| MattH | Hiya DIYA |
| DeathIsYourArt | Hi Matt! How are you? |
| MattH | Pretty good...wondering if anyone was going to show. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I think most people are running out of chit chat these days |
| MattH | Does not surprise...they used it all up in the mailing list. |
| DeathIsYourArt | ya, lets not go there. I'm okay with a discussion, no matter how far apart the opinions. However, when people start hiding insults with happy faces and sarcasm, I've had enough. Too many people just can't take that everyone doesn't rush to agree with them |
| MattH | Heh...I saw the topic of the discussion and deleted about 35 messages unread. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I just hope everyone gets over the need to have the last word and lets it go |
| MattH | What? Someone in a flame war just letting it go...I can't believe that will happen |
| DeathIsYourArt | A friend of mine is putting together a little project and needs a picture of me by tonight. I don't think I haev taken a decent pic since I was 5 and those that are pretty good, either don't scan well, or I am clad in some kind of revealing hallowe'en costume |
| DeathIsYourArt | ya I know, flamming doesn't go away easy, however, I was hoping that people would use a little more common sense on this list |
| DeathIsYourArt | In the beginning the discussion was just people stating how they saw season 6, then it mutated from there and I stopped reading |
| MattH | Yeah..I liked Season 6...doesn't mean other people should or shouldn't. |
| DeathIsYourArt | Random grumble: My scanner sucks |
| DeathIsYourArt | So what are you up to? |
| MattH | Heh...I don't have a scanner...by definition that sucks worse ;-) |

| redeem147 | Hey guys. Thought I'd do a quick drop in before bed. |
| MattH | Hiya...name change there? |
| MattH | We were just discussing flame wars, season 6 and scanners. |
| redeem147 | Colleen |
| MattH | I gathered that from the login, but wasn't sure... |
| redeem147 | I used it in writercon chat, cause it's my lj name, and didn't change back |
| MattH | So what is happening on your end of the world? |
| redeem147 | I'm getting ready to leave for writercon tomorrow morning. Can't really concentrate on anything else |
| DeathIsYourArt | Ohhh you have an LJ...found YOU |
| redeem147 | Yes'm |
| redeem147 | Fics and everything |
| redeem147 | Spike related, mostly, oddly enough |
| redeem147 | Fun couple of days on the list, eh? |
| DeathIsYourArt | LOL |
| MattH | Lot of traffic, which I just deleted unread. |
| redeem147 | Ah, but my posts are funny |
| redeem147 | At least, I think so :) |
| MattH | Yeah...I just don't have a dog in this fight...I am over BTVS flamewars just as BTVS is over |
| DeathIsYourArt | think the sarcasm and humor was lost on some. Which is fine. I just didn't appreciate where it ended up going and I left |
| redeem147 | I wouldn't call it a flame war, really |
| redeem147 | Mostly just a silly discussion. |
| redeem147 | Of course, I'm right ;) |
| DeathIsYourArt | LOL |
| redeem147 | You're post was excellent, btw death |
| MattH | Of course you're right |
| DeathIsYourArt | Thank you |
| * MattH humors Colleen |
| redeem147 | I'm Canadian. You have to humour me |
| DeathIsYourArt | I don't mind real discussion, just don't ignore facts, and if you still see it differently, fine! You have that right. Just don't get mad when I don't come over to your side is all |
| MattH | The problem with facts is that people often disagree what the facts are.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | They interpret them differently |
| MattH | And I'm American...since when do we pay attention to Canada ;-) |
| DeathIsYourArt | Since we are your number one trading partner |
| DeathIsYourArt | money talks |
| MattH | To most Americans that is meaningless... |
| MattH | Just as the fact that Mexico is #2. |
| redeem147 | 'colour' me surprised ;) |
| DeathIsYourArt | You are so lucky going to Vegas Colleen. To the DRY heat. the humidity is killing me. The rain we got today was so very welcome |
| redeem147 | It's been less than summery here. |
| redeem147 | And you're right. I'm SO lucky. Gonna see so many of my friends, and we get to pick Jane Espenson's brain... |
| redeem147 | What's not to love? |
| MattH | Been hot here in SoCal...scorcher for the last couple of weeks. |
| redeem147 | Oooh, you get to see palm trees allll the time (I love palm trees) |
| MattH | So what did you find out picking Jane's Brain? |
| redeem147 | haven't done it yet. |
| redeem147 | Con starts Friday, with a get together tomorrow night. |
| DeathIsYourArt | One bit of advice: Avoid the Luxor. Shitty casino and hotel |
| MattH | Oh..ok...we'll expect a full report afterwards ;-) |
| DeathIsYourArt | If you like rollercoasters, drive out to stateline. Buffalo Bills has a great one! |
| redeem147 | We're in the Imperial Palace. I have a friend who calls it the Imperial Poo, because of a nasty digestive upset the buffet gave her whole family |
| redeem147 | But I'm really there for the con. |
| DeathIsYourArt | And if you have the time. Go see the show outside the Treasure Island casino. they had a really great battle once upon a time. It now is some show girl thingy and I need a first hand account of it |
| DeathIsYourArt | The con is not 24 hours |
| DeathIsYourArt | Vegas IS |
| redeem147 | A bunch of us want to go to the Star Trek experience |
| redeem147 | The con is pretty close to it ;) |
| DeathIsYourArt | I didn't do that, so i can't say how it is |
| redeem147 | Fanfic writers par-tay! |
| MattH | Heh...I live about 5-6 hrs from Vegas and have never been there.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | And if you like heights. Do the Big Shot at the top of the stratosphere at night |
| DeathIsYourArt | I went for a wedding |
| redeem147 | No. No heights :) |
| DeathIsYourArt | awwwww |
| redeem147 | And isn't that always the way, Matt? |
| redeem147 | I"m heading out. Just dropped in to say hi and bye. Early morning tomorrow. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I wanted to go again when they had convergence but I had no money |
| MattH | Yeah...grew up in Monterey and never went to the Aquarium |
| MattH | CYA Colleen |
| DeathIsYourArt | Bye bye Colleen, have a great time |
| redeem147 | If Lisa drops in, say hi for me ;) |
| redeem147 | Night |

| DeathIsYourArt | Okay I am really getting mad at this picture now. I'm trying to fix it and it is resisting. grrrr! |
| MattH | My sympathies...I have photos like that |
| DeathIsYourArt | Speaking of pictures; I went to see the Bourne Supremacy on Friday. And Oliver Wood should not be allowed to be a DP ever again. I have never taken a film course and even I knew that almost every shot was framed incorrectly. |
| DeathIsYourArt | Seen any good movies lately? |
| MattH | Last one was POA...I will probably see Spiderman 2 this weekend. |
| MattH | Doubt if I will see the Bourne Supremacy |
| DeathIsYourArt | I enjoyed it, not as much as the first though. think I am getting too picky though |
| MattH | I am not really into dramas/thrillers/etc.... |
| DeathIsYourArt | So what is your thing? |
| MattH | SF&F mostly. Not really much of a film goer. Too much effort and money for too little return, generally. |
| DeathIsYourArt | I completely agree with you. However, I just foudn out that there is a theater opening here that as long as you are willing to wait a month to see a movie, you can see it for $1. Basically the theater buys reels that are leaving other theaters. |
| MattH | Dollar movies...such fun...I think there used to be one or two around here, but I never really looked in to it. |
| DeathIsYourArt | Now all I need is for some actual good movies to come out. |
| MattH | That is the hard part...of course people have been complaining that there are no good movies any more since before Talkies came out. |

| MattH | Hiya CM |
| Elais | geez, nearly forgot about tonight |
| DeathIsYourArt | Hi Elais |
| MattH | Better late than never. |
| DeathIsYourArt | What are you up to? |
| Elais | not much |
| Elais | watching Smallville |
| Elais | tomorrow I'm going to a concert |
| DeathIsYourArt | which one? |
| Elais | for Journey |
| Elais | next month I get to go see Weird Al |
| DeathIsYourArt | LOL neat |
| MattH | Yeah ... Weird Al is awesome...met him once when I was working at Universal. |
| Elais | cool |
| Elais | I'm hoping there will be a autograph session |
| Elais | season premiere of Smallville is sept 22nd, goody |
| MattH | I was just reading some spoilers on Kryptonsite...only a month and half away |
| DeathIsYourArt | Got to go. Have a nice night both of two! |
| Elais | yeah, I go to kryptonsite too |
| MattH | CYA DIYA...hope the picture turns out ok |
| Elais | night DIYA |
| *** Signoff: DeathIsYourArt ((null)) |
| Elais | not sure io |
| Elais | not sure I'm liking the spoilers |
| MattH | It is the only Smallville site I go to. |
| MattH | Yeah...Kind of hard to say at this moment. I really didn't care for last seasons ending. |
| MattH | Big question is whether Chloe is alive. Allison Mack has been resigned, so I would think so...but it could be a big fake-out |
| Elais | I'm sure she is alive, but in what form she'll be in is questionable |
| Elais | will she be 'chloe' or someone else |
| MattH | I am wondering if we will see Clark fly...I know that was initially verboten, but with the drop in ratings... |

| FiatLux | Hello |
| MattH | Hiya Fiat |
| Elais | hi Fiat |
| MattH | Hows your mom doing? |
| Elais | hi _sexy_ |
| Elais | actually, I think I saw mentioned that Kal-El will fly, but Clark will not |
| FiatLux | She's better. Has an appointment next week. Thanks for asking. |
| FiatLux | Are they going to have him split into two different entities? |
| Elais | sorry to hear about your mom, but glad she is better |
| Elais | not sure |
| MattH | Kal-El? But not Clark...now that is just plain silly...unless they give him split personalities.... |
| Elais | maybe that red kryptonite thing again |
| FiatLux | I can't stay too long tonight, but I wanted to check in. Anyone know if the last Succubus Club will be longer than 2 hours? |
| MattH | Candy's last post I think said 2 hrs...the same as usual. |
| FiatLux | That's not much time to get everything in. |
| FiatLux | Whoops, I was right. I've got to be going now. |
| MattH | Ok...bye. |
| FiatLux | It was nice saying two sentences to you all :) |
| FiatLux | Bye. |
| *** Signoff: FiatLux ((null)) |
| Elais | they'll probably just talk about the final episode |
| Elais | kind of share final thoughts |
| MattH | I hope we don't see red kryptonite again. |
| MattH | Yeah...but they might not have enough time to get everything in, what with all the crying and stuff.... |
| Elais | i was just reading spoilerfix.com |
| Elais | apparently the Kal-El flying bit is some kind of symbolic battle between Jor-El and Kal-El |
| MattH | Eh...doesn't really count then. |
| Elais | yeah |
| Elais | the writers are a tricky bunch |
| MattH | I'd rather they be good, as opposed to tricky....;-) |
| Elais | so do I matt |
| Elais | I sincerely hope that Smallville will be well-written this season' |
| MattH | Just looking at the actress they cast to play Lois Lane (Erica Durance)...just doesn't look the part too me. |
| Elais | I'll have to look her up |
| Elais | hmm, she hasn't been in much |
| MattH | Google image search didn't show up anything, which was a surprise, but the standard search showed a couple of pages with pics. Kind of reminds me of Eliza Dushku, although the resemblance isn't strong.\ |
| Elais | I guess she'll do |
| Elais | not sure who could have been better to play Lois |
| MattH | Heh...since I have never liked *any* version of Lois Lane in the comics, TV, or movies I doubt I would care much for whoever they picked. |
| Elais | good point |
| Elais | i guess the Lois I liked the best was the one in the old black and white superman tv show |
| MattH | When I read the comics - I liked Lana Lang and Lori Lemaris, but Lois irritated me. The character just seems to snide, in whatever incarnation. |
| Elais | john edwards on tv |
| MattH | I never saw the old bw show. |
| Elais | a litte bit of eye candy on the DNC |
| MattH | Yeah...that was why he was picked... |
| MattH | I am avoiding watching the convention....I really don't want to have to buy a new TV set. |
| Elais | I stumbled across an lj community that was writing Edwards/Kerry slash |
| MattH | Yeah...that link was shown on some blogs I frequent |
| MattH | People are weird... |
| MattH | Have you seen this....www.jibjab.com |
| Elais | hell yeah |
| Elais | I once ran across a tiny slash story on Bush/Cheney *shudder* |
| MattH | Sick...Sick...I saw one with Adlai Stevenson and Eisenhower, IIRC |
| Elais | even my mom saw that |
| Elais | and she's not much of a computer person |
| Elais | eisenhower? like triple ewwww |
| MattH | Not a computer person...should see this http://www.deadtroll.com/index2.html?/video/parents.html~content |
| Elais | odd. when I played that 'this land' clip, i got no sound |
| MattH | Really? That is strange. |
| Elais | anything new and exciting happening in your life? |
| MattH | Not really...I am trying to get my D&D game running again (on hiatus due to lack of players) and of course the interminable tinkering with my website. |
| MattH | I am working on a small post comparing Start Trek and Harry Potter |
| Elais | really? |
| Elais | never thought about that before |
| MattH | Yeah...I had a realization today that the Trio in HP have the same interpersonal dynamics that the crew of ST:TOS did. |
| MattH | Think of Harry as Kirk, Hermione as Spock, and Ron as McCoy.... |
| Elais | now that's interesting |
| Elais | I can definitely see the similar dynamics |
| MattH | Spock and McCoy used to argue a lot, for example, over the correct thing to do |
| MattH | Just like Hermione and Ron. |
| Elais | Hermoine is the 'knowledge' |
| MattH | Exactly - I had catergorized her as Intellect and Ron as Emotion |
| MattH | Each vying for dominance in the Leader figure. |
| MattH | Harry and Kirk are a lot alike too...impulsive, intuitive and with forceful personalities. |
| Elais | very true |
| Elais | can you give me a link to your site? |
| MattH | www.launchpadzero.net |
| Elais | the same site with the succubus club chat transcripts. |
| Elais | d'oh |
| MattH | Yeah...I sort of stick everything together...will be adding a blogroll this weekend as soon as I debug some Access code. |
| Elais | reading your comments on both Stargates |
| Elais | not quite impressed with Atlantis yet |
| MattH | So far it is the same old thing, set in a different galaxy. |
| MattH | I am definitely not impressed with the wraiths... |
| Elais | I like SG-! better |
| Elais | but it is kind of like an old shoe |
| MattH | The characters are better.... |
| Elais | comfortable |
| MattH | SG-1 turned me into a big Michael Shanks & Richard Dean Anderson fan. |
| Elais | I still remember RDA from his Macguyver days |
| Elais | i don't think I've seen shanks in anything other than SG1 |
| MattH | Can't say I have either...but I might watch a film or TV show just because he was in it...which I don't do for most actors. |
| Elais | checking imdb |
| Elais | the only movie I recognize is 'Door to Door' |
| MattH | Yeah...he doesn't appear to have had many parts other than on SG-1 |
| Elais | Sumuru looks like an interesting one to check out |
| Elais | I'll have to track that one down |
| Elais | oops, |
| Elais | I better get going |
| MattH | Same here... 'tis that time |
| MattH | CYA Next week |
| Elais | same time, next week? :-) |
| MattH | Natch |
