[03:01:28] <Bytram> Fnord666: !!
[03:01:40] <Fnord666> Bytram !!
[03:01:57] <Bytram> How was your day? ISTR you had an early start?
[03:03:04] <Fnord666> A bit, yeah. Typical day though. Not too bad
[03:03:11] <Fnord666> Yourself?
[03:03:30] <Bytram> pretty good all-in-all
[03:04:09] <Fnord666> That's good
[03:04:23] <Bytram> took care of a couple errands, did some reading, mostly tried to relax after the weekend, or should I say "weakened"?
[03:04:40] <Fnord666> lol
[03:05:12] <Bytram> well, I *did* push out 18 stories in a row.
[03:05:43] <Bytram> don't know if you noticed, but mrpg made an appearance hear a couple hours or so ago.
[03:07:41] <Fnord666> I did see that.
[03:08:30] <Bytram> he's in covid-19 lockdown atm
[03:09:34] <Fnord666> Ah, I didn't see that bit
[03:09:44] * Bytram wishes there were a way we could get him on-line so he could help out with the story queue! I'm sure he's getting bored, and I'm sure we could use the help!
[03:10:08] <Fnord666> Does he not have any sort of internet available where he is?
[03:10:13] <Bytram> that was from a separate communication I had with him
[03:13:17] <Fnord666> ah, I see.
[03:15:10] <Bytram> oh, need to upfate the Beg-o-Meter
[03:17:13] <Bytram> done

[03:17:49] <Bytram> Fnord666: btw, might want to be thinking of a new poll topic -- we're overdue for a new one.
[03:17:53] <Fnord666> A shame that's a manual process
[03:18:42] <Bytram> I'll like to come up with something humorous / light-hearted to counter the COVID-19 gloom and doom
[03:19:24] <Bytram> if it were a template instead of a block, it could be almost entirely automated.
[03:20:24] <chromas> You can queue up several polls though
[03:20:56] <Bytram> as it is, I wrote a collection of scripts that pull recent subscriptions, do the math and output the strings that I ultimately just paste into the appropriate places in site news block
[03:21:57] <Bytram> we have enough trouble coming up with one per month... wait, did I just hear a volunteer?
[03:22:41] <chromas> Poll: 0: A, B, C, D, E, F
[03:22:52] <chromas> Poll: 1: A, B, C, D, E, F
[03:23:28] <Bytram> Poll: 2: D, E, A, D, B, E, E, F
[03:24:07] <chromas> Repeat options; booo
[03:24:12] <chromas> (+bs)
[03:24:33] <Bytram> isn't that some kind of setting for IRC channels?
[03:24:53] <chromas> It is; it enables XML
[03:25:11] <Fnord666> How appropriate
[03:26:17] * chromas sets mode +bs
[03:26:17] <chromas> <!DOCTYPE XMLIRC><IRC connection class="blah blah
[03:26:54] <chromas> (not a real mode, o' course)
[03:27:26] <Bytram> you're hereby demoded
[03:27:48] * Fnord666 groans
[03:28:07] <chromas> depeché
[03:28:19] <Bytram> and I'm going to his the hay; the construction workers nearby like to get started by 0630
[03:28:24] <Fnord666> pie a la
[03:28:35] <Fnord666> Good night Bytram
[03:28:41] <Bytram> la la la la!
[03:29:27] <Fnord666> fa la la la la, la la la la.
[03:29:48] <Bytram> speaking of LA... I put up a rare (for me) journal entry mentioning Amy Allen's new single is out
[03:30:39] <Bytram> and now it's time for me to put the lights out.
[03:30:44] <Bytram> laters taters!
[03:30:49] <Fnord666> the party's over.
[03:31:05] <Bytram> chromas: thanks for the story subs!
[03:31:14] <Fnord666> good night Bytram. Pleasant dreams. Try not to think of scary clowns hiding in your closet.

[03:33:29] <Bytram> is tricky to hide from one's self, no?
[03:33:31] <Fnord666> nah, the personalities don't know about each other
[03:34:19] <Bytram> and sounds like someone is starting a load of laundry... yay. o_O
[03:34:56] <Bytram> if that's the worst of my problems today, I have nothing to complain about.
