[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:05:53 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Mine is not. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:06 PM EDT] <DesertRose> We're talking about waffles, KK. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:06 PM EDT] <KK> Everyone watching the Olympics? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:23 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Oh, I forgot about the Olympics [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:24 PM EDT] <KK> Waffles. Yum!

[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:46 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> What sports are on today? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:48 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Olympics might interfere with waffle appreciation. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:06:48 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Priorities are important 🧇 [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> So I've been sort of vicariously paying attention to Friend's live-blogging. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:09 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I think we might need waffles for dinner next Sunday night... [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:20 PM EDT] <Imladris> no watching olympics.. am pretty much done with "pro" sports.. and the olympics are far from the amateurs it was supposed to be. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:24 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Bring enough for everybody, please? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:27 PM EDT] <KK> I want to watch the Women's Gymnastics, so I'm outta here when that starts.

[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:45 PM EDT] * DesertRose sets up a waffle-sundae bar so that people can build ice cream treats on top of waffle bases. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> We're watching The Tomorrow War, but we've turned it off for now: it's kind of intense and I want to pay attentioin to it, but i"m on here now [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:48 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi HoundMistress. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:54 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hey HoundMistress, a bunch of us are here [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:07:57 PM EDT] <Imladris> I have a Columbo on...... [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:07 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Bee, DR, Eris/Bethane & Imladris [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:11 PM EDT] <Laurna> Hello KK. Needed some tea [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:13 PM EDT] <Imladris> waves [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:14 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I've been taking a trip back through my Tony Hillerman novels. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:25 PM EDT] * The_Bee addds honey and maplee syrup to the sundae bar. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:36 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi KK, Laurna [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:52 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> throws one waffle into the air for bynw [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:57 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Everyone OK? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:58 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Since they're going to make a TV/streaming series out of them, and while I'll miss Wes Studi and Adam Beach as the lead characters, I like the casting for the series. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:58 PM EDT] <KK> I'm still on my James Patterson marathon, now reading Mary, Mary. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:08:59 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Hi everyone. I'm here too [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:09 PM EDT] <Imladris> close tomorrow on the refinance of house in florida... dropping four% interest.. should have done a while ago.... alas. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:12 PM EDT] <DesertRose> The guy playing Leaphorn is actually short, like the character is written in the book. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:13 PM EDT] <Laurna> Our first not so hot day. so Hot Tea is tasting good [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:15 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi DerynifanK.

[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:35 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, I like Tony Hillerman and his daughter is not doing a bad job of picking up the series. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:41 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Wes Studi did a great job, don't get me wrong, but he's too tall for a character who's supposed to be 5'7". [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:48 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> hei DFK, hello Cat [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:09:57 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And it's still Chris Eyre directing and Robert Redford as executive producer. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:10:08 PM EDT] <KK> Good time to refinance. I refinanced one of my properties last year, but it looks like another refi would be useful. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:10:12 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I like that Anne is paying more attention to Bernadette. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:10:14 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> When and where will it be on? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:10:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> I do like Anne Hillerman's books.

[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:02 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Not sure when, but AMC will be broadcasting it: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15017118/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_1 [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:05 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Me, too, DFK [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:16 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> OK< thanks, DR [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Yeah, hot fund on our waffles! you're the best Shiral!

[Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Yaya. National hot fudge sundae day [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:31 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, CW [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:38 PM EDT] <KK> Looks interesting. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:42 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi Cat. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:11:51 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Merry go round FIRST, THEN hot fudge sundae. =o) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:03 PM EDT] Join Jerusha () has joined this channel. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:06 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Is there anything fot which there is not a national day? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:09 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi Jerusha! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:13 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I've been reading the "#1 Ladies Detective Agency" still [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Hello Jerusha [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:25 PM EDT] <Jerusha> Hi Everyone! Discord seems not to be working [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:26 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Shiral [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:34 PM EDT] <KK> Vampires come to mind. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:38 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Jerusha [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:38 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Well....I hope there is no such thing as get your toes pinched by a lobster day [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:39 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Jerusha, it's working fine for me [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:44 PM EDT] <Laurna> Hello Jerusha [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:50 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I've just finhedA Time of Omens by Katharine Kerr. One reviewer says, "Indeed, her work is beginning to invite comparison with Katherine Kurtz's massive Deryni saga."." [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I also like that the new series is going to back up in time and not try to make it the present day; there are elements of the books that are anachronistic as heck but important plot-wise, and setting them in the 70s and 80s makes more sense. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:56 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Oooh. I love the #1 Ladies Detective Agency [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:12:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> How about Getting Stung By a Jellyfish day? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:17 PM EDT] <Laurna> I hope there is no Bit by a Vampire Day [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:18 PM EDT] <Jerusha> I might pass on that one [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:23 PM EDT] <Imladris> at the moment, don't think there is a Nat'l Deryni day.. perhaps we should seek to get that remedied? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:23 PM EDT] <KK> Interesting, Bee. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:25 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Ouch! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:30 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Hi Hound Mistress, hi KK, Bethane, Calimcil Catherine Windsor, Chris, DR Laurna and Jerusha et al. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, I've read a lot of the books in Kerr's series. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:49 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Samesies. I don't want to get bitten by anything (except maybe Carys when she misses when I hand-feed her treats). [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:13:51 PM EDT] <Laurna> I am all for that Imlandris [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:15 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It has a lot of reincarnation , elves and Celtic folklore. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:24 PM EDT] <DesertRose> What was Camber's birthday? That seems a good candidate for a date. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:26 PM EDT] <KK> I'd be in favor of national Deryni Day. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:28 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> We should start by casting the wards... [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> I think we should lobby for a National Deryni DAY [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:30 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Sounds good [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Bee, have you read the earlier ones? Daggerspell and Darkspell? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:44 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Who sets up the days? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:14:52 PM EDT] <Imladris> Congress [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:05 PM EDT] <KK> All of them? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:12 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> What if WE declared a National Deryni Day? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:12 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> OK we need to all contact our congressmen [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:16 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Must be the only thing they cab manage to do [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:19 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Bethane, I've been reading them in order. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> States can have their own days, but the governor sets those up [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:40 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Good [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:43 PM EDT] <Laurna> Well I say the Camberiain Council can make its own Kingdom Deryni Day. and Kelson can approve it [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:15:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Per Codex, Camber's birthday is 3 August. (Of *course* he's a Leo.) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:03 PM EDT] <KK> That'd work, Laurna. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:04 PM EDT] <Jerusha> Surely, our Queen of Stories can declare a Deryni day [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:04 PM EDT] <Imladris> SCA could? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:10 PM EDT] <Laurna> It is coming up [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:16 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Which doesn't give us much time to prepare for this year, but. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Oh, let Kelson declare it, then the Camberian Council will just have to deal with it. =o) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:22 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Would you trust the CC of Kelson's time to do it properly? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:43 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Does anybody recommend that? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:16:50 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Or we could use KK's birthday in October. ;) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> If, of course, Our Lady of Stories doesn't mind. :D [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:05 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hear! Hear! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:11 PM EDT] <Imladris> Don't even know what realm I am in.. having moved from the appropriately named Star Haven... with a weaver's shuttle on the coat of arms. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:11 PM EDT] <KK> That'd work. And gives time to set it up. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:12 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That would be a good date. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:16 PM EDT] <Laurna> Hear Hear [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:19 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Angsthase, I don't even recommend it... 😉 [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:24 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> October would give more time to prepare. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:24 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> There would be no Deryni without Katherine, after all. =o) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:24 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Star Haven is here in Trimaris! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Talk Like A Pirate Day was popularised online first [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:50 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Where are you mundanely, Imladris? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:17:59 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> But would Kelson approve the October date? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:18:03 PM EDT] <Imladris> in the black hills... . [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:18:06 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> LOL! That's a fun day!! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:18:30 PM EDT] <Jerusha> Can't see why he wouldn't [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:18:52 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Northshield, Imladris. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:03 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> She gave him a whole Kingdom, after all [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:10 PM EDT] <DesertRose> If you want to find your local branch, here ya go: http://www.northshield.org/Branches/Search.aspx [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:10 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> Remember that during this period, it was more common to commemorate deaths than births [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:15 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Someone would have to give him a reason why that date was selected, and would he accept "because it's your creator's birthday" as a good reason? Does he even know about her? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:20 PM EDT] <Laurna> LOL I am with you Shiral [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Well, Camber didn't die, per se. ;) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:37 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> And Alaric, Duncan and Dhugal and Araxie [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:19:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <Angsthase> (that said, please do not assassinate Ms Kurtz to fix a date for Deryni Day) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:20:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> And Nigel and his father and Meraude [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:20:15 PM EDT] <Jerusha> "you don't understand, your Majesty. I have the "delete" button [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:20:25 PM EDT] <KK> It could be Founder's Day. I don't think that requires a death. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:20:40 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> 👍 [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:20:43 PM EDT] <Laurna> As I recall, Evie had Duncan using the internet. so therefore, Duncan will know to apporve it. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:10 PM EDT] <DesertRose> NOOOOO! Never assassinate KK! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:17 PM EDT] <KK> brb [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:18 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Oooooh, well if BishDunc gives Kelson the word, he'd probably do it. "Trust me, I'm a priest." [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:20 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Absolutely not! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:26 PM EDT] <The_Bee> How many pirates were killed to solemnize "Talk lilke a Pirate Day"? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Alaric still wants his light saber! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:42 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> KK, did you go put on your armor? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:52 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Piracy was a line of work with a high mortality rate in the first place. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:21:56 PM EDT] <Imladris> bee" we wouldn't know.. would be like the Duke of Clarence perhaps [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:03 PM EDT] <Laurna> Kelric wants that Light saber too [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> think they're ever going to get one? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:24 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Quick, hand Kelric the honeypot first [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:24 PM EDT] <DesertRose> (I mean, life has a high mortality rate, but getting killed on the job is a lot more likely for a pirate than for a novelist.) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:26 PM EDT] <Imladris> [switching series] [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:33 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> They have to build their own light sabers. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:38 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Alaric did have one, briefly [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:42 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Ill-fated title, that. (Duke of Clarence) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:22:51 PM EDT] <Laurna> Honey on the hilt of a light saber might not be good [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:07 PM EDT] <DesertRose> (Please don't get the power button glued with honey. ;) ) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> No, but a sticky 3 year old is better than a three year old playing with a light saber [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:15 PM EDT] <Laurna> NO [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:20 PM EDT] <Imladris> of course, George, Duke of Clarence, was a nasty in the War of the Roses. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:20 PM EDT] <Jerusha> Stickey business [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:23:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> He deserved his end, but execution for treason is not a fun legacy to leave. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:24:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> I think George was dropped on his head at birth! [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:24:22 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Clarence "drowned himself in a spot of malmsey wine." [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:24:49 PM EDT] <The_Bee> according to 1066 and All That. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:24:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> He apparently asked to be drowned in the butt of wine; he was convicted of treason, but noble traitors often got their choice of execution method. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:24:58 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> In a medieval setting, would nabbing three strawberries from the queen's garden be considered treason? In a fantasy realm? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:17 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Depends on how badly you ticked off the queen in question. ;) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:33 PM EDT] <Imladris> old age? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:44 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> She might have wanted to make some tarts with those strawberries after all.... [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:46 PM EDT] <Laurna> and how prized strawberries are [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:47 PM EDT] <The_Bee> an if he was a Wicked Queen. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:25:58 PM EDT] <The_Bee> she [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:08 PM EDT] <DesertRose> If she's the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, you might be in trouble. If she's Araxie Haldane and your fruit theft didn't inconvenience her too badly, you'd probably just get a royal scolding. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:19 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> BRB, Quanah & Lily Kitty say they are hungry NOW. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:20 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> They were actually growing wild under the bridge, but they were techincally in the queens gardens and so technically hers [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:38 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Depends on the queen's temperament. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:41 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Fruit tarts were a favorite dessert. If making them for her she might forgive you [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:26:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Or if you share the strawberries with her. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:13 PM EDT] <Imladris> trivia..... George Washington's favourite dessert? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:20 PM EDT] <KK> A bit of trivia for you. How are you guys pronouncing Araxie? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:31 PM EDT] <The_Bee> probably not ccherry oie [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:35 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> A-rax-ie [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:38 PM EDT] <Imladris> Uh-Rax-ee [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:41 PM EDT] <Laurna> Are strawberries medieval? Some how I think of them as new world modern [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:49 PM EDT] <Jerusha> A-raqx-ee [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:50 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Ah-rax-ie [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:27:59 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> Is it Arahee? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:08 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I think they would have grown wild, Laurna, and so, been much smaller [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:15 PM EDT] <The_Bee> You oncesaid it was Ah-RAW-shi, KK. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:24 PM EDT] <Laurna> Ah-raque see [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I've found strawberries into the 1500s, but yeah, the domestic ones didn't come until later [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:36 PM EDT] <KK> I recently learned it's A-RASH-ie. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I was going with a-RAX-ee at first until I found out that the X represents a "sh" sound, so I switched to AH-rah-shee. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:51 PM EDT] <Imladris> New grandniece named Islay [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:28:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> They're medieval, Laurna. Strawberry leaves have been used on ducal coronets since the 14th century. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:06 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Pronounced EYE-lah? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:14 PM EDT] <Laurna> Oh that is cool [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:14 PM EDT] <KK> Yep, I think I did mention that. Carry on. ;-) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:17 PM EDT] <DesertRose> (Basically, as if the Y weren't there.) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:20 PM EDT] <Imladris> rimes with Lila [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:21 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> Arashee...It can work [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:25 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> A-rax-ee [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:39 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That's Ah-rax-ee [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:29:44 PM EDT] <Jerusha> And I had to learn how to repronounce Alaric too [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:01 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> How? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> (The current queen of Trimaris is Islay Elizabeth, which is why I went with the "rhymes with Lila" pronunciation.) [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:16 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Sorry, Islay Elspeth. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:18 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> I've been pronounc9ing it wrong all these years, I recently foudn out [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> I used to think it was Ah-LAIR-ic [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:28 PM EDT] <Jerusha> When I first started reading the books, I pronounced it "A-lar-ic" [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:33 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I think it's AHL-ar-ic. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:35 PM EDT] <Imladris> any takers on GW's favourite dessert? keeping in mind what was available in North America then. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:38 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> It's not Ah-LAIR-ic? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:50 PM EDT] <The_Bee> AH-la-ric, I think [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:50 PM EDT] <Laurna> I was with Jerusha [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:30:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <Bethane> apple pie? Strawberry shortcake? [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:31:04 PM EDT] <Eris> <Shiral> AL-aric, I think is the correct pronunciation [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:31:05 PM EDT] <Imladris> think DR is correct [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:31:18 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It means "King of All." I wonder if Kelson knows that. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:31:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Catherine Windsor> ALA-ric. I know a few. [Sunday, July 25, 2021] [7:31:33 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, crud!
