The Ravenwood Bar

[gnarley]

I can do without the alligators, I'm not worried about the rest. :)

[krullglaive]

lol....if you don't feed them or mess with them they are ok....i think the worst are the mosquitos...they are awful....*looks at gnarley and smiles*....so you don't want one for a pet???

[gnarley]

Nope :D. Would you like another drink? How are you doing?

I went swimming early today and spent over 2 hours in the pool. I didn't put any sunblock on and now I have a sunburn covering my neck, shoulders and all of my back, maybe even the tops of my feet too. :( Oh well, I'll live. Usually I don't go into the pool until after 4 o' clock.

[krullglaive]

yes i would love another drink ...thank you...you are funny ...we know to be careful with sun here but it is easy to get burned....i know i skip going to the beach in the middle of the day...i love it early in the morning though very peaceful...*sips the last of her drink*......

[gnarley]

Here's your drink: *hands a cold one to krullglaive*

At least if the beach is on the ocean, it's cooler because of the breeze. Inland, there's little escape from the heat except of course air conditioning and pools.

[krullglaive]

thank you gnarley....yes the ocean breeze does help.... ac is something i don't think i could live without...the pool is good but ac rules....*looks around* do you feel we are the only two that comes to this bar....hmmmm i wonder is something wrong with us?? did i run them off when i entered ?? i hope not ..maybe i should leave.....*sips beer and wonders*

[gnarley]

Your welcome. It's not you and there's nothing wrong with us. Possibly everyone spends more time in all the other threads like this, there's one in practically evey forum here. I prefer these quiet, out of the way places anyway.:)

[krullglaive]

i know i came to this bar because it was quieter...i use to go to another and i still do just not as much now *sips drink thinking coffee would be more appropriate*....i just feel bad though because ..i know Todd and Flukeman use to come and they haven't even shown up ..its like i am the plaque..hehe *listens to sad song playing in the background*

[gnarley]

I can't say why nobody else comes here anymore but it's not because of you. I reread the pages where you first started posting here and everyone was talking with you. I don't see anything that was posted by you or anyone else, that would cause everyone to leave and not come back. So, don't worry about it. If you want to continue chatting with me here, I'm more than willing to keep talking with you. :)

[todd philip]

hi peeps

[gnarley]

Hi Todd, welcome back.

[krullglaive]

thanks gnarley ...i like talking to you....and i am thrilled to see Todd ....hey Todd...i am glad i didnt run you off....*sips drink and smiles*.....we need happy music, gnarley

I'm back krull! I haven't been online much at all recently, it's not just this thread. But I promise I'll be around more.

Let's put on a happy song.

*picks Brown Eyed Girl on the jukebox*

[gnarley]

Welcome back flukeman.

I'm not sure if I know any good happy songs, I'll have to think about it. Hope everyone has a good weekend and see you when the boards are back up. They should be closed before I get here tomorrow.

[krullglaive]

hey flukeman i am glad you and todd came back !!!!!....gnarley see you after the weekend ...*sips last drink before weekend* i hope you all have fun over the weekend ....talk to you monday..........................

[todd philip]

everybody dance!!!!!!!!!

[krullglaive]

*looks at Todd dancing and giggles* ok then ...* stands and begins to do famous spin dance...lol....yaaaaay the bar is open for business..!!!!

[flukeman]

Well, the bar's open earlier than I thought it would be.

*starts to dance*

[droidguy1119]

Yeah, lol, we know everyone on CS is a drunkard, because there's a bar in almost every forum...you alcoholics, you!

[flukeman]

Not like you're an alcoholic or anything, droid :wink:

Want a drink?

[krullglaive]

hey!!! ...*looks around to see if she sees any alcoholics* nope not any here...
* giggles and continues to dance*

[gnarley]

Hi everyone... hope you had a great weekend. I spent the last 2 days babysitting my niece and nephews, it was fun but tiring. I like the updates very much.

[krullglaive]

hey, gnarley glad to see you ..yes the updates are good....the weekend was ok ..rained alot....*sips drink and wishes headache would go away*

[flukeman]

Barhopping is fun. How's your headache krull?

*passes krull some Advil*

[gnarley]

How many of these bars do you visit? This is the only one I go to.

I use the generic version of Advil (Ibuprophen), they're really good. Hope your headache goes away quickly krull.

[flukeman]

Mostly I'm found in the Green Dragon in the LOTR forum, but I've been stepping out into the Community one a bit.

[gnarley]

I barely go into either of those forums. I do love LOTR though and I did read the books last November. I have a question about the FOTR, who exactly is Tom Bombadil? When I read the books, I glossed over that part. In fact I almost gave up on the books but I kept reading them and really got into them as the story went along. It was just some of the changes and parts left out threw me off. I think I would have enjoyed the books more if I read them before seeing the movies.

[krullglaive]

hey gnarley and flukeman can't face deep conversation right now just going to sneak past and sit in the back corner...* gets drink ..sits at back table..*...hmmmm *looks around ...puts head on table*.................

[fattybolger]

"enters and looks around...spots krullgaive with her head down"

Hi, all...I usually hang out in the GD but was checking out some other boards.
Was a big Indy fan when they first came out....

Can I bring you anything, krull?

[krullglaive]

*lefts head up* hi !! ...sure.. i will take another drink ...i need it...*sits up straight pushes hair out of eyes and smiles ever so sweety*...how are you?

[fattybolger]

*lefts head up* hi !! ...sure.. i will take another drink ...i need it...*sits up straight pushes hair out of eyes and smiles ever so sweety*...how are you?

Doing OK, thanks. What'll you have? I sneak into places like this between clients so there may be gaps in my conversation :smile:

[krullglaive]

bring me anything you like even though i drink alot in here i really dont.. so anything will be fine...hehe...oh.. dont worry about talking to me ...*drops head back on table*..i am use to being alone...*giggles to herself*...what would you like me to call you??

[fattybolger]

bring me anything you like even though i drink alot in here i really dont.. so anything will be fine...hehe...oh.. dont worry about talking to me ...*drops head back on table*..i am use to being alone...*giggles to herself*...what would you like me to call you??

If you are still here, FB is fine... :smile:

(passes over some tea)

Tea is a good boost on a down day...watch banging your head on the table :grin:

Life being tough on you, huh?

[krullglaive]

*picks head up and rubs foehead* thank you FB for the tea ....it will make me feel better...i really do feel fine just tired....so you are busy??

[fattybolger]

*picks head up and rubs foehead* thank you FB for the tea ....it will make me feel better...i really do feel fine just tired....so you are busy??

Today is quite busy, which is a good thing :smile: How about you?...busy while virtually seated here or having a quiet Morning/afternoon/evening?(not quite sure where your mind's eye is?) :smile:

[fattybolger]

"rises and stretches"

C'ya later, Krull :smile: Nice meeting you...

"wanders out the door"

[krullglaive]

giggles my mind's eye works right here in USA and stays busy.......* stands up to leave too* nice meeting you to FB...talk again sometime soon....bye bye.....*walks out the door still rubbing forehead*....

[gnarley]

Hi FB, welcome to the Ravenwood.

*grabs another beer and sits at regular table*
Glad you're feeling better Krull. I'm tired too, still not getting to bed early enough.

[flukeman]

Hi fattybolger, so you found the Ravenwood :smile: Welcome! I nip in here sometimes when I'm taking a break from the GD.

Hope you feel better krull, and gnarley - go to bed! :smile:

[gnarley]

gnarley - go to bed! :smile:

:sleepy: :grin:

Actually it's not even 9 o'clock yet but when I do go to bed early, people wake me up earlier so I'm just as tired. :frown:

[flukeman]

I have the same problem - I should be in bed, it's almost midnight, In fact, why am I here?!

[krullglaive]

good morning...i went to bed early last night ..that is something for me...i feel great..but i think i am talking to myself....hello....hello.....oh well *grabs drink and sits at usual table * maybe someone will come....giggles...

[gnarley]

Hi... I overslept today, I didn't get up til after 11:30. I really need to start going to bed early.

[krullglaive]

lol...you do need to go to sleep earlier * grabs drink* how are you feeling? .... are you glad its the weekend? i am..yup...*.goes to back table continues to drink ..lol*

[gnarley]

No, weekends are mostly the same as weekdays for me. I'm good how are you?

It was really cool today, the temp only rose to 92 this afternoon and the pool was cooold. BRR!! but it was refreshing in it's way.

And I found the answer to my own question about Tom Bombadil. I just typed his name in Yahoo! search and found some sites that helped.

*downs a pitcher of beer and passes out in the back of the bar........*

[krullglaive]

i am fine ..it has cooled off here in the 80s..i love it....did you ask me about him if so i am sorry....i must have missed it..* thinks she has been speaking to gnarley and he has passed out in the back of the bar* gnarley....gnarley ...wake up ..*gets ice cold water to pour on gnarley's head*....

[gnarley]

i am fine ..it has cooled off here in the 80s..i love it....did you ask me about him if so i am sorry....i must have missed it..* thinks she has been speaking to gnarley and he has passed out in the back of the bar* gnarley....gnarley ...wake up ..*gets ice cold water to pour on gnarley's head*....

GAH!! ... hi... *mumbles something incoherently*... hope... you... good weekend...

:sleepy:

[krullglaive]

* giggles...but hope gnarley cant here...* gnarley wake up all that cold water will make you sick....gnarley...gnarley.....* runs to get help*

[gnarley]

*gnarley rubs his bloodshot eyes, staggers to his feet and stumbles out the door*

Hi krull, hope you had a good weekend. *achoo!* See you tomorrow.

[krullglaive]

bye gnarley hope you feel better..* watches gnarley leave ....grabs a drink and sits in back*

[flukeman]

*strolls in*

How's everyone doing?

[gnarley]

I'm doing good, thank you. How are you?

It got a little humid today, the temp rose to 102. I went swimming again and the water was perfect. Not much else hapened.

[krullglaive]

hey...i am in a great mood even though i think we are going to have bad weather...* goes to bar gets drink*...Gnarley do you swim good.?..dive? ..do you have a sunburn? lol

[gnarley]

No sunburns, I've been using lotion and I'm an OK swimmer(self taught) but I don't dive. Do you swim?

Hopefully the weather doesn't get too bad. What do you do for fun?

[flukeman]

Swimming in the ocean or a pool gnarley? Either one sounds good to me right now...

[gnarley]

In ground, unheated, 8 1/2 foot deep pool and I've only been able to get in it for about 30 mins a day during the week.

[krullglaive]

hey flukeman and gnarley....
i live near the ocean ..i do swim and i bike ..i like going to the zoo and to movies ..i love bookstores and cafes and coffeehouses...lol..i like quiet fun...how about you?

you need more time in your pool...

[flukeman]

hey krull and gnarley :)

I live about 2-3 hours from the ocean, depending on which direction I want to go in. I haven't gotten there as much as I would have liked so far, every year it seems like I get there less and less.

Our neighbors have a pool I can use but I rarely go in. Not enough time I guess.

[gnarley]

Hi Krull and Fluke,

The ocean is around 2 hours away from me too. Glad I have the pool! Because of my work, I don't have the time to go out like I'd like to, so I watch DVDs and surf the net til 2-3 AM. I'm trying to get to bed earlier but something always comes up. Last night I kept waking up off and on all night and the night before I was awakened when a spider crawled on me. I'd like to read more but don't have the time, in fact the last books I read were the LOTR trilogy and the Harry Potter series last Nov when my old comp died.

[krullglaive]

hi fluke and gnarley
i just lived through a hurricane ..we were lucky but ..i still dont know how some of my friends are in orlando..i hate hurricane season...
gnarley..a spider now...yikes...i would be afraid to shut my eyes...lol...i bet now that the hurricane is over here i will see insects coming in..i hope not..*runs to get waste paper baskets to put over them ..* someone else will have to take care of them for me...hehehe....*grabs a drink* it has been a rough couple of days....whew.!!

[flukeman]

Glad to hear you're ok krull! It must have been so scary. We've a few hurricanes up here, but the ones I've been through have been relatively mild. I can't imagine what it must be like being in the middle of 100 mph winds and rain.

*passes krull a strong drink*

here, you might need this.

[krullglaive]

thank you fluke.. i can use that drink..i think every hurricane i have to go through is scary even the small ones .. they are so stressfull... i finally found out everyone i know is ok so i feel alot better ..now it is clean up time..that isnt fun either..*gulps drink* hope you are well and safe...and you too gnarley...

[gnarley]

Welcome back krull, glad you're safe. I take it you didn't evacuate and leave the state or anything, what did you do to protect yourself? I can experience 70-80 mph winds with gusts up to 100 mph in late winter through spring but nothing like those in hurricanes. On the rare occasion, I can get a slight taste of hurricanes as they move up the coast and heads out into the Pacific.

*buys krull another drink*

[krullglaive]

i am not in an evacuate zone so usually if i board up the windows and prepare i am ok..of course if it is above a category 4 no one knows...i go to my hall with my pets and hope for the best...we were lucky this time...hurricanes are scary ....we in florida know that hurricane season is coming but it is always something we dread
thank you for the drink , gnarley * sips drink and thinks she is glad to be back with friends*

[gnarley]

Your welcome krull. Glad to know that you and your friends are all ok. At least with hurricanes, you have time to prepare or the evacuate if you have to. We get earthquakes and there isn't any warning for when they will strike. They can happen at any time, last only a few minutes and cause just as much damage as a hurricane.

[krullglaive]

gnarley, i think earthquakes are the worst...i feel really bad for you...we have it better...the warning does help...i see pictures of the earthquakes and it breaks my heart...i hope you dont have one...* gives gnarley a drink just to help ease his mind * battling the insects is bad enough....how are you by the way?? lol ..we are depressing.....giggles

[gnarley]

Thanks for the drink and I'm doing good. The big earthquakes that cause all the damage are few and far between so I don't worry about them. When they do strike though, they can be both exciting and scary until the damage reports come in then they can be sad and depressing. Actually there are quakes everyday, we just can't feel most of them since they are so tiny.

[krullglaive]

hi gnarley... i will buy you another drink but first i need to know if you are of drinking age ..these bars are not checking IDs enough... lol...i sound like i am worried about it.....does Indy come in this bar??

[gnarley]

Thanks... no need for the ID check, all the grey hair on my head points to the fact that I'm of drinking age. :(

Indy comes here but he doesn't stick around long, always travelling the world looking for lost artifacts. :)

[krullglaive]

big smile...i am so glad to hear i dont have to worry about ID ..i will get that drink immediately..*runs to get gnarley a drink.* i will see if indy is behind the bar...lol

[gnarley]

Thank you. I'd buy you another drink but you never said if you were over the age. Hmmm......

[krullglaive]

big smile ...yes i am and i could use one..actually i could use coffee... it is morning here...lol...so are you a big indy's fan? how many times have you seen them ?

[gnarley]

Here's your coffee. I'm a huge Indy fan. I've probably watched the movies over forty times each over the years. I never cared much for the Young Indiana Jones series though. How about you?

[krullglaive]

yes . i am a fan as well ..but ..i haven't seen them that many times.... * drinks her coffee and wonders what it is about these movies that makes him want to see them 40 times each*

[gnarley]

yes . i am a fan as well ..but ..i haven't seen them that many times.... * drinks her coffee and wonders what it is about these movies that makes him want to see them 40 times each*

It's Indy!! Need I say any thing more. :D I may have been exagerating a bit but I have seen them a lot, at least twice a year every year.

[krullglaive]

lol..so you exagerated huh? ... *grabs a drink from the bar and giggles at gnarley's remarks* well then..how are you?

[flukeman]

Gnarley's right - it's Indy! Why wouldn't you want to watch it over and over? :)

How's everyone doing?

[gnarley]

I'm good, how are you?

It turned cold here, it's usually 102 but this last week it's been in the low 80's. The cooler temp has made the pool ice cold, so I haven't been swimming. We have a pretty good cold breeze outside (nature's air conditioning :) ).

[krullglaive]

*sticks head in door...decides to walk in * hey guys... i am fine ..i wish it was 80 degrees here, gnarley..i bet most people would think 80 is still hot...*giggles and goes to bar to get a drink*

[gnarley]

What's the temp where you are? It warmed up to the low 90's today but we turned off the pump and will drain it soon. :( Once the water turns ice cold, it doesn't warm up again.

Glad you're fine. *buys a round for everyone*:D

[krullglaive]

hey..it is 94 here but the humiture makes it much hotter...we will swim all the way to winter probably....hope you are well....thanks for the drink gnarley *sips drink and wonders if this is the night indy comes*

[gnarley]

Your welcome and you can have the humidity.
*suddenly Indy walks in and orders a quick drink*
Gnarley says to him, " Krullglaives been looking forward to meeting you but she's not here right now."
*Indy asks gnarley to tell krull that maybe they'll meet next time he's in town, then he downs his drink and tells gnarley that he's off to South America for a few months. Tips his hat and heads out the door*
:D

[krullglaive]

oooh nooo...i missed him..* walks in...looks around *. why wasn't i here ..gnarley you have all the luck..* sticks out pouting lip * i wanted to see indy....he has gone to South America ?...for a few months.?.*gets drink.. sits at back table and bangs head on table.*..why me... why me... indy come back.............hehe

[gnarley]

Don't bang your head, you'll get a headache.

*gets krull 2 Ibuprophen and some water*

[krullglaive]

i really need those tonight ..*lifts head off table..pushes hair back and rubs red place on forehead*..i feel awful.....and i missed indy..and now another hurricane..ooooohhhhh....hope you are ok.. are things going well ?..been doing any mining gnarley?..*continues to rub head*..........

[gnarley]

I hope you feel better soon and be carefull with that hurricane. Is it supposed to be as bad or worse than the last one?

No mining but I finally got to go see Spider-man 2. Things are going pretty good, after getting back from the movie, I scraped the soapscum off the shower tiles with a razor blade. It's the best way to remove that stuff and I have to do more of it tomorrow. :( All part of the job.

[flukeman]

*does double take*

Indy was here? Ooh, he's a crafty sort, but he'll be back. We'll catch him then krull :) Be careful in the hurricane, you're not getting a break are you?

[krullglaive]

no, i am not Flukeman i am scared too..this one is really bad...i wish indy was here ..hmmm but then what could he do...save me...yaaaaaay..hehehe....hope you and gnarley stay safe while i am off..i hope i will be able to stay on..but power will probably go..
gnarley glad you saw spidey but soapscum ..that sounds awful...giggles..*gulps drink* have to go prepare for this hurricane... see you soon.......i hope....bye bye......

[flukeman]

Good luck battening down the hatches krull. Hope you stay safe *sends good thoughts krull's way*

[gnarley]

*cough, cough* I'm done with the soapscum *cough, cough*
Barkeep, some water please

*raises glass in air* Here's to Krull and all the other Floridians, may you be safe and sound throughout the hurricane and come back unharmed.

[krullglaive]

thank you ..flukeman..it is nice that you care....* gulps drink*...

[gnarley]

*walks in an orders a drink, sits down and thinks about the hurricane in Florida, at least five dead, all the damage. Lowers head and worries about krull*

[krullglaive]

gnarley...i am finally back...i missed you..i have been with out power but ok..i am so glad to be back..are you ok?..it is still storming here and tornados.. but ..at least i am here today... now i am worried about another * gets drink... sits at back table * for now i am happy......big smile

[gnarley]

gnarley...i am finally back...i missed you..i have been with out power but ok..i am so glad to be back..are you ok?..it is still storming here and tornados.. but ..at least i am here today... now i am worried about another * gets drink... sits at back table * for now i am happy......big smile

Whew!!... welcome back! I was really worried about you. :) I'm ok but some scientist had predicted a major earthquake that was supposed to happen by Labour Day, turned out to be a false alarm. I'm very glad that I don't have to go through what you have to.

How long is hurricane season and how many do you get each year?

*sits back relieved that krull's safe and buys her a big drink*

[krullglaive]

i didnt know anything about your earthquake prediction ..i want you to tell me.. i need to know how you are too..*sips drink* ..thanks for the drink..i am glad you didnt have and earthquake... i am really tired of hurricanes ..now there is another...oooohhhhh... i am tired of worrying and being scared...oh well guess i will wait and see...* gulps the drink down and looks around for more*

[gnarley]

Here have another drink on me, you need it.

The prediction was nothing but there's no sense worrying about them. If it happens it happens, though I did move my DVD collection lower to the ground to be on the safe side. :D Earthquakes are nothing compared to what you go through. Take care of yourself.

[flukeman]

*enters and orders two large drinks for krull and gnarley*

Sorry I've been away - krull, are you doing okay? How is cleanup going?

Gnarley, that's scary about the earthquake, just waiting to see if it happens. There isn't really much you can do since you can't see it coming :( Good thing it didn't happen.

[krullglaive]

hey, gnarley and flukeman ...i am glad you were both here and fine....i am doing well and i have everything clean ...now i am bracing for the next one..maybe i still have a chance it will be ok.. i hope ... thanks for the drinks .. i am thinking if it keeps up i might actually have a real drink...giggles...

gnarley, i think earthquakes are worse ...yes ...at least we are warned... i worry about you now..

flukeman, i am glad you dropped in to see us..you have no disasters ?

*sips drink and takes a break before worrying more*

[gnarley]

Hi flukeman and krull.

When's the next one coming, krull? Geez, haven't you guys been through enough already? I may have to send you a keg, :D your nerves must be pretty much shot by now.

Earthquakes can be pretty scary, especially the ones that strike in the middle of the night. Everything starts to shake and the ground feels like its rolling and the farther you are from the epicenter, the longer they seem to last. Usually I ignore the predictions but this one was made by a scientist. There have been many prediction, including having most of California sinking into the ocean but they never happen. Wouldn't mind having beach front property though. ;) :D

Here's a link to an article about the prediction if you're interested:

[toddgoodguy]

hi

[krullglaive]

hi todd ...how are you?

i think it will be tuesday ..not sure where...,i think i have to wait and see... the wait is awful...gnarley ..you tell them to stop..i have had enough...yup...where is that keg??
*looks for keg...sips drink while looking*

i couldnt see it gnarley...they sound bad ..you tape everything down..duct tape hehehe..that will look nice in your beach home......

[todd philip]

good

[krullglaive]

hehehe i am glad , todd...i wish you would come here more often ...i am fine too...

[gnarley]

i think it will be tuesday ..not sure where...,i think i have to wait and see... the wait is awful...gnarley ..you tell them to stop..i have had enough...yup...where is that keg??
*looks for keg...sips drink while looking*

i couldnt see it gnarley...they sound bad ..you tape everything down..duct tape hehehe..that will look nice in your beach home......

You may be using the keg for a stool :D. When you find it, save some for tuesday. You're really going to need some then.

Duct tape... hmmm. *wonders if there'll be too much grey and if it'll be too hard on the eyes*

Hi Toddgoodguy and Todd, welcome back.

[krullglaive]

*looks down at stool * it is my keg ...thanks again gnarley..the hurricane is turning west ..maybe i will be fine...but this keg well make a lovely stool in my kitchen anyway (big smile) ..*wonders ...do i sling it over my shoulder to haul it home.* hmmmmm
gnarley you don't like gray.. i thought you would wear your sunglasses in your fancy beach house to cut the glare of the duct tape... what do i know.. well, guess i will go * strains to lift keg and slings it on shoulder ..thinking this isnt the most feminine thing i have ever done..* ..ok then..* tries to stand up straight and delicately* ..byeee ....... this is heavy...

[todd philip]

me want booze!

[gnarley]

*looks down at stool * it is my keg ...thanks again gnarley..the hurricane is turning west ..maybe i will be fine...but this keg well make a lovely stool in my kitchen anyway (big smile) ..*wonders ...do i sling it over my shoulder to haul it home.* hmmmmm

Well, you know... you could always borrow a dolly ;), much easier on your back than carrying it. I'm glad the hurricane is turning away from you but there's still too many people dead from it.

gnarley you don't like gray.. i thought you would wear your sunglasses in your fancy beach house to cut the glare of the duct tape... what do i know.. well, guess i will go * strains to lift keg and slings it on shoulder ..thinking this isnt the most feminine thing i have ever done..* ..ok then..* tries to stand up straight and delicately* ..byeee ....... this is heavy...

I see too much grey, in fact my bedroom walls are grey with darker grey trim, plus my carpet is grey with white horizontal and vertical lines covering a painted grey concrete floor. Everything else in my place is basically variations of brown, including the outdoors in which I see brown sand, dirt, bushes and mountains.:( There's some green and an almost constant blue sky. I NEED MORE COLOUR!! :angry: :D

*buys Todd an ice cold, refreshing drink*

[krullglaive]

*hands on hips* now you tell me gnarley... the keg is at home now and makes a great stool for the kitchen but it was very heavy.. yup

your place sounds very nice ..i really don't think you need more color just add flowering plants or pillows if you think you need more ..i think it sounds beautiful as is ...and your scenery is so much better than the flat land i see ..we do have alot of trees and water but it is all flat and absolutely no change in seasons.. winter will have only a few cool to cold days ... do you have changes in temp.?

i feel sorrow for those who have been affected by this hurricane ..i wish we could stop having them now...all natural disasters are horrible

Todds drink looks great ..i think i will have one too* goes to get the same thing todd is drinking*..........*thinking gnarley didnt mention his huge supply of duct tape* ..hmmmm

[gnarley]

Flowers and pillows... Blah!! We have sun almost 10 months a year and very hot summers. In the late winter/spring, we get very strong and cold winds. The sage brush is green until summertime then turns brown like everything else. :(

*buys krull a tall, cold drink*

[krullglaive]

well,you want ribbons and lace?? i have lots of ribbons ..i could share...*giggles*well your heat and sun sounds like mine but the cold wind sounds great ..i like wind.. i have never seen sage brush ..is that the stuff in cowboy movies ?...are you a cowboy gnarley? hehe
*sips drink * thanks for the drink gnarley

[gnarley]

I was thinking more along the lines of flames and skulls ;):D.

The wind can be ice cold and blows lots of sand and dust everywhere. Sagebrush is like the stuff in cowboy movies but tumbleweeds are worse, they have these thorn like pieces that easily come off. You don't want to grab a tumbleweed and stepping on the thorns with bare or socked feet is no picnic. No. I'm not a cowboy :), I'm an archeologist/adventurer... no, wait... that's Indy. :D

[krullglaive]

no ribbons and lace ..gnarley..hehe..flames and skulls ..yikes...
well the wind still sounds fine but then the sand and those tumbleweed things do they fly up in the air..... if they got in my hair ...well i am getting a bad picture of me and tumbleweeds ..... maybe sunshine and beaches are a good thing..giggles

so you are not a cowboy.. oh yeah, you are a miner and dream one day of becoming indy's assistant perhaps...* sips drink and trys to picture gnarley.....as indy's assistant*

[flukeman]

*pictures krull rolling along with a stray tumbleweed*

No, that wouldn't be good :)

I'm in Massachusetts - it's starting to get a little cool here now, like in the 60s. It'll get colder and colder until it starts snowing in maybe last November, and then we get winter until April. Below zero windchills and all that. Then it's spring for a little bit, then it's summer and it's pretty hot. So we get all 4 seasons :)

[krullglaive]

flukeman ..i am soooo jealous..i want seasons...i just want one whole week of cold weather..i bet it is beautiful there ...i have never seen mass. i wouldnt know what it would be like to wear a coat... florida is ok but you and gnarley both seem to live in prettier places ..except i do worry about gnarley's spider things and that tumbleweed stuff whew.....*sips drink and giggles ..thinking i might better stay with the sharks*....yup

[flukeman]

I've been to Florida a couple times - I must say that I'm jealous of your palm trees :)

Never been up here? You should come visit sometime :) It is beautiful in the winter, but when it gets to be March and the snow is all grey and mushy and it's damp and cold, it get's really tiring. That's when I wish for sun and beaches!

[todd philip]

I live in CONNECTICUT, yay!

[flukeman]

Yay, a fellow New Englander!

[todd philip]

cool, where abouts you live in mass?

[gnarley]

florida is ok but you and gnarley both seem to live in prettier places ..except i do worry about gnarley's spider things and that tumbleweed stuff whew.....*sips drink and giggles ..thinking i might better stay with the sharks*....yup

How could you think deserts are pretty? They're ugly, brown and full of sand, spiders, scorpions and rattlesnakes. Plus it's blazing hot during the summer and warm in the winter until the wind kicks up. Well... at least I don't get your humidity. I used to live in the Pacific Northwest, it used to rain almost 9 months out of the year, or so it seemed, and heavily too. Also used to get snow for 2 weeks per year. Man I miss it :(

I never been farther east than Vegas and Saskatoon. The winters must be harsh there. I prefer the west coast though, except that we are 3 hours behind the east coast. You guys get to see new TV shows before we do.

[flukeman]

todd, I live in western MA near the CT border actually.

I think deserts are pretty in a stark sort of way. I guess that's because I've never been in one myself. That's why I love it here, we get a little bit of everything season-wise (actually a lot).

[todd philip]

do you a mass accent?

I pawk my caa?

[flukeman]

Nope, there's no accent (that I'm aware of) at this end of the state. Now, if you lived around Bahstan, then you'd certainly be pahkin' your cah, perhaps in Hahvahd Yahd :)

[krullglaive]

hehehe.. yall are cute with the accents ..i have heard ..i have a slight southern accent..*hands on hip* it is not country...yall hear me now...hehehe...just ever so slight ...giggle ..ok gnarley what about you?...by the way i would love to live in any new england state..very nice.....*sips drink because i am in a bar *....

[gnarley]

Hmmm... people have told me that they could detect an accent when I talk and I've noticed that I say certain words differently. I say words like buoy as "boy" while others pronounce it "boo-ey", plus for a word like roof I say rooof. The o's sound like ooo while some people say ruff. I just don't end my sentences with eh every time I talk, eh. :D

[todd philip]

hehehe.. yall are cute with the accents ..i have heard ..i have a slight southern accent..*hands on hip* it is not country...yall hear me now...hehehe...just ever so slight ...giggle ..ok gnarley what about you?...by the way i would love to live in any new england state..very nice.....*sips drink because i am in a bar *....

Well I do declare, you are a southern belle? Well gooooolly!

[krullglaive]

* giggles and blushes *..it isnt that noticeable...hehe..i hope... i can practice talking like i am from new england .yup..*runs off to try to find book to learn new accent*...yup....gnarley where are you?..it isnt that bad ..yall know that ...lol.................................well maybe a southern belle but not country .......hehehe.....i will find that book .......lol

[gnarley]

:rolleyes: I think you've been drinking too much. :D

I'm somewhere in California brushing the sand and tumbleweeds out of my hair.

[krullglaive]

*hands on hips* GNARLEY you know that is nothing but colored water..i dont drink..well i might have a glass of wine but ..i dont have too much to drink.. i just dont care for a southern drawl..i really hate that...yup.. i figured you were in California

i was only playing..* sips water and thinks gnarley thinks shes a ...a ...well...a* i am not......huffs... off............giggle......

[todd philip]

(todd starts talking in an old southern gentlemen's voice)

Miss krullglaive, I must protest, and say that i deduce that you are an odd person. And that I must slap your keester forthwith! So if you'll kindly follow me to the woodshed...

[krullglaive]

*hands on hip once again* well i declare sir..i never...i will not ...i am a lady and not odd
* picks up skirt and marches off in huff with pouty lip*..... slap my ...hmmmm....i just declare such talk...whew......*sipping her mint julip*..........................*shakes head*.................................

[gnarley]

*hands on hips* GNARLEY you know that is nothing but colored water..i dont drink..well i might have a glass of wine but ..i dont have too much to drink.. i just dont care for a southern drawl..i really hate that...yup.. i figured you were in California

i was only playing..* sips water and thinks gnarley thinks shes a ...a ...well...a* i am not......huffs... off............giggle......

Hmmm... OK, let me buy you another drink. How about a Shirley Temple or a Roy Rogers? :D

[krullglaive]

oh thank you, gnarley...hmmm i think shirley temple is good...yup...how are you?...see the new hurricane coming ?...i need to move... what do you drink ?? i will buy sometime too.....maybe now...yup

[gnarley]

Your welcome... I'm good and I heard that the next hurricane has a good chance of being down graded to a tropical storm. Looks like you might luck out this time. Right now I'm having a glass of chocolate milk :) but I'll switch to water later on.

[krullglaive]

yaay no hurricane * she does the no hurricane dance* ...i am so happy i dont have to face those two... now another behind it but i have a while
*orders a chocolate milk for gnarley* glad you are well i am too...did you have a fun weekend ?...
i hope flukeman and todd are fine too....
*sips her shirley temple* ...hmmm where is everyone?

[gnarley]

Thanks for the drink and WOO HOOO!!! about no hurricane :). Hopefully the next one will pass you by also.

I spent saturday painting and today I watched a movie, otherwise it was quiet.

[krullglaive]

quiet here too..i enjoyed seeing sunshine and getting out ..it even got a little cooler ..really nice..painting hmmmm.. like a picture or inside /outside a house..or finger painting in coloring book or....huh? ....are you creative?
*Sips drink and thinks tomorrow is monday* do you like mondays?

[todd philip]

*sips her shirley temple* ...hmmm where is everyone?
Well i for one love hurricaines

http://www.purecajun.com/graphics/posthurr.jpg

[gnarley]

I painted the bathroom walls Navajo White, which is an offwhite/tan colour. The wall used to be green. Tomorrow I'll put on the second coat. I used to draw but I don't enjoy doing it any more. It turned really cold overnight, almost winter like. BRRR!!!

I don't like mondays (tell me why), I don't like mondays (tell me why). There are no reasons, we need no reasons, I'm going to shoot the... whole... day down... :D

[krullglaive]

well now todd i might would like that kind of hurricane..giggle ...looks good...maybe i need some of those hurricanes to get through the next hurricane..,,yup yup

gnarley .. i like that color bet it looks nice...and i too do not like mondays ...i know not why ..i think monday was made to dislike ..hehehe
winter like wow that would be great....* sips hot chocolate and dreams of cold weather *

[gnarley]

.. i like that color bet it looks nice...and i too do not like mondays ...i know not why ..i think monday was made to dislike ..hehehe
winter like wow that would be great....* sips hot chocolate and dreams of cold weather *

Just in case you didn't pick up on it... I quoted and/or butchered :D the song "I don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats. :cool: I wouldn't mind the cold weather so much if it didn't come out of nowhere. Hot chocolate sounds good....

[todd philip]

anybody recall this

http://indyprops.com/pp-tohthanger1.jpg

[krullglaive]

was that you gnarley i heard singing in the background...i don't like mondays (tell me why).??.... sorry i just thought you were drunk on chocolate milk... didn't want to draw attention to it. :D ...hehe

:omg: i am leaving todds question to you gnarley...yup its yours......

[gnarley]

anybody recall this

http://indyprops.com/pp-tohthanger1.jpg

The first time I saw Toht with this in Raiders, I tought it was some type of weapon or torture device, :) until he assembled it.

You should be thankful that you can't here me sing.... or your ears would bleed. ;) :D

[flukeman]

I'm back! Hey everyone :) Glad to hear the news about the non-hurricane.

*pours herself a Shirley Temple*

Yum, these are good krull :)

[krullglaive]

yes flukeman, gnarley got it for me...i like it .. i think i will get another * gets another shirley temple and decides to beg gnarley to sing for us*...gnarley ...will you sing for us ...i know you are just trying to act like you cant sing.. hmmm maybe a ballad about indy ...lol..that would be good..* gets seat in front of stage*...i am ready gnarley
thanks too for answering todds question yup ...very interesting indeed....

[gnarley]

*buys both krull and flukeman Shirley Temples*

Hmmm... I can carry on, carry over, carry under, cash and carry, Cary Grant, Jim Carrey, Cary Elwes, carry me off to St. Louis, carry a gun but I can't carry a tune. :D

Carry on my wayward son, there will be peace when you are done......

[krullglaive]

giggles ..*claps and whistles * more...more... gnarley we know you can sing now...yup .....you make me smile....

thanks for the shirley temple too ..*sips drink waiting for next song *

you know alot of music.. why dont you post in music.?..you are good.....

[gnarley]

I don't post very often there because I don't listen to any new songs and haven't bought a CD in almost a year. I'm also trying not to spend all night on these boards. :D

And for those who don't know, that "carry on" joke was borrowed from M*A*S*H and the song was by Kansas.

[krullglaive]

i knew it was kansas ..can you believe i knew something ..i amazed myself...i post old and new songs ...i never post the cds i buy ..they are mostly modern classical ...yup boring to most....giggle ... the ones i do post i dont care if they like them or not..hehe..i dont post in many places ... i just post what i like.......you are nice to post with me then ..thank you
*gets a drink and gnarley another chocolate milk* i wonder if todd is going to post some more indy stuff...

[gnarley]

i knew it was kansas ..can you believe i knew something ..i amazed myself...i post old and new songs ...i never post the cds i buy ..they are mostly modern classical ...yup boring to most....giggle ... the ones i do post i dont care if they like them or not..hehe..i dont post in many places ... i just post what i like.......you are nice to post with me then ..thank you
*gets a drink and gnarley another chocolate milk* i wonder if todd is going to post some more indy stuff...

I didn't know if you guys knew whether it was Kansas or not. The only thing close to a classical album I ever purchased was the original soundtrack to Star Wars (*ahem* on vinyl *ahem*) and on side B was the score to 2001:a Space Odessey. Right now I have Credence Clearwater Revival: 20 Greatest Hits in my CD player and now I've only been watching the VH-1 Classics channel on TV. My love for new music slowly died after the 90's ended.

[todd philip]

Cheese please, and some beer!

[cerealkiller182]

what do people think about Indy 4. Should they do it? I fthey do shud they recast Indy? Harrison ford is getting old. I personally think that Huhg Jackman could do it but i still dont think they shud do it. They missed there chance to do it. The fugitive is prolly the point of no return.

[todd philip]

ARE YOU NUTS

Harrison is not to old at all! Look at sean connery, he's in his seventies and stilll making action pictures, why cant ford?

[krullglaive]

i agree with todd and not hugh jackman ( wasnt he in a broadway play?) whew ...

gnarley ..i like your kind of music as well ..i really do listen to almost any kind except nasty and extremely obnoxious.... you have a new sig.? i like it....

*goes to get platter of cheese and crackers * where are they anyway.........

[flukeman]

No no no, Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones and that's it. I wouldn't want anybody else.

*finds a platter of cheese*

Is this what you were looking for krull?

[krullglaive]

thank you flukeman ..now we can all have cheese and crackers and wait for gnarley's comment on the subject.....how about it ,gnarley Harrison Ford still?...did you say yes?

[gnarley]

what do people think about Indy 4. Should they do it? I fthey do shud they recast Indy? Harrison ford is getting old. I personally think that Huhg Jackman could do it but i still dont think they shud do it. They missed there chance to do it. The fugitive is prolly the point of no return.

I'd rather they not make it but then I'm curious to see what the movie will be like, if made. River Phoenix showed that he could be a very good Indy (although a young one), so it is possible to replace Ford. While I do think Ford is getting too old for the role, I'm more worried about his health. He injured his knee on the Fugitive and he might not be able to perform Indy style stunts anymore. I never gave much thought on who could replace Ford, so I'll have to think about it some more but I'm leaning towards ending the series when Ford calls it quits.

Mmmm... cheeeese :)

Krull, I changed my sig, avatar, profile and custom title to a Futurama theme. It's one of my favourite shows. The quotes in my sig are from the episode "Roswell That Ends Well" but if you watch the show then you already know this. :D

Today I listened to Pearl Jam's live CD "Live on Two Legs", which is a great disc. The last song (a cover of Neil Young's "F**cking Up") skips badly. :( I love all 4 of the major Seattle "Grunge" bands.

[todd philip]

he doesnt have to do stunts, thats what stunt men and cgi is for!

[gnarley]

But he did a lot of his own stunts in the Indy trilogy, including being dragged behind the truck during the desert truck chase in Raiders. Movie companies are relying too heavily on CGI, which the Indy movies never used. When you use the actor instead of stuntmen, there's an added level of believability. That being said, Ford wasn't fighting on the conveyor belt in TOD, Harrison had a back injury so a Stuntman was used. I still prefer the stunts and effects be done the same way as before.

[todd philip]

i want it to made the same way as before, but if cgi was avalible back when indy was made you knew for sure that they would of used it, and you knew for sure that they will use some cgi in indy 4.

[flukeman]

He has gotten pretty banged up through his movie career. If they do make Indy 4 (I don't want them to) it will just be up to him as for what he can handle. Then they can bring in Vic Armstrong :)

*nibbles cheese*

[krullglaive]

*goes to jukebox picks..Pearl Jam--Indifference....sits in back and listens to conversation about indy......*

*nibbles on cheese and mind wanders to new hurricane coming *
*decides to get a glass of wine*

[gnarley]

i want it to made the same way as before, but if cgi was avalible back when indy was made you knew for sure that they would of used it, and you knew for sure that they will use some cgi in indy 4.

The effects back then were excellent and they still hold up well, while CGI can look too obviously animated and is overused. Practical effects shouldn't be abandoned completely. I think Spielberg and Lucas will keep the CGI to a bare minimum in Indy 4, practical effects seem to fit the style of movie serials better.

... I will stare the sun down, til my eeeeyes go blind....... :cool:

That's a great song, krull. Today I listened to the entire 3 disc live PJ CD recorded in Seattle a couple of years ago. Great band. :)

*orders more drinks and cheese for everyone*

[todd philip]

I Like Cheese

[krullglaive]

yup. i like Pearl Jam, gnarley and todd i like cheese too ..do you like cheese with fruit? *runs to get crackers and fruit* thanks gnarley for the drinks and cheese ...put another song on jukebox ..let's live it up before i go through another storm...

[todd philip]

cheese and fruit together! no

[krullglaive]

no fruit like apple and cheese ...ok todd ..you dont have to eat it..* walks away pouting*..maybe the others like it ..

[todd philip]

i like salty stuff with cheese, like olives, pickles, crackers, mustard, stuff like that!

[gnarley]

I don't mind fruit and cheese, just not together.

Will you be needing another keg to help you through the next hurricane? Maybe you could use another stool.

*wonders if Shirley Temples come in kegs or if krull needs something stronger*

[flukeman]

What's best is if you bake brie, then drizzle it with honey and almonds, and then eat with French bread and fruit. Yum! :)

*looks around*

No? OK then, more for me :)

[gnarley]

Something that tastes good but is simple to make is sliced bananas and strawberries mixed together in a bowl. Another great dessert with fruit is cornstarch pudding. You could either mix the fruit in while cooking it or put sliced fruit pieces layered in your bowl and then add the pudding. :) :)

[krullglaive]

yum i want all of it..*gathers up food * this will be good for the hurricane
and gnarley thanks for the keg... another stool.. you are furnishing my kitchen nicely i have never had such good looking stools... ok this time ..i find a what to haul this out ..oh no i dont know ..i might have to carry it again...i will go ask someone what it is...........if my power goes off for as long as they think i will miss all of you ..i hope i dont have to stay away ..this is suppose to be worse than frances ....* walks out with head down*

[todd philip]

yum

[gnarley]

Take good care krull and come back safe and sound. I'll buy you a drink when you return.

[krullglaive]

i am back gnarley ,......yaaaaaay * does the dance of joy* ......how are you...i missed you ....hey everyone........

[flukeman]

Hey krull, you're back! We all missed you - hope you're doing well.

*passes krull a cup of hot cocoa*

[krullglaive]

thank you flukeman i am soooo happy to be back ..is gnarley ok? is california having earthquakes? ..i hope he is ok...you ok?....i missed all of you....

[gnarley]

Welcome back, missed you too. I'm fine and no earthquakes yet... wait a min... false alarm, a train was going by. :D

*buys krull a big drink*

Did you have a lot of mess to clean up and do you need another stool?

[krullglaive]

i was worried ..i am glad you are ok...you need to watch out for those trains though..
thanks for the drink.* sips drink*.. i have had alot to clean ..a big oak tree fell on my neighbors house and a pine tree cracked and half fell on my fence ... across the street another tree fell and huge limbs are everywhere ..it was bad . .. i dont want anymore now..i have had enough
oh no i just heard you might have one in the next 7 days..oh no...i get a break and now you...oh i hope not...i better get you drink or a stool....*runs to find chocolate milk*...hope you will be ok...

[gnarley]

The mess could have been a lot worse for you, the tree could have fallen on your place or YOU!!!

I can't escape the trains, the tracks are right across the street from me (hopefully I'm not on the wrong side :D ) and the conductors blast the train's horns every night at the same time, like clockwork. The also screech the brakes for a long period of time making a godawful sound.

[krullglaive]

you are funny ..hopefully you arent on the wrong side of the tracks ...are you teasing me...do you really live by a train and does all that noise happen if so poor gnarley..you need ear plugs. * runs to find ear plugs*..how can you sleep? do you have one of those machines that makes whale sounds while you sleep ...that could drowned out the train sounds ..hehe ...

[gnarley]

It's true, the train tracks are on the other side of the Highway (about 50 ft.) directly across from me. You get used to the noise eventually. I went to my brother's place and it was so quiet, I couldn't believe it. Mostly they are freight trains, though once a passenger train went by. There was even a Ringling Bros/Barnum & Bailey Circus train that came through my town, didn't see any animals but there were passenger cars, and storage containers.

[krullglaive]

so.... gnarley, if you get tired of your life you good jump on the train and be a hobo or better yet a person in the circus ...do you have an act ? hehe... any earthquakes there ?....still hearing about them on the news .....
looks like it is just us again gnarley ...*looks around * hello.. hello ..yup just us
gnarley.. have you ever just looked at the train and thought wouldnt it be nice to get on that train and never look back.....hehe.. well it is an idea.....

[gnarley]

There was a 6.0 quake up near S.F. the other day but I didn't feel it.

Hmmm, a hobo's life for me...... I would head north to Alaska while fighting off other hoboes and train Conductors, I'd barely eat til I got there and suffer through freezing cold nights. It would take me about a month to get there then I would win enough money playing cards to buy a cabin and a gold claim. I would then spend months panning for gold in an icy stream (or river) while fighting off bears and bandits, with the help of my half dog/half wolf companion... wait... nevermind... I'm thinking partly of the movie White Fang... :D

*goes to jukebox and selects Kenny Rogers' The Gambler*

You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to run........

[krullglaive]

hehehe ..you are funny..i want to go to alaska ..i always wanted to live there but that way.... hmmm nope..... hobo's life is not for me.....

white fang ..good movie ...kinda sad though

are you a gambler? you play poker? are you worried about the earthquakes?..enough questions?
*sips drink waits for an answer ...hmmm might be here all night and day ..*lays head on table to wait*

[gnarley]

*taps krull gently on the shoulder to wake her up*

I've been to Vegas a few times but won $230 on a slot only once, I've also been to Indian Casinos where I won a little here and there but only at Bingo. I've grown tired of the one-arm bandits, though they can be fun to play. The Addams Family, Monopoly and Wheel of Fortune are the most fun. I don't play poker, don't have luck when it comes to money and there's no point to worrying about quakes. Hoboes on the other hand.....

[krullglaive]

i have travelled alot but never been to Vegas or California.. i am not a gambler... i played a few slot machines on ships but i got tired of that ..i thought it was boring...

i have been keeping up with the news ..i am worried about earthquakes ..i hope you stay safe... i think i have seen my last hurricane for the season ...i hope anyway

and hoboes are not for me...nope..they are scarey ...* sips drink and thinks .......but decides that just hurts the brain so forgets it and just keeps drinking instead*

[gnarley]

i have travelled alot but never been to Vegas or California.. i am not a gambler... i played a few slot machines on ships but i got tired of that ..i thought it was boring...

I used to play a lot of free online slot games but I got very bored with them. It was basically click, spin, click, spin.... so now I play other games. I also gave up on one site because of the way people were acting, like they were still in Jr. High. A bunch of married people fighting with other players over each other. Drove me nuts.

Did you go on a cruise? How was it? Did you meet Isaac and Gopher? :D

[krullglaive]

no i never did meet them ...that was actually the only reason i was travelling. lol.. i have been on a few cruises...i went on a cruise to all the new england states and down the st lawerence to canada ....to the bahamas and the carribean...to greece and turkey ... i liked the canada one the best.. lol...seems like one more but it must not have been memorabale... i went to italy as well and from venice i took a short curise.. that was nice... ..do you like to travel?.... out of all that nothing to me is as nice as the smokey mountains ... we really do have beautiful places here in our own country....you still ok? no earthquakes?...*sips drink thinking it has been a day *

[gnarley]

I'm too busy with my job to travel. Wow!! You've been all over the world, looks like you could give Indy a run for his money as a world traveller. Did you have an adventures like he had? The only other country I've been to was Canada, and it was beautiful. I think I'd like to move there one day.

[krullglaive]

i would like to live there too..i wasnt quite like indy ... i tried to dress like him but carrying the whip didnt give the impression i was going for lol...decided to look like a lady and act like one too..i didnt swing on one chandllier or jump on and run over all the tables .. i didnt even dive out the window turn twist and run to ............the buffet...lol... come to think of it maybe my trips werent very exciting... i need to go on all of them again and try indy's way

so how are you anyway? * gets gnarley a chocolate milk and myself ....hmm.. tonight the real thing *

[gnarley]

Thanks for the drink, it's delicious.

*buys krull a can of Slurm* Try some of this, you'll like it.

I'm good and you? Today I did some cleaning then I took a walk down to the Hardware store to have a key made and then headed to the Public Utility building to pay my water bill. Now my feet are a little sore... I have flat feet, which didn't help but I need the excercise.

[krullglaive]

ok ..gnarley what is this i am drinking? ...has something to do with futurama..... a carbonated beverage ..hmmmmm giggle... i need to watch this show ...

i am doing ok..well...i guess i am ...

it sounds like you stay really busy ..i feel guilty i just work here slow and steady .. kinda like the turtle.... lol...

*sips beverage* hmmmm...nice

[gnarley]

*wonders if I should tell krull what it really is.... hmmm ...* :D

What kind of work do you do?

[krullglaive]

you better tell me......shame on you ...*starts spitting it out...not very lady like at all...* gnarley !!!!.... you didnt let me taste something nasty ........Whew...

i put it in the basement here... you must be taking it ..i wont drink it now that gnarley told me... ...yuck

[gnarley]

Welcome to the Ravenwood, glsspder, would you like a can of Slurm? It's very good. ;):D

*brings krull a dozen red roses and a pitcher of water*
Do you forgive me? Still friends? *flashes puppy dog eyes*

What's funny is that in the episode after Fry discovers the truth about Slurm, he still drinks it and prevents the truth from coming out. I can see why too, it tastes great. :)

[krullglaive]

well i don't know ..*looks at beautiful roses * well maybe ..*sees puppy dog eyes * ...oooh ..ok but no more drinks like that ... yuck...* drinks some water and hopes gnarley didnt put something in it*........so you like the way it taste huh? ..i have many cases for you in the basement..*runs to get gnarley several cans to drink* here gnarley.. have your new favorite drink...come sit with me and my flowers .. i want to see you drink it...hehehehe.... yup... taste good huh? drink up gnarley ..giggles....yup

[gnarley]

*downs a keg of Slurm* Mmm Mmmm.... now I'm hungry.

*waitress comes over*
Mildred: "What'll you folks have today?"
gnarley: "I'll have the soylent green with a slice of soylent orange and some soylent coleslaw."
Mildred: "Pardon?"
krullglaive: "It's the 20th century, gnarley."
gnarley: "Oh right, I'll have a croque miseur, the paella, two mutton pills and a stein of mead."
krullglaive: "I'll just have a small injection of femi-slim."
Mildred: "Uh... 2 chili dogs coming up."
:D

This is from my favourite episode, "Roswell That Ends Well" , which is where I got my sig.

[krullglaive]

hehehehe ..the injection of what ..i wasnt so sure about that but chili dog.. i say yum to that... there isnt something in that chili dog is there gnarley..*watches gnarley take a bite first* not that i dont trust you.. you drank a whole keg of that tail end liquid and ate a chli dog ...lol... shame on me for what i am thinking.... but it is the first laugh i have had this week.. i think .....thanks gnarley....

[gnarley]

The chili dog was quite good and I'm thinking Femi-slim is like Slim-fast (not that you need it :)). I changed the characters Professor Farnsworth and Leela to ours and I'm glad you had a good laugh. Oh, in case you didn't notice, I did answer you to as what I do for work.

[krullglaive]

slim fast ...yuck ...and.. i dont need it..*runs to look in mirror*... that gnarley....
it was funny .. and i did notice i just didnt know if you wanted me to say anything here ...you know in the open....*looks around to see if anyone is looking or listening *..
decides to just drink water and reaches into her pocket pulls out her favorite candy bar and throws it into the garbage can hmmm slim fast i bet gnarley thinks...i am not..* leaves the bar in a huff .......yells back to gnarley *..i saw you ..put that candy bar back in the garbage.......

[gnarley]

Too late *gnarley says with mouth covered in chocolate* :funny:

I don't want to say too much about my work, just it takes up most of my day and nights. It's the reason I'm tired most of the time and why I don't get out much.

*orders drinks then proceeds to lick the chocolate off his fingers* :D

[krullglaive]

GNARLEY....that was mine.... ok i threw it away but i told you not to.... oh well i wont tell you what it really was ... :D

most of my work is right here on computer and since i can work my own hours ....i might be on any time ....( if you do want to talk gnarley there is always pm)

*goes to bar and gets drink and sneaks a bite of really good chocolate while gnarley is not here*.................i can have it ..

[gnarley]

:eek: oh well.. it tasted good. :)

So you work from home... no wonder you have such a high post count. :D I live where I work too, as if you couldn't guess.
*wonders how krull gets any work done, hmmm*:rolleyes:
And I see you are on invisible mode.* also wonders if she can project force fields and has blonde hair?*

[krullglaive]

*hands on hips* i am not posting all the time and i get all my work done and i am very good at it...smarty pants....... i just take breaks ...giggle ..i am not interested in post counts and dont even look at them ....i really dont know mine...i just ...well i just have friends...ok i just like posting in certain places... like here...

hehehe so you see i hide ... would like to know what krull looks like huh huh ..well should i tell you ...* sips drink* i will tell you only what you mentioned..giggle ..it is not blonde sorry..it is long ,straight, auburn hair...*looks at force field button* .ok .and blue eyes ..there :D

[gnarley]

:D

I take it that you didn't get my Fantasic Four joke, Sue Reed can turn invisible at will and can project force fields, plus she has blonde hair. :) My hair is kind of like Han Solo's from the Star Wars movies. Dark brown but not too long or short.

*wonders if krull looks like her avatar and if she's animated?*:rolleyes: :D

[todd philip]

hows everyone doing!

[krullglaive]

giggle still wondering huh? ok my avatar was picked out for me in an animated way it does look like me and maybe shows my personality somewhat ..quiet ..if she looked up with blue eyes ..kinda me...that is why i never change avy i feel she is krull- me....sorry missed the joke ..thought you only liked blondes ..hehe...

hey when i asked you if you were old enough to drink you said you had gray hair...what... do you dye your hair, gnarley? i dont.... bet you want me too---BLONDE

HEY Todd ...i am fine ..you should come here more often... hope you are fine too

[gnarley]

Hi Todd.

Everyone in my family starts turning grey at an early age. Had my first grey hair at 21. :( Haven't dyed my hair yet. Hmmm.... maybe jet black. Or maybe... green?:D You should keep your avatar, I like it and it seems to suit you very well. What's it from? I keep changing mine partly because I haven't found one to keep permamently, also I like to change things every now and then.

[krullglaive]

green hair gnarley...wow you would be making a statement ...*sips drink and wonders if gnarley would look good with green hair * ..hmmm
krull is relena --gundam wing ..she is me... i looked at her again today ..i really like her ..i would change often too if she didnt seem to favor me .. maybe one day i will change her to something really silly...
it is nice of you to honor mr.reeve ... such sadness ..

hey again todd...

needs to cheer this bar up *goes to jukebox and plays woo hoo--the 5 6 7 8s * big smile *

[gnarley]

She must be from some kind of anime series or movie, I'm not too familiar with that art form. Though I did watch Star Blazers and Speed Racer when I was younger but that's about it.

I've loved Mr. Reeve's work since I first watched the original Superman movie. He brought so much humanity, dignity, compassion and depth to the character. His performance is the best representation of Superman ever and he was so believable in the role. He always came across as an outstanding human being and I'm saddened by his loss. He's the first celebrity since Kurt Cobain to make me feel this way at their passing.

I only know the 5,6,7,8's from the Kill Bill movies. Do you know their music a lot?

[krullglaive]

yes she is ..i really dont know much about anime but i love the art ..she is so perfect for me...i have other pics of her too... i really only think of her as krull ...

i agree.. he was an outstanding role model and will continue to be .. it is very sad

i only have heard the 5 6 7 8s in this one song ..i just played it because it sounds happy and silly ..kinda like i feel most of the time... are you a happy silly type? do you giggle or roll with laughter?...guess which i do..* sips drink and holds back a giggle or laugh*

[gnarley]

Doesn't she ever get cold standing in the wind like that all the time? :D

For the most part I'm a happy silly kind of person I guess but not a giggler. Occasionally you'll find me rolling on the floor laughing. The last few days I've been listening to CCR alot. *gets up and plays Proud Mary on the juke box*

"Took a job in the city... working for the man every night and day...... The only time I ever seen the good side of the city was on the deck of a Riverboat Queen.... Big Wheels keep on turnin.. Proud Mary keep on burnin.......rollin...rollin on the river........"

[krullglaive]

it is very hot here gnarley that is a fan blowing her hair lol...i do wish i could cut the speed down but i guess it is ok..

rollin rollin ..rollin on the river ..i live near a river .. guess you dont have any rivers where you are... do you have to go out and search for a watering hole ..with a stick... hehe... maybe where you live would be a good setting for indy .. who knows he could be there right now..

hope you have a great weekend ...doing anything special??

hey todd and flukeman wherever you are...

[gnarley]

No rivers, just a highway, train tracks and an ocean of sand and dirt. We're hooked up to city water, which you can only drink if it's filtered. We have what's referred to as hard water, it's very corrosive to the plumbing. As for the weekend, I'll be digging up weeds and sagebrush because it's too close to the building. It's a fire hazard. Are you doing anything interesting?

I was looking up krullglaive in yahoo search last night and only one reply came up. Your screen name here and these boards.

[todd philip]

Hi folks

[krullglaive]

HIYA Todd ..nice to see you !!!

Gnarley.. Krull is a movie and the glaive is a weapon so maybe i am an original very feminine krullglaive lol .. i didnt know it would show up .. i think i will look... bet it said nothing at all ...hehehe .. i know it is so masculine sounding and not at all pretty but she is me now ..so i think of me as krull... sometimes i think a little more girlish might be nice..oh well
why did you go with gnarley not that that doesnt sound handsome... giggle
*sips drink and wishes she could stay in the bar and not go shopping* got to go ...i have bday presents to buy ...byeeeeeeeeeeeee

[gnarley]

Is the krull you're talking about a fantasy movie, where the main character has a 5 bladed weapon that he can throw like a boomerang and he fights a giant spider? I saw this movie in the theaters a long time ago. I just don't remember too much about it? The way you were talking, I thought the girl in your avatar was called krull. I went with gnarley because I couldn't think of anything better but I like it.

[krullglaive]

yes it is ...giggle... i talk like her name is krull because that is who she is in avy and she has become krull ..me as an idenity...i would hate to change her now...she is really relena..

i like your name too ..unusual but good.... *sips drink* are you having a great weekend? seen indy lately?

[gnarley]

You should keep her, she seems to suit you very well. My name has turned out to be pretty common on the net, and I thought I was being creative and different by adding the "e". It didn't help though because other people did the same thing. ;) :)

My weekends ok, how's your's? And no, I haven't seen Indy lately.

[gnarley]

Hi Batman-max, welcome to the Ravenwood.

It actually rained overnight here for the first time in months and then the power went out for close to three hours. Otherwise it was a quiet boring day. I'm not worried about the bar burning down, just the Health Inspecter who could close us down, then what would we do? :( :D

[twaas1]

could i have a drink

[krullglaive]

sure you can what would you like..it is nice to have people come in... * waiting to pour twaas a drink* ..i am not sure if the health inspector is coming or not... i think todd will have to check that gnarley ...

[twaas1]

Pour me a drink and let the beer flow like wine

[gnarley]

Welcome to the Ravenwood twaas1.

Indy has been known to drop in every now and then, and I have it on good authority that he could be here on wednesday. ;):)

Thanks for the drink but I think I'll have hot chocolate instead. It rained all day and I haven't lit the heater yet.

[krullglaive]

WEDNESDAY.....gnarley are sure its wednesday... my luck..... *shakes head in disbelief * why me i seem to always miss him... i have never seen him once in this bar *pours gnarley hot chocolate * I have notice too there doesnt seem to be a bartender present..EVER........gnarley this is a bar right?..it must be ...there is plenty to drink.....*pours drink for herself and sits at her usually back table ...depressed about wednesday..*

[glsspder]

Who's buying?

[krullglaive]

[glsspder]

Hell of a time, i need a strong drink and a couple shots to chase it whith after this weekend, got no rest and it was a constant go it felt like fromt he drive up the the drive home. I tried calling someone but her phone was busy, or she would not pick up the phone :P

[krullglaive]

I'm not 100% positive that he'll be here then but it sure looks like it. I think the bartender/owner is travelling with Indy but Mildred is still here. ;)... Mmmm... this hot chocolate is good. Anybody else want one?

[twaas1]

I will have one

[gnarley]

I will have one
Here you go, enjoy. * hands twaas a cup of hot chocolate*

*Just then Indy stumbles in the door, orders a drink and crashes in a booth at the back of the bar... looks around and says hi and tells everyone how tired he is... then he slowly falls asleep while waiting for krull...*
