Good night Pip! I have to get up early tomorrow too... have a meeting right at 8:00 in town that will take all morning... But I am sure I will check in over coffee tomorrow am....
Ruh roh.... looks like we have another shooting in VA. We didn't get our guy this afternoon like we hoped.
To: HairOfTheDog
Oh no! Kinda late, isn't it? I'm thinking the guy is using a work vehicle...
To: 2Jedismom
I think we should just all be sure and get in the same hotel and actually just sit around in a room or something and visit! Maybe we could find one that had some meeting rooms. We wouldn't need a huge one, and maybe they'd have a big TV and DVD player. Yeah, that's the ticket! We could watch the movie while we're snacking, then visit and play whistles, mandolins, etc!
It could be our base of operations to go out and see RoTK; Disney, Canaveral, Sea World, all those places!
To: 2Jedismom
Well, we don't know that it is related... It does look like it is right alongside the highway, and it is a headshot. The others have not been headshots.
To: 2Jedismom
Take that back.... I guess it is at a Home Depot. I was just seeing flashing lights from a roadblock on the highway.
To: HairOfTheDog
This is terrible. Where does Corin live again?
To: 2Jedismom; Corin Stormhands
Richmond I think... Think he works near the capitol.
To: HairOfTheDog
Sounds like the sniper...I didn't know they had anyone in custody...
This is just dreadful.
To: 2Jedismom
Yeah, this clears the guy they have been grilling for five hours back in Baltimore.
That happened this afternoon... They had a guy who was an ex-marine, was shot mildly over the weekend by his girlfriend in some dispute, was treated and released from the hospital. But they discovered an AR-15 in his white van that had a rack on top, and he had a "Gihad in America" (his spelling) note on his dashboard. They might have discovered tarot cards. It was smelling pretty bad for him even though the particular rifle they found did not match the gun used...
But the fact that he is has been questioned seriously as a suspect in these sniper killings and is obviously having trouble with his girlfriend... He has really had a bad day.

Hi, Hair. I just got in, will fill out the poll when I get a minute.
Not sure how I feel about the timing, depends on when we'd see it after Christmas, if we selected that option. Just don't want to miss any time with the kids when they're home and am not sure I can talk them into going. My wife will definitely go, though.
I could perhaps make the 18th in Fl, but don't know about anywhere else. Are we still considering renting the entire theatre?
Well, I am definitely not a teetotaler, am more a hobbit on that score, enjoy pints just fine, as you'd expect from someone with Irish ancestry.
However we decide it, though, will try my hardest to be there.
To: Corin Stormhands
I haven't yet, but I wouldn't be averse to trying....

RE: the entmoot date poll
This is a year from now, right (release of RotK)?

Hey guys, here's a good example of why you should
never use one of those online translation sites! I was tryint to change this German article on Viggo Mortensen into English, but inside I think I got something which seems a little rough to say the least! Hehe...some comic relief perhaps? :-)
--------------------------------------------------
In an interview Aragorn actor Viggo Mortensen tells difficult handling fans about his artistic passions beyond the playthingplaything plaything and -- laboriously translates of Anniki.
Viggo Mortensen is a singular person. Not only that the man a turning plan has, most actors to it to bring Koffeinpillen (or worse) would take, it deepens also in such a way into its other inclinations -- poetry, painting, photography, politics, music and more -- like it it also in its roles does... As the legendary reports of Mortensens devotion at the set of the film MR. THE RINGS, where the rumor went around the fact that Viggo prefers it in the forest in its Aragorn costume to run around in its role to over really sink -- should cause also his decided loyalty and continuous Miteinbeziehung into of Los Angeles of other art scenes your respect. Before the world played moved over Mortensens entered into the Tolkiens canon, had itself Viggo already deeply into the art scene embedded. Particularly by its poems (of 1993 "Ten load Nigth" to today "Concidence OF MEMORY"), its painting and photography (some galleries place its works out) his sprachaufnahmen and readings as for example with its ex woman (a Punk icon), Buckethead, Jerry steel and Karen Finley, and many different. Thus it did not only come the Viggo a reading into Santa Monicas of inestimable and nevertheless independent bookshop, "Midnight Special" held, which admits only recently gave that she cannot afford longer the up-snapping rents of the promenade determined by chain shops, but gave also Morphizm an interview. All this, after he had flown in the morning before it to few hours to the city, freezing and exhausts from its trick in Montana. It was not a surprise that Viggo came barefoot and with langaermeligen things from the "American Indian Movement" and was jubilant taken up by the quantity, before he publishes few its poems from its new collection "Concidence an OF MEMORY", at the equally independent Perceval press read out. And although both, Viggo and Percevals Herausgeberin, Pilar Perez, had planned, to keep that did not stop the schedule the untiring "Renaissance" man everyone of its fans the attention to admit, about which they dreamed. It vibrated its hands, posierte for innumerable photographs and reads some even its naked feet photographs. That is the reason why I tiredly for hours behind it -- there our interview was pushed out, I placed itself forwards I helped the peace of the ehrfuerchtigen "Midnight Special" to keep upright -- I sat not or weighted. It was sometime by and the clock indicated 2 o'clock in the morning and I felt like an asshole it now still around an interview too please. But it was in the last hours of the night as it it at the beginning was just as enthusiastisch.
And it even gave a bottle Whisky to me on the way... As I said, an untiring individual Question: "Concidence OF MEMORY" does not close search with a famous quotation of Kant "the applause of many, it is rarely honest and meant sincere. But look for the acknowledgment of some few, count however weighs not the voices." How does the quotation affect your work and how much means it you? VM: Well, I think it am well different to listen... But, if you do not make things for its agreement... that are exactly which the quotation to express want, but it leaves me to think to never do things for a public -- and I will not also do it. I mean, I give these dedications to my public, when thanks for it bought her this book, for it it from who white where here ago came. Some these people came from Texas, read Vegas, Canada and I know not where ago... Question: I believe someone got along out.

Richmond I think... Yup. So far the sniper has only been as far south as Fredericksburg, which is still an hour north of here.
But I used to live pretty close to the Falls Church location and still have lots of friends who live near there.

I thought we were doing that at ksen's house.

Rosie, have you decided to join the insanity and write? Possibly! I don't know if I could find the time, and I know for a FACT it would be lousy, but I guess that's almost the point, isn't it? here is where I told what I MIGHT could use as a plot. Unoriginal, but could be kinda fun to come up with the group of characters and such.

All this, after he had flown in the morning before it to few hours to the city, freezing and exhausts from its trick in Montana. LOL! Funny thing is, even garbled, I recognize this interview! It was posted on TORN a couple weeks ago....

Thanx to Scott for that!
Unfortunately, I can't get the "more" link to work so the source page might be gone, or my browser is acting possessed, can't tell.... but it was posted at morphizm.com.
