||||||||| Catherwood re-enters the Waiting Room and explains "This is the main discussion room which is logged each night."
||||||||| Catherwood announces, "The time is 4:32 AM - I now declare Thursday's chat log for December 18, 2003 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, December 18, 2003 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!" -- then he looks around at the empty room, looks at his watch, and mumbles "...am I early?"
||||||||| Catherwood trudges in at 9:16 PM, dragging Dr. Headphones by one foot and asks "Can anyone vouch for this bozo?"
Dr. Headphones: ah, i'm early for the party!

Dictum Done: Howdy H-phones
Dictum Done: 'Guess the phones are turned down..?

Woody One: Hi Elayne.
Merlyn: hey E
Elayne: Don't know how long I'll be staying, might be going back and forth between here and the bedroom. Something on TV I'm getting a real kick out of.

Elayne: It's like watching a train wreck, I can't pull away.
Elayne: They're on commercial now, so I thought I'd come say hi.

Elayne: Ah, they're back...
Bubba's Brain: Saw a speech by a AOL/Time Warner Exec saying they figured between cornering cable, internet and phone service to get at least $200 out of every household in America...
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto is not missing much for that 40/mo
cease: carry me back to old mrs fisher
klokwkdog: ...and they're beautiful
Bambi: and the worse part is ... we are actually close enough to our CO for fast DSL, but Verizon has no plans to implement that either
klokwkdog: kwd has only phone and broadband from cox -- the cable tv left in 1993
Bambi: AND to add insult to injury ... Charter is 6 miles down the road in the other direction with no plans to come here either.
cease: stil doing the radio show, bambi and ah?
Dr. Headphones: bambi: i gave up asking my telco. every time i asked over a period of 6 years, answer was always "next year"
Dexter Fong: Klok: Kinda surprised you haven't built your own sat dish etc
Bambi: they got us surrounded and with no hope!
Woody One: They must be in some financial crap to treat the viewers so poorly.
klokwkdog: hmmm...wonder if you could run fiber both ways, Bambi, and then bridge the two networks? ought to be amusing...
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: I can get it as soon as I pay the $300 phone bill left by my late wife
Dr. Headphones: surrounded? circle the wagons!

Woody One: We are all complaining. You know that boycotts seemed to work in the 70s.
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: No fee required
Dexter Fong: Its that magnetic chip in Yam's head
ah,clem: 9 pm sat, 9 pm sun, that is it.
klokwkdog: dex - boring. I want it to all end up like Iridium -- tons of useless orbiting crap that is also a liability once it starts to fall
cease: i thought it was of alien origin
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: No, I really seem to, I never get lost
Dexter Fong: Yam: Do you migrate?
Elayne: Okay, I'm back.

Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: I may to Kansas If I can lay hands on $2K
Dr. Headphones: speaking of migration, i'm going to florida for 8-10 days next week, will miss 1 or 2 chats
klokwkdog: yam - Onstar is this GPS and you pay $400 a year to push a button to call nice person at GM who gets secret GPS info from your very car and tells you what it says. Hackers have bypassed the call-up bit
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: what a ripoff
Woody One: I'm so out of touch. What about Ossman's show?
klokwkdog: ken- beware, earth's magnetic field is waning, and you might not be able to navigate like you used to
Elayne: Ah Cat, I see on the log that you talked about Lord of the Right Wing. So, any familiar voices on it? What's the verdict?
Saddam A Go-Go Yämamøto: Give me a map, and I can find myself on it in nothing flat, for free
Merlyn: ossman's show = live from the islands, sat 12-2 PST
