<H2><font color="plum">Cloudy's Cafe</font></H2>

Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself

Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good
darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie.

The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines:

<H3>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone</H3>

* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner

* any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences)
-a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short
conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately!

* Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!)

* do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it.

Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course!

<font color="pink">The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.</font>

Cloudy,
your hostess [img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

<font color=lightblue>Lady Blue,
Your exclusive musician and cappucino waitress [img]graemlins/music05.gif[/img] </font>

<font color=pink>Hewwo everyone. I'm in nice high spirits today cause my band on 1st place at our competition last night! Our 1st 1st place, lol. 1st competition of the season too!

Im going to head over to the chat to see if Calthy and or Kaltia are over there. BTW, you sillys need to post in captive :D </font>

I don't care what you say about me and Colin, jen, I'm in love [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

Are you ok Lb? *grin* sweet? me? (A) lol, dont forget to post on captive [img]tongue.gif[/img]

How's everyone? We went to the "Calgary Area Pet Show" today...I had a tarantula walk all over my hand. It was so funny, some woman started screaming she was so scared of it. :D

<font color=pink>Get 1st post 3 times in a row and you get a free cappucino :D </font>

<font color=pink>lol TM, tranatulas are so cool, i used to have a wild one that i caught as a pet :D

Calthy silly goose, i did post in Captive, im waiting for you/ (for once lol). :D </font>

Tarantula? *owner of 2 snakes, three lizards and two cats and is scared of spiders :D
Can't think what to post on Captive [img]smile.gif[/img]
*Kisses Colin*

I hate spiders, but then again im not afraid of much other than that.

<font color=pink>Lol, actually i didn't read the previous Cloudy's at all, i just made a few assuptions on what the o, say last 3 pages were about :D </font>

And you were probably right :D

I really doubt you want to know the horrors I was exposed to in one of those CC's. Just awful, awful, awful.

Lol watching someone with Arachnophobia when you've got a spider in your hand is funny. Wrong to enjoy it so much, but funny. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I don't like to mess with spiders. I either A: smash it to a pulp. Or B: Let me brother take it outside. (he complains if you kill them)

<font color=pink>LOL TM, i've seen it before on more than one account, i know your pain *rolls around on the floor dying in laughter* I think some D2 might help me. Care to join me Kaltia :D </font>

When I was 13, I ate a spider for $20...well it wasn't really a spider, it was a (dead) daddy-long-legs. We think my cat was the one responsible. ;)

CBA, it's probably Bedtime for me anyway [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Let's just say it involved Anomen and "You must gather your party before venturing forth"

True_Moose but isn't a Daddy Long legs a spider? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Nothing strange, unusual, or just plain out of the ordinary ever happens in the cafes. Right? I mean we don't have anyone around here that exists for the sole purpose of filling them up. Isn't that right Krya? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

KYRA. Sheesh, what's with the mispelling? Kalitia (which means IT bites in estonian :D )

Notice I didn't respond to your baseless accusation :D

How could I get that wrong? And you completely dodged my accusation... ;)

daddy long·legs Pronunciation Key (lônglgz, lng-)
n. pl. daddy longlegs
1) Any of various arachnids of the order Phalangida, with a small rounded body and long slender legs. Also called harvestman.
2) See crane fly.
Hmm, I don't know. Are arachnids necessarily spiders? I was pretty sure they were just bugs. Hmm...

Sorry for double-posting, but I win this one :D

n 1: long-legged slender flies that resemble large mosquitoes but do not bite [syn: crane fly] 2: spider-like arachnid with a small rounded body and very long thin legs [syn: harvestman, Phalangium opilio]

If it's spider-like it can't <u>be</u> a spider :D

You ATE one? @_@

Arachnids can also be Scorpions Ticks and possibly crabs [img]tongue.gif[/img] that's about it though... Whle on the subject of crabs, why is it that Horshoe crab blood is blue? Anybody step on one by accident before? It's freaking blue!

Do you know what $20 bucks can buy you! BG1 + ToTSC (though as I recall that money was mostly spent on female companions)

No way you can't do that! ;) So Kyra [img]tongue.gif[/img] what are you doing when you're not filling the cafe or having strange conversations on MSN? ;) And posting them at IW! LMAO! :D

I'm right now having a dillema... Should i get the GameCube PSO, or wait for the X box PSO... Or just Play the PC PSO and forget abouth both? I really want Split Screen Action Though! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

No way you can't do that! ;) So Kyra [img]tongue.gif[/img] what are you doing when you're not filling the cafe or having strange conversations on MSN? ;) And posting them at IW! LMAO! :D </font>[/QUOTE]Hey, I've got a couple of them saved LOL.

Back now, get yourself on msn Kyra dear *grin* lol, Moose, its NOT unoffical, now its OFFICALLY the FIRST, no, I loose count of Kat's torture victims [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I know you can get BG and TOTSC for just $19.99 now [img]tongue.gif[/img] Plus tax of course. True_Moose you only spent $20 on your female companion? Shame on you! Oh and those conversations were *hilarous* weren't they?

Ian just get GC PSO? Why wait for X-box? I doubt Mirosoft is special enough to get new character classes anyway. What has Microsoft done for Sega? Not much... [img]tongue.gif[/img] If anyone gets em Nintendo should've. Must get GC for Christmas.... [img]graemlins/1drool.gif[/img]

BAH! Why was IWs down? Its been down for about an hr or so I'd guess. hmm, anyway, I'd better go to bed ;) hehe, cya all tommorw, g'night.
