I'm not a fan of the chocolate/chilli mixture. Did have fun trying it out on my stepdaughter, though. *grins*
Its just that little kick thats nice

'You're a wicked stepmother!' said she when the taste hit her. 'Just doing my job,' I told her.
I like chocolate, caramel and smoked sea salt truffles

POUNCE hi sprite
hi lady :) How are you doing?
Good i just finished making Chilli Choc truffles coated in cinnamon and cocoa (dutch)
sounds delish!
How are you
http://tinyurl.com/5h3bc6 This is the recipe
just back from my son's school, it is his very first day at highschool. We couldn't park near the school, and then had to walk around the entire building, and then up some stairs. They are building an annex and it is all a mess. So I am dead beat, in a lot of pain and can look forward to another 2 days of sh*t... grrrrr.
hello again -- back with the new icon
OH wow.
Oh, poor sprite! How did your meeting with monkey go?
Hi herin, jill.
Sprite i thought schools had to be handy accessed? Hi Jill and Hydra
wb jilli, hi hydra! MonkeyG and I and Walter and the dog had a marvellous time! My kids took care of Walter and we could chat all we liked.
Hydra say hi to your Daughter to for me (been slack with facebook(
That's great! Yes, I will, herin. Spoke to her last nite.
lady, so did I. Next time I have to go there I am going to phone first, and ask them what they plan to do to get me in. This single trip ruined 3 days for me, and that is not good.
Hope you are all well?
She's off to NZ in October for a month, herin
hi sprite -- maybe you can give your back a rest and babble all day?
OH Sprite hun HUGS. :(
Good icon, jilli, and a nice story :)
just talked with hubby... he will do the shopping and the cooking today, again, the darling. And I am going to sleep this afternoon. With a sleeping pill, if need be.
Nice icon and story Jil
thanks, sprite -- and I get a kick out of yours ;)
What a nice hubby. Make sure you take him up on it and get a good rest, sprite.
Sprite sends you warm wheatbags and cuddles
thanks all :) You always make me feel better, no matter what. And my hubby is the best ever. He is a heart on legs.
roflol jilli, good one :D
I am waiting for the truffles to set so i can box them up.
nice recipe, lady, thanks. Am copying it.
sprite, give your hubby a hug from me for being so good to you
I use chocolate melts and wait till it goes glossy then poor it into a bowl then fridge ti
Well I must be off. Trekking 30 miles to Peckham in S London to have lunch with friend. Will take about 2 hours on public transport. See you all later.
I will, jilli :)
wow hydra, have fun! *hug*
bye hydra -- have a lovely lunch!
ft
Enjoy hydra
and ft to you too, Karys :D
ft?
forward together. Foreign trader. Free tea.
sorry everyone.... and I only just turned the thing on !.... I don't think it likes this wet summer we are having (neither do I !)
nor me. I had to wait about 20 minutes for hubby to get the car, and it rained. Am cold to the bones.
no Sprite none of those... it was supposed to be fa4/7 !!
(sorry for nagging)
lol, ok Karys :)
we had a heat wave last week, and now it's a cold wave
who's nagging who ?
we have forgotten what a dry wave is, never mind about a heat wave
I was nagging about my morning.
ah, ideal for catching a cold, jilli :(
HI Karys
isn't that part of why we are all here sprite ?
Sprite do you have a bath or sit in hot shower that you could use?
sometimes, yes, but I don't want to overstretch anyone's intake capability :)
hello herin... I saw what you did last week, it was very kind, a good deed passed on I think ?
not really, lady, we have a plastic stool for in the shower, but that is not comfortable. I am going to babble a bit, then go to bed, cover myself up and get warm and rested.
sounds like a good plan there sprite
Yes indeed Karys since Jade sponsored me. I had some spare cash.
yes, I like it very much you did that, lady. *hug*
I remember how thrilled you were at the time herin !
I seem to remember that when those horrendous hot permanent wave machines were no longer necessary, the new rage was the "cold wave"
SPrite that doesn't sound comfy. Seems to be you would do well with putting on the electric blanket and laying there
jilli, I was thinking the same thing. Something my mother said when I was very young.
I was just waiting to get some spare cash which i finally had and considering everything that has been good has happened lately
I am pleased for you herin !
so close to ch5leader.
I am too. But now i am getting back into ever thing like the gym and eating properly
herin, that was really nice -- as Karys said, a good deed passed along
good going, lady. It is great that fa4 is smiling upon you.
Well i believe in paying it forward even if it doesn't cost anything. THe other week i bought fries for a little girl who had upended hers at Mac Donalds
if all would be like that, the world would be a much nicer place, lady. *hug*
ohhh... that's so nice herin !
you really are a good kid, herin :)
Yes the little girl scattered her tray and sent her fries flying she was so upset. I just had to
that, she will remember too herin, and perhaps pass something on
I need to go do dinner in a sec
enjoy, lady
Back in a minute
oh jilli, did you see all tne new themes? People are so creative!
PSSST Sprite: The 24th of Oct is my birthday
want to have it in the themes? Will put it right in. Any special requests for that day?
oh yes, sprite, I had a look at all the wonderful theme ideas! It's so great that you've taken over and are participating (((hugs)))
Nup.
seems to rub off, lol, jilli. I actually enjoy the creativity and sharing of the babblers when it comes to themes.
ok, am going to put in your birthday then.
BTW, Lickety said when he puts out the next version of Expert he will put you in Resources the way Babbler has been. Right now he's worried about this google pages business.
ah, got hi6 :)
right...back in a bit... must go and 'do' something
for some obscure reason he is not talking to me, jilli, or at least not answering me at all. I think he did not even seriously check out Kiwi's ideas. Seems like things have to collapse before things can change?
Ok. Maybe Sprite a Pay it Forward ocon?
wb Karys, and wtg jilli :) Lady, your birthday is in.
hm, how would that work out, lady? Like a charity?
ah, that hi is very much like that co ;)
ty sprite ;)
Um Theme is Pay it Forward. Things that you could do to make your community a better place
ah, brilliant, lady. That should work. Will put it in right away.
Ok had to think about it then
done (with that theme, not the grid)
oh, look at the time! Must go to bed! House painter will probably arrive in about 7 hours with noisy sander outside my bedroom window!
argh, jilli. Sleep well and effectively, lol, *hugs*
Night Jill
Sprite I had to think about the wording then
yes, but you found a good one, lady. This is going to work just fine.
well, NBT and over halfway, hate to leave you all, but...*poof*
and really poof this time, you need your beauty sleep ;)
I am loving the Aussie way of celebrating in the Games. One of the Gold medallists dipped his Gold Medal in the chocolate fountain.
lol lady
I think it was the sailing team nissted as pewts
and fireworks
yah sprite
cute vid. I am going to sleep, lady, big hug :)
Night hun. Im going to go too and cook dinner and stuff
HUGS
G'd morning Babblers!
Morning LoriPPPP!!!!!!!!!!
FM!!!!!!! :p
Good to see you back in babble land *grin* Haz is back from hols too!
Oooh, the happy wanderer returns. 'Bout time too!
It's a bit of a Winnie the Ph5 grid this morning. She's lurking somewhere or ironing somthing ... or perhaps with GC?
*po5 *smack self with hallibut*
We had planned to be at Mom and Dad's for 4 days, but it turned in to a 9 day stay, did some odd jobs for them, that kind of thing.
hello FM & Lori...I agree. I keep sneaking peeks at the grid hoping some 7s will miraculously appear
lolol I'm sure the windows got dirty while she was away. Perhaps a smal neighborhood child is dangling out a window, cleaning them?
G'd morning Lynx! At first g;anc, this grid is a meanie.
Much appreciated I'm sure Lori Hi lynxxx, not doing too badly on 7's, have been working the monkey hard this morning.
I have 1 among my 5 words....... ack
hi everyone
cail
If it's any consolation, I had a very slow start then speeded up and now sit resting against the wall waiting for inspiration.
G'd morning Andree
hi Andree!
It's a terrible thing to admit, but like a true addict, I missed Babble while we were gone.
Woke up every mornign wondering how big the grid was, lol
LOL Hi Andree
i have been moving house and other than the odd look I have not babbled for weeks
Very busy time for you then Andree.
all settled Andree? both you and Lori were missed!
yes but pretty well settled in now and unpacked, work really slowed it all down
Good luck to you and yours in the new digs Andree!
my daughter and I with her 2 kids have rented a great big house together
morning putzes, just saying hi 'fore i head off to work
Morning nutty
hi nut
Good morning all! Lori, there's a way of doing a babble grid for yourself. Take a sentence from a book, make into a grid, and off you go. But I'm not addicted.
wow, nutter gets up this early? G'd mornin'!
Welcome back Haz!
Hi Haz! your postcard hasn't come yet!
lol Haz, neither am I. G'd morning, I hope you enjoyed 'yer trip.
morning Nutter
I did indeed, Lori - lynxx, just for you, I'll put up a pic...
Was your house in need of cleaning when you got home? :/
Well, my daughter was in residence and she had done a good job, but yes, I cleaned it yesterday!
lolol I knew it!
lol Haz you still have your 'rowing' icon up from yesterday.
Why isn't ploit a word? I want ploit!
And even more worrying, I had all the clothes washed and ironed the day we came back. I've turned into my mother.
Refresh, FMitch! Refresh!
There's something about your own version of clean, I always have the same problem if I am away for a few days or more
Oh Haz, that's serious. You're hooped.
Thank you lynxxx, I'm not the only one then.
Ahhhhh thats better
ROFL - a rowing icon !
Nice pic.
The coastline was gorgeous.
So, whereabouts were you, Lori?
Nothing so glamorous Haz. A 4 day stay at Mom and Dad's turned in to 9, and involved painting and ***gasp*** housework. :-)
Have you had therapy to recover?
Maybe the therapy has begun already.
Uni helped, she was a great source of strenght to me, affirming that it was for a good cause....
Good girl - she's made of stern stuff.
I think it scarred her as well.
I balanced it all out by coming home and doing nothing. :p
Very sensible.
So, it really was a working holiday? You need a proper rest after one of those.
lol it was a nice mix of work and play. The kids had a blast spending time swimming and kayaking at my sister's cottage.
Uni will probably seek sanctuary in the bookshop
They didn't flood the cottage so they could swim?
I'm sure she will.
I wouldn't put it past them Haz.....
I'm a bit floods on the brain these days. We had a month's rain fall in 12 hours here and the damage has been considerable, though we are fine in this house, thankfully.
Unis is spending quality time with her Dad's side of the family. Guilt trips are a powerful thing.
Jac was worried about you Haz as she had heard there was flooding in Ballymena
That's not good Haz. Glad all is well with you, but I'm sure others are not as lucky.
There has been bad flooding in parts. L took a picture of the local playing fields the other evening - it was a lake!
My sister in law who was with us on holiday has had some flooding in her house - not because of the rain but thanks to a cracked valve in the cold water storage tank. It's a bit of a mess.
Oh heck, not good to come home to.
Guaranteed that if something like that happens, it will be while you're gone. Murphy's Law
I'll say!
Not really. She was alerted by a drip of water on her head when she went into the sitting room. Then the squelch underfoot....
It's going to force her to completely strip out the room but it was needing a makeover anyway.
I must go, trying to finish a kids jumper tonite...see you all later
Water damage is nasty, and unfortunately, expensive. :(
See you later, lynxxx.
Take care Lynx, have a good one!
*grabs paint pots, colur charts and swatches* Night lynxxx
I know, Lori, and she's quite sentimental about things so will find it hard to change things and throw out damaged stuff.
I hear you, FMitch!
21 invisible words left *sets large pot of coffe on the table*
Nice job FM, go go go! Thanks for the coffee.
Is Ata Hari still on the road, or is she back?
She is still in the US for a couple more weeks
Heading down to Atlanta soon
I thought so, but couldn't remember for sure.
brb
I've heard she's still in negotiation with the immigration authorities about being allowed back into the UK.
We may have to mount a campaign.
What's crawled up their collective shorts?
It's her activities. Can't say any more - Official Secrets Act and the Law of England and all that.
I've heard Jordan has friends in high places.
Ahh, very covert. I always thought she looked shifty.
Im not sure that would be a problem to her having to stay in the US he he Haz postman has just been
Shifty doesn't begin to describe it.
how many words today?
Oh good, FMitch - that's a LOT more efficient than it would have been coming from <-------.
147 Alex
I dasn't elaborate, since any affiliation with her could be misconstrued by "the man"
G'd morning Alex
It must have been printed in Auss!
Very wise, Lori. Very wise.
good morning Lori
Possibly, Fmitch, or else the printer was too busy being laid back to notice.
or you were visiting Rabiznaz not Zanzibar
Hello all :)
Hello Liz!
Morning Liz
Hiya :)
Fmitch! I sent Fran a message from you and she said she'll dop you a line sometime and she misses you too :)
Oh thanks Liz :)
G'd morning Liz.
Well this grid is full of new words (for me) and very few babbletsto fill in the gaps.
Maybe that explains why words have stopped jumping out at me.
yup they are entrenched in the depths although I do have 1 x 8
***This grid is poopy***
Now, now, positivity please. This grid is challenging of intellectual capacity and cranial dimensions.
I can forsee lots of 'chairs, hooks and crosses' in the cluing later.
yah, that's why it's poopy!
***I don't like to think***
But with a positive attitude and the judicious use of all resources, including you know what, you too can triumph!
I don't use ....what's that resource again Haz?
You don't use the best resource known to man or babbler?
NO wonder you get stuck.
If you used www.morewords.com, you too could have time to do the grid AND polish your chimney pots.
Nope. I am a martyr at heart, I like suffering.
heh heh heh like I'd use the spare time to clean things. ROFLMAO
Sorry got sidetracked there for a moment - morning Lori
A girl can dream.
Does anyone know what todays icon theme is?
Unless I become an amnesia victim Haz, it'll never happen.
Don't talk to me about icon themes.
why???
Sorry Liz, no idea
Wouldn't that be amazing, Lori? A smack on the head and you might become a Stepford Wife.
Go to ranking Liz and look at sprite bio, she is hosting the themes now.
will do...
There's been a lot of talk about it the past few days, Liz. I can't seem to muster the interest others do.
Thats 'cos you are still on that wonderful beach Haz and who would worry about anything in paradise?
There's a downside to paradise, though. People who live there are dirt poor.
where is everyone at? I'm in North Wales.
hmm I looked...
Near Heathrow Alex
Uxbridge?
Uxbridge?
Hi Alex I'm in the Channel Islands
Ahh, theme discussions came to a head?
No west of there near Windsor
I didn't know Babbler was giving up doing it but Sprite seems very um organised
oh right, I know the area quite well, stayed there for almost a year
well Babbler had been doing it for several years so I think she wanted a break
The icon theme thing is dear to many people's heart, but I personally see it as a voluntary thing rather than as an obligation.
I thought it was voluntary - is it not anymore?
Do I remember you are on a farm Alex or was that someone else? Of course it's voluntary!
thats a relief - some of the upcoming themes would have me stumped
lol, yes, good memory
Yes, it is voluntary, absolutely, but there is pressure for it to be seen as an obligation. I won't change my icon every day - sometimes it's nice to have the same icon to make babblers recognisable.
yes, I if I find one I like then I leave it for ages - I like to recognise other people too
I remember a conversation you had with Atalante as she knew the area round where you are.
When does Ata get home from her trip FM?
I don't want a clue but is the re8 a sensible word? Couple of weeks Liz
out of interest how did everyone come across Babble?
Uni (my daughter) found it, and told me, I was instantly hooked.
It ws in the Daily Mail 3 years ago Alex
re8 is a slight reworking of a word meaning to put someone down a league.
No idea FM, I'm ignoring re's.....
I saw it in the Daily Telegraph some time ago
I hate re words!
thats how I found it too, in the daily mail
I agree Liz, they should be voluntary.
That's how I came upon it as well, Alex. I've managed to avoid becoming addicted, though.
Luckily there arent too many of them today
yea right Haz!
First sign of an addict Haz - DENIAL!
I'm not addicted, think I've only ever completed it once or twice, just try to get at
I have what I like to think of as a mild attachment.
atleast 50 or 100
***laughing uproariously @ Haz***
Was it something I said?
**giggling quietly at Haz**
*rolls eyes and tuts* at Haz
yah, Haz quits Babble each and every day.....
yes - its a bit like me and chocolate!
I went for 2 weeks and didn't take a laptop or anything. A pen, a bit of paper and a home-made grid worked just fine.
LOL not addicted at all, poor Haz, there is no hope for her.
Clearly in control of her demons....
Absolutely.
I didn't do the home-made grid thing every day.
That proves I'm not addicted.
Doesn't it?
Hello everyone. I am pleased to see lots of silliness in the chat today.
morning ladies:)
scrabbs! and the bunnies!:)
You didn't take your medication on holiday did you? tsk! Morning Scrabbler and cross
stillness is over;)
Hi Crosshair--we arrived at the same time!
Good morning Scrabbler and cross. Silliness? Where?
G'd morning Scrabbler, cross
how old is everyone here?
Now now, not nice to ask a lady her age!
well, I've seen 29 a few times Alex.
im just a tad older than dirt myself;)
I'm as old as Madonna but not quite the same shape.
Chronologically I am 48, but I act like a 10 year old.
Haha, look at our replies!
But if we get the Butt- Be-Gone up and running, she'd better watch out.
*** diverse ***
whats it like being so old? do you really feel physically older?
*passes Haz some valium for her next day of withdrawal*
room full of women,they will all say 29 and holding alex
ROFL!
if i could afford it i would get theese feet cut off and get plastic feet
My 9 year old son told my two year old daughter that Mum is 39 and my darling daughter said in a horrifed voice "Mummy's not THAT old"
So old? Most days I can struggle out of bed without the zimmer, but by evening time I have to resort to it. And wrinkle cream by the bucket load, of course.
Haha, Alex. "Old" is relative!! With age comes wisdom...and daily aches.
see? they even train thier kids to lie about it:)
Alex obviously has yet to learn the word ta4/5 :)
I like my new walker. It has a basket to hold my meds.....
He has no future in the Diplomatic Corps. that's for sure.
I never got the wisdom bit as I grew older Scrabbs!
lol needed that one fm:)
Is it one of the wheelie ones, Lori?
Lori, do you need me to write any new prescriptions for you?
scrabbs,do they have tylenol sevens? lol
I'm polite but I think its better to be straight to the point rather than ta4/5 -ful
Hello all got the late shift tonight/morning diving in will be out to chat in a bit
Yes please Scrabbler. You know what I like, er, need.... Of course Haz. Next, I'd like a motorized chair.
G'd morning meliae
I have a spare trowel for spreading on the wrinkle cream if anyone wants to borrow it lol
So how ol'd are you Alex?
Hi mel
21
good for you FM!!!! LOL
Those motorized chairs are great, but you have to be careful with the batteries. Put one in that's too strong and WHAM! You're out the door before you know it.
oxycontins for all over 40 wheee!
time is going so fast, i dont want to get old
Good morning meliae!
Alex, be grateful for every day 'yer feet hit the floor. Being old is a privelege many don't see.
good morning everyone.
Getting older gives you freedom you dont have when you are younger Alex, you worry less about other peoples opinions and just take care of what really matters
there are 3 kinds of time alex slow time,regular time and fast time
Good morning, Eva.
G'd morning Eva. Any of the narcotics are fine with me cross.
hi Eva
read the short story "my pretty pony"
and then babble time where you loose hours and hours and suddenly go - how come it has got to 11.30 and I have work to do ,sigh.
So true, Alex, so enjoy each day. The real advantage of getting older is that you gain life experience and wisdom. My 40's have been my best decade yet.
if you were all young again, would there be anything you would have done differently?
Hi meliae and Eva
Le double sigh. I have shopping to do. I procrastinated yesterday but can't put it off today.
FMitch-come here and it will only be 6:30 am and you'll have plenty of time
if i were young again...id marry my wife sooner...:))
You know what, I lost my very best friend to a sudden unforeseen aneurism when he was 45 - I live each day like theres no tomorrow now - lifes for living not stressing over getting old
I like your thinking Eva :)
aw cross thats lovely
I would have taken better care of my teeth.
Never look back Alex. It only gets better, and you're more sure of who you are as time passes. no do-overs.
Don't go FM, ignore it, and it will go away!
i would of never started smoking,only to have had to quit 25 years later
I hate to say it but I have to go :(
*hugs* FM
bye FM...don't work too hard
Alex, be less afraid of what other think. Thoughts are just thoughts and are not usually based on reality or facts. Don't sweat the small stuff. Experience life--travel, meet people, do new things...
***pouty face*** Have a good one FM
all that wasted money....
Bye FM
So do I! Back later. Bye!
Thanks for the photo by the way FM - I forgot to say
Hugs to all and back in a while.
underlines scrabbs dont sweat the small stuff
Well, at least you quit, Crosshair. That is not an easy task.
See ya' soon Haz, FM
thanks for the education
Don't sweat the small stuff, but do wear deodorant.
Bye Hazel
quit 2002:))
Scrabbler knows.
Bye!
sweating the small stuff is like trying to empty the ocean with a tea spoon
Hifolks! Just on over lunch. How is everyone?
Haz
Alex--Richard Carlson, a psychologist wrote several books called "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff..." and 1 called "What About the Big Stuff?". They are great books. Then he died suddenly of a pulmonary embolism at age 45 almost 2 yrs ago.
howndy monkey your just in time,we are getting all zen here this morn
Oh nice, I could use it!
good thing he didnt waste time sweating
Hi MG
Okay, the c sucks. ***c cancelled due to lack of interest***
i have one for you all then....
Hi everyone, I'm supposed to be working but you know....
We know.
G'd morning Mich. take a break or 3!
Geez, my coffee was done several minutes ago and I got all caught up in the chat.
Hi Michnick
stone and sea are 2 unalterable symbols of life,pemanance at rest,pemanance in motion,paticipants in the power that remains;)
Neat metaphor
Very nice cross
Hey Scrabbs, off to the doctor this afternoon. Walter still getting slowlky better but still complaining of sore throat and still pale and gets tired easily. Wakt to avoid blood tests if possible, but what sort of things should I ask for? Nose and throat swab?
and that was crossy deep thought of the day,now back to your regualr light useless patter;)
lol cross.
Swabs/cultures are of no use unless Strep throat is suspected. An exam will help. If he is extremely pale then a blood count could be done.
***random hug to Scrabbler*** How 'bout those narcotics?
I wish I'd read your profile more carefully when my daughter was ill Scrabbs!!!
He's not alarmingly pale, just paler than he usually is. I don't suspect anemia, but I'll leave that up to his doctor. Maybe I should just ask for a referral to a pediatrician.
crossy is still waiting for his scrip.....
What was she sick with, Liz?
Yes, Crosshair, I am writing them all out. I am being cautious to avoid drug interactions with the list that you need.
Very sensible Scrabbler.
And Lori, you need more than narcotics...we all do.
she had a bronchitis and a viral influenza type infection. The doc put her on penicillin and she had a sever allergic reaction to it. Ended up not able to even keep water down and was hospitalized with dehydration.
lol, I leave that to your good judgement.
my typing is all over the place, sorry!
oooh - are we shopping for narcotics?
Yes Eva, the line forms to my left.
Just give me the sample pach and I'll get back to you...
pack, I mean...
babbling could become quite lucrative
Poor little girl, Liz.
someone say sample packs?? and i promise only to mix with alcohol;)
we dont want any nasty drug reactions:)
My Dad is allergic to penicillin as well. Fortunately, he knows. Terrible for her Liz
she was for a while Scrabbs - she's only 2 but she's bounced back fine again now. It was scary at the time because my husband was working away
who would suspect an international network of primarily postmenopausal word game addicts?
I am so glad she's OK, Liz!
lolol Eva
err...last i checked im not post menopausal....;/
thanks Monkey and Lori
Andropause. Same thing.
well who knows cross-maybe in some former incarnation(-:
and talk of the devil - here she is now with her grandparents. Delivered back to me to go home for lunch!
Well, I'm exasperated. To the list! ***All hail the great Lickety***
im quite comfy with my middle years thank you!(crossy wipes his new porche while he checks out his toupee and decides that 25 year old waitress really did like him);/
Be back later to continue the struggle! See you all soon, have fun :)
she liked the porche anyway cross, and if scrabbler will write you a scrip for viagra yiou should be able to keep her very happy.
blue pills!!!! gimmie!
I haven't noticed any of the ads for the female sexual enhancement medications lately....have the feeling that women didn't flock to it in droves.
*waves to all* *poof*
**writing my first ever Rx for Viagra, as I have never had an opportunity before as a pediatrician**
bye liz
lol guess not scrabbs:)
Bye Liz of Sark
when Viagra first hit the market apparently there were many, many women distraught that their husbands were pestering them again.
lol,life is well designed,after 15 years of wedded bliss now its my turn to bestow or withhold! mwahahah
It seems to me that as men get older, many of them develop more of the connection between intimacy and sex that eluded them while their hormones were running the show
tis true eva...we get more sleep that way;)
a winner all around
class all the way;)
hi all.....bloody freezing out here today..yesterday was 95..today about 55
you do seem like a very classy guy cross! With a deep perspective on what matters, gained the hard way...usually the only way we humans get it.
glad to hear it,i wont be dying at work today then
Hear too carlee. It poured, once again, over night, and is now quite cool.
im deep alright,wife just wishes id give up and sink to the bottom already
actually i learned much the hard way indeed
Qs are done :) I love the Q words
Hopefully we keep learning and it takes less of a two by four across the skull
Hi Carlee
these is a q today?
hi scrabs...
there* even
is anyone else as OUTRAGED as I am by those gymnastic finals last night ???? Nastia Liukin was ROBBED
didn't watch them..i was reading all night
thees thing i learned must be done at least once a day with a loved one..kiss,hug,praise,make a pain go away,massage a sore muscle and hold hands for at least five minutes:)
Hi Lil*Monkey--yes, I just saw that on Yahoo News. How did that happen???
are there words in this grid
found 15 in an hour;/
ur too busy chatting cross ;O)
the two girls had a TIE score on the uneven bars... in the old days, each would have received a gold medal. The new rules dictate there cannot be a tie. The tie-breaking rules are too complicated to explain here, but it involves dropping one score. The result was that the Chinese girl got the gold.
O agree. monke. The Chinese team should have been disqualified for cheating on the age limit
Guten Morgen, Inge.
oh so true, inge.... I'd love the see Xrays of those chinese gymnasts' femurs...
indeed carlee
I have found 13 words in 45 minutes, because I have been mostly chatting and checking other web sites.
I bet they would not permit Western investigators go to these girls' hometowns to ask their real age
scrabs, did you see our scrabble beta game?
Guten Morgen, Scrabbler and all in the chat room. I found 58 words in an hour
Yes, LM, and I took my turn already.
OK ... BRB
sigh..must get ready for work.im off to hose down this mass of muscle so take care ladies and scrabbs say hello to those plump rabbits for me;)
I must get ready for work too. Bye all. Enjoy the day!
poof
bye cross...was busy cleaning out my computer..getting rid of crap my kids have downloaded.....

good to hear Aussie
Hello Flosey !

Oh, it needs to hold it all in FM, really, it does !

**takes the sausage off Redturtles plate and gives it back to the dog again. He wishes I would make up my mind**
lolol
poor confused dog!
Hello everyone.
lynn, te5,14 is what somebody does in a classroom and the 7 is the person who does it
HI Leigh
Mom, I remember my old dog doing that to my pork chop, about 16 or so years ago... I had put my plate on the coffee table to change the tv channel, and when I turned round, there was a big empty patch on my plate where a big chop had been moments previously !!
hi lil
{{Lilliann}} hello and good morning
Hi leigh and lill
hi all
hi leigh!
lol Aussie
hi mom :-)
hi fm
ty
hi red
yw
Hi Lynn
hi aussie, take it easy at work
Dog sat smiling, and I couldn't help but laugh at him.... He looked like the cat who got the cream...
hi lynn, leigh and lil what is this.. attack of the l people?
hi dorens
lol Lorens :)
Sorry, hey Leigh, Lynn and Lilli !!
lol Aussie, that is sweet
lol dorens
hi aussie
*looms leeringly (is that a word?) for Dorens*
well, he was my friend and protector, who was I to deny him the treat, even if it was my dinner ??
All this food talk has of course made me hungry and reminded me that lunch is long overdue. brb
lovely, leigh. *and laughs at lfmitch*
my cat's like that aussie, you have to be very careful where you put your plate, he'll even sit next to you and paw food of you while eating
hurry back FMitch
**see you soon FM**
*giggle*
Bye FMitch
My Mom-In_laws cats do that !! rofl..
my cat only steals canteloupe. crazy cat, goes nuts when i slice canteloupe
ttfn fm
dorens how odd...
wow Dorens !! he's a cat-o-melon !!
healthy cat dorens!
mine is mad about cheese
and he comes in from another room if i cut into one... he smells it and just goes nuts
our boys allergies prevented us from having pets except for a rabbit
that's neat Dorens
when my daughter was watching him at her apt. and he got scared and ran under the stove she couldn't get him out. she went out to the market and bought a melon.. sure enough, he came out
now they are in their 20's and each has a cat. So I get to cat sit when they go away
my old cat used to love cheese. even fake cheese -- just cheese flavoring! she prefer goo, sliced cheese, but she would even lik the powder off of my doritos!
Awww Mom !!
have to guard those doritos, then
**passes cheese doritos to Eva for her puss**
my old cat loved crisps...cheese and onion and prawn coktail were her favourite
whoo hoo, storm is heading totally eastern....
rabbits aren't bad tho.. just ask scrabbler!
Ew prawn cocktail...
would you not get a cat now mom?
alas, that cat has since passed. she was a beauty, she was!
Rabbits are lovely....
Awww, sorry Eva..
I had a cat that loved green beans, strawberries and olives... those were her favorite treats... *sigh*
and she use to love kentucky fried chicken, she was the best cat i ever had and is missed
We had Jones for 6 years. He got to where he would only eat popscicles. Took him to the vet and he had a cancer in his jaw bone. :(
she was a rescue cat, so i never knew her true breed, but i think she mightve been a russan blue or something similar...
ewww, olives
*giggle*
My M-I-L has a chocolate seal point.... he is gorgeous !
a moment of silence for cats we have known and loved
:-( mom
Lilliann, our oldest is trying to get us to take a kitten from the litter a stray just had but I am undecided. Sweetie doesn't care but I just don't know. All the kittens are spoken for though
Ohh, hail to the Cats.
and there ahve been many... Amen.
..................
I have a cat who was born the runt, and he certainly lives up to his job. He has a cleft lip, cataracts, is mostly deaf, and was once hit by a motorcycle that took most of the skin off his back leg.
oh Leigh, and he is precious, I bet
I will change my icon to one of the newbies. Be right back
I must say the Governor is giving a press confrence about the storm and he still makes it sounds just horrific, and to behonest, so far it has not been too bad...
I love my Arnold. The way he randomly falls over, how I can only get him into the house anymore by holding my hand down so he can smell it and I guide him in...
sounds like 2 cats i had leigh, not good starts in life but one lived til he was atleast 20 and the otherone was about 12
Arnold is at least 9. We can't remember anymore! He'll probably outlive me, the way he's going..
down to ten. must eat breakfast and get some stuff done... see you later
and the 20 year old had a bad heart, lungs, eyes and was a dribbler but i loved him
Bye Dorens
lilli, yo umust have adored him if he was a dribbler.
bye for now dorens
later Dorens !
i did red, but the wet legs did begin to get annoying but he was so sweet.him and my other cat would be nudging eachother off of my lap
well, got to go and get ready for work now... Will be back after 11pm my time.... *poofing, after leaving chocolate kisses on the table**
Ok, now Ijust heard that a windsurfer was windsurfing in the tropical storm....of course she became a totally non essential emergecny patient....
ridiculous.
bye aussie, take care
some people don't use their brains red
I will admit, I am going out for a drive today, but I have an appointment with the Cardiologist...not the ocean.
hope there's nowt too serious red
The reports are sketchy so far....We are still in wait and see mode, apparently the wrost will come to my area at 2 am on Wednesday.

ahhhhhh, mom, he is so cute!
just about 3 weeks Hurshy.
thanks Lilliann
He is a sweetie
i keep telling my hubby, that i'm going to go and get a kitten from the cat's society after christmas, but knowing me i'll get the mangiest cat
he is cute. The mother is just a kitten herself. She was a stray that our son rescued from almost being hit by a bus.
i always get the ones with lots of problems
we have the son of a stray that adopted our daughter
hi everyone - dashing in and out to say hi and bye- wll have to babble later but I just found the hi 6 on the right - hi**** hernia

hi jbv
hi and bye JBV, have a good day

so they will all grow up in the same building
thanks for the hi clue, needed that one
bye bye JBV

Not that I know of, flosey.
I use to date a chap with that last name, he was french from east coast Canada

Mine is the first.

okie dokey
i guess i'll figure it out by the end of the day
yes, le5 is French for light (opp of heavy, not light as in bulb) :-)
oohhh, and ch6 and 7 are french as well :-)
This grid does not look to friendly.
right u are, une, and also english; at leas the 6
it's not, Bea :-(
yup :-)
how are things in the seat of power this morning, dc? :-)
humid :) but quiet, une
and i'm hopping the foxes and/or racoons and/or opossums didn't get into the trash overinght
bea, it looks not unfriendly, but it's a vicious facade
ugh, can't stand possums . . .ick
I was hoping I could go three days straight with no list. We will see.
they're cute when the young are on the mother's backs, une, but otherwise, yes like a wet rat
you may, bea, best with it :)
good luck Bea
Thanks, flosey and dc.

stupidhead spam, got a trojan horse, it was blocked by my virus protection but I still had to re-boot
bummer, harp
what bother, harp, glad you came out of it okay.
une - make it your icon - then I would never finish the grid!!!
delicious, eh?
*wondering how much trouble I would cause at work by using nadal for my new desktop wallpaper*
i have dial up so it's the electronic equivalent of a brontosaurus
do it do it do it
dialup? you have my bounteous sympathies
probably be acused of sexualharassment or something : )
:-D
good morning kje
darn you une - you have be all aflutter and distracted now
hi josh!
but in such a GOOD way, kje! LOL
we're going to have to upgrade our tv by feb 2009 i guess, so we'll probaby get something bundled with that for the INnternet
sounds good, harp :-)
*fanning self with calendar*
wow..josh...looks like I outscored you in a scramble round...I'm amazed!
harp, is your icon Itchy?
or, rather Scratchy?
woohoo babs!
wtg, babs!
une - when is he scheduled to play here in the states next? we should get tcikets and go together!
way to go, babs, i had almost forgotten all about our scramble games
or Dopey, or Sneezy, or Rafael?
last ch 5/14?
so, it's some cat, not a specific cat then, harp?
Hi folks! Just on for a few minutes after the doctor's and before the housework. How is everyone?
morning, monkeyG :)
oh, sorry, kje, was browsing thru the whole slideshow . . .
hi MG!
I am looking for the last ch5, MG - and no one will help me : )
he'll be in the US Open which starts 8/25
darn, that is a little too soon, too late for tickets
I ahve no ch's at all, kje, sorry!
it rhyme with sikinny cowboy tie, kje
dcseain clued it better than i could have
Amazing how many Spanish words get accepted.
TY DC!!!
By the way the doctor said he wouldn't be surprised if it takes Walter another 2 or 3 weeks to really be right again so not to worry (unless he gets worse agin or somethinG), and I now have diclofenac for the back.
spanish, french, german, yiddish, scots... yes many a word from many a language
hey all!
hi bee!
oh, portuguese, almost forgot as senhoras e os senhores LOL
Hi!
i participated in icon themes today! ty ty
LOL bee - good for you!
kje, changed my icon!
refreshing...
Hey, folic is too a word!!!
wowser!!!
many words not accepted are frustrating me today and only some spanish words and not others - why no consistency?
wow, i've motored through the last 40 with barely any help from lickety
going to change my icon before i leave - what's the theme today
are you done josh?
4 left
no wonder you're so good with Scramble, josh! non-motoring through first 40 here...lol
I would have motored through - FYI - but I am always distarcted by une's icons and it really screws me up!
HAH!
bad une, bad!
uh, yah, me too kj
halfway, listless . . . later, dudes and dudettes
later nadal!
I mean une!
Phantom: tacit
mankey mania over here - the little buggers are actually doing their job for once - go monkeys go!
an alt spelling of it is valid, monkeyG
Oh, ok... thanks...
Cool, lookit that!
nobody told me the icon theme so now i don't know what to change mine to
Found a Chinese gooseberry...
those grow in the westfields of Chantilly, Virginia.
... rafa is always a good choice josh
todays icon theme is taekwondo
Anyone willing to clue the re8?
RE8 ends in PT of to eat
re + evil jelly substance made from ground up animal bones
avoiding re's at the moment
sorta
really? that is a word?
fattech isn't a word?
going crazy
otherwise known as ge6/24
define bee
yes that substance is evil and i avoid it at all costs since i was old enough to realize what it was
it was a joke kj
The ge is just plural Italian ice creams...
"there's always room for evil jelly substance made from ground up animal bones!"
doesn't mean it can't have a definition
true - but it was self descriptive
LOL harp!
Thank you one and all
(just when you thought i was going to behave)
hMMM, my ge6 spurns the re... must have the wrong one.
there's two ge6's i think
Yes, I did have the wrong one. Diff end vowel.
teensie clue for the hi...teensy?
GE6 x2 -- swap the last letter
having to do with taking a long break, kje
OK, got to go. Have fun all!
NM!
no no no - it is part of the stomach
josh! I just saw your new icon! tsk tsk
is the re6 to do something again?
noo, i'm changing it again - that image was the wrong aspect ratio and it got squished
and nobody wants that
LOL
Harp, re+ la4 is one re6
there - new icon, correct aspect ratio, and it's rated PG
what about the first one bzz? i forgot there were two
any clue for the te6/24?...last one I need
Don't have any others. Sorry
and right on time i gets tha fireworks
kinda creepy - like it is watching me
woohoo josh!
ouwachita, it is putting two vowels onto the name of someone who loves computers...try that...
thanks ddb...got it
yvw!
And isn't it odd that it wont take tech, but will take te6?
I tried the double e, but didnt think of the right one
hey kids
that icon is gonna give me nightmares
joshua vorbis you played your own song?
no one congratulating josh???? shame shame shame
indeed, bea
congrats, josh!
WOOHOO! JOSH!
WTG joshua!
congrats, josh!!!
that is better
there, i changed it one last time, just for you guys' sweet dreams
oh, uh, yeah, i guess i did
his icon frightened me too much and distracted me
this icon is PG13, so exercise caution
where can i hear your album?
ROFL - josh - you are a brat
i don't have an album, per se
the other one was def PG-13
I still see the clocks.
this one is great!
where can i hear your non album?
though my friend did want to press some vinyl in the uk of some of my stuff
i did have some songs on myspace but i took them down - don't worry, they're weird and if you thought my previous icon was disturbing...
ok, so where can I hear your non album stuff. i like weird music and actually like weird stuff. i just am frightened in particular by clowns and puppets
as are many people
hank williams, josh?
i saw last night that there's a clown school that made a naked clown calendar for charity - it was frightening
i like hank williams
frightened of clowns?
i imagine! i don't like clowns that are puppets mainly
not really real clowns, but doll type clowns and some dolls that have that weird stare thing going on
i had the naked mortician calendar a while ago, "Men of Mortuaries"
http://www.nakedclowncalendar.com/
i like hank williams too.
LOL harp
i would so buy the naked mortician calendar
hopefully they would slip a character from six feet under in there somewhere
google it, they might still be doing it
the young redhead would do nicely
maybe harp will link it for you. you might like my friend Brian Wright - he has a jolly little band
I loved 6 feet
Brian Wright and the Waco Tragedies - i like to plug him when i can.
what's the ac 5/14 folks?
he is on my FB page i think
sneeze sound sharon
sharon - think what happens when you sniff too much pepper
silly me, thanks joshua
firewords :)
and i must away. later, yall!
WTG dc seain!
woohoo DC!!!!
wtg :)
i must poof as well - any clues needed before i go?
bye joshua!
is this grid hard, or am I just tired?
I hate it!
there are a few clunkers, but it's mostly ok, i thought
lo 6/24?
think if a woman were named after a scottish lake
nm
thanks
ok, have fun, kids
bye josh

how so?
ho 6/21?
sorry, sharon... don't have it yet, and it would appear that everyone else fell off the face of the earth for a bit
lol. Thanks seans
SharonRA the ho is like the co6/21
ho6 - moonshine or slang for alcohol
rhymes with dog
that's the 5/16 I think bgl
Oops, sorry! you're right - I need my eyes fixed
but thanks anyway....and thans scribe, got it

Okay.. I have coffee now...a list printed...I am taking this grid down.. I am taking this grid down..(my new mantra)
and back..
that was a long one, beeze
i know! i actually moved two loads to Canada and did some dishes too - very productive little break!
wow! travel has gotten faster!
ai 5/14 anyone?
well - i covered two loads to Canada i should say - one to pick up tomorrow that will deliver Friday and the other will pick up Thursday and delivery either Fri or mon - depends on how bad the guy wants to deliver i suppose
ruru: what you call the letter H
the sound of the letter H
yeah, sorry. i know what you do for a living, i was just making a terrible joke... really the only thing i'm good at
thanks
don'tsay such things - you are good at many more things than that silly.
true... i do make a mean vodka sour :P
lol! save that recipe - KJ will want it!
hahaha
btw, your icon today: hilarious
thanks! i am participating in the icon themes
i feel bad for submitting themes and not participating. i want to make sprite proud!
well, i'm sure she would be
too much work to change my icon every day...
it is a lot, but i decided to try and put forth the effort
i barely have enough energy to type in the chog, haha
lol i do too and to complete the grid both!
pl5 please?
seriously... i'm just passing 100 words left! moving so slow today
just got that one pugster pl + * **nnot figure out the rest of the words!
the rest of the PLs are from there
ty miss
i have 34 left Sean
yw pugster
23 here but slower then a constipated sloth
now that's slow!
this grid is evil in my opinion
34 left... you'll finish and be long gone before i get that far
ooh now THAT'S slow! :D
lol - sure is. i tried forever to figure out how to make po6/24 plural - no workie
i'll be here all day! finished or not!
there's a po6/24....
i don't understand why lo4/5 is a word but ocho isn't... there are so many inconsistencies
yes TO!
yes but theres no plural
po6/24 --cops
there are a bunch of spanish words that are not words but some are. so annoying.
i have a po5 and po7... no 6 yet
and there is a PO7
i don't have the PO7
ty. i have po7.
but its before the 6
the PO6 is the cops - that is the one i was trying to make into a 7 lol
po7--an illegal game hunter
beeze - illegal hunter?
or cooker of eggs?
oh - thanks pugster! i had the sing. blah!
yw dear
yesterday's grid had my av animal word. i've only seen it twice in a grid.
thanks for that 6, beeze... hadn't seen it yet
Are there more than 2 PLs?
yw!
4 pl's
there are 4 Bzzz a 4,5,6, and 7
TY
they are all related though
got the 7 just now... builds off the 5, how similar is the 6?
nm... got it
latin pl end
the 4 may not be related, but it is easy to monkey
re6/24 clue please?
what's the te 6/21?
can anyone help me out with the either of the last co21 plz? Just completely stuck on them.
re6 is double vowel + make a ***ice
te is annoying and i don't know it. it was clued before, but i still haven't figured out the clue
don't have those either Sandie :(
dont get it miss
hi again - back in time to clue the te 6/24 - the guy who fixes your computer
got that one,
its the 6/21 I need
make a ***ice as in a decision
fl 7 clue cannot find it
me too Sharon - i have the 6/24
Any clues for those pesky co6/21 words!
co 6/21 is an awful slang for for Chinese workers
co6/21---jacket + vowelX2
re + sounds back again
i have none of the FLs ruru -
co6/21 #2--means of intercourse
got that one pugmama - is the last 2 cannot find at all.
co6#3
if you have the f. 5/16, just extend that
co4+2 vowels
Sharon the te6 starts with the same three letters of te6 then add opp of short
i keep wanting to put in "Floo" like floo powder from harry potter
thanks
aahhh...thank you bzz
thank you so much for the co21 clues! You have saved my life!!!
beeze, after a belly fl** into the water you start fl***ing down the river
close, sean! :)
I tried floo too sean
she just said she didn't have any FL words, so I was trying to help out
ty Sean!
ok, 30 left for tonight. have fun, kids!
potter fan too, kathryn?
have read them all
me too... a few times, haha... can't wait for the 6th movie in november :)
the movies are so-so - like the books better
well, of course!
i still enjoy seeing the stories on screen, though
yes, I'll see it
fo 5/16 after the aluminum
please
F+ margarine
The 6th Harry Potter movie was moved to next summer, Sean.
Add a vowel at the end, ru
change last vowel
thanks
te6/24 still don't have it?
i mean 6/21
me neither
that word is so annoying to me
te6/21 - add consonant to the te5 before it
I don't have that one.
when did that happen bethaney?
First three letters of the te6/24 + opp of short
everything on imdb still says november...
i don't have the 5 or the 6 kj!
same three first letters as te 6/24... then the opposite of short minus last consonant.
They announced the move this week, Sean. Twilight has been moved to fill the before Thanksgiving slot.
So if you are a Twilight fan, Sean, it's still good news! haha! (Haven't read those books myself)
te 5/12 is the te 6/21 minus the last vowel
wow! that's so disappointing!
i actually just bought the first twilight book after a friend recommended it, just starting it and liking it so far
haven't heard of twilight
It is due to the writer's strike. There weren't many big blockbusters for next summer, so the Harry Potter folks decided to capitalize on the vacuum. It'll make so much money with less competition.
Never heard of Twilight...what is the genre?
I started to read Twilight but I had too many books going at once. It's a YA vampire book.
it's fantasy, i suppos, mom2han
fantasy?
I love YA lit
it takes place in our current world only vampires have always existed and we've always known about them...
sci-fi?
OK... I will read it and then pass it on to my kid... thanks!
aaaahhh - vampires, hmmm
ok, so i am being dense i suppose, but te6/24 first 3 letters plus opp of short?
nm got it
i like YA a lot too... seems so much more creative sometimes
wow i am dense
Half way - No list. BBL *poof*
I think I only made it to the end of Chapter one. I didn't even get to the good bits, I am sure. My book pile is steadily growing smaller. I will have to add it back to the bottom.
was that a positive or negative reaction to vampires, kathryn?
YA?
Young Adult
young adult
haven't really read the genre - don't get the whole sucking blood thing
so i am looking at the L and the O on the grid and thinking opp of short is long and not getting the clue forever! lol!
well, maybe you'd get it if you read about it, haha.... no its not for everyone... i did like the anne rice vampire books though
brb - phone call
once again i don't like things that aren't real
bee - it is OK - we all do it
fl6/27 anyone plz?
yahoo!! i'm getting a new fridge!
well, i do like Harry Potter though - hmmm?
whoo hoo Sean!
fl 6 - powder harry potter uses in the chimney _ 2 more vowels
yahoo sean
landlord just called telling me that they couldn't fix the problem with the freezer in my fridge, so they're just buying me a totally new one...
From what I have read thus far, Twilight is much more in the vein of a gothic romance with more melodrama and chastity and such.
hmmm
wow that fl word is stoopid! Thanks so much kje
i've heard that too, bethaney, but i haven't gotten that far yet
yw
kind of deserves a z in the middle
I need one of the le 5/14's I have the old molester and the slimy water thing.. need the other
nm found it
haha, beeze
le + richard ***e (actor)
you don't like things that aren't real, beeze? wouldn't that mean that you just don't like any fiction at all?
thanks, kje. Needed that one too.
thanks kje found it just after I asked..
yw
bbm
pulled a peri
more coffee
bbm?
ooooh - sounds good - me too - BRB
hardly any actually. It is rare. I have had stints of fiction that I have enjoyed. I liked Anne Rice and read the books in the day, but would not enjoy them now. I used to like Sidney Sheldon books, but probably wouldn't enjoy his work anymore. I like true writing - true crime, documentaries, biographies, etc.
do you like movies or TV shows at all that aren't non-fiction?
and I enjoyed Harry Potter. I read Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy years ago, although it was a long read i admit - but i enjoyed it. I used to love to read - i read really early
i don't know what it is about fiction now
movies i like, but not tv
Some books are good for a season, and you can only enjoy them at that time. Some of my favorite books I've never reread. I'm afraid I'll stop loving them if I do. :)
9 to go
fi5 please?
i do not enjoy television programs. Since Seinfeld, nothing has held my attention. I like old Twilight Zone and watch the marathons
one of my recent favorites has been the "His Dark Materials" trilogy. absolutely loved it
Go Sharon!
well, i suppose you are consistent then, beeze, haha
not too many people out there that don't enjoy a good fiction story every now and then... i can't get enough of them
i enjoy only reality television - i love true crime shows and independent films - real stuff
i suppose real life just isn't interesting enough for me? hmm... what does that say about me?
i enjoyed the show House most recently, but only for about half a season and lost interest....
reality TV can be okay... i really hated it at first
i don't know!? i don't know what the opp says about me!
fi5 = f + the reason you scratch
now i can't stand the show.
definitely like House a lot... still very much into it
ty srcibe
you're welcome
i find television too predictable - the humor does not amuse me - it is like i know it is coming - every joke, every one liner - blah!
pugmama763-add 2 vowels to that one for the next fi
movies i love though - weird
maybe you're just not watching the right comedy shows :)
ty scribe! I needed those too.
no, not even the office amuses me
ty scribe
the office is okay... best sit com ever was arrested development
some of my best friends love the show arrested development. i admit i didn't give it a chance...don't give sitcoms a chance anymore
all the humor on the office is just awkward silences...
arrested development was hilarious! but loved seinfeld too
yes, in general sit coms are bad
breeze, I find most American tv unfun. But I like to dive into the vaults of BBC and the canceled stuff for watching pleasure. I'm with you though. I'd rather watch a movie.
liked the bristish office a little - hate the american version
i did enjoy Curb Your Enthusiasm
seinfeld was also very good, but arrested development is sooo funny. you really should give a shot, beeze
kje, same here! The american version for me is unwatchable now. :)
arrested development is laugh out loud funny at times
really, i'll have to give it a shot - Sean, when does it come on - you are my time zone
that's what happens with every british turned american show... america ruins it
oh, more than just at times for me, kathryn... i laugh way too hard during that show
it is over bee - would need to rent it or watch reruns
well, it's not on anymore, beeze
i love Monty Python and british humor/tv, but mostly the older stuf
stuff*
fox always cancels the best shows...
i'll have to get a DVD and see if i like it
eh on Python - so so
you might like "The Mighty Boosh" if you like british humor, beeze
not a slap stick fan
Me too, breeze. When Monty is good, it's reeeeally good.
i like the movies, not the show KJ
why did it get cancelled? did it end or get cancelled?
oh, well.. maybe not if you didn't like the monty python show
i used to love Carol Burnett and friends! Remember watching with my mom
it got cancelled... because fox is ridiculous
they always cancel shows at the height of their popularity
li 5/14
i didn't like the Monty Python show - i like the movies. I actually was not allowed to watch the show
futurama, another of my favorite shows, canceled at their peak by fox
li - feudal lord
it's okay though, they're making an arrested development movie...
any clues for first 2 ac's?

Hi again. Just on 'til House in a bit... How is everyone? I am feeling greatly relieved, Walter is much more himself finally.
glad to hear that Monkey, did the doctors ever figure out what he had
hello all
hey Monkey
hey Peri
No. We were there again today though, and the doctor said he expects Walter will be 100% within 2 or 3 weeks.... Some sort of heavy hit from one of the millions of not-well-defined virii out there.
someone here recently spoke of a book: Tales of A Female Nomad, stating they liked it. I just took it out of the library. Read on chapter and it is very good so far.
Thing is, other people have been saying he seems fine... But Walter is such a sunny boy! He foinds everything funny or charming or pleasing, and in recent weeks there has been very little laughter around here. Until today.
glad to hear that he is doing better though, Monkey, it is just as hard for you as for him
*meant: read one chapter*
That was me Peri. My mother sent it to me. Quite a good ogical traveler perspective.book, especially from an anthropolig
WEiRD! Can you reconstruct that or shall I?
oh, was it you, Moneky? I understood your message
Yeah, Mom sent way back for Christmas, and I finally read it this May. Really enjoyed it.
sent IT
not sure that I could what the author is doing, like to travel but really like to get home
*could do*
*could do*
having a a really hard time with my internet connection
thanks for mentioning the book, Monkey
I will recommend it to my friends
I do like having a home base, yes. But I could do much of the things she does if I had a way to make money on the road like she does.
not liking this grid.
No problem!
yay, that is a good point, Monkey, the making of money
No, I stalled out HOURS ago at 44.
would you mind traveling alone?
me neither peri, am on the list already at 46 words down
going to read for a while, bbl
She's a children's book writer. I'm an illustrator. But somehow I have missed a lot of connections or something. I even find references to my website from people who "would like to work with me" an dyet the work doean't come in....
any one got the le5/14 after the blood sucking creature plz?
Now that I have a family that has all changed. But before that no, I would have liked traveling alone.
that's the one that sounds liek something you use for book=keeping?
No, sorry!
Book keeping?
clue for ch 6 please
nods
Traveling alone is fun. When I was 17 I went for 6 weeks in Guadalajara and didn't know anyone. It was great! I did go through a University so I had a base of people I could go to though, but I did a week in Barra de Navided and was the only non-Mexican there. VERY nice little town!
book-keeprs used to use led***s
Oh of course - thanks a lot jac q
smiles np
i don't have that one yet Boo sorry

Hi all, I am back from the obligatory purchase of milk and bread. How is everyone?
hey red
i have 64 left....
bet it wont take you as long as it took me then red
i've been at it on an off all day...
Hi. I have been popping in & out all day. I got 50 words fairly quickly but I seem to be stuck at 65.
Can someone clue the ge6 that goes together with the re8?
think icecream
it sounds like re6/16
Hmmm I tried something like that here goes.
I don't have the re6/16
ahhhhhhhhhh
ok re6 is a bit like family
Thanks jacq, got the ge6 & the re8.
yw
like when you can understand someone situation Michnick, you might say... I can re****
I have that re6 but it's an 18 pointer
did you get re6
oh sorry my bad
Yup, I had it
i think jacq means re6/18
ooops
I think so too, runner, that's what through me
i did
bad clue i'm sorry
mich try reg is never on time
Actually a good clue, I got the words!
58 to go
i am female, but can't babble and do grid at same time - must be coming down with something - is there a doctor in the house
doesnt look like it at the moment Runner bean...
nope
well ok then, am off to bed, can i give a hand to anyone 4 i go?
I need a lot of help. Can you clue some ac's. I havce the 2 you get with a cold
ac4/5 will find this on stage
Thanks Runner, I need the 2 first ones (i think)
ac5/12 top card thankyou
Good, thank you! (Keep going)
ac6/21 +el to previous clue
No, sorry runner, I'm not getting that one.
not literally el, but rather what one letter sounds like the word =D
hey ice
Thanks Ice!
hi jacq... how goes?
ty runner that last ac had me stumped
goes slow very slow
how many ac's are there? I just got here...
5
There are 5, now I'm on to find the ae
oh good. then i got them all =D
lol *mutters about folks showing off*
welcome to the grid Ice.
the ae is somewhat related to the fbi but not quite
thx mich for mentioning ae ... got it
thx red
Thanks Jacq, got it! (Now Ice - don't start really showing off)
lol
sorry... some babblets stick with me... ae words happen to be one... dunno.. I like ae words I guess...
s'okay
name that proper noun! german philosopher
By the way, I read Harry Potters - how come Babble doesn't know that floo is a word!?
i have no idea what a noun is
it's probly trademarked by the powder company that makes it
lol
Good point Hurshy
ai's anybody?
a noun is the name of a person place or thing - at least that is what my teachers told me
H
yeah... proper nouns and any capitalized words dont count. and also the dictionary this game uses is older than Harry Potter
ai 2 nd one sounds like a letter - one after g
i moved school a lot during my formative years i missed most of that noun pronoun stuff, but i can construct a failry good sentence
ty runner i thought i had tried that one, obviously not
the other is a vowelly babblet
it some kind of food
got it, ty runner
ai - sounds a bit like alioli
and if you take another food made by chef boyardee and remove the R and the V you'll...
Ahhh, thanks Hurshy. I should've seen that!
its a mayo based spread used in sandwiches and wraps... very good stiff
fattening tho, i live in spain and it comes with eveything
LOTS of garlic
everything is fattening
Ok talk about Mayo inspires me to make an attempt to eat dinner...winds are blowing hard here.
nope still nothing
what part of spain do you live in?
Canary islands
funny.. I like the ai word but hate mayo
ol
that seems quite exotic to me Runner!!
what does red
what's the water situation like there?
can i have another clue for the ai please?
drinkable, i mean.
living int he Canaries...
anything with the word Island on it...to me, except Rhode Isalnd.
ai + spanish cheer but change last vowel
rhode island is exotic... just not in a good way
hi all, icon and themes updated for tomorrow!
ai = the letter after g
ty ice smiles
hi sprite
hey sprite
Sprite Hi , whats tomorros theme...I shoud switch since Lomong is done.
Hurshy - will we know Wednesday morning if you are BO's VP?
tennis, red. See mine :D *giggles*

you can know that right now, knight - i'm not!
My sister lives in RI...I did a contract there a few years back, it was nice, some good bakeries on Federal Hill... but...
I see it now sprite.!
hiya hursh, I emailed you back right away :D
noooooo! I had such high hopes
we need a babbler in the exec branch
Did you get the ai jacq?
Well, we can all travel in Florida now witout paying tolls...but no one really wants to move.
yes i did, ty so much
yes, i saw that sprite, and thankee :) it may be a bit of awhile before the prof gets his act together enough to actually get it really going, but i will keep you posted.
i'm not old enough to hold the office of VP
wonderful. I hope it works out, would love to do it.
Florida I boring
is*
49 to go ciggie time again
Can anyone help with the ce?
interesting typo, lolll
maybe secretary of state then
lower minimum age for s of s?
first part of what you see when you look up, Mich
cannot be in line to become pres unless you qualify to be pres I believe
THanks Sprite!
dancing on the ******* minus the ing
ce clue that is
ah then i will have to wait until next time around
not sure if that is true -
help with the right hand R's?
yw :) I am off, should try and get some sleep tonight, for a change. Bye all, have fun babbling and living.
I think you would lose your chance,
I have changed icon for tomorro...
though I am not a fan of tennis at all.
ohhh nice one, red!
but if someone younger than 35 were speaker of the house, they could be speaker and forfeit there sucession to pres
some of the cabinet members changed when bush's second term started, so maybe the same will be true again
TY Sprite, I liked the image.
Yours though is funny!!!
michnick did u understand the ce clue
Perfect clue, thought I sent a big TY!
cabinet is appointed by president, so of course they will change with the president usually
if Barack becomes president I imaginne the cabinet would change quite a bit.
but, i dunno if you can be a cabinet member if you are always singing goofy songs about your cats anyway
McCain, not so much.
YAWN YAWN Nite all, gl with rest of grid
that's seems like it would qualify you
?
Good Night runnerb!
What I meant is - Does the ch7 build from the 6?
"night runnerb
ok I didnt get the ce word
yes mich
yes, michnick
it is one who ch6's
it is a fancy spelling of a red-or-black game disk
ce + not well - last letter
I am missing something because it is not working for me.
it is the chancellor of the exch7
add a consonant to ch6
OK, it was what I had tried but I kept hitting an extra key.
Oh no, must be time for bed.
Good night all and thanks!
nite, mich :-)
bbiab
"poof*
poll: if you could be healthy and beautiful and smart and happy, would you want to live forever on this earth (or at least, say, in this universe, in case we get better at space travel)
would everyone else be healthy and beautiful etc. as well?
yes. or at least everyone who chose to.
hmmmm
would the earth continue in its current condition?
define current condition
the way it is now
going to hell in a handbasket?
i know but which ASPECTS of the way it is now are you thinking of
all aspects
well clearly many aspects would change
would i have to remain where I live now?
no
and if I am in jail, do I have to remain there?
by definition if *everyone* became smart then a lot of todays problems would work itself out I think
hmm, trickier one
ARE you in jail?? LOL
if everyone is smart, then by definition everyone is stupid
exactly, ice
and knight, unless sentenced to death, there is a time limit on jail... life is 99 years...
what if the only way I can remain happy is to remain in jail
then you would be allowed to stay
and waht if the only way i can be happy is to be smarter than everyone else
let me rephrase the poll: if the world became very close to utopia, would an indefinite lifespan appeal to you?
or more beautiful . . .
and happiness is relative to good happenings... so as they say.. you can't please all the people all the time...
much better question
so there would be no medical profession, eh?
happness is a choice irrespective of conditions
with everyone healthy
there would be a medical profession, that's what would keep people healthy
ooohhh
back into a deep convo
hurshy... Id rather just die and go to heaven as I already intend to do then if its all the same to you
so we definitely would want the medical people happy
on the one hand, i'm glad people are all thinking deeply about this - but thanks ice for the first actual answer :)
knight LOL!
no
what's YOUR answer, hursh?
my answer is no
because . . .
the problem with your question is that it is an impossibility in a free will environment
may i ask what the question is?
because i already don't know what to do with myself, what do i need more time to sit around twiddling my thumbs for?
it may be less impossible than you think
but, hopefully you are right and things will go wrong.
hurshy.... dont get the wrong idea... I desire to live forever or at least until my time has come, but just like heaven and hell, utopia is defined by one's ideals and to attempt to create that on earth... I'd rather be in heaven and live by God's ideals
as so often quoted in the matrix trilogy.. the problem is choice =D
i'm reading "citizen cyborg", you see, and it's all about advances in biotech, nanotech, etc etc, and the author is very optimistic and also very enthusiastic about the possibilities
hello, back for 15 minutes or so before the end of the work day
read brave new world for a more realistic view
see the future is far more likely to end up like the star wars universe than the star trek one.
I came back about a minute ago, but then saw une's icon... and became speechless
he's not THAT good looking! haha
or at the least... like the book the moon is a harsh mistress
i guess i figure, God won't allow anything to work if he really doesn't want it to work, and he can end the world whenever he wants, and if someone were able to become immortal (here) and they chose that, and stuck with that choice, then they probably wouldn't have chosen God in any case.
I need the co6/21 between the two co5s please
so, i won't worry about it. besides, the author probably IS overconfident.
there's only one co5, so there isn't a co6 between two co5s
hello all :)
hey nan
Sorry about that. I should have said the two c04/5s.
related to sex
knight was just waiting to say that :)
Thanks KnightTime.
riiiiiiiiiiiiiight
your welcome bettyanne, i hope you enjoyed it
welcome back kje, has your heart started again.
Of course!
ok, tip of the day, add ee to stuff a lot.
hi red... I remain speechless...
but your heart is beating. theme manana is tennis...
LOLKT
is it really red??? we should have just made it rafa
theme tomorrow - nadal - I want to see a lot of rafa out there!
it might be like 180, buts it going....
I just have balls kje, no nadal, I am not a big tennies fan.
hey kje
LOL red
hi jac
but kje, all you have is asparagus.
back again
so but, seriously, nobody out there lurking would jump at the chance for (here) immortality? i'm surprised, thought we'd be split on it
Hey all. Back for the last 19. Still no list...
jump at the chance for immortality? live out all the people i love? get tired of monotonous life? that's okay...
hi bea. i still have 50 left.
the people you love could be immortal also. but the monotony... yeah.
sean has been reading too many fantasy novels involving vampires...
it'd be a different story if the people i love could it with me i suppose
haha
i just thought there would be SOME people who would think it sounded great. if not, then those scientists are really wasting their time coming up with stuff people don't want.
i mean, living a long and healthy life is one thing..,
well, i did have an accelerated stress test today, cards says not to get another one for 20 years...
hursh - it isn't gonna happen
not in our life time anyway
but how long is long :)
yes, i am more worried about my quality of life however long/short it is
woohoo red (stress test at your age???)
hello? anybody home?
yes my heart rate is 41, and my qt was long and the qtc was 488 which apparently gives me a long qt syndrome...
hard to set a number, hurshy... guess i'll know when i get there... i suppose i'm not most aged person either, so i'm probably not the best to ask on the topic
red, are you OK?
just looked monkey - no one on here
well, anyone have the re8?
i agree, knight
did the tropical storm hit where you live?
I am fine. My heart is lovely. But I can tell you , jogging on a treadmill at 18% incline is a bit hard.
in
Now I am watching the mild tropical storm.
Is there an LI7 or a LO7?
That re 8/50 word is re plus the ge 6/24 word hurshy
Monkey its scehduled to be bad at Weds 2 am....right now...just very very windy and bands of sideways rain.
big storms are kinda cool, as long as you are safe... nature can be pretty awesome
hang in there , red :)
that's good that your heart is healthy, red. keep it that way!
but not for too long...
thanks min
Hi all. Would anyone help me with li5/14? Having a devil of a time...
It is interesting, I am a bit worried about driving to work.
hello all
no li or lo 7
there is an le7
TY Knight.
I am very glad my heart is fine. though not sure what to do about the long qt.
re8 : have italian ice cream again
most definitely, kathryn. i love big storms
when do you have to go in red?
li 5/14 is a feudal lord entitled to allegiance & service
and how much longer is this job?
the only li word I have is a nut
my li5/14, the peasant said to his master
I need to be there by 6:30 7 am...
OK thanks for the li5
till October., I want to extend though again.
you don't have the bugs in hair?
well, monkey...sometimes you feel like a nut....
OK now i do
what a lovely thought, bugs in hair
sometimes you don't!
i must be off, gotta close up shop... see you tomorrow
: ) I love monkey
nix will help now that you have the bugs.
here's a better thought. pigs... in... spaaaaace!
Oh...geez...right in my face. Thanks so much Hurshy and Min.
bye sean
licher
oooooops
Bye sean...have a good day evening...

have fun kajee and tell sis HAPPY BDAY form lil*monkey!!!
hi everyone :)
MOM! you missed my pubic lice story
hi (((mom)))
bye (((mom)))
hi {{KJE}} and bye bye
{{Lil Monkey}} hello, should I scroll back and read it?
i guess i need the O collection word
just what EVERY mom wants to hear monkey - ROFL *poof*
not if you're squeamish
let me see ..........
o4.4 = sounds like butter substitute
TY knight... i did not know that word meant a collection
I am missing an LE. I have 2 LE4, 4 LE5, 1 lE7?
Found it.
what is the other le4, Bzzn? I have the thingie that falls off a tree
A pervert.
what le6.24 does
is there an hi?
BTW, i am the first le5.
Oh Lil Monkey, that is just plain disgusting. I am with you though ... shave
oh OK i had that word with the cross letter in the middle... now i see there's another spelling
Hi Cybernan and Knight, and Bzzz
i did, mom, i did!!!!!
Hi, Mom.
I would have too
I have a hi5
what university was this?
maybe i shouldn't say...
it's in Virginia tho
it was a while ago
Still missing four Hs though
Va tech?
it was in 1974-5
nearby mom
that is the only one I know in VA
that was the year I graduated high school, 1975
i graduated high school 1974
my last h -- must be the hi 5
1971
so this was spring of 75 i think
hi 6
my sister graduated in 74
there is no hi5
where mom?
there is an ho5
what did your parents say about that
Oh, sorry.
oh good lord mom, i DIDN'T TELL THEM THAT!
then I'm missing the hi 6 -- clue?
Villa Madonna Academy in Villa Hills KY
ho5 is a nickname for moonshine liquor
hi6 - hernia
got it -- ty
lol Monkey. Thought maybe the school might have sent a letter
thanks for that clue, Bzzn
YW.
not to my knowledge, mom ... hahahahaha i never thoguht of that... maybe they did!
that is moonshine, Monkey? Learn something new every day
Clues please to re6/24 and re6/21? Thanks.
well it isn't something that you would talk about when you came home for the weekends that's for sure
ho5 + ie, is also a nickname for a slutty girl
re624 = sound again
ho5ie mama
re6.21 - tell
that is the one I had heard of Monkey
sorry re6.21 = put something on a shoe again
hmmmmmm re6,24... sound again hmmmmmmmmm thinking
TY Knight. Needed both of those.
I think that re6/24 is redundant.
I'm with you on the sound again, Monkey
ty, knight for that one. still working re6,24
re + e4.6
OK! got it, thanks Knight
Darn fine clue lil monkey. Perfect perfect.
that is just plain dumb, thanks you so much

hi 6: hi + preposition + everything (minus last letter)
how's it Mom?
doing fine, Jes, how are you?
what's a preposition?
feeling braindead. been so long since i worked a grid that i'm hopeless
Top right R is RE + he4/5
top right R .. not the bottom of foot
or hi + preposition + Mr. Gore
not that one b
RE8/50
Jes, I saw a movie ** the theatre
the ** is the preposition
that's the one ty
RE8/50 is re + ge6/24
ty ty ty
not me, mom. i got that word. it's jacq you're cluing :)
you're right Jes, sorry
<<< missed a lot of english lessons
preposition is a word that connects the subject to the object in a sentence -- in, of, on
maybe I need a drink
middle right O - not like butter
thanks Cybernan, I know what they are, just not the proper definition
*shares her mango juice with Mom*

who knew BMX racing was part of the Plymics..
those guys are really daredevils.
I didn't know that. I've watched more lightweight boxing than ever before in my life though.
ackkkkkkkkkk
I have managed not to see boxing. not my thing.
29 to go and totally stuck
I'm not sure how I have gotten stuck watching it then! Love the track and field bits. The dicus throw was mesmerizing.
i'm off. bf just got home. have a good night, all
night, jes.
Not sure if I can help, but I can look to see if I can help clue, jac. If you need it.
I missed the discus and I was sad about it. The american woman who won is very personable, and a good advertisement for the sport.
I have to go to sleep very early so I miss a lot of the stuff....
it's a new brain i need
Bye Jesd.
and fireworks!!
She had the greatest hop and throw.
Congrats, littlebit.
thanks bethaney
I really love the track and field, Usain Bolt is incredible.
wtg littlebit
a little too showy, but hey he's so fast...
thanks jac
off to check email
I haven't seen too much of the track and field. It does come on very late. That's why I'm watching so much lightweight boxing. It's what is on!
I saw a lot of beach volleyball for the same reason, enough to be sick of it.
haha! I so relate.
help with el 5,12 please.
Ok, this is stupid. these news guys are out in the hurricane. We know its windy, they dont need to get all wet etc...
I never understand that Red....
So true. But it doesn't have teh same excitement if they are not drenched!
When you're in it Bethany, there is plenty excitement!
Im waiting for one of those kinda people to get taken out by some debris blowing... see if they do it then!
I need to go out and take some photos.
I'm kidding. I'm just thinking about how the news stations want to have the most exciting broadcast even if it means losing a couple of news casters to the storm.
did you see thast guy who was parasailing or something in it?!?! Can he say idiot?
Ratings, bah.
Slammed right into a cement wall.
its funny here in FL, people do really recommend to you their favorite weather man...its odd
meh... natural selection that... at its finest and most natural no less..
I heard about it.
its not a bad storm but enough to get people on edge. I am very nervous.
Hope you stay safe. Being in the midst of a storm is nerve racking.
so far I have electricity. My only real worry is getting to work without becoming a patient.
Good luck. I grew up in Oklahoma. We never had big storms, just tornadoes. Not as big as hurricanes and much quicker to pass.
So it was intense, but there wasn't much of a waiting game.
this storm is apparently slow, we have had a few tornados today, but not like the wild ones in Oklahoma!
It does feel like I have heard lots of news about Fay so far. It seems very slow thus far. Stay safe. And I hope you keep your electricity on throughout and don't become a patient. ;)
help for ch 6,33?
beth...you write one of these to pay a bill...alt spelling
british spelling for cash or ch5?
duh! thanks k21 and dan.

hi lb
dawg!!!
the fo5s build off the fo4/7 each uses a different vowel at the end
ther are no rh words
re 6/21 please
ty scribe. saves me fruitlessly searching for them.
ch 6 is british word for something you write out to pay bills and includes the high point tile
fo 4 7 above?
ch7 builds off the ch6 - just add a consonant
Jescer you're the best! thanks
i dont get the fo words still sorry.
the fo4/ 7= aluminium fo*
thanks jescer... got them!
my mistake-first fo5/16 is fo4/7 plus a vowel;
well dont get the build from the fo word.
hi, all
the 2nd fo5/16 is like portfo***
Well im off Have a wonderful day
ciao, herin
I just won the gold medal in the balance beam! I wanted to share the news with you!
i must be blind. i see the aluminum word ending and only one vowel is next to it unused. that one doesnt work. so what am i missing?
8-), scrabs
it wont take folic. as in folic acid. strange.
you writing from Bejing.. or in front of your house
Go to the right, mkg.
Hi all! Guess what? I am joking about the gold medal stuff.
too frustrated with this grid. i am leaving. have 34 left but this is not worth it.
my additonal chat explained that I'd made a mistake
the 2nd fo5/16 is like a portfo***

hey, jilli!
Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
LOL, jilli
fo5> the first one?
back to the grindstone. I've still got 14 to go
they're the last ta4/4 and the ta 5/10
we promise not to throw any fish jilli
fo 5/16: fall fo***ge in Vermont is beautiful harpjane.
back soon
hello all you dear helpers (I hope)
thanks, got all the f's
ta 4 - Little Man Ta** (movie)
hmf, I come, tyger goes
ta 4/4 is a tall ta** is an untrue story and ta 5/10 is ta 4/4 plus a hook letter jillibus.
ta 4 and 5 combo - ta 4 - a story, sometimes a tall one... add consonant for the 5
sorry, kje, no idea about that movie :(
ta - ta**r tots - kids potato food
sorry kje, misled you -- not the last ta4/4, but you gave me the one I needed plus the dreaded fish
firewords -- thanks!
it's beef tonight jilli - rib eye!
woohoo jlli!!!!
Congratulations jillibus on your fireworks! Way to go
oh, PRICELESS video, kje! Thank you! Appropriate, too, these O;ympic days, lol!
glad you enjoyed it
Hello kje! How are you doing? I missed your entrance
I snuck in - no grand entrances tonight - bad hair day - LOL
I have that almost every day kje! Hair does NOTHING
it is raining here... so mine is curling in funny ways
Wish hair would stay in perfect place like Mr. Clinton
Actually, it IS beef tonight -- teeny filet on the BBQ, baked sweet potato, fresh local scarlet runner beans, and flosey's recipe of tomatoes soaked in flaxseed oil with garlic and basil. Scuse me while I go and finish cooking it :)
wowo, never heard anyone ask for clinton hair before, especially not a woman : )
sounds wonderful jilli - bon appetit!
back around fliptime -- thanks for everything!
Bye jillibus!I hope you enjoy dinner! It sounds yummy
I wanted to stay away for the flip, but am already fighting the eyelids
wish I had some cake
back. still need te5/12 & te6/21, pretty please?
hey, kje
I do not have any cake,but I have some yummy Lindt chocolate bars kje.I have orange,toffee & raspberry
te + anagram of feline
then add consonant for the 5
I love orange and chocolate, is it dark chocolate?
te 5/12 is te plus anagram for feline & a te6/21 is te 5/12 word plus consonant tygerbryght.
kje, my brain is *fried*. I need easy clues tonite
te + *ups of *ea would be nice with sug*r
No, I do not like dark chocolate kje. Lindt store had a great sale:10 chocolate bars for only twelve dollars
some people use mi*k but I think that is gross
I finally figured it out. thx, guys
wow, that is amazing price mnver, but I like the dark stuff, darker the better - they have a great 85%
t5/12 is te plus New England state abbreviation plus vowel and te 6/21 is te 5/12 plus the twelfth letter.
I lurve dark choc, but anything richer than 60% isn't mmm chewy enough for me
I have been dog-sitting my S-I-L's dog and I love him!
love it with a cup of good coffee
what is it min?
I am not a dog person, but this dog is great! I do not want to send him back. Took him to Vermont with me
I'm *very* fond of the Lindor dark chocolate truffles. they're not as good as homemade, of course, but far above the average bought candy
LOL, min. sounds like you may wind up getting yourself a dog like that one
He is a Cavelier King Charles Spaniel and 6 months old
and not as high in calories, I think :P
they're quite nice little dogs, min. I can understand it
OK, just dozed off for a sec - no flip for me tonight - happy hunting tyger... and kiss the doggie for me min - later!
later, kje
I would LOVE to get a dog like it, but they are 1,200 dollars. Unfortunately a little expensive for me now.
Goodbye kje! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
have your SIL ask the breeder about rescues, min
sometimes breeders have to take dogs back from buyers. that might be a way for you to get one at little or no expense
done, thank you for the help!
My husband has been wanting a dog for the past ten years and I have always said no. Now he will really be asking to get one after this dog leaves.But he wants a big dog though like a German Shepard. Not for me!
Congratulations harpjane on fireworks! Good for you
so tell him it's a little dog or no dog ;)
say you want a CKC for your birthday, or something :)
I think that a Cavelier King Charles Spaniel is a good compromise.There are dogs that are smaller & other dogs that are bigger.I guess we willl see what we get
I'd love to chat, but I'm exhausted & have a headache, but I was determined to finish this grid. now I've got it, and I want to go do something for the headache, at very least
g'nite
Bye tygerbryght. I hope your headache goes away!
So is it just me,myself & I here in the chog right now?
Since all by myself, I am going to go walk the dog now
