Hi Groovy

hi autumn! How are YOU?

Just popped back. So sorry you're not healing quickly, mrp. How does a bone stimulator work?

5:37 am

hi hydra

5:37 am

Hello ardilla :)

hydra, it sits on the outside of my arm... wrapped around it, for 10 hours a day. it stimulates the growth of bone

5:38 am

Is it ultrasound, or what?

through electro magnetic blah blah blah...

does it sound like I am over this yet?? LOL

5:39 am

Oh, I see! My sister, who has had many broken bones, swears by magnetic healing. Let's all send mrp a big surge of healing energy!

5:41 am

*sends bushel of healing energy via monkeys to mrp*

poor hydra's sister!!

thanks girls :)

5:41 am

hydra, is she better now?

mrp how is the new job going?

5:42 am

It's the life she leads, mrp. Mountaineering and horse riding. She got kicked in the face, jaw broken in 3 places, wired up and had to eat Xmas dinner liquidised thru a straw! Now she's off to walk Scotland coast to coast. 22 miles per day.

5:43 am

wow!!!

is she insane! ??? or she is extremely well!! wow indeed!

she sounds like quite an adverturer hydra

5:44 am

My most miles in a day was 16, back in 1976!!!! Yes, she is, Nono. They made a TV film about her in Russia, as she spent several days in the mountains with yak herders, first woman ever to climb those mountains.

new job is good thanks! i have been upgraded to supervisor/manager etc etc of one of my jobs. the other job... increase in hours and happiness

5:46 am

hi flask is + o + med measurement

i look like a borg (if you know star trek) but people just don't see it anymore.

5:46 am

hi angel

5:47 am

{{flaskkkk}}

5:47 am

5:50 am

ty..ty

congrats Flask!

congrats to finishers!

has anyone one seen drgod?

i havent lately mrp

5:53 am

no mrp

5:54 am

MrP - Lickety asked this a while ago (a couple of weeks?). I'd had a mail from him (Dr_G)4 days before that. Nothing since, though.

he seems to have disappeared... I wonder if he has given away/sold his business on

5:54 am

Maybe he's on holiday or busy on other projects?

5:55 am

jac, hubby got held up by gunpoint last night for toilet rolls

5:56 am

LIL - Omigod!

what ???

5:56 am

he's fine, thank god

oh my Lilli what a scary thing to have happen

5:58 am

the police woke him up at 1am as his curtain had been slashed and they had stolen a few and then after he went back to sleep they woke him up and threatened him and took some more....not really worth prison time for 300 toilet rolls

5:58 am

the helicopters and police with guns arrived but no luck

5:58 am

i'm back hi jac wtg flask what a relief, lilli no i haven't seen drgod

5:59 am

Can hardly believe they think it was worth all that for toilet rolls! My Other Half (also a lorry driver) just asked if they were 'Triple Velvet'.

5:59 am

and he was in secure parking with other lorries

5:59 am

andrex

5:59 am

Beggars belief, Lil.

6:00 am

what's triple velvet? what's a lorry?

my account has been scavanged of money by epigroove... I am getting it investigated, but drgod won't reply to emails. I assume something has happened and unfortunately, no contact is not good for morale

6:00 am

he's been gassed before and held up with knives but never guns...its really frightening....

6:01 am

a lorry is a truck and triple velvet is a type of toilet roll ardilla

6:02 am

Lil - My Other Half just said, 'It just go4 to show that they don't give a sh*t what they pinch these days.'

6:02 am

ty for the clarification, lilli do4 he like the job despite the risks?

6:03 am

yes ardilla, he does

6:03 am

lol jac.....i suppose its easier to get rid of than electrical things

6:04 am

i don't think i like him doing it anymore

mrp, epigroove is who we pay to to go pro isnt it?

6:05 am

Lil - P says that everytime he's stopped on a lorry park he's had his curtain slashed.

6:06 am

have you suggested he try a safer job? money is nice but isn't worth a life

6:06 am

which Babbler was posting the Daily icons in her profile??

6:06 am

Angel - 'Babbler'.

6:06 am

he's always done it ardilla and is still happy doing it

6:08 am

thanks, Jacs. thought I was losing my mind...

6:08 am

if he's empty he always leaves the doors open jac so they can see he has nowt to pinch, but he doesn't always get his curtains slashed

6:09 am

the guy he shares his lorry with found a grenade in a sack of spuds the other week, it was from the 2nd world war, police and bomb disposal called out and loads of factories shut down for a while....not a lucky lorry it seems....

6:09 am

wow

6:10 am

is DrG male/female?

6:11 am

male flask

6:11 am

Lil - P does the same. He's found it safer in laybys by busy roads, though.

6:11 am

male with a beard

6:11 am

Flask - Dr_G's a male, Jamie Tibbetts.

6:12 am

he normally does jac but because he had this load on he thought it better to park in secure parking, he was going to park in the town

6:12 am

of course...thats right! And what role does he play in babble?

6:12 am

hi all...do I need a purple crayon or no?

6:12 am

was it this country Lill?

6:12 am

yes flask

6:13 am

hi carlee i like the crayon

6:13 am

can't remember where now

6:13 am

ardilla - That's not his real pic! That's ZZ Top's Frank Beard.

6:13 am

oh oh....now..do I start..or no?

6:13 am

up north somewhere

6:13 am

what Scotland??

6:14 am

ohh *blushes* i thought it looks familiar...lol

6:14 am

lol...Ardilla..lol

6:14 am

LOL, aardilla.

6:14 am

easy mistake!

hi carlee, the grid is not too bad today, go ahead and get started

6:15 am

no, further down, he did say where, but i can't remember now....you know what my memory is like, i forget my own name sometimes....

6:15 am

so can his disappearance affect Babble?

6:15 am

LOL ardilla

6:15 am

ok..diving in

6:15 am

don't you worry about it betty, dear....lol

6:16 am

i'm getting called hazel by the landscapers....

6:16 am

LOL

6:16 am

Flask - we won't know that he has disappeared. MrP's concerned that he hasn't replied to urgnt emails, but he could be on holiday. Best not to jump to conclusions.

6:17 am

yah, under 100!

6:17 am

am not jumping to any conclusions Jac....am just being interested........

6:17 am

go ardilla!!

6:27 am

hi sprite

6:28 am

is the grid any fun today?

6:28 am

Flask - The remark was addressed generally but had your name at the start because you were the last person to mention it. I could just have easily addressed it to Mr.P or one or two others. I'm sorry you're feeling prickly. I had no intention of making it worse.

6:28 am

Hi Sprite.

6:28 am

yah halfway done! going to list...bbs

6:29 am

Hello sprite

6:31 am

so far this grid seems to be fun, lol. Though I haven't been able to spot any biggies yet, but I am reasonably sure I will... in time...

Hi Dorens....how are you....and how is Phoebe?

6:32 am

Hello Dorens

6:32 am

Flask - I'm not sitting here all the time. I'm in and out and read log as I go. Not getting into an spat about this when all I was trying to do was keep things calm. Taking a break now to go and do some gardening.

6:33 am

6:33 am

Phoebe is fabulous... I was there last weekend and had a great time. jac, enjoy the gardening... i know you aren't about spats

6:49 am

te 6 and 7 -my 1st 2 words - thanks

6:49 am

my day is off to an interesting start, cannot find my eye glasses

6:49 am

hi kje

6:49 am

morning k

6:49 am

hi peri

6:49 am

ohoh peri. Just to be certain... they are not on your nose?

6:49 am

and p

6:49 am

yay kje!

6:50 am

oh peri - I hadn't looked until you said that - thankfully mine are on the floor - LOL

6:51 am

not on my nose :-) this happens often but I always find them

6:51 am

just realized I haven't changed my icon - BBS

6:52 am

I have been without my glasses for almost a week once. Found them in the fridge (seriously). Afterwards realised I had them in my hand when the phone rang, put them down, answered phone and forgot. Must have 'seen' the things many times when in the fridge, but since I wasn't looking for them there, didn't notice.

6:53 am

just checked the fridge and the freezer, no luck :(

6:53 am

lol sprite... i have done similar things

6:53 am

aw, too bad :( Sinks, couch, ridges, top of cupboards, inside cupboards...

6:54 am

will continue to look, have a funeral to go to later today

6:54 am

made me feel real stupid, Dorens, when I finally found them, lol.

6:54 am

oh dear,, peri. Someone very close?

6:55 am

on of my Aunts, just found out last night, she was 93 and had cancer. She had hospice so she was kept comfortable

6:55 am

i once put a carton of milk away, but in the cupboard, not the refrigerator....felt awfully stupid when I found it, and actually kind of scared

6:57 am

am sorry for your loss, peri, though perhaps it really was her time to go?

6:57 am

does sound like it... living past 93 doesn't appeal to me

6:57 am

thanks sprite, spoke with the daughter she lived with yesterday and she seemed to be coping okay

6:57 am

lol, Dorens, I can imagine. But I think it has more to do with being distracted than with losing memory.

6:58 am

i'd like to think so sprite

6:58 am

If she was enabled by the hospice to die with dignity and comfort, it sounds like a good way to go.

6:59 am

don't want to contemplate the other options, Dorens, lol ;)

6:59 am

she was sprite

6:59 am

she had family around her at the very end

7:00 am

a salute to hospices. Seriously.

7:00 am

and before of course

7:01 am

help with the 7's please

7:01 am

Hello all

7:01 am

my father lived with me when he had terminal ca... and we had hospice here... definitely the best way... he never went back to the hospital, died here relatively peacefully.

7:02 am

brb

7:02 am

to be allowed to die with dignity and surrounded by love is the way I hope to go, if my time comes.

7:02 am

hi Denny

7:03 am

hi denny......ye sprite, it is definitely the way, and there is no IF about it

7:03 am

oh darn, I got that wrong again, didn't I? Should have said WHEN my time comes?

7:04 am

unfortunately many doctors wait too long to place a patient on hospice but hopefully this is changing

7:04 am

hopefully still too far in the future for either of us to contemplate peri

7:05 am

my stomach is rumblng... going for breakfast... see you later

7:05 am

enjoy, Dorens

7:05 am

any found the 7's?

7:05 am

i'm back

7:05 am

wb ardilla

7:05 am

I wish there was a device that would beep that I could place on my glasses, there probably is, if not I must invent it

7:06 am

peri: do7 plural compound, what you should not do with a book you loan from me...

7:06 am

aren't there keyrings that answer when you whistle, peri? Something like that might work :)

7:06 am

or what canines listen with...lilli's clue

7:07 am

if anyone recalls the babble icon calendar I used to have on the resource guide, it's on it's way back. I found a cool new resource for doing it for free.

7:07 am

do7 - what a canine listens with

7:07 am

is + o + med measuremt for is7

7:07 am

I think so sprite, I saw in a catalog an object that you can place your glasses on ( a ceramic nose), tacky but more visible

7:07 am

thanks ardilla

7:07 am

got the do7 thanks

7:08 am

wtg Angel!

7:08 am

7:10 am

Finally found my last G, peri, go6. Sometimes I can be so blind.

7:22 am

ick...hate that word...

7:23 am

testing

7:23 am

*giggles* I love it, ardilla, but maybe that is because in dutch it is a common word, in the normal spelling. We use it for things you keep your pens and pencils in too.

7:23 am

how is the water, kje?

7:24 am

had to google needle case then use dictionary.com to find alt spelling

7:25 am

but now you will remember forever, ardilla ;)

8:30 am

... today's Babbleland history lesson"

8:31 am

good morning!

8:31 am

lol

8:31 am

i did not even need to change my icon pic for today's theme: little critters

8:31 am

hiya there lill* !

8:32 am

hi monkey!

8:32 am

Hey, Monkey! Isn't it frogs today.

8:32 am

frogs are today's theme monkey !!

8:33 am

what? oh dang, i looked at tomorrow's theme

8:33 am

crap

8:33 am

pretend my monkey is a frog

8:33 am

you're ahead of your time lill* !!

8:34 am

Looks like a frog to me.

8:34 am

2 to go - stomach growling...BRB

8:34 am

novice question - where do you find out the theme?

8:34 am

a very hairy frog

8:34 am

Of course, I do not have my eyes in yet this morning...

8:34 am

the easy was is to click on montreal's icon pic

8:34 am

look up BAbbler's profile

8:34 am

sorry, *easy WAY

8:35 am

also, there is a link you can click on in Lickety's Babble Clues that tells the icon theme schedule

8:35 am

tx lill* but many themes do not interest me... so i may not have them in my little list...

8:36 am

np, Monty... btw what happened to the Canadians last night?

8:36 am

they outplayed philly but didn't get the bounces - it's okay, some games againt Boston, it was the other way around...

8:37 am

i was watching for a while and it looked like the habs might come back and beat philly

8:38 am

my team, the RedWings won and lead their series, 2-0 YAY

8:38 am

yep...but it wasn't to be... "sigh" - yes Detroit looks awesome this year...especially now with the Ducks gone...

8:39 am

oh yes! thank goodness for that! No Pronger to deal with...

8:40 am

am sure many teams saw the elimination of the ducks with a big sigh of relief...

8:40 am

oa 5/12?

8:41 am

am looking for the third Y word... i have the 365 days + plural

8:41 am

paddled = oa 5

8:41 am

oa - rowed

8:41 am

ye 4/6 abominable snowman

8:41 am

ye - abominable snowman

8:41 am

ye4 himalayan man-beast

8:41 am

past tense of implements used to row a boat, thehoffs

8:41 am

last y - abmonidable (sp?) snowman

8:41 am

snap snap - lol !

8:41 am

8:41 am

oh my lord, FISH me

8:42 am

*throwing gravlox at monkey*

8:49 am

8:53 am

8:53 am

8:54 am

: )

8:55 am

what is the male dummy's name?

8:55 am

"george george are you OK?"

ok, i asked this yesterday, but i have to go to a fancy dress party, dressed as a favourite film, any ideas?

8:56 am

kodak

8:56 am

LA confidential perhaps ?

8:56 am

fuji

8:56 am

monkey!!!

8:56 am

how about red dress, a la Pretty Woman

then i could pretend it's george clooney and put my lips on his...oooooh

red dress is good, but are you saying i'm like a prostitute?? LOL!

8:57 am

or as the Catwoman in Batman ?

8:57 am

how about rene russo in the thomas crown affair

I've not watced LA Confidential, how do you represent it?

8:57 am

no Annie! of course not!

8:58 am

How about midnight blue dress and the giant pendant, a la Titanic ????

I like cat woman idea...

8:58 am

red dress, strapless but sophisticated...

ha ha lil, just joking!!!

8:59 am

any actress you especially resemble?

Titanic - I could aso lean forward all evening arms outstretched. All brill ideas....

Now sophisticated is good....

can't think of anyone kje, i'm auburn, normal size

9:00 am

The Flying Nun...The Bride of Frankenstein...

9:00 am

Annie, at the Oscars ceremony during the year Titanic was up for awards, one of the actresses carried a handbag that was a tiny replica of the Titanic ship!

9:00 am

How about the film that came out a couple of years ago "Chocolate"? Afternoon all

someone suggested annie get your gun yesterday - that would be cool as would be able to go as i am!

9:01 am

75 left - time for a break - happy babbling all - "POOF" (and good luck with your choice Annie O)

9:01 am

bye montreal

9:01 am

bride of frank....that sounds very gothic

9:01 am

hi and bye FM - "ACTUAL POOF"

May 23rd lil

9:01 am

Bye monty

9:01 am

I still like going as an actual roll of film

bye montreal

9:02 am

oh, plenty of time to prepare! .... kje, I like that idea too LOL

how do i do that kje?

And need ideas for the man...he's shy so something subtle!

I could just write kodak on my forehead

9:03 am

oh our condo stinks to high heaven now, i left a pan of potatoes boiling and forgot them, and they boiled dry and then burned

chocolat is good FM

that sounds like my cooking lil LOL

9:04 am

it's the second time I've done it... you'd think i would learn to set a timer after the first mishap

9:04 am

sorry - my chat forze

9:05 am

anyone who's interested: click on my icon and then on the first flickr pic to see my friend Brenda and me at her wedding yesterday :)

9:06 am

a tube of camera film would be easiest annie, but you could also use real film to dress up an outfit, winding it around stylishly

9:06 am

and there it goes again

9:06 am

here's another idea, Annie... if you choose the Titanic idea, you could also carry a replica of the Oscar statuette

cor, you're all coming up with brill ideas...really pleased i asked thank you

9:08 am

You could go as Juno, punk clothes and a pillow under your shirt!

9:08 am

great pic! monkey...and so springy looking

9:09 am

cor blimey LOL I had forgotten that expression... remember saying it when i lived in England for 4 years as a kid :)

9:09 am

kje: it was sunny and 78 degrees, absolutely perfect weather for an outdoor botanical garden wedding

lovely pic lil

9:09 am

lil - just checked out flickr - lovely pic! Don't you look glam!

9:09 am

TY all!

9:10 am

we took another pic with my sunglasses OFF, but the bride closed her eyes

is juno a film christini?

9:10 am

gonna go - too much lag on my babble to enjoy it - BBL

9:10 am

byeeeeeeeeeee kje, hurry back

byyyeeee kje

9:10 am

yes Annie, Juno is a film about a young teenage girl who becomes preggers

9:10 am

Yes, just this past year and the acress who played her was nominated for an oscar

9:10 am

bye kje

just looked it up christini - good idea, and would fit in with being an ex-midwife!

9:12 am

great little flick, rent it so you can see what a hoot she is!

will do...love to dress as a punk too!

9:16 am

weat

9:16 am

I am back. Hi everyone.

9:16 am

Hey, Scrabbs!

9:16 am

Aw, Christini, I took the bait and got denied.

9:16 am

oops, sorry, glad it wasn't a real word

hi scrabbs

9:18 am

loved Juno!!

9:19 am

I want to see Juno--I think it is on my Blockbuster queue.

9:20 am

Sadly I see far too many pregnant teenage girls in my practice. Two weeks ago I saw a 15 yr old girl and her 1 yr old daughter--both for check-ups.

9:20 am

Then of course (speaking of oscars) there would be Edith Piaf but I don't know how you'd pull that off.

not with my singing anyway christini...!!

9:21 am

Gosh, it's really sad that the first one didn't sort of teach her a lesson. I know, I had some qualms about the fact that such a delightful little movie was about something we really don't want to see happen.

i could cause controversy at the party!

9:22 am

hello everyone in Babbleland

heloooooo pab

nice frog

9:22 am

cleopatra was cool or hot depending on how you speak!!

10:04 am

or maybe I should say dream world -- lol

10:04 am

but, you always do that in fiction

10:04 am

that's the great thing about books, bringing you experiences you wouldn't otherwise have, letting you sympathize with people who go through stuff you don't

10:05 am

wish I had more time on yesterday's grid...never made it

11:44 am

OS please

11:44 am

would Dr. God allow do-overs?????? lol

11:44 am

I never made it to the website. Was unable to babble

11:44 am

just clued mlf look below

11:44 am

os 5/10 is o+double consonant plus 2 vowels MLFAN17

11:45 am

sounds like the USSR

11:45 am

regular God doesn't allow do-overs, so i doubt Dr. God would either...

11:45 am

got it ty

11:45 am

LOL rurucoks! Even if he allowed do-overs, I'd never catch up with the amount of grids that I have missed

11:46 am

I asked for a do-over when I fell and broke my ankle...didn't work

11:46 am

LOL hurshy!That's a very good point! I agree w/you!

11:46 am

actually Hursh regular god does allow do-overs I have been told..

11:47 am

no... in my experience he allows make-it-right, but not do-over

11:47 am

yep you are right

11:48 am

brand new lives...I guess that could be a do-over

11:48 am

I guess it depends on what kind of do-overs you are talking about. Can't do over a broken ankle, but can do-over a relationship or recount in an election, etc.

11:48 am

or living a better one

11:48 am

you really can't do-over in a relationship, either, i dont think. i cheated on my husband. we're working things out, but, i can't go back and not have done that.

11:49 am

that's why i think there is a big difference between a do-over and changing your future.

11:50 am

Well then in your case hurshy it'd be making it better

11:50 am

I wrote a poem called "Do Over" when recouperating - would do anything to be able to go back and not make the decision to take the short cut off the side of the proch this time : )

11:50 am

wow

11:51 am

yes, kje, i think there is nothing worse than that horrid feeling when you realize time just won't go backwards, even if the thing you want to change is so little, and would make such a big difference

11:51 am

hurshy, you're very luck to have someone who is still willing to work it out with you. I don't know if I could work things out with my husband if he cheated on me

11:52 am

It depends on the circumstances and the reason for the affair I guess. Maybe U had good reason to cheat

11:52 am

I think it takes a big person to stay in and work it out.

11:52 am

i always feel that it is very wrong, somehow, when i'm away from home, and realize i forgot something i wanted to bring with me, and i know exactly where it is, and yet there is NOTHING i can do about it!!

11:53 am

Hiya, everyone!!!!!

11:53 am

Hi movieman! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

11:53 am

I'm not sure what you mean by your last past hurshy.

11:54 am

Fine thanks, minver, you?

11:54 am

is7 please?

11:54 am

I am well. I am almost done. Waiting to finish til later.

11:54 am

is 7/32 is is plus vowel plus do 4/5 word Robo-bonobo

11:55 am

well, it's just, the frustratingness of not being able to rewind time, or transcend distances. it's like we have a small degree of omniscience, but no degree of omnipotence.

11:55 am

iso + do4/5 (medicine one)

11:55 am

is7 - is+vowel+ medical amount

11:55 am

Hello Robo-bonobo!How are you? Welcome to the grid

11:55 am

thank you!

11:55 am

that was my last word :)

11:55 am

but, the thing about not being able to fetch things from far away could just be me, with the trek fan thing, and the transporter...

11:55 am

Oh Wow! Very philosphical and very well said hurshy!

11:56 am

WOOHOO! Robo!

11:56 am

does anyone else need any clues before i go?

11:56 am

Congratulations Robo-bonobo on fireworks! Hooray!

11:56 am

Yahoo for Robo!!!

11:56 am

that is a nice name

11:57 am

robobonobo

11:57 am

Well I am almost done and waiting to finish until later

11:57 am

bonobos are interesting chimps

11:57 am

indeed they are

11:57 am

I'm going to take a break now. Be back later to finish

11:57 am

i wonder if my sister would mind if i nickname my nephew robobonobo

11:57 am

solve their conflicts by having sex

11:58 am

and relax by having sex

11:58 am

Domo arigato robo bonobo ..

11:58 am

and greet each other by having sex

11:58 am

I want to be reincarnated as a bonobo chimp

11:58 am

hmm, in that case, maybe she WOULD mind.

11:58 am

they are also bisexual

11:59 am

and sometimes cannabalistic

11:59 am

LOL hurshy

11:59 am

hmm, yes, i doubt she wants a nymphomaniacal cannibal for a son.

11:59 am

cannibalistic? that would be very very rare

12:00 pm

better not to risk it.

12:00 pm

they rarely eat meat at all

12:00 pm

check it out

12:00 pm

maybe I should amend that to carnivorous

12:00 pm

it's like when phoebe changed her name without knowing what a banana hammock was

12:01 pm

LOL

12:01 pm

who broke the news to her?

12:01 pm

LOL

12:01 pm

her husband, Crap Bag

12:01 pm

LOL

12:01 pm

all right, well good luck to all. i'm off.

12:02 pm

don't even WANT to know what their children's names would be

12:02 pm

bye bonobo

12:02 pm

they went back to regular names.

12:03 pm

but i still laugh when i think of mike telling that person, "if you have trouble remembering it, just think of a bag of crap"

12:04 pm

although, there are ACTUAL hammocks for ACTUAL bananas, too. i know cause i bought one for some friends as a wedding present.

12:06 pm

et5?

12:06 pm

needlecase needlecase needlecase

12:07 pm

(i always sing that to the tune of "figaro")

12:07 pm

I would imagine if everyone lived like those monkeys there would be too much sex at political rallies

12:08 pm

I only know an et4 for needlecase ..

12:08 pm

and on subways, no one would be able to get off the train

12:08 pm

i don't think there would be political rallies at all, people would be too drained

12:08 pm

anyone know the second ar 5?

12:08 pm

nuh-uh, you know an alt sp, i know you do!

12:08 pm

ar5 got up

12:09 pm

sounds the same torgone

12:09 pm

was the other one but I got it thanks

12:10 pm

et + very small

12:10 pm

if you aren't using lickety's babble expert, is dangerous to specify. i used to correct people when i knew they probably didn't mean what they said, but since expert, they usually DO.

12:10 pm

small in scottish

12:10 pm

or Irish

12:10 pm

SO 5/14 please anyone?

12:11 pm

pig call

12:11 pm

feh ..

12:11 pm

what feh? did you get it or not?

12:11 pm

didn't understand that clue from earlier hursh!!

12:11 pm

then change the first consonant Lind for a ha 5

12:11 pm

Yeah, goofball spelling ..

12:12 pm

it sounds like american chop su**

12:12 pm

Lindy - like chooped su** at chinese places - sounds the same

12:12 pm

snap husrh

12:12 pm

thanks guys got it!!

12:12 pm

or go*** candies

12:12 pm

:)

12:13 pm

what was that word the other day...

12:13 pm

what does the snap thing mean?

12:13 pm

oh yes, maguey! fab word!

12:13 pm

it's when two people have the same idea

12:13 pm

snap, that is. not maguey.

12:13 pm

i have no idea what is maguey but it sure is fun to say

12:14 pm

comes from the card game of snap ruru!

12:14 pm

someone use maguey in a sentence

12:14 pm

hello again - I come in always at just the right time - maguey is a plant, like agave

12:15 pm

mommer, lookit maguey hands! i stuck em in the honeypot!

12:15 pm

the maguey plant grows in Mexico

12:15 pm

do they make tequilla from it?

12:15 pm

wb jbv

12:15 pm

and it's pronounce ma - GWAY

12:15 pm

lol hursh

12:15 pm

or ma -GAY

12:15 pm

ma-GWAY is so much less fun than muh-GOO-ee

12:15 pm

dude this tequila is like major maguey

12:16 pm

i think maguey needs to become a word with multiple meanings and pronunciations. like wind.

12:16 pm

absolutely I agree

12:16 pm

maguey 1. n Mexican plant 2. adj in the manner of Mr. Magoo

12:16 pm

ruru - have you read about the upcoming shortage of tequila?

12:17 pm

could be a synonym for myopic - like Mr. Magoo

12:17 pm

snap, hursh!

12:17 pm

why are the Stones on tour again?

12:17 pm

due to Mexican farmers tearing out their agave plants (which take 7 years or more to mature) in favor of planting corn for biofuel

12:17 pm

Seein' as how this is a maguey 45, the largest hand gun made ..

12:17 pm

we're like rice krispies today

12:18 pm

?

12:18 pm

cracklng and snapping

12:18 pm

not popping I hope

12:18 pm

don't forget POP!

12:18 pm

you haven't got any bubblewrap?

12:18 pm

Maguey sounds like a new Philipine car line

12:19 pm

I just bought a 4 cyclinder Maguey

12:19 pm

this is why the dictionary game is so fun

12:19 pm

12:32 pm

12:33 pm

agreed, stid - I haven't gone to the list yet - have 24 left to find, maybe this will be the day I do it without the list

12:34 pm

but, when it gets to the point that I am constantly bothering everyone with requests for clues, then I know I need lickety!

12:34 pm

1 to go!

12:34 pm

I think I will go to the list now, because I just can't see how words can be made from some of the tiles! LOL

I think it's list time for me - I have no idea what I am looking for

12:48 pm

i think you have done very well to get that far without the list jbv!!

12:48 pm

some of the words are obvious once you get the list.

12:48 pm

i know, stid, that's the beauty of lickety's list - but just once I would like to say I did it on my own

12:49 pm

plenty of other days for that jbv!!

12:49 pm

is7 appears too difficult for me to monkey, however

12:50 pm

can't believe oreo isn't in there...shouldn't that be a houshold word by now like aspirin?

12:50 pm

unfortunately, that is still a proper noun, sharon!

12:50 pm

so I gathered

12:51 pm

gotta go walk the dog, may be back later

I'm sure I've spent time living in a howdy state at some point

1:13 pm

THX kje. I probably won't get a chance to see her until at least August....maybe November.

1:23 pm

she really is gorgeous, autumn -- is she jammy-boy's baby?

1:23 pm

oh, that is too long to wait!

1:24 pm

that is sad autumn

No. She's my step-son's daughter (and not related to jammy-boy at all)

1:24 pm

oh, I see. still, she's lovely. is her mother doing well?

1:25 pm

(which reminds me I need to check in with my friend who had a baby beginning of the month)

all are fine. Mom is suffering from the normal aches, pains and ups & downs associated with childbirth. He is my step-son from a previous relationship but shares the same last name as my current hubby.

1:27 pm

re5/14 please

1:28 pm

I am glad they are all well, and that you maintain your relationship with your step-son. {{{{{hugs}}}}

1:28 pm

re 5/14: add a vowel before the last letter of the previous 4

1:29 pm

2:16 pm

er 4/4 - god of love

2:17 pm

PENS WIN

3:40 pm

3:41 pm

yep yep...they're up 2-0

3:41 pm

would love a conference final between the habs and the pens...

3:41 pm

Hamilton came 3rd!!!

3:41 pm

lol mo !

3:41 pm

FIGHT ON THE ICE

3:42 pm

is this live nutty ?

3:42 pm

he,he,he!

3:42 pm

after the game ends...how do you punish that?

3:42 pm

ban both teams from series - give cup to habs !!

3:43 pm

They should not be allowed to play in next game then.

3:43 pm

ew monty...that's just wrong

3:43 pm

hockey would be interesting except for the fighting...

3:43 pm

yep, pens just beat the rangers, fleury got the shut out

3:43 pm

Hate it when they fight in hockey or any other sport

3:44 pm

hockey IS intersting despite the fighting ! - but they should punish fighting more severely...

3:44 pm

i don't mind them fighting...heck people box, its nearly the same

3:45 pm

fighting is penalized severly, there's nothing weak about a 5 minute penalty

3:45 pm

hello all

3:45 pm

like olympic hockey where they don' allow so much fighting

3:45 pm

I don't like boxing either. I think it is a stupid sport.

3:45 pm

Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

3:45 pm

its supposed to be a sport... not very"sporty" I say

3:45 pm

i would give the instigator an extra 5 min for example... - hiya there jill !

3:45 pm

hi jilli - cute icon

3:45 pm

i am confused

3:46 pm

hi jilli.

3:46 pm

(aside: my dad always used to say, "i went to a fight and a hockey game broke out")

3:46 pm

hi and join the club hursh !

3:47 pm

I think hockey should be hockey and not ice boxing, which could be another sport for those who enjoy such behaviour

hi Jilli!

3:47 pm

it's an old one hursh...

3:47 pm

the penguins haven't lost a play off game yet

3:47 pm

Hi there, Jilli, good to see you. But I miss Piglet, who cheered my last couple of games just by being there

3:47 pm

LOL jilli

3:47 pm

brb

3:47 pm

i am reading all these blog posts and things online that say that google maps is supposed to tell you driving time at rush hour in addition to not-rush-hour, but it isn't doing it for me for route 95 in connecticut, which i know is a nightmare, but i want to know just how MUCH of a nightmare.

3:48 pm

hi hetty !

3:48 pm

hi hetty! Long time! How are things going?

3:48 pm

Hello hetty! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

3:48 pm

isn't that kind of like asking how pregnant?

3:48 pm

hello hetty.

3:48 pm

half-pregnant ???

3:49 pm

hi montreal -- your frog is even tinier than mine, I think!

3:49 pm

well, yes, but there are answers to both

3:50 pm

how much of a nightmare...half a nightmare?

3:50 pm

does it take 50% longer at rush hour, or twice as long, or three times as long? are you 5 weeks pregnant or 5 months?

3:50 pm

mo -- who's that in your icon?

3:50 pm

monte - did you ever answer my question re: whether that is a frog you found?

3:50 pm

both our frogs are really small jill...

3:51 pm

Terry Wogan, jilli.

3:51 pm

I think that frogs has already been an icon theme b4.

3:51 pm

I guess I'll have to google Terry Wogan -- sorry about my ignorance

3:52 pm

sorry, missed your question kje - it is a frog on my icon pic but it's not me who's holding it...it's a Costa-Rican frog...

3:52 pm

then I missed it - so glad it is a repeat - they are all cool icons so far

3:52 pm

Min, I seem to remember that too

3:52 pm

of course - I recognize the accent now that you mention it

3:52 pm

lol

3:52 pm

he is a radio2 presenter here in the UK.

3:53 pm

kje -- nice poem today -- again

3:53 pm

so... does anyone know how to get the google maps rush hour driving time feature to work? :) :) :)

3:53 pm

I tried to say how good it was to be back among you all, but the message didn't make it. So I say it again!

3:53 pm

not I, hurshy -- rush hour here is about 4 cars in a row

3:54 pm

thanks jilli

3:54 pm

am leery of the timing on those online maps hursh... only interested in the mileage...

3:54 pm

I googled Terry Wogan. He's a radio&tv broadcaster who has worked for the British Broadcasting Corp in the UK for most of his career. Just some information.

3:54 pm

hetty, it's good to have you back and I hope you'll stick around more often now

3:54 pm

well, welcome back Hetty !!

3:54 pm

mileage is not just mileage. if you sit in traffic, you use more gas.

3:55 pm

welcome,welcome,welcome hetty.

I have to go now and do some background work at the library, then help a sight-impaired friend read some stuff. I hope to have time for my last 28 after that

3:56 pm

3:56 pm

take care jill - bye

3:56 pm

bye jilli... see you soon.

3:56 pm

but knowing before hand how bad it will be is like anticipating something bad - better off just to go out there and rip the band aid off

3:56 pm

ttfn all xoxo

3:57 pm

It's the constant stop & go in traffic that uses more gas. I've been off for a week and have to go back to it tomorrow, YUCK!I hate sitting in traffic.Pet peeve

3:57 pm

bye jilli

6:43 pm

YAYAYAYAY, girlfriday

6:43 pm

We have a winner!

6:43 pm

why would you want a heart attack hursh ?

6:44 pm

no. if it's something that might kill me quickly, i certainly don't want to have it checked!

6:44 pm

well, then i would die, and it wouldn't be my fault.

6:45 pm

I have had flutters from regular sudafed....weird feeling....

6:45 pm

huh ?

6:45 pm

most of the time i don't want to be alive. but i can't commit suicide, cause God might be mad.

6:46 pm

Hursh - this isn't something to joke about - if you truly feel that way, please get help

6:46 pm

too risky.

6:46 pm

please dont say things like that hursh !

6:46 pm

i am not joking. i mean, i'm joking about something true. i have got help, but, it doesn't really help.

6:47 pm

i mean it helps SOME, but, not enough to make me feel like life is really worthwhile.

6:47 pm

Then it isn't the right help - get a good psychiatrist and get appropriate treatment

6:47 pm

life is ALWAYS worthwhile hursh....

6:47 pm

i did, and i'm on antidepressants. i'm not depressed, i just don't see much point in life. not worth the hassles.

6:48 pm

can anyone clue my last S - so 5/14

6:48 pm

pig call

6:48 pm

ahhh

6:48 pm

thanks Hurshy

os 5/10 pls

6:49 pm

((((Hursh)))))) --you are worthwhile, and your being alive is worthwhile. Please seek another therapist. Someone who can help you wade through this. When I did, I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel but I didn't much care. My therapist helped me to care. And, i did not and do not take meds....

6:49 pm

Yes?

6:49 pm

((((((((((((((hursh)))))))))))))))))))

6:49 pm

well done pam !

6:49 pm

((((Hursh))))

6:49 pm

just think of me as a photographic negative. things that are a given for other people are the opposite for me. "why don't you want kids?" they say, and i say, "why do you want kids?" "life is worthwhile", you say, "why?", i say.

6:50 pm

it's not done, aussie. Every day is a work in progress...

6:50 pm

think of the difference you make to other peoples lives hursh, you make a difference to me....

6:50 pm

ah, I see pam

6:51 pm

(((pam)))

6:51 pm

Is that because you want to be contrary, hursh, or because you need to question everyone? How about not asking why once in a while and saying ok. Even though you don't want to.

6:51 pm

There are lots of people who are better off because you're here, hursh ..

os 5/10 plzzz

6:51 pm

thanks, aussie and kje.

6:51 pm

it's not something you guys need to WORRY about. it's not the pleasantest way to be, but, i can't help it.

6:52 pm

os 5/10 is o plus double consonant plus 2 vowels chalk

6:52 pm

At least one that I know of ..

6:52 pm

I over processed my life, wrote and re-wrote in my journal, asked incessant questions. Then, I needed to start thinking less and doing more.

6:52 pm

The so 5/14 word rhymes with ho 5/16 word Jindigo.

6:52 pm

I am not WORRIED, per se hursh. But it saddens me. While life isn't always cheery, and/or happy, it can be fun....

6:53 pm

i can live with being philosophically challenged. i mean, i have to. and if it goes away somehow, that will be great. but therapy is not, i don't think, the way for me to find meaning in life.

6:53 pm

life hasn't been chrrey for me all the time, but I work my way through things.....

6:53 pm

*cheery*

6:54 pm

Hurshy - passive suicidal thoughts are still suicidal thoughts and signify that you are not getting adequate treatment - medication or otherwise. And you CAn help it....there ARE things you can do - it IS up to you to seek out the care you need

6:54 pm

In the end it is a choice to get help

6:54 pm

I care if you are here hursh....

6:55 pm

thanks. sorry, i didn't mean to bring that up. sorry.

omg still not happening cant get the os at all

6:56 pm

6:56 pm

its ok hursh, if you need an ear for an hour, I am always here *by email, by facebook, or any way you need to chat*

6:56 pm

er5 wear away, like the sea at the sh5

os 5 os & ***mese cat chalkncheese

6:56 pm

ahhh

6:56 pm

os 5/10:o plus double snake letter plus 2 vowels chalk

6:56 pm

thanks Hurshy

6:57 pm

don't apologize. I just hope that you find a few things that bring you unquaified joy, that you accept them, are grateful for them, that you don't question them or whether you are worthy of them, and then build on them...

6:57 pm

I am deeply concerned for the children

It speaks to ma on MANY levels and layers, babbler... the war, the Middle East, abused children here and abroad., etc....

br, what does you ricon represent? sorry my old pc is tempermental tonight

7:35 pm

WOOHOO for Jindigo and Minver!!!

7:37 pm

the icon shows a child that has injured with the caption: Am I free yet?

7:37 pm

thanks all

7:37 pm

So is everybody finished now or are clues still needed

makes me think of the FLDS kids. i think taking them was dead wrong.

7:38 pm

now i have to go and fold all that laundry i have piled up. I wish you all a wonderfull evening and peaceful sleep. : )

night jind

7:38 pm

Goodbye Jindigo! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log

7:38 pm

mixed feelings on that TO - how it's been handled since then has been bad - but when several girls from the ranch call and c/o abuse, what are they to do?

7:38 pm

Thanks Min - see tomorrow!

7:38 pm

night, jind

7:39 pm

* Poof *

7:39 pm

nite Pam

7:39 pm

Poof for real!

perhaps take the girsl of a certain age?

7:39 pm

it was a dmaned if they did damned if they didn't situation, I think

7:40 pm

how goes it my Babble homies?

7:40 pm

CPS's policy is to remove all children from the home- wherever the abuse occurs, so they were not treated any differently

7:40 pm

i agree, kje... after short creek in '53, that sect has gone unmonitored with rampant abuse... now, the pendulum swung in the opposite direction... I feel for the mothers and children, but abhor the whole thing...

7:41 pm

Krakauer's Under the Banner of Heaven was an eye-opener about these fundamentalist Mormons...

it's just that the system is so broken. these kids can never go back once started on that path.

7:41 pm

I do think the state could be doing a better job of reuniting families and finding alternative living situations... that has not been acceptabel

7:42 pm

i agree, kje

7:42 pm

I don't know what will become of the whole community, but the men have claimed they were unaware of the laws regarding marriageable age.... GRRRRRRRR

7:43 pm

where have these men been living...under a rock?

pam, did that documentaary tell abut the lost boys?

7:44 pm

what documentary? DO you mean krakauer's book? yes, he did talk about the boys being kicked out as they were competition for the older men,,,ugh

7:44 pm

i saw the "lost boys" on the TODAY show. made me think about what kind of education these kids were getting.

7:44 pm

the ones the elders kicked out to the streets because they feared competition

7:45 pm

I always think of the lost boys as being the sudanese boys.. I met one--he has beenliving with an acquaintance's family...

7:45 pm

the men and elders need to be held accountable

7:45 pm

well, less rivalry for the girls, polygomy sucks up all the available prospects.

7:46 pm

Absolutely, babbler. Absof'inlutely.

7:46 pm

go BR!

it is cruel to cast them out without any way to do for themselves.

7:46 pm

the women and children are brainwashed and preyed upon

7:47 pm

rather enigmatic, prey and pray

7:47 pm

It is an inbred society, and I am not saying that to be "funny" or judgemental, I mean it literally...

br, i think a strong debater culd make the case that all religion does that. so what to do? all are guarenteed freedom of religion.

7:47 pm

indeed, br, indeed...

7:48 pm

it is scary that it's been going on so long and noone has done anything about it. Saw a special on it several years ago!!

7:48 pm

As a Texan I can tell you the whole thing is very disturbing

7:48 pm

guaranteed freedom of religion, but polygomy is breaking a federal law.

7:48 pm

but that guarantee does not supercede the laws and the FLDS violated law after law

7:49 pm

but it's more than polygamy - one could argue an adult woman can choose to be involved in that relationship - they got in trouble for marrying off under age girls

7:49 pm

The polygomists aren't just in Texas or even Utah. they are in lots of little pockets throughout the country.

has anyone ssen or heard the uproar when this was last done, in 1953? the public outcry led to the release of the women and children back to the community.

7:50 pm

they need to prosecute the men and leave the women and children alone

7:50 pm

and who will take care of the women and children?

7:51 pm

Yes, that was short creek, what i was referring to earlier, TO. And the hue and cry resulted in a hands' off policy that led to 40 years of rape, polygamy, and child abuse...

7:51 pm

there are about 24000 organizations claiming to be christian religions in the US ... anyone group can organize a religion to get tax exempt status

if they are not legally married, can they be polygamists?

7:52 pm

You know, lbd, part of me thinks the state is somewhat culpable in this, they knew and never intervened, so maybe an initial government assistance could happen. maybe... I don't know... I just know that if any more girls are raped, the blood is on all of their hands...

7:52 pm

OK - just spent over 20 minutes looking for a paper I wanted to cite - have a new appreciation for Angelsong's drive to get organized!!!

7:52 pm

TO, where did you hear they weren't legally married?

7:53 pm

LOL, kje

7:53 pm

maybe not but they may be guilty of having underage sex polygamist or not

7:53 pm

statutory rape at the minimum.

wondering how they can be. there are so many news reports, it is hard to know what is truye and what isn't.

7:53 pm

bigamy is still a crime

7:53 pm

they are married under FLDS and consider themselves wives... that's enough for me...

7:54 pm

common law (which i know is not recognized by all states) is marriage by consent, whether that consent is given freely or not is questionable

7:55 pm

Nevermindme

7:55 pm

why bzz?

7:56 pm

I was just checking to see my icon tomorrow.

7:56 pm

okay, consider yourself neverminded

well i'm all done in, cya all tomorrow

8:03 pm

hi kazozz

8:03 pm

Texas Accent?

8:03 pm

OK, TO, thanks...

8:04 pm

can we vote - who believes implementable is a word?

8:04 pm

no cheating

8:04 pm

Hi, NAT

8:04 pm

Hi again, pam.

8:05 pm

I don't like it, kje

8:05 pm

reading anything fun, nat?

8:05 pm

but if I use able to be implemented - it goes onto a second line

8:06 pm

No, not today. I spent part of the day knitting and hanging out with a friend from stitch and bitch. How about you?

8:06 pm

The allende book, sum of our days... read it on my way to and from my errands...

8:06 pm

Sounds like you had a nice day, nat...

8:07 pm

I did, thanks.

8:07 pm

may I have a clue for the 2nd RE 5/12?

8:07 pm

I am glad you are meeting people!!!!

8:08 pm

re + turf

8:08 pm

Me too, pam. more than you can imagine.

8:09 pm

You are right there, nat. I don't know how you did it and continue doing it. Seems knitting has been good for you!

hi guys.....hows everyone.

8:09 pm

turf...land, soil, dirt... still thinking

8:09 pm

In more ways than one--I'm meeting a great group of people and it is relaxing.

8:09 pm

good, Red, how

8:09 pm

is florida?

8:09 pm

rhymes with peas in a p***. phand

8:09 pm

Hi, red!

hi red. phan, think lawn

8:10 pm

hello, redT

rodeo

8:10 pm

once I'm working at a real job again I want to get back into taking pottery classes.

8:10 pm

ah! got it thanx, for the extra help

darn it.

8:10 pm

Hi Red - how is the sun?

ty, red! ;)

8:10 pm

that's wonderful, nat! My friends want me to join a book club, but not my gig... and, of course, they want to fix me up that way, which is NOT my gig right now...

SUns good. works good, all good...for the moment. New fitness testing on tues...

8:11 pm

How is your friend, red?

8:11 pm

I can understand the not wanting to get fixed up (shudder), but why not the book club?

book club could be fun....

8:12 pm

LOL, nat... I don't like reading in groups. Never liked it in school, either. want to read what I want, and talk about it whenever... plus, there is a person in my friend's group whom i rather dislike....

shes doing ok pam, she just called...i miss being able to see her.

can someone pls give the first two and the letter count for the i word? ty

8:13 pm

BR - to show you how much I respect your opinion, genius that you are : ) - I won't use implementable (though I do believe it is a perfectly useful word)

8:13 pm

I am glad that she is okay, red. I am sure you do miss her. I hope your friendship endures...

I think we're stuck with each other now...but we'll see.

8:14 pm

ah, I hear you. It has to be the right group of people, for sure. Most of my book groups turned more into socializing than active book discussions, which was ok for an easygoing fiction group.

8:14 pm

it does seem rather a tongue twister, kje

8:14 pm

that is a nice turn of events, nat...

8:14 pm

good, red!

8:15 pm

Red - have you done the horse challenge yet?

8:15 pm

I actually miss that group. Once I know enough people here I might try to start a book group here.

nope kje, its goin g to be a while..

8:16 pm

what is a horse challenge?

8:16 pm

what's the horse challenge?

8:16 pm

jinx, pam!

8:16 pm

That will be nice for you, nat... I don't honestly know how you have remained so seemingly even-keeled...

8:16 pm

lOL, nat

i might learn to ride a horse thats all...

8:17 pm

LOL, that is because you haven't seen me when I'm in the midst of an anxiety attack. But I'll take the compliment anyway.

8:17 pm

ahhhhh

8:18 pm

OK, must finish the last proofing of this thing - TTFN

8:18 pm

8-), nat

8:18 pm

ciao, kje

8:18 pm

see you kje

bye kje. anyone have the first two for the i word?

8:19 pm

I hear some ice cream calling my name from the freezer....

8:19 pm

sorry, TO, don't have it...

no list tonight then? brave girl!

8:21 pm

is7/32, TO.

8:21 pm

(I'm not really here, btw.)

8:22 pm

lol, jac!

hmmmmmmmmm...i think i heard a voice ...remarkably like jacs. but she's not here...

8:22 pm

who, TO?

8:24 pm

Hi all. I am back for my last 26. Dinner is cooking, laundry is in the washer, I still need to vacuum the downstairs, but somehow I will get it all done.

hello scrabs. awfully late for dinner?

8:24 pm

Wow, Scrabs... You are the energizer bunny tonight...

8:24 pm

Natasha--that is my problem too--ice cream calls my name and a carton that should be 24 servings becomes 2 servings.

8:26 pm

It has been an odd weekend, not at all what I had planned for myself. A childhood friend(tennis buddies since age 12 and we played on the college team together and still play tennis together) called yesterday AM to report that she was in the ER with her father that had just died. She never moved out from home--her mom died 12 yrs ago, so now my friend will be alone.

8:27 pm

Oh, scrab, I am so sorry...((((( )))))

8:27 pm

So, I spent the day with her until her older sister arrived after a flight from Boston. Today I have been in a daze and unproductive.

8:28 pm

Aw, says not really here J, she'll need her friends around her now.

8:28 pm

Yes, jac, she will....

*worries that sheis hearing voices*

8:29 pm

Not really here person LOLs at To and wonders if she got the is7 word.

8:29 pm

I hear voices and it is often me talking to myself.

8:29 pm

I need is7--help please?

8:29 pm

Ditto Scrabbs.

8:29 pm

don't have it, scrabs....

8:30 pm

*echoey and spooky sound*

*thinking* not yet but have not really pondered it

8:30 pm

is7 is a solo amount of medicine...or sounds like it anyway

8:30 pm

is7 = is + vowel + measure of medicine.

8:30 pm

thanks, dr!!!!! and jac

ty. i kept trying to make a word of the red tinted medicine

8:31 pm

hi pam...i'll tell DR you said hi when i talk to her in a bit

8:31 pm

I think most of us did, TO!

8:32 pm

LOL, please do dan, sorry!

8:32 pm

what red-tinted medicine?

8:32 pm

iodine, pam.

the one that goes on cuts and stings

8:32 pm

oh, thanks, LOL

8:33 pm

in reality pam...that was her clue to me! so thanking her is appropriate

8:33 pm

TY for is7---silly word.

8:33 pm

LOLOLOLOLOL, dan!

8:33 pm

mercurochrome---a blast from the past.

8:33 pm

Though, that's yellow in my memory. I remember backinWales, a farmer's wife dabbed it on me after her dog bit me. Stung like hell.

you are right, o spirit...

8:34 pm

scrab...you mean you never prescribe an is7 for your patients? "Take 1 do4 when no one is around"

8:34 pm

Speaking of things that sting, don't EVER try that 'paint on plaster' stuff . That's worse than rubbing lemon juice into a cut.

that one did not sting, did it?

8:35 pm

We use the term "dose equivalent", such as when comparing do4s of steroids or opiates.

8:35 pm

No the dog did not sting, TO. Maybe more than one dog (clue there) might.

8:36 pm

I like your definition, Dan.

8:36 pm

Nice one, Dan!

8:36 pm

thank you thank you

8:37 pm

Help with the DE words please?

8:37 pm

Dan - you're not going to cry and thank everyone you ever met in your entire life now, are you??

8:37 pm

I mean de5 and 6.

8:38 pm

de5/12 = to remove a rodent. de6 = to lower cost or speed?

8:38 pm

I'm trying to figure out if I have to root for Darth Vader, since darthdude is my son...this video is bringing out some strange questions for me...

8:38 pm

8:42 pm

what time? cannot go back very far on this dinosaur. probably best.

8:43 pm

I'll have to go to IE to do that, ndan. I use firefox for almost everything, but it can't cope with archives.

8:43 pm

I'll go and look.

8:44 pm

Hi, Temple Owl. Same question here!

8:44 pm

Hi, Temple Owl. Same question here!

8:44 pm

So a clue for that te 7?

8:44 pm

there's a view entire chat log link, TO, but takes forever to load

8:44 pm

am using safari for that reason, jac...

hi julien. nice to meet you.

8:45 pm

Hi Julien

8:45 pm

Hi, folks. Sorry for that double message there.

8:46 pm

te + a color + vowel, then pl for te7

8:46 pm

anagram of what an oak or elm or spruce is + sp two

8:47 pm

That's what te6 means?

i think so

check babblets

8:48 pm

ho5/16 please?

8:48 pm

Wow, that te was what I would call obscure.

8:48 pm

BRB--going to switch laundry.

that's a lot of bunk. scrabbler

8:50 pm

misty lackey! oooh, she's one of my faves

8:51 pm

Okay, back in firefox now, having checked on IE. Timeframe 5:47am (MrP's post) - 8:36am should explain it.

hey dawg!

8:51 pm

rhymes with chop so***, scrabs

8:51 pm

Hi TO

8:51 pm

anyone remember the cartoon takeoff of the 3 musketeers [late 60s early 70s] - they yelled "yippee", "yapee", and "yaho5" as they collided

8:52 pm

Nope, nDan. I do remember Dogtanian and the 3 Muskehounds from the 80's or 90s... my kids used to love'em.

8:53 pm

Dogtanian? Stop it, you're killing me.

8:53 pm

jac, just read the chog archives. can I say "give me a break?" Why are people so sensitive?

8:54 pm

have just run through 5 elemental masters books [soccer practice waits], they all had a different flavor .... do any chars appear in the other related books [read her long ago in mzb phase, just saw this set at the library]

8:54 pm

TY, dawger

8:54 pm

prickly, I think I called it, pam. Who knows what's going on in someone's life... menopausal, need to keep the lid on the flask, or just naturally grumpy? Dunno! Life's to short.

8:55 pm

Ndan, i don't think so. I think the elementals is a series of it's on, unlike the valdemar series

8:55 pm

true enough, jac...

scrabs did you get the h word?

8:55 pm

yw. scrabs

time to go. goodnight all

8:56 pm

Yes, dawger clued it, but now I see that you did too, but I wasn't sharp enough to know at the time.

8:56 pm

night, TO!

8:56 pm

'Night, TO.

b4 i go - special offer from eharmony, threee months for 59.95. do i go for it???

8:58 pm

If I knew what eharmony was, I might be able to advise. LOL

unfortaunately not a drug for internet users. a dating match site.

8:59 pm

ho6 the second one

8:59 pm

I did wonder, TO! LOL

8:59 pm

It is a website for singles to meet other peeps Jacula

9:00 pm

crowds, tijani.

9:00 pm

ho 6/24 is plural of the ho 5/14 word before it tijani.

9:00 pm

the first one, sorry

sounds as if you could have used some earlier

9:01 pm

Same as the one just clued, different spelling tijani.

9:01 pm

Oh, okay Min. Thanks for that. Met my other half on line but not on a dating site. I know (really, as in real life, not just net life) a dozen other couples who've met the same way.

9:01 pm

TO - too right!

9:02 pm

thx

9:02 pm

enter a message

so i will skedaddle. bye-ee!

9:02 pm

I know it is the "in" thing to do now,but I don't trust people on those kinds of websites. My sister tried it.

9:03 pm

Have we reached tijani's messaging service? 'Hello! This is Babbleonia.'

9:04 pm

All done with the grid..TY all for helping me to finish. I like the video as I am a huge Star Wars fan.

9:04 pm

Min - I feel the same way. I think you do far better on chatting sites where you establish over some months, or even years, where your interests lie. We met on the old chat site (no longer exists now) of Friends Reunited.

9:05 pm

Now, off to vacuum the downstairs. See you tomorrow.

9:05 pm

Well done, Scrabbs.

9:05 pm

Congratulations Scrabbler on fireworks!Good for you

9:05 pm

Goodbye Scrabbler! I will see you tomorrow in the log

9:05 pm

Hey, Ang and Lola got together on Babble.

9:06 pm

whoooo hooooo SCRABS! sweet dreams

9:07 pm

Sites that chat randomly about this and that are probably far better for making new friend - sometimes even soulmates in the friends sense or the lover sense from.

9:07 pm

alas, tis witching hour for me...see you all tomorrow

9:07 pm

Night lbd, though I did not know you were there, since I am not really here.

9:08 pm

Just about to say that l'd consider meeting someone on Babble if I weren't married. This site seems like a pretty safe place to meet other people. My husband gets jealous that I chat with people here.I just laugh

9:08 pm

Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log!

9:09 pm

Min - but you can find female soulmates, too! Not in any sexual sense.

9:09 pm

i've been in and out tonight, Jac. got distracted with some other stuff and realized the time! now must really be off. *poof*

9:10 pm

But, yes, this isn't a bad site to find a partner, if one was inclined to. Having said that, if you are hetero, there are very few men here! Mad a few good female friends, though.

9:11 pm

'Night, lbd.

9:11 pm

My husband does not realize the nature of this chog.

9:12 pm

Maybe you should let him read it, Min? My Other Half reads back on goodness knows how much worth at the weekend.

9:12 pm

I agree, with some hesitation, jac!

9:12 pm

He is a Babbler though. Doesn't Babble very often.

9:12 pm

My ex- and her now current, chatted on line and in messenger as we are all volunteers for the same org

9:13 pm

Pam - I know it can backfire.

9:13 pm

Of course, being dishonest doesn't come out in chats all of the time...

9:13 pm

I've tried several times to get him to play this game, but unsuccessful. He's not into any computer games.

9:13 pm

I know you do, Jac... guess I just mention it now and again...

9:14 pm

Well, Min. He'll just have to trust you, and us, then, won't he?

9:14 pm

pam - I understand.(((xxx)))

9:14 pm

hi friends

9:15 pm

thanks, jac! Hi, ping

9:15 pm

Also, pam, you need to give me your email or MSN or Yahoo, or Skype soon. NOT IN THE LOG though. Just quickly in bio.

9:15 pm

Hi, Ping.

9:15 pm

hi jac, pam, and min

9:16 pm

I have invited him to read the chat logs also, but not interested. I tell him not to complain if he won't read the chats in the archives. He does not mind so much anymore. It was just when I first started babbling.

9:16 pm

Hang on! It's 3:15am and Other Half should have been up at 3am...

9:16 pm

oh, ok, jac! Not tonight, though... I was just thinking I need to lie down.... I will see you tomorrow

9:17 pm

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

9:18 pm

Goodbye pam! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

9:18 pm

good night, pam - see you later

9:19 pm

Thanks, Min!

9:19 pm

Right, he's awake, sort of, now and in the shower.

9:19 pm

Ok Pam, Sleep well.

9:21 pm

do you ever sleep jacula?

9:21 pm

Min - yes, they do kind of wonder what the attraction is in Babble. But, so do we for the places they play, whether on the Net or not.

9:21 pm

Of course I do, ruru!

9:21 pm

hi ruru

9:21 pm

YOu are a total night owll.. love it

9:22 pm

Night sweats since I reached my 50s don't help with sleep, though.

9:22 pm

HI PING!

9:22 pm

Hi rururocks!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

9:22 pm

oh.. we went through that

9:22 pm

HI Minver...tell hubby this chat is harmless and entertaining only

9:23 pm

I just tell him to shut-up & deal with it! (just kidding)

9:23 pm

LOL

9:24 pm

lol you go girl

9:24 pm

Can someone tell my dentist, who recently took over the place from my old dentist, who KNEW I only do appointments after NOON, that my appointment at 10.30am will NOT be kept? I did try 2 ring the surgery twice this week, but they now only work 3 and a half days a week and have long lunch hours on the days they do work, with no facility to leave messages.

9:24 pm

I put up w/his bad habits, so he can put up with mine

9:24 pm

Not that babbling is a bad habit, but it is in his eyes.

9:25 pm

I will NOT be paying him £15 for not turning up!

9:25 pm

babbling is good for the brain

9:25 pm

is clue anyone?

9:26 pm

IS 7, perhaps I should have said!

9:26 pm

It is good for ignoring annoying husbands rururocks.

9:26 pm

Ping - is7 = is + vowel + measure of medicine.

9:26 pm

The is7/32 word is is plus vowel plus do 4/5 word Ping

9:27 pm

thanks, jac and min- got it

9:32 pm

9:32 pm

9:33 pm

J'Accuse is the name of the movie. Never heard of it.

9:33 pm

there's a zola novel called that, isn't there?

9:34 pm

It has no dialogue just music. Then it has words you read in between the scenes. Not watching it though.

9:34 pm

emile zola?

9:35 pm

interesting

9:35 pm

anyone have te 6 and 7?

9:35 pm

9:35 pm

We watched the new St. Trinian's movie on Saturday. It was hilarious.

9:40 pm

I am watching Major League.Not really watching it.I am listening to it. I have tv on for background noise.

9:41 pm

Sometimes, when I see themes renewed, I think they shuldn't have been. In this case, they worked it perfectly. So many worse things naughtly schoolgirls can get up to these days! V. funny family film.

9:42 pm

However, I think thr St. Trinian's films were British humour.

9:43 pm

I've never heard of St. Trinian's film. I am very picky about movies. Don't like too many movies these days.

9:43 pm

Beloved is safely off, coffeed and out to work now.

9:44 pm

done!

9:44 pm

Min - You'd have to watch the old movies (with Alastair Sim as the headmistress) first, before you could appreciate how good the new version is.

9:44 pm

sleep well, min and jacula - thanks for your help!

9:44 pm

Well done, ping.

9:45 pm

I never go to the movies anymore. They are so darn expensive,I think that they have to be REALLY good to go pay to see them. In fact, I can't remember the last movie I saw in a movie theater. Was so long ago!

9:45 pm

Congratulations Ping on your fireworks!Good for you

9:46 pm

Goodbye Ping! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

9:46 pm

I don't go often, either, Min. I usually buy ex-rental DVDs (which are sturdier quality than normal retail dvds).

9:46 pm

clue please, for et 5/18 ?

9:47 pm

jeffer- another spelling of the 'needle case'.

9:47 pm

e + 'how very t"""!'

9:47 pm

The et5/18 word is e plus a tw 4/8 word jeffer and hi

9:48 pm

etaoe

9:48 pm

ooops!

9:49 pm

o yes got it ty and hi back

9:49 pm

Having said that, Min, the in theatre film experience is far better than the (however big your TV is) one. Just like being AT a live concert is far better than viweing it if you weren't there.

9:50 pm

y/w jeffer, and hi again.

9:51 pm

It's all about atmosphere.

9:53 pm

Well, the cinema (movie theatre) thing is okay if you don't get someone tall/fat, big-headed, big-haired, or keeps moving about in front of you, no kids kicking the back of your seat behind you, and no crunchers, munchers, chatters or rustlers around you.

9:53 pm

Other than that, cinema is great! LOL

9:53 pm

I would rather be in the atmosphere of my own home where I can go to the bathroom without missing any part of the movie and I can whataever I want to eat

9:54 pm

I would rather be in the atmosphere of my own home where I can go to the bathroom without missing any part of the movie and I can eat whatever I want to.

9:56 pm

I guess you've got Sky+ then Minn. LOL. Great invention!

9:57 pm

I used to love going to the movies, but it never fails that the people in front of you keep talking throughout the whole movie and eat noisily a 55 gallon barrel of popcorn for hours

9:57 pm

If there's anything I could say I love about Sky, it's the live pause button. SO handy when you aren't quite ready.

9:59 pm

ruru - I wonder still about the size of the popcorn tubs and coke barrels.

Hi timhorton!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

10:00 pm

sorry

10:00 pm

No, Tim. Past tense of a not deaf creature or someone who consumes food.

10:00 pm

hi min

10:01 pm

Haven't seen you here in awhile timhorton.Been busy

10:01 pm

hi jac

10:01 pm

Hi, Tim

10:02 pm

thanks jac

10:02 pm

y/w, Tim.

10:02 pm

i have been really tired

10:03 pm

hey, me too *high five for being tired*

10:03 pm

Maybe the caffeine is having a reverse effect now, Tim?

10:03 pm

i just spend a few minutes on the grid before i fall asleep lately

10:03 pm

Hello, hursh.

10:04 pm

caffieine has never been a stimulant for me Jacula

10:04 pm

Hello hurshy! How are you? Welcome back to the grid

10:05 pm

I don't feel 'energised' mst of the time now. Maybe that's because I just hit 51 and the night sweats are getting to me.

10:05 pm

hello.

10:05 pm

*hopes that is all it is..*

10:05 pm

i hate night sweats they are the worse

10:06 pm

Every 20 mins/half hour wake up, tim?

10:06 pm

I'm peed off with 'em!

10:06 pm

That's why I'm here and 'not really here',

10:06 pm

i wake up a couple of times through the night to change

10:08 pm

Only a couple? That's lucky.

10:08 pm

hehe

10:08 pm

taking a shower before bed seems to buy me some time

10:09 pm

and baby powder

10:11 pm

I had a letter from my aunt on my birthday last week. She said how she'd suffered from hot flushes and night sweats for 10 years now. (She had a hysterectomy in her late 20s) and was 60 last year. She said, 'when I'm having a hot flush and some Smart Harriet tells me, 'It'll soon pass!', I snarl, 'I've had 'em for 10 years now and my sister, who is in her 70s still has them!' (Her sister is my Mu,, btw.) 'That's usually a conversation stopper!'

10:11 pm

I wish I could get my aunt on here.

10:11 pm

gee

10:12 pm

i have had them for 4 yrs now

10:12 pm

hey, peeps

10:12 pm

and i started young

10:12 pm

just sticking my nose in for a minute

10:13 pm

hi tyger

10:13 pm

tim - don't be dismayedby our family history (my great gran stillhad hot flushes in her 90s), Your genetic 'thingey' might be different from ours.

10:14 pm

hey, tim

10:14 pm

just did search on st trinian's to see if it was one of the boarding type movies I'd seen long ago; wasn't, but the movies sound a hoot; even overview of original inspiration [st trinnean's] was good.

10:14 pm

Hello tygerbryght! How are you? Welcome to the grid

10:14 pm

hey, min

10:15 pm

hopefully cause it isn't something i think you'll get used to

10:15 pm

Also, Tim, if you want a lighter take on all this, check my blog out. (Address is in my bio.)

10:16 pm

I'll be giving beauty tips for the glowing woman on there sometimein the next 2 weeks. *grins*

10:17 pm

bedtime, and HOPE to sleep. nytol

10:17 pm

nDan - see all of the films. I hope you like 'em!

10:18 pm

tyger - don't overuse the nytol or it won't work. Ask my daughter!:-(

10:18 pm

Goodbye tygerbryght!I'll see you tomorrow in the log

10:19 pm

the other stuff is something i'm not looking forward to; think it may be in initial stages

10:20 pm

I've NEVER actually used the stuff, jac

10:21 pm

don't have any, either :D

10:21 pm

cute poem jacula

10:21 pm

but after 4 hours sleep in 48 hours, I'm thinking about asking my doctor for SOMEthing :(

10:22 pm

I used to love going to sleep 'spooning'. These days, never knwoing what's going to set off a night sweat, even a cough or a move on the mattress can do it. we dren't sleep that way. Poor Beloved never knows where I might kik him in my desparation to be 'cool and unfettered'.

10:22 pm

And I miss spooning!

10:22 pm

hehe

10:22 pm

*poof*

10:23 pm

my poor hubby has to live with the ceileng fan above the bed on all winter long

10:23 pm

Which poem, tim?

10:23 pm

the one about the mess

10:24 pm

Ah, tim. Not one of mine. That was Pam Ayres.

10:25 pm

well it certainly rings true

10:25 pm

My poems may becomeavailabel to read or hear when I sort my mike and sond recorder out.

10:26 pm

Pam never lies, tim! She's brilliant.

10:26 pm

:)

10:27 pm

Sitting here nattering to you lot is going to cost me £15.

10:28 pm

wow why?

10:29 pm

I won't be at the dentist's place at 10.30am. But, I was catalogued on the computer for old dentist as being 'an afternoon' appointment.

10:30 pm

New dentsit gived NHS patients 3 days a week (not full working days) + half a day (not a full half day) on Firdays. I guess he's dealing with his private patients the rest of the timw.

10:31 pm

meaning you should be asleep in order to make your appiontment in the morn|

10:32 pm

Exactly, Tim! But it'ds going to cost me £15 anyway.

10:32 pm

but then you would have had a tooth to show for it

10:33 pm

could be freudian slip that you are still here

10:34 pm

I tried to ring on Friday to say I had a much-filled b borken n 2 places molar that might need more time than tey'd allowed in the compiter generated check up appointment.

10:34 pm

secretly want to miss the dentist

10:34 pm

However, no messages can be left now and you're lucky if a human beiing ever answersa the 'phone.

10:36 pm

sounds painfull

10:37 pm

Want to miss the dentist at 10.30am for sure, but annoyed I tried to check in and never could, What a great way he sucks the guts from his NHS patients whilst treating his private patients.

10:38 pm

all dental patents here are private

10:38 pm

Our present Prime Minister of Britain, a Scot who his Labour, is Gordon Brown.

10:59 pm

11:03 pm

ooohhh - thought you were asking for so clues

11:03 pm

kje: do you have a blog?

11:04 pm

no - no time to blog

11:04 pm

why?

11:04 pm

i would ask but i have a feeling all the words i need tonight are redicuously obvious and i am just brain dead

11:04 pm

just wondering if you want me to link to you from my site. I have a long list of babblers there.

11:04 pm

all the more reason to ask tim!!!

11:05 pm

tim, it would be okay... I was totally stoopid several times today. OR, if you ask my kid, ALL the time today!

11:05 pm

oh - nope, but I did get a facebook account - though there isn't much on it : )

11:05 pm

lol

11:05 pm

11:05 pm

os5/10

11:05 pm

11:06 pm

o + doule consonant + 2 vowels on the right column

11:06 pm

nope - I think I have lilmonkey and herinfernal

11:07 pm

I am "stidmama babble" if you want to friend me.

11:07 pm

I am good at blogging and html, but these social networking sites are hard for me to figure out.

11:07 pm

OK, will try that, BRB

doule = double (OY)

11:07 pm

thanks book dr

11:07 pm

I had to delete most of the applications because it took me too darn long to do anything!

11:08 pm

go tim go!

8-D

11:09 pm

gwen, what's the market like for old cookbooks?

11:10 pm

We have retrieved a number of books and things from my grandmother's house, and I am wondering if Mother should add to her insurance in case something happens to them.

stid, cookbooks are almost always sought after. however, if you have those tall hardcover ones published by cooking magazines, hard to sell cuz they printed millionzz

11:10 pm

how about do 6/27

11:10 pm

no, some of these are unique. I'll ask her to check what they are with someone then.

11:11 pm

do 6/27 is stoopid. DO + the things on a bike that you change to go faster; then plural

11:11 pm

OK stid, found you

stid, what I would do is take three or four of the books, including the most beat-up one, and bring them to your local used-book store. you should be able to get an appraisal verbally for free

11:11 pm

good deal! thanks kje!

11:12 pm

hanks stid

11:12 pm

that is excellent advice. You are so kind, gwen!

how are they unique"? hand written?

do6 means to fold over the corner of a book, actually. 8-)

(i mean the corner of a page, not the whole books) (OY)

11:13 pm

oh gwen... LOL of course it does! I was splitting the word in the wrong place. *rubs eyes* I am getting tired, I suppose

11:13 pm

:) you would know gwen:)

11:14 pm

Some of them have extra notes in them, but no -- I think I meant they aren't the sort that were published by companies (although we have some of those too).

11:14 pm

I don't know why I am so tired, just overwhelmed by stuff I guess.

11:14 pm

brb gotta take care of kid stuff

11:15 pm

(the other kid... fortunately)

stid, i'm still not clear how they are unique -- if not published by companies then by who? perhaps church groups and civic clubs?

11:17 pm

11:17 pm

11:17 pm

watching seinfeld - the one where kramer and newman decide to use homeless people to pull rickshaws - what a funny show

11:17 pm

evening. i was annoyed yesterday. i did teh grid in lickety at work, but was so tired when i got home, after a b'day dinner for friend at benihana after 12h shift, that i forgot to enter it into the grid. Evening, how is everyone?

11:17 pm

rest that is

11:18 pm

WOOHOO Tim!!! WTG!

11:18 pm

11:19 pm

hi dc

11:20 pm

well night everyone take care

11:20 pm

hi, tim, gwen, kje, stid :)

11:20 pm

sweet dreams tim, and YAY!!!!

11:20 pm

eh, little thing as life goes

11:20 pm

hey seain!

11:20 pm

just got in from another b'day dinner tonight, though at cheesecake factory this time.

11:20 pm

not a fan

11:20 pm

g'night and congrats, tim!

11:21 pm

it's alright, not a firist choice for me, kje, but the company was worth it

11:21 pm

though the martini had WAY too much vermouth in it; could barely taste the gin :/

11:21 pm

you're just a birthday party animal, seain!

11:21 pm

feb, late apr/early may, late oct, and early dec, yes i am stid :D

11:22 pm

nephew is on 5th; need to call sister and see if she has suggestions.

11:22 pm

else, he gets a new put-it-together toy from the maker store

11:22 pm

how old is nephew?

11:23 pm

what is vermouth compared to gin? never had either

11:23 pm

9 this year, stid. gave him a light-seeking mouse that he had to solder for xmas

11:24 pm

good gin tastes like juniper; vermouth is ightly bitter.

11:24 pm

wow. you're a good uncle! LOL

11:24 pm

vermouth is yet smooth going down, but it's a mixer alcohol.

11:25 pm

I think I wouldn't like gin. juniper is nasty to weed....

11:25 pm

well, he likes manual things, has an interest in electronics, and it was only 27$ with shipping, stid :)

vernors is smooth too LOL

11:25 pm

not a gin fan - vodka is my preference - vodka martini - mmm

11:25 pm

LOL perhaps it tastes better than it feels?

11:26 pm

i like gin, though i've had 2 vodka martinis i really like, one chocolate, and one orange with vodka, cointreau and oj.

11:26 pm

there are some really cool programming robotic things at fry

11:26 pm

at fry's -- but they can be pricy.

11:26 pm

vermouth? not to me, though i don't hate it. but a martini should be gin with some vermouth, not the other way around.

11:26 pm

espresso martini - yeehaw

11:26 pm

i'll check it out stid.

11:27 pm

i'm sure those are good too, kje, though i minimize my coffee due to heart/stimulant issues.

11:27 pm

martini is what james bond drank yes? shaken not stirred... (though what difference that would make I do not know)

11:27 pm

so sad DC - sorry

11:27 pm

decaf coffee?

11:27 pm

they are traditionally shaken, so the james bond line, though clever, is throw-away

11:27 pm

yep stid - the drink of 007

11:28 pm

I know I am stoopid about drinks. A whole glass of wine can knock me out! LOL

11:28 pm

true, stid, i could ask for w/decaf, though i don't care for black coffee really.

11:28 pm

you can get decaf espresso

11:28 pm

never tried more hard stuff than is needed to flavor sauces

less than half a beer for me. been drunnk once and that's the last time

11:28 pm

we all have different tolerances and tastes, stid. mom and her dad were alcoholics, so i have good tolerance.

11:29 pm

never been drunk - never wanna be

11:29 pm

I like the flavor of coffee, but can't really tolerate a lot of full-caf. One smallish non-decaf starbucks latte and I start to talk really fast and loud...

11:29 pm

though have gotten a little tipsy

11:29 pm

i had a hangover at 20 by accident, and again a year later intentionally, just to be sure that i never wanted that again, and i've not since.

11:29 pm

i'm allergic to barley malt and wheat malt - i drink few beers

11:30 pm

I was drunk once. Just to see what it was like. Not fun, don't have to do it again. (Can't really remember what it was like to be honest -- I was THAT drunk-- but the after effects were horrid)

11:30 pm

I watched my friends and knew I didn't want to do that! - LOL

11:30 pm

usually hefeweizens or bieres blanches, or lightly-malted summer brews.

11:30 pm

Just being near my Tom can make me tipsy... he's so lovely to me.

11:30 pm

seain -- your allergies are even weirder than mine!

11:30 pm

retching all the way home - so sexy as a college student - NOT

11:30 pm

:D nice to hear stid.

11:30 pm

sing it, kje!

11:31 pm

i have a tom, too :)

wehn drunk i was too stupid to be able to play a decent game of crazy eights, a card game requiring no brains whatever (!)

11:31 pm

I am glad you have a tom, seain. EVeryone should have one.

11:31 pm

aaawww stid

11:31 pm

Hi, all!

11:31 pm

lol gwen

11:31 pm

hi, jellen

11:31 pm

I can't remember how to play crazy eights....

11:32 pm

hi Jellen!

11:32 pm

and my mom would agree, i'm sure, stid, about the toms :D

11:32 pm

gluten in general DC?

11:32 pm

no, kje, barley and wheat malt specifically.

11:32 pm

hi jellen

11:32 pm

something in the malting process disagrees terribly with me

11:33 pm

hello all I need help with my last one..the 2nd te6/21

11:33 pm

please

crazy eights: two players. each gets 26 cards face down. take turns turning a card face up in the center. when an 8 comes up, slap it. first one to slap it gets the pile. winner is first to get all the cards

11:33 pm

I'm not a beer fan in general

11:33 pm

te + re4/5

(also called slap jacks, only you slap jacks instead of 8s)

11:34 pm

oh, crazy 8s is slapjack :)

11:34 pm

that isn't how we played crazy eights - UNO is actually based on crazy eights

11:34 pm

I must confess I'm a beer fan.

11:34 pm

the 8s were wild cards

hmmm, i must be mixing up my card games! that damn beer!!! LOL

11:34 pm

i grew up with euchre, rummy, gin rummy, and bridge. learned canasta at uni, but have forgotten, and recently learned cribbage, which is much fun - sort of like backgammon w/cards.

11:35 pm

thanks kje that did it fireworks for me

11:35 pm

i learned to sell beer by smell alone when i sold it.

11:35 pm

-I'm with you jellen! Evening ? all

11:35 pm

congrats, west :D

11:35 pm

Yay for westford!!!

11:35 pm

I LOVE cribbage - bet I can beat you DC : )

11:35 pm

hi west! YAY!!!!

11:35 pm

WTG West!!!!!

11:35 pm

thanks jellen I always seem to get in under the wire

11:35 pm

thanks for reminding me how to play crazy 8s/slapjack...

11:35 pm

probably, kje, i'm a total noob at it.

11:35 pm

I owe it all to kje

11:35 pm

I love cribbage too -- but again out of practice

11:35 pm

hey hoot!

11:36 pm

I never knew it was the same game

11:36 pm

Hi, hoot

11:36 pm

we played War when I was a kid

i think it was slap jacks that i tried to play when drunk, not crazy 8s. but whatever. i was too stupid to play it, is the point 8-)

11:36 pm

hay stid!

11:36 pm

just kidding DC - also liked hearts and spades in teams - could play for hours on long bus trips when kids

11:36 pm

the card game

11:36 pm

PUI - book

11:37 pm

you probably played 52 card pick up too

pui??

11:37 pm

WhenI was a kid their was an old gent in the neighborhood that taught all the kids card games. Learned penocle (NUTS!) when I 6!

11:38 pm

War could go on forever - too much chance involved

11:38 pm

is that like DUI?

kje, what's PUI ??

11:38 pm

in HS, we used to play gin or chess on the bus; i have a small, magnetic chess set. we'd fold it up and store in locker to continue later.

11:38 pm

i've never learned penochle, though my parents played.

11:39 pm

When I was in high school no one played anything

11:39 pm

playing under the influence - sorry - my chog froze for like 2 minutes!

11:39 pm

I was right!

ah, yes, LOL

11:40 pm

i'm still a gamer - board games and card

11:40 pm

I knew how to play pinochle when I was in high school and college. Fun.

i used to play poker in school. brought poker chips and everything. no one cared until i started using dimes instead of chips. then poker playing was suddenly banned, even though they were still chips, not being used as money

11:40 pm

My father played poker. When I was about 10 we had a family game. I pulled an inside ard to a straight and he never let me play again!:D

11:40 pm

me too - my family play every hoilday - trying out the new stuff

11:41 pm

games, not poker - LOL

11:41 pm

the game of Life?

11:42 pm

My MIL liked card games but the ex didn't. He really, really hated to lose at anything!

what a sore loser, hoot!

11:42 pm

nope - we didn't have that one - though I've played it at friends'

reminds me of an ex-boyfriend i beat a minniature golf and he got mad at me. what a jerk

11:42 pm

firewords just in time!

11:43 pm

i made to next-to-final round in a friedly, though for money, game of texas hold-em with friends a couple months ago.

11:43 pm

congrats, jill!!!

11:43 pm

Yay jillli!!!!

11:43 pm

11:43 pm

WOOHOO for JILLIBUS!!!

wtg jilli ~~~~ !!!!

11:43 pm

Well thats why I finally got rid of him! If he played frisbee with woulf he'd have a snit if the frisbee didn't go directly to him.

11:43 pm

i love jigsaw puzzles. it was from one that i learned where Truxton Circle was :)

11:43 pm

yay jilli and hello

11:43 pm

i must away for the evening, t'was lovely seeing everyone. :)

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

Bye dc!

11:44 pm

thanks all and hello!

11:44 pm

YAY Jill!!!!

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

Truxton Circle was where N Capitol St and NY Ave intersect in DC.

11:44 pm

I think we have about 100 jigsaw puzzles here right now

11:44 pm

aw, bye dc! Not staying for the flip?

11:44 pm

gn seain

11:44 pm

the neighbourhood is still Truxton Circle, but they removed the cirle in 1957

11:45 pm

no, jilli, i have a guest arriving soon. :)

11:45 pm

And the game of Life and Careers. I really, really love this guy!

11:45 pm

stid -- remember the two-sided jigsaw?

11:45 pm

sweet dreams seain

11:45 pm

now I do know thanks lol

11:45 pm

careers?

11:45 pm

have a good time, dc :)

11:45 pm

Even if he beats me at cribbage

11:45 pm

i know game of life, but not careers.

11:45 pm

yes jill! that is such a great one -- have been looking all year for one for us, but no luck

11:45 pm

ty, jilli, i know i will.

11:45 pm

what was your fav game when you were younger, Jill?

11:46 pm

I still have my "careers" game. the kids like to play

11:46 pm

they usually win against me

11:46 pm

well, of course, there's bridge -- or are you talking just board games?

11:46 pm

huh. 60s or 70s vintage, stid?

11:46 pm

70s, seain. Was a gift for a birthday

11:46 pm

Monopoly (Shanghai Millionaire)

11:46 pm

we started in cards, jilli. i think you and i are only bridge people here at the moment.

11:46 pm

card, board, dice...

11:47 pm

tumble dice is fun :)

11:47 pm

Yeah- board game, dice and a bunch of different careers you can persue to earn money. fame & happiness. You pick how much you want of each and off you go

11:47 pm

well Scrabble of course!!!

11:47 pm

yahtzee is fun

11:47 pm

hey everyone

11:47 pm

*grin* of course, kje!

11:47 pm

well, duh to that one, kje ;) it's half of why so many of us are on facebook

11:47 pm

and boggle!

11:48 pm

I played bridge a few times when I was living in Manhatten. A lot like penocle (HOW DO YOU SPELL IT!

11:48 pm

scrabble is the ONLY reason I joined facebook.

11:48 pm

jilli I just checked to see what the new icon should be very interesting info on the tree frog

11:48 pm

that too

11:48 pm

we had to do all our own adding in yahtzee or the older sibs wouldn't let us play - got good at math : )

11:48 pm

Hi crpw

11:48 pm

pinochle

11:48 pm

pinochle

11:48 pm

it's a stoopid spelling

11:48 pm

hi jellen

11:48 pm

me too, stid -- scrabulous I mean

11:49 pm

and then you say it "pee-knuckle" which brings all sorts of images to any mother who has parented a little boy...

6 to go, OY

11:49 pm

lol

11:49 pm

go gwen!!!!

11:49 pm

go book go

11:49 pm

west -- my current icon was for frogs (today's) but I think I'll keep it for little critters too (the next one)

11:50 pm

*holding breath for gwen*

11:50 pm

gogogo gwen!

11:50 pm

hello, crpw

11:50 pm

go, gwen, go! :D

11:50 pm

jilli, the theme queen, found a loop hole

11:50 pm

good idea I'll go find a little critter before the flip

11:50 pm

Scrabble wasn't big - Trivial Pursuit was big for a while til everyone figured out me and my neice Michelle could beat them all. We had to play 2 against 6 usually!

11:50 pm

I realise there's a kids' thing called Little Critters though.

11:50 pm

i like monopoly still

11:51 pm

didn't know that

11:51 pm

I like a lot of games still -- but finding time to play them can be hard

11:51 pm

my uncle called it Monotony

11:51 pm

Thank you stid! But wasn't it usually the face?

11:51 pm

should they be live or stuffed or doesn't it matter?

11:51 pm

*turning a little woozy and hoping gwen finishes fast*

11:51 pm

lol jilli's uncle

11:51 pm

Risk!

re5 and 6 combo??

11:52 pm

*grins at hoot while I turn purple*

11:52 pm

Trivial Pursuit wqas invented by guys from Hudson, Que and one of them went to the same school as my hubby and son.

11:52 pm

re 5: put more grass on the lawn

11:52 pm

what you do when the grass dies

11:52 pm

Jilli - monopoly? I agree

11:52 pm

gwen, put new grass on lawn from not-seed

11:52 pm

or do you want the bucking bronco sport?

11:52 pm
