Skype

[Mole]

I have never spoken to anyone on Skype.

So if you would like to speak with me, click on the white tick on the green background, under my avatar.

You may not want to put your fingers anywhere near my avatar, quite understandably, but notice he is looking to your right. So if you take your mouse in your left hand and very slowly move it towards the white tick on the green background, he may not see you.

At this point, click quickly and escape.

I'd love to talk to you on Skype, but I don't feel like reading the user agreement crap that says I must accept before I can sign up.

I am glad you would like to talk to me. And if you don't like the user agreement, that is up to you. However I never read any of these agreements and I am still here.

I would like to talk to you on skype, but I don't want to talk to anyone right now.

 

[burkeus]

Still. I'm not sure I like words that begin with St. And "still" reminds me of moonshine. Moonshine reminds me of illegal alcohol. Illegal alcohol reminds me of other things best left in the realm of the unknown. And also when I talk to you, I believe I am probably just talking to myself. So why should I do such a thing. I mean, what if I fell in love, gazing at you through the veil of makebelieve. I would be falling in love with myself. What's that called? Well, I'd be none other than Narcissus.

You don't want to talk to anyone right now. Is that right?

Narcissus did not know that that the reflection in the pond was himself. Anymore than Oedipus knew it was his father he killed, or that it was his mother he slept with.

And it is this not knowing that is the essence of Greek tragedy.

This is more of a farce.

 

[Falcarius]

I added Victor and rhinosaur.

Add me or whatever, I am not bothered as long as you don't ring me up at the middle of the night on a working day.

 

[Mole]

If you wish to speak to me on Skype, just click on the green and white tick under my avatar.

Just one click and my warm muzzle will be whispering in your tender ear.

 

[Anja]

Okay, Victor. I'm giving this a try. . .

 

[Bella]

Is this for real talk, or more typing?

(And does it always come with a warm muzzle?)

 

[Mole]

Okay, Victor. I'm giving this a try. . .

Anja, what is your Skype name?

My Skype name is shortus.

But so far you are not showing up on my Skype.

 

[Anja]

The test said my voice wasn't coming through.

The name is Anjanita1.

I used to talk to people a while back. Do I need a mic for this or to enable one on my computer?

 

[Anja]

Hey, Bella!

 

[Mole]

Is this for real talk, or more typing?

(And does it always come with a warm muzzle?)

I am ready with my head phone and mic for real time conversation. So it is real talk not typing. It is like the telephone. But free across the world.

O, I see.


Yes, mommy Anja....

 

[Anja]

So. My problem is that I own no microphone. Heh. That explains that.

Once upon a time I could just talk to my computer and others answered.

You probably know that I'm nearly computer illiterate.

 

[Anja]

O, I see.


Yes, mommy Anja....

Oh goody - a chaperone!

I'm a little scared of those warm "muzzles."

I head phone and mic are best. But a mic on your computer will do.

I will try and contact you on Anjanita1

They told me that on the internet, no one would know I was a mountain lion. But I guess I gave myself away.
