1:01 am

ohhhhboy i can't keep my eyes open... gnite all!

1:02 am

1:02 am

It's not raining in LA right now. Go, Christine. Go!!!

1:03 am

I broke 100!

1:03 am

1:03 am

"They" say there'll be three storms this weekend - may make our rainfall quota, if we;re really lucky. And the snow is very low down thw mountains, this year

1:03 am

I am at 120 and am going to bed-

1:03 am

just tried snee again for the ten thousandth time and it still doesn't work

1:04 am

what part of LA are you in

1:04 am

I'm at 64 / 98 now...will save some for the morning (I'm fading now)..NYTOL

1:04 am

I think it needs "snicker" in front, jill

1:04 am

right, stid

1:04 am

But I'd need to get dressed, call a cab, find a shop that's open - anyway, I'm just too darned lazy, I need a wife, who would do things for me

1:04 am

1:05 am

I'm in Hollywood

1:05 am

I will be in burbank on Tuesday

1:06 am

What's happening in beautiful downtown Burbank?

1:06 am

Work- I am in San Diego but my boss is up there

1:07 am

we're neighbors, Christine

1:07 am

where are you?

1:07 am

Right near the Burbank airport. Near the YAHOO building

1:07 am

I have Brit cousins in Brentwood

1:08 am

just south of you. miracle mile/hancock park-ish

1:08 am

my great-great-aunt used to live in burbank. my great great grandfather was a policeman there in the teens and twenties...

1:08 am

Nice places, Hancock Park and Brentwood

1:09 am

btw... the elder stidkid just put himself back on the market... *nailing discounted sale sign to side of house*

1:09 am

note the "ish" :-)

1:09 am

Never been to any part of LA

1:09 am

my granny used to live in eaglerock/highland park just west of pasadena

1:09 am

for how much Stid?

1:10 am

My uncle lives in Ventura

1:10 am

will include all his college savings, furniture and my first year's earnings as a teacher (when I get there)

1:10 am

I went to LA for my first honeymoon

1:10 am

*grin* he comes with trumpets though *includes earplugs in package deal*

1:11 am

what did he do this time, stid?

1:11 am

good luck with that Stid... does he clean or cook or just blow trumpets

1:11 am

Does the elder stickkid have a job?

1:11 am

hmmm... I wonder if trumpets and clarinets go well together

1:11 am

dissed people who take shop classes when his brother asked if there is metal shop at the high school...

1:12 am

how old is he stid?

1:12 am

personally, I would have taken shop classes if I had been able to fit them into my schedule! and the younger stidkid would enjoy the creativity...

1:12 am

clarinets and trumpets works Hugs

1:13 am

our discussion todya was " IF you arenot 100% truthful with me, I can not be you Mom."

1:13 am

the kid is apparently old enough to shoot his mouth off and then get angry when called on his radical and inflammatory language *sigh*

1:13 am

guess you'd better get him enrolled in a shop class

1:13 am

oooh DR! sounds only too familiar!

1:13 am

Good Idea

1:14 am

last year, Britt had the option of shops or home ec classes... so she took shops for half the year and home ec for the other half.

1:14 am

this year they had to choose one or the other

1:15 am

the elder one was, but didn't take advantage of assistance that was available so didn't enjoy it. He has therefore decided that all people in shop classes are unworthy

1:16 am

defensive mechanism

1:17 am

yes, I know that. but he also must learn that one cannot blame everyone else for one's own decisions.

1:18 am

I keep trying "dreft"...

1:18 am

every time that is in the grid, I try it

1:18 am

I remember Dreft -- is it still around?

1:18 am

* nods head in agreement with stid

1:18 am

yes, it is still around!

1:27 am

Yes jill, motorbikes. The joys of motherhood!!

1:27 am

oh man. that stinks

1:28 am

Anyway, it's on the road again...also the joys of living in Perth, the most remote capital city in the world. I wouldn't live anywhere else though.

1:29 am

well, I hope you're better by thenand I hope your son appreciates what you're doing for him!

1:31 am

Must go and have that nap. He's a great son - loves me so much he gave me the flu!!

Well, I stupidly started the last grid, then went back to packing the suitcase and now there's a new grid...GGRRR . I haven't been here for a while and I wanted to get at least one done! Hi Everyone!

jilli!!!! stiddieeeee! Hi all :)

2:26 am

wow jilli, what a splendid rose!

2:27 am

thanks, sprite -- and fireworks too :)

2:28 am

yayyy jilli, good job! Have you seen the icon themes for Xmas?

2:28 am

hadn't looked yet -- will do now!

2:31 am

Ah, great! But actually the song says Five Gold Rings, not golden...

2:31 am

will change it right away

2:34 am

sprite -- have you seen dan2bit's live puppy-watching site? It's off the air just now, but if you scroll down there's a description on the right of what's going on.

2:35 am

It's http://tinyurl.com/bwvnpa

2:36 am

I think they live somewhere where it's close to grid time so if you're around during their daytime you can watch

2:37 am

aw sweet! Thanks jilli! We wanted to visit tomorrow, but the breeder won't let us, lol. Not before they are 2 weeks old.

2:37 am

several of us have been fascinated. There's a chat alongside the movie

2:38 am

so you can watch Australian Shepherd newborns instead :)

2:38 am

theme updated, it says Gold now. Btw, can you tell me what the difference is between gold and golden? Have often wondered. Apart from it being the song text.

2:40 am

Gold is the element itself, and things made of it. Golden describes the colour. At least that's the way I see it.

2:40 am

ok, that makes sense! So a gold ring and a golden light

2:41 am

yes -- and a Golden Retiever :D

2:41 am

*Retriever

2:41 am

hehehe indeed!

2:42 am

you know, I feel so privileged that I can ask all these questions to you guys here. I really learn all the time.

2:43 am

And here you are, the best babbler there is and not even in your first language. I'm in awe.

2:43 am

Good morning jilli and sprite. You seem to be the only two here.

2:44 am

hey Frances!

2:44 am

Hello frances -- and I'm about to go to bed. Have to catch a ferry in the morning.

2:44 am

that is a big fish

2:45 am

har har

2:45 am

Anywhere nice jilli?

2:45 am

love your icon, Frances

2:45 am

Thank you sprite.

2:45 am

Yours is pretty good too.

2:45 am

going to a theatre for a matinee

2:46 am

thank you Frances. What are you going to see, jilli?

2:46 am

Hope you enjoy jilli and hope the water is not too rough.

2:46 am

frances -- did yoou make that gorgeous heart?

2:47 am

Jilli, unfortunately no I found it on a website.

2:48 am

Keep thinking I can see fever.

2:48 am

that was my first word, didn't work. But it gave me a 6 letter one that worked.

2:49 am

4:12 am

thanks lady, yeah it sucks. My friend had a tumor removed recently and they said: good news, your lymphe node is removed at the top of your leg, so it cannot go anywhere else.

4:12 am

and then they found cancer in an artery and now the news is not so good anymore, they call her a time bomb now.

4:13 am

4:14 am

I am beginning to think Malthus was right

4:14 am

about what?

4:17 am

famine?

4:17 am

He postulated the population of the Earth would eventually exceed the resources available to sustain the people. He likened the situation to experiments down with mice. The mice eventually cannibalized to stay alive.

4:17 am

horrible idea but probably true

4:18 am

I tried decept and decepts ugh times. Childish of enable not to let me have those.

I am here but my Ihave been off line for a week sort of lots of emails to catch up

4:19 am

I suppose that enable has such a big head now nothing and no one will be able to talk any sense into it

4:20 am

you are right about that, BabbleRabble.

The friend taht had the tumor removed that is good news?

4:21 am

sprite and then they found cancer in an artery and now the news is not so good anymore, they call her a time bomb now.

sorry sorry sorry Sprite I did not see that

4:22 am

We watched Susan Sarandon yesterday! Had a good cry

btw- I cried today when one of the high school choirs came and sang "The Wind Beneath My Wings" to the woman in the office next door- a V-Day gift from her hubby

Magmom my dad is a HUGE Babs fan. I have a lot of the vinyl's

5:03 am

Oh poor baby. What is wrong with maddy?

5:04 am

only popsicles then... Tell her get well soon from us and a tender hug

she got a throat infection... flu sucks

yw, that should have helped some, but i am still missing some p's and some c's.

Oh poor thing hugs the maddy

5:05 am

5:05 am

ouch! poor baby! hope the antibiotics work quickly

Don't you get sick Mr Pres

morning herein

5:06 am

aw magmom, I know! But just your being there and caring for them makes a whole world of difference anyway.

5:22 am

G'd morning BAbblers! Another small grid.

5:22 am

Hello again. Muttmeister has had a nice walk and now I can perhaps concentrate on this.

I have a Bond phantom: Specter

5:28 am

huh..... how is that possible? 2nd post arrived first!

5:28 am

okay, can't find almost-starter, or not-quite-fever, or close-to-a-female-writer ... apart from that

5:30 am

not quite fever is doing something intensely... with fe6. close to female writer is pe7 writing utensil + female ending

5:33 am

Enable refusing to accept tech is annoy-itating.

I know I'm going to be directed to the PB...but since when isn't "pents" NOT a word??? i.e., He pents up his anger all the time! (Is that incorrect?)

9:05 am

* gads...did I kill the chog? *

p4 is really sort of a past tense word, like sp5, so you can't add an s

9:05 am

lol pini, I just don't know the answer :-)

think of it like an alternate spelling of penned

9:06 am

well, that's just not fair, FQ...I want it to be a word!!!!!

I am just a little tired. Going on a bird mission later...the great herons are nesting near highway and hopefully nothing has hatched and I can get some photos. waiting for camera battery to charge.

9:09 am

wow...that should be pretty spectacular, red!!! would love to see a snapshot or two...

let shope they are not hatched. I have been watching for a while, saw them build the nest, then Mom reminded me they dont just nest forever...!

9:10 am

* giggle * I'd hate to be a mom who nested forever!!!!

LOL

9:17 am

yes. so i don't see how i can go out and be ready. and i may even stay overnight in MD

9:54 am

Hi Haz!

9:54 am

Hello there!

9:54 am

Good for you TO. I am definitely driving down and back tomorrow.

9:56 am

Hello, all!

9:56 am

Greetings Vic

9:56 am

Hello Vicuna!

9:56 am

It seems to be accepting words again for now.

9:57 am

Now I just need to find some more.

9:57 am

I seem to have been fortunate enough to miss the big turnoff of babble, although it was temperamental earlier on as well.

9:58 am

Heya vic

9:58 am

Hello, tor.

9:58 am

I thought of you the day "servo" was in the grid. =D

9:59 am

Ah, we're back! Now where was I...? *pe4s at grid*

9:59 am

hi Jac. I had major problems this morning when I tried to get on.

10:00 am

clues for the bottom e plz

10:00 am

ec5/16 - past tense of ec6

10:00 am

*!* ta da *!* -- lickety's list helped me find some new ones :)

10:00 am

et6/18 - a seabird for ever enclosed in vowels?

10:01 am

nice clue, Haz!

hey did the site just burp for you, it did for me! i blame haz!

10:01 am

great clue haz -- love your cryptic efforts

10:01 am

ty haz and vic

10:01 am

Thank you!

10:01 am

WOOHOO NAN

10:01 am

off to pb now and then on to the market ;)

10:01 am

beautiful clue haz! got it

10:01 am

Why blame Haz? It's bound to have been FM's fault.

10:01 am

Since when has Haz been associated with burping in any shape or form, TO?

10:02 am

jmnhhhhhhhhh

10:02 am

oops, a note from the daschund

10:03 am

He must be a very stretchy dachshund if he can readh the keyboard.

10:03 am

I believe that is good morning in daschund-ese

10:03 am

not bad for a caschund; thanks for the translation

10:03 am

*daschund

10:03 am

If he can read it, he's got a stretchy brain, too.

10:03 am

LOL Haz, I have my laptop on the bed and she danced across the keyboard in her effort to make sure the other dog didn't get all the petting

10:04 am

That explains things, magmom. I had visions of Slinky, the toy story dog, being able to do all manner of manoeuvres.

10:05 am

Tootsie only wishes she were that athletic :-)

10:06 am

good morning babblers :)

10:06 am

Are both dogs dachshunds?

10:06 am

was it just me or was the site down earlier?

10:06 am

Good morning, Nono.

10:07 am

My bichon is happy/sad that my granddaughter Savannah has left. He doesn't get his tail pulled, but he misses sitting under her highchair and catching the flying orts

10:07 am

YEAH! fireworks! *racing off to the shower*

10:07 am

Nice use of a Babblet in normal conversation, bichon!

10:07 am

woohooo congrats Judy

10:07 am

Yay for CiociaJudy!

10:07 am

Congratulations Ciocia.

10:08 am

no haz, I also have a german shepard/collie mix

10:08 am

wtg Ciocia

10:09 am

You'd expect the collie mix to be ultra-bright, would I be right?

hi jacs an dmm and vi

by the time you all see this - IF you see it - i'll be gone. the site is acting up and i cannot stand it anymore. later!

10:09 am

See you later, TO!

10:09 am

by TO

10:09 am

Well, we saw it... but I guess there's no use in saying Goodbye...

10:10 am

site seems ok to me now but I could not get in earlier this morning

10:10 am

Haz- Blossom is amazing- she's a rescue dog, but some one trained her well. She is the best dog I have ever had. She does have an addiction to the b-a-l-l, but we can't find her a 12 step program for that.

10:11 am

Do you use her in agility or anything like that or is she just a pet?

10:12 am

Haz, what do you mean by "just a pet". Being a pet is the first and foremost <ggg>

10:13 am

I know. I actually thought about that when I was writing it - 'just' isn't really appropriate, is it?

10:13 am

no, she is older and she's just our big, furry girl. She stays on my daughter's bed at night unril she is asleep and then she parksherself in teh hallway prepared to take a leg off anyone who might bother us

10:13 am

"exclusively a pet" might work

10:14 am

Thank you, Vicuna, you've got the mot juste. I never introduce myself as 'just' a housewife, now that I know I'm really a self-scheduling domestic overseer.

10:15 am

I'm a layabout, with kids.

10:15 am

Nonsense, you're a nurturer of future glory seekers.

10:15 am

Except when I'm in Artiste mode, of course.

10:16 am

I like that one haz, may I appropriate for future use?

10:16 am

Absolutely, magmom.

10:17 am

You may find your words in this month's magazine :-)

10:17 am

That's why we all respect Haz. She's no mere housewife!

10:17 am

seriously I must got to work. I leave Blossom and Tootsie to guard the place in my absence. Have a good day all!

10:18 am

Bye, magazinemom.

10:18 am

Bye magazinemom, have a good day.

10:19 am

bye magazinemom

10:19 am

Ha! Just found the spiny vole.

10:20 am

I've missed that little guy.

10:22 am

Oh, and the moody kids who're ov4 12 and under 20.

10:23 am

I haven't missed them.

10:23 am

I wonder if the spiny vole is moody in its adolescent years?

10:23 am

You know, all prickly.

10:23 am

Proably, Haz.

10:23 am

They do tend to be a little prickly.

10:24 am

or even probably.

10:24 am

LOL Vicuna.

10:24 am

"Dinsdale"

10:24 am

te 6/27?

10:24 am

(Haz beats me to the punch yet again! lol)

10:25 am

Pardon, Torg?

10:25 am

nm, got it

10:25 am

I haven't, bichon.

10:25 am

te6/27 - t plus an e5 word in the grid.

10:25 am

It's from Monty Python

10:26 am

Thanks Haz.

10:26 am

You're welcome, Jac.

10:26 am

ty Haz

10:26 am

And bichon.

10:29 am

I went to see the musical Hot Flush last night. It was really funny. Lesley Joseph was in it. Didn't really how tiny she is!

10:29 am

*realise

10:29 am

thats 6,18 haz

10:30 am

try an e5/16 word, and it's not, Katydid.

10:30 am

No, there's te6/27 which is t plus e5/16

10:31 am

thanks! totally missed that e

10:31 am

Is she around the 5 foot mark or smaller?

10:31 am

You're welcome, Katydid.

10:31 am

About 5 foot and very petite.

10:31 am

Ho hum, time to wander off. Bye, all!

10:32 am

'Bye Vicuna.

10:32 am

Not those twins demanding your attention again? See you again, Vi.

10:32 am

bye bye Vicuna

10:33 am

What's her singing voice like, Jacula?

10:34 am

It's good, Haz. All the cast were good. (4 woman and 1 man who played all the males)

10:34 am

Mr Multi-Tasking! Were any of the others well known?

10:35 am

Yes, I've seen 2 of the other women before and the man's quite well known, too.

10:37 am

Norma are you still here?

10:37 am

I went with my Mum and an old schoolfriend and her mum. I think our Mum's had their eyes opened when the song 'Hum Rabbit, Hum' (to the tune of Run Rabbit) came on. I don't think I have to say what the girls were holding! Also, the man in the gimp mask with a collar and lead on in the speed dating scene. The Mums both roared with laughter, thank goodness.

10:37 am

Sorry about the spurious apostrophe!

10:38 am

Lol jacula :-)

10:38 am

Yes Katie

10:38 am

Not to worry, we all make mistakes (although professional sign-writers shouldn't!)

10:39 am

Do you need a lift for tonight & have you got any disposable napkins?

10:40 am

True, Haz. , especially if painting a sign for Mr. Nut The Therapist or the like.

10:40 am

Yes I have got napkins, no I don't need a lift thanks I will be very good and drive .. will bring the napkins sure you don't want anything else

10:41 am

Now I'll start worrying about whether it should be Nut's Therapy or Nuts' Therapy.

10:41 am

LOL, Haz.

10:41 am

He should just call it 'Care to share?'

10:42 am

Good one, Haz. Better than being Mr. Nut The Rapist.

10:43 am

What a thought!

10:47 am

hello all!

10:47 am

Hello stidmama!

10:48 am

hello stidmama

10:48 am

I remember dinsdale, tor -- he was bru'al... but fair. *grin*

10:48 am

I got down to 35 before I left after flip. should I list now?

10:49 am

It's up to you, stid - any time constraints?

10:49 am

Hi all....clue please for cr7/36 please?

10:49 am

not really, just patience constraints

10:49 am

hey flask!

10:49 am

33...

10:50 am

cr6/27 - looks like it might have something to do with beliefs, - follow the c with a colour and run it into a bump in the car.

10:50 am

I don't have that one yet flask... *thinking*

10:51 am

Or c plus a colour plus a number rearranged

10:51 am

now I do! thanks haz!

10:51 am

thanks Haz!

10:51 am

You're welcome.

10:52 am

no cr627, there is a ch6,27 or a cr6,24

10:52 am

need four more C words... hm.

10:52 am

hello katydid!

10:52 am

morning stid!

10:52 am

Sorry, I gave the clue for cr7/36 and got numbers mixed up.

10:52 am

Hi Stid and Katy. I was outside taking some photos.

10:53 am

morning jac.

10:53 am

pics of the lingering snow, jac?

10:53 am

very nice clue for the cr 7/36, Haz

10:54 am

Thanks BabbleRabble.

10:54 am

Yes, Stid. How did you guess? I was looking at the hillock left by my melting snow penguin and had a couple of amusing ideas for pics.

10:54 am

I looked out at the melting snow this morning and had the same idea, but no incentive to go out while I feel yucky. So will send a kid out with the camera later...

10:55 am

Hope you feel better soon, stid.

10:55 am

thanks jacula, so do I. Slept on the sofa last night so I would be more upright. *sigh* not having fun.

10:55 am

what is the plan to deyuckyfy, stid?

10:56 am

down to 30... (except for babble - always fun)

10:56 am

Thanks Norma, see you at 7

10:56 am

live through the flu is my only plan, BR. drinking LOTS of OJ and ginger ale. though right now I might just switch to ALE...

10:58 am

I want to re-arrange the whole grid and try again. *sigh* stench, tench, bench....

10:58 am

not much help: Your search - deyuckyfy - did not match any documents.

10:58 am

You're not going delirious on us, stid?

10:58 am

rofl...

10:59 am

quite possibly, haz. this has been quite a long week.

10:59 am

how about you? did ireland get much snow?

11:00 am

We got a bit, nothing like as much as in England and nothing to compare with what you get routinely. It's all gone again.

11:00 am

Haz - did you see the snow pics from Canada I posted in my blog? Snow up to the rooftops.

11:01 am

firewords! anyone need any clues before I go?

11:01 am

phantom - 'predator'.

11:01 am

I did indeed. That's why I always feel slightly embarrassed when we talk about our difficulties with snow.

11:01 am

Well done, Katy.

11:01 am

that's the thing, haz. where I live we don't get snow routinely. We have the same climate as County Down, (where my Conn ancestors came from) snow, even a couple inches, closes everything. one child hasn't had school since Tuesday at 10 am!

11:01 am

Congratulations Katy!

11:02 am

thanks Jacula and Haz and all

11:02 am

YAY katydid!

11:02 am

i need one more D... have all de and one dr...

11:02 am

*rushing out the door* but need to check on Stid! How are you feeling today?

11:02 am

Same he4 re the d's, stid.

11:03 am

still icky, but not achy. thanks, judy -- you?

11:03 am

The schools, especially in rural areas, depend on buses to bring in children from outlying areas. If the roads aren't salted - too tricky to proceed.

11:03 am

Found it.

11:03 am

has to be a de then, cause the only one d not de is the dr

11:03 am

fine, thanks. Going to see Corey bowl in his league.

there's only one dr, so you must need another de. they are all 4''s and 5's

11:03 am

*sending more hot toddies and chocolate to Stid*

11:03 am

exactly, haz -- and they NEVER gravel or plow our little side road (and our cars are not tall enough to move over de4 snow).

11:04 am

enjoy, judy! wish him luck!

11:04 am

Mine was a de4 that doesn't sound cheap.

11:04 am

thanks katy and fuquay

11:04 am

I'm sure the same excuses/reasons are used the world over - not enough resources.

11:04 am

i have two de 5

11:04 am

k sorry to be rude, but gotta run. *poof*

11:04 am

'Bye Judy.

11:04 am

found it! another de 5

3 de5

11:05 am

i'm outta here too. have a great day all and c-ya tomorrow.

11:05 am

You probably need the plural of not shallow, stid.

11:05 am

'Bye Katy.

11:05 am

*unpoof* want to hear about the show last night Jac. catch you later. *repoof*

11:05 am

and the real reason is not enough planning... although to be fair this winter has had the kind of snow that only comes once every 30-50 years historically. most years the equipment would just sit rusting.

11:05 am

thanks jac -- that was it, actually!

11:06 am

y/w, stid.

11:06 am

Judy - okay.

11:06 am

later katydid! thanks!

11:07 am

need 4 Cs. i I have 5 ch and 5 cr, the rest are CE?

11:07 am

Yes, stid

11:07 am

thanks.

11:07 am

had record snowfall in december and very little since ... now have patches of bare ground ... not like 20 years ago

11:08 am

what was it like 20 years ago BR? (I, of course, cannot remember, being only a young thing...) *wicked grin*

11:08 am

Delirious and delusional....

11:09 am

there. Cs collected.

11:09 am

23 now.

11:09 am

rofl...

11:09 am

more snow and colder 50 years ago even more so

11:10 am

maybe if we take your weather and our weather it will all balance out, because we are certainly colder and snowier (though drier) than within normal limits

11:10 am

brb, 'phone

11:12 am

need four more H words. have 2 5s and a 6, the rest are 4s?

11:12 am

1966 picture I referred to in the past: http://tinyurl.com/ar66ed

There are 3 he 6 words

11:12 am

And three he5 words

11:12 am

thanks haz. *looking*

11:13 am

hi all!

11:13 am

Hello nrkii.

11:13 am

hello, nrkii

11:13 am

good morning/noon nrk!

11:14 am

stid, glad to hear you're feeling a little better

Bye stid.

11:46 am

*poof*

11:46 am

I want to know why 10-sp5 isn't allowed... I've always used it as a 1 word adjective to describe a bicycle

11:47 am

enable obviously hasnt!

11:47 am

And remember that old TV show... 10sp5 and Brownshoe? One word.

11:48 am

Ben Vereen and Jeff Goldblum... good stuff

11:48 am

it's probably hyphenated

11:48 am

oh, I'm sure they think they have a good excuse, but I was very disappointed

11:48 am

as lickety has pointed out, the ENABLE program Dr God uses does not have the latest updates that lickety uses for his clues

11:50 am

sigh... now I'm all nostalgic for a 1980 tv show that only lasted 1/2 season

11:51 am

Who starred in that show, nrkii?

11:52 am

Ben Vereen was 10sp5 and Jeff Goldblum was Brown Shoe... detective comedy

11:52 am

Oh! I sort of remember that. An odd pairing.

11:53 am

I miss Highway Patrol, The Adventures of Tugboat Annie and Streets of San Francisco

11:54 am

I think that passed us by ov4 he4

11:54 am

brought to us by the same guy who created The Greatest American Hero

11:54 am

No, I've certainly not heard of it, Ata.

11:54 am

oooh oooh, and Car 54 Where Are You?

11:55 am

Consider yourselves spared, Ata. It was very bad, as evidenced by its quick death.

11:55 am

I remember Car 54 but vaguely.

11:55 am

The streets of Hollywood are littered with failed sit-coms.

11:55 am

Car 54: Where Herman Munster got his big debut.

11:56 am

My Mother the Car

11:56 am

Adam 12!

11:56 am

I thought 10sp5 and Brown Shoe was pretty good for its time, but it was a mid-season replacement shoe, so was kind of doomed from the start

11:57 am

there are also a good number of REALLY good shows that never catch on and get canceled too soon

11:57 am

Time to head off here. Bye for now and happy nostalgia.

11:57 am

True, nrkii.

11:57 am

Peter Gunn

11:57 am

my friend just sent me the first season of Pushing Daisies on DVD, and it's so very good, but sadly, only lasted 2 seasons

bye Haz!

11:57 am

be well, Haz

11:57 am

bye dear!

11:58 am

evening all... hoping the site will stay up long enough this time to finish the grid...

12:17 pm

evening Sprite

12:18 pm

hey lyn, nice to see you again today :)

12:19 pm

ditto! wonder how long the site was down

12:19 pm

sppppprrrriiiiitttte! angst. bad news. DEATH GLARES at post office people. I went to get parcel on thursday. they didn't have it. they said the delivery people had it. so I phoned up delivery people. they didn't have it. I phoned up again today. they have returned it to you because I wasn't in when they tried to deliver it. GAH! wtf? they usually try THREE TIMES! could you please resend, and I'll refund you the extra postage costs, obviously!

12:19 pm

quite a while for sure, I have kept on trying for a long time before giving up

12:20 pm

wow, now that is something :(

12:20 pm

is there an ne7?

12:20 pm

wow and I've had no difficulties either day logging on

12:20 pm

I know .... I handed the phone to husband and he yelled at them for me

12:21 pm

no

12:21 pm

ty

12:21 pm

could be quite expensive, Ata. Not sure but think they will charge for sending it back to me.

12:21 pm

help for T on left side??

12:22 pm

That's a bit silly. If they can't deliver a parcel here (one try) they leave a card and you have to go to the nearest Post Office to pick it up

12:22 pm

nice heart, phaeton

12:22 pm

whatever they charge you, I'll pay it

12:23 pm

they are meant to try 3 times here, then wait 3 weeks before sending it back to the poster. Ha. VERY unamused

12:23 pm

te6.21 is the madagascan hedehog

12:23 pm

we'll see. I really hope it does come back, it has the GW game in it.

12:23 pm

12:25 pm

*keeps fingers crossed*

12:26 pm

and tell me what they charge you / repostage and I'll get the money to you straight away

12:27 pm

will do

12:27 pm

and yay, fireworks. After 2 downtimes for the site, not so bad a result at last.

12:27 pm

12:38 pm

I need to check news BR but they have been able to contain all fires I believe. Thankyou for your ongoing concern

12:39 pm

good to hear

12:50 pm

12 fires still burning, 4 major areas of concern. 7000 made homeless - 2000 homes lost. Death toll has not risen - est at 300. And the Yanks are coming! 70 US firefighetrs arriving today Thankyou!

12:51 pm

12:57 pm

12:59 pm

12:59 pm

8 de

only 1 dr, phae and 9 de

1:00 pm

de4's and 5's...no 6's?

1:00 pm

mmm Class action lawsuit started because of fallen power line believed to have started the Kinglake fire (stilll going after 7 days). Expected to be for multi millions and go on for years

no 6's

1:01 pm

ty Ata and fuquay

1:01 pm

urf. how many people involved? that's a nightmare lawsuit

1:02 pm

I have 8 de's and 1 dr...but missing 4 D's! ?

Ok I'm back, what an odd day.

1:02 pm

not sure - but I think you are spot on there

sounds like you need to refresh, phae

1:02 pm

hi Red!

1:03 pm

i just did cuz lost connection...i'll try again

1:03 pm

hi red! h teulu!

1:03 pm

that is a ridiculous lawsuit

1:03 pm

why is that kje?

1:04 pm

going to make the lawyers very rich

1:04 pm

well, that was totally unnecessary! Can't tell the diff between a D and an R!

A fallen powerline sounds rather like an accident, not intentional.

1:05 pm

depends if it fell through misrepair etc

I need anew icon...

1:05 pm

unless there is obvious gross negligence... like the power company knew it was weak and let it stand... too many variables... wind, varmints, birds, insects... etc...

1:05 pm

nerd

1:05 pm

nerder

1:05 pm

oooops

1:05 pm

shoot - sorry

1:06 pm

2 de5's?

1:07 pm

just sat down for a breather in cleaning while the boys sleep, can't stay long

1:07 pm

well... was going for nerdier... but never found the i!

1:07 pm

Power lines are historically an issue with bushfires here and as such they should/must be maintained - I think because of that history the people/s actions could be justified

1:07 pm

3

3 de5, phae

1:07 pm

ty BR

that makes some sense then Lynnx, if not maintained then yes, could be a legal issue.

looking at the puppy web cam!

1:08 pm

it'll be "fun" to prove though, unless the company just holds its hands up to negligence

1:09 pm

allo mates!

1:09 pm

thanks BR!

1:35 pm

red, people have to look before they will buy.

Oh yes. It has showed a little over 5 times, but so far, no buyers. So we'll see..I just get nervous because I am not there.

1:37 pm

hi, everyone, happy valentine's day!

1:37 pm

They generally recommend you not be there when the house is shown.

1:38 pm

red, good luck with the open house - I'm sure everything will be fine

two left, te 5 and 6

Oh yes, but I mean i'm so far away that I have no idea whats going on , the house has been painted and I have no idea what it really looks like now!

1:38 pm

back in 2000, I started looking for my condo, then it was a 1-bdrm...when I didn't like what I saw I stopped, and took it up again with my realtor in spring 2001...patient she was...she thinks we looked at some 80 properties before I settled...

that is one patient realtor!!!!!

1:39 pm

PAV we did the same - looked at 72 houses (!) before I chose this one - which we still love

Well, maybe someone will fall in love with it tomrorro.,

Wow JBV!

1:40 pm

realtor was patient, my husband not so much - he kept going for the very high end houses, I kept getting nervous about the payments, so it was tense there for a while

1:41 pm

we were shopping for a neighborhood, too, my son was only in 2nd grade

that is very important, and it sounds like you had some time to take time.

1:42 pm

I looked at every house listed in the multi-listing in my price range and then started on the for sale by owner before I found this one.

1:42 pm

we were renting at the time, so no pressure to sell,

1:43 pm

Spring is the best time to sell a house, especially once the flowers bloom.

1:43 pm

red, is your plan to sell this house and buy in florida?

1:43 pm

the condo I really wanted (within my range) had ownership issues - the realtor/renter thought she was buying on a lease to own deal, and the realtor owner thought otherwise...as much as I would have liked being there, I wanted no part of a legal tangle...

Not sure about buying, I actually want to rent for a while...unless I make enough for a down payment...

1:44 pm

we bought ours in the summer, I remember stepping into the house on a scorching hot day and LOVING the central air conditioning - that was definitely a selling point!

JBV! I can tell you are up north, its a rare home in the south that doesnt have Central Air.

1:45 pm

no, it's just that the apartment we were living in did not have that red, so we were impressed

1:46 pm

mine didn't have ac when I bought it. I didn't get central air until I got married.

1:46 pm

mine didn't have ac when I bought it. I didn't get central air until I got married.

1:46 pm

mine didn't have ac when I bought it. I didn't get central air until I got married.

Wow Mixi, that makes for some hot summers.

1:46 pm

anyone with kids will appreciate this - the MAIN reason we chose this house over many others was the huge maple tree in the backyard so my son could have his dream treehouse (which is still there, home to squirrels and birds)

thats great JBV. I recently drove by my childhood home and was crushed to see most of the trees have been removed by the present owners.

1:47 pm

28 left for moi!

55 here, this grid is not really fun. I hope tomorros is 400.

1:48 pm

that's a shame, red

1:48 pm

hey, I just realized I'm in the grid!pe5

PAV, I love that picture in your icon - that firefighter really had a heart, the video is so touching

1:52 pm

there's a follow-up shot posted a couple of days ago that show Sam with her new beau, Bob. I am so pleased with that outcome...

fireworks! had to go to the list for the last 2

2:49 pm

i've parked there on a friday evening within about 3 blocks, krista

2:50 pm

so down D Street and 6th should be good, based on my past experience

2:50 pm

Yes, all local hospitals were on alert but then it was determined that the only survivors were the woman and daughter that miraculously crawled out of the house. The husband/father perished.

2:50 pm

Oh Scrabbler :(

2:50 pm

oh, glad to hear that someone survived

2:50 pm

sometimes i dont like city driving, but sometimes I just want to get there and dont mind..ok, good to know

2:51 pm

2:51 pm

i've seen nothing on tv or radio or read newspaper since it happened scrabbs.. must have been horrific

2:51 pm

Krista, I don't like city driving either.

2:53 pm

Hi DC!

2:53 pm

lovely photo, pav

2:53 pm

that's because you got used to it..underovers, circles..very confoosing

2:53 pm

Yes, one theory is that the pilot decided to minimize loss by hitting one house instead of a whole row of homes. We are likely never to know.

2:53 pm

I have never been to DC--maybe someday.

2:53 pm

may that the 'black box' tells us a bit of that, scrabbs

3:46 pm

I'm leaving for the time being with 6 nasty words left. Why is it always the hardest words are last? Like finding objects in the last place you look. Sounds like connections to the grid are difficult today for some areas? or computers? All Happy Valentine's day. Behave yourselves. Whatever that means.

3:46 pm

Go TO !!

3:46 pm

Hey Stidgmere, nice to see you again !

3:47 pm

Aussieme glad to see you too. I have been wearing out my dictionary the last few days. I hate to give up and ask for clues if I am just too lazy to try to find the words or monkey them. Sometimes the 4 letter words are soooo hard.

I backed off at the end of the last game because it said you had 0 points in the round. I thought you ditched your turn or something ..

4:39 pm

Oh, I didn't notice. have not played today. that 0 can be misleading

4:39 pm

hi josh

it's just big hyped up retail extravaganza that makes those of us who aren't in a relationship feel bad

4:39 pm

I must have played at the same time you were playing or something ..

4:39 pm

do you ever have trouble with the Scramble site? tor, I have and it drives me nuts. Once it happened in a game with Ata, of all people

4:40 pm

very true magmom

4:40 pm

mr. hate stopped by earlier, and I *did* wish him a happy v day, and he look at me like I had two heads, and mumbled it back. Why do I bother?

4:40 pm

Just that time so far ..

and of course, no matter how hard I try not to, I feel bad --blech!

4:40 pm

Ata always trounces me in Scramble. and I BDG is just as good or better so I never play a game with her :-)

4:59 pm

*to you all

4:59 pm

same to you Annie, but I warn you.. buncha bah humbuggers here.. (-:

herin, those fires sound even worse than some of the awful fires they've had in Calif & SW here in the last several years. I have never been able to come up with words that describe my attitude about arson :(

and to you, annie :)

ALoy:http://tinyurl.com/cjnrqy this is photos from the air of marysville.

despicable doesn't even *begin* to describe such persons

5:00 pm

ty herin..

5:00 pm

Is humbugger the same as a dorfet?

5:00 pm

who's a dorfet?

Tyger I don't think I could be allowed to print my words on arsonists. Kingslake area they believe was deliberately lit.And its stinky down here too

5:01 pm

@ Anniebrook - actually, it's a typo courtesy of K21 just a little while ago in the chat, definitely an LOL word!

5:01 pm

{{herin}} glad you haven't lost internet access!

5:01 pm

JB, It is a very apt description for what I dont know but it will come in handy

5:02 pm

Arsonists are murderers in this case

5:02 pm

herin, those photos are shocking! so sad....

5:02 pm

Glad to see so many friends aboard. I've got my unabridged dictionary and I am ready to do battle.

HI JB. No i paid the bill

5:02 pm

how many people do they actually have in custody?

5:03 pm

There are arson attacks in a nearby town called Coatesville, people are really scared, and they can't catch who's been doing it, for about 6 months now. Several families have been burned out of their homes.

arsonists very often are, annie. that's what makes it so much more awful, IMO

JB- I saw teh news story about Coatesville- scary stuff

Not sure Trifs I think one but he got transferred to the city due to death threats.

5:04 pm

lol, herin, you KNOW I meant that the fires didn't kill the power, but you made me laugh!

Hi Stidgmere.

5:04 pm

hello stidgmere

hi stidg

Wow Jb about Coatsville. Jb I am still drinking my coffee

hey, stidgmere

well, peeps, if I'm to have a prayer of finishing this grid, I'd better get back to work on it. nice "seeing" y'all. I've missed youse guys, and hope to be able to spend more time in here in the near future. meantime, I'll be "seldom" ;) :(

5:05 pm

Sad times right now in Philadelphia, another (young) policeman shot dead last night, right next to my bus stop near work. So senseless, so tragic.

5:06 pm

And so, I come to Babble, and play with words - good to see you all!

5:06 pm

JB, That is awful news about the policeman

5:06 pm

herin, my heart aches for the people of Marysville and all those who lost so much in the fires..

that is so sad about the policeman

Loves Tyger.

Wow Jb :(

5:07 pm

It

5:07 pm

ce 5 the third one, please. need a clue.

5:07 pm

(oops, sorry for typo) It's a cruel sad world sometimes

5:08 pm

a family friend who was a policeman was killed many years ago in the line of duty

ALoy they didn't have a chance. They all did the right thing and evacuated to the oval (field for playing on) and then a Policeman said GO just go leave. He saved about 200 of them

5:09 pm

wow, herin...terrible

5:09 pm

Does anyone have the pe 6, 30 word. I am afraid I am not able to find it.

5:09 pm

dont have it stidgmere

5:09 pm

try the past tense of the pe4.7 before it, stidg

5:09 pm

the ce 5, 12 is a word that means the same as churl but spelled as a variant.

5:10 pm

BINGO. I didn't know that word had a past tense.

Annie not a chance. It breaks my heart that this was a town I played in as a kid. One of our roll playing members lost his Grandpa (or grandma) and uncle and very nearly died himself as fire swept over the firetruck

5:11 pm

lol, me either!

5:11 pm

stid, dont get it. what is churl mean? anyway would love another clue.

5:11 pm

herin, these stories are heartbreaking

take singer ch** and add the cross letter

wait that's a differnt one

5:12 pm

magazinemom, what is the a clue for? the ce? if so i am confused.

5:13 pm

hi all.

5:13 pm

ce + France's airport, leave off last letter

sorry mkg, that was the clue for the ch5/14

5:13 pm

A churl is a lower class person in feudal times. But how about ce and ad the choice word "this -- that." Finish it off with the longfellow. Is that the ce 5 12 you need?

5:13 pm

Hi, mkg!

Annie if you look at my icon at Melbourne Maniacs you can see all the wonderful stuff people have done

5:14 pm

must go.. see you all next grid. This month is flying by. Happy Babbling!

5:14 pm

WOW stidgmere, thanks - I never would have found that!

ce5= ce+ evangelist **a* roberts

5:14 pm

herin, going to look. Bye, Aloy

Bye Alloy Thanks for that history lesson Stidg

5:15 pm

It is a particularly obscure word in a grid specializing in the weird.

5:15 pm

this is amazing. dont know the evangelist. must think hard.

5:15 pm

tony roberts? hmmm

5:16 pm

how about ce + ***ando, Florida where Disney is?

it's a university in tulsa, OK....also means something to do with the mouth **a* care

5:16 pm

Oh gosh, embarassing. it is a greyhound. It appears horsey, but not! I thought it looked a bit thin for a horse.

5:43 pm

we call ours the "house pony" so it's not far off :)

5:43 pm

she does look horsey in that pic!

Hi Grigs, we seem to have lots of babblers with Greyhounds... Lynnx, jjks, and grigs, and who else??

5:44 pm

Hi, grigs

5:44 pm

hi, all...

5:44 pm

tr 7, 52 I need also.

5:45 pm

well, I wanted a grey, but the rest of my family vetoed it. I don't guess that counts does it?

5:45 pm

tr+ an ***** you can't refuse

5:45 pm

me 3 (needing the TR 7)

tr and make me your best *****

5:45 pm

ch 6/27, the first, please?

phand, how is things going with your adorable poochy?

5:45 pm

I have a grey t-shirt

GIving Babble Rabble a wry smile.

5:46 pm

Oh thank you--not even a word I have ever seen?

5:46 pm

Hi, BabbleRabble!

5:46 pm

Red, they are going great! Thanks for asking. We just can't get the pee smell out of the carpet

What have you tried?

5:46 pm

have you tried "nature's miracle" yet?

5:46 pm

they? He is doing great

5:46 pm

The sound little chicks make is the first ch 5.

5:47 pm

BR is your icon a snake's eye?

5:47 pm

no, I have not. do you know where I can find it?

5:47 pm

we foster rescues, and they, um, have accidents. and "on purposes" too.

Babble Rabble ...I went to a great blue heron nesting site today, saw over 6 active nests, I got some photos....

5:47 pm

that + arm & hammer pet fresh seem to work pretty well on our carpet.

5:47 pm

I have tried vinegar and bissel pet smell/stain cleaner

5:47 pm

diluted white vinegar works well too

5:47 pm

I get it at PetSmart, you can probably find it at petco.

5:47 pm

ch 6, 27 is a type of cheese that is mispelled by leaving out the double consonant in the middle It means a herder.

5:47 pm

I was planning on putting baking soda on the carpet, but hadn't gotten around to it yet

5:47 pm

sounds like a wonderful adventure, redT

5:47 pm

our dog likes the vinegar, jjks, so she licks the carpet when we use it. EXTRA disgusting.

5:47 pm

Thanks, stidgmere, but there is a ch6/27 before that...

5:48 pm

Thanks, stidgmere!

5:48 pm

ch+ take me to your l*a***

It was pretty cool...all excepting the odd boating guy who kept asking if I didnt want to get out on his boat for a closer look.

grigs, that is truely not nice.

5:48 pm

Jellen yw

I wanted to get on the boat, but I thought better of it.

5:49 pm

Thanks, grigs

5:49 pm

that's kinda odd that your dog likes vinegar

5:49 pm

one of the fosters used to like the hot pepper oil no-chew stuff.

5:50 pm

well, there is no accounting for taste!

5:50 pm

cr 7/36, please?

5:50 pm

same with my lil one - she likes the taste of the bitter spray

5:50 pm

our dog is a little neurotic. but in the mellowest possible way. I blame it on being an only dog. The cats terrorize her a little.

Teulu likes to eat carpet,but he has recently given it up. thank goodness.

5:51 pm

LB eats everything.. carpet, clothing, dirt...

5:51 pm

Kita doesn't chew, but she licks things, and she's the terror of any paper bag we leave around.

5:52 pm

I need the he between where you are and the bird...

8:04 pm

Hi all

8:05 pm

hi Jili...hi all

8:05 pm

I was just watching and listening to the pups. TY Dan!

8:05 pm

Hi k21

8:05 pm

HI jill

I have been watching the puppies a bit compulsively.

8:06 pm

Me too, as if they will suddenly start walking like a dog and I will miss it.

8:07 pm

last sp6 please?

8:08 pm

NM, I found it, well, my monkey did

8:09 pm

No eyes open yet?

8:10 pm

nope. not sustained anyway - you can see the slits sometimes

8:10 pm

How many times do they feed daily? And where is Cheetah?

8:10 pm

they are sure vocal though! :-)

8:11 pm

i love all the little stretches they just did!

8:11 pm

Their noises are funny--squeaks, etc

8:11 pm

Hi feather

8:11 pm

TR7, please?

8:11 pm

Cheetah is probably just in the bedroom out of camera. She feeds them every 2-3 hours for 10-15 mins

8:11 pm

And they flop all ov** each other

8:11 pm

tr + an ***** you can't refuse

8:12 pm

they're getting positively roly poly!

8:12 pm

TY, dan.

8:12 pm

Does Cheetah check on them a lot?

8:12 pm

she does a lot of "nose count" checks

8:13 pm

but all that nursing is very tiring for her, as you can guess

8:13 pm

re6-7 please?

8:13 pm

Is she eating and drinking a lot?

8:13 pm

did you guys find something to ease her soreness from the nursing?

it looks exhausting, she must be really hungry all the time!

8:14 pm

yes drinking a ton, eating 4x a day. We got a recommendation to use cabbage leaves!

8:14 pm

Human women use that too

8:14 pm

2 pairs of re6/7 - like a catch in football, and cast a ballot again

8:14 pm

be careful with that! i do know that in humans, that can dry up milk if used too much

8:14 pm

usually they're used to relieve engorgement

8:15 pm

It was the second that I needed, Dan. TY

8:15 pm

dan2, does Melanie have a bad cold?

8:15 pm

just a persistent cough

8:16 pm

she must be tired too

8:16 pm

yeah it's messed with our sleep - I guess practice for being parents some day :)

8:16 pm

you bet!

Ok dan, I think I speak for a few, please dont have 8 kids at once though!!!

8:17 pm

Yes, Dan!

8:17 pm

ani idea who the daddy dog is?

8:17 pm

AVERT red!

8:17 pm

we don't - the shelter she was rescued from didn't even know she was pregnant

8:19 pm

so I gathered. A doggy friend I showed your site to today suggested that there may have been 2 breedings, with Mouse and other little deceased one being from the second one.

8:19 pm

Will you keep her or any of the pups?

dan2, this happened to me when I adopted my first dog. She ate and ate and ate the first week, I told the vet I thought she was pregnant, but they spayed her and took puppies which made me annoyed but they gave me no choice.

8:19 pm

ugh red how terrible

8:20 pm

the mom already has an adoptive owner, she just didn't have room to whelp puppies.

8:20 pm

Aw, red, that is so sad and wrong.

8:20 pm

Scrabs, there's a big explanation on the site if you scroll down

yes I was distressed, she was the best dog I have ever had.

I have to admit, i have no idea how I as a college student would have handled the 10 puppies.

in a 1 bedroom apt.

8:20 pm

So far we are not planning to keep a puppy. We have a dog of our own, and she's used to being an only dog. Also we're committed to keeping on with the foster thing, and that's easier with only one 'resident' dog

8:21 pm

but they can be darn irresistible

8:21 pm

it's a great thing you're doing, dan2

8:21 pm

My sister took on twin foster bunnies last fall and then decided to keep them when she fell in love quickly.

8:22 pm

2 of my 3 dogs were fosters :-)

8:22 pm

jillli, LOVE your icon!

8:22 pm

T'was funny at the musical I went to on Friday night. When the man playing about a million men was on stage in a gimp mask, studded collar and lead and a leather thong, he suddenly said, from beneath the mask, 'Someone just took a photo! If that ends up on YOutube, I'll stalk you forever to kill you!'

9:56 pm

I'll open MSN up now, Herin. Hang on...

Cool See if it works

10:01 pm

Can't download it, Herin in the form you're offfering.

10:02 pm

Um .. You're playing a game ..

10:02 pm

torg - we're playing Babble, LOL and then th e intrnet game.

10:02 pm

some times the obvious is so obscure

Opps sorry Jac.

Torg I think she thought I was stuffing about. But im here. Maybe I wasn't logged in to msn

10:04 pm

Hi Bab - I get accused of being awake all of the time, but I think you are awake moere often than I am. But it does p** me off when people question my waking hours/

10:04 pm

I knew that ..

Jac thats because we all know you are never need sleep. you are on a higher plain than us mortals and never need to sleep

10:06 pm

My waking hours are what they are and when they are. I've worked all my life and have earned the 'right', I think.

10:06 pm

Well since no one's asking for clues,I'm off to bed now

10:06 pm

Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow

Jac did yhou get that link?

10:07 pm

Night Min ..

night min

10:07 pm

My Mum learned that about 5 years ago when she decided to key her way into my house and then wake me up.

Did you get those instructs Jac? I don't mean to be pushy but I need to go and do study

10:09 pm

nite minver

10:09 pm

When she realised what she'd unleashed she talked about e in childish terms, and then learned more about the Freebird. She hadn't learned her lesson from the last time she tried to thump me, when I was 13 and held her wrists and told her never to attempt hitting me again.

10:10 pm

No, Herin, I didn't. Give them here, please.

Ill facebook message you it will be easier

10:12 pm

Okay, Herin.

I have to go

10:13 pm

6 months before that, when I was 12, she'd come at me with a big kitchen knife. I ran off the my friend over the road's then and did not agree to come home until my Dad came home from work. But she was menopausal, so maybe I forgive her now.

10:14 pm

How rude ..

10:14 pm

'S'okay, Herin. I'm not having an earthquake moment here, you can go.

10:15 pm

Menopause can be a drag ..

10:16 pm

I've recently experienced menopause rage ..

10:16 pm

A drag? Torg? It's a bloody nighmare, which is why I forgivve my Mum now.

10:17 pm

st 5/10 second one? I feel so blind tonight!

10:17 pm

Torg - she didb't take the steak hammer to your orbs, did she?

10:17 pm

If she did, what did you do?

10:17 pm

No .. fortunately we were miles away ..

10:18 pm

jjks, it's what the docs use to open an artery in your heart

10:18 pm

I just lost a friend is all ..

10:18 pm

got it - ty!

10:19 pm

hjjk - = thing with a nasty sharp needle on the end and a plastic bit on the other that gets shoved into the back of your hand, for instance, in hospital.

10:19 pm

oh torg, i hope not.

10:20 pm

i identify very much w/what you are writing about - my mom and also what I'm dealing with

10:20 pm

the st5/10 is the quick and easy way of administering drugs to your body.

10:21 pm

Yeah .. That flight crashed and burned before getting half way down the runway ..

10:22 pm

Torg - you 'just lost a friend'? My daughter's b/f lost his best friend about 8 months ago and he's nnot coping well with the loss.

10:23 pm

I didn't lose in that sense ..

10:23 pm

Nobody died ..

10:23 pm

A relationship died ..

10:25 pm

I'm not clear sometimes ..

10:25 pm

I'd like to connect with daughter's b/f about his lossm but he avoids me like the plague, mayve because I am his girlfriend's Mum, who looked just like her in my youth. And his Mum is off on a 'Life AIn't Fair' trip of her own, as I once was.

10:25 pm

I'm sorry

10:28 pm

Torg - no need to apologise.

10:28 pm

It's sh*t when it all goes wrong, Torg. I know that.

10:30 pm

You're a dear Jac ..

10:31 pm

xxx Torg.

10:34 pm
