[11:32] o/ [18:15] IdleOne: happy canada day! [18:15] pleia2: Thank you :) [18:15] Happy Friday to you :) [18:16] thanks :) [19:18] I googled Canada Day but... Canada did not gain full independence from the UK until 1982? [19:18] slackers. [19:18] this is the anniversary of when they first asked politely to be independent [19:19] lol [19:19] I guess Canadians don't make good rebels. [19:19] in 1982 they added the cherry on top to the please and won over the british royalty [19:19] "Excuse me sir, but could we please be independant? No... Ok, thanks. Can I get you something to drink? Some tea perhaps?" [19:20] pleia2: have you seen my awesome copy of the philly inq? [19:20] Dossy: nope [19:20] err JonathanD [19:20] heh :) [19:20] wow, that's some serious tab fail [19:20] hi Dossy! [19:20] pleia2: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47445571@N07/5890939184/in/photostream [19:20] Title: Axis Crimes! | Flickr - Photo Sharing! (at www.flickr.com) [19:21] pleia2: the D is at the end of my nick. [19:21] Stop trying to type it backwards. [19:21] pleia2, Hm? [19:21] hi Dossy! [19:21] Hi, JonathanD :) [19:21] Dossy: I fail at IRC :) [19:21] Dossy: we had a great camping trip. [19:21] JonathanD: haha, crazy [19:21] LOL, pleia2 :) [19:21] JonathanD, sorry we couldn't make it ... [19:21] Sept 22nd, 1942 [19:21] Dossy: next time :) [19:21] ricketts glen. Maybe. [19:22] that's some crasy phila inq [19:22] crazy [19:22] man, I need a weekend [19:22] pleia2: I was a little shocked how vivid the colors were. [19:22] 69 years later. [19:22] yeah [19:23] it looks like it was just printed. [19:23] why do the pics in todays paper look so much worse than my 7 decade old one? [19:24] When you account for inflation how much did your 7 decade old one cost? [19:25] I don't know. [19:25] we still have papers? [19:25] there no price printed on it, my understanding is that this piece was an insert in the actual paper. [19:25] pleia2: yes, with grainy 3 color photos in them. [19:25] no wonder no one reads them! [19:25] I found a bayonet, a medal, and some WWII meal vouchers, too [19:26] where? [19:26] Grandmas place. [19:26] ah [19:26] She was a tough old lady ;) [19:26] WWII meal vouchers. hmm [19:26] I thought maybe the bears gave them to you while you were camping [19:26] When she says "get off my lawn" she does so with a bayonet ;) [19:26] haha [19:26] pleia2: we're cleaning it out. It's about to sell [19:26] The meal probably comes with the newfangled grey goo called "margarine" [19:26] * pleia2 nods [19:27] ChinnoDog: yes, books of them. [19:27] each book has a name on it. [19:30] JonathanD: I saw "Axis Crimes" and thought it was a gallery of crimes you caught on Axis cameras [19:31] That could have some collectable value, pleia2 [19:32] andrew: I'll make the other pages available, probably tuesday. [19:32] I want to scan them, but safely. [19:32] The print is in excellent condition but the paper itself is somewhat fragile. [19:38] JonathanD: I wonder if those meal coupons are worth anything to anyone [19:38] ChinnoDog: nto sure who would want them. [20:24] I think I am in the dark on today's xkcd [20:24] Would someone care to enlighten me? [20:24] I... can't... [20:24] ChinnoDog: I'll stand over here with you, until someone who can comes along. [20:25] yeah, I have no idea [20:26] I think it's a pun on the de-evolution of the language... or something... [20:26] sorry xkcd, you lost me this time. [20:29] You're too old for it [20:30] JonathanD: did you see the recent blag post on xkcd? [20:30] no [20:30] yes [20:33] sad [20:33] indeed.
