[11:38] <JonathanD> Morning.
[11:55] <rmg51> Morning
[11:55] <pleia2> something
[12:16] <jedijf> pleia2: lol - what day time country etc
[12:16] <pleia2> all airports look the same :)
[13:08] <waltman> Where in the world is pleia2 sandiego?
[13:09] <pleia2> hong kong for another couple hours
[13:11] <waltman> Did you get to downtown Hong Kong, or were you stuck out by the airport?
[13:11] <waltman> "central", I think they call it.
[13:12] <waltman> Ride a ferry? Go up to the top of Mt. Victoria?
[13:18] <waltman> I really liked Hong Kong when I visited about 15 years ago. My only real disappointment was that there didn't seem to be junks anymore.
[13:56] <pleia2> waltman: I was in central a few times, did a boat tour of the harbor too
[13:57] <pleia2> no mt victoria, mostly eating and shopping :) and saw the big buddha today
[13:57] <waltman> yay
[14:00] <pleia2> http://princessleia.com/images/journalpics/112013/WoS_boat_hong_kong.jpg
[14:00] <pleia2> went on that boat :)
[14:00] <pleia2> unfortunately it was raining
[14:00] <pleia2> and I had some egg custards :d
[14:09] <KyleYankan> Pequrliar that they have the mainsail down. Junk rigs aren't always the most balanced, usually you'd reef the entire sailplan instead of changing it.
[14:10] <KyleYankan> peculiar* wowsa
[14:11] <KyleYankan> I mean, having multiple reef points is on the the major advantages of that sailplan
[14:14] <pleia2> I think they put up more sails once we were actually on it
[14:15] <KyleYankan> eh, it's still strange, ever if they were using it a s mooring sail, they'd only use the aft. They must have some strange reason. I wonder why.
[14:19] <KyleYankan> Sailing buddies only explanation: "To look fancy" :-P
[14:21] <KyleYankan> Very pretty boat though. I always wanted to have a junk-rig.
[14:28] <waltman> pleia2: that's awesome
[14:29] <waltman> Still morning here, and I'm about to head to Minella's for breakfast!
[14:29] <waltman> Have a great trip back!
[14:30] <pleia2> thanks :) enjoy
[14:56] <jedijf> KyleYankan: way to overboat a simple pic LOL
[14:57] <KyleYankan> jedijf: Always. People should know better than to show me a boat pic. Especially a sailboat with a unique rig.
[15:01] <jedijf> so future KyleYankan kids will have to be certified to sail bathtub toys....
[15:02] <jedijf> in this house, we're big on shark attacks
[15:03] <KyleYankan> Shark Attacks are no laughing matter. We don't joke about that.
[15:03] <jedijf> grand daughter quote, "It's a friendly shark"
[15:04] <KyleYankan> Sharks are only grumpy because no-one gives them hugs?
[15:04] <jedijf> sharks and ursula get a bad rap
[15:05] <jedijf> got to have mermaids in there too
[15:05] <KyleYankan> Heh. You know what they say....
[15:05]  * KyleYankan sings "Everything's better down where it's wetter, take it from meeeee"
[15:06]  * jedijf goes back to reading ham stuff before bacon at nabrasas
[15:06] <KyleYankan> 2 Nieces. I get to watch all the Disney/Pixar movies. and yes, I've had ribbons in my beard.
[15:48]  * waltman is baconful
[15:48] <waltman> KyleYankan: pink ribbons?
[15:48] <KyleYankan> I think they were green and blue. I tried not to remember details.
[15:48] <KyleYankan> They were... difficult to remove.
[15:49] <waltman> says the guy who just gave us detailed info on the sailing characteristics of junk rigging...
[15:50] <KyleYankan> Hey, we all knows that beard is not the as rope. If I had a line or sheet as messy as my beard, it would of been replaced already.
[16:29] <JonathanD> I threw my quad port graphics card up on craigslist, but if anyone needs one lemme know.
[16:48] <cyberanger> JonathanD: what card is it?
[16:48] <JonathanD> matrox M9148
[16:53] <cyberanger> ah, nice one, shame I'm not on the market for a card today, maybe once the move is fully behind me
[17:01] <cyberanger> JonathanD: wish I could afford that
[17:01] <JonathanD> Would you make an epic video wall?
[17:01] <JonathanD> :P
[17:07] <cyberanger> idk if it'd be a wall, but it'd be epic
[17:07] <cyberanger> maybe for my flight sim stuff
[17:08] <cyberanger> (otherwise it'd just be work, and where's the fun in that)
[17:09] <KyleYankan> payday?
[17:10] <cyberanger> KyleYankan: are you asking JonathanD ?
[17:10] <cyberanger> or me?
[17:11] <KyleYankan> I'm responding to your "Where's the fun in work" comment above ^ :-)
[17:12] <cyberanger> ah, yeah, more like where's the fun in buying that card JUST for work, but yeah, paychecks are good
[17:13] <KyleYankan> ssh with size 72 point font in your terminal?
[17:13] <KyleYankan> IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES
[17:13] <cyberanger> well, there are plenty of possibilites for a NOC
[17:14] <JonathanD> ooh flight sim.
[17:17] <cyberanger> yeah, while an actual plane beats a sim any good day, sim is cheaper and every day is good
[17:20] <KyleYankan> I always wanted to goto the Philadelphia Glider Club
[17:30] <cyberanger> I've seen gliders, but kept to motors
[17:30] <cyberanger> except for skydiving, then I'd glide to the DZ
[17:33]  * cyberanger is a bit weird, or at least an adrenaline junkie
