How about the a2k gathering in Chicago in May?!
That's a direct invite! Are you coming?!
WHom are you inviting, dj? (and good morning, by the way)
Mornin', Mame! What time is it there?
I was inviting any and all - the more the merrier!
Are you coming?
It's 8:50 a.m.... and no, I don't think it's a go, for me. You all have fun, though!
Where will you be arranging this - a restaurant?
I'm not 100% sure. I think there's talk of a community rooma t someone's condo. I have to check the thread!
What are you doing besides playing on the computer?
Is there anything more time consuming and addictive?
Are you interested in astronomy?
Welcome to a2k, The pen is! Hope you like it here!
Not much other than drugs, shopping, gamgling...!
What brings you here?
I'm just trying to make the time more easy passing until the Big Match gets underway in a couple of hours.
Are you being accompanied to Chicago?
I'm not, but maybe someone else will be.
Do you intend to go?
No, but thank the lady with the pneumatic body for the welcome!
Do you live in the past, present or future?
I gather Jupiter is X light minutes from here so when I'm reading posts from there I'm obviously living in the past.
What's it like?
What's it like? It's a bit of alright, it is.
From whence do you hail?
From the distant past same as you.
Aren't you going to say hello Sister?
Okay, hello Sister!
Do you believe that cold fusion is possible?
Yes.I once made love to a young lady on a park bench in a freezing gale and I can assure you that cold fusion is definitely possible as long as you are under twenty and a bit inexperienced.
Style helps as well don't you think?
Oh, style definitely matters! It makes everything so much more acceptable.
However, a good accent never fails to impress, does it?
A good accent never fails to impress me as well.I love listening to football managers with their range of dialects and also to Joanna Lumley.
I like American accents as long as they are talking about something important but not with banal stuff like "Have you put the kettle on darling".That sounds really naff.
Do you think that's why Americans are always talking about something important?
Sorry, I have no choice but to throw that question right back at you, slightly changed -- do YOU think Americans are always talking about something important, and if so, which ones, and about what?
No.I was simply being discreet.
Most of the American accents I hear are on the television but I had a recent experience of the banal stuff for a few hours over the festive season,a lady of no small dignity from Vancouver would you believe,and I found a difference in my acceptabilty gauge from those others which are always talking about something important.
Is that fairly clear?
Yes, I believe so, however, we Cdns do not refer to ourselves as"Americans" the way Europeans do...We are only Canadians. I am assuming you are referring to all North Americans, however.
Have you heard the Newfoundland accent?
