Hello. While I am on Christmas break, I will un-redirect this. :) Cheers!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 20:31, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

I think you'll have to re-watch that page, too. And my gnomish self just discovered that "de-redirect" would be better than "un-redirect." :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 21:09, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Or not. Bah. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:32, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

So I got bored...
...and started poking around. ROFLOL! &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 01:33, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow. "Poking around"? That's a lot of poking... :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 18:02, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 'Twas a quiet weekend...methinks. Hey, Grandma! Look, I'm writing on some guy's talk page. :D
 * Sorry, had to do that. Btw, I thought you were the one always doing the poking around where you shouldn't... Work out that double-entendre. :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 20:32, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ewwwwww you are sick. Go target my master with that kinda talk - he seems to like to toy with you anyway.  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 21:46, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * He does? That's new on me. I thought it annoyed him...which is why I did it. Hm...perhaps he's sick...
 * Anyhow, if you ever need me, I'll be at Ed's place so we can be sick together. ;P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 22:52, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I picked up internet from a house two doors down!!! "Poor" quality signal, but...
 * Hope you had fun at Ed's. I had to work... -_-  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:14, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You know you're a 'holic when, not only do you use Wikipedia well into the wee hours, but you do it behind your mom's back, during the HOLIDAY SEASON, leaching internet off your neighbors. :P
 * More fun than can be posted here cleanly, or at least without getting beheaded by Icy. :} &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:29, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh hush, it's only 11:35 here. I'm bored and I want to be on here! (and this signal sucks...so if I don't reply, I lost the connection. -_-)
 * Lol! Sounds interesting...you sick kid... :) (fix the bolding please so I don't waste an edit here...=/)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:35, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooh, so we're now in the same time zone. Score! :D
 * I hath done as thou wisht, honourable sir. ;) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:40, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yay! Signal's back...I wonder for how long...  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:29, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Enjoy! Hope to see ya soon - bed time now. :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 07:09, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * And...I was busy at your slavedriver's. Slavedriver...heh. I did most of the whippin', though. :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 07:10, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * What are you doing up so late on a school night, dear? :D
 * I foresee Icy murdering someone in the near future... :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 07:12, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Catching up on homework... Better: My frequent encounters with your slavedriver has made me nocturnal. So it's his fault, really.
 * So do I...but dost I care? The whippin' was good. :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 07:14, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) Lol well have fun being tired tomorrow (says the one who has no school until, you guessed it, mid-Jan.) Maybe you should check with Ed. Are you sure that he liked it? :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 07:18, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Late class today, so I can afford it. :P
 * He always likes it. He tries to pretend he doesn't but...his loud moans, screams, and frantic pleas for me to let him have me, not to mention always begging for more the morning after, betray that. ;} &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 18:23, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * O_O Icy, please, get your scythe, PLEASE! HURRY! SHE'S CRAZY!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 19:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Scythes? Soooooooo outdated. YOU DESERVE A PISTOL!! (holds back vomit, face turns green) Icy  // ♫ 20:45, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed. I'll help you with taking her out with that pistol... :}  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 23:07, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I am invincible! Try me - bullets, scythes, butcher knifes, nothing will work. I am immortal! Mwahahahaha! *burrrp* Wooooo, I think I had too much champagne at the Christmas party... &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 23:12, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Bull. We can tell...ya crazy alkie. :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 23:14, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No bull. I am Wonder Woman! Because I'm always wandering... :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 23:16, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * A wonder in bed. :D SORRY ICY, COULDN'T RESIST AN INSULT OF MY OWN!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 23:18, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Really? The thing is, we never did it on the bed like civilized people; always up on some queer surface somewhere...like the kitchen counter, the stairs, the banister, the piano, the floor, the closet, the fireplace, the sofa, the roof, almost every chair in the house, and even up against the wall. SORRY ICY, COULDN'T RESIST MY OWN COMEBACK! &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 23:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I know that we are making all of this up, but seriously - the roof? That's a wee bit farfetched, my dear. At least make it believable (well, somewhat... :))))  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 23:29, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It was all true! Remember? You wanted to look at the stars that clear night, with the moon shining in our eyes and our hearts beating together to the strains of crickets in the bush. So we climbed up through the attic and onto the rooftops to gaze at the stars and at each other in the dark. The calmness of it all was stunning - hardly a sound or sight for miles, besides the small critters in the surrounding trees. Our love was strongest then, your body next to mine, and our souls joined in ecstatic unison... I'm sure everyone has puked now...I, for one, am laughing my sox off. :D :D :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 23:34, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) Would your Grandma want to read all of this? :P Same here, Pianiata. The same here. :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 00:08, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well...she could care less. She spends 80% of her life listening to opera in her room, 10% Bible studying, and the other 10% cooking...I had to teach her how to use a DVD player. >.> "Pianiata"? What happened to the sexy, romantic, irresistible Ed, who never misspelled my name? Shame, shame what happens to love over time...
 * Wait... IS THERE ANOTHER WOMAN??! &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:33, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * :o Icy  // ♫ 02:42, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * For all I know, it could be Icy...
 * Edward, out with it! O, say thou loveth me! Say it again and again, like the olden days! Kiss me, kiss me thousands of times - o, where art thou! Why must thou subject me to such treatment? *breaks down sobbing* &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:44, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * LOL! Well, my Grandma can use e-mail and her TV, but she focuses on organ playing and cooking I think...(and man, does she make goooood food...)
 * O ya, I forgot to tell you that the big, bad college kid hooked up with the 8th grader just the other day. :D
 * What treatment? O dear, what havest I done to thou?  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:21, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooh, same here. She cooks killer chicken soup and roast beef - nothing better than that for the flu. :)
 * O RLY? Told ya...pervert. :P
 * Hast thou ever heard of the classic sign of adultery? Calling your beloved by the name of your other? Who is this "Pianiata"? I demand it! ...O, dost thou loveth me anymore? I shall die, DIE, if thou sayest otherwise... Pst! It's "what havest I done to thee". Object, not subject. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 21:05, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Tetrarch ACR
Hey there! Responded to your points on the ACR if you have a minute to take a look! Thanks for commenting, Skinny87 (talk) 18:53, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

why the change?
How come you're using this account instead of you're standard one? Cam (Chat) 00:23, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm home from college, so I'm leeching off a neighbor's internet or using my mom's computer when I'm on here. I don't really want to use my normal account and get it blocked if the kid next door (or my mom) decides to hijack my password (my mom absolutely hates Wikipedia...). Stupid reasoning, yes, but better safe than sorry... If something happens where my mom shows that she doesn't hate Wikipedia, then I'll use the_ed17 off that cpu, but I'm not using that account on this laptop while I'm not on NMU's internet....you never know. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 00:31, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. My parents are indifferent to my usage of the 'Pedia (provided I keep bringing home 90's, that is;) Cam (Chat) 00:35, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I get high 80's to 90's, and she still hates it... :(  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 01:21, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I got a 99 on my last music theory finals, and she still hates it... &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:56, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Would it be considered spamming...
...if I sent you this link? Ah, well, I did it anyways... :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 21:56, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Awwww, dangit... Icy  // ♫ 22:41, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * LOL! Well, I bookmarked it, and I will check it when I can... :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 23:56, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
 * And be sure to comment on each and every post. That is, if you still want "privileges" every other night. :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:34, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, I promise that I'll try too... It'll be tough. ;)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:35, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * But better than forced abstinence, no? &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:36, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Possibly. You never know, you know. :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:37, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * ...That has got to be the most anti-gnome sentence I ever saw..."You never know, you know." Wut?
 * Anyhow, my bet is that it's gonna be hard if you choose not to, 'specially with a sleek, hot-headed, curvy gal such as yours truly. ;P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I tried to make it that way. :P
 * Hot-headed? Definitely.  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * "I never seem to escape your insults" - or in this case, lame jabs. C'mon - you can do better.
 * So the other details are...not definitely? I can understand why, since you have never seen me...but WP:AGF and WP:AAGF. ;) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:44, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

(ouy) lol! No, I'm pre-occupied with portals right now that no one pays attention to. For example: 17 days and a month. -_-  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:48, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oy or should I mock you and say "ouy"?, a pain, I know. I once reverted some vandalism on "Chopin" (I think; this was a while ago) that had been there for two months. Very sad, indeed. Especially when I feel like the rest at WP:CM really don't take me seriously. -_-
 * Good luck with those portals - and good night. Let the bed bugs bite, and when it itches, think of me. ;) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:51, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah...
 * Thanks, but I think that I am done...I hate lonely tasks... :/  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:53, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * But like my dad says, a one-man band has control over all the instruments. ;)
 * Really bai now. So...uh, yeah, bai. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:54, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Bah - writing articles is so much more fun... :D I really should dtart on my to-do list, but w/e lol...
 * Kk. Night!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:56, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * ... wow ... You are sooo pathetic. :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 07:28, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * But it made you lawl, did it not? :P
 * And I thought that you were the pathetic one, since... :} &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 20:04, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

TGF's Editor Review
Gosh, I must sound so desperate. Yet another message from me. But it's not like I miss you or anything. Yeah. So...yup. I'm fine where I am. Not missing you one bit. I'm such an idiot...

Anyhow (:P), the real purpose of this message is to tell you about User:TopGearFreak's Editor Review. She just asked me to tell you (or, perhaps, your kinky slavedriver) to drop a line and tell her what you think.

And Merry Christmas, too. In the place of a card, I've left you some little fairy music - hope you like it! :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 20:50, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, and...ROFLOL. Amazing. That's what you get for talkin' to me late at night. ;P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 21:06, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * LOL! Possibly... :P
 * Will do now.
 * Thanks! :D You too - and a Happy New Year!
 * Well, it did sound creepy, didn't it?  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:39, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Possibly? Possibly?
 * Thanks, on her behalf.
 * Just be glad I didn't send you "Jingle Bells." :}
 * Very much so. Niiiice. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:10, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Would you rather me say that you are an idiot? :P
 * No problem; was that alright? (it wasn't much...)
 * Ok, I'm glad. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:26, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Depends. Do we get to...reconcile? :P
 * Pretty good - I'd rather you do that then start rambling and repeat what we already know. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:27, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Not until you drop down and do me ten. I have a sick mind sometimes...
 * Kk. Thanks! :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * What, with you watching, so you can stare with your eyes glued onto all the sick places? "Sometimes"? &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:32, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, it's pretty obvious that either your internet died or your mom caught you. So, good night then - whenever you read this. :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 06:13, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ya, the internet died. Sorry! :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 16:10, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No prob - I have a laptop, too, but I almost never use it. Wireless is too unpredictable for me to surf teh internetz. :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 00:20, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) Yes, I hate it. At school, I've got a nice little cord to connect this beastie to the internet...here, just a level one-strength internet connection. -_-  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 01:29, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Really? Then I will. ;D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 01:52, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You would. :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:04, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I did. ;D And I did it again. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * That is what she said.  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:16, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, yes, and you did it too, and liked it. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:19, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Your mom liked it. ;P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:22, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * She's lost the drive a long time ago. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:28, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you sure? It sure didn't seem like that... :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I would be loath to see the day you find a liking towards saggy body parts and gray hair... Actually, mom's pretty young-lookin' - Dad gets worried sometimes when she goes out alone. :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:35, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

←Seriously, I've had an email chat with Tom and he thinks that you would be an excellent admin, so just keep doing what you're doing and in the mean-time start reading about RfA. Your time to gain the mop and bucket will come sooner than you think. -MBK004 02:38, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * (@ Pianista) LOL!
 * (@ MBK) Maybe. Just maybe. I would be one of those "net-positive" candidates - I wouldn't do too much with the tools, I think. (Am I a recent changes patroller? No. Do I hunt for vandalism purposely? No. (I keep an eye on my watchlist lol)) We'll see. Someone reputable would have to come here and want to nom me too - I don't really want to go seeking for the one thing that might be worse than FAC! :D :D :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:44, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I could say the same myself. Trekphiler, Blooded Edge, Troy 07, and several IPs offered something like that (and so have you, you naughty little boy :D ), but I'm just not up to it yet. :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:52, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ed, don't worry, that is almost the same situation that Tom was in before his, he only had a few more FAs. You might want to try your hand at new page or recent changes patrol as well as hanging out at XfD, but the reputable part would be well taken care of by co-noms from two admins and a member of ArbCom, wouldn't it, especially if all three were MILHIST coordinators? -MBK004 02:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that was funny, I think. &mdash;  La Pianista (I think)  (I think,•therefore,•I am.) 02:59, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * (e/c)(@ Pianista) Your choice. :P
 * (@ MBK) Wait, what? Is there some conspiracy going on here? Tom (who would come back just for that), you and Roger? Wow, I feel.....special. Especially becuase I hold all three of you in such high regard...wow.
 * Well, every once in awhile I hit recent changes, but it's not often. I tried CSD tagging a few days ago (maybe a week?) and I'm not doing that again. Too easy to screw up, and its just not fun to me...
 * FAs are coming...Lexington-class battlecruiser after the A-class review, USS Connecticut (BB-18) when I finish it (at least it's something for the Great White Fleet) and Alaska-class battlecruiser...sometime.
 * (@ Pianista) Teasing is not needed. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:02, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I know... but doing irrelevant things is so much more fun than when they are useful. :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:04, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Tom is coming back regardless (for the Iowa class Featured Topic), but I'm sworn to secrecy about the actual time. Right now the conspiracy doesn't include Roger, but we are sure he would jump on if we asked. -MBK004 03:06, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Duh. I knew that. :/
 * Well, thank you very much. You don't know how much it means to me to know that you guys think highly of me...like I said above (sort of), you three are pretty much the ones that I look up to here...
 * (I look down on Pianista. :P)
 * BTW, if you need help on the FT, just ring me. Right now, I'm trying to stay a little bit away so that I can review the crap outta them. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Impossible. How can you look down on me when I look down on you simultaneously? :P (Actually, I accept it - I'm not really serious in anything I do here... -_- And don't you try to comfort me. Get that, sonny boy? :) ) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:27, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) I wasn't serious, you know. I think of you as a best friend, so I can't look down on you! I just look up to them becuase, well, Tom and MBK do exactly what I do, except...well, they are better at it. :) I mean, have you seen some of their articles?!? And Roger is Roger. :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I knew that - just had to bother you. That's what best friends do. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:36, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I noticed. :)
 * Heh - listening to "Paint it Black" right now...I love this song!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:41, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I haven't heard that one in years! That was before I started listening to classical - before then, I was an oldies nerd.
 * I might have to go now, though - Internet's acting up and I'm going to spend some time with family. :) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Kk. Have fun! :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:51, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You too! (Wherever you are) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:49, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

←You'll think I'm even more awesome when you learn that my watchlist is 7,844 pages as of when I'm writing this. Also, take a look at the monstrosity that I've been working with as of the past few days: List of R-7 launches, it is 149,949 bytes as of now and will be split soon. -MBK004 06:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that even Ed has only like 500...
 * Yeah, that is a bit on the lengthy side. A bit. I bet that you are glad that you have help. ;)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 07:30, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The watchlist can get big in a hurry, but some of the things I watch came about via an admin tool (Special:Unwatchedpages) that allows us to see those pages which are not watched by anybody. As for the help, yes I am glad. I've blown my edit count out of the water with regards to the amount of work I put into USS Texas (BB-35) which was my highest-count article. Now I have to take each of those decades to FLC and FT. -MBK004 07:51, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * "Blown your edit count out of the water" - not as much as I have. Your edit counter says that you've got 87 for the R-7 list and 63 for Texas. My edit counter says that I've got 591 for Nevada, 221 for The Sword of Shannara, 205 for Alaska-class battlecruiser, and 126 for Lexington-class battlecruiser (then another 47 from my Allanon account, making 173!). Ha, I win! :D :D :D Back to serious now though. I have 11510 total edits (as Ed), but 1017 of those were to just three pages?!? Wow...lol. Wouldn't change it for the world though; I'm having fun. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 17:09, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Iowa class
Thanks for that. I already own it! While it is quite short, most of the info is on-point and it is well worth the purchase price just for the artwork. There is a small part dedicated to the Alaska class as well, so I would recommend you obtaining it as well. -MBK004 05:56, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I tried. ...and yes, that is what I was thinking. ;) I'm pretty sure that I could get Alaska-class battlecruiser to FA easily with that, and USS Hawaii (CB-3) could be close. We'll see - I may just use that Google Books preview instead. But you are completely right...that artwork looks simply amazing, especially the cover artwork.  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:07, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Did you know that that cover is actually based off of a real photo? All four Iowas operated together for only one day off of Hampton Roads on 7 June 1954: File:All Four Iowas.jpg -MBK'004 06:15, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * O! I've seen that photo before (probably while reading Iowa-class battleship lol)! Only once though? I mean, I understand why they didn't operate together during WWII - they had separate missions to do - but not after the war for publicity purposes or something? Hm. Would have thought that it was more! :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:28, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yep, just once, it partially had to do with the fact that they were laid-up on both coasts and all four were only active for the years of 1944-48, 1951-55, and 1988-90, coupled with their schedule of deployments and yard overhauls, it is actually amazing that they were able to be together at all. -MBK004 06:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes, that would make sense... :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 07:30, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

*dripping with fish scales*
I guess I walked right into that one. :) –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 17:21, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yep. ;)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 18:29, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas, express from teh grinch.
 Hello Eddie! I just wanted to wish you and your family a merry Christmas - may the season be full of great cheer and holiday spirit! &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:31, 25 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Merry Christmas to you too. :) I hope that you have oodles of fun on your vacation, but remember to be safe driving, ok? Cheers friend,  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 02:56, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Eh? And what are you going to do if I'm not safe? Huh? Punk? :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:23, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Lol, nothing obviously. But nonetheless, be careful. I know that you are crazy, but tone it down and make it home safe. :D :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:37, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * What?! Okay, just cause you asked, I'm gonna go iceberg diving in the Arctic. :P
 * *sigh* If you say so, honeybunches... >.> &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 03:40, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * O_O "Iceburg diving"...?
 * Aw, thanks punkin! :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:49, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * If push comes to shove, yes. Or, if that isn't "unsafe" enough, I could go on a caravan in the Sahara with one half-full canteen and no sunscreen.
 * What'd you say, my sweetest little hickie-necked wuvely cutsie baby-kins? :P  &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:14, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You are a dork. :)
 * Did you see the new message on my (Ed's) talk page? :O I am SO EXCITED!!!! I sound like an 8-year old, but you get the point.  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:29, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you.
 * I know! I saw it and was like, "Ed is going to love this. Ed is going to love this." High-res...nice. I sound like a four-eyed, wiry, acne-infested nerd, but you get the point. (and sorry if you're any of those. :D ) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:31, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You were never sorry for me... Sorry if this is bothering you. I'm feeling...grinchy today. :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:47, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Hold on 10 seconds please. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:59, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * OK. *Pianista sits patiently in her chair, and sets the timer to precisely ten seconds. She pauses. "Nah," says she, "I'll be nice. I'll give him eleven." She fiddles with timer for a few moments, then reclines and waits patiently. 11...10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...* &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:05, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry. :)
 * Go look at my Myspace for the answer. Dork. :P
 * Oh, but you are different...on so many levels.... :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:12, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Why? I've forgotten already... Really, I have.
 * Lost the link. -_-
 * Different...from what? Being nice? I'm hurt... not. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:14, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) For not replying right away. Search Google. :) I'm not sorry becuase you are so different from him... ;>  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:26, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooh, I iz going to kilz u nao.
 * Nothing. -_-
 * Ah, and opposites attract, if I catch your meaning. Which is why the cool water douses the passionate fire, yet sparks the electricity... &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:32, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Found! Yay me...though that does kinda kill the kind of suspense I was left in... What, that's his face? Gosh, I thought he was better-looking... Seriously, my ex-bf can pwn that... :P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:48, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Lol, a girl from Texas is trying to woo me... :P
 * Yeah. Now reciprocate. :D :D :D Just kidding :) And I already know that I am not good-looking&mdash;no need to rub it in. :D :D :D, though I'm really not. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:01, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Lol, a guy from Michigan has been trying to woo me... :P :P :P
 * "I'm not good-looking"? Crud, and you know that's just the way to make me try to convince you otherwise...dork. But I've got enough stomachache from eating unripe fruit in the morning, so don't make me. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 16:20, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * But, really, in case that was hurtful (Xmas season here), you look...nice. And I'm...being nice. ;) &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 02:05, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Guess who read that and forgot to reply earlier... =/
 * O, w/e - you wish I was wooing you! :P
 * Eh, why lie, even if you think that it will convince you otherwise? :)
 * Unripe fruit? Ick...
 * Nope...but Liar, liar, pants on fire... :D :D :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 03:58, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * *dumb face* Who? :P
 * Actually...no.
 * Because I said so, and because you secretly like me. I knew it. *epic raspberry* :P
 * Ja - Mom experimented with a fruit salad to take to Christmas dinner, and I was the guinea pig. >.>
 * My pants on fire? ...Ew. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:03, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh c'mon...what girl wouldn't want some random guy on the internet wooing her? :D :P
 * We've been over this before: come up here and visit for a couple o' months; then maybe I will know if I like you. Only then. Darn honesty...
 * ROFLOL my guess is that the salad was not taken to the dinner.... :D :D :D
 * You heard that saying before, right...? (Even if it was in 1st grade?)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:12, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Uh, me.
 * Never going to happen, no matter how much you beg of me (:D). Very happy with my store of wooers here. :D
 * It was meant to be taken out, but Mom "forgot" and left it in the fridge. Yay...
 * Of course I did. Way back when...well, when. I think I was six when I heard it (and used it), and there was something about "ants in pants" or summat-or-other. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:16, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * And just to give you an edit conflict... (*smooch* Merry Christmas! :P)
 * Is this hilarious or is this hilarious? &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:24, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * (e/c) Lol I know...just teasing.
 * Including that crappy guy piano player staker dude? :P
 * "Yay"? LOL!
 * Kk, just checking...freaked me out for a second..."man, is Texas a separate country or something?!?" :)
 * Oh wow lol...was there a guy cut at the .340 mark that was still alive?!? :D :D :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:30, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sadly, yes. But he doesn't stalk - I kinda wished he did, though, so I could report him to the cops. :D
 * Yes - she couldn't find any pineapples in the season so they were canned. Don't make me start on the grapefruits...
 * Well, we were. And we still are, in a way. One of my cousins got a rifle for Christmas, Grandpaw got an at-home beer maker, and all my cousins and me got homemade rumballs and "moon pies." Fyi, each of those rumballs has a quarter-bottle of rum. :D
 * Maybe that counted as an extra limb or something... &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:37, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

(out)Sad face... :( lol! Well duh, I already know that you were a separate country. :D :D :D Why do I not want to know what those moonpies are...? Something to do with moonshining? Yeah, the four-armed dude who now counts as 1.340 of a person...LOL Anyway, on to serious things. In the Alaska-class battlecruiser article, should I move it back to "Alaska class cruiser"? I'm starting to think so because "cruiser" is ambiguous...it could point to "battlecruiser" or "large cruiser". Unfortunately, I can't decide, but I'd like to get it resolved before its upcoming FAC... Speaking of FAC...would you like to go on a c/e'ing crusade of that article before I take it to FAC (hey, more mainspace edits, right? =])? If you want, you can attempt to hunt down the ugly-looking Alaskas and reword them... ;) I'm next to finished with the article, so you can start anytime (assuming that you will want to c/e it :))  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 04:46, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sad? Yes, u haz competition. Don't tell him (like you could, anyways) but he does look "nice." Total bum, though - and he sux at piano big time. But he doesn't see it - which really sux.
 * Unfortunately, my Irish ancestors moonshined for a living. So could be - I haven't had some yet. :D
 * I have no idea. MILHIST isn't exactly my specialty. You could ask MBK or some of the others. :)
 * Okay - whenever I get back from the trip. We don't even know if/when we're leaving; the flights are all booked. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 04:52, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * O, poor Pianista.... :)
 * Irish? Didn't know that...
 * No, I want an opinion from someone who doesn't know anything about MILHIST. :P What would make more common sense? I don't want to be seen as pushing the POV of "oh, they were battlecruisers"...and its not like they were called battlecrusiers while they were in service...
 * Kk. Thanks! Yeah, I heard that a lot of planes are completely full because they cut flights by like 9%... deeling dorry for ya over here...  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:00, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Come now. I'm 100% Irish. And ping - you have mail. :)
 * Hm. Then, if accuracy is considered, I think "cruiser" would be better. If I'm not mistaken, they didn't call them "battlecruisers" in the day, did they? &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:12, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * That should teach me not to assume things when I see a last name like ******... :)
 * Checking now..
 * Alright. I'll get an admin (probably MBK) to move it back tommorow or on the 27th. Thanks!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:15, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * LOL k, not replying. :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:16, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Good - thanks. :D :D :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:17, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, nighty-night now, sugar. :P Sleeeepy now. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:19, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * (e/c) No problemo! Have fun on your trip - I'll try not to get too depressed while you are gone. :)  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:22, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * And before I go: Thanks for the "censorship."
 * But you know that resistance is futile. You will miss me, and you will miss me very...very...much. :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:25, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:25, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I try.
 * Yeah, unfortunately, I know. :)
 * Cute double sig. :P  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:26, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Did somebody request help from an admin? –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 05:27, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

(outdent) Was that face necessary? You know, I may be simply amazing (D), but I can't move that page back on my own without going through an RfA... :) You know, you must love having my talk pages on your watchlist...one must always be near the top. :D  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:31, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * One can never accumulate too many faces... –Juliancolton Happy Holidays 05:36, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, how many do you have? 46,947,586.6 billion?  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:39, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * About as many of those as I have comebacks up my sleeve and you have moments of lewd innuendo. Ka-POW! :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 17:29, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Speedy
Hi, I am just wondering if the author really did request for it to be deleted? I was supposed to delete them but having checked the history, its another author (you) who requested deletion under WP:CSD G7. Thank you. --Efe (talk) 08:55, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Same editor, alternate account (see Allanon's user page for an explanation as to my I'm using this one.) Sorry for not saying this in the edit summary! =/  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 16:36, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Its fine. They have been deleted already. --Efe (talk) 07:36, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Before I go...
Thought this would be a nice parting gift - major LOLs here ("Wikipedia butt," "I cam young stag," wut?). See, I set it to try to translate English into English via French...if that makes any sense.

Anyhow, cry for me while I'm gone. Every tear will be nourishment for my crooked soul. ;P &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:32, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * "It" Pianista? :D Have fun on your trip!  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 05:56, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Cancelled. :D
 * But I had no hand in it though. Not like I celebrated. Not like I missed the wiki and getting harassed by Grawp. Yeah. Not that I really felt like I had to come back or missed Icy, Chamal, or you. *facepalm*
 * :D Actually, it was the weather and my sinuses. All better now. &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 19:08, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Aw, the poor Eddie is dejected (stalked your contribs, dork). He doesn't even edit while thinks I'm gone. The wiki is bleak, lonely, desperately lonely without me...and you know it. :D &mdash;  La Pianista  (T•C•S) 05:46, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, no. :P One lonnng, terrible day at work... But I'm now on on the wiki, so happiness and peace now reign supreme. :)
 * Dude, I'm going to be very, very sad if/when Chamal leaves... :(  Allanon  ♠The Dark Druid♠ 06:43, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
