Back. Hello Dean |
| 14:41 |
Phrynne |
My chair's a bit nervous, it seems |
| 14:41 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I enjoyed "The thing in the wall wants your small change". |
| 14:42 |
Phrynne |
Everyone I've sent that one to likes it. |
| 14:42 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Looks like it's practicing it's dance steps (your chair). |
| 14:42 |
Phrynne |
I wish I'd had 'the thing in the wall' in a couple of my apartments. |
| 14:42 |
Phrynne |
It might be -- this is Cymbal's creation from a year or two ago |
| 14:46 |
Phrynne |
I need to relog; back in a sec. |

Phrynne |
Chilly? |
| 14:50 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Well, it's fall, and this is a temperate climate. |
| 14:50 |
Phrynne |
True, and you probably shouldn't build a fire circle on a wooden stage. |
| 14:50 |
Phrynne |
Have you considered having a barbecue? |
| 14:51 |
Phrynne |
hi Andrea |

Hello, Ingo (and belated happy rez day) |

Thank you, Word! |

Welcome, Miss Groton (bows) |
| 14:55 |
Gronk Seriman |
Why, thank you, Chancellor Jarvinen! |
| 14:55 |
|
Phrynne returns with a platter of biscuits and a butter dish and knife and passes them around |
| 14:56 |
Gronk Seriman |
MMMmmmmmm! |

Hi, Menta. Welcome |
| 14:57 |
Menta (mentadent) |
Hi. hello |
| 14:58 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Actually, Phrynne, these are the tables I'm working on for a CVL-Caledon meeting place. |
| 14:59 |
Phrynne |
nice |
| 14:59 |
|
Ingo (tkb158) passes on the biscuits in fear of what they might do to his boyish figure. |
| 14:59 |
Phrynne |
Oh, Ingo, you'll work it off. |
| 14:59 |
Ingo (tkb158) |
Chasing deer? |
| 14:59 |
Phrynne |
I like that idea, Word -- it'll keep the coffee warm |
| 15:00 |
Phrynne |
Chasing deer, yes. I've taken back all the chickens at Oxbridge except for two exploding ones in the far crypt |
| 15:00 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) wonders what the biscuit do to his blood sugar. |
| 15:00 |
Phrynne |
they seemed to be at home there. |
| 15:00 |
Gronk Seriman |
A nice hibachi, too! |
| 15:00 |
Phrynne |
If you have butter with them, Mr. Elfbiter, the effect will be less. |

Modeled after tables I encountered at a conference in San Diego. |

Welcome, Agatha. |

Good evening sir |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome Cadenza. |
| 15:01 |
Cadenza (airidokeshi) |
Hello Sir. |
| 15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome to this week's Oxbridge Deans' Q&A. |
| 15:03 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This is an open meeting. All are welcome apart from those with an intent to create unpleasant chaos. |
| 15:03 |
Menta (mentadent) |
LOL - |
| 15:03 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Transcripts will be posted on our website after the meeting. |
| 15:03 |
Menta (mentadent) |
pirates, then? |
| 15:04 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(notice I didn't say anything about pleasant chaos). |
| 15:04 |
|
Menta (mentadent) smiles |
| 15:04 |
|
Agatha Macbeth has been known to cause unintentional chaos |
| 15:04 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Depends if the pirates bring enough rum to share with everyone. |
| 15:05 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, apart from butter and biscuits, what do you have for this week? |
| 15:05 |
|
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) pushes in hogshead of sima |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hi, Brenda. Welcome. |
| 15:05 |
Phrynne |
Well, all but one of the Advent Calendar gifts have arrived in my inventory, and I am shuffling them in and out of boxes. |
| 15:05 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Wonderful |
| 15:06 |
Phrynne |
I am trying to arrange them so that there is a pleasant sequence of them, and not only big things at the end. |
| 15:06 |
|
Brenda (brendaharden) sneaks in quietly and sits down |
| 15:06 |
Phrynne |
And I'm very pleased with what we have. I have one thing to finish myself, in case there's a problem with that last one, and that will mean we're covered. |
| 15:07 |
Phrynne |
Once that's done, I can breathe easy, and then not worry until Dec. 1. |
| 15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(Welcome, LadyLyndon) |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
I am very grateful to Star for being my assistant this year and helping to organize the Calendar -- and to everyone who has built, organized or contributed in one way or another. |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
As usual it is bit of a miscellany-- the theme is Steampunk but there are other things as well. I think people will be pleased -- at least I hope they will. |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
And that's all I have for today |
| 15:08 |
|
Phrynne looks back at Word |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you and your staff for all of the effort as well as your report. |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I have generated 5 bags of garbage,no keys yet |
| 15:14 |
Agatha Macbeth |
>.< |
| 15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Good to have that squared away (Dj's, dance floor, rides) |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
The rides build only needs the donation coin . I'll be sending out a nc on the lms to these locations soon, and I have the lm for the main build. so we should have a poster soon and get advertising under way |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
once th e-poster is and associated notecard is out. feel free to post the event in groups etc |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Looks back at Wordsmith |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thanks Andrea. Let me know about posters and coins. I can cover those for you. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've mostly been working on a couple of tangents. |
| 15:18 |
Menta (mentadent) |
sounds challenging .... |
| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The monthly sci-fi short-story discussions are now defined as being a CVL-Caledon (Oxbridge) collaboration. An opportunity to spread the name around a bit more. |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(It's trivial compared to working on a secant, Menta) |
| 15:19 |
Menta (mentadent) |
;o) |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'm also in the process of creating a meeting space on the east coast of Southend (land I have control over thanks to Stonehedg Magic). |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
The table in front of me is part of that process. |
| 15:21 |
Menta (mentadent) |
Great table - indeed |
| 15:22 |
Menta (mentadent) |
4 LI looks a bit excessive, don't you think? |
| 15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've also talked with Phrynne and Andrea about another idea. Doing a few short talks on math and patterns in nature in Andrea's pub. |
| 15:22 |
|
Gronk Seriman thinks the table lacks graham crackers, marshmallows, chocolate bars and whittled sticks. |
| 15:23 |
Agatha Macbeth |
A real tangent |
| 15:23 |
Menta (mentadent) |
LOL |
| 15:23 |
ღلadё ℝeynolds ღ (jadetyler) |
lol |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So, something informal to pull in a few more people, perhaps. |
| 15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Also led the sci-fi short story discussion on Thursday, then the Inventory class. Both went well. |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Pretty much it for this last week (the rest is a blur). |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Open for questions, comments, .... |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Elfbiter has his Thursday writing workshop, 11 am |
| 15:26 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Yup |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else? |
| 15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne's chair is practicing its dance steps. |
| 15:28 |
Phrynne |
Hmm. Maybe I should take it with me to the Bashful Peacock. |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
You might. |
| 15:28 |
Gronk Seriman |
Who used to organize the Advent Calendar gift display? Where little houses were set up to show how the gifts could be used? That was fascinating to see. |
| 15:29 |
Phrynne |
That wasn't me or staff; I'm not sure who did it. |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There are a number of Halloween activities around Caledon (look at the ISC notices) |
| 15:29 |
LadyLyndon |
(What's ISC?) |
| 15:29 |
Phrynne |
And I believe that display was in January |
| 15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Ravelli was doing it for a while. |
| 15:29 |
Phrynne |
(Independent State of Caledon chat) |
| 15:29 |
LadyLyndon |
oh |
| 15:29 |
LadyLyndon |

| 15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Well, not necessarily the chat, the notices. |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I'm sticking with some red / yellow leaves. |
| 15:31 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Maybe my Pumpkin Pi |
| 15:32 |
Phrynne |
red and yellow leaves for... |
| 15:32 |
|
Phrynne became lost in trying to determine what dance her chair is doing |
| 15:32 |
lovejoy2199 |
Irish. |
| 15:32 |
Phrynne |
definitely |
| 15:32 |
Cadenza (airidokeshi) |
A spider dance, perhaps..? |
| 15:33 |
Phrynne |
might be a hornpipe or reel. not bouncy enough for a jig |
| 15:33 |
Gronk Seriman |
It's not the Disco Duck. |
