[INTERACTION] [EMAIL] Stevie 12/13

From Stevie to my 'daughter':

Quote:

Alexandra,

That sounds like the one Uncle Seth is stuck on too. He said he was going to back off and look at all the information from the beginning before he sent any more e-mails. He's afraid someone will notice, but he didn't say who would notice.

My Daddy thought everything was equally lucky. Uncle Seth thinks nothing is lucky.

We have lots of different decorations up, Kwanzaa, Chanukka, Christmas, Yule, New Years. Davina says it is good to learn about other people's celebrations and find out what makes them unique. I just like them because it means lots of different cookies, candies and cakes.

I learned a new game at lunch. One of the chefs is from Tel Aviv, and she taught us the dreidel game, and we played it with m&ms. We even learned a songs for all the different holidays too. Do you know these songs?

I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play.

the Tannenbaum song.

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Your leaves are ever faithful.
Not only green when summer glows,
But in the winter when it snows.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Your leaves are ever faithful.

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
You are the tree most loved.
How oft you've given me delight
When Yule fires were burning bright.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
You are the tree most loved.

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Your faithful leaves will teach me
That hope and love and constancy
Give joy and peace eternally.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Your faithful leaves will teach me.

And The First Noel

The first Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
in fields as they lay,
In fields where they lay
keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
that was so deep.
Noel Noel Noel Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far,
And to the earth it gave great light,
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel Noel Noel Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!

And we learned a Kwanzaa poem.

Kwanzaa comes along
Just one time a year
We're so happy it's come
Weave a m'keka
Lets drink from the kikumb�
Zawadi for everyone
Celebrate for seven days
Light the Kinara
Let's let the holiday shine
Let's all get the Kwanzaa spirit
And we'll have a real good time.

Your singing friend,
Stevie

Hi Stevie,

Well, I hope you get to see the movie soon. I really think you'll like it. There are some scary parts, but remember how the book turns out in the end and I think you will be alright.

Aslan can Protect your daddy whether he's in Narnia or still in our world. Remember what he tells Lucy when she fears she'll never see him in our world: "I am [in your world, too], but there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name." Your daddy is being protected. And no, he's not a tame lion. I love that they repeat that in the books so much. That's why he can Protect so well. If he were tame, he'd just be a big kitty. Your mommy sounds like a very wise woman, to talk about Narnia that way. I think she and I would be friends. Maybe I'll write her a letter soon.

Now about this trail of clues from your daddy. Yes, I'm helping to work on that, too. It seems you have a lot of friends back here on Earth and we all want to help you. We're stuck on luck. I know your daddy and Seth don't believe in luck, but what if they did? What do you think they might call lucky? What I mean is, has anything especially good happened to him or to Seth that, even though he doesn't believe in luck, other people might say, "That was sure lucky!" Has he ever narrowly escaped trouble or found something really good? Ask Seth next time you see him, it might make him remember something he's forgotten. Thankfully, it looks like Seth is accepting help from you and your friends now. You show those grown ups, Stevie. Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

I will give my family, especially Libby, extra hugs from you and Raidar next time I see them, I promise. Speaking of Libby, she has another message for Raidar: Jerxvumper ivqzgrafmpz gvgmvcbckg.

I will give my family, especially Libby, extra hugs from you and Raidar. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you down here on earth. For Wasilei and the Station!

Your loyal friend and servant,
Caspian the Tenth

PS: I am trying to think of a new picture to take of Charlie the Intel Man. If you think of anything funny, draw me a picture or give me a suggestion!

Understand programming restraints. Stevie's friends stuck on Steven Mae puzzle. Clues point to luck, lucky, seven, maya angelou, and possibly the chinese zodiac. Puzzle assumed to be directed at Seth Adams. Requests: One. Seth Adams birthday with year. Two. Combinations of above clues in relation to Seth Adams. Three. Any unusually fortunate events in Seth Adam's history. Four. Take good care of Stevie.

Received the following response:

Subject: to serve and protect

Greetings, Caspian the tenth, son of Adam,

I guess if Aslan stayed around all the time, that they would forget that he is not TAME. I love how he takes the deep magic and shows how if the White Witch had understood it completely she would have known that Aslan's sacrifice would transform the ritual into something joyful. The last book was scary. When the monkey made the poor donkey wear the lion skin, trying to turn him into a false Aslan, then combinding him with Tash. Calling Donkey, "Tashlan." I thought it was nice at the end when the Calormen Man asks why Aslan is allowing him to enter into the new Narnia. He was a devoted follower of Tash, and Aslan says that he did his best to live a good life and be helpful to others. That is why I think all religions are good � if you try to live a life that is good, then one day you will go to a happy place where all your friends are waiting for you. I also like the Silver Chair, Jill and Eustace have to look for the clues that will help them find Rilian. But they mess up some of them. They also nearly mess up the last clue too.

The station is getting dressed up for the holiday time. The plain areas are getting all dressed up. Dr. Martha thinks that some of the butterflys she ordered for the Garden will be coming out of their chrysalis soon and then we will have flying decorations!

Raidar wants to learn how to give hugs. I will have to ask SAI Pets to give him a special update for Christmas.

He also said to tell Libby:

P.S. Maybe Charlie the Intel Man could take a ride on a Banana Split Boat!

Vigenere keyword: serve

Regarding requests: One, unable to locate documentation of Seth Adams complete birthday. Two, seven is statistically significant in rolls of two dice, seven dwarfs, seven deadly sins, seven virtues, "The Trumpton fire brigade," seven orders of architecture, seven seas, 'Seven Sisters.' The seventh son of a seventh son is supposed to be born gifted. Harold Percival theory has seven minds and seven faculties. Seven Lucky Artifacts; wishbone, rabbit's foot, white elephant charm, key with heart-lock , four-leaf clover, swastika, horseshoe. Maya Angelou acclaimed as a poet laureate, she never held that position in the US Library of Congress. Chinese Zodiac, a steryotype of personality traits related to one's birth sign under the chines astrological system. Unable to make any correlatiuons based on avalable data. Three, insufficient data available. Four, that is primary program. Take good care of Caspian.

And finally, just for grins, I got another email from Stevie shortly after the above message:

Stevie, sweetest 9 year-old in space I know wrote:

Hi Prince Caspian!

I drew a picture for you, I hope you like it.

your friend,
Stevie

I'll post a link to the picture she drew for me when flickr stops rejecting my upload. I love this little girl!
