| Elais | heyas Matt |
| Elais | almost late |
| MattH | Hiya CM |
| Elais | looks like the Lost fan party is all set |
| MattH | Lost fan party? |
| Elais | yeah |
| Elais | http://destinationlaparty.com/ |
| MattH | That the one you were worried would be cancelled? |
| Elais | I wasn't worried about the Lost party |
| Elais | must have been the Las Vegas thing I was worried about |
| Elais | but I have a new set of worries, now |
| MattH | That sounds about right... |
| MattH | What new worries? |
| Elais | the Lost Party and the Vegas even are being held the same weekend |
| Elais | want to go to both, but I can't |
| MattH | Well, if you gain enlightenment between now and then, you can use bilocation and be in both places at once.... ;-) |
| Elais | LOL |
| MattH | Of course, if you are enlightened, you may not wish to go... |
| Elais | I'm also considering the grand slam event in pasadena |
| MattH | When is that? |
| Elais | March 11-13 |
| Elais | there are a few non-buffy actors I wanna meet there |
| MattH | Are you considering going to that as well as the Lost party, or instead of. |
| Elais | no |
| Elais | the lost party is in april |
| Elais | so is the vegas thing |
| Elais | this would be in addition to |
| MattH | Gotcha. |
| Elais | Rene Auberjunois and John De Lancie are scheduled to appear there |
| MattH | Ah... Star Trek |
| Elais | yeah.... |
| Elais | I loved those two in their other roles, too |
| MattH | I liked Q...I also liked John De Lancie when he was on Stargate (forget his character name, though) |
| Elais | I know John from his Soap Opera days |
| Elais | he also has been on Charmed |
| Elais | Rene I first knew from the tv show Benson |
| MattH | Who did he play on Benson? |
| Elais | I think he was also on a weird western show |
| MattH | Wild Wild West? |
| Elais | Adventures of Brisco County? |
| MattH | Never saw it... |
| MattH | Heard of it...thought it was just an action show. |
| Elais | I may be wrong about that |
| MattH | Hmmm...imdb lists it as sci-fi, so you are probably right |
| MattH | Rene Auberjunois is listed there, but apparently Mercedes McNab was in an episode. |
| MattH | Rene Auberjonois is 64....I didn't realize that. He is was in the Wild, Wild West TV movie in 1979. |
| Elais | yeah, Rene's been around for a while |
| Elais | hmm...Elektra promo |
| Elais | I think I'll pass |
| MattH | I didn't care for Daredevil (movie or comic book) and Elektra interests me not at all. |
| Elais | never saw Daredevil and I think I can survive just fine without ever seeing it |
| MattH | Lousy film.... |
| Elais | the only daredevil movie I saw was the one with the Hulk in it |
| Elais | ack, Barbara Walter is going to be interviewing Bush |
| MattH | I have never cared for her interviews.....she grates on my nerves. |
| *** suze2000 has joined #thesuccubusclub. |
| suze2000 | Hi guys :) |
| MattH | Hiya Suze! |
| MattH | Long time, no see. |
| suze2000 | yeah :) |
| MattH | So what have you been up to? |
| suze2000 | It's hard to make it when I'm in London |
| Elais | hey, suze! |
| suze2000 | At the moment, I'm in Australia on the Gold Coast (life is hard!) :) |
| suze2000 | How about you guys? how were your Holidays? |
| MattH | Pretty good..Didn't do a whole lot. Where is the Gold Coast in Australia (North, South) etc? I am an American...I can barely pick out Australia on a globe ;-) |
| suze2000 | Now Matt, I know you are smarter than that! :) |
| Elais | how long are you staying on the Gold Coast? |
| suze2000 | It's about 1000km North of Sydney - the most famous beaches in Australia |
| suze2000 | (but not the best - the best ones are in the West) |
| Elais | nude beaches? |
| suze2000 | another couple of weeks - just visiting the family for Xmas |
| suze2000 | a few |
| suze2000 | ;) |
| MattH | Ok.. The best beaches are generally in the west on every continent. |
| suze2000 | that's true |
| suze2000 | where are you at? |
| MattH | California - North Hollywood |
| Elais | doing anything other than beachcombing? |
| suze2000 | mostly driving kids over the state!! My mother has a whole pile of grandkids and stepkids here |
| suze2000 | there are a lot of theme parks here that they can go to |
| MattH | Sounds just like Southern California |
| suze2000 | I think so. The weather at the moment is lovely here though. |
| MattH | We are still in the process of drying out ... had four straight days of rain. |
| Elais | yeah, it's summer there isn't it? |
| suze2000 | 4 days? it IS winter there. it should rain |
| suze2000 | :) |
| suze2000 | Yeah, it's summer, but the weather is not too hot at the moment.. |
| suze2000 | kinda in the mid-70s (I think) and nicely breezy. |
| Elais | any danger of mudslides where you are at, Mat? |
| suze2000 | mudslides???????????? |
| MattH | Not where I am...several of my coworkers have had some problems, but nothing too serious. |
| Elais | yeah, mudslides hit one town pretty hard |
| suze2000 | that's not just rain then, is it? That's like a torrent |
| MattH | Mudslides...5 years of drought, followed by lots of water. |
| suze2000 | that's awful |
| MattH | 17 inches over the past few weeks, IIRC |
| suze2000 | oh, that's bad.. I'm sorry I was flippant about it |
| suze2000 | I didn't know |
| Elais | don't sweat it, suze |
| MattH | Feel perfectly free to be flippant...we are here in SoCal. |
| MattH | Compared to SouthEast Asia, we are *very* luckyt |
| Elais | mother nature is being a real bitch lately |
| MattH | Yep...I am expecting a metor strike soon now, she has been so cranky. ;-) |
| suze2000 | yeah. well, the drought and rain could be Global Warming |
| suze2000 | but the tsunami can't be blamed on anything but the planet |
| MattH | So people are blaming it on Global Warming also...how, I don't know...but they still do. |
| MattH | I am more worried about another ice age than global warming. |
| suze2000 | I know.. I'd like to see the scientific explaination for that |
| suze2000 | lol |
| MattH | Considering the fact that out of the past 100,000 years or so, 90% of the time was spent in a deep freeze.... |
| suze2000 | ice age? Day After Tomorrow style? |
| suze2000 | I've been to Winnipeg. :D |
| Elais | LOL |
| MattH | Didn't watch that film...I am not into junk science ;-) |
| suze2000 | oh, I was on a plane. I'm always on a plane. I never see a movie at the cinema anymore. :P |
| MattH | But ice caps as far so as the Great Lakes...yeah. |
| MattH | I see 1, maybe two movies a year. |
| suze2000 | See Serenity! :) |
| suze2000 | not now of course, since it's not out until September :) |
| Elais | I will definitely see Serenity |
| MattH | I was planning on it....will also see GOF. Dunno about Star Wars....I have mixed feelings about that series. |
| suze2000 | GOF? |
| MattH | Goblet of Fire. |
| MattH | As in Harry Potter and the ... |
| suze2000 | of, of course, wouldn't miss that for a second! :D |
| Elais | I'll pass on Harry Potter |
| Elais | same with Star Wars |
| Elais | Sin City I want to see |
| MattH | Ack! Heresy! |
| * MattH glares at Elais! |
| Elais | what??? |
| suze2000 | no Harry Potter? what are you saying? *makes sign of the cross* |
| suze2000 | lol |
| Elais | would it help if I saw I thought Harry Potter was hot in the last movie? |
| Elais | saw=say |
| suze2000 | lol |
| MattH | Well...not with me ;-) |
| suze2000 | is that why you don't want to see GOF? :) |
| suze2000 | lol |
| MattH | Hermione was looking good, though ;-) |
| suze2000 | And I'm too old to lust after teenagers. |
| suze2000 | heck my sister's oldest son is 14 |
| MattH | That is my nieces age, also.... |
| suze2000 | hence the "i refuse to lust after them" statement. it makes me feel icky just thinking about it |
| * suze2000 remembers the scene where Dawn is dancing in the bronze with RJ and Xander freaks out when he realises it's Dawn |
| MattH | Yeah...they're a crime... |
| MattH | Dawnlust..... |
| suze2000 | also, in the books, Hermione's hair doesn't become neater until GOF, so that shat me a bit |
| MattH | I love that scene. |
| suze2000 | lol Matt |
| * suze2000 can't think of Dawn as anything but annoying |
| Elais | I agree, suze |
| MattH | I admit, I don't think Emma Watson really looks like Hermione. |
| Elais | have you seen recent photos of Michelle Trachtenberg? |
| MattH | Heh...no picking on Dawn. It's not her fault, she was just written that way. |
| suze2000 | I try not to. bad Dawn "GET OUT! GET OUT!" flashbacks LOL |
| MattH | Always....a little skinny, but still good looking. |
| Elais | actually, I heard that the part was written for a younger girl |
| suze2000 | but? |
| MattH | Practically everybody was lousy in S6. There were no really sympathetic characters. |
| Elais | I think Dawn was supposed to be 12 or something |
| MattH | I blame Marti Noxon personally...when she went on maternity, Dawn and Xander were much better written. |
| MattH | She comes back...downhill they go (along with the second half of S7) |
| suze2000 | Spike, always sympathetic. though that might be drool factor as well. :D |
| MattH | I feel about Spike they way you feel about Dawn. |
| suze2000 | mmm Xander lol |
| suze2000 | my last BF was a xander clone (complete with breaking up when it came time to commit LOL) |
| MattH | Did he wear an eyepatch? |
| suze2000 | no, but it sounds kinky when you put it like that lol |
| Elais | did he do a snoopy-like dance? |
| suze2000 | lol |
| suze2000 | he was a crap dancer |
| suze2000 | lol |
| MattH | Definitely like Xander |
| suze2000 | yeah. unfortunately without the dry wit |
| suze2000 | :) |
| suze2000 | I still miss him though (sad) |
| MattH | .me pats Suze on the back.. |
| suze2000 | anyway, I gotta go.. I have to get to the physio for my poor sprained ankle |
| MattH | There, there... |
| * suze2000 thanks Matt |
| suze2000 | I'll be back in an hour or so if you all are still around. :) |
| MattH | Ok...have fun and don't be a stranger. |
| suze2000 | I try not to be, but as I said, it's really hard. chat time is 3am London time on a weeknight |
| suze2000 | :( |
| MattH | Ouch.... |
| suze2000 | exactly. anyways, seeyas soon I hope. |
| suze2000 | *smooches* |
| *** suze2000 has signed off IRC (). |
| Elais | sigh, time differences suck don't they> |
| MattH | Yep.... |
| Elais | watching Alias |
| Elais | I hope things get interesting soon |
| MattH | Slow ep? |
| Elais | yeah |
| Elais | I'm waiting for the plot arc to kick into gear |
| Elais | still waiting *g* |
| MattH | It has been 30 minutes already.... |
| Elais | I wonder if I should look into TiVo or DVR |
| MattH | Hmmm....I think we've had this discussion ;-) |
| MattH | I think they're worth it. |
| Elais | if we've already chewed the fat over TiVo/DVR |
| Elais | we need new topics |
| Elais | I just read 'V is for Vendetta' a day or so ago |
| MattH | Who is that by? All google brings up is an SF film.. |
| Elais | alan more |
| Elais | it's a TPB |
| Elais | mmore |
| Elais | moore |
| MattH | Any good? |
| Elais | yeah, I googled too, and most of what I came up with is the movie |
| Elais | very good |
| Elais | I was reading raves about it from comic book geeks |
| Elais | my library just happened to have it on the shelves |
| MattH | Haven't read a whole lot (other than fanfic lately). I read some short stories in the 1632 series. |
| Elais | i used to be a heavy book reader |
| MattH | Same here...then along came the internet and fanfiction.... |
| Elais | ever since joining a couple of online communities, reading books is a bit harder these days |
| MattH | Yeah...even when they are free - http://www.baen.com/library/defaultTitles.htm |
| Elais | somehow, reading a book on the net isn't quite as satisfying |
| MattH | It has its drawbacks... |
| Elais | I guess I kind like having the feel of a book in my hand |
| Elais | and being able to just sit back and read it |
| MattH | So do I...I have several thousand as a matter of fact...a real pain when it comes time to move. |
| Elais | I hear you |
| Elais | i try to limit the books I have on the shelf to ones I know I will re-read every once in a while |
| MattH | I just wish my Handspring Visor wasn't broken...I could read e-books to and from work. |
| MattH | Practically every book I have, I have read more than once. |
| MattH | The others I plan on rereading...someday.. |
| Elais | got a link to a handspring visor? |
| MattH | They have been discontinued...they were Palm Pilot compatible... |
| MattH | Hmmm...well I thought they were discontinued... Froogle says otherwise. |
| Elais | oh hey, I think this ep of Alias was written by Drew Goddard |
| MattH | Steven DeKnight has co-written the next Smallville. |
| Elais | oh good |
| MattH | How was the ep? Did it ever pick up? |
| Elais | it did, actually |
| Elais | I see the germ of a plot arc now |
| MattH | Always nice. |
| Elais | yeah, I see good possibilities now |
| Elais | at least enough to keep watching *g* |
| Elais | better get going matt |
| MattH | It make up for the first 1/2 hour? |
| Elais | almost |
| MattH | Ok ... see you next week. |
| Elais | always a pleasure chatting with you matt |
| Elais | have a good weekend |
| MattH | You too |
