2008-04-29 [moira hawthorne]: what is a PRT ride?

2008-04-30 [Artsy]: a PRT is a 'personal radio transit' it's like.. an electric train that works as public transportation at the college I'm going to. Since the campus is so large and full of students, it's best to use these. Cuts back on pollution. ^^
http://www.arc.wvu.edu/transportation/PRT.html

2008-04-30 [moira hawthorne]: that is awesome! you must get photos of him on that!

2008-04-30 [Artsy]: I'll do my best. ^^'' Maybe I can get his picture with some college kids in it. I'd enter him in the PRT cram (a contest on campus) but I'm not sure I would be able to get him in there, and get a picture.. would be awesome though...

2008-05-08 [Nite_Owl]: Oooh, exciting! Bob's on his way around the world already :D

2008-05-08 [Cia_mar]: yes he slept in today... but we may go for a walk later... he would like that i am sure.. maybe see the neighbors horses!

2008-05-08 [moira hawthorne]: WOOOT! he made it! Im so glad! it be a shame if he ever doesnt make it to a desintation...

2008-05-08 [Cia_mar]: that would be sad...
though already richard and him have talked about bob getting a kangaroo tat!

2008-05-08 [moira hawthorne]: hahahaha! go for it!

2008-05-08 [moira hawthorne]: today was a good day for the mail... i got my bitch boots... <img100*0:stuff/BitchBoots1UpAgainstWall.png> ...they are my momday gift...

2008-05-08 [Cia_mar]: wicked boots

2008-05-08 [moira hawthorne]: =D im sooooooo tall now!

2008-05-18 [silent_voice]: Very sorry people, due to cercumstance, I can no longer take bob

2008-05-18 [moira hawthorne]: well maybe in the future huh... get your self settled and stable and Bob can come visit you

2008-05-19 [Cia_mar]: sorry to hear that silent... guess bob will be going to the carribean soon... i will try to get him sent out within the week

2008-05-19 [Cia_mar]: [Nite_Owl]i will need your add to send bob to you... please pm with it! or moira if you have it... anyway...

2008-05-19 [moira hawthorne]: NiteOwl will have to give it to you Cia... I dont have it

2008-05-19 [moira hawthorne]: if you arent send bob to silent... you can arrange when to send it to owly so she has him for her trip

2008-05-19 [Cia_mar]: well whoever is gonna have him next will need to let me know so i can send him within this week...

2008-05-19 [moira hawthorne]: are you gonna put this photos up?
Adding pics to the site...Bob made the incredible climb up Mt. Warning

2008-05-19 [Cia_mar]: i am organizing pics and writings right now... had alot done but then lost the internet for a sec... comp froz and lost the update... have to redo... but have been working on it ofr about 4 hours now... dot worry ... bob had some great fun.. and he even got in a bit of trouble....

2008-05-19 [moira hawthorne]: ooooooh ok ... I just wondered what was up cause id get updates and there be nothing new...
anyways heading to bed now...

2008-05-19 [Nite_Owl]: Oooh, so I'm next? (^,^) I'll send my address and such if so

2008-05-19 [Cia_mar]: yes nite owl, it appears you are next...if you will give me your postal info, i will have him sent to you soon!

2008-05-26 [Nite_Owl]: If you want Bob to go to the Carribean with me, he'll have to get here pretty soon--preferably within the week :\ Otherwise he might have to sit in the mail for a little while.

2008-05-26 [Cia_mar]: ah well he was going to be sent tomorrow... ... (the post does not go out on the weekends here and rich was gonna take him to work and send him today but forgot.. so if we send tonight.. if richard is home before the post office closes) then he will go out tomorrow with the post.. however it may take more than a week to go to the states... sorry... (sorry too for you moira... i know that you would have loved to have Bob make it there!)

2008-05-26 [Nite_Owl]: Ah, okay. Well, we'll find something to do in the desert somehow :) I sometimes forget that the desert is kind of a weird phenomenon in most other parts of the world, so it could work just as well :D Never know, he might make it here before next Sunday.

2008-05-26 [moira hawthorne]: if he does he does... are you leaving right on the 1st? but the desert will be plenty good enough as well... it is your home... and while visiting you ... it be proper and correct! plus there are no deserts here in Ontario...

2008-05-31 [Nite_Owl]: Well I guess we're leaving tonight, and Bob has not arrived :( But he should be okay until we get back, if he gets here while we're gone. I'll take him around the desert with me and we'll still have fun :D I'll see you all later!

2008-06-01 [moira hawthorne]: have fun on your trip!

2008-06-05 [Nite_Owl]: Bob has arrived! As for the Caribbean, well... not even I got to go. You can see my diary about that if you're interested. But the desert will suffice for us :D I'll take him for a drive to the middle of nowhere and then up the hill for a view of nowhere XD And something with cats too, of course,

2008-06-05 [moira hawthorne]: too bad you didnt get to go on your trip! ill go see your diary about it... but yes a trip in the desert is grand aswell!

2008-06-05 [Cia_mar]: [Nite_Owl] dont forget to stamp his pasport!!! (or if you dont know how, i still have the original file i used to make it...and i can do it for you...he would have arrived to you via LA or San Fran???)

2008-06-05 [moira hawthorne]: Cia_mar is it possible you can put up a link to the file you use to make the original... so everyone can use it?

2008-06-06 [Cia_mar]: i can try... though it is a gimp file

2008-06-06 [moira hawthorne]: ok see if can... =D

2008-06-06 [Nite_Owl]: Whatever you used to make it (I actually know how to use GIMP, surprisingly) my computer is FAR too slow to even try. Just opening GIMP kills it instantly. So it'd be nice to have you do it :D And it'd get here through Los Angeles, yes :)

2008-06-06 [moira hawthorne]: I hereby appoint [Cia_mar] the official passport documentor

2008-06-08 [Cia_mar]: fine by my
*bows humbly to receive the honored title*

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: *hugs* you can appoint assistants if people have gimp and want to do their turn ofcourse!

2008-06-08 [Cia_mar]: of course!

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: wonderful! =D ... oh i hope Bob is using sunscreen! i got a nasty pink band where I didnt get the sunscreen far enough down my back! made sure my neck shoulders and boobs didnt burn tho!

2008-06-08 [Cia_mar]: at least you got the important things! lol

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: yes... burnt boobeys is no fun! but I just wish Id got Bill to have sprayed my back!

2008-06-08 [Cia_mar]: *snicker*

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: didnt take my camera... we went to the streetsville bread and honey festival. a sortta art and craft show and sale with a small amusement park... the best part in my opinion was wading out in the river... it was just sooooooo hot!

2008-06-08 [Artsy]: hey! i just had a festival in town too ^^ it's the official Grantsville Wood Festival, and it was completely rained out for 2 of it's days, the rain was just so heavy, and then the next two days were ungodly hot. I'm red all over *is miserable*. anyway....

I have gimp, not on this computer, but my laptop has it.... i could request it back, if you want. Right now i don't have it ^^''

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: well by the time you get Bob... hopefully you will have your laptop back

2008-06-08 [Artsy]: goodness yes! if i don't have it by then, i'll be crying! poor Opal, we haven't been apart more than a few hours at a time since i got her....

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: hoping Isaac gets better soon!

2008-06-08 [Artsy]: Isaac is ok ^^'' he was released from the hospital a few days ago, or a week ago or something. Apparently all the pieces of his arm were still there, they had to just piece him back together. Allen has my computer. He can talk now you know. He can't move his teeth, cuz his jaw is wired shut, but apparently he's still pretty easy to understand. ^^ no more traech (that tube thingy you breath through in your neck) and no more feeding tubes

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: ok Im confused than.... was Allen in the same accident?

2008-06-08 [Artsy]: yes, but he wasn't hurt when Isaac was hurt, he had another separate accident later

2008-06-08 [moira hawthorne]: OOOOOOOoooooooooooooooo!!!

2008-07-07 [Nite_Owl]: I almost forgot I'd have Bob here for Independence Day! :o I didn't get too many pictures because of how dark it was (only one really came out not too blurry) but I'll post some of them up anyways :) I'll be sending him off to Living Armor in the next few days probably

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: Hurrah! *has no idea what to do with him* I could take him to a drive in movie... Anyone have something you want to see him do in West Virginia?

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: thought you were gonna take on the train and to school with you Living... whatever you like ... he is your guest!

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: I don't go to school until the end of August and the only other time I'll be going to WVU will be this week to sign up for classes... So I would, but it's just bad timing. If you were to put sending him to me off until September, or sometime after that, I'd be happy to. It's rides right next to a river and everything. Very pretty.

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: [*dragonstar*] want him is sept... im sure you will find something interesting to do with him.... can you still go on the train ride tho even tho you dont have to go to school... ???

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: btw.... we need more people! to sign up! so advertize the wiki more!

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: Umm.. if I signed up for a personal tour and had the like... 30-40 dollars for gas to make the 3 hour trip there and the 3 hour trip back....

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: ooooooooooooooooooooohhh... ha... well no dont worry about that than... but maybe you can get Bob back some time after sept... like in Oct for the fall colours... and take him on the train than... we need more people to join in this little adventure!

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: October is good, he can come to mine and Kenneth's birthday (mine is on the 12th, his is the 4th) And I'll be sure to get him on that train at some point ^^ And in class, after I know which teacher won't mind.

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: SO... do you want him now? or you want to be moved to October...???

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: Move me till October please ^^ I'll have more to do with him at college I think. All I could do this month is.. maybe take him to the drive-in theater.

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: oooook ... well than [Nite_Owl] you can have BOB till we find someone to take him in July or Aug... otherwise... you send him to [*dragonstar*] in sept!

2008-07-07 [Artsy]: *has put this wiki in her mood*

2008-07-07 [moira hawthorne]: i have it sent as a friends's diary

2008-07-08 [moira hawthorne]: EDIT [Nite_Owl] can you please send BOB [lacy_azlin]

2008-07-08 [lacy_azlin]: I'll take him around the country here, he'll likely go fishing LOL, and I can get him a passport stamp too.

2008-07-08 [moira hawthorne]: coooool! wonderful!

2008-07-08 [Nite_Owl]: Alrighty, I can do that :) I never did get to take him on that walk, but at elast we hung out for the 4th :D I;ll get pics up eventually, but my computer's all but trashed lately, so it might be a week or so before I can manage it.

2008-07-09 [moira hawthorne]: its allll coool!

2008-07-10 [BinaryPhoenix]: This is awsome!!! I might want him in Dec / Jan to take on my holiday adventure... I will put my name up closer to year end. ^___^

2008-07-10 [moira hawthorne]: Wonderful!!! =D Ill put you up ... we can always adjust the number system as the time get closer!

2008-07-13 [moira hawthorne]: I think we are missing comments... =(

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: Its ET's crash(es). They happened before backing up the system, so a lot of comments were erased.

2008-07-13 [moira hawthorne]:
yes.... I just forget what was said! which is frustrating... anyways... nothing that can be done of it...
so did you get to mail Bob to Lacy yet?

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: I might do it tomorrow. I probably will :) Hopefully the pictures will be up by the end of the week.

2008-07-13 [moira hawthorne]: ok Im looking forward to them... as im sure everyone else is!

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: I'm sorry they won't be too exciting :( This place really isn't that exciting at all. Just kinda flat and brown.

2008-07-13 [Artsy]: Welcome to my world. My county is known for not existing, my state is known for camping and it's deer population, and is often called, on the national news, 'Western Virginia' like we're still part of Virginia!!!

2008-07-13 [moira hawthorne]: travelling is interesting to people who havent been there themselves!

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: The most significant thing that has ever happened concerning this general area is always forgotten. We were one of the main targets of the USSR during the Cold War because of the airforce base here. Practically everyone out here works in aerospace, its really weird :o

2008-07-13 [moira hawthorne]: but I loved travel thru there.... I thought it was so beautiful!

2008-07-13 [Artsy]: I'm not a nature buff, so Bob will not get pictures with this, but West Virginia, I'm somewhat proud to say has the greatest centralized variety of trees north of the equator ^^

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: Awesome! We have...pretty much no natural trees. Hardly any vegetation at all, to speak of, except Joshua and Juniper trees, and a few little desert flowers....and tumbleweeds XD The Joshua trees are cool, at least. They only grow in like two places in the world--here and in Israel.

2008-07-13 [Artsy]: where do you live? o.O

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: Very southern California :) About an hour or so north of Los Angeles. Extremely hot--last week it was over 110 F for days. Today we might be getting a flash thunderstorm and 40 mph winds, which will cool it off to about 90 or so. Fun weather hahaha

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: Here's a random picture of what the Joshua trees look like--kinda morbid-looking when I think about it:
<img0*200:http://k43.pbase.com/u12/daverichards/upload/41498622.IMG_1922es800x533.jpg>

2008-07-13 [Cia_mar]: when trying to see that i get this message: Forbidden

Apache/2.0.46 (Red Hat) Server at k43.pbase.com Port 80

2008-07-13 [Nite_Owl]: Huh. Weird. Works for me :\ Well, you could probably Google it. They don't look like real trees heh :P

2008-07-13 [Cia_mar]: what would i google it under? or do you mean google joshua tree?
i already know about those, and that place,,,, been there... but i thought that you meant to google for your pic...lol

2008-07-14 [Nite_Owl]: Yay, pics are up! :D Took me until 5 AM...er, 5:30 AM, but I uploaded them :D I had to exclude a few so I didn't swamp the page with random lame pictures XD

2008-07-23 [lacy_azlin]: Is bob out yet? *waiting*

2008-07-23 [Nite_Owl]: He should be there any day now :D Sorry it took so long. Bad timing on my end I guess. The Post Office is always so damned crowded--took nearly over an hour to get through the line and make sure it would get there alright. -_-' Bleh

2008-07-24 [lacy_azlin]: s'kay I was just asking if he was out or not. Since the fair starts this weekend.

2008-07-24 [Nite_Owl]: Well he should almost definitely be there by then :) Probably by Friday, is my guess.

2008-07-24 [lacy_azlin]: awesome

2008-07-24 [moira hawthorne]: sorry I havent been on... just checkin in to see where Bob is now

2008-07-25 [lacy_azlin]: hopefully he'll be here today

2008-08-18 [lacy_azlin]: He'll be leaving my place with a few things to carry on in his travels ^-^

2008-08-27 [dayah]: hahah well I know a few people who have gotten it, some did okay but one died and the other was paralized by it so its not that uncomman...but I try not to worry about it to much....other wise we never go outside

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: common.... like pitbull attacks.... why dont people worry about things that kill millions each year? or each day! each 15 seconds!?!? Id have more faith in the human race if our government sent extreme poverty/aids relief to africa instead of spraying poisons over our wetlands

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: I'd feel better if we sent our excess corn to a starving country, instead of putting corn syrup in everything...

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: or turnin it into BIO fuel which causes MORE green houses gases than other fuels!

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: *nod nod* Why everyone just can't trade in their old cars for hybrids, at the very least, i'll never know...

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: I PERFER THEN HYRO VIEICLES - USE ONLY WATER

I ride a bike... always have... I have never owned a car...
and tho Bill drives to work... b/c otherwise its 2hrs bus/train ride to get there... he did that for two years... I never saw him! other than sleepin.

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: i mostly walk to my classes ^^'' or ride the PRT, though when my class ends downtown today, the PRT is not running at that time, so i have to take the bus....

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: our citys would be alot healthier if everyone rode a bike walked or took a bus ALOT more... people that drive their SUV a block to the food store should have their tires slashed!

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: yeah! my mom is like that, she owns a Ford Escape and takes it to work and back every day, yet made me walk that distance whenever I needed to go over town! it's like a 20 minute walk! it's not gonna kill her!

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: likely take her 10 mins by bike...

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: my mom doesn't own a bike

2008-08-27 [moira hawthorne]: and yet they are not expensive... and are healthy and fun!
what is wrong with the human race?

2008-08-27 [Artsy]: well.. my mom can't afford one

2008-08-28 [moira hawthorne]: with the price of gas... she cant afford not to

2008-08-28 [Artsy]: my mom can afford 10 dollars a week, not 60-100, it's just the way it is.

2008-08-28 [lacy_azlin]: yet she insists on driving to and from work. If she just walked it a few days a week she could afford a bike.

2008-08-28 [Artsy]: no, she couldn't, she would have to walk for 6-10 weeks in order to afford a bike. Although, not even then ^^'' I think getting our gas turned back on is kind of priority one, we haven't had hot water or stove use for a few months now, nor have we had a phone for like... a year and a half...

2008-09-04 [lacy_azlin]: *pokes* so then walk a few days to conserve the gas so that she can get gas turned back on, and phone and whatnot. If she just walked a few days a week, or just the nice days.. It'll cut back ALOT, believe me. Me and my roomie are one a shoe string budget ourselves. I only have power at all because I've medical reasons to need the electric. Otherwise it would have gotten shut off awhile ago.

2008-09-04 [Artsy]: Yeah... our gas bill is like... $1000 or something, and our phone bill is at least a few hundred.... I'm not sticking up for her, she could use the exercise if nothing else. She has a bad back, but I blame the lack of exercise and cigarettes. *nod nod* But she won't listen to me. Won't even let me set her up a budget! If she did, she wouldn't follow it anyway... *angry grumble*

2008-09-04 [moira hawthorne]: cutin out the smokes would save her a ton of money!

2008-09-04 [moira hawthorne]:

JEN!

can you please do the pass port stamp for Bob's trip to the states?

2008-09-04 [moira hawthorne]: after your move if you are tooo busy now...

2008-09-21 [*dragonstar*]: I have corrupted Bob. I took him to a yaoi panel at the convention. He was also kissed by Ichigo on the head twice.
Hey! I got an idea. Can I have Bob again around the same time next year? I want to get even more pics with Bob and see how many people remember him. *snickers* A good bit of people remembered the next day. This dealer's like "Hey, it's Bob!"

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: sure... I hope this continues... maybe Bob will stop by home once a year... just so i can see all the change made to him in person... but when we get to next year you are more than welcome to request him for this same time...

2008-09-22 [*dragonstar*]: Awesome!

2008-09-22 [lacy_azlin]: heehee glad he made it in time for the con. ^-^ I loved having him, and making his bag and getting that ocirana for him. It was so much fun

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: I have the perfect varsity jacket picked out for Bob. (He'll need it because it'll be cold when he gets here.) Though.. his arms are a little shirt so I will probably have to go home one weekend and have my mommy alter the sleeves.... I could do it, maybe, but it's best if she does.

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: ooooooooh that will be cool! higher education is sooo important... even for zombiees!

2008-09-22 [lacy_azlin]: He might need himself a suitcase soon!

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: I wonder if I can get Bob an ID... >.> It's really important because he'd have to pay to ride the PRT without it! We'll see.

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: oooooooh awesome!

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: i got told today by another student I can't do that, but we'll see. I'm sure as long as I pay for the useless piece of paper and lamination they'll make it for me (after all, bob's will not need to work, i just thought it would make a nice addition). Also, I'll see about getting him some little books...

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: you could photocaopy a real ID and play around with changing it abit...

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: Hmm... the library in my hometown has a laminator.. i guess i could play around with it at my house, then once i get it done go laminate it..... I'll see what I can do. Maybe I'll have it ready before Bob gets here, that way we can take the PRT for free instead of paying a fee to ride it. (although, this yesterday was the 3rd time the whole system broke down this year, though it was the first time people actually had to get out and walk in the prt area to get to the station, to freedom!)

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: oooooooooooooh fun! did you have to walk? or was it other people?

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: No, I always walk to the 2 classes I have today. The ride would take longer and it really isn't far at all... Like a 15 minute walk for me? If I take my time and just do it leisurely. Other people had to walk along the 'tracks' because it broke down. They have to ride the PRT because it would take probably over an hour, or longer, to walk from downtown, where some people live, to the CAC, where I have class.

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: welll sorry for them.... and goood for you...

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: Only sometimes. The other 2 times it broke down, it wasn't so long that we were told to get out and walk, but it was totally broken down the first time and I had to take the 8:30 bus to my 8:30 class so I was 15 minutes late. -_-'' Then the second time I got stuck ON it, but it was only about 20 minutes so I was, again, 15 minutes late for class.... SAME CLASS!

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: shittttt...

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: Yeah... It wouldn't have been so bad except the second time was on the day that we were spending the whole class period reviewing for the test I had the next day. TT^TT I think I did alright on my test though.

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: hope so! *hugs*

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: ewww... I just looked... 77.5... out of 100.... Maybe I didn't do so good. >.>

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: *hug* its not a fail...

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: It's still not as good as I wanted it to be... It's just.. I'm a visual learner, but the words get all confuzzed when I try to read them... It makes things difficult to understand... I didn't understand stuff about the easterlies and westerlies...

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: make a map than... or other visual learning toools

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: I can't. I'll remember it that way, then on the test when all I have is words, I'll be all 'was that the planet with the swirls at the equator, or the lines to the poles?'

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: hahaha that sucks!

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: yeah... mostly it was the easterlies and westerlies and I think I got perihelion and aphelion mixed up...

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: you lost me...

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: My test was in geography and some of the questions were about the easterlies (some kind of wind pattern in the north or south hemisphere) and the westerlies (some wind patter in the north or south hemisphere) and about perihelion (in winter, closest position of earth to the sun) and aphelion (in summer, furthest position of earth to the sun)

2008-09-22 [moira hawthorne]: love its been sooooooooo long since ive had to do that... and Ive really never really had to use it aswell

2008-09-22 [Artsy]: I find it interesting, the position of the earth in relation to the sun. I couldn't care less about why and where the wind blows though. >.>

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: I remember that stuff from high school. *groans* I hated it.
And I'll try to send Bob to you, [Artsy] as soon as possible. Just send your address in a pm to me. I'll try to get him out this weekend. I hope. *huggles Bob* Oh, and be careful with his cloak. It came apart once during the convention, but I fixed it.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: cant wait for your photo wiki [*dragonstar*]!!!

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: Give me some time cause I have a really old computer.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: ok.... cant wait was more of an expression of enthusiasm than impatience!

2008-09-23 [Artsy]: Bob will be resting while he's with me. Getting some education while maybe having a game of bowling, pool, or a movie at the mountainlair, or swimming or getting other exercise that rec. And of course, a ride on the PRT. He'll probably also be at mine and Kenneth's b-day party. ^^ And Melissa's (kenneth's brother's girlfriend and our old school mate, she goes to a different college).

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: sounds like alot of fun!

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: Bob defiantly needs a rest after that convention. He had lots of fun and got lots of pics with people. I even gave him wings.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: feather or fairy?

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: They had these buttons with wings on them and I got him a pair of black angel wings.

2008-09-23 [lacy_azlin]: aawwww sounds cute

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: ooooh coool1 I want to see!

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: You will see once I get the pics up. If my computer will allow it, though. Evil thing...

2008-09-23 [lacy_azlin]: evil evil thing.. I will send my mightiest well wishing your way lol

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: Thanks. At least I'm getting a laptop for Christmas and if I can't get it up on this old thing, then I will get them up with my laptop.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: Bill built a PC traded it for a lap top.. sold the lap top and is now gonna build another PC...

2008-09-23 [lacy_azlin]: I would like to get a small laptop. Doesn't have to do anything fancy. Just something I can use to do some minor cruising of the net and alot of text documents. So I can read from bed with it, write wherever I happen to be. I can get more done when I am not at home with writing. Especially if I have to have long layover times with my bus driving and don't feel like running back and forth.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: yah that would be very usefull! likely get what you need for about $200.... Bill sold the laptop which was a gaming formate laptop... it wasmore advanced,,, but also more potential headaches if it broke....

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: I would like to get one that has a good memory so I can put a few games on it and so I can save some of my writings on the hard drive.

2008-09-23 [moira hawthorne]: depends what type of game you mean... you'd need a real hypo gaming laptop to run LOTR like $1000 Bill says...

2008-09-23 [*dragonstar*]: It's not a big game. Just a small one person rp game.

2008-09-24 [lacy_azlin]: I have my tabletop one, just need to replace the graphics card, it's still good for gaming and such. Bigger screen and all. I just want the small one for chat and typing and maybe a couple of my leisure games like peggle.

2008-09-24 [*dragonstar*]: Cool.

2008-09-24 [Artsy]: I'm sorry I PM'ed you like that [*dragonstar*]! It's just, I may be moving like... next week, so my address with change so I won't be able to get my mail at that address anymore and I don't know if they forward mail or not...

2008-09-24 [*dragonstar*]: It's okay. You can pm me the new address once you get settled in.

2008-09-24 [Artsy]: Awww! Thank you! *huggles you*

2008-09-24 [*dragonstar*]: *hugs back* You're welcome. Just means I can have more time with Bob.

2008-10-01 [moira hawthorne]: awesome [arthemis_] welcome to the adventure!

2008-10-01 [arthemis_]: hihi, we need to make Bob his favorite dish too :P and give him dutch sweets!

2008-10-01 [moira hawthorne]: yes yes... I want Bob to go ALL over the world...

2008-11-02 [moira hawthorne]: woooooooot1 bob starts a new adventure!

2008-11-27 [BinaryPhoenix]: Can Bob come and visit me now in South Africa? I'm on holiday in the Kruger National Park from the 2nd of Jan till the 9th... I want to show him Lions, Elephants and loads more...

2008-11-27 [moira hawthorne]: I believe Bob is with [Artsy]... she is 5th on the list... you are already on the list [BinaryPhoenix]. Id love for Bob to come visit you! you just have to wait your turn...
