Hi, Sprite

1:24 am

was just thinking nobody can say 'go to the li4' today... :)

1:24 am

Hi sprite :)

1:24 am

phhhht i dont mind jilli lol

1:24 am

pondering on what to have for dessert while im in there lol

1:25 am

icecream

1:25 am

hello sprite

1:25 am

Sprite...was watching the the CBC the other day (like BBC but Canadian)....and saw this amazing structure they erected with a human man built into the outside of the building...in Amsterdam

1:25 am

raspberry fool, kiwi?

1:25 am

once inside you take a trip thru the human body....amazing !

1:25 am

thinking cheesecake with boysenberries

1:25 am

wow... will ask hubby, he usually knows about such things. Sounds cool!

1:26 am

really amazing...it was like a 13 minute thing on it..

1:26 am

my suggestion had an ulterior meaning, kiwi, lol

1:26 am

do you live in Amsterdam?

1:27 am

yeah well lets just not go there cause im not in the best frame of mind about him at the moment lol

1:27 am

that is SO long! WOnderful. No, we don't anymore, left Amsterdam when we decided we would like to raise kids. But we are about 20 min's drive away from Amsterdam now.

1:27 am

ok, I don't REALLY mind militia being a phantom. Much.

1:27 am

I'm not sure if it just opened but it's prob more new than not

1:27 am

waffle topped by strawberries, blueberries, mand oranges, french vanilla i/c & walnuts

1:28 am

that mabye just a bit over the top for me dan lolol

1:28 am

Can anyone think of an EASY make-ahead dessert with NO dairy or wheat flour in it? Other than fresh fruit, I mean.

1:28 am

will definitely ask hubby or check the internet, 1Mar. Sounds like something worth visiting, with the kids too.

1:29 am

ohhhhh nDan... yes please :D

1:29 am

yes I think so spritey....I'd go if we had something like that here!

1:29 am

what about apple crisp?

1:30 am

you could leave the flour out of the streusel

1:30 am

kiwi -- I meant YOU for the raspberry fool, lol! You can take it to the PB :)

1:30 am

ok i have just been embarrased by my logan's knowledge of computers being more than mine and i thought i knew heaps rofl

1:30 am

flour in the crisp, west :(

1:30 am

I would go for a fresh fruit salade. Maybe topped with molten chocolate.

1:30 am

I know I said you could leave it out

1:31 am

what's it for jilli?

1:31 am

I said other than fresh fruit, and I'm not sure about the chocolate (maybe allergen), and that's not make-ahead

1:32 am

maybe hang around for herin shes good at thinking about foods that need to be free of stuff

1:32 am

it's for 7 people, including mega-allergic stidmama and two teenage boys

1:32 am

hard to think of something without flour could you use oat flour or something?

1:32 am

jilli, I know you said other than, I just said that is what I would do. And I would put the chocolate on it beforehand, so it could set. But am thinking for you.

1:33 am

don't want to bake. Spelt flour is ok -- but you see my problem!

1:34 am

I should say I won't have time to bake.

1:34 am

type of italian ice , hard to think

1:34 am

one of my cousins's always brings a platter of sliced granny smith apples ( there's that fruit again ) arranges them around the edge and puts caramel sauce in the middle for dipping

1:35 am

I have a recipe for making spelt flour crust, but if you don't want to bake, I will not try and find it and translate it. So... no diary, no flour, no baking and no fruit. Doesn't leave much room for a solution.

1:35 am

how about a shaved ice concoction with fruit salad on the bottom and some fruit juice over the top

1:35 am

or just expand on westies idea and just do a big fruit platter

1:36 am

sounds good, but not make-ahead?

1:36 am

here we go again with the fresh fruit!!!

1:37 am

well it is the easiest jilli lol

howdy all. How is your headache Kiwi?

1:37 am

Sprite, is the spelt flour crust any different than the regular flour crust?

1:37 am

peanut brittle

1:37 am

no nuts either I'll bet

1:37 am

I wonder if gelato would be ok. I can buy spelt-flour cookies. Must google gelato recipes and check for dairy.

1:37 am

hiya dee hugs happy babbling and its all gone except for the pain in my butt where i got stabbed lol

1:38 am

don't know, flosey, I am not a regular baker. I learned to do some different stuff because friends of mine are allergic to lots of different things.

1:38 am

flosey, stid bakes pies etc. with spelt flour

1:38 am

good to know jilli, thanks

1:38 am

I think nuts are ok

lol better with butt pain than head pain, I'd think.

1:39 am

flosey -- did you get stid's email?

1:39 am

very much so

1:39 am

hi Dee! and yay Kiwi :)

1:40 am

is stid the only one who is allergic? you could make something chocolaty and gooey for the boys

1:40 am

yes jilli, and responded, sorry, realized as soon as I sent it, I should have cc to you

1:40 am

ohhh must tell you = remember back when i burnt the carpet well i did claim on the insurance and they accepted it and i get new carpet down in lounge and main hallway in about 4 weeks

1:41 am

lucky you kiwi

1:41 am

oh yay! Well done Kiwi. Lovely :)

1:41 am

1:41 am

1:42 am

1:42 am

1:42 am

1:45 am

1:45 am

1:46 am

1:46 am

2:04 am

have trouble believing there can be 8-letter words in here. All I have is one 7, lol.

can anyone point me to the last ta 6...

2:10 am

went away to check out Julia Child's French Cooking dessert recipes. There may be a good one called Peaches Cardinale, which can be made ahead with frozen peaches and raspberries. And I'll also check out pavlovas

2:10 am

sprite, I have an la8

2:11 am

sorry Dee, no li4 here yet. I only have one ta6 and I doubt it is the last.

2:11 am

phantom animate

2:12 am

hm, that is almost that la8, pink. THanks, lol.

I paid bills today and made beef and noodles... felt like I actually accomplished something!

2:32 am

oh, LOL. Stressed out. My son is having his birthday party today... 3 boys coming over and staying the night... he will LOVE it. I will hate it. Things will stay overly taxing until wednesday. After that... I intend to have a period of peace and quiet!

2:32 am

oh wow Dee, good going!

2:32 am

so pleased when I find the volcano first now, believe it or not it was my last word a week or so when I was doing a li4.4less one

2:33 am

awwww lyn ;)

I am sure he will love it; just hang in sprite, knowing peace will come soon after.

I believe it lynxx, have done that myself.

2:34 am

if I can keep from panicking, I will be very pleased with myself. And I love to make my kids happy.

2:34 am

I have the same thing with asea.

You did so well at the concert; you may actually surprise yourself.

Friday greetings everyone! :)

2:35 am

true! Almost forgot about that... I might :D

2:35 am

hi Lorrie!

2:35 am

hi Lorrie

ditto lorrie!

Everyone ok?

well, off to change a load of laundry! Hugs!!! Have a great Friday. Let us hear all about the party, sprite!!

*poof*

2:36 am

*hugs Dee* Have a good time!

2:37 am

sort of, Lorrie. And you?

Likewise - sort of! lol

Anymore news about Mr P?

2:38 am

:) Step by step, breath by breath, and we will get through. Is there any news about mrP already?

2:38 am

oh... snap :)

Hehehe - Great minds! :)

2:40 am

last thing I heard was the op went ok, but mrP was in a lot of pain. But that was yesterday.

The pain is to be expected with what she had done, but let us all hope this works for her!

2:43 am

yup, that is what I said. Bone pain is very hard to sedate. Not an easy thing, but I agree, let's hope it works out this time.

2:45 am

back again -- had to check flosey's plans for stid's visit. Logisitics are complicated!

2:45 am

hi Jilli

2:45 am

Lorrie, great icon!

2:45 am

hi lynxxx :)

2:46 am

hi lorrie too

Thanks, sprite - thought it was quite cute! :)

Hi Jilli :)

2:49 am

I don't think there is a ta8

2:49 am

and then look at my clue icon, ata

2:49 am

I thought someone said there was

2:50 am

lol, ok! I consider it a good sign on a hectic day. Our Simi cannot be stressed, except by lack of barbecue sauce. And that part I have covered already!

2:50 am

oooh yes, great word jilli

2:50 am

checked the li4 -- no ta8, sorry (glad, actually)

2:50 am

there is a tr8 though.

2:51 am

oh, so that was it :(

2:52 am

very close, but it helps to know what the second letter is, lol.

2:53 am

what does it mean, btw... periods of 3 years? 30 years?

2:53 am

i'm only here quickly, just to be happy about simi

2:53 am

glad you popped in, Ata... wanted to share the Simi fun :D

2:53 am

2:54 am

yup, periods of 3 years.

3:17 am

Morning from London (train station this time rather than a hotel!)

Hi Katie

3:50 am

***tiptoes in, trying not to wake anyone***

3:50 am

Good morning Lori. You're not going to have a tantrum and waken them all up?

Hi Lor & Haz!

3:51 am

G'd morning Babblers! Haz, only if the grid is mean to me.

3:51 am

Hello Lorrie as well.

3:51 am

It seems to be a reasonably civilised grid, so maybe we're safe.

3:52 am

yesterday's was small but mighty....

3:53 am

It was. I was hoping for a big grid today but no.

3:53 am

Me too. Mayeb tomorrow. G'd morning Lorrie!

3:54 am

Phantom...animate...grrrrr.

3:54 am

lol G'd morning liz

3:55 am

Good morning liz.

3:55 am

I'd like to register a complaint. Too many words starting with 'a'. :/

3:56 am

Just a quick dip in today, off on the wander again today. Glasgow and Edinburgh for concerts ( Bon Jovi & Lou Reed) Staying for a few days.

3:57 am

You need to address your complaints to the Complaints Receiving Officer. Not sure who's on rota duty today.

3:57 am

Sounds like fun liz, have a great time!

3:57 am

Halfway'll have to suffice for today.

3:57 am

Oh, good for you. Say hello to Edinburgh for me. A Glasgow hello is a bit violent.....

neon s

3:59 am

heh, mornin' Katy

4:00 am

But, Haz, Glasgow's smiles better (hook phrase for city of culture there a few years ago, for those in far flung places)

hi, sorrym, wrong box.

obviously, fingers aren't qauite working right yet this am.

4:00 am

I know - and Edinburgh has only one street.

4:01 am

Anyway, halfway, so off I go.

washer shut off so off i go too.

4:01 am

Bye liz - have a great time.

4:01 am

Will do, thanks.

4:01 am

Have a great time liz. See ya' later Katy.

Enjoy the concerts, liz!

4:12 am

***stoopid a's. 4 preventing me from greying out bottom row*** poopy

4:16 am

I feel a tantrum coming.

4:16 am

From which tile do you miss a?

4:17 am

I'm emotionally expressive. Tantrum maks it sound so un-premeditated.

4:17 am

I've moved on to the next row. I'm pouting, and have purple crayond it for now.

4:18 am

So the next time I see a harassed parent with a toddler, I should comfort them with the thought 'They're just being emotionally expressive'.

4:18 am

Yes, it'd be tremendously trendy. :D

4:19 am

I was hopelessly untrendy with my children, I've decided.

4:20 am

Same here. One of the many traumas they'll carry from their childhood.

4:20 am

Yes. One of mine still recalls the trauma of being marched back to the shop to give back a lollipop she had swiped. I had said no, she had thought 'Why not?'.

4:21 am

She found out why not!

4:21 am

You taught the child the "why not" part? That's practically abusive, isn't it?

4:22 am

Absolutely. I've escaped jail by a whisker.

4:23 am

Right, must put in another load of laundry. Back later.

4:25 am

Later Haz. I must soon toddle as well. Half an hour left before spawnling time.

4:44 am

hello babblers!!

4:44 am

G'd morning pink! ***hugs***

Hiya pink!

4:45 am

hello Lori and Lorrie!!!

hi everyone

4:46 am

4:46 am

G'd mornign becca.

Hi becca!

HI pink, Lorrie and Lori

I need cheering up today - anyone got any good ews?

*news

4:48 am

Good news? The sun is shining.

It's Friday! That's always good! :)

4:48 am

***back in a bit, time to awaken the troops***

4:49 am

Morning Haz

No sun here Haz :o(

See you, Lori

4:49 am

I've just found another word.

4:49 am

Good morning Pink and Becca.

4:49 am

Hello fellow babblers. With one fifth of the grid grayed out, I'm jumping in.

Now that is good news Haz!

Hi gramma

4:50 am

Good morning gramma - jumping into chat rather than the river, I hope?

Go for it gramma! :)

Ugh, I've just noticed there are 3 words beg. with x!!

4:51 am

Don't panic, Becca, the good news is that they're not too difficult.

4:51 am

I'm actually going to ignore the chat (as best I can) and try finding some words

4:52 am

We're not offended, gramma. (Putting gramma's name down in the chat ignorers list)

4:53 am

Ooooh nooo, not the LIST, anything but the list

4:53 am

Darn. We're both in the PB now.

4:53 am

oops

4:53 am

That li4/4 is going to cause major overcrowding today.

4:54 am

Because there are li6/21 to the PB's capacity.

4:54 am

See, that's what happens when you chat instead of babble

nice clue Haz, thanks

4:55 am

Nobody else noticed. They're too busy wrestling with x words.

4:55 am

You're welcome, Becca.

still haven't found those x words though

4:56 am

Do you want clues?

yes please

4:56 am

The last one in the series is xe5/20 - xe plus the opposite of yes in French.

4:57 am

The penultimate is xe5/22 - xe plus the start of the Christmas saint.

4:57 am

The first one mirrors the structure of the xe5/22 but it ends in a vowel.

Whoop! Thanks Haz!

4:58 am

You're welcome - see - good news, the x words are done.

That's one row of little grey cells!

4:58 am

how many st5 words are in this grid?

8 st words

4:59 am

I don't know yet.

5:00 am

I have 4 st5 words so far.

Ooops sorry, 6 st words there :)

5:04 am

5:05 am

This is true!

5:06 am

hello, may I have clues for the 8

5:06 am

for the 8's please

Many words sitting in front of me today and not being seen

Hi peri

5:07 am

ex8 - plural for ex7/52 - describing animals perhaps who no longer live.

5:07 am

peri - la8 to cover with plastic

5:07 am

thank you found them both

5:08 am

la8 - describes something made shiny and durable.

5:09 am

tr8/40 - a helping of three years

Is that ex7 really a word that can be made plural?

5:09 am

I wouldn't have thought so, Becca, but Enable gives the points, so...

Enable clearly knows best

looking for the tr8....

5:11 am

can't quite get the spelling of the tr8 :(

5:11 am

Peri, it has the three prefix, then think of what was celebrated in 2000. Make the ending plural.

Firworks!!!

Jan Brett Children's Book

7:04 am

the mi6/21

I am a bit unwell not at all thinking

7:06 am

good excuse..... hope you feel better =-}

It is likely my fault and i didn't ask for soy milk or it was the hamburger at lunch

7:08 am

or maybe the combo....

The Hamburger was from a regular place i eat. It was kinda rare which is how i like it

7:09 am

MOOOO!

Yes but not what you eat with hamburger meat

7:10 am

Hi Ladies-

7:10 am

???

Hi Dr

Is that a why at me? Rare hamburger meat is not the best for bacteria

7:11 am

Hi Herin

7:11 am

Hey Dr

7:11 am

Hi Lex- Couldn't sleep so I got up before the alarm

7:12 am

morning

7:12 am

Herin - did not understand the "not what you eat with hamburger meat"...

7:12 am

yuck - me too - but I am in cleaning computers getting ready for summer school

Hey DR snap that was the icon i was going to choose. I love Dr Pepper but you can't buy it in stores in Aus

7:12 am

Did you hear about the girl in Quebec who got grounded and sued her father so she could go on a trip...and won?

7:12 am

Sorry you don't feel good Herin

Sukee hi

7:13 am

cute DR - I missed that

Lex what i meant is rare mince is not the best thing to eat its a bit icky on the bacteria level most times

7:13 am

hey sukee - wow what a world

7:13 am

I thought it was a cool icon Herin..

I like it. I have to go to USA foods to get it

7:14 am

I have my kid hooked on Dr Pepper too. Probably not a good thing

7:14 am

gtg to a meating - I mean meeting!

7:14 am

bbs

7:14 am

bye Lex

later lex

Sukee i am suprissed the judge didn't throw that case out

7:17 am

I'm surprised it got that far

7:17 am

The parents are divorced so I think the mother had something to do with it

7:17 am

tells you about our society doesn't it

There was a kid that scratched cars and the judge said he needed corporal punishment

7:18 am

She did. And udner Quebec law, parental "authority" is still shared, even in divorce

7:18 am

The Father is taking it to the SCC and rightly so.

lex, mi 6 .... think cold weather wearing clothing

7:19 am

She has now made the father impotent in his parenting role, and it's outrageous, IMO

DR these 6 kids, In Queensland starved and twin 18month old toddlers died of this neglect the neighbours said 'oh the kids were begging for water and food we didn't help' I was disgusted. The whole area should be publicly shamed and bitched out.

7:20 am

And as a tax payer I think there are better ways to waste money :)

7:21 am

That is awful Herin! I don't understand how people can be like that!

7:21 am

lol, that too sukee. It was a nasty divorce, and the courts and our tax $$abet the Mother

Neither do i. I check on my neighbours kids if they are being loud and bullying the youngest

7:22 am

Then the father shouldn't have to pay support from now on

7:23 am

Won't happen sukee. :(

Someone i know kicked their 11 year old son back to their father for being rude and disrespectful to the step father that treated the kid like a son and for being disrespectful to his mother.

ok, i believe i updated my pictures - thanks for your help herin

THats ok Nane

7:25 am

The phenomenon is called PAS, and courts abet the offender regularly, as they are slow to realize the pawns they have become. ***steps off soapbox*** :)

you are soooooooo kind

now i better dive in - i have 9 words - lol

Nance does your son race Nascars?

ANd some kids need a good spanking but you can't do that anymore

no, hon - he's a fan like i am - his favorite driver is Jimmy Johnson who drives the #48 car

7:27 am

so true Herin!!!

Oh ok. Cool Very cool. Nance i used to go to the Nascars and Auscars when i was a kid

7:28 am

Ahh, yes you can in Canada, and the SCC has reaffirmed that in a decision 2 years ago.

cool bean, herin! i've never been to a nascar race before - the crowds & sitting in the stands would be to difficult for me - i watch from the comfort of my couch every saturday or sunday though - lol

cool beans*

i have 12 words now - lol

7:33 am

Go nance! :D

:o)

i'm doing it, aren't i? lol

did i tell y'all my hubby had an mri of his back wednesday?

how did it go nance? I just booted myself

7:37 am

Is he on dialysis nance?

wb herin

Nance how did it go?

7:38 am

If I'm not confusing him with another poster's hub, which is entirely possible....

no lori - his right kidney is functioning fine - the mira said his left kidney, which is more or less gone, may contain cysts. On his spine, he has bone spurs, narrowing of the spinal canal, dehyrdrated discs, & dics buldging - he see his dr today at 230pm - he went & picked up a copy of his report yesterday so he could try to prepare himself for today's visit.

not mira - mri*

o & the mri didn't speak - it only displayed - lol

Ok so this is not good?

7:41 am

He's got a lot on his plate. You as well! At least 1 kidney is functioning properly. Will todays Dr visit plot a course of action?

lol @ dics bulging - discs* - he only has one of the other & it only buldges now & then - lol

lol nance

we will find out what it all means & tackle headon

hey luv

Best wishes nance

hi

Hi Luv

thank you herin

7:43 am

lol nance, you have a good outlook. All the best to you and yours, from me and mine.

7:43 am

G'd morning luv

tent

i hope his visit will plot a course of action today

Pardon my really random thought but what is your petrol / gas prices a gallon in the states please?

oops lol typed in the wrong box

Cool i didn't ahve that

$4.30 or so here, I'm in Arizona

close to $4 a gallon for regular unleaded

there?

north carolina here

what state are you in, nance?

nvm :)

:o)

Ok so when you pay $6.33 thats what we pay per gallon. Lucky for us our wages are a bit better and have a minimum standard

wow

whoow thats like $1 a litre. Its been hovering at $1.70 a litre thats why in asked

they say it's going to be $5 here soon

Man that sucks

who pays $6.33/

?

so won't be long til it hits $6 or $7

7:47 am

$5.48 a US gallon here in Southwest Nova. $1/45 per liter

we are going to look the the chinese shortly - all of us on bicycles

Us Nance we pay about $6.33 a gallon on average

Us Nance we pay about $6.33 a gallon on average

7:47 am

Morning, all. Sales of scooters and Segways are up in the northeast.

lol yea nance-my husband and i bought a scooter/moped a few months back

7:47 am

Makes $4 bucks a gallon look low, doesn't it.... :D

hey judi

7:48 am

G'd morning Judi

hi judy

i had a moped once - i think i would like another one - lol

It cracks me up that there was a train line built and completed not even 4 years ago and they say its reaching its capacity to take people i am head desking their stupidity

Hi Judy

i drive ours to work every day, it gets 89 mpg, the tank's only two gallons, nance...it's a heck of a lot cheaper than a car

7:49 am

12 to go... off to bathe- bbs

7:49 am

I would love a scooter, but traffic around here is insane. It would be suicidal to drive one.

i know it - i can't recall - do you need to have insurance on mopeds?

7:49 am

Yea DR! Nice job. catch ya' later

bye dr - hb

yes nance, they're considered the same as motorcycles as far as insurance goes

I don't drive and it frightens the heck out of me as this is our food money being used and himself can't catch public transport to work as it takes to long and we do not want to live in his works area as its a hell hole

also license plates?

7:50 am

Any motorized vehicle driven on public roadways needs to be registered and insured.

your state might have different laws, though-here in az you just have to get it registered and insured, but as long as it's 100cc or less (that's the engine size) you don't need a motorcycle license

7:51 am

Oh, yes. You have to have a license and a motorcycle endorsement to drive a scooter/moped.

herin - i don't drive now & it's been 5 years since i have - now that i am off some of the meds, i'm going to get my license again

license plate?

I don't drive as i don't have the temper. I would likely get out of the car and club lock someone

7:52 am

Wow, Luv. That's very liberal of AZ. Lucky you. DMV is a little more militant here in Delaware.

yes, it's smaller than regular plates-it has like 4 letters/numbers and says "mc" to the right of those, for "motorcycle"

lol - my godmother usee to be the same way - she's over 90 & still driving - i pity the fool that messes with her - lol

7:53 am

I'm BAACK

thank you luv

7:53 am

Hey, Arizona is the wild west. You could ride a horse to work!

8:15 am

another nice phantom: incest

8:15 am

I hope tomorrow's grid is a nice sized one. I love working on the grid on Sat. morning while my husband sleeps in.

8:15 am

I looked in a "school dictionary" - only about 1 xe word...

8:17 am

Yep. I have just been looking at baby toys. I saw this awesome Fisher Price toy today and i want it. Its a glowing musical Sea Horse

10:26 am

i have a clue for the tr8?

10:26 am

10:29 am

ooo, thats no good, praise

10:29 am

an7/32 - there are an***** and birds in the forest

10:29 am

hopefully nothing serious

10:29 am

yeah I have a few people I want to talk to that have had epidurals before I decide to have one or not

10:29 am

hi, help with A in lower right corner please

10:30 am

thx iluvcofee

10:31 am

sean it is degenerative disc disease

10:31 am

Well - now you can start on a plan...

10:31 am

something I will have to learn to deal with

10:32 am

Gosh - Praise and we are about the same age....start falling apart...after 40

10:32 am

lex it is just kind of hard to deal with right now

10:32 am

I just had knee surgery in April and now this

10:33 am

yeah - well - your babble name says it all...you can do this too

10:33 am

ti6/21, anybody

10:33 am

that is true--I know I can

10:34 am

I just have to have a few pity parties here and there

10:34 am

I don't have it Holly

10:34 am

thanks lex

10:34 am

Yeah - that is actually so cathardic...people who you can whine to.

10:35 am

that's no fun, praise. sorry for the delay in responses. i'm at work here, so i'll be in and out most of the day

10:35 am

that is for sure

10:35 am

Praise - what are you learning and what are you teaching - in this lifes journey

10:35 am

in7/32 plz

10:35 am

everyone needs a pity party every now and then :)

10:36 am

wow lex that is a a profound question

10:36 am

a little too profound for the amount of sleep i'm running on, i think

10:36 am

ti6/21 tastes of the acid , esp in wines

10:37 am

When things get really hard - that is how I stay sane - I ask those questions - sometimes I ask those questions in prayer and get answers that sustain me

10:38 am

hubby just called to tell me that I am on my own for lucn

10:38 am

lunch

10:38 am

prayer can be calming. meditation is also good for relieving stress and forgetting about all that is not right with the world

10:38 am

can't type today for some reason

10:38 am

I like sunbathing - my one leftover vice

10:38 am

yeah lex I know what you mean

10:39 am

I know I have come a lot closer to God since I have been dealing with my illnesses

10:39 am

Thanks JOSO, I was looking at the wrong ti

10:39 am

you can always meditate while you sunbathe, lex :)

10:39 am

OH YEAH - I totally do - and sleep and read...

10:41 am

i don't know why you consider sunbathing a vice though. your body needs about 15 minutes of direct sunlight a day

10:41 am

unless you just fall asleep out there for hours... that might not be the best

10:41 am

Okay - I NEVER get the wine ref's either...help me out here

10:41 am

Yeah - but I try for more like 2 hours when I'm out

10:42 am

fireworks!

10:42 am

with all the skin cancer info and my Dutch/Scottish heritage - probably should be more careful - I also claim that sunscreen is against my religion

10:43 am

Super cartwheelies for yps!!!

10:43 am

yeah praise, its funny how we remember about God when we feel we are down or in need, but we forget to thank and appreciate what we have

10:43 am

thanks! that's lunch!

10:43 am

(my claim - not that of my actual religion)

10:43 am

that is true sean

10:43 am

I try really hard to thank him too

10:43 am

brb

10:44 am

I actually try to study scripture EVERY night...it helps to have a spiritual reserve

10:44 am

that's impressive, lex. i don't have the patience for the scriptures.

10:44 am

I try really hard to start especially frustrated prayers with everything I can think of to be thankful for.

10:45 am

a little each night...and mark what is meaningful as you go - it has changed my life ... given me more peace and patience

10:46 am

too allegorical and have so little to do with our time. but i'm glad they're there for people who get something out of them. i used to a whole lot more than i do now

10:46 am

**What is meaningful to you

10:46 am

back

10:48 am

that's good, lex. remembering to be thankful and content is a hard thing to do.

Not sure about the others, ajv.

1:34 pm

1:34 pm

Why lindrick? not that we aren't always

she lost her baby 13 years ago today and she is rather fragile

1:35 pm

1:35 pm

Ah.

1:35 pm

Ahhhh it is on her profile, I should have remembered.

1:35 pm

Didn't know the date.

she was on last night and obviously it was morning for her, she was in need of lots of support!

1:36 pm

it is so hard, my friend lost her first daughter amy

I can't even begin to imagine

1:37 pm

Amy at 5 months pregnant and I know that she thinks of her every day

1:40 pm

AM5.20 ANYONE

1:40 pm

***shuffles off to PB, hanging head in shame***

1:40 pm

Has there been any news on MrP at all?

1:41 pm

what about the ex's

1:41 pm

I haven't been on much so haven't seen anything FM (back to PB)

1:41 pm

Poor Katie McG! I hadn't even noticed!

FM surgery was a success but she is in quite a bit of pain Lickety said

1:42 pm

thx katie... your self-penalizing gave me another word

anyway i'm gone *poof*

1:42 pm

oh thank you Lind

1:44 pm

My last two words are: st 5/10 (last) and te 5/10 (one of the two first, I have the "jointing" one) Any help...?

1:44 pm

There's an am5/20? *looks eagerly*

1:45 pm

te5/10 - tapeworm babblet, number + How do you solve a problem like Mar--

1:45 pm

I only have the beer mug for the st which I am assuming isn't the last

1:46 pm

My last st5/10 is the tube for blovked vessels

1:46 pm

*blocked. Ends with Tolkein treeherd.

1:46 pm

Thanks vic, I knew watching holby city would help one day :-)

1:47 pm

thats my last st5 as well vi and thanks for the te

1:47 pm

have the bratlings met Gollum yet, Vi?

1:47 pm

You're welcome, all.

1:48 pm

Soon, Ata. They've just been pulled through the crack in the mountains by the "goblins."

1:48 pm

1:48 pm

1:48 pm

an 5.20 anyone

1:48 pm

I'd love to know their reactions to him

1:49 pm

I think I have just that of the first two te 5-s... Can you clue it's "mate"?

1:49 pm

an5/20 or am5/20?

1:49 pm

is there an am5/20?

1:49 pm

an5/20 is an addition to a building.

1:50 pm

I don't know, Katie McG. It seems unlikely. But last time sharons asked for the clue it said "am5"

1:50 pm

OMG All the episodes I've watched er, Holby City etc... and I couldn't find that st! Shame on me...

1:50 pm

it does seem unlikely

1:50 pm

I'll be sure to report back.

1:50 pm

Thanks vic, I can't get one to work :-)

1:51 pm

There is no am5/20 there are 2 am 5/12 tho

1:51 pm

Must have been a typo for "an," first time around. Thanks for confirming, FM.

1:51 pm

One te away from fireworks...

1:52 pm

ajv, do you have the mortise and te5 joint?

1:52 pm

1:52 pm

Check your sanity at the door, maybe. =P

1:53 pm

1:53 pm

Ah thats where I left it!

1:53 pm

Yes, I have that mortise+te5-joint-word already.

1:53 pm

Hmmm.... then I need to look for another te5, as well...

1:54 pm

I monkeyed it! Fireworks!

1:54 pm

how about the one that adds a female name ending to a number

1:54 pm

Yay for ajv!

1:54 pm

not implying that it's not worth every penny but it is a clear sign of addiction

1:55 pm

wd

1:55 pm

And to ancient Greece went we again...

1:55 pm

congrats ajv

1:55 pm

Bye, all! See you tomorrow!

1:55 pm

Congrats ajv shhhh Katie, don't mention the a word!

1:55 pm

It's a much more sensible value for money than many other games or recreations. I think it's a sign of good sense and impeccable reason.

1:56 pm

Lol I'm reading a book with an alcoholic in it, can only relate on a babble level!!

1:56 pm

Vi you sounded scarily like Haz there for a moment

1:56 pm

I'm going to go and watch the football for a bit, bbl to finish by last 50 :-)

1:56 pm

Not that its a bad thing or anything

1:57 pm

Too late, FM! You betrayed yourself there. I'm telling next time Haz comes on!

Just received a newspaper article from my German penpal, that an Austrailian judge stopped the court proceedings against drug dealers when the defense lawyer noticed that several jurors were playing sudoku instead of listening to the testimony. Haha

2:01 pm

the almost 300th anniversary of the almost warrior princess witnessed by the almost gk god predecessors run by the marching 2 x 2 crawler learning its vowels turned into a celebration for things which no longer are, but once were

2:02 pm

posted about it the other day inge - sudoku might have saved them from retribution lol

2:03 pm

:-)

4:13 pm

evening all

hello kazzer

4:14 pm

Hi Annie - funny old grid today

4:14 pm

HI Kazzer

i'm not really enjoying it today kazzer!

4:14 pm

hi mlf

4:14 pm

**delayed laughter** annie. end of the day rush.

LOL Sean! Get rid of those grumpy people :-)

4:15 pm

well it was a choice of footie or bib brother and babble so no compo really

4:15 pm

i wasnt enjoying it last night annie seems to be going somewhat better today still not a fun grid

that's so true kazzer

4:16 pm

i need help with one of the an words if anybody can see thieir list at the moment?

ho many words yesterday M?

*ML?

4:16 pm

i used to get nervous around customers like that, but i've gotten so used to it that i don't really take people's attitude anymore. in my job, most of the time i can just let someone rant away until they're tired of talking. problem solved, lol

4:17 pm

how many words did i find yesterday?

4:17 pm

I've got 7 - how many are there?

i only have about 1/2 of them ML

4:17 pm

ooops i meant AN 4/4 words that is

4:17 pm

Annie, you've been talking too much to get very far in the grid today :P

LOL...that's a technique i'm going to try next week...

4:18 pm

14 AN words i think kazzer

that's true Sean!

4:19 pm

i'm telling you, annie, it totally works. most people just want someone to yell at from time to time. after that, they usually like me for listening... but that always follows with them telling me all their problems every time they come in, lol

4:19 pm

do you have creatures?

4:20 pm

Kazzer you mean AN 7/

4:21 pm

an 4/4 - creature - antelope, unknown, 2 havent got, predate stuff, against things

sometimes a patient has come in to complain and i haven't spoken at all and they've gone away happy cos someone listened. But it's rare as they normally want the advice from me. I told one man to sit down and be quiet once - he was really aggressive but i'd got to know him after multiple complaints and he's like a pussy in my hands now!!

4:21 pm

last one creepy crawly lives in nest

do people ever threaten you Sean?

4:22 pm

Kazzer do you know a book called Flowers for Alger***?

4:22 pm

sounds like our jobs are fairly similar. although i suppose a lot of customer service jobs might be that way... but i can definitely relate

4:22 pm

yeah, i get a threat every now and then

4:22 pm

i do

4:23 pm

the first couple times i was weirded out, but i don't mind anymore really

4:23 pm

Kazz i have that AN word its the one UNDER that i ened

4:23 pm

hi all I'm stuck on the an 5/20 I read the clue but still stumped

4:23 pm

except this one guy who called me a racist and said i should get shot it face... that was a little uncalled for, lol

i find the threats scary...though i've only ever had to use my panic button once - that man freaked me out!!

4:23 pm

but he was insane

4:24 pm

dont have it either

bit harsh Sean LOL!!!!

4:24 pm

i thought so! :)

4:24 pm

Reader.. little orphan ***ie plus second vowel and * ray

4:25 pm

at least you have a panic button

i meant you for calling him insane LOL!!!!

4:25 pm

i had to ask for a clue for it as well

4:25 pm

i work in an office by myself 90% of the time

4:25 pm

oh, haha... well, he kinda was

4:25 pm

wow - how did I miss that Thank you

4:26 pm

no problem reader i felt the same way after i got the clue for it and figured out what the word was

4:26 pm

an 4/4 - little creepy craw;y plus first vowel

4:26 pm

he sat there spouting off all these racist remarks and telling me that people like me (white people) should get shot... and then he called me racist

yes i'm on my own a lot, but have a secretary now so she has to face the hassle too. the panic button only works when people come (only the volunteers did when i pressed it!!!!!). He was insane Sean - anyone threatening to shoot you is insane

4:26 pm

TY KAZZER!!!!!!!!

4:26 pm

not the crunchiest chip in the bag at the very least

LOL!!!

4:27 pm

no probs - just got it myself - which is bad cos its a babble favorite

4:28 pm

enate

4:28 pm

AT 4/5 please

4:28 pm

i dont have to deal with loonie tunes in my job - used to but moved

the sad thing is i agree with most of the complainants who contact me

4:28 pm

Kazzer oh geez that figures doent it lol

4:28 pm

oops - at least it wasn't good

4:29 pm

at4.5 Mah**** Ghandi

4:29 pm

i know, Annie. i feel that way a lot too... but i still have to expalin it to them in a way they can understand... "well, this is why your policy doesn't cover X" and so on... but in the end i always wish I could just make them happy

4:30 pm

ty

i feel sad when patients are waiting for surgery for something like cancer and their surgery is cancelled or something like that - sometimes i could cry

4:31 pm

yeah, that could be heart breaking

4:31 pm

BRB

4:31 pm

well, score one for your job being worse than mine... i rarely deal with sick/dying people

4:31 pm

i just read annie & sean's whole converation

4:32 pm

well , most of it anyway

what sort of insurance Sean?

4:32 pm

lol

4:32 pm

probably not the whole thing, geli... its being going on for a while

gosh, that's sad geli

4:32 pm

yeah that's what i said

4:33 pm

but it's pretty interesting lol

4:33 pm

but it's pretty interesting

4:33 pm

most auto insurance, but homeowners and renters and such as well... "personal lines"

4:33 pm

i don't have to mess with health or life insurance, which is nice

4:33 pm

brb

4:34 pm

Am i gooing to need a "fish" for the EN 5?

it's funny i feel like Sean and i were talking alone, and forgot everyone else. Glad you found it interesting...sometimes i've lurked and listened to conversations

4:34 pm

yeah

4:34 pm

but i just got on like 3 minutes ago

i think insurance is hard to deal with cos you often have to give bad news Sean

4:34 pm

i only have 10 words

LOL geli

4:35 pm

Annie Sean said brb loll

4:35 pm

yeah, i wasn't paying attention to anything else either, Annie. not until i saw my name in another persons text

4:35 pm

sean said he'd brb

4:35 pm

Can i have a clue for the EN 5 if anybody has it?

4:35 pm

true, annie... but i bet you deal with it more than i do

4:35 pm

en 5/10 en + spanish for aunt

4:35 pm

remember earlier annie

4:36 pm

WHEN YOU WISHED ME A HAPPY BIRTHDAY !?!?! :)

4:36 pm

4:41 pm

i used to take interest in drawing elephants

4:41 pm

4:41 pm

elephants are somewhat sacred in Thailand, Annie

there's a UK version with the place of Tump being taken by Alan Sugar

4:42 pm

okay i needed the fish for that one tyvm got it

4:42 pm

Hey y'all

4:42 pm

Hi lex

4:42 pm

4:42 pm

ELEPHANTS!

4:44 pm

i like your roomie!

4:44 pm

haha, annie. i thought we were over that!

4:44 pm

but knight probably does

4:44 pm

three years kazzer

4:44 pm

i've never seen the celebrity one, MLF

LOL Sean

4:45 pm

knight i thought thats what it was but i just cant spell it right lol

4:45 pm

Sean same thing but for charity instead

4:45 pm

I gotta get going... time to close up shop and get ready for practice with the band tonight. see you all later

4:45 pm

ty knight got it

4:46 pm

is it a double cons?

4:46 pm

i didn't get much babbling done today... too chatty

And you're in a band? we ust chat about that next time...byeeeee Sean

4:46 pm

thanks, knight!

4:46 pm

not to be cynical but the show is to line the pockets of the producers, and a charity gets a small benefit

4:47 pm

bye Annie, remind me next time *poof*

that is cynical Knight!!

4:47 pm

knight the celebs probably pocket more then is donated just to be on the show

4:47 pm

yes mlf

4:47 pm

there is NO altruism in television

you're prob both right :-(

4:50 pm

I am trying to figure out how ex8 can be used in a sentence.

4:50 pm

maybe you have to treat ex7 as an nounal adjective

well guys, i'm off to get some sleep, got to be up early tomorrow (dinosaurs was used earlier Knight)

good night all

4:50 pm

g'nite annie!

4:50 pm

that species is ex7. Those two species are ex7. I just don't see how ex8 could ever be used.

4:51 pm

the list of ex8 is getting longer every year

4:51 pm

so it's a noun?

oh yes, i've never heard of the 8 before.

4:51 pm

well, like a conservative person is a conservative

night night Kris

4:52 pm

Maybe you can say that an ex7 species is an ex7

*poof*

4:52 pm

it's odd, I know - I've never seen it in text

4:53 pm

"The survival value of intelligence is that it allows us to ex7 a bad idea, before the idea ex8 us." Trust Karl Popper to use a stupidhead word

4:53 pm

Thanks, Ata!

4:53 pm

okay, so it is being used as a transitive verb in that example

4:54 pm

but that is *really* pushing its reality!

4:54 pm

yup

4:54 pm

that indicates that ex7 is causative and not a result which is hard to comprehend as possible

4:55 pm

thats what you get from philosophers...

4:56 pm

its funny those words are in the grid, though. I was thinking this morning about writing a book on paleobtology, and focussing on mass ex*****ions

4:57 pm

it is hard to think about an idea being extinct. I don't think that is logically possible

4:57 pm

if you can think about it to say it is ex7, then it isn't ex7 (sorry)

4:57 pm

knight said a WORD - PB knight

4:58 pm

sorry, sorry, so sorry

4:58 pm

very true, knight

4:58 pm

me bad, fifty lashes with a q

4:59 pm

What would you like in the PB, Knight? Twizzlers and beer - does that go with philosophy?

4:59 pm

so i would have to disagree with Popper's supposition

4:59 pm

thats always what Popper is there for

4:59 pm

the conclusion belies the supposition. real deep

hey again, y'all - most everyone finish?

5:00 pm

6:36 pm

can i get a clue for the first ti 5/6 combo (if it is one!), plz/

6:36 pm

Hi, eieios

in theatre there are many sound positions, sound designer, mixer, number two, who does mixing when the mixer is away, and runs things backstage, and the sound number 3 who fits microphones, and runs the mics during the show

6:36 pm

and shoeless

hi jellen

6:37 pm

hey, jellen!

6:37 pm

cool

6:37 pm

long time

hey eieis

6:37 pm

firts ti5/6 is like ading a tinge of color (ti4/5) but add a cons into the middle of the word

lol sory eieios

6:38 pm

i

6:38 pm

i'

all the performers wear a microphone, and all the instruments are miced, and the mixer basically mixes the sound coming from all the different microphones, which generally runs to about 70, depending on cast numbers, in real time, and makes it sound coherent and unintrusive, and nice.

6:38 pm

i've been called worse, nance

its the best rush ever! and its teh least celebrated part of theatre

but its my passion so i can run on for hours and will stop

my fingers aren't working again today

6:39 pm

6:39 pm

6:41 pm

Great fun

6:41 pm

My sister was Ann Miller's right hand for many many years

6:42 pm

6:42 pm

DONE!

The old mind boggles But nowadays he pots the lot 'Cos I wear these goggles' Snooker loopy nuts are we Me and him and them and me We'll show you what we can do With a load of balls and a snooker cue Pot the reds then, skrew back For the yellow green brown blue pink and black Snooker loopy nuts are we We're all snooker loopy Now Terry the taff was born in a gaff In the valleys of the land of song And as the reds he puts to bed He likes to sing along And if I win he says with a grin It can only help me can't it I'll celebrate, I'll buy another eight 'Hairbrushes for me barnet' Now old Willy Thorne his hair's all gone And his mates all take the rise His opponent said cover up his head Cos it's shining in my eyes When the light shines down on his bare crown It's a cert he's gonna walk it It's just not fair giving off that glare 'Perhaps I ought to chalk it
