<PeterJF> i keep meaning to learn vi, since it's the only text editor you 
          can count on being availavble in unix. except i think it's shit 
          and i prefer emacs and won't cave in to that kind of tyranny. so 
          it sucks to be me once every couple of years when i find myself 
          stranded and reading vi commands on the web 
<DoctorWho> Pete: Even I can't keep VI straight in my head 
<PeterJF> that's because it's as straight as the line the master walks 

Sep 9 [02:48]
<DoctorWho> Why are we +R tonight?

Sep 12 [22:40]
<PeterJF> if liverpool wasn't a harbor, it would be part of wales, i was 
          noticing from a map 
<PeterJF> it is about as near as you can get to wales without being in 
          wales 
<dse> is that a good thing? 
<Alryssa> Don't answer that. 
<Alden> Doug: not being in Wales, or being as near as possible to Wales? 
<dse> either one 
<PeterJF> never send montgomery scott to wales 
<GeoffWessel> THERE BE WALES HERE! 
<Alryssa> *fwap* and *fwap*

           and let me know so I can approve them for the group 
<PeterJF> me

<PeterJF> austinprefect@yahoo.com is my spam trap 
<nathanr2> aha 
<nathanr2> Do you want me to unsub the other you and approve that one? 
<PeterJF> i subscribe to the list with my speakeasy mail, but when i want 
          to use the features at yahoo groups, i login as austinprefect, 
          but i dowanna use austinprefect mail 
<PeterJF> yahoo makes me login to read old list email, but i'd be high to

<nathanr2> "Now I'm gettin spam, and I know why... Because I got high, 
           Because I got high, Because I got high..."

<Greebo_T_Cat> Mossy: tell me something i don't know 
<Mosquito> I have a very cool cordless screwdriver. 
<Greebo_T_Cat> Ok, i didn't know that.

<The_42nd_Doctor> I discovered margaritas last week, and now the weather 
                  gets cold. It was a virgin margarita, but it was still 
                  really good. 
<DoctorWho> female margarita to male margarita "Wow, you were really good, 
            you sure you're a virgin?" ^_^ 
[Fwap!]

<DoctorWho> spoiler?

Sep 19 [16:44]
<Setok> nice new info about (yet again) a new possibility for dw to return 
        to the TV 
<DoctorWho> yawn 
<Xanta_Claus> but will it pass the invincor test? ;) 
<Whomiga> hehe - will it pass the anyone with any common sense at all test 
<Setok> whomiga: well at least it came from the BBC1 director this time 
<Setok> instead of the tabloid press 
<Whomiga> Oh, then it is definitely false ;-) 

Sep 19 [21:25]
<PeterJF> the 1984 max headroom pilot plays like they were 10 years into 
          the internet already 
<PeterJF> there's a lot of stuff in there that has since come to pass 
<DrFaust> Yeah, I noticed my new TV set doesn't have an off switch... 

Sep 20 [21:11]
<PeterJF> i actually feel like i've experienced daleks masterplan now. 
<PeterJF> a good telesnap might enhance that 
<PeterJF> but whatever 
<DoctorWho> I don't think there's enough material from masterplan to 
            construct a 'good' one 
<PeterJF> a telesnap might enhance that 
<PeterJF> ;-) 
<DoctorWho> Have you seen the two existing episodes? 
<PeterJF> yeah 
<PeterJF> they're on the daleks earlyears tape 
<TimesChamp> Like Marco Polo - actually there's no telesnaps for Marco 
             Polo. 
<PeterJF> i've seen the telesnaps of ep 7 too 
<DoctorWho> of MP or DMP? 
<PeterJF> DMP 
<PeterJF> feat of steven 
<PeterJF> +s 
<DoctorWho> feat of steven... no, that was 6 ^_^ 

Sep 20 [22:38]
<Kiri`> alden - hey what's with saddam's kid being a kiwi? 
<PeterJF> saddam prolly wants his kid somewhere -safe- 
<Alden> I think he moved here. As you would. :) 
<Kiri`> and he was allowed to get citizenship? 
<Kiri`> wow.. 
<Alden> "I'm going to attack and destroy America!!! Watch me!!!!" "That's 
        great, dad... Um, I'll just be over here..." 

Sep 20 [23:28]
<Oh_sod_it> it's EVIL - if god had intended you to be able to find an exact 
            point in a film, without rewinding back and forwards several 
            times past the point, he wouldn't have invented VHS 

Sep 22 [23:49]
[Geoff and Fen are up to their usual antics...] 
<GeoffWessel> I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS HORSESHIT FROM YOU BASEBALL LOVING 
              COCKROACHES!

<GeoffWessel> I INVENTED YELLING THREATS ON THIS BOARD MCCAFFREY! YOU RIDE 
              MY JOCK ALL OVER THE INTERSTATE! 
<Alden> Eeek, bad mental image 
<Fenric1> You *can* threaten, sure... But you are there, and your Goddamned 
          head is over there... 
<GeoffWessel> yeah you talk real big behind a keyboard ;-) 
<Fenric1> You talk real big with a keyboard shoved up your ass, boyo! ;> 
<GeoffWessel> and, in summary, baseball sucks my ass. Thanks and drive 
              safely. 
<Alryssa> To the guys having the pissing contest: We've seen them, we're no 
          longer impressed, now put them away.

<WhiteQueen> my sister's cat loves to play with plastic champagne stoppers, 
             and has actually gotten drunk by managing to get to one before 
             she could pick it up and wash it for him... 
<gordon-r-d> yeah, we wash 'em first, but all our cats have loved playing 
             with corks 
<gordon-r-d> but playing with the water coming out of the tap is a new one 
<NathanR> My mom says that Umber has taken to /drinking/ out of the tap 
          recently 
<WhiteQueen> NP - Blues Traveler, "Runaround"

<NathanR2> Thete is ThetAFK 
<Kiri`> how u know he's afk? 
<NathanR2> I'm just guessing from his lack of chat for the last 20 minutes 
           or so 
<Alryssa> well his lack of response might be a clue. ;) 
<Alryssa> Arrrrr! 
<Alryssa> ;D

<NathanR2> Signs that you've been using VI for Far Too Long... 
<PeterJF> 1. 
<PeterJF> typing "Signs that you've been using VI for Far Too Long..." 
[Fwap!] 
... 
<NathanR2> VI is the 'standard' Unix text editor 
<NathanR2> And it's not for the faint of heart 
<PeterJF> it's pronounced "six" 
 * PeterJF runs 
 * NathanR2 fwaps Pete 
 * Alryssa detoThetes
