12:21 am

12:22 am

I think you can still register, mlf, but you better hurry.

12:22 am

got your clue(s). lore, thanks, and another fl8 related

12:23 am

in Groundhog Day, the insurance guy tells Phil 'Oops, that was a do5/26'

12:23 am

but its not the same type of registration, does state mean you are votiing for pres as well or rather are able to ?

12:23 am

back to ER

12:24 am

in Montana once you're registered you get a ballot with president, governor, senator, etc.

12:24 am

If you register, you can vote in any elction, local state, federal

12:25 am

ah ok ty bzz and harp

12:25 am

it is compulsory voting here- if you don't vote you get fined

12:25 am

its compulsory to be on the kiwi electoral role but you dont have to vote

12:25 am

no kidding sandy? i like that!

12:25 am

at least it forces everyone to think

12:26 am

Well that settles that sandy. Us Americans aren't good at thinking.

12:26 am

on7

12:26 am

didn't mean it like that , lol

12:27 am

Pigeonman, I've known you too long to agree that you don't think???

12:27 am

That was a joke sandy. No offense was taken or meant. :-)

12:27 am

Kiwi, i have been trying to find an UN 7 no luck yet

12:27 am

hi there geek lol

12:27 am

HI to all!

12:27 am

Ah Geek. Was that a compliment?

12:27 am

of course pigeon!

12:28 am

its not what you would call a normal word lol

12:28 am

Almost... You've known me too long for that :-)

12:28 am

kia ora geek happy babbling

12:28 am

Geek. Did you watch the football game. Did you hear that explosion coming from Virginia?

12:28 am

kiwi i had a feeling lol

12:28 am

hi all...late to flip...

12:29 am

I'm playing catch-up... Are you saying Gregg is not a happy person???

12:29 am

hi there pini

12:29 am

Amen to that. SC got the rear ends handed to them by OSU.

12:29 am

ok im off home see you all in about 15 min

12:30 am

ok kiwi take care sus

12:30 am

pige what explosion?

12:31 am

pigeon-we are thinking of getting a couple of geese-will they chase me??

12:31 am

That was a joke between Geek and I. One of our oldest friends is a big USC football fan. They lost tonight and he lives in Virginia.

12:31 am

sandy i have heard they bite

12:32 am

rotfl

12:32 am

rotfl

12:32 am

pige i am waiting for the NFL football game sunday afternoon

12:32 am

the one next door chased me when i went to visit our neighbour- you have never seen anyone jumping a gate so fast!

12:32 am

Sandy. That depends on the type of geese. Generally they won't chase members of their family. If you are worried about it, just get a couple of females. They are not aggressive unless they have babies.

12:33 am

Which one MLF?

12:33 am

it had its wings spread and its mouth wide open!!! lol

12:33 am

pige redskins vs cowboys\

12:33 am

What is a good type pige

12:34 am

Although I like a bit of drama!

12:34 am

I have Embdens. They are the pure white ones. Big geese but generally pretty nice.

12:35 am

Has anyone called the 8's?

12:35 am

pige, do you breed them, eat their eggs, eat them....or just pets?

12:36 am

fl8 x 2 pigeon

12:36 am

Mostly just pets. I eat the eggs though. Pretty good watchdogs. People are afraid of them even though they shouldn't be.

12:37 am

lore's icon is clever

12:38 am

I love the ones next door they have a lot of character but I always go out there with my neighbour but they have the measure of my jack russels which is funny

12:38 am

The jacks won't go near them

12:39 am

Ah. Thanks Lore.

12:39 am

yw pigeon

12:39 am

Pigeonman, Just had a system crash. I'm on a backup laptop... I get to rebuild the other one tomorrow. Good think I backup data :-)

12:40 am

I have a Jack Russell also Sandy.

12:41 am

Ours are fantastic little dogs and very obedient and clever- we can even trust them with our chooks

12:41 am

Crap Geek. If my computer crashed, I'd have to order a new one. I'd have to rig my skeet launcher so that it would have a computer basket. :-)

12:42 am

uh oh the horse in on the verandah eating the pony nuts!!

12:43 am

That's why I'm a geek I work with them and allso teach part time at one of the local colleges...

12:44 am

horses are strong he picked up the bag and trotted off with it- but everything under control now!!

12:44 am

When did you get a Jack??? I thought Donald and Daisy were good enough watchdogs

12:44 am

Hi folks! good day Kiwi!!

12:47 am

1:14 am

mum sent me a chrissie cake she baked and customs had been all through it

1:14 am

fully insured up to $200 and 7-10 days. if i had sent it via s low boat to china it would have been only $6 cheaper so wasnt worth it

1:15 am

1:28 am

I will, sandy! But I remember MonkeyG saying that Walter was really sick for 6 weeks, and took 2 more weeks to really recover. So it seems we go through it faster, maybe because we are older.

2:09 am

nothing bad just an accident that needed tending too

2:09 am

another hair cutting session?

2:09 am

not another fright from the girls i hope

2:09 am

bangkok oriental setting where the city dont know what the city is getting. The creme de la creme of the chess world in show with everything but yul bryner

2:10 am

chess!

2:10 am

the bars are temples but the pearls ain't free...

2:10 am

no peed pants from laughing and she didnt have her depends on

2:10 am

so it would be warm bed linens w/ flowers

2:10 am

its a drag its a bore its really just a pity

2:11 am

aw, lots of work, mel, but at least it was fun :)

2:11 am

how did the visits go mel?

2:11 am

I can hear an angel sliding up to me...

2:12 am

I didn't poof yet -- here's an improved version of my weak attempt at a clue icon

Oh Mel that is funny within its self. Poor love

2:12 am

went well they go for a sleep over tommorow night

2:12 am

you better go back to your bars your temples your massage palours

WOW. I just saw a baby pic of the second youngest of the siblings. She looks like me

2:12 am

jilli, cute one!

2:12 am

2:12 am

lucky child

2:13 am

2:13 am

mr ed's successor jilli

She has the curls like i do. Oh Meliae what will you do

2:13 am

I hope it is all gonna turn out well, mel. Lots of changes for you and the girls.

2:13 am

is it bad that I feel a bit of relief even tho I will miss them?

2:13 am

2:14 am

of course that is not bad. You have to do this for your health, so it must have been way too heavy for you to do, even though you love doing it. Sounds normal to me that there should be bit of relief as well as grief.

Meliae as much as you love or care for them you can't do it forever

2:15 am

my kids are glas as it will mean I can go visit them more often without having to hire baby sitters and all that stuff

2:15 am

When April showers come my way, they bring the flowers that bloom in May

2:46 am

Poor old Johnny Ray Sounded sad upon the radio, he moved a million hearts in mono. Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them. Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever. Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye and we can sing just like our fathers.

2:46 am

You're my angel My sun up in the sky We've been through hell and back together Why you wanna leave me now

2:47 am

Ahh, there was a stoopid 7 stumping me in that o. Now I can relax, bottom row greyed, because I can only set the screen to see top 16 squares...

Sprite my dear YEs. He moved 20 tonn of stock about the warehouse. Started at 7am today just walked in

2:47 am

yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away, that is where i hope they stay

2:47 am

woot Lori

2:47 am

heres one for Haz i always think of this song for herThere's a tear in your eye, And I'm wondering why, For it never should be there at all. With such pow'r in your smile, Sure a stone you'd beguile, So there's never a teardrop should fall. When your sweet lilting laughter's Like some fairy song, And your eyes twinkle bright as can be; You should laugh all the while And all other times smile, And now, smile a smile for me. Chorus When Irish eyes are smiling, Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring. In the lilt of Irish laughter You can hear the angels sing. When Irish hearts are happy, All the world seems bright and gay. And when Irish eyes are smiling, Sure, they steal your heart away. For your smile is a part Of the love in your heart, And it makes even sunshine more bright. Like the linnet's sweet song, Crooning all the day long, Comes your laughter and light. For the springtime of life Is the sweetest of all There is ne'er a real care or regret; And while springtime is ours Throughout all of youth's hours, Let us smile each chance we get.

2:47 am

lol nDan

Sprite my dear YEs. He moved 20 tonn of stock about the warehouse. Started at 7am today just walked in

But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

2:55 am

oh lovely, sandy! Am happy for you.

2:56 am

good lines, Kiwi. Don't know the song, but great lines.

2:56 am

And when the sun descended and the night arose I heard my father cursing everyone he knows He was dangerous and drunk and defeated And corroded by failure and envy and hate There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees

2:56 am

Kiwi you are a little ray of sunshine

2:57 am

2:57 am

There was a beauty living on the edge of town And she always put the top up and the hammer down And she taught me everything Ill ever know About the mystery and the muscle of love The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow Im in the back seat with my julie like a romeo And the signs along the highway all said, caution! kids at play!

thanks lore and lori

3:53 am

Holy cow. I'm only missing one r. I'm impressed!

3:54 am

well done lori i have been a fool like most times and left the rs to last

3:56 am

sorry about sparkies and running had a bad dreamer =)

3:56 am

eww I did the r's first once I got the list I despise them lol

3:58 am

everything okay now?

3:58 am

yep all is well in the world once more

3:59 am

lots of bad dreams and temper tantrums lately it is trying times for all of us

4:00 am

when they know they are leaving you this must unsettle them surely Mel?

4:00 am

yes these lsat 2 that are going now Ihave had for just over a year so its hard on them

4:01 am

I only have 1 7 out of all those r's. Is there perhaps another big one I'm missing?

4:01 am

at least they will be going together and the couple who they will go with are long term caregivers so they should be there a long time

4:01 am

only one 7 in that mess Lori

4:02 am

well i guess thats a good thing they will be together

4:02 am

Dang. So much for that theory then. Thanks muchly meliae.

4:03 am

They have been together for I think 6 years their caseworker is trying hard to keep them together

4:04 am

I was only suppose to be temporary for them and they knew that, I always stress that when I have them for short term, it just ended up they stayed longer than we had orginally thought

4:05 am

it must be so sad to see them go after a year

4:05 am

Elsie the one I adopted of course will stay, and I am thinking about applying to adopt Mary too, but I am not sure about her other family members, they dont want to take care of her, and yet I bet they will fight me if I try to adopt her

4:07 am

Mel do the girls family Marys family visit?

4:07 am

now off to the Rs lol

4:07 am

Mary is pretty much self sufficent she works and can take the bus by herself. She just needs someone to remind her to take her meds, and she cannot cook too forgetful

4:07 am

getting out the monkeys kiwi did it so i can at least try

4:08 am

no they dont she goes to their house for holidays but it is only for the day no over night stays

4:08 am

your one in a million billion Mel hugs

4:08 am

I've ignored the f. Guess I have no choice now, to conclude the first sweep. :/

4:09 am

they have younger kids and she is not good around kids at all, she gets jealous and hits so that is why they cannot have her in thier home

4:09 am

i didnt have any problems with the Fs clues for 2 x 8 and 1 x7 in my icon LoriP

4:10 am

so they shouldnt have a problem with your adopting then?

4:10 am

mary is the one that is 22 my youngster as I like to call her

4:10 am

Ahh, so that's where the 8's are. Thanks for the first 2 letters lore.

4:11 am

well i hope all goes well for you and mary Mel

4:11 am

yw loriP

4:11 am

I dont know Lore I am going to kind of ask and see how they react, I can offer her so much more if I am her legal guardian, rather than just a caregiver for her

4:12 am

If they wont let me adopt her, then I am going to have to tell them that they need to look for someone else

4:13 am

or at least if they wont let me adopt her then some kind of guardianship so I can sign for stuff for her

4:13 am

sounds fair mel but i cant imagine them refusing after all they should be pleased that Mary is with someone who will care for her

who knew that the fu**** word for more enjoyable activities was actually a word.

4:14 am

hi there red

4:15 am

she is not through the state we have a private agreement, and so I get no help from the state, they pay me ok, and she gets social security which they pay me out of that, her money she gets for her working is all hers.

4:16 am

I cannot even sign for medical for her The dr's office knows the background so I dont have to worry about that, but if she was ever hurt bad and I had to take her to the hospital I cannot sign the papers

4:16 am

i keep trying for words that are to do with interment!!!

4:17 am

oh dear very tricky i see your problems have you discussed these with the bio parents?

4:17 am

4:19 am

I'm going to work in a few min myself Deeha.

4:19 am

red we were looking for you yesterday we have a Babbler with a 34yr old daugther and she wanted to know more about fusion of bones can she email you on the email on your profile ?

I dont know that my email is on my profile...I might not know too much about bone fusion!!!

but yes... its htaggart@gmail.com

4:20 am

sorry i was going to add that question

4:20 am

thankyou red

YW lore...

4:21 am

thanks so much Red shes in a quandry and no medical people here

I am just feeling ok today about my bank, since it has yet to fail....

4:22 am

her name is sandy she lives here in western australia i will ask her to add babbler to her email thanks so much Red

I am actually considering putting some of my money into an under the mattress fund.

scrabbler mught know more about it as she is a Pediatrician.

4:23 am

hey

4:23 am

Wouldnt that make your mattress very high red?!!! Bit like the princess and the pea!!!

LOL Deeha, if I had that much maybe, but...I dont have that mucch.

4:24 am

me neither!!

4:26 am

scrabbler suggested she get a lot of opinions before going ahead

that sounds like a good idea for anything. Is she thinking about having her spine fused?

4:27 am

i am not up on all the details i seem to recall its a shoulder

oooh then I agree with Scrabbler, lots of opinions and a long trial of Physical Therapy.

Ok I must head off to work...

4:29 am

thanks red enjoy your day and dont forget to get your money out while its still there hugs

4:31 am

hah, found the last r. Not bad for me, on the first sweep. 29 left.

4:32 am

Thanks lore for the profile clue. I'd never have gotten those without a nudge.

4:34 am

hi i'm here again and have been reading the log

4:35 am

red it is suggested she have shoulder fusion and I am trying to find out more about it. she cannot have physio as the shoulder is too damaged and we have been to lots of orthos

4:36 am

I will put my email on my profile anyone is welcome to email me about it or anything

4:37 am

whatever we decide there will be no rushing into it. knowledge first - action later

4:37 am

sandy did you get reds email from the chat

4:38 am

no but I will look back and get it-thanks lore

4:39 am

for now its masterchef and this

4:39 am

sandy htaggart@gmail.com

4:40 am

okay out of here unless someone needs a clue anyone??

4:40 am

got it

4:41 am

see you next time sandy take care

4:41 am

ciao Babblers have fun see you all next time

4:41 am

you too

4:42 am

half way yippee and that's enough for now see you later

4:51 am

hello, hello

4:51 am

gran did you get my email

4:52 am

yes sandy, have responded. hope it was helpful.

4:52 am

haven't looked but i will now thanks

4:57 am

thanks for that rose- she cant swim as she does not have enough movement- she can't even hang out the washing

4:58 am

y

4:58 am

we have been to 4 orthos and she has been a case study -its beginning to look like fusion is the only answer but i want to talk to someone who has had it done.

4:58 am

sandy, i suggest hydrotherapy. it gradually increases your range of movement, while building strength

4:59 am

d

4:59 am

she cant even have physio as there is too much damage but I will try to talk her into some pool work- just doing anything would be good for her mind I think

5:00 am

I will go with her, some pool work would be good for anyone including me!

5:01 am

sandy, i'll ask around. i have a lot of surgeon friends, they will be able to help, with some suggestions, i'm sure. will email you with what i find out.

5:01 am

I really appreciate the email and suggestions rose, thankyou

5:02 am

yw sandy. ;)

5:02 am

one thing is that we are not rushing into anything-knowledge before action is my motto

5:03 am

bbl, dinner ready. sandy email me please, and keep in touch.

5:03 am

she has had three ops on that shoulder and 3 on the other one

5:06 am

sorry to interupt...don't know what is wrong with the person..but if she has limited movement then hydrotherapy will help heaps...I have scoliosis and just walking up and down the pool relaxes, refreshes and HELPS HEAPS

5:09 am

diz, I agree with you and I will try to get her to go, she has a bad shoulder and they are suggesting fusion -she is only 34

5:10 am

I feel above anything else it would be good for her mindset

5:10 am

and don't be sorry to interupt all input is appreciated

5:11 am

sorry to be a bearer of bad news, but I don't believe in fusion...wanted to do that to me cos of my spine...NOWAY cos no guarantee mobility afterwards

5:13 am

fusion is a last resort and we know it will inhibit movement -it is shoulder fusion not spine- and they are suggesting it to combat the pain she has

5:13 am

Oh OK then

5:14 am

they guarantee loss of mobility but she has very little of that anyway

5:14 am

Hey there

5:14 am

hello peach

5:15 am

Oh, well, sorry bout that . Anyone have a clue for zo6-36 please? Thanks

5:15 am

Hi sandyloo

5:15 am

I haven't got that so any clues would be appreciated here as well

5:15 am

hello room

5:15 am

hello gilly

5:16 am

hiya

5:16 am

gilly where is your icon?

5:16 am

it's been months since i was here i think?

5:17 am

do i need to change my pic you mean?

5:17 am

sandyloo, I sort of started at the bottom.

5:17 am

the zo4-9 is an area...if that helps get you started on the zo's.

5:18 am

no, not at all, I mean where is the photo taken? sorry!

5:18 am

my regular site has closed down i think

5:18 am

have got all the zs except the zo6

5:18 am

it's at lysterfield lake park,victoria

5:18 am

looks lovely

5:18 am

i took it with my new camera

5:19 am

Yes, sandyloo.

5:19 am

it is,it's beautiful

5:19 am

lol, I'm such an egg, I can't do clever things like that yet

5:20 am

take a photo and end up with it as an icon

5:20 am

it's easy lol

5:20 am

ooh, just realised i have a crack in my wine glass

5:24 am

Sandy, I had a frozen shoulder and went to physio, the chiropractor and an orthopedic surgeon all to no avail then I tried scalp acupuncture. I had immediate results and after approx 8 treatment the shoulder was "unfrozen". Worth a try.

5:25 am

Thanks Di, but she has had 3 operations on her shoulder and none have really been successful. She started with lots of dislocations so it is a different problem- she has had bone transplant and screws etc.

5:26 am

no cartilage left and little muscle

5:29 am

I don't know if there is a acupuncturist around you that practices this but it is really amazing what results/pain reduction this kind of treatment can give.

5:31 am

Actually, acupuncture is something i haven't tried. I think it would be worth a try so we will. Much appreciated.

5:32 am

No drugs and nothing to lose

5:33 am

The guy I go to puts the needle in the top of your head - he says that is the place of you "well memories". I know it sounds a bit far out but I personall say a paralized stroke patient stand after one treatment.

5:34 am

*saw*

5:35 am

5:35 am

Got to go now - need to get something to have for dinner and get home. Bye.

Hi/bye Dianne

5:37 am

5:37 am

G'd morning again Babblers. Let's see if fresh eyes will give me my last 22. Or not.

5:38 am

HAve only just entered babbleworld myself, been busy with work and htings.

5:38 am

lol lori i'm trying to do without any lists so i have 78 left

5:38 am

Obviously bushing up on my typing skills is not one of them! Hello Lori :)

5:39 am

Sme here sandy. The last 22 are the worst.....

5:39 am

I can't find my remote so I am stuck on the cooking channel

5:39 am

Hi FM. Trying to take over my typo Presidency?

5:39 am

Yesterdays grid was such a stinker! Hope todays is kinder.

5:39 am

get out of town Lori!! I will be needing the lists soon!

5:40 am

Nice try Lori but I was typing rubbish long before you came on the scene.

5:40 am

very soon

5:41 am

Yesterday's was poopy! Fun, but poopy.

5:41 am

The cooking channel is a trap-I want food!

5:41 am

Could you not just get up and change the channel *grin*?

5:42 am

hmm that sounds too technical

5:42 am

***Good thing she's not watching theadultery channel*** :D

5:42 am

lol

5:42 am

LOL I have never tried to do that

5:42 am

LOL Lori!!!!

5:42 am

I couldn't resist saying it out loud.

5:43 am

I am having a good laugh

5:43 am

but I'm still wanting seared scallops

5:43 am

I wouldn't be surprised if you said there really was an adultery channel -sigh of cynicism.

5:44 am

Sadly, that crossed my mind too FM.

5:44 am

There is an adult channel but you have to pay extra...LOL

5:44 am

Scallops look wonderful but I am allergic to them and mussels and all molluscs :(

5:45 am

I'll just have to try and make my life into the adult channel

5:45 am

That's cruel FM.

5:45 am

Found out I was allergic the hard way.

5:45 am

That is mitch, I love seafood

5:45 am

that can be dangerous Mitch

5:46 am

I'm allergic to housework. Found that out the easy way.

5:46 am

Crab, lobster, praws etc all fine and yummy and all fish too.

5:46 am

LOL Lori, I have the same complaint- when I got married I couldn't understand why my bed wasn't made

5:47 am

There she goes with the housework word again - I think it should be banned!

5:47 am

When I had my first baby, I couldn't understand why the world is overpopulated

5:48 am

and how many children do you have?

5:48 am

4, and I still can't understand

5:49 am

LOL!

5:49 am

I tried to get the orphanage to take them but no luck!

5:49 am

*** snicker ***

5:49 am

I keep locking mine out but somebody gave them a key.

5:50 am

I think Mother Nature is our ememy

5:50 am

I have to look for the remote!

5:50 am

I allergic to children too ;)

5:50 am

LOL

5:51 am

lol, when my 4th started school, there were crying Moms, and I was over the moon, waving good bye, saying have fun, and practically break dancing. Didn't go over well with the tearful moms.

5:51 am

lolol FM. Smart woman!

5:52 am

*tries to imagine Lori breakdancing*

5:52 am

Surely you don't have more than four Lori!

5:53 am

4 was all we couldn't afford, so we stopped there.

5:53 am

We had two then a break of 7 years then two more- I tell everyone "same father and we're not Catholics"

5:54 am

20, 13, 8, and 7. I never was very organized.

5:55 am

mine are 38, 34, 26 and 24

5:55 am

3 girls and a boy

5:56 am

I like them sometimes but they get much more expensive with age!

5:56 am

Opposite, 3 boys and a girl.

5:57 am

Not so surprisingly, i STILL need 22 words

5:57 am

When I complain, my daughter Diana says "too bad, it's the circle of life"

5:57 am

LOL Lori - I need 78

5:58 am

6:08 am

Diana had a Welsh Cob - He lived to 34 - we had him put down last year - he was an amazing jumper

6:08 am

6:08 am

G'd morning Scrabbler, jbv anyone I missed.

6:08 am

jbv think of what you get when you strike a match

6:08 am

6:09 am

Hahaha, FM, I just had to say that.

It is too early for "clever" for me.

6:10 am

Thanks kje. :)

6:10 am

If I dissapear suddenly it is becuase the guy has arrived to price clearing my garage out of all the stuff in it

6:10 am

6:11 am

6:19 am

See ya' in a bit FM

6:19 am

Oh, no. Pillow fight. There will be feathers all over soon and who is going to clean up the mess. And if you girls have sticky hands from breakfast (maple syrup, jam) then it will be even worse.

6:19 am

6:19 am

Bye FM

6:19 am

FM started it.

6:19 am

I think I will get an adult from the border collie rescue, I have been approved by them to adopt.

I need to get breakfast and get ready for my tennis match. I will be back this afternoon. Bye all. Enjoy the day!

6:21 am

Later Scrabbler!

6:22 am

Gail, that is a good idea but be sure it doesn't have problems-often borders can have behaviour problems

6:22 am

enjoy, scrabbler

6:22 am

I have behavior problems sometimes too.

6:23 am

Lucky for me, I don't (being perfect)

6:23 am

Haha, Sandy. **I am having a difficult time leaving Babble Land**

6:23 am

good morning

6:24 am

It's an evil trap scrab

6:24 am

Hello Sukee

Hi and bye sukee, I have to go now even though I want to stay here. Bye friends!

6:25 am

G'd morning Sukee

6:29 am

Ack. Still 93 to go

6:30 am

6:30 am

Gail if that is the case you will be fine, you are obviously a doggy person

6:30 am

Husband has found the remote and is watching a violent war blokey movie

6:31 am

Queenie taught me a lot. Before her I had a cocker, a bassett and a retriever mix. Now I want to stay with border collies.

7:21 am

LOL Katie

7:21 am

Now, I like George, but there's no way I'd get any sort of tattoo!

7:22 am

I had an ex who called me chubster as my nickname, thank goodness he's an ex

7:22 am

Haz, Hope, husband also has a good time with the 'cows' seminar, and that both of you have a good flight to and from home.

my BF calls me PGOP...says it stands for Prettiest Girl On the Planet ;)

7:23 am

Thanks lil - have a good day at work.

7:23 am

Now that is a good moniker EvaN, he is a keeper!

7:23 am

Eva , that's lovely.

7:23 am

Bye lil :)

7:23 am

He's not particularly looking forward to the conference, but he has to put in so many hours annually of CPD (continuing professional development)

7:23 am

That is fantastic eva

7:23 am

i call him bebe

7:23 am

bye all *poof*

7:24 am

***This excessive happiness is very depressing***

7:24 am

Is the conference for two days Haz or will you get to spend some time together exploring London?

7:24 am

Ba humbug then Lori ;)

7:24 am

You want some angst instead?

7:24 am

Haz, How will you recognize eachother - will it be Mitch's red moustache or your blue hair

7:24 am

lori -- if it makes you feel better, in addition to "bebe" i also sometimes call him "stinkynuts" LMAO

7:25 am

ROFL sandy

7:25 am

Katie, the conference lasts two days but he's only going for the Saturday. We'll get to eat out this evening but not much time for sightseeing together.

7:25 am

Now 'yer talkin' Eva! :) Yes please Haz, angst on wry would be nice.

7:25 am

or perhaps your matching peg legs

7:26 am

Haz, keep your eyes open in London, you may see George, he is often in London filming etc.. If that happens expect to see you on the News. ''Woman flings herself at George, with some sort of grid in her hands''

7:26 am

Wear blue eye shadow, smeared on. It'll ehlp you locate each other.

7:26 am

Well you have a fantastic time anyway Haz, we will all be thinking of you meeting up tomorrow morning

7:26 am

elder - let's not get her overexcited now!!

7:26 am

We will be looking forward to the results next week

7:26 am

Blue eye shadow? The Cartland look revived?

7:26 am

*Thinking Haz might be a liability now*

7:26 am

matching pekes

7:27 am

It's highly recognizable. Very trendy, so I hear.

7:27 am

hello LoriP and Katie.

7:27 am

*Thinking I'll know what's going on if FMitch tries to ditch me somewhere*

7:27 am

Babble tatoos on foreheads?

7:27 am

FM - I would be very worried if I were you after elder's post

7:27 am

::)

7:28 am

Of course sandy - don't we all have that already .... oh don't tell me I am the only one that did it :(

7:28 am

Both carrying Thesauri

7:28 am

Gotta go, everyone have a lovely weekend, especially Haz & FM, see you on monday to hear all about it :-)

7:28 am

haz just needs to take spangle. while haz is just SO un-unique, spangle is recognizable anywhere!!

7:28 am

I never leave home without a couple in my bag.

7:28 am

is Spangle a Peke?

7:28 am

See you Katie!

7:28 am

Bye Katie!

7:28 am

Later Mrs Katie.

7:29 am

Bye Katie.

7:29 am

Spangle a peke? Perish the thought!

7:29 am

Oh dear I think you had better change yr icon Haz back to the glittery one pronto!

7:29 am

Both wearing spandex mini skirts?

7:29 am

I think I should.

7:29 am

Somebody take sandyloo's temperature. I think she's feverish.

7:30 am

Sandy, whilst Haz is coughing with that thought.. to clarify Spangle is a Spaniel.

7:30 am

She's been on your cooking sherry I think!

7:30 am

Just trying to work out the recognition process

7:30 am

***tiptoes back out, waves good bye to all, and hopes Haz and FM have a great meeting***

7:31 am

Bye Lori hugs

7:31 am

Bye Lori!

7:31 am

Bye LoriP. have a good day.

7:31 am

Both not wearing any makeup

7:31 am

<----------- refresh. Now, does that look like a Peke?

7:32 am

No make-up? At my age?

7:32 am

no, neither George or Spangle:)

7:33 am

sandy I hate to disappoint your creativeness but we both know what the other looks like

7:33 am

Looks just like a peke to me!

7:33 am

LOL You will have to be sure or you might accost a stranger

7:33 am

and I have no probelm with her 'issues' and she does not feel that my two heads are strange :)

7:34 am

My issues? I have issues?

7:34 am

What would a stranger think being accused of being a Babbler??

7:35 am

I think you will need some identifying marker

7:35 am

I know 'Do you babble?' might not come across very well.

7:35 am

I suggest pink beanies

7:35 am

Might be an arrestable offence in London - I don't know?

7:35 am

Umm what is a pink beanie?

7:36 am

Anyway, time is passing and I'd better get some lunch. Have a good babbling day and I'll see YOU tomorrow, FMitch. (I don't have a pink beanie either) Byeee!

7:36 am

Beanies! You know those skull hugging knitted things

7:36 am

Haz have a great time !!!

7:36 am

Byeeeee Haz, Safe journey and see you tomorrow :)

7:36 am

I'm meeting nobody with a teacosy on my head. Bye!

7:37 am

lol

7:37 am

I have to say I didn't know that sandy.

7:37 am

*Gone*

7:37 am

7:37 am

:)

7:37 am

Bye Haz, enjoy.

7:37 am

Awe EvaN is all loved up :)

7:38 am

Eva. :)

7:38 am

FM, the sad truth is that i think hes knows what time of the month it is + hes trying to avoid the monster.... LMAO

7:38 am

hmmmm husband is snoring so i can switch the tv over

7:39 am

8:08 am

Fine, thanks. The sun is shining and the white cut-offs are back out of storage (i.e. bin bag)

8:10 am

8:10 am

cool and drizzly here

8:10 am

dark and cold here with clear starry night

8:11 am

Gee, I just got kicked off babble for an "Access violation". What is that?

8:11 am

grab it while you can, weekend take book and into the garden.. that's what we British have to do.

8:11 am

i have no idea

8:11 am

Trust a Brit to start a chat about the weather! I'm off to sun myself in the garden now. See you later. Ooh, inge, how terrible. What did you do?

8:11 am

Elder it's too dark to read out in the garden

8:11 am

Inge, have no idea. the comp does that sometimes, I just ignore it.

8:11 am

News extra: just got a job as astrologer for Scarlet Magazine. Very saucy. They have an online version.

8:12 am

I had finished the grid, so no major loss here

8:12 am

Sandy LOl and too cold ?.

8:12 am

congrats hydra...predicting any interesting turn arounds for our planet's economy?

8:12 am

Elder it is and lots of bunyips could be about!

8:13 am

OK hydra, what do the stars say about the US economy?

8:13 am

Hydra, Wonderful such good news.. so can I look to you for inspiration :) and the online is?

8:14 am

Moving over to sudoku. See you all later

8:14 am

Inge, I am no good at predications, but it would seem not good USA or here.

8:15 am

.. for long time to come... and it would seem, we are in this mess as a result of some peoples greed.

8:16 am

Bye Inge.

8:17 am

Sandy.. bunyips ?.. Rabbits if so, grab and cook a hot stew.

8:18 am

Elder, bunyips are a very dangerous, strictly Austalian animal, known to lurk about after dark. All Aussie kids are very wary of them.

8:19 am

clues for the Y words?

8:19 am

YI + double cons and the 5 word is the same add plural

8:20 am

and Hello Babs.

8:20 am

thanks, elder..forgot that one!

8:21 am

Elder you should google bunyip

8:21 am

Sandy, are you kidding or is that right, seems an odd word for such a scary animal.

8:21 am

Yes elder don't go about after dark if you are in the bush

8:22 am

I had 4 husbands all taken by bunyips

8:22 am

unfortunately they weren't insured

8:22 am

Ahh, Mythical now I understand.. and your right stay indoors. :)

8:23 am

I don't let the one i have now go out after dark

8:23 am

Arent they called yowies?

8:23 am

not here spanner , that must be some other dangerous creature

8:24 am

Sandy, I could think of a few wife's around here, who would welcome the Bunyips.

8:25 am

My sister lived in Oz for a while and she was always worried she could be snatched by the yowies!!!....maybe i just misunderstood LOL

8:25 am

LOL

8:25 am

she might live in another state spanner, but i haven't heard of them in WA

8:27 am

8:33 am

8:33 am

Are you sure that's not you Elder- some statue erected in your honour?

8:34 am

9:50 am

Oh congrats to Tom!! well done :)

10:22 am

farrier for me also

10:22 am

everytime I see the word funeral, it reminds me of a mortician from a rural town around here. They have a billboard set up on the side of the highway that says "We put the 'fun' in funeral.

10:23 am

Anyone have a clue for en7, please?

10:23 am

good grief

10:23 am

so to speak

10:23 am

How tacky.

10:23 am

most people forget that funerals are for the living, not the dead. In memory of the dead, yes, but for the living.

10:23 am

(much of mom's family are undertakers)

oh my goodness... can't believe someone would actually print that, hug

10:24 am

it has just stuck with me since I've seen it

10:42 am

good, dc, babble is a good way to rest and forget the achiness.. take some tylenol

10:42 am

yes, my roomie asked if this did not make me tired, and told him no, it did not

company should not be unfortunate... hopefully

10:47 am

10:47 am

EN+ FL5

10:48 am

so the answer would be yes - LOL

10:48 am

Being a doctor, I'm sure you would know it.

10:48 am

thanks bzzz

10:49 am

I'm stuck on the word before en7, any clues for the first en5/12 please

10:49 am

A rectal clean out, flosey.

10:55 am

ty will look

10:55 am

brb

10:56 am

Hall's metho-lyptus are such a happy, and bring back fond memories of my mother's father. :)

10:57 am

I have a sentiment like that with Doublemint gum, dc.

10:57 am

Are you feeling better?

10:58 am

cannot see the 8's :(

10:59 am

a bit, bea; i may go out to play board games tonight

10:59 am

they build off the custard desert, fl4, peri, but are unrelated

10:59 am

ok, have the custar

10:59 am

oh, dc, stay home and keep the germs to yourself! : ) do your friends a favor!

10:59 am

*custard* even

11:01 am

dice, cards, pegs, chips, etc... all fomites

11:01 am

oops, custard dessert i meant :)

11:02 am

though a custard desert could be entertaining :)

11:02 am

LOL - what an image

11:03 am

i wonder how deep it would be, and would it be runny or thick, suck you down like quicsand, or let you wade/swim through.

11:04 am

ty, those French words are new to me. Took French in high school and college too

11:04 am

or eat your way thru

11:04 am

I do that with aid and aide, dc... one being a device the other being a person... thus, a hearing aide has a whole different image come up... or a sleeping aide...

11:04 am

i googled the 1st one and learned a lot :)

11:04 am

and fireworks

11:04 am

woohoo hug!!!

11:04 am

a hearing aide - neat name for an ASL Interpreter

11:05 am

congrats, hugs!!!

11:05 am

how about another clue for the fl7?

11:05 am

thanks... well gonna run and get stuff done... see ya later

11:05 am

take the custard and add a French 'one who' sufficx

11:05 am

bbs, doing laundry

11:06 am

er, suffix

11:07 am

my attending always like the sleeping aide image - a nice old woman who sits by the patients bed and rubs their feet or brow, softly snging them to sleep

11:07 am

how lovely, kje

11:08 am

yes, very different than the sleeping aid that knocks them out and causes falls and hip fractures

11:09 am

rn

11:09 am

sedation is good fo sleep, too LOL

11:09 am

I know after skipping yesterday's that I have no room to complain... but there are some really tough words in here

11:10 am

indeed kje, even some 4s and 5s are hard to find

11:11 am

like extracting answers from my students this morning flos...

11:12 am

hm. glasses on neither face nor head

11:12 am

ah, on the loveseat behind me. much better

11:12 am

perhaps another cup of coffee - brb

11:13 am

helping the love seat to see... nice

11:15 am

i'm farsighted enough that my glasses are not much good for many.

11:15 am

really??? that ma7??? hmmm

11:17 am

ah, one who spreads ma6, ty kje

11:18 am

please - seriously???

11:18 am

ma6 is the scent of spring at Unis here in VA

11:18 am

horse crap

11:19 am

can't you see that as a career day presentation...

11:19 am

seriously, ma7, one who spreads ma6, at least as fare as i can discern

11:19 am

lol dc, you make it sound so romantic!!!

11:19 am

still not getting that fl7, is it a stoopid word?

11:20 am

add a couple vowels and a cons, jean

11:20 am

btw dc, that scent is omnipresent in washington

11:20 am

which washington? the state, the city in VA, the city in NH, the city in DC....

11:21 am

Washington DC

11:21 am

and it's nothing to do with horticulture

11:21 am

they used to spread on the mall in the spring, then the Reagan administration happened....

11:21 am

inded, point taken :)

11:22 am

;-p

11:22 am

yes, I remember how they would spread it out over all the grassy places... whew!

11:22 am

ne6?

11:23 am

i don't have it yet, kje

11:24 am

will monkey more I guess

11:25 am

it's odd, I gave up and looked it up in morewords - ne cons, 2 vowels, pl

11:25 am

I'd never have found it otherwise

11:25 am

ne + national sporting goods store again + plural

11:26 am

TY flos

11:26 am

ty, kje and flosey

11:26 am

yw

11:27 am

11:28 am

Ne6 is a genus of polychaete worms in the family

11:28 am

thanks dc

11:29 am

uh, OK DC - LOL

11:29 am

i redacted the family, as it has most of the word in it :)

11:30 am

I've added it to my list of strange/unusual words

11:30 am

not that I'll ever use it in conversation, lol

11:30 am

12:51 pm

12:51 pm

Hello Boo.

12:52 pm

the elder cat looks confused, then goes and sits on an other corner, the yonger cat glares at it, leaps over to the floor and goes away.

12:53 pm

To clarify the cat is not me , for anyone wondering...

12:54 pm

yes, the cat is Jasper in that case :)

1:00 pm

Hello again. I played tennis then did errands, got my hair cut and am home for the day now.

1:02 pm

Until I am on call starting at 6:30 PM.

1:02 pm

Mine is not icon for today it was placed there following chat about Australian mythology.

1:03 pm

Scrabbs, through the night ?

1:03 pm

Scrabbler, I hate to nag/stalk on a professional level on your down time, but can I ask you a question?

1:03 pm

Well, that was rude. G'd afternoon everyone!

1:04 pm

Hello again LoriP:)

1:04 pm

Yes, Elder, until the office opens at 7:30 AM, but I am working Saturday and Sunday so I will be homicidal .

1:04 pm

hi, lori

1:04 pm

elder, most interesting, thank you.

1:04 pm

It's OK, Lori, you probably forgot your medication this AM. LOL

1:04 pm

LoriP.. another great icon message..

1:05 pm

Hi elder! dc, Babble's amazing, the different faces one sees at different times. :)

1:05 pm

jasper is liking the bowl out of which i just ate a spicy tomato sauce. he's lived with me too long. :) Cats stould not like capsicum like that.

1:05 pm

hello friends! how is the grid and WHAT IS SEAIN DOING HERE AGAIN????

1:05 pm

so true, lori

1:05 pm

dcs, the things we learn here,whilst playing game. :)

1:05 pm

Hi Stid. I am stalled at 51 found.

1:05 pm

are you still sick??? *worried mama look*

1:05 pm

hey cousin. sounds like a toughie then

1:05 pm

hello Stid, how you ?.

1:06 pm

i slept, took my meads, have been eating and staying hydrated, and the door is open to let in the lovely humidity. hello to yoo, too stid.

1:06 pm

Is it a cold, Seain, or more than that?

1:06 pm

lolol, red spots in the back of the throat, after a fever and I round of vomiting yesterday, in a child (almost 9 years old), and complaining of a sore throat ranking 9 out of 10 on the "does it hurt scale". Watchful waiting?

1:06 pm

eating made the headache go away, too

1:06 pm

Lori, what is your question?

1:06 pm

nasal and strep. i went to doc early to avoid upper resp

1:07 pm

*brings seain ginger ale, tea, oranges, apple slices, crackers and cheese; box of kleenex and a garbage can (just in case); a pile of coloring books and crayons (new box)

1:07 pm

i'm doing much better this afternoon, but shall not go out today.

1:07 pm

oh oh lori...

1:07 pm

LoriP. oh poor little mite..

1:08 pm

crayons. I was so happy once i found oil pastels. i like oil pastels and pencils. only after those did i learn to really use crayans, which i did not grok until the oil pastels. :)

1:08 pm

He certainly could have Strep throat, although it is early in the season. Strep is most common Nov-Mar. If there are red dots on the soft palate and uvula that is more suggestive of Strep. The answer will come from a rapid Strep test or throat culture.

1:08 pm

oh dc :( Not fun. I hope you feel better soon! ***hands a cup of hot tea with honey***

1:08 pm

ty, lori.

1:09 pm

*hands Seain some Echinacea and Goldenseal, to boost his immune system**

1:09 pm

my doctor mentioned they've had a lot of false negatives for strep here recently. They are in the Western Northern Virginia area. It's rearing its head early this season herebouts.

1:09 pm

:-D nothing like a new box of crayons to absolutely make my day -- my newest box are pure pigment, shaped like pencils, and fragile because there is only a very thin lacquer between the wax and the hand. duct tape heals all!

1:09 pm

warm flannel dipped in comforting herbs, for both Dcs and LorIP's little one.

1:09 pm

Okay, thanks Scrabbler. I've always thought of strep as white spots, and I've never had a kid with strep (except Uni). this is the kid that has a high tolerance for pain, so him answering 9 out a possible 10 startled me, lol

1:10 pm

Hmm, I would bet on true negatives---not Strep season yet and if there is a stuffy, runny nose then the diagnosis = viral. Just throwing in my $ 0.02.

1:10 pm

yes, I would be worried too lori -- scrabbler do dairy products "feed" strep?

Could it be what Walter had? And I'm not really here... hi folks...

1:11 pm

**as vote of confidence...that kid is TOUGH. A nine is a serious number for him.

1:11 pm

No runny nose, or any of that. Just a slight fever today he went to school, but hasn't eaten a thing, complaining about the sore throat.

1:11 pm

hello monkey-who-is-not-here

1:11 pm

Lori, viruses, e.g. Adenovirus, typically cause "white spots".

1:11 pm

Hi MG and Uniquity

1:11 pm

i mostly eschew dairy when stuffy, but i'm lactoes intolerant.

1:11 pm

hello Monkey.. just seen your mirror image. ::))

Sprite and her kids all have the sore throat like that... I think we brought it back from CA...

1:12 pm

Darn germs!

My mirror image?

1:12 pm

they are better now though monkey -- except sprite, but you know with her advanced age it just takes her longer to get over things. *wicked mama look*

1:12 pm

hy, monkey

1:12 pm

Ahh, that's good info Scrabbler. I'm not a panic mode Mom by any stretch. Slight fever, extremely sore throat, red spots sums it up. lol

Yeah, can't use "st5 mama look"...

1:12 pm

YES!!! I got the Y wurds!

1:13 pm

Stid or anyone, are mums perennials? I bought several that were on sale. Can I plant them in the ground and expect a return next year?

1:13 pm

i've had chills with no fever, though today no chills nor achiness, happily.

1:13 pm

go, stid!

1:13 pm

I think it takes adults longer to feel better as you try to keep going.

1:13 pm

oops. thanks for that one monkey! LOL

I'm glad they'r better! Yay! Advanced age?

1:13 pm

NS just had a cold snap...everyone I meet is sick! Don't want to think about any more sickness..

1:13 pm

Yea stid. Go go go!

1:13 pm

Hello Uni.

1:13 pm

UNIQUITY!!!! where you been? you good? I miss you!!!!

1:13 pm

it's only in the upper 60s F here today, a good bit chillier than usual.

1:13 pm

hello

1:13 pm

LOL well, she is almost as old as I am, monkey!

1:14 pm

how are you, uni?

1:14 pm

hi, marigold

Danny had chills and sore throat for 6 weeks from Walter's mystery virus. I did not get sick.

1:14 pm

Scrabbs what are Mum's don't recognise the term for plants.

1:14 pm

stid, herin e-mailed me a recipe for a vegan choc cake. looks good and easy. do you have the recipe?

1:14 pm

As soon as schools open up the germ factory begins full operation. And kids are so good at sharing their germs.

1:14 pm

marigold!!! the famous marigold who is top of the charts!!! *bows in respect*

How old are you???? I'll be 40 in January...

1:14 pm

Whoa, onslaught of affection! Hi everyone...I have quit babble on the whole, for a while. Have done it once since August, but I have missed everyone. Maybe will ease my way back in :)

1:14 pm

Hi Marigold

1:14 pm

Oh yah, for sure Scrabbler. Look everyone it's a rare Uni sighting! :D

1:14 pm

LOL no, I don't think I do, actually -- are you able to share, marigold?

1:15 pm

Mums = chrysanthemums.

1:15 pm

um.... *whispers* (older than you monkey...)

1:16 pm

Scrabs, what else should we do but share? I remember adults telling me all the time to share..

1:16 pm

oh that sewer (waste water) sounding word is in the grid again.

1:16 pm

helo all, that was me, peri typing using marigolds name. We are sisters after all :-)

1:16 pm

it always takes me so long to notice that it4

1:16 pm

Srabbs ahh, you can put them in the soil now ( autumn)or wait till spring.

1:16 pm

hey peri! LOL

Yeah but... I hung out woth Sprite and she seems, well, like 45...

1:16 pm

Uni always generous in the sandbox.....

1:16 pm

Please add some extra prayers for my dear friend, Mary, who is battling brain cancer. She had to be hospitalized yesterday due to progressing muscle weakness, but fortunately so far all tests are normal.

1:16 pm

I was the one who got her addicted to babble

1:16 pm

Yes I will e-mail you the recipe, stid

1:16 pm

Any clue for UN7, please?

1:16 pm

Scrabs, I did send Reiki to Mary yesterday.

1:17 pm

Scrabbs how is your friend Mary?

1:17 pm

what hospital is Mary in Scrabs?

1:17 pm

Hi Periwinkle who was pretending to be MArigold.

I will, Scrabbs. I am not religious but I am spiritual and I believe in the power of prayer.

1:17 pm

oh dear scrabbler, you mentioned that last time I saw you too, but she was still at home. (((((scrabbler))))) and energy going to Mary now

1:17 pm

thanks peri

1:17 pm

She is at Buffalo General Hospital.

1:17 pm

un 7, think of joyful Robin Hood's men

1:17 pm

1:17 pm

1:17 pm

NM - got it.

1:17 pm

1:17 pm

what a great picture of you and ardilla, stid!

1:17 pm

TY, Lori.

1:17 pm

Mary hopes to be home by Tuesday--her daughter's 8th birthday.

1:17 pm

see you later uniquity!

1:18 pm

Scrabbs. would physio help to strengthen her muscles?.

1:18 pm

Hi Bea

1:18 pm

the bigger grids are really playing havoc with my left shoulder

1:18 pm

ciao, uni!

1:18 pm

Hello, Scrabs.

While we're at it can some thoughts go to my grandfather also? He has been far more vague and unresponsive since he was ill. I'm worried about him.

1:18 pm

I hope she is home by then too, Scrabs

1:18 pm

Scrabs, how is Ben doing?

1:18 pm

***nothing but good things from my home to Mary***

1:18 pm

Elder, she has been getting intensive OT + PT all along, but has lost strength over the last 2 wks or so. It is thought that the cancer chemotherapy is contributing.

1:18 pm

but of course, monkey

1:19 pm

oh oh... yes monkey -- would another email be good or just more confusing to him?

1:19 pm

MG, he is in California, right? Is he comfortable?

1:19 pm

good positive thoughts passing on to Mary and Monkey's Grandfather.

Well, not more confusing-- he seemsquite comfortable, not freaked-outr confused... I think he's love to hear from you.

1:19 pm

Gonna' go and let the kdis on now, thanks for the information, good to see all the old faces. Have a great day all!

1:20 pm

Ben is back in school fulltime and still must use a walking boot as the bone graft is slow to heal. Chemo continues.

1:20 pm

wait- ben the nephew? is this the one that had the skateboard accident or something?

Scrabbs, yes, he is in an excellent facility where they genuinely love himand is getting very good care. My aunt is there every day for some hours.

1:20 pm

well, there is progress, scrabbs, glad to hear.

1:20 pm

later lori!

1:20 pm

take care, lori

1:20 pm

What is the sewer word in the grid?

1:20 pm

okay, I'll write a note today

1:20 pm

Bye LoriP, hope your little one perks up soon and starts to feel better.

1:20 pm

it "sounds like" sewer, I think it's french for msiter

1:21 pm

or mister...

1:21 pm

***forgot to add, feel better soon dc*** Laters!

1:21 pm

Nope, Ben, my patient--15 yr old with metastatic bone cancer from the foot.

Thanks, Stid! He likes to hear from people.

1:21 pm

Ah, yes, wasn't si5 in the grid yesterday? Geez, I saw it yesterday but not today.

1:22 pm

oh -- sorry, it has been a while and there are so many people you know with problems... *sigh*

1:22 pm

yes, it was in the grid yesterday also.

1:22 pm

Yep, tragedy and sorrow abound the world over.

1:23 pm

stid where is the picture of you and ardilla?

Being a doctor brings one closer to it all too, I know. Let's all salute Scrabbler and Kje and the other doctors on here for their toreless work to help the rest of us poor schmos!

1:23 pm

I think I put it on the website... hold on

1:23 pm

fe7 after the squicky animals, pls?

1:24 pm

It is awful to hear of youngster going through so much, when their childhoods should be free of such horrid stuff.

1:24 pm

I'll change my icon

1:24 pm

hear, hear, monkey!!!

1:24 pm

Salute'

1:24 pm

Our practice just had an 11 yr old girl diagnosed with lymphoma yesterday, with extensive testing underway now to determine the type.

For the record, Walter still insists he wants to be a podiatrist even though they don't get to listen to a lot of heart beeps (stethoscope curent fave toy).

1:25 pm

oh my........

Poor kid!

1:25 pm

Monkey.. bless.

1:26 pm

okay, check icon/profile

1:26 pm

The bad diagnoses are tough, for sure, on us, but far more for the kid and family. Then there are healthy kids with minor, self-limiting illnesses and parents cannot cope.

1:26 pm

LOL good walter!

1:26 pm

https://alert.loudoun.gov/latest.php OMG you MUST see the 10:13 and 10:16 alerts from the Loudoun County, Virgiinia gov't!!!

1:26 pm

you are too funny, stid. stating that is you on the right and ardilla on the left :-)

1:27 pm

Hmm, sorry if that sounds snotty. I just wish that many more parents would cope better with colds, stomach viruses, etc.

1:27 pm

water wells? or the main road closure?

1:27 pm

well, someone who doesn't know me wouldn't know! ;-)

1:27 pm

Tom wanted to be a doctor growing up, but became an RN, and is planning to go back to school for anesthesiology

1:28 pm

Don't you think they think you should be able to give them medicine and all is right with the world, Scrabs?

1:28 pm

the gingerbread man, stid, scroll down

1:28 pm

you're right, stid. just made me chuckle

1:28 pm

scrabbler, no fair talking about me in public! *upset mama look* I shall have to take THREE valiums and go lie down now. I just cannot cope!!!

1:28 pm

I think parents with younger children tend to be more concerned that with older ones, and the first or second child's illnesses seem more alarming than later siblings'

1:31 pm

1:53 pm

I didn't find a bird so it must have flown off. Not long ago, a baby purple finch slammed into the window and I grabbed him out there but he quickly died, from a broken neck, I presume.

1:53 pm

it happens frequently here but most are just stunned momentarily

1:55 pm

i must away. until later! {poof}

1:56 pm

bye dc

1:56 pm

poor thing. One day last winter a grackle was overcome from the furnace fumes and fell in the chimney, landed on the bottom, revived himself, and flew through the furnace and was in my basement for a few days before I cornered him and let him go outside. As he was released he made a huge sound as if to say thank you.

*getting out magic 8 ball for dilemma decision* hey everyone and hey lynxxx...long time no see!

3:37 pm

loayalty is obviously with my friend but this the people i work with, i want to be part of the team.. dunno what to do!

3:37 pm

krist: shake the ball!

3:37 pm

hi Kris

3:38 pm

8 ball says: go to one late, leave one early...both people get a little love from bfsog!

Hi everyone! How's it going for you today?

3:38 pm

You can't go early to one and then leave early and go to the other?

3:39 pm

hi Autumn

3:39 pm

not really. to top it all. the work doo starts at 6 and im meant to picking the friend up, im driving to where she lives and then bringing her to where we all live. lol.

Hey Autumn....great, I am babbling in bed, watching bad tv and my husband is cleaning our house...how can it get any better?

3:39 pm

welcome to bfsog-land where nothing is simple

3:40 pm

3:40 pm

can anyone help w/ the first fe 5/16?

3:41 pm

f + nobody move this is a h****

3:42 pm

I'd pick the friend up earlier than planned, drop her off, go to the work thing for 2/3 hrs then go back and party with your friends all nite

3:42 pm

hi gang... I think I need 47 clues

3:42 pm

TY bfsog

3:42 pm

thanks for the commitment, but my friend finishes work when the work doo starts.

bfsog - see if someone else can pick up the friend, change the venue to something closer to you work funtion, then leave the work function earlier. Just explain it to your workmates that this "suddenly came up" and they should be understanding about it

3:43 pm

thanks for the f clue, I am thinking!

3:43 pm

au5/12 clue?

3:43 pm

bfsog - you've got a dilemma! no-one lse can pick her up?

3:44 pm

babble: 1. bfsog dilemmas: 0

3:45 pm

*silly, that is

3:46 pm

um, isn't ferris a kind of wheel?

I would commit to my friend, with immediate apologies to my workmates. If you're holding your friend's function in a public place, tell your workmates that is where you'll be if they want to come by after the work function

3:47 pm

is the ir6 a fish bychance? (and then can I have a clue for it :) )

3:47 pm

thanks to everyones thoughts, such a caring bunch! different towns are holding both parties. i doubt anyone from work will miss me that much i only been there 5 months lol

3:47 pm

Well - unless your friend can get to you under her own steam or you can change the day to say this Sunday, I think you need to ring your boss and grovel out of the work do

3:48 pm

fl8 - the first one pretty please!

3:48 pm

ir6 full of anger

Kristin - are you actually "in bed"? or just laying in bed? When hubby is finished, tell him to take the 4 hour drive north and help my hubby install the flooring or clean my house!! lol.

3:52 pm

if fish means an easy word(s) then no kim

3:52 pm

the tr6/18s are not fish

3:52 pm

I've got 77 to go, trying to do it without the list today, but getting nowhere fast

4:35 pm

Hi guys! Not played today after giving up on yesterday's huuuuuuuge puzzle. How're you all doing?

4:35 pm

Wooooh hooooh ASG

4:36 pm

Is it just the 2 of you here then?

4:36 pm

hi tinks, quiet here today

4:36 pm

just the two of us

4:37 pm

tinks, just read your profile, I do the same sometimes, in and out, grab a few minutes whenever I can, computer is always tuned to Babble, tho

4:38 pm

Awwh - I'd normally only come to try and clue, but no chance of that today as I have none. Yup JBV I normally only join in chat when I've done, but do sometimes pop in to beg clues

4:38 pm

so you're not starting the grid at all?

4:39 pm

hey ya'll

4:40 pm

hi, lex

4:40 pm

Hey - gues what!!

4:40 pm

It's FRIDAY!!!!

4:40 pm

jbv tonight it's already late so no, will play tomorrow's grid whatever!

4:41 pm

what lex!!??!

4:41 pm

It's Friday!!!

4:41 pm

this is so lame...but can I get a clue for the Y4 and it's plural?

4:41 pm

it's Friday and I'm just beginning to relax after a very long and stressful week, so babble is my mental health minute right now

4:42 pm

TWO whole days until work again!!!

4:42 pm

ah

4:42 pm

welcome JBV to mental health

4:42 pm

for the y4, it ends in a double consonant

4:42 pm

yi4 = rhymes with her

4:42 pm

purr...spur...

4:42 pm

and guess what else? next week I have two days off again - much needed

4:43 pm

ty jbv

4:43 pm

y + it was probably human *** rather than computer *** (but replace the first letter with the third vowel) + plural

4:43 pm

Babble is my so called escape, not always sure I can count it as stress relief tho, I get really wound up when I can't spot stuff!

4:44 pm

Cool JBV, I have 13 days to take between now and the end of the year, trying to decide what to do with them

4:45 pm

wow JBV...SPOILED!

4:46 pm

yes, I suppose you're right, lex, but I work hard the rest of the time so I don't feel I'm getting away with much

4:48 pm

Just have a brill break JBV - it can be tough trying to get away from work at times

4:52 pm

it's okay - we all need to feel rested and spoiled from time to time

Of course I did - I was 10 at the tome

6:42 pm

I can't even remember who they played

6:42 pm

I was a bit older lol

6:44 pm

6:44 pm

Hello again. Mr Fix-It Man arrived to show me the bill and get a check. I finally found a home handyman and I showed him a list of future work for him to do.

6:44 pm

bye west

6:44 pm

Hi Scrabbler

6:44 pm

GREAT, scrabs. What did he fix today? And, how is Mary doing? Ben?

6:45 pm

Hi Scrabbler

6:45 pm

Met--did you see that game last nite? What a great ending!!!

6:46 pm

oooooh, I LOVE the n 7/40 word......

6:46 pm

My Fix-It put in new shower/tub faucets, repaired the sump pump, put in a new motion sensor light outside, removed the garbage disposal and fixed the leaking kitchen sink.

6:46 pm

Hi Mom

6:46 pm

ne....all I have is the goose....any help

6:46 pm

that is terrific, scrabs!

6:46 pm

that is quite a bit of work Scrabbler, must be a relief to have that finished

6:47 pm

ne+ pa's mate

6:47 pm

No, Sis, I don't watch the games - seeing them choke AGAIN is too depressing

6:48 pm

Mary entered the hospital yesterday due to ongoing and worsening weakness and fortunately all tests are normal, so it is presumed that the chemo is making her weak. I will visit her this weekend and she wants to be home by Tuesday for her daughter's 8th birthday.

6:48 pm

ne+ make a f*** to punch with

6:48 pm

no choking! they pulled it out and won in the 9th

6:48 pm

Yes, it IS such a relief. I have a list of more work for him but I have to save some money.

6:48 pm

thanks Pug

is mary a babbler?

6:48 pm

thanx pug

6:48 pm

They've been choking for the last 2 weeks

6:49 pm

Oh, I am so glad the tests are normal. Chemo sucks. Poison to do good--like the Heartworm treatment for Pearl...

6:49 pm

ne+ steer a horse with the ***n*

6:49 pm

Nothing like last year, Met...

6:49 pm

Scrabbler, that is a good way to go about it. I am sure your Mr Fix-It is much cheaper than getting a repairman for each item you want fix

6:50 pm

Nope, she is a dear friend diagnosed with brain cancer 2 days after the birth of her 3rd child last Oct. She became ill during the third trimester.

6:50 pm

pug...my heroine

6:50 pm

Last year was the pits....

6:50 pm

Indeed it was, met, indeed it was...

prayers for her, her family & your friend are going up as type this

6:50 pm

Yes, Mom--he is al all-purpose handyman and a plumber would have charged far more.

6:51 pm

that is good that you found him, Scrabbler

6:51 pm

does he charge hourly

6:52 pm

I need the gadgets in the toilet fixed... I suppose I could watch a video and unscrew everything muyself... but I think I'll just ask the downstairs neighbor, who is a contractor, who is plumber is.... I'll get a deal

6:52 pm

Scrab, where I live, a plumber chages over $50 just to get here.

is anyone getting hit by the nor'easter?

6:52 pm

me I think

6:52 pm

rainy here but nithing too bad yet

6:52 pm

us in NY

6:52 pm

Until last week, we had a handyman but he moved; so sad

clue pls for fe 7 aftyer the weasels?

nance we had it

6:53 pm

POURING here.... in Boston

beach erosion is terrible

6:53 pm

When he came to fix my sump pump in August (the basement was flooded and it took him 3 hrs and multiple trips up and downstairs) as I pulled out my checkbook he said, "Hm, how does $120 sound? Is that OK?"

6:53 pm

PS it's harder to find a plumber than to get a doctor now. & they're more expensive!!

6:53 pm

drought here . . .

6:53 pm

all day here....NC

6:53 pm

fe+ double cons + day & n***

6:53 pm

THAT is terrific, scrabs....

the sc & our nc coast got hit pretty badly causing beach erosion - we got rain here in raleigh and wind gusts to 35 mph - that is bearable

6:54 pm

scrab, that's beyond belief . . .

6:54 pm

saanich--where is willis point?

please, anyone in it path be safe

6:54 pm

fe plus cons plus ri4/4----sounds like an iron mineral/ore

6:54 pm

wow Scrabbler, that is a deal

8:43 pm

hi all

8:44 pm

Was supposed to be a varicocele + hernia. Didn't turn out quite so simple.

8:44 pm

OOOOH Jac

8:44 pm

do you like your new office, ardilla? are they being nice to you?

8:44 pm

THose hernia surgeries can be brutal

8:44 pm

have a bag of frozen peas, jac?

8:45 pm

I have mentioned ice to Beloved, but he looked so terrified I didn't mention it again.

8:45 pm

they are great people

8:45 pm

OOOh poor mr Jac

8:45 pm

glad to hear that ardilla

8:46 pm

aren't tactics and strategies the same thing?

8:46 pm

this debate isn't being very well conducted

8:46 pm

frozen peas or corn wrapped in a towel. it really will help the swelling and pain.

8:46 pm

I'm not sure that he's not having a bleed now. I will hope that GP will respond at 9am and come and see him.

8:46 pm

they both move off point, not answering the question

8:46 pm

planning vs methodology

8:46 pm

that's good to hear that there are still good people in offices.

8:46 pm

furl

8:46 pm

not really ardilla *trying to remember the difference* I think the tactics are HOW you accomplish the strategies. in military speak, anyway

8:46 pm

oops, sorry all, wrong window

8:47 pm

lbd - if I put sweetcorn anywhere NEAR the crown jewels I'd be damned. He hates corn. LOL

8:47 pm

obama interrupted early on when he shouldn't have & wasn't called, so they've been taking turns doing it since

8:47 pm

tactics is the how and the resources to do it. strategies are plans to make the tactics work

8:47 pm

..though, maybe if it helped him in his hour of need?

8:47 pm

my father used to fly for the tactical airlift command out of McChord (back when the Air Force had MAC, SAC and TAC) Military airlift, Strategic airlift and Tactical airlift commands

8:47 pm

No, he's alsleep again for the moment.

8:48 pm

jac, he may find they are good for something! lol

8:49 pm

down to 63... slow slow going. I think I'll list now

8:49 pm

Indeed he may, lbd. LOL

8:49 pm

8:50 pm

hi k21, hi hursh

8:50 pm

Hi K

8:50 pm

hi hurshy

8:50 pm

I'm all done, though I must admit I've done the last 2 days' grids mechanically, without my normal cheerful zeal. I can clue, if needed.

8:51 pm

woot jac

8:51 pm

hurshy? THE hurshy???? at this hour? *checks for fever* are you okay, dear?

8:51 pm

welp, the witching hour is nearing, must get to my pillows or turn to mush at 3am. see you all tomorrow

8:51 pm

are you also annoyed with the debate, nutty, or just being a pirate?

8:51 pm

bye lbd

8:51 pm

sweet dreams LBD!

8:51 pm

i'm annoyed at someone rudely not shutting up but going on strings of lies...yes

8:51 pm

i am ok, except i wish i had a nickel for every stupid thing being said tonight

8:52 pm

well, don't let it get to you, hurshy.

We can see the debate live here on a news site which i think is good

8:52 pm

no you don't hursh. they'd tax you triple time for it! gone...*poof*

8:52 pm

Ardilla - I finished at 4.07pm grid time (about 10pm UK time). My last word was zo6.36. Yesterday's grid was a great grid but not easy for me to finish due to being worried etc., but my last word, ironically, was 'triumph'. LOL

8:52 pm

you'd be rich hurshy

8:52 pm

it already HAS got to me, hence the ARGH

8:53 pm

...and then you could lend all of us money

8:53 pm

yes, i could bail out the banks myself!

8:53 pm

they are both politicians; they are both practicioners of doublespeak; comes with territory

8:53 pm

Hursh - life is all politics but don't let policicians on TV get to you.

8:53 pm

lol hurshy

(and talking out of ones arse)

8:53 pm

Easier said than done, I know.

8:54 pm

and let's face it both are better than what we have now

8:54 pm

I'm still interested in hearing what they say

8:54 pm

that is absolutely true west

8:54 pm

and hello

8:54 pm

DO 7 please? my last D word

8:54 pm

i think that the candidates should not have debates. i think that economic experts should come on the tv and have a discussion about what is best to do. people who are more committed to serious inquiry than to any political party and will just tell us WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON

8:54 pm

hi west

8:54 pm

hi west very true

8:55 pm

hi ardi and jilli

8:55 pm

blitzen's partner + t, stid

8:55 pm

do7 = a type of Greek kebab with a consonant (British breakfast drink) to end it, Stid.

8:55 pm

the economic experts are likely partisan too

8:55 pm

blitzen's partner wt sound of drink on end

8:55 pm

good clue hursh

8:56 pm

thankd hurshy and Jac!

8:56 pm

and nDan!

8:56 pm

all I could think of was one of the everly brothers for the start

8:56 pm

great clue

8:56 pm

i think there are very good academics who let the facts inform their partisanship, instead of the other way around

8:56 pm

thank you hurshy, nice clue

8:57 pm

Hursh - that clue was far more succinct than mine. Loved it.

8:57 pm

easy clue for me, hursh, ty

8:57 pm

wish we could be safe voting all incumbants out of office to show anger at economic disaster, but the bill was passed over a decade ago which set up this disaster

8:57 pm

apparently being annoyed is good for my cluing

8:57 pm

lol

8:57 pm

LOL, Hursh.

8:57 pm

ziiiiiiiing!

8:57 pm

jilli love that horse

8:57 pm

Sits here being quiet

8:57 pm

8:58 pm

8:58 pm

45 left going to list hi rlee

If I start talking politics my happy mood is going to be flushed

8:59 pm

jilli - you know our game of Scrabulous locked up? Well it happened to me and Hydra, too. We spent a happy week playing a game, started a second and it froze like yours and mine did. Is this to do with the Hasbro thing, I wonder?

8:59 pm

west, I was given it, but here I am, paying no attention to it and all will be well...

8:59 pm

tell us about your happy mood herin

8:59 pm

these "stories" mccain keeps telling has NOTHING to do with policy

8:59 pm

jac, I have no idea. Can you get Wordscraper on facebook?

8:59 pm

first FE please?

8:59 pm

exactly

9:00 pm

Herin - then follow my life rule - never talk religion or politics outside of your close circle unless forced to.

9:00 pm

we should do like england, shorter election periods. the human brain can only stand so much self-lauding masquerading as being humbly honored

9:00 pm

mine always boils over

No Reason. have extra cash so i can get stuff fixed and sorted and Staying Alive is on telly (snicker)

9:00 pm

Jilli - I can get Wordscraper but I can't understand how to play it!:-(

9:00 pm

hursh, we're having a stupid election here in Canada too

9:00 pm

nice to have some extra isn't it, lady!

9:00 pm

ah ah ah ah stayin aliiiiiiiiiiive

9:01 pm

I was surprised how long they go on for over there, you must get sick and tired of it well before you actually get to vote

9:01 pm

ok, jac, will work on that -- haven't started a game there yet but am playing several others have started.

9:01 pm

9:03 pm

thats clare she is soooo spoiled

9:03 pm

*glad I don't have the TV on -- hate stupid MAC/PC commercials*

9:04 pm

you know the bit where tony parker says he has three rings and then eva longoria says she has one? don't you think it would be so much funnier if they followed that with a clip of Sauron saying "*i* have one ring"?

9:04 pm

those ads were so stupid

9:04 pm

a cute little animal stid

9:04 pm

fe + majoirty ***e + * indef article for beach

9:04 pm

hursh -- I'm with you -- the PC ads don't get it, or maybe I don't get it, ergo they are dum :)

9:04 pm

Dunno, Hursh, 'cos I'm not seeing the same TV ads as you do. I was rather concerned when , after receiving from Sprite what I thought was a spoof letter of complaint to the advertising manager of Always pads I then saw an ad for them which said 'Have A Happy Period!' Are they mad or what?

Glad i have Staying Alive on telly

9:05 pm

except, of course, he didn't. maybe frodo.

9:05 pm

jac, they are men

9:05 pm

looks like a old movie

9:05 pm

they are mad.

9:05 pm

got it. thanks nDan! the animal is an earlier fe!

9:05 pm

That would be it, jilli.LOL

9:05 pm

there's a better one with 'mother nature' handing out red gift packages and saying here's your period

9:06 pm

yikes, west!

9:06 pm

Really, West? OMG!

9:06 pm

okay, the FL 8/7/8 series please?

9:07 pm

it's awful can't believe those women don't take her down

9:07 pm

fl8 sounds like auther fl_____ o'connor

West: http://tinyurl.com/4cdmxm

9:07 pm

to bad interference policies since the '40s have created so many foreign enemies for us

9:07 pm

the 7 has a french type ending and the other 8 is the plural of that

9:08 pm

got hte first 8...

9:08 pm

thanks hurshy *working*

9:08 pm

The only people who are 'happy' to receive periods are those who tooks risks and thought they might be pregnant but didn't want to be and those, who through some kind of illness, weren't having any and are happy to see them back as a sign of good health.

9:08 pm

fl = the dessert + great lake bordering ny

9:08 pm

I cannot believe I got those... thanks!

9:08 pm

fl #2 - dessert + apprev for continent of nl and france

9:08 pm

don't forget the people who fear growing old and are glad they haven't hit menopause

9:09 pm

true jac in one she says ooh a honeymooner

9:09 pm

9:09 pm

9:09 pm

Stid - ir is full of anger.

9:10 pm

ah, McCain -- nice use of subjunctives...

9:10 pm

I am sure it's a fish, but I cannot figure it out "irate" isn't 6 and it isn't there!

9:10 pm

today I was screaming at my dishwasher because something wouldn't fit saying damned male engineers

9:10 pm

oh!!!! I GOT IT!!!!

WEST did you see my tiny url?

9:10 pm

no herin I"ll scroll

http://tinyurl.com/4cdmxm

There you go

9:11 pm

jilli, you said you are having a stupid election?

9:12 pm

Well done, Stid.

Its one of my fav adverts.

9:12 pm

does it... ok this is not meant badly, but... do you think it might not be quite as annoying as ours, on account of it having less global impact?

9:13 pm

I think the Canadian is less annoying just because it's only a few weeks long. I tuned out the U.S. (mostly) a few months ago. TWO YEARS they have been going at it!

9:13 pm

if i hear 'doesn't seem to understand' one more time...

9:13 pm

NU 7 please?

M or B Nut?

9:13 pm

lol herin I just watched it too funny

9:13 pm

i don't like the "what sen. obama doesn't understand" style!

Its a great advert

9:14 pm

i gotta say, it takes less time for a baby elephant to gestate than for us to have an election.

9:14 pm

get thee to a nu7!

9:14 pm

he he he...now now, no talking about elephants

9:14 pm

my icon clue

9:14 pm

lets start a grassroot petition - no announcing or campaigning prior to the feb before an election or you're banned from running; would save millions of dollars

9:14 pm

but i love elephants

9:15 pm

thanks west and hurshy!

9:15 pm

not if it's the stephen colbert style of elephant gestation!

9:15 pm

down to 16, working on the RE words now...

9:15 pm

RE words REmoved!

9:15 pm

gads, it'll be soooo much more fun if jon stewart was doing this debate

9:15 pm

when did we do away with person with most votes is president person with next most is veep?

9:16 pm

Rs ripped... TEN to go!

9:16 pm

i think after only a few admins, west

9:16 pm

very early; due to rapid expansion & delays in communication

9:16 pm

I twould be more fun if Jon Stewart were running for Pres

9:16 pm

no longer valid reasons in this day & age

9:16 pm

hello pam!

9:16 pm

when about 30 wealthy land owning men got to choose?

Pam Patrick Stewart?

9:17 pm

i guess if i have a problem with someone, its wrong of me to talk to them about it

9:17 pm

Jon Stewart Vs. Stephen Colbert....

9:17 pm

yeah, stewart and colbert tix

9:17 pm

yes, we should totally have stewart host the debates. he would not pretend that people are saying legitimate things when they are not.

9:17 pm

my vote is for bill maher

or William Shatner

9:17 pm

yes!

9:17 pm

i think regular newsguys are too polite.

9:17 pm

exactly

9:17 pm

i love the dailt show and colbert report

9:17 pm

*daily

9:17 pm

1804, 12th amendment, west

9:18 pm

I was just a baby then pam lol

9:18 pm

9:18 pm

oops. ON 7 please?

9:18 pm

LOL, west

9:18 pm

joking about not watching the debates 'cause nights on rodanthe was opening tonite

9:18 pm

patrick stewart could deliver good oratory, herin

9:18 pm

9:19 pm

I wasn't watching, but then felt guilty

9:19 pm

yeah, that was pretty funny. the ads for that movie make me gag

Yes he could

9:19 pm

watched enough to not feel guilty

9:19 pm

hi, stid

9:19 pm

prob is some people expect the pres. will be able to affect major changes, not true; can work on it but cant guarantee it

9:19 pm

9:20 pm

for instance, if i heard correctly, there was a point where the essence of one of mccain's statement was that the answer to problems of war is to have a good strategy.

9:20 pm

nut, does mccain keep on saying it?

9:21 pm

the ZO 6 please?

9:21 pm

I am just not awake enough to monkey it

9:21 pm

9:21 pm

of course, Obama's grammar is impeccable

9:23 pm

9:23 pm

more recently, during the brett favre debacle, i heard another commentator talking about previous contract situations say, "every one of those situations was unique, and this one is no different."

9:23 pm

lol

OK im going

9:24 pm

*gasp* they should stop using former players as commentators. obviously their heads have been banged too much!

9:24 pm

LOLOL, hursh

9:24 pm

later lady

9:24 pm

would have been nice if the Pats signed Favre

back, and frustrated.

9:24 pm

poor poor Brady

enjoy your debate

9:24 pm

and when he is released, he goes into foster care until the custody dispute is solved

need clues for 2nd nu4/5; got the veiled ones

9:25 pm

I hope this works out, ardilla

9:25 pm

actually stid, that particular commentator was NOT a former player, but a career broadcaster.

9:25 pm

Why are you frustrated, tyger?

because I've searched every resource I know

9:25 pm

throw a baseball change the first letter

9:25 pm

nu4 rhyme with hair that's not straight

9:25 pm

hi tyger

9:25 pm

or lose your dinner

hey, ardilla

9:26 pm

for what, tyger?

OH. where's the fish? :blush:

I was trying to find that word, and couldn't see the path :silly grin:

I did have a dreadful day today. that's my excuse :P

and thx so very much, hursh

9:28 pm

hye tyger

hey, stid!

9:28 pm

Well, i hope tomorrow is better, tyger

9:28 pm

ciao, stid

9:28 pm

the thing i don't get is, a good number of politicians are reasonably intelligent people - how do they stand this whole process? i'd be a bald lady if i had to run for office. either from pulling my own hair out, or because i'd develop an ulcer that would be misdiagnosed as paraneoplastic syndrome resulting from cancer, and given chemotherapy.

9:28 pm

we'll keep a light on stid

I need to get back to work. I have more than 60 words yet to find

LOL, hursh. It's my opinion that nobody normal is willing to run for office

9:29 pm

bye stid tc

9:29 pm

thats why so many in the past had lots of affairs

9:29 pm

bye tyger

later, stiddie

9:29 pm

I agree hursh I can't imagine why they don't just walk away

9:30 pm

and closet pill poppers

9:30 pm

wow, that makes so much sense, nDan

it's the will to power, west. many people, once they get a taste of power, develop an addiction

9:30 pm

well, hurshy, then you won't have the health care $ to treat your ulcers

9:30 pm

its the power rush; some have it, some dont

9:30 pm

I'll stick to babble then

9:31 pm

i guess that they like the free money

9:31 pm

as my addiction of choice

I agree, hursh. dan makes lots of sense :) gotta get back to the grindstone

back in a bit

9:31 pm

it won't matter anyway, shirlock, because the chemo will have destroyed my immune system, so the infection that the perforated ulcer releases into my system will kill me, and no amount of money will stop it.

9:31 pm

mccain's tone is very condensending

9:32 pm

*condescending

9:32 pm

he's obviously trying for the elder statesman role

9:32 pm

what about a group hug for hursh

9:32 pm

*HUG*

9:32 pm

lol, thanks

9:32 pm

def. group hugs for hurshy

9:33 pm

'HUG"

9:33 pm

McCain repeats himself way too much ,and is too much the happy war monger

9:33 pm

it just occurred to me that the earlier babble-off suggestion would favor my candidate, as mccain apparently does not use computers.

9:33 pm

I just heard that isn't that amazing?

9:34 pm

time for cheesecake factory banana fosters cheesecake break

9:34 pm

he cant - the torture injuries inhibit his arm movements

9:34 pm

my grandfather is in his 80's and HE uses the computer. he even has a webcam.

9:34 pm

he doesn't use computers???

9:35 pm

oh, for real nDan? but he's rich enough to afford voice recognition software.

9:35 pm

i mean i know he can't lift his arms above shoulder level, but...

9:35 pm

I didn't realize that nDan and my mother is 92 and she is a whiz on the computer

9:35 pm

really ! if steven hawking can use one so can he!

9:35 pm

but why bother when his staff can do it

9:35 pm

its not inherent to his job

9:36 pm

like how barbara walters never learned to drive...

9:36 pm

i never learned how to drive either

9:36 pm

she lived in Boston don't blame her

9:36 pm

i dunno, i think using computers is fairly inherent to understanding what the world is that we are living in today

9:36 pm

aha! there it is!!!

9:37 pm

I don't drive, either....

9:37 pm

i think that a modern president should be computer literate

9:37 pm

whoa really? the VP candidates are going to debate??

9:37 pm

and it's over

9:37 pm

can't imagine what I'd do without the internet

9:37 pm

Hang on! I've just been away talking to my son, Hursh, did you just say you have cancer?

9:37 pm

i knew someone would have to bring up prison

9:37 pm

that should be fu5!!!

9:37 pm

how about literate, ardilla?

9:37 pm

hahaha, pam

9:38 pm

won't that be fun hursh

9:38 pm

nono jac, i was spinning a fairy tale

9:38 pm

lol

9:38 pm

VP debate should be like going to the comedy club!!!!

9:38 pm

well, bush isnt pam, so thats not considered essential

9:38 pm

yes, there has always been a VP debate in teh works...

9:38 pm

nutty! when's the next babblecast? i'm listening to my first one. about recalls. highly informative

9:38 pm

it was a cross between jon stewart and house.

9:38 pm

it should be like watching dukakis debate

9:38 pm

VP debate should be fun

9:38 pm

It should be funny. Palin is an idiot and Biden chews on his feet a lot...

9:39 pm

i have no future plans for shows smaller

9:39 pm

i couldn't believe that FDR comment of biden's the other day *groan*

9:39 pm

precisely Pam!

9:39 pm

oh, nut, males can become religious brothers; surprised you didn't know that

9:39 pm

I didn't hear it, hursh

9:39 pm

Hursh - thank goodness for that. You scard me for a minute there.

9:39 pm

gasp! but i just signed up! i'm dressed and ready for entertainment

9:39 pm

sorry about that jacs

9:40 pm

sorry smallsy

9:40 pm

oh pam, he said that when the market crashed, FDR came on TV and ... and of course, FDR was not president, nor did people have TV

9:40 pm

I'm a bit conused aout Babblecasts now, nut.:(

9:41 pm

Nor was FDR president at that time, Hursh. :)

9:41 pm

UGH--yes, an example of foot chewing, hursh

9:41 pm

confused, I meant. Sorry, it's late here.

9:41 pm

he just inherited the calamity after the fact

9:41 pm

yeah, i said that.

9:41 pm

what's confusing?

9:41 pm

but who hasn't muddled history at some point

9:41 pm

Oh! Geez, somehow I skipped over that, lol.

9:42 pm

teehee

9:42 pm

Well, nut, for a start what site do we go to now? The last one I can see has my story on it.

9:42 pm

i bet adam and eve never muddled history

9:42 pm

helps to be first.

9:42 pm

you gotta go to the blog to keep up jac

9:43 pm

he was the biggest muddler

9:43 pm

Then, the other night, I went somewhere what required phones and listening etc...

9:43 pm

where's the blog?

9:43 pm

yes, but that's the one muddle he just couldn't make!

9:43 pm

What blog, nut? I've been a bit preoccupied lately, ou understand.

9:43 pm

babble-cast.blogspot.com, but i wouldn't look for new shows anytime soon

9:44 pm

Hey hey everyone!

9:44 pm

oh, probably on that thing that says "blog" huh

9:44 pm

furs

9:44 pm

oops

9:44 pm

one of my favorite cosby episodes was on at 9, which provided pleasant relief from the debate. the one where vanessa goes to baltimore to have BIG FUN with the wretched.

9:44 pm

I haven't done that in a looong time

9:45 pm

i just love watching the huxtables yell at their kids for doing boneheaded things!

9:45 pm

Nut, I've bookmarked tht now.

9:45 pm

Hi Wolfie.

9:45 pm

you are so tech savvy jac

9:46 pm

I am breaking in my new computer tonight

9:46 pm

GW!!!! hi and how are you? long time no "see"

9:46 pm

great show, still so relevant

9:46 pm

oh, don't break it wolfie, they're expensive

9:47 pm

isn't it interesting that they have biden summarize for obama and giuliani for mccain

9:47 pm

do they really? good heavens

9:47 pm

I am, Nut?? My son wouldn't agree with you, even though I did help write the first UK 'Net for Dummies' guides AND got him his first computer (an old Amiga).

9:47 pm

need a bottle of champagne to break over the bow?

9:47 pm

I just bought it via an online auction and am very pleased with it

9:48 pm

oh geez, i hate giuliani

9:48 pm

ooo, i just bookmarked it too. i should get to listen to a live babble cast as a reward. hint hint.

9:48 pm

West - LOL. 'We na4 this ship HMS Wolfie.

9:49 pm

good na4

9:49 pm

Hey joey -- doing pretty good here -- daughter is loving Kindergarten and I have made it through another fiscal quarter at work

9:49 pm

1) i'd need a cohost, 2) i'd need to be more awake, 3) i'd need to be in a better mood

9:49 pm

that is great - lots of things to be thankful for

9:50 pm

Nut - you lost your hubby not very long ago, why on earth would you be in a great mood? But we're here for hugs.

9:51 pm

woulf???? I was about to shut this thing off!!! *running hug at woulf*

9:51 pm

i'm in a bad mood cause i'm working uber overtime and my dishwasher broke

9:51 pm

1.i'll be your cohost! 2.i'll irritate you to keep you awake 3. #2 works for this one too. pickin' fights is good times

9:51 pm

9:51 pm

oops. not quite...

9:51 pm

I thought I was losing my beloved on Thursday. Scared the sh*t out of me. Then he seemed okay and, today, not so good again now. He's asleep for the moment.

9:52 pm

*braces for impact* **HUGS stid**

9:52 pm

9:52 pm

9:52 pm

**HUGS for all**

9:52 pm

9:53 pm

ty

9:53 pm

t Boone Pickens --texas oilman, big on alternative energy, acutally

9:53 pm

the oilman who's been pushing for wind power & alt energy sources

9:53 pm

what happened, jac?

9:54 pm

woulf, I know you are okay, and just really really busy -- saw your daughter is in kindergarten (already?!?) and ... just glad you're all okay.

9:54 pm

okey dokey artichokey! ooo we could talk about janet. the great morelli vs ranger debate. subpar to the debate tonight of course

9:54 pm

i about just typed it. how montana naive am i?? oy

9:54 pm

I think you should talk about that silly houdini-wannabe who hung himself upside down...

9:55 pm

that guy is just silly stidder

9:55 pm

silly girl...email...email

9:55 pm

so i heard something chilling today.

9:55 pm

'zactly -- a bit of silliness to offset your more obnoxious political-types...

9:55 pm

what's that hurshy?

9:56 pm

that is a great one, stid. maybe we could do an on-air practice.

9:56 pm

Hi Pam - he collapsed after the op but insisted on coming home some 5 hours later, against hospital advice. Now his operation site is balloonning alarmingly.

9:56 pm

we'll need a third host. i'll volunteer to houdinize myself and then report on it through out the cast

9:56 pm

oh Jac.... can't you just take him in???

9:57 pm

operation? I am out of the loop... If it's swelling, shouldn't you get him back to hospital?

9:57 pm

Thanks, stid -- it is nice to be missed, though it also stinks knowing that I am not able to be here as much as I used to be

9:57 pm

I can't be on tomorrow though, we are going out of town.

9:57 pm

i'm not guaranteeeering a show until smalls sends me her phone number...must make sure she won't try my patience tooo tooo much

9:57 pm

different methods. dos and donts. helpful hang-upside-down stuff.

9:57 pm

another reason energy independence is needed. so, we use so much gas and oil and the money flows into the middle east. well, apparently, the saudis wanted to give lots of money to berkeley for engineering research - on the condition that each endowed faculty member come share about their research in saudi arabia for a week or two each year, and that therefore no faculty could be women or jews.

9:57 pm

I can't be on as much either, Full-time school starting Tuesday... also helping in several middle-school classrooms on my "day off".

9:57 pm

I tried, pam - but it's a 6 hour wait for a doctor to call and he can't drive and I haven't driven for about 12 years.

9:58 pm

Ugh, jac.... what kind of operation did he have?

9:58 pm

Try-one's-patience is my Indian name

9:58 pm

I actually got the class I wanted, Woulf! I was on the wait list until this afternoon. Got an email at 5 saying they put me in. SOOOOO happy!

9:59 pm

Great for you, stid -- which class?

9:59 pm

nut, how about YOU send her YOUR phone number...

9:59 pm

If I have to I will call 999 (991 to you lot on other side of pond) but that might be a 3 hours wait. He'll sleep, hopefully, and I'll get our GP out when I ring at 9am.

9:59 pm

yah (as palin would say) mine is tried, i don't got no phone # yet

9:59 pm

wonder how that'd go over if it were Jews who wouldn't allow arabs or women lol

9:59 pm

because stid, i know i can call her for free, i don't want her to have to pay for the call

10:00 pm

and i guess what happened was that berkeley took the money, getting them to strike the women-and-jews bit, but, even though it's not in the writing, it's still... sort of... i mean, it's still sort of de facto

10:00 pm

I would have called an ambulance or driven him myself, but he didn't want that.

10:00 pm

"Microbial Ecology" at the Evergreen State College. I needed 4 credits biology, 4 lab credits and 4 credits in ecology or current science problems.... the class is 16 and does all of these!!!!

10:00 pm

Jac, sometimes you have to do what they don't want...

10:01 pm

well tell me what money can't buy these days....

10:01 pm

GREAT, stid!

10:01 pm

oh dear, jacula. i do hope he will be alright.

10:01 pm

Pam - he had an op on the crown jewels.

10:01 pm

wow hurshy. sounds like berkeley took the bait. bad news when a school like that sells out.

10:01 pm

souls come cheap

10:01 pm

Sounds very cool, Stid -- enjoy!!

10:01 pm

that explains why he doesn't mind the operation site swelling, then

10:02 pm

thanks woulf. and then I can worry about the literature and history and geography classes I need before I apply for the Master's in Teaching program. *sigh* I am REALLY going to miss my long days of leisure!

10:02 pm

ouch

10:03 pm

sorry, was that a bad joke? i'm like chandler...

10:03 pm

time to close my eyes,,,, ciao

10:03 pm

even minor "crown jewels" ops can be pretty painful...

10:03 pm

sweet dreams pam

10:03 pm

He does mind it swelling, Hursh!

10:03 pm

i'm thinking of bed now

10:03 pm

'Night Pam.

10:04 pm

oh hurshy... rofl... that was funny, but it shure did take me a while!

10:04 pm

then why did he not want help?

10:04 pm

nitey nite, Pam

10:04 pm

Nut - do you want any more stuff from me for Babblecast?

10:04 pm

thanks stid :)

10:05 pm

Hursh because or local ambulance service has his bestmate's sister on board.

10:05 pm

emailed!

10:05 pm

nope jac, it works really good for free now, i'm just run down by over time and things breaking and ike crashing through, i need to let the cast lie...arrrrrrrr

10:05 pm

ok ok ok...i'll call smalls and see if we can do this

10:06 pm

ohhh. oh dear.

10:06 pm

oh this is such an honor! first day of sign-up and i'm being considered for cohost. given this rate of success, i should have signed up for that president thing.

10:07 pm

Hursh - I think it's normal 'settling of bluid and bruising' a day after op. If I didn't think that, he'd be in hospital already.. again. I am keeping an eye on his sleeping form though, just hoping my whipping the blanket back doesn't wake him.

10:07 pm

smalls, where did you mail it???

10:07 pm

smaller, I would vote for you...

10:07 pm

same as the first one about the recall. did you get that one?

10:08 pm

thanks stid!! would you be my vp?

10:08 pm

Jac, I hope your beloved will be okay. I really really hope you can get some sleep, too.

10:08 pm

i got that one...i was going to reply that you were a dirty filthy...then i thought of pots and kettles

10:08 pm

HA! Not unless I get to wear pretty clothes and bring my kids to the office and... can't put my hair up anymore, perhaps I could color it though?

10:09 pm

haha nut!!

10:09 pm

do you think it means i'm too into house, that i feel as if i'm losing MY best friend because wilson is trying to ditch house?

10:09 pm

anyway, time for our movie. I hope it'll be good. V for Vendetta.

10:09 pm

Jac -- he is denying himself emergency care because of modesty!!!! That is ridiculous!!!

10:09 pm

stid, we'd have mandatory weekly spa days

10:09 pm

Stid - I hope I can, too., Ned to shop for food later.

10:09 pm

i'm voting for smalls'

10:10 pm

highlighting, color, massage, nails, the works.

10:10 pm

still no mail smalls

10:10 pm

it's good to have a platform you can really believe in

10:10 pm

sounds perfect. Can we get someone cute for Secretary of State? And someone smart for Sec. of Education. OH! And I want a good designer for Secretary of the Interior. It has been SOOO long since the Capitol had a make-over

10:11 pm

i believe in politicians who say yes instead of yah

10:12 pm

Wolfie - It might be that in this case but it wasn't when he collapsed with his underpants halfway up whilst dressing to leave after surgery on Thursday night. He really didn't care if the 3 nrses saw anything, he was more concerned if his groin dressing was going to turn red, as he told me.

10:12 pm

clue for ma7 pls?

10:12 pm

calling

10:12 pm

MA 7 -- like a politician. someone who spreads the sh** arount

10:13 pm

10:13 pm

tyvm

10:13 pm

10:14 pm

10:14 pm

I agree with you woulf -- about Jac's man. BUT... I suppose he's old enough to know if he wants medical attention or not.

10:14 pm

hello, does anyone have an icone clue?

10:15 pm

10:15 pm

icon?

10:15 pm

i am new to this and need help

10:16 pm

10:17 pm

first part of girl scout pin

10:17 pm

how many words do you have dog lover?

10

10:17 pm

Personally, stid, I think he needs medical attention and I did try to get it for him. The doc on line told me that, since he'd probably been more on his feet day after operation, blood was around and gravity would take it's course and bruising and blood staining an swelling were normal. I still want GP's diagnosis at 9am though! Even though man is sleeping.

10:17 pm

hi just all ready for your new year?

i am not good at this

10:18 pm

hi westie! almost...still have cleaning to do .....sigh

10:24 pm

oh great westie.......finally got hubby to watch it, he couldn't stop!

10:25 pm

As a citizen of so-called GREAT Britain, I'd like to not be affected by The Debate. However, I'm sure I will be, eventually.

10:25 pm

we have our candidates so I suppose it's good to hear them live

10:26 pm

doglover, i suggest that you read back through the log and follow the clues that other people have already left

10:26 pm

10:26 pm

just back -- someone wanted an icon clue? Here's mine

10:27 pm

doglover, what do you need? Have you gone to Help up above? Do you know about Lickety's list?

10:28 pm

scroll down below and see lickety

10:28 pm

well I agree westie but for those who do, let there at least be someone with some solid experience but not ready to kick the bucket either

10:28 pm

10:28 pm

Licekty's list gives the length of the word and the first two letters and the score

10:28 pm

lickety's list.. it helps in giving the length and the point total of a word along with a roster of other words beginning with the same first two starting letters

10:29 pm

10:35 pm

lol spoonfeeding men! we had a birthday party for my husband at a restaurant today,

10:35 pm

cannibal Do**** party + consonant

10:35 pm

like I didn't know that was coming

10:35 pm

eating toast and Clover here, trying to stay awake and suspecting I'll end up as the still asleep Baddie latr when things need to be sorted. My chore for day was hopping at Morrisons. The'll be open until 8pm so I will at the very least get the shopping done.

10:35 pm

at the end of the dinner, the waitress brought out his present from me--a twelve foot (4 M) ladder!

10:36 pm

hopping at Morrisons? Translation, please!

10:36 pm

LOL jarp -- was he just thrilled to pieces?

10:36 pm

I meant shopping, jilli, as you very well knew.

10:36 pm

go Pini go

11:09 pm

wtg diz

11:09 pm

pini, have you learned how to use OneLook?

11:09 pm

haven't heard of that one

11:09 pm

I don't mind a bit giving clues, y' know, nor do others, but if you're independent like I am, you might like to try it

11:10 pm

hi pini

11:10 pm

http://www.onelook.com/ you can put in some letters, and ? marks for each additional letter

11:11 pm

Tyger...when the grid is hard like this one (for me) I don't like asking for clues for everything...so sometimes I do like being a loner...

11:11 pm

...until time runs short! ;)

11:11 pm

hi ardilla

11:11 pm

the default gives you ALL results, but it helps to click for "common words" - gives more manageable results

11:11 pm

;)

11:11 pm

sometimes it works when morewords and the other lists of words by length don't get it

11:11 pm

Hi Pini!

11:12 pm

ty for the tip tyger

11:12 pm

you've seen me ask for clues, so you know I'll do it if I hafta, but I try to get as much as I can alone :)
