@ziegenbartsr – no, what you said.

Regarding Noah’s father…I had drinks with @ziegenbartsr and told him about an “unsupported” theory I came up with, only to have him find something that might possibly support it:

“Is Tom your boss? Well I want you to go in and say…
“Tom, I am a threat. I don’t respect you. I’m going to take your job because I am better, smarter, tough…[Read more]

@ziegenbartsr – still on for 4:30 @ Groveland Tap?

@hazelverse – I don’t know if what @macbethinabathtub said addressed your issues but he basically hit the nail squarely on the head in terms of why we don’t all have the whole story, and it’s what I meant the other day in bringing up David Mitchell’s mode of storytelling. It’s also how LOST did it, and many, many, MANNNNNNNNNNY video games do…[Read more]

@meghanmayhem – SO. FUCKING. AMAZING.

You just need to have neighbors who mind their own business

^^^ I can absolutely vouch for this being the case.

They sort of took away your individuality/identity…but more importantly protected your clothing from splashes of blood. 😉

That may not be the purpose here though, since there was only two of them.

I assumed they were the same suits we wore at Ascension (the first time through). Any other reason for them?

@sassyyael & @izryn – I’d be willing to help out transcribing in the future too, I did a bit last year when we had periscopes that were readings from the book of Anoch. Just volunteering now that the semester is winding down. 🙂

Also WHAT A GREAT NIGHT. I actually was awake right before this happened but couldn’t stay awake long enough to watch.

@ziegenbartsr – I will be there – will need to head over to Mac to see a student’s performance at 6 so I will set an alarm on my phone…we seem to get caught up in conversation. 🙂

@hazelverse – you were kicked out??

The cats were there for me. It’s like they thought of me. 🙂

THERE WERE KITTIES???

OMG. I WISH I HAD BEEN THERE. I WOULD HAVE SAID HI TO THE KITTIES. A LOT.

Both recaps from @theladyj and @macbethinabathtub were GREAT – thank you!! Don’t apologize for length!

@theladyj:

Putting my elbows on the table I answer, “No, I’d like a cerebral experience, I’d be okay with that. But online I’m nice, on the phone I’m nice, so I’m not surprised at my experience. But I would like something Cerebral. What happens if you push me beyond being nice?”

OMG I THINK I LOVE YOU.

Don’t mind me…I’ll just be here in the forums in 36 degree Saint Paul…talking about Cloud Atlas….I love my peach tree….have fun everyone. 🙂 🙂

OK hang on. It’s possibly VERY relevant.

One of the book’s main characters is a “fabricant,” I think they are biological in nature but definitely manufactured, so possibly artificial? And her story involves her becoming aware of her true nature and the true purpose/life cycle of other fabricants, and she tries to rebel. She ends up becoming a…[Read more]

Oh I won’t.
It’s also funny because I just brought up David Mitchell on the forums last week.
FWIW, the book is MUCH better than the movie, but the movie isn’t a bad adaptation. That book is so complex and layered, it makes me wonder if there’s something in it that might be relevant. It’s a pretty specific book to reference here.

@goldtongue cloud atlas is one of my FAVORITE books!!
