But, umm, you see, however, that she has suggested, as her personal monkeyservant, and as a gibbon thus being innately imbued with the ability to eviscerate and mutilate most every item of fauna you can defenestrate in my general direction, that I encroach upon the personal space of any sentience that raises their voice above a whisper and proceed to transform them into an inside-out, limb-faced Mister Potatohead type blob of screaming mess.

Look, between you and me, I'm not much of a morning person myself, so...let's just keep it quiet, and I'll make us a couple of lattes (suitably "flavoured" from this little flask here [wink]), and hopefully Her Highness is sleeping deep enough that she has not been awakened and so I don't have to go to all of that exuberant fuss.

Sound like a reasonable arrangement to you? So lets sit, and wait, conversing quietly, upon another dawn of that blazing glory that is our Queen.

Yours with quiet restaint,
Adrian - The Royal Gibbon

@VR : see? what did I tell ya?

y'all are just lucky, i'm currently enjoying my coffee and the lovely weather, charging up the various lisesuses in preparation for tonight, and lazily thinking i should go take a shower and get dressed pretty soon...

go ahead, you can say morning. the official definition of "morning" is "portion of the day immediately following getting up". since i just got up, it must be morning.

good morning to you !

zelda_pinwheel · 07-04-2009, 08:45 AM

by the way, we've taken a vote over in the french forum, and decided that since after all these meetups were launched over here, they should be called "RendezVous" instead of "MeetUp" from now on. make a note of that, okay ?

vivaldirules · 07-04-2009, 09:15 AM

Happy Paris RendezVous, today! (the 42nd?)

Have a great time today. And take *A LOT* of pictures, not like our german friends on the Frankfurt meetup. Remember, it's OK to hold one beer in each hand, but sometimes put one down on the table (or while waiting for the next round) and take a photo.

Have fun, kids.

And don't forget your cybooks.

YGG- · 07-04-2009, 12:42 PM

It's HOT! 27°C... a cool beer in hand, I'm trying to discover who's there (there's ten of us)

Of course Queen Z. was there first
I recognize FlorenceArt
Godzil
I'll keep you posted

As for machines, we have:

Sony (psst: Zelda has a 700...)
CyBook (all veeery excited tonight)
Kindle
BeBook (very interesting)
an Apple Newton!!!
eBookwise

To be continued...

Godzil · 07-04-2009, 06:24 PM

I think a lot of cybook goes back home happy
