We used to have banana bread here.

(Walks over to the kitchen and pours himself a glass of cold water. Then returns, turns off a lamp nearby a sofa, and reclining, puts his feet up. Closes his eyes, and sighs)

Ahhh . . . that's better.

I'm watching Pride & Prejudice tonight, unfortunately will be stopping at a cliff hanger

. That'll be rough. Oh well, at least I've watched this film series before.

..we had a replicator here from an old Star ship, it was working last week.........it's just behind the large statue of Yoda.

Mercutio · 08-02-2005, 10:18 PM

Here is your banana bread, Lief. It's hot out of the oven too (but a bit crumbly).

Enjoy P&P

Lief Erikson · 08-02-2005, 10:52 PM

(Wakes up immediately!)

Excellent

.

P&P was great! I had to stop at a cliffhangar, you know, Mr. Darcy just having been rejected, but what I saw was very fun

. Good acting

.

(Takes the banana bread and quickly gets some refills of the cold water. Turns the lamp on)

I'm currently reading a highly fascinating book called "1776". Have any of you read it?

Lotesse · 08-02-2005, 11:30 PM

(stop rhyming now, I mean it!)
Anybody want a peanut?

Sorry - the princess bride is STUCK in my head right now for some strange reason...
Boy, I'd LOVE an apple martini right about now! And some peanuts...

Lief Erikson · 08-02-2005, 11:46 PM

The peanut bag is over there, in the kitchen. I wish I had "Princess Bride" stuck in my head

. All I've got is hideous woes over math

. Distressing indeed. Keep up your pleasure

. Have the peanuts. I prefer popcorn, myself. With M&Ms (Licks lips).

Lief Erikson · 08-02-2005, 11:51 PM

After lunch today, I went to sleep. I'd spent all that morning debating with people on Entmoot, so my dream carried the experience on. I dreamed that jerseydevil returned to the 'Moot and instantly launched into the debate threads, and I dreamed that I met brownjenkins in real life.

Lotesse · 08-03-2005, 12:00 AM

That is so trippy, with the dreaming - for a while there, I, too, was having all sorts of entmoot dreams.
Well, just got back from Blockbuster, and we got some popcorn, anybody want some? We got a huge tub of it!

Lief Erikson · 08-03-2005, 12:01 AM

YES! Now you're cheering me up

. Salted? We never have salted at home, too much concern about getting butter on the furniture or rugs . . . YES IT'S SALTED!!! I'm happy. Which films did you get?

Lotesse · 08-03-2005, 12:17 AM

Nothing too highbrow, I'm afraid - just series reruns of "Alias", but they're juicy guilty pleasure to watch. I'd never seen the show on TV because I never watch normal TV, but shows are fun to watch on DVD where you can see the entire season in a couple sittings.

katya · 08-03-2005, 12:37 AM

Not to mention, no commercials. It's the only way to go for shows like that.

Yeah, I can well understand that. I don't watch any regular TV either; just the episodes of interesting shows on DVD.

I'll watch Alias with you

. It'll be a first time. It looks like a fun action adventure, though. My father says it's too late to watch a movie tonight, even a fifty minute episode of something, but I disagree >-D.

I do enjoy some things that aren't highbrow, by the way . . . like James Bond

.

I enjoy that fact when watching Original Series Star Trek episodes

. And A-Team, Buck Rogers, Avengers, "The Saint," and some other fun shows. Plainly, for light entertainment I go for action.

katya · 08-03-2005, 01:01 AM

Actually, I've never seen any of those shows, except an episode or two of Star Wars. As for my light entertainment, I like to watch shows I don't have to follow episode by episode. I'm actually really into Beyond Belief: Fact of Fiction and X-Files. Or Entmoot, though of course that could maybe work for "highbrow" as well.

trolls' bane · 08-03-2005, 01:11 AM

I'm probably going to watch The Planet of the Apes (again) and get up late (as usual). I'll probably do nothing all day except panic about packing when I am actually ahead of schedule (just as before).

Oh! I forgot. I burned four episodes of the radio series X Minus One. The episodes I'll probably listen to will be "And the Moon Be Still As Bright", or "Mars is Heaven."
Speaking of which, "The Saint" is a radio drama. If I remember right, it was about an owner of a mortuary that solved cases. Same actor as "The Whistler," I think.
I'm not staying on long. Maybe not even until 11. (Quarter past ten, now)

Lief Erikson · 08-03-2005, 01:23 AM

(Munches on some of the delectable popcorn)

"The Saint" is a television series, a fairly old one. There are several other shows I like a good deal more, but it is fun to watch these occasionally.

I haven't seen those. X-Files is an X-Men show, correct? I read one of the comics stories once. Are the episodes good?

katya · 08-03-2005, 01:23 AM

I'm working on getting my room ready for my year-long absence. And how did I seemingly decide was the best way to do that? So far, it's basically take everything out of my closet and put it back in again. It's hard work though. I think I need some caffeine... or maybe some speed.... (

Actually, it's some sort of show on UFOs, I think...

Lief Erikson · 08-03-2005, 01:27 AM

Where are you going, and will you still be able to access Entmoot?

trolls' bane · 08-03-2005, 01:28 AM

Hey, does anyone know how to do an IMG code for HTML format?

You mean on my vacation or Katya's stay in Japan?

Katya's stay in Japan. I didn't know it was happening, and was curious. I don't care about your vacation.

Where are you bound, trolls' bane?
