biodredd: So NJ, did you experience the shakes this morning?
auntyalias: ya, got a log of when it happened
chelyha55: was there a quake?
auntyalias: gave links to the USGS here and you can see it a big red X
auntyalias: ya, off the coast, 3.7 or so, I said it was a 3-4 and not
that close by and I was spot on
biodredd: No damage? Right?
auntyalias: just jiggled my chair
chelyha55: better than tornadoes
biodredd: I saw it listed on CNN this morning. Japan got one
yesterday. Pretty big one too, but so far no real damge.
auntyalias: oh now it is blue, if it were in the last hour it would be
red
auntyalias: http://www.kron.com/Global/link.asp?L=58437&nav=5D7iAcwz
auntyalias: the one down in San Jose, it's where there's a lot of
folks
auntyalias: they probably felt that more than I did this one this
afternoon
biodredd: Looks like you've seen a few shakes this week, but this one
was the largest one recently.
bonsaikathy: mainland Japan??
biodredd: Just off the coast. But did a lot of shakin inland.
auntyalias: it was felt in Tokyo, but it was north 250 miles
biodredd: Hold on, I'll get the link...
auntyalias: I saw it already
bonsaikathy: I'll have to ask my son about it, he's in Okinawa
biodredd: MSNBC - http://www.msnbc.com/news/918195.asp?0cv=CB10
biodredd: CNN - Strong quake hits Japan -
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/asiapcf/east/05/26/japan.quake/index.html
bonsaikathy: Ok I'm going to cure this little baby
bonsaikathy: brb
biodredd: CNN - Quick jolt for "San Francisco" -

Jen: outline is done... gonna bake then work on the colors
biodredd: That is all the news I am reporting today.
auntyalias: LOL, and now for the Sports Report
auntyalias: who does not know this is the Natasha cut?
auntyalias: Roni, Lisa?
auntyalias: Pat?
nor4man93553: Me
biodredd: YEs, we can talk about all the Russina guys hitting on me
online later, after the commercial break.
patab12000: yea, I do natasha crosses
auntyalias: CherylD, you don't know the Natasha cut?
auntyalias: to get four mirror images off of a block of chop?
auntyalias: I could have bet money you saw one of those Demos
auntyalias: but I might be wrong
nor4man93553: No I can never get all sides right
meows3xx: nope,
nor4man93553: no I missed it
auntyalias: ok, trick is to open them like a book and when you match
the edges, think of a zipper on a jacket
Jen: Ok... I'll brb, then start filling in a figure
Jen: Still not sure what side show character to do first
auntyalias: fix the ends first and then connect the seam going up like
closing a zipper
auntyalias: ok, dig the opening like a book
heartlandimages joined the room
bonsaikathy: welcome back
heartlandimages: howdy all
auntyalias: Now we cut those in half and open them like a book and
match the seam like we close a jacket zipper from one end going up to
the top
auntyalias: now I didn't even have to match that seam there
auntyalias: it opened up and stayed put
nor4man93553: nod
meows3xx: looks great, mirror image
lommomy: sorry steped out....no I do not know how to do the n...
auntyalias: now we'll match the side seams, and we close it like a
jacket zipper, from the bottom up
bonsaikathy: Hey Rob wanna see the finished scene I did for Sharon
biodredd left the room
heartlandimages: sure, on your webcam?
bonsaikathy: yup
heartlandimages: very nice Kathy

bonsaikathy: Thanks Rob
bonsaikathy: By the way, how is Melissa doing
heartlandimages: she's doing fine--easy pregnancy so far *knock on
wood*
bonsaikathy: that's great, I'm glad to hear it
chelyha55: Rob I got the stamps they are great
chelyha55: You should get your canes soon
heartlandimages: thank you
chelyha55: I think I mailed them friday
chelyha55: It's hard to keep track
heartlandimages: k, should get them early this week then, depending on
mail service between CA and KS
chelyha55: NJ have you seen the spikes I make with chop?
meows3xx: that last one looked like a Budha
auntyalias: spikes? Oh Yes now I remember
auntyalias: yes I did see those
auntyalias: what I wanted to show you here, gang, is if you want
smaller beads
auntyalias: slice smaller loaves for the natasha cut
heartlandimages: a question for those who've used this chat more than
I--if the "The page cannot be displayed" error message appears, and
takes up most of the screen, how does one reset it without logging
in/out?
faye_shelton: lots of us have been having that problem today
auntyalias: I just leave out of chat and come back in
auntyalias: that usually does it
lommomy: sorry, can I see the pinch pot you were working on--had to
make dinner when you were doing it.
heartlandimages: gotta relog to clear it then?
faye_shelton: Kathy's suggestion
auntyalias: not usually
faye_shelton: I relogged and it came right back
auntyalias: just going out of chat and coming back clears it up for me
Jen: Ok, I need a vote. Should I do the bearded lady, tattood man,
block head (guy who hammers nails in his nose) or does anyone have
another idea?
heartlandimages left the room
jude: Is a lifeguard a choice?
jude:
heartlandimages joined the room
auntyalias: a bearded tattoo'd lady who hammers nails in her beard
auntyalias: who is a One Woman Band
Jen: LOL

auntyalias: drum, harmonica, cylbles between her knees
meows3xx: Speedo
auntyalias: LOL
jude: LOL
auntyalias: just a wild woman
auntyalias: with long dreds
auntyalias: LOL
auntyalias: oh, before I get totally side tracked
Jen: But if I do all the ideas in one character I can't do a full
sideshow scene...
auntyalias: take these long skinny natasha logs and make tube beads
jude: Sideshow? You doing a circus?
meows3xx: just lost all my cams
Jen: Just the sideshow
jude: Ah....Okie.
Jen: Camera is back up... switched sides

Jen: Ahhh, bearded tattood sword swallower
lommomy: sword swaller sounds good to me lol

chelyha55 left the room
jude: Way, way, way back when, they used to have some really weird
things in the sideshows.
Jen: yeah, the web sites I've found have some weird stuff
lommomy: monkey boy??
Jen: Dogface boy and lobster boy also
Jen: Ooh, stained glass outline is cool
jude: Yes, I've heard of the lobster boy people. It's actually a
medical condition.
Jen: Yeah I was trying to avoid anything that was a medical
condition... except for the bearded lady
Jen: I'm going to squish some clay into my stained glass before I
start on the bearded lady
nor4man93553 left the room
patab12000: that is neat NJ

Jen: thanks
auntyalias: Hey, Jude, I resemble that remark
auntyalias: LOL

empty here
