[11:05:23 AM] pD says: it is official
[11:05:33 AM] pD says: i have also re-send invites to you guys
[11:06:10 AM] pD says: btw, we can try different design templates and other stuff
[11:06:30 AM] pD says: but, i figure that it is a work in progress and should just get it up and running first
[11:12:36 AM] nsy says: looks good - would be easier to read without the line breaks, but i'm guessing thats from IM history cut-n-paste into a forced line width.
[11:12:45 AM] nsy says: this will be fun! - is fun!
[11:13:33 AM] pD says: yeah, i thought about it
[11:13:41 AM] pD says: it is relatively easy to fix using Word
[11:13:52 AM] pD says: but, i thought it gives the flavor of IM
[11:14:12 AM] pD says: maybe the next post, we "fix" the line breaks and we can decide
[11:14:33 AM] nsy says: if your IM history opens in notepad, you can go to format - no line wrap before copying, then it should paste correctly.
[11:14:49 AM] nsy says: or maybe i'm a dreamer
[11:15:18 AM] nsy says: i meant - uncheck word wrap
[11:15:57 AM] pD says: i see. it works. that is even easier
[11:15:59 AM] pD says: cool
[11:16:11 AM] pD making happy faces
[11:16:28 AM] nsy says: /doing the happy dance
[11:16:31 AM] pD says: btw, AE advise how to do this text emotion thing
[11:16:33 AM] nsy says: arg!
[11:16:39 AM] AE says: it's /me
[11:16:41 AM] AE says: then the action
[11:16:45 AM] nsy doing the happy dance
[11:16:46 AM] pD says: just type (with spaces) / m e
[11:16:46 AM] AE instructs
[11:16:49 AM] AE says: yeah!
[11:16:53 AM] AE cheers
[11:16:54 AM] pD says: hahaah!
[11:17:02 AM] pD says: we are easily entertained
[11:17:14 AM] AE runs
[11:17:15 AM] pD doing the one man wave
[11:17:29 AM] AE says: what is the sound of one man waving?
[11:17:56 AM] pD says: ouch! ouch, "what the hell are you doing", etc. from all the people around the man doing the one man wave
[11:19:49 AM] nsy says: lol
[11:27:38 AM] AE says: I'm going to run. and then eat.
[11:27:46 AM] AE says: cause if I do them both at once my shirt gets dirty.
[11:28:24 AM] pD says: and your sneakers will also complain that you are not paying full attention
[11:28:49 AM] pD says: and, we know how these fancy sneakers feel about themselves, don't we
[11:29:22 AM] AE says: these have the Nike+ in them too. so you can probably track exactly how they feel on some website.
[11:30:15 AM] pD says: of course, what is really at issue is how do the feet feel about the whole situation. after all, they are the ones doing the work.
[11:30:52 AM] pD says: sneakers may have fancy exteriors and high price tags - all in the name of protecting the feet.
[11:31:11 AM] pD says: but, what is a pair of sneakers if there are no feet.
[11:32:12 AM] pD says: the perpetual tension between the two - pedestrian reflection of the day
[11:32:31 AM] AE says: remember the saying: before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes...
[11:32:44 AM] AE says: then, when you criticize, you'll be a mile away and have their shoes.
[11:33:18 AM] pD says: only if the shoes fit - could be a very unpleasant mile, otherwise
[11:33:32 AM] pD says: btw, should you be running?
[11:33:41 AM] AE says: who says I'm not?
[11:33:57 AM] AE hides under his desk so nowone can see him
[11:34:05 AM] AE says: bye
[1:20:13 PM] pD says: have you seen the film: the queen?
[1:20:17 PM] pD says: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0436697/
[1:20:50 PM] AE says: no, is it good?
[1:23:48 PM] nsy says: me either
[1:28:08 PM] AE says: there was a great quote from the Queen in Time magazine: She was out walking by herself and someone said "you look just like the Queen." to which she replied 'How very re-assuring."
[1:28:35 PM] nsy says: haha
[1:31:39 PM] pD says: it is an okay film
[1:31:43 PM] pD says: i have not finished it yet
[1:32:03 PM] pD says: sort of a "british" production in terms of cinematography, if you know what i mean
[1:32:13 PM] pD says: and, it also has a "soap" feel to it
[1:32:14 PM] AE says: cheesy costumes?
[1:32:22 PM] pD says: but, given the subject matter, it is appropriate
[1:32:36 PM] nsy says: ooh - soap! i love that show!
[1:32:50 PM] pD says: it is a docu-drama on the days surrounding the death of princess di
[1:33:03 PM] AE says: ah, when the queen was so tight lipped about it.
[1:33:11 PM] pD says: the story line (the first half that i saw) took a rather negative view of the royal family
[1:33:14 PM] AE says: I think she got a bad rap then... she's just a reserved person.
[1:33:26 PM] pD says: being out of touch with the people and thinking that di's death is none of their problem
[1:33:46 PM] AE says: I don't think that's it at all. Look at the history of her contact with the world.
[1:33:55 PM] AE says: She's always been reserved to the point of private
[1:34:02 PM] AE says: and this is totally in keeping with her character.
[1:34:06 PM] pD says: oh, i am not taking a position on the queen. just the film's perspective
[1:34:11 PM] AE says: ah. Ok.
[1:34:27 PM] pD says: anyway, the actress who played the queen apparently won the best actress of oscar
[1:34:38 PM] pD says: not sure what that means though
[1:34:47 PM] pD says: i know her work and she is an excellent actress
[1:35:00 PM] AE says: Hollywood didn't like the queen either?
[1:35:05 PM] pD says: does she work makes her better than other actresses or
[1:35:14 PM] nsy says: yes, she is a very busy woman - i like her work
[1:35:18 PM] pD says: has she done a good job doing the queen, i really do not know
[1:35:40 PM] pD says: another interesting film to consider
[1:35:55 PM] nsy says: she played elizabeth 1 in another movie too i think
[1:36:06 PM] AE says: that's kind of funny
[1:36:09 PM] pD says: i have a feeling that if she did not win the oscar, this film would not have gotten much attention in the US
[1:36:41 PM] pD says: oh, yes, the more important thing tho
[1:37:04 PM] pD says: is that i also realized/reminded of how middle class my existence is
[1:37:37 PM] pD says: in the film, queen mother has a code name for her funeral that she (queen mother) has overseen the planning the rehearsal
[1:38:14 PM] pD says: they basically modified the same plan to do Di's funeral becuasethat was the one they can mount quickly where everyone knows where he/she would do
[1:38:37 PM] pD says: so, i am thinking what kind of code name i should have for my funeral
[1:38:49 PM] AE says: ok. i'll bite. what's the name?
[1:39:35 PM] pD says: oh, that was really a question, i have not come up with one yet
[1:40:03 PM] pD says: something description "cheat and easy" may be appropriate
[1:40:15 PM] AE says: what was the Queen's?
[1:40:27 PM] AE says: operation "shoe box"?
[1:40:34 PM] AE says: for you, not the Queen.
[1:41:04 PM] nsy says: lol!
[1:41:17 PM] nsy says: if you're not claiming that one, I am!
[1:41:18 PM] pD says: re-used shoe box
[1:41:26 PM] AE says: heh.
[1:41:29 PM] AE says: when I die there's something I want done with my body...
[1:41:43 PM] pD says: which is
[1:41:44 PM] AE says: fill it with high explosives...
[1:42:00 PM] nsy says: well, actually plastic bag is more accurate, but not as funny.
[1:42:04 PM] AE says: place it somewhere where no one will get hurt, and light the fuse.
[1:42:11 PM] AE says: true.
[1:42:15 PM] AE says: unless you cremate.
[1:42:24 PM] AE says: then you can put the ashes in anything.
[1:42:24 PM] pD says: it is your body (if not life), but wouldn't it be a bit messy for the clean up?
[1:42:33 PM] nsy says: this is what i want...
[1:42:35 PM] AE says: hey, I'll be dead.
[1:42:38 PM] nsy says: yes, very messy
[1:42:38 PM] AE says: what's that?
[1:42:47 PM] pD says: exploding bodies
[1:43:13 PM] pD says: on a related note, i reading something about death by gun shot (suicide)
[1:43:15 PM] AE says: no, what does nsy er... whatever he code is... SD? what does she want?
[1:43:35 PM] nsy says: http://www.fantasticfireworks.co.uk/prodisplaysSub.asp?itemID=12
[1:43:47 PM] pD says: what i found most compelling in terms of not shoting yourself in the head is that it is a complete mess to clean up
[1:44:08 PM] AE says: Fantastic Fireworks will treat such situations with the dignity and respect they deserve.
[1:44:11 PM] AE says: that's awsome!
[1:44:20 PM] pD says: more importantly, it is most likely that either a loved one or an innocent hotel cleaning crew have to do the work
[1:44:27 PM] pD says: it just seems so unfair...
[1:44:29 PM] AE says: dignity and respect and *swooosh BOOM*!!!
[1:44:53 PM] AE says: Ok fine, do it near the ocean and the seagulls can clean up.
[1:45:17 PM] pD says: i think the firework guys are talking shooting up your ashes
[1:45:20 PM] pD says: not the actual body
[1:45:25 PM] AE says: bummer.
[1:45:32 PM] pD says: i am sure there is a sanitary code violation somewhere there
[1:45:33 PM] AE says: that would really be messy!
[1:45:39 PM] nsy says: yes, my sister went through the entire trainoing to be a police office, and on the last day before her graduation, they took her on a coroner ride to a shotgun suicide scene that was discovered a week after the fact. i won't go into more detail, but she dropped out.
[1:46:01 PM] AE says: yeah.. I dropped out of EMT school for the same reason.
[1:46:03 PM] nsy says: the coroners clean that up
[1:46:20 PM] AE says: yuck. mine was decapitation of a motorcycle rider by a fence.
[1:46:22 PM] pD says: for the same reason that i can never attend med school
[1:46:29 PM] nsy says: ugh. horrid.
[1:46:32 PM] nsy says: agh!
[1:46:37 PM] pD says: i almost fainted when i saw my own blood
[1:46:44 PM] AE says: now you got that image in your head, eh>
[1:46:53 PM] AE says: really? and now you're a dad?
[1:47:06 PM] AE says: you'll get over the body fluid thing pretty quick.
[1:47:06 PM] pD says: decapitated rider or pD's blood?
[1:47:16 PM] AE says: either one.
[1:47:21 PM] nsy says: i'm sure grateful to people like my other suster who can be ER nurses
[1:47:26 PM] pD says: the truth is that i does not both me that much when i see otehr's blood
[1:47:32 PM] pD says: i can be quite intellectual about it
[1:47:48 PM] pD says: but, when it is mine, boy, every drop is worth more than gold...
[1:47:53 PM] nsy says: i knew you were a vampire
[1:47:57 PM] AE says: hehe
[1:48:07 PM] AE says: that's why he stays up so late.
[1:48:26 PM] nsy says: hehe
[1:48:28 PM] pD says: i do enjoy variations of blood sausage from different cultures...
[1:48:50 PM] nsy says: blood cake isn't bad
[1:48:52 PM] AE says: erk. I had hagus once... never again.
[1:49:01 PM] nsy says: eeew!
[1:49:15 PM] AE says: you're talking about blood cake and ewing hagus!?!
[1:49:30 PM] AE says: it's just a big freakin' sausage.
[1:49:39 PM] AE says: stuffed into a goat's intestine.
[1:49:48 PM] pD says: well, we do need to be sensible about the whole food thing
[1:50:02 PM] AE says: I agree
[1:50:03 PM] pD says: to the extent that you/i are going to trying seomthing "exotic"
[1:50:20 PM] pD says: it is best to try dishes from people know for their cooking
[1:50:22 PM] AE says: there's no you in team... so count me out.
[1:51:48 PM] pD says: ?
[1:51:51 PM] pD lost
[1:52:18 PM] AE says: let's sum up.
[1:52:19 PM] AE says: we were talking about death.
[1:52:30 PM] AE says: then we were talking about gross jobs
[1:52:36 PM] AE says: then we were talking about gross foods
[1:52:43 PM] AE says: then you were talking about eating
[1:52:57 PM] AE says: specifically, something "exotic".
[1:53:04 PM] pD says: i object to the suggestion that blood sausage is gross
[1:53:08 PM] AE says: to which I was saying, "thank yo but no thanks"
[1:53:17 PM] nsy says: i'm hungry... gonna go eat... brb
[1:53:27 PM] AE says: anything with blood in the name is off my menu.
[1:53:36 PM] AE says: haha bye.
[1:53:45 PM] pD says: hagus, yes (gross)
[1:53:52 PM] pD says: blood sausage, no
[1:54:10 PM] AE says: blood cake?
[1:54:19 PM] pD says: never tried it. what is in it?
[1:54:21 PM] nsy says: this kind, gross: http://www.flickr.com/photos/loupiote/99071882/in/set-72057594073092132/
[1:54:24 PM] AE says: I've never had it, but I'm going to venture it's not vegitarian.
[1:54:43 PM] nsy says: this kind, good: http://www.astray.com/recipes/?show=Chocolate%20blood%20cake
[1:56:19 PM] pD says: oh, wimps!
[1:56:40 PM] pD says: i actually have had the vietname blood cake - at least the equivalent in Chinese
[1:56:43 PM] AE says: that last one sound really good!
[1:56:50 PM] AE says: really? what's it made of?
[1:57:01 PM] pD says: it is not bad - texture similar to firm tofu
[1:57:11 PM] AE says: oh good. tofu. I can eat that.
[1:57:15 PM] pD says: the one i had is made from pork blood
[1:57:26 PM] AE says: ah... never mind then.
[1:57:27 PM] nsy says: and sticky rice
[1:57:47 PM] pD says: textrue, my dear, texture.
[1:57:58 PM] pD says: the one with sticky rice is a variation
[1:58:11 PM] pD says: actually, you can get both in chinese markets in the bay area
[1:58:21 PM] AE says: Ok, that's it!
[1:58:23 PM] pD says: pretty "common" items
[1:58:33 PM] AE says: We're going to have to have an unusal food party here.
[1:58:40 PM] AE says: everyone bring in a dish to share.
[1:58:40 PM] pD says: just like milk, blood can be re-generated...
[1:58:43 PM] nsy says: sweet!
[1:58:53 PM] AE says: yeah... so can urine.
[1:58:54 PM] pD says: do not seem to violate the killing an animal thing
[1:59:02 PM] nsy says: and spicy!
[1:59:08 PM] pD says: you do not re-use urine though
[1:59:16 PM] pD says: speaking of spices
[1:59:19 PM] AE says: if you're Kevin Costner you do,
[1:59:28 PM] nsy says: LOL!
[1:59:34 PM] pD says: just got a jar of mixed spices from Si-Chuan
[1:59:41 PM] nsy says: AE, working inthe waterwork reference - nice!
[1:59:43 PM] pD says: KC? oh, world world or some such
[1:59:57 PM] nsy says: waterworls
[1:59:59 PM] nsy says: world
[2:00:05 PM] pD says: water world

[2:00:22 PM] nsy says: bye
[2:00:39 PM] pD says: going back to my spices, this is apparently the real mcCoy
[2:01:08 PM] pD says: i have not tried it yet, but i will provide a full report when i do
[2:01:33 PM] pD says: the last time i had real SiChuan spicy cooking, it burnt both ways...
[2:01:38 PM] pD says: 'nuff said...
[2:04:05 PM] AE says: ewe
[2:04:18 PM] AE says: too much said, me thinks.
[2:04:28 PM] pD says: read a bit mroe about the raw blood cake posting/url
[2:04:32 PM] pD says: that is pretty intense
[2:04:39 PM] pD says: it is not cooked.
[2:04:53 PM] pD says: i would not touch stuff that is not cooked
[2:04:57 PM] pD says: just too high risk
[2:05:00 PM] AE says: agreed.
[2:05:15 PM] AE says: and I'll extend that same courtesy to the cooked as well.
[2:05:17 PM] pD says: unless we are talking about sushi, of course
[2:05:23 PM] AE says: or vegitables.
[2:05:52 PM] pD says: what is wrong with cooked blood? it is a common food item found in old cultures in both europe and asia
[2:06:11 PM] AE says: you're asking a this question to a vegetarian.
[2:06:36 PM] AE says: there are a lot of things cooked in multiple cultures that will not pass through my gullet.
[2:07:44 PM] pD says: that is fair
[2:08:40 PM] nsy has changed the chat topic to "The Gullet Gauntlet"
[2:09:18 PM] nsy says: lego cake: http://crystaltips.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/cake_3_1.jpg
[2:09:58 PM] nsy says: http://www.wonderlandblog.com/wonderland/2005/04/lego_wedding_ca.html

[2:11:22 PM] AE says: oh, that is beautiful!

[2:13:12 PM] nsy says: veggie burger from foster freeze
[2:13:28 PM] AE says: woah. did you get a shake too??
[2:13:35 PM] AE says: I love their shakes.
[2:13:57 PM] AE says: pineaple... that's my favorite because the chunks clog up the straw.
[2:14:11 PM] AE says: so it's a sensory experience, and a test, and a shake.
[2:14:15 PM] nsy says: no, just the burger. for now... they are only 2 blocks away
[2:14:23 PM] pD says: you should get one of 'em bubble tea straws, no clogging
[2:14:27 PM] AE says: get me a shake and I'll bring some mings.
[2:14:32 PM] AE says: ?
[2:14:36 PM] nsy says: deal
[2:14:39 PM] AE says: wots dat?
[2:14:50 PM] AE says: bubble tea straw... never heard of it.
[2:15:28 PM] pD says: bubble tea is a milk tea with topiocas in them
[2:15:35 PM] pD says: the topiocas are referred to as bubbles
[2:15:48 PM] nsy says: http://www.thenibble.com/reviews/news/images/jessicagreen.jpg
[2:15:55 PM] pD says: due to the size of 'em bubbles, the have extra wide straws
[2:16:34 PM] pD says: quite a few places in the bay area offer them
[2:17:03 PM] AE says: tapioca milk tea... is it sweet? that sounds really good!
[2:19:15 PM] nsy says: nauseatingly sweet
[2:19:25 PM] pD says: well, that depending on what you order
[2:19:48 PM] nsy says: yes, i had a thai tea, so very sweet
[2:19:49 PM] pD says: maybe we can have a field trip on a monday?
[2:20:14 PM] nsy says: woo hoo- i love fiend trips!
[2:20:16 PM] pD says: i must say that the extra sweetness is most likely a localization
[2:20:32 PM] pD says: i will check with the boss on which one she recommends
[2:20:38 PM] pD says: she is an expert on bubble tea
[2:21:00 PM] nsy says: perfect! we have an expert - right on!
