[20:08] I'm visiting my 92 yr old Dad in Missouri [20:08] that sounds fun, I haven't been it Misery in a long time! That's where I had basic training [20:08] Misery, lol [20:09] Fort Leonard Wood? [20:09] lol, that's what we called it bad then [20:09] yes mam [20:09] Not far from here [20:10] Bad storms went south of me today [20:10] seems like all of the mid-west has been hammered this week [20:11] All season [20:11] KY and WV have had bad floods too [20:12] we've had a ton of rain in Ohio but nothing too, too bad. Just wet [20:12] Shreveport had a 100 yr flood [20:12] Lousiana? [20:12] Yes, my home [20:13] LuckilyI am on highground [20:13] we are too, though if the creek by us floods it will make getting out difficult, not impossible but not enjoyable either [20:13] send it all to California, we'll take the whole thing [20:14] No, you will get mud slides [20:14] I know right Trent? I was talking to a friend who flew into LA a few weeks ago and he said from the air it was insane [20:14] true, you need it slowly [20:15] well apparently we're due for a Super Nino this winter, so it might not come as slow as we'd like [20:15] LA = Los Angeles not LA = Louisiana btw [20:15] i figured :) [20:16] I do cause confusion in that area [20:16] used to be a joke around here people would say, "I'm from LA ... lower Akron" which is a city north of me the southern part of which is pretty down turned [20:16] lol [20:17] How is your father doing Rovena? Gettig around well for 92? [20:18] An Asian manufacturing town once changed their to USA so their labels could say Made In The USA [20:18] i heard about that [20:18] wow ... that is kind of Genious actually [20:19] in kindergarten actually [20:19] lol [20:19] He has Parkinson and cancer so he has good days and bad. [20:19] that's tough, prostate cancer? [20:20] the claim is that all men will get prostate cancer if they live long enough but I have no idea if that is true [20:20] No don't know where it start but it is in the bones now. He could last a day or two years no clue [20:21] I know what you mean. That is how my mother in law was. [20:21] I am coming up here ever 5 weeks to see him until I runout of vacation in December [20:22] pretty stressful but worth it I think [20:22] [Owlhawk] hello [20:22] Hi Owlhawk [20:22] hi owlhawk [20:22] Hello OwlHawk. [20:23] I just dl'd a new chat service but I'm not sure I like it [20:23] It can be hard to find a good one [20:24] [Owlhawk] which one for which OS? [20:24] Nettalk for Windows 7 [20:24] [Owlhawk] I haven't tried that one. is it for IRC? [20:24] it works fine but it is boring [20:24] yah, IRC [20:25] I used to use ICE Chat on my old PC [20:25] [Owlhawk] I like vIRC that's linked off of the chat page [20:26] I'll take a look at that one some time :) [20:27] Anyone have plans for Lugh? [20:27] [Owlhawk] attending Kaleidoscope Gathering [20:28] Protogrove will do a ritual still being written [20:28] I had to look that one up Owlhawk, sounds fun [20:29] Does your PG have a set hearth culture Rovena? [20:30] [Owlhawk] http://ravensknoll.net/kg/ [20:30] No We currently have Heathen, Irish, Scottish, and ecletic [20:30] which culture for this High Day? [20:31] They want to honor warrior energy [20:32] I used to be part of a gay mens group who did eclectic rituals, mostly in ADF format and we had some pretty powerful ones [20:33] Cool [20:33] traditionalists don't like 'em though, lol [20:34] I am torn myself, I generally like a set culture but sometimes a broader approach can be useful [20:34] It can work or it can fall on its face [20:35] yeah, exactly [20:38] we had a couple fall flat too [20:39] If you do enough rituals, it will happen to everyone [20:40] true, true though I feel it happened less when focused on a distinct culture. That may be rose colored glasses though [20:42] I find it can often fail for one person but be a success for others [20:42] when I was running the Grove and leading most of the rituals I would often look at people's faces and think, "they're hating this" [20:43] but pretty often they would say "i took a lot out of this" lol [20:44] I gotta run, y'all have a great night. I'll try to come in next time [20:45] [Owlhawk] you too Jaime [20:48] I have one member who wants to sit back, uninvolved, and expects to have a electrifying experience happen to her [20:48] [Owlhawk] lol. [20:49] Hate this small laptop screen. I missed him [20:49] [Owlhawk] somehow I'm not surprised.

[21:16] [Owlhawk] two of those names never move and readd almost instantly after being booted [21:18] true [21:21] [Owlhawk] I've wondered what would happen if one of us banned them [21:21] you think they're bots?
