[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:12:43 PM Eastern Daylight Time] Nick web35 is now known as KK.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:12:47 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> But if it were "killed," would the illusion simply disappear, or would it then be an illusion of mush gross stuff?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:12:56 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Hullo KK. we were just talking about you. 😉
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:13:14 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Assuming the illusionist was still there, I imagine it would appear to be mush gross stuff.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:13:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> LOL! What an intro, Nezz!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:13:41 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Oh, lovely. In the same breath as mush gross stuff?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:13:42 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> For the record, KK, we weren't calling *you* mush gross stuff!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:13:53 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Oh good.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:06 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <tm_9039> What was left of the stenrect crawler was the mush gross stuff.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:07 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> We were discussing Deryni illusion magic
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> We were calliing your dead stenrec crawler mushy gross stuff
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:22 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> and how it might create something that appears to be as real as a stenrect
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:25 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> ah.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <derynifank> Hi KK
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:14:44 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <tm_9039> Or some of us who are insisting that the stenrect crawler was was WAS real no take backsies!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:15:34 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> hi KK
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:16:03 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> And I was saying that if a creature I always thought was imaginary suddenly appeared in my house and stung me, and I thought it was highly poisonous, the shock and fear of having that nightmarish creature suddenly conjured up might kill me of cardiac arrest even if it's merely an extremely convincing illusion, assuming the illusion fooled all senses sufficiently to be fully mista <clipped messag
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:16:03 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> ken for reality. So I can see how that might work.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:16:37 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> well, I guess we can assume that the Stenrect either was real or was an illusion set by Charissa or one of her minions.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:17:05 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> LOL! So the theory shifts yet again? 😄
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:17:44 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Hi KK.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:17:51 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> And everyone.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:04 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Hello, all!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:07 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Hi, DR. Welcome back! Have you adjusted back to FL time yet?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:17 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Hi DR
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:20 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> It's not the time that's kicking my bum; it's the heat!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Yeah, I can imagine!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:18:54 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Any plans for Ladysmith to visit and experience the sweltering FL heat?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:19:04 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> When I left Manchester yesterday morning, they had to de-ice the plane so we could take off. When I landed in Orlando it was 92 F.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:19:11 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Yikes!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:19:14 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Where were you, DR?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:19:39 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Probably not. He and his late wife used to own a house in central Florida, but they sold it around 2015-16.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:19:44 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Central England
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:20:10 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Ah, Manchester....New Hampshire?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:20:16 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> UK
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:20:17 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I actually helped them buy the house, in the form of "feet on the ground with a more or less local phone number."
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:20:44 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Oh, cool!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:20:48 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Oh, you were actually in England. Cool!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:21:12 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Sort of like when I helped DD rent a house by being one of the local people looking around at rentals for her while she was still in Colorado?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:21:27 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I flew into and out of Manchester for reasons of a direct flight, but Birmingham would have been closer. East Midlands would be closer yet but it's mostly a cargo airport these days.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:22:11 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> And you were there for....?
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:22:24 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Ladysmith didn't want me trying to change planes in a foreign airport after a transatlantic flight since I hadn't flown internationally before, and as his job used to have him all over God's little green earth, I trust his judgment there.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:22:47 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> To visit.
[photos redacted]
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:23:38 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Here I am with @revanne_ and @Demercia.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:23:51 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I'm glad you got a chance to connect with them during your time there.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:24:01 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> We got lunch in a pub in Lichfield and then @Demercia gave us a tour of the cathedral.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:24:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Manchester isn't bad. You can often get really good fllght deals flying in and out of lesser used airports.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:24:40 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <derynifank> That's so cool that the three of you were able to meet
[photos redacted]
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:25:09 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Ladysmith and me, the same day once we got back to his house.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:25:47 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Sounds like you had a good stay, aside from the cold you caught
[photos redacted]
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:26:04 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Awww
[photos redacted]
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:26:18 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> And how cool, that you got to meet Revanne and Demercia in person!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:27:09 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> His dogs, Hero and River. They turned three years old while I was there. Hero likes to throw himself full-body into the water after his tennis ball; River is more sensible and will paddle in the water but she doesn't like to swim.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:27:25 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> It was great.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:27:43 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> And who is Ladysmith to you? Relative? Just friend? (You may already have said this, before I got here.)
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:27:45 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> England is gorgeous, even in January and February.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:27:59 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> He's my boyfriend, now; we've been friends for about twenty years.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:28:23 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Ah, boyfriend! Even better!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:28:26 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <derynifank> That's wonderful!

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:29:46 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Northwest Leicestershire has fun little signs reminding people that it's rude to leave gum on the pavements.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:29:53 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I love that you took your trip during the coolest season in FL to visit somewhere colder and are returning now that it's hot, instead of going to avoid the heat of summer like...well...most of humanity would do.... 😄
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:29:53 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> I like those signs.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:30:12 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Well, I'll probably be going back in the summer, too.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:31:01 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I got a serious lecture in Cat and she was Displeased when I went out to get groceries today.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:31:06 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <HoundMistress> Hi, KK, bynw, DFK, Evie, St Nezz, DR,
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:31:06 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> And I like the black labs.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:31:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> HoundMistress, your email on the forum has been bouncing as over quota recently. If you have another email account you should login and get that fixed :)
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:31:35 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> They are delightful dogs. My mom says no Labrador has ever met a stranger.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:32:21 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <HoundMistress> I had a problem with Spectrum not wanting to support my austin.rr.com account. I think it's back.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:32:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> ok
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:32:36 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> They both appointed themselves my puppy slippers in the evenings, when Hero wasn't making himself a footrest for Ladysmith's ward (his late wife's cousin who moved in with them a year or so ago to go to sixth form at a better school).

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:41:01 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> They are good dogs. We had one in Ireland that was about half lab, and looked lab. Sweet dog, littermate of our Oswald. Sadly, she met a sad end when she and Oswald were out playing by the lake. There were spot that were like black quicksand. One evening when the pair of them were out and about, Oswald came home almost covered in thick black mud.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:41:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Scrappy was never seen again. We figured that the pair of them got stuck in the quicksand, and Oswald managed to scramble out, but he was that much bigger and more muscular than his sister, and Scrappy likely was stuck and couldn't get out; sucked under the mud. several ponies from the nearby riding school had met that fate, so we knew it was a
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:41:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> distinct possibility. Oswald obviously was traumatized, and looked for her for several weeks, but no one learned what had happened.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:41:06 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> DFK, bring your laptop to DeryniCon and I'll see whats going on with it :)

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:42:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <The_Bee> I had to take it back to the store to get it set up, and then it took me over an hour to find the store--which I'd visited two days ago.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:44:20 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> i'd really like to see these computers having these issues
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:44:33 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I'll be bringing mine with me

Coming back via Amtrak, so would be able to use the new beast on the way. Bynw, any recommendations on laptops? I was on Amazon this afternoon. Are Lenovo machines any good?

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:48:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> HM, if you are getting errors like bad gateway ... that is an internet issue, not likely something on your computer
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:48:14 PM Eastern Daylight Time] * bynw is going to say Dell or HP for computer recommendations
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:48:23 PM Eastern Daylight Time] * CambersGhost [discord] <stnezz> whispers "macbook pro"
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:48:26 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <The_Bee> My new one is a Dell.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:48:44 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I'm on an HP and love mine. I've had both good luck and bad luck with Dell desktops, but haven't owned one of their laptops.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:49:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> all of my computers at home are Dells
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:49:43 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Yeah, but they're much more expensive. I've had several Dell desktops, and they've been good.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:52:19 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> when i upgrade next year to a new machine, i'll go directly to Dell and order it. probably cost $3000 since i'm going to custom stuff on it

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:53:55 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Oh, yeah, that might be a dealbreaker for someone who doesn't use Docs. I write almost exclusively in Docs these days.

I know there's a password vault of some sort on the phone, but I can't find it and don't know how to make it work. Maybe I can ask Bynw to tackle it and make it work, so that I don't have to back to Android and relearn all the

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:55:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> Google Docs is OK. LibreOffice is OK too. Just a few formatting tricks that they don't do that Word does. And I was writting something once and needed one of those tricks so I had to get Word.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:55:54 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> I can help you with that too KK :)

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:56:33 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> The "steep earning curve" made me laugh out loud. I suspect that was meant to be "steep learning curve," but I would need a steep earning curve to afford a Macbook. 😄

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [7:59:16 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> It also doesn't come with an owner's manual. Maybe Bynw can sort that out as well.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:12:41 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> it out. Mind you, it isnt much of a discount--only 10%, and that's only on the actual fare, not accommodations. About $40, in my case. But at lest it's sorted now., thank God!
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:13:04 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> would leave thursday before at 6:45pm get into staunton at 2:40pm on friday ... coach is $92

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:17:56 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> Well, the fare with the bedroom or roomette also includes very nice meals, and by the time you add up hotel prices and meals. But you don't ride Amtrak for economy; it's the actual journey. And I like trains. And you can walk around, and go up to the observation car, and see really beautiful scenery and critters. I probably won't get the

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:21:13 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> you might just have it highlighted for copy/paste Bee
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:21:38 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <The_Bee> Whatever I did, it's okay now.
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:21:39 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <bynw> we hope you dont lose power KK

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:23:04 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <KK> VERY heavy rain! I think I'll maybe shut down and pay attention to the weather. Earlier, we had tornado warnings, but no orders to take cover. Still....
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:23:05 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <The_Bee> We're expecting downpours tonight and most of MondY.

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:24:38 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <laurnarose> I consider that Stenrect crawler to be very real, but it was brought into being from a demonic dlocation

[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:24:57 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> If it's a warning, then always take cover. Watches just mean promising conditions for a tornado, but a warning in your area means it's on the ground
[Sunday, March 16, 2025] [8:24:58 PM Eastern Daylight Time] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Yay purple sparkles!
