I'll pass the word on....people should be popping on any time...I woke up early sooo...

am doing ok carlee... sore, tired, but ok

I just did something I haven't done for ages - Actually - the last bit - never before. It was a real challenge - but I got it done. Copying a harddrive is not as easy as it sounds.

5:26 am

glad ur fine....{{{hugs}}}

detached for reality is what I need

5:27 am

bravo for u...wish u were nearby lickety..my computer neeeds a complete revamp...reboot re everything...

5:27 am

u don't feel like flyin gover for a visit do you?

carleekat - I'm sure there is a way

5:28 am

( actually it needs to be drop kicked into the river/ lake )

A good Anchor?

guys, i need to go sleep!! so so desperately tired and have to work tomorrow. ti amor and ciao!

5:29 am

yea..that too..i've lost word/ xcel/ wordpad/ PDF

5:29 am

just slowly disappearing

To do my hard drve copy - from a 10 year old hard drive to a 1 day old hard drive I had to use a computer that hasn't been switched on for 1 year - And it didn't like being woken!

5:29 am

nite nite hun..sleep well

Night mrp - see you soon

5:29 am

<snort> ok..that funny....toddle off down the hall..and snuggle in "soon"

With the hard drive copy it then felt like a dominatrix thing - all this master and slave swapping.

I was playing with dip switches and IDE cables and power cables, and auto detect drive settings, and even gave up on that computer - and tried another - another 15 goes and I got it

5:32 am

woohoo for u ...

And all the DUST!

5:32 am

i just pray when I turn on the machine it turns on

5:32 am

yeap...canned air will take care of that

Yeah - when I first turned it on - I got a morse code of beeps - which must have said = "Why the Frak did you wake me up?"

5:33 am

hehehe....

5:34 am

yeah! welcome back lickety!!! we all missed you horribly!

Battlestar Galatica is awesome - watching series 3

5:34 am

probably updating tmes/ dates...switching between DST and ST

5:34 am

( here we go..the lickety love fest begins :D)

5:34 am

5:35 am

I've become somewhat of a twitter user - as I can use my phone - share the love - same name ;-)

5:36 am

i have yet to try twitter...

5:36 am

tell me about it lickety

hard to explain - Basically - it's like global SMS

5:37 am

but how is theat different from sms?

to your friends, 138 character limits, but you can reply

5:38 am

that?

You can also watch the whole world do it

and reply to strangers - then become followers

5:38 am

I've only been doing it for a while - twitter.com

5:42 am

Hi Judi!

9:16 am

hey all. dam, im here late and it is a small grid

9:16 am

YW! *scuttles back to work-land*

Hi bf!

9:17 am

easy grid ?

The first 45 or so are. Then it's a little bit of a hunt but nothing bizarre (unless it's in my last 9).

9:18 am

my 14 have been easy lol

I was on earlier after the orthopedist and the cardiologist, that's why I have more words than you.

9:20 am

Teeny weeny grid today.

It sure is.

9:20 am

6 6's though

9:20 am

8 even,

Yup! One of them was my first word, but then I used to be in charge of feeding them.

9:21 am

hm i dont have that one yet (well i dont know how you can feed the 6's i have)

I also fed the lorises at that time.

Can someone clue the le, pretty please?

9:26 am

i thought it might be le6,18 (the beatles) but nope!

Walter discovered just now I'm wearing a Holter monitor (probably nothing going on, says cardiologist, but worth checking out for peace of mind), and I told him not to bump th ewires. I said I have to wear this for one day. He said very seriously, "OK, mama. Today?"

Finally got that le. Cancel clue alert!

3 to go.

9:31 am

Just looking for it myself, sorry! One of my last 2.

9:33 am

9:34 am

no 4-4 + ** not stop

9:34 am

oh yeah, thanks to everyone who gave me clues :)

I mean no6...

Thanks!

FIREWORKS! Sure am glad I didn't ask for a clue for that last one after all; I'd have to beat myself black and blue with a scrod for that.

9:39 am

whats the points value for no6 (the ** not stop one)

9:40 am

9:41 am

hmm, thanks

Cute kitty, crpw!

9:44 am

thanks monkey, he's my best friend

9:44 am

9:44 am

My kitty is asleep on Walter's basket trying to ignore that he's creeping up on her saying, "Kitty cat, I want to pet you nicely..." In my icon you can see my dog; Walter took that picture, pretty good for 4 yars old I think.

Thanks, Carlee!

9:45 am

:o)

9:46 am

9:46 am

really BIG dog, beautiful

She outweighs my husband by 6 kilos.

9:47 am

9:48 am

i love dogs, had a little mutt for 16 years and after she passed could not get another one so i got a cat

9:48 am

they become as dear to you as your children

9:48 am

MG...am cuious where u got ur list of "thank you's")

9:49 am

curious*

We got our cat when we lived in a tiny, tiny Amsterdam apartmnet WAY high up. That was about 7 years ago. When we finally moved somewhere dog-worthy I was pregnant, so we got a Dane-- they're fabulous with kids.

You know, Carlee, I'm not sure! IT was through a Google search back when the icon theme was thank you.

9:51 am

ahhhh..ok..wondered... I've never heard sah ha as thank you at any time when have worked at the mosque with ahost of diff arab nations working in the kitchen

Oh, I hope my list is legit!

9:51 am

nor have I heard El7amdu lilah used as thanks

9:51 am

9:52 am

not..thanks for pssing the salt

9:52 am

thank god my child not sick..thank you god for this day..thank you god I can walk today...

9:52 am

anyway...:o)

Hmmm... suppose I should check the list out. I work with a Morroccan lady and an Iraqui guy so they could at least check some of the Arabic for me, I guess.

9:52 am

no biggie...

9:53 am

I just wondered if I missed something.... in all the time I been in the kitchens

I don't know. I just grabbed the list because I thought it was a cool idea.

9:54 am

ok..customer due in....ttfn

9:54 am

it is cool..I just wondered...

9:54 am

its SO not a big deal... just making conversation..ok..gone

Don't worry, I didn't think you were criyticizing me or anything! I'm interested in languages and your input is very interesting! Bye for now, then!

10:01 am

hello

10:02 am

hi harpjane

10:03 am

Hi Harp!

10:04 am

howdy again all,just dropping on for 10 min before i have to shovel the car out! foot of snow last night and snowing like heck again!

10:05 am

Hi Crossy!!!

10:05 am

howdy mg:)

10:07 am

Love your logo Crosshair, I love wolves - but then I dont live in a country where I come across them often!!

10:08 am

darn..snowing so hard i just lost sight of the houses across the road..this drive in will be interesting:(....ty dee my wife does a tad of shamanism and tell me that the wolf is my familliar and guardian

10:09 am

Like one of those myself!!

10:09 am

we get full size timer wolves in algonquin park 3 hours north of me;)

10:09 am

We have wolves here. They were released several years ago into the dunelands just behind our neighborhood to keep the deer under control as in the olden days. They're very secretive; only the rangers ever see them.

10:09 am

timber even

10:10 am

well i better dig out the parka tc everyone and happy babbling!

10:10 am

algonquin park, is that ontario?

10:10 am

yes it is harp

10:10 am

Bye Crossy!

10:10 am

poof

10:10 am

Have you read the Nicholas Smith (HorseWhuisperer man) book about wolves? I sat on a train and cried over how they were exterminated in places

10:10 am

we don't have any snow yet

10:11 am

The Loop, it was very sad and actually made me sick

10:11 am

I haven't read it, no. I'll put on my list to get when I can! Thanks for the tip.

10:11 am

part of the story line was when a wolf attacked a child and that is almost unheard of in reality

10:12 am

I'm afraid it just perpetuates the myth of wolves being vicious

10:12 am

It sure is. Sometimes in very, very rural places during famine times if a child is wandering alone in th emiddle of nowhere it does happen.

10:12 am

stir

10:12 am

Harrumph. I was so rudely interrupted.

10:12 am

oops sorry

10:13 am

I hate the popular image of wolves as vicious. Depresses me.

10:13 am

Hi again Judi.

10:13 am

there is not a single case of a non-rabid wolf attacking a human in North America

10:14 am

I would believe that. I have heard of it in India and Ethiopia but that was hearsay stories and they referred to incidents more than 100 years ago.

10:15 am

Wolves are gorgeous. Who would say such terrible things about wolves?

10:15 am

I always heard that there was never any proof anywhere in the world that wolves had attacxked humans. Mind you there are one or two I'd throw to them...............!!!!

10:16 am

Oh, the two incidents I heard abour do NOT count as proof! And so many peopla are attacked every year by domestic dogs I just wish people would get a grip.

10:17 am

And bye me-- must off to do some actual housework. Was waiting for my back to calm down but it's not going to, I guess.

10:17 am

Right and often by family pets

10:18 am

I have dated a few wolves in my life. (suppose that doesn't count).

10:18 am

good website on the subject of wolves and humans: http://tinyurl.com/6gprgh

10:18 am

we have many more incidents of neighborhood dogs killing sheep than we do of wolves

10:19 am

a wolf is going to "imprint" on a food source at a young age. unless someone teaches it that humans are edible, they won't try to eat us

10:19 am

however, they may huff and puff and blow our houses down!

10:21 am

***buys Huf & puff house insurance ***

10:22 am

lolruru

10:24 am

its like all insurance companies you THINK you are covered for Huff & Puff but when it comes to claiming on it..................!!!

10:25 am

yeah you were covered for puffing... but huffing wasn't allowed

10:25 am

I think they only pay out if the whole house blows down. Must read the fine print.

10:26 am

and the President has to declare a Huffnpuff emergency before you can buy the insurance!

10:26 am

Yeah... and I was all the way way way to the market

10:27 am

ten to go, think I"ll save the fun for tonight!

10:27 am

bbl

10:30 am

It was Rhubarb who was poorly (it usually is Crumble!!) She is much better, still on special food after being starved for 24 hours and on 2 lots of meds twice a day, but back to her normal self apart from the sulking over not being able to eat with the others

11:44 am

duh, sorry!

11:44 am

congrats wvteach

11:44 am

oh that's good! poor babe being starved while the others got to eat!

11:45 am

TY carleekat

11:45 am

She was NOT PLEASED, as she let me know ;-) She does take her meds like a good girl though, I'm just glad we caught it early enough as she is a tiny thing and unlike crumble doesn't have much meat on her

11:46 am

I bet she wasn't! I'm sure you heard alllll about it!

11:47 am

well I'm glad she's much better! yay rhubarb!

11:47 am

Crumble thinks her throat has been cut as her food is taken up after meal time so she can't eat all day. She has started to lick the bowl clean on feeding now

11:48 am

Lord knows how bad it would have been if she was the one that had needed starving for 24 hours!!

11:48 am

looooool yes, I've seen that trauma before. you are quite clearly starving them if you take their food bowls away!

11:48 am

ok..well..back to work

11:48 am

Sorry about the delay...internet playing up

12:25 pm

Hi FM:)

12:25 pm

12:26 pm

Hello, Good People.

hi vicuna

12:26 pm

Hi Vicuna!

12:26 pm

May I please have a clue for fu5-6? Thanks

12:26 pm

yes thank goodness Ata! Hey Vi :)

12:26 pm

Hello Vi and Ata

12:26 pm

Make that fu5-18.

12:26 pm

They're not a pair. The fu5 is a mattress that folds up.

12:26 pm

fu6/30 - pours something wide into something narrow

the 6 you find on a steam ship

and the 4 is a kind of sofa bed

12:27 pm

fu5/18 - couch/bed

12:27 pm

Evening cait :)

5 even!

12:27 pm

The fu6 is a thing that narrows and allows you to pour stuff into something.

12:27 pm

Thanks Vicuna

12:27 pm

FM I did say hello LOL :)

12:28 pm

Vi Vi! -> http://tinyurl.com/6f5zr4

Okey-doke!

12:28 pm

Oh did you cait, sorry my log seems to be playing up :(

12:28 pm

Any dream interpretation experts on here tonight? Thought I was good but my four-year-old's dream from last night really has me stumped.

12:29 pm

this is so embarrassing, sorry to keep bothering, but I don't have lickety at the bottom of my page. I did look him up in the ranks, but I can't link from there. Guess I will just stumble along...bummer

12:29 pm

fire away monkey

12:29 pm

Dont worry FM, my internet is as well.......must be the weather

12:29 pm

He dreamed that he walked into the living room and "Daddy's feet caught him" and then the feet let him go and then he saw that Daddy's head was under the sofa and the head said, "Help! Help!" and he woke up.

12:29 pm

Hey, guys, I'm down to two to finish: gu6-27 and gu4-10. Ruru tried to help me earlier with th gu6, but I was too dumb to get it. Thanks

12:29 pm

Ooooo, spectacular, Ata! Finished at last!

12:29 pm

Tri look in bab anon at the bottom there is a list there

12:30 pm

yep! finished! yay :D

12:30 pm

Well, yay Ata!

12:30 pm

12:31 pm

thank you SO MUCH - I swear, I am going to get the hang of this!

12:31 pm

MG has he been watching the TV ..perhaps its something he saw has got stuck in his mind

12:31 pm

phew. I'm glad you said that, I was hoping that would be the case!

12:31 pm

Congrats Ata

12:31 pm

One does, tri.

12:31 pm

Sometimes a dream is just a dream.

then one becomes hopelessly addicted *G*

12:32 pm

I agree, Vi

12:32 pm

hello all 2 to finish for me as well - gu6 and no6 any help gratefully received

12:32 pm

He's been watching Finding Nemo, followed by Lady and teh Tramp, followed by Dribble and teletubbies, ad infinitum. Makes a nice change from 101 Dalmatians...

12:32 pm

Speaking of which, last night I dreamt that Ata, FM, Haz, EvaN, and Jacula arrived to visit in my bedroom in my parents' house where I grew up...

12:32 pm

maybe it's too much TV

12:32 pm

ooooo!

12:33 pm

And were we nice?

12:33 pm

Why wasnt I there Vi ?? LOL

12:33 pm

ga peach - the 6 27 rhymes with the fu 6 30

12:33 pm

That is actually what I think too, Vicuna, at least as far as being concerned at all. But I'm fascinated by the brain and wht it comes up with, and this IS a good one!

12:33 pm

I put up a card table and the little child-sized table that I and then my kids sat at when they were quite small...

12:33 pm

Monkey - are you the dad?

12:33 pm

Haz!!!!!

12:33 pm

Hi Haz

12:33 pm

Hello hello!

12:33 pm

Scarydeb, no4-4 + not stop.

12:34 pm

How was the WI?

12:34 pm

ANd I was trying to figure out how to divide us, three at each table so that it wouldn't be unequal with 4 and 2. And that's all there was.

12:34 pm

Cool dream! Two nights ago I dreamed that we all got to go up on the space shuttle to spend two weeks on the space hotel... Nicest dream I've had ina while.

12:34 pm

Hello, Haz!

12:34 pm

I haven't been yet!

12:34 pm

I'm the mom, tri.

12:34 pm

I can't say why, caitlyn! Maybe you were invited and declined! lol

12:34 pm

I'm calming my nerves before I set off.

12:34 pm

lol sorry

12:34 pm

But I also have no idea why jacula, whom I never chat with, since we're never even on at the same time.

12:35 pm

Tri, I have the fu6, need the top one. Thanks

12:35 pm

Oh you will be brill dear

good luck haz

12:35 pm

Haz, you'll be fab! But I have missed at what...

12:35 pm

ty gapeach, i'm still stuck on the 1st one

12:35 pm

ooo evening meeting! when does it start, Haz?

12:35 pm

hmmmm. I wonder then...sounds like your basic separation dream, and feeling worried that the person who ususally keeps him safe wouldn't be able too. Pretty normal for kiddos, esp in light of Nemo, where the dad is pretty stifling

12:35 pm

They can't kill me. I keep telling myself that.

12:35 pm

Haz, what are you calming your nerves to be brilliant for?

12:35 pm

I have to go just as everyone is coming in.....I will see you all tomorrow, bye LOL Vi.I will come next time ......now a definate bye all

12:35 pm

Peach, you need teh fold-up bed.

12:35 pm

It starts at 8.00, I'm leaving in about 10 minutes.

12:35 pm

Byee cait

take care caitlyn

12:35 pm

thats the 1st gu6

12:36 pm

Bye, caitlyn!

will be thinking of you haz, am sure you will do great

12:36 pm

Scary, you need the ship part.

12:36 pm

Vi, I'm doing a demo at a local Woman's Institute - table settings and starters for Christmas.

12:36 pm

Oh, I thought you'd done that already. You must have done something else before. Gosh, I can't even keep up with you!

12:36 pm

Ah, lovely, Haz. You'll be fine. You'll blow them away! Hands down.

12:37 pm

will there be lots of sparkles and glitter?

12:37 pm

scary, the no4-4 is the opposite of some.

12:37 pm

Yesterday was the lunch for 8. No poisoning reported.

12:37 pm

No she is leaving Spangle at home!

12:37 pm

Not too much sparkle. I'm very restrained in that regard!

12:37 pm

Well, that IS good news, Haz!

12:37 pm

Oh, I must have confused the two. No poisoning is always good. As for tonight, you'll be miles better than Martha Stewart and start a whole new craze, and I'll be able to say "I knew her when..."

12:37 pm

spangle would look great as a table setting!

12:37 pm

The no poisoning part.

i prefer natural and simple myself

12:37 pm

Of course, maybe they've been too ill to report.

12:38 pm

ys what I aim for, anyway.

12:38 pm

got it - thanks gapeach

12:38 pm

Alwa went missing there...

12:38 pm

Anyone seen Lil Monkey lately?

12:39 pm

You'll be starting your own line of decor and starters in no time.

Trifioso how are you getting on?

12:39 pm

Just remember to breathe and smile - you'll be great!

12:39 pm

managing. The J in this grid is useless, right?

12:39 pm

will there be any travellers there? *fascination with the idea of traveller table settings*

12:39 pm

Yes, J useless.

12:40 pm

Yes, breathe, smile and suck in the stomach.

12:40 pm

Please, I need gu6-27 the first one and gu4-10. Thanks

nice easy grid today but the monkey fooled me for a while

anyone need any clues before I go and bath my son?

12:53 pm

Ummm... hope so, Trif, but the link as I copied it ahs led me to a reference to Sor Juana or The Breath of Life...

12:53 pm

Suppose I cvould just do my own Google search. Revolutionary, I know, but hey, roll with the times...

12:54 pm

Might I say by the way that Trifioso is a cool screen name. But now my music track is jammed on "triffic, really triffic..."

12:54 pm

julie -I am stuck on the GE 4

12:55 pm

ge4: like species but less specific, minus last letter

if something is real it is ge**ine

12:55 pm

ta very much! and thanks for the props re: my screen name. It the first letters of the kids names

12:56 pm

Aha! 8 kids?

you have 8 children?

thats fantastic :o)

12:56 pm

Or Trevor, Fiona, and... ummm... Sonorra?

12:57 pm

NO NO! I did realize that after I wrote it.....first letters , plural....a few letters from each name. But maybe I should just let you all go on thinking I am some uber mom....hey! Fiona is RIGHT!!! WEll done you!

ok 3 lol i have 3 to 18,15 and 6 years old

12:57 pm

Walter (my four year old) is a big Shrek fan.

12:58 pm

You the dad or the mom, Trif?

my 6 year old its power rangers atm, thought i escaped them when my now 15 year old got over them!

12:58 pm

Yes, well, we had it first! Thought Shrek has been mostly helpful now, as people could NOT wrap their heads around it for the longest time. And we will not even discuss the spellings!

shrek is cool but how many times have you watched the films now?

12:59 pm

And right now I guess I am the mom and the dad, since the DH did a runner....

12:59 pm

Yes, understood. Nobody in the Netherlands could spell my realname until I accidentally devasted New Orleans. They finally name one after me and that happnes. Sheesh.

i always found at that age they can watch these things over and over and I know most disney films word for word now

Oh, I'm so sorry, Trif!

1:00 pm

I am more up on "in the great green room, there was a telephone....." somethings you just never forget!

Yes, how many times... well, you understand. Not to mention Roger Rabbit. Must be upinto the 1000's by now.

its hard trif, i'm a single mum now to

1:00 pm

thanks monkey. yes, the world is a disapointing place right now. But hey - I got my MAD word skills, right?

Indeed, we have that book.

1:00 pm

and julie too.

There you go!

otta stay positive.

G...

you have a lot more going for you to be coping with 3 children on your own i bet

1:01 pm

But i think it sounds like your husband isn't somewhere he can come back from, which I am so sorry to hear!

1:01 pm

last one for today...help? gu 6...not the boat one

For the record, I have seen the Shrek films, Bambi, Finding Nemo, Lady and the Tramp, etc..... 100's of times... in Dutch!

Oh yes, indeed. I was raised by an oceanograpoher.

Well, he was planning on Frank, Julie, and Zappa makes for a cooler initial, got to admit.

1:06 pm

my stepmother was CONVINCED she named my bro "Brain" because they made her fill out the forms while she was still gorky. But she had actually did it right, and "Brian" he remains!

Good thing too! We had a kid in my 6th grade class named Brian Allen, and we all called him Brain Alien, though.

Betetr than what they called me though.

1:07 pm

LOL!!! That is so mean!

I repeat, better than what they called me. But anyway, he was popular so it didn't take.

Nonetheless I agree.

the gu of mexico

4:52 pm

the arabia gu4

hey, peeps

squid, or the Persian Gu**

it's a body of water

ty for your help, have fireworks

zigzag up the grid :)

yay, squid

this was a rather peculiar grid

night all

kind of a fun one, though

sweet dreams

howarya, carlee?

hmmm. guess I'm the only one here

I have returned yet again. I was not a big fan of grid. i hope tomorro is 600.

5:04 pm

could someone clue the en 6, please?

you're a sadist, turtle!

to go into the army or navy tiny

en6 to take service in the army (for example)

No Tyger, i have the day off! So I want to not finish babble in one hour!

5:05 pm

thank you! this may be my first fireworks! 12 to go!

go, tiny! :)

well, if it's anything over 200, I"m probably not going to do it

go tiny go, but stay nad finish!

I will DEFINITELY not do any grid over 300

I did the 599 grid, just to prove to myself I could do it, but ... never again

but those are the most fun tyger...

I'm too slow for that stuff

for you, maybe, turtle

they are not fun on work days...because i never finish on work days.

I won't enter words here unless I've finished - or know that I can, with a bit of help, when Lickety's not around

I ish I could have switched this grid with yesterdays...I couldnt finish yesterday.

but lickety was here earlier and is up and runnin.

you're not the only one!!!!!!!

I did finish yesterday, but it was grueling

yes, I know. I used it this morning to finish off. one of the words I didn't have was the big-nosed monkey

the gu?

yes, gu6

IOW, if I'm not within 10 words of the total, and there's no Lickety, I won't even enter the words here

I just hate it when my stats tank, even though frankly no one cares...

I just quit

I alays figure i win some, and lose some...

back last spring - or maybe it was late winter - I was only 2 words from having a big grid uploaded when time ran out. it wrecked my score on the "hot"list. I refuse to allow that to happen again

yes, I'm down some points in that column for the grids I don't upload, but not nearly as much as for an incomplete upload

I'm not too competitive with other people, but I have high standards for my own performance

yes, this is why i am always sort of lower in the lists....

5:12 pm

gu6 rhymes with the Lincoln Tu6 to get to NYC.

I was either at 1030, or very close, and it knocked me down about 20 points

but i dont mind...

that was *painful*

hi Pianoman.

yes, piano, one of them. :)

the other is a big-nosed S. American monkey

5:13 pm

only 5 to go! I'm still missing the first fl 5 16 and the fl 6 27. any help please?

5:13 pm

I had no idea there were 2 gu6's. I could be here all night.

the gu6 you clued is either a fish, or an alt spelling of a part of a ship

5:14 pm

Hi red.

1st fl5/16: a butterfly fl5 from flower to flower

howarya, piano?

Piano, I seriously doubt you will be here all night. the grid is quite a bit shorter than normal.

Whats ne Piano?

new

5:14 pm

oh..i have that fl..so I guess the second one?

5:15 pm

Can't imagine a second gu6.

fl6/27: at parties, a guy fl6 with the prettiest girl he can find

do you want a clue?

5:15 pm

Why won't it take flugel as in flugel horn in a brass band.

Piano its a big nosed monkey.

5:15 pm

thank you! only 3 left!

because the word isn't in the Enable word list

yw, tiny

and, of course, there are "words" in Enable that aren't in any dictionary

but flugel is in the dictionaries as a grand piano or harpsichord

Enable is like some dictionary with anemia.

I suspect that the horn has a slightly different spelling - maybe with another vowel? :)

I did a little search, and apparently it's one word, not two: flugelhorn

or fluegelhorn

I tried fluegel, and that's when it popped up - in wikipedia

because the word is German, and has an umlaut over the U

5:19 pm

I just got my first fireworks! Maybe someday I can get one that's more than 100 words!

yay, tiny!! that's so great! :D

5:19 pm

What a sense of accomplishment! Thank you for all your help.

this will do good things for your scores. check this time tomorrow

yvw. both turtle and I try to help others with clues

5:20 pm

hello

hey, kje

5:20 pm

woohoo tiny on your first time!!!

I see you're in India now

5:21 pm

yes... have been here about a week... heading to the far east soon... really looking forward to the great food!

5:21 pm

thank you!

tiny, why don't you have a photo or a graphic for an icon?

5:21 pm

yes tiny... get rid of the gray head!!! it is hard on the yes

do you need help to put something up?

it's not hard

5:22 pm

I will look for something...I rarely post unless I have questions. I don't usually have much to add in the way of clues.

5:23 pm

If I navigate away from this page will the fireworks be here when I get back?

that's okay. and remember, if you need help, speak up and ask for clues. most people here will help, gladly

no, tiny, I don't think so

No tiny they will go away...but you can get them again manana

you're so delighted you don't want to lose it? :) I do understand

5:24 pm

oh, i doubt that. well, I'll wait to put up a picture until later then. I want to show my boyfriend when he gets home!

hi kje...how are you...

can't you open a different window of your browser?

you should be able to do that, just click on the icon on the desktop again

5:25 pm

hi red

all browsers will open more than one, AFAIK

5:26 pm

LOL at tiny... that is cute

5:26 pm

AFAIK?

well, can you blame her? it's her first. that's an achievement

As Far As I Know

5:26 pm

no no no... i think it is nice

5:27 pm

aaahhhh - did not know that shorthand... you are worse than my teenage friends who text me tyger : )

kje, would you like a link to a page with a list of those things?

I have yet to be an adopter of the text messaging trend...i feel old.

5:28 pm

okay, I added a picture, but I don't know if I need to refresh for it to be visible.

5:28 pm

OMG, red.... i love texting! it is a natural extension of what we did in residency really

I useta use Messenger, but stopped several years ago. I don't miss it

yay, tiny!

I can see it :)

5:28 pm

oh, there it is! hurray! it's a day filled with babble firsts!

5:29 pm

as house officers we would often text each other funny things... lightened the night... and also, had to notify each other where the afterwork party would be held

yay, tiny! I'm proud of you

5:29 pm

I ike it tiny!!! yay for you!

LOL, kje

5:29 pm

tiny... where are you in texas? i am in dallas

5:29 pm

austin...i used to live in denton though a few years ago.

5:30 pm

i lived in denton during college

5:30 pm

for 2 years

Is Austin a bike-friendly city?

5:30 pm

not as much as I hear Portland is..but it's getting better.

I just realized - I forgot to have my afternoon snack & pills :sigh: back soon

5:31 pm

there's a growing number of cyclists though, and that helps drivers get used to us at least.

5:31 pm

bye tyger.. i am off also... should see if i can get my tire repaired on the way home

that's good. I figured that you wouldn't put up a bike if you didn't like to ride :)

5:31 pm

woohoo again tiny!!!

5:31 pm

have you been back to denton lately kje? it's changed a lot.

later, kje. I'll be back here to clue, if needed

BIAB

5:32 pm

thanks!

Ok good night all. I am off to watch wolf blitzer.

5:53 pm

How many words tonight, please??

58

5:56 pm

Thanks Samantha

That's not a typo; it's a small grid

5:57 pm

I figured it must be...I have 30 so far

I have 42 and I am stuck like a minivan in the mud

It would probably help if I would stop typing in "tongue"

6:01 pm

Yep...that's my phantom word tonight too.

6:02 pm

Well, time to go see about dinner. Be back later on maybe.

The Gs. are killing me. I have two of them and I'm beginning to doubt that there are any more, regardless of what teh grid says

Good night

6:03 pm

clue for the un6,24 please

6:04 pm

un + the music you hum

6:04 pm

thanks inge

6:05 pm

yw. Which part of PA are you from?

hey, peeps

inge, I heard you guys got some snow?

hmmm. guess nobody's paying attention to the chog

later

6:10 pm

tyger, I wqs reading your profile. That takes time!!

6:11 pm

hi, inge, I'm here - briefly - how are you?

6:11 pm

this was a tiny grid today - finished much earlier

6:11 pm

Yes we did get snow past night and everything wa coverd with a beautiful sticky white planet

6:12 pm

I meant blanket, but planet is not bad either

6:13 pm

I wrote a thank you note to lickety for coming back with clues

6:17 pm

Auf Wiedersehn. Bis später.

checked back. that was a lovely idea, inge. I may copy it. we all depend on him so much, though for many it's indirect, as they look to us who do use it for clues

the snow sounds beautiful, inge. where was it they got the 2 feet?

6:18 pm

no two feet hree. I bet Scrabbler got a lot in upstate New York.

6:19 pm

evening all!

hey, jin

6:20 pm

Hi, Jindigo

is scrabbler that near Lake Erie? I've never learned just where she is - the Adirondacks are kinda big :D

6:20 pm

Hey Tyger & Inge

6:21 pm

I think her hospital is in or near Buffalo

oh? then I'm sure she did get a *lot* of snow

inge, did you try to enter flugel for this grid?

pianoman was in earlier, complaining because it wasn't accepted

6:23 pm

could I get some help with FU 6/30 please?

6:23 pm

Hi, all

hey, pam

6:23 pm

Hello Pam

fu6/30: an object used when you pour liquids into something with a small opening

6:24 pm

I finished teh grid at 7:30 am. I know I hever tried flugel. Would taht be an English spelling, cause in German it gets an Umlaut u

6:24 pm

duh! thanks Tyger!

6:24 pm

hi, tyger and jin

yw, jin

toto we are not in kansas any more

yes, inge. I know :) I did a bit of searching, and told him that, for one thing, dictionaries show fluegel as a spelling (because of the umlaut)

wassamatta, steve?

that was the clue for jin

OTOH, flugel is in wikipedia, used to refer to harpsichords and grand pianos (because of their shape)

oh, for the tornado?

6:27 pm

as in a f cloud?

yes

I hadn't thought of that meaning

6:27 pm

hi just makeing a short stop.

hey, chick

6:27 pm

very ckever steve'

that strikes me as a hurshy sort of clue :)

6:28 pm

bbiab

6:28 pm

hey tyger how are things?

okay, thx, chick. and you?

6:30 pm

not too bad except for the snow we're suppose to get 5 in. tonight YUCK!

6:30 pm

It pays to read porfiles. I remember you as Hodag, and you had a son or grandson who kept logging in with various names

sorry mine took so much time, inge

6:31 pm

hi inge, my grandson went by the name mousey:)

but I got tired of dealing every few days with having to explain stuff about me, or about my nic

6:32 pm

Say hello to him from me. We had quite a few exchanges here

6:33 pm

ingy thingy!!!

sounds like the 3 of us are in similar age range

hey, nutty

6:34 pm

tyger, I was not complaining. Merely explaining why I had not answered you faster

6:34 pm

6:40 pm

hi chickie

6:40 pm

hi inge

6:41 pm

wowzers, this lemon pepper fish is peppery!

maybe it's 'cause the room is filling? :)

6:41 pm

nutty, is it prepared, or your own cooking?

6:41 pm

evening all

6:41 pm

hi dan

6:41 pm

prepared of course, as if i have time to make my own

hey, dan

brand, nut?

6:42 pm

poor nutty, she needs a wife

6:42 pm

hi dan

so I can avoid it. very much pepper and my stomach rebels

6:42 pm

dunno, don't pay much attention

LOL, nut - you don't read boxes?

6:43 pm

ok, looked in the freezer, its gortons

6:43 pm

Thanks Inge - never would have gotten that by myself.

I can do quite well with white pepper, but black pepper, and ... oh-oh

thx, nut. I will be sure not to buy it. I like their beer-battered fish

6:43 pm

gorton's?

6:43 pm

i like pepper, i don't mind it, i just wasn't expecting it to be so strong

it was a good clue she gave. I was trying to figure out how to do it when she put it up

6:44 pm

hi kje, the fish guy...gorton

6:44 pm

how many words plz

la-la-la "trust the Gortons fisherman"

58, diz

they may not use that commercial anymore, but it was around for years

6:45 pm

not sure what grid kje is working on, but this one only has 58 tonight. lol

kje, why are you intimidating her?? or was that a typo

6:45 pm

oh! pirate term! pirate term!

you saw the 2nd gu6, nutty?

6:46 pm

nope, just being a pita

6:46 pm

um, no...i saw the fl4

I was the one who called it after flip :buffs fingernails"

6:47 pm

well done, tyger!

6:47 pm

2 to go - I need help with NO 6/24 please

LOLOL oh, nutty

6:47 pm

LOL tyger

6:47 pm

no4.4 + opp of stop

6:47 pm

no4 + opp of stop

6:47 pm

6:47 pm

nutter--- why are your neighbors mad at you?

6:48 pm

ow! kje snapped me!

6:48 pm

what kind of word is that?

6:48 pm

oh, someone's been on my facebook!

6:48 pm

jin...stoopidhead word

what word, jin?

6:48 pm

-- thank you!

6:48 pm

-- thank you!

6:48 pm

because they were hunting for deer on my property AFTER i told them not to

6:48 pm

yep

nut, don't they know that's illegal??

6:49 pm

i would think that would be trespassing and they should thank you that you are not pressing charges

6:49 pm

i still got the cold shoulder even after i told them it was out of respect for my husbands memory

6:49 pm

let them be mad, nutty! i'd do the same thing

6:49 pm

never mind im not in my right mind right now

6:49 pm

they'll thank me that i don't zing'em with a pellet if i seez them

ignore the idjits, then, nut - and if they do it again, call the sheriff

6:50 pm

is hunting in housing areas permitted

6:50 pm

put up posted signs. then register with the police that your land is posted for no hunting

depends on size of property, kje

good advice, dawg

6:50 pm

i won't have too, if i got the cold shoulder, they won't do it, but they'll be snots i guess. i guess i should care more about a 17 year olds hunting happiness than about how my hubber loved to feed the deer

6:51 pm

thats F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S for me - thanks for the clues

6:51 pm

i put the signs up dawg, that's how the fight started

you absolutely should NOT care what they think, nut

6:51 pm

woohoo jindigo!!!

6:51 pm

whooooo hooooo Jindigo!

yay, jin & yw :)

6:51 pm

no respect for all the times he plowed their drive unasked either, guess that don't matter

fireworks

6:51 pm

bravo, Jindigo

6:51 pm

i don't recall saying i cared, did i say i cared?

6:51 pm

don't feel bad AT ALL nut!! they are being asses

yay, steve

6:51 pm

just protecting your rights, nutty. once the land is posted, the hunters can be prosecuted for trespass and or poaching.

like I said, nut, idjits

6:52 pm

nope, i don't care, annoyed yes, care no -

6:52 pm

whoooo hooooo steve

6:52 pm

where's the sport in wanting to hunt in a spot they know i feed the deer at

((((nutter))))

there is NO sport, and that's illegal in most states (to hunt over a feeding spot)

ive clues but they can be cryptic

6:53 pm

my backyard is a nature preserve. it's listed as a nature preserve on our title. anyone caught hunting on our land is a poacher, and that's big time and fines

greedy, stupid, incompetent .... idjits

6:53 pm

but thanks for the knowledge of letting the pd know my land is posted, didn't know that

6:53 pm

*poof*

6:54 pm

i'll have to look into local laws, make sure i do it right

maybe you should see about doing what dawg did, nut

6:54 pm

steve... are you actually in dallas?

6:54 pm

ok, gots to go light the wood burner and bathe, thanks for the ideas guys, later!

later, nut

6:54 pm

bye nut! let us know if you shoot them... could be fun!

Oh nutty horrid. Where my parents live in pA, they come and spotlight the deer at night....even though yes it is posted.

6:55 pm

nighty night, nutty nut

turtle, maybe you should tell them about dawg's approach?

6:55 pm

red, i fixed that, i spotlight them back

6:56 pm

lol, nutty treats them like trolls!

they seem to have worked out whatever they can...the spotlighting ill never stop because its too hard to figure out who is who in the dark, small communtiy...

I'm not opposed to hunting, but I *strongly* believe in sportsmanship

6:57 pm

i don't mind hunting either, but not in my backyard...literally.

I'm with you Tyger. my parents simply do not want hunting on land because they do not want to be shot themselves....hunters are sometimes carelss, like Dick Cheny.

of course not, dawg. it's stupid to do it in areas with houses

6:57 pm

hi, again

Hiiiii Pam!

yeah, turtle. I wonder sometimes what would have happened had he not been using birdshot

WB, pam

Well and they are sort of non violent people.

6:58 pm

i live in the county, and even though there are houses nearby, there are always idiots who think they are special! good thing one of my neighbors is a highway patrolman!

6:58 pm

woot! 58!

6:58 pm

hi, red

6:58 pm

hi Pam

6:58 pm

hey weed... did you see my message in FB

congratulations feather

and they're entitled to do as they choose with their own property

6:59 pm

there are so many "accidents" where people are shot in their backyards by "hunters" Really fries me.

hey, feather - and Lickety's back, too :)

6:59 pm

hi feather!

6:59 pm

Hi, lbd! and feather, and kje

6:59 pm

I have never heard about hunting around houses... taht is F-ing insane!

7:00 pm

hi pam

I know people out in the country that have to put red or orange stuff on their COWS

7:00 pm

about 20 years ago a woman was out camping in a very ORANGE tent. she was shot to death by hunters, who thought the tent was a deer.

7:00 pm

*imagining a cow with an orange hunting vest on*

were they drunk?

I hope they were prosecuted

7:00 pm

And, a woman was shot a few years ago because her white mittens were mistaken for a deer's tail WHILE SHE WAS HANGING LAUNDRY IN HER YARD....

7:00 pm

LOL, kje

7:01 pm

no kje, where'd you leave me a message?

7:01 pm

in the IM

this is making me queasy, guys

7:01 pm

i don't remember the whole case, but the woman was the daughter of one of the local aristocrats. the guys lost their privilege to hunt in montana for life.

7:01 pm

you were ignoring me... AGAIN

7:01 pm

that was near here i believe pam

kje, in BabExp?

that was insufficient punishment, dawg

7:02 pm

tyger... that comment was for feather, sorry for the confusion

7:02 pm

yw, zeek :)

7:03 pm

7:03 pm

ho!

7:04 pm

actually, kje, if i take yours, then fran can keep the one she's holding for me. IF you're feeling generous.....

I will be sure to come in tonite around flip so I can see how MrP is doing

7:04 pm

there are a lot of hunting horror stories in montana. lots of idiots allowed to use guns

7:04 pm

watchucallme?

7:04 pm

7:05 pm

ex brother in law used to have to put his black chow in a pink vest to keep him being mistaken for a bear duing bear season

7:06 pm

how about till friday? i can do that!

did anybody else notice how many words there were that have similar endings?

there were all the 6s with the same last 5 letters

7:06 pm

*wondering what the catch is* so, what... you won't be online until friday???

3 of them

7:07 pm

lol, no, not at all. friday just seems better than next monday!

7:07 pm

that is funny steve

7:07 pm

OK... we have a deal then : )... now take your scrabble turns too : )

7:07 pm

it is a big state, tyger... too many idiots, though, as lbd pointed out....

7:07 pm

that's sad, steve. a chow doesn't look anything like a black bear! i know i've had bears in my backyard

then all those that rhymed with what you write to say how you're leaving your property when you die

7:08 pm

yay! ok, brb....daniel's hollering. one sec!

well, peeps, if you all insist on continuing the subject, I'm outta here. I've had enough

8:26 pm

Thank you Lickety!

8:27 pm

Hello all!

8:28 pm

how long was he gone, Jilli?? Hello!

8:29 pm

Seems like forever, Krista -- maybe a week or 10 days while moving where there was an ADSL problem I think

8:30 pm

Meanswhile the speed experts provided stats in BabAnon, hooray for them!

8:31 pm

meanwhile

8:32 pm

wow, that IS a long time

8:32 pm

he carries a great responsibility, doesn't he, lol?!

8:33 pm

when did he get back, Krista? I've been away from here all day and finished last night

8:34 pm

So many of us really missed him, Krista, but you've been around so long that I guess you can whiz through this listless like sprite, hurshy, and others who were in at the beginning

8:35 pm

and jacula, who doesn't even like clues from other babblers!

8:36 pm

*shaking head in wonderment*

8:38 pm

i'm not sure when he returned...i have a laptop now and didn't put the list on it yet...nah, i'm an old timer but not fast finisher at all!

8:38 pm

hi krista and jill!

8:38 pm

i usually get caught up in chatting and dont finish at all!!

8:38 pm

hi dc!

8:39 pm

hey you! nice to see you!

8:39 pm

i usually manage in spite of my chatting

8:39 pm

and you, have you been krista?

8:39 pm

chatting is half the fun (or more)

8:39 pm

jill, i see your internet was interrupted for a bit?

8:39 pm

indeed, jill, it is

8:39 pm

for example, i have 5 left and between tv, email, and this, haven't looked at the grid in about 20 min lol

8:40 pm

clues for no6/24 and un5/12 last 2

8:41 pm

dc, I don't think so -- just have been doing other things today since finishing last night -- getting rid of some of the guilt for babbling when I should be doing other things

8:41 pm

un 5/12: not illuminated

8:41 pm

dont have the other one myself

8:41 pm

no6 no va in english, more or less

8:42 pm

no6 - lacking self

8:42 pm

no6 -- nobody + proceed

8:42 pm

babble guilt. we should have a support group. which would just mean more time dedicated to babble!

8:42 pm

thank you just couldn't see it

8:42 pm

TOO true, krista!

8:43 pm

i thought we were a support group :)

8:43 pm

Yes, we are I guess. A meta supoort group?

8:43 pm

That's true too, dc, lol!

8:43 pm

thanks for clues..need to see what it means now

8:44 pm

regis -- did that finish you?

8:44 pm

go GEESH

8:44 pm

thanks again finished

8:44 pm

YAY regis!!!

8:44 pm

lol - i was totally "seeing" that word the wrong way..the no 6/24...thought it was some exotic word

8:44 pm

congrats!

8:45 pm

congrats, regis!!!

8:45 pm

Krista, advice on seeing the no 6/24 in a different way? I'm missing the clue, too.

8:45 pm

funny how that happens, krista, even to common words

8:46 pm

jilli's clue was nobody + proceed...did u see that one?

8:47 pm

now must turn on oven to reheat leftover super-pizza (shiitake mushroom, feta cheese, roasted red pepper, bamboo shoots). Can't remember where I got it (frozen) and can't find another -- it was SO good!

8:47 pm

gu6? the first one?

8:47 pm

not + ***, id, super...

8:48 pm

it's a compound word, meaning not occupied with self

8:48 pm

ah, got it-- added extra letter. thanks.

8:48 pm

LOL, kris

but most were pretty boring

9:05 pm

AAAhhhh I see...like sally field on flying nun?

I got kinda tickled. I saw a very elderly nun in a habit 4 years ago. my knee replacement was done at a Catholic hosp. this ancient nun made the rounds through pre-op the day of my surgery

she must have been at *least* 90

9:06 pm

the pizza has spinach too, light mozarella -- all organic-- wish I could find it again! It was called A.C. LaRocco...

9:07 pm

hola, viajes

9:07 pm

I am burned out on travel and staying still for the time being!

no6: not any + not stop

9:07 pm

but I was most recently in Kenya and Ethiopia!

LOL very good

9:08 pm

lacking a not-id is the no6

wow. and do you want to tell us what you were doing there?

9:08 pm

thanks tyger!

9:08 pm

9:09 pm

sittin still whereish, viajes?

9:10 pm

9:12 pm

we had flurries today, Seain

9:12 pm

that one's fine, thx, kris - the other one will probably have to be done in the next several years

9:13 pm

we've not yet here in reston/herndon, though i'm sure there will be ice on the car in the AM

but I wish I had one of those prostheses designed for women

this one makes my foot set wrong

9:14 pm

I guess I should put in a userpic or something...

9:15 pm

i mist away , folks. lovely seeing everyone, and making your acquaintance, viajes.

9:15 pm

hi tyger

you have to "go pro" first, via - but it's a one-time fee - worth it. you get all the stats permanently

otherwise, you lose them after 2 weeks

9:15 pm

9:23 pm

thanks!

we're a little crazy around here sometimes, but mostly nice and friendly

yvw

do you just want to get the clues now, kat? I may not be here too much longer

9:26 pm

good night all! thanks so much for clues, tyger.

nite, kris

9:27 pm

hmm... anyone have a hint on the first gu6?

en 6/18

1st gu6: a big-nosed monkey in S. America

9:27 pm

idicy: join

en6/18: someone who wants to be a soldier will en6 in the army

tyvm!!

yw :)

via, did that clue work for you?

9:29 pm

I'm not good with monkey names, unfortunately...

9:30 pm

I'm just typing in random letters but so far no luck.

oops. I've kept saying these are from S. America. I just checked, and they're African

gu6/27: gu + wh** did you get back from Africa + not off

via, we call that sort of trying for a word "monkeying" :D

9:31 pm

Yay!

9:31 pm

I win!

9:31 pm

Thank you!

y'know - like the chimps & typewriters thing?

yvw, via, and yay!

9:32 pm

exactly. I learn all sorts of strange words that way.

yep

warning: some words in the Enable list (which Babble draws from) aren't really words. they're not in any dictionary. I have no clue how they got on the list

9:33 pm

At least once I clicked on the little question mark to look up a word, and it went to the dictionary page and said "no such word"

they can be *very* annoying - especially when there's a real word in a grid that's not in the Enable list

not surprised. it happens every so often

9:34 pm

Yeah, they seem pretty inconsistent with slang terms

oh, my. tell me about it!

there's a broad selection of Scottish dialect in the list, though

9:35 pm

I never know what to expect... but sometimes "monkeying" leads me to a real word that I know. Like I try different letter combinations and then something jumps out at me and I think, "Why didn't I notice that word before? Why did I have to try "lkej" to get there?"

you'll see that for some of the strange words that are in the dictionary

LOL

9:36 pm

:) Well, I'm logging off; I'll see you the next time I either a) am finished with my work and have extra time, or more likely b) am evilly procrastinating while I'm supposed to be working

nice to have met you, via. look forward to seeing you again

9:37 pm

be well!

thx, you too

the last gu 6/27... i know someone said it was a monkey.... i still don't get it

I'm getting sleepy. if there's anybody needing clues, speak up ASAP

although, i studied primates, and mokeys are very different than apes and other types of primates

gu6: gu + wh** did you join? + not off

9:39 pm

can you clue the last word un

I think you'll recognize the word, once you've got it

sure

un6: un + melody

tyger, oh i have that one...

i need the other one then

9:40 pm

lol, got, that was too easy, TY!

LOL, kat. what else don't you have? Lickety's list is back up

yvw

eyes are getting very heavy

gu 6/27... not the monkey one... which is really a small ape... not a monkey... lol... damn college, i learned too much for my own good, haha!

i need a un as well. un5,12. any help?

gu 6,27 rhymes with the path through a mountain

katy: dark

un5: un + PT of causing dark to go

somebody *** a cigarette, for another

i thought i typed that in a million times, but it worked this time. Thanks! firewords for me!

yw, and yay, katy

anyone need anything before I go?

need to go before I doze off here. nytol

guess not. then good night all! and happy babbling.

ok, katy... i'm blonde here... need another clue

shoot

9:50 pm

un5 = no lights on. un4 = old-fashioned word, as in 'do un** others as you would be done by'. un6 = make something no longer melodic.

tyger, the first gu 6/27... its my LAST word

9:52 pm

1st gu6/27 is a type of monkey. gu + anagram of a 4-letter word meaning 'zilch, nothing. nada'.

not the monkey one

9:54 pm

Then you need the 2nd gu2.67, which is a type of fish and also the upper edge of a boat. Gu* (weapon) + Dickens' 'Little ***' without her last letter.

9:55 pm

It rhymes with the fu6. (What you use to pour liquids into a bottle.)

10:36 pm

I'm fine thanks, kje. Might be ready to go back to bed soon. How are you?

10:36 pm

I am fine jac... why are you up?

10:37 pm

Hot flushes/flashes, kje. It's my age, you know.:(

10:37 pm

kje, you type the way I was talking today. I just couldn't get the words out straight today

10:37 pm

sorry jac... cold shower needed?

10:38 pm

I know nef!!! it is probably a sign that i should not be here trying to type

10:38 pm

Nooooooooo, kje. One minute I'm boiling and the next I am freezing. Are you trying to give me a heart attack?

10:38 pm

LOL jac... so sorry

10:39 pm

OK, I am going back to my online shopping... later

10:39 pm

Hope that's not online grocery shopping.

10:40 pm

kje, good luck "timulating the economy!"

10:40 pm

You can't trust a store to give you the freshest stuff. They are going to give youall the things with the shortest sell by dates because they need to get rid of them.

10:41 pm

But online for books, dvds, cds etc is brillian.

10:43 pm

that should have been "STIMULATING: not timulating

10:43 pm

No idea if Nef's 'timulating' was a typo or done on purpose, but it reminded me of a couple of malapropisms my stepdaughter has come out with over the years. Once, when she felt she was being blamed unfairly all on her own for something, she told us she wasn't going to be an 'escape goat'.

10:44 pm

Another time, when I asked her to get milk from the shop for me, she came back and said, 'It was semi-skilled milk you wanted, wasn't it?'

10:45 pm

that's good! My keyboard sticks ; but it's my old one and my new one has a space bar that doesn't work. It seems I have a bad habit of dumping my morning coffee int othe keyboard latley

10:46 pm

I love it when kids get words wrong because they can onl identify with what they know so far. I even remember my own mistakes of that kind.

10:47 pm

I make terrible mistakes when I'm tired.

10:47 pm

Backin the 80s, when computers were first introduced into my office, we were not allowed to have food and drink anywhere near them.

10:48 pm

We were allowed to smoke by them, though. LOL

10:48 pm

I once was helping turn a patient and I told him I was going to "put 2 heads under your pillow" (meaning 2 pillows under his head)

10:50 pm

Nef - that reminds me of the time when my daughter had punched a hole in her temple by falling on a rusty bolt on a trailer. (Yes, I still shudder at the memory.) The nurse, trying to be kind, told her, 'There's nothing to worry about. We're just going to take a picture of the inside of your head.'

10:51 pm

Oh MY! What an awful experience for both of you!

10:51 pm

I knew at once, by the lookof terror on my daughter's face what she was thinking. 'They're NOT going to saw the top of your head off,' I told her. It's a special camera that can look inside without doing that.

10:53 pm

Talking of puttng heads under pillows, Nef. I used to tell my kids not to sleep with their heads under their pillows lest the Tooth Fairy should mistakenly remove ALL of their teeth. *evil cackle*

10:53 pm

did she have any residual problems from that fall?

10:54 pm

Jacula! For shame! ;)

10:55 pm

No, Nef. But she fell off a swivel chair when sleeping at my parents about 2 years later and hit the corner of a cupboard and made a huge hole just below the nose end of her right eyebrow.

10:56 pm

One of their dogs, A Bearded Collie, well known breed for herding children and nursemaiding them, found her and alerted them. We got a call in the night and rushed out to take her to hospital.

10:56 pm

How did you live through such a self-destructive child? I would have been well past menopause before 40 if it was me!

10:57 pm

I wanted to kill the doctor when he stuck his finger in the wound and wiggled it around and more blood spurated everywhere.

10:57 pm

OMG! that's terrible!

10:59 pm

Apparently, he was checking to see if 'the brain had been pierced'. I do hoope he's no longer a doctor.

10:59 pm

there are plenty of other games that are free whats the deal with paying for this one

10:59 pm

better games

10:59 pm

We like THIS game and its community, Pounder.

11:00 pm

Jac, I too hope he's no longer endangering lives like that

11:00 pm

Our fee is one time only. If you want to play WoW, there's a monthly fee. Thousands of people play WoW.

11:01 pm

Pounder, this is a challenging game and the community is nice. Have you tried playing the game for a few days?

11:02 pm

I think I've seen Punder here before, Nef.

11:02 pm

ok

11:07 pm

Anyway, Nef, my daughter is 21 now. She was a perfect baby (I used tohave to wake her up to feed her, had to punch more holes in the teat for her to get the milk quick enough, then she'd be sleeping as I changed her nappy). She became anorectic at 13 and spent 3 years in a clinic. Now she is managing life okay, got all her o levels and took an art degree, is now at Uni and is also doing a biology A level because she has decided she wants to be a radiographer (person who takes x rays).

11:08 pm

Good for her, jac -- and hello again all

11:08 pm

hi all - for coffee proble'nn' get a plastic key cover - also keeps out cru'nn'bs, etc. Sarah wrap works too. Is it really as short as it see'nn's today??

11:09 pm

does everyone realise Lickety is back?

11:09 pm

*Saran [plastic brand]

11:10 pm

coffee problem?

11:10 pm

Relieved that she no longer wanted to work as a nurse or a counsellor in an eating disorders clinic, I asked her why radiology? Wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry over her reply... 'Anorexics love looking at bones, Mum! This way, I can look at bones but they aren't my own.'

11:10 pm

oh, lol, jac!

11:10 pm

Hi jilli.

11:11 pm

spilling wake up coffee on keys was talked about

11:11 pm

oh, I missed that, nDan, obviously

11:12 pm

glad life has turned a corner for her Jac

11:12 pm

I see why no food or drink is allowed in our library, lol

11:13 pm

Thanks Dan.

11:14 pm

Jilli - yes the 'LOL' was somewhat not sure if it was gleeful or down-shouldered.

11:14 pm

they're hardier now; i prefer univ library cause you can eat/drink while working

11:15 pm

jac, the lol was gleeful :)

11:15 pm

You can buy a rubber keyboard now that you can put into the washing machine. It's a cr*p keyboard though.

11:16 pm

Sorry, Jac. I wandered off to fix some hot cocoa (It's chilly here tonight). And it was me who spilt coffee in 2 different keyboards, jilli

11:16 pm

Jilli - I meant my LOL.

11:17 pm

8% of anorectics don't recover but 'manage' the illness. 'Annie' is on their back or shoulders every minute of every day.

11:17 pm

Jac; isn't it great when the kidlets actually grow up and start being human again?

11:17 pm

nDan, our library is mainly run by volunteers, most of whom are lederly ladies and don't need the hassle of cleaning up after spills and crumbs, or bits of paper thrown on the floor carelessly by hearty young men.

11:17 pm

It is indeed, Nef.

11:18 pm

It really sounds like your daughter has done a 180 degree turn-around!

11:18 pm

But it is also lovely when they are young and innocent and they think you 'know everything'.

11:19 pm

also a virtual one = either displays on desk surface w/ optics, or can 'nn'ouse over one on the scree

11:19 pm

oh; THAT is the *other* stage I liked my kids the best! ;)

11:19 pm

Nef - she's living life to the full - it's just me who's worrying if she takes too much on and gets stressed and... well you know.

11:20 pm

A Mum's perogative, I guess.

11:20 pm

nDan.ia; how do the virtual ones work for sleepy people?

11:21 pm

jilli - hearty young men? There's a good old-fashioned, 'if I was younger, I'd...' phrase.

11:21 pm

I hear you loud and clear Jac. My daughter is 25 and has made me realize that some Moms must live on needles and pins with difficult kids

11:22 pm

they actually have an interface now that reads brain waves [was watching parapelegic doc], so i suspect we'll get a "brain inlet" surgeon in few years

11:23 pm

Dan - that sounds a bit like a sci-fi series we've been watching here.

11:23 pm

does, but life is going at a good clip for technology

11:25 pm

I don't want my brain wired to a computer that interfaces with my brain. What if it found out I have a short? ;)

11:27 pm

[one person did have a "screw" wired into her head & is working on using it to power a wheelchair; others were wearing caps, used for pc s [where control wasn't as critical]

11:28 pm

Series was 'Fringe'. I just asked Other Half, since he just got up for work,

11:29 pm

Jac, how long have you been up? It's what? -6 Am there now?

11:29 pm

she's a night "sweat" owl

11:29 pm

LOL!

11:29 pm

Series was on Fox in USA, Ninenetwork in Aus and Sky1 in UK.

11:30 pm

lelo

11:30 pm

whoops!

11:31 pm

Actually, I'm bl**dy freezing at the moment.

11:31 pm

But I'll prbably be boiling again in half an hour or so.

11:31 pm

from being tired? that's when I get chilled

11:33 pm

Probably Nef, but it works both ways whatever time I go to bed. I can sleep uninterupted if I drink a little too much alcohol, but I don't think that's the right way to go.

11:33 pm

uninterrupted, I meant.

11:34 pm

I hate making spelling mistakes.

11:34 pm

Blame it on having gone to a Grammar School.

11:34 pm

well, don't "sweat" it. we all make mistakes

11:35 pm

LOL

11:35 pm

how would you like being raised by the school superintendent? Who *really* believed in Spelling Bees?

11:36 pm

Is there such a thing as grammar any more?

11:36 pm

Nef - I believe in 10 a day spelling tests. The work!

11:36 pm

They work, I meant. I am v.v. tired.

11:37 pm

poor jac -- you're having ahard time with The Pause

11:37 pm

oh, here in the US, there is a National Spelling Bee. My Aunt wanted our county to always go to the State (at least!)

11:37 pm

The only way to learn things you got wrong is to repeat them.

11:37 pm

I've seen the Spelling Bee finals on TV

11:39 pm

This cissy tesching thing about notusing a red pen to correct errors (red is seen as aggresive) and using a green pen to correct only the worst errors, but not all errors, is CR*P! Never mind upsetting the poor little dears. How will the poor little dears know they've got it wrong if you don't tell them?

11:39 pm

they are fun to watch, jilli;;; but not to compete to get there!

11:39 pm

Sorry! Hobby horse of mine re education methods in the UK.

11:40 pm

okay, I need help with my last 2 words. I've been chatting instead of spelling here, and now it

11:41 pm

it's time to finish and go to bed. Any hits for the fl 4/8 and the fr 5/16 please?

11:42 pm

I thought the Brit education I got was pretty good -- when I hit the USA at age 13 in 1940 I was years ahead of my age group -- they wanted to put me in the last year of high school (grade 12)

11:43 pm

fr is pl

11:43 pm

That was based on an English test

11:43 pm

dont have a 4 8

11:43 pm

jilli - the education system got hit by PC-ness in the late 1980s.

11:43 pm

It's the other fr nDan

11:43 pm

oh i see it - chi'nn'ney feature

11:44 pm

more's the pity, jac

11:44 pm

fl4.8 is a chimney tunnel.

11:44 pm

other fr is pretty dressy girly dress will have lace and fr5 16s

11:44 pm

one flea fly flew up the fl4

11:44 pm

fr5.16 is a plural - old word for frightens.

11:44 pm

working in low light conditions

11:45 pm

Thank you nDan!

11:45 pm

I agree, re the education system, jilli.

11:46 pm

nDan, when you get a computer witha workeing keyboard, will you be so much in the habit that you'll still type 'nn' for m?

11:46 pm

blast the typos

11:47 pm

somehow I goofed. I was looking in Licketys' list and now that I'm back at the grid; I don't need the fr 5/16 (I already had it) I Do need the le 4/4/

11:47 pm

nef, Jay of the big chin

11:48 pm

I have tried that a million times, jilli. THIS time it worked ! Thank you! Fireworks

11:48 pm

YAY nef!!!

11:49 pm

THANK YOU for the help! :)

11:49 pm

yvw, nef

11:52 pm

Just in time to shoot my hubby and get to bed (give him his shot, that is!) You know, it's much easier *giving* shots than getting them! :)

11:52 pm

What did I miss? Did jilli make typos??

11:52 pm

LOL Nef.

11:52 pm

we all did Jac

11:53 pm

I always make typoos

11:53 pm

Don't care who else made typos, Nef, other than Jilli. Typhoons, jilli? LOL

11:54 pm

I don't think I'll go there

11:54 pm

Or is it Typhoo tea you hanker after?

11:54 pm

I think they are the keyboards' fault. It's getting even with me for spilling it

11:54 pm

I'm a PG Tips girl, myself.

11:54 pm

Mine's full of ash. Must give up smoking.

11:55 pm

YES, jac :-|

11:56 pm

I know, jilli. I know.

11:56 pm

You'll be glad when you do, I know.

11:56 pm

Good night everybody. Happy Babbling

11:57 pm

night nef!

11:58 pm

waiting for the flip

11:58 pm

me too

11:58 pm

hello

11:58 pm

But I enjoy smoking and I do object to the way smokers have been ostracised. The government will never ban smoking because they rake in so much revenie from it, but no other group would be the victim of this kind of discrimination. I'm sure it's not PC nor legal if put to the test.

11:58 pm

hope it's small again, and comprehensible

11:59 pm

that last grid was too easy

11:59 pm

hello mlfan

11:59 pm

hi mlf

11:59 pm

hi jill no way not that small

11:59 pm

I used to feel that way when I smoked, jac

11:59 pm

I'll wait for the new grid and then wander off back to bed.

11:59 pm

hi dale
