<dse> is a saucer shape really the most efficient design for a spacecraft? 
<Alryssa> *knocks on the saucer door* Ah, yes, Mr Dalek, is this design 
          efficient for you? 
<PeterJF> NO 
 * Alryssa returns, smouldering and charred. 
<Alryssa> Guess so...

 * Alden blinks. Dr Crusher sending Wesley for a haircut? He barely has any 
   hair! 
<Alryssa> Alden: Plot Device? :) 
<Alden> "We need to get Wesley out fo the room quickly." "Have someone 
        accidentally open an airlock?" "Not *that* quickly"

<The_42nd_Doctor> Well. I had meant to make up for lost work hours this 
                  weekend, but the server in my boss' office crashed and 
                  isn't running yet... and it's a long weekend, so it won't 
                  be until Tuesday. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> So I decided I'd go to the library and do a little 
                  research that my boss wanted... have to consult some 
                  graduate-level physics books, probably... but the 
                  libraries are closed all weekend. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> When they say statutory holiday, they really mean it. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> <God> Sit still, dammit. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> <God> Write fanfic or something. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> <Me> Oh yeah? Make it cool enough for me to actually sit 
                  in my room. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> <Me> And you can read the stories out of my head anyways. 
                  So bleh. 
<The_42nd_Doctor> Okay, I don't really hear God's voice in my head, don't 
                  worry.

<DrFaust> Congratulations, Zoof! 
<TheDrake> congrats Zoof 
<El_Zoof> I've known Kelly for about three years... we've been dating for 
          about two months... we went window shopping on Sunday and had a 
          look in a jewellery store... 
<El_Zoof> ...and I bought her the ring 
<AudioBoy> Aww, kewl! 
<DrFaust> Who know it could be so easy? 
<El_Zoof> If it hadn't happened like that, I would have taken months or 
          longer to ask her. Nobody else was surprised, it turns out. 
<AudioBoy> Oh. Wow. Well, you'll have to let us know where and when things 
           will be so we can send Daleks, er, I mean flowerds. Yeah. 
           FLowers. 
<AudioBoy> ;)

           me is a cop.

<Shel> someone pick a number 1-66 
<PeterJF> 43 
<DoctorWho> 69... damn, out of range 
<PeterJF> LOL 
<Shel> now 1-20 
<PeterJF> 13 
<Whomiga> Nate did what I thought of :-) 
<Shel> "how did the watcher protect nyssa and adric from the growing 
       entropy field in logopolis?" 
<DoctorWho> Took them outside time and space 
<Shel> (it's question 13 on page 66) ;) 
<PeterJF> he took them out of the universe 
<PeterJF> although a spa would have sufficed 
<Shel> :P 
<Shel> well, how did he take them out of time and space? ;) 
<Shel> you got the second part of the answer, but not the 'how" 
<PeterJF> on a bicycle 
<DoctorWho> No, that was the Space Museum ^_^ 
<PeterJF> No, that was Errol Flynn 
<IanMc> He did something to the TARDIS console. 
<IanMc> Maybe removed something. 
<PeterJF> "he's unsetting the coordinates" 
<DoctorWho> Disconnected something but I forget exactly what 
<PeterJF> if ya wanna bee childishly anal ;-) 
<Shel> disconnecting the tardis's coordinated sub-system ;) 
<DoctorWho> Well I remembered part of it... 
<PeterJF> Shel: my answer is more accurate. it's the actual line from the 
          ep :-P 
<DoctorWho> Pete: So is Shel's, IIRC 
<DoctorWho> Spelling errors notwithstanding ^_^ 
<Shel> yes, so take up that with nigel roberts who wrote the answer ;)

<Alryssa> So how many people had to go to casualty as a result? *runs* 
<PeterJF> we call it "the emergency room" here hon ;-) 
<Alryssa> So? 
<Alryssa> Just because I live here doesn't mean I have to suddenly start 
          scratching my crotch and putting trucks up on bricks on the front 
          lawn 

Aug 13 [22:59]
 * Alryssa gives Nate a dirty, old PC. Rub this three times, who knows. 
   Maybe a Linux genie will appear. 
<SupremeDalek> Alryssa: More likely that Bill Gates wil pop out of it! :-) 
<Alryssa> Jack: but there's an inherent problem there: That assumes Bill 
          Gates is going to grant you three wishes, inevitably one of which 
          will involve creating an OS that works. Doesn't that go against 
          everything Gates stands for? ;-)

<Alden> Hang on... Crusher's got a guy in sick bay who's inguries are 
        regenerating... and the first thing he says when he wakes up is 
        "Who am I?" 
<Alden> Shame he's not Paul McGann :) 
... 
<Alden> uh ho, Crusher's finding her patient 'intriging' 
<Alden> perhaps he *is* Paul in heavy disguise

<PeterJF> i can't help thinking dozens of non-catolicos dreaded the spanish 
          inquisition long before they were invited to participate 
<I_Am_Legend> I was there in an earlier life and decalred: "Oh no, I'm not 
              a Lutheran...I'm a Satanist." 
<I_Am_Legend> They weren't too pleased 
<I_Am_Legend> Then I tried to sell them a copy of Dianetics, and they 
              booted me out 
<PeterJF> then they tortured you, you snapped and spent the last days of 
          your life deluded into believing you were in IRC 

Aug 16 [02:03]
<Ashleigh`> I've got a thing for bigger cars.... 
<PeterJF> if i was a ryss i would want to drive a tank, too 
<NathanR> LOL 
<Ashleigh`> ¬.¬ 
<Ashleigh`> I was referring to the way they handle. *fwap* :) 
<Ashleigh`> I like the 'lazy' glide. 
 * PeterJF looks at ryss peeking over the steering wheel 
<Ashleigh`> ¬.¬ 
<Ashleigh`> I do not peek. I can see perfectly fine. 
<Ashleigh`> I just need to pull the seat up a bit :P 
<PeterJF> cripes - had to get close to make sure u weren't a littleoldlady 
          :) 
<Ashleigh`> *FWAP*

<PeterJF> the best part is, a low flying plane can shear the cab off and 
          you live!

<Brigadier> "What are we going to do tonight, Suaron?" 
<Brigadier> "The same thing we do every night .... try to take over the 
            world" 
<DrFaust> Saruman moved in with Sauron? Maybe those two kids will make it 
          work after all... 
<Arcalian> theyre Sauron and the Saruman, theyre Sauron and the Saruman... 
<Lyssie> "Saruman, stop watching that infernal machine!" 
<Arcalian> LOL Lyss! 
 * Brigadier wonders what would happen if LoTR was done Scooby-Doo style 
   ... 
<DrFaust> "But my palantir doesn't get the Elfish Network!" 
<Lyssie> "One was a White Wizard, the other's incorporeal...." 
<Brigadier> "And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for 
            those meddling hobbits!" 
<TomFODW> "I woudl have succeeded, too, if it weren't for those meddling 
          Hobbits!" 
<Lyssie> "Jinkies, Frodo!" 
<DrFaust> "Re raid, ron't rou rose rim, Roobywise Ramgee." 
<Greebo_T_Cat> The Elves are leaving the realm!

<CrowTRobt> I painted my cyberman with silver paint to make him look like 
            the silver nemesis variety... 
<CrowTRobt> little did I know that after 10 years the paint would oxidize 
            into a gold color and kill him 

Aug 19 [06:23]
<AudioBoy> Okay, Tom, Ettiquette 101: 
<AudioBoy> Tact is keeping your mouth shut when something you want to say 
           could be taken as offensive by other people. 
<TomFODW> nope, still not getting it. you're a piss-poor teacher, you know 
          that, neil? 
<TomFODW> ;) 
<AudioBoy> Now, let's test out this theory. 
<AudioBoy> "Oh deart, my wife just died in a horrible car accident..." 
<AudioBoy> Now, Tom, what do you say? 
<TomFODW> what do you care, she was cheating on you anyway? 
 * AudioBoy fwaps Tom. 
<AudioBoy> No! 
<AudioBoy> Bad Tom! 
<TomFODW> what! 
<Arthur_the_Aardvark> was the car damaged? 
<AudioBoy> No biscuit!

          stroke, you will have swum the channel.

   the actual digits of Pi or that I went and looked them up just to see if 
   he looked them up

Aug 25 [01:44]

<NathanR> <random_C> Nate, talking to yourself is the first sign 
<NathanR> * TheLemonadeNazi prods Nathan_Roberts. You don't believe a word 
          of that, do you? 
<NathanR> <Nathan_Roberts> Nah 
<NathanR> Quoth the quotefile... 
<Alden> lol 
<PeterJF> i missed the first sign, and the second one, and the bloody exit 
<NathanR> lol 
 * NathanR tells the highway crews to go cleanup that blood 
<PeterJF> perhaps missing that exit was a good idea 
<Alden> that's what you get when you're on a highway to hell 
<Alryssa> Or a highway to #dwc :P 
<Alden> same difference ;) 
<NathanR> When did Blor take over the channel?

<Alden> I gotta get to next Galley just so people have some pictures of me 
        looking half respectable 
<Alryssa> *g* 
<PeterJF> respect the hippie. 
<PeterJF> c'mon now. 
<Alryssa> Alden, I dug the hair, dewd 
<Alden> I woulda dug the hair more if it weren't attached to me. Which it 
        now isn't. :) 
 * NathanR ought to cut his hair before next gally... 
<PeterJF> you are total belushi at the moment nate. it's kinda cool :) 
<Alryssa> What, he's dead?

 * Alden facepalms. 
<Alden> I want to make a yahoo group for a fanzine. But there are no 
        fanzine catagories on Yahoo Groups. 
<Alden> There's a humour magazine section 
<Alden> and an adult magazines section 
<Alden> but nothing for a Doctor Who fanzine 
<PeterJF> but no silly adult magazine section 
<Alden> maybe I should just put it under Adult Magazines, and when Yahoo 
        complains, I can tell them where to go 
<Alryssa> Yahoo would complain? 
<Alryssa> That would make hell freeze over by itself 
 * PeterJF . o O ( Dr. Hooters ) 

Aug 27 [22:13]
<DoctorWho> It occured to me to intersperse QF sketches in with interviews 
            outlining the history of the quotefile ^_^

<Greebo_T_Cat> Ok, now I have to sit and wait whilst the engineer goes to 
               the local exchange, because no notes have been left by the 
               engineer who *visited* the exchange, so he doesn't know 
               whats been done... 
 * Greebo_T_Cat is now... 3 hours late for work. ish. 
 * IanMc wishes for some parmesan cheese. 
 * Greebo_T_Cat wishes for a gatling gun 
 * Alden wishes for 47 million dollars 
 * Greebo_T_Cat wishes for world peace, an end to poverty and disease.... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> and a gatling gun 
 * IanMc wonders whose wish will come true first.... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> *pleasebeminepleasebeminepleasebemine* 
<Greebo_T_Cat> or the gatling gun part at least.... 
<Alden> Ash: why do you want a gatling gun? 
<Greebo_T_Cat> To line up various BT Techs against a wall and have a 
               shooting party.... 
<Alden> ahhh.... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> except the tech who's currently running my ass off to help 
               me, as he appears to of been handed zero-fuckin info on this 
               case... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> This BT engineer is remarkably honest. 
<Greebo_T_Cat> he considers the 'dead fish' modems to be a pile of shit and 
               he was relieved i wasn't using one 
<Greebo_T_Cat> He's also a Mac user at home. I like him :) 
<Greebo_T_Cat> Plus my colleague just rang up and said that everything at 
               work was ok, and if i couldn't make it in, it was cool... 
<NateDoingTheUnthinkable> The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy defines the 
                          technical support division of British Telecom as 
                          a bunch of mindless jerks that'll be the first 
                          against the wall when the revolution comes 
<Greebo_T_Cat> Nate: the revolution came. We then discovered the 
               bullet-proof properties of shit-in-suits 
... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> BT amazes me, One exchange serves the entire 
               tewkesbury/northway/bushley/bredon area.... 
<Greebo_T_Cat> and its unmanned. 
<NateDoingTheUnthinkable> o_O 
<Greebo_T_Cat> Its brilliant. totally brillaint. 
 * NateDoingTheUnthinkable is impressed with BT. They've elevated stupidity 
   to a high art 
<NateDoingTheUnthinkable> That kind of stupidity takes /talent/ 
<Greebo_T_Cat> BT executives don't die... they run for parliment. 
<NateDoingTheUnthinkable> ah. A step down then 
<NateDoingTheUnthinkable> Into politics, where all it takes is mundane, 
                          everyday stupidity 
<Greebo_T_Cat> Newsflash: G W Bush was a BT technician... let go after he 
               soldered his tongue to a RADIUS configuration.
