Bronx Wyvern > Aaaauuuuuuggggghhhhh! I want one! Just when I think my collection's getting complete ... darn darn darn! ; )

Doug > thank you for waiting so impatiently (it's good to know I've still got it! <g.). I have a Silver Flame commission to do, and then I will be finishing Dark Beauty.

Off-topic book stuff > I had my first in-store reading and signing yesterday and it was GREAT! What fun! (and speaking of origins for the names of the twins, hee-hee, at some future point Brooklyn and Sata could have picked up the ElfLore trilogy, which stars a charactr named Ariana ...)

Gee, Dumlao wasn't kidding about a late wipe this go around...

65 DAYS UNTIL STARWARS EPISODE ONE!

**BEASTWARS SPOILERS**

Okay, I was upset when I heard Megatron was gonna be turned into a dragon, but now that I've seen it... WOAH he looks awesome!

**END BEASTWARS SPOILERS**

Ironwolf- Yeah, you warned us about Wing Commander, but I had hoped that being a fan of the series and games, I'd see past the flaws.

TRC- I sent you a summary of what happened in BeastWars and War Planets yesterday. Not much, they were reruns. But today, AWESOME new episode!

Kiato- I liked your creativity demon with Lex saying its not easy being green.

Kermit- Welcome back! (Reads second message) To posting!

Jackal- Oh come on man, did you have to tell us about those puppies? That does it, from now on, I just skip your posts.

Okay, its probably a given most of ya will be too busy reading this weeks story to get around to what Heather told ya to find, let alone hunt for the link, so here's a link to her story, and then some. (Click click)Eesh, shamelessly plugging for my girlfriend, there's a shocker.

****TGS SPOILERS****
The Longest Day Part 2: An excellent conclusion to the story. I suspected that Demona's spell would interfer with the unseelie earthquake spell. The scene with Demona and Andrea was very well written. You can really start to see a change in both Demona and the Clan's attitude toward her. One minor problem - though it seems that the dream belonged to maeve it was never made absolutely clear whose dream it was.

Snow day!
I found a really cool deal at KB Toys. They were selling alot of unopened boxes of collecter cards, and one of them was Gargoyles! The original price was something like $30, but it had been cut down to six! I now have a complete set, a nearly complete set of doubles, and about a forth of a set of triples! *BIG smile!*

TRAVELER> [Hotmail thinks my first name is Darth...] LOL!
FANLIGHT and KAHREEN> Nice to meet you! Don't worry about that blue tree by the door, it's our new bouncer.
CELANO> I wanna help too!
SJ> [Do you smell what the Rock is cooking...] I don't think you really want me to answer that, as I am getting rather sick of that question! (j/k!)
BRONX WYVERN> Don't worry about the triple post. If it's not your fault, you have an excuse to hurt Mr. DC! :) Also: Congrats on your find! The only Gargs toy I can find ANYWHERE is one of Macbeth.

USA Today vote> Who won, Animaniacs or Doug?
Names/ Pronunciations>I definately prefer the TGS names. I always pronounced Graemae gra-MAY, but how do you pronounce 'Sata'? SAY-ta or SA-ta?
Quetion> Exactly how much of the design of the Gargoyles is copyrighted?

Uhhh... I'm too tired... and I still have this damn head cold.

<>WARNING! JACKAL RANT START!<>

Jackal: Prozak is for depression, DEFINATELY not for whatever is messed up in you.
Puppies are where I draw the line.
I am very tolerant of most things that people say or do with thier lives. I draw the line at two things:
1. Baby humans (Shaken baby syndrome. :(
2. Puppies
Jackal, you need some serious help. With how your lifestyle is, you are not helping yourself and you are certinaly not helping your children.
Think about this question long and hard, Jackal:
Do you want your kids growing up to be like you?

АААААPossible "censorable" material ahead, depends how you look at it.ААА

<<how'd your test go? You know, THAT one. You okay?>>
Ohh yeah!! I told yall about that..., I forgot. I am Negative! YaY for me! Clap for me damn it!!! hehehehehee I'm on Prozac. Not legally.., but I'm on it. Oww yall guess what! A friend of mine, her dog had puppies about 3 dayz ago, she had 7 of em, and it was cold that day..., ok, cause she had em early in the morning...., I'm guessing 6/7 am. Well, we didn't notice the dog had the puppies until after 1. So we went out there and yall...., it was soo sad and patheitc it was funny. There was 4 little frozen to death puppies scattered in the backyard. And my friend Vanessa, she gets the remaining living puppies and puts them inside the house, and I take the momma dog inside too! Well, me being the person I am..., thought something needs to be done with these 4 dead puppies...., something they'll be remembered for, being there life was soo short...., So I go pick them up and pile them on the picnic table, I tell Vanessa to go get the video camera, she's like why? I said just go get it. When she comes out, she sees me playing with these dead dogs like puppets. OK, I had two of them, one in each hand, facing each other, and I'm acting like they're talking to one another..., like this...
АААHello, how are you?
I'm good, dead, but good.
Really?! I'm dead too, how did you die?
I froze to death because my mom couldn't keep up with all of us.
Yeah!? That's how I died!ААА
Well, that convinced Vanessa I needed alittle mental help..., that I was emotionally stressed or some crap like that. So I took her advice and went and got me some Prozac! I don't feel parnoid, but I feel like some people are watching me..., when I'm out in town anyway. What was I talking about??? Oh yeah. I'm HIV negative, and they gave me 20 condoms, and I was like thanks even though I have no one to use them on, not that I'm bitter, but anyway, moving forward....
<<Hope your absence from this place didn't drive you too sane.>>
I've never felt better. Ohh, speaking of never feeling better, did I tell yall when I got arrested for public drunk..., at Pizza Hut? Anyway, I need to report to my probation officer 2morrow, isn't that cute?!?? I'm thinking of taking the video camera with me..., See, I've never had an offense serious enuf to have a probation officer, might as well document the first time, ya know? They..., well the judge told me that I could not drink or do drugs during my probationary period. Well you know me..., I said can I do drugs after? If looks could kill, that judge would've brutally murdered me. What am I talking about??!??
<<Puff Daddy> but just knowing it's rap is enough to keep me away>>
It's not rap, it's other people's R&B hits..., but your right for keeping away! I'm great if anyones asks.....
<<Then he said to me, that he thinks that all people that do not belive in the Christan GOD should go to Hell>>
Just call him Pysco God boy. Ask him if his God will save him from the ass whoopin your about to give him, hehehehee. But no really, just tell him, "If your God is that ignorant, then I'll want to be as far away as I can get fom him." I speak from experience, I'll burn in the everlasting pits..., how bout you???
<<Maybe then I'll find out how you resolved that situation we discussed in e-mail.>>
I think a few words will sum it up for the time being..., hurt, pain, anger, confusion, don't give a flying..., squirrel. If anyone asks, I'm great!
<<As for God, what does an Almighty being transcending the limits or our understanding by His very ~ existence ~ care what syllables or animal grunts we use to identify Him?>>
The voice of reason!! Listen to this instead. See, I believe in God, (as do demons and devils, so says the bible), I just don't like him.

Kaito It is normal to be 18 and have Sesame Street flashback. For me especially, I've worked on the show for thirty years now. Shame about Cookie Monster. Have you people heard about whats happening to him? He's being replaced by a fruit monster. I think its stupid. Cookie is a good friend of mine.

**RP!**

[On the Avatar Of Ganon...Administrator: "All that remains of Area 51 is now ours. Unfortunately, none of the crew knew where Thailog's main base was, and the coordinates were not stored in any of their computer systems, so we do not have that information." Wilek: "Dang. On the other hand, we *do* have those Metal Gear 5000s." Administrator: "We also know that a fleet belonging to one Admiral Nipon has launched and is in transit to a location known as NORAD." Wilek: "Uh oh...Launch the MG5000s to intercept...and arm them with some of your new weapons. The more we use those, the more our ranks seem to increase... <evil chuckle>"]

**END RP!**

Robby> <<wonder which one is right?>> Probably the TGS staff knows. Howz 'bout it dudez? <g> <<Perhaps NOW its understandable as to why I want to wait to put my stories up for when she's done all the art for them>> Is it ever! I've already mailed her to ask if she can e-mail me a scanned pic instead of giving her my mailing address. Probably going to have her do pics of Miriam, myself, and me in human form (for a future story).

Bronx Wyvern> Congratulations on finding that Bronx toy! (Why did I never encounter one?! I go to Toys R Us all the time looking for Gargs stuff!)

Celano> Your manifesto is fascinating reading...But Undertaker should probably survive. He may be a wrestler, but anyone who has lines like 'I am the weaver of nightmares' (which *must* find its way into my fics) can't be all bad. :P

Fleur> <<*Fleur tries to imagine this, but her mind shields away from the mental image in pure terror.*>> Ohh...does this remind me of a story. A while back, I was besieged by mental imagery of the canon Gargs characters as drawn by Matt Groening (Simpsons artist). To alleviate this, Doug directed me to a twisted little tale called The Simpgoyles (for which I somehow forgot to thank him; I hereby do so). Now, my mind does with Groening imagery what yours does with that song. A substantial improvement over my former state of affairs, I assure you. <<is there a smiley for 'impressed'?>> How 'bout... 8O

Heather> Interesting idea...I'd certainly like to see how the problem would be resolved; the author of such a story would have to be pretty clever...

Steve> <<There ya go, Wilek, you are having an effect on us>> You mean with the technobabble? <ehehehe> Yes...soon we tech geeks will rule the earth, and the technologically impaired will devolve into little more than simple mindless primates who we will train to fetch slippers and play dead! EEEEEEEEEEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAH! <G> BTW, www.emux.com always carries the latest versions of most emulators (I think), in case you need to upgrade. I think the latest ZSNES is .800c.

SJ> Um...what the Rock is cooking? Jabronie? What language is this? Jabronie doesn't sound like Latin or Greek...maybe it's from one of the Slavic languages... :)

$TRC> Well...you should probably avoid setting events into motion that would destroy a significant amount of our combat hardware (ships, drones, etc), but other than that, probably nothing major. I'm not sure I even have anything planned out at all; I've mostly been making this up as I go along...$

Kaioto> <<I wonder what it means to be 18 and still have Sesame Street flash backs>> It means that your memory is almost as bizarre as mine.

*Staggers in, off balance and haggard* Hi everybody boy was Spring Break a disappointment this year and on top of it all I have an ear infection sigh some weeks it does not pay to get out of bed. Still, it's good to be back. :)

Wish the CR had wiped today ... could'a come back in style ... but that's just pride eh? The words should always be more important than a place in line. *Shrugs*

Ragnorok & Nostradamus: Hey so what, doom comes? I don't believe in destiny, but in free will. Our future is our own. How hard we are willing to fight for it will ultimately determine how much we effect change around us. Our hearts and wisdom will determine whether these changes are for good or for ill. If the world is plunged into darkness by an anti-Christ, then it will be because we sucked so bad we let it happen. If the Unseelie win and enslave mankind, or life is extinguished, it is because to many of us did not assert our A-THORIT-AY! *Ala Eric Cartman* The responsibility does not fall to some guy writing mysticism centuries ago, nor ancient superstitions from a bunch of my bearded relatives that the Norse Fay turned into their servants and worshipers millennia ago. It lies not on the shoulders of a few surviving gargoyles and a few lucky enlightened folks. It lies not in the hands of a blue skinned freak and his pack of lap-dog followers either. It lies in the hands of you and I. The Anti-Christs all got away with their evil because people Chose to look the other way, not some mystical force of destiny. Destiny and luck are merely ways to walk away from a victory with the prize, and a defeat without taking responsibility. The Unseelie are vulnerable to anyone who can lay hands on an iron spike. Stake 'em if you got 'em.

Ravyn: I think the world would be a much better place if people sought understanding instead of hid in fear. I understand the parental mentality, but the situation is still poor. Sorry. Hope to see you bad as soon as you can. Good luck.

Lawrence: Closed hearts and closed minds have no place in the worship of the Maker. I want to apologize for that boy's rude, ignorant, and foolish statement. With people like that kid growing up uncorrected in this world is it any wonder people kill each other over a few lines of unimportant dogma at the cost of all their core values? Judgement does not come for the Christians and the non-Christians to be set apart, but for the wicked and the good to be set apart. Ghandi most certainly went to Paradise. Christ was not a Christian. As for God, what does an Almighty being transcending the limits or our understanding by His very ~ existence ~ care what syllables or animal grunts we use to identify Him? Christ taught that the sincerest form of worship lay in the doing or good and the spreading of love an understanding. That boy who bothered you does not have the slightest inkling of what it truly means to Live as a Christian.

Nature Philosophy in General: God's substance is that which the universe is made out of, and His force of Creation binds all things together. Every living and unliving thing in the universe and any others that exist are connected in common by that force. Every tree and star is testimony to His majesty and sharing such wonder in testimony to His love. God ~ is ~ the universe, the Earth, the sky, the void of space, the grass, you, and me. All exist in the Mind of God, a model of thinking many Catholic Theologians have come across and the Church accepts. So why is it that folks claim to follow the Church and Christ then disrespect ~ anyone ~ let alone those who appreciate the simple gifts of God more than they? There are certainly poor examples of each camp to be witnessed. If you look only at the trees, you see neither the forest nor God. If you look only at the altar and mumble prayers while other things cloud your mind and heart like hatred and greed, then you receive neither God's sacraments nor wisdom. Closed hearts and closed minds have no place in the worship of the Maker.

My Creativity Demon Struck Today: Picture if you will, Lexington - all alone - sitting on the parapets of the castle, his legs dangling off the side over the sprawling metropolis below when he sighs and begins, "It's not easy being green " I wonder what it means to be 18 and still have Sesame Street flash backs? :)

Nightmare: The most horrifying nightmare I can conceive of is the one that haunts me most: The fate of Pontius Pilate. Torture and death are frightening, but a thousand times more dreadful is to have murdered your God.

Wow that was an utterly depressing thought. Well, I guess that's my biggest demon. *Sigh*

Lexy- Fire Storm pretty much summed it up. The names Graeme, Ariana, and Sata were used before Greg said what his plans were, or the fact that the two kids would be different ages. By that point, there were already a couple of canon pieces, and it was too late to go back. As far as explaining some of the names, well... I'm part of the Timedancer season 3 staff, (In theory... Planning has to start for that first... Right now all we've got going is a bunch of Dark Ages stuff... Sigh...) and I have a couple of plans to explain Graeme and Ariana's names. Can't say what they are here for security reasons, and besides, they haven't been accepted yet... But trust me, I'll make sure your request to see why the characters were named what they were named comes up... (Besides, Nudnik was actually named in Out of Joint if I recall correctly.)

***SPOILERS*** Steve< im with you man. TGS is good. i just was really disapointed when they went and changed Katana's, Nashvills, Tachis, and Fu-dogs names. WHY?? why not take the challenge and write in a story to explain WHY these characters where named these?? And why NOT keep it the way it was, Tachi youner the Nashville..oh well.
Just think..how did they get those names..hmmmm I always thought mabey..that Brooklyn could meet Katana..cant speak her language yet..so he goes in and TRIES to talk..but scews it all up..hears the word 'KATANA' mabey a fellow clanmate refering to her blade..so he THINKS thats her name..and uses that to refer to her..later on it sticks.
For Nash..i dont know..heck..mabey they were traveling in an airplane and they were hiding in the cargo area and someone accidentally stamped his egg post marked to NASHVILLE so they ended up carrying that darn egg around till they got used to calling it nash or nashville and it stuck..FU dog, mabey NASH named him when he was lil I DONT KNOW!! but its fun to think these up..not to change the names..*shrugs* oh well..

Darn, I was all set to do my Highlander impression once again.

Movies: Wow, boy am I glad I didn't go see "Wing Commander". Between the reviews from you guys and from the paper, that film must have been one big stinker (but not the worst this weekend--"Baby Geniuses" takes the cake as Most Retarded Film of the Year). I knew things didn't look good when a) they changed the Kilrathi, who I rather liked as felines, and b) made pretty much all of the leads young twenty-something actors (I could go into another rant against Hollywood Youth, but I won't). Yeah, Mark Hamill, Tom Wilson, and the rest may not sell as many tickets as Freddie Prinze Jr., but at least they know the character and can act it well.
Bad news is that I hear "Analyze This" was number 1 again. What is it with this movie? This looks like the WORST film Bobby D's done in a long time. I mean, I'm not a big fan of his, but he's done better than this!

Oh well. I'm looking forward to seeing "The Matrix" when it comes out. Coolest trailer I've seen recently (besides the SW v.2), even if it does have Keaunu Reeves in it. "I am an FBI agent!" "There's a bomb on this bus!"

Gargoyle Archive: AGAIN??? *Sigh* Great, just when they got it working like I liked it.....

Coyote: Need not be ashamed of your feelings, my friend. I thought your little speech was beautiful (although I must admitt I felt a little uncomfortable reading it--it was probably a little too personal for my wandering eyes). You're a real great guy, you know that? I'm gonna be praying for you too, but I know you'll be strong.

Pro Wrestling: All you wrestling haters had better know your role and shut your whole, otherwise I may have to lay the smack down on your candy-asses! Do you smell what the Rock is cookin? Don't mess with me or my pro wrasslin, you jabronie. And if you don't like it, I got 2 words for you: S*** it!!!!!!!!!!!

Farscape: Anyone check this out on the USA network tonight? It's gonna be one of the new shows on the Sci-Fi channel. Looks kinda good, with the folks at Jim Henson Studios doing the aliens, which is great. Regardless of all the new technological advances, I still have a soft spot for animatronics. Give me "Labyrinth" or "Dark Crystal" anyday!
BTW, anyone know the name of the book they did on all the various goblins from the Labyrinth? It had some great artwork in there, and a little background on all the various creatures.

Hey all,

***X-Files Spoilers***

Pretty good episode tonight, all things considered. We finally get to see Area 51 and what's going on there. And while I'm a vocal opponent of "body-switching" plots (sorry, we got waaaaaaay too many of those movies in the 80s), they're handling it pretty well. The scene at the crash site freaked me out, and by the time the gas station was destroyed I was already thinking "localized spacetime distortion." There ya go, Wilek, you are having an effect on us. :)

I was so wrapped up in finding out what the hell was going on - and busy LMAO at some parts (Mulder's escapades with Fletcher's family and Fletcher hitting on the secretary) - that I lost all track of time and the "To Be Continued" brought a shout of protest. Dammit, Chris Carter, you just *gave* us a two-parter a month ago! Argh! Can't wait for the next part, this one definitely gets my approval.

**End Spoilers***

Wilek > Thx for the emulator info, I'll have to check out which version I'm using. Yeah, I checked out the Essential Guide to Vehicles, but never bought it because I was on the receeding edge of my Star Wars kick at the time (hey, I'd already spent hundreds of dollars on SW RPG sourcebooks). Cool-looking book, but I never liked the design they gave for the Sun Crusher. I always thought it looked way too much like a bowling pin than the sleek, fast ship it was described as in the books.

Story idea.....( Might be stupid idea)This is not a TGS story idea.

I know some of you odn't like the show Road Rules/Real World but I was wonder what if during "Equality" Angela puts in an application if herself for the show ? And after she gets accepted......but how could she become human for TWO MONTHS ?

Think about it.

**RP**
The TV turns itself on, showing Fleur plummeting down the elevator shaft, trying to open her wings, but unable to glide in the confining space. Desperately, she half turns and grabs the elevator cable with both hands, and screams as the top layer of skin on her hands are sheared off by the friction. Finally, she stops falling. Hanging there, she hears the sound of bells ringing, and somebody saying 'red alert'. A second later, the elevator shafts starts vibrating slightly. Fleur looks down and sees another elevator coming up.
"Oh sh.."
The TV chooses this moment to switch off.

Hi all,

Coyote> Don't you dare appologise for what you called 'navel grazing'. It's how you feel and frankly, you have every right to feel the way you do. I know it's been said, but I'll add my voice to everyone else's - we're here for you buddy, and like you, we're hoping. *hugs*

Robby>>The hamsters music is the Disney's Robin Hood theme, sped up, sung badly and with an evil laugh at the end< *Fleur tries to imagine this, but her mind shields away from the mental image in pure terror.* Wow, it doesn't do _that_ very often. :)

Kyryn> You out ran a tornado? I'm impressed. (is there a smiley for 'impressed'?)

Traveller> >you have asthma to?< Yeah. Normally it's okay, except when I get a cold or something. Then things get very interesting. That Humanity stuff was well said. BTW, welcome back. :)

Lawrence Stone> I've also had an unpleasant encounter with somebody who thought I should believe as they did. The best, and only, advice I can offer is to try not to let them get to you. It's hard, but when all's said and done, those kind of people are just not worth it.

FANLIGHT> Welcome to the insanity! And I promise I won't confuse you with your sister.

Jewel> I'm with Wilek - What the heck is the story behind that quote?!?

Mary> Ew, what a shocking week. My sympathies.

Bronx> *grins* Congratulations on getting your Bronx toy.

SJ> Of course Al Gore didn't invent the Internet! Geez, everyone knows that. It was Dogbert and the garbageman - they just blamed it on some college kid. :)

Kitania> You really want to read it? Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you. Buffy isn't even the primary crossover, so when I posted it to the BtVS creative newgroup, I changed the disclaimer to warn people. That version of "Wherever You Are" is linked below if you're interested - but you have been warned.

Wing Commander> I pretty much agree with all that's been said. But what really makes me mad is that because of some of the new flicks out now, "Blast From the Past" isn't showing ANYWHERE in this state! Arrgh! It hasn't been THAT long; "Payback" is still in theaters!

**NON SPOILERS FOR WING COMMANDER AND BATMAN BEYOND**

Wing Commander- I started to see this today. About half way through it, I walked out and demanded my money back. It was awful! I won't bother giving a critique, Kitainia hit most of the bad points I saw, but I suppose part of the reason I disliked it is because it was so untrue to excellent games and series... The characters I knew and loved were badly portrayed, and the Kilrathi... **sigh** Ah well, at least I saw the Star Wars trailer a third time...

Batman Beyong- Todays episode was okay... Like everyone else I like that Bruce had a spotlight again, but I dunno... My like of the series was hurt after the Freeze episode, which was excellent. Ah well, bring in Rash Al Ghul and then we'll talk...

**RP ALERT**

At the secret base, the bad guys heading for NORAD begin getting into their vehicles and shipping out. The ocean jump-gate opens again and the cloaked Star Destroyers pull out, heading west toward Colorado Springs. It looks like Thailog's army will soon begin enacting its plans.

Meanwhile at the Marsh Building, Kitainia is guarding the rear as her friends run for the roof and Traveler. The security guards have just destroyed the mad robot, and as she backs up and fends them off with her laser, Kit turns to make a CR post.

**RP PAUSED TEMPORARILY**

DumlaoX: Cool new pic of you. I wonder what the occasion is (you're all dressed up!).

Jackal: Welcome back to the CR. Hope you'll soon return to us in full. Maybe then I'll find out how you resolved that situation we discussed in e-mail. :)

Atilla: <grins, returns nudges with long leisurely pats>

Wilek: Oh, you are so right about Traveler. And I think Doug already told you how I tasted bear meat.

Ravyn: Doug and I continue to pray for you. Hope your parents understand your feelings soon and let you come back. Good luck. <puts up a wax-catching cloth around the lit candle>

Coyote: Don't get too sad about Ravyn leaving us now, we all know she'll be back. Although it is a good thing that the two of you love each other so much. Love like that usually doesn't die, and if it does it never dies easily. I hope you two are reunited soon and eventually have a very long and happy life together. :) BTW, thanks for the great entertainment of "Liberty or Death!"

Deuce: Right. <grin>

Christine: I wish you continued good luck with getting your novels published. Hope I can read them soon. :)

JEB: Don't worry, we will enjoy it. Especially tonight, when Gubio, Jammer, and Tricia host their infamous Bryn Mawr style bra party! (Don't worry, inquiring minds, there will probably be a synopsis of its most entertaining events posted in here.)

Mandi: First Buffy fic? Okay, I have to go read it. Soon as I finish posting in here.

Traveler: Welcome back to the CR. Hope to see you again soon. <smile>

**BEGIN SPOILERS FOR WING COMMANDER, THE CORRUPTOR, AND CARRIE 2**

Wing Commander: Two words for this movie- Insultingly Cliched. The Star Wars preview before it was great, but the movie itself...Ugh. For starters there were major plot holes, and the plot was also comic book style. Little or no explainable character development, they totally snubbed Maniac after his girlfriend died, so much of the action was TOO convienent, etc, etc, etc. I also disliked what they did with the Kilrathi (what happened to those great noble but villainous felines they had in the cartoon?) and got really angry at the movie's treatment of women. One of its female characters died foolishly, and the other only survived so she could kiss Blair at the end. Grr... Doug and I gave this movie a 5/10, thumbs down. At least it had some good space battles.

The Corruptor: This was a good movie. I liked all the character development they did on Danny and Nicholas. Henry Li also made a great villain ("You're under arrest. "Let me introduce you to my lawyer."). The movie's plot was very easy to follow, and flowed great. The action was also excellent. I felt like crying when Chow Yun-Fat(who turned in a very good preformance)'s character got killed. Eight/ten stars, thumbs up.

Carrie 2: Also a good movie. Cool action, great plot and character development, and at the end all the bad guys got what they deserved. (That I always like to see.) Also two very cute leads, both of whom put in great preformances. And the end scene, whoa, that creeped me out. I haven't been that scared in a long time. Kudos to the producers for it. This movie gets a 9/10, thumbs way up. :)

**SPOILERS OVER NOW**

Fanlight: Welcome to the CR. Hope we end up liking you as much as we do your sister.

SJ: Oh, come on, Doug and I are badasses! Aren't we? And we're independent. Guess we must be the exceptions that prove the rule. :)

Oh, btw, everyone, the GFW archive is down AGAIN. Let's all pray that Chris gets it back up soon. And if any of you want to punish Mr. DC for it, feel free. I would myself, but I can't think of anything appropriate.

That's all for now. Later.

**BACK TO RPING**

Kitainia shoots down the last few pursuing guards, just as the Ravens rush through the door to the roof. Traveler and the Stooges are still up there, laughing and clowning around. Apparently they are oblivious to the battle going on in the building. Marsh's emergency escape helicopter is beside them, its rotor blades spinning. Boris fires his bazooka and destroys it, getting Traveler's attention. The others quickly take measures to prevent Traveler from getting away. Lathrop casts an anti-teleportation field on the roof, Shauna points her bow at Curly, Shap his shotgun at Larry, and Mist her chaingun at Moe. Doug and Kitainia cover Traveler with their weapons while Stephanie and Jaden watch the door. "Okay, Traveler," Kitainia tells him. "We got you trapped. I believe you have some explaining to do." "Kitainia!" Traveler grins sheepishly. "Doug! Good to see you guys!! Let me guess, you want to know about my involvement with Marsh and Khaos, Inc!" "Right," says Doug, waving the gun at him. "Start talking." "Well, it's like this..." (We'll let Traveler pick things up from here. He better do it soon so we may continue.) The screen fades out.

I've always thought that Graeme's name was pronounced to rhyme with flame. As for the names themselves, I think Graeme and Ariana are better than Nashville and Tachi, though I don't think it would've mattered if they used the original names, they aren't bad. But I prefer Nudnik over Fu-dog most definately! ;)

BTW, what's with the 'TGS Illustrated Quotes' link? I clicked on it and alls I got was a copy of the main page...

The link to my name is to my site... I updated it on March 6th, and remember to change your bookmarks and links to the new fortunecity URL. (If the bookmark to my page is at fortunecity, you don't have to worry about anything.)

*****SPOLIERS FOR BATMAN BEYOND******
I'm happy to see that the crew is putting out new episodes rapidly.. but I would appreciate it if they would show the other episodes than showing the very first one... cause that just gets boring :P Anyhow, "Shriek" was pretty good, I liked that they inculded Bruce more this time. Sure Terry is the star now, but Bruce began it all, and he should have equal on the spotlight. I'll look forward to see if Shriek will egt his hearing back, becasue he does make a formidable opponent for Terry. We shall see though.

SEVARIUS JR. - You have a point about the fay, but I still think that trying to wipe out the entire lot of them without inquiring into which ones are guilty and which ones are innocent is the same sort of thing as Demona's genocide schemes which would wipe out pro-gargoyle humans such as Elisa alongside gargoyle-haters like the Canmores.

* BATMAN BEYOND SPOILERS *

I liked "Shriek". For one thing, the focus was finally back on Terry and Bruce, where it belonged, rather than using them as just the plot device for foiling the villain. The bit at the end where Bruce revealed that he still thinks of himself as Batman, even after having passed on the torch to Terry, which Sevarius Jr., was a particularly effective touch. So was the bit where he showed Terry the theatre where his parents were murdered, which started it all. Another memorable piece was the silent battle; did anybody else besides me consider it to be positively creepy?

Demona Taina> A lot of what you said is correct, but a couple (like Angela kissing Broadway) was in 'The Journey', the first episode which *was* written by Greg Weisman, and which is considered canon (and which I personally liked very much). And blood was shown throughout the series, not only in TGC.

Graeme's name> I pronounce it to rhyme with supreme: Wasn't "Ari and Graeme, the team supreme" said in the very first episode?

Though I do prefer Nashville... :) but that's just because I like the combination Nashville and Tachi, better than Graeme and Ariana.
I hate "Fu-dog" though. I very much prefer Nudnik.

Spike> Lovely trailer. It seems it will be a cute ep...

Coyote- Dude, first and foremost, you should NOT be appologizing for what you said in here. It was heartfelt, honest, and you needed to say it. We're you friends and moral support here, and if you ever appologize for saying what you feel again, especially about someone you really care about like Ravyn, I'm gonna have to steal my dad's car, drive up there, and hurt you. Remember dude, this place IS like the Cheers bar after all, just without the liquor.

Graeme's pronunciation_ So lets see... We have Graham, Grah-Mey, Nashville, Grame (Like flame), Gray-M, Grai-May... And I probably missed a couple. Gee, wonder which one is right?

Demona May's artwork- Perhaps NOW its understandable as to why I want to wait to put my stories up for when she's done all the art for them...

Republicans/Democrats- My dad has a t-shirt from the '88 election. On it is a picture of a cowboy with two smoking guns. Behind him are a bullet riddled donkey and Elephant, the cowboy calmly saying "That's mah vote."

Mary- Being a fellow 16 year old writer, let me offer this piece of advice. Expect your work to genius quality. If you don't expect it to be the very best, it won't be. But if you do, there's a possibility it may come out genius quality. Ya never know. In my case, its a moot point since I'm editing the entire saga I have to make it flow together while awaiting the artwork... When my stuff goes up, it'll be in such huge quantity it'll have to be genius, whatever anybody says. Heh heh heh.

Gooch- get NBC to do a report on good websites? Possibility, except 1) It wouldn't get ratings so they wouldn't do it, and 2)If this place was spotlighted, great example that it is, suddenly there would be hundreds, maybe thousands of people suddenly coming here and... Hmm...

**ADVENTURES OF JIM IZA NOYING-The Robot: Conclusion!**

Jim looks up from his comic book, and faces the robot. "So, you're going to kill me, is that it?"
"Yes."
"And there is nothing I can say to change your mind?"
"No, I am programmed to come here and kill you. That is my only objective."
"Really?" Jim gives a weak smile, and runs out of his yellow sub, and jumps into a nearby spot of water, hoping the robot can not follow. The robot can, switches on some underwater propolsion, and soon catches Jim. He then proceeds to take the rich boy out of the water, and points a laser at his head.
"Ya know, you could have just drowned me. Would have been done already."
"Dang, I knew I screwed up. Ah well." The small robot points one of his drilled fists at Jim, and powers up his laser. "Prepare to DIE Jim Isa Noying!"
"Woah, what did you call me?"
"Jim Isa Noying. It's my mission to kill you."
"Um, I'm Jim IZA Noying."
"Aw shoot, I nearly killed the wrong guy. Again!" The robot turns away, and sulks off into the distance, his little gears turning and taking him far, far away from Jim.
"That was... Interesting... And rather anti-climactic. Ah well." Jim shrugs, and the camera fades out.
THE END... But I'm sure I'll have more later.

[On the Avatar of Ganon, Wilek recieves a call from one of the ships he sent out: "We've found where the enemy ships docked...but it looks like little more than a big hangar; it can't possibly be a main command base. There are several similar sites nearby; we think they were part of Area 51 before we disintegrated it." Wilek: "Alright...Begin the next phase, except assimilate the base instead of destroying it. I want to know exactly where Thailog's hiding. Avatar out."]

**PAUSE RP!**

JEB> <<have you played the new Castlevania for the N64? That's a kewl game>> That, friend, is a massive understatement. It RULES! :D Especially the music for the title screen and the first Dracula battle. <<Thaddeus Klang? I can't say I remember him>> He was a cobra with black robes, a black hat, a metal jaw, and cybermechanical arms, who was voiced by SJ's dad and was looking for some kind of superweapon in the lost city of Tinnabula.

Kyryn> DANG. How weird can one life possibly get?! Oh, and Don Karnage is a fox, not a wolf. (I'm not speaking figuratively; he's actually an anthropomorphic fox.) :)

Bronx Wyvern> Good luck finding that Bronx toy! Hey, where'd you see it anyhow?

Fanlight> Welcome! And check your sanity with Deuce; he's the keeper of such things. (BTW Deuce, why exactly do you archive ppl's sanity? What possible use is it? Can it be used to run a computer or something, like a processor?)

Coyote> <<I do hereby sincerely apologize>> No problem; I think I'd be fairly dramatic myself. Hm, the Rokkans have no actual homeworld? I wonder...Is it possible that Nokkar's ppl drove them off of it, and may not necessarily be the good side of the conflict?

Mary> Ack, my condolences on your rotten day. On days like that, I'd be tempted to just start roaring inarticulately and throwing ppl out windows.

SOROW> Good luck with your upgrade! I know from experience that upgrading your computer can destabilize it; that's why I got a new one. Hope yours turns out well!

Celano> Oh, I do love giving RP information to places that demand my personal info. In fact, I've set up a Yahoo mail account that I rarely check, just to give to services that require it whose security I find questionable. Haven't used it much, but I like knowing it's there. And...can I help you destroy professional wrestling? Please? :)

Steve Gooch> <<Might I ask which emulator you use?>> ZSNES v0.800, which supports SuperFX and SA-1, I believe. $<<Marauder corvettes, eh? Been reading the Han Solo Adventures/sourcebook?>> Nope, the Essential Guide To Vehicles And Vessels. EXCELLENT book for tech freaks like me. ^_^$

**RESUME RP!**

[At the secret base, Thailog recieves a communication from Area 51. A frantic lieutenant appears on screen; the sounds of something screeching and pounding on the door behind him are heard. Thailog: "What's going on over there?!" Lieutenant: "I'm not sure. All of a sudden, a bunch of *things* decloaked all over the base...Raptors, sir. Borg velociraptors." Thailog: "What...?" Lt.: "Wilek Fieger I and the rest of our clones escaped unharmed, but these Borg have been assimilating the rest of our crew members left and right; half the base is now little more than a Borg construct. They've hit just about everything; they've even assimilated most of the Metal Gear 5000s--Oh, shoot!" One of the Borg raptors breaks down the door and hits the lieutenant with a dart of some kind; his skin becomes pale and begins sprouting Borg implants just before the commlink cuts off. Thailog gives up communicating verbally, instead roaring and smashing his desk.

Hey all,

Ravyn > If you're reading this, then that's great. However I'm also writing this to everybody in the room. I feel the same as everyone else, that you're getting a raw deal and I feel terrible for you. But I noticed in reading your post that the most 'oft repeated word is "hope." That's what you, and I, and everybody in here needs right now, in this case, in this world. Hope that, as Deuce said, things will get better after they get worse. Hope that your parents will see things more your way. Hope that people will learn that, *IF* (way big "IF") the internet is the bastion of chaos the media sometimes makes it out to be, there are still some places where you can go and be safe and appreciated. Hope that there will be a place that, like in Cheers, "everybody knows your name." Hope that you will someday return to us. We'll be waiting.

[Grim face] I hate writing things like that. Dammit, we need NBC news to do a week's worth of coverage on "Internet Sites that Are Beneficial to Your Children and Won't Harm Them." And I hope that this CR will be one of them :) There's too much negativity in this respect that's frightening parents into believeing that the internet is a dangerous place - when in fact it's not, as long as you have some modicum of common sense.

Lexy > Anytime :)

Fleur > <They caught that SOB? WHOO-HOO!!!> You REMEMBERED!! Thank you!

Wilek > Might I ask which emulator you use? Mine is Zsnes, which doesn't accept chip-enhanced games. Thx.

$Marauder corvettes, eh? Been reading the Han Solo Adventures/sourcebook?$

Traveler > Yes, the Sovs detonated a gigantic thermonuclear device in the 60s - completely in violation of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty that they themselves had called for. I'm not completely sure of yield, I'll have to look it up. But they set it off at one of their test facilities on Novaya Zemlya, a big island between the Barents and Kara Seas. (Hell, I only say this because I think "Novaya Zemlya" is one of the coolest-sounding phrases in the Russian language. Anybody know what it means?)

Ordell > Still looking for the SW1 trailer? I can hook ya up if you want it.

Coyote > You have absolutely nothing to apologize for, friend. What you call "navel-gazing" we call letting your true feelings out, and there is *nothing* the matter with that. Believe me, while you may not want everyone here to go through your pain, we don't think of it that way. We're here for you, man, the same way we're here for everybody. Consider us an ethereal shoulder to lean on. People come in here to rant about problems or celebrate good things, there's no reason why you or anybody else can't share your pain with us. You didn't *force* anyone to listen to you, we did it because we care, and because I care I won't let you apologize for it. Chin up, pal. Things will get better. And once they do we'll be here to share the joy just like we're here to absorb the sorrow.

Demona Taina > <Everytime they hurt someone the blood was shown. Something that Disney NEVER showed.> Yeah, Disney really went against their "standards" with Gargoyles (thank goodness). I still don't like what they did to "Vows," however - editing out the blood that Xanatos draws from Goliath when he kicks him in the mouth.

<-----I think I'll pick my mommmy today. I'm getting sick of my sister. She's such a goody-two-shoes! I guess she gets that from Dad. ;)

AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God!!!!! I had such a crappy week!!! I say all my teacher can simply go to Hell and let Satan perform mass torture on them!!!!!! With smurfs!!!!!! *takes deep breath and collects herself*
OK, now I feel better. I just had a bad week and yesterday I couldn't take it anymore and I started to cry in English class. I've been getting back assignments that I worked hard on that are all done WRONG and I have to do them over again for a third time. I couldn't get my geometry teacher's signiture for my schedule planning for next year or have him fix a missmarked absence because he threw his back out and was gone for three days, I have a science project due at the end of the month, I made a poster about a Web of life of a vernal pool I visited on a feild trip only she didn't want a poster size she wanted a ordenary piece of paper size so I looked like an idiot with a large poster with me, and then when I got home I had to go spread mulch around my backyard. All in all, Life has been giving me shit.
But on a lighter note I earned 25$ and spent it on a pixie necklace, and various yummy-smelly bath stuff and body mist and a magazine.

Travler>Yes! Perfect! I love the idea! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! Torture all evil souls in Hell!!!!!!

OK, I have been told by some people that they've read my story and like it. They say it's not up there with Christi Smith Hayden or Christine Morgen but they still like it and are dying to read more. This makes me feel soooooooooo much better. I'm only 16 and am not expecting to be a genius(sp?) on the first story. Or the second or seventh. But as long as they want more I'm glad.

****WARNING: RP COMIN' UP, AND LOOK, IT'S WEARING A WINTER PARKA!!!!*****

Thailog and the rest of the villains are all discussing their plans amongst themselves....all except the Phalanx commander, who for lack of a better name, we'll call Phalanx Prime. He has interfaced with the Collective; their race has the unique ability to communicate with one another without the use of common communications equipment. <<I want you to send one of our War Planets. Find wherever the former Dark Star crew has relocated, then engage them in battle. But most importantly--bring me back Dr. Anton Sevarius. We have certain.....plans for him.>>
****PAUSE RP:*******

First off everybody, a bit of a narcisstic plug. Demona May was kind enough to send me a couple of pics she had done that, in my opinion, fit my two fanfics perfectly. Click on my name to see how well they work. She's a GREAT artist, but then again, most of you already know that!

Wilek: Actually, I'm quite familiar with the Temple of Darkness Ascending....

Cute Girls: I know the whole "cute girls" debate was done and over with weeks ago, but I just gotta add my two cents, cause I never did. I'm sitting here watching the USA network's Saturday night shows......All the women are good-looking. Especially Brooke Langton on "The Net" and Peta Wilson on "La Femme Nikita". She can assassinate me anyday! ;)

Graeme: Actually, I pronounce it "Graham", as in "Gray" and "Em". The H is fairly silent.

****BATMAN BEYOND SPOILERS*****
Pretty good episode. Good to see a new one after they played the first episode.....again. For like the fifth time. Anyway, Shriek makes an interesting villain, but doesn't he look like those old from Batman: TAS? You know, the ones that that one guy had...the guy who kidnapped Mr. Freeze.....the design looks familiar.
Plus there was that funny bit at the end.
Bruce: "I knew I wasn't crazy. The voices in my head always called me Bruce. That's not what I call myself in my mind."
Terry: "Oh yeah? What do you call yourself?"
Knowing glance from Bruce.
Terry: "Ah. You would call yourself that, wouldn't you?"
*****END BATMAN BEYOND SPOILERS******

Al Gore: Moron of the week award goes to him. He claims HE invented the Internet. Does it scare anyone else that this guy may become our next president? Personally, I think that the entire upcoming election field needs to be cleaned out......perhaps with explosives......hmm, Mr. Bigglesworth runs unopposed for President. I like it!

Traveler: You're Republican? That figures. All the real badasses are Republican. Ahnuld is a Republican, Bruce Willis is....who's a Democrat? Skinny ol' Tom Hanks. No matter what war film he's in, no way I could buy him killing anybody....
But it makes sense. After all, aren't Republicans supposed to be the "evil" party?

Doug and Kitiana: <<"We stayed up last night celebrating Spring Break in our own way...">> Oh Jesus....Thank you soooooo much, now I got that little movie running through my head......;-P
[BTW, don't get spastic, this was a joke!]

Ebay: You know what's fun about this? Logging online and jacking up the prices with false bids. Yeah, it's cruel. But c'mon, I've seen plenty of morons bidding 100 bucks for a stupid beanie baby, so I have no sympathy. Next time you see a Furby going for $2,000, you'll know I struck again! ;)

Fae: Well, I'm gonna have to agree with Traveler on this one. I know it's not right to judge a specific group of people based on the few rotten apples of the bunch....but c'mon, there are a LOT of fae who are, essentially, @$$holes. From the "I'm-so-much-better-than-you-cause-I-speak-proper-English" royalty, to the trickster fae like Raven, they're mostly jerks. They only care about themselves. So a few of them have taken a shine to the "lesser" races. In terms of family relations, the fae would be that snotty, snobby aunt & uncle (i.e. Oberon and Maddoc, Titiana and Maeve), and they're bratty children (i.e. Loki, Raven, Banshee, etc.) who no one really wants to spend any time with at Christmas but your parents force you too. Down with our fae oppressors! Up with humanity! ARRIBA LA RAZA!!!!
Sorry if I have offended any of the fae population (or half-fae, or fae-loving) of the room.

Ravyn - I know you might not see this, but at least it will be in the archive when you do eventually return (of that I am certain above all else)... I didn't speak with you that often, but I consider you a good friend, and this Missouri Mule will sorely miss you. And personally, I hope you do eventually get to meet Coyote someday. He's a good kid (and I say that will all respect due), and the two of you deserve all the happiness you can get in this world.

Coyote - Well, I wasn't expecting that kind of a closure for the RP, but I am honored for the kind words. Keep your chin up, Don! Things always work out for the best in the end.

Welcome to the room to everyone I missed.

And, to close out tonight...

***** THE REAL CLOSER TO THIS PART RP *****

Sometime later, after a short hop back to the garage, Big Jake and Kerri are saying farewell to Coyote and Ravyn; who are about to ride off on one of Kerri's spare hoverbikes.

"Thanks for pulling us out of there, Jake," Coyote says, shaking the tall man's hand.

"Hey, forget about it!" Jake growls good-naturedly. "Are the two of you going to be alright?"

"Sure, but are you gonna be okay? I mean, it's one thing getting us out of there, but are you sure you want to take our place in the fight?"

"Hey, we've been in worse scrapes before!" Kerri replies with a grin.

"Besides, from what I hear, Thailog has got to be stopped," Jake adds, "and if your friends are as cagey as you've told me, they might not mind a little extra help."

Nodding, the couple turns and saddles up on the 'bike, taking a moment to make sure Ravyn is secure before revving the engine. Coyote then turns to Jake and slaps him on the shoulder.

"Take care of yourself, Jake! Hope you make it through the storm that's coming," he says, his voice choked with emotion.

"Same at you, Dog-Boy," Jake replies. "You take care of each other, y'here?"

"We will," Ravyn replies, hugging Coyote around the waist.

"See you!" Coyote adds, just as he turns the 'bike away and guns the engine, heading off into the moon-lit desert.

Watching the two people riding off into the night, Kerri turns to face Jake. "You sure we want to do this?"

"I owe him big-time, sis," Jake replied. Turning back to face their VTOL jet - Big Bird - he adds, "Come on. Time to light a fire under this thing..."

Hi again.

Just because Im a stickler for anniversaries, this day last year I left the TGS and struck off on my own (whereupon Iwent immediately into literary oblivion). Hope all you people at TGS are doing well, and I hope your projects are also doing well.

And now, for something meaningful to say...

***SPOILERS AHEAD***

The Longest Day -Part 1> I thought it was an okay episode, made better by the central idea and its length. It had good action and character development, and was well-written. And I did like many of the jokes in there.

I did feel, though, that the structure of the story left an unsatisfying taste in my mouth. Theres no series of story threads that run through the whole story. Its more like several short stories coming a couple at a time and connected with Scotch Tape to make a long story. What it says to me is that the planners started out with an idea that wasnt strong enough to be carried by itself through two episodes, so they simply added a number of events until the story reached the right length (not in absolute numbers of pages, but in terms of the amount of events in the story). It would have been handled much better if there were only one or two story arcs in this episode that were all introduced at the beginning, and then used as the primary source of events throughout the episode (the one thread that this here, that of Broadway getting bitten by Rita, and Angelas attempts to cure him, is sort of buried by the other plot threads).

So, overall, while I think this was a good story, it lacks the proper direction and cohesiveness to be truly great.

Brothers in Arms> How would I rate this one? The storyline is one I thought rather pleasant and well executed, more cerebral than the episodes of TD so far. The writing style could have used some work, but not much more than that. The three soldiers rather grew on me as well. So I actually liked the episode quite a bit.

The only complaint, in fact, that I have with the story (aside from it needing a little more stylistic polishing, and its extremely brief length) is that the three seem to be clones of the Trio (Henry/Brooklyn, William/Broadway, and Simon/Lexington). Im sorry, but that facet of the soldiers should have played a much more important role in the story, as far as how Brooklyn reacted to them (that is, if the resemblance was intentional; if not, well, I actually expect a lot more of the TGS staff than cheap character clones...).

***SPOILERS OVER***

Well, its getting late, and I ought to be moving on. See you all later!

P.S. I always pronounced Graeme as Grai-May myself.

"Lucy?" Caspians voice echoed in the hallway before he popped into the room. "Oh, there you are. Your boyfriend the digestive biscuit is beeping you on the computer again."

"He is NOT my boyfriend," Lucy said as she hopped off the couch. She scowled up at her big brother. "And dont make fun of him. Graeme is a perfectly lovely name."
------"Night of the Weird"

*laughs* Apparently, Caspian (and by coincidence, so do I) pronounces Graeme the same as graham as in graham cracker. I've always been rotten at pronouncing things.

Hi, it's been a while, huh?

***BEFORE I FORGET***
Well, i guess that my IRL sister started the same way that I did, thinking that this was a chatroom. Please, forgive her for posting a couple of times, she didn't know. But, don't worry, I explained her what was a comment room, and she will behave. That is, if I let her post again...

Anyway, I went to sleep, and when I woke up, I saw that my sister was in MY computer and in the comment room. I groaned when I saw that she had posted a couple of times. I, of course, gave her the lecture... hehe... she won't do it again. So, please forgive her, she is kind of new to the net.
***END BEFORE I FORGET***

So, I have BIG news!!! [grins] I saw TGC!!! TGC!!!!!!!! [does a littlen dance] AT LAST!!! After two years of waiting for TGC, I finally saw it!!!! I must admit, it wasn't as good as I thought. But, it wasn't at all bad... just a little good...

Anyway, I LOVE the theme!!! It's so cool!!! [hums TGC's theme] Man, it's even better than the theme of the first two seasons, don't you think? The theme was computer animated, and it had pieces of screenshots around. Cool! I could watch it many times over! I bursted out laughing when I saw the pigeons. Hehe...

The magic is gone, the characters have changed, even Goliath has changed! I mean, come on! Goliath blaming himself because Lexington disapeared!?! Hudson being reckless?!? Goliath giving Brooklyn the lecture!?! Broadway kissing Angela!?! Bronx eating sausages!?! Goliath not kissing Elisa!?! [stops to think] Hmm... on second thought... [grins] Kiss me instead!!!

What surprised me was the blood. Everytime they hurt someone the blood was shown. Something that Disney NEVER showed. And Goliath being hit with four sedants!?! Isn't one enough??? Ouch... I can just remember when Castaway shot Goliath in his chest... [cringes] Man... that must have hurt... [concerned] Oh, you poor baby!!! [runs over to Goliath, looks at the wound] Can I touch it? [touches it, Goliath roars REALLY loud] Ooops... bye-bye... [runs like hell]

I guess that I'm not being funny today, maybe I'm tired. Tomorrow, I may come full of jokes. I'll be armed with funny scenes even in my teeth! NO ONE CAN STOP ME FROM BEING FUNNY!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN JIM CARREY!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN FULL HOUSE!!! NOT EVEN THE SIMPSONS!!!

[laughs maniacally, runs around the room spinning, jumping, cackling, covering everyone with silly string] Hehe... got funny? [clicks the submit button]

Quickie post while the phone's not in demand.

Ordell, Deuce> <<I doubt that was the season finale last night.>> I checked out the SG-1.net site, and apparently "Out Of Time" was the season finale. Hey, "Within the Serpent's Grasp" aired at around the same time last year, and it left us hanging too. BTW, if either of you saw
"1969", could you tell me whether or not it aired the week before this? Mom says she taped it, but I can't find it anywhere on all the unlabeled tapes here. Deuce--if you really want to know what happened, e-mail me and I'll send you a synopsis of the ep. I don't think SG-1.net is caught up on synopses yet.

Fanfic characters' worst nightmares:
Callista--She's hanging off the side of the Empire State building and stuck with her mother the entire time.
Drew--A relapse. Enough said.
Sarah--All forms of caffeine vanish from the face of the earth.
Handsaw--The Quarrymen find out just who's been tipping the police off and come after him.
Sam--When she learns what it means for her, being dragged to Avalon.
Madison--Probably something involving Demona, but I haven't gotten there yet.

Coyote> You have my sympathies too, since that's all I can really give. I'm thinking about you both, and hoping that everything works out. Good luck to both of you. *sigh*

Todd> Can you check with whoever's running the TGS mail list that my school account's been taken off this week? The server isn't going to handle the unread volume of mail well--I know that firsthand.

Phone check time....til later!

*sigh* Yes, I'm still here, and now I have two days' worth of posts to catch up on ...

As an aside, I do hereby sincerely apologize for my navel-gazing last night. Though I felt completely miserable about Ravyn's situation, especially in how I thought I might have created it, I shouldn't have forced this room to go through my pain with me.

Stephen: $Thanks for wrapping up our end of the RP ... you couldn't have known what was going to happen, but it sure was convenient. And I liked it, myself I thought it was an excellent way to end it.$

Pronunciaton of Graeme's name: I pronounce it "graym," as I believe it is suppose to be pronounced in the original Gaelic it is derived from.

Parental paranoia: In some cases it is justified. In this one, it is not. That's all I have to say about the matter.

SJ, JEB, Traveler, Wilek, Deuce: Thanks for your support, guys, I really appreciate it. **weak smile** I'll try not to hurt as much, I promise.

Jewel: Don't take offense at this, please. But someone should talk to you about your timing. **sigh**

Doug, re "Liberty or Death": Thanks for the comments. As far as what happened to Samson ... you'll see in the next one what he's been doing.
Oh, BTW, thank you once again for your support, both you and Kitainia.

Traveler: Okay, to answer your questions ...
1) The Rokkans are a race similar to the aliens in ID4. They move from planet to planet, conquer them, leave a small force to rule, then move on. As such, their entire civilization is constantly in motion, save for whoever they leave on conquered worlds. So yes, they *can* run out of reinforcements, and since they really don't have a homeworld anymore, they can't call for help from home anyway.
2) You along with everyone else will see what happens with Thorn in the next one ... let's just say that with Thorn, you can't assume *anything.*

Mandi: None taken. Who cooked marshmallows over the 386 I cooked in the chat room, huh? :)

Fanlight: Welcome to the room. Please forgive me for not being more cheerful.

One more thing before I leave for the night ...

**Coyote reaches into another of his extremely deep pockets, pulls out a tall candle and holder, and places it on the table at the center of the room. Produing a Zippo lighter, he lights the wick, placing a card at the base of the candle. Shortly before leaving he shoots looks at Dis and Kenny that scream "don't-screw-with-the-candle." Finally, he walks out the door. Everyone bends over to look at the card at the base, which reads:**

FANLIGHT - *sigh* This is a comment room, NOT a chat room.

TRAVELLER - Interesting comments on "The Longest Day Part One", but aren't you being rather bloodthirsty? Particularly since you can't blame all the fay for the actions of some of their members. Granted that the Unseelie Court and a lot of the Seelie Court members are pains, but how about the more pro-human ones such as Grandmother, Coyote, and Prometheus? I don't think that destroying the innocent alongside the guilty is a good idea. And judging all the fay by Oberon, the Weird Sisters, Madoc, Maeve, and Loki is rather like judging all humans by Castaway and Sevarius, or all gargoyles by Thailog and Coldsteel.

"It's Jafar Juinior!" -Iago, upon first meeting Mosenwrath, one of the three coolest Aladdin villains, the others two being Miraj and Jafar.

Traveler- Actually, that "We need to hunt" teaser for Sacred paths was in there. I didn't want to tip anything off, so I chose a quote that had very little to do with anything, and then cut it in half. Note that I used ... on both ends, indicating it was a partial quote. In context it doesn't have nearly as much impact as the four words used alone. I think the actual line may have been changed some in the final put up version as well. Whatever the case, I only do teasers for stories I work on. Of course, there is another TD story later this season... Expect some nasty teasing around then...

Bronx-Good luck!

Lexy- My guess is you wait until the next round of TGS staff sign up. Could be a while though.

Duece > I doubt that was the season finale last night. There was no lead way into it. It was mostley a flashback story, like "Politics" in the first season. If it follows the same pattern, there will be to more episodes in the season. Of course, if it is the end of the season, then it was a great way to end it.

SW1 trailer > For three days I've been trying to download this. Everytime something happens. When I do get it downloaded, I can here it, but there's NO FREAKIN' PICTURE. And, I refuse to pay $7.50 to get into a crappy movie just to see it. But I'll keep trying, and I'll be first in line out here in the desert, where we have 24 screen total, and their still showing The Waterboy on two screens. The sad part, people are still going to see it. I had to go to Austin to end up seeing 200 Cigarettes, which was worth it just to here Christina Ricci speak with that accent.

I apologize in advance for my crime. Please skip this post if you have no interest in my Xanatos cel.

The auction on my XANATOS CEL at ebay ends tomorrow, Sunday, at 4:50pm. If you are unfamiliar with how ebay works, I urge you to check it out today, or you will be unprepared for the auction's close tomorrow, when the bidding will heat up. Keep in mind that ebay veterans make their high bids last minute. If you are interested in the DEMONA CEL, it is NOT up for auction yet. Email me if you are interested, I will keep you informed about it. There is a reserve, but it is only as much as I, myself, paid for each cel. I am obligated to sell to the highest bidder, so if you miss the auction and try to make me an offer after, it won't work. Good luck!

**RP BEGINS HERE**

Shap hears the advancing footsteps and tries the office's one door, trying to break it down. "No luck!" he says. "This thing needs explosives! Where's Jammer when we need him?" "Back at the hotel upgrading the truck," Boris calmly answers, aiming his bazooka at the door. "Stand back." Shap and everyone else does so and Boris fires, knocking the door down and on top of the first rank of advancing security guards. "There they are!" one shouts as the guards see the office. "And they killed the boss!! Get 'em!!" The guards and the good guys get into a huge gunfight, the Ravens diving for cover behind the office furniture as the guards shoot at them. From his sniper post behind Marsh's desk, Doug turns to make another CR post.

**PAUSE RP**

Just a quick bit, hopefully one that will encourage Traveler to post again soon. And make some replies, of course.

Coyote: You're welcome about the sympathies. As for Demolition, thanks for letting me use his power. The clan is going to be in trouble with it. BTW, I was thinking about the upgraded gang (they'll first be seen in "Goblins" and "Blind Date," they're not the friends of Jadriel he'll have in "Dragons' Wrath" or whatever I'll call it) and remembered that there's one member who's always playing loud rap on a boombox. Could I please give him Flea's sister's (forgot her name) powers? Just think it'd be appropriate for this noise polluter. Thanks if yes, will understand if no. Next topic.

Robby: It's okay. Sometimes I'm not very good at taking jokes when I hear them. I hope you're right about your words increasing interest instead of decreasing it. I still have yet to get any feedback on "Vengeance."

Dumlao: Hey, cool pic of you. Sorry I didn't notice it earlier. The first is still my favorite, but this one makes you look real nice, too. :)

Wilek: $ There are in fact four different sites for Area 51, you just destroyed the first. Area 51-A is a whole different installation (please let Kitainia and I handle it, we have some plans). So the bad guys still have Site 2, 3, and 4. Feel free to destroy any of them if you like. But watch out, I hear 4 will soon be infested with dangerous alien life forms (other plans Kit and I will soon enact. Muahahaha!!) $

Traveler: Good to see you back, thanks for the great posting. So you're a Republican, eh? We'd never have guessed! Also, good return to the RP. I wonder what you have planned for your character the next time we see you. :) Oh, don't forget. You still owe me feedback on "The Blackout," "End to the Rage," and "Brooklyn at Camelot." And that's just the ones you said you would send me feedback on. Until I get it, I will keep pestering you. <grin> I really enjoy reading and responding to your long critiques of my fics.

Okay, that's all for now. Kit and I have to get ready for our triple feature outing. We overslept this morning because of how late we stayed up last night celebrating Spring Break in our own way <grin>, so now we have even less time to get to the theater and watch the flicks. Will review them when we get back. Later!

**RP AGAIN**

Doug takes out the security man who spoke, then fires again, trying to get the rest. In the process he notices a button on the underside of Marsh's desk that says "in case of dire emergency- push me." He wonders if he should do so, then shrugs and does. Instantly the bookcase in the back of the room slides open, revealing an escape stairway to the roof. A huge robot that kinda resembles Victor from the DarkStalkers games stands in the doorway. It raises its arm cannons and begins shooting at the security guards. The guards dive aside, amazed one of Marsh's ultimate security toys is attacking THEM. The Ravens take the opportunity to dash up the stairway. "Let's get that Traveler guy," Shauna says as they rush for the door at the stairway's top. Behind the door, Traveler can still be heard laughing. So can the sound of a helicopter engine starting up. The screen fades out, to be continued.

**END THIS BIT OF RP**

Hey all, just a quick note just for the sake of putting something up... I'm going out to all the toy stores today in seacrh of a Bronx stuff animal that actually growls. I saw a pic of it so at least I know what I'm looking for! It's so damn hard to find Garg toys...and this isn't something that comes by often so wish me luck everyone, I'm bound to find it!
Bai Bai!

Coyote> *big hug* I don't think there's anything I can say to make you feel better, but I'm here for ya.

Graeme> I pronounce it "GrAY-m". Actually, I never say it out loud, but that's how I think it.

Jewel> ["I said once before I am the Great Anti-ROmantic."] Yeah, now watch you meet some guy and do a 180-degree spin on that POV. Love's funny that way.

Traveler> ["...as you can probally already tell from the preceiding RP post which is longer than some stories in the FanFic archive..."] Longer than mine. :-)

Mandi> SG-1 SEASON FINALE?!?!?!?!?! WHAT?!?!?! WE'VE BEEN GETTING RERUNS SINCE CHRISTMAS!!!! That's it: I'm breaking my vow and reading the synopsi of the episodes at SG-1.net. Grrr....

Well, that's all for now, folks. See y'all on Monday!

**A hologram of RL Mandi slowly fades in. When it finally comes up, we see Mandi sitting at her Mom's 486, pounding on the monitor. She looks up, realizes she's in, and speaks.**

Yeesh. No offense, Coyote, but after my comp at school with a Pentium processor and a network connection, this sucker is SLOW! Since the room is so full, I really haven't scanned the posts this time. It takes too long on this machine.

Rayvn> Oh, no! It's probably too late for you to read this, but that's awful! I hope everything clears up soon.

Update on the root canal> That does it, I'm changing dentists. I went to the specialist today, and guess what the problem is? My one filling ever has had a crack in it, which means the nerve beneath is dead and decay was forming. I pestered my regular dentist about this a year ago when this tooth was bothering me, and he said he didn't see anything! Arrgh!! Anyway, the specialist knew what the heck he was doing; he did the first half--cleaning the sucker out and putting a temp filling in there for when I get the actual work done at the end of the week. It's not even bothering me this morning, but Mom and I have both decided to change dentists now.

Just saw the Stargate: SG-1 season finale last night. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it, but this cliffhanger is even WORSE than last year's! How could they leave us hanging when (censored) showed up and threatened (censored) with (censored)?? (Hey, I said I wasn't going to spoil it.)

Fanfic stuff> Just a note that my fics are going to be slowed. I wrote and posted my first finished Buffy fic--a short crossover with another show that I won't divulge or I'll get shot--and now I've actually gotten a LOT of sequel requests. So now I have a couple of creativity demons in the form of Faith and Buffy tormenting me.

A last request before I hit Submit and pray this posts. Anyone who's going to G99 and planning to leave from the BWI airport, please mail me ASAP! Mom is still sticking to the ultimatum that I catch a flight with someone I met last year at G98! (If I know you online, I'll fib and say I met you at the con.) I've got to admit, I'm excited about the con this year, but I miss last year's ride board big time...

Anyway, must be going. Dave's picking me up to go see Wing Commander, and I haven't even made my bed or found my shoes yet. And yes, I've finally stopped linking Bob Kiwi until I get an answer from Jen about its progress. :)

**The hologram begins another slow fadeout. Mandi gets impatient, pounding on the monitor. "Come ON already! Come on!" There is a sudden sizzle-pop, and the image blips out. The audio is still working.**

Oops.

Traveler: <g> Yup. It's on a tee-shirt. We have lots of fun tee-shirts here at Bryn Mawr. My personal favorite (but I didn't get it at the time they were selling it, because I was a stupid-head) was "Ain't no bitch like a Bryn Mawr bitch." (*Long* story as to how that one came into being...Let's just say it involves Hell Week, Pem East Whore Corps, and Cam the Head of Dining Services/Pimp Daddy.)

Fire Storm; Yup. That was the one. I was watching it on MTV and just cringed.

HI all
Wing Commander> one word sucks! Sorry plot holes big enough to drive a star destroyer through as well as some bad acting made this movie flop. S E was ok, with some really nice dogfights, but I can watch B5 for that. I enjoyed watching my friend play the game more than that movie. Good news Star Wars Trailer rocked !!!!!!

Parents> Look at what the media is feeding parents yall. According to the news the net is full of ax welding cannibal maniacs just waiting to lure their children into there dens of despair. While it is not as bad as the news makes it; it dose happen! Heck Dee Snider is doing a movie just on that line. Thats the problem with the info age you can get info or personal with out meeting. I mean I could be an ax welding cannibal maniac or a twelve year old girl. How do you Tell. So dont be to hard on parents over acting. The best thing to do though is talk to your parents/child. Oh great now we are going to see more talk to you children commercials, Gads I just posted one AAAHHHHHHHH

King Kong not Godzilla swatted down planes. My Gargoyles Nightmare has already happened in Longest day part 1. I don't wanna do a spoiler but I do hope the host meant the front row not the two in the back in of the Audotorium who were NOT doing that.

****REALLY TWISTED TIME TRAVEL RP BEGINS HERE. ALSO KNOWN AS: TRAVELER AND JADEN'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE.>:]****

TIME: 2:00am somewhere in the 1960's (I think, don't shoot me if I got decade wrong.)

*a blinding flash of light is seen for a split second before disapering, and leaving in it's place a smoking DMC. The doors open and Traveler and the werewolf Jaden get out.* Traveler: Well Jaden, we're here. Jaden*looks around*: Traveler...just were and when is "here"? It looks like a construction site in the middle of nowhere....Although that mountion looks familiar... Traveler: It should my hairy friend, you see this the construction site for what will become NORAD. Now would you mind giving me a hand with these? *reaches into the back seat and removes two cyclindrical objects, each about the size of an overgrown golf bag.* Jaden: Sure. If you tell me what we're doing here. *they each take one and begin the long walk into the mountian.* Traveler: Well, all right. We're leaving a "little" present or two, for Thailog's forces once they take control fo NORAD in....well...from our point of reference, the future. Jaden: What?! Thailogs going to take over NORAD!!! Wait a minute...how do YOU know about this? Traveler: Let's just say I have an unwitting inside source on the matter. *hehehehehee* Ah...helping design the original Borg, and as a result leaving a few "choice" commands hard wired into their collective and drones... but enough about that. Jaden: I'm going to try and forget for the moment that you basicly just admited to creating one of the most destructive, evil forces in the universe....and ask you about these surprises, namely....what's in the cases? Traveler: Oh, I never said I creatd them, just...gave the origional R&D a little...help.>:) As for what's in the cases, well I can't just go and ruin the whole surprise now can I? But I tell ya what. Pick one case and I'll tell you what's in it. Jaden: Well, *thinks for a moment deciding* how about mine. Traveler: Ok, but you're going to have to put it down first. Jaden*put it down*: Ok but why? Traveler: Becauseyou'recarringtheonewiththethermial-nuclearwarheadinitandIdidn'twantyoutodropitoutofshockwhenItoldyou. That's why. *Jaden tries to decipher the blur of what Traveler said; he does, then promptly almost faints.* Jaden: You mean I've been luging armaggedden in a box over my shoulder?! Traveler: Yep, and don't complain to me about it, that's the one you picked up back at the car. Now let's finish up here. We've got some more stuff to do before we go "BACK...TO THE FUTURE!!!". [They finaly arrive to the location deep inside the mountian.] Traveler: Ok, now just put them right here, standing up in this depression in the wall. Jaden: But won't somebody see them and have them removed? Traveler: All ready have that taken care of. Just stamp them "TOP SECRET" and even the generals will stay away from them. Anything you want to write on the bomb? *Jaden writes "TO: Thailog FROM: Jaden + Traveler ENJOY!!!" on the side of the nuke. Traveler sniggers, then writes "DO NOT OPEN UNTIL MARCH 1999>:)" on the side of the other package, then presses some commands into a hidden key pad on the thing.* Jaden: Tell me, just what is that thing? Traveler: Can't, that would ruin the surprise. Besides we gota go. *opens a portal and they both step through...appearing a moment later beside the DMC.* Jaden hey wait a minute... why did we drag those to cases all the way in there when you could have just opend one of your portals? Traveler: Well, I wanted to strech my legs abit, and some types of nukes and ustable energy vortexes don't mix very well...heh,heh...found that one out the hard way...my armor was glowing green like a nite-lite for weeks.

****END OF THE BEGINNING OFF THE INSANELY TWISTED TIME TRAVEL RP.****

Well, as you can probally already tell from the preceiding RP post which is longer than some stories in the FanFic archive.....TRAVELER'S BACK!!!!!! WWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Sorry I haven't posted lately, but things have been, and continue to be busy at my end. I have been checking the room regulary, I just haven't had the time for a "regular length post", so I do know generaly what's going on. AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE SHOW!!!

*****A five asterix salute and a few lines of silence for the master, Stanley Kubrick.*****

>Stanley Kubrick- How I feel about this: +()#&$R)*(@#^R*(#%$JNFD@#%&*!$#&*@&*##FOIR(&*^YQWEUIJR()*@$U_()#%HE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *composes himself* The master is dead. In honor of his memory and all that he has given and left us, I will BURN ALL THAT IS HOLLYWOOD TO THE GROUND!!!!! DO YOU HEAR ME???!!!! IT SHALL BE HIS FUNERAL PYRE!!!!! I WILL LEAVE BEHIND NOTHING BUT DIEING EMBERS AND THE SMOLDERING REMAINS OF STUDIO EXECUTIVES!!!!!!!!

>DumlaoX- (Refering to the first picture you put up)- Kick ass shades man. BTW, welcome to the RP...*insert manical laughter here*

>Wing Commander- I'm going to see it anyway, but as for the Kilrathi....I've seen pictures on the internet....Does the phrase "giant shaved cat" mean anything to you?

>Ted Turner- He canceled SWAT KATS (the animation quality of the second season alone was reason enough to watch), and is responsible for the travisty known as "Captian Planet". *shivers from just having to type that name.* He shall be used as kindling.

****WARNING SEMI-DISCUSSION RANT****
>Humanity- Scientists agree, you're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't. So let's all get drunk and play ping pong. Seriously though, (well...the first part is serious, but this next part is a little more in-depth) we are the bast&#d children of creation. Not animal or divine (however you chose to classify that; as your soul/spirit/pure thought etc...). Constantly at war with ourselves and each other because we can't figure out where we belong or what we should do with ourselves. We have the power to alter the world around us, and we're literaly getting better at it every day through the accumilation(sp?) of knowledge. Knowledge seems to be the only thing that really lasts since our lives are so compareativaly(sp?) short, so it is this pursuit we have universally thrown ourselves into. Perhaps our reasoning for this is because we seek to find a purpose to/for our existance. Surely there must be more than THIS to life. To find some purpose, some cause to devote our time and posibbily lives to, so that they will have some meaning besides: you're born, getup go to school, getup go to work, you die. As for the "Sanctity of Life" ideas that were floating around with this debate I direct you to a few select quotes form comedian/social comentator George Carlin: "Life is sacred? Who said so? God? If you read history you realize that God is one of the leading causes of death! Has been for thousands of years!" "I mean, even if their were such a thing, I don't it's something you can blame on God. No, you know were the sanctity of life came from? We made it up. You know why? Cause we're alive! Self-interest, living people have a strong interest in promoting the idea that somehow life is sacred!" "Well let me ask you this: If everything that ever lived is dead, and everything that is alive is going to die, where does the sacred part come it?!!" "Misquitios and flys' 'cause their pests, Lions and tigers...because it's fun! Chickens and pigs...'cause we're hungry! Phesants and quails...because it's fun, and we're hungary!!! And people, we kill people...because their pests. And it's FUN!!! ... So at best, the sanctity of life is kind of a selective thing, we get to choose which forms of life are sacred and we get to kill the rest. Pretty neat deal... Ya know how we got it? We made the whole *&$#$@ thing up!!!". For more hilarious words of wisdom from the same CD I recommend George Carlin: Back in town. Green Barron: for the record I am a registered republican, but Carlin is just so da7m funny.

>Robby- <<COMING THIS THURSDAY ON TIMEDANCER...
"...We need to hunt..." [Robby Monday, March 1, 1999 12:59:02 AM]>> Ummm....Something tells me you were talking about a difrent episode...mind telling us which one? *hehehehee*

Odd note: As I write this I'm watching "Better Off Dead" on TBS's Dinner and a Movie. If you have'nt seen this in awhile, rent it for a good laugh.

>Steve Gooch- Actually I remember seeing test footage of a USSR built 200Megaton bomb (interesting side note: the bomb design was scaled down from 400megatons) that they blew it somewhere in the arctic circle...

>Mary Flanders- (Awhile back you mentioned an atrocity carried out by some local high school teens.
