[01:56:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, i dunno what happened to your shat this morning but i was ready to kick exec's ass for the weather reports every time you rejoined
[01:59:24] <chromas> Saw that. I daleted my info from exec so it won't talk next time
[01:59:28] <chromas> Then I can sneak it
[02:00:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> yay! bedtime!

[02:12:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, yes, so instead of being hung over this morning i was still drunk until like 11am. with all the sour stomach and gut rumblings you get after drinking too much.
[02:13:05] <chromas> No mid-drank sammich?
[02:13:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> sammich just slows alcohol absorption, doesn't make it not get absorbed.
[02:13:40] <chromas> But it tastes great

[10:05:16] <FatPhil> new pub for me, a newish celler bar in the basement of the old market. great environment.
[10:05:44] <FatPhil> if it wasn't for the terrible piped music.
[10:07:15] <FatPhil> 4 days ago I was in one of my favourite pubs for beer, and the piped music was astounding. as i walked through the door Hocus Pocus was just cranking up.
[10:09:45] <FatPhil> and just as left Epitaph was finishing.

[10:51:52] <FatPhil> i have all focus's albums on vinyl
[10:51:54] <FatPhil> sue me
[10:52:33] <Bytram> I had bought a copy of that album from someone's yard sale when I was a teen... and it was scratched up pretty bad, but it did not stop me from playing it enough to make it even worse

[10:56:31] <Bytram> heh, older than I thought: ""Hocus Pocus" is a 1971 song from Moving Waves, the second album by Dutch rock group Focus. It was written by guitarist Jan Akkerman and flautist-keyboardist Thijs van Leer."
[11:02:39] <Bytram> nope. new vlc file did not seem to help. Could be a bad D/L

[11:14:47] <Bytram> lead or bass?
[11:14:52] * Bytram assumes lead
[11:15:34] <FatPhil> had quite a strong jazz influence, but rocked like hell
[11:15:42] <FatPhil> lead
[11:15:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> fuck, yall done been talkative this mornin
[11:16:07] <Bytram> what I found so amazing is that live piece sounded like it was *at least* 20% faster than the original, and he *still* made it look effortless!
[11:16:19] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: how's the hangover?
[11:16:34] <Bytram> or should we type more quietly this morning
[11:16:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> hard to tell from the background oldness
[11:16:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> so not too bad i guess
[11:17:32] <FatPhil> I was at a beer festival yesterday, but woke as fresh as a daisy this morning
[11:17:45] <FatPhil> so the drinking started at 10
[11:18:04] <Bytram> pfft, 10pm?
[11:18:08] <Bytram> ;)
[11:18:14] <FatPhil> no point wasting a sunday on sobriety
[11:18:32] <Bytram> speak for yourself... 25 years and counting
[11:19:02] <FatPhil> 5 new beers today, but alas that has to stop, as I'm now on the bus back home
[11:19:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> i had a big margarita friday evening then got tricked into doing shots with our realtor until bloody midnight
[11:20:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd planned on stopping after the margarita (1/2 cup of tequila) but ended up with another 8-10 shots in me before the night was up
[11:20:10] <FatPhil> there's a wonderful regular at my local who constantly drinks tequile shots, and just once a year I join her, and it kills me.
[11:20:36] <FatPhil> it takes me a year to build up the courage to do it agaih
[11:21:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> well, i say shots. they were doubles i guess because the glasses were overly large for shot glasses.
[11:21:39] <FatPhil> bytram: you've been dry for 25 years? wowsers.
[11:22:02] <Bytram> yuppers! Was rough at first, but sure don't miss it now.
[11:22:09] * Bytram chuckles at hangovers
[11:22:49] <FatPhil> I'm a total taste obsessive, I love food and drink, and the idea of not drinking another beer or port or whisky (no 'e') is like never eating bacon again
[11:22:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, if i had any alcoholic tendencies, how bad hangovers suck nowadays would cure me.
[11:22:56] * Bytram remembers all three he had, and none too fondly
[11:23:37] <Bytram> yeah, took a while to get used to going out for spicy szechuan food and not getting a tsing tao beer to go with it.
[11:23:40] <FatPhil> I got the alcoholics' gene from my mother, I simply don't get hangovers so there's no negative feedback.
[11:24:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> mind you, i'm not giving up the pleasure of an ice cold beer after hot, outdoor work. i'm just not into sending any friends down with it anymore.

[11:40:11] <FatPhil> he kinda ran out of material, and then failed to stop
[11:40:51] <Bytram> it's my last day off of this week's vacation... me is finding it hard to get motivated to push out a story. Woke up at 0530 and should prolly have gone back to bed.
[11:41:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> don't look to me for motivation, i been slacking pretty hard most of the year
[11:42:06] <Konomi> no time for stories only games and code
[11:43:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> i generally gotta choose between fishing or games. rarely have time for both.
[11:43:25] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: fwiw, we still have several systems waiting to be upgraded to doubled disk space.
[11:43:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah but we don't actually need it, so i'm inclined to let them wait until we gentoo them.
[11:44:07] <Bytram> did we ever work out how to move / resize the partition to actually take advantageof the extra space on the systems we already upgraded?
[11:44:08] <Konomi> honestly I've been trying to remove time consuming stuff from my life

[11:44:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> not me, i've mostly optimized out everything that ain't enjoyable wastes of time.
[11:45:03] <Konomi> trying to be of the mind set of "If you're bored don't find something new, you probably already have things to do"
[11:45:41] <Bytram> yeah, like housekeeping, laundry, and other easily-oft-postponed tasks
[11:45:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, you're trying for responsibility instead of maximum enjoyment. can't help you there.
[11:45:50] <Bytram> at least I found that so
[11:46:42] <Konomi> house work takes up so much time
[11:46:55] <Bytram> 'zactly

[12:00:04] <Konomi> see you later ~
[12:07:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, it's daylight and not hot yet so i'm thinking now would be a far better time to work on the church than later when it's a hundred degrees with equal humidity.
[12:08:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> no electricity until the french drain gets put in and some electrical work gets done, so no AC for a while.
[12:08:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, think i'll do that.
[12:09:50] <FatPhil> hmmmm, I'm on this bus for a couple more hours, so I might work on a new caching algorithm I invented last week.
[12:10:22] <FatPhil> brought the laptop with me for a reason, I think, and the reason was coding, I think.
