| MattH | Hiya CM |
| Elais | hiyas Matt |
| Elais | tv seems to suck tonight |
| MattH | Heh - I haven't watched TV in over a month. |
| MattH | Did you know today was Joss Whedon's 40th birthday? |
| Elais | yup |
| MattH | Just found out on Buffy.nu |
| Elais | I would like to comment that he looks good for his age |
| Elais | but I never found Joss to be all that good-looking |
| MattH | He looks good for Joss at his age |
| Elais | he needs to get out in the sun more! |
| MattH | Maybe - he looks like he'd burn as opposed to tan |
| Elais | that's tru |
| MattH | Enterprise had its budget cut in half...along with the move to Fridays I am betting that this is its last season |
| MattH | Hmmm....looks like ASH will be doing Giles' voice in the animated series. |
| Elais | knew that |
| Elais | nice to have a lot of the original cast doing the voices |
| Elais | I think this is enterprises last season too |
| MattH | So is the only one not reprising her role is SMG? |
| Elais | I never watched it myself, but the Friday Night Slot O' Doom |
| Elais | I know ASH, Alyson and Nick are coming back |
| Elais | not sure about the other characters |
| MattH | I watched...it is better than Voyager, but that is not saying anything. |
| Elais | SMG is definitely not doing the animated series |
| Elais | I kind of stopped watching Star Trek after Deep Space Nine |
| MattH | I skipped most of DS9 and Voyager.... |
| MattH | I kept comparing DS9 to Babylon 5 |
| Elais | which is not a bad comparison |
| Elais | never really watched B5, but caught eps here and there |
| MattH | It really established the seasons long plot arcs on SF shows... |
| MattH | First 4 seasons were excellent...5th was just ok |
| Elais | I've been thinking of signing up for Netflix |
| Elais | that might be a good way to get the Babylon 5 dvds |
| *** DeathIsYourArt (~Achnacarr@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3498882.sympatico.ca) has joined channel #TheSuccubusClub |
| DeathIsYourArt | Hello |
| MattH | A good idea....best to watch them in order |
| MattH | Hiya DIYA...wasn't sure you were gonna make it. |
| DeathIsYourArt | You and me both. |
| DeathIsYourArt | So, what are we talking about? |
| MattH | Hmmm Babylon 5 and the impending death of Enterprise |
| DeathIsYourArt | ahhh... did you hear the rumor that they want to make another spinoff though very different from the typical Star Trek show... takl about beating a dead horse |
| Elais | like we need another star trek |
| MattH | J. Michael Strazynski (sp) could pull it off. |
| Elais | kind of wish they take a breather from the ST universe for a while |
| MattH | Rick Berman has to go, though. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I think it would be wise of them to walk away for a while |
| DeathIsYourArt | let people miss it for a while. |
| MattH | I don't know that is needed....but they would definitely need a new creative staff. |
| MattH | Heh...I don't miss Voyager or DS9 at all... the only Star Trek I miss is the original |
| MattH | But time off wouldn't hurt |
| MattH | Just reading right now on Buffy.nu that Angel was the only one of the WB's top 7 shows that had a ratings increase... |
| * MattH sighs |
| MattH | So what was the final Golden Fang tally? |
| DeathIsYourArt | yep, Everwood and Smallville (the so-called corner stones) went down over 20% each |
| MattH | Wasn't one of the better seasons for Smallville, no. |
| DeathIsYourArt | ou mean number of votes? That is all you get, the results Kitty and Candy will announce. I sent them the hard copy today in the mail with all the proof that I didn't make them up. |
| DeathIsYourArt | The final number after teh illegal ones were taken out was 582 votes |
| MattH | That is what I meant... |
| MattH | Illegal ones? Dupes you mean? How many of those did you have? |
| DeathIsYourArt | around 40 |
| MattH | That isn't too bad |
| DeathIsYourArt | missing both names and e-mail addresses or people just hitting submit with nothing filled out etc... |
| MattH | Heh...some people just can't follow written instructions |
| DeathIsYourArt | I know... Thank the fates I am from Quebec. I had one person wirte me a paragraph in the quotes section in French |
| DeathIsYourArt | And I ask you...Since when does quote mean 3 monologues and a description of why you liked it? |
| MattH | A French quote? Now that is funny... |
| MattH | Are they going to just put the GF up on the website or discuss it on the final (whenever that is) Succubus Club? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Unfortunately there were more than one quote that had to be ignored since they were not from this season. |
| DeathIsYourArt | That depends on the amount of time they have I think. Candy never said really. They do have 3 episodes to cover on the last show though |
| Elais | voting next week, DIYA? |
| DeathIsYourArt | yep...for who I have NO idea |
| MattH | Oh....is it election time up North? |
| Elais | lucky buggers |
| Elais | we still have another five months |
| DeathIsYourArt | Well I have an idea but at the same time I will do whatever I have to to help keep the conservatives out of power |
| DeathIsYourArt | I would like another 5 nominees |
| DeathIsYourArt | anyone other than who is running |
| DeathIsYourArt | I'll vote in Celine Dion at this point, just to keep these a**holes out of power |
| MattH | Does Canada use a parlimentary system like Britain, or is the PM elected seperately? |
| Elais | Celine Dion would probably do a better job |
| DeathIsYourArt | parlimentary...unfortunately |
| MattH | More than 2 parties I see.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | yep. The fact remains that it comes down to Liberals and Conservatives anyways...which sucks. The head of the Liberals is former Bloc Quebecoius (french gimmie gimmies) and an idiot, but the conservative leader is a scary bible thumper who wants to make Canada in The "Bush" image. The NDP leader is the one that is saying what I want to hear but they will never get in power |
| Elais | did you watch the debates? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Yes... They just talked over each other and said what the other guy did wrong, not what they wanted to do to improve the situation. It was a waste of time. |
| MattH | Sounds like a typical debate |
| Elais | sounds way too familiar |
| DeathIsYourArt | On to happier subjects....Anyone see anything good on tv? Is there anything good on tv? My computer has taken over my life, so I don't know... |
| DeathIsYourArt | Did either of you watch Salem's lot? |
| Elais | Celebrity Poker Showdown |
| Elais | I tried to watch Salem's lot |
| MattH | The movie? One of my favorites.... |
| MattH | Didn't care for the book, though. |
| Elais | but just couldn't stay with it |
| Elais | Salem's Lot was just made into a tv mini-series |
| DeathIsYourArt | Harris , the one with Rob lowe that was on the other day? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Yes Elias that one |
| MattH | Oh....never heard about that one. |
| MattH | Man, I am so out of it.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | darn... I heard mixed things, I wanted an opinion I could trust |
| MattH | On cable? |
| DeathIsYourArt | TNT |
| Elais | seems like my attention span regarding tv is shorter these days |
| DeathIsYourArt | I'll just check if suprnova has it...not that my computer can take it right now but hey.. |
| Elais | have you tried torrents.co.uk? |
| MattH | They'll have a ways to go to beat the original movie. |
| Elais | I don't think I saw the original movie |
| Elais | not sure if I even read the book |
| DeathIsYourArt | not yet...but thanks Elias. Multiple places to look is always a good thing |
| Elais | Stephen King novels.... |
| Elais | they can also take a break from adapting his stuff as well |

| Elais | looking forward to TAR next month |
| DeathIsYourArt | TAR? |
| Elais | The Amazing Race |
| DeathIsYourArt | I think I will just give up on tv for now |
| MattH | I practically have... |
| Elais | you're not missing much, actually |
| DeathIsYourArt | The only time I turn it on is to watch a DVD. I have no idea what is on |
| MattH | I think the last time I watched was for the Enterprise season finale. |
| MattH | I spend most of my free time reading fanfiction. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I'm spending my time counting votes and learning a new video editing program. |
| MattH | What program? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Macromedia Studio MX. I signed up to submit a video to a LJ community. We are having trouble letting go of Spike, so we are all submiting a piece of fanfiction, art, video etc... for one day in July and August. |
| DeathIsYourArt | My day isn't until the end of August YAY! So I have plenty of time to make something good |
| MattH | Heh...I should have realized the bleached one had something to do with it... ;-) |
| DeathIsYourArt | ALWAYS |
| MattH | So what are you planning to do? |
| DeathIsYourArt | I need something to tide me over until James makes MacBeth. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I have a few ideas for what type of video I will do. |
| Elais | hmmmm |
| Elais | got a song in mind? |
| MattH | He is doing the Scottish play? I didn't know he was into Shakespeare. |
| DeathIsYourArt | Very funny Harris |
| MattH | Ummm...that wasn't a joke.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | I might make more than one video if I turn out to be any good at this. I know that at the very least I am going to make a vid of his story in chronological order. |
| Elais | that's a good way to go |
| Elais | I haven't seen many vids, but I've liked them |
| DeathIsYourArt | I have a list of songs that are being narrowed down now. I'll post a link once I finish them...actualyl once I have my day. The rule of the community is it has to be work that was not posted anywhere before your day. All new work, nothing old |
| Elais | how many on your list? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Oh Elias, I could recommend some good ones. There are some great ones out there! |
| DeathIsYourArt | there are 10 songs on the list now. I'm not telling though |
| Elais | I was half-tempted to go to the vividcon |
| DeathIsYourArt | It is all a surprise and some of the girls in the group read this transcript for some unkknown reason |
| DeathIsYourArt | If you have any suggestions for songs I am all ears...well eyes |
| DeathIsYourArt | There is a vividcon? I did not know that |
| Elais | hang on a sec |
| MattH | For some reason "Man on the Silver Mountain" popped into my head. |
| MattH | "One Tin Solder" also... |
| Elais | http://www.vividcon.com/ |
| DeathIsYourArt | And Harris..in case you didn't actually knwo and were not pulling my leg there. James has done years of Shakespeare and MacBeth was actually the last play he did before he moved to L.A. He just got the money to make a movie version |
| DeathIsYourArt | He will be writing the screen play, producing and staring. No word on the director yet. However, it may take upwards of three years before we see the final product |
| Elais | that JM is into Shakespeare is extremely well-known |
| MattH | I didn't know... |
| MattH | Or more likely, I forgot.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | I just looked at the vividcon site...why oh why do I not have my license??? |
| DeathIsYourArt | that would have been kind of interesting |
| MattH | License? Driver's license? |
| DeathIsYourArt | yep... I never got around to getting it. I either didn't ahve the money or the time. Always one or the other |
| MattH | I understand...I didn't get my license until I was 33 |
| Elais | got my license around 15 or 16 |
| Elais | always seems odd to meet someone who doesn't have a license or has never driven a car |
| DeathIsYourArt | I've driven a Zambonie.... |
| MattH | I got that a lot...people asked me how I survived in LA without a car |
| DeathIsYourArt | In Montreal it is really easy to get around without a car, sometimes easier than if you had one. And my mother refuses to teach me, and my father never got a Canadian drivers license when he immigrated from Scotland |
| DeathIsYourArt | hmmmm I just got a happy thought *JM with a Scottish accent* ...stupid 3 year wait |
| Elais | not easy at all to get around without a car around here |
| MattH | Welll...it gives time for his hair to grow back |
| Elais | his hair has already grown back |
| Elais | JM is keeping it short |
| DeathIsYourArt | joss just better hurry up with Ripper and the Spike movie. 3 years is far too long to wait for ME related stuff |
| MattH | Spike movie? What Spike movie? |
| DeathIsYourArt | James and joss have been talking about it. The money hasn't been locked down yet though |
| MattH | The Firefly film is set for April 05...doubt we will see another film before then. |
| DeathIsYourArt | Just for the fun of it (I stumped a couple of people with this one today): How many slayers has Spike faught - either briefly or to the death? (my version of Harris/Elias torture) |
| DeathIsYourArt | Take a guess :> |
| MattH | 5 |
| DeathIsYourArt | Elias, what do you say? |
| MattH | Not counting the ones in that silly book |
| DeathIsYourArt | Just on the show |
| DeathIsYourArt | And which silly book? |
| MattH | Buffy, Faith, the two he killed and the nutso slayer |
| MattH | Pretty Maids All In A Row |
| DeathIsYourArt | oh, I haven't read that yet |
| DeathIsYourArt | I am talking about the show anyways |
| Elais | oops, sorry |
| MattH | I disliked most of the Buffy novels... they are like the Star Trek novels...too constrained |
| DeathIsYourArt | And that would be wrong anyways since Giles said that he only faught 2 slayers since he was turned in School hard |
| MattH | Giles thought he was over 200 also... |
| DeathIsYourArt | Come on Elias...answer please!! |
| Elais | do we count the potentials? |
| DeathIsYourArt | No barely 200 is what Giles said |
| DeathIsYourArt | no, they ar not full slayers |
| Elais | 6 |
| DeathIsYourArt | Correct Elias |
| *** FiatLux (Fiat@1Cust176.tnt1.memphis3.tn.da.uu.net) has joined channel #thesuccubusclub |
| DeathIsYourArt | Harris you forgot Kendra in "what's my line" |
| FiatLux | Hey y'all |
| MattH | Since Spike is about 126, Giles' info about him is clearly lacking |
| MattH | Hiya Fiat |
| DeathIsYourArt | Hi Fait |
| MattH | DIYA - so I did |
| FiatLux | Thought I'd stop by, I saw part of The Harvest on FX tonight and got a little nostalgic |
| FiatLux | Ah, the good old days |
| Elais | yup, back to the beginning |
| Elais | it was nice seeing Chosen followed by Welcome to the Hellmouth |
| DeathIsYourArt | I broke out the first season the other day too... boy was that weird. I got all giddy too |
| FiatLux | dorky Xander, nerdy Willow, evil vampires, good times |
| DeathIsYourArt | Ya... I don't think the show started to be more in depth than that until "Lie to me" |
| * MattH sniffs... |
| DeathIsYourArt | *Hugs matt |
| MattH | Don't know about that .... "Prophecy Girl" comes to mind or "Never Kill A Boy On The First Date" |
| DeathIsYourArt | ya Prophecy Girl was Wonderful, but I didn't feel the underlining momentum until Lie to me...that is just me though |
| MattH | Both seemed pretty deep to me. |
| MattH | Nightmares also...the real monster being an ordinary person. |
| FiatLux | I didn't really start watching till the end of Season 2 so I was little lost at first but it made me want to keep watching |
| MattH | I saw the original episode and was hooked from when Darla turned around and bit the guy ...I so wasn't expecting that |
| MattH | So for me it was (ducks)...."Love At First Bite" |
| Elais | lol |
| DeathIsYourArt | I coincidentally started watching when School Hard aired. I was baby sitting and saw it. When the parents got home they asked what we did and told me that they had all the others up until then on tape. So I then went back and watched. I had wanted to see it, since the movie was so bad I figured the show would be something campy and at the very least worth a laugh. I just kept forgetting. |
| FiatLux | I think Halloween was the first episode I saw. It was during reruns so they showed some out of order. It took me forever to figure out why Angel was bad. |
| DeathIsYourArt | awww poor Fait |
| FiatLux | I think I looked it up on the internet before season 3 started and I was kicking myself reading all the great lines that I missed. |
| Elais | I was really late to the party |
| MattH | I hated the previews for S2...they gave away that Angel was going to go bad... |
| Elais | my first ep was Earshot |
| MattH | I was spoiler free at that time |
| DeathIsYourArt | ahhh the controvercial episode |
| MattH | Earshot...an excellent episode...that got delayed due to Columbine. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I spelled that wrong didn't I? |
| MattH | Yeah...but we don't care |
| Elais | we know what you meant |
| DeathIsYourArt | As long as I know it is wrong |
| MattH | That...and you promise to never do it again ;-) |
| DeathIsYourArt | NEVER.... promise that it |
| DeathIsYourArt | is* |
| DeathIsYourArt | now I am jinxed |
| * MattH hands DIYA a bottle of his patented anti-jinx formula |
| MattH | Guaranteed to repel bad luckons 99% of the time. |
| DeathIsYourArt | That's strong stuff *cough* |
| MattH | You were supposed to drink it! |
| MattH | Ahemm... "weren't" not "were" |
| FiatLux | http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/3451072/detail.html my friend just emailed me this and wrote "Am I wrong to think this is funny?" |
| DeathIsYourArt | Now you are jixed |
| FiatLux | He's a sick puppy. |
| MattH | Yes...you are very wrong to think it is funny... |
| * MattH chuckles over the story |
| DeathIsYourArt | ewwwww |
| FiatLux | Yeah, it's one of those, "Ew, hehe, ew, ha" |
| MattH | Suffice it to say there are a lot of weird people out there. |
| DeathIsYourArt | h my god that is so very wrong and unhygienic |
| DeathIsYourArt | I really hope he didn't "have" anything |
| FiatLux | I figure he had to work at the hotel, how else could he have gotten in? Don't these people do background checks? |
| DeathIsYourArt | For hotel staff? Of course not |
| MattH | Background checks won't necessarily find that stuff |
| MattH | Especially if he hadn't been caught before. |
| DeathIsYourArt | He might be a first time offender. he could be someone who thought that it was funny. |
| FiatLux | Well what about a box to check on the application-- Are you a perv? |
| FiatLux | That could help, right? |
| DeathIsYourArt | Sure |
| DeathIsYourArt | If he is honest |
| MattH | I worked at a place that instituted background checks on employees and we still had some nutters slip through |
| MattH | It is also possible that he wouldn't think that he is a pervert...just "different" |
| DeathIsYourArt | Or "special" |
| FiatLux | Remember, it's only kinky the first time ;) |
| DeathIsYourArt | LOL |
| Elais | I'm not clicking that link |
| FiatLux | Hee, we scared you. |
| MattH | Go ahead CM....I dare you! |
| Elais | nope |
| Elais | not clicking |
| MattH | Come on....every else did it... |
| MattH | I double-dare you! |
| Elais | I'm getting very good at saying 'just say no' |
| FiatLux | Don't you want to be cool? |
| FiatLux | Come on, we'll be your friends... |
| DeathIsYourArt | do it do it do it!!! |
| Elais | hah! |
| FiatLux | I love peer pressure |
| Elais | I mock you with my monkey pants! |
| DeathIsYourArt | * I pull down your monkey pants* |
| DeathIsYourArt | LOL |
| DeathIsYourArt | wait...that only works with guys |
| DeathIsYourArt | darn it |
| * MattH mutters..."Damn...she has been empowered by watching Buffy..." |
| FiatLux | Naked monkey, naked monkey! |
| * MattH pulls out a box of Animal Crackers, pulls out a monkey... |
| * MattH and bites its head off! |
| DeathIsYourArt | I totally read that action wrong, and ti was a lot funnier. he he he |
| DeathIsYourArt | Everyone stopped talking...did we make Elias cry or something? Poor little monkey! |
| Elais | hmm? |
| Elais | sorry... |
| Elais | I've got a couple windows open |
| DeathIsYourArt | gotcha |
| FiatLux | I don't, I have air conditioning. |
| FiatLux | Oh, you mean "computer" windows |
| DeathIsYourArt | *death squeal* |
| FiatLux | LOL |
| MattH | I was just trying to figure out how to top the last comments |
| FiatLux | Really, no one should try to go there Matt. |
| MattH | I must be out of it....I saw that comment and didn't think Computer Windows at all.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | EVER |
| DeathIsYourArt | How much sleep have you been getting Harris? |
| FiatLux | It's telephone catch up time for me, so I'm gonna get. |
| Elais | apparently not enough |
| DeathIsYourArt | okay bye bye Fait *tear* |
| MattH | I didn't sleep well last night at all |
| Elais | I gotta go myself |
| MattH | CYA Fiat |
| FiatLux | I'll try to catch you all next week. |
| *** Signoff: FiatLux ((null)) |
| DeathIsYourArt | bye Elias.... |
| Elais | *sprinkles Sandman Dust on Matt* |
| MattH | And had weird dreams...which I don't remember |
| MattH | CYA CM |
| DeathIsYourArt | guess that is the end of the night |
| *** Elais has left #thesuccubusclub |
| DeathIsYourArt | darn it...you can't say that you had weird dreams and then not remember them |
| DeathIsYourArt | It isn't fair |
| MattH | Yeah ...pretty much. |
| MattH | Some dreams I remember...most of them I don't |
| DeathIsYourArt | *grumble* Well remember them by next week okay? |
| MattH | I am considering posting them on my weblog. |
| DeathIsYourArt | okay then! |
| DeathIsYourArt | I'll keep checking for the update |
| DeathIsYourArt | See you next week Matt. |
