<kend^> poor billy, i feel SO sorry for him
<Regnad_Kcin> i do hope that's taken out of context

<Regnad_Kcin> no wait
<uhmeow> how very belgian of you

<klokwkdog> ah, those cheap Routers! Next time, buy a Cisco, Tonto!
<Regnad_Kcin> 139 is dde server or something
<uhmeow> the crying of 139?
<Mr_Yamamoto> 139?
<klokwkdog> it's the Printer Share port
<Mr_Yamamoto> Farenhiet 139
<Regnad_Kcin> the default firewall port in mirc is 1080
<LiliLamont> I tried to find the number of the DCC port via Google
search, no go
<LiliLamont> reg: 1080 = "socks"?
<klokwkdog> which is the default resolution of interlaced HDTV
<LiliLamont> the cat
<LiliLamont> ?

paul i" by david a. yallop

<Mr_Yamamoto> Dirty or Clean?
<Regnad_Kcin> that's what mirc seems to use
<klokwkdog> We are perhaps converging on another Pauli principle, like
1/137...
<uhmeow> we're getting season 2 of the sopranos for a second time here,
never season 3
<klokwkdog> Another Wayside Attraction , anyone?
<Dexter_fong> Can Lili/Doc pass the Turing Test?
<kend^> st. pauli girl principle?
<LiliLamont> ask us anything...
<klokwkdog> I failed it twice so far!

<Dexter_fong> Season 4 starts this fall I believe
<Mr_Yamamoto> No, it was season 4
<klokwkdog> we who can't get HBO salute you...
<Bunnyboy> 18 months between new eps, this time. Shut the show outta
Emmy consideration.

<Regnad_Kcin> caruso is in that new CSI spinoff
<Dexter_fong> Yes Reg
<Regnad_Kcin> I love CSI 8^)
<klokwkdog> Can you imagine anthropology students 500 years from now
trying to decipher these chats?
<LiliLamont> Hey, it's a job. Better than I've got at the moment.
<kend^> i watch it while the first hour of #firesign is on every week
<HasNoName> I can't understand them a week later!
<Bunnyboy> He's only gonna be making 75K an ep, compared with 300K for
Sheen, and 70K apiece for all the supporting regulars.
<Dexter_fong> They won't be anthropology students, Klok< they'll be
humorologists
<klokwkdog> They'll publish them in illuminated pages, like The Annotated Alice ,
trying to explain each line...
<LiliLamont> That poor baby!
<LiliLamont> Literacy is going into the toilet...
<Mr_Yamamoto> My heart bleeds for him
<klokwkdog> Yeah, there's no respect for cable - what's Friends getting,
$2 mill. per ep each?
<Dexter_fong> And coming up empty
<Bunnyboy> Another possible motive: Every every EVERY other regular name
actor on the show got an Emmy nomination...except Pore Rob.
<LiliLamont> I think I can count on one hand the number of times I've
seen Friends.
<klokwkdog> Can you imagine being agent for someone who's contracted a
year at a time, has been on one TV sitcom for umpteen years and you get
20% of $50M/yr?
<kend^> i have never seen "friends". does that make me culturally
deprived or depraved?
<Dexter_fong> Indifferent
<LiliLamont> How do I get that gig?
<Mr_Yamamoto> I could live w/that
<Bunnyboy> Lili: I've never made it through a whole ep of FRIENDS. Just
can't fathom it.
<klokwkdog> it's hard to miss, Ken
<LiliLamont> It makes you culturally advantaged.
<Mr_Yamamoto> I havwen't either
<Dexter_fong> It's no Mr. Ed
<Bunnyboy> To be fair, I've sat through very few episodes of CHEERS,
although I'm sure that some of them were quite fun.
<Mr_Yamamoto> I miss Mr Ed
<kend^> since i've over 50 now, i generally stick to cbs and pbs
<Dexter_fong> Yeah and I miss Johhny
<LiliLamont> I think the only reason I've seen any of it is that it was
on some flight I took between films.
<uhmeow> and speakng of mr ed
<Mr_Yamamoto> I ignored that show
<Mr_Yamamoto> Buncha barflies, who cares
<Dexter_fong> Yes Cat?
<klokwkdog> what's to fathom? it's like the traveling salesman problem.
you have 4 white players in a 4-camera TV sitcom set in a city that is
full of non-white characters. The graphing problem is then to map these
characters so that they NEVER intersect with a non-white player....
<uhmeow> i watched 10 minutes of freineds once
<LiliLamont> Barfly! Now that was an interesting film.
<klokwkdog> it's definitely np-complete
<Regnad_Kcin> <@kend^> since i've over 50 now, i generally stick to cbs
and pbs

<Bunnyboy> And Kirstie Alley in the Faye Dunaway role. 'Course, from
what I hear, it wouldn't be "stretch casting"...

for episode 10???
*** DocTechnical is now known as LiliLamont
*** DocTechnical [~doc...@24.44.170.237] has left IRC
<klokwkdog> it's called "The Nightly Business Report"

pornography
<Bunnyboy> Doc: Host a panel discussion.
<Regnad_Kcin> no redeeming social value..... sounds about right
<Mr_Yamamoto> ?
<klokwkdog> It's going to take more seasons than that "24" show, right DT?
<LiliLamont> Y: Porn for conservatives. They're seriously into kink.
<Mr_Yamamoto> Jerry Springer
<Regnad_Kcin> stick those psychic shows in there and i'd be pleased as punch

show thinks?

<DocTechnical> problem?
<Regnad_Kcin> if i had one it'd be no prob :) owell
<Regnad_Kcin> hopefully someone out there is taping them all
<DocTechnical> in that you have to buy one?
<DocTechnical> reg: if anyone is, it would be bfwestley
<DocTechnical> he videotapes the gigs
<Regnad_Kcin> wow, neat
<DocTechnical> live in the studio
<Regnad_Kcin> heheh... next we need to talk him into capping the vids
and compressing them
<DocTechnical> that's why there are those cool realmedia files up on the
firesign site - courtey of bfw

<Regnad_Kcin> oic now, cool!
<uhmeow> the lads are planning to release some of their stuff on CD
<DocTechnical> hmmm, the vodka tonics are starting to kick in :)
<DocTechnical> yes, that's true cat
<bfwestley> they have to get permission from XM though
<kend^> vodka? tovarisch!
<Regnad_Kcin> they give quite alot away on the website
<uhmeow> i thought they became firesign property after the broadcasts, bf
<Regnad_Kcin> i'm just a greedy prick and want it all :)
<DocTechnical> i think after they have enough material in the can,
they'll do a 'columbia dear friends' style compilation
<DocTechnical> k^: Lili wants to know if you're out of your f*cking mind
... Grey Goose for us, thanx
<bfwestley> just the material cat, not the actual broadcast audio
<DocTechnical> found a local package store that sells it for $24/bottle
<uhmeow> you can buy Micheal Packer's archives, regnad

<Regnad_Kcin> with one of the cast members (I forget which) who was
looking for a cyrillic font
<kend^> i have friend that went to russia for business. two rules for
vodka. 1) never recap a bottle, you MUST empty it. 2) every drink
requires a toast
<Regnad_Kcin> wonder if he ever found it :) I sure as hell let him down
<Regnad_Kcin> sounds like they'd be fun at drinking games
<Regnad_Kcin> "scoff a bottle every time someone says "hey, norm!""
<kend^> he also said he thought he was a good drinker until he tried to
keep up with them
<Regnad_Kcin> freeow.. i gave up drinking a long time ago
<Regnad_Kcin> used to be quite good at it... i drove home from a dead
concert with a gallon of southern comfort in me and other assorted chemicals
<kend^> i haven't had an alcoholic drink in over a month. mainly coffee
and water now. much better on the liver, for sure
<Regnad_Kcin> i remember not being able to "feel the car"
<kend^> been there, done that, puked on the t-shirt
<Regnad_Kcin> 'course, i smoke like a fiend
<kend^> yeah, tar will kill me way before alcohol comes close
<Regnad_Kcin> then i moved in with a genuine alcoholic roommate
<Regnad_Kcin> and just kinda quit drinking.. not conciously
<kend^> uh oh. not a good thing (a la martha stewart)
<Regnad_Kcin> a case by 3:3- pm was quite a site
<kend^> i can take it or leave it, i never drink alone, and i'm alone
most of the time
<Regnad_Kcin> when i start going to the vic again i'll drink... check
this out for a night:
<Regnad_Kcin> they play 3 movies
<Regnad_Kcin> they serve liquor
<Regnad_Kcin> you can smoke
<Regnad_Kcin> there are tables to sit at
<kend^> movie theatre with drinks AND smoking? sounds like many code
violations to me!
<Regnad_Kcin> oh, those are fun times
<Regnad_Kcin> oh oh oh oh, fun fun!
<Regnad_Kcin> AND they used to have a $10 fridays
<Regnad_Kcin> for unlimited pitchers/"well drinks"
<kend^> this is in chicago? that's almost close enough for me to want to
drive over
<Regnad_Kcin> i remember getting plastered by the end of the first movie
and laughing hysterically all through the pellican brief
<Regnad_Kcin> chicah... 4 blocks from me
<Regnad_Kcin> chicago
<Regnad_Kcin> belmont and sheffield
<uhmeow> sounds like japan. drinking and smoking are obligatory in
theatres. only they're EXPENSIVE
<kend^> wunderbar! i'll remember that. now i need to find a friend
(preferably female) to go with me

<DocTechnical> is anyone still here?
<Regnad_Kcin> linda sorta
<Regnad_Kcin> kinda sorta
<DocTechnical> i had to bypass the hardware firewall to get reconnected
<DocTechnical> i don't know why
<Regnad_Kcin> 8^) that's part of the fun of firewalls
<Regnad_Kcin> alot of hassle... sorry that i can't tell you what caused
it in this instance
<DocTechnical> i wish i knew, there's something about my firewall port
settings that dalnet doesn't like, though I'll be damned if i can figure
out what it is
<Regnad_Kcin> well... dalnet's servers actually sniff out ports
<DocTechnical> i will have to email kline.dal.net with the msgs i get
back from their server and hope someone can tell me what i have to do to
get it going - i have port 113 wide freakin' open, that's the ident
(authentication) port
<Regnad_Kcin> and i believe kinda want/require specific ones to be open
<Regnad_Kcin> that's what i was getting at, the identd
<Regnad_Kcin> in mirc's settings, try to get the firewall config working
<Regnad_Kcin> that may solve all the problems
<DocTechnical> yet when the firewall is connected, the dalnet server
keeps coming back with "ident not found" then a bunch of error msgs
talking about constant abuse requires that ident daemon is running on my pc
*** Dex_Logging is now known as Dexter_Fong

<Dexter_Fong> ooops!
<Regnad_Kcin> erm... does windows handle identd internally, or is mirc
handliing it?
<Regnad_Kcin> im not sure
<DocTechnical> so if i have mirc running with its ident daemon, and if i
have port 113 open for both incoming and outgoing packets, why does
dalnet refuse me?
<DocTechnical> i think they want more than 113 open, but that's just a guess
<Regnad_Kcin> well... kline is often associated with a trojan
<Regnad_Kcin> suppose its a vague possibility

and probably totally uninteresting to anyone except those involved.
Should there be a mutiny on the list demanding that this content be
