herin..saw you mentioned Dawn of the Dead..old or new?

New. I have got a stack of scenarios that would have proven survival of the zombie apocalypse

My friends and i are silly

12:32 am

haven't seen the new, but loved the old..would like to see if the new zombies are as "camp" as the old ones..

All the zombies are fast as. There is a few stunt people that really are missing limbs like arms and legs and they made them into armless or legless zombies very cool

Oh and top of it the master of slash and gore Tom Servini is in it

12:36 am

down to 95 -- early tee time , so will say good night even though I'm still missing that oc 8!

this is ac5/12 season when the deer munch under the Garry oaks. Band-tailed pigeons also enjoy them and perch in the trees grabbing them. No wonder that species is rare!

1:56 am

I think the secret is in the heart and mind, Fran, not just in the air!

1:56 am

sprite, you should put the link to your picture in your profile for today.

1:57 am

i'm sure it is sprite! and i'm going to get all of jilli's secrets. :-)

1:57 am

possibly genes have something to do with it -- my son doesn't look his age (59) -- or act it, groan.

lol Jil

1:57 am

yes, sprite, I agree with fran -- and keep it there!

1:58 am

Hi gang. I see all the wonderful pictures this morning and I cannot put one up of me. I hate having my photograph taken.

2:23 am

yw flosey

2:23 am

lol, I am getting weird SMS messages... from a barman I had drinks with last night in a bar... and I was home last night, as usual, no bar in sight, grin.

2:23 am

as long as you explain that is not you in your current icon frances. :-)

2:24 am

lol sprite, do you have a secret life? :-)

2:24 am

that must have been when you were in the spa Sprite...

2:24 am

No Fran. It is a leftover icon from bad wedding dresses.

2:24 am

too bad, Frances, but I can understand. I don't like the dangerous end of a camera either. Still it would be great to see you... and I know we will see a beautiful woman if you would put a pic up.

2:24 am

It was fran who made the suggestion that I might be a CF

2:25 am

i remember when you put it up frances. :-)

2:25 am

You're too kind sprite - thank you.

2:25 am

Fran, it is SO secret that even I do not know about it :)

2:26 am

did you all here about the girl who got a recycled phone number that had once belonged to Paris Hilton? can you imagine the text messages and emails she got?

2:27 am

it sounds like a lot of work, but selling it to the glossies would have made her a fortune :)

2:27 am

oh wow, I got the oc8 all seffins

2:27 am

yay jilli! Care to share a clue for this slow witted lady overhere?

2:27 am

wtg jilli, i don't have it yet.

2:28 am

sprite, she thought it was funny until Paris went to jail and she was bombarded with messages.

2:28 am

yes jilli, please clue us.

2:29 am

wish it would happen to me, Fran. I'd really sell it to the glossies and secure myself enough income to stop working :D

2:29 am

*working on an oc8 clue*

2:30 am

oc8 a person of 1/8th black ancestry

2:31 am

thanks lynxxx!

2:31 am

oc + high ridge + full m***

2:31 am

i think i knew that word from reading Ann Rice.

2:31 am

good clue too jilli.

2:31 am

took too long tho

2:31 am

its a hard one to clue!

2:32 am

thx lynxxx and jilli

2:32 am

yw :)

2:33 am

wow, thanks, both of you. New word for me!

2:33 am

i'm guessing a few people won't know the definition. i'll keep your clue handy for tomorrow jilli. :-)

2:33 am

thanks jill, that's a weird one

2:33 am

I remember that word from the old romance novels I used to read about the old south

2:33 am

2:34 am

2:35 am

hi mel

2:35 am

Hello Lynxx

2:35 am

I almost said at the flip qu 8 to be mean but I could not bring myself to do it, LOL

2:35 am

i started to jilli, then realized there weren't any. :-)

2:36 am

ooh mel, that would have been funny.

2:36 am

hello Jilli

2:38 am

brb someone is out of bed, prolly elsie she likes to wander

2:41 am

I would have liked that, meliae :D Especially because we could have seen it was not possible, if we had been alert enough (not me!)

well, I am truly shocked by the movie "SICKO"... absolutely taken back!

2:42 am

do tell, mrp -- why

2:42 am

what is it about, mrP?

2:42 am

It's about the US medical system

2:43 am

oh, I have heard about that one! Seems to be shockingly close to the truth.

2:43 am

http://www.sicko-themovie.com/

2:43 am

official website there

2:44 am

I didn't go to see it when it was here because I pretty much knew what it was going to say -- but I heard it was VERY funny

I have watched half of it, and just am bewildered!! it is criminal how the US congress got that power... and it is not funny jilli, it is sad

2:45 am

side note: finally finally found those al6 and 7. Eeks!

2:45 am

I agree the system is sad

2:46 am

any hints forthcoming for those al's, sprite?

2:46 am

that bad sprite?

2:47 am

not that common words, but I am being thick too. AL + 1st 2 letters of making something fall down + not out. And plural.

2:47 am

do tell sprite

2:47 am

I think the al6 was one of the first US astronauts - but dont hold me to that

sorry jilli, not snapping at you, just shocked at the movie (hugs)

2:47 am

thank you sprite and lynxxx!

2:48 am

you're right lynxxx.

2:48 am

didn't think you were snapping, mrp luv!

2:48 am

thx lynxxx and sprite

2:48 am

ei 5/12 - ei + spanish word for the number two

here it is, refresh

3:44 am

She is attending to matters of state. The arrangement of the paws,

3:45 am

Would a fish with ideas above its station be a Cod of Destiny?

3:45 am

sooooooo funny!

3:45 am

oh, the Paws. Yes, they are of Great Importance

3:46 am

thx founder

3:46 am

Yes, also the patrolling of the garden lest unwelcome visitors (feline) show their face.

yw

3:47 am

mine is asleep and sprawled. paws everywhere

3:47 am

Morning all babblers

3:48 am

Good morning Zen, how are you?

mine is looking to scratch my skin off... I haven't fed her in months!

3:48 am

hi zen

3:49 am

I also haven't walked mine for months, by the look on her face

3:49 am

Doing well Haz - the news is we are going to get a cat!

3:49 am

Will this be a cat of glory, or just an ordinary cat?

oh zen, tell me you are getting a normal cat

3:51 am

I'm sure it will be a normal one

fireworks :)

3:51 am

Haz.....and a fish you could tell anything to would be the sole of discretion?

3:51 am

Well done Founder!

3:51 am

yay founder

3:51 am

It absolutely would, Frances. You are on the right wave-length.

thanks

3:51 am

well if it is male, I am going to cal it Oedipuss - so it might be a heroic cat...

3:52 am

Thought for a minute you said flounder Haz

3:52 am

Another day at the madhouse? Morning all :)

3:52 am

hi fmitch

morning fmitch!

3:52 am

Good morning FMitch. Zen is getting a cat. He will be a hero and wear underpants over his clothes.

3:52 am

Hello FMitch

3:53 am

The cat, I mean, not Zen.

3:53 am

as heroes do

3:53 am

superpuss!

3:53 am

What a great viual image! Hi Andre and Haz and Frances and MrP and Zen with our whithout undergarments. and Hi Ata.

3:54 am

Although I suppose if Zen wants to he could. He could watch out for me trailing a spaniel, I could watch out for matched cat and owner, underpants apparent.

3:54 am

I like Oedipuss

3:54 am

Hello Ata. Sorry, didn't see you.

3:54 am

good name zen

3:54 am

just dont let him near his mother again

3:54 am

It has a certain ring, Zen.

no underpants here...just tights and a cape

3:55 am

Shouldnt be too hard to spot Haz unless you get a lot of people wearing the pants on the outside round your way? It could explain a whole lot of things when I think about it.

3:55 am

Tights and cape - so understated.

3:55 am

Zen when puss is in a bad mood would it be so4/5puss

3:55 am

MrP you were always a floosey :)

oh, and earrings!

3:56 am

with 50000 swarovski crystals

3:56 am

I don't think his father will be looking forward to seeing him again either, Ata

yes, the cape would be lined with the crystals for sure!

3:57 am

when do you get said cat zen

3:57 am

will you have to take him to the Haz Family Vet Practice? Or are there multiple vets in Ballymena?

3:57 am

mrp will your cape do up or will you be bare chested?

oh, I gotta get my drawing pants on! I feel the need...

3:57 am

On a different subject for 2 seconds - I love ti when you get all your shopping dlivered to your kitchen by the supermarket, it's brill.

passing by - this topic reminds me of the killer rabbit in Monty Python

3:57 am

There's just the one in the town itself.

3:58 am

Hi lickety

3:58 am

Hello there lickety!

3:58 am

FMitch - for an added fee, do they put it away for you?

3:59 am

Unfortunately no but you can't have everything

3:59 am

It was worth a try.

3:59 am

Is there only one vet in town Haz ?

3:59 am

That reminds me of a badge I saw once it said "You can't have everything ... where would you put it?""

my super(market)man puts it away for me :)

4:00 am

Thatsbecuase all you are wearing is a cape and a smile!!

4:00 am

Zen - the Grove is the only one in the town, there's also one out at Galgorm village.

4:01 am

That would be your hubby in Galgorm, then ?

4:02 am

no wonder if you aren't wearing your knickers mrp

4:02 am

No - he's in the Grove - there are 7 vets there, it's a mixed practice. The one in Galgorm is only for small animals and it's a 2 person practice.

4:03 am

well then you must go to that one and ask for Mr Haz :)

4:04 am

Except that he only does some small animal surgeries, most of the time he's doing farm work. So much smellier....

4:04 am

smellier is good haz

4:05 am

smellier is fun

4:05 am

Ah, thanks Haz, good to know - though do I recall Mr Haz being very pricey; are there any discounts for babblers ?

4:05 am

lol, zen

4:05 am

3 free grid words with every consultation?

4:05 am

here it costs more to see the vet than the doctor

4:05 am

Oh, you could try it, Zen. Just say 'Is there a discount for me? I'm a babbler.'

4:05 am

yeah, you pay more to include the upkeep of Spangle

4:06 am

They'll treat you with sympathy, understanding and a very blank expression.

4:06 am

Babble is my little secret. The family knows about it, but they don't talk to others in case people think I'm peculiar.

ok, am back and dressed!

4:07 am

you can just whisper it to Mr Haz then

4:07 am

knickers too mrp

4:07 am

Yes, it might be worth it to see the blank expression

oh yeah!

4:07 am

You're looking splendid, mrpresident!

4:07 am

ha ha my family are the same

wait till you see me with my fur shaved off! I am hiding a dirty secret!

4:08 am

A diamante housecoat and gold lame slippers is a little over the top though.

4:08 am

Oh, I'll just whisper then when i see Mr Haz

4:08 am

Fmitch, Lickety is at home, she's got to make an effort!

oh those slippers are not lame! My dad got them for me in Hungary!

4:09 am

In which case I would revert back to the cape and a smile.

4:09 am

or lose the cape

4:09 am

I'm sure Mr Haz has good prices anyway. Or higher prices than the competition based on his brilliance

4:10 am

Hello to Andree, Ata, FMitch, btw

He is the only one who knows my true identity! comfort is a virtue too

4:10 am

Mr Haz gets frustrated when people waltz in with pedigree dogs (expensive), then declare they are out of work, on benefits, and is there discount for vaccinations.

4:10 am

Well he is the husband of Mrs Haz afterall, obviously has good taste too.

4:10 am

urf I bet. having just paid £600 for a poodle

4:11 am

Who paid £600 for a poodle?

that is a shitload for a poodle!

4:11 am

Does it come with fries and a salad?

4:11 am

or whatever. how much do poodles cost?

LOL fmitch!

4:12 am

£600 on a cocker spaniel then! Thats possible, if expensive!

4:12 am

For one dreadful minute I thought YOU had bought a poodle, Atalante.

fmitch, you made my arm hurt from laughing too hard

4:12 am

NOOOOOOOOOO!

4:13 am

I am sooooo sorry, I will be silent so as not to hurt you dear ;)

4:13 am

I don't think they are £600, except maybe for one of the giant ones. They look so strange, like a mad scientist has got hold of a small one and done something unspeakable.

4:13 am

A free mongrel - much better

4:14 am

Well, it depends, you don't always know where a mongrel has been or what hang-ups they may have.

it scares me that you said 'fries', not chips!! who are you and what have you done with fmitch!!

4:15 am

Are poodles good swimmers?

4:15 am

Could you rent one on a temporary basis, Atalante, to show Hobbit the way to enjoy water-sports?

4:15 am

hi all morning Katie W you there

4:16 am

They've been used in circuses (poodles) so they can learn tricks. Water-skiing shouldn't be a problem to them.

4:16 am

Help, I am being taken over by the pod people....... too late.

4:16 am

*faints* just looked up toy poodles. from £400-600!

4:16 am

Aren't mongrels stronger and healthier than pure-breds, though?

toy poodles?? what the hell is that!

4:16 am

One here for £895!!!!

4:16 am

So if a toy poodle costs that much then a real, living breathing giant one may cost millions?

4:16 am

yeah really!

4:16 am

Zen - that's what mongrel owners will tell you.

4:17 am

Zen I would give a rescue dog a home every time even though I would like a pedigree.

mongrels are scary

4:17 am

there are negatives and positives to both mongrels and pedigrees

4:17 am

at the pet shop pedigree dogs start at about au$1400

4:17 am

toy poodles are the shitty little yappy ones

4:18 am

Genetically, mongrels make sense

4:18 am

and then there is the CoG, a whole new species.

4:18 am

well, depending what genetic mix they have

I have a good old fashioned shetland sheepdog (from the netherlands originally and crossed with a whole bunch of dogs that sailors introduced) and she is pure bred and predictable!!

4:18 am

There's always a bit of a debate in the log about rescue/mongrel dogs versus pedigree. I'm happy that it's perfectly okay, if you want a particular breed, to get it from a responsible breeder. I wouldn't touch a puppy farm. But to say that all mongrel/rescue dogs are necessarily better or more worthy is not true, in my opinion.

4:19 am

for example, if a heeler breeds with pretty much anything, you'll get "interesting" results. full heelers are much nicer and less temperamental dogs than half / cross heelers

oh my god! my dog is an english/irish whore!

4:20 am

Anyway, when I get a dog to accompany Oedipuss, it will be a borderjack - cross of a border collie and jack russell

4:21 am

Coffe time is over and not a single word entered in the grid, oh well it will have to wait till later. The work bell is tolling so time for me to skeddadle. Lovely to chat but must away. Happy Babbling.

4:21 am

good-bye poof

4:21 am

Then clear your house of furniture and see that dog fly!

zen, are you insane??? or do you have 120 acres for it to run on?

4:22 am

What a shame, FMitch! It was good to see you - see you later!

4:22 am

Bye Diem!

4:22 am

It'll be quite a sight - Oedipuss and Zen in matching underpants and a streak of dog preceding them.

LOL haz! I want the rights to the pictures!

4:23 am

Got to earn my OU fees somehow Haz *happy grin* *poof*

4:23 am

He/she can fly with their matching underwear too

4:23 am

Bye FMitch!

4:23 am

bye fmitch

4:24 am

I'll have to let the local newspapers know, they're always on the look out for a good story.

4:24 am

Mind you, they'll probably not spell things properly and call the dog Oedipuss and the cat Jack.

4:25 am

my daughter has a border collie, a lovely dog, needs lots of excercise otherwise lies around all day

4:26 am

can't imagine one crossed with a jack tho

4:26 am

If the Jack Russell element was as clever as Eddy on Frasier, you'd be in for a treat.

4:26 am

choose the pure bred zen

4:26 am

Husband LOVES that dog.

4:27 am

Yes, border collies are the most beautiful and intelligent of dogs...

4:28 am

They are.

4:28 am

i agree, drop too much hair for me to want one but i love max, he has the most sweet nature

4:28 am

and is amazing with kids

4:28 am

You could always get a chihuahua, Andree.......

4:28 am

my best friend has a border collie / heeler brat. He's gorgeous

4:29 am

yuk haz

4:29 am

The required response, Andree.

4:30 am

What is a heeler, Ata?

4:30 am

i like the springers best

4:30 am

A woman of taste, Andree, I've always said so.

4:30 am

but will probably get something smaller when i get my own place and can get a dog

4:31 am

A doctor with poor spelling (heeler)?

4:31 am

loooool refresh for pic :)

if you want a small collie, go for the shetland sheep dog, or 'sheltie'... just gorgeous

4:32 am

Andree, West Highland terriers are nice little dogs, and a friend claimed hers didn't shed. Mind you she vacuumed hourly so perhaps dog didn't get the chance.

4:33 am

lol haz

time for dinner (please!!) see you all later

4:34 am

Bye mrpresident! Eat well.

4:35 am

Tum calls me for b'fast, bfn.....

4:35 am

if and when my business sells and i buy a house/apartment/kennel whatever i can decide on a dog

4:35 am

And you know who to consult for advice, Andree. You'll find no shortage of it here!

4:36 am

i know haz

4:36 am

Anyway, I must be off to get some structure into my day, so I'll be back later. Bye for now!

4:36 am

me too, must have some dinner, happy babbling all

4:37 am

Bye Andree and everyone.

Saturday and Sunday we had lunches. She meet my boyfriends family on Sunday and after lunch we went to their house for tea and biscuits. Monday we had a shopping day.

I saw parents last year and mum this year as going to Tassie isn't cheap

4:56 am

great herin i expect you are missing her already send you a big hug xxxxxxx

Mum doesn't shop at big centers often as they live in the country.

Thanks for the hug. I do miss seeing them.

Are all the L words LO?

4:58 am

that was why i asked if you went shopping lol

Nope. Not many shops in one center for them

4:58 am

yes they are

Dang missing 2 of them oh well. ANne how are you?

4:59 am

12 lo in total

Yep found 11 of them. I wonder where everyone is?

5:02 am

been busy i am in the walkers club in knox we walk on a tuesday so i have done 7 ks this morning then food shopping then 2 loads of washing and cooked an apple cake so i am pooped now lol

5:03 am

everyone must have gone for dinner

I have walked heaps

I have just came back with dinner

5:08 am

i am in my 70 s so i have to keep as fit as i can

Even so wow that out walks me

In SOuthland they have a walkers club they walk about southland when it opens in the mornings

5:10 am

we walk inside so i get to see all the bargains as we walk at 8 o/clock before it realy opens

That could be a bad thing :)

hi anne! :)

HEy MR Pres

hi infern :)

Hot hot hot Cannelloni is bad

5:13 am

must be the same thing the beauty of it is you are always in the dry and it is flat you do not have to look down to see if there are steps or anything

ouch infern!

5:14 am

hi mr p how are you doing sending you lots of hugs you have gone through a lot xxxxxxxxxxxx

hi anne! am doing ok... nothing much changed but happy to be here with you all

Thats true Anne. Mr pres Turkey mince with 'nonos bolognas mix (tomatoes, red wine, tomato paste) covered in cheese Béchamel which had in it Bocconcini, cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese. topped with more cheese

5:17 am

good on you wish i could help in some way wished you lived in melbourne haha

oh, here comes the rain!

oh anne! you all help alot on babble... thank you!

Mr Pres my dad has osteomyelitis in his leg but 'its not a big deal 'slaps my self in the head. I told him it was a big deal, we have always lived with the thought in our minds that he would loose the leg as he was hit by a truck when he was 2 and its always been an issue

5:19 am

lickety is lucky to have such a lovely lady and such beautiful kids they follow their mother of course lol

infern, osteomyelitis is a strange strange disease... and some people live with it, but my disease is not the 20th century variety... it is 19th century insipid bone eating disease that is crippling. I hope your dad is ok! :)

thanks anne! you are beautiful to say that!

I feel for your dad cause the pain is bad no matter which variety you have! poor papa

After hearing about you Mr Pres i was like 'gar its a BIG deal' Hes already been dead 2 or three times over in hospitals so its something we go 'sigh' His doctor is a lovely man that checks the leg regulary. Your arm got the short end of the stick with you and I always think about how lucky you are that they 'fixed it' and that you have a lovely man and kids.

oh infern! I wish your daddy the best! you are brave to discuss him and I can tell you love him dearly!

As he is old (65 this year) the leg has little covering on it so the skin is prone to infection. Thanks for you kind thoughts. Its funny in this day and age that parents like mine go 'I have blar wrong' not to worry you but the internet has heaps of information. Dad has always lived on borrowed time. He got hit by a truck at age 2 causing the leg problem.

5:26 am

herin how does your mum cope with it all poor love xxxxx

Yep i love the old fart :). They have been married for 40 years this year

my pain is temporarily under control... at least I don't have the disease from that young! your poor dad!

herin, go buy her a ruby pendant or ring... she will love that! it means she cared for her marriage and she is valued

Mums mum. She and him have been told 'Oh is this your second time round with marriage and they are llike 'No put up with each other for 40 years'. Dads leg thingie has been an issue for years but the infection thing is a recent thing

I will be doing that this year. I am hoping to spring a night for them somewhere.

the infection has been there since forever... it only just came up now..? that sounds very usual

infern, give her the jewellery... is nicer for them at their age to have the permanent reminder, trust me!

5:30 am

that will be lovely herin you are a lovely girl gosh there are realy lovely people on babble and we all have a story to tell

Um i think i have explained my self all wrong. Dads leg has been barely covered across the shin since 2 but like all things age wise skin gets thin thus making it more prone to infection

oh infern... he is a strong man. good on you for loving them

we do anne :) I love the people here too... they keep me sane

Thank you MR pres. I have just found a wonderful gift for them online

oh good infern!!

5:36 am

it is always good to talk to someone else with problems it helps to share the pain xxx

anne, it was so great to come on here and chat with my babble friends, even in hospital, they made me feel human!! I get so much out of the people here... everyone has a story and strength to share :))

5:38 am

Good Morning Everyone!!!

I found this lovely photo frame a wood one with Forty Years Together in the top corner and two rings entwined in the bottom one silver one 'ruby'.

HI Scrabs

5:43 am

i am learning the computer the typing and the strange words so i will when i get a bit cleverer lol

5:43 am

Oh Peri, if I worked at Chico's I'd be tempted to spend a big part of each payday at the store.

Thats wonderful Peri

good luck with your new job peri!!

5:44 am

I was tempted chiley, the discount is 50% but I resisted since it was my first day

5:44 am

thanks mrp

5:45 am

this is a totally new venture for me, I was a hospital social worker for over 20 as well as doing Reiki for the past 10

peri, you are still a reiki giver.... this is your second job!

5:45 am

What a dramatic change, Peri.

Peri that is marvelous.

5:46 am

that is true, mrp, I am thinking of where to advertise for my Animal Reiki business

good lord, lickety just pointed out that I haven't entered a single word since flip, and I have been here the whole time!! what is wrong with me?

5:46 am

silly mrp, busy chatting :-)

oh it is sad!! but love it!

5:47 am

Since the flip? 5 1/2 hrs ago?

5:47 am

i must get my head down too mr p good luck xxxxxxxxxx

5:47 am

You have been busy chatting and I was sleeping the entire time.

yes scrabbler.... I am attached to my bed and my computer... you guys are my life line at this moment

Peri the clothes are nice there

scrab, it is only 8.45pm... I have hours of fun with you guys left! LOL

5:48 am

Is there an alternative vet in your area?

5:49 am

5:49 am

And I will be at work, mrp, then return while you are asleep, LOL.

5:49 am

http://www.animalreikisource.com/

5:50 am

I just found this site for you peri

oh!! it is the grid!! LOL, I thought you were hungry.... see? I haven't started!

5:50 am

thanks herin, appreciate it. not sure if I checked that site out already or not, will look in a little bit

5:51 am

herin, how come you are not smilling in your icon?

5:51 am

Don't rush the rid search, mrp. Pace your self.

peri, alot of people love their reiki... for pets it would be perfect!! I would insist on you doing our reiki!!! do your homepage with testimonials... I will be your testimon

5:52 am

I mean *GRID search, mrp

5:52 am

thanks ever so much mrp, I have a separate e-mail for my animal reiki but no website as yet

I dont know

i think i wasnt human at that time of day

oh a website would be the way to go!! please do not hesitate to ask for help with that!

5:53 am

clues for the 8's please

5:53 am

You look hypnotized, Lady

5:53 am

I would need lots of help with that mrp, my best friend would probably help me, she helped with the flyers

5:53 am

if she is not able to help I will certainly ask for help here, mrp

let me know if you need help... best thing is to find a site you like and go from there... it is easiest

lady also looks 19!!

5:55 am

there are at least 2 other women doing animal reiki, I have checked out their sites

5:55 am

they do not live anywhere near me, they live in other states

Ha ha

I refreshed my icon

peri, you will do wonderfully! I promise you!

5:56 am

thanks so much for the support, mrp

5:56 am

herin, like the new icon much better, you both look happy

(((hugs and support always)))!!

Thats with my mummy

Peri how can you do Reiki on a fish?

your mum is gorgeous!!

5:58 am

well, if they are in a fishbowl, I would put my hands on either side of the bowl, if they are in a pond, I would do distance Reiki

My mind boogled as fish reiki. Thanks Mr Pres i love your icon.

peri, can you 'feel' my pain? are you able to help me from where you are?

6:01 am

no I can't feel your pain, mrp but sometimes I get a tingly feeling in my hands

6:01 am

yes I can definitey help from where I am, I can send reiki anywhere in the world

6:02 am

does anyone have the 8's

thanks infern... I am happy in that pic!

peri, I feel your healing, I really do! thank you so much (hugs)

6:03 am

so glad, mrp

6:03 am

Ithink of you a lot mrp even when I am not actively sending Reiki

6:05 am

will look for them, thanks mrp

6:05 am

Good afternoon Babblers.:-)

6:05 am

hi there Jac

Peri i had a good creepy experience with Reiki, the woman knew what was wrong and i didn't say a word. Shamans give the best hugs. Some spirit mediums arent frauds, we have a ghost dog in my house, had a ghost cat in another house and now i guess you all think im unhinged

Hi Jac

6:06 am

Hey JAcula!

6:07 am

herin - We have ghost animals in this house. It's just a thing we all accept and it doesn't worry us.

6:07 am

not any more unhinged than the rest of us herin :-)

6:07 am

okay must go, have an appt at 9, bbl

Peri - mrp feels your warmth - and she really appreciates your healing

6:07 am

Bye Peri

6:26 am

Rolin - LOL (re barge pole).

6:27 am

still waiting for scrab's explanation of "what" she pictured ....

6:27 am

MrP - I'll look out for it. You said in about 6 weeks when the cast is off?

6:27 am

ok..ok..now everyone has heard little kids refer to 'rudies'...

and this time lickety is going to be my guest!! hahaha! he will be a funny one to interview!

6:27 am

rolin - I tried 'rudies', too.

6:27 am

my phantom is noodles

6:27 am

6:28 am

Thanks, carlee - now I can 'see' noodles as well!;)

6:28 am

I pictured you as having really dark hair, Carlee

6:28 am

6:29 am

< blushing> mr pres... u should talk...

lickety is setting up for a babble video... I need questions to answer!!

what questions would you like to ask!

6:30 am

For some reason I can now 'see' "apricot" in the grid and there isn't even a 'p'. *sighs*

6:30 am

"why" his obscession with computers

6:30 am

I don't have a "save" option when I right-click, carlee.

6:30 am

hmmmm

carlee.... lickety = geek

6:31 am

can u minimize the screen and click and drag to your desktop?

6:31 am

I have to get ready for work now--I will play around with photos later.

6:31 am

MrP - How you two first met and what is first thought was on seeing you. Also, if he did the chatting up, what is opening line was.

6:31 am

Bye everyone!

We love the lickety

6:31 am

*his first thought

6:31 am

ahh... geek is the new chic... how does lickety feel about being so"in" now then :p

bye scrab!!

6:31 am

'Bye, Scrabbs. See you later.

6:32 am

later scrabs

6:32 am

hehehe... we all facing the same direction for our pics... how funny is that

jac, his opening line (in a pool hall) was 'if you were a tear in my eye, I would not cry for fear of losing you'

6:32 am

Eh?

Later Scrabbler

6:33 am

Corny, LOL. I like men who can make me laugh.

6:33 am

carlee - so we are!

Was that Liketys pick up line for you Mr Pres?

6:34 am

somewhere on a disc I have a pic of me in a dance costume...made up like like... a dancer :op

6:34 am

MrP - It'll be interesting to know if his first thought on seeing you is repeatable.

I was with a 'boy'... and he came up to me with a pocket full of pick-up-lines.... he chose that as his pickup with me... I laughed at him and asked him how much he was betting on picking me up. He said his line was 'if you were a tear in my eye, I would not cry for losing you. I laughed at him and the rest is history

6:35 am

heck if I can find it right now tho..its old but its "diferent"

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

6:35 am

Ditto what herin just typed.

6:35 am

very sweet mr pres....

and rolin!! I love your dress!

Mr Pres that is so cute.

I am still laughing at him now!

laughter is the best!! thank goodness for happiness!!

6:37 am

you are very lucky mr pres

6:37 am

carlee - I have a pic of me (on old pc) dressed up as a saloon girl - feather boa, feathers in my hair, split-sided dress, fishnet tights, ankle-strap vamp shoes. It squashes up too much on here though. LOL

Thats annoying my pc is being a pest and cant see fotos

6:37 am

MrP - Paul makes me laugh almost every day. It's great.

oh I love laughing!! we are lucky jac!

6:38 am

neat jacula... I love the aspect of dressing up for dance..is like playing dressup when you were a kid... but doing it for stage

6:38 am

carlee - mine was for a fancy dress birthday party.

oh a fancy dress party! I want that for my 40th!

6:40 am

fun... last dressup party we did was a PJ party... ( kids too..yet another neighbourhood do )... mine was for a dance show here in town... when I danced in costume...stopped that about 4 years ago tho

6:40 am

MrP - we are. After 10 years in the emotional desert of post-divorce Paul walked into my life and made it 200% better.

Thinking about a masquerade for my 30th but the venue closed down.

6:40 am

I'm refusing to think about my 50th.

6:41 am

me too.

6:41 am

same here haz... I got married on my mum's 50th... and now I am approaching my 50th... has me shaking in my boots

6:41 am

But mine's next year. I'm not old enough to be 50.

6:42 am

ohhhh, next YEAR, i assumed it was at least 10 years away, and why waste all that time thinking?

6:42 am

i hate birthdays..

they closed down my bar due to stoopid anti smoking rules - it was a cigar bar

6:43 am

No, it's next year. Maybe I'll be sensible by then.

6:43 am

Hmmm - Well Haz has until May 1st 2008 to still be 'in her forties' and Hursh has until July 27th. Dunno Hursh's age.

Haz!! you are only as young as you feel!

6:43 am

the nerve of them, wanting people not to get lung cancer

6:43 am

I know, I'm still waiting to feel grown-up and sensible.

6:43 am

too true mr pres.. I think I'm 23 and foolish still

6:44 am

MrP - I thought the saying was, 'You're only as young as the man you feel'? In which case... P's 12 years' younger than me.:D

Hurshy it was a smoking bar not a bar bar. It sold cigars and no mater what it catered to smokers not non smokers.

6:44 am

hello everyone! are we having "thinking about birthdays"?

Yep

6:45 am

Some of us are, some of us are burying heads in sand. I'm one of the ostriches.

6:45 am

again i say, the nerve of them, not wanting people to get lung cancer! especially if some of them are uninsured and the burden of paying for their treatment could fall on the public!

Hurshy people eat junk food and are morbidly obese do you think they should be denied health access cause thats the same thing really - Thats self inflicted. The air in that club was cleaner than the city air

6:46 am

The legislation recently passed in UK pertains to protecting people from smoking in the workplace, so it's not so much a case of 'you can't smoke for your health's sake' as 'you can't smoke for the sake of the health of the person serving you.'

6:46 am

My birthday is Nov. 1..and I will be 74....so to me you are all younguns...

6:47 am

i would not object to a special tax on junk food.

oh the maharajah of midgets

6:47 am

Anomalies arise. Nurses in a mental nursing home are forbidden to smoke because it is their workplace. Residents CAN smoke because it is their home.

6:47 am

Voluntary admissions have increased dramatically.

The cigar bar was well ventilated. The air was clear and about as grotty as city air

6:48 am

As for morbidly obese people, doctors are beginning to refuse to offer treatments because there is too great a risk for surgery.

6:48 am

I stopped smoking 22 years ago and I wouldn't mind a cigarette now and then

6:49 am

couldn't they get around the legislation by making it "member's only"

6:50 am

Nothing can get round the legislation. Tony made it up.

6:50 am

we have "smoking clubs" here... for nargheelas... and you have to sign a membership log..and you are issued a card

6:50 am

oh..where there is a will there is a way

6:50 am

there are cigar bars in new york and you can smoke away

smoking clubs!! wow

6:51 am

!

6:51 am

And at what point do they realise a member is on fire and not just enjoying himself?

6:51 am

i think it has something to do with providing the nargheels...or..the cigars... I would assume..u cannot bring in your product..the club must provide the product for a charge

There was 2 in melbourne 1 closed down and one is trying to get an excemption

6:52 am

( I would assume when a flame occurs instead of a glowing ember??? )

6:52 am

this grid stink BTW...

6:52 am

a

6:52 am

stinks even

6:52 am

I suppose so. The waiters are probably trained to spot the difference.

Right im going to sleep now and yes this grid sucks

hi angelsong :)

6:52 am

hi, all

6:53 am

nite herin

6:53 am

hi angel

6:53 am

But it's smoke-free, so it doesn't stink.

6:53 am

cigarette smoke in your hair and in your clothes stink, ewwwww

6:53 am

'Bye, herin. Hello, Angel.

6:53 am

( another phantom nausea )

nite infern :)

6:53 am

Haz - You mean we can't smoke in here?? *stubs out cigarette*

Numbers is sucking too much for me too handle

6:54 am

Hello again. Well, I have tried to put a picture of me in my profile and it says that it has changed. However, all I can see is the old bad red wedding dress icon.

6:54 am

Homes are exempt from the legislation - so far!

ok, lickety and I are going to do a little ditty... record some video.

All of my friends are garden gnome smokers they all smoke outside

6:54 am

7:02 am

LOL, carlee, I do not even know what a web cam attachment is....i am very computer illiterate

7:02 am

hmmmm... ok.. well... i guess no pic for annie :(

7:03 am

hi all, would put a pic, but they're always too big, how to make it small enough?

7:03 am

carlee, please give up on me but I do appreciate your trying to help me...I cant even change my icon, oh dear

7:03 am

still waiting on hurshy....

take care Jac dont work too hard

bye jac! enjoy your baking!

7:03 am

shdy... do you know how to run your photo software?

7:03 am

it doesn't matter shdy, they size automatically.

hurshy is chickenshit! I have never seen her pic! come on woman!

7:04 am

sort of, ....

7:04 am

( not..they don't...I've had to resize high pixalated pics)

7:04 am

i should warn you all that i have a rebellious and contrarian nature, and the best way to get me NOT to do something is to keep insisting that i do it :)

7:05 am

ok..open one of your pics in ur photo software..there should be an option in there to resize...

7:05 am

carlee, I see your small icon but when I click on your profile I see a Jackson Pollock, sort of, what do I do to get your the picture of you into your profile

7:05 am

exactly, carlee, babble doesn't like my camera a bit

7:05 am

Come on hurshy....if I can do it you can. I loathe pictures of me.

well, then I insist!!

7:05 am

save the new pic to a new sppot so it is easy to find ( desktop always works well )

7:05 am

did that, then....

7:05 am

i don't loathe pics of me, not all of them anyway, i just want to find more words before work.

7:05 am

jackson pollock?

7:06 am

ok..then... go to your profile and upload it...

7:06 am

it seems to me that this is a time of viewing eachother for compliments! we are such a nice bunch of people! all are viewed as gorgeous! cause we are!!

7:07 am

carlee, it is a mishmash of lines, looks like a Jackson Pollock painting

7:07 am

well..DUH mr pres....

7:07 am

Just seeing my craggy old features reminds me that I have yet another birthday in two weeks time. Boy do they fly by quickly. Keep telling myself that I'm 28 and holding.

go upload your pics and be proud of the gorgeous people you are!!

7:07 am

the wanderings of a mate of Odysseus

9:26 am

Hi Haz, you too, smiling at me from your icon

9:27 am

It's the day for posting our own faces, apparently. You must join us.

9:27 am

O.K.I'll try in a mo

9:28 am

Im a bit woried about poor pida though !!LOL

i'm back..... groceries are bought and put away so thats done for another week!

9:29 am

pida is doing OK. There should be a little more gray in the hair, tho

9:29 am

She's got her make-up on, so she's made the effort!

9:29 am

thanks everyone

9:30 am

Good for you, Nono, it's a job I detest but it keeps happening.

9:30 am

Hi Nono

9:30 am

morning all!

don't i know it Haz! it's one of my most dreaded chores

hi Jen

9:31 am

Morning jen

9:31 am

too many vowels today!

9:31 am

The only way I can make myself think positively about the grocery thing is to think of it as a work-out. You're lifting every item seven times. That's got to use up some calories.

never thought of it that way but your right!

9:33 am

It's the only way to explain the tiredness. And it gives you an excuse to eat something to make up for the lost calories.

9:35 am

I did my grocery shop yesterday so i have been able to sit in the sun today and catch up on my reading

9:36 am

how many words today?

9:36 am

196

9:36 am

thanks caitlyn

9:36 am

You have sunshine, caitlyn? That's so nice.

9:36 am

yw and hi

9:37 am

Its been lovely and warm today haz with more tomorrow

9:37 am

I'll hope for a better day tomorrow, then.

9:38 am

hi again all....I came back to see if by chance the grid owuld look anybetter after it sat for a bit

9:38 am

Its not been good today then Haz?

hi Carlee

it still looks the same to me

9:38 am

Hi carlee

9:38 am

yeap...its looking 'bout the same here... who wants to play hookie on he first day of school?

9:38 am

Hello carlee - the words are there, they're just taking longer than usual to show themselves.

9:39 am

It's been drizzling most of the day, Caitlyn.

9:39 am

( I believe...haz.. is delusional...or perhaps hitting the whiskey WAYtoo early today )

9:40 am

No, I promise you. Really normal words.

9:40 am

pass that whiskey over here

9:40 am

Lets hope its better tomorrow then haz

9:40 am

( she's losing touch with reality everyone...we need another intervention at haz's )

9:41 am

I need an intervention to do laundry, a dreaded chore but must be done, later everyone

9:41 am

later annie

9:42 am

Hello, all you beautiful ladies!!

9:44 am

good morning all

9:44 am

I am doing very well, kat... Honestly, kat, if I knew squat about computers, I would join in, but I have no personal pix on disc, and wouldn't know how to upload, download, sideload them anyway,,,,, BUT I promise I will learn!!

9:44 am

Morning flosey

9:45 am

<sniff> <sob>

hello flosey

9:45 am

morning flosey

9:45 am

Hi, flosey

9:45 am

Dorens is the hyperomnipotent monkey vampire bat beast god. All bow their bow-legged knees before her mighty Bottles Of Bean.

9:45 am

There, there... don't cry, kattie... I'm an almost 62 year old woman... you're not missing much... LOL

9:45 am

scarlet we'll have to hold you to that, if I can learn at 75 you can do it

9:45 am

Dorens! LOL, and hello!

9:46 am

so ur 62?...ur point is?????

9:46 am

rather ALMOST 62....

9:46 am

Hello Scarlet, sorry to miss your entrance, I was wrestling with c.

9:46 am

hello everyone. hope you all had a good weekend

9:47 am

Hi, Scarlet!

9:47 am

I'm finding a lot of 4 letter words difficult to get - and how many directions are there to go !!!

9:47 am

Flosey, what an inspiring scolding... I really shall make a fine effort... the point is, once a redhead gets past a certain age, the chemical romance for hair is a touchy proposition. Hello, Haz...looking very beautiful this morning, I might add!

hello deb

9:48 am

Thank you Scarlet!

9:48 am

its ok red...I am currently going through the chemical romance with my hair too... never know what colour I might try next and having a blast with it

9:48 am

:-)

9:48 am

I'm still a strawberry copper, but the roots are getting dark auburn as I age.

9:49 am

am a natural med ash blond... but going through a med brunette stage right now

9:49 am

have been thinking about trying a dark auburn next

9:49 am

Its great seeing how people look !1

9:49 am

Scarlet I gave up on the chemical touch-ups many years ago, hair grew too fast, 3 - 4 days later had a white path where hair separated

9:49 am

it is isn't it cait?

9:50 am

Flosey, I am getting fed up with the every-three week routine... I wish my hair would go white or grey or something other than dark auburn...

9:50 am

went white at a very early age - as did mom

9:50 am

why not go dark auburn with coppery highlights...

9:51 am

would be fab....

9:51 am

just colour it that colour in one fell swoop

9:51 am

rather then go through the transition

9:52 am

And me flosey ,we all go grey young in my family

9:53 am

( you know what I hate tho..my grey hairs are all kinky and twisty...whereas my "baby" hair is stick straight )

9:53 am

yes carlee, the whites always seemed to be stronger

9:53 am

I know carlee it will even out though

9:53 am

My grandmother was affected by the horrific pandemic inflenza in 1918, and her long, reddish/ blonde hair fell out... as a young woman, carrying my mother in 1919, all her hair came in silver... it was gorgeous

9:54 am

they stick out all over... I look like I have "fuzzy" straight hair... if that makes anysense?

9:55 am

*sleepwalks back into chatlog*

9:55 am

wow..that would be gorgeous... I also love the dark brunettes who get one very slick white streak in the widow's peak...

9:55 am

*influenza*

9:55 am

Morning Eva

9:55 am

wow..i've found 1 word in 20 mins of being here

9:56 am

I habe played with putting in some white/silver/ blonde streaks, and it looks like a redhead gone wild with a high-class bottle of peroxide... LOL

9:56 am

Hi, Eva! Nice picture!

9:56 am

that's the way I started last night carlee, spent more time chatting

9:56 am

so bored here at work, nothing to do!

9:56 am

thanks scarlet :)

9:56 am

:-)

9:57 am

flosey you are very glamorous

9:57 am

i love colouring hair... one neighbour came by yesterday for me to streak her hair... she had a reddish brown ( bottled) and I put in some really fine and sparce platinum highlights....turned out really pretty

9:57 am

Flosey, you have the "essence" of a younger Pearl Buck... beautiful...

9:58 am

oh my, if you could see me now !! it's cold, just up and wrapped up in cozy terry robe and drinking coffee

9:58 am

I have to agree with red... very glam

9:58 am

but thank you for sweet comments

9:58 am

that was taken one day we were out to dinner with friends

10:00 am

They should have catered dinner to YOU!\

10:00 am

I can vouch for Flosey's beauty, having sen her close up! Now I'm refreshing my own icon

10:00 am

hi hetty

10:00 am

Hetty, I've seen pictures of you, too... also quite beautiful..

10:00 am

`yes hetty, come on, let's see that beautiful smile

10:00 am

The one I chose was too large, so this one includes my daughter

10:00 am

There you are hetty looking lovely

10:01 am

there she is.... gorgeous

10:01 am

is that one of your daughters hetty?

10:02 am

Such a loving picture, hetty.

10:02 am

Have you noticed there are no pictures up from our male babbles

10:02 am

babblers!

10:02 am

That's the youngest of the three, Flosey. They also have a big brother

10:02 am

the 2 Os in the lower corner are escaping me...any hints?

10:03 am

caitlin -- i think smoothpapa had one up earlier...

10:03 am

hello fellow babblers. it's really nice to see everyone's smiling faces today!

10:03 am

Hi abe

10:03 am

Caitlyn, all I had seen was a horse or two, and then I clicked... you are so lovely, and that smile is so warm and all-inclusive to everyone!!

10:03 am

Hi Caitlyn :)

10:03 am

Yes. We sure are a handsome lot, we gal babblers

10:03 am

oc8 comes from one of them - four letters for eight, then midday, replacing one of the n letters with another letter.

10:03 am

yeap..was smoothpapa

10:04 am

of COURSE we are hetty....

10:04 am

Hi there, abe79... another beauty joins the "line-up"

10:04 am

Oh thank you Scarlet,what a lovely thing to say

10:04 am

thanks haz, what a word!

10:04 am

Hey Scarlet. Thanks!

10:04 am

*Hugs all around!*

10:05 am

I know, you can see why it's not used a lot.

10:05 am

it is fun seeing all the faces

10:05 am

that o 8 seems like a character from the old zelda games

10:05 am

and what a meaning!

10:05 am

OH, kattie... I wish I were more savvy...

10:05 am

fireworks!

10:05 am

Congratulations, Angelsong!

10:06 am

Congrats Angelsong!!

10:06 am

WTG Angelsong

10:06 am

Yay Angelsong!

10:06 am

I know,. I wonder who took the time to attach a word to a meaning.

10:06 am

<POMOM TWIRL TWISTY TOOS> for angel

10:06 am

Congrats angel!!

10:06 am

wooohooo Angel, congrats

10:07 am

got the other O down there?

10:07 am

Haz, that disgusting word is STILL used here in the south U.S.A.

10:07 am

Then they must have too much time on their hands, Scarlet.

10:07 am

And extremely biased native memory, Haz.

10:08 am

Also, the quad- prefix for the same ending...

10:09 am

you know...its sooo..interesting how regions have completely different perspectives on such things... even tho my town is very "blue collar" I have to give it credit... all the various ethnicities that are gradually appearing here...are very... welcomed...

10:09 am

Really? It's a pity it hasn't died out as being irrelevant.

10:10 am

where I lived up north was much more segregated than places in the south that I've lived, actually--for allt he northern ideas that racism is worse in southern states

10:10 am

The "new face of the South" is experiencing an expanded consciousness about ethnic differences, too, kattie. Some old attitudes prevail in a few corners, but it is changing for the better.

10:10 am

well..I guess that is what I am getting at haz...we were just talking about the biases of the south and we were all sitting there saying "but why"

10:12 am

The very fact that a woman and a man of color are now front-runners in a presidential campaign, speak very highly of this nation's evolution...

10:12 am

the attitude is more... who's the new kid?... which one....u mean the kid with the dark hair and eyes? just like saying who..the blonde with blue eyes?

10:13 am

whoever does get elected..will be very interesting...( although I am still kinda pulling for richardson... )

10:13 am

It galls me when I have to fill in official forms to claim a grant for the children who attend our riding for the disabled group. The form requires me to say what religion they are (I don't know, nor care) and whether they are chinese, irish traveller, white etc. They're children who need help!

10:13 am

Here in the more liberal core of Asheville, it is not so much black or white, but brown against the world... the Latino population is growing, and I, for one, love it.

10:14 am

Okay, professing ignorance... what's an "irish traveller" haz?

10:14 am

OY, sis... LOL

10:15 am

i love what very ethnicities bring to the mix... foods..music.. customs... ( speaking of which I got a great new "recipe" this weekend... and once I figure out proper proportions... I will let you all know by posting it...but it will mean visiting a grocer that carries asian foods

10:15 am

Now you've gone and opened a can of worms...

10:15 am

Seriously -- I'm 1/2 Scots, 1/2 Irish, but never heard that expression before.

10:15 am

what various*

10:15 am

People who would have been called gypsies in the past but who have now 'settled' into the community. The proviso being that they stick together in family units, dress the same way and have a different set of values sometimes.

10:15 am

oh..like "the dress"

10:16 am

oh my Haz, thought that attitude went our years ago - in /63 I had to state country of family origin and religion when son was born but 2 years later that nonsense was removed from birth registry

10:16 am

Yes...LOL

10:16 am

You've got it, carlee.

10:16 am

any hints on the two an5/10's?

10:16 am

An oak's baby, Karyn, and a stage "emoter

10:16 am

ok..gone to make up some devilled eggs for justines's lunch she will be home shortly and I willget the dirt on the first morning back

10:16 am

an 5 10 = licorice flavor

10:17 am

flosey - it's to do with the fact that the government likes statistics. Also, if you say you are a cross-community group you have to prove it, so you're supposed to have representation from both communities.

10:17 am

i think i got my picture to load now.

10:17 am

Got to go .. bbl..bye

10:17 am

Ah.... thank you for explaining. The only derogatory ethnic/racial term I heard growing up was 'haole' which is Hawaiian slang for a white person. When I was living there as a youth it was not a nice word to be called.

10:17 am

I tried ignoring the form but they wouldn't let me.

10:17 am

the other an 5 is a + close

10:17 am

I am so sorry, Karyn, I read that as AC... my bad

10:17 am

bye caitlyn and carlee

10:17 am

Some year our quota of Chinese is going to rocket. Then see what they make of it.

10:17 am

10:18 am

Haz, I was working once at a fish farm and the gov't asked me to fill out forms indicating how many of each race we had working there -- what was astounding was the actual instructions: "If the person has a Hispanic surname, count them as Hispanic even if African-American or White" and the same for African surnames, Asian surnames, and so on.

10:18 am

thank you. it is from mother's day

10:19 am

later Haz

10:19 am

Let's face it now... every country is a true melting pot... and the homogenization is not always welcomed... but what a person's religion has to do with anything, I do not understand.

10:19 am

I had to count our bookeeper as Hispanic even though she was black because she married a man who's last name was Mendoza. Ridiculous!

10:19 am

well, After studying all your icons, I decided to replace my wedding picture of 45 years ago with one I had in my file when coffee mugs were the theme. As you can see, time has taken its toll

Hi scarlet. Lost count of the times I've typed 'insurance'.

10:31 am

Just saw it, ch1212... one thing is eerily exact: our choice in kitties... my Phaedra is just about a ringer for your furball... but about 15 pounds at last check...

10:31 am

Sweet, kat... I love it when "simple" is the preferred option.

10:31 am

thanks Frances, I was so close, forget to put the s on

10:32 am

10:32 am

You're welcome

10:32 am

She was a sweetie, and I would have loved to take her home with us. I did have a 'cat house' of 15 at one time, and two of them looked very much like this little charmer.

10:32 am

i STILL want to put noodle in here...

10:33 am

and nausea... those my 2 phantoms today

10:33 am

Is the To 7 an add on to the 4,5 above it ?

My old gal is 15 years old, weighs 15 pounds, has brilliant owl-like eyes and is still funny as it comes...

10:34 am

Ah... you have clearly taken wonderful care of her. I especially like her name Phaedra.

10:34 am

keesha is 12 now... and when she is happy..drools everywhere whilst she purrs like an old chevy

10:34 am

10:45 am

I just spent five minutes trying to monkey that second to4/4... wow, this is a funny grid, sometimes. I have it now, and it was a "Duh" moment...

10:46 am

it used to be that babble was my break from work, but nowadays, theres not much to do at work, so work tends to be a break from babble...hah

10:46 am

LOL, EvaNadine!\

10:47 am

things are pretty slow here as it is, but now, since the company i work for has changed, things are even slower while all the new people are settling in... pretty boring for those of us who stayed.

10:47 am

10:48 am

Morning cats and kittens. No Qu's??? I'm shocked.

10:53 am

11:02 am

11:03 am

ruru: TO6/21, Spanish for bull (4 letters) + not them

11:03 am

i wonder why cheney is not running tho... I never heard him say he had no interest in it..but..I thought typically the sitting VP runs

11:04 am

i think cheney has had enough drama as VP that he knows its not worth it to run for president...heh

11:04 am

Not his one, kat... he will be running as far away from Washington, D.C. as his little heart monitor will allow him

11:04 am

omg.. where are these coming from .. I don't think I like this grid today... lol

11:04 am

no ruru, this grid is not the friendliest

11:04 am

Cheney doesn't have enough heart left to run literally

11:04 am

LOL, ruru... did you find it?

11:04 am

perhaps.... or worried about what is bound to come out once the GOP is out...and he is in another country

11:04 am

ruru -- you oughtta post a picture of yourself as your icon (since its todays icon theme) -- we were just saying earlier that not enough of the male babblers were showing us their photos. :)

11:05 am

2:36 pm

any help with the second ac 5?

2:36 pm

the floor is open

2:37 pm

2:38 pm

I felt dum when i found it finally

2:38 pm

dare away lori, send it to the babblecast mail. jade and mrp can sort out the ones that make the poll.

2:38 pm

i'm not much good at those sort of things... i don't like coercing people to do things they aren't comfortable with.

2:38 pm

We've all been there Kerowyn

2:38 pm

maybe you should put dare in the subject line?

2:39 pm

but, if the stipulations aren't met...nut no take the dare

2:39 pm

2:42 pm

thanks uniquity [I like that name]

2:43 pm

Welcome :)

2:43 pm

what's a sugar glider???

clues for the other 8s?

2:44 pm

In case everyone wasn't aware, Uniquity is our #1 spawnling. She's the one that got me addicted to this maddening game....

2:44 pm

the do8 sounds like a womans name

2:44 pm

I have a do 8 Esprit

can I have the other 6 letters? :-)

2:45 pm

thats the only other one i have at the moment

2:45 pm

nuttty, how do I download this puppy? I am not technically gifted

2:45 pm

i think of it as a more old fashioned womans name

2:45 pm

oc8 = latin for 8 + chocolate maca****

2:46 pm

do + my name first letter + truth ** dare + j***ting is done on horses

2:46 pm

2:46 pm

2:47 pm

ok going off to try

2:47 pm

at pod bean, and it's hard to see, you'll probably have to squint, in tiny little bitty pink letters, it says download...click that.

tks for the OC too, that a person who is 1/8 black right?

2:47 pm

but not native to this continent, so they'd be exotics, not wildlife.

2:48 pm

any hints on the first di 5?

2:48 pm

2:48 pm

2:49 pm

ty much Lori

2:49 pm

y v w

2:50 pm

sugar gliders? depends on the individual...these are rescues, i don' tknow what they're like, i haven't met them yet. there are 14 of them though

2:50 pm

holy cow!...wonder what it would cost to get one out here safely? wouldn't that be a pip? (in grandma mazur voice)

2:51 pm

ne 6/21?

2:51 pm

nm, got it

2:54 pm

oh at last - fireworks - tx for some great clues

2:54 pm

brb

2:54 pm

well, depends on if you're shipping the cage and stuff too, or if you were gonna go buy or build a cage to put them in. health certificate so they could fly would be $26, i'd put them all on the same cert, so that's total, not each. rest depends on the airline you choose to ship by

2:54 pm

ertainly would cost more than, say, going to the pet store and buying one...

2:55 pm

any one have the ei's?

2:56 pm

The ei's are weird.

hello babblers!

2:57 pm

3:27 pm

co8/50 - co, then run together the singing Mr Stewart who passes away.

3:27 pm

co 8 is plural, do you have the 7?

3:27 pm

co 8 50 = co + singer *** stewart + expires

3:27 pm

ae6 help please

heya mom, nuttttttieee

3:27 pm

that's a very flattering picture of you mom!

3:27 pm

co 8/50 to eat away meta, but add 3rd vowel before the last vowel and plural

3:28 pm

be back later with fresh eyes

3:28 pm

Hi Helen

3:28 pm

oh, there is another co 8. Again shutting up

3:28 pm

Thank you Nut.

3:28 pm

bye bye Lideola

3:29 pm

the other co 8 is a plural of the co 7 before it which is to take co***** of the situation

3:29 pm

ae6 - Dido's companion, but change the final vowel to be the final vowel.

3:30 pm

TY, Hazel. I actually understood your clue.

3:30 pm

Excellent!

3:31 pm

ty all for the co 8/50 clues!

3:32 pm

It took me a few tries to get co8/50--only one R in the middle

3:34 pm

Good afternoon, again, everybody....77 to go, and I may finish up sometime today......

hiya pida

3:35 pm

Hi Pida

3:35 pm

Haz... I got the didos companion part, but not the changing the vowels???

3:35 pm

Yes, you will, Pida

3:35 pm

se4/4 please....the LAST one

3:36 pm

thnx for your encourgement, Scrabs...will try

3:36 pm

jvane - the vowel before the end is (I think) usually the first one for Dido's companion, change it to the last vowel.

3:37 pm

se4/4 - the last one is an anagram of se4/4 - having observed.

3:37 pm

s + East-North-Easterly winds

3:37 pm

Take one vowel from the Parisian river, Flask.

3:37 pm

fo 6/30 and 7/44 clue pls!

3:38 pm

Or you can use Hazel's trickier clue instead of my dopey one

3:38 pm

thanks....got it!

3:38 pm

hello all! I survived my first morning in first grade!

3:38 pm

fo6/30 - one who is fond of and knows about edibles.

3:38 pm

Well done Flask!

hiya stid! are you teaching school?

3:38 pm

Wahoo, Stid! Did you make some new friends?

3:39 pm

LOL I think so... drew a pretty flower and a new friend drew the butterfly for it!

3:39 pm

no, helping in my mother's classroom helen -- it's her last year of teaching. I wanted to make it a little easier for her.

3:39 pm

Thank you Haz for the fo word. Although I don't know who or what is dido

3:39 pm

Did you color within the lines, Stid? And I hope you were safe with the scissors and did not eat paste!

3:39 pm

Hi Stid

3:40 pm

lines? we don't need no stinkin' lines! :-D

stid - that's awesome - what a great experience

3:40 pm

Sorry, I forgot that you are in FIRST grade now.

i always liked paste :)

3:41 pm

me too, HK, LOL

3:41 pm

Mmmmm... paste, with a side of Crayolas!

3:41 pm

Dido - queen of Carthage

3:41 pm

I liked the minty library paste...

3:41 pm

thank you Haz, off to find

3:41 pm

A balanced meal, Judi

in the 4th grade a bunch of us girls used to smear paste over our palms during class, let it dry & them take great pleasure in pealing it off in one piece - wow, i don't think i''ve thought of that in a kajillion years

3:42 pm

I saw some VERY fancy crayons! they have a plastic case, and sort of twist up, so only the working end is exposed!

3:42 pm

We used to do that with glue--you can see your fingerprints

3:42 pm

We used to make fake boogers out of rubber cement.

we should form a babble group for pica anonymous, lol

3:43 pm

Do they come in a 64 pack with a sharpener on the back? And with magenta and sky blue and bronze and silver and gold?

3:43 pm

Judi, so you were the one that started that trick.

3:43 pm

Of course. Don't forget Burnt Sienna and Cauliflower (may the rest in peace).

3:43 pm

not the fancy ones -- at least not that I saw scrabbler... but that's okay...

what wonderful accomplishments! - i'm talking about the many uses for paste, but i guess the fancy crayons are cool too

3:44 pm

thank you Haz, I have it now. :)

3:44 pm

I always like burnt sienna... but perwinkle was always my favorite

no more burnt sienna? but now, how long will it take the next generation to wonder what the heck 'sienna' is?

3:45 pm

In first grade I got sick and threw up on my desk and on Peter DiVita's desk next to mine. The entire class was grossed out. The janitor came in and cleaned up with that chicken feed stuff with the weird smell, and then I went to the nurse's office and went home to puke there some more.

3:45 pm

well 'duh' helen! it's a babblet! *looks exasperated like a teen*

3:45 pm

They'll think Sienna began with Sienna Miller, the actress.

3:45 pm

Well, I don't know if I started the fake boogers, Scrabs, but I sure perpetuated it. We used to leave them on teachers' desks.

3:46 pm

and thus you started your illustrious career, cousin?

3:46 pm

Haha, Judi--stuck on an apple?

3:46 pm

I did save a box of the "original" 64 before the change of colors. Maybe someday the grandkids will think it is cool

ahhh haz - they ya go!

3:46 pm

I knew at that moment, Stid, that I wanted to take care of puking kids.

stid & scrabs - are you related?

3:47 pm

Wow! I have the identical puke-in-class story, only I victimized three other people as our desks were cubed in foursomes. Mr. Petrie, the janitor spread that chicken feed stuff. What was that really called?

3:47 pm

rofl... LIER! *snort, cough, choke*

3:47 pm

she's my husband's first cousin helen

3:48 pm

I don't know what that stuff is, Judi, but we all expected it when there was a puke-fest.

well, whaddaya know - all this time, & i never knew you knew each other!

3:48 pm

Judi, we had coloured sawdust stuff. I don't know what the brand name was - Soakitup' or something.

3:48 pm

(my pencil set and my watercolours still include burnt sienna you'll be pleased to know)

3:48 pm

well, we've never actually met... but I keep hoping! :-)

3:48 pm

hi atalante! and peacock blue!

3:48 pm

Hello Atalante!

3:48 pm

Did anyone have the honor of bringing the attendance list down to the main office?

3:48 pm

I've got peacock *green*!

3:48 pm

Hi Ata

3:49 pm

hi haz!

3:49 pm

Hmm. Maybe it was just cat litter. Very mysterious. It smelled just as bad if not worse than the barf, though.

you've never met? how does that work out? you didn't meet on babble, did you?

3:49 pm

*raises hand politely* I did! Today!!!!

hiya ata!

3:49 pm

ei 7?

3:49 pm

3:49 pm

Hi Pappou

3:49 pm

Cat litter? Could that be?

3:50 pm

Hello Babblers!!!!

3:50 pm

hi penny!

lol stid - sounds like you are enjoying first grade more than the first graders themselves, LOL

3:50 pm

I see your attendance list and raise you: Announcing dismissal over the intercom!!!!

3:50 pm

hi Mom. how was your day?

3:50 pm

Yes, we met on Babble when I discovered the site and recognized part of the surname. I (in my excitement) blurted out the surname here in the chat.

3:50 pm

wow Judi -- you are the goddess! *bows to superior one*

3:50 pm

ei7 - if you have ei6/21 - make the ending the opposite of off.

3:50 pm

it was a good day, Pappou. How was yours?

3:51 pm

Judi, did you ever have to accompany a classmate to the nurse's office because they had peed their pants?

3:51 pm

it was good. pretty busy...better now with the fireworks!

3:51 pm

Congratulations Pappou

3:51 pm

yahoo Pappou!

3:51 pm

YAY Penny!

3:51 pm

Congratulations Pappou.

3:52 pm

Hello Babblers!!!!!

3:52 pm

thanks Mom, Stid, and Haz!

3:52 pm

Time for me to stop playing and fix some supper. See everyone later tonight. :)

3:52 pm

i'll be back later, have to prepare for open house

3:52 pm

later Penny

3:52 pm

later Mom

3:52 pm

Kind of, Scrabbler. One of my girlfriend's had a seizure while on the swings once. She incidentally peed herself during the seizure. She was more upset about peeing herself than the seizure. I did walk her to the nurses office. (we tied her windbreaker around her waist so you could'nt see the wet spot).

judi - now that's an honor! i was just reminiscing with my friend about our dismissal procedure & telling her 12 year old daughter about it - we had 3 classes of 50 each in every year (baby boom & all that) so they would play this marching music & call us out by divisions : "bus," "park," "south," north division a," "north division b" and i forget the last one cause i was north division a & then we would march out in 2 lines

3:52 pm

Hi Pinkhat

5:59 pm

For anyone just arriving, Hurshy has not flipped her lid. She's playing 'cash cart' (which I assume is a quiz programme) from the TV at the same time as Babbling. Seemingly random posts will abound.:D

5:59 pm

Well done, flask.

5:59 pm

'Bye, lynxx. Enjoy the day.

6:01 pm

*wonders what on earth Lobster Wars is and how it will affect Hurshy's posts*

6:01 pm

Bye, lynxxx

6:01 pm

it is a show where they follow various commercial lobster boats and see who catches the most lobster

6:02 pm

i have flipped to law and order. i mean once you've seen the king crab version, how much more is there to see with the lobster one?

6:02 pm

to 7?

6:02 pm

someone actually used the word vestibule!

6:02 pm

nobody ever uses that word.

6:02 pm

Hursh - okay... so if you type 'that's a big one!' or 'what a tiddly pot!' we shouldn't be shocked?

6:03 pm

lol, i don't think i would be likely to post whilst watching lobster wars, even if i were watching it.

6:03 pm

Gynaecologists use that word, Hursh.

6:03 pm

ne 6/21?

6:03 pm

I'm beginning to think "Coronation Street " is educational!!

6:03 pm

my gynecologists have never used the word vestibule.

6:04 pm

ne 6: brain cell

6:04 pm

mari - that reminds me - 'ginnel' was in the grid the other day but Enable doesn't allow it.

6:04 pm

none of the docs I work with use that either

6:05 pm

to 7, please?

6:05 pm

shows you what enable knows!

6:05 pm

Hello Babblers!

6:05 pm

Ah well, we in UK must hang on4/4 old words for longer.

6:08 pm

6:09 pm

hursh - there are about 20 billion trillion channels on TV now from what I could tell when I last scrolled through the Sky list. You could always try one of those.

6:09 pm

6:09 pm

i'm sorry cnan, i've been looking but can't find it either yet

6:10 pm

thanks for that second ur5 hursh.

6:10 pm

to7 is a type of parrotlike bird. Sounds like the drink cur****.

6:10 pm

HI

6:10 pm

to 7/36 any of several large, brightly colored birds of the family Musophagidae, of Africa, having a helmetlike crest. Does that help?

6:11 pm

Hi Fran, you look fine without makeup

6:11 pm

thanks jac! great clue.

6:11 pm

ty hurshy

6:11 pm

Or, for to7 take to4/5 (of duty, maybe?) + something you run in to win and change last vowel.

6:11 pm

cur... curry... cur.... hmmm

6:11 pm

thanks peri. :-)

6:11 pm

not really, mari

6:11 pm

hmm, i guess it was a great clue for a drinker. :-)

6:11 pm

ty jac

6:12 pm

it's also an island hursh (the drink)

6:12 pm

aha...thanks for the latter clue jac

thanks mari... yours got it for me

6:12 pm

Fran - I've reclued it just below. LOL

6:12 pm

i have heard of the island :) venezuela, yes?

6:13 pm

not sure, i just know it has a liquer named after it. :D

6:13 pm

geico has a new funny commercial. they do so well, first gecko, then cavemen, now the flintstones.

6:13 pm

jac, i got it from your first clue. ;-)

6:14 pm

Hursh - the island is off the west coast off Venezuela.

hurshy... it's just off the venezualen coast... but it is owned by Holland

6:14 pm

LOL, Fran.

6:14 pm

6:14 pm

yay for geography!

6:15 pm

yay nan!!!

6:15 pm

doof is a word.

6:16 pm

Congrats, nan!

6:16 pm

Speaking of geography, I'm wondering if it is taught in schools now. Over the weekend 3 little lads came knocking wanting to wash cars to raise money for their under12s football team. They eyed my daughter's car (which is filthy!) and I told them that as it wasn't my car I couldn't say, 'Yes'. They asked if my daughter was in and, when I said she was in Africa, they asked where that was!

6:16 pm

Well done, cyber.

6:17 pm

i don't think they teach much of anything.

oh man! that's sad hursh

6:17 pm

very sad

i mean jac... sorry

6:17 pm

even bex, who is smart and does real well in school, didn't have an idea of the relative time distances between william the conqueror and jesus

6:17 pm

not true hurshy -- they teach how to punch keys on a calculator and a computer!

6:17 pm

just that they were both in the past...

6:18 pm

smooth - Yes, I thought so, too. The boys were about 8-years'-old!

6:18 pm

In Massachusetts we teach to the MCAS test and if it is not on the test the kids don't need to know it Sad situation!!!

hmmm... I'd be hard pressed on the details... but wasn't william near the end of the 1000s? or early 1100s?

6:18 pm

1066 battle of hastings

6:19 pm

but that's a loooooong time

ahhh right

6:19 pm

bayeux tapestry tells the story

6:19 pm

Goodnight all - I'm going to lie down in a dark room!!

6:19 pm

speed, that really is sad and i think that's how it is everywhere in the U.S.

6:19 pm

night mari!

6:20 pm

migraine?

6:20 pm

I have a tee-shirt with Harold's death at the Battle of Hasting pictured on it (taken from the Bayeux Tapestry) and the words on my tee-shirt are: I spy with my little eye... something beginning with 'A'.:D

6:20 pm

my sister teaches high school english. she is taking a class to teach her how to teach students to comprehend what they are reading.

6:20 pm

the problem with proficiency based education!

6:20 pm

'Night, mari. See you again.

6:20 pm

do I have to do the co words? ~pouts~ rofl

6:20 pm

but if you are interested in things you kind of learn them anyway. i did.

6:21 pm

same here hursh.

6:21 pm

always thought it must have been a rather painful way to die, jacula

6:22 pm

sadly with all the electronics I don't think kids read the way we did growing up and they lose a lot that way

6:22 pm

cyber - Indeed it must have been. I suppose the arrow pierced his brain but have no idea how long it would have taken him to die.

6:22 pm

this is true.

6:22 pm

I love to read, and am trying to teach that love of reading to my grandkids

6:22 pm

ra 5/12 please

6:23 pm

i have some S and D troubles.

6:23 pm

ra 5/12: drop a vowel from the animal

6:23 pm

ra5 rhymes with a fatty pig meat

6:23 pm

mel - ra5/12 is like piggy breakfast rashers.

6:23 pm

mel, take an O from the bandit animal (ra6)

6:23 pm

thank you

6:24 pm

I think if the parents are readers, the kids will be -- certainly true in our family

6:24 pm

hmm was hoping that would lead to the 6 could I get it clued please

6:24 pm

cyber - true in our family, too.

6:24 pm

first ro5/10 please

6:24 pm

It would also help if parents would limit computer and TV time.

i've gotta take off... I might be back later... see you all

6:24 pm

cu smooth

6:24 pm

bye sp

6:24 pm

mel - ra6 is the banded pest. I believe it's a nuisance in gardens/yards in USA.

6:24 pm

bye smooth!

6:24 pm

ro5 rhyme with gallows rope?

6:24 pm

'Bye, smooth.

6:25 pm

Bye, smooth

6:25 pm

6:26 pm

(Sounds like 'not mad')

6:26 pm

thanks for the ro5 hursh, didn't have it yet

6:26 pm

In MI they determined that only 33 % of high school gradduates are ready for college work, So the State upped the requiremens for graduation to 4 yrs English, four years of math, three yrs of science, etc. etc. Like we had to do in the 50"s in CT

6:26 pm

how many su?

6:26 pm

thanks fran and jac, I always seem to forget that one

6:26 pm

of course it does, thanks hursh

6:26 pm

3, hursh

6:26 pm

3 su's

6:26 pm

a 5 and 2 4's hurshy

6:27 pm

the trouble is the whole system is set up so stupidly. it is a waste of resources for so many people to have a liberal arts education that they don't want and won't prepare them for a career.

6:27 pm

inge - only 33%? Gosh! That's bad.

6:28 pm

could i have a clue for the 5 then? unless it is very fishy.

6:28 pm

but then you wind up with a society that does not have a broad general knowledge, hurshy

6:28 pm

i need that one too, but not if it's fishy. :-)

6:28 pm

ooh nm pulled a peri

6:28 pm

su5/14, hursh. Like the royal house that Henry belonged to.

6:29 pm

my husbanduse was glad to retire becasue of the quality of students getting worse every year

6:29 pm

still 46 to go and tired, taking a break

6:29 pm

:-)

6:29 pm

good morning :)

6:29 pm

su 5: en francais -- south + gold

6:29 pm

you wind up with that either way cnan, cause most of the kids don't pay attention and just drink and party their way through college. total waste.

6:29 pm

Hello, sunny.

6:30 pm

Hi, sunny

6:30 pm

Oh, I'm getting a black square for your icon, sunny.

6:30 pm

hi sunny

6:30 pm

I think it's time one more year was added to high school -- kid are missing out on a lot of the classics and world history just because there isn't enough time for it all.

6:30 pm

a black square is rather opposite of sunny

6:30 pm

I can see a pic on the chatlog but not in your profile, even if I F5 it.

6:30 pm

somebody should tell those kids taht an autowroker gts $63 per hour, twice of what college grads get

6:30 pm

Hursh - LOL. Yes.

6:32 pm

BBS - Need to do a few jobs.

6:32 pm

hello all

6:32 pm

when i started college i had to get special permission to actually take calculus because most had to start with very entry-level math and a startling number had to take a math prep class, just to be able to take the entry-level one!

6:32 pm

later jac!

6:32 pm

hi dorens!

6:32 pm

Hi, Dorens

6:32 pm

I still think it's sad that we have a whole generation that can't construct a paragraph without spell check and grammar check! Nor can they make change without a computerized cash register.

6:32 pm

bye, Jac

6:33 pm

hmm, i started college with multi-variable calc, and i was not one of the most advanced math students.

6:33 pm

when I taught German to first graders I used to ask how many had been ever to a foreitn country. No show of hands.

6:33 pm

or tell time on an analog clock!

6:33 pm

nan, you should try teaching them how to count back change!

6:34 pm

Then I asked who has ever been to Canada (that is only a20 minute drive for most of them) and all hands went up, Parents are not communicating simple facts

6:34 pm

I shudder at the thought, fran

6:34 pm

ac5/12, the second?

6:35 pm

male preson on stage

6:35 pm

not sure if it's the second jellen, thespian?

6:35 pm

one who perfroms in movies Jell

6:35 pm

I have to agree that education is in a bad place in the US right now. no child left behind certainly hasn't helped anything, from my perspective

6:35 pm

yes, it is the second, because the first is the seed of an oak tree

6:35 pm

no child left behind is way too harrison bergeron for me.

6:35 pm

Thanks, Fran and mel. Brain not functioning tonight.

6:35 pm

al 6/21 please the first one

6:36 pm

calculators should be left behind until 2nd year college!

6:36 pm

there is more than one?

6:36 pm

al + medicine portion

6:36 pm

mel, al + a portion of medicine

6:37 pm

al6/21, the second?

6:37 pm

when I went back to college at the age of 36 I could add multiply and subtract faster on paper than the kids who were 18 as they were all used to using calculators I thought it was horrible

6:37 pm

yes hursh, next one is last name of astronaut buzz

6:37 pm

i can't believe i have only found 34 more words in the last 2 hours.

6:37 pm

ty, Fran

6:37 pm

we've all been too busy on the soapbox, hurshy -- lol

6:37 pm

yw jellen

6:38 pm

6:40 pm

6:40 pm

Bye, nan

6:40 pm

7:31 pm

lol well skiff is my last name and it means small boat

7:31 pm

7:33 pm

Firts di5 please

7:33 pm

7:33 pm

do6/24, the second?

7:33 pm

i did not know that hursh, thank you.

7:33 pm

7:33 pm

*cranefly

7:33 pm

?cranfly pests

7:33 pm

jellen, like the do5 but spell it like a european would with the extra vowel

7:33 pm

I knew that - my daughter came home from school years ago and told me daddy long legs wer the most poisonous of all spiders but couldn't hurt her :)

7:34 pm

scrabs, like princess of england, but change first vowel

7:34 pm

my dad always calls it james and the giant carrot. i don't know why.

7:34 pm

Eek!! Thanks Fran

7:34 pm

LOL, I never heard of cranfly or cranefly

7:34 pm

I have two words left...looking for some help

7:34 pm

there is that giant carrot book hursh.

7:34 pm

hey moo!

7:34 pm

the ae6 and the us5

7:34 pm

hey there franny :)

7:34 pm

you mean the one where they all tug it out?

7:34 pm

Yes, Scrabbs, divebombing you in the house, filling the lightshades with their dead bodies, landing on your food etc. I went off cheese on toast for months after one landed on mine and I accidentally chopped it as I cut my toast.

7:35 pm

yes, that one hursh

7:35 pm

us+ national education association

7:35 pm

my dad was NOT thinking of that though. he doesn't read. :(

7:35 pm

i mean he can read, but he doesn't read books. :(

7:35 pm

moo, the ae6 looks like a really strange way to spell anus, just put extra Es everywhere.

7:35 pm

tx dawg...though I doubt such an assoc exists :)

7:35 pm

got it thx fran

7:35 pm

ae+ half hawaiian goose + all of ** should finish this grid

7:35 pm

one of my sisters doesn't read much either :( how can they be related to me?

7:35 pm

and that'd be firewoks

7:36 pm

er fireworks

7:36 pm

whooo hoooo MOO

7:36 pm

fo 6/30?

7:36 pm

yay moo!!!!

7:36 pm

firewoks sounds a little like a new type of chinese restaurant

7:36 pm

Congrats, moo!!

7:36 pm

moo, the association exists here in the states. it has its pros and cons.

7:36 pm

i don't know if i have ever eaten goose. is it yummy? i feel in the mood for some roasted fowl.

7:36 pm

Yahooo Moo!

7:37 pm

Scrabbs - I think you're talking about a harvestman spider not a crane fly (which is an insect not an arachnid).

7:37 pm

congrats

7:37 pm

5 left for me--all ca's

7:37 pm

fo 6/30 sounds like an adjective to describe stuff we eat...except instead of y use two vowels

7:37 pm

hursh, depends on how it's cooked. goose can be rather greasy

7:37 pm

goose can be good...it's really oily, and it's all dark meat

7:37 pm

ty, moo

7:37 pm

go scrabs go!

7:38 pm

I live in ca scrab ;)

7:38 pm

Jac, I call it a generic daddy longlegs and he spooked me. I don't kill spiders, I just stay away from them.

7:38 pm

moo - when I go to our local Cantonese takeaway (where the kitchen is open) it's definitely fireWOKS!

7:38 pm

greasy sounds good right now

7:38 pm

too funny jac

7:39 pm

I tell ya...if you guys are ever in San Francisco, you have to go to Brandy Ho's...the best chinese food I've ever had...and I'm not one to rave about chinese food

7:39 pm

i kill them, but it's mercy killing. saves them from a slow, torture=filled death at the hands of my cats.

7:39 pm

got a hangover hursh?

7:39 pm

ni 5/14 clue?

7:39 pm

Sounds great, Moo.

7:39 pm

no, i don't drink.

7:40 pm

ni+ from ***k til dawn

7:40 pm

ty, lbd

7:40 pm

Goose has to be treated like duck in the cooking - stabbed multipley/frantically(?) LOL with a skewer, salt rubbed into the skin and roasted on a trivet to keep it up out of the oozing fat. The fat should be poured off at intervals and kept for roasting potatoes.

7:40 pm

mmmmm sounds yummy

7:41 pm

indeed...and you can make awesome gravy with the drippings

hows it goin'and hi y'all

7:41 pm

So, you must behave like a psychotic murderer to prepare the birdy

7:41 pm

7:41 pm

yummm jac!

7:41 pm

Scrabbs - Yes. LOL

7:41 pm

hangman's no***

7:41 pm

7:41 pm

7:41 pm

hi gwen

7:41 pm

ty, moo and Fran

7:42 pm

well well well this makes me think of our thanksgiving poetry contests

7:42 pm

yw jellen

7:42 pm

Moo - Cantonese cuisine is the cordon bleu version of your average 'local Chinky'. Much lighter in touch.

how did we get to thanksgiving? it's only just past labor day LOL

7:42 pm

no 4/5?

7:42 pm

thanksgiving is my favourite holiday of all...

7:42 pm

bye bye liz

8:19 pm

Bye Liz

8:20 pm

feather - I seem to have empty bookshelves in goodreads just like in my house at present. The books in the house are all in boxes due to a big clean up/clear out. I think about 12 boxes of books went to charity shops, about 6 boxes to friends and neighbours and the rest (about 15/16 boxes + some stacked on surfaces, as newly bought, are waiting to be catelogued.

8:21 pm

I was going great guns with my big clean up/clear out about 3 weeks ago when my daughter suddenly dumped loads of bags and boxes in same space all ready for her moving out to Uni. That left ME no space to continue what I was doing.

may i have a clue for ca 7/36 please? ty

8:22 pm

I will be able to continue in about 10 days or so, as she will have gone to Uni... but (WAH!) my baby will have effectively left home.:(((

8:54 pm

I'm kind of getting used to calling a garden a yard now when I'm here late and clueing for USA folks... but, to us in UK, as I have said before, a 'yard' is a concreted area that you put your dustbins in, or where lorries park. LOL

9:07 pm

refresh ping, refresh

9:08 pm

Hello Pam! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

9:08 pm

9:08 pm

I like that pic of you Ping!

9:08 pm

thanks stid!

9:08 pm

You have to refresh couple times to see the new icon

9:11 pm

so stid - how much of the day did you spend with the school kids?

9:12 pm

did anyone ever clue the ni 5/14? i am distracted by house hunters on tv

9:12 pm

9.06 eieios

9:12 pm

about three and a half hours, Ping... very glad to be merely a helper, not in charge! first graders are such an interesting mix of ability and fears... especially on the first day. By the end of the month though they will be well into their routines and doing fine.

9:13 pm

WHY is it that not many people like looking at photographs of themselves? Well, I guess we all look for the negative bits first off and find them. Occasionally, we are pleasantly surprised by a photo someone took that doesn't show what we think are our 'faults'. Even when someone who loves us takes a pic when they think we are showing what makes them love us most...we just moan and say things like... 'Did you have to show my double chin offf?' or whatever. If we could only see ourselves as others see us... this is a positive form of this quote rather than the negative the original was meant as.

9:13 pm

pearl's first day was today - she was an interesting mix of fear and ability, i'm telling you

9:14 pm

i can't figure the ni from the 9:06 clue...

9:14 pm

Hope pearl's days get easier and easier, ping!

9:14 pm

me either, jellen. any other ideas?

9:14 pm

oh I bet! I loved how you wrote about them in the blog...

9:14 pm

ni + From ***k till Dawn (I think that's the movie)

9:15 pm

stid, i think i have some cool things i can email you about storytelling and drama with that age group

9:15 pm

pam - ni + what you have to waft away from your house surfaces daily, minus last letter.

9:15 pm

thanks!

9:15 pm

thanks ping! and hi!

9:15 pm

got that one, jellen. still can't figure who i like better in that movie, Salma or George. lol

9:16 pm

hmmm i meant thanks PAM!

9:16 pm

y/w, pam.

9:16 pm

I would LOVE that ping! I bought a book last year at the school bookfair "Fancy Nancy" and read it to Mother's last year students. It is a wonderful book for that age group... in case you haven't encountered it yet.

9:16 pm

no biggie, pin

9:16 pm

9:16 pm

must have been processing jacula's thoughts on looking at self in a photo

9:17 pm

Glad you read my thoughts, ping. Don't think anyone else did!

9:17 pm

found another fab book: Michael Chabon's THe Yiddish policemen's Union. LOVE it. I know, I should go to goodreads, but then, I would have to leave here!

9:17 pm

I used to have a great list of picture books that you read to them and then they act it out

9:18 pm

I did, Jac. Agree with you on photos of self

9:18 pm

hardly ever let anyone take my pic. i can't stand it. i used to look so much better. lol

9:18 pm

then they move on to telling and acting out their own stories

i like what you said there below Jacula. I've noticed in pics I've gone back after a time to look at, I remember first thinking it was Horrible - showing a 'part' i didn't like, like a double chin as you say, but then in retrospect, i think, gee, i look ok, esp on the whole, not picking apart the "pieces" of me. truth be told tho, i wasn't so self-critical til i gained so much weight that it Showed, you know? ugh.

9:18 pm

I read what you said, Jac, but had nothing noble to add/say, LOL!

9:18 pm

first graders love things like that. Of course, there won't be a whole lot of extra time, but I know Mother wants me to do some extra things with her top readers and this might be just the ticket!

9:18 pm

hi franny!

9:18 pm

saintfranny - I know!

hey stid

9:19 pm

hi franny

heya hoops, er i mean ping. :)

9:19 pm

i agree too, jac

9:19 pm

can we just blame mass media and the bombardment from it for not liking our photos?

9:19 pm

Hello saintfranny! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

wait, i don't know if thats hoops or yoyo

9:19 pm

lol franny!

thanks min. kinda stalled with this puzzle tonight. i liked yesterday

Oops - i liked yesterday's a lot better

9:20 pm

I think there are many types of beauty. For me, I don't care how sculpted a body or "classical" the features. If they don't smile, they aren't pretty.

9:20 pm

I am stalled at 76 words, thinking I might grab the list early today

9:20 pm

i only have 40 words

9:20 pm

chat rules

eieios - i think that's part of it, def.

9:21 pm

go ping go! *gets out of way of blazing intellect named ping*

9:21 pm

LOL stid

9:21 pm

eieos _ Well I could blame it on the media since my daughter ended up in hopital/clinic for 3 years with anorexia at 13. However, how do you explain it for someone my age? I'd never blame Twiggy for it! I've been a bit like Liz Taylor in my time, thin, fat, thin. fat... still gorgeous though, if Paul is to be believed.

i agree ping. i LOVE that no matter what time or day i log on here, there's a room full of friends There. i don't always chat/be seen, but it's comforting to know if i Need people, ya'll are here.

9:21 pm

a smile will do the trick every time. too bad we can't see it so well ourselves

9:21 pm

does everyone know already about the babble group on good reads?

9:22 pm

In truth, being thinner feels better. Not too thin though, or you bang your hip bones on things an it hurts.

no what is that ping

9:22 pm

***** fireworks ******* see you tomorrow

9:22 pm

i heard you all talking about it. i love to read!

i know jac. my own reasons are pretty complex for how i ended up here. and now, as dr. phil would say - it's become such a habit i don't know how to break free of it

9:22 pm
