schme - Those comments were directed at my dear friend west

Mikki - I agree 27 is the best age to remain, I think I'll stay right there with you as well!

Don't worry, Pirate Lass, I won't beat you. Wherever you got that idea from, I have no idea.


I do not know what you mean by new spawn.

I know I was the result of some spawning, but that happened quite some time ago, nine months before I came on the scene, if I remember correctly.

Actually to 'spawn' is to be born...usually applied to insects and other lower life forms...the word you're looking for is 'conception', possibly.

[Schme]

Spawn does not mean to be born. It means to create, in a way.

"The idea was initially spawned in Greece."

"The salmon are off to spawn."

[mikki]

Glad to see that I am not the only one still up. It is 435 in the morning and well.. I am not tired, but will be when my kids get up.. *shrugs*

[Pirate Lass]

Hmm... maybe I'm not quite an insomniac, but I AM up throughout the night and early morning hours. But hey - I'm getting paid for it.

At least tonight I get to go home before the evil orb of death rises over the mountains.

You just have a bad habit of ressurecting old posts at night?

[Fleegle]

I'm not sure which came first, but I suspect spawn originally refered to the biological process of creation (ie. birth). At any rate, the term creation and birth are very closely connected and often used interchangeably, either in a metaphorical or literal sense. That is, it is perfectly acceptable to say that you create a child as to say you give birth to a child. People often refer to things that aren't biological offspring as births, too. Someone may say that a book they wrote is one's child, or we might say that Freud was the father of psycho-analysis.
In many of humanity's oldest myths, the act of the creation of the universe has often been described in terms of giving birth, or as the hatching of a cosmic egg.
I don't know if you could go as far as to say that birth and creation are synonymous, but they are so closely linked that I don't think it really matters whether you take "spawn" to mean birth or creation... the same idea comes across.

Hey! Did I miss another meeting?

[Pirate Lass]

You just have a bad habit of ressurecting old posts at night?

Have to keep myself entertained somehow.

[colonel]

Oh Lass, how I have missed our late night chats.



*Hides in the corner*

[Pirate Lass]

I was missed?
*sniff*
Awwwwww how nice

Hehehe

Now, just wait until I can get on my messengers again muwahaha. My provider says November 7th.

It's 2:46 and, I just had my "lunch" I'm wide awake and have nothing to do. Hmm, maybe I'll go and tease the elevator guards.

[Racetyme]

I'm not going to lie, I wish I had some elevator guards to tease.

[colonel]

But you have neighbors and knock knock ginger! Now that is entertainment. (Until you get caught of course)
And who can forget how much fun you can have with a paperbag and some... oh umm never mind.

[Racetyme]

That's true. I can't wait to wake up my neighbours and their four undisciplined children.
