*** ruru is thinking" I am not sure I want to see kiwi aroudn sharp knives ...***

1:14 am

and yes great work!!

1:14 am

sticking my head in the chatterbox for a second -- caught Kiwi's reference to a diner-on-the-Plains and it reminded me of mine (right back atcha!) in an Arthur W. Upfield setting. The grass is always browner on the other side of the world, huh!

1:14 am

yes -- at 11, but I haven't found it yet

1:14 am

oh okay sorry!!!! well try hugh or graeme kerr no he might be dead

1:15 am

well hi jwr nice to see you pop up :)

1:15 am

no one can top Julia Child

1:15 am

I am thinking here.. that Kiwi lives in the most beautiful place on earth and wants to hurl hash fries in middle america...wow

1:15 am

the 11 is an AT word

1:15 am

The caterpiller told Alice to do this when she said she had trouble remembering...

1:15 am

i think hes still alive lore

1:15 am

that is a conundrum ruru

1:15 am

jwr good point

1:15 am

Hello everyone...been lurking...

1:16 am

dougie!!!! wow you popped up too

1:16 am

my first food show was the Galloping Gourmet

1:16 am

1:16 am

hi doug happy to see you

1:16 am

hello douglas

1:16 am

Hello Groovy, west, lore...

1:16 am

acutally ruru the only reason i want to do that is to find myself a rich cowboy and live on a ranch with some horses for the rest of my life lol

1:16 am

kerr was good before he went on his fat free kick

1:17 am

er.. kiwi.. most cowboys are not as bright as you are..

1:17 am

good morning DOuglas...you're up a bit early..or late..

1:17 am

hi Kiwi - going soon. Have a lot of emailing to do to find housing by midSept but Ruru's right -- it's just that "romance" is always on the other side of the universe. "Here" is too ... familiar, no matter how lovely.

1:18 am

he was on US tv stations for a long time, loredana

1:18 am

i got a spare bedroom to rent if you need it jaw :)

1:18 am

little piece of trivia by the by lore/others - my great aunt was the chef who introduced americans to the pavlova :)

Morning, folks! I am not really here-- have to clean up my house for the interview this morning. But I thought I would come on to display my icon for today. It's a Ven diagram by my grandfather. He is very ill in hospital, I learned last night, and so when i saw the theme today I though, well, let's get some of HIS calligraphy up! He's on my mind today, you see.

1:19 am

hello everyone

1:19 am

what's the No about Ruru?

1:19 am

oh really so he got to be a well know chef then wasnt he the "clarified butter one"?

1:19 am

1:22 am

falling asleep, goodnight all, be back in the morning

Yes. I hope he's going to be OK, but a serious illness at 91 needs to be worried about. I hope I will see him again, though. As my husband says, prepare for the worst, hope for the best. Not having a good day so far though, about it.

1:22 am

i love it when a chat flow makes ppl pop out of lurking

1:22 am

my parents always said that they would fund me an open ended ticket to aussie and return if i wanted to travel/work before i settled down and i said no

2:26 am

hindsight being as it is i always regret not doing that

2:28 am

why did you decide not to do it kiwi?

2:28 am

gee that dang c has a lot to answer for

2:29 am

i have been going to travel since i was 15 only made aussie and singapore so far

2:29 am

because my hubby asked me to marry him at the same time as my parents offered or maybe they offered because he asked me lol

2:29 am

kiwi lol could be

2:29 am

oh

2:30 am

lore i did 10 days camping in gippsland in the mid 80s and then did a 10 day bus trip from sydney to brisbane

2:30 am

but now you have those two beautiful boys

2:30 am

cool kiwi not scared of snakes then

2:31 am

yes i know and an ex to be who is now not being amicable and has made veiled threats through his lawyer so says the latest missive i got from my lawyer this week

2:32 am

unfortunately westie my lawyer has recommended that i agree to his terms and settle so im on the hunt for a new lawyer come tomorrow

obviously his terms are unreasonable ...so many gutless lawyers who waste peoples time and then expect to get paid!!!!

2:35 am

2:36 am

maybe if you ring a few womens welfare groups they should have some good ones

Good Luck, Good Health, Tranquility, Long Life - sorry it's too fuzzy to read

2:46 am

Chrissie, it is a beautiful icon and a very profound good wish :) Thanks!

2:46 am

thanks chrissie thats lovely can read good luck good health

2:47 am

no problem reading it here

2:47 am

only tranquility had me puzzled, lol

was looking for one that said something along the lines of "wishes for hemmeroids for all soon to be ex-husbands" for kiwi

2:50 am

ohhhhhh lovely one!

2:50 am

awww thanks chrissie

just got th5, taking self to PB

2:51 am

makes me think of Jos Brink, a dutch comedian. "Itch on all placed you cannot reach" is a curse he made up.

2:51 am

oh my word I'm back feeding time at the zoo

2:52 am

lol west

2:52 am

*places

2:52 am

we forgive you chrissie

my dad never said a bad or swear word, but his curse was "may your earholes turn to a***holes and sh** all over you"

2:53 am

rofl i like that chrissie

2:53 am

roflol!~ Oh my, potent one!

2:53 am

i like that one chrissie

2:53 am

one cat decides she wants to eat I put the food down and the other two come out from nowhere and the first doesn't want to eat anymore

2:53 am

that's funny crissie

2:53 am

yep its a cat thing westie same thing happens here

2:54 am

I like the chinese one the best: May you live in interesting times.

2:54 am

my father's worse 'swear' word was fudge

and we certainly do sprite

2:54 am

oh yes, we do

2:55 am

yesterday was interesting too. Can I vent? My daughter's friend slammed the cardoor shut on my daughter's hand, didn't realise it and didn't react when my daughter told her to open the door.

2:55 am

geez sprite is she okay?

2:56 am

ouch is she ok spritey?

2:56 am

is your daugther ok sprite

2:56 am

my husband yelled at her to open the door, then she opened another door, he yelled at her: no, the other one! Then he had managed to get the door open, he gave the friend her stuff from horseriding, (they were before their front door) and took my daughther home to cool her hand.

2:57 am

did the little girl call later and apologize?

2:57 am

with one hand in ice, sitting in my arms, my daughter tried to call the friend to tell her it wasn't as bad as it looked at first. No answer.

2:57 am

then 5 minutes later the dad called us, to yell at my husband... how he dared to yell at his daughter, that the girl was upset now and that it was my husbands fault, and that he would not allow the girls to be friends anymore.

2:58 am

oh my goodness!!! not a good frind at all.

2:58 am

not even asked about my daughter's hand.

2:58 am

Caya's hand is ok, thanks God. We cooled for about half an hour, lots of reiki, and it was pretty much ok this morning.

2:58 am

isn't it too bad people are like that?

2:59 am

oh no people should understand that in those situations it is panic that takes over

2:59 am

oh, I don't blame the friend. It is a girl of 10 yo, she was in shock, I think, and felt very guilty. I blame the dad. Jerk.

omg sprite, unbelievably rude

2:59 am

it is not yelling from anger, it is yelling from urgency. A slammed-shut cardoor on a hand must be opened urgently. Someone we know has lost a finger because of the same thing.

2:59 am

unfortunately children learn what they live

2:59 am

well .........unbelieveable... the Dad not good man... poor girl father like that caya is okay now yes

3:00 am

I feel sorry for both of the girls

3:00 am

do the girls attend the same school?...it'll be hard to not be friends when one or the other apologises

3:00 am

im so glad shes ok and im sorry that the father was rude

3:01 am

so I had my dear girl, who already had reached out to the other girl while she still was white as sheets from the pain, to reassure her... totally upset because she thought she had lost a friend too.

3:01 am

hopefully in a few days once he has calmed down spritey you maybe able to talk to him properly

3:01 am

same here as kiwi sprite

3:01 am

they are in the same class, sitting in the same group, lol

3:01 am

it's a shame he has said the girls can't be friends

3:01 am

I told my girl we would not let this happen like this. We will let the fool cool off and try speak to the mum tonight or tomorrow.

3:02 am

Mum's can be a big help

3:02 am

yes sprite thast would be for the best

3:02 am

mothers do tend to smooth things over

3:02 am

yeah, I kinda hope the mum will be more reasonable. As far as I know her, she will be.

3:03 am

sometimes men can be 'ear holes '

3:03 am

lol, I vented in yesterday's evening's chat too and promised I would not give the jerk a piece of my mind. I intend to do anything I can to give my girl her friend back.

3:04 am

lobo, I love your icon!

3:04 am

totally agree westford especially in circumstances like this

3:04 am

and you will Sprite

3:04 am

thanks all, for being there for me. Babble friends are wonderful people.

3:04 am

Women are so much better with these situations than men

3:04 am

its a bit hard to read once it became an icon though

3:05 am

men tend to be singleminded. I mean, a woman would have done the same in my husbands place, but would also have said to the other girl: "don't worry sweetie, it wasn't your fault, go into your house and we will call you soon."

3:06 am

well if you havent already you must go check your email sprite cause theres a very appropriate utube link there for you and it will be a saving grace for you promise

3:06 am

and a mother who got a guiltridden, upset girl home with this story would have said: "Oh, how terrible for you, and for Caya. Let's wait for that phonecall to hear how it goes, it may not be as bad."

3:07 am

its actually an amazing grace and also a saving one but take your box of tissues

3:07 am

lobo, you are so dear to me :) WIll open email right away.

3:07 am

Things will settle and all will be well. But in the meantime it is so upsetting when it is your child that is involved

3:08 am

waaaaaaa no video again tonite :( sniff sniff

3:08 am

Finally - fireworks (no list)

3:08 am

Sprite is that you in kiwi's icon

congratulations kiwi and hugs

3:09 am

wtg hug - how clever

3:09 am

good job kiwi and hugs

3:09 am

I also think (philosophing here) that fathers tend to be more aggressively protecting about their kids. THey are like: nothing bad should ever happen to my baby. And mothers are a little harder, like: something bad has happened, now I will help you deal with it and protect you from all unnecessary threats."

3:09 am

congrats kiwi

3:09 am

woopee!!! huga no list clever girl!!!!! hugs for you

3:09 am

3:10 am

3:10 am

I dislike b words very much... give me re words instead and I'd be quite happy

3:10 am

thanks sandy :) So very true, grin.

3:11 am

I once read: the love of a father for his child is amazed, the love of a mother for her child is knowing.

3:11 am

very badly translated, I think

3:11 am

sprite, you could pass as my sister very easily

3:11 am

well, the mischief part is true.

6:52 am

good morning- hi peri, just found ar 8 - do you have that one?

was in earlier, at the flip, but couldn't get an edge in cause of the 'no clue' clause. I would like to be able to finish the grid before dinner... my time zone doesn't allow it though as 'no cluing' is the 'rule'

6:53 am

no, I don't

6:53 am

it's ar6/24 + adjective ending - let me know if you need the 6

6:53 am

who decided on the no clue rule, anyway?

what's a no clue rule?

6:54 am

if they don't want clues let them not look at chat log

6:54 am

uh-oh, what's the no clue rule?

peri, who bloody knows... I say turn off the chat log

6:54 am

Good afternoon everyone.

6:54 am

I have an idea who it might be but won't say here

6:55 am

yes, JBV, a coue for the ar6 would be lovely

jbv, at the flip there is this so called 'rule' of not cluing... it shits me

6:55 am

*clue* even

hi elder :))

6:55 am

hi elder

6:55 am

ar 6 - french for silver

6:55 am

it wasn't me :) many of us request clues , when we are really stuck...

6:56 am

it is not a Babble rule it is something thought up by one or two of the babblers who are on at the flip

6:56 am

I have that ar6 JBV

6:56 am

Mr P. I think that's the first time I have heard you swear :)

6:56 am

then add two thirds of frozen water, peri, for the 8

elder, I ask for clues or give them... doesn't matter what 'time' it is after flip. Flip happens for me at 3pm... and I have about 2 hours to finish.

you have to come around more often elder LOL

sorry elder...

6:56 am

i'm never awake at the flip so I guess I've never heard of that, thank goodness

6:57 am

not getting the end of the ar6

ar + polite male

6:57 am

NM got the ar8, thanks JBV

6:57 am

The flip for me is 1 AM so I am almost never around...

6:57 am

Mr P. no apologies needed.. I 'giggled ' :)

6:57 am

flip happens at 1 am in the morning here

6:57 am

7:04 am

Une... are you expecting yet another typhoon/ hurricane... so awful .. poor residents.they must be terrified.

7:05 am

Elder, it's now a level 4 hurricane and, yes, it's horrible for those who went through this just 3 years ago

7:07 am

"New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin ordered the city's more than 239,000 residents to evacuate on Sunday in the face of powerful Hurricane Gustav, which he called "the mother of all storms."

7:07 am

Une, I read in the paper that he told residents to "get your butts out of New Orleans"

7:08 am

the New Orleans website, www.nola.com, has tons of info

7:08 am

Thoughts are with the people and the animals. So devastating , one can hope that the evacuation is more successful and effective than last time.

7:09 am

If, possible and if, I don't get shouted down ( given the earlier chat) please, may I have a clue for the In/9.

7:10 am

correction: a million have already left, and the 239,000 are the remaining residents Nagin's telling to LEAVE

7:11 am

elder, I wish I had the in9 to give you

7:11 am

in 9 - what courts order segregated schools to do

we have been getting info here about the people who have stayed... they won't leave cause they want to stay and help out allegedly

7:11 am

Une, where on earth, do all the people go to ?

7:12 am

JBV. thank you, will search.

7:12 am

thanks, JBV

7:12 am

Elder, they're leaving by car, bus, train, and plane NORTH . . . to homes of family and friends and to shelters set up specifically for evacuees

7:14 am

in9: to mesh, to assimilate

http://www.nola.com/ News on New Orleans.

7:14 am

Une, thanks, 'cause I was thinking some people would not have their own transport and too frail to move. hence the need for the government to put in place strategies..

I like ic7... cold ship

7:15 am

hello herin

7:15 am

hey, herin, yeah, i mentioned that site a few minutes ago

7:16 am

got the 9, easy when you have it .. silly me :)

7:16 am

I keep seeing iceberg

7:16 am

ice boat

7:16 am

elder, it's nite and day from the Katrina debacle as far as helping people get out, including folks in nursing homes, hospitals, etc.

7:16 am

Uh, oh, look at my entrance! **sprinting to the PB to find breakfast goodies**

on ya scrabs! into the penalty box for you!

7:16 am

scrabbs, great clue

7:16 am

hey, scrabs!

7:16 am

Une... good to hear..

Oh snap then. I am hoping it doesn't hit as hard as Katrina as they are still so devastated there. On a funny note though when Katrina hit a few hard core boys did their Gay Pride march down Burbon street

7:17 am

Hello Scrabs and Herin

7:17 am

I was so excited to see a clue right as I entered the gates of Babble Land.

7:17 am

when Katrina hit, it was a category 3 and this one is expected to hit at category 4 level

7:17 am

*puts strong coffee and cheese danish in the PB for Scrabbler*

oh f??? that is not good.

7:18 am

hi, scrabbler

7:18 am

Yes, I have been watching Hurricane Gustav reports on TV for the last hour, while I read the newspaper and drank coffee.

7:18 am

I can't begin to imagine the force of a wind that strong.

HI every back too.

7:18 am

there's also cannoli - free for the taking -

7:19 am

Oh, my Live Update just finished so I have to restart--BRB.

it has killed about 90 people so far... off the coastal regions. It will be harsh if it continues momentum

7:19 am

had a big party last night and am congratulating myself for exercising massive will power and not indulging in any pastry at all!

Well done Jbv

7:20 am

it's very hard to stay on the plan when everyone around you is eating like there is no tomorrow

7:20 am

thanks, herin - I celebrate my small successes

7:20 am

well done you JBV, to have that strength of will power.

News just in Gustav down to a cat 3

7:21 am

they ate sausage, I had chicken

7:21 am

herin, but it's expected to "regroup" before hitting the coast

7:21 am

I also saw news they are tracking the next storm, Hanna

jbv! that happened to me today at a BBQ! everyone had sausage and I had chicken strips

7:22 am

doesn't it feel good to know you are eating healthy, mr p?

too right jbv!

mmph. We had a carpet picnic at my friends house today

7:23 am

I also made a salad of quinoa, black beans and corn - have you ever tried quinoa? I love it

never heard of quinoa!

but I did have corn tonight, with fish

it's a grain

7:23 am

it's a grain from Peru -

very nutritious

P.s I am in the car and i may be going to turn off the pc in about 10 min

7:24 am

yes, high in protein - and a great unique taste

better than a locust from africa

7:24 am

in the car? are you driving?

or a hissing cockroach from madagascar

Or a Rat from Singapore or Horse penis from China

7:25 am

ugh!!!!

lol

7:25 am

easy to cook, also, just boil water, throw it in, like couscous

you win herein

7:26 am

then mix it with different vegetables for a side dish, I like it with peas and onions

I am not driving i don't ahve a license I am the passinger on a wireless modem

7:26 am

thank goodness

I have a wireless modem thingie

7:31 am

I am back. It is a pain to reboot the computer.

well im going so ahve a nice day or night

7:32 am

good morning!

7:32 am

Bye herin

7:33 am

Hi Doren

7:33 am

hi dorens - back from the vinyard?

7:33 am

Oh, I love Cape Cod and haven't been there for several yrs.

7:34 am

yes -- as much as i loved being there. it is terrific to wake up and babble in my quiet house at my own computer. we had great weather.... terrific food, wine and company.

7:34 am

me too scrabs, my sister has a house in Brewster but we haven't been up there in several years

7:35 am

jbv, if you have a house available.... skeddadle on up there!

I should be back tommorow but i have a shinny new pc game to play

7:35 am

it seems those 7 hour road trips are getting more difficult for us

7:36 am

the ride home last night wasn't so hot!! had to drop my daughter off in brooklyn too. but oonce you're there, it is heavenly. night herin!

7:36 am

JBV, I forget where you live.

7:37 am

central new jersey, east brunswick

7:37 am

My sister lives up in Bergen County.

7:37 am

thursday I had to drive to queens for a funeral - took two hours , very unpleasant

Enjoy

7:38 am

you could break it up, jbv,, spend a night in connecticut maybe?

7:38 am

we did that once, dorens, stayed in Mystic - that was very nice

7:39 am

nice photo, dorens, I'm relaxing just looking at you all

7:39 am

makes sense.. and mystic is nice... did you stop for pizza there?

7:39 am

:)

7:41 am

thanks jbv... i'm looking forward to putting up some from this year... that pic is from a year or two ago.

7:41 am

scrabs, the house we had this year was on a cove with canoe, little motor boat, sunfish, and a kayak

7:42 am

That sounds wonderful, Doren!!

7:43 am

pretty magical.... the stars were awesome at night too. i wish i could have invited babblers everywhere to drop in, but i particularly pictured you there.... driviing down a crazy rutted dirt road forever just to get to the house... but what a prize at the end. across the cove was sepiessa nature reserve.... birds galore

7:43 am

beautiful, dorens - are you headed back to work next week after a long summer vacation?

7:44 am

ok sorry. that is enough... time to find some words... i'm off at 9. yes,, jbv.. tuesday... i can't iimagine

7:46 am

you too jbv ?

7:46 am

teachers come back on Tuesday, I'm an administrator so my summer vacation is a little different - took 10 days in one chunk, then long weekends the rest of the time

7:47 am

this past week was pretty intense for us - the last minute preparations, new teacher orientation, etc.

7:47 am

forgot you were in admin.... was y our summer good tho?

7:48 am

yes, great, didn't travel, stayed home, but really relaxed, read a lot, took care of household things, Babbled!!

7:49 am

I was looking up Sepiessa NAture Reserve--wow!

7:49 am

nice.... lots of babble this summer... got so used to being able to babble in the morning, and not feel stressed about time - problem is i have this man in my life now who also wants my time... i managed while not working, but don't know how i'll babble, work, and have time for him.

7:50 am

yes, work does seem to get in the way.......

7:50 am

oh, i have to check.... never saw it on line, just in person. and yes. WOW! so, right across the cove there are a couple of houses and we were in one.

7:50 am

Well, Dorens, you KNOW which comes FIRST

7:51 am

annie, i'm so afraid to tell y ou my answer to that one! --- he actually asked if we get married would i insist on babbling on a honeymoon?

7:52 am

dorens, That is very funny...the addiction is as severe as mine

7:52 am

Duh, Doren, that is a no-brainer! Babble is critical to daily happiness!

7:53 am

one-a-day brain vitamin

7:53 am

We are all in agreement

7:53 am

so i will have my buddies explain to him then, right? the only problem is that one-a-day sometimes takes over two hours!

7:55 am

well. maybe i will play daily but give up my compulsion to finish???? i just don't think i can stay in the 1030 club (right now in 1029 cause i helped my daughter move into her new apt the same day i had other things to do and it was a big grid)

7:55 am

He can do his daily hobby while you are babbling.

7:56 am

I know what you mean dorens, (at the risk of boring others who saw this earlier, I'll retell my story): last night about 15 minutes before flip I realized I needed 10 more words, excused myself from a housefull of guests, and sat down at the computer, found my last 10 with an audience around me cheering me one

7:56 am

i wish he would/could but he is retired, and when I go back to work, he plays golf during the day and then what do I do at night with someone who wants my attention? I want him to go back to work, not so much for the $$ as to keep h im occupied

7:56 am

*on

7:57 am

dorens I have been living like that for two years with hubby who retired - he knows he has to challenge himself to keep busy with projects so as not to be too dependent on me, but it is a tricky balancing act

7:57 am

i totally understand jbv! ii played every night with my family around last week, thinking i should be with them, not going nuts for the last ten words. but they all seem to understand, even tho they pity me and think i need intervention

7:58 am

well jbv, we have to talk!!!

7:58 am

Hey, we enjoy the word search, have OCD, and this makes us happy, both socially + emotionally.

7:58 am

hear,hear!

7:59 am

here's to guilt-free babbling!

7:59 am

I have seen one good change in myself - I used to bring work home much more and now because I want to have quality family time at night I am forcing myself to limit work at home

7:59 am

i was never ocd about anything else tho. ... wish it would manifest itself in picking things up around the house and ironing or something

7:59 am

And this is a healthy addiction. We are fending off dementia. We have support + friendship. It is far safer than most addictions!

8:00 am

Hi Hurshy--how is life in New Haven?

8:00 am

well. it will be a very interesting balancing act when i get back to school. if i manage to keep up the relationship with him, i will still babble daily no matter what, but I think i may not complete every grid

8:00 am

fine

8:00 am

hurshy,, i thought about you as we drove through on 95 last night (rushing to get home so i could play)

8:00 am

Several months ago I gave up the compulsion to finish grids. I drop in for fun and to chat.

8:01 am

i think i need to get there scrab, was it hard?

8:02 am

Somewhat, at first, but it was necessary to have balance in my life, including enough sleep. And in the summer I want to be outdoors and I don't have a laptop.

8:02 am

Good morning, all!

8:02 am

phantom: goatherd

8:02 am

uh-oh! just opened door to greet outdoor cat, and indoor cat bolted for freedom. he's out there with his tail twitching, all excited

8:02 am

Hi Pam--making a morning appearance!!

8:03 am

Glad to see so much chogging as I don't want to start the grid yet, just want to say hi to the morning folk!

8:03 am

Haha, hurshy

8:03 am

hi pam

8:03 am

Hope he comes right in, dorens!

8:03 am

Hello all.

8:03 am

Hi pam!

8:03 am

Hi Bea

8:03 am

hi, bzz

8:03 am

and Bzzn

8:04 am

hi bzz - no, he came near the door and then raced away. he's making a statement ( i was gone for a week)

8:04 am

Gustav hit Cuba at a 4, and now is a 3 gaining speed...this is a monster!

8:04 am

Hi, annie

8:04 am

An 11 letter word. oooooo...

8:04 am

Hello fellow addicts. I've been plodding my way through the grid and nodding my head in agreement at the chog.

8:04 am

nodding back at you jac

8:04 am

Hi, Jac

8:04 am

Today 4 of us are having a tennis/Scrabble/food fest. I have had no sciatic pain for a few days so it will be my first time playing tennis in a few months.

8:04 am

does anyone have all the e's on the right? I only have two - en 6/21 and et 4/5

8:04 am

Morning. *stands up and admits she is a Babble addict*

8:04 am

my guess is it starts with re and ends with ly

8:05 am

Sounds GREAT, Scrabs

8:05 am

Hi Jacula + Judi.

8:05 am

en7, jbv

8:05 am

thanks hursh, the 11 is at 11/120

8:05 am

Glad you are not feeling any pain, Scrabs.

8:05 am

Morning Scrabbler.

8:05 am

en 6 and 7 --to lure and one who does so

8:05 am

got the en, thanks

8:06 am

I was proud of myself this AM. I woke up at 6:30, after just 7 hrs of sleep, and wanted to sleep in after working 8 days straight. but I got up to take on the day.

8:06 am

scrabs, i had thought that was done earlier... sorry it has taken so long

8:06 am

Ty Annie

8:06 am

That's great, scrabs!

8:07 am

Good for you Scrab! *I should really be getting ready to go the grocery store*

8:07 am

I have been mountain biking a lot in the past week. My kayaking buddy is in Europe with her husband.

8:07 am

scrabbs, but coffee and babble en6ed you

8:08 am

And Bunny Sebastian was jumping on me, his way of demanding his morning salad. He is used to me arising at 6 AM.

8:08 am

We went to grandson's 1st birthday party last night. You would have thought I was the one hosting as I was exhausted when we left.

8:08 am

ack! i said i was only babbling till 9 and i'm behind schedule. oh well, it's not like i have anything compelling today.... just unpacking and that kind of stuff. and the company here is too good to leave now

8:08 am

hi gang....Scrabs! Long time no see!

8:08 am

That is a big milestone for family, Bea.

8:08 am

hi Dorens (quick before she scoots out)

8:08 am

Hey, AS.

8:09 am

hi and bye A

8:09 am

Those birthday parties can be tiring! And I'm only an Aunt!!!!

8:09 am

Hi ASG--the kids are home and how did they enjoy camp?

8:09 am

Hi Bzzzn, Pam too!

8:09 am

Hi, ASG!

8:09 am

Yes. His other family is Korean, so there were lots of traditions the little guy had to endure.

8:09 am

they had a GREAT time! we all had a super summer. It's been great having them home too now, these couple of weeks before school starts

8:10 am

Do the kids want to do summer camp again, asg?

8:10 am

They are signed up for next summer already. I had a rough start myself....but then settled in quite well!! :)

8:10 am

Bzzn, I attended a one year Korean birthday party - with elaborate costumes, etc. (it was a girl) - did you have that, too? and wonderful food!

8:11 am

Only one aunt wore a costume. But yes, LOTS of food and DRINK.

8:11 am

I've been joking that I cried when the left -- then I cried when they had to come home! But honestly, they had such a good time and we're all appreciating each other a bit more... :)

8:12 am

so Scrabs, I read you aren't a compulsive finisher? I haven't gotten there yet - I won't start a grid if I don't think I can finish - crazy, huh?

8:13 am

I rarely finish, I just love the search, the chat, the looking at new words... Working listless helps with all of that...

8:13 am

pam, same here

8:13 am

I am no longer allowing a grid and list of words to keep me hostage at the computer. The great outdoors calls my name too often.

8:14 am

Although, I know there are listless folks who do finish every grid, I just mean that for me and my ability/inability it works

8:14 am

no, not crazy A, a lot of people do that. i am trying to get to the point that i can walk away knowing i haven't finished... i will need it in the next few weeks or have to break off a very nice relationship.. just not enough time in the day when you work too

8:14 am

I would think a very nice relationship will begin to assert itself 8-)

8:14 am

Oh! A, you probably know Ken Robinson, right? (Chris, Andy and Heather's father?)

8:15 am

{confessing} I finish every day but I do use the list

8:15 am

yes pam, but babble still comes first :)

8:15 am

well, I know Chris - and know of the Dad, but not personally....

8:15 am

I'm with JBV--although I will admit to turning over a new leaf and going to bed if I have too many words to get at the end of the day.

8:15 am

Me, too JBV. Soemtimes with list sometimes not.

8:16 am

But then, I don't work. =(

8:16 am

I couldn't do it with out the list - it's the darn rankings that hold me hostage.... I just want to get to that 1030 on the right ONCE!! lol

8:16 am

As I'm getting older, I'm finding that work interferes with a lot of things I want to do each day!!! LOL

8:16 am

LOLOL, judy

8:17 am

totally agree, Judy

8:17 am

try not checking the rankings, ASG..

8:17 am

Yes, work sucks the life right out of me, as well as time.

8:17 am

the list certainly helps with the larger puzzles. (anyway, A, Chris's dad is my main squeeze these days..... kinda cute)

8:17 am

Dorens, I hope you are typing some details ....????

8:17 am

be careful, AsG - when you hit 1030, then you don't want to miss a day or you'll go down

8:18 am

Who is Chris, dorens?

8:18 am

too true, jbv

8:18 am

Chris is a kid who went to school with AsG and his father and I are an "item"

8:18 am

gotcha, dorens!

8:18 am

really!!?!! Didn't I hear that he is married? I assume (since this is a pulic forum) that's over?

8:18 am

oh, not really a kid. he's over 40 actually

8:19 am

*public

8:19 am

Chris and I were the same year in school....oh, the stories....lol

8:19 am

haha, ok. so the deal is he and i were seeing each other after Chris's mom died, but even tho he thought he was ready, I thought he was still too needy.. he had been through a tought time taking care of her in a terrible illness... so we stopped for a while, and MA Conners (Brennan) snapped hiim up

8:20 am

but she was after something, and it was kind of obvious, and their marriage failed (predictable to some, but I know he's not the type to give up and I thought he'd be married to her till he died)

8:21 am

annnnd.....

8:21 am

uh oh. hope i don't find out that she is a friend of your sister's or something

8:21 am

well of course, he figured i'd never forgive him for jumping into that and marrying her. but I really did understand it completely, and only wanted his happiness. he is an amazingly kind and good man

8:22 am

no no no...... I heard they were married - and I'm not sure if I heard they were divorced (I may have).... but I heard that whole thing was odd anyway (him being somewhat older than she)

8:22 am

what a story, dorens - it sounds as if you are fated for each other, you saw it from the beginning

8:22 am

that's wonderful - honestly.... I'm happy for you - and him too! He's a lucky guy that you are forgiving!

8:23 am

how was negro not found in the dictionary???

8:23 am

it's a fairytale!

8:23 am

And this Mountain Lakes, NJ Update is brought to us by Doren & ASG.

8:23 am

hello

8:23 am

Good for your Dorens! I hope you have a fairy tale ending!!!!

8:23 am

LOL, scrabs

8:23 am

lol Scrabbs....

8:23 am

dorens, You know what they say about a good man is hard to find...sounds like he is a keeper

8:23 am

their divorce is in the courts... don't know how long it will take but they both have signed a settlement. i'm not really that forgiving, wasn't sure if I could handle hiim then anyway.... still sometimes not sure (he has too much time and wants more of my attention, time and space than I imight be able to give)

8:23 am

Hi, KJE

8:23 am

It is probably an offensive word, lex.

8:23 am

good mornign kje!!

8:24 am

I think it's a proper noun lex

8:24 am

Hey, kje.

8:24 am

and he4/7 isn't???

8:24 am

sorry if Dorens and I are taking up the chog here....

Afternoon, folks.

8:24 am

Hi kje

8:24 am

blackie is allowed too

8:24 am

no, it is a proper noun

8:24 am

or is it darkie? not sure

8:24 am

hi mg and peri and lex

8:24 am

hello all

8:24 am

he 4/7 actually has another meaning - a plant

8:25 am

I am stalling at 73 found.

8:25 am

Morning/afternoon new arrivals

8:25 am

lone Y?

8:25 am

kje, I haven't even started the grid - just chatting! :)

8:25 am

ye 4 - affirmative exclamation

8:25 am

ok, done with my story here.. (just have to say, annie you are right!) and hi KJE

8:25 am

lone Y is slang for yes

8:25 am

but I went on facebook... I'm playing another game on Scrabble, not Wordscraper....wanna try that next?

8:25 am

got it - ty

8:26 am

sure asg

8:26 am

Dorens, I would think that he would be respectful of your needs for space.

8:26 am

have not tried wordscraper, is it fun?

8:27 am

do the grid asg

8:27 am

ok, Spongebob is over - time to spend time w/my kiddos. Bfast, etc. see y'all later! Dorens - don't let the grid get in the way of your man! :)

8:27 am

I really like Scramble on facebook

8:27 am

I couldn't work out HOW to play Wordscraper. *blush*

aw careful lexy, you'll make me all weak in the knews, next thing you know you'll be telling me you smell like moth balls

8:30 am

Why would you be dressed sexy to go to church?

8:30 am

I was reading the latest on Gustav on weather.com. What a monster it is.

8:30 am

Afternoon all Nutty!!! I had a dream about you and Ren last night, very bizarre!

8:30 am

hi fm

8:30 am

would figure that gustav would go and be a monster

8:30 am

Hi FM.

8:31 am

Oh, no Scrabs. I have friends in Houston who are very concerned about Gustav.

8:31 am

well not so much moth balls....not a granny yet! how about Walnut Whip lotion.

8:31 am

really fmitch? were we dressed as pirates?

8:31 am

afternoon FM

8:31 am

hi, FM :-)

8:31 am

hmmm...no that won't work on me like moth balls

8:31 am

You posted a dictionary to me to send on to Ren with a strange note inside it for her. No pirates anywhere?! Hi peri and Judy!

8:31 am

i had a dream about a pool, and i don't know if it's a pool i've swum in or only a pool that i've dreamed about before

8:32 am

Hello Jacs and scrabs and hurshy and all

8:32 am

i had a dream that i was hanging out with a bunch of quiet people all dressed in black and i wasn't feeling as cool as them

8:32 am

FM - dreaming about Babblers and dictinaries? Sounds like you need a Babble break. ROFLOL

8:32 am

My sister's law firm just played golf at a country club as guests of a client. The client's business had the club for the day and the theme was pirates. Everyone dressed up and played golf.

8:32 am

I dream grids sometimes and it's really annoying if I wake up before I finish them.

8:32 am

hi, peri and fmitch

8:32 am

now that would be fun scrabs

8:33 am

I know Jacs, I remember thinking this is very strange and then woke up and it ws flipping 4.30 this morning.

8:33 am

ROFL Jac

8:33 am

that sounds very weird, scrabs - what's the point?

8:33 am

*dictionaries

8:33 am

I was thinking that you should have been in charge, nut.

8:33 am

Pam!! Hey hun, haven't seen you for ages :)

8:33 am

hey pam

8:33 am

no no, ren should definitely have been in charge...i'll just pour the rum

I see by the clock that my aunt must be up by now in CA... no e-mails here about my grandfather, so I guess no news is good news!

8:33 am

JBV--insurance people + lawyers don't make sense.

8:33 am

I know, fmitch

8:34 am

All well with you?

8:34 am

they probably hired an event planner who came up with this zany idea

8:34 am

Your GF is ill, MG?

8:34 am

it is 0630 in california mg - still quite early

8:34 am

Actually, I didn't dream about Babble last night. I've been playing a matching game on Facebook in recent days, 'Summer Couples', and I was doing that just before I woke.

Yes, he was admitted through the ER evening before yesterday. Very bad bladder infection, they saay, high fever, not waking up, BP fluctuating.

Yes, kje, but in the case of bad news she'd have let me know by now; she tends to get up before 6. So no news is good news.

8:35 am

bbl

8:35 am

That is urosepsis, MG. He is a sick boy.

8:35 am

'Bye Peri.

Yes, tehy said he is very ill. And at 91 taht is bad news.

8:36 am

8:36 am

Jacs just noticed we picked a similar theme with illuminations :) Bye peri

8:36 am

8:36 am

To the PB, FM, for th5.

So that's really what's been on my mind today.

8:36 am

So we did, FM.

My icon today is an example of his calligraphy.

8:36 am

Better get on with my day. I'm halfway. cu all later.

8:36 am

Let's all send good vibes to MG's GF.

8:37 am

8:40 am

I must go and start dinner. BBL for final 44. Happy Babbling all.

8:41 am

sorry, i was reading about gustav

8:41 am

Bye jac

8:41 am

I am caught up in the news--Gustav and the GOP VP pick...

Walter is erasing me...

8:41 am

Is the zoom email addy still the one to use to reach you nut? And any of that rum left?

8:41 am

Off to the PB MG, plenty of goodies in there today.

8:44 am

8:44 am

LOL--no, i just found more and more words to get interested in...

Oh good, I could use some goodies. Wait... my friedn who interviewed me brought chocolates! I forgot! BRB!

8:45 am

make new (word) friends, but keep the old, one is silver (in french) and the other gold

8:45 am

That reminds of Girl Scout days, hurshy.

8:46 am

indeed, that is where i learnt it

8:46 am

did you also learn alice the camel?

8:46 am

Yippee, I passed halfway. Now, the bunnies need clean litterboxes. Bye everyone. Enjoy the day!

8:46 am

the french word for gold is a phantom

8:47 am

bye, scrabs!

8:48 am

if a certain sea dweller dwells on thoughts of death, is that merbid?

OK, back. Let's have a look at these chocolates...

OOOOHHHH, dark chocolate truffles rolled in coconut! And more...

8:49 am

Oh I say MG, they sound delish!

Leonidas. Very nice.

8:50 am

8:50 am

http://tinyurl.com/6dpchl

8:50 am

8:51 am

8:52 am

ok, somebody give a proper clue, i'm overly excited by medical terminology

8:53 am

at 11 - something that blocks up the arteries

8:54 am

OK, I'm searching. Thanks

8:54 am

back again... hi all (was on phone with VIP)

8:54 am

at11, at, four letters for a superman figure, finish with a descriptive five letter Aladdin type?

8:54 am

who is vip

8:54 am

Afternoon all or morning to some.

8:54 am

many of the long words end in the same two letters (third vowel and then third consonant)

8:55 am

VIP was the person i was talking about before, far too much kje

8:55 am

afternoon to you, hazmataz

8:55 am

wayne newton?

8:55 am

That's a new one - the hazmataz. I like it!

8:55 am

np - saw person before -

8:56 am

phantom: eyebr4

8:56 am

Hazamataz and Spangle - has a certain cachet to it, allbe it slightly glitzy :)

8:57 am

they could open for wayne newton!

8:57 am

Too much bling, do you think?

8:57 am

Only if you are wearing your wellies :)

8:58 am

No, no wellies. I think we could carry it off.

8:58 am

wellies are... rain boots?

8:58 am

i can't remember

8:58 am

Shortened wellingtons.

8:58 am

Yup the ones that come up near your knees

8:59 am

woohoo, i got it right!

8:59 am

thanks for the url, une

8:59 am

as opposed to galoshers (sp?)

8:59 am

galoshes

9:00 am

this is making me realize, i need some boots.

9:00 am

I'm never quite sure about galoshes - were they kind of temporary foot coverings?

9:00 am

Thank you, knew I was wrong somewhere

9:00 am

Then, hurshy, you need them at the right time. The shops here are full of them.

9:00 am

galoshes, as i understand it, can be put on OVER another pair of regular shoes.

9:01 am

10 points to hurshy

9:01 am

That was my understanding as well.

9:01 am

i always have loved the sound of that word. galoshes!

9:01 am

It's quite onomatopaeic

9:01 am

i want to start using it when people sneeze

9:01 am

I know - makes you want to splash through puddles wearing your galoshes.

9:02 am

Pfft, enough puddles and mini lakes round here today :(

9:03 am

True, galoshes are all very well in winter, not in August.

9:03 am

i got some very cute little froggie boots for my granddaugher with handles to pull up like fireman's boots and smiley frog faces on the toes... she loves splashing in them. wish i could call them galoshes

9:03 am

do they come in women's size 9, dor?

9:04 am

What fun Dorens.

9:04 am

will check for you hursh.

9:04 am

b ice

9:04 am

Handles sound much more fun than zippers.

Going to go take advantage of our last sunny day this year by sitting on the deck trying to read now. And then, wrenched back or no, it'll time to wash this monkey boy! Back later!

9:04 am

yes - http://www.amazon.com/Western-Chief-Wo mens-Frog-Rain/dp/B000I0K3CC

9:04 am

Hello swmbo :)

9:05 am

You gonna leave the chocs behind MG *pretty please* ?

9:05 am

awesome!

9:05 am

i could see you wearing them hurshy (funny,, since i don't know what you look like, but they seem like you)

9:05 am

Is this the lesser-spotted swmbo? The increasingly rarely seen babbler?

OK, OK, here they are.

*Poof*

9:06 am

Thank youuu!

9:06 am

It was such a fleeting glimpse HAz, we may never know.

9:07 am

A pity. I didn't get the binoculars out quickly enough.

9:07 am

Maybe she's using babble expert and doesn't know that her cover has been blown?

9:07 am

Are you gridded or gridding?

9:08 am

Gridding - at least until visitors arrive.

9:08 am

Once that happens, it looks churlish to type away...

9:09 am

weeelll, I guess so :)

9:09 am

It's on page 1 of the babble etiquette guide.

9:09 am

ttggggggyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyu

how can borg not be a word? i heard it on tv, it has to be a word

10:11 am

because biting more than once is chewing?

10:12 am

i don't think klingon would be allowed either

10:12 am

its short for cyborg jac

10:12 am

or bjorn?

10:12 am

well i tried kloingon too, but it's not on the grid lol

rebiting is not necessarily chewing... depends on how close the bites are together : )

10:13 am

think bacteria

10:13 am

if a dog bi4s you and then bi4s you again, hopefully that's not chewing...

10:13 am

and i am positive there is a huge lump of ice in this grid, but the dashed thing keeps sinking on me

10:13 am

thanks grant

10:13 am

depends if it bites the same area, the same area would def look chewed

i dunno, bite might be once of those actions that once it is done it cannot be "done" again in a strict sense

10:15 am

and apparently s**k be** isn't a word either **looks for a shuffle button at the bottom of the grid**

10:15 am

I have a friend with a 2 year old daughter who would disagree.... "chloe, did you bite your sister again?"

10:15 am

thankfully the habit seems to be broken

10:15 am

ooo a shuffle button. that would be great

10:16 am

3:45 pm

well, it used to be 18, but they are on about making it 21...

here in NC we received rain all day from fay - may parents live in charlotte & they were delugued

3:45 pm

I really need to know what it is in france... but no frenchies on it appears

all day yesterday i mean

3:46 pm

here they are talking about making it 18 again - LOL - funny aussie

3:46 pm

kje - was wondering if some elixir / mushroom moved people to munchkinland lol

there's the statue of liberty

lol

3:46 pm

hi i'm pini's daughter nyquil, she said i could play while dog sitting for her

arch de le trumph - sp?

lol

3:46 pm

shrinking age??? when osteoporosis sets in ; )

3:46 pm

3:46 pm

Hey Pini's daughter Nyquil..

3:47 pm

hi nyquil - finish the grid for her--- she is always waiting until the last minute - LOL

hey pink

hey auss

3:47 pm

who is that question for nance?

kje - drinking age is 16 in France but has to be accompanied by an adult!

they for you kje - lol

hey link

3:48 pm

that is what I thought lindy - a friend's 16 year old who is going to be spending this school year there was mentioning she will be legal drinking age there... wasn't sure if I believed her

can drink from 18 upwards unaccompanied

oopsie

hey lind

hi nance & everyone

3:49 pm

(Pini)...kje, you're being a smarty pants!!! lol

3:49 pm

no interest whatsoever nance... not a big celeb kind of person

3:49 pm

I knew you would be back and hear about it pini ; )

3:49 pm

ha!

the questions are for you kje - lol - had a typo - sorry

3:49 pm

kje.... It is 18 for France...

3:50 pm

I finished yesterday's grid before you did though!!!

3:50 pm

ty aussie

no aussie it is 16 for france if accompanied by an adult!!

hey pini - i called you pink mistakenly]

3:50 pm

true pinik - and feel free to hold that over my head FOREVER

3:50 pm

but, you can drink at 16 in a restaurant if accompanied by an adult !! or so the legal drinking law says !

3:50 pm

pini says its ok nance

3:51 pm

and she says she'll hold it against ya for just this one time

3:51 pm

I am surprised that UK is thinking of raising it to 21 - what brought that on?

3:51 pm

In Poland, there is no legal minimum age !!

kje - did i tell you to try to see an actual person?

3:51 pm

so...if a french kid is in US and drinks at 18...will they get arrested?

3:51 pm

Most likely the rise in alcohol related offences...

3:52 pm

confused nance....

I think they will have great difficulty in raising it though in the UK

3:52 pm

best to learn to respect it at meals

3:52 pm

yes, rules of where you are reign

lol kje - i am to - do you think we should just forget it? lol

3:52 pm

I dont know Lindy... Most likely...

3:53 pm

bbiab

3:53 pm

these kids have wine at home with meals anyway...just never out... she just thinks it will be nice to have wine with a meal out

you can get married at 16, have kids at 16, can own your own home at 18 in the UK i think they will have great difficulty

3:53 pm

here you are a legal adult in every way at 18...except drinking... you can own a gun, but not drink wine - ridiculous

3:54 pm

clue for he 6 please

i think it should be one age for everything!

3:54 pm

he 6 - donkey sound... and old comedy show in the 60s

3:54 pm

of course there are religious ceremony exceptions

3:55 pm

ty

3:55 pm

yw

by the age of 21 you could have been married 4 years and have 4 kids and owned your own home for 3 years but not allowed a drink!!! lol

i had my feelings hurt last week.

aaww how come nance?

oh i meant 5!! i can't count

3:57 pm

I agree lindy ,if you're old enough to derve in the military.marry,own property etc.you're old enought to drink.

3:57 pm

5 what?

3:57 pm

4:04 pm

nance, I can tell you I've seen other mothers go through same kind of things with their grown sons... my mother included...

i will - the only thing is my grandsons tug at my heart strings

hey nr

4:04 pm

i just read the chog portion with miley vs britney...hilarious!!!

4:04 pm

and sometimes you just have to realize it's okay to not like your family members, even your own kids

4:04 pm

hi nrk

4:04 pm

Hurricane warning from just **I think** east ? of High Island, right into Florida....

4:05 pm

hi all

hi nrk

thank y'all for your understanding

i refuse to feel guilty any longer.

4:06 pm

don't feel guilty nance *HUG*

4:06 pm

Nance... My friend at work is going through the same thing right now.... Mom, can you lend me this... Mom, can yoo lend me that.... Mom, can you spare me £500 to get the boiler fixed ?? Thats is what she has had for the last 5 weeks.....

4:06 pm

No guilt Nance, he should be feeling guilty for asking you all the time.....

nrk - you are so right - i feel bad when i get the feeling that i dislike my son

4:07 pm

I laugh with my mother when she starts complaining about one of my brothers now. I tell her, you raised 3 completely different children, and you're not to blame for any of our failings. We're all uniquely flawed.

i think a mother always feels responsible for her kids whatever age they are!

thanks y'all

i'll try my best to be stronger

4:08 pm

responsible, maybe, but not "at fault"

they do lind

4:08 pm

you can do it nance!!!

that is a fine line nrk!

4:08 pm

hello all, help with be7 please

4:11 pm

hey nance, do you exercise every day? (I didn't exercise at all until May)

nope - but zane (hubby) & i are going to start walking tomorrow

4:12 pm

the reason I ask is that I'm finding these days that I can go work out all of my bitterness and frustration in one 45 minute brisk walk, and suddenly I'm just happy with the world... it's a strange thing I never expected

4:12 pm

surprised no one said faith and be7

how wonderful for you sweetie - maybe that will work for us

4:13 pm

I'm walking 10 miles a day now, and I'm in such a good mood... just got kicked in the head by a guy I was dating, and I DON'T CARE... he's history

4:13 pm

no irish saying experts

4:13 pm

nDanLia, I was going to do that clue, but wasn't quite sure I'd get it right

4:13 pm

10 miles a day, wow, nrkii!

i've been on here forever & have only 11 words - LOLOL

4:14 pm

I walk every other day for 1/2 hour, thinking of increasing it to at least 45 minutes

4:14 pm

I've walked 12 so far today... weekends are good...

4:14 pm

too much chatting & not gridding nance

4:14 pm

for some reason I thought you were married nrkii

i would have to take an oxygen mask if i walked 10 miles - lol

4:14 pm

I've even started getting up early in the morning (which for me might as well be middle of the night) and walking before work

4:14 pm

where do you walk, nrkii

4:15 pm

no, 40 and single still

4:15 pm

I am much older than you nrkii and single too although men have lived with me in the past

4:15 pm

I live in Lambertville, NJ, which is right on the Delaware River, and there are great paths along the river, and fun streets on both sides with good shops and restaurants, so there's lots to see

i'm double nickles & been married 36 years

4:16 pm

that makes walking more fun, nrkii. I walk around my complex

4:16 pm

it will be tough when it gets cold, but I just got a Wii Fit for my 40th birthday so I'll hook that up and see what I can do indoors...

4:16 pm

I want a Wii Fit too

4:16 pm

nance, that's great that you've been married 36 years!

i want a Wii & then get a bowling game - lol

thank you nr

4:17 pm

you either have a really great guy or a big fat halo!

LOL - i have both

4:18 pm

one of the malls lets a group of older walkers in in the early am [pre-store opening] so they can walk around in hot or cold weather [but is organized around the inside perimeter]

that's cool of that mall to do that

4:21 pm

we6 and we5 pleaes

4:21 pm

*please*

4:21 pm

we 5 is "with moisture"

4:21 pm

great if you can get a few people together to walk or run etc - helps times pass & makes you less likely to not go

4:22 pm

we6---we+ not here but ****e

4:22 pm

we6 = rain, snow, etc, but drop 2nd vowel

4:22 pm

thanks for the we5

4:22 pm

thanks nrkii

4:22 pm

and pug

my mom is 84 & with me being the middle child, i believe we are finally getting closer. It's something special then an 84 year old mother tells you she couldn't stand the thought of me doing without. i'm supposed to tell her if i need anything. how sweet is that. ok course i wouldn't tell her. They will both be 84 in september & they need their money. i love them so much. but there are only certain things i can tell them because the last thing they need right now is to worry about me.

phew - that was a mouthful - lol

4:26 pm

I hear that nance,there is much I don't tell my Dad for the same reason...

4:26 pm

em6 please

4:27 pm

I'm upset that the Titanic-sinker is not in the grid

4:27 pm

which one peri?

4:27 pm

em6 - to come outside

they took very good care of me when i was a child & i wouldn't put that burden on them for anything in this world

4:27 pm

em6/24 please

4:27 pm

or... em + vowel + loud noise

4:27 pm

em+ the **d couple + not out

4:28 pm

the short name is nrkii

4:28 pm

thanks got the em6

4:28 pm

another new word for me

4:28 pm

going to read for a while, bbs

hey - i'm up to locating 16 words now - lol

4:28 pm

bye peri

bye peri

4:29 pm

nDan... yep, but I have been saying "Ice**** Dead Ahead!" for the last 5 minutes, and it's still not there

hey, peeps

4:29 pm

hi tyger!

greetings from Gustav country

hey, pug

hey tyger

hey, nance

no vid again. I wonder what happened to all the vids I sent lickety?

4:31 pm

hey tyger... how is the storm tracking?

or if the problem is something else??

hey, nrk, they're saying they think the track is moving slightly west

isn't "arow" a word?

4:31 pm

Hi, all!

it may go like Rita instead of Katrina?

hey jellen

hey, jellen

4:32 pm

so no evacuations in your area?

nance, no ar4 today

4:32 pm

2 words nance

oh, they're still counterflowing the main highways from the coast

IOW, all lanes north, and bumper to bumper

and half the shelters not open yet!!

4:33 pm

counterflowing... there's a new word for me

MS public broadcasting just took a call from a NOLA woman searching for a shelter - could hear kids in the car

and some gas stations already sold out

4:34 pm

there's fireworks for me!

hardly hearing any news, just all emergency info

yay, nrk

4:35 pm

I've got friends down in Slidell, but I don't know if they've evacuated yet

4:35 pm

yahooee nrkii!!

I'll hafta play the news later, when they've got it up online

ok - what section of the country is bad weather approaching?

Slidell? I know the name, but not where. how far from the coast?

4:35 pm

wow nother bid quake in china!

Hurricane Gustav is approaching the Gulf coast

4:35 pm

it's right near the Mississippi border, in LA

then they should have already evacuated

4:36 pm

it was direct in the path of Katrina.. they lost their house then

i hope the levees hold

Gustav *could be* worse than Katrina, some have said

I hope so too, nance

4:36 pm

the storm surge picked their house up off the pillars it was raised on and put it back down shifted a few feet, which was enough for the whole house to cave in

it's certainly bigger than Katrina!! :(

4:37 pm

well, not "cave in" but collapse and flood

4:38 pm

6.1 in china, same level as B.C. on 28th

4:38 pm

meanwhile, I'm in the middle of reading the book Isaac's Storm, which is about the Galveston hurricane of 1900... very creepy

4:40 pm

too many natural disasters in short time

4:40 pm

well, tyger, stay safe and as dry as possible

i lived in north myrtle beach, south carolina in the 90s & i went through a noreaster - 90 mph sustained winds. roofing shingles became arrows flying through the air & sticking into the sides of homes. Metal billboards were bent in half. My son was coming into my place of work & he grabbed the railing just in time. he is a big man (6'1" & 200 lbs). the wind blew his feet right out from under him & the only thing was the railing that saved him.

phew - that was a mouthful again

be save tyger

I'll do my best, nrk. I should be fine. I live in a brick apt bldg, on high ground, and it was fine thru Katrina

thx, nance

4:42 pm

new guinea had 6.3 yesterday

on phone with son, he's doing last minute grocery run for me

4:42 pm

take care everyone - I'm off to walk another few miles while the sun is shining

don't you take any chances ok?

I'm trying to persuade him to stay with me. he lives in a trailer

later, nrk

I won't, nance

4:44 pm

Bye, nrkii

wow, he waited too long. only brand wheat bread store had is kind I don't like :( apparently many people agree with me :P

he looked & looked. I've got a good, responsible son

not perfect, but I'm proud of him

4:47 pm

its so hard when it could change on a dime, but definitely not worth taking chances

ndan, we're sure to get a deluge of rain, no matter what. east side of storm always does

but there's a "hurricane alley" right up the MS-Ala line. that's where Katrina went north. rain wasn't too bad where I am that time - west side of storm

but if it goes west, we'll be on east side

most important after intensity is size, and Gustav is bigger

bk without a brb - just had a few choice words with my husband - he thinks i'm wrong about my son - that's because he was raised that way. i tried my best not to raise michael that way, but fathers seem to have more of an influence on sons - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

ok - back to finding words so i don't have to think of either of them.

big problem, nance?

or if you don't wanna talk about it, that's fine

i've had bigger but this one is getting close

4:51 pm

noaa predicts landfall 1pm monday

i don't mind - if he comes in, i'll flip screens - LOL

whre?

yeah, great Labor Day, and if it goes over/near us, great B-day Tues. :( :( :( - cos it moves slower over land

It's hard, but like everything else you learn to adjust. I do think twice about running any errands though.

hi all.... let's see, no, not smacking my spouse around and gas is 1.48 Litre

mich, do you have alternate transportation (bike?), or use public trans?

wb tyger

hey, moon

haven't been to Israel in over 30 years but it did seem there were far fewer cars on the road

thx, pug, nance. son was putting new batteries in mouse

hi tyger

5:58 pm

I;m a wheelchair user so public transportation isn't really an option for me, not yet anyway. I try to encourage my husband to use the bus when he can.

hey moon

sorry to hear that, mich

and now gotta leave again for 10 mins or so. back soon

6:42 pm

Hope you get control of the remote nance and enjoy the race tonight ;-)

6:42 pm

looks like it, jac!

6:43 pm

Hi MamaWa

i know - i've had two back surgeries - i was fine after my first one but fell 8 months later & had to have another surgery - i haven't been well since. zane was fired 2 weeks after he was diagnosed. now now pay or insurance - what a crock huh?

6:43 pm

in9 = to unite or become whole.

6:43 pm

You too speedfreak, enjoy

thx, mom.

lol mama - i'll do my best to control the race situation

6:43 pm

UGH, nance. (((HUGS)))))

6:43 pm

hi Mom

nance, have you talked to a lawyer?

ty pam

6:44 pm

that is awful Nance ((HUGS))

6:45 pm

Nance I'll keep good thoughts for you and hubby

there should be some recourse. I imagine that NC is a "right to work" (ugh, what a misnomer) state, like most southern ones, but there ought to be recourse of some kind, even if it's gotta be under federal labor law

wish I was in position to help you :(

yes - NC doesn't have a law that says a person can't be fired if they can't work. we signed up for unemployment to see if he can find a job that he can perform & if not, we will file disability.

ty mamam

better file disability right away. waits are now said to take years - if you can even get it

it really sucks doesn't it

?

PLEASE talk to a lawyer?

6:46 pm

Hubby and I count our blessings everyday that we have work and can pay the mtg, know so many friends and familiy struggling with work and health right now

I'd even try ACLU, if I were you

6:47 pm

and it is a struggle for us and daughter in college

6:47 pm

6:48 pm

:) Tyger

6:48 pm

hi peri

we will file - it does take a long time to go through the process. that's why we have to file for enemployment. we don't have a dime - we never thought that they would fire him. especially since he has a doctor's orders.

6:49 pm

thanks Mom

6:49 pm

Husband is on his way home from working a holiday Sunday just to keep ahead and I need to go watch the prerace for him and his fantasy league!! LOL I'll be in and out happy babbling and peace to all :0

jilli, I picked up the email. will try to get back to you later this evening. even if Gustav goes west as currently expected, storms could affect power

thank y'all so much for caring

nance, that's what this group is about, as far as most of us are concerned

I'll put you in my prayers

6:50 pm

Bye mamawa

6:50 pm

6:51 pm

amen tyger..bbl

6:51 pm

especially from all over the world!

everyone near the storm please take care and be safe

nance, would you please send me an email with a complete outline of your situation? I'll take that to my prayer group if you will

6:51 pm

nance, of course we care -- just wish we could help! Tyger's advice sounds good...

i sure will sweetheart. thank you.

jilli, the storm is starting to look like it may take Rita's track, rather than Katrina's, but it's MUCH larger, if not as strong. OTOH, lots of wind & rain

6:52 pm

I'll be watching the news avidly

6:52 pm

6:57 pm

time for me to go. Stay safe, Tyger. Nance, all the best to you. Hugs to all of you and I wish you all fireworks.

6:57 pm

coming up, jac -- twist of lemon?

i know tyger - both zane & i have it - i have never been a depressed person ntil all this happened - it began with me in 1994. This just happened a few months ago for zane. please don't think i'm a whiner - i'm not - i don't want people thinking that i am. God is great.

bye, (((mom)))

6:57 pm

Jilli - I guess you read in my blog that I saw two Babblets at the endangered species centre last week? A Tenrec and a Coati.

6:57 pm

{{tyger}} bye bye

6:57 pm

Yes please, jilli, and ice.

6:57 pm

LOL jac!

nance, I don't see how anybody could call you a whiner. you normally never say a word about your circs

6:58 pm

Night Mom.

6:58 pm

did not think you a whiner Nance... everyone needs to vent now and again

6:58 pm

I'll second that, nance

6:58 pm

7:00 pm

7:01 pm

A planet's path, peri.

thank all of you for your love & concern. I feel the same right back at you. sleep tight; and thank you again. :o)

Best way to do it, tyger. Otherwise you end up clueing and not doing.

7:04 pm

Yay! Imaginary fireworks!

thanks

7:10 pm

bbs

7:10 pm

LOL, tyger. My daughter once broke a fingernail at some event or other and it bled a bit. The medics there were so underworked about 6 of them crowded around her to 'help'. Did I LOL!

wow, 3 auction references. brought the file back, gotta use it.

it didn't hurt that she's pretty :D

7:11 pm

LOL, tyger. She was only about 9 or 10 at the time.

even better - little girls get attention

7:12 pm

Still, I guess if the worst thing they had to deal with that day was a broken fingernail it is reason to celebrate.

7:13 pm

It still makes me laugh though.

oh, yes. that's the best kind of event - no injuries

7:14 pm

Yes indeed.

7:15 pm

confession time -- I'm not even halfway and need lots of clues -- sure I'll be covered with fish -- am6/30 and 8/45?

only thing I still have to do to get ready for storm is fill water jugs.

7:15 pm

Crap ..

7:15 pm

That's lucky tyger. I take it you're not in its direct path?

7:16 pm

fill the bathtub, tyger :)

I do regret that I never got around to getting one of those "hot plates" that run on a cannister of propane

7:16 pm

What's up Torg?

7:16 pm

Ask away jill. It's fine.

bathtub won't hold water, jilli, dunno why.

7:16 pm

Plugged drain .. calling plumber ..

am6/30: adj related to single cell eukaryote am6 dysentery, frex

7:17 pm

am6/30 usually has an 'o' before the third letter. It's a type of dysentry.

no, tor, not plugged - leaks

7:17 pm

bummer, tyger. We used to do that in Quebec when expecting a storm -- got a rubber round mat sort of thing to put over the drain

am8: am5/12 + PT of consume food

7:17 pm

am8/45 is am5/12 + past tense of 'to consume'.

now that is a *definite* snap! :D

7:18 pm

You can use my tub, tyger ..It's going NOwhere ..

LOL, tor I think you're a bit far away

7:18 pm

ty tyger -- what a weird spelling of that term!

I'll just make sure to get my shower toni4 & stink till after, if necessary

7:19 pm

tyger - put some clingfilm, what do you call it there? saran wrap? around the bath plug. That should seal it to hold the water in.

7:19 pm

and ty too, jac :D

I don't really need that much H2O

and just realized a bunch of us belong in PB with jac

7:20 pm

Oh, I thought you needed stocks of water for a few days.

or did we?. no, I guess not

7:20 pm

Do you? We'll have a party in there then.

our water system was considered not safe for a couple of days, but never stopped running. And wasn't too contaminated for bathing, anyway.

7:21 pm

don't have the am5/12... hmmmm must look

I've got a bunch of plastic jugs. I'll fill them. that will take care of any conceivable need I'd have for up to 4 days

am5/12: alt spelling of desert chieftain

7:22 pm

thanks, tyger

yw, pam

7:22 pm

Alt. spelling for Arabian or African chieftain, pam. Or 'a' + m***, cute 'cat'. I saw those as the endangered species place, too.

7:23 pm

when we had a power outage our water pump from the well didn't work -- couldn't flush or anything, hence the bathtubfull came in handy

I live on city water/sewer, and this small city has pretty efficient administration, as far as I can tell

7:24 pm

power outage? That's a posh way of putting it. We call th4 power cuts.

7:25 pm

Is er8/55 a normal word?

7:25 pm

be7,48?

7:26 pm

we canucks is posh peepul

7:26 pm

Only if you're a sex therapist, Torg.

7:26 pm

Well ..

7:26 pm

It means zones like nipples, ear lobes etc. Diff. take on normal word.

7:27 pm

whee -- got that sexy er7 :D

7:27 pm

be7/48 - alt. spelling for Irish exclamation meaning 'by God!'

but only one hook in be7 - I've always seen it with 2

7:28 pm

Got it .. Thanks ... And say "nipples" again ..

um, jilli, that's an 8 :)

7:28 pm

thought the er was an 8, not a 7. Is there a 7, too, jilli?

7:28 pm

thanks, tyger

7:28 pm

same here, tyger, but jac warned us

7:28 pm

LOLOL, torgone

7:28 pm

LOL, Torg. NO! You naughty boy!

7:29 pm

I meant er8, pam -- sorry -- no er7

7:29 pm

Makes me think of the Hepburn line in the Lion in Winter...

7:29 pm

Thanks, jilli

I need to take a break from screen. eyes are starting to burn. later, all

7:30 pm

'Bye tyger.

7:30 pm

later, tyger! Fill a jug or two...

7:30 pm

Reminds me of a song .. Eburny Eyes ..

7:30 pm

ttfn tyger -- take care

7:30 pm

Which line was that, Pam?

7:31 pm

Ebony eyes?

7:31 pm

groan, torg <:-/

7:32 pm

why not, jac? Bet her name is Susan

7:34 pm

I bought a long brush (bottle brush type thing) for cleaning out the lint from the tumble dryer pipe. It's long and whippy looking and arrived on Friday whilst Beloved and my daughter were in the house. I 'whiiped' Beloved's buttocks with it for being late home and my daughter dashed upstairs, threw her over-knee black leather boots at me and said, 'At least wait until I've got out of the house!' Oh LOLOLOL.

7:34 pm

"I'd hang these from my nipples, but what would the children say"

7:34 pm

I must watch that film again, Pam. I don't remember that line.

7:34 pm

gracious, pam!

7:35 pm

Be7/48!

7:35 pm

LOLOL, jac

7:35 pm

Oh, I see -- only Kate could deliver that line

7:35 pm

All we intended to do was eat fish and chips and watch TV.

7:36 pm

be7/48 is the Irish exclamation, spelled differently.

7:36 pm

hi everyone, quite the interesting topic of discussion to walk in the middle!

7:36 pm

I know .. I was using it ..

7:36 pm

jilli - She was in my favourite film of all time, 'On Golden Pond'.

7:36 pm

Hi, lbd!

7:37 pm

I LOVED her, and many others, in Stage Door. One of my all time faves

7:37 pm

Hi lbd.:D

7:37 pm

Let's see, her, Eve Arden, Ginger Rogers, Lucille Ball...

7:38 pm

Oh, I used to love the Lucille Ball Show.

7:38 pm

Eve Arden, now that rings a bell. What was she in?

7:38 pm

love kate hepburn, African Queen, with bogie!

7:39 pm

There are so many memorable and quotable lines in On Golden Pond that you don't know where to be5/18 with 'em.

7:39 pm

lbd - PB for you. You said a bo word.

7:39 pm

hope there's chocolate in the pb.

7:40 pm

Eve Arden, our miss brooks.

7:40 pm

Well, she was in that tv series with Kaye Ballard, the mothers in law

7:40 pm

I'm sure this is, lbd.

7:40 pm

she was the principal in Grease

7:40 pm

there is, I meant.

7:41 pm

Mildred Pierce... The Marx bros At the Circus, Our Miss Brooks

7:42 pm

That's what I know her from Pam, Mildred Pierce.

7:42 pm

I loved her...

7:43 pm

Never realised she was in Grease. Was probably too busy ogling Travolta's sexy eyes and chin dimple.

7:43 pm

LOLOL, jac!

7:44 pm

if I told you I kinda liked Stockard Channing, would you be surprised?

7:44 pm

Even though he's older and fatter now (aren't most of us?) he's still got 'IT'.

7:44 pm

LOLOLOLOLOLOL, jac. he has capital P presence!

7:44 pm

No Pam, I wouldn't be even slightly surprised.

7:44 pm

8-), jac

7:47 pm

last word, first th5/20 please

7:47 pm

I once had a thing for the actress who played Bea in the French version of Emmanuelle with Sylvia Kristal.

7:47 pm

Kate in the Philadelphia Story -- "The Calla lilies are in bloom...". I now have Calla lilies and say that every year in my best Kate accent, lol

7:47 pm

7:48 pm

7:48 pm

th5/20 is like what ice does when it melts but with a consonant thrown in.

7:48 pm

Don't know her name, pam.

7:54 pm

Glynis was in a TON of movies!!!!

8:00 pm

Hey, it worked for me.

8:00 pm

brb

8:00 pm

Maybe it was Dietrich I was thinking of ..

8:01 pm

Yes, jilli, but I'm more tuneful than she was.

8:01 pm

Lauren Bacall . .Rowr!

My Dietrich is legendary though. *grins* Falling in love again, never wanted to....

8:05 pm

hey lbd, jac, pam

8:05 pm

Pam - in a forum, now defunct, that I used to be on, we had an on-line imaginary pub and one of my characters in there was called Ms. Furcoat. She was Marlene.

8:06 pm

Phantom....icebe4/8

8:06 pm

Another character I played in there was called Almita Mansoon. The new owners of the site, a TV company who removed our chat areas, still haven't seen the pun and still send e-mails to 'Almita' about who's joined the site.

8:06 pm

Very cool, jac!

8:06 pm

The last re6?

8:07 pm

well hello almita

8:07 pm

LOLOL, jac

8:07 pm

Say the name out loud if you don't get it.

8:07 pm

8:07 pm

Last re6 is to get together with again.

8:07 pm

am5?

8:07 pm

8:08 pm

Lex - I met one, not long after I started chatting on that defunct, not a dating, site.

8:08 pm

TY, Jac.

8:08 pm

AM5 is an eastern ruler

8:11 pm

8:11 pm

8:12 pm

8:12 pm

am8 = am5 + past tense of 'to consume'.

8:12 pm

Almita Orange

8:13 pm

OY, jac. That is funny. Great name to get all kinds of responses, though!

8:13 pm

Is that a phone, a fruit or a fashin designer, lex?

8:14 pm

Pam - I didn't meet Beloved under that name. I met him under my own maiden name.

8:15 pm

someone was asking about names that would sound good with Orange as the last name

8:15 pm

I didn't reply to the man asking about me being an Asian girl either.

8:15 pm

Jaffa would be a good one, Lex.;)

8:16 pm

Oh, i figured that, jac. Both that you met current beau as yourself adn that you ignored that dumb post!

8:18 pm

We did have fun one that site though, playing all sort of characters in the 'pub's' nightly show. (We all knew who we really were, though I did give a couple of people near heart attacks one night when I went in as Vince Furnival (Alice Cooper).

8:18 pm
