What does it take to lure me into here? A discussion on eggses, eggses precious eggsssess.
I’m going to try to at least post once a week in here.
The names for the 2004 hurricane season: The first storm is named Alex. I’m pretty sure Owen made jokes ala Hurricane Alex was here when he cleaned up after him. And the third Hurrican…Charlie. Okay I hear too many people laughing in my head now.
Gargoyle eggs hardening to stone: I never thought they were permanently stone, and I never thought of them turning to stone on the inside. I originally thought they would harden to stone during the sunrise and revert to eggshell at sunset.
Weregoyle eggs: different gestation than gargoyle eggs. Six months within the womb and three months out in the air before hatching. I want to keep them different from gargoyles and humans. The shell is always shell day and night. If they hatch during the day when the hatchlings are in human from they have special egg claws to tear through the shell. The egg claws come off when the infants are cleaned up for the first time.
Bud-Claire<<<Towel Day again.>>>I always keep 42 for just in case.<<<"The shell is permanently stone like after the first day. The insides transform back and forth like gargs." I really don’t see how that could work.
Dezi<<<And I got a Scott McNeil, voice of Wolverine, Xmen Evolution, and Kouga, Inu Yasha, signed a Inu. poster for me!>>>You met Duo Maxwell! Yeah he was also the voice of Duo for GW and Piccolo in DBZ.<<<He even did this little skit thing doing like five characters from Beast Wars.>>>I can picture Jeff Benet doing the same.<<<I am now officially a photog intern at the local CBS affiliate,>>> Congrats<<<I also got to meet Rupert from Survivor. Creepy-ass dude, btw.>>>Reminds me of Hagrid
Tharos<<<Today was my last day of high school>>>Congrats on graduating.
Spike<<<Why bother hiding the eggs deep inside the castle keep?>>>I guess if they are stone they need protecting. If a mace can smash a statue it could smash a stone egg.
Brutis<<<what is the name of the other site the one yall are talking about i dont know of it>>>That would be the main site. http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/comment.php
Martin<<<I mean, if they turn to stone and back again, they would leave left-overs of their stone skin behind.>>>Unless the stone skin is very fine and instantly dissolves, becoming protein rich nutrients.<<<Stealing more and more of the free space>>>That could explain why those eggs are huge.
Firestorm<<<Maybe they are reabsorbed?>>> That would make a lot more sense.
Lynati>>>Well he was checking out her butt.
Patrick<<<When an egg is laid, the organism inside is just a small cluster of cells.>>>Another good point…although we don’t know how much they developed when the eggs are six month within the womb.<<<Can you imagine what she'd be like if every four weeks she had to lay an egg the size of a large watermelon?>>>and she is close to laying in my fic verse. I need to do a scene where she gets really snappy. Thank you.

<<Reptiles and amphibians will only lay eggs after mating>>
I think Iguanas lay dud eggs too. When I was researching Iguana care, I think there was mention that female Iguanas will lay unfertalized eggs.

Todd> <<genetically modify the gargoyles to have them lay eggs more often and in larger amounts>>: And remember to bump up the number of eggs that ripen at puberty unless you want all the females to hit menopause early.
Kathy> <<Duck eggs make great pound cake and lousy eggs over easy. Goose eggs make terrific quiche>>: Now we just have to figure out what hummingbird and ostrich eggs are good for and follow the curve up.
Fire Storm> <<Some like classic rock (kewl), some like rap (lame), some even like country <shiver>>>: Average it out to the middle, and you'll be happy.
<<we were kinda thinking of "Queen - You're my best friend," but you really can't dance to it, ya know?>>: Channel the ghost of Freddie Mercury and have him rearrange it.
<<Not a frelling clue>>: I'm somewhat disappointed that you didn't have anything to say about my implication that you thought of your mother as a sexpot.
<<Awww... It likes you! It's trying to hug you!>>: That is nice, but all the same, I don't know it well enough for it to be a french hug.
<<Oh please no>>: And yes, once again, I have created a new nightmare.
<<when ARE you coming up, and whereabouts?>>: Probably sometime after the yearbook is finished, and then we'll be heading off to a suburb of Chicago.
<<She would be a MAJOR downer>>: But doesn't every wedding have to have someone cry? Granted, it wouldn't be in that "I always cry at weddings" way, but you take what you can get.
<<which they TOTALLY took the wrong way>>: I guess you'll just have to win them over with your cooking skills. But a tip: find someone else be the main dish.
<<I can see the meringue, but not the mayo>>: It's mostly oil and egg, it's just not something you generally think of as eggy.
Patrick> <<Can you imagine what she'd be like if every four weeks she had to lay an egg the size of a large watermelon?>>: Well, at least she'd be non aerodynamic for a good bit of the month.
Patrick> <<which came first, the chicken or the egg?>>: Depends on how you define what kind of egg it is, by who laid it or what was in it.
Kathy> <<The shells are perfectly hard and normal>>: And you might have cracked a few open for breakfast.
<<Birds like turkeys have been bred to enormous size so that they nearly always have to be artificially inseminated>>: The males must be disappointed.
Brutis> <<there biological propeties would be slitly similar to ours in the fact that we cannot get pregnant without fertilization>>: But our females still flush out any prepared eggs (along with the beginnings of cushioning material) if they haven't been fertilized.

Yes, that's what I meant. I meant that human females produce unfertilized eggs as well, only THEIRS don't have hard shells 8) It's good to know someone can interpret my language.

So is it only certain birds, like chickens, that lay unfertilized eggs? Or can all birds do it?
Reptiles and amphibians will only lay eggs after mating. But gargoyles are a lot more mammalian than they are reptilian or amphibian. And with the right mixture of drugs and hormones... who's to say what could happen.

actually josh is right a chicken will lay eggs regardles but w/o the rooster for the male part, the eggs will remain eggs.
patrick>> actualy i dont think that a garg would lay an egg w/o (doing the do). i can imagin that there biological propeties would be slitly similar to ours in the fact that we cannot get pregnant without fertilization. so i dont think a "egg farm" would even be possible.
patrick>> that would be intresting to see in the grocery store.
grade A small, medium, large, exlarge
grade A gargoyle
and can you immagin the ammount of matrials it would take to make the foam/cardboard containers. (they think we have a trash prob now)

Thanks for clearing that up. I cracked an egg open once from a carton purchased at the supermarket, and there was an embryo in there. As I was throwing out the cake batter, someone in my family commented that it had probably happened because the farmer waited too long to collect the eggs. Hence my thinking all this time that chickens only lay fertilized eggs.
So connecting this back to that comment that was made earlier... if some scientist could devise a way to make female gargoyles lay eggs on a much more frequent timetable, and if the males were be kept away, then gargoyles could produce non-viable eggs for use as food just as chickens do.
Wow... what a weird storyline that could become. Especially when it comes time to figure out how to get the styrofoam container holding a dozen of 'em into a grocery bag. :P

Josh > What are you talking about? Yes, chickens and other birds lay eggs without the presence of a rooster. The shells are perfectly hard and normal. Occasionally, there is a soft or shell-less egg, but this is caused by either an injury to the hen or a shortage of calcium in the diet. The eggs won't be fertile unless there is a rooster present to fertilize them.
Birds like turkeys have been bred to enormous size so that they nearly always have to be artificially inseminated. Heritage breed turkeys ( the kinds that I raise) are small enough to breed naturally.

Patrick: Having worked on a ranch, I can assure you that hens will lay eggs without a rooster present (much like human females, though they do it without the hard shell - okay sorry for that image). I know this because I harvested eggs every morning, with no rooster present.
And the egg came first. Darwin says that while the creature that came from the egg matches our genetic definition of "chicken", the creature that laid the egg was ALMOST a chicken.

Fertility drugs for gargoyles to increase the frequency of egg-laying... sounds like a job for Anton Sevarius. Of course, Demona's pretty bad tempered as it is. Can you imagine what she'd be like if every four weeks she had to lay an egg the size of a large watermelon?
Kathy - I bet you can answer this. There something I've never been clear on regarding chicken eggs. Does a rooster need to be present for the female chickens to produce eggs? Are all chicken eggs able to grow into chickens if they are not "harvested," or will chickens lay unfertilized eggs?
And for that matter... which came first, the chicken or the egg? ;)

Gside: <Well, these should mainly be people that like you and that you like, and that should mean similar tastes in music, so it probably winds up meaning stuff that won't annoy you.>
Family. MANY different types of music. Some like classic rock (kewl), some like rap (lame), some even like country <shiver>
<Okay, so what do you associate with the Lady>
I dunno... we were talking about this and we were kinda thinking of "Queen - You're my best friend," but you really can't dance to it, ya know?
<what does she want for her dance with her father?>
Not a frelling clue.
<"Let me introduce you to my single friends, and these are their wives.">
I know... I was thinking of the guys at work and they are all either married or very close to it.
<It'd be too annoying plowing up all the iron lumps next year.>
But it would be fun finding charred bits of mice!
<And they seem to do very well on their own, too. They're always very friendly to all the new faces they meet.>
"Awww... It likes you! It's trying to hug you!"
<Do you have to have another wedding if you're late?>
Oh please no!
<Only if you get drunk and go to sleep first>
Hmm... let me check my notes...
So... when ARE you coming up, and whereabouts?
<She's the black sheep of the family?>
Na. They are habitual mourners. LM's grandmother was still mourning her daughters death (LM's mom) when LM's grandfather died (10 years after LM's mom). So she is most likely in a horrible state of mourning, and quite frankly, I am glad she isn't coming. She would be a MAJOR downer.
<They don't want to have any xenomorphs in the family?>
I know! I mean, what's not to like? Sure, sure, I am black shelled, I have children from a previous "relationship," and one of my children wanted a hug from LM's grandfather when they first met, which they TOTALLY took the wrong way
<It'd have to be as a delicacy, don't get a frequent enough clutch.>
Oh yeah. I'd say a few million per on the black market.
<And how about the merangue? Or just mayo.>
I can see the meringue, but not the mayo.
Todd: <Not a very practicable one, though>
Well, it would be viable if you raided a rookery during the daytime and grabbed one or two.
<but also you'll wind up dooming the species to extinction>
I was trying to figure out how damaging it would be to the species if an entire breeding season was lost (IE: Future Tense). I figured it would be a horrible loss, but the species COULD come back. I think that gargoyles are on their way to extinction anyway
<Of course, whoever's behind the scene could always genetically modify the gargoyles to have them lay eggs more often and in larger amounts>
I think they would have to do that species wide, actually. Changing it to every 5 years instead of every 20 would make a HUGE difference in the viability of the species.
Thought:
Jackal and Hyena are carving up a piece of roast gargoyle leg (the rest got away). Hyena takes a bite and frowns.
"Damn. It DOES taste just like chicken."

Why wait for "Ask Greg"? Just come to The Gathering and find out in person!
Greg really is totally off on this stone transition egg thing, though.
Also, different eggs are better suited for different things. Duck eggs make great pound cake and lousy eggs over easy. Goose eggs make terrific quiche and I'm pretty sure that a turkey egg will substitute any place you can use a chicken egg. I'm not sure where you'd even start with a gargoyle egg. Brioche for a crowd maybe? ;)

Patrick> <<The egg shell is not a living extension of the embryo, it's just a protective covering.>>
It's also purple, which stone, as a rule, isn't. (Not _that_ purple, anyway.) It's probably safe to assume that the shell just has some structural similarities to stone skin, making it a bit stronger than normal egg shells. (It still couldn't be too strong, obviously, since the babies need to be able to get out eventually.)
Maybe gargoyles don't actually turn to stone for the first time until very close to their hatching day, but starting much earlier than that begin to undergo a similar, but less invasive, transformation. The stone tranformation, however the hell it works, would have to be awfully complicated (not to mention being a huge strain on a fetus), so there might be one or more intermediate stages as the fetus develops, some kind of fetal precursor to "stone" sleep.

When "Ask Greg" becomes operational again, we really ought to ask Greg about these issues (it's more than likely that he simply wasn't aware of them, since, by his own admission, he's not a biology expert), to see what he has to say about them.
Raising gargoyles for their eggs? Now there's a sick and twisted thought. Not a very practicable one, though, since if they only lay one egg every twenty years per female, not only will you not have a frequent supply of them, but also you'll wind up dooming the species to extinction unless you choose only a few eggs. (Of course, whoever's behind the scene could always genetically modify the gargoyles to have them lay eggs more often and in larger amounts.)

Lynati>I know that they turn only on the outside, but where is then point in "The insides transform back and forth" for the egg. I still can't understand it right.
Brutis>I think that reabsorbing would be a very good idea. I like this theory. The only problem now is to find a way to liquidate stone but not to harm the embryo while doing it.

How could the embryo inside a freshly laid gargoyle egg have a stone skin to shed? Skin has to grow and develop just like any other organ. When an egg is laid, the organism inside is just a small cluster of cells.
Likewise, I have a hard time buying into the idea that the eggs themselves turn to stone after the first night. The egg shell is not a living extension of the embryo, it's just a protective covering.

they say that there are no bids for a convention for 2005. ide love to host one down here but theyr are just too many issues that ide have to deal with. money, space, and about a million other things.
ide even love to attend a gathering but i aint driving my 12 y/o tempo to canada and i cant afford to fly. so i am out of luck again.
i still think that the stone inside the eggs must serve some puropse. it must be reabsorbed or something. i just dont know though.

You invite those you love and those who love you will be at the wedding, the rest aren't worth.

I don't have much time, but I would like to add a quick 2 cents on the egg topic. I think that it should be noted that stone can be quite permeable to gases, it all depends on it's composition. If we can assume that a gargoyles "stone" skin is probably more of an organic lattice, its permeability to gasses could be maintained. I'll post more later.

Egg thing - It does seem silly that they would be stone, the breathable shell being a good point and also it is not unreasonable to believer that the shell would protect the developing embryo from the change. Just when considering how violently the gargs throw their stone skin to imagine and embryo doign this every night you would have the next ten years of a Rookery mother having to go right all the eggs that have wiggled and moved on their own.
Or maybe that's a bad point but was a thought that I had.

It's not easy having that many kids. Thankfully I just leave the eggs wherever and stop caring.
<It's probably good money for the state, and what with all the other costs associated with marriage, most couples probably wouldn't notice another little bit.>
Yeah, I know, but my Dog the fees they come up with! I have already paid about $12 in PARKING, and I know I will have to spend another $5 when I turn in the signed license within 10 days of the wedding
<And stop what might be an endless source of amusement?>
And the Bash has spoken... very true.
<We were planning on going out thataway to visit family, but I think it'd happen a bit too late.>
Say, when you come up, ya wanna go camping?
<Besides, I don't think it's good etiquette to have some guy you just saw face to face that day to be your best man.>
Oh, like I would care. If etiquette was really important, LM's grandmother would come and we would actually care what the family thought.
Biology: I seriously doubt that the shells are always stone. As for changing back and forth... you know, I never really thought about the stone fragments in the egg. Maybe they are reabsorbed?

Martin: I think your premise is flawed; after all, stone skin doesn't pile up inside gargoyle organs, it is only on the outside of their form- clothes included. We never saw the gargs taking off their loincloths to shake out stone shards...(not that we *would*, but still.) It would follow that only the very outside of the shell of the egg would shed its "skin", if any part of it was to shed.

Bio discussion>><<"The shell is permanently stone like after the first day. The insides transform back and forth like gargs.">>
Ok, if we take this as a fact, then I have one question: Wouldn't it get quite tight inside the egg? I mean, if they turn to stone and back again, they would leave left-overs of their stone skin behind. And those left-overs would have to accumulate inside the egg. Stealing more and more of the free space.
I hope this opens up new paths for the discussion.

*gives a skeptic look at Greg's egg info*
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Why would Princess Katherine waste turning stone eggs? How could the eggs absorb oxygen through a stone shell? Why bother hiding the eggs deep inside the castle keep? St. Greg can go jump in the lake... he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Hi Spike ::waves:: Yep, an egg with defective genetics won't hatch. If the embryo starts dividing and then hits a terminal defect the process stops. If that happens in an incubator and you don't catch it things can get very messy because a rotten egg in a room environment goes "Boom!" or possibly "Pop!" and "Splat!" Thankfully, that's not happened to me (yet). People that hatch eggs in incubators use a process called candling to check the viability of their hatch. It is as it sounds. You hold the egg over a strong light source and view the development of air sac, veining and so forth. Eggs that are good go back in the 'bator. Eggs that are bad are carefully disposed of.
Now I'm wondering if gargoyles candle their rookeries... maybe some kind of moon ceremony with small chamber and a big reflector... Gee, thanks, Spike. <g>

SPIKE - Greg Weisman said that gargoyle beasts are a separate species than gargoyles (though in the same basic group) which simply happen to live with them as domesticated animals, so I'd say from that that gargoyle beasts come from gargoyle beast eggs rather than from gargoyle eggs that didn't have the right DNA. (It'd be interesting to ask Greg about the other questions, although I suspect that, since by his own admission he's not a biology expert, he might not have worked out the answers or even been aware of the question.)

Heh... a poster over in the S8 chat came up with a good question that I thought I'd relay over here for the people doing the gargoyle biology panel at G'04.
<<I hope Ask Greg is back up soon. I've got a neat biology question.. concerning what happens in the event of a lack of pregnancy. The obvious answer is a period, but egglayers tend to just lay an egg anyway that's no good for babies, only for eatin'. ^_^'

The more I think about this question, the more interesting it becomes. Is this how gargoyle beasts come about? An egg with not enough DNA pairs to make a fully sapient gargoyle? If it's an egg with no embryo, wouldn't it go rotten after a while? Is a stinking rookery the sign of a bad breeding season?

[Philly] Yes, Emambu is a local. However, he still has a year left in college and already turned down an offer to help with the 2005 Vegas bid (which I have confirmation IS being submitted, if it has not already)...but you could always ask him to help for a later con.

Death alone is not easy in general, I just lost another family member in April of old age but it still is not easy.
Congratulations on getting married it is coming up soon, I am sure life is pretty crazy right now for you.

they are VERY sweet little babies. very skinny and starved-looking right now, with ribs and spines sticking out, but very nice, calm and loving personalities.

At the very least I would like a way to trick it into thinking I have it installed when I dont(assuming that doesnt mean a string of random characters on my screen)...

Gside: <Classical, non vocal, and light strings? What else would you use but Cannon?>
Well, yeah. The processional and recessional are easy to pick. It's the background songs at the reception, the father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, and couple first dance that are difficult to pick out. (Those ones don't need to be classical, etc.)

<You'll find out when you want to commiserate about the rigors of married life.>
Yeah, but since I don't have many (or really any) local married male friends, that's a bit unlikely.
<How do you get rust out of fertilizer?>
I think the rust is fertilizer for plants that require iron rich soil
<At least it's better than the yearly lab equipment check>
Boring?
<Porn? Too bad two such great joys don't meld well>
Hmm... well... as long as you don't watch it too much and simply use the profits from it to pay for your house...
<I guess that means it's a good time to become a feminist and insist on a reversal of traditional gender roles>
Hmm... well, I do cook... I can't clean... I pay the bills... I've birthed a few million eggs so far...
Looks like I am half way there
<Unless there's anything on the immediate horizon, she'll probably get used to the name change enough to think of it as her name when anything big happens>
Nothing immediate. Oh yeah, we found out that in the state of Michigan, it costs $150 to change your name, even if you are getting married.
<I gtuess that means it's time to get random people very drunk and see what you can convince them to do>
But do I still get to kill them afterwards? Well, I guess that letting them live with the horrors that they have done can be a fate worse than death...
<Hey, just like my tie dyed bandana. So any chance I could be a bridesmaid?>
Well, I do need a few groomsmen. My side is a bit empty (or totally empty)

Hey, to the Fish that hides like an eel in a choral reef (whatever) I need to speak with you and get a critique on stuff. I'll be around usually after 8 pm ct. time. Thanks!
Oh yeah, and Anime Central in Chicago was great! One of the skits for the Mascarade (sp) was stage ninjas (I just love that term) leading out five dudes wrapped in black garbage bags. Then the announcer says "What really happened after the creation of the Evangelion" (or something like that, Sean got it, but I've never seen Evangelion). Then the ninjas ripped away the plastic and revealed.......
Five giant dancing boxes of POCKY!!!! They had arm holes and big sticks of pocky and danced around and had no eye holes out the front, only on the sides, so it was hilarious! Pocky Pocky Pocky!
And I got a Scott McNeil, voice of Wolverine, Xmen Evolution, and Kouga, Inu Yasha, signed a Inu. poster for me! And me and Sean got our pic taken with him. He is one cooool dude. He even did this little skit thing doing like five characters from Beast Wars. You'd think the dude is a bit schizophrenic or something, but it was awesome! And, he gave us Pocky!
We also sat in on a discussion about the Power Rangers and how it was before it got Americanized. It was a pretty cool show. Really violent and bloody, and yet still a kids show in Japan. The plots were a whole lot better too. All indepth and like a soap opera with continuity. I'd watch Power Rangers proudly if they had kept it like that. It was cool!
In other news, I am now officially a photog intern at the local CBS affiliate, WISH-TV. So far I've carried a tripod to the ends of the earth, shot some stuff, edited some stuff, and learned how to set up the live satellite trucks. And that was just in three days!. I also got to meet Rupert from Survivor. Creepy-ass dude, btw. Friendly, but I so would not want to run into that face in a dark alley. I also spent all Sunday at the Indy 500 Speedway track. We were reporting on the qualification runs, and a racer named Tony Stewart played us all by making pretend that he was gonna try to qualify for the first time in years. So we all looked dumb. Well, me, I'm just the intern. But see, I know crap about racing, and find it incredibly boring, pointless, and smelly (ugh, car exhaust) not to mention loud. So I spent the day having no clue what was going on. And I was hungry with no money. I wanted a big pretzel. Heck I was so hungry I began to remember the taste of Puerto Rican Mofongo, and I've only at that once!
Ok and last bit: My idiot bro is getting sent to Iraq in August. Yes, my dad just came back from there in March. But Retard-Boy joined the AF during the middle of a WAR so I have no clue why my family is surprised. Yeah. But this is also the same brother that swore up and down that J. Edgar Hoover was the best damn president that we ever had and he would be proud to take a bullet for him......Nuf said.
So that's me lately.

Still looking for a way to stop from being spammed with INSTALL SHOCKWAVE Y/N all the time when I browse on my portable -- I really do *NOT* want to install shockwave on that machine -- it is my experience that the only thing it is used for is intrusive ads in general...

Fair enough, but sooner or later you'll want to learn to cop out of such duties. What was it that Bill Cosby said with regards to avoiding household chores? Something like "Only men of such genius could feign such great stupidity." Something like that...oh, and watch out for those brain damaged children! :)
GSide - <It wouldn't be truly random without temporary patterns.>
Well put.
<Read the play, saw the movie, collected proof about Rosenkrantz at least. I assume you're talking about the stopping of probability in the begining.>
Yes. I'm not much of a reader, but even I loved the play. It's one of my favorites.
Peace

I've finally done it. At least once.
It's always good to start your day with a good cup of coffee.
