1:03 am

i just wish he had done this months ago but then again mortgage rates have dropped over one and a half percent in the last month so that makes it a little better for me

he should pay up, kiwi but if you're happy, good riddance, I guess

2:38 am

I did treat one of the staff to his BD lunch Thursday, much to the chagrin of others. I told one lady that as soon as she learns to eat regular food, I'd be happy to treat her too...she's on a yogurt diet, and no meat...and not a vegetarian either, just insanely picky...and she agreed!

5:51 am

wb Hobbitata!

5:51 am

dog flopped, nice walk had by all down by the harbour

5:51 am

I trust everyone is properly spent Ata ?

5:52 am

yep! and husband is "ill" just to add to the count

Lovely Ata

5:53 am

he's always "ill" after I've been ill

5:53 am

Oh no. Not a sick man. The end times.....

5:53 am

the 2 other 8's are an se and a tr but I haven't found them yet

5:53 am

he has a headache. this is worth staying off work for apparently. He has the same bug as me, also apparently

5:54 am

poor lad.

5:54 am

seems like the Ata family has been through some tr8

5:55 am

absolutely. especially husband. he's very ill, you know

5:56 am

still don't see it.

5:56 am

You're not really ill unless something needs amputation.

5:56 am

funny, the first day I had this bug, I was lying in bed wanting to die. He's playing on his playstation ...

5:57 am

Eva, a latiny sounding emotional damage

5:57 am

english thankyou on the end of tr6.24

5:57 am

LOl, bless. This is what they refer to as 'man's flu'

5:57 am

Thanks for the nudge Lynx. :D

5:57 am

urf, I *know*. He gets it far too much

5:58 am

have to go looking for the tr6/24 first

5:58 am

emotional damage, therapy support team needed to move on.....

5:58 am

talking of amputation, sister is definitely ill LOL. She's going back into hospital tomorrow for another op. When asked whether they would be able to save her arm, dr replied: "well ... we'll give it a good go!" Encouraging, eh??!

5:59 am

tr6 bad upset, severe illness, ends in opp of pa

5:59 am

There's an optimistic maybe.....

5:59 am

got it! Thanks lynxx!

6:00 am

now just have to find the se8

6:00 am

give it a good go!? did someone smack that man across the face!

6:00 am

absolutely *facepalm*. so when she wakes up from her ops, she never quite knows how many arms she's got!

6:00 am

He makes it sound as if she has a spare one or something.

6:00 am

I suppose it's better than saying "no"!

6:01 am

One one expect a better response than that. She must be so worried.

6:01 am

se8 compound - chair & friend/partner

6:01 am

really really worried! but it's got to the point where we all just have to laugh about it, it's so stupid and prolonged

thanks lynxxx

6:01 am

can't believe I didn't see that, but I didn't. Thanks again!

6:02 am

what the heck sort of word is that??!

6:02 am

No - thankyou for giving us the starts Eva

still need one more 8 tho

6:03 am

the un8 - when your hair is well brushed

6:03 am

Same here Nono. Ata, perhaps sending Vinnie and Guido to see him and persuade him to be a tad more encouraging would help.

and found it! thanks

6:04 am

thankyou Lyn, I didn't have that one

6:04 am

Good god. Ithought I tried that. Ack! Muchos grassyass Lynx.

6:04 am

what's funny is that that *is* encouraging for that particular surgeon, compared to some of the things he's said in the past. I can't rememer any, but there have been some shockers

6:05 am

Ata, in case I miss you later , I truly hope that the operation/ treatment for your sister goes well and she is not left bereft.

6:05 am

gosh Lyn, another 8 for me

6:05 am

Well, I hope what he lacks in people skills, he makes up for with surgical talent.

6:06 am

I think she's be ok this time, I have a good feeling about this one

6:06 am

and yes, Lori, he's one of the best best BEST surgeons in the UK. That's why we put up with him :)

ag8 x2, ma8, se8, sq8 x2, tr8 and un8 ExWren

6:08 am

ag8!! eeep *looks*

Sorry side track everyone: http://tinyurl.com/5zyfxe and http://tinyurl.com/5r79fm

6:09 am

aha! found!

6:10 am

I always find words harder to see if I have to rotate anti-clockwise

6:11 am

One day DrG will instal a Rotate Button for this game

6:11 am

wouldn't that be nice!

6:12 am

and the ability to click on the grid with a mouse

6:12 am

I'd like to have a detonation button for the grid.....

6:13 am

*ker-plam!* no Qu! *swoosh* no M!

6:13 am

It must be easy, even Wordsplay has it and that doesn't seem to be as sophisticated as this

6:13 am

ka - boom!

HEY!!! my grid just disappeared Lori

6:14 am

*ker-poof*! target WILL be a word!

6:14 am

ata, I had the best plastic surgeon east of Montreal, but he was a terrible communicator. Talented surgeon though.

6:14 am

lol Nono, problem solved now! :D

6:15 am

I'd rather she has a good surgeon than a good communicator. But we're so used to James, we can translate into normal language now!

6:15 am

a detonation button would be especially tehrapeutic on 're' grid days

6:16 am

plastic surgeon? ooo what happened? are you ok from whenever?

6:17 am

He had an absolutely dry wit interpreter intern though. After a long tedious explanation of broken bones in my face, and a too long technical explanation, the Intern looked at me and said "he's going to fix you". lolol

6:17 am

lol! yayy for interns!

6:17 am

yah yah, car accident, years ago, ancient history. Funny now, wasn't then. I'm always up for a laugh, even in dark times.

6:18 am

He was a very funny guy. I couldn't talk, but he read my eyes, and I laughed inside. Loved that guy.

6:18 am

oh good, I mean oh good it was years ago!

6:19 am

Still with the poopy grid though. Maybe I'll go look for markdowns. Something I can actually see!

6:20 am

LOL good idea! It'll still be here *lurking* when you get back!

6:20 am

Was just thinking back...I think I have fallen for all my 'good' doctors too...maybe its a thing

6:20 am

oh it is. they make you feel better!

6:20 am

28 left, and seeing nada, zilch, zip. How many left for you lynx, ATa?

6:21 am

53 gah

6:21 am

38 here, still finding the odd one but about to give up for the night

58 here and slowing down

6:22 am

I'm missing a Q and it's annoying me

6:22 am

So many phantoms in this grid.

6:22 am

Got the 6 that ends in a vowel Ata?

6:23 am

yep, I'm sure I'm missing something obvious like usual!

6:23 am

6:23 am

yep yep yep *kicks the Q*

6:30 am

*smug* husband is at home, ill. so normally hobbit goes upstairs and snuggles with him cos he's on the big comfy warm bed, but today, she went up to say hi then came back and is sitting with me. *smug* she loves her mom.

6:31 am

she knows who is walking her

6:31 am

and husband still insists she's *his* dog *shakes head*

6:34 am

how's Stew? how long have you had him now??

6:36 am

Got him middle of last December so he is quite settled now..seems to take 6-12 months. Still wouldn't trust him at an open door or off lead though, they have quite poor recall. But he's a lovely boy even though he does hog the couch

6:37 am

wow, nearly a year already!

6:38 am

they have awful recall! I had a lurcher for a while (until he started chasing sheep, so we had to give him back to the rescue centre *big sigh*) and he just *went* off lead.

6:38 am

and they get very looooong on couches

6:40 am

lol - He does manage to scrunch up if I am laying on the couch already

6:40 am

I love all sorts of lurchers / greyhounds etc when they scrunch up. they seem all legs at odd angles

6:42 am

I'm giving up for the nite - can't even find the last 2 H's - goodnite everyone, bye Ata, have a good day

7:46 am

it creeps up on you :)

7:46 am

Sneaky tile!

7:46 am

Qs always are :)

7:47 am

Especially when one's opponent uses it in Scrabble for big points. My friend and I played 2 games on Friday and in one game her first 2 plays = bingos. How rude.

7:48 am

absolutely! one is bad enough!

7:48 am

if you got it you have to play it...have to

7:49 am

1/2 way! done for now

7:49 am

I wanted to forfeit and start over. But I ended up losing by 100 pts = 2 50 pt bonuses.

7:49 am

yes, but you should at least be apologetic :P

bye phandmd - hb

7:49 am

7:49 am

Yes, of course. No we were laughing a lot, we always do when we play Scrabble.

8:06 am

8:06 am

hi Scrabbler

8:06 am

hi josh

8:07 am

clue for ag 8/50 please

Makes upset

And hi again!

8:08 am

ty

8:08 am

Helloooo Josh.

8:08 am

Hi MG.

8:09 am

TY, MG, I got 4 words from your clue.

8:09 am

brb, want some lunch. Think I might screw the diet today and make a toasted cheese sandwich. Its that kind of cold day

Four?? I have three...

8:10 am

I got ta4 and ta5 too.

Oh!

8:10 am

I got ag8 past tense now.

8:12 am

clue for the last ag 5/14 please

Well, I know I am missing an ag.... but the lats one I have is ag + female spanish river

8:13 am

TY for ag5

Everyone wish me luck at the doctor in two hours. Told him via e-mail that I would like, after these three months, to see an orthopedist about my bacvk and shoulder, since I can't sleep and all. He said I should come in and talk to him first about the possibilities. I mentioned that I have done so three times already, but what the heck, in I go...

8:16 am

Do you need his permission to see an orthopdeist?

Yes.

Have to take in a referral paper.

8:17 am

Tell your doc to speak with me. I'll tell him what to do.

Hmmm, what would you say?

I'm tired of just being given painkillers that don't help much anyway. Want some images or something, at least a consult...

8:18 am

I would say: this woman has tried time and conservative treatment, is still in discomfort, now let an orthopedist evaluate her.

8:18 am

is it chronic pain, loss of mobility?? monkey?

8:18 am

Yep, time for some imaging, I think.

My shoulder has been giving me off and on trouble for years, but the back is "new"-- three months ago I put soap in the dishwasher and couldn't stand up. Since then we've tried antiinflammatories, tramadol, and physiotherapy. I stioll cannot walk well and it's getting worse again, fairly rapidly. The shoulder is now a constant thing and locks up every few days. The doctor just keeps saying there'd be nothing to see on an x-ray.

8:20 am

Is that your son in your icon? so precious and did you paint that chair??? monkey

That is Walter, my son, yes. HE painted the chair.

8:22 am

True, an X-ray might not show anything, but an MRI can reveal much more--let an orthopod make that decision.

He's 4.

8:23 am

WOW! Awesome...he's gorgeous! (Permitted to say about a lad??) I'd write to you an e-mail with some thoughts about your pain if I had your e-mail..

That's what I want too. I'll be Very Persuasive. I had an MRI last year for a family history of AVM's; it's not like we don't have a center for that ro anything!

Thanks. My e-mail has been posted often enough I might as well do it again: k.m.cooper@chello.nl

8:23 am

did that MRI show anything?

Meanwhile, I discovered teh insurance will cover 500 Euros of alternative therapy, so I'm seeing an acupuncturist on Thursday.

No, thank goodness, I am free of teh family curse!

But I wrote my cousin to say so, and he was shocked at how often it turns up in his side of the family, and badgered his doctor into tests. He doesn't have "atypical migraines"-- he has a cavernous hemangioma! Operable, thank goodness. But exvidence of "repeated" bleeds already.

And I got to keep a nifty CD of my brain. Going to do some artwork with it.

8:27 am

I have auditory organs for upper E... any clue for the other?

8:27 am

I must get going now, kids. I have a tennis match then I work from 1-8 and it will be non-stop craziness in the office with colds/coughs etc.

eq.... To compare evenly.

Have fun and work well! "See" you soon!

8:28 am

n, the other word off the upper E

8:28 am

TY for that, MG.

Oh, the other form the upper E. Sorry, distracted. No, I need that one too.

8:28 am

kje, et = a socialist

8:28 am

9:27 am

I think Dr Scrabs went off to work

9:27 am

is ANYONE still here? heh

9:27 am

good morning everyone

9:28 am

hi flosey

9:31 am

afternoon everyone

9:31 am

Hi Katie

9:32 am

hi katie

9:33 am

i'm not a doctor, but i've seen every episode of ER and every episode of house (most of them multiple times)

9:34 am

if your problem happens to be one that i've seen on there, you're in luck!

9:34 am

that is kinda like going to med school isn't it?

9:34 am

practically

9:35 am

heh, no real problems, just more of a question...

9:35 am

well, ask us, and then ask a real doctor later

9:35 am

but dont do anything till you talk to the doctor..lol

9:35 am

hi ruru and hurshy

9:36 am

morning floe

9:36 am

hi flo

9:36 am

ok, well, on the palm-side of my middle finger, 1st joint down from the fingertip, i have a lump underneath the joint... im guessing its just a broken blood vessel (i have had the lump come + go several times before) but i was just curious if i was right... theres no real bruising, but the lump is sore...

9:36 am

as longs as everyone is saying hi, I will too, hi

9:37 am

is it a smushy lump?

9:37 am

hi bichon

9:37 am

dunno, too tender to want to press on it...

9:37 am

is the skin discolored?

9:37 am

i know i have a blood vessel right there, because when my finger is lump-less, i can see the blood vessel there

9:38 am

no discoloration...just the usual blood-vessel blue color

9:38 am

the whole lump is the blue color

9:39 am

have you ever consulted a MD about it?

9:39 am

its a small lump...no discoloring from the norm

9:39 am

it's much more fun asking us all to guess :P

9:40 am

never have, seen the doc about it...always just assumed its a broken blood vessel -- i bruise very easily...

9:40 am

well, if it is smushy, my vote is it is NOT cancer.

9:40 am

also the coming and going indicates not cancer.

9:40 am

IMHO, I would call it a boo-boo. If it doesn't get better in a week, see the doctor.

9:41 am

probably lupus

9:41 am

strangely, now that i actually LOOK at my hands, i think the ring finger next to it has some bruising... lump-free, that one is, though... lol

9:42 am

are there any au words?

9:43 am

ill just add it to the list of things to ask my doctor whenever i finally get there... i have random maladies that appear + disappear at their own whim...lol

9:43 am

swelling ankles, dry skin, lumpy fingers...

9:45 am

no au words Ata

9:45 am

ty flosey

9:46 am

I can stop trying to look for some now!

9:47 am

if you can ingratiate yourself.. why can't you graitate it too...lol

10:03 am

Happy birthday, Teddy Roosevelt! He uttered the throwaway phrase "good to the last drop," after enjoying some coffee during a visit to the South and the company selling the coffee trademarked the comment. He spoke of the White House as a "bully pulpit," some of his supporters as the "lunatic fringe" and announced he was running again in 1912 by saying he was throwing his "hat in the ring," creating phrases with us still.

10:03 am

need a bunch of ga's then.. have the others

10:05 am

"We cannot afford to differ on the question of honesty if we expect our republic permanently to endure. Honesty is not so much a credit as an absolute prerequisite to efficient service to the public. Unless a man is honest, we have no right to keep him in public life; it matters not how brilliant his capacity." -- Theodore Roosevelt

10:56 am

thanks erda

10:56 am

hello owl

10:57 am

TY hoot... easier to tell you what i do not like... not a fan of eggs, and don't eat a lot of pork... but love fish... chicken and beef are fine... do vegetarian frequently just for ease

10:58 am

not the screen name I would pick for you...

10:58 am

mommy dearest is more suitable...lol

10:58 am

ouch

10:58 am

sniff sniff

10:58 am

lol

10:58 am

knock it off joan...

10:59 am

yours would be?

10:59 am

Hmm - maybe I should put my Mystery Quiche in too. Good way to get rid of leftovers and no crust so calories are fairly low. Eggs are not my favorite either but The stuff you use for Chinese cooking makes them usually not taste like eggs.

10:59 am

hmmmm thinking..

11:00 am

un clue for 7?

11:00 am

i have the un 8 but cant get 7.

11:00 am

true hoot... can disguise them... will occasionally do a vegetarian scamble with enough good stuff to disguise the taste of the eggs... my hell would be boiled eggs

11:00 am

I do love pork but chicken is a good substtute if you lessen cooking times.

11:01 am

un + ma5

11:01 am

un + past tense of ma4

11:01 am

The closest the Chinese come to boiled eggs is 1000 year old eggs or tea eggs. Still taste like eggs

11:01 am

ty got it.

11:02 am

ro7 please?

11:02 am

OK, rethinking... hell is 1000 year old eggs

11:02 am

guess it's the first one I'm missing

11:02 am

at 5 10 second one?

11:02 am

ro7 - short song or poem... french word

11:03 am

Well they aren't really 1000 yo - but still my idea of rotten eggs

11:03 am

ty

11:03 am

at5 - essential oil

11:03 am

yw flos

11:04 am

huh? what oil is the essential one? i love olive oil..but not in grid.

11:04 am

bye hoot

11:06 am

11:06 am

da5 - singular of the previous 4

11:08 am

Nurse Ratchett...

11:08 am

kje i dont get it. previous 4 is a small sweet fruit that grows on palm trees, not coconut.

11:08 am

nah, I don't believe it

11:09 am

dunno... can't think of anything cute

11:09 am

sorry... da4 - piece of information...da5 - its singular form

11:10 am

the da 5 is not near that da 4. i am not getting it.

11:10 am

Fish relates to an expression that when we miss an obvious word, or a plural or a past tense etc, then we should be hit with a fish.

11:53 am

12

11:53 am

11

11:53 am

hi mg

11:53 am

10

11:53 am

Kje, the doctor wants me to try diazepam for a week before seeing an orthopedist. The doctor said I can have my usual glass or two of wine anyway, but the package insert says no. What's your view? I'd be taking 4 mg. for the night.

11:54 am

Mixed results in a web dsearch.

11:54 am

my view is.... i wouldn't have given you valium

11:55 am

yay flosey... almost there

11:55 am

hello all

11:55 am

Yeah, I have mixed feelings about his handling of this, but his view is that I am suffering from muscle spasms and if this doesn't work (just at night) I can go see the orthopedist. I said I was willing to give it a week. It's just for at night, because this makes it very hard to sleep.

11:55 am

I would have prescribe more wine

11:56 am

8

11:56 am

Hello peri.

11:56 am

hu + partner

11:56 am

good idea, ruru... works at the same receptor and tastes better

11:56 am

So, OK, should i lay off the wine or is a glass or two safe enough with 4 mg.?

11:57 am

i prefer vodka, but whatever works

11:57 am

follow what your doc advised you, mg

11:57 am

I should try what he says for a couple days at least. You never know, he said he's seen it work in this kind of case...

11:57 am

thanks monkey

11:57 am

OK, he said it was OK.

11:57 am

11:58 am

11:58 am

12:07 pm

could someone clue the un8, please?

12:07 pm

nm got it

12:08 pm

hi again :)

12:09 pm

Hello Ata. You're in the grid backwards, forwards and every which way.

12:09 pm

I know! It's fab :)

12:10 pm

haz, I have a very random question while you're here

12:10 pm

I'd be smug about it if it happened to me.

12:10 pm

Okay. What's the random question?

12:10 pm

does Mr Haz's vet practice have large animal vet nurses? Or do all the vet nurses deal with the pets etc

12:11 pm

The animal nurses tend to concentrate on small animals, although they would maybe help out on caesars on sheep if they're being done in the surgery.

12:12 pm

hmm ty, I think that would be the case

12:12 pm

If an operation or procedure is being done on the farm, they would usually rely on farmers to provide the extra help.

12:13 pm

I'm having a period of going back to my years-old wish of retraining as a vet or vet nurse. Not that I can remotely afford it!

12:13 pm

It would be horrendously expensive, you're right!

12:14 pm

I know *sigh* it's always the one thing that's stopping me

12:14 pm

but then I thought that training as a vet nurse would be much cheaper (it is). but more boring.

12:14 pm

The vet nurses do study for a qualification while undertaking on the job training, but a lot of their time is spent cleaning up you-know-what.

12:15 pm

exactly. I could do 95% of a vet nurse job now

12:15 pm

They used to do work experience for school girls but found that most of them thought that vet nursing consisted of holding a pup's paw and whispering sweet nothings.

12:16 pm

you mean it's not? darn

12:16 pm

Your illusions shattered?

12:16 pm

absolutely

12:17 pm

I think an ability to deal with mess and nasty smells would be high on the list of requirements.

12:17 pm

ata... if you are interested in being a human nurse instead, almost every place now has huge incentives for nurse school do to an international shortage... lots of scholarships, lots of cost cuts, higher post-graduate pay... just a thought

12:17 pm

it's funny, when I had the chance to train as a vet, I wasn't old enough or mature enough to be good at it. Now, I'd be really good at it, but can't afford to do it

12:18 pm

bbl

12:19 pm

Hmmm. It's a problem. It's also one of the most over-subscribed courses at university. Before they would even look at you, you'd have to have done lots of work experience in farms etc.

12:19 pm

*sigh*

12:19 pm

Bye peri.

12:19 pm

not that any uni round here even *does* vet courses

12:20 pm

True.

12:21 pm

so it's all a dream, really

12:22 pm

This is where people weigh in with talk of holding onto your dream and you can do it if you really really want to, but I won't!

12:23 pm

lol yes .... actually I wonder if anywhere round here does do vet degrees that I don't know about. interesting to look anyway

12:24 pm

There's Cambridge, Bristol, London, Glasgow, Edinburgh for starters.

12:24 pm

And UCD in Dublin, of course.

12:24 pm

nope. lol. London is the nearest

12:25 pm

***I used to believe in dreams, but alas I came here and still am missing 13 words. So much for dreams..***

12:25 pm

Well, those 13 words needn't stay missing. Your dream can come true.

12:25 pm

you were hoping they had magically filled themselves in?

12:26 pm

Yah ya, motivation, hard work, dedications....pfffttttt

12:26 pm

4 of them are 7's, so first I'll check for plurals, not that I've ever missed any before....

12:27 pm

looooool

12:27 pm

I'd be terribly surprised if you had, Lori. Most unlike you.

12:27 pm

It's this kind of suport that brings me back each day.

12:28 pm

I've just found a nice clue for un7 - Sprite's lady dog is this.

12:28 pm

Of course, those who don't know about the story will say 'huh?' to that clue.

12:30 pm

I have 2 ro 7's, does that cover it?

12:30 pm

nope

12:31 pm

Thanks, stid. Have you been finding time to do any more recently?

12:44 pm

I think my trigger finger is broken.

12:44 pm

Right get the white jacket ready girls .......

12:44 pm

go flosey go! *sneaking breaths in behind everyone's back*

12:44 pm

Don't be afraid to use the paddles.

12:44 pm

White jacket or strait jacket?

12:45 pm

Paddles? Is this a discipline issue now?

12:45 pm

Go flosey!

12:45 pm

no vi, this full-time + three credits AND volunteering 1/4 time in the school AND being a mom isn't conducive to creativity. *bummed out mama look*

12:45 pm

"Row, row, row the boat"

12:45 pm

Poor, poor stidmama. I would argue that in my experience lack of creativity isn't conducive to being a good mom, but of course one does hat one can.

12:45 pm

Pouring a brandy... White jacket Haz I dont want my clothes messed up. now just sip this Lori

12:46 pm

Singing. While Lori chokes and Vicuna's here. Is this appropriate, FM?

12:46 pm

Darn, have I got the wrong end of the story again?

12:46 pm

*what* not hat. Hats are irrelevant.

12:46 pm

LOL vi! true enough! actually, I only have five more weeks of this schedule, and then I will drop to halftime school for me, which will free up my days for fun things.

12:46 pm

2

12:46 pm

Thats enough Lori, pass the rest to FM I think she needs it

12:46 pm

***eyes caitlyn's beverage suspiciously***

12:47 pm

lol, yes FM is clearly incoherent.....

12:47 pm

No its okay I tried it first ..hic

12:47 pm

Hi Erin,

12:47 pm

*really not breathing now* *holds up sign: go flosey go!*

12:47 pm

Better the wrong end of the story than the wrong end of the scalpel, as Lori's getting.

12:47 pm

Oh? I sound good to me....

12:47 pm

Hi Erin, it's Mary Kay from Madison.

12:48 pm

12:48 pm

12:48 pm

12:50 pm

12:53 pm

*drinks cognac and falls asleep*

12:53 pm

12:54 pm

Hey ATa :)

12:55 pm

well, I am down to 121 (that means I hit 100 just now) and am going to go finish another bit of studying before I play some more. I am making an outline of the chapter I don't understand because I can't answer the questions.

12:55 pm

truth be told, I don't understand the questions! LOL but the textbook is for advanced students, and the teachers are okay with me being completely new.

12:55 pm

Good luck, stidmama!

12:55 pm

I just have to demonstrate that I am working hard and learning a lot. Which I am.

12:56 pm

1:03 pm

You're welcome, phandmd.

1:03 pm

phone.....back in a mo

1:03 pm

You see? Mention Vi singing and caitlyn disappears. It must be hard, her being Welsh and all, to hear songs slaughtered.

1:03 pm

lol

1:04 pm

That was just me, calling her on the phone to sing to her.

1:04 pm

so TR's done now I must go, do some research and make apple butter

1:04 pm

**Hallelujah** are we ready for the masssed babble choir singing this .....?

1:04 pm

Hello!...is there a problem with the ga6/27?

1:04 pm

A problem? Has it all been eaten already?

1:05 pm

ga6/27 is French for cake, so no problem...

1:05 pm

Bye, phandmd.

1:05 pm

well phan, babble is a good procrastination tool... but maybe you can do mine and i'll do yours

1:05 pm

I think a French nerd should be a dorque.

1:05 pm

only if the cream has gone off phae

1:05 pm

I don't know KJE, I bet your paper is way more difficult than mine

1:06 pm

well, my list won't take it...i'll keep trying

1:06 pm

lol

1:06 pm

never know phan... is it worth the gamble? LOL

1:06 pm

No, I don't like taking risks too much

1:07 pm

still on phone....wont be long

1:07 pm

Only one more verse!

1:07 pm

50

1:07 pm

Go, Selendrile, go!

1:08 pm

Hey all.

1:08 pm

^_^

1:09 pm

I hate Ns

1:09 pm

Who sung "Hanging on the telephone" - wasn't it Blondie?

1:10 pm

Apparently so.

1:10 pm

think so

1:10 pm

Hey, Haz, do you have an apron pattern?

1:10 pm

Its the aunt from Watford.........95 and going strong and still talking.........help

1:11 pm

Tell her you First Aid skills are meeded caot :)

1:11 pm

lol

1:11 pm

See I can't spell your name right ..... help me!!! :)

1:12 pm

"The Aunt from Watford" sounds like a novel by Hardy or someone.

1:12 pm

Where is hubby when he is needed

1:13 pm

Bea - asking Haz for apron patterns is just so not going to work - she will not compute the basic functional request there.

1:13 pm

LOL! I know. Adding a little levity to my day. =)

1:13 pm

And I'm sure it ends tr5/14-cally.

1:14 pm

Oh to the UK based TV subscribers - who watched Little Dorret last night?

1:14 pm

me

1:14 pm

What did you think?

1:15 pm

nope

1:15 pm

I enjoyed and was drawn in as it is not a novel I am familiar with

1:15 pm

Couldnt follow a lot of it , havent read it so dont know the story...you

1:16 pm

I have an almost pathological dislike of Dickens

1:16 pm

Its on Thurs i think so will try again

1:17 pm

I'm so glad I'm not the only one, Ata.

1:17 pm

I love Anthony Trollope, just have never warmed to Dickens.

1:18 pm

I find hi hard to read but try from time to time and I think this

1:18 pm

BBC production will do it justice

1:18 pm

i love the dickens... *feels lonely*

1:18 pm

me too. I love trollope. but I just *can't* do Dickens

1:18 pm

Just reading back to see the apron request. They sell aprons in shops.

1:18 pm

still on phone............

1:19 pm

Hugs hurshy with Dickens hugs

1:19 pm

I've tried to like him but I just find him wearisome.

1:19 pm

But the real question, of course, is what you would need an apron *for.*

1:19 pm

LOL! Thanks, Haz.

1:19 pm

tyvm FM

1:19 pm

Looking for a "vintage" pattern.

1:19 pm

What would I need an apron for? To cook in, of course, or if you're doing some messy housework.

1:19 pm

ditto

1:20 pm

how vintage is vintage?

1:20 pm

And why would you do either of those things, pray tell?

1:20 pm

These days Hurshy - proba 1950's 60's

1:20 pm

I'm looking for one that criss-crosses in back without tying.

1:21 pm

Because (a) my family likes to eat and (b) it's nice to have a clean house.

1:21 pm

Speaking of duties, my time has come. I'm off to meet the spawn. Later, all!

1:21 pm

Probably from the 50's.

1:21 pm

haz just has an answer for everything, doesn't she?

1:21 pm

Those children again!

1:21 pm

Both valid points, Haz, but does the benefit really outweigh the cost?

1:21 pm

I don't have an answer for the square root of 3460958909808.

1:22 pm

Must better to starve in squalor (a phantom today) than lift a finger in work to change it!

1:22 pm

The benefits of a clean house outweigh the dangers of succumbing to germs. They're everywhere.... multiplying.

1:22 pm

Sigh. yet in about 15 minutes I will be racing madly around the playground until my lungs burst. It kind of makes housework look good all of a sudden.

1:22 pm

and doing square roots!

1:23 pm

I know! Tricky little critters.

1:23 pm

(No no, Haz, we can learn to coexist with the germs! But I'm out of time to argue I'm afraid.)

1:23 pm

Bye!

1:23 pm

Bye Vi !!

1:24 pm

bye

1:24 pm

Bye Vi.

1:24 pm

finished Ns! whee!

1:26 pm

Ah - lots to talk about?

1:26 pm

Have you told her about using the chest spreaders and paddles?

1:27 pm

You cant get a word in........

1:27 pm

There are all these strange people I talk to on the computer all ove the world and they say hello :)

1:27 pm

I think she'd be impressed.

1:28 pm

Does she breathe regularly? You need to pick your moment when you see her chest expand.

1:28 pm

nu6s - one an animal babblet, one simialr to an mu6

1:28 pm

But that's right. She's on the phone.

1:28 pm

1:28 pm

No chest signals.

1:29 pm

1:36 pm

Misconception?

1:36 pm

1:36 pm

the immaculate misconception

1:36 pm

Miss Conception - the title of Britain's most fertile single mother.

1:36 pm

Really, Haz, you should know better than to leave out the hyphens--Sprite's mother to be (a )dog?

1:37 pm

hurshy,it misled me too.

1:37 pm

You're right, hetty, I should know better! How are you?

1:37 pm

hetty - how good to see you.

1:37 pm

Hi hetty !!

s7 body of water + sandpaper rating with two letters reversed

2:50 pm

coarse, smooth ... ummmm ...

2:51 pm

se7 - all set about with water

2:51 pm

(compound word)

2:51 pm

TY pooch - now I remember that!

don't they rate sandpaper with like 100 **** or 150 ****?

2:52 pm

well! what a word!

2:52 pm

yes Pooch

2:52 pm

hello friends! ten minute break...

2:53 pm

part of Aust nat anthem - "our land is gi** by sea"

2:53 pm

hi Stid!

2:53 pm

Although funnily enough, in my family the word that pooch alludes to without the letters reversed is indeed a real word. A synonym for sand, especially as found in spinach that hasn't been thoroughly washed!

2:53 pm

ooh! I found an 8!!!!!

2:53 pm

Too bad Enable doesn't take it.

2:54 pm

yay stiddy!

can anyone clue the ta5/14 plz? It's my last one and I am completely stuck.

2:54 pm

2:48, sandieangel.

5:28 pm

Hi fellow Babblers. smiddy, be careful; too many words in the wrong box means you spend time in the penalty box (like I always do!) :-)

lol

5:28 pm

smiddy didn't know a lot of words!

5:29 pm

why do i get the funny feeling im the youngest person here?

5:29 pm

smiddy is getting some slack cut as they are new :-)

5:29 pm

go me XD

5:30 pm

whats the deal with the numbers on the tiles?

5:31 pm

that's how many points they are worth

5:31 pm

smiddy, if you are playing; it doesn't matter what your age is. If you are going to trash the site, then we get cranky. There are many young players; we don't mind

5:31 pm

I'm getting confused on what you need trans. The word clued earlier was the last he5 there is one above it which is a pl of the he4 which means to listen

5:31 pm

*wonders if hurshy is still about*

5:31 pm

im not trashing the sight...i was asking why theres numbers on the tiles...

5:31 pm

if you go the help up top you'll get a lot of pointers

5:32 pm

do you play Scrabble ? this is a cross between Scrabble and boggle. Scrabble has numbers on the letters

5:33 pm

I don't think you were being accussed smiddy, we just have problems with others sometimes :-)

5:33 pm

oh right...fair does...-hi5-

5:33 pm

*accused (hangs he** in shame at bad spelling)

5:35 pm

Katie, my bad spelling sometimes shows why my words don't work!

5:37 pm

seriously they have just forecast snow here for tomorrow!!

5:38 pm

brrr!

5:38 pm

do you get snow there? Or is it just early?

5:38 pm

im making up words and it works haha

5:39 pm

good for you!

5:39 pm

WTG, smiddy! :)

5:39 pm

that's called monkeying!

5:39 pm

5:40 pm

heat

5:40 pm

WTG= Way to Go!

5:40 pm

woops my bad

5:41 pm

5:41 pm

Whoops! Come on smiddy, off to the PB (penalty box!)

5:42 pm

5:42 pm

well if y'all wanna keep givin' away words, at least give me something i don't have yet!! :-)

5:43 pm

lmao

5:43 pm

I know, smiddy. That's why I said "come on" the PB is fictional, but it's said to have chocolate there (I usually stop chatting for a while once I mess up

5:44 pm

ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh right

5:50 pm

good question, cause if he's trying to grill some chicken with it, it could REALLY be a long evening.

5:51 pm

just to use it smiddy *shakes head sadly* seems to think hitting return 15 times will get it to find a track he doesn't know the name of

5:51 pm

if he knows any of the name or the artist type it in the search bar

5:52 pm

6:01 pm

6:01 pm

smiddy are you in Ireland right now?

6:01 pm

opps

6:01 pm

really lil*? They are originally from So. America and were designated as fish be the Spanish Conquistadors so that the natives could eat them during Lent

6:03 pm

Lil*, I just looked them up and they were imported into Louisiana in the 1930's.

6:03 pm

i got both n from nottom left corner ^^

6:04 pm

found in N. America, Europe, Asia and Africa... orig just South America but introduced to other countries by fur ranchers

6:04 pm

they flourish in swampy areas

6:04 pm

I bet they won't hit my state (MN) for a whiile

6:05 pm

no way, Nef! but it's very much like a mink

6:06 pm

Nef, that tidbit about nu5 being designated fish so they could be eaten during Lent is very interesting

6:07 pm

hello again friends! back for my last 34... still wondering about that ET word.

6:07 pm

the Spanish were very keen on converting all of the natives to their religion. Catholics couldn't eat meat on Fridays or during Lent back in the 1500's; so they had to call them a type of fish because the natives were so fond of them as a source of food

6:08 pm

Hi Stid!

I would have thought that having 2 boys would make any mother an expert on microbes and the human immune system.

6:39 pm

yeah, that part I can handle, riemann... it's just the hard part of the genomics and all those little parts inside the microbes that throw me.

6:40 pm

6:41 pm

i've been looking for that dam se6 right after the person sitting next to you

6:41 pm

He would get along great with one of my teachers -- younger than us, of course, but the same zest for life.

6:42 pm

monkey -- it's not a normal state for you... quiet, calm, like you took a drug to calm down

6:42 pm

WTG, lil*

6:48 pm

yay, lil

6:48 pm

LOL hursh

6:48 pm

Milque, you get to find out how many words are in the grid

6:49 pm

you get to have your own icon; you only pay once in your life,

6:49 pm

when did you register, milque?

Today

6:49 pm

see the stats below the grid?

yea

6:50 pm

you get them for 2 weeks when you join, then you only get them if you go pro.

6:50 pm

back...

wb stid!

6:50 pm

and you support the creator of the game

6:50 pm

YAY Monkey!!!!

6:51 pm

OK i'm off to Facebook... night all

6:51 pm

I have a splitting headache... *whine whine*

6:51 pm

need sleep.... think i may take a nap

night monkey

(((((stid))))))))

LOL kje!

6:52 pm

stid, it wounds like you need some honey lemon tea and a good hot bath

6:52 pm

oh nef... . *whimper* that sounds lovely!

6:52 pm

I also think anyone who plays regularly and can afford internet connectivity should put some money aside until they have the fee and pay it--support the game's ongoing success

6:53 pm

no bathtub, though. rather, the boys have one *shudder* and mine is filled with plants. *sigh*

I second that!

6:53 pm

but I could have some honey lemon tea!

6:54 pm

I always think honey lemon tea feels good when I'm sick

6:54 pm

I will have to whine at the children some so they will make the tea for me.

6:54 pm

how about a good hot shower then? It would loosen up the cold (all the steam)

6:55 pm

You can whine at me and I'll make the tea.

6:55 pm

true enough. I can do that in a little bit, have to run out and switch cars with Tom in a few.

6:55 pm

*whining at riemann, but certain the tea will be cold by the time it arrives*

6:56 pm

Unfortunately, it will be cold tea. I tried pouring hot tea into the modem once. Didn't work.

6:56 pm

rofl....

6:56 pm

riemann -- logs -- they work a little bit like exponents, yes?

6:57 pm

they are the inverse of exponents, so yes yes

6:57 pm

muse

6:57 pm

I know about exponents, so when I have to use logs these days I am just putting them back into what I understand, then converting them back when I have graph things.

6:57 pm

thanks hurshy.

6:57 pm

Stid, logs are like exponents just like driving forwards is like driving in reverse.

6:57 pm

go nef go!!!! *puts chocolate in PB*

6:58 pm

y = log (base a) b MEANS a^y = b.

6:58 pm

that's what I thought. thanks for the confirmation. It was driving me crazy a couple weeks ago. I was working on the theory that what I did worked... but wasn't sure it was the right thing to do.

6:58 pm

(I should never chat when I'm working on a grid!) sorry

6:59 pm

yes, I found a couple websites that said that. I still think most of it is just "magic" --

6:59 pm

And it took you 2 weeks to find my phone number? you're getting better!

6:59 pm

:-P riemann, you're MEAN!

7:00 pm

I am not making phone calls right now... too much stress.

7:01 pm

I am also not emailing, or blogging much.

7:01 pm

off to change my icon...

7:01 pm

mush

7:01 pm

I'm just an average statistics professor. That makes me the mean.

7:02 pm

that's it! no more chat for me!!!!

7:02 pm

ROFL

7:02 pm

YAY nef!!!!!

7:02 pm

oh man, I hate it when math teachers get together!

7:02 pm

and past tense, nef...

7:02 pm

did you just come up with that or had you heard it somewhere?

7:03 pm

I am leaving now... nice to see you riemann. I'll tell Tom you were harassing me again.

7:03 pm

here stid, i can talk math on my level for you! 11, 12, 13, 14, what comes next?

7:03 pm

Hard to tell, Hursh. I don't REMEMBER hearing that before, but I do try to avoid such jokes, except in Stid's presence.

7:03 pm

hi feather! um.... 17?

7:04 pm

Hi JBV. How were your roasted veggies last night?

7:56 pm

7:58 pm

GOHARPGA!

7:59 pm

ty everyone *taking a bow*

7:59 pm

It is, Bea. The kids are mostly fine--self-limiting viruses. But the parents want the kids better stat and back to school or day care.

7:59 pm

Come on, Jane, you're closing in!

7:59 pm

congrats to all the finishers! I got a late start today, still need 39 more

8:00 pm

bye nan, have a nice evening

8:00 pm

My mother (with the Italian parents) ate all kinds of veggies from Pa's huge garden that took up the entire back yard---rows and rows of everything, including grapes to make wine.

8:00 pm

Enjoy dinner, nan.

8:00 pm

Go Bea + JBV!!

8:00 pm

that's the mediterranean diet, for sure -

8:01 pm

me too, Bea, 34 now

8:01 pm

I am seeing many words that I missed this AM.

8:03 pm

the beauty of the list is that I find words that I THOUGHT I typed in, but evidently did not (or typed too fast and babble expert couldn't keep up)

8:04 pm

I'm tired this evening.

8:05 pm

I am tired too.

8:05 pm

I am tired three

Hi all. I am thinking about starting...but this late I shoul d not and I am also tired.

We're all tired! It has been a long day for all of us.

8:06 pm

Hi, red

8:06 pm

I agree, tired....

8:06 pm

it took me just over an hour to get to 22 left, red... you could probably do it faster.

8:06 pm

left work early to meet my husband at his 3;00 doctor's appointment, saw the doctor at 4:15, then to the pharmacy, got home at 6:30 !

8:07 pm

Wow, JBV....

8:07 pm

I know, very frustrating, especially since I did not have to leave work at all, could have left at my regular time and it would have been fine

8:08 pm

help with the tr8, anyone?

8:08 pm

frustrating is an understatement, JBV!

8:08 pm

I hate when doctors run really behind, and I hate making parents wait with their kids. I try to be less than 20 min behind, but it is tough.

8:08 pm

sorry, don't have it yet, natt

8:09 pm

what arrive at ER in an 'nn'bulance + brit bye/ty

8:09 pm

8:10 pm

alright... guess I'll have to finish later. Gotta take daughter to flute lessons (God, I'll love it when she can drive herself!).

8:10 pm

Yikes, JBV!

8:10 pm

sorry, skipped a few letters, but carolvm gave it right

8:11 pm

not to mention that my husband is not in great shape to be sitting in a waiting room that long - he was suffering more than I was

8:11 pm

I had to find tr6 first. Now I found both, TY.

8:12 pm

Is he OK, JBV?

8:12 pm

need to find th 6....

8:12 pm

what's the matter with your hubby JBV?

8:12 pm

the second gr6/24?

8:12 pm

scrabbler, it's a very long and complicated story but right now we are visiting a stream of doctors trying to get the right diagnosis and course of treatment.....

8:13 pm

I have a pl of gr5/14...gr5 mills.

8:13 pm

Good luck, jbv!

8:13 pm

without being too specific (hubby is very protective of his privacy and I am respecting that) he is seeing a urologist, colorectal guy, orthopedic guy and infectious disease guy

8:14 pm

scrabbler, i think it is the one above that one...i have the milled thing/s

8:14 pm

gr6/24 - change the second vowel in the gr6 before.

8:14 pm

can someone clue the tr 6/24? I am dense...

8:14 pm

Oh, Dear, JBV! That isn't a group I'd like to see! I hope he's feeling well soon!

8:15 pm

Educate yourselves, ask lots of questions, make sure the internist helps you to sort it all out...good luck.

8:15 pm

thanks, Nef - at least I have my babble friends to cheer me up - you are all great!

8:15 pm

pam, an accident victim is a tr**** victim

8:15 pm

thanks, scrabbler, we are learning more than we ever wanted to know about all those body parts

8:15 pm

It took me a while too, Pam.

8:16 pm

There are many reliable sites on the web too. If necessary, get 2nd and 3rd opinions.

8:16 pm

sorry, nef, can't understand that clue, either...

8:17 pm

9:29 pm

2nd ag5/14: kinda sounds like it should be a farming word.

9:40 pm

Here goes: One of the presidential candidates was visiting an elementary school, and the 4th grade class he sat through began a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asked the candidate if he would like to lead the class in a discussion of the word "tragedy." So, the candidate asked the class for an example of a tragedy. One boy stood up and said, "If my best friend who lives next door is playing in the street and a car comes along and runs him over, that would be a tragedy." "No," said the candidate, "that would be an accident."

9:40 pm

woohoo, dorens!

9:40 pm

How about the last 3 ti words? I got the crown, but haven't been able to monkey any others

9:40 pm

A girl raised her hand and said, "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove off a cliff, killing everyone on board, that would be a tragedy." "I'm afraid not," the candidate said. "That's what we would call a Great Loss." The room went silent. No other children volunteered. The candidate searched the room and asked, "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"

9:41 pm

woohoo dorens!!! have a good time

9:41 pm

Finally, way in the back of the room, Johnny raised his hand, and in a quiet voice, he said, "If your campaign plane, carrying yourself and your running mate, was struck by a missile and blown to smithereens, THAT would be a tragedy." "That's right! And can you tell me WHY that would be a tragedy?" asked the candidate. "Well," Johnny said, "because it wouldn't be an accident and it sure as heck wouldn’t be a Great Loss..."

9:41 pm

LOL

9:41 pm

that is funny!

9:42 pm
