TREE FIDDY>
I remeber when Chef was jsut a three year old little man. He came running up to me with his litle chef's hat on, and he said,

"Papa!"
I said, "What do you need, Chef ma boy?"
And he said, "I need about tree fiddy."

"Well, it was about that time that I go suspicious. I said, Chef, why do you need tree fiddy?"

He said, "my imaginary friend boo boo the dinosaur wants it." I went to my son's room and sure enough, there was the loch Ness monster.

"Oh, it was scary!"

I said, Damnit monster! You stop buggin' my chuldren now! We work for our money in this house and we don't give it away!"

Just got back from Glen Allen, and am pleased to report that the Strokes rocked the Egon Pax-ing house. Would have liked to have heard them play "Under Control," but there's always next time.

DTaina: The D/E pairing is not COMPLETELY stupid. When it ends with a bloodbath, it's actually quite nice.

And more and more I wish I could make it out to California. Keith David is very high on my list of celebrities I'd like to meet (among others).

The Grimorum Anthology will absolutely be available to purchase at the Gathering! There'll also be an official Signing Party, with all attending contributors (and most of those who can't attend are sending stickers to autograph-by-proxy).

As for there being too much to do -- HEY! Better than not enough! People were going to complain either way, and I'd much rather see them saying there were too many choices than that they were sittoung around bored.

The loch ness monster can be tricky, it's almost like the master of disguise because it can take many forms. I swear I'm not lying when I say that I have seen the loch ness monster dozens of times because a lot of people have said to me "I need about tree fidy." Even my dad has asked me for tree fidy *Looks suspiciously at dad*

Anyway, for a Gargoyles related topic, I just got of few more of my friends interested. Yay, the more the merrier.

"The new comic books costs $3.50. This better another trick by that crazy Loch Ness Monster."

What's that mean? $3.50 is a pretty good price for a thirty-two page comic, given that you can't find most of the standard 20ish page comics for less than $2.25 or $2.50 these days.

Patrick: You mean you didn't get one? I'd show it to you, but I didn't save it, since I'm not a sports fan. To me, Canada's greatest export is still Rush. Or Elisha Cuthbert, depending on how much zinc I have in my diet.

And don't forget there's lots of fundamentialists in Pennsylvania. Maybe his keyboard wasn't working properly because he poured too much holy water on it. Boy, I hope the company doesn't need me to take my licensing test for Pennsylvania, but they're short on PA Claims Adjustors, so I doubt I'll be that lucky.

And why would the Loch Ness Monster play a trick concerning the comic? I thought they and gargoyles were cool with each other.

Grimorum Arcanorum Anthology! I can't attend the Gathering this year, but I get a copy of the Anthology! I submitted one of my works (though I fear it's severely outdone by better artists), and it was my first attempt at digitally editing a drawing. Hopefully, I'll have some other drawings uploaded to my DeviantArt account shortly.

It's nice to hear that Darkwing Duck and Talespin are being released on DVD. I watched both of them when I was a kid, and really loved Talespin. It's been years since I've seen an episode... definitely on the to-buy list.

Dragomir - My monitor is a bit dark/bright and color saturated (I've tried adjustments, the thing's just broken), so my graphics tend to look different to other people than what I'm going for. I'm trying to get a new monitor right now, to correct that. The layout looks nice to me, but I need to edit it so that it looks the same to others. The links don't work because the content isn't finished.
Macbeth and Demona... They're just destined for each other. Like you said, in the end of all things, they only have each other. They'd always have the other to rely on; keep them sane as all they know perishes. A constant anchor in a sea of change. Before Demona went loony-loony, they were good friends. Their personalities contrasted well. Heck, Demona was more affectionate towards him than anyone else we've seen other than Goliath and Angela.
Andrea/Demona makes my left eye twitch, so I'll keep the ranting in check. Demona/Elisa... I think you're right. It's pretty much based on guys wanting to see two babes together. Doesn't matter if they hate each other, as long as they're attractive and not related.

Battle Beast-- O_o... uh... it's a bimonthly, 32-page comic book series. We've kinda... known that for a while, now. They'll register as graphic novels once TPBs are released (which we also know SLG was planning on doing). They're just going to be longer than the average comic, which I don't think is too terribly unusual for a bimonthly series. **Shrug** As for the "paperback" thing on Amazon... I've noticed that they only have two descriptions for books, that being "paperback" and "hardcover." Even though Gargs is gonna be a comic, it's not a hardcover, so... ^_-

Now for something completely different.

I noticed something amusing in my most recent viewing of "Star Trek: Generations." There's a scene close to the end of the movie where Riker jokingly tells Picard that "I plan to live forever." I found this amusing because A) When he did the voice of Xanatos, Jonathon Frakes just used his natural voice (or it seemed like he was), and B) that line sounds like something Xanatos would say. Maybe it's been mentioned by someone before, but I don't live in the archives. Anyway, I just found it very amusing.

Battle Beast - Cool news about Talespin and DWD boxed sets... if only Disney would go back and re-release C&D's Rescue Rangers and Ducktales with the pilots included.

Oh, and BB... not to sound like a wet sack on the Oiler's parade, but I'm rooting for the Mighty Ducks to face Buffalo in the Cup Finals. Granted, I'm a loyal Lightning fan... but considering the Ducks were in the playoffs once before and didn't make it (much like the Lightning did before the lockout), they're due a shot at Lord Stanley's hardware.

BTW, should the Oilers come through and win the Cup, hope they appreciate the nice 'tan' it got while the good folks here in Tampa Bay took care of it. ^___^

Demona didn't "regain consciousness wherever she fell." She simply glided away once she got her balance back. Greg has addressed that specifically.

"Question received on Sat, March 30, 2002 01:23:58 PM
WereFox writes...

Greg

In your mind, when Demona fell from the castle at the end of Awakenings 5 what happened to her? Did she manage to recover from her tumbling fall beneath the falling masonry and glide away? Or did she pancake into the pavement, shattering every bone in her body, and then recover a la her link with MacBeth?
Greg responds...

The former.
Response recorded on January 12, 2004"

Moreover, it had to be that way, as it would go against the assertion that neither Demona nor Macbeth have ever had their heads chopped off or had anything else absolutely fatal happen to them, and I think falling off the world's tallest building counts as fatal. The link doesn't just give them some magical Recovery Factor (TM). We don't know what would happen if Demona were to have something like that happen to her, because it never has. I wrote an essay all about this at gargoyles-fans.org

Wow. Greg Weisman. He slices, dices, and can julienne an entire sack of potatoes in under three minutes. But wait! He's also a never-ending spring of answers to questions about "Gargoyles" (unless you're asking the Fox-Titania question).

Todd: Yeah, exactly. She screws with Demona's perception of reality. I think that's ultimately one of the great things about the character (and the show in general). It's usually tricky to pin motives down to just one reason. Just like life, it's usually a gray tapestry.

We've also seen just where human life falls on Demona's scale of values. I like to think that once Demona regained consciousness wherever she fell at the end of "Awakening," she was probably insulted beyond belief.

Battle Beast-- Uh, it's a comic, so naturally they're listing it as a paperback, not a hard cover. 32 pages is hardly a "graphic novel"... it'll qualify for that once several issues are compiled into a trade paperback. 32 pages isn't quite double the average book (I don't think), but it IS noticably longer than the average comic.

We have car flags out the Oilers logo on EVERY third car. One person in ten will NOT have watched the last game. THIS IS A BIG BIG DEAL.

I know how big the Sox win was. I cheered them on to the bitter end. (I dislike the Yankees.) This is just as big.

Our Football team has the longest profesional sports record of making the post season (34 years straight) so we always know thye will be in it. But our hockey team doesn't always make it. THIS IS A BIG DEAL.

Of course, another big reason why Demona hates Elisa (if one that's probably been brought up here many times) is this. Demona's been firmly believing for the past thousand years that humanity is utterly hostile towards gargoyles, is incapable of living in peace with them, will always hate them and want to destroy them. In fact, she almost *has* to believe it, because it keeps her from facing the fact that her misfortunes are as much due to her own actions as to human prejudice against gargoyles - and to admit that she was wrong would mean admitting that she's wasted the past thousand years of her life. And now Elisa comes along who is a true and loyal friend to the gargoyles, who has indeed accepted them. Can you imagine what that's going to do to Demona once she finds out about it? This isn't just jealousy of a "Keep your hands off my mate!" nature, not just fury over Elisa foiling her plans. The real deep-down reason, I believe, why Demona hates Elisa so much is that Elisa runs contrary to one of Demona's most cherished cornerstone beliefs.

Part of the animosity may also be that the first time Elisa and Demona formally met, Elisa dive-tackled her and made her miss her shot.

The Oilers are winning? That explains why gasoline prices keep going up.

<<...they are the only two attractive main character females on the show who aren't related or married to Xanatos (I am of course referring to Fox and Angela)>>

Fox and Angela are BOTH married to Xanatos? Now THAT would be an interesting fanfic.

HoE> Well, wonder no more. Demona knew about Goliath's feelings for Elisa well before GOliath himself did.

Greg writes:
I always wondered what if anything Demona thought about that ancient conflict way back when. Was Iago playing her as well? Trying to make her jealous of Desdemona? I think maybe he did try. But wouldn't it be cool if she didn't credit it for a second. If she just knew intuitively that Desdemona didn't present any threat at all to her relationship with G? Because, I feel the opposite is true. That Demona knew intuitively that Elisa DID present a threat. Say what you want for Demona, but her subconscious knows her man.

Greg B: Yeah. I knew that. One of the things I loved about the show's storyline is that there WAS denial from one party. Makes things more interesting (not to mention realistic). What I meant was that it really didn't take on the form of a true romance (in that neither one of them were trying to hide what they felt, and in that sense, everything was on the surface) until the end of "Hunter's Moon." Guess I should have been clearer.

What I'm wondering is whether or not Demona knew about Goliath's feelings. She did see that moment on the WTC rooftop in "The Mirror," unless she was too busy seething over her latest defeat. Now that both Elisa and Goliath have it out in the open, THAT should really piss Demona off when she finds out. *sigh* June 28th just can't get here fast enough.

HoE> I would suggest you re-watch the series then. Goliath and Elisa had feelings for each other well before "Hunter's Moon". Goliath wanted to talk about it since "The Mirror", but Elisa would always cut him off.

And yes, Demona did notice the unspoken feelings between the two. It's one of the reasons she hates Elisa so much. She's not an idiot, she knows Goliath really well, maybe better than he knows himself.

Dragomir: I don't think the feelings between Goliath and Elisa really came to the surface until "Hunter's Moon," at least for each other. I think that for the first 65 episodes, one of the reasons Demona wanted Elisa dead is because Elisa is a good human, which screws with Demona's happy little perception of reality. That, and Elisa's the one Goliath saved when the wall crumbled.

D.Taina= OH MY GOD!! LOL, your Demona/Elisa fancomic on deviant art is by far the funniest piece of fan work I have ever seen! Great job! The art is fantastic and I so didn't see the end coming because I serious thought it was just another Demonalisa pairing (it starts out so sweet and sappy...yuck). I loved it and thanks for making it, it really made my day. I have seriously been waiting to see Demona finally kill Elisa for years now, and in such a frightening way (reminds me of Eds death at the hands of Envy from Full Metal Alchemist). Excuse me now as I play this tape in honor of Miss Maza's demise, "Ding dong the witch is dead, ding dong the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!" LOL, (:

Makhasu= I like it thus far, but the picture is a bit dark and when I clicked on a link a blasted pop up appeared (hate pop ups, grrrr). But I think those little new flashes you posted are hilarious, Brook and Elisa? LOL! I think I can see Demona and MacBeth pairing off in the FAR OFF future as well, perhaps after realizing that in the end all they really have is eachother, considering how everyone else they know and love will eventually perish (really sad to be honest...though they both have a lot in common).
I too dislike the Demona and Maza pairing, since it is perhaps one of, if not the, least likely of all fan pairings. Those two despise eachother for crying out loud, the countless number of catfights they have engaged in over the years is proof of that. Especially in Demona's case, Elisa stole the heart of the male she loved, so of course she'd hate her guts and want her dead out of pure jealousy alone (I'm not a big fan of Maza, but realize Demona's hatred is what pushed Goliath away).
I agree with a comment I read in D. Taina's deviant art page, I think guys my age enjoy the Demonalisa pairing because they are the only two attractive main character females on the show who aren't related or married to Xanatos (I am of course referring to Fox and Angela). I'm a twenty year old guy, so I'de be lying if I said the idea of girl on girl fanfics didn't appeal to me (I'm a frequent reader of Christine Morgans Fanfics, which of course have many scenes involving Demona and her lover/underling Godiva together, and loads of adult oriented fanart). But I draw the line with Maza because its too unrealistic and conflicts with both their personas. However, I am a supporter of Demona/Andrea, I think they are sweet together, Andrea such a cool character and I wish there were more TGS fanfics with her in them (I'm almost done withs season 2 of TGS, just finished Darkest Hour Part II, eager to see how Demona reacts to Andrea being gay). P.S. I also think SLG Demona's hair looks off, kinda like a Super Saiyan, but the rest of her looks great!

This message board would hardly have a chance of becoming THE hub for "Gargoyles" fandom if any mentions of fanfiction and fanart are forbidden. The comic book coming out next month is the first bit of new canon material we've had in a decade. What has kept the fandom alive all this time? Endless discussions of the episodes we taped off the Disney Afternoon are a small part, but fanfiction, fanart, and fan conventions have played a significant role, as well.

As for the TGS comment room... technically, more bots are posting there these days than live people, which is why I rarely go there anymore. I'm hoping that board will get revamped as this one did, to make it harder for spammers to fill it with commercial blather.

Also, technically, the fanfic character of Andrea has appeared in more non-TGS stories than TGS stories.

Especially in the Gargoyles universe, since finding fics and art that focus solely on canon characters is hard. I hate going to Gargoyles fanart galleries and finding only two pictures of canon characters. Most fanworks focus on fanon characters that are either related to canon characters, falling in love with them, saving the day, forming their own clans, tutning into gargoyles, getting mutated, having mystical powers, etc...

::De-lurks briefly::

You know, if the Comment Room is actually going to become THE hub for "Gargoyles" fans of all ages as Greg W. seems to hope it might, should there maybe be some guidelines for what get discussed in here? I'm not saying this discussion that's going on now is necessarily something that should be taboo. But some people might consider it a tad risque and as far as I know, there currently aren't any rules that tell posters what's OK and what's not.

Ultimately, of course, the decision to do or not do anything like this rests with Gore. But it might be worth discussing not only whether their should be any rules of conduct for the comment room, but also whether people who post here noe actually want the room to be set up as the premiere place to talk "Gargoyles" if that may mean putting some limits on what can be discussed here.

Just a thought.

I have seen a number of such pairings in a number of fandoms, namely fanart since I don't read that much fanfic. I will never understand the logic behind some of these, but they can be a hoot to watch, especially because there is no way most of them are the least bit canon/possible.

Mild Demona-Macbeth 'shipper. Pretty much realistic over uber-romantic, and very much based on the CoS commentary as much as what I've seen myself. I just can't put it down for some reason.

In the "Kim Possible" fandom, the term "Kigo" is shorthand for the Kim / Shego pairing. Strange that after all this time we don't have similar words in this fandom for all the various oddball 'shipping that goes on in fanfic.

All I know for sure is that in my ficverse, Macbeth, Brooklyn or Elisa would have to get past Andrea first to get to Demona. ;)

Though the characters solely related to them in the story will be included as well (Duncan, Gillecomgain, Gruoch, etc...)

Brooklyn/Elisa is about as likely as Xanatos/Fang. Well, maybe SLIGHTLY more likely. Demona/Elisa is just plain weird. I love D. Taina's recent art concerning the pairing: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/33023384/

Makhasu: Damn, 200 screenshots from just one episode? Good luck with that. I always look forward to good screenshots for fanart references and such. I visit DTaina's site everyday for updates-(I'm waiting D. taina! Lol ;))

Brook/Elisa: Nah, can't see it. They have no chemistry-they hardly communicate with each other throughout the series(but at least it's not as stupid as the Demona/Elisa paring ;P) Though I can see Macbeth and Demona pairing up WAAAY in the future.

And you think Goliath's a "doggy?" Come on! He's sexy beefcake Gargoyle-meat ;P

D. Taina - Oh, I don't think the relationship went too slow. I love the way it was portrayed in the series: very realistic. I'm just joking and poking fun at stereotypes.
As for the website, I'll probably be making the frame larger shortly. Just getting an idea on the look and final design.
BTW, I LOVE your website! I visit fairly often, especially for art references.

Makhasu: Hey, nice webpage. But you might want to make the in-line frame bigger. It looks extremely small on my monitor and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks so. It's incredibly hard to read the text, too. You could try using percentages instead of pixels; that should make the site work on all monitors.

One thing, though. You think Goliath and Elisa's relationship was going too slow? Remember that Goliath kept trying to tell her that he loved her (or something to that effect), and she was the one who kept silencing him. I really don't know where you got this idea that Elisa was waiting for Goliath to profess his love for her...

And hey, you're planning to put together a screenshots website! That's great. So far, I've only seen three or four of them (mine included - click my name!) The more the merrier!

Purplegoldfish - Thanks. I like to write oddball futures for characters. I'm sure the relationship with Goliath was going WAY too slow (it took a few more years before he even said "I love you"), so she dumped him and grabbed Brooklyn (not gay, not taken, not old, and not a doggy). I'm working on content for the site right now. I took about 640 dvd screenshots last night just from one episode, and about 200 or so should make it into the gallery. There's gonna be lots of stuff when I finish it and get everything uploaded.

I'm almost completely finished with the layout for my Mac 'n D shrine. I really want to know what you guys think of it. Only the main page is there, to show what it looks like. Don't bother clicking the links. I know that content area is a bit small, but it should work okay and an iframe layout is much easier to manage.

Little late contribution to the Avatar discussion, but I was busy yesterday. As far as avatars are concerned, I like both Demonas. In both of them, she looks ready to kill something, but the SLG Demona does have the added bonus of fire. And I looooooove fire. The next time I have a really meaty post, I'll try out the SLG and see how it fits on that one.

Blaqthorne: Very well, then. I shall find the answer, the only way I know how.

Spen, how long has Blaqthorne been posting here?

I believe the ramble this fellow refers to is at
http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=3761

Here Greg Weisman reflects on the gargoyles disinclination towards naming things, and ponders whether ancient gargoyles had abilities that diminished the need for human-style language.

Contrails>>
Greg Weisman, if you're reading this, contrails are not the exhaust from airplane engines per se. Contrails are condensation formed by planes, hence the "con" in "contrail."

B&CF > I have no idea what the ad on this page does. I'd assume it supports Station 8, but you'd have to ask Gorebash. On brand new DVDs like the links we have on the Gathering site, you're buying from Amazon.com. I've never really been tempted to look at the "used" items on Amazon because that's what Ebay is for.

We have a couple of new guests up on the Guests page over at our web site, including the former President of Walt Disney TV Animation, Gary Krisel. We'd also like to remind everyone that the cut-off date for hotel reservations is one week from today.

7 days left to reserve hotel rooms.
19 days left to pre-register for the convention.
39 days left until The Gathering 2006 in Valencia, California!

Patrick re: DVD ad> But other retailers also do the same. Does the ad on THIS page actually support the con, or does it support Station 8? I personally don't shop at Amazon. I try to keep the number of web retailers to a minimum, so when I shop online, the vast majority (pretty much everything I don't import from Japan) of my purchases are from buy.com. They're cheaper than Amazon; have basically the same selection as Amazon, maybe more; and when I buy from Buy.com, I'm actually buying from Buy.com, not Joe-Bob's in Teaneck, NJ. Most of the time I see something I'm interested in at Amazon, it's not actually Amazon that I would be buying from (not to mention some of the "new" items they have listed as "new" are used--the description actually says it was used).

Harvester> I'm just curious, that's all.
