Not after the White Women, too?
Anyways, I'm sure NYC would be happy if at least SOME of them were running after someone else...

Bah, I wish I'd be there for the Überstaff to meet all those HoPpers! frown

Are you still going to be on the meadows if this horrid weather keeps up?

If not, is there a firepoint contingency plan so that you still get your pressie - otherwise I'll forget to give it to you rolleyes

I was a KB kid once :farawaylook: but now I'm even further south with fields full of excruciatingly cute lambs.

I came out to see but I think I was a bit late - it was nearly 10 by the time I'd braced myself for the cold.

maybe I'll come hunt you down after juggling... smile

do you want to know what your present is or will it be a suprise?

Yep, we were all back in warm places by 10. It didn't help that red men and rugby players and whoever had turned the Meadows into a swamp, so whenever we tried to get warm by playing running games the fastest thing we could do was a bouncy sliding motion wink

I'll probably be in the Teviot after juggling, predictably... unless Meghan changes the designated pub. Quite unlikely, really!

gosh my sautrday is full of possibilities

so far I might be:

up the Hill at an organiser's walthrough (probably ought to actually do this one)
roaming Ben Lawers with some friends
having a fitting for the may queen's finery
adventuring to Lewis
playing on the meadows

hrm
why don't coins have more sides?

what time are you toying with Kat? I might pop by in passing - but I warn you it's more about holly the hoop than tulip the stick these days smile

Playing on the Meadows sounds fun. What exactly are the Meadows though?

(I'm in here to brush up my Scottish, if that's alright with you, Birg smile)

Sure it's okay with me Ry, though I'm German and can't help you that much with Scottish. I'm happy I can understand most of what people here say to me...

The Meadows are a big park area in the middle of Edinburgh, it's where we usually play with fire or run around practicing for Beltane. Of course, there's "normal" people (football and rugby players and drunks) too, it's not like we have our own juggling park. Dammit. Now that would be cool. With a big sign: "No NOT playing on the lawn." Mmmmmh. More plans for world domination and what to do with it...

Well, guess I'll have to brush up my German then smile Yes, I thought that's where you were from.. I was talking to gita at moonfest, and she was saying her name was Margita from the German name Margit. And I actually mentioned you!

The Meadows sounds like a great name for a park. With a name like that, it's almost as if a fun yet relaxing time is guaranteed. Should you eventually conquer the world, I think you could even put people there to enforce your sign! Mmm.. nice dreams tonight..

A lot of my mum's friends are actually called Margit, too! It's a bit out of fashion in Germany now I think, but who knows, it might come back smile

"Should I eventually" conquer the world??? That sounds like you don't believe in it!! But I'm glad you dream of my world domination, that's another step in the right direction!

I believe in you, of course I do, don't be silly. smile It's just that.. you know just in case you mellow and decide to have a normal day to day job.. like well, biochemistry, toxicology or analytical chemistry.. I don't want to be left hanging like those hundreds of people who ran around the world with Forrest Gump only to be there when he said he didn't feel like running anymore..

In the meantime, the end is nigh! All hail Birgit! ubbangel

Seriously though, say you did. Two hundred followers. What'd be the first thing you'd decree them do, and how would you justify it to them?

Like, hypothetically, assuming if you told them to

a) each plant a tree secretly in a random public place, because trees are the antenna to the universe and that it will somehow send a message into the the subconscious of passers by- 169 of them do it.

b) each bring you 5 kilos of chocolate because you feel like eating chocolate today- 10 of them actually do it, while the rest question their faith in you.

c) each bring you 5 kilos of chocolate because you intend to turn it into a performance art piece criticising consumer culture, 120 actually send you chocolate.

Just for a bit of fun. biggrin

oh. my. god.

you're now officially employed as my world domination officer. I do recognise the danger that you might take over my followers once I have them, but it would still leave me with 600 kg of chocolate!!!!!

my own ideas:

a. make each of them be nice to everyone for a day. justification: it will further our cause and the one who makes the most people happy will have a high-ranking position in my world-dom-committee

b. ask them to bring me 200 different bottles of beer so I can taste and decide which will be made the official Birgitian brewery once I own it

c. throw away their mobile phones. it will make scheming behind my back much harder, and I will only have people following me that won't call me up to tell me they're on the train and how are my world domination plans going on when everyone's listening just because they can't read a book like we used to do when we were young biggrin

Yay! Time to print name cards. World Domination Officer.. ubblol

Results of your first decree:

a. Word of mouth spreads and you now have 237 followers (37 new ones!) who believe in nicety-begets-nicety. It was going to be 238, but one of them decided he didn't really like hierarchies.

b. On average, your 237 followers bring you 3 bottles of beer. Put together, you have 711 bottles, consisting 102 unique labels. I myself bring 2 0.5l mugs of Paulaner Hefe-Weissen with a side of wedges.
16 followers, deciding you were an alco, have left to start a tree hugging group. You now have 221 followers.

c. Oh disaster! Your 221 followers had a heated meeting and 181 of them left because they wouldn't throw their phones away. 16 of them decided to try and sell their phones, encouraged by recent media discussion on mobile phone radiation, and the remaining 25 were hippies who didn't have phones to start with.

Birgit's World Domination Inc. summary, 41 members, with no phones.

Birgit's personal stash, 250l of beer, and 600kg of chocolate.

biggrin

Right... given that I only know men (apart from myself of course) who don't own mobile phones, this leaves me with a huge harem and lots of alcohol and sweets. That's almost better than world domination!!!

I'll consider the Paulaner, though it's Bavarian... it's nice though, maybe I'll have a State Brewery of the Year thing!

dammit, my world domination officer is getting a bit megalomaniac there! that's my role, you're supposed to keep me sane!

well then...

1. the 41 members with phones but not mobile phones will all get a title to keep them happy and to make non-members jealous.

2. my clone army is growing in their tanks of nutrient solution, while the production of Darth Vader helmets for them is proceeding rapidly.

3. half the chocolate is used to lure more people into following me.

Oops you meant to hire ubbangel Ry.. I'm devil Ry.. we get mixed up all the time.

I, devil Ry, am the one who tells you world domination is good, and you should try your best to achieve it.

ubbangel Ry is the one who tells you world domination is good, and when you achieve it, you should feel guilty.

He's a smeghead.

biggrin

A friend just lent me seasons 1-8 of Red Dwarf.. can you tell?

Meanwhile, your army of followers is growing.

The 41 remaining are now the Birgitii Templar, who lead your clone army of 2 clones (tanks of nutrient solution cost you 100litres of beer and 100kg of chocolate each- thus you only can afford 2)

Having spent 300kg of chocolate to lure the general public, you have attracted 120 people. Unfortunately, this translates to only 16 people who are still around. The other 104 are the same people who go to supermarkets and linger around middle-aged, apron-wearing ladies who hand out toothpicked-stabbed orange and white coloured food morsels.

State of Birgit's World Domination Inc:
- 41 Birgitii Templar
(with a greens majority: 25 hippies, and 16 who seem to go with the flow)
- 2 Birgit clones
(one of them we can't keep away from the beer, and the other one is unnervingly subservient)
-16 freshies
(result of 300kg of chocolate bribery to the general public)
-2 tanks of clone growing nutrient solution tanks, currently growing 2 more Birgit clones
-100kg of chocolate
- 50 litres of beer
