You are SO helpful,. Ata. Diolch yn fawr.
shw mae, ata?
*bows* crwth!
what is it samantha?
Or maybe 'sit mae, Ata'?
*groans* don't make me try and remember my far too sketchy Welsh!
Today's Official Phantom is: Synecdoche
I know I'm welcome, ata, but I was asking ho you are.
How"
I'm fine :) lurking in Oregon!
How's the art show going, Ata, which is why I was asking how you are and joping yo'd reply, 'Dda iawn, diolch'.
ooh a baby one
hi all
hi dee
ti 6x 2
Hi Dee
I'm dong much better spelling in Welsh than I am in English right now! ROFLOL.
Dda iawn, diolch I'm sure! :) Actually it doesn't start for another 2 weeks, but I've been soooo busy getting stuff ready. framing stuff, making prints, and it all looks *so* good
hi angel ru...
hi dee
hi hug
Oh, ata, I thought you had to get it all to rights the moment ou got there.
I'm glad it looks good. Good luck with the show, keep us updated
luckily no. but I have nearly everything sorted now. My art seems to have transforned from my own stuff into professional art. amazing what a frame will do!
co 9 if not called
I've got everything that has been called and I still need 4 more 6's
stalled at 41 here
ruru - all the 7's and the 9 have been called
sorry arrived late..

Ata - you might also be amazed, if you lurk and listen, at how various folks your art.
i have co 7 + jo 7 + sy 7 what is the 4th one?
WI
*interpret your art, I meant to say.
wi 7
I'm going to! And actually I've learnt quite a bit over the last few days - I quite randomly did a doodly knotwork based on the Batman symbol and I've had so many comments on that and what is says about how cool my art is. It's amazing how something that;s just a "throw away" piece can have a big effect!
firewords
Ata - keep on being amazed but make sure you make money from it. I've been amazed but not taken that opportunity in the past. Go for it!
congrats dart
congrats dart
I will :) everything is for sale at the art show. Hopefully I should make some decent money from it, cross fingers!

I'm back home, I took 34 hours to reocvoer from the freezing wind, soaking rain, wet clothes for hours and no hope of drying ot anytime soon.
urf urf urf. I know the feeling. I used to work up the road from there at an activity centre
I had 2 early nights, but got up, due to hot flushes midway through 2nd night home. Drank wine, got ratted. It's6.36am and my son, who's a computer nerd, but has had a pinnt or two of cloudy 'real' beer' has just gone to bed, so maybe I should go to my room, too?
ci6
probably. or just stay up!
Ata - I used to work on Mochras (Shell Island) just down the road in Llanbedr.
Ata - did you work at Maes Artro?
do you know the adventure centre there - it used to be called The Ranch. In Llanbedr. Was a Northants Youth Centre thing
Oh hecl! I know The Ranch. Yes.
fireworks...night night all..see you at the next flip

It was actually in Llanfair, you know. It shattered our peace, living there,for a while, Ata.

hey mr. P how did lickety work it out with google
Good Morning MrP
Morning! How many words are there today?
85
85 only, MonkeyG. Good morning all.
85 monkey
hi sprite
Oh wow, there's a chance!
look no k's
morning sprite
good morning Sprite...fancy meeting you here!
yayyyy no Ks! Lucky day. Hiya PAV, lol, it is a small world... MonkeyG, how is Walter and what did the results say?
good morning all
BRB
hi josh
Yes, Monkey, I started an hour ago, and am down to just 31, no lists or aids...
hi josh..
sorry, was called away :) hi to those that came in!
off to bed.. earyl day tomorrow.. good luck everyone
OK, back. Husband woike up and hasd to be coffeed.
sleep well ruru, pretty dreams
MonkeyG, how is Walter and what did the test results say?
wb mrP
do you drip him or just perk him up monkey
ill improving but still not fully well. The test showed NO mono. So now it's a mystery. We have an appt at our regular doctor this afternoon... he's back from vacation.
Hee, hee.! Actually I padded him out. We have a Senseo coffee pad machine.
STILL improving, not ill improving...
ah, good, regular doctors look in a different way. Still improving is good :)
Improving is good. And I have made the moral decision that I will not put him through more blood tests or something just to see what this has been. I will comply if the doctor thinks we should get mroe tests, but I won't do it just to attach a name to this past few weeks.
ah, I found an ending. Now things are looking up.
very wise, MonkeyG. Follow your heart and good sense after you have seen the doc.
mrP how did lickity sort out the problem - he's not paying for anything is he?
I guess I'll have him look at my back too, but I don't know what he can do since my insurance doesn't cover physiotherapy.
good evening everyone
hi mari, no he isn't... google pages will be taken down any day now
Hi Flosey!
let him look anyway, MonkeyG. And go from there.
hi flosey :)
Yup. Not like I can hide it anyway, the way I'm walking, and he's a good doctor so he's want to look.
monkey, you don't have to have insurance for a physio/chiro do you?
and I thought even the standard insurance in the Netherlands covered 9 treatments, MonkeyG, are you sure?
hi flosey :)
hi sprite :))
hi mrp!
Yes. We have the basis pakket through OHRA. I had ten treatm,ents for my neck last year, and found out the hard way the basis doesn't cover it. Right now we can't afford aanvullend.
hi mrP, I said wb earlier but I guess you did not see it. How is the arm? And your patience?
hi chic!! how are you girl!?
hi chic
sorry sprite, have been in and out of the babble screen (naughty of me not to have checked the chatlog)
Maybe th edoctor knows a way around it-- send me straight to an orthopedist or something. Anything in a hospital is covered.
Hi sprite, I'm ok.
there are physiotherapists working in hospitals too :) Who knows what your doc can come up with.
I'll talk to him about it.
haha! according to per capita, Australia is leading the olympics by 60 gold medals! LOL
Otherwise this WILL go away, just may take a while. Turns out to be a bad one. Oh well.
hm, no expensive hotel today
No expensive hotel?
no hi4on.
OH!
ok, everybody confess. You all tried it anyway, right? :)
No but I tried my maiden name, which just replaces the L with anopther letter...
ha, anyone can get into the Paris Hilton, it is easy
roflol
LOL I did!!!!!!!!!Morning all
Hee hee hee!
hi cait
Morning all
hi Kazz
Anyone got the co 5 after the co4 round things with teeth
BRB
hi cait and kazz
mrp how are you these days? Hi Kazz
good morning all
Well if Sir Elton can't be in, then why should the future Pres of the USA...not to mean you Mr P.
mrP is the present, once and future one. Not the white house guy.
Morning Orange and Pav
kazzer,,,do you mean the large shell, used for sounding no4s
hi Orange
thank you :)
ty PAV3 - saw it as your clue appeared
oh, thanks for the clue... got the co9 off that
first 60 were more or less easy. saving the last 23 for tomorrow morning
g'night all
sleep well josh
didn't mean to offend anyone...but Ms Hi4on is the news nowadays...she paid someone very well to have written her script...
and am finally finding some bigger ones with that find
I don't think it is possible to offend Ms Hi4on. As long as it gets her publicity.
Night josh,sleep well
hi all, at last!
Hi jilli!
hi jilli!
hi jilli :)
jilli! *hug* Look at the icon theme list, lots of great additions came in yesterday.
hi jilli
g'morning jili
I did, sprite -- good to see!
good ones, aren't they :) The people that are on in my evening are very creative about it.
ok i got 10 more instead of sleeping. i'm just going to finish
if anyone has suggestions for icon themes, please tell me! I will put them in right away. Also for those who missed the change: you can always check my profile for the icon themes to come. If you put me in friends, you have access at all times. Or bookmark this URL: http://tinyurl.com/6z7unz
it's going to be fun seeking out the icons and factoids :)
Hi. Thank you Jill
lol josh... you addict!
hi lady
In February I should be able to find paid work and can go pro. Or maybe I'll ask for it for my birthday in January. Thn I can do icon themes too!
Waves
Waves back
skheiny asked about you, lady, last night. She was worried because she had not IM'ed with you for a long time and did not see you here.
Hi herin (waving back)
that would be great, MonkeyG
Oh. THanks Sprite. hi Caitlyn. I will IM her now.
hi herin -- what are you thanking me for?
I know it's not that much money but we can't rent movies either and I cut my own hair and only buy third-hand clotyhes, so I'm not just being cheap about it.
I told her you had exciting things going on privately. So I bet she is curious now ;)
tough going, eh monkey!
MonkeyG, nobody should judge somebody else's wallet. You are the only one who knows and that does not make you cheap. Hope things will get a little easier soon.
Could be worse, Jilli. We have a very nice apartment in a very good area and I make sure we eat well, seeing as to what I am a cook and all. Just have to seriously prioritize and still have trouble keeping out of our overdraft protection. This too shall pass.
aaaaaaaaand fireworks. so much for waking up to babble!
Jill a while ago you mentioned scanning in pictures. My mum today wanted to send copies to me for my birth mum. Kodak wanted $50 for the privilege. I remembered what you said so now im going to do that
Thanks Sprite, they will. They are already beeter than before... youknow we were illegal and without health insurance for seven years, and without proper heat and so forth for several of those.
wtg josh! Well do4 and good luck with the withdrawal tomorrow morning.
Congrats josh
i can handle it. i promise
tough facebook scramble game to tend to when i wake up. i will make do
ah, good alternative, josh :)
I must get my shower, see you all later, bye
These days we're insured citizens, I almost have a degree, husband works full time an dwe live in a fabulous location with our wonderful little boy. So it sure could be worse.

that's great, herin!

wow MonkeyG, tough times indeed. No way but up, I guess :)
There's Walter; have fun folks!
enjoy and hug him MonkeyG
Monkey can you wait 30secs
any cw words today?
Monkey if you go to Microsoft office sight there is heaps of fun things to do there for free (you just have to download it and print it) also Itunes have free podcasts too
Sprite i just started.
could have been your first word, of course :)
but i will look right now for you
My net is being a pain in the butt
how dares it!
Well i haven't used it all day
ah, it feels rejected. Well, that is something I can relate too :)
We luvs you Sprite
you do, I know :) And it is mutual.
:D
gar my net is not working NOW.
hm, no4 of the cw words I know, and my monkeys come up empty too. Guess it is fairly safe to think this grid is cw word free.
I'm off to bed, goodnight all
The only CW words in the dictionary are Cwm and Cwms
sleep well, flosey *hug*
oh! I thought there was something like cwrth as well. Guess that is crwth then.
thanks lady :D
and thanks Sprite for taking over the Icon Themes - I just checked them, quite a list
isn't it fun, flosey :) Some people got enthusiastic and wow, they had a bunch.
perhaps this will get a few more players involved
FIREWORKS for me - off to get ready for work
I am looking forward to lots of them, but right now the Favorite Cookie comes to mind. That will be a grand day!
wtg Kazz
wooot Kazz, finished before work. Well done!
Hello Babblers!!
HI Lore and Yah Kaz
hiya lobodana! Great icon :)
Look Jillibus I remembered how to do it!!! Thanks Princess
suppose jilli has gone to bed
couldnt get here any earlier been doing my taxes for the year oh my head hurts
I don't think so, but she might be off to get milk and banana.
ohhhh lobo, stressful work. Are they do4?
so hows this grid? should i ask?
it is ok. Not as nasty as some small ones. And interesting enough to last for a bit.
yep always submit on line
I do too, it is a lot easier than in writ. Congrats on getting it behind you again, lobo :)
so easy to type words in chat having to go backwards I do not like to go backwards only forwards lol!!!\
lobo, do you want me to send you the expert?
anyways better go click over there before i go to PB!
its okay princess this way my brain has to work and thats how I like it but thanks for the offer
ok, I seemed to remember you told us you lost it, didn't realise it was by choice :)
Sprite:::}}}}}} You would offer the shirt off your back to anyone !!! one of the many gifts you have thanks hugs
Not by choice but I always take "the hard road" lol
lol, guess I would. Though maybe not out in the streets. Unless the other one needed it more than I...
like that icon sprite lol
wtg lore for your theme icon! I hadn't gone to bed, but when the hiccup happened went to check email :)
hehehe, isn't it good :)
wb jilli :D
yay jilli off to look at yours
must learn to narrate them makes them so much more interesting like jilli does
Hi. just rattled off an Email to Skeiny Thank you Sprite
I didn't do much narrating this time!
yes, I have been thinking about that too, lobo. Only thing is, where do I fit in the text... I want the theme to be visible... Wait, maybe below the theme for the day!
now must go to the grid where herin .... oh there she is waves to herin and her 5 sisters!!
yvw lady, it is always nice to know that people think of you, right :)
hm, let me test that
lore, I see your new icon when I click on it but the old one still shows here and I've refreshed twice!
good idea, sprite!
jilli i dont know how that happens maybe the cliche from back before
as i haven't had a pc at night she has missed me
maybe it will show up eventually -- did you refresh more than once when you changed it?
ok, let's see how this works out.
not perfect, hm...
herin can you check my icon what comes up please
sprite, it looks fine to me!
A runner? Is that Cathy?
yep
thats what i got
thats what i got
jilli maybe try again
I see your runner, lobo.
thanks herin
so how come jilli doesnt?
does anyone know, is there a way to make text bold in the profile?
Jills pc doesn't want to play?
have you force-refreshed, jilli?
I did -- still no runner -- amybe I have to reboot
forgotten how to force-refresh...
remember to click on a spot on the site when you refresh, so you are not in the Add word window, and then Control F5.
that might be it jilli good thinking!!
um F4 i think
Thats the one thanks sprite
that did it -- thanks, sprite :)
wtg jilli :)
yay jilli!!!
Jay jill
darn, apparently not. I tried [b] and [/b] but no joy.
down to the last ti6 24..any clues....it's between ti4 5 and ti 4 4

From what I saw Google pages just worked the next day - I think he is still looking at alternatives
lol Sprite - I was being discreet
nobody seems to know, Katie, but right now it still runs on Google Pages, and mrP said that will be gone any day now.
katie, I'm not sure he did -- mrp said googlepages will shut down soon or something.
I thought you were being cryptic, lol. Thanks, found it :)
Kiwi emailed Lickety with a whole bunch of possible solutions, that much I do know.
I have to go to bed -- house-painter coming in the morning...

good morning everyone:)
hi jean
good morning everyone
good morning Eva:)
are there some weird cw words today?
cw words??????
just asking....having trouble with the c's
Good Morning everyone.
morning elder
good morning elder:)
hello elder
Just read that Eva, is having trouble with the c 'words I would like to point out, following my scan of this grid that I expect to have trouble finding most of the words ::)
Hello PInk, you and little one ok?:)
actually it hasn't been aful-got to 14 left fairly smoothly, but those c's are nasty.
awful that is
hello eva,pink.elder, jean
just came up for air
hi saddy
lol hello Saddy:)
Hello Sadie..
Hello Jean..
whats up?
what's up here is rain and more rain. This has been the wettest and coolest summer anyone can remember. Had to start the woodstove yesterday morning-in mid August!
Eva, seeing that you are going well ... I will persevere..:)
That actually sounds good. I miss cool summer rains. Here we never get rain between April and November - and its H*O*T*
go for it elder...my frustration tolerance isn't very deep
I know - the first summer I spent in Israel I kept thinking it wa going to rain....clouds in the morning over the ocean, but then like clockwork it would all clear up. Very odd of a New Englander
aaah rain... i miss rain so much!!! i moved to a coastal city after getting married... we've only had ONE proper rain this season
I'll send you both some
morning all
Eva, Ditto, there have been days when if you did not know you would think Autumn days with some of the weather we have experienced... generally a poor show for what should be our summer months.
i used to live in a hilly city before... lots of rain there!!!!
hey carlee
good morning carleekat:)
hi elder...saddy
Hello Carleekat... :)
hi jean
I am thankful, though, for avoiding the excessive heat that we usually have. But everyone is getting a bit grumpy and depressed and we are cornering the market on vitamin D.
lol
its bloody cold here right now eva
When were you in Israel Eva? I am from Philly but I used to spend my summers in the Poconos. Philly was hot and muggy but in both places I'd love the summer rains.
My vegetable garden has no idea what is going on. You must be in the same weather system as we are carlee
LOL re; the Vit D comment.. The garden e.g flowers and veg are confused with what they should be doing..
Michnick-I used to go to Israel often. Thought of making aloyah when I was younger, and then went every year for work. And have lots of family there. But haven't been in about 6 years. When did you move there?
aliyah...fingers aren't quite awake yet.
we do , however, have a lovely crop of mushrooms growing out of the garage floor. Don't know enough to know if they are edible.
half way will return later hopefully time permitting, Happy Babbling everyone:)
bye jean
Eva, if safe you would have a good feed there.. is there no one you can think of to test them out...
Bye Jean.
Hi I'm back my hubby called from the store. I've been here since 1985. I came for a year, never thought of aliya but I just fell in love with the lifestyle and the family oriented society. I have seven kids!
mushrooms are one of those things where you really need an expert(-:
Eva. yes it would be best.... just wondering ....
wow! Quite a story! What section of Jerusalem do you live in?
We live in the fartherst north suburb - Neve Yaakov.
I can think of few people, who I would be tempted to offer them too... :)
elder-we could make a joint list(-:
I can't remember if I've ever been to Neve Yaakov. Is it newish?
Not really, one of the neighborhoods built after '67. But it was originally built for immigrants from Arab countries. Only recently have more Americans moved in, but we've been here almost 19 years!
LOL !!! you could make huge bucks.. on the street .. bet there would be a good market for your goods... ::)
still have 14 left. Looks like that's as far as I'm going to get. Now if those mushrooms were hallucinogenic we'd be in big business!! Something odd though about mushrooms growing on concrete.
Later, a bientot and lehitraot everyone.
bye Eva!
Bye Eva.. and think about those mushrooms ..... dollars!! could be yours..
will do elder
hello everyone!
hi annie how are you this am?

Aussie, Give Mr. Aussie a great big hug from me for taking care of you....great hubby
yet you sit for a three hour bollywood flick with its songs and all :|
I will Annie.... I will...
yeap..we only get one or 2 / year...
I just popped in to see how the grid was today.... I was too wretched to finish last night.... tiring work all this being looked after !
There was a movie from Iran shown in the US that was wonderful. Of course I dont remember the name but it was about a little boy and a pair of skates...wonderful
i figure I can sit for 6 hours total / year
Aussie, it is good to hear that you have a kind, loving husband who looks after you and your little one when you are unwell... take it easy :)
aussieeeeeeeeeeee - I heard you weren't doing well ((((HUGS))))

Finished..

i have gotten so i'm down to drinking only two types of alcohol - long island ice tea & corona extra with lime. i don't drink that often anymore though
coffee is the drink of the moment
hey merk
hey bzzzzzzzzzzzzz
i put mine in a chilled shot glass ,then take the bottle of mix and wave it slowly over the top of the shot glass and set it down again..good alcohol tends to bruise with mix or cubes;)
Tell me about your icon, Nance.
I don't either nance, very occassionally, when the daughters come over - more often just wine
today's theme is cutlery
i liked the red handles - lol
We drink a lot of wine here. I like to have a glass with dinner.
nance,did you see my recipie for long island iced tea from my bartending days??
cutlery? i thought todays theme was high jump + pole vaulting?
could someone help me with the do6?
we do too bea and hi
ut o - did i read it wrong?
2 guys' names
nice looking knife set though nance
pole vaulting and cutlery, you wouldn't want to mix the two!
does sprites list have different info from what was left on babblers list?
Good day to all DO6 is two men's names - like the guy from miami vice
lol - if i did, i could use it as a type of olympic game - cutlery throwing
hey miss
do6 a 2 male names together
thank you flosey - lol
hey nance!
the first is another spelling of JFK's first name and the second part is short for a famous duck
hey flosey and harp and crossy!
guess not....:/
do6 - another stoopid word.
no reverse that
howdy miss;)
Lots of those lately.
lol harp - i just read your chat
Ooh. Snap. Found the niner.
thanks west
yvw harp and hi
help with the no6 and the to6 anyone?
ok - so what should my icon be for today?
yay Judi - wtg!
Nance, pole vault or high jump
I counted 19 unusual words today
But I love your cutlery.
nance, what is wrong with your knives?
crossy takes his long island iced tea recipie and puts it back in the vault;(
or cutlery if you like the handles!
to6--same 1st 3 as word befor + gerund
clue please for co 5,16. Thanks

no6-no+ po**** justice?
ty ... the lack of vowels is challenging me this morning
wilt
my mom's name was bea and one of her husbands was buzz....
Carp!
I once had a long island ice tea..they're powerful
Was your mom's name a nickname?
sorry - i was on brb again without notice - lol - ok, what's today's theme if it's not cutlery?
when made properly they really taste like ice tea but they kick your ass!!
when i lived in queens it drove me nuts, when people would say "let's go to the island" and then they wouldn't cross a bridge!
speaking of long island
so I found out..sneak right up on you
lol
that's the fun of it - lol
if you make them rightpug,after just 2 you cant feel your legs
yeah, it was really beulah but she got rid of it in the 40's when the Borden's cow named Beulah came out
queens is actually part of the island but nobody thinks of it that way
son ordered one for me, thought I was getting an innocent cooler!
Nance today is pole vault or high jump
hmmm? no6 not working? need the no6/21 but can't get it -must be doing something wrong
lol flo,there are 4 different alcohols in a long island iced tea:))
that's why i like them - with my legs always hurting, it's a comfortable break for me.
no6- no + Hemingway wrote many po**** works

Babs - I've been shopping for candle making supplies and unique containers because I'm starting a little hobby business. Going to sell at the local farmers market and maybe a few up-coming craft shows. Believe me - I'm doing it all on a self-imposed shoestring budget.

Waiting for my ship to come in!

my ship hit a reef and sank 10 years ago,been salvaging the wreck ever since:)
cross hair you are very runny.

Yeah, I'm pretty psyched about it. I have one of my gal pals doing my artwork right now for a sign - she's going to make it on the computer. Then we have to mini-me a design for some business cards. I'm still just really in the mad scientist phaze of it all right now.
Well, mine might arrive this week...we'll see!

Lol, Phae. I was wondering the same.
I need to go back to sleep. or do something like dishes.

Judi, where are you going to sell your candles?
Thanks a lot, Babs. I'm really excited to get started. I just have to get organized first. I hope to be ready to start selling the first of next month.

Phae - see my post at 9:58.
What's your concept for the candles?

its ok Asgreen...I am trying hard not to drink any more.
I did, but don't know what area of the states you are talking about.

but, what's your idea babs?
ok...then ...if you did, I'd help you..
get acid reflux..you will quit coffee;(( im a tea totaler now cause of it;/
I need to reduce in the next two weeks...
Can't stand tea...so it's coffee, just in moderation
ci6/21?
I like tea, but very fond of coffee with additives.
c'mon babs, tell me!
Well, I could tell you Babs, but then I'd have to kill you. Ha! Actually, I'm being zipped-lip about my marketing plan until after the business launch. Stay tuned for more details. I will say though, I'm using all soy wax and all organic/natural and recycleable products in my production.

Now, I am going for the fun gym....I can not believe Mcdonalds just used the word wholesome to describe their food in a commercial. now thats not truth in advertising.

thanks! **looking**
of coure, I am counting challenged...
no - it is def a co5
true... can i get a 2nd opinion? :P
only joking
LOL
holyyyympics!! i love the olympics!
where is my new icon?
hi beeze
hi beeze!
is that you playing mini golf?
hey kj and Sean! there is my new icon! yes it is - that is my "sport" icon from yesterday - lol!
it was either that or a basketball or volleyball pic from like 8th grade
remind me again where in TX you are from beeze
i'm from Dallas! whoo hoo D-town!
oooo - should have done 8th grade! - bet we could have laughed at that
actually just south of Dallas - small town called Midlothian
yes, well... i think that even 8th grade volleyball classifies as more of a sport than mini golf
that is why i chose the mini golf - i thought it was rather funny!
what sean, haven't seen the chinese sweeping the medals in mini golf?
it's a nice pic, beeze, we are just teasing
I am in D - don't know why
don't know why you are in D?
you don't like it there?
yep - don't know what possessed me : )
agreeing with kje on the teasing... also, what time is the mini golf on? and do they have a water version?
not living it yet
where did you move from?
oooo - water golf!!!!
i'd love to hear the commentators on water putt-putt
I moved from Baltimore
it is eastern time mini golf at Myrtle Beach and no there is no water version, although i think per capita Myrtle Beach holds the world record for mini golf courses
I grew up in a Dallas suburb, but lived in B-more 10 years and got use to the NE
the water version would be puttthh puttthh
i'm actually not surprised, beeze... i was there once as a kid and i still remember that there were mini golf courses every other block!
haha, kje
i'm still adjusting to the NE - i loved Dallas - i lived in North Dallas and loved it - you have to experience Dallas
tell me what you loved about it beeze
it is crazy the mini golf courses - that was in the winter right after I went to see David Copperfield - thus the coat
convert me
probably no water golf in the winter
ice putt putt - that could be even funnier!!!
I liked the convenience of the city, I live in SC now, so it is way different - everything is spread out. They have the blue law - limited shopping - Dallas has everything
li6/24 anyone?
That sounds a little weird b/c Dallas is huge, but everywhere you can get everything. There is no Whole Foods market here, no Nordstrom
still a heathen, must do better beeze
god! that would be a challenge, kje. it would be very cool though... it'd be like a winter wonderland! a whole mini golf course set up on an ice rink...
My favorite thing is Publix so far.
do you have the 4 and 5 before it smoove?
that is pretty bad....no natural grocery stores
The blue law - you cannot buy alcohol on Sunday!
wait that would then be like putt putt with a hockey puck?
i think the difference is you are comparing city to rural life
I don't think so.
are all the D's do?
And on Sunday you cannot buy anything even at Target unless it is a necessity - they have ropes around the clothing areas
until 1:30pm
li 4 - li + **oo **oo train
then add consonant for the 5
then add plural for the 6
you might have to use a hockey puck, i supose... so it would be like... mini ice hockey?
puck puck
thanks so much.
yes, but i live in the capitol city, and so it is just odd
lol puck puck
yw
haha, kje
puck puck goose?
my kind of joke :)
I like a walkinng city beeze.... small restaurants, cool independent shops... dallas is the land of the shopping mall and chains
are all the D words do words?
yes, all do
ok thanks
for a second i read those do's as the word "do" and i didn't know what you were talking about...
you
the capital has no organic grocer??? that is surprising... but you do have lots of farms around you - is there a good farmers amrket
ok, i need DO6 and a T6 to finish...
you'd probably like charleston or charlotte
do 6 - miami vice star shortened
there are some good little shops downtown - i am not a mall fan myself - i actually hate them - i like small one of a kind shops
no organic grocery, but we do have a farmers market
I will guess that the t you need is ti6 - a cross between a tiger and a lion?
thanks!
cute do clue...
Good evening all..........
i'm done!
i thought that was the liger?
hi cait
yay hursh!
yay hursh!
Congrats hurshy
i thought the same thing Sean - this is a different hybrid! lol
woohoo hursh!!!
i don't know if that ti6 is a cross... i know there's liger and tigon and i think it depends which is the mom...
depends on which is mother/father, SeanS
depends sean on which is mom and which is dad - dad comes first
oh, yes, this is an alt sp of the ti
any sort of cat is cute in my book.
off to sudoku!
beeze - dallas is OK, it is just an adjustment...same for you... just have to get to know it better, but the heat doesn't help : )
no - the heat is a nightmare!
especially in the concrete jungle that is Dallas
ah well... you see how much i know about hybrid animals...
Heat !!! Whats that??? Our summer lasted about a week and now looks like its gone!!
Sean, you know more now!
my 10 favorite cities would be (in order) NYC, SF, Paris, Vancouver, Seattle, Boston, DC, Chicago, Montreal, Geneva
I pet a Galapagos Turtle in July - they live for years and years, but they aren't hybrids, i just think they are cool
Austin and Houston would come before Dallas in TX
so would FW
May I have some help on the co 5/16? It is my last word and I am completely stumped!
i've never been to SF, but would love to go - i love NYC. Austin is a great city and FW is definitely better than Dallas - i agree with that - way more laid back
so, why does that male come first? why would they even have to have a different name for the same cross breed, just different parental sexes?
a shell
Evening all
Thanks so much missbeeze!!
co - a shell
yw sw!
Hi FM!!!
hey FM!
Thanks all! Have a great day!!
why does the male come 1st - LOLOLOL - uh, cause it is a male world sean
congrats sw - and bye
Congrats and ye swviola
Hello cait :) and Hi missB!
because males always come first
lol
LOL miss
SF is wonderful beeze - if you ever make it out that way let me know and I will tell you my favorite shops and restaurants
and why would you ask that question in a chat full of women, sean??? you are gutsy - LOL
i will! i will def get some advice before i go from ya - i would like to go next year
Sean may have been trying to show that he thinks women should have more opportunity!
right Sean??
Oh SF, I have many happy memories from there.
haha, kje! no more gutsy than the next guy...
I think Sean likes to live dangerously :)
On the edge!!
OK, just checked... at least 2 other guys are lurking... and they didn't jump in sean... so you are gutsier : )
well, i am somewhat of a feminist... although i don't classify myself as such... i'm more just all for equality in every aspect
that too, FM :P
has anyone heard about the latest olympic opening-show scandal? that the little girl they showed singing actually only lip-synched because the REAL little girl whose voice we all heard was "too uhly" to represent her country!?
How are you cait and hub?
Hi Eva just listening to that on the news thats really bad
Yes EvaN, it was all over the news this morning!
i just heard. im FLOORED!
She has buck teeth, China didn't want buck teeth on their evening news.
What with that and the fact that some of the fireworks were pre recorded, make syou think!
Im ok FM, tired after doing the "deaded shopping"How about you?
Also, they've been lying about the number of tickets sold.
i dont mind the firework thing SO much because at least the fireworks did really happen...but putting one girl onstage in place of another -- thats just repulsive to me.
deaded shopping LOL sounds like one of my typos! Im OK, bit tired.
how many words today?
85
wow - that is just wrong
I wonder what the UK will do in the 2012 games
85 Alex
just another 83 to find then!
i hope that isn't true
LOL Alex
missbeaze: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/ sport/othersports/olympics/2545387/Bei jing-Olympics-Faking-scandal-over-girl -who-sang-in-opening-ceremony.html
You hope which isn't true, missbeeze?
that is sad - for both girls
wow... i hadn't heard anything about that! what kind of message does that send to the poor girl who has to stand behind a curtain and sing? and of course to the girl who has to lip sy4 as well... both those girls will place too much importance on beauty
the little girls - that is sad.
Oh it's quite true. Sorry.
ickkkkkkkkkk
the sick part is that when you read the article, the "powers that be" dont seem to think they did anything wrong because it was all "for china"
i didn't even mean to say beauty, since it is rather arbitrary... too much emphasis on looks is what i should've said
there was soooo much pressure on china to pull this off perfectly - they got a a bit out of hand
I think it's a cultural difference. The Chinese seem a little bit baffled by the outrage, and a little bit baffled over the fact that we're publicizing this
i guess when youre talking about a government that has SUCH control over their people, this shouldnt be surprising...
But they put too much pressure on themselves to make it bigger and better than the last games
speaking of women's equality... China is a little bit behind on that as well... might have something to do with not thinking it is a big deal
the question I have when these things come out is who and how it was discovered... and to what end
but doesn't that apply to every country that hosts cait? God know what we are going to pull out of the hat?
sean - you are so crusin'!
Yeah. I read a hidden, not-so-subtle message in the opening ceremonies: "Hey Rest Of World! We have a gazillion people and we can move them in coordinated units for about whatever purpose we wish. Think it over."
Thats what Im wondering about FM
I just hate that they search out the controversy on purpose instead of focusing on teh athletes
surprised, kje? :)
it is just relative i guess - i can't wrap my mind around that, but i don't have the same perspective - and i don't want to - too much drama blah
Just think of all the mutitude of things the money could have been spent on instead
i just think that if youre THAT worried about it, then just choose an adult. and she can even be pretty. but for cryin out loud, let her actually sing. they had already chosen another little girl, but decided against her because at age 10, she was just too old...
i'd rather babble
I don't think that is true sam - the choreographer for the opening ceremony was a US citizen, just for starters... they were caught up in the production... as hollywood was when it was in LA
in my little happy babblebubble
Ya for babble *grin* and bigger grids.
Hospitals, Police services. Air ambulances.Education..need I go on?
I want a BIG grid tomorrow,I have the day without grandchildren
yes cait, but that can be true of every country that hosts the olympics... lots of building and money go into these
ill take a big grid on friday -- i took the day off :)
i didn't get to do saturdays and that was the biggest I had seen - i was sooo sad!
It probably will be cait as I am out all afternoon and when I don't have time to babble they are usually big grids
and china actually has a decent government health system and education system, though their methids are not what I would choose
lucky people with days off! i can't wait until i get to have that!
The biggest ever was over a year ago, wonder if we are going to get another monster this year?
I go along with the idea that the games should always be in Greece and the othercountries pay them
why sean? do you own your own business?
sean -- TAKING the day off -- i did a LOT of OT last week + even worked from home on sunday to get project done in time! i EARNED it! :)
Work for yourself sean and then you can babble and work 24/7
no monsters - stop calling them FM!!!
lol! Sean i'm hoping for you a day off too - did the new girl pass her licensing exam?
*claps had over mouth*
Dr God is reading the chog kj - he is gonna grant the wish of the babblers!
eek
*passes FM the duct tape*
no wishing... there is no wishing going on here!
Im ready with the first aid kit for FMs faint!!
not even close, kje! i manage a very small insurance office, but we're understaffed at the moment... so for the last month and a half i've been working 50 hour weeks... plenty of OT pay as well, but i'd rather have the time off at the point
Sean - did the new girl pass?
plus, i can't schedule vacation time until we know we have someone to cover the office
no comment sean - 50 hours, pshaw!
can you outsource any of the overload sean or is it bums on seats you need?
we dont get paid for OT. so my only option is to take that time off within the payperiod or else just graciously donate my extra time to the company...
LOL kje
we work too much in the US - we need to be more like france : )
no beeze, she hasn't yet
she's taken her test 4 times now, and still no luck
goodness is has gone very dark oustdie, must be more torrential rain on the way
all in favor of a 34 hour work week say aye
oh - yikers - there may be no hope for her!
man, i thought *third* time was supposed to be a charm...
i think maybe we should switch to 4 day wweek
do you still want her after that sean??? is that a bad sign?
Yup FM more on the way
aye**
im envious of the places that have switched to the 4-day work week. longers days kinda suck, but only 4 of them makes it not-so-bad!
Whats a '34 hour week' can't remember one of those
she's lucky they changed the laws on the test taking, though... when i did it you only had 3 tries before you had to retake the class... now you take the class once, and they give you 180 to pass no matter how many times you take the test
i'd be all for 4 day week... even if it was 50 hours in 4 days, at least i'd have few days off in a row
180 tries!?!?!? you gotta be kidding
i work 40 hours in 4 days anyway, so i'm all about it!
180 days**
what do you do beeze/
oh - still - that could be once/day
i'm a freight broker
although my degree is Social Work - lol
what does that mean?
yeah... you do have to schedule it though, but you can usually get one within a few days of when you call
it's like career day at school : )
last week, i ended up working 14.5 hours o thursday. yes, thats right, just 1/5 hours short of working 2 full days on one day. then another half hour extra on friday + another 5 hours on sunday.
so potentially you could try about 90 times if you had to before they would make you take the class over again
what do you do eva?
lol kje
another SW - cool beeze! we have quite a few of those on babble
Thats its too long to do in a day Eva you cant concentrate all that time
most of whom do not do it anymore, which I find very sad
i negotiate rates between suppliers of various materials and carriers (big trucks to haul the material) for a profit
just had projects with tight deadlines. i was a little delusional by the end...heh
do you like it, beeze?
it is sad that most SW don't continue - i started right out college working for CPS right there in Dallas
wow - cps - tough gig!
It is possible to do extended periods of long hours but in the end you run the risk of burnout.
burn out has to be high in SW
I must go and sort some food out,see you all tomorrow, take care...bye
it is very challenging - kind of like a game - matching trucks to loads, etc., so i enjoy it, but right now, it is difficult - due to fuel for diesel and etc
bye cait
Bye cait
bye cait! stay dry
burnout is crazy in SW especially at CPS - the caseloads were...bye cait....dramatically crushing and cases were closed with continued risk
i would imagine, beeze... at least prices are starting to move down a little bit
i couldn't handle that - i was doing at least a removal a day and placing children in separate foster homes due to lack of placements
the system is just messed up and there is not a good fix
I try to remember that when I have to call APS, beeze, and don't get so frustrated with what they can/can't do
the system is completely f***ed
sorry
i feared that i would have a death on my caseload
it is - APS is the same umbrella
that is true - it is the bottom line
it is sad that we live in a society where CPS is so needed
and APS
i know - and APS
hello
they are both needed badly and people don't realize how neglected seniors are
hey cacoon
wat u talkin bout
yet, our lovely pres again submitted that services should be cut, including Medicare, Medicaid, and all support services, including safety hospital support
i think a lot of people realize it, beeze, but don't care... i think people don't like to think about the elderly because they don't want to think about the end of their own life
we are wallowing in the pit of dispair cacoon - care to drag us put???
dispare
i think we need a rousing game of puck puck
I can't remember how to spell it!!!
despair
that looks right - LOLOL
that's right :P
well, that was humiliating
yes it is - it's weird how sometimes a word just doesn't look right
haah
puck puck!!! yes! what should we have on our course? any design ideas?
i mean haha
well there absolutely has to be an igloo hole
ok wat is goin on here???
another where you hit in the polar bear's mouth
and lots of animal ice carvings - maybe like a polar bear
lol Sean!
an igloo - yes! with a walrus guarding the entrance
oooo - ice animals - nice
bounce it off the ice skating penguins...
and you can see it go into his tummy and then drop out!
poor polar bear - we can't do that, they are becoming extinct
i like ice cream
we could have a water hazard.... the melting ice cap
it would be in tribute!
not a real polar bear!
hahaha, kje
penguins - cute!
whale migrations - sink it in the blow hole and it blows out on the others side of the course
so would you use ice skates or those speical ice walking shoes?
we could have a mt icemore
gotta be skates... more challenging that way
creative, kje! what an elaborate puck puck course this would be!
oooo - who should we put on it beeze?
i was thinking....
jack frost...
a yeti!
yes the famous yeti!
ur all sad
president nixon?
a zamboni
has our delirium scared away the other babblers : )
or is he too icy?
evening, folks. how is the grid today?
a zamboni! what could we do with it....
lol Sean
LOLOL sean
jacques cousteau
lol
you have to get the ball/puck past it...
grid is fine for awhile then starts to show its claws
Hi ylleria, not too bad for a small one
i think we scared cacoon away
dodge puck, I like it jess
i think so, beeze... we are an odd bunch
when we play, will there be sweepers like there are in curling?
there sean goes again...cruisin'
that is a good thing! lol
No! we are normal, it's the rest of the world that out of kilter :)
so what's the budget on this thing? 10... 20 million?
it is kinda like calories in babbleland, sean, money has no meaning
Thre's 8 mil left on the babble credit card
I agree FM
maybe i'm missing what you mean by cruisin? should i be insulted or complimented?
we can eat all the chocolate we want in the PB... skinny dip in the jacuzzi without getting ticketd for indecent exposure...
crusin' for a bruisin' -
should be neither
how many left FM?
brb
how many what left kje?
are you done??? did we miss your FW???
Ah, I was done this morning and my fireworkds went out in the rain :(
I've come in to socialise for a little while
so sad - we will shoot them again.... wooho FM!!!
neither indeed, kje... hadn't heard that expression since I was little... didn't catch on at first
Yay! thanks kje
can we redo mine now?
anyone have the new iPhone yet... is it really faster?
*setting up*
*lighting*
woohoo miss beeze!!!!
eek! yay!
thanks! yay!
Ohhh and Ahhhs :)
thanks FM, I did my best
lol - thanks for your support!
and what about you kje?
no iPhones??? no Mac fans????
i love Man, kje... don't have an iphone, though
Mac*
I am done FM - I am avoiding writing a report
not man... yeesh
don't have the iphone - just a cheapo razr
I love men too sean - LOLOL
thanks for the confession Sean
LOL
yay fireworks for you kje! i am avoiding work myself
hey, if there's one place to come out of the closet... haha
Congrats to you then for finishing and finding a good way of procrastinating :)
that is so true! LOL
I am the master of procrastination FM
this is the most productive form of procrastination i have found!
no closets here, sean, just a PB
master procrast...er!?!
haha, beeze
hey beeze, I am having dinner at 2900 tonight... did you ever go there?
There is a closet in the PB actually
i think i am more just avoiding than procrastinating
you are right FM, I forgot.... we hide chocolate there... and lots of liquor
yes! it is excellent food - the chef is reknowned!
you can watch him while he cooks!
i suppose so, kathryn... but if you put a bunch of liquor in there, people might be coming out of closets left and right
lol
thus, the skinny dipping... and occasional poo flinging by monkey
hahaha
you need to try the signature dish - whatever it is - i think it is a tenderloin - it is tdf
it is restaurant week, beeze... somewhere I have wanted to try so going tonight
how many words in this puzzle?
just don't skinny dip in the jacuzzi with the chocolate... or the poo
85
85 brehon
ty
you missed it last night, sean... choco and jacuzzi
have you ever been to JenniVine?
no poo thank god
it is a cozy little hub
joli
cool beeze
cool beeze
almost like skinny dipping in hot chocolate?
my chog is lagging
mmmmmmm sean : )
you should try JenniVine - it is on McKinney - great for a date or intimate little setting - very sweet little place
never heard of jennivine - where is that?
We used to have the jaccuzi filled with custard but it really did get rather messy
hmmm, wonder if it is still there, haven't seen it - I live in Oak Lawn beeze
not a fan of custard - too eggy
crosses custard off the list :)
pudding maybe?
it should be? that would be weird if not - i know they were doing construction right around it
can someone tell me what the 9 begins with?
ooo show jumping is on. co9/72 ylleria
they are gone beeze... http://www.bizjournals.com/dallas/stor ies/2002/02/11/newscolumn5.html
I like the chocolate better
warm chocolate
extends from the co7 ylleria
which builds off the co4/5
yes, i agree kathryn
which builds off the... just kidding
wouldn't want to drink it though...
hahaha
ooh - they opened a new place - called Rosebud - they closed due to the West Village construction
wht not???
why
it is probably good - The Grape is good
good afternoon y'all!
thanks kje, fmitch
*blows raspberry in general direction of kje* :))
ever been to angelina's in paris... their hot chocolate is amazing... and about the consistency of a chocolate sauce
AsGreen!!!!! yay!
too many naked people soaking in it... especially not if there is any of that poo flinging referenced earlier
i couldn't recommend the new place - the rosebud - b/c i haven't been there...i'm going to read up on it
lol - hiya friend!!
Hey AsG
no never been there
the grape is good - I agree
He AsG
I have 46 left - no list yet, but I'm sure I'll open
hey*
brb
Sean enough with the poo, my PB is a poo free zone I'll have you know!
I am done asg - yes D-O-N-E DONE!
hi fm, miss, yller, etc!
27 mins kje?
25 today asg
ooh, you are really improving!
and, finished. lol NOT - 44 now
it is truly amazing... and no doping, I am a dope-free babbler
hey Babble Buddies! How goes today?
hi pugster!
hey puggle!
you're like a gold medalist kje
hi pug
speaking of which, let me pop on that tv too....
kje - you're like the michael phelps of babble
Hi pug
kje medical question please dear?
a gold medalist with better a better vocabulary - ROFL
OK - do we need privavcy?
ok, I need to admit something.....
no dear
wait asg
oooh, I'll wait for the diagnosis, then I'll admit
the diagnosis may be contingent upon the admission
oooh, I got jo 7 all by myself!!
oh wait - i'm not the doctor - i forgot
I already know ass's diagnosis
just want to know if you could recommend a good info source about Parkinsons & related diseases/disorders?
opps - I meant as ; )
so now you are a proctologist kje?
there are several national groups that give info and support pug
the american parkinsons ds assoc
ignoring ass ref
pug I found a couple of good online sites when I googled Parkinsons
and the national parkinson's foundation
apparently my Dads Doc feels he has some Parkinsonian type thing going on & I don't know much about it..
Hi, all!
both have chapters all over the US and support groups as well as online info resources
same here pug
Jellen - it's been ages! Hi!!
ty vm dear I know there is a lot of wrong info on the net
who is your dad seeing? a FP, IM, geri, or neuro?
Hello Jellen
Hey Jellen!
neuro I believe
amazing tennis going on...!!!!
tried to convince him to see a geri but....
okay, back... work keeps interrupting me!
OK, generally they will watch them overtime... there are sevral PD-like diseases and symptoms develop somewhat differently, and respond differently to treatment
How are you Jellen?
my grandmother had PD also, but she died from non-related causes many years ago
I am well, thanks, FMitch. Got my hair done today, always makes me feel better.
can I bring this down a level and make my admission?
Good, a little pampering is always good for the soul
My grandmother also had PD.
Go for it AsG
i have a few clients with PD... i always hate it when i have to have them sign paper work...
ok, so ***i have something to admit***
his has become gradually (I mean decades!) become more befuddled & forgetful and at a loss for words (stammering etc.) SO sad as he was a BRILLIANT man...
sorry to hear that pug - but treatment can be good
I watched Access Hollywood last night, for the first time. It had some Olympic leadins that made me interested....
I shall learn what I can & PRAY!
I was EMBARRASSED to be an American after that half hour
AsGreen - go on...
typical PD disease does not present as demntia early on... it is a very late development in a few, but not all
at least you didn't say you are now addicted to Access Hollywood!
dementia
omg, "so, here's so and so, learning how to use chop sticks for her appearance in Beijing" , and, "how's the Chinese food over there?" OMG
if his main problem is cognitive, PD is unlikely, but maybe one of the related diseases
the tremors etc have been long present but quite mild the mental symptoms were always the more pronounced
(sorry Pug and KJE, I thought it was ok to start)....
at least you didn't watch Access Beijing - to learn that your country put the cute girl on to lip sy** out of embarassment for the real singer
then typical PD is probably not the diagnosis
thats what I gathered ,likely something related
anyway, I could NOT believe....and then some guy (Billy Bush? I'm not sure it was him) talked about how he's been sticking to pb&j....
anyway ,thank you love & I'll stop hogging the chog now!
the distinguishing cahracteristics between the different ones are the order ond degree of different sx, pug... maybe lewey body dementia? does he have any hallucinations?
goodmorning everyone
hey lynxxx
sorry, OK, done
Morning lynxxx
hi lynxxxxxxx
sorry, I'm stuttering
not that I've been made privy to but we live in different states...
Hi, lynxxx!
ASG - it is probably a good idea to stick to their normal diets until after their events.... a GI bug could wipe out their medal
kje - these were the anchormen...not the athletes!!!
and his wife is a self absorbed wing-nut so not the most reliable source of info
Hello everyone. Just popping head up to say, wasn't this a lovely mid-week grid :-)
Hi, Chrissie
could also google "differential diagnosis of parkinson's disease"... or "parkinson-like disorders" and get an explanation of the various types pug
hi Chrissie!
yes it was Chriss
lol Chrissie, it wasn't too bad but it is only Tuesday
methinks it's time for the list... 43 in, 42 left
Hi Jellen, nice hair
ty vm kje
I would be all over the food ASG - it is one of the fun parts of travel... and I have an iron stomach, thankfully
well, you haven't made much progress there asg
giving in early, Green? maybe i should follow your lead... i'm stuck at 24 left and am about ready to list it
totally agree kje - I loved the food when I went to Asia.... and rarely needed the immodium!! :)
is listing the babble equivalent to doping???
no, I've been chogging and watching tv
God I hope not!!!
oooh, still getting a few - not listing yet
OK, sorry to everyone I ignored as I went into clinic mode.... welcome all I missed
that would made me a Babble junkie!!!
i sure hope not, kathryn.... i would be a dope fiend
Hi lynx, how are things across the globe
Of course not. Babble is not a contest.
Hello, everyone.
Hi, Vicuna!
well, there are lots of reasons we are babble junkies - LOLOL
hi vi
I'm a babble junkie and proud
I prefer to think of myself as an incurable word geek!
hi Vic it's a contest when kje is in here! lol
Hello Vi :)
rainy Chrissie - which is great - was going to be another dry summer if we didn't build up some reserves

"Hi, my name is Sean, and I'm a babble junkie!"
Go on Sean, you can admit it, you are amongst friends...
HI SEAN!!

hi Vi - did you do that just for the icon theme!?
FM, my husband gave me instructions on getting my computer to talk to your IM, but I didn't understand them, so I'm playing it safe and waiting for him to rescue this damsel in computer distress tonight.

tx lynxxx
pulease asg!!! you gotta do better than that ; )
Vic - my twinnies are still at sleepaway - last week!
Bother, I might have known that the minutes I started chatting I would be called upon to bestow attention elsewhere. Back in a while, I hope. *waves ruefully*
lol - just saw ice and the mt icemore thing
oh thank goodness. I would not want anyone paying any homage to someone as annoying as me
ice could've been on there

I'll be sure to let you know when kje, so you can tell me you went listless until....
oh, speaking of bracelets - there is this great website for $1 this girl named kari maked pearl bracelets for infants
you can get as many as you want or use it as a fundraiser
www.karipearls.com
she sells other jewelry, but she makes it all herself, you just send her the sase and put $1 in there and you get a little pearl bracelet back - i've sent them to all my friends with children
i think i'll link her on my facebook...sorry for the randomness
no randomness apology needed - the entire chog is random
ok, it's official - I'm going to the list... da da daaaaa.... 36 left

thanks, KJE, got it
my friends are there - one is a prof at the university, his wife is an adjunct prof there too.
I had dinner at the brew pub....and what was that lovely place we had lunch? two women own it... right down town.... hmmmm
i used to be in the special education department there and my husband is in the geology department
I'm going to see if I can find any words while stuffing some Chik-Fil-A into my face. Mmmmm...
know the brew pub - can't guess which is owned by two women
oh, and we hiked to Copper ridge.... (if my memory serves me at all). He is the Creative Writing Dept. Chair.... apparently there have been all these politics going on w/the admin and he does the writing for the ethics committee too
Clue for the O please?
o4--of the ear
Gadget, it pertains to the ear
Love Coopers Rock - yes, the president just had to resign. They need a large ethicsx committee to oversee what is happening
Ahhh - TY Mom
o + facial twitch
yes, it sounds like it's been crazy there!! Politics and Universities... all that for such little pay - what a shame!!
green - where are you at?
you're welcome Gadget Hello Jellen
our country needs a major overhaul - don't get me started though....
Hello, Mom!
I live in NJ
they have also had a lawsuit going against the former football coach - lots of fees for the lawyers at least
****waiting for kje to chime in****
brb. Going walkabout for a bit...
used to liv e in northern NJ and my husband has his masters from rutgers
yes! I went to the fitness center and Julie told me all about that too - he's paying the school back I hear
funny wv - small world. I'm in Summit - grew up in Mountain Lakes (where Dorens lives)
bye Jellen - hope to see you soon! Sorry we are hogging the chogging!
Just got back from swimming at the Rec Center - one of the best benefits of the university. His new school is paying back most of it, but the school still needs to cover the lawyers fees.
think i will go do some reading up on parkinsons---Happy Babbling & BBL!
bye pug - hope you find what you need!
Have my masters from what is now Kean College and lived in Plainfield. Worked at the residential institution next to Rahway Prison - called Woodbridge State School (don't know if it is still there)
With that, I think I should go too - only a few days left to be productive, then my kiddos return!!
bye bye Jellen
bye asg
bye pug
i need to leave to get ready for a music lesson - see you all
sorry, asg - had to work for a minute there - LOL
I know Kean.... and am near Plainfield (as you know).....don't know Rahway area though
bye bye Pug
no prob kje - I was waiting for you to keep me in line - I did it myself
bye bye wvteach
wow, learning self control, it is a proud moment asg *sniff*
bye bye Asgreen
OH, I'll go to facebook and make my move too.... *once again, ignores kje* ***Poof***

15 left ... good time to go start supper. Bye bye Kje and all
Apparently this is the time of day when everyone leaves.
bye mom bon appetit
LOL wick - OK, I will hang with you a bit
Huzzah!
I was just about to write that you must have choked on your chicken sandwich since we hadn't heard from you
Ha! I wouldn't be surprised. I was soooo hungry this afternoon.
yuo must have scarfed it down
you*
I like chik-fil-a - that one pickle makes the whole sandwich : )
I'm not ashamed to say I did. And it was delicious.
our sons love their sandwiches
and they have reallly good coleslaw
It DOES, kje. I don't generally eat fast food, but sometimes CFA is just what I want.
now ... off I go. {{hugs}} to all
bye (((mom))) - sorry I was rowdy, will behave better next time
Bye mom!
agree wick - in B-more, every couple months I would drive to the suburb just for a CFA sandwich
none in the city
There's one that's close to the errand I was running on my lunch break. CFA sounded much better than the soup I had at the office!
you are making me hungry
Sorry! *passes last few waffle fries to kje*
I want chicken - LOL
and a pickle
Chicken is alllll gone.
Pickle, too.
: (
coleslaw?
Next time, kje, next time.
darn, will have to eat my fig
it is a beautiful fig though
okay, back for my last 10

hi all, icon themes updated and again the list has grown with several great ideas.
thanks for the support, kathryn :)
any of you any ideas or requests for the icon themes?
hi sprite
are you our new lickety??? icon themes... videos...
icon themes.... let me think....
definitely not. Lickety does the clues and the Babble Expert. We can all suggest vids for the fireworks, and I did a couple of them recently.
favorite weekend get away
have taken over the icon themes from Babbler because she needed a bit more time and space for herself.
ow, nice!
is she OK?
cutest celebrity butt - LOL
hahaha
yes, she is ok, but needed to make priorities.
could run through recipes... just choose sections of the cookbook
and babble got demoted - gasp!
I take the butt. We'll see if anyone thinks it is too much... I love butts, personally.
city where you were born
LOL sprite - I like you!
Babbler NEVER will get demoted, lol. She is the Utter Queen of Themes and will always be.
:)
please do not put my name on it....aggghhh
we will have a favo dish + recipe day, it is already in the list.
of course I will :)
favorite charity
need some clues....i just have 3 left

oooo buttons - there are lots of cool buttons
WOOHOO seano!!!

how about - what we wish was in the PB cabinet?
wtg seano!
no - egg no** at x-mas
ti - cross between a tiger and a lion
wi 6 - small toupee
i was so confused for a 2nd... i didn't see seano there, and I was like.... did i accidentally announce that i had finished when i still have 2 words left?
oh great. We will jump from butt to charity. I see definitely some connections and possibilities there.
decade we would most have liked to be a teenager in
sean doesn't know his name... he has cracked
yay....... two sean s' today!

am getting them all :D Putting them in right away, in a minute you can see them in the list
favorite cocktail!
wow..it really is a cross between a tiger and a lion...i thought that was for cluing purposes only. Has anyone every seen one of those ti 6/24's?
no 4/6 - egg no** - drinks at christmas time, often topped with nutmeg
I was wondering if SeanS had changed his icon to "favorite celebrity rear end" and Seano216's was his choice, lol
the only proper way!!!
hello??? anyone else contributing to sprite??? she asked for help people!
toes
you will be on from Oct 5 onward, kje! :) Lovely themes, looking forward to them already
haha, wickd
hey sean s, the similarity doesnt end there...our surnames match...pretty freaky huh!!

I was concerned for a moment, SeanS :-)
thanks for the clues

WOOHOO button!!!
Hooray Buttonman!
help with themes? how about kisses, dragonflies, origami
doorknobs (there are some cool ones of those too)
yay Buttonman

oooo origami - good one...

ah mo, another good one
china settings
like the ceramics, kje?
famous phycicists
wow... seano, i think you might be me from the future, and you live in a place much more appropriate to my name...
no, pretty china
I'm not sure how these icon themes work (pardon my newbie status). How do you find out what the theme is for the day?
efts
why, am I saying a lot of pottery - LOL
origami has been a theme very recently, but the others are going to go in :D
wickd: if you check my profile, you can see them. Either bookmark the link to my profile or put me in your friends list, and you will always be uptodate
i don't know about the icons... change my icon every day would be too labor intensive for me
oh wow - they really are twinkies!!!
changing*
excellente.
then just do it if you like a theme very much, Sean :)
speaking of twinkies... how about thing most likely to survive a nuclear blast
ok, going to put in your suggestions now. Thanks :D
all right... if i see a celebrity butt one, i'm in... and then i'll never want to change it again
oh, good one too!
Deal, Sean :D :D

I meant facebook, not babble

yes, it has progressed from typos to entirely wrong words...
thats not a good disease to have in babbleland
please do, then we can put it on the right date
ok, hold the other thoughts, I am going to put it all in
next stage is full incorrect sentences. then: complete gibberish
after that, you have to leave babble and go into politics, Sean
hahaha!
ok, away from chat for a bit, doing my paste and drop and such
SeanS for president!?!
OK, I asked her sprite, will let you know when I hear something
sprite, are you on facebook?
no, ice... i believe she meant one who has the poor typing disease (PTD)
whats the 9 letter word
i have a question about facebook? i am new on there and i thought if someone wants to be your friend they have to send you a request right?
LOL - you guys are funny - no politics for me... will type slower
someone i went to school with just became my friend
c
will someone tell me please
i didn't get a request or notification? - no big deal, but did i change something to make it that way?
hmmm - don't know beeze
ah yes, kathryn... i believe that is the only way to cure PTD once you've contracted it...
please
co 9 - gerund ending of the co7
i dunno... I had to walk across the street and fix a computer and still not completely back yet
doglover ... co9/72.
what does that mean i am new 2 this?
we should develop a pill sean... what shall we call it?
oh sorry dog
the clues are the 1st 2 letters of the word, how many letters are in the word, then how many points it is worth
work calling... will have a pill name when i come back...
if you haven't done so, check out help above the chat box... and lickety's below the grid
and welcome dog!!!
not paying higher R&D just cause you gotta work, sean, we have to keep the pill affordable
good luck doglover and welcome to the madhouse.
lickety's babble clues lists all the day's words, an the clues
madness and addicting... it is soooooo true
it's like demonic or something - LOL
lol.
my presssious
creepy ice
ok, you great creative minds, check the list... you are all in :D
ok its not quite that bad
thanks sprite
and thanks for all your hard work - this takes time
Hmmm...clue for the co7? Please...
yeah, but it is fun. Can you imagine all these days, what people can do with themes like this? It is bound to be interesting and fun and informative :)
co7 - felon + no4/4 (memo)
c + not off + musical tone
I'm overjoyed to see commas, colons, and dashes on November 17!
me too, wickd! It is going to be fascinating.
oh, I see I left one day open. Dec 10. Who wants to be there :D
Okay, now I need some help. ji6/39?
ji6 bells
annoying short musical line, wickd, like they use for tv ads
Oh my goodness. Thanks.
what icepyro says. Much better clue
where are they sprite?
ok, one more theme, for Dec 10. Let's here it :) kje, see my profile!
wickd... I must say that your theme suggestions are rather .... interesting
I can be an odd girl sometimes. :) I also suggest "most ridiculous hair-dos"
did we scrae doglover off?
is that like the beehive hairdos?
what about efts sprite?
I think I will combine those two
odd is different. different is good =D
efts??? Okayyyyy, could be fun
Oh! I didn't see behives. I was thinking more like mullets.
is a good combination, wickd
Doglover ... please come back.
lol I think both count
What's an eft?
Hi again, all...
an eft is a newt.
hi jellen
I think we scared doglover off
hi Jellen.
hi Jellen *hug* How are things? Holding up?
No kidding, mo? I had no idea! I was thinking "electronic fund transfer" and I couldn't really figure out how to show that in an icon.
it was the demon talk - LOL
you do realize that I will likely have an icon screenshot of monty python if you do that.... "she turned me into a newt! ... I got better"
Things are okay, sprite. We're in a holding pattern until Tim gets in to see an oncologist...
But ice, you don't look like a newt...
we are a bit " scary" :-)
Ooops! Gotta run...it's snack time. I'll be back!
lol ;)
bye Jellen, a hug for you and Tim, and I am thinking of you both.
wickd, depends on the angle you watch icepyro from. And the side.
wickd ... you are "wicked"
ok, list updated again. You guys were great. I love the themes, will think of some real good icons for them :) Thanks a million!
okay, i had a new policy there... took a few minutes... so pills for PTD... there would probably be different ones for different specific problems... like "anti-dyslexotic pills" or something.... general pill could be "Type-O's" although that sounds more like a cereal...
Finger Fixing Fruits
HA, Sean I just about choked on my Diet Coke.
Sometimes, Mo, sometimes.
sounds like a blood type : )
haha, wickd :)
yay, and an email too... will put those in before going to bed
type-os... not bad... but you know in todays medicine it would be more like typtotrin
Misspellanax
must push off now, bye everyone ... thanks for the chat.
any help on sy7/48?
hahahaha!! - wickd
sounds like a laxative wick - LOL
bye mo!
wickd your definately better at medicinal naming than I
I think I'll stick with the misspellings, lol
oi
I am always miss the gerund endings today
chloe -- it's the gerund of sy/4
sy7 sy4 + gerund ending
Thanks Icepyro and Wick
=D
the gerund ends?
ing
wi7/52?
a tiny flying appendage
sorry, it was a joke, I guess a lame one. Icepyro said he was always miss the gerund endings... I suggested gerund ends.
thanks kje
okay, i keep getting hit with (not literally) customers, and i've got someone one the way in, so i must be off
coming by to say hi. I finished this grid...so now I am bored...Watching the olympics some more.
bye SeanS, thanks for helping :)
Hi Sprite!!!
I'd duck, Sean. Have a good evening. :)
bye sean
hiya red!
hi red
red - when do you run your marathon? what is the date?
bye sean
bye sprite, wickd (thanks), ice and kathryn!
The Marathon is sometime in November, I have the Half over Labor day, its just a training run, but we are doing a race to make it fun...
So I go to NM over Labour day ewekend.
thanks for asking!
you don't know which date???? how can that be?
which date is Labour Day?
It's sort of far away I think its November 11.
I do knwo it, but it isnt etched in my head.
Labour day is Sept 1.
just goodled it - it is November 17
Sint Maarten in the Netherlands :)
ah, ok
marathon is nov 17th sprite
Ok, so November 17.
:)
What is Sint Maarten?
LOL red - if I was tarining for that kinda run, I would def know the endpoint!
:) I just know its at the end of the little paper with the training plan. Plus, I am a bit focused on the Half which is in 2 weeks...so my focus is a little off.
okay, dear list, I need FOUR wonderful little words...May I ask, and dare hope to receive, your gracious assistance????? ;-}
Sint Maarten is a Dutch celebration for the kids. In honor of St. Martinus they go from door to door for treats. A bit like your Hallowe'en, I think.
Ohhh. Fun!
it is on Nov 11, Sint Maarten.
I guess my race is on the 17th.
done, kje :)
I swear I just live day to day. its a bit sad.
jeanne, shoot away :)
Congrats Sprite!!!
very Zen, red. Good for you.
lol red, not done with babble, I finished this morning. But done with the icon theme list!
any help on the 2 sy5/16?
Oooh.
day to day is the best way to live... any further in the future and you are just giving yourself more stress
i think a good theme would be your favorite phantom....
sort of like "since" with a lisp...
sy + sleepy movement of head sy + #10 is the te***
good one, red
Thx Sprite
lol jeanne
the list in is my profile, so if you put me in friends or just bookmark the link, you can always get to the list of themes.
Flock of Seagulls was a sy5 band in the 80's...
I'm not so sure I am impressed by the commentators for MSNBC.
they are debating is it the most medals or the most gold medals? I thought it was about representing your country in an honorable way....
red, your theme is in too, Jan 18!
I'm sticking with Lopex lomong until the end of the Olympics, or his race.
I liekd the commentators on the gymnastics last nite... they were like "well he would have to do this good and he didnt"
cool sprite!
My favorite phantom is Rodeo. I have it alot.
trying to get a year ahead sprite?
I missed that ice...
am going to call it a day. Thanks for all the creative inspirations! It was fun, and we made it into the New Year already. Wtg all :D *hugs room* Sleep well and/or enjoy your day.
bye sprite sleep well =D
it was on early morning... like 1am pacific time... the gymnasts were generally pretty bad
duh just noticed that there is a gerund in the corner!
and the commentators were not very encouraging
i had a F***ing awful day at work and I 'm on my 2nd glass of wine now
poor monkey
hello there fellow babblers
*pulls the jar on his desk and puts it in babble land* see the sign? "Psychiatric help $0.05"
phantom word: hedonist
hi jacq
Oh monkey, i am sorry that you had a bad day.
TY red... i can't even begin to explain how F***ked up it was
there is a woman at my work who wants to make my life miserable and she is succeeding
I finally had a day off. It was faboo, all except the shopping etc.
monkey - to let her succeed is the worst thing you can do
good 4 u, red :)
yea yea ya, i've heard all that before...
act wacky and say ridiculous out of character things - i have a customer that does that to me and i have had to resort to silliness
dont get mad, get even... er I mean... nm
it's a complicated situation...
hi missbeeze
she has no clue what to do - the best thing you can do is act totally out of character
hey icy!
lol
both BF and I got flat tires on our vehicles while we were on vacation, and I suspect her
she is a wacko stalker
make rhymes with your words and stuff
whoa!
then act like even more of a wacko!
er... thats bad
be bop around and make rhymes like nothing in life matters - and then say gotta flat tire and i know who did it i know who did it and it was you - boo!
or something totally weirdo!
LoL
she will be always wondering!
lol - being insane works monkey!
i already let it be known at work that i found the flat tires suspicious... when i was outside waiting for the repair guy, she drove by. Tell me that isn't suspicious
she did it - if your gut tells you she did it, she did. you just need to let it be known right to her that you know - without directly accusing her
no offense miss beeze, but i don't want to act "insane"
you don't want her to feel that she got away with something
I dunno if silliness works on someone already that messed in the head ... I had one person stalking my ex and I... had to just pretend it didnt bother us and quietly stay more out of sight and she eventually got bored because we werent being hurt by it, it seemed
i know, i'm being serious now though
oh i did, miss beeze... i told a few people at work that we were having the police brought in (just to scare her)
fireworks for me :o)
you can't allow her to feel she got away with it. She probably isn't frightened by the police
yes, i'm leaning toward that method, icepyro
yay soozy
woohoo soozy!
and hello
do you think she would be - serious stalkers usually are not
sorry to hear the drama monkey - I hate drama !
yay soozy!
but for now, it's really upsetting... she spreads horrible rumors at work about me & my BF
does she have a motive monkey? is she just jealous?
I have a sticker on my bass guitar - "Drama -- Get some in your life!" right next to "stop global whining" lol
I wouldn't waste a lot of energy unless you think she is truly dangerous... otherwise what ice said is likely right - ignore her and she'll get bored and move on
icepyro, i play electric bass :)
TY everyone, i apreciate the concern & suggestions
bully's always want to find the victim that will squirm the most
monkey that sucks...
yeah monkey! I was given a bass as a gift and doodle around on it from time to time
you need to go to your supervisor and make sure it's noted with your personnell people that this is happening
you are too cool monkey!!! really, you play bass?
she seems fairly elevated to have gone as far as to flatten both of your tires - i would actually put the police on alert - it depends on her motives, but if she has true stalker tendencies, she could be dangerous
not very good because I always find thigns to distract me tho
oh just saw your comment missbeeze... yes she has a motive. She is jealous. She met my BF online about 1 /2 years before i met him, they had a few dates and he said he wasn't interested.
sorry, meant to say, *about one and 1/2 years*
hell hath no furry?
it should be documented for your personal security and in case things were to escalate - i would just have the police make a report - they won't take it serious, but it could make a difference if it continues
yes i used to play bass in a band, called "JT and the Pussycats"
and were you JT or a pussy cat?
i still have my bass, but haven't touched it in a while
she was a pussy cat of course!
fury
i was a pussycat of course!
i thought you meant to type furry kje! for the pun of it!
yes, miss beeze i agree with you... i appreicate your helpful adivce
yes, that's it - I did it on purpose!!! another cure for the PTD
monkey - seriously you should get it documented - if she has stalker tendencies, it could escalate, and everything should be documented - if you have to get a restraining order, you need everything you can get
ice, what kind of music do you play?
I was originally taking up bass to make a band with a couple friends.... but the singer/guitarist proved to have more issues than a magazine
I on the other hand do not have to worry about such, monkey, as I am BF-less at the moment... see, every cloud has a silver lining - LOL
ok - i'm done now - sorry!
yes missbeeze... i documented (in my dayplanner) that we both had the flat tires, that i found a drill bit on the ground beisde my car, that i saw her drive by... also i told the repair guy
even the single cloud kje!
more issues than a magazine - never heard that one - like it!
good one, ice
actually the single cloud is really great once you find contentment there - it is a great place to be!
ice, i like to play blues, surf rock, rock n roll, pop... fav songs by BB King, Jimi Hendrix, Allman Brothers, Dick Dale
I hate the single cloud, but Im so used to it now that i ahve a hard time being on any other cloud
no worries beeze, I do not feel cloudy... or overcast... or whatever...
i got very content with the singlehood before marriage came along - i was perfectly content with being single forever
I LOVE the bass line to the Allman Brothers song, Melissa
I played alternative/rock mostly
simple songs lol
i am single, but living with BF... it's kind of a limbo-kind of situation
monkey - you should pick it up and play again! sounds like you really loved it
limbo cloud
yes kajee, i have plans to play again. First things first. I need to take my bass for a "re=conditioning"
i never did the limbo cloud...
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
BY the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
i think it would help you take out your bad day frustration if it were reconditioned now monkey!
aaahh - an overhaul - had to do that with my clarinet and decideed it was cheaper to buy a new one
hey minver!
hi minver
hi minver! well, i'm off to cook breakfast for dinner now... ham, poached eggs and fried taters, oh yes and cinnamon toast
i played clarinet once upon a time....
I have a clarinet, but lost the lung power to play it
bon appetit monkey
ah breakfast for dinner - an ingenious plan monkey!
Goodbye lil*monkey! I will see you tomorrow in the log
BBL *ppoof*
I think Im gonna do breakfast for dinner too... hashbrowns eggs and sausage
goes great with wine! better day tomorrow - k!
oooh. I have been craving pancakes all day.
however. I ate grape nuts and tofu and a burger.
Hmmm.
i'm posting photos on facebook from my Colorado trip and wishing i were there
lol red - nice combo!
waht an interesting combo there red
oh the grape nuts were breakfast, the tofu at lunch, and the burger for dinner...
Lots of veg in there too and fruit.
I need milk yet.
funny... grew up on east coast... moved to west coast.. and still never been to colorao
oh - that makes sense...
it is awesome - i would love to live there
*do
i can't think of anything negative about it (although i know there are negatives anywhere you go)
the weather is amazing, the landscape, the wildlife, it is so raw there, and people really seem to appreciate it
mountains wear on a vehicle like nobodys business.. esp transmission
***fireworks***
thanks icy! con +1
yay wickd... I thought you had left but I guess you were just buried in the grid
wtg wick
yay wickd!
I was stealthly playing while working, lol
Yaaay WIcked!!!!
Congratulations wickdsmaht on fireworks!Good for U
woohoo wick!!!
I live in the 'foothills' (mountains to me) of california so I know how bad it can be
I am unstealthly playing while at work
yes, i went to Santa Barbara last August - another beautiful place
I had a whole day off from work today and I am revellingn in it.
kje - that is a city that could go on your list!
er by doinng grocery shopping and laundry.
santa barbara is so cal??? no thank you : )
lol I was lazy.. so now Im somewhat out of the lax uniform
no breakfast for me tonight - am dining at a nice restaurant for restaurant week...
they should split the state... so cal and no cal ... such different worlds
restaurant week?
was just perusing the menu Beeze - looks good - I am getting excited (I am a foddie, so yes, food excites me... love trying new places)
Hi again everyone..... KJE, I thought you were going to get some work done. :)
it is beautiful there - very hippish and trendy a little overkill - hollywoodish
oh you won't be disappointed!
kind of like no dal?
hey Mom!
restaurant week, started in NYC, restaurants offer prix fix menus and proceeds go to local foodbanks
hi mom
Hi Miss Beeze ane Ice
wow kje sounds cool
hate hollywoodish... I am more SF than LA - by a long shot... feel right at home in SF
(((mom)))
Hello Mom!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle
now lots of cities do it ice - are you near SF - they do it
Hi Min, I am just fine, thanks. How are you?
kje me too...
{{{KJE}}
yes, it is a little overkill there, but beautiful. I'll have to visit SF - that is probably more my style
they don't do it in SC - lol
kje sf is 3 hour drive if it is not near rush hour
I am well thanks. Hoping to finish this grid soon Mom.
san diego ws nice - good seafood - but would get monotous with sun all year round
have you finished it all but for one word, Min?
that is why i think Colorado is where i should be
like I said... diff worlds.. Ill stick with sf and sac and these mountains
it is more artsy and organic
colorado is cool - especially up around boulder - kinda like austin
No,I have 15 words left. I did some this morning, but then went out and did errands. I came back not too long ago.This is my first time entering chat log today
exactly beeze
I have 15 left as well. Some really wacky words today
gotta run - didn't realize the time, need to shower and get dressed - bye all
i really would like to move there....***dreaming of Colorado***
bye bye KJE
go KJE - have fun and enjoy - will wait for report tomorrow!
actually my only complaint about the mountains is technology or lack thereof
get the beef tenderloin!
bye kje
Goodbye kje! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
yes, they are lacking in that area
that can be a good thing - i didn't even take my cell phone when i went for a week and was sooo glad
I agree Mom,wacky words like my sy words I just got
wifi is useless
missbeeze... im in the business so I make use of technology
there are 5 of them and they all work the same way except for one - the sy words
those sy words were awful
and the te 5/12 word I found, wacky but monkeyable
aha! yes you do web design right?
or somethign relating to it icy?
the ti 6/24 was the worst
my job is IT Technician
Ive played around with web design but Im not creative so...
yes that is right - that is how you made my sophie appear for my icon! our IT guy is offsite and lame-o!
i have since had no problem with my icons
well you made a nice drawing icy
this is not my drawing lol
oh - well someone did then lol
wi 6/36 is kinda funny. I wonder if Pi**** from Winnie Pooh ever wor a wi**** Mom. I am down to ten words.
yay Minver - go go go!
I havent scanned in any of my drawings... and they tend to be dark and jaded
8 here Min. My mom wore one for a long time
yay! Boss is gone now I can clue and chat.
i dunno who did this drawing.. I love yin yangs and dragons so thought it was cool
i think it would be okay to put them in...
yay wickd... what do you do?
that is how i knew it - from my mom...Mom!
Hi again Wickd
Like, for my job, Ice? I'm a technical editor.
oh those were the days. I doubt the teenagers know what one is
she told me about them and going to the beauty school when she was growing up with her sisters
I can remember her putting up her hair and setting it on top of her head and then coming home and putting it on the styrofoam head
i know! that is so right - i appreciate my mom so much - she didn't realize she was teaching me these things when she just told me stories!
and taking it to the beauty shop to be washed and set
technical like 'I make sure its grammatically correct' ??
i don't remember her wearing it, because she was younger when she wore it, but she tells stories of them and that they had the styrofoam head and everything
I can tell how much you appreciate your mom by the way you talk about her
she is the best mom in the world, but i'm sure many people feel that way about their mothers!
I know I do
I edit technical information for a large corporation. I make sure stuff is grammatically correct, and I spend a lot of time making sure information is consistent across documents.
I sent tribute to mothers as an icon day to sprite and she put it on the list
is Sprite doing the icons now? I rarely keep up with them
yes mom sprite took over icon themes.. need a link to her profile?
It's a computer company -- a lot of very detailed information about RAM and GBs and PCI slots. Sometimes my brain comes out my ears.
so we can put things that make us think of our mothers -eek! cannot wait until January! yes she is doing the themes - i sent a bunch for and they all fall in January
yes, Ice. Please and thank you
wickd .. sounds somewhere between awesomely interesting (I am a comp geek after all) and totally tedious (I hate grammar and overkill documentation)
What do you do ice?
http://www.playbabble.com/view_profile /2889
hey & hugggggggggssssssssss again my friends
okay, going to watch olympics now - lots to catch up on and spoilers are catching up to me!

Hello nancethefan! How are you? Welcome to the grid
Im an IT Technician at a casino... mostly helpdesk type things but also actual work when it comes up.. maintaing the network/computers/phones/tvs/etc
niterz missbeeze
I am down to eight now too Mom, but taking a break.
Minver I looove your icon!
hurry back Min.
Ok I guess I should actually try to do the grid
Hmmm. Looks like you put what I edit into action, Ice. :)
yeah basically ;)
only downside is they put poker in after I joined IT and so now I cant play my fav game :( .. probably for the best tho considering my habits
2 left
go mom go
thanks Ice, working on it
36 left lol
Yeah, there's no gambling here at my office lol.
I will help you if you need or want
go Mom!!!!
thanks jacq
1
well working at a casino... I am not big on slots and cant afford table games really... but poker is my weekness
I love the slot machines, or did until they stopped spitting out the gold coins
haven't been back since.
yeah I liked slots before we went TITO .. particularly quarters
sorry - i was on brb without saying brb - i've been doing that all day long.
I've never played poker at a casino. Nor have I played anything, really, except for a roll of nickels here and there at the slots while I wait for concerts or whatever to start.
that is what I played
well, anyway, here i am - lol
hello nance
Indiana has riverboat gambling, no casino's
and we are just across the river from there
hey ice & all i missed entering
hi nance! and everyone else too!
Hi k21
California has its fair share of Indian casinos.
gone
well unfortunately I dunno enough ppl to get a poker ni4 going
i mean....yikes....
hi k21
i heard that there is a site that loans you 10 cents (lol) & you can win up to $20. they said they actually send you a check. i don't know what site it is though
hey eyes
hiya Nance...how's things?
I wish someone would send me a check in the mail...
Hi k21eyes! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
18 to go
you got one from W, right?
go go go Jacq
things are going well eyes - i hope they are with you also
Hiya Min!
wickd Ill send you a check if you send me one for the same amount lol
go jacq go
things are ok...I'm on my 7th day of not smoking.....
lol ice
Ha! And we'll both be out the $.42 for postage.
well done k21
yay k21 wtg
good job k21!
oh yeah I forgot about postage =\
Good for you k21eyes! I wish that my husband would quit! His mom has been in&out of hospital because of years of smoking, but he does not get it.I get so mad
still cheaper than the 3 hr drive to deliver myself tho lol
well done, girlfriend. i'm proud of you. i must stop but haven't yet. are you taking a pill, the patch, the gum or just old fashioned willpower?
good job K21!!! You are saving so much money!
I call what he smokes cancer sticks not cigarrettes.
My mom quit after 30 years, cold turkey, so I know that anyone can do it!
This is probably true, ice, lol
My husband just started again after 6 years of not smoking. ARGH!
Nance...I'm using the pill. Most excellent! I couldn't do it without
My M-I-L quit cold turkey after probably over 4o yrs.
wow
I tried cold turkey...I was a loon
my doctor has spoken to me about the pill. i hope to get my mind set to quit soon & i believe i will try the pill. i'm really hooked.
What kind of pill is it.Is it covered by your insurance
Husband begged me to keep smoking LOL
i tried cold turkey & i was evil
It's Chantix and no...not covered by ins
I smoked for years, then I saw my Brother in law just before he died of lung cancer. 2 months after his funeral, I woke up one Monday morning, and said "Dammit! I'm not going to buy any more" and that did it for me.
But hte cost is the same as buying cigs each month
That was seventeen years ago!
from what I understand the pill helps with cravings while also somehow making cigs taste worse than they smell
Hubby is evil even smoking,imagine what he would be if he quit! Still I would rather that he quit smoking. I would rather he be evil than dead.
Definatleyh helps with the withdrawl symtoms. I still crave but get over it. I still like the smell but not sure about the taste cuz I haven't tried...afraid to
eyes - my doctor recommended the pill Chantix starter pack followed by Chantix 1 Mg tablet 2 times a day for 12 weeks.
does that sound about right?
the hardest part (from watching others, not personal exp) is finding a way to fill in the habits... after meal relaxation... taking a break in general.. etc
That's what I'm doing Nance..same thing. Only I have learned that one should not go off the pills cdold turkey either. Weaning off the last two weeks is what I was told to do
Hi ExWren, nice to see you again
ok sweetie - thank you - i have to get myself psyched up
lol Min. My dad quit cold turkey in 1976
Ice...every suggestion I have read about "trigger " situations and how to avoid them doesn't work for me. All there ideas ARE my triggers.. LOL
Hello ExWren!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
My dad chewed toothpicks after he quit. I was afraid that he would ironically choke on a toothpick.
Mom...and he stayed quit?
Min I am down to 1, hurry and catch up
yes, K21 he sure did
and he smoked 5 packs a day when he quit
Wow
k21 my roomate had a similar problem... he seriously is a lot more angsty since he quit... but he has been quit nearly a year now
I'm not enjoying this grid, even though it is a small one that I normally prefer.
my dad ate hard candy after he quit...every night he entertained himself by trying to throw wrappers into my iced tea
My dad used to smoke too, but don't remember when he quit. It was sometime when I was little girl though
it is awful, ExWren
Thats funny Jess!
lol Jess and hello
my dad quit cold turkey in 1978 (due to a heart attack) - never touched one again & he's almost 84 now.
that was back in 1981, I was 10
I started the grid this morning, but I didn't get far. It is midnight now!
dad did not want the three of us to smoke so he struck a bargain. If any of us kids did not smoke before the age of 21 we got $100 on our 21st birthday
So I guess thinking about them constantly DOES eventually go away?????
one of his co-workers lost a lung, and when he came out of surgery the first thing he did was tell my dad to quit
oh dear ExWren, that is late
Hey mom..good idea. We just chose tho kill our kids. So dar...so good.
eyes? did your craving go away immediately? my doctor told me he's had patients that the meds worked that fast.
it does K21. My sweetie quit 24 years ago, but he said all it would take was one cigarette and he would be back at it
*far
back when I was growing up you never heard of second hand smoke
I am 50 now and never have had a cigarette
you never heard of a lot of things back then did we?
Nance...I still have urges all day long. I just started my 4th week on the pill. BUT, I find if I do some deep breathing, that really helps rid the urge...most if the time
no, not like today. You can hear things that are way better left unsaid
i'm so glad for you mom
thanks Nance. I am happy to say I was the only one of the three that got the $100
i'm 55 & have been smoking like a chimney forever
not happy that they didn
t but happy that I did
Nance, i've been smoking for 35 years
11 words
go go Jacq
if I would quit yacking I might get that last word in
lol
struggling
ghit
40 years here eyes - ugh
go jacq go
Hi jessmom! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
no gh words, k21
Bite the bullet Nance! Come on and stop with me
thanks mom!
I'm good min, how are you today?
you're welcome K21
ciggie break
i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack... just had a declicous brekkie for dinner
Your killing me jac
{{Lil*Monkey}} hi
you're making me hungry for breakfast monkey...
mmm, sausage wheel....
hi mom ! we had ham, poached eggs, fried taters and cinnamon toast
we have brekkie for dinner about once a week
yummm. I have a bacon and tomato sandwich
wb monkey good to see you seem to be in a better mood
hey. did i tell y'all that zane was diagnosed with spinal stenosis & his doctor made him stay out of work & off his feet starting 6/20 - two weeks later his boss called him into the office (which he wasn't supposed to get off his feet). He went and met with his boss. His boss fired him.
wb monkey
yes have had 3 glasses on wine now!
oh nance! that sucks!
better slack off Monkey ....
so we will be working on disability paperwork for quite some time now.
you are kidding Nance that is terrible
Holy cow Nance
nance, isn't that illegal?
Lil -- wine should make Babble easier. :)
Oi, Nance, that is Not Okay.
i hope his boss gets hit bny a bus!
Yeah that doesn't sound right Nance
it's terrible - he needs medical care but his boss told zane that to have insurance, we had to pay $650 a month.
lol monkey - you're sweet
I thought if you were out on medical that the employer can't fire you
i was hoping "schnit" was a word, it isn't :(
no sc words at all Monkey
i hope Mr. Nance's boss gets hemorrhoids!
i hope Mr. Nance's boss gets erectile dysfunction!
dam, i can't find 2 of the words from the top row S
hopefully his doctor will supply zane with his meds (the ones that cost $700 for 3 of them per month, at no cost to us.
he probably already has erectile dysfunction and thats probably why hes so mean
Monkey, they all have the same first three letters
*sending GOOD karma to Mr. nance*
lol monkey - ME TOO
lil there is 1sn 4 and the rest ar sy
3 have the same 4th letter
thanks Ice for correcting me. I must be getting tipsy from Monkey's three glasses of wine
you know like second hand smoke ... second hand liquor
i have 3 sy words
he even had the nerve to tell him that since the doc said he needed to stay out starting 6/20, that his boss decided two weeks later to make 6/20 his separation date.
thank you my friends for caring.
lol mom I wish that worked as good as second hand smoke
hoping Mr. Nance's boss finds out for real what it feels like to be SHAFTED
Nance, I don't think legally he can do that
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO that sure doesn't sound kosher Nance..
:)
MOM! I'm pouring another glass here...
we are trying our best to keep calm & put one step in front of the other every day
**inhaling deeply**
are there more than 3 sy words?
well i found it to be legal but i think it is terribly selfish of a company owner
5 sy
and I am still at 1 word to go
i checked mom & that can be done in this state.
that is just plain rotten
i have sy4,7 sy5,18 and sy5, 16
very low rent that Mr boss
so since he can't work, we can't file for unemployment. we must go for disability.
what kind of work is he in, Nance?
Well, then I hope the state gets run over by a bus and or gets ED.
sy7, sy5/16
sy 7/48
sy 7/48 too lil
oh i just found sy5,16 (another one)
i don't mean to sound like i'm whining - i just needed someone to share this with besides zane - thank y'all for listening.
that Mr. Boss is a fart knocker!!!!!!
everyone send Mr. Boss BAD karms!!!
i mean Karma!
{{hugs}} Nance .... group hug (that is if Monkey can stand) :)
lol wickd - all y'all are so sweet
Lil..you should send Mr boss a little package
i'm ready to organize a mr. Boss rumble
we need the little dolls to stick pins in - LOL
Voo Doo Voo Doo
yes that's a great idea k21! A large Package of POO!
awwwwwwww - i love you guys
YES!
voo doo voo doo voodoo (plus POO)
oh Nutty, our resident Poo expert ... where are you???????
poo doo
LMAO
lol
lol
lol
i'm having my colonoscopy Friday... I'll have the residual poo sent to Mr. Boss.
I'll just need his name & address please, Nance
you should have it gift-wrapped to make it extra-special.
ok - didn't mean to get y'all fired up - i just really needed to vent that - i've been holding most of it in for a month now.
if the boss gets ED, his do4/7, which is only one in4/6 long anyway, won't ti6/24 anymore...
be sure to post HIS FULL NAME AND ADDRESS everywhere you can think of... esp on those gay website
put it in a dark colored bottle so he can't see what is in it
lol Jess
good idea mom... you are so smart!
LOL jessmom!
Oh schnit!
and then when he unscrews the lid ...... whammo
too funny Jess ...and helpful
thx jess... another 2 words in on this bad grid
i can't figger that ti6
rymes with the ji6
also, he had the nerve to call zane & tell him that his (zane's boxx) brother is a doctor & wanted to let zane know that it can be very serious. Also, he told zane to keep in touch with him (his boss) and let him know how everything goes. That's some nerve huh?
or ...... get one of those snakes in a can and put the poo in it and when the snake comes up .........
which ti6?
the one in jess's funny story
ti6/24
monkey - you are a hoot - lol
about the boss' do4 being only ONE in4 long
new meaning to flinging the poo
first or second?
i am digging that idea, mom!
That's unreal Nance
Back for my last 20 words. Hello all.
either one jac! i need both!
ti is a tiger + a lion
hey bzz
hi bzzz
Bzzn you beetter scroll back...
ok second one is like ji6
Lil...do you have the ji/6?
no i don't!
think Santa and his bells
what the bells do at Christmas time
first one is plural of ti5/12 and is almost like ti4/4 but slip letter inbettween last two lettrs
wb bzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Why, Monkey?
OK got the ji and ti words that mean to feel naught all over
i pity the fool who messes with our gang - lol
lol
lol
yes, Monkey his bells not the other
Bzzn, Nance's husband got fired by Mr. Boss, who is an AS*hole
we are ploting how to get him back!
isn't there an agency that deals with employment issues?
i know that here, unless you have been employed for over 12 months you have very few rights
lol - and i'm just amazed at the clever ideas that are floating around - lol
Can he collect unemployment?
Isn't it illegal to fire someone on medical leave?
let's get Kalfus & Nackman on this case right away
yeppers - but they said his boss did nothing wrong
jess did you get those or do you need more?
they are TV lawyers
Sounds like they need a little poo doo too
north carolina has some silly loophole around crap like this
that's ridiculous!
It's illegal but yet he did nothing wrong? Don't get that.
I'm all do4/5, just making a joke...
If he did nothing wrong then he can collect
hey who can clue me the sy7?
I'm gonna talk to the hubby about this one...He's a boss type guy...only a nice one
nance, i think that he can collect unemployment
Jess ... if you are finished would you mind to tell me which N the do 6/36 is used
i'll tell y'all one thing - i'm happy to have y'all on my side and feel special having such fantastic people i hope i can call friends.
sy7 gerund ending for sy4
he might have a clue anyway
sy7 add gerund to sy4
ok thank you eyes
it's like sy4/7 bit with the ending we like
ci6, please?
TY for clue, Bzzn
do6 Do* **h*son played Sonny Crockett on Miami Vice
new york ***y + spanish cheer
ohh Him ......... loved him on Nash Bridges
what the hell! what is that do6 word? that is nuts
I have his record...
I could have sworn I tried that. Thank you Jess. and that is Fireworks
TY, Mom.
should I have admitted that?
TY for clues, people
congrats Mom!
you do. I heard he did one
jess, we can overlook that flaw
a do/6 is where they threw criminals in medieval times.
woo hooo MOM
Mom you're the best!
Mom you're the best!
thank you, thank you
WOOHOO! MOM!
no, that do6 sounds like a portapotty
second only to you Monkey
MOM! come over for wome wine!
I know what I was trying to type was Don Joe .... duh
Mom? do you have your firewirks yet?
I just did, Jacq. How about you?
yep, she's getting drunk
Wome wine?
wooohoooo wtg!!!!
oh i meant "some" wine
nah have 7 to go
I would monkey, but you wive a wong way away
hahahahahhahaha
Sounds like you've already had enough, Monkey.
thank you Jacq
it's DELICIUOUS!
thank you for a clue jess
yw nance
jacq, do you want some help?
thanks Mom, but i will try harder and when my brain waves the white flag i'll yell, if that's ok
Nance, I thought .... was your husband going to be able to go back to work at some point?
sure thing
a* not I
we aren't sure - it may just get worse - his spinal column is narrowing around his spinal cord & he also has bone spurs
the do 6/36 is a potty for mob bosses
ok 1.5 hrs to go... then I think im gonna get in the pool
All right crew, I'm outta here. Enjoy figuring out ways to injure the Jerk Boss. ;-)
bye bye Wickd
bye wickd see ya =D
not to much longer Ice
lol wickd - thanks for you ideas - sleep well & night
I was thinking if he had a doctor's note with a return date, then I don't think he could be fired
good point mom!
isn't it nice having friends on the net?
it is only if they don't return by the date stated which could always be replaced with another doctors note,
me either - the doctor's note he had stated that he would return to work after 30 days
that they can terminate if they desire
I don't think the boss is playing it straight. Even if he did terminate, I don't think you can back date a termination
go mom! get Mr. Boss in trouble!
the company he worked for did they have an employee's hand book?
i've worked long enough before my back problems to know it's always about the bottom line, but, to fire him immediately causing him to lose his insurance is just plain nasty.
yes! handbook! read it!
i will look into that aspect of it mom - thank you
yes
ring ring .... Hello Mr. Boss please. Mr. Boss my name is Karen Flintrock, Esq. I am representing Mr. Nance.
nance!
Call the folks in Raleigh too...this just sounds stinky
I do not believe you have just cause to have fired my client. On what grounds may I ask?
call... i can't remember what they are called.. the ppeple who protect you when your rights are being violated
aclu
the A C L U
And in the mean time...Lil can send a poop-a-gram
yes! the American Civil Liberties Union
lol @ poop-a-gram
they would know all the ins and outs of the applicable laws
they are a small company (15 employees or less) which removes many of the restrictions when it comes to firing. at least he could have paid him severance. insteadl mr boss spent $2 million decorating his new beach home
ooooo even better...drive by pooping at mr boss house!
ans we'll just get Mr. nance reinstated, and get Mr. Boss fired
lol k21
meanwhile, I have started putting together the poo o gram
k21 and Jacq, that would be a popular item for Valentine's Day, I am sure
lol @ poop-a-gram - that would be sweet
now if the delivery person calls out poop-o-gram, I think he may get suspicious, don't you think.
where does Mr. Boss live?
oh i have an ex-hubby who could do with a thousand poop-a-grams
i'll swing by after my colonoscopy Friday
If monkey goes with a schnit-o-gram, he'll have no clue!
ever seen what happens to paper plates on the lawn when the sprinklers come on?
lol eyes - y'all are making me laugh so hard i'm almost forgetting i'm poor - LOLOLOLOL
no! what happens ice?
no Ice
ok monkey - lol
lolololololol
good idea ice
brb
I have an ex-hubby like that too jacq
brb
any help with no6/21 and no4/6 please?
can I help anyone with a clue or two
back
no6 think po**** license
no + et 4/5
no4 egg no* plural
i have a no4/6 that is plural of nickname for your head
plural the Christmas drink Egg no**
no4/6 short for you head
rhymes with Lincoln L***
if Mr. Boss drives a fancy convertible as so many BIGWIGS do,hire some poor struggling local farmer to "accidentally" dump a truck load of manure in it!
oh mom, that's an excellent clue
thank you jess
ty folks
lolPug
yw nance
hahahahahahaha PUG! OR, have a certain little monkey deposit her poo instead
maybe Mr. Lincoln could spare some of those L*** for the poo gram
Nance, is it a business that can get letters saying I won't purchse frm them anymore cuz I heard they were scummy?
LMAO mom!
preferably a pig farmer! That's the stinkiest po there is!!
It's time for me to git along, little do4/9!
oh good idea, k21
Good night all, have fun!
good night Jess, see you tomorrow
bye jess
can y'all be any more fun? thanks. i may be in here in the middle of the night sometimes worrying - i hope at least one of you are around
yes it is, I wonder what type of co, it is
night jess - sleep well
I just did that to the food store near where I live, got the manger in bg time trouble : )
ok back sorry I am at work after all. anyways paper plates will break down and then stick the grass... think about chewing gum in hair... its difficult to fix short of just cutting and starting over or letting the paper biodegrade
what kind of co. is it, Nance?
Nance! I just had a fabulous idea! Call the local reporter at your paper and see if they are interested in the story... newspapers love drawing attention to scummy businesses
esp human interest ones
YES good one lil
ohh, great idea Ice
most papers have a "consumer" reporter
or a tv station .. we have a "Troubleshooter" at one station
or even local tv news station
they make all types of metal thingies (lol) pullies & i don't know what else. so i guess we can't boycott them.
yes! good idea Mom and Pug
Letters to the editor
what is the name of the co.?
BOYCOTT METAL THINGIES AND PULLIES!
lol monkey
No more pullies welcome in my home!
we can't boycott them but enough lketters to head office saying that we dislike the way they treat their staff and will recommend that their company isn't used
I am never buyging another metal pullie in my life LOL
yes , what is that company' s name?
thats right Jac....Nance just give us the word
I think that is an excellent idea, jacq. Think of all the letters from all over the world they would get if each of us write one.
also does he have any "inside" dirt on the company? OSHA violations etc? If so use the leverage!!!
maybe y'all can help me compose a letter over the next few days & maybe, just maybe, we can sock-it-to-him
i will write a letter! or, one hundred letters!
i don't know pug
But wouldn't it be best to let them know the word is spreading about them?
2 to go
god another late night
I will write one as well.
go go go Jacq
send the letters direct to head office
zane said that for the last two years, his boss has been getting more & more paranoid
need a name, though
Perhpas OSHA would e interested in some potentail violations.....
24 left for me... while we are talking about scummy perople, how about John Edwards
go jacq go
hmm, this just might push him over the edge.
ty ladies
42 left for me
Always thought John was scum
oh John Edwards. ...... I think he is still lying
yqw jacq
He is...its what he does best
how stupid is he for saying he had an affair, but is NOT the father of the baby... what idiot is going to believe that?
Nance, if you don't want to put the company name here, would you email it to me?
how about that edwards?
me too Nance!
come one nance, put the company name HERE
he said it was a short affair in 2006 but the baby was born in 2008
Lil...did your hear him when he said that wasn't him holding that baby...LOL
If he IS the father why does the mom refuse the testing????
he needs to loose the peni since he did it while his wife was battling cancer
hahahahaha, oh right, that was my twin
He said well it could have been me, looks like me, but I dont remember a baby
need clue for second co 5, the 5 16 plz.

monkey is whining
praying, too, of course
hey aussie
how about some fudgy cake with that wine? lol
Its not my sugar that has been the problem.... Well, we found what was causing the problems... but its easier to read my email first, and then you will understand.
Hey Nance !

Nance, you want me to write nasty letters to your boss ?

hey tyger, how ya doin?
Oh i am a dope i meant ti 5. 12 (they look so much alike)
congrats, Lindy!
hey lindrick
ti5/12: a teeny tiny bit
**beating Mr.Nance's boss over the head with plenty big baseball bat**
how are you, lindy? I already answered :)
Yeah me too tiger! lol
That ti 5/12 word has to do with coloring aknitter.
how is life after hys?
my babble is running very slowly!
Hello Aussieme! How are you? I missed your entrance.
actually, min, it could be a small amount of most anything added to a mixture
went back to work yesterday tyger so I am feeling rather exhausted and I am still very swollen )0:
it's a term that used to be used by people who compounded medicines
anyone have a clue for the c in the second row - all I have is ci 4/5
got it ty for your efforts
swollen??
yw for my part, knit
lol - i don't care how slow business is. zane had an above average appraisal & no problems - it's scary that someone has that much control over someone else.
yes tyger I look about 6 months pregnant )0:
I was thinking of the ti 5/10 word tygerbryght.Sorry
again? still?
ci 6? ci + sounds like the fee you paay to use a road
JBV ci6 - change the final vowel to the bullfighter cheer
it's okay, min :)
the dr says it is normal!
you brought back a memory, tyger - when I was a kid I worked part-time in a local pharmacy and the pharmacist used to make compounds and mixtures -
no one is doing that anymore I bet
good memory, JBV?
oh, ick, lindy. so what now?
thanks for the ci 6 aknitter
the smaller pharmacies do it, we have a few specialty rx's for our patients that they will make up
oh, yes, tyger, one of my best jobs - worked there for about 5 years
there's a compounding pharm next to a hospital near me
Just have to be patient, tyger, when it is all healed fully the swelling will go down, average time is 8 months
then I'm glad I made you think of it, JBV
interesting, thanks, aknitter -
does anyone know of a business (preferably not selling). i can data entry & very capable in all facets of an office environment. i worked 24 years until alfter my 2nd back surgery. i've looked and looked for something to give us some extra income.
wow, lindy. that's a loooooong time!
hi all!

OMG.... F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S !!!!
YAY aussie!!!

hi natts :)
oh, thanks for that, jilli... I didn't realize and would have been lost the next time I decided to change my icon :)
hiya pam, hiya jilli
WOW Mrs Natts!!! What wonderful news in your profile!
thanks, jilli! we've been common-law for a few years now... this just makes it "religious" but no official papers as of yet (we'll have to chase that down, methinks)
but it meant a great deal to hubby. his mother did not sanction his first marriage and he was not given a proper Hindu ceremony then.
but she loves me :D
Natts, now please post exactly what your icon is about -- a wedding feast? What?
Oh natts, you're so lucky!
that was just a really pretty meal we had in the hotel restaurant in Kuala Lumpur.
please put that in your profile, natts, so everyone knows! What was the menu?
Indeed I am. I feel very blessed to be so accepted as part of his family. His only sibling - a sister, only 1 year younger than he is - was out of touch for decades. Now she calls us twice a week.
Bliss, natts! Seems you've mended some fences
I will, jilli... but now I must attend to some bookkeeping (a.k.a. bill paying)
rofl @ todays video.... Almost tying my incontipants on with laughter...

Hello y'all!
Can anyone here recommend any other word games or puzzles that you enjoy? I sometimes find myself at loose ends after finishing a small grid.
bookworm on yahoo games
hey sam
Hi nance. And I'd forgotten Bookworm--how could I have done that? Thanks Shirlock!
literati at yahoo - it's like scrabble
co7
please
Thanks for all the clues. That's fireworks for me.
hi everyone
I can't do multi player games at Yahoo. I keep timing out, because of my lousy internet connection. I need solitaire or individual games like Bookworm.
*sneaking off to bed* Good luck to those still looking and congrats to those who finish (torgone hurry up!)
co 7 Add an anagram of the appendage on the end of your foot to the co4 directly above it
Samantha - are you on facebook?
I created a Facebook account yesterday, as a matter of fact!
(And for the co9, give it the gerund ending, tijani)
pathwords, wordtwist, text twist, scramble... then there are the Mind Jo4 games

getting chilled is not fun, grab a quilt and cuddle
nurse came yesterday to flush my portacath, and she stabbed me in the boob with a needle and missed the friggin port!! OUCH!!! I told her to come back another day after practicing on someone else!
Wow! I go change my icon while there is a slow chat and look what happens! Hello to all who just entered!

am going to put some Angel cream around and on the site so if she stabs me again, I don't feel it so much. Hate it when them miss.
hi min
