12:22 am

heheh. i keep seeing the almost words, and trying them over and over again just in case :P (definition of insanity, anyone?)

12:22 am

128 words looked like a nice size, but....

12:22 am

12:45 am

lol, not me hugs!

12:46 am

I need one more 7 too...

12:46 am

12:47 am

12:47 am

no wonder i only have 34 words. hehe

12:47 am

I have ap, co, cu, he, and ta....

12:47 am

either that, or it's almost 2 a.m. and i'm tired

12:48 am

1:01 am

congrats DrB

1:01 am

Is there supposed to be another season after this, do you know?

1:02 am

They just signed a deal: 48 episodes over 3 seasons, 16 straight episodes each year

1:02 am

Hallleluah!

1:02 am

so cast and crew get most of the year off

1:02 am

and Yipee!

1:04 am

Now i think they are in a ring of Hell...

1:05 am

I am not ready to make a guess yet

1:06 am

cautiously guessing myself....

1:06 am

go check out the site for the Hanso Foundation

1:06 am

http://www.thehansofoundation.org/

1:07 am

chic, I think I am in a ring of Hell often too ;)

1:07 am

That hasn't come into play yet and it could be key

1:07 am

hi sprite

1:07 am

hi MVA

1:08 am

darn, I don't like being so close to coitus and not able to get it...

1:08 am

night helen, sleep well *hug*

1:13 am

See ya helen!

1:14 am

Ok Dr B that Hanso site is beyond weird. what's that a clue to?

1:14 am

see slopey, as Dr Spooner might have yawned

1:15 am

hi jilli

1:15 am

funny icon, jilli!

1:17 am

I thought so, sprite!

Sprite - check email, and if you need help - try Lickety Chat - for help

1:18 am

time for me to hit the hay... goodnight all

1:18 am

night hugs

1:18 am

Later, Hugs!

1:20 am

time for me to go too, have fun all, may be back later

1:23 am

thanks Lickety!

1:35 am

testing out the lickety wonders

1:38 am

Later, babblers!

1:38 am

bye chic

hi everyone

1:47 am

hi ann

hi sprite

how's the grid today?

1:47 am

interesting chat with Lickety, eh sprite?

1:48 am

absolutely, jilli

1:48 am

ann -- nice size but full of almost-words

1:48 am

this babble browser is a piece of genius

1:49 am

ooph, for a moment I thought piece was a word in the grid... it isn't

1:49 am

ann, it is a good grid, but not easy

1:50 am

I am totally in love with this Add Word or Chat window

I get the feeling that it's one of those little but tricky grids

1:50 am

Isn't it great?

1:51 am

it is so smart! Never thought one could write a script or whatever (noob talking) to make a box recognise a single word or a sentence entry

1:51 am

There are some like Inge and maybe Pink who haven't discovered it yet -- to me it's the shole point

1:51 am

Lickety is a marvel

1:52 am

I agree, both on the whole point and the marvel!

1:55 am

yay, greyed the bottom row :)

1:55 am

I need 3 more Twords to do that ;)

1:56 am

2 more now

1:57 am

lol, now I have this song in my head... For everything, t4, t4, t4, there is a season, t4, t4 t4....

1:57 am

do you have the neither war nor peace word?

1:58 am

I do now -- thanks -- bottom row grey here too :D

1:58 am

yay

1:58 am

(note: that was my first single word entry in the chat through the lickety browser :)

1:59 am

ah!

1:59 am

yay, you did it too :D

1:59 am

me too

1:59 am

ain't we got fun?

2:00 am

literally, jilli... I am sitting here with a big smile on my face

2:01 am

this is so intuitive, so perfectly working!

2:01 am

hiccup time and bedtime for me

2:01 am

ah, hiccup time shows me how the sentence is moved to the chat window of babble itself :D

2:01 am

night jilli, sweet dreams to you, sweet lady :)

2:02 am

have a GOOD day, dear sprite

2:02 am

will do! *hug*

2:03 am

Oh, I made the clues disappear but don't know how to get them back!

2:04 am

just drag the orange vertical bar back to the right

2:04 am

the one with the little black dots

2:05 am

oh yes -- didn't notice it was still there, duh -- now I'll stop playing and go to bed

2:05 am

night jilli!

2:08 am

*poof*

It's mothers day here on Sunday - anyone got any suggestions for a gift for my 65 year old mum?

2:16 am

a hug and a kiss, and some lovely chocolates?

Could work, I like to be original though. Maybe something for the gardening

2:17 am

if she loves gardening, you have lots to pick from :)

2:17 am

her favourite perfume and take her to her favourite restaurant maybe???

2:18 am

perhaps one of those handy little things one can sit on while gardening?

2:19 am

if she likes the theatre get her tickets for her and a friend

2:19 am

good morning afternoon evening everyone

2:19 am

hi loredana

2:19 am

or cook her a nice meal

2:19 am

hey sprite

2:21 am

or a package of bulbs, flower bulbs (pun not intended, grin)

2:21 am

put a family album together of all the momentous occassions, achievements, baby's being born, her life if she has the pictures

2:22 am

I told my kids I would be very happy with a great breakfast... which for me has to include smoked salmon on crackers... and NOT in bed please, just downstairs with the family :)

2:23 am

lickety I am using V8 all of those suggestions for mothers day sound great lickety, reading back gardening a beautiful flowering shrub she will plant watch iot flower and tell everyone my wonderful son that for me dahlea or boronia camelia azalea all smell wonderful with beautiful flowers she will adore

2:23 am

I like that suggestion too, loredana

2:24 am

hi loredana, im watching maury its an american talk show and maury set up boyfriends with attractive decoys in a limo with a hidden camera inside it. the girlfriends are being confronted with the evidence and the men are still lying. They'll do anything to protect us

2:33 am

*themselves

2:35 am

yea we have it here maury povich the times i have seen it its female with babies looking for the biological father some have many guys in before there is a match

2:37 am

its terrible how can a woman not know who the father of there child is. It says alot about the woman.

2:37 am

that she had unprotected sex

2:38 am

unprotected sex with more than one guy, yes

2:38 am

with a the footbal team

2:41 am

i dislike this grid today, i cant get my teeth into it

2:41 am

it is definitely neither easy nor smooth, pink

2:47 am

good grief any clue for au!!??

2:47 am

hello. your comments don't bode well

2:47 am

Hello Granny - a car?

2:47 am

hi lynx help!! :)

hi lynxxx

2:50 am

hey lynxxx! Not that bad, it is fun, just not easy

2:50 am

so already i'm not looking all around! thanx lynx

2:58 am

if it is any consolation, granny, it is one of the words I always have trouble spotting!

3:01 am

my problem seems to be that i forget to look for 2 different letter starts like the au in 2 places etc..makes me mad when i don't..

3:02 am

vowels are always harder, for some reason

3:03 am

i agree and i've come a long way in just the month i've been here playing!

3:03 am

wonderful! Glad you enjoy being here, it is nice to have you around.

3:04 am

only a month GrannyM! - it feels like you are part of the furniture already

3:04 am

was thinking just the same, lynxxx

3:05 am

i've "met" so many nice people across the pond i just can't believe it! but i'd like to shoot saphyre for getting me addicted to it!! :o)

3:05 am

thank u sprite

3:06 am

lol, I bet all she did was saying you should check it out once...

3:06 am

and lynx

3:07 am

yep she was here & we were looking for pool liners & she started playing...

3:08 am

hehehe.... and that was all it took

3:24 am

pfff finally finished the B

3:36 am

and fireworks

3:37 am

Yay for Sprite ! what a star

3:37 am

what really helped me find lots of words, was trying the endings to everything :)

3:37 am

any clues needed?

3:38 am

rne

3:38 am

yes, e seems quite popular tonite

3:38 am

oh boy wtg sprite!

3:39 am

I'm OK Sprite - just past halfway without list so will be OK

3:39 am

like the trolls sprite...what are the words!!!!!

3:39 am

morning all!

3:39 am

hi sugar

3:39 am

LOLLLLL granny!

3:39 am

good morning Sugar

3:40 am

congrats on finishing, sprite

3:40 am

i'm sure i'll go to list ASAP :(

3:40 am

thanks :)

3:40 am

morning sugar

3:40 am

I used a lot of A2Z on this one, lots of uncommon words

3:41 am

I like it (not) when they/trolls 'demand' an 8 (several times) and then 2 minutes later after finding it start forcing the word down everyones throat. grrrr

3:42 am

*heart sinks to boots - not fond of uncommon words*

3:42 am

Morning all!

3:42 am

we have a troll today?

3:42 am

truce

3:42 am

morning flask

3:43 am

sprite i just learned the word for "chinese black tea" & now i'm soooo smart :)

3:43 am

good morning to Flask too

3:43 am

tr to u 2 flask!

3:43 am

don't think so Sugar - the students come on soon though

3:43 am

hi sugar

3:44 am

lol....granny!

3:44 am

Thanks for that 'clue' Flask - didn't have that

3:45 am

first one i saw..downhill from there too

3:47 am

hi granny

3:52 am

lol granny, you ARE smart!

3:58 am

is there a popular ending today? I can't see it, in fact dried up at 40 just now!!

3:58 am

way ahead of me lizmac!

3:59 am

its e for me Liz

4:00 am

This is a toughie so far. No 6s or 7s & precious few 6s either!

4:00 am

*5s

4:00 am

there is the ic as ending

4:01 am

And before it Sprite.?...gimme a wurrrddd. LOL

4:01 am

and ba7 french for ship. A vampire animal + french for water.

4:01 am

lol liz!

4:02 am

Okay I'll look for one myself. TY Sprite...now I've got a 7.

4:03 am

ha5 something you do often and automatically, or something you wear as a nun. Co7 builds on this.

4:03 am

so now i need to learn french sprite

4:03 am

granny, water in french is very vowelly :)

4:04 am

Now, where's the X? Oh, fancy that, there isn't one!!

4:04 am

nah, that would make waters, liz, not water ;)

4:04 am

TY for ba Sprite - I get it as a 6 - to get to 7 I do what?

4:05 am

there is ic7 and 6, both compounds with a very cold start. Not a combo, they are unrelated.

4:05 am

Or Boats? N'est pas?

4:05 am

I am sorry, lynxxx, I mistyped there. It IS a 6. Not a 7.

4:05 am

lol liz... singular of that is valid...

4:06 am

one of the ph6 words makes an A7 as well

4:07 am

Just trying to be Madame Smarty Pants....back to what I do best..monkey typing LOL

4:07 am

omg i found it!

4:07 am

yay granny!

4:09 am

other compound 6s: tiny round green + chicken is one, and the thing we pour the famous english drink from is another. I always have trouble with compounds, no matter how common they are.

4:09 am

TY for the clues, they've given me a kick start.

4:10 am

yw :)

4:10 am

tx for the great clues, sprite!

4:11 am

E4 and ta5 are colours

4:13 am

BBL

4:14 am

laer liz

4:14 am

ta4/5, ta6/21 and ta7/36 are food, not related.

4:14 am

and with that I am off for today, have a great Thursday all of you and happy babbling!

4:14 am

6:18 am

Sorry sugar. I was trying to give you a clue but my browser is on a go slow again. Grrrrrrrrr

6:18 am

Not really, sometimes the accent dictates that the words come out that way. I think they're mostly used in literature that's in the Scots dialect.

Good morning, Haz. How are you today?

6:53 am

hello haz

6:54 am

hi haz

6:54 am

I'm well thanks.

6:54 am

Time for me to eat and then to sleep - bye everyone, have fun. Hi/bye to Haz as well

6:54 am

This looks like a grid for the creative thinker.

6:54 am

bye lynxxx

6:54 am

Until another day, lynxxx.

6:54 am

sleep well

6:54 am

Hello lynxxx - enjoy your meal and see you again.

6:55 am

yes haz....its a bender

6:55 am

Haz, it is a delightfully twisted grid! :-) I like these types of challenges, but not exactly burning up the road with it.

6:55 am

bye lynxxx and hello haz

6:55 am

It's one where each word is greeted with reverence.

6:56 am

Exactly! :-)

6:56 am

And gratitude.

6:56 am

And relief.

6:56 am

( and many times.. a fish )

6:57 am

LOL, kat.

6:58 am

( well....its the truth)

6:58 am

( almost got thrown in penalty box there *wiping brow* )

6:59 am

I thought the ph words would be really tough... but they monkeyed well... but Haz does not "monkey"... she "types creatively". LOL

7:00 am

why doesn't that surprise me????

7:00 am

LOL. It's Haz...

7:01 am

Yes, because I am not addicted to babble, I am mildly attached.

7:01 am

( so....crunchy desert ideas besides caramel corn or home made granola bars?)

7:01 am

What about an apple crumble with very crunchy nut/ brown sugar topping, kat?

7:02 am

( no nuts... allergies in neighbourhood :( )

7:02 am

There you go again, Haz. LOL... just as I am "mildly" aimed toward the computer terminal every morning...

7:03 am

( ok...mr's blair's "effective pause's " drive me a bit batty )

7:03 am

who're you kidding haz? you should try going cold turkey for 6 weeks like I did!!!

7:03 am

It's really not a problem. You do go to bed at nights, don't you?

7:03 am

while she mildly types away...

7:04 am

kat, if you mix in flour, butter, brown sugar and a tablespoon of clear corn syrup, it will crunch up in the overn. PM Blair has announced his pending retirement... Most of the time, Haz!

7:04 am

Mr Blair has always paused effectively and driven us mad.

7:04 am

I have resigned myself to the fact that I have an addictive personality........

7:04 am

Well, the big pause is coming soon...

7:04 am

true enough red... ..and true enough again red

7:05 am

And then we'll have Gordon Brown, who has a weird facial tic. His jaw drops open - it's as if he loses control of it.

7:05 am

Will the next PM be as pro-Bush as Blair?

7:05 am

won't do him/her anygood... bush will be gone in 18 months

7:06 am

18 months is a LOOOOONG time

7:06 am

oh lovely..a fly cather... woohoo..JUST what we need...

7:06 am

please help with cu7/36, someone?

7:06 am

I honestly don't think it makes any difference who is contorl in the White House or Downing Street. The special relationship is there.

7:07 am

Hey Nono - when are you going Pro Babble?

I'll lean towards "or something" :)

8:17 am

Good morning ...I've updated my icon to the theme of the day!

8:17 am

bbl going for a walk

8:17 am

doxy -- just saw your comment on my hot dogs. thanks. :)

8:18 am

nice, evan :-D

8:18 am

and another one bites the dust!!! FIREWORKS!!!

8:18 am

Fireworks

8:18 am

yeah...not sure really.... im a little taken aback, really. dated for 2 years, talking marriage. split up suddenly a year ago, didnt hear from him once until last night.

Inge2 - took me a while to work out what those pups where - First I thought it was some 5 armed creature

Yay Inge!!

and Angel!!

8:18 am

wtg inge. right behind you.

8:19 am

congrats inge and angelsong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

evandine- wow - that's a big one

8:19 am

ANd that's just how they act sometimes, lickety!

8:19 am

whooo hooo angel

8:19 am

Horray for inge! Well done!

Hmmm, maybe he's regretting a few things. You could just flat out ask him. I'm not one for beating around the bush as I near my third decade, lol.

8:19 am

iNGE 2, are you into breeding them?

8:20 am

no, but my sister had a male and female, and bred hers once.

lickety i hope to be able to go pro next month if nothing else pops up to take my money

8:20 am

well, im not sure i want to have any contact with him. it took me a while to get over everything that happened. now ive moved on + im with someone new. i certainly have no interest in rehashing things, but i dont think i even want to have contact with him.

8:20 am

FIREWORKS at last!!!! thanx lickerty and all who gave me great clues.

8:20 am

I prefer to get rescue dogs, but these were a gift, and we love them dearly.

8:21 am

YAY rmcc!!!!!!!!!!!!

8:21 am

If you're happy as you are, evan, then why bother with him?

Ok Nono - good one. I just want to make sure that those using BB are Pro.

Yeah...I'm really not one to listen to when it comes to things like that. I re-married my ex-husband.

8:21 am

our NIka has turned into a rather old lady, a new addition now would drive her batty. Besides Nika has ruined our sofa, and hubby wont let me get another till dog is gone!

8:22 am

apparently hes now "6 months cancer-free" cancer is news to me, so i have a feeling that might have had to do with our splitting up.

evandine - $$$$ - Bombshell - so much for your heart

8:22 am

hah, bunny -- my current BF is an ex from college. :)

8:22 am

she's beautiful, though, Inge. what a doll.

8:23 am

getting dressed to go shopping. BBL

evandine - sorry I should use ####

8:23 am

Later, inge. Congratulations to Angelsong on finishing!

8:23 am

bye, Inge. Evan...that complicates things a bit I

8:23 am

bbl, late for work. Good luck, evanadine

8:23 am

mmmm evan keep the break clean. maybe the mention of the big C could be a sympathy line.

Stephen is my highschool sweetheart, father of all five kiddos. Was meant to be, just took a lot of stalking and such.

8:24 am

he also mentioned that after we split up, he went on like 3 dates with a girl who used to be one of my best friends. (our friendship fell apart before he + i split up) he also mentioned that before things ended, he had bought me a ring. which is weird, since the reason we broke up was that after 2 years together, he had an "epiphany" that he never wanted to get married or have kids.

8:25 am

hey everyone :) -- evan, sounds like he was looking for a way out

I agree though, if that were the reason, he should have laid it on the table from the get go. If your happy with who you're with, jsut close the door on that chapter. Sounds like he can't keep his stories straight anyhow.

8:26 am

time to go, enjoy the grid everyone - bye

I have free kittens in 5 weeks by the way, anyone in throwing distance :)

Bye Sugar

Would have been better if the cat hadn't given me a look like, "I told you so"...first time he's woken up today and he gives me a look like that :)

10:13 am

5 to go. Going to get another cuppa first.

10:13 am

You ok Nancy?

10:13 am

Haz - I have shopping to put away.

10:13 am

10:14 am

Well, Jacula, I hope you enjoy it......

10:14 am

Trying to go "drug-free" today. Dern allergies & sinuses!

10:14 am

Con - it's a plus the speed at which something is done.

10:15 am

phast? %-)

10:15 am

Haz ... and there was me imagining you leaping up to volunteer to help. *grins*

10:15 am

Jacula - I sewed yesterday.

10:15 am

Ugh, good luck - personally I'm allergic to strawberries, which is some kind of torture >.>

10:15 am

I also have a grave to dig (see my bio for reason) but it won't stop raining.

10:15 am

Haz - You SEWED? *faints clean away*

10:16 am

me too nancy....

10:16 am

so sad! I've never done an allergy test, but apparently I'm allergic to most of Tennessee. ugh. NEVER had problems like this til I movd here!

10:16 am

Oh Jacula, that must be upsetting :( I'm sorry

10:16 am

oh..red... I just got an ozark recipe book...talk about "interesting"

10:16 am

Even I couldn't take a pair of trousers with a slightly ripped hem to the menders. So I plucked up courage, and the glasses, and did it myself. It was a trial but I got through it.

ok, vowel words are not my forte, et 5/12?

10:17 am

Thanks Nancy Boy. It's the 3rd pet to die of old age recenty.:-(

10:17 am

lol, Red : D I'm just waiting to be told I'm allergic to water, or something. Carlee, we'll struggle together. I don't know about you but I still eat them...:/

10:17 am

Bravo, Haz!

10:17 am

10:18 am

i guess that was the only word i didn't try. thank you haz!

10:18 am

thanks haz!

10:18 am

Thank you Jacula - my sewing teacher wouldn't be proud, but the job is done.

10:18 am

I don't think anyone realizes how much they'll miss a pet until it goes, really...the cat and I have a love-hate relationship [and the love bit's only because I feed it], but I can't imagine it without the furry fool..

10:18 am

That's all that matters, Haz.

10:18 am

*hugs Jacula* sooooo sorry!

10:18 am

i know that feeling...

10:18 am

my condolences, Jacula.. so sorry about Bernie. :-(

10:18 am

Thanks, red. NancyB - I'm still missing my old cat, too.

10:19 am

I lived with a family and their cat slept with me every night... she's about the only cat ever I'm not terribly allergic to! I wanted to take her with me when I moved. They would have let me, too, but I couldn't have her in my new place.

10:19 am

Taking quick break - if the dishwasher is unloaded, it proves I haven't been sitting here all afternoon....

10:19 am

may they all rest in peace jacula.

10:20 am

10:20 am

Aloy - I suppose it's inevitable when they're all getting on. This year so far we've had 2 rabbits die (but at 8-years' of age), one guinea pig (who was only 2) and one of the cats (who was about 15).

10:20 am

later Haz

10:20 am

I generally ask for subtitles when watching British movies. =)

10:54 am

10:54 am

LOL, Red! Luckily school has made me fluent in both languages. However, the prospect of sitting on a "bum" still seems kinda cruel : D

10:55 am

I have to put subtitlles on when ER's on, but that's because they shout things so fast.

10:55 am

10:56 am

is that the body part you wanted to know, con?

10:56 am

but but (heheh butt butt.....) there's no 'he' in bum!

2:36 pm

hi haz... and thank you for the pa clue.. I was out at garden centre with mum when it donned on me... came home... entered and got my fireworks

2:36 pm

I'm glad light finally dawned, carlee. It's funny how your brain sometimes refuses to process information and then - bang!

2:37 pm

( well..its hard when i don't HAVE one... but when one was staring me in the face... )

2:38 pm

But wait for the day when you're staring at someone you've known for years and their name completely escapes you!

2:38 pm

hi, all. Am a newbie on here - could I ask a q?

2:38 pm

It's really embarrassing when it's your husband.

2:38 pm

happens to me every week with my students

2:38 pm

shoot fire

2:38 pm

( am so glad am no longer the newbie around here...always makes me giggle )

2:39 pm

OK - when people say, "flip", does it just mean that the puzzle has changed ... or more than that?

ask away firefox

I'm never around for the flip so I'd be interested to hear the answer to that too

2:40 pm

never heard of "flip"

2:40 pm

It just means that the puzzle has changed. People compete to see who can say flip first.

2:40 pm

wondered if it meant, "the puzzle's changed and I've got the first word" or summat

2:40 pm

ahh, thanks, Haz :)

been on at a flip over and everyone tries to be first saying flip it seems

2:41 pm

i'm tucked away in my bed at 1 am my time..thanks haz....again...

flip

there I win today

2:41 pm

You could really annoy people if you 'flipped' continually for the last five minutes of the previous puzzle.

yes I can see that

2:42 pm

thanks, garyandjulie

it's 6 am my time, long time ago my little one went through a phase of not sleeping and I was up alot around that time

2:42 pm

(Please don't let anyone read that and think it's a good idea)

2:42 pm

ok..one night am just going to stay up JUST so I can witness this ( man..I lead a sad life )

sheesh we're a sad lot

2:43 pm

I like your icon, carleekat. I lead a sad life too and didn't know what ta**** was! :)

2:44 pm

ah....important ingredient for humous...speaking of which..i haven't made any humous in a long time....maybe this evening...

also a few minutes before they guess how many words there will be after the flip

2:45 pm

well I am guessing now..tomorrows will be in the 200 ish range

2:45 pm

128 took me long enough today!

I'm getting nowhere with this one today

2:46 pm

Yes, but today's was slightly more difficult than usual in that a lot of the words aren't conventional.

down to 41 left, feels like pulling teeth

2:46 pm

help with the right hand C?

I doubt if I'll get chance to play for a few days after today so they can be as big and hard as they want

Hey everyone, I've got a Wedding to go to today, so clues page will be a little late (maybe 6 hours late) to update. If you are running BabbleBrowser - it'll still word, but if you use the Lickety Add, you won't get the right colours until Clues are update. You could use the normal add if you are worried about it, and when clues are up - move the words over with the 'Send Words to Clues' button.

6:57 pm

*sigh* I was afraid of that.. thanks

6:57 pm

Hunter cat (Tiggsey was a pain earlier. First off, he was out in the pouring rain, then he was still out in it trying to see off the intact Tom that looks like him, after he'd seen him off the premises he caught a mouse (a little hoppy one, like a miniature gerbil) on the way back home, yowled to come in, brought still live mouse in with him, dropped it, caught it again, got booted out, ate it under 'Fred The Fir Tree' (don't ask, re the tree name! LOL) and then demanded to be let in again and dried off. He's now in bed in the utility room, in his tiger-striped igloo at4/5 the little chest freezer.

8:34 pm

gt - it was only a few weeks ago when I said I was leaving Babblechat to catch up on some of my SKY+ recorded programmes and named them, and Haz commented about all the murders etc., that I realised how macabre I must be!

8:34 pm

you and me both, Jac

understand that

8:34 pm

In truth... it' not only the science that interests me but, in a 'Cracker' type way... the motives.

8:35 pm

bo5/16 anyone?

cold case files are my favorite, they can catch people now with all the forensic sciences

8:35 pm

I love all of them, except for CSI Miami. David Caruso gives me indigestion

8:36 pm

I was pretty p**d off when Fred West topped himself before anyone could question him properly about why he became a serial killer and how it also roped his wife in on it.

8:56 pm

Big eyes are inherent in babies of all kinds - we are genetically programmed to be appealled/attracted by them. Glad I've still got big eyes. LOL.

8:57 pm

If 'big eyes' are part of the overall 'plan', then it must be true that 'the eyes are the window to the soul'?

8:59 pm

Matthew 6:22-23 (King James Version) King James Version (KJV) 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

8:59 pm

It's not wrong, is it?

9:00 pm

9:04 pm

9:04 pm

9:05 pm

You asked who Joseph Conrad was--he wrote Lord Jim and Heart of Darkness.

9:05 pm

9:06 pm

Oh, is Joseph Conrad the Langley chap? If so, didn't know that.

9:06 pm

9:06 pm

Teaching? No, I don't teach.

9:18 pm

9:32 pm

Not very good at poeting. If that is even a word. but... i can try! :)

9:33 pm

I like my new words. Very poetish wordish. :)

9:33 pm

Past decade or so, life has thrown too much crap at me to let me concentrate on my fiction work. I then tired with reading or writing poetry. I do have to say.. what the hell was I going to say? B*gger, I've forgotten.

9:33 pm

i'm back

9:33 pm

lol teague!

9:34 pm

how did it go, feather?

9:34 pm

Hi feather!!!

9:34 pm

he was so pitiful, it wasn't even worth yelling at him

9:34 pm

:D I am cracking up REAL hard now! :D

9:34 pm

and i quote: "thank you. i love you. i'm an idiot."

9:35 pm

What hapenned feather? (sorry if spelled wrong)

9:35 pm

Oh, yes, I remember now... my best poetry came from the hart as a teenager and then when key members of my family were dying.

9:35 pm

Hi feather, that sounds intriguing.

9:35 pm

Wow. Must have been soulful jac

9:36 pm

When I'm happy I can only do Pam Ayres-type stuff (and that has also sold very well for me... thank you very much!)

9:36 pm

Jac, sorry about bunnykins.

9:36 pm

hubby was at home, got a ride with a visiting friend to the dealership where our car was being fixed, left his keys on the hood of his truck. i had to have my mom come over and baby sit while i took the keys to him. added bonus, he left his cell phone here, as he didn't think he'd need it.

9:37 pm

Ouch. Must have not been fun feather.

9:37 pm

what does she write, jac?

9:37 pm

Ha, feather! I once left my wallet on the top of my car at the plant nursery, it flew into the road and some passer-by stopped, picked up all my stuff and called the # inside.

9:37 pm
