On the topic of Alistair, Caroline's sister, and her namesake:
SamniteX (5:47:45 PM): you know all this time I've been talking about Alistair Crowley, not Cooke?
Caroline1731 (5:47:52 PM): alistair crowley?
Caroline1731 (5:48:06 PM): he's kind of hot, but what's the deal?
Caroline1731 (5:48:12 PM): [actually, he's not. I take that back]
SamniteX (5:48:28 PM): he was an occultist
Caroline1731 (5:48:49 PM): so why have you been talking about him all this time? all what time?
Caroline1731 (5:49:03 PM): and his name is "alEister"
Caroline1731 (5:49:06 PM): not alistair
SamniteX (5:49:28 PM): I noticed that
SamniteX (5:49:44 PM): cause that was the only alistair (or aleister) that I'd ever heard of
Caroline1731 (5:49:53 PM): so you thought my sister was named for an occultist?
SamniteX (5:50:03 PM): I said that
Caroline1731 (5:50:04 PM): when in actuality she was named for cute little alistair cooke?
SamniteX (5:50:07 PM): I thought it was really amusing
SamniteX (5:50:44 PM): I was like, "it's funny that the only aleister I know of is aleister crowley and he thought he was a wizard"
SamniteX (5:51:11 PM): and you were like, "yeah, but he was also the host of masterpiece theater"
SamniteX (5:51:16 PM): I was like, "okay"
Caroline1731 (5:51:53 PM): hahahaha
Caroline1731 (5:52:15 PM): you are so misled
SamniteX (5:53:07 PM): I'm sorry that I'd only heard of the occultist and not the well-known TV host
Caroline1731 (5:53:12 PM): hahaha
Caroline1731 (5:53:13 PM): okay
SamniteX (5:53:14 PM): it's your fault for implying that they were the same person
Caroline1731 (5:53:22 PM): I just ignored you
Caroline1731 (5:53:35 PM): you never said "crowley"
Caroline1731 (5:53:38 PM): you just "wizard"
Caroline1731 (5:53:49 PM): and I was like, "Maybe he did think he was a wizard, cute little old men can be wizards"
Caroline1731 (5:54:30 PM): alistair cooke is the man
Caroline1731 (5:54:32 PM): read this!
Caroline1731 (5:54:33 PM): In 1968, he was yards away from Robert F. Kennedy when he was assassinated, and was a witness to the events that followed.
SamniteX (5:54:59 PM): I definitely said crowley
SamniteX (5:55:08 PM): If there's one thing I know it's occultists
...
Caroline1731 (5:58:32 PM): you are so STRANGE! I am still recovering from the shock that you thought my sister was named for a heroin user who thought he was a wizard
SamniteX (5:59:19 PM): well, Led Zeppelin was obsessed with him
SamniteX (5:59:25 PM): and I hadn't met your parents at the time
SamniteX (5:59:36 PM): so I thought they might have been crazy hippies
SamniteX (5:59:39 PM): at some point
SamniteX (5:59:43 PM): (of course, they're SO not)
Caroline1731 (5:47:52 PM): alistair crowley?
