Quick question - which of the 8TSOC is writing rumpletoe at live journal? I didn't see it on the wiki.
Rumpletoe is a player, is he not?
EDIT: Yes, he's a player who goes by Jegger here.
Yeah, it was weird to see my name in one of the interactions Never had that happen!

Stax
I just had a similar conversation with her. Nothing new to add, however. Except maybe that gracesmominnh works in a grocery store.

New conversation started at 4/24/07 6:25:50 AM.
staxnet1 (6:25:50 AM): Hi Sharon. Are you there. I wanted to thank you for adding me as friend on LJ and intoduce meself. I'm Stax.
"gracesmominnh" is away from the computer as of 6:26:07 AM.
"gracesmominnh" is back at the computer as of 6:31:57 AM.
gracesmominnh (6:32:07 AM): Hi Stax!
gracesmominnh (6:32:15 AM): sry I was on the phone
gracesmominnh (6:32:24 AM): gala checking up on me
staxnet1 (6:32:31 AM): No problem. Good morning.
staxnet1 (6:32:41 AM): Ah, I see. How is she doing?
gracesmominnh (6:33:45 AM): she gets up early to do yoga or something
gracesmominnh (6:34:02 AM): were trying to figure out if I should go meet him or not
staxnet1 (6:34:31 AM): Nico? That is a tough one. I saw he is trying to make contact. Any thoughts?
gracesmominnh (6:35:22 AM): well yucky says I shouldnt go and if he was nearby I think hed lock me in my room
gracesmominnh (6:35:41 AM): gala wants to find out what he wants
staxnet1 (6:36:39 AM): Hah. Yucky is very protective, huh? I kind of want to find out what he wants as well. He could have important information for us all. Has he tried to contact you since yesterday?
gracesmominnh (6:37:10 AM): I havent emailed him back yet
gracesmominnh (6:37:20 AM): oh crap how do i get rid of italics
staxnet1 (6:38:08 AM): Not sure. Hit the "I" icon in the formatting pane?
Are you ready for the 30th? What are you doing to prepare?
gracesmominnh (6:38:31 AM): haha thats supposed to be my question to you
staxnet1 (6:39:37 AM): Yes, well, I have been expanding my earthquake preparedness kit. Big time. gracesmominnh (6:40:22 AM): heh
gracesmominnh (6:40:30 AM): we are starting a garden
gracesmominnh (6:40:44 AM): and I cleaned up my bike
gracesmominnh (6:40:55 AM): tryinhg to find one of those trailers for grace
staxnet1 (6:41:23 AM): I have been working on my bike as well. The trailers are great. Long commute or are you a stay at home mom?
gracesmominnh (6:41:31 AM): its not too far
gracesmominnh (6:41:56 AM): I work at a grocery store
staxnet1 (6:42:02 AM): I see. I have about an hour by bike. I need the exercise.
staxnet1 (6:42:25 AM): A grocery store? That will be an interesting place once the oil shock arrives.
staxnet1 (6:43:33 AM): Keeping shelves stocked will be a trick. Seen anything interesting on the internet lately involving the pending crisis?
gracesmominnh (6:43:54 AM): just the stuff gala and mpathytest pass along
gracesmominnh (6:44:13 AM): yeah my boss is an idiot who doesnt believe theres a crisis coming
staxnet1 (6:45:00 AM): I have a few of those in my office as well. I worry that I am starting to sound like a conspiracy theorist.
staxnet1 (6:45:44 AM): I do what I can to warn them, but I suspect they won't take action until the crisis is upon us. I am worried that this is going to get nasty.
staxnet1 (6:46:39 AM): Which way are you leaning with respect to contacting Nico?
gracesmominnh (6:47:33 AM): its frustrating isnt it? you want to shake them hard sometimes
gracesmominnh (6:47:36 AM): I dunno
gracesmominnh (6:47:56 AM): If peeps think I should go, I could probably do it
gracesmominnh (6:48:16 AM): Uncle Frank says he will go w/me if we find someone to watch Grace for us
staxnet1 (6:49:21 AM): yes, if you go, take Uncle Frank. Don't go alone. If I still lived in Vermont, I'd offer to tag along. When might you reply to Nico?
gracesmominnh (6:50:09 AM): Im waiting for gala and yucky to hash it out
gracesmominnh (6:50:20 AM): he wont be up for awhile knowing him
staxnet1 (6:50:44 AM): What makes you think he is a late sleeper?
gracesmominnh (6:52:01 AM): heh Ive tried calling him in the mornings before
gracesmominnh (6:52:05 AM): plus the time difference
staxnet1 (6:53:11 AM): Oh, you mean Yucky. I thought you were talking about Nico.
In any case, I am thinking about contacting a local pirate radio station about the crisis. I am worried they will think I am another Berkeley crackpot, however.
gracesmominnh (6:53:49 AM): heh
gracesmominnh (6:53:58 AM): we can all be crackpots together then
staxnet1 (6:54:19 AM): indeed. So long as we keep our heads.
staxnet1 (6:54:46 AM): Do think G and Yuck will make a decision about contacting Nico today?
gracesmominnh (6:55:11 AM): I dunno they are both pretty stubborn
staxnet1 (6:55:39 AM): So its decision by committee then?
gracesmominnh (6:57:18 AM): heh maybe
gracesmominnh (6:57:26 AM): I still get to say no if I dont like the idea
gracesmominnh (6:57:35 AM): but I promised Id listen to everyone first
staxnet1 (6:58:24 AM): Good policy. We are going to need to listen to each other in the coming months. The final say should be yours. I agree. You do have to be careful, especially being a mom.
gracesmominnh (6:59:40 AM): right
staxnet1 (7:00:44 AM): Well, I need to jump in the shower and then catch my train. Public transportation today.
In any case, I hope we can talk again. It was a pleasure meeting you. Be careful and good luck to the Bo Sox tonight.
gracesmominnh (7:01:06 AM): thanks! Go SOX!!!!
staxnet1 (7:01:19 AM): bye
gracesmominnh (7:01:22 AM): bye

gracesmominnh (08:58:11 am): you got a bike?
coffeenews18 (08:58:34 am): Yeah I'm trying....Nope. I can walk to downtown though.
gracesmominnh (08:58:40 am): good

coffeenews18 (08:59:17 am): Yep small town..

coffeenews18 (09:00:02 am): and yes...we're pretty self suffient here
gracesmominnh (09:00:23 am): thats great, im trying to get to that too
gracesmominnh (09:00:55 am): I got Uncle Frank digging up a corner of his backyard for a garden
coffeenews18 (09:01:29 am): We're pretty good on the food side of things as we have a garden and fruit trees.
coffeenews18 (09:01:37 am): Good
coffeenews18 (09:02:42 am): So hear any more about Apr 30...any oil news?
gracesmominnh (09:02:46 am): I went to the hardware store and bought a bunch of seeds and I got little pots and Grace and I have been watching them grow--its been fun for her
gracesmominnh (09:03:38 am): only the stuff that gala and mpathytest pass along--Im busy working w/Yucky to get the website ready
coffeenews18 (09:04:31 am): reminds me that I've got to do that
gracesmominnh (09:04:41 am): do you think I should go meet Nico? Im getting a lot of different advice on that
coffeenews18 (09:06:57 am): not on your own...I think you should meet up with some of the 8tsoc
gracesmominnh (09:07:17 am): yeah but no one is close to me here and everyones so busy
coffeenews18 (09:07:26 am): Nico could be a whacko...I'm kind of not sure about him
gracesmominnh (09:07:41 am): if I go I think Uncle Frank can go w/me if we can find someont to watch grace
coffeenews18 (09:07:58 am): That's cruddo...
coffeenews18 (09:08:16 am): good idea...tell me about it when you go
gracesmominnh (09:08:27 am): yucky is really against it tho
gracesmominnh (09:08:33 am): he says we should just ignore him
coffeenews18 (09:09:51 am): Yeah...try talking it out with everyone cause Nico could either a creepo or something entirely normal.
coffeenews18 (09:10:19 am): I've gtg...breakfast is ready
gracesmominnh (09:10:21 am): haha uncle frank just put one of his old CDs on--The Clash Should I Stay or Should I Go
gracesmominnh (09:10:26 am): ok ttyl
coffeenews18 (09:10:30 am): good song
coffeenews18 (09:10:35 am): k bye
So Gracesmom is going to try to meet Nico...Apparently Yucky's really against it. Oh and she lives in New Hampshire (I think). Yay for older music...I love The Clash.
Anyway so I'm all thinking Gracesmom 'do the buddy system' but what if Nico is a terrorist and is going to blow up the oil refineries or something.

Wise One
Another livejournal group entry from gracesmom:
Quote:
This just keeps getting better and better (can you see me rolling my eyes??!!)
Now he wants to meet up, somewhere in NH because apparently he's nearby. Theres no way in hedoublehockeystix Im meeting him anywhere near my house.
And oh yeah its him. He gave me details about Denver that only someone who was there could tell, told me what we were wearing, what my daughter was playing with, what we said to him. Its the real deal, peeples.
Says we "owe him" and that "we need to talk" and "you cant imagine what the implications are". Same. creepy. s&#t. as. before.
He is not a happy camper.
I can't think straight. I just got off work, and Im tired and I got a todo list about a mile long. Im gonna go self-medicate with a pint of B&J and watch TV and pretend everythings normal for the rest of the night.
I promise, I'll be on AIM tomorrow and we can figure this out then.
It certainly sounds ominous...
Do you think that Nico didn't want 8TSOC to leak his suspicions?

Hey guys, I'm excited about this ARG! Since it's the thing to do, I'm posting my LJ. No Vox for me, as I just cannot handle Yet Another Social Networking Service!
Never had that happen!
