Egypt the centerpiece the National Geographic on a newly discovered tomb. And then to top it all off there was the Prince of Egypt. If I wasn't a dragon, I'd find it thoroughly creepy. But I suspect Thoth had a hand in this. That or Fate in one of her more generous moods.
But I'll leave with this tidbit. In Egyptian mythology and symbolism, the Aten is the sun, guess what's the serpent?

Shows happiness unraveled /
And you gotta take a little dirt /
To keep what you love...." — Tonic, "If You Could Only See"
** Drum roll. Lights flash. Incredibly cool stuff happens. The earth opens up, and several incredibly evil young women fall in, screaming. A bus marked "#63 Southwood" explodes. (E-mail me for explanations of these good omens). Deuce has returned! **
I cannot believe my luck. I'm off the hook! Through a series of events I'd rather not explain, this whole stinky mess has been unravelled, my stomach is settled, and I may return to posting regularly (or as regularly as I've ever posted). I would like to thank every last person who e-mailed me over the past few days; I don't know what I would have done with your support and friendship. *applause*
I'll reply, but first I want to tell everyone what happened to me last night. My mom took me over to my friend's house, where she met up with his mom and a friend of theirs from California. They had a little party, and my friend and I disappeared downstairs to listen loudly to music. We came up for something (I forget exactly what) and my mom's friend offered me and Matt some of "Mike's Hard Lemonade". Of course, since I'm not allowed to drink, I expected my mom to say no, which she did. She said, quote: "No! Not on a school night!" *laughs* Well, we talked her into it, and the stuff tastes great! I also realized that the same metabolism that prevents me from gaining weight in any way but extreme physical exercise gives me the alcohol tolerance of an elephant. 473 mL of 6.9
lcohol to a guy my size (135 lbs) should leave you piss-drunk. I get more of a kick from an equal amount of Pepsi.
I also got one of those funky henna tattoos on the back of my hand, too. I found out today it's some Hindu religious symbol. *cringe* Oops!
Coldstone> "Punkin"? I've gotta read this.
Coyote> $ ["With a small amount of manipulation...."] My idea of manipulating pesky jukeboxes is a swift kick. Usually works, too. :-) $
Jackal> You are not, by far, the most sane one here. I don't know who it is, but it ain't you. Sorry to hurt your illusion.. :-)
Well, I guess I didn't have that much to catch up on. I'll be back tomorrow, I promise. Oh yeah, and I get to go to my school's Valentine dance tonight! Wish me luck! ;-)
** leaves, knowing that this time, he'll be coming back soon. **

Kermit the Frog- Welcome! I've always wanted to know one of the muppets! That song's "The Rainbow Connection", right?
Ironwolf- There IS a fourth race already. The New Olympians. And a fifth as well. Dragons. And I plan to push for a werewolf or two, but we've already seen one in the series ala Fox, so don't count on it.
Mardi Gras- Oh geez... Is that coming? It gets bad down here... But even worse, its RODEO season!
Eric- Hi!
Stephen- While Tarzan is not Sci-FI by the usual definition, ORIGINALLY it was. Go figure.
James- Um... What was that RP about?
Entity- Your friend's run seems very similar to my first weekend online, but at the time, I was already a garg fan from the series, and since your friend had a job and school... But then, I did the same reading in a weekend... Your friend is at least tied with my record...

Tarzan> I don't see it as science fiction, but I can see how it could be thought of that way. Tarzan is, disregarding all the layers of romanticized cultural flab, the theoretical story of what would happen if a human baby were to be left alone in a jungle and be raised by its inhabitants. It's an idea repeated in other stories, like "The Jungle Book", and lots of other stuff... even "Lord of the Flies" could kind of be compared to it. But at the root, it does have an iota of science fiction. Well, more like 'philosophy fiction'.
BTW, I have a friend who has become an overnight Gargoyles addict. Within a week's time, on top of school and his job, he's just a couple stories shy of finishing TGS' entire first season (main cycle), has read a dozen of Christine's 'fics, and been rumaging through fan art and other assorted, fandom-related items of online interest. Just thought I'd bring it up. Does this break any kind of a record?

Coldstone: **shrugs** Oh well, *I've* always considered it sci-fi, since feral children have been documented in the past.
And that's Phil Collins? Huh ... it sounded like Peter Gabriel to me in the preview ...

Sorry to 2x post...
GASPARILLA> To learn more about it, clickie my name to learn about this celebration! (Christine Morgan would no doubt love to hear about it, if her story "The Scotish Rogue" is any indicator) ^_^
BANDO'S COMMENT ON TARZAN> Sorry to tell you this, Don, but Tarzan is considered a "Fantasy" story, NOT Sci-Fi. The General definition of a Sci-Fi Story is that the content can be explained by science and technological terms.
Also, from the look of the scenes, and stills that I've sceen, I doubt this one's going to be filled with drek... well, at least the soundtrack is going to be good, since Phill Collins is doing it! :)

MARDI GRAS> Speaking of Mardi, that just reminded me of a similar celebration that I'll be missing back in Tampa, Flordia:
Every February, the City of Tampa Bay celebrates a long standing event called "Gasparilla". It's to signify the landing of a Spanish captain named Jose Gaspar, who steered his ship into Tampa Bay (for what reason I don't remember offhand) to a place that is just off of a small island called Davis Island. Usually within the first 2 weeks or so, a massive day parade - in which various "Krewes" sponsor floats and groups - filled with people in pirate costumes, throw beads, coins, and other such trinkets to the crowds that line a stretch of bayfront streets along Bayshore Blvd. (which is incidentialy in the Guiness Book as having the Longest Contiuous Sidewalk in the World). Balls and other parades (including a night parade down through Tampa's historic Ybor City District) also mark this month long celebration.
It's the closest thing to Mardi that you can get living In Florida.
Just thought I'd share. Maintain and Check Six!

Greetings
***Spoilers***
TimeDancer! TimeDancer! TimeDancer! At long last my life is complete. Well not quite complete, I need Dark Ages and a cheese sandwich.
A great episode. Though I did find the flash back a wee bit confuseing untill I realised it was a flash back. I thought Brooklyn and Sata had just Timedanced further into the past a first. Some text saying something along the lines of "Flash Back" might have helped.
I really found the sceane with Brooklyn's old friend (forget his name) interesting. I can't wait t
