[16:25] <LamontCranston> haven't you wondered why I was online so early today?
[16:26] <Tigger_> you got sacked?
[16:27] <LamontCranston> hah no
[16:28] <Tigger_> everyone else went down to the pub to drink beer, and you were the only one left, so you thought you'd go home?
[16:28] <LamontCranston> hah no
[16:28] <Tigger_> then tell us
[16:29] <LamontCranston> on the reptiles orders the house has been undergoing remodelling and refurbishment and all that, today was new carpet
[16:29] <Tigger_> so she owns the house?
[16:29] <LamontCranston> nope
[16:30] <Tigger_> who does?
[16:30] <LamontCranston> me
[16:30] <LamontCranston> renovation, thats the word I was thinking of :\
[16:30] <Tigger_> well who is paying for this new carpet?
[16:30] <LamontCranston> me
[16:30] <LamontCranston> oh wait no, both
[16:31] <Tigger_> carpet is quite expensive I hope you realise
[16:31] <LamontCranston> yes
[16:32] * gzerj000 has quit IRC (Exit: Reality itself is too twisted. Hunter S. Thompson)
[16:32] <Tigger_> she ought to pay for it if she wants it
[16:34] <LamontCranston> actually we both own the place. sorry about that, very tired after moving every back into place
[16:35] <Tigger_> so you are paying off a mortgage together?
[16:35] <LamontCranston> yep
[16:36] <Tigger_> you must be pleased with Howard for making all this possible for you
[16:36] <LamontCranston> hah
[16:38] <LamontCranston> but hey, I finally got proper bookshelves in the library, rather than a whole lot of bookcases
[16:39] <Tigger_> how many books do you own?
[16:39] <Tigger_> One of the unforgettable parts of Solaris is Bach's chorale prelude for organ, "Ich ruf' zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ" ("I call to you, Lord Jesus Christ"), BWV 639, which is heard four times throughout the movie. In general, Tarkovsky seems to have been quite fond of Bach, as his later film, The Sacrifice features the similarly haunting aria "Erbarme dich, Mein Gott" ("Your Compassion, My Lord") from St. Matthew Passion.
[16:39] <LamontCranston> oh I'm not counting them all
[16:39] <Tigger_> a guess
[16:40] <LamontCranston> couldn't
[16:40] <Tigger_> 1000?
[16:40] <LamontCranston> maybe? maybe more?

[17:02] <Tigger_> http://www.cnet.com.au/projectors/0,39035440,40059610,00.htm
[17:05] <Tigger_> lamont, if you are redecorating your home, new carpet, etc.  you must get one of these
[17:08] <LamontCranston> haven't projectors for the home always been kinda crummy?
[17:08] <Tigger_> only those old cheap ones
[17:09] <LamontCranston> or the old expensive ones
[17:09] <Tigger_> this is 1920x1080, every bit as good as a cinema projector
[17:09] * rofo has quit IRC (Ping timeout for rofo)
[17:10] <Tigger_> I strongly suggest you buy this
[17:10] <LamontCranston> well I shall bring it up
[17:10] <Tigger_> much better than carpet
[17:10] <Tigger_> and the carpet will probably be almost as expensive
[17:11] <LamontCranston> or library, or new furniture, or bathroom, etc
[17:11] <Tigger_> what is the bill for all that?
[17:11] <LamontCranston> not telling
[17:12] <Tigger_> I bet it will be close to $20,000
[17:12] <Tigger_> when instead you could have a cool home cinema
[17:13] <LamontCranston> oh and landscaping out the front, forgot about that
[17:14] <Tigger_> wow you sure are burning the cash
[17:14] <LamontCranston> whats wrong with a nice home?
[17:15] <Tigger_> a nice home without a cinema?
[17:15] <Tigger_> get your priorities straight
[17:15] <LamontCranston> nice home = burning the cash. home cinema = golden investment
[17:15] <Tigger_> yes, precisely
[17:15] <LamontCranston> I'm not the only one living here
[17:16] <LamontCranston> come to think of it, the room yeowie is in in those pictures were rather sparse
[17:17] <Tigger_> print that link out and run out and buy that projector, cancel the landscaping, etc. if you can't afford to have both
[17:17] <LamontCranston> thats already been done
[17:18] <Tigger_> I can't believe you didn't look into this
[17:18] <Tigger_> well get the projector regardless
[17:18] <LamontCranston> didn't look into a home cinema?
[17:18] <Tigger_> why not?
[17:19] <LamontCranston> I guess that wasn't on the 'to-do' list
[17:20] <Tigger_> obviously she is the dominant one in your house
[17:20] <LamontCranston> We also tested the VW100 with a HD television tuner to test out its high resolution capabilities. The 1080i pictures from the Nine and Ten Network feeds were a pleasure to watch, with the images displaying depth and realism. <== if only they were to broadcast something that was a pleasure to watch
[17:20] <LamontCranston> hey, the library was my idea!
[17:20] <Tigger_> you have battlestar galactica to watch
[17:21] <Tigger_> but this is what you connect to a hd-dvd or bluray player, you don't worry about broadcast tv much
[17:22] <LamontCranston> unless there is a hd-dvd or bluray player in the computer
[17:22] <Tigger_> a computer screen is small
[17:22] <LamontCranston> I suppose when I get around to updating the tuner card I could connect the computer
[17:23] <LamontCranston> but I guess my priorities are different to yours :/
[17:24] <Tigger_> obviously film isn't a very high priority for you
[17:28] <LamontCranston> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomoe_Gozen
[17:30] <Tigger_> so are you getting that projector?
[17:31] <LamontCranston> I will discuss it
[17:31] <LamontCranston> after you watch Brick
[17:32] <Tigger_> I am now within 7 pages of finishing writing my notes on version 1 of the script
[17:35] <Tigger_> excited?
[17:38] <LamontCranston> when its released
[17:39] <Tigger_> in it I ask the question what if Freddy and Jason are manifestations of God

Here is a photo of the claimed reptile in question:
