1:33 am

ruru's squat lolol

1:33 am

both my pubes keep me in dube io often enough, Gwen.

ah, yes, dubes are legal in NL, aren't they?

1:34 am

but to you dube the pubes often enough?

1:34 am

hm, not sure what meaning of dube that is, let me check.

1:35 am

do you.. that is

where i come from it's a joint (a ciggy fulla weed)

1:35 am

2 BTs -- the lower Es

1:35 am

i have so lost the plot with this line of chat lol

1:35 am

that is a doob

dube = doobie = cannabis cigaret

same here kiwi

1:36 am

the middle e is the stuff that goes into a duvet jill - the R

1:36 am

as in doobie brothers

1:36 am

book i thought dubes were shoes? lol

1:36 am

ah, well, those I don't use on my pubes, lol, nor do I smoke them myself. Never have. There are kind of legal here. Soft drugs are tolerated, which means you can have a small amount on you for your own use. Selling it or having more is illegal.

being slang there is no such thing as "correct" spelling

1:36 am

no its not sorry

1:36 am

oh, for shame! one of them was the volcano!

1:36 am

its the volcano

1:36 am

I only have 110 left. But breakfast is done, hubby has had my SMS from my new cell, and some other small chores are history.

SMS ?

2:17 am

thanks Dee

2:17 am

2:18 am

ok, it is short for: 'Short Message Service’ and it means you send a text message to a cell phone.

cool... don't have texting on my phone

2:19 am

what do you folks call that? Texting?

texting is phrase I know, but SMS may be common here, too

2:20 am

you can also MMS which is when you send a photo and is called Multi Media Service

2:20 am

Morning everyone :-)

2:20 am

it is so weird, I mean, it comes straight from the english. But then it isn't used in english. Small wonder I get confused, lolll

I am not very educated on that terminology

2:21 am

morning Katie. Yup, exactly.

2:21 am

it has become a verb in dutch.

here, also

how have you been feeling sprite?

2:23 am

morning katie

yes, hi katie....

2:23 am

not to great lately, Dee. But trying now to get some structure in my days and I have to admit it helps some. We will see what happens once I have done it for a week or longer. Thanks for asking :)

2:23 am

not *too great

yw; I think of you often and hope your days get better and better; you have persevered thru many hurdles, and we are all proud of you

2:25 am

now you got me all teary, lol... thanks Dee. That is really great to know. Thanks for thinking of me, I know that that helps too.

earlier in chat I shared about daughter being stressed out; and she is an extremely strong individual. For sure!!!

2:26 am

and fireworks

when she calls me crying, I never know how I can help her. She's 2.5 hours away, and I hate that I'm not closer.

2:26 am

wtg Hugs

I know God uses these challenges for growth, but they sure are not fun. Congrats hug!!!

2:27 am

Dee, it is often the stronger ones that stress out eventually, because they push through for way too long. I am sure your listening to her and just being there will help her. And she can feel you love her and that is even more important. *hug* to both of you.

well off to check emails then find my pillow; hugs to you; hope your day/ eve is fantastic!!!

2:28 am

bye Dee, have a great evening, a restful night and a grand day :)

I sure hope you are correct sprite. She has a micromanaging boss, and because of dealing with him, she has lost interest in a job she used to love... makes me sad

2:28 am

goodnite Dee and thanks for all your help

I keep thinking that God is using this to push her in another direction, but she may not get a job she has interviewed for and really wants, so I am confused. YW HUG!!

2:29 am

congrats Hugs

2:29 am

thanks Katie

I think it is easier to face a hurdle myself, than watch my child struggle...

2:29 am

that takes a lot of trust, Dee. And trust is not easy when you are stressed out, I know. I will pray she will find a new place easily and that it will bring her joy.

ty ty... exactly my desire

2:30 am

oh god yes, Dee. Seeing your kids struggle sucks big time.

2:30 am

goodnight volley please donot worry all is in hand as you deeply know all things will pan out as they are meant to be patient and watch her step through her hurdles and you will glow with pride please take care and try not to worry too much

2:30 am

well, I'm off as well. goodnite/day everyone

and as a mom, it's hard to know how long to commiserate before saying, it is time to suck it up and move forward

2:31 am

night volley & hugs

2:31 am

night Hugs!

ty lore!!! love you guys bunches & *poof*****

2:31 am

she will tell you herself, Dee. She is a strong one, so just be there for her, she will find her way.

2:31 am

I've been ill with stress in the past and just having your mom to talk to means the world, honestly you are doing her good just being there for here

2:31 am

*her

2:32 am

I second that, Katie. It is something I miss dearly in life and I plan on being there for my kids whatever happens.

2:34 am

sprite you must be a miraculous mother and with all your ailments you still shine through what better example could you be to your children than that wow truely amazing no tears either ok get used to taking not just giving hugs Princess

2:34 am

well said loredana

2:35 am

thanks... sorry, that does make me cry, lol, but it is great you telling me. *hugs*

2:36 am

its all true katie this woman she amazes me!!! so much grace and love and so diplomatic all at the same time.

2:37 am

diplomatic?? Me??? *blushes vehemently*

2:37 am

I have found that we all seem to have a lot in common in here this is one of my favourite "medicine rooms" sprite yes??

2:37 am

hello everyone - gosh i'm getting all teary with all this niceness! What great group therapy this is.

2:38 am

me & my headache are going back to bed, talk care everyone, see you later

2:38 am

diplomatic yes and I have admired the way you have been standing up for yourself in the last few months

2:38 am

that is so true, lobo. Amazing community this is.

2:38 am

sleep well, Katie, and I hope your head will be better soon

2:38 am

hi sandyloo

2:39 am

katie see you back here real soon take care

2:39 am

It has its downside- I should be clearing out the sea container- not wasting time doing this.

2:39 am

Hi sprite - are you not well?

2:39 am

this is group therapy with no boundaries sandy and we always rally around those who nbeed to hear some positive comments and they are all true

2:40 am

thanks lobo! Guess I had to, it was about time. It is all about boundaries, and I am learning. Slowwwwwly, but still, lol.

2:40 am

no repsonse from papa?

2:40 am

yes lore I think it's great for that.

2:40 am

not really, sandy, haven't been for many years now. But never giving up. Hm, sea container... how nice to have babble to put it off a little longer, grin.

2:41 am

you had better go do your chores then you can relax and join us in babbleland we will save a seat for you lolk

2:41 am

nope, not a word from my father. Didn't really expect it either. Just would love to know if he will keep silent, uncertainty is not easy to handle.

2:42 am

We keep all our junk in it and my daughter Beccy is going torent out her house and she needs room for her junk (When will it end)

2:42 am

do not be uncertain sprite I would think he probably cannot handle the truth your part is done you are free from those ties. yay for sprite

2:42 am

time to really clean out and throw or give away stuff, I think, sandy :)

2:43 am

I have found lots of things i forgot i had but i am very dusty.

2:43 am

know exactly what your saying sandy .... sorry to tell you it never ends lol

2:44 am

you are probably right, lobo, and for the most part I can keep my mind clear about it. It just takes some time to get the emotional hubbub calmed down again.

2:44 am

watchout for the redbacks... hopefully you dont disturb anything else

2:45 am

lol lore- They wouldn't dare bite me!

2:45 am

Acually it is very insect and weather proof

2:45 am

lol sandy!

2:47 am

sprite an exercise given to me was ..imagine you are on the ocean deep sea fishing standing at the end of the boat... send all your worries and problems into the sea which I did immediately visualising of all things sea containers bobbing around in the ocean i filled them up with all my woes and then smiled as they quickly bobbed off out of site. It works everytime for me as long as i remember the fishing! lol

2:48 am

ooops sight

2:48 am

hm, good one, will try it out, lobo!

2:48 am

good one lore- another thing i always say to my kids is "remember pollyanna" she could always see the best side of things

2:48 am

its all in the way you look at things

2:49 am

so true, sandy. One of my handicaps is that I always can see almost all sides of things, and that paralyses me. I should learn to focus on the positive side and then pick ONE, lol.

2:50 am

have to stay positive problem is world is full of negativity so need to be a "Pollyanna"

2:51 am

Sprite it is very true I always block the negatives or I would go mad - especially with all of Nicky's health problems

2:52 am

you are a wise woman, sandyloo!

2:52 am

We are all wise in our own ways and group wiseness is a good thing-it

2:53 am

its a good thing

2:53 am

it is. There is power in sharing power and good medicine, for sure.

2:53 am

But wiseness when it comes to the babble words escapes me all too often

2:55 am

lol, that is also something we all share

2:55 am

Oh by the way - I have finally got the fireworks a couple of times with Nicky's help (not the biblical kind either!)

2:55 am

well done sandy and Nicky!

2:56 am

well done sandy

2:57 am

LOL not today tho" have 66 left

2:57 am

took me ages to find the be4/8!

2:57 am

today's is not so tough though, sandy.

2:57 am

haven't got that one yet

2:57 am

might be possible to finish, even though it is not so small. Yesterday's was wicked.

2:58 am

Your brain is probably HUGE compared to mine sprite!!

2:58 am

We got there yesterday much to our delight

2:58 am

my brain has stared at yesterday's grid without seeing words for a lonnnng time, lol

2:59 am

sprite is very modest sandy english is not her 1st language yet she has an english vocabulary far beyond most of us

2:59 am

so, if you made it with yesterday's, you did great. It was an evil one.

2:59 am

now don't make me blush, lobo! I learn something new in babble every day!

3:00 am

Wow Sprite I am even more impressed

3:00 am

Dr God doesnt make evil grids sprite only good grids lol

3:00 am

OK back to the sea container I'll let Nick add a few now

3:00 am

lol lobo, he doesn't do either. He lets the computer make them.

3:01 am

bye sandy, nice chatting with you! And hi Nickey

3:01 am

And Sandy she is an author of two books I aa aware of

3:01 am

sorry, *Nicky

3:01 am

hi sprite

3:01 am

am going to translate again from today on, lobo. A little bit at a time.

3:02 am

so there sprite you heard that expression "put that in your pipe and smoke it"? goes for you

3:02 am

evidently there's two no4's after the no6,,,I have the writing slip...a clue for the other?

3:02 am

lol, I know the expression. In dutch it is: you can put that into your pocket.

3:02 am

I truely believe that is your main outlet Sprite your writing

3:03 am

in the pocket much more polite i think

3:03 am

PAV, rhymes with a very nice chatting Babbler L***

3:03 am

I think it is, lobo. Haven't be4 able to write for a long time, but it seems to be coming back to me now.

3:04 am

we have a very rude variety as well, lobo, but I will not post that one ;)

3:04 am

better not sprite lol

3:05 am

thks again Sprite..

3:05 am

yvw PAV

3:06 am

3:06 am

3:07 am

3:07 am

oh here comes a big lick excuse dribbles

3:08 am

*scratches lobo behind the fuzzy ears*

3:12 am

3:17 am

*says a profound OUCH at the vid* That cannot be healthy. I hope this lady will keep her beautiful smile later in life...

3:18 am

its nik here now-how come you guys get fireworks so soon

3:18 am

too good

3:18 am

not really soon, Nick, I have been playing for a while now :)

3:19 am

oh-so you get to know words

3:20 am

yes, and lots of words you will only find in this game, so once you remember them, playing goes faster. You are finding words, your mother told us, that is great!

3:21 am

I have to go, have fun with the grid, Nick!

3:21 am

well its only because i type anything and everything..but in the beginning how did you find all the words

3:22 am

oh ok-i have to go to

3:22 am

when I started playing, there weren't even lists to help. We helped eachother in chat :)

3:22 am

bye! *poof*

3:23 am

ok..thats really nice the way ppl help eachother here

3:23 am

its a really friendly site-not found often

3:28 am

***Lori tiptoes in quietly so she doesn't wake anybody up***

3:29 am

*zooms up behind Lori with big pillow* **whap* :)

3:30 am

Thump!

3:30 am

Da4 - have to change my icon.

3:30 am

lolol, so much for quiet.... G'd morning FM, Haz. Jeesh :p

3:30 am

LOL!! such timing, Hi Haz

3:31 am

WE're justhappy to see you, thats all.

3:31 am

Tag team rasslin'. Lovely.

3:31 am

*sits down quietly and waits for Haz to get back*

3:31 am

Good morning!

3:32 am

**revels in the knowlege that FM cannot sit quietly for more than 5 seconds***

3:32 am

I'll have to be more imaginative later on for BJ's day but Spangle will have to do for now.

3:32 am

Ah you know me so well! Better sized grid today, I felt cheated eysterday.

3:33 am

Sooooo, what's the topic for today's discussion?

3:33 am

What I want to know is - who works out all these opening and closing Olympic ceremonies?

3:33 am

Are they able to direct rehearsals from a helicopter?

3:33 am

I'm with you FM, yesterday's was a wee tad brief.

3:33 am

How do they know what it's going to look like?

3:34 am

What do they do with their time the other three and a half years?

3:34 am

existentialism?

3:34 am

Discuss.

3:34 am

I didn't watch them, but it's an amazing feat of coordinating, for sure.

3:34 am

CGI probably

3:34 am

The chap that designed the ceremonies is a film maker I think

3:35 am

A cast of thousands, more fireworks than you could imagine and all sorts of fancy things going on.

3:35 am

We were up home at my sister's lake retreat for the opening ceremonies, so we didn't see them, apparently they were something else.

3:36 am

Running Tiger, Crouching Dragon - well something like that, huge epic cast type productions

3:36 am

Each country tries to outdo the previous one with ceremonies. Mucho $$$

3:36 am

I watched a rerun of the opening and part of the closing ceremony. Just amazing. I hope London doesn't even try to compete.

3:37 am

The fact that you need commentators to tell you what's supposed to be going on says it all.

3:38 am

Although - just think, FMitch - if they're looking for volunteers to take part in dances wearing Greek tunics.... you're nearly on the spot!

3:38 am

I think I'll write to Lord Coe to make that suggestion. Inclusivity and all that.

3:38 am

I used to be fanatical about Olympic, with time I've lost my love for it, and it's replaced by ambivalence.

3:38 am

Good morning one and all - bit of a dull day here after the nicer weekend

3:38 am

Somehow I managed to miss the closing ceremony, will have to find highlights on iPlayer Ummm thanks Haz but I'm washing my hair that day ;)

3:39 am

Good morning Kazzer. Would you take part in the opening ceremony for the Olympics in 2012?

3:39 am

heh heh heh FM already has her attire, think of the savings......

3:39 am

Hi Kazz, well it is August bank holiday so am just glad it's not raining YET

3:39 am

FMitch is gathering a Babble team to represent word sport.

3:40 am

lol Haz

3:40 am

G'd morning Kazz

3:40 am

FMitch is showing true Olympic spirit. We salute her!

3:40 am

Yes, but she'd never pass the drug testing..... :p

3:41 am

Oh heck Just realised I've arranged to meet a neighbour round at B's place at 10.15 and I'm not even dressed. I hate leaving Haz when she is in organising mode, it never turns out well for me!

3:41 am

yes I would - dont care doing what but I'd look like a burke with the rest of them My husband has just posted a terrible picture of me after our walk on Saturday - its at the top of the ridge having got there from the bottom by the reservoir near Pen y Fan and if he can do that then I can do mad stuff in front of the world

3:41 am

We just need a chemist to work out the right combination.

3:42 am

That's okay, FMitch, we'll get a rough plan drafted and let you know what you're doing nearer the time.

3:42 am

Your real life is really interfering with MY Babble experience FM.......

3:42 am

bum bum bum and thrice bum *sobs and picks up pillow half hartedly*

3:43 am

hartedly, like Bambi. :p

3:43 am

Don't tell me FMitch is going to the dark side and joining the anal obsessives?

3:43 am

Back as soon as I can be *zoooooooooom*

3:43 am

See ya' soon FM.

3:43 am

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! it's SUPERMITCH!

3:43 am

Bye FMitch.

3:44 am

Or is it Ermentrude? (sp?)

3:45 am

Ermintrude. If we can have Annie as a flying nun, I don't see why we can't have a flying cow.

3:45 am

Udderly delightful!

3:46 am

Just be sure to keep umbrellas up.

3:46 am

i have changed my icon to mad bad picture

3:47 am

You're still standing, though. That has to count for something.

3:48 am

Nice pic. You're upright, so that's a good thing. :)

3:48 am

that true but I can just about move today - worst thing was that was the start - there was another 6.5 miles afer that and 2 mountains

3:48 am

You're a marvel!

3:49 am

You can just see the first one - Corn Du in the background

3:49 am

I salute you. If I can't drive such a distance, then it's not happening. :)

3:50 am

And you're carrying stuff as well. No wee Sherpas to help you out?

3:50 am

We are going up Snowdon next week - I will be away from Babble for about 9 days

3:50 am

No internet signal from Snowdon, I suppose?

3:51 am

You'll cope, Kazzer. The first day or two are hard, you settle into no babble after a while and then you can start to look forward to what's in store.

3:51 am

Hope you have a good time Kazz

3:51 am

Hubby helped by holding the top of my ruck sack whilst i was scrabbling up the rocks to stop me falling off! (I use scrabbling delerately as it was too undignifed to call it scrambling!)

3:52 am

Do you stay under a roof or under canvas when you're away?

3:52 am

Internet on mobile - hmm there's an idea - no hubby pays the bill and might have heart failure

3:53 am

No, don't give him heart failure. Especially if he helps you with your rucksack.

3:53 am

We stay on a small privately owned caravan and chalet park Good plumbing no kids

3:54 am

Paradise.

3:54 am

Nice talking to all but I have to go to do some washing and stuff but will be back later. Love to you all

3:54 am

Bye Kazzer. Give yourself a rub with Deep Heat and you'll be a new woman. Bye for now!

3:57 am

Later Kazz, take care.

4:03 am

All this time just to grey the bottom 5 tiles. Ack

4:05 am

You're very focussed.

4:06 am

Yes yes, that's me, starting a whole new ay of life. No. Really.

4:07 am

Have you been going to self-improvement classes or something?

4:07 am

You'll not change out of recognition, though? You'll not start emoting?

4:08 am

One of the voices told me I need to change.

4:08 am

oh sugar!! sorry andree! I really am. I will not partake in babble next time I am doomed to sleep on tablets

4:30 am

we will take you tablets or no mrp

awww, thanks andree! (((hugs)))

infern?? are you still here? why poor you?

4:32 am

I have moved to a big house in Belrose I share with my daughter and her 2 kids and what I said was we have a lovely pool and you must bring the kids to swim in the summer

oh how delightful andree! and lucky you! would love to live in that area

my net is le crap

was it difficult to find a place? it is really tough as hell around here

and the kids would love to do that too! they would have a wonderful time pooling around with you!

4:33 am

just realised my name is in the grid today

NO that was poor MR PRES

it is too! LOL

NO that was poor MR PRES

arrr the weather is setting in and im about to crack the sads

March of the Penguins is on tonight... have the kids up and watching it.

Melbourne is bloody freezing at the moment! poor infern

4:35 am

that is the most amazing movie and how cold must the photographers been?

Yes it is but im at my b.fs parents house helping out his mum from her shoulder reconstruction for the week

I am seriously thinking of moving out of the area... how much for a 4 bedroom in your area Andree (rent)

hope her surgery went well infern... it is a rather long recovery I hear

4:39 am

we are paying $740 4 beds, 3 bath, and all the normal stuff plus a rumpus room for the kids and a pool so shared between 2 of us is affordable

that is really good then andree! we would have to pay the same around here.

There is a lovely house coming up in January down the road... it is $800 a week, so would have to work too so we could afford it without too much stress, but is still much cheaper than a mortgage! Isn't that sad.... I don't know how our kids will afford to move out

4:42 am

we were originally looking in killarney heights or forestville but ther is about $200 a week difference so we decided the extra 7 minutes travelling was worth it

4:43 am

where does lickety travel to each day

4:44 am

you might be better looking in this area

4:45 am

hello everyone-interesting talk about rent-my daughter is moving out of her house and is going to rent it out and move in with her grandma because it is too expensive for her to stay

4:46 am

her mortguage is gone up so much

indeed andree... lickety is in north ryde... but he says it is a horrible place to live

4:46 am

he is probably right mrp

hi sandy... it has gone up way way too much... a mortgage for us would be about $1400 a week

funny enough, his family lived there all his life and when I met him, he was living there LOL

4:47 am

My goodness! - I am so glad I am out of the rental & mortgage market, the costs are sooo high! hello MR, Andree & Sandy

4:48 am

sandy, my sons who both earn a lot both rent, say its makes more sense

4:48 am

hi lynxxx

it does make more sense... it is half the price to rent

4:49 am

she is an architect and earns good money but is hoping for capital gains

4:49 am

lynxxx if you are out of both markets, are you living in your car??

nah, she has paid her house off

4:50 am

1 of my sons is building a house and it will be ready about next march then he will have the huge morgage to pay off

4:50 am

lol I never thought of that

4:51 am

yeah, she's old, lol

4:51 am

late late late flip hi all hiya mrp!!

4:51 am

hi Dart

hello dart

4:51 am

hi dart

$800 a week get out of NSW now that is bad

4:51 am

hi Nono

4:52 am

hi llynxxx nono andre

4:52 am

The market in Perth has been fantastic for us because we have two properties which have both gone through the roof but I feel so sorry for the kids

goodness rents are certainly high in Australia!

4:52 am

NSW has always been higher in house prices & rents though

4:53 am

that is not high nono, I have 1 son paying $1250 and 1 paying $1150 per week

barely afford $500 a month on rent on benifits

you all are talking amounts per week that we would pay per month

I would like this one http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-b in/rsearch?a=o&id=402952759&f=0&p=10&t =ren&ty=&fmt=&header=&cc=&c=25154941&s =nsw&snf=rbs&tm=1219657720

4:53 am

Perth is now the highest for property values

sorry, bloody too long

4:53 am

it is ridiculous

That is bull crap ANdree. Seriosly

4:54 am

the kids will have to wait until we die

rents and mortgages are ridiculous

4:54 am

andree is that the cost of their mortguages?

that is rent sandy

We pay $1286 a month and we both can barely afford the rent

4:55 am

it is getting out of control

we would get a dog box for that in sydney infern

4:56 am

I'm done...and I must be up in 4 hours...night all!

4:56 am

Sydney rents have always been high- but what a great place to live-I love Sydney

4:56 am

no their rent, its the areas they choose to live and if you want to live in the eastern suburbs its about $5000 a week for a decent house

I wouldn't live in Sydney for quids these days

night pav

4:56 am

bye pav

well done PAV!! now go and get some sleep!

4:56 am

nite Pav

NIght Pav. Hi anyone i missed as i bounce in and out of the realm of the net

4:57 am

I have to cook dinner now - I would rather do this

4:57 am

I LOVE SYDNEY

4:57 am

hi herin

the pay rate is equivelant to living expenses though... Sydney has a much higher pay rate than other cities.

is there a minimum pay rate there mrp?

4:58 am

My daughter used to live there I LOVE IT especially the walk along the cliffs from Bronte to Bondi after breakfast

4:59 am

most of us who rent look for what we can afford so it all works out in the end

Didn't say i don't like Sydney I just wouldn't live there

7:15 am

yw and hi, kje

7:16 am

hi annie

7:17 am

ty annie..im trying to resist the urge to open the list:/

7:17 am

I have a friend named annie in nyc - she makes jewelry

7:17 am

crossy, your clue gave it to me...no list and thanks

7:19 am

have no blank tiles except that center o

7:20 am

kje, I have an O, E, E, U blank....do not do well with words that start with a vowel

Hi. I hope i can have 10 min of chat before bed and before i get booted

7:21 am

7:21 am

7:21 am

Word Whomp too

7:21 am

hi herin!

waves

7:22 am

hi herin, how are you?

about to go to bed

you?

7:22 am

about to go to work... wish I was herin

7:23 am

I either have a sprained muscle in my side or I am getting shingles....

No you don't been looking after b.fs mum not in my house going slowly nuts

:( any

7:24 am

oh drats annie - hopefully not shingles

opps :( annie

7:24 am

have you had them before?

7:24 am

annie..if you get shingles,you will know it,trust me

7:25 am

kje, I had the vaccine for shingle the beginning of July but I hugged my neighbor who just had contracted shingles 3 weeks ago...can it be shingles...I moved a stove yesterday so I am not sure but I am terrified of shingles...

7:25 am

you do not catch shingles from people with shingles

7:26 am

it is reactivation of the dormant virus that causes chicken pox and never leaves your body

7:26 am

it was probably the stove

7:26 am

my fahter in-law just finished a bout of shingle..was nasty and it is in most cases a diet deficency not communicable

7:26 am

what the heck are you doing moving a stove!

7:26 am

most cases

7:26 am

kje, I thought you could because she had not crusted over and I did not know she had shingles...

icky. Must not get shingles

7:26 am

it is not a diet deficiency

7:26 am

what the doc told him

7:27 am

but then again ive never had them,so who am i to judge

7:27 am

no, annie - not communicable that way... rare cases of shingles causing chicken pox in those who have never had it, but not shingles.... shingles is reactivated chicken pox virus (called tha varicella-zoster virus)

KJe you are full of interesting info

KJe you are full of interesting info

7:28 am

kje, you have really reassured me...thank you so very much from a 74 year old lady who moves stoves

7:28 am

we learn something new every day;/

Annie my dear you really shouldn't do that at any age

7:29 am

stop moving stoves... and do some stretching today so it doesn't tighten up too much : )

7:29 am

74 and your moving stoves?

7:29 am

morning all

7:29 am

7:29 am

Hi ANgel

7:29 am

hi angel!

7:30 am

7:30 am

okay, kje, THANK YOU

mmmmmm warm bed is calling me soon

7:31 am

actually its one of those fold out couches from the 70,s that weigh in at about 300 pounds..almost better to burn it where it sits;/

7:31 am

my usual disclaimer... if it worsens or changes, fever, belly pain, pain with urine, etc - you should talk with your doc : )

7:32 am

I need the middle O!!!!!

I like those couches. Is it brown Cross?

7:33 am

7:33 am

I am meeting a childhood friend Thursday in New York for lunch so I have to be okay....really want to see her

i think "vader" should be accepted....heh

8:03 am

i'm sleeeeepy

8:04 am

i hear ya, hurshy!

8:04 am

what you mean to say, eva, is: "name that proper noun! luke's father and nemesis"

8:04 am

yes, what you said! but youre so good at it. :)

8:05 am

and then i say "vader"

8:05 am

8:05 am

8:05 am

dante!

8:05 am

8:06 am

lets really get this going..ill break out my dirty limerics;)

8:06 am

8:06 am

8:06 am

danno!

8:07 am

ding ding ding!

8:07 am

8:07 am

8:08 am

you are totally getting the hang of it

8:08 am

and she gets what behind door number 3!

8:08 am

id play around with miss spelling, but apparently shes actually a real word!

8:09 am

what we get is the ding ding ding, crossy

8:09 am

and the satisfaction of the non-words we find actually counting for something...heh

8:09 am

a five year supply of horse shoes!

8:09 am

exactly, eva

8:10 am

but don't try red sock martinez, he counts

8:10 am

he' a Met hurshy!

8:10 am

oh, did they trade him? i hate baseball, so i didn't know.

8:11 am

heh, you knew more than i did!

8:11 am

a number of years ago

8:11 am

a NUMBER? it must be a small number because he was there when they won the world series, wasn't he?

8:12 am

no

8:12 am

he left the red sox winter 04/05

8:12 am

ok, i have to look this up now

8:13 am

i don't think so?

8:13 am

signed with the mets after the red sox won the world series in 04

8:13 am

yes, that is what wiki says, what avi said.

8:13 am

oh....i just remember shilling's bloody sock!

8:13 am

(mind you, i based my original knowledge on that jimmy fallon movie)

8:15 am

oh yeah...feverpitch?

8:15 am

yes

8:16 am

a truly amazing coincidence

8:16 am

??

8:17 am

that they were making that movie about the curse, and then the red sox won, and they were there, and it made the movie come out nice

8:18 am

I think they better make another movie this year...quick!

8:46 am

8:48 am

personal possessions...everything in a home.

8:51 am

good morning

8:52 am

note

8:52 am

sorry!!!

8:56 am

this week is going to be interesting. I have been summoned to my parents' house on Wednesday evening, for dinner and to do some estate planning.

8:57 am

your parents are wise angel, hope they don't start a feud

8:58 am

how many letters in the u words, please?

8:59 am

absolutely! I've already decided that they do not own anything I want badly enough to start a feud with my brothers over.

9:00 am

I thought my dad did a wonderful job when my grandmother died. He called me and my brothers to my grandmother's home and told us we were going to go through it and decide what we wanted to keep. He said if we argued over anything, the items argued over would just be sold. Not one word of discord resulted.

9:01 am

There is a UP6 harp

9:02 am

they are both up6.

9:02 am

Actually there are two UP6

9:02 am

2 x up6 24

9:02 am

and a ut

9:06 am

thanks

9:08 am

could i have a clue for the de8 pls?

9:10 am

cos ive tried the explosive action too many times..lol

9:10 am

de8 - usually clued as the beginning of the fifth book of the Old Testament.

9:10 am

Or, de, then run together an Aussie vehicle (short version) and shortened Pres Reagan.

9:10 am

aaah so it is..thx haz

9:11 am

You're welcome, rolin. Not at work today?

9:11 am

nope...bank holiday here...last one before xmas..*sigh*

9:12 am

but i cant complain really ..i get my summer hols in 4 weeks

9:12 am

I hate to tell you but our local department store has started putting out Christmas stuff.

9:12 am

Oh, where are you going on holiday?

9:13 am

australia for most of it..but breaking the trip back in kuala lumpar for 3 nights

9:13 am

xmas stuff..??...already??...*groan*..thats absurd...

9:13 am

Are you visiting friends and family?

9:14 am

Absolutely absurd, but they claim people have been ringing to ask when it's going out.

9:14 am

yup.. gonna be there for my mums 94th b.day...and see my son..bro..his family etc..catch up with friends..

9:14 am

That should be great. Your mum has certainly reached a venerable age.

9:15 am

she has indeed.. and has been invited to the mayoral dinner in recognition of her volunteer work

9:15 am

Oooh, Olympians just landing at Heathrow and going to hotel about 6 miles away from where I am - should I get my camera out and pretend to be paparatzzi?

9:15 am

Good for her! It's nice that she's getting recognition for what she's done, although she probably doesn't think it's anything special.

9:16 am

can you believe we're asked to sit and watch a plane land??..

9:16 am

A nice thought, FMitch. Have you got your PRESS sticker for your trilby?

9:16 am

no she doesnt..she sees it as her way to get out of the house and feel useful... she says shes starting to feel really old now..lol

9:16 am

How enormous a lens do you have, FM? Because if it's smaller than a Yule log, they'll never believe you're really papparazzi.

9:16 am

Dear Mother has just phoned BRB

9:17 am

Hello Vicuna!

9:17 am

(Just trying to get into the Christmas spirit with my Yule log reference. Since Haz is obviously gearing up already.)

9:17 am

You always used to be able to recognise crowds of Japanese tourists because their lenses preceded them.

9:17 am

Now it's all digital but they STILL take photos of everything.

9:17 am

vic..americans cant gear up for xmas yet can they...they have thanksgiving and halloween to sell to first dont they???

9:18 am

No need to get into any Christmas spirit yet. I will steadfastly ignore until the time is right.

9:18 am

Christmas? Did someone mention that it's time to start practicing Christmas music?

9:18 am

ugh...halloween...i hate that

9:18 am

harpjane....only if you wish to risk death...

9:18 am

Well, rolin, we USED to wait until after Thanksgiving, but I'm afraid that's all past.

9:18 am

I think preparation for Christmas should be a private matter until December 1.

9:19 am

Hear hear, Haz!

9:19 am

And I propose that we shouldn't talk about it - we should talk about FMitch instead.

9:20 am

nice idea haz but how do you think the christmas music gets LEARNED? lol

9:20 am

the best place to spend the lead up to and xmas itself is in a muslim country...lol..we did that a couple of years ago... tho the place we stayed thought they had to try wrapping some tinsel around a palm tree...lol

9:20 am

If i started December 1 it would be ready to play by Valentine's Day....

9:20 am

Right-oh. Let's see... DId you hear about how FM's been arrested for papparazzi-related activities?

9:21 am

Isn't it awful? And we're still wondering whether Ata is going to be allowed back into the country.

9:21 am

Or about her secret trip to Dubai to smuggle tinsel from their closely guarded tinsel-wells?

9:21 am

Those two are going to give babblers a bad name.

9:21 am

church musicians are, by necessity, a season ahead of the rest of the church

9:21 am

Who guards the tinsel wells?

9:22 am

Oh, Ata. Sheesh. She'll end up in Brazil for sure, if you people don't want her back, and we can't wait to get rid of her...

9:22 am

*sigh, this call could take a while ... ... :)*

9:22 am

Masked militia-men, of course.

9:22 am

Yes, that's fine, harpjane - by definition they're playing in church and not blasting innocent bystanders with chirpy jingles.

9:23 am

Poor FM. Don't worry, dear, we'll just keep gissipping about you until your return!

9:23 am

LOL

9:23 am

Silly me - who else would guard a tinsel well?

9:23 am

Presumably your practicing does not get broadcast over the malls' loudspeaker-systems, right, harpjane?

9:24 am

(Or gossipping, maybe. I'm not quite sure how to gissip.)

9:24 am

well, they just want you to remember what they think the important aspect is - the almighty monetary unit

9:24 am

Harpjane is getting tuned up, I fear.

9:24 am

Vicuna, this ISN'T an opportunity for you to sing.

9:25 am

gissiping is what woment do as they sip tea

9:26 am

A little more genteel than gossipping, perhaps, nDanLia? that sounds perfect for me. I'm so refined.

9:26 am

Actually I DO enjoy Halloween but I ahve been to many christmas rehearsals during Halloween season. Lots of memories of someone singing Ave Maria while dressed as a pumpkin....

9:26 am

Hello everybody.

9:26 am

(And speaking of genteel refinement, *blows Haz a big raspberry*)

9:27 am

I never thought anything else or you, Vicuna. When I picture you, I see a little finger poised delicately above the teacup.

9:27 am

Hello, lizmac.

9:27 am

Hello lizmaac (valiantly towelling down and revising opinions of Vicuna)

9:27 am

hi liz

9:28 am

But Haz, my little finger WAS poised above the teacup as I blew that raspberry!

9:28 am

Which explains why the raspberry was tea flavoured.

9:28 am

well, you'll have to give that to her haz

9:29 am

So, is sunny Stranraer living up to its name today, liz?

9:29 am

Anyway, I was doing it out of tenderhearted generosity towards you, Haz. It was either that or sing.

9:29 am

I got the better part of the deal then.

9:29 am

Better a hundred raspberries than a song from Vicuna.

9:30 am

... and I'm back :)

9:30 am

Hurray!

9:30 am

Yay! FM's back! Maybe Haz will abuse her for a while, instead of me!

9:31 am

Keep your souwester on, FMitch, Vicuna is blowing refined raspberries.

9:31 am

At the moment, Haz, but Pisa's beckoning, so I'm less weather obsessed than usual today. Off on Wednesday, yipeeeee!

9:31 am

And it's never abuse, Vicuna, it's just gentle reality checking.

9:31 am

Only at those who are so low and gauche as to insult me, of course. I'm sure FM is perfectly safe.

9:31 am

Ah - liz will soon be eating Pizza in Pisa. All those nice Italian men as well....

9:32 am

Indeed.

9:32 am

Ah, where's Ata when the conversation turns to Italian men? She's bound to be around here somewhere!

9:32 am

da5?

9:33 am

I know. Usually she can be relied upon to turn up at regular intervals but this trip is ruining her babble smugness.

9:33 am

nm

9:33 am

Is'nt it just Haz!! She comes and goes willy nilly now!

9:34 am

thats what those italian men can be harp

9:34 am

lol nDan

9:34 am

I know. It's all a bit discombobulating.

9:34 am

du6? this time i really mean it?

9:34 am

Poor Ata. She'll have to fall back on kitten smugness and art smugness.

9:34 am

either one?

9:35 am

You mean we'll be treated to pictures of cute kittens to try to make us think favourably of her again?

9:35 am

Spanish for a chaperone = du6/24

9:36 am

Yeah, specifically the adorable black one she's been visiting.

9:36 am

Gosh - had to think hard in the recesses of O-level Spanish for that one.

9:36 am

du6/27 = du + to terminate + vowel

9:36 am

du 6 27 is sp goblin or magnetism - of, its vi

9:37 am

An adorable black kitten, you say? A competitor for the cat of glory title?

9:37 am

duett=e

9:37 am

No!! Surely not??

9:38 am

We'll have to see how much is said about said kitten to see.

9:38 am

She's got a million pics on her flickr.

9:38 am

sorry, daughter kicked the computer

9:38 am

Vicuna has never been known to exaggerate.

9:38 am

I would be forced to set the DoG on the usurper

9:38 am

Never.

9:39 am

LIke this morning. I claimed to be sarcastic by default, and Lori claimed that she had never known me to be sarcastic.

9:39 am

Never.

9:39 am

Inconceivable!

9:39 am

Record sticking there a bit, Vi.

9:40 am

and thrice ... Nover! *grin*

9:40 am

I can't help it if you regale us with a series of neversome things!

9:40 am

Her faith was touching. Then again, maybe she was being sarcastic?

9:40 am

Never!

9:40 am

(Steadies for another round of...)

9:41 am

*kicks Vi to unstick her*

9:41 am

ta7?

9:41 am

*rubs shin grumpily*

9:42 am

oo thats one I don't have harp ..

9:42 am

late + not off

9:42 am

Look at harpjane's dedication. She wants to get this grid done so that she can get started on 'Frosty the snowman'

ta7=ta5 above it+not off

9:42 am

Poor harp, actually trying to find words!

9:42 am

Sorry Vi did't mean to do it that hard

9:42 am

ta7, add "not under but **" to the 5 prior to it...

9:42 am

the bu7 will unstick most things

9:43 am

Hmmm... no def on that wierdo.

9:43 am

lol haz, and TECHNICALLY for churches Christmas season does not start untill Dec 25

9:43 am

um, i guess i need the ta5 then....

9:43 am

Ah yes, TECHNICALLY, but we all know what TECHNICALLY means.

9:43 am

i hate seeing everything tossed on the 26th; we keep the Jan little date

if you're late, you're ta5

9:44 am

NO chance of your being ta5 for Christmas, harp.

9:44 am

(QUick, what does TECHNICALLY mean for a church musician?)

9:44 am

As I am missing a few ta's I will have to come back to the 7 later

9:44 am

the ten oclick scholar

9:44 am

*oclock even

9:44 am

as wayne said when garth was late, "ta7"

9:44 am

ta5 - rhymes with Laurel's comedy friend

9:44 am

lol, harp.

9:44 am

fab clue, harp! LOL

9:45 am

lol harp

9:45 am

Hello Une. Still keeping Rafa close to your heart?

9:45 am

we're singing "The First Noel" in January, when stores have put up the Valentine's decorations..

9:45 am

sigh . . . yea . . .

9:45 am

it's hazzy-doody time, it's hazzy-doody time!

9:46 am

Hello hurshy - did you miss me?

9:46 am

The four weeks leading up to Dec 25 are ADVENT not Christmas, except in the retail world....

9:46 am

of course!

9:46 am

speaking of ta5, i have to go to work now

9:46 am

Oh please - who on earth started this Christmas discussion?

9:47 am

That's nice! Only being mildly attached to babble meant that I missed everyone slightly as well.

9:47 am

It's all HAZ's fault!

9:47 am

Wasn't it you, FMitch?

9:47 am

I'm reading books about 6th Century Ireland and even THEY had debates about how to celebrate holidays!

9:47 am

I'm sure FMitch said something about it and then everybody joined in.

9:47 am

Ahhhh I should have know it was Haz Moi ... I was on the phone

9:48 am

HAZ HAZ HAZ HAZ!

9:48 am

For debates in 6th century Ireland, read bloodbaths.

9:48 am

*Thinks: Vi has been drinking my coffee*

9:48 am

the alst to die won

9:48 am

but i thought everything was fmitch's fault

9:48 am

So, moving quickly on. Have you heard that FMitch is going to be one of the runners when the Olympic torch comes to London?

9:48 am

did i miss a babble revolution?

9:49 am

"Good point" conceded the monk as the sword stuck out through the back of him.

9:49 am

fm was busy snapping photos of athletes in the loo

9:49 am

No, everything can be traced back to FMitch eventually.

9:49 am

'Fraid not hurshy but just occasionally I try to approtion the blame elsewhere

9:49 am

well i'm half way, i'll just leave babble land and sing christmas tunes under my breath at work all day....

9:49 am

you can all blame me cuz i'll be gone now

9:49 am

Okay, Haz. I'll admit. You may have been the proximal cause, but I'm sure it was FM ultimately.

9:49 am

lol harp, have a good day

9:50 am

At least you'll sing those tunes tunefully, harp. Would that the same could be said for all babblers.

9:50 am

Farewell, harpjane! Let nothing you dismay!

9:50 am

Have a good King Wenceslas Day.

9:50 am

free clue: rhodo******

9:50 am

*ignores Haz's paltry dig*

9:50 am

I wonder if the foofy one is at Heathrow taking pics?

9:50 am

i think that's not enough asterisks but you'll get the idea

9:50 am

Thanks, hursh!

Phantom: Detonate

9:51 am

And hello, of course, by the way.

9:51 am

He's bound to be, FMitch. Foofy ones gather like birds of a feather.

9:52 am

Haz, talking of F words - there were many punters fossicking at the car boot yesterday in the rain. I was impressed that it hadn't been cancelled.

9:52 am

And was the fossicking of a high standard?

9:52 am

fossicking?

9:52 am

I knew it!

9:53 am

I knew you would like the sound of a new word, hurshy.

9:53 am

afternoon - i am back for the final 48

9:53 am

Yup - means to look for .. with profit in mind

9:53 am

did you guys just make it up?

9:53 am

Hello Kazzer - feeling any more limber?

9:53 am

No - it is a real word, hails back to the old days of gold mining.

9:53 am

As if we would have the imagination to make up new words.

9:53 am

a little bit but its better if I dont sit still for too long

9:53 am

Hello, Kazzer.

9:53 am

ok wait, i still don't get this sentence at all though. punters as in, punting on the thames? why are they at a car boot and what was not cancelled?

9:54 am

ROFL!!!!

9:54 am

You'd better stand to babble, Kazzer.

9:54 am

OK.....

9:54 am

punters is another word for people buying things and no haz i am not standing to do babble

9:55 am

Punters as in people who are customers. They were at a car boot sale (like a garage sale) hoping to find treasure among the dross.

9:55 am

Eloquently put Haz

9:55 am

And if it was raining it wouldn't have been very pleasurable but sometimes the desire to fossick outweighs weather conditions.

9:55 am

ok, then i have learned three new british terms!

9:55 am

usually its just more dross to add to piles i alredy have - i love car boot sales

9:55 am

a banner day

9:56 am

I could be employed to explain things to people, couldn't I? But nothing technical, please.

9:56 am

Me too Kazz, both as a seller and a punter

9:56 am

I went to a car boot yesterday, and won a bottle of whisky in a tombola!!

9:56 am

Fossicking is pretty new to us, but since FMitch reintroduced it, we're determined to use it at every opportunity.

9:56 am

good on you liz

9:57 am

that's the spirit

9:57 am

oh no, what's a tombola?

9:57 am

i love the word fossicking - its cinjures visions of folks poking away at wierd and wonderful stuff

9:57 am

Over to you Haz

9:57 am

Usually it's one of these tiny bottles of fluorescent pop that I win.

9:57 am

Poor hurshy. We're confusing you today.

9:57 am

lol, hurshy! I hope you're taking no4's!

9:58 am

It is almost an onomatopoeic word isn't it?

9:58 am

a tombola is like a raffle prize draw where all the tickets are put in a tub on a spindle and they are drawn out

9:58 am

like with bingo

9:59 am

similar

9:59 am

tombola, tumbler with an accent?

9:59 am

There's a website to tell you how to organise one. It's a great way of recycling prizes that you have won on previous tombolas.

9:59 am

Tom Bow (emphasis on bow) la.

9:59 am

Thank you, I was dreading having to try and explain that one!

9:59 am

No hurshy

10:00 am

It's better than a bran tub, because at least you can see what you might win.

10:01 am

thats fine - weather held up today - hopefully it will fine next week in Wales

10:01 am

My whisky won't be recycled, I assure you (well, it will eventually, I suppose)

10:01 am

Hurshy, you're right, though. Its derivation is Italian for "tumble."

10:01 am

... and moving on swiftly

10:02 am

In a way.

10:03 am

ha!

10:03 am

OK I am driven to ask for a clue for the py if anyone would oblige

10:03 am

back to babble - any clues for no 6 please

10:04 am

py + moved swiftly

10:04 am

py plus walked swiftly

10:04 am

how's that for ir5?

10:04 am

There's Kazzer and FMitch reminding us that there's work to be done.

10:04 am

thanks Haz

10:04 am

10 to go, I'll leave them for my other half to do while Emmerdale's on. Bye for now.

10:04 am

ty for the py

10:04 am

10:04 am

See you liz.

10:05 am

You're welcome.

10:05 am

10:05 am

ye olde pressing of washed closed

10:06 am

*clothes

10:06 am

Time for me to go too, back to work. Thanks for the fun!

10:07 am

Bye, FM. In fact, goodbye, everyone. Duty calls.

10:07 am

See you later, FMitch and Vicuna.

10:07 am

bye vicuna and fm - see you later

10:07 am

Byeee!

10:07 am

ne7/40?

10:07 am

Those children again I suppose, Vi? Still a martyr?

10:08 am

I don't have it yet, hurshy.

10:09 am

not old + what scretaries used to do

10:09 am

thanks

10:10 am

*ahem* i don't think anyone has clued kazzer on the no6 yet... shameful neglect

10:11 am

10:12 am

ooh yes

10:12 am

10:13 am

Hello flosey!

10:14 am

10:15 am

Is your cough improving, flosey?

10:15 am

much better thanks Haz

10:16 am

Home again! Yay! Hi, everyone.

10:16 am

That's good. It can be exhausting, can't it?

10:16 am

hi there MonkeyG

10:16 am

Hello MG.

10:17 am

Dang, no panneer.

10:18 am

10:18 am

The only pe6 I have is the past tense of the hammer.

10:18 am

10:18 am

*the crime of

10:18 am

10:19 am

wd

10:20 am

odd. i have 4 left. 2 4's and 2 7's.

10:20 am

Spangle would allow herself to be taken, provided the hostage taker had a car.

10:20 am

Someone once stopped their car to ask me directions and she hopped in to the front.

10:21 am

there's another pe6 I'm missing

10:21 am

Whereas Saskia would turn into 51 kilos of terrified chaos, so we don't worry much about that.

10:21 am

lol

10:21 am

le fin

10:21 am

The ir5 was that they were looking for directions to the Dogs Trust rehoming centre.

10:21 am

pe6, looked closely

10:21 am

2 others are pt

10:21 am

pe6, nickname for a duke?

10:22 am

ty hurshy, good clue

10:23 am

Can someone clue the lwer left p? That one's been bugging me off and on all day.

10:23 am

guess it's the 'duke' clue

10:23 am

Heehee, hursh! Maybe she wanted help them pick out a good match.

10:23 am

rhymes with grow tired; or what sweet old lady calls young adult

10:23 am

thanks for all clues, still eluding me, will come back to it

10:28 am

For those following the weird antics of my workmates, today was relatively in order except for the argument I had with my boss about how to sit in a chair, the singing (he "sings along" with my classic rock station, but off-key, one or two words offset, and in Dinglish), and the attempt to keep my back warm with his hands, which I put a stop to immediately. But it was his birthday and he bought everyone pie (you treat other on your birthday here) and he was generally cheery.

10:28 am

Flosey, which were you needing?

10:29 am

p + spooky

10:30 am

pe6 after looked

10:30 am

"Knights of white satin, writing letters never intended to sending..." "Once there was a way to get back to my home words, once there was a way to get my home..."

10:30 am

Look, followed by two vowels. Vague memories of my mother talking about playing with a pe6 and whip.

10:57 am

I am having some trouble with that clue.

10:57 am

169, Phani.

10:57 am

ta7 - to a late word (in the grid) add the opposite of off.

10:57 am

bu5 was last, stuck on that for a while!

10:58 am

ta7 = ta5/16 + not off

mine was mostly a bad pun

oh for heaven's sake...

10:58 am

Wow, what's that, a lazy subatomic particle???

no josh i kep saying there was no celebrationin the grid :/

although mark twain once said you can measure the quality of a pun by the volume of the groans

10:59 am

Spider Robinson said that too.

10:59 am

There are some strange words today, flosey, that bu5 was new to me.

MG, he must be a very happy little guy, you are blessed

12:59 pm

Thank you! Yes, he is just plauin glad to be here. It warms my heart. That's why it was so scray during his lingering illness... his basic delight in eveything was gone. I was frightened. But for nearly a week now he has been himself again!

12:59 pm

We are indeed blessed.

12:59 pm

great news, hope he keeps well now

He should, knock on wood. He had aVEEEERRRRRYYYYY scary first week of life and since then has been healthya s the proverbial horse. Plenty of colds and all, of course, but he throws stuff right off. ANOTHER reason that recent six weeks was so frightening.

1:03 pm

6 weeks is long and frightening - such a darling little guy

1:03 pm

hello all

1:03 pm

hi there jilli

1:04 pm

how are you feeling this morning?

1:04 pm

pretty rotten, thanks, flosey :)

Again, thank you! This is a very pressure-full time coming up for him so I am glad he'll be well. September 18th is his birthday, he'll be 4. They go to school the day after their 4th birthday here. Exciting times, but also a Big Deal.

Oh dear, Jilli, I have missed something! Waht is the matter?

1:05 pm

our kids went to nursery school at age 4

1:05 pm

had to get up because a guy was coming to fix my old clock at a little after 10 am -- it's now after 11 and he hasn't shown up yet.

1:06 pm

monkey -- nothing serious -- just a nasty cold

1:06 pm

so glad your sweet little guy is better now!

Daycare doubles as nursery school here for parents who can't send them to the toddler-play-hall. He's been learning for two years about taking turns and eating in an orderly fashion and playing with others; now for the rest!

Glad it's just a cold; hope you get better very quickly!

1:08 pm

Jilli, not gloating, but have to tell you, I woke up this morning feeling like life is indeed worth living - so good to feel this way again

Yayyy!

1:09 pm

I'll gloat on your behalf, flosey! That's great!

1:09 pm

hi ice & here's my question... i've been using firefox and it's great except for one thing: when i try to play Scrabble in Wordscraper on Facebook, i get a message that says I must first load Flash player. When i try to load it, it says i have to close Firefox first. When I close firefox , and use internet explorer, i don't get the message to load Flash player.

3:52 pm

3:54 pm

is there not a link to load flash in firefox monkey? used to use that religiously...but doesn't work here in the UAE...

3:55 pm

the flash player for firefox is different than the one for internet explorer. You will have to go to www.adobe.com and click on 'get flash player' and it will take you to a page that has a link to download and install. You have to close firefox, install and you should be good to go.

3:55 pm

yes skeiny, when i click on the link, it keeps telling me i must close firefox first

3:56 pm

THANK U ICE! i will try that

3:56 pm

OK back to those du words.... all i have is the singing two

4:07 pm

ROCK ON MONKEY!!! did peyote in the 80's...but that was long ago and far away...ahhhh.. (sing with me, all...)..."Memories...misty color water memories" LOL

4:08 pm

tornader - one who tornades through town

4:09 pm

LOL skeiny... i was in college in the 70s (far out, man!) I'm 51 now... yes all that crazy drug use is long ago and far away :) Now i have a job with random drug testing

4:09 pm

hi, everyone -

4:09 pm

what would depube be, kajee????

4:09 pm

we almost have detonate

4:10 pm

to grow up, of course, enter your 20s

4:10 pm

change one letter and you have de 6/27, lil*monkey

4:10 pm

random drug testing here too

4:10 pm

oh i thought it was a euphemism for bikini wax

4:10 pm

thanks JBV

4:11 pm

you need an ouch ending for that

4:11 pm

you have to get random drug testing in a geek job?

4:11 pm

depube .... OUCH

4:11 pm

no drug testing here, but no drugs available here in the UAE...but that's ok...last visit was a puff while rocking the "gange" (sp?) about 10 years ago...

4:12 pm

hahahaha geek jobs are the worst/best for drug testing usually

4:12 pm

my only drug use now is alcohol... thank the lord it's legal

4:12 pm

really? i thought only health care jobs, and jobs with safety issues had random drug testing

4:12 pm

ganji?

4:13 pm

this casino randoms everyone

4:13 pm

google says it's "gange" pronounced GAHN JA

4:13 pm

yeah! monkey!!! but hubby and I have to travel 85k to buy alcohol...spend approx. $450/US at a time...there are weird laws here regarding alcohol...

4:14 pm

hey all

4:14 pm

why are you in the UAE, skeiny???

4:14 pm

HI missbeez!!!!

4:14 pm

welcome missB!!

4:14 pm

hi, skheiny - I always wondered about dubai - they are building all these super luxury hotels but do they serve liquor - who is their audience ? only muslims?

4:15 pm

hubby is an electrical engineer/oil & gas///

4:15 pm

you are from grapevine?

4:15 pm

hey lil!

4:15 pm

hi miss b

4:15 pm

i used to live right there!

4:15 pm

Hey Icy!

4:16 pm

excuse my ignorance, skeiny, but do you have to cover yourself when you go out in public??? (I mean, cover head, face, hair, legs, etc)

4:16 pm

JBV- the hotels have liquor licenses...but they are the only ones...regular resturaunt chains (a plenty here) do not...ONLY the hotels have liqour licenses

4:17 pm

So get this...i go to my office this morning - I run the office and am the GM - and i go in extra early - 5:30a.m. just because and all of my computer and everything, desk, personal stuff - all packed up and in boxes - yeah!

4:17 pm

OMG watching a commerical for Prilosec and the spokesperson is Cheryl Ladd, remember she was a Charlie's Angel... she has had some BAD plastic surgery!!! One eye is slanted up! She looks freaky!

4:17 pm

oh, missbeeze! what happened?

4:17 pm

whaaaaaaaaaaaaat mis beez? Are you fired?

4:18 pm

It is proper to keep your legs covered (at least to your knees for biz attire) and it is not really approptiate to have "tank tops" unless you on on the beach

4:19 pm

so the owner and president came here to SC from FL yesterday and didn't call or anything and boxes up my whole office without warning and then i take all my stuff and he planned on me coming in and being there when i got there, but i beat him to the punch

4:19 pm

OK thanks for that infor, skeiny

4:19 pm

So i left a note and told him he was backhanded and unprofessional and i would like an explanation and i took all my stuff and said i would be back later for the rest

4:19 pm

sorry for all the misspells...typing fast isn't my forte :)

4:19 pm

then i tried to call him and the coward wouldn't answer his phone!

4:19 pm

WOW missbeeze that is crazy

4:20 pm

I called 6 times and nothing, so i get in my car to drive back over and confront him and he does NOT want that

4:20 pm

missbeeze aren't you entitled to some notice at least? i that's really rotten

4:21 pm

so he finally realizes he better call me back, so he calls me back and tells me it is not personal, I did a good job, it is financial cut backs - LAME

4:21 pm

isn't it illegal to fire someone without any notice?

4:21 pm

that SO lame!

4:21 pm

he is a total loser - that is okay - i hated that job, and I knew something wasn't right, because he avoided communication w/me last week

4:22 pm

MissB...maybe a dumb Q...but...was there a clue? Sounds like you're a smart one...

4:22 pm

i don't know Jilli - i told him i want a written documentation stating that i was terminated or let go for financial reasons and that he has agreed to pay me 2 wks severance pay

4:22 pm

missbeeze, you are now entitled to unemployment compensation! TAKE IT! It will end up costing that company more than if you had stayed.

4:23 pm

(hi -- been lurking)

4:23 pm

you should get one week's severance pay for every year you worked there

4:23 pm

b/c he agreed to pay another girl that he made me fire 2 weeks severance and then she filed for unemployment and he wouldn't pay her the 2 wks because she filed

4:23 pm

missbeeze make sure to speak to someone to know your rights and get what you are entitled to

4:23 pm

I am going to file! I am waiting for the letter that says the agreement first - and then i'm taking it to unemployment

4:23 pm

you are allowed the severance pay AND the unemployment

4:24 pm

don't let anyone bully you! (not that it sounds like you would)

4:24 pm

i've already called the unemployment office and I called all of the customers i acquired on my own and let them know what he did today

4:24 pm

KICK ASS, GIRL!!!!

4:24 pm

DON'T WAIT FOR THE LETTER!!!

4:24 pm

good for you, miss beez!

4:24 pm

i agree with skeiny, file the unemployment right away

4:24 pm

because he will continue getting business with those accounts i brought to his company =- 4 of them

4:25 pm

what kind of company is it?

4:25 pm

well he said he did not pay a girl the 2 weeks he promised her b/c she filed unemployment though

4:25 pm

a transportation/freight broker

4:25 pm

i want to make sure i get both

4:26 pm

get that check right away, then!

4:26 pm

he is just being a bully... he does not have a legal leg to stand on

4:26 pm

i am - i have already told them i want something with the terms of my discharge right away in writing, if i don't get it by tomorrow morning, i will go ahead and file

4:27 pm

good 4 u, missb

4:27 pm

are you still in the office? (sorry, missed a bit of the chat...p-break)....you can still back up your emails/logs/etc...? maybe/hopefully?

4:27 pm

no, i can't get anything

4:28 pm

can u get into that account from your home computer?

4:28 pm

ooooh. sorry honey...got friends there that can? maybe?

4:28 pm

i tried right away i wish....i had a lot of my email contacts saved, but that is all - i don't have access or remote way to get any of it - it was an outlook account on a server- i have been blocked from my remote connection

4:29 pm

those just as cranky/overworked/underpaid?

4:29 pm

oh good idea... can u use a friend's login ???

4:30 pm

i was the only person in the office, i ran the office by myself, that was part of the problem, i had no support - he made me fire the only support person i had - the one he didn't pay her the 2 wks that he told me to tell her we would pay her - then she emailed me asking for it and i had to tell her we weren't paying it b/c she filed unemployment

4:30 pm

it's just so shocking how coldblooded people/companies can be! who were we talking with a week or so ago, whose husband got fired because he hurt his back? Was that Nance's husband???

4:31 pm

yikes! an office of one...sorry honey...

4:31 pm

i think it was Nance's husband lil...i've never been treated this way - i'm gonna make sure it is known though - he is not going to be able to make it sound like it was just financial thing and brush it over

4:31 pm

Sorry to hear you are going through this, missbeeze

4:32 pm

everyone! gather 'round for a group hug of MissBeeze, and everyone send good karma her way (please) :)

4:32 pm

thanks JBV - i have a great support in my husband - he has been great today - he is just like telling me you deserve so much better and don't let it get you down - something better is in store - take time and find something that makes you happy

4:32 pm

I have always worked in very large organizations, well represented by unions and now realize how much we take those protections for granted -

4:32 pm

4:34 pm

{{{{{{{{beezy}}}}}}}}}

4:34 pm

4:34 pm

thanks Jilli!

4:34 pm

4:34 pm

9:58 pm

that was before they were on tv, harpjane
