I'm just very, very
sleepy. <g> I have read, but
will reread again
ALL the things that have been posted.
Don't
always expect a direct response. Sometimes
the
response may be buried in a sonnet . . . or
encoded
in the design. Of course, sometimes I may
just
completely blank out <smile> so never be
offended.

Glow and SuperNatural Lawyer ( And Notes
to FP)

The key to the portal
is to write sonnets in perfect iambic pentameter and the
Oracle holds the key. So we have to write at least one
sonnet in iambic pentameter (even though my dictionary
says that sonnets are only "usually" written in iambic
pentameter)to please Forensic.
I have known this
for a while and maybe that's why I have resisted. I
don't follow arbitrary orders very well and just
couldn't help but to test how far he would take it. I
need logical reasons for a course of
action.
That's what all that stuff about the
tribe and the code and following the rules or they will
shun you is likely about.
Also, I believe there
is only one FP but he may be in cahoots with others who
are supporting him. However, I still haven't a clue as
to who Forensic Popouri may be.
Question to FP: If
the Oracle is programmed by The Powers That Tea how can
it/he judge what has a soul?
PS to FP: I knew
that the second sonnet lesson was only bait and thats
why I didn't reply. I also knew it was payback for my
annoying you at Tea Time so I'm sorry. My
bad.

One more clue from
today's tea time:
"THE PORTAL here. The
shimm'ring wall, right there
is under my control. I
am the key. "
So the Oracle, The Powers That Tea,
is the key and controls the portal. Hhhmmmmm so if he's
the key are we supposed to find out who he is? No, I
don't think so, I think the point is to find out the
purpose of the portal and he is the key that opens it.
The key has all of the answers, which we must find out
for ourselves.
More Clues: Mister Verschip
posted this in today's tea time and the Oracle said that
Mister Verschip said the "sonnet keyword"
"The
tribe of Hollywood requires a
code.
If you do not conform to all their
rules,
they'll quickly SHUN you, say "Jack, hit
the road.
They see outsiders as a bunch of fools.
"
Which word is the keyword: tribe, code or shun,
or all or some other one?
Whose rules?
Hollywood's rules or the Oracle's rules? If we shun the
Oracle's rules, will he shun us? Who are the outsiders?
Or is this just for fun?
*Sigh* okay enough for
now!
I'll check back later to see what the
results are.
:o)

Yeah I read that
thread too. Do you think he's exaggerating? Maybe not.
It would probably take me that long to just compose a
proper Shakespearean sonnet. LOL
For both
prunehilda and SNL:
So, I've finally read yesterday's
Tea Time threads and these are some of the clues I got,
but I'm not going to analyse them yet, I'm tired of
thinking hard.
Clues from yesterday's Tea
Time:
-humanity
-only humans pass
-rhetorical
verse is a mixture of two things: Poetry and
Law.
-Asoul, not just soul.
Clues from
today's Tea
Time:
-Hollywood
-Shun
-Code
-soul
(again)
-Charm
I'm sure you all noticed these
and I probably missed a few too.
One more thing,
I was re-reading FP's thread on "Why I post in
Shakespearan Sonnets" and these two lines caught my
eye.
"One's argument, you're always in
suspense...
of your conclusion, 'til you reach the
fence."
Well, FP et al. surely have us in
suspense and I think they're going to hold out on us
until the very end, for sonnet 154!
Oh and
another thing. I had just finished watching the last ep
for season 3, you know when the scoobies graduate from
highschool, etc., well Buffy and Faith share a dream in
that ep and Faith said to Buffy, "Human weakness never
goes away." I think Faith was referring to both Angel
and the mayor. Both are not human, but they kept their
human tendencies, i.e. weakness. Since humanity means
the fact or quality of being human, isn't human weakness
just a symptom of humanity? Therefore, doesn't that mean
they (Angel and the mayor and Mister_Verschip for that
matter) may have a speck of humanity?
What do you
all think?

Earlier today Merv and
FP had a conversation and FP mentioned that he was
spending 18 hours a day working out the kinks of Tea
Time. God I wish he would just open up a little
bit.
I know you'll read this later tonight FP.
You know I couldn't resist finding out a little more
about you...the conspiracy and all.

Yeah, you're probably
right. I think it was the lack of sugar in my system
that made me think he could be Joss.
Okay, I'm
going to read yesterday's Tea Time threads. It seems
that I missed out on a lot.

I definitely thought
of the connection Joss (or another wirter from the show)
and FP... but this thought is getting further and
further as I am reading older Tea Times. FP seems just
like "any other Bronzers" (I don't mean that in any
derogatory way!). I am not sure any person connected
with the show would have the liberty to connect to the
Bronze at fixed hour everyday and even stay on that
late. Also, why would they talk about meeting JM at the
grocery store?
No, I am getting the feeling this
person is a "computer guy" (programmer? analyst? ... )
working from home, with the liberty to arrange their
schedule around tea time. Does that make any
sense??

First FP wrote it as
babble fish, but then he changed it to babel. I think
he's referring to the city of Babel that is mentioned in
the bible. So I looked up Babel in my trusty dictionary
and it states: (1) Babel was a city thwarted in building
a tower to heaven when God created a confusion of
tongues. (2) a confusion of voices, sounds, etc. or the
scene of this.
So, is FP saying that we are a
babel because we have been conversing not only in
English, but in French as well?
I think Tea Time
is a babel because there is so much confusion in FP's
clues and it's also confusing as to the purpose and
final destination of Tea Time. Hhmmmmm...I just thought
of something else. Look at the first definition of
Babel. Are we the people of Babel building a tower to
heaven, heaven being the outcome of this sonnetizing
experiment, and then God creates a confusion of tongues.
Is the God here Forensic Popouri or is it us with our
attempts at verse that's creating the din of noise? It
seems to make sense.
However, perhaps heaven
isn't the outcome of Tea Time, but the conclusion of
season six. Then that would make the God in this
scenario Joss.
WAIT! Does that mean FP is
actually Joss? GASP! Duckwheat did tell me once that he
thought monkeywithoutpants was Joss. Re:
monkeywithoutpants is one of FP's alter egos. No it's
not possible. Joss is a very busy man. He doesn't have
time for this.
Okay this is just too much for my
mind and grumbling stomach. I must go and tend to my
french fries.
One more thing. Speaking of the
bible and Fish. Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he can eat for a lifetime. Or
something like that. Perhaps FP is trying to teach us
how to fish/create sonnets. Grrrr arrrggg! I don't
know!!!!

Just passing by
(again, I am busy doing actual legal work... this HAS to
stop!! It's starting to get in the way in my life as a
conspirator!). Have you read yesterday's (Sunday) tea
time? I think it's full of interesting clues about FP
and the Portal. Look forward to decipher them with
you!
Enjoy the French fries (anything French is
always appealing to
me!)
"babblefish"????

Hiya Supernatural
Lawyer, prunehilda and of course of fantastic host
Forensic Popouri and all of his counterparts.
I'm
going to make some french fries and come back to read
over the threads from yesterday's and today's Tea Times.
I heard that fish is considered brain food. Good thing I
ate some last night. Perhaps it will help me disect
Forensic Popouri's cipher
speak.
