i dunno just messin around now. I thought about doing a Rainbow Dash cosplay after the event... [lol]

That would be cool. I might be changing my avatar soon.

I only ever did a monster avie once.
I should try again.

I never really do any good avies xD

I'm liking your pirate, DD!

a rainbow dash avi would be awesome, llonka!

DD reminds me of the pirates from kids next door that steal candy!

You have pirates next door?

What?

Kids Next Door is a cartoon.

lol...

The last cartoon I saw was that weird spongy guy with pants.
My grandson liked it a lot.

spongebob?! I never watched it really. my parents wouldn't let us watch it...probably because it looked a little too stupid. my cousin's kids watch that though.

I don't know what it is about it that kids like so much.

He's the one that was also crazy about Elmo.

some of it is funny and witty and it's energetic. a couple good episodes out there, but most of it is mind rotting junk.

I never cared for seasame street...I think. I have zero memory of ever watching it and remember not knowing the characters names really, but it seems my older brother would just watch it all day. of course, you could put him down and he'd never move for hours and maybe he looked happy, but was he really enjoying the show or did he just not move away from it?

Kids are just mesmerized by the TV.
It seems that most ANY show catches their attention.

i didn't do that as a kid though. I got up and found something to knock over or climb or draw on.

Well, TV was just coming out when I was little.

I think we got our first TV set when I was about 5 or 6.
We would sit and stare at the test pattern for hours.

They didn't broadcast all day, and there were only a couple of channels.

yeah...I don't know about that. I wouldn't watch test patterns.
My dad tells me about waiting to watch the star trek and doctor who episodes.

That was in the 60's...but we never watched Dr. Who.

I've just started watching them, and I really like it!

my dad was a sci-fi nerd from the start. he even read encycolpedias for fun. what a nerd!!

I haven't really started watching them yet. I've just seen stuff on tv and listened to wingsy go on and on about it.

Well, I started in the middle of season from 2006.
It has David Tenent as Dr. Who. Most people agree that he was the best.

He's pretty good!

I've only seen him as doctor I think! I love him.

Well, I need to get to bed.

See you tomorrow!

aw, good night jean!

Sorry to leave you in the lurch...
Hopefully you can find somebody else to chat with

(Or finish reading that book!)

oh hell no, I ain't finish reading that! I might read a few more pages tomorrow, but that's it.

Good morning! Now to start on that essay...
