practice piano
40 to go ruru? Thought you'd finished
I was talking about pav... being halfway
ru, that one could wake the household!
oh, I see
practice drumming?
that could wake the neighbourhood
we have three (really lousy) would be drummers in our neighborhood..
I have one living here, our son - but he's not terribly bad at it, thank ggodness.
how lovely!! - had a young cousin living with us for about a year - a would be drummer!
I feel like knocking on their door and telling the that they really suck and that it is torture for all of us to listen to their terrible drumming.
oops, that should have been either God or goodness! lol
really ingratiate myself to them in that way..lol
ah found the 8
engratiate?
We have no nearby neighbors, it's a blessing in many ways.
I wish...

coffee and paper sound good, actually
thanks professor

hello again. Here to see flosey's grand finale!!
If I could have a clue for in8 I'll make it west
think new and creative in a hotel
want a hint, flosey?
great clue west, thanks
gosh, aaronsmom, just saw what you said, yes, we are pretty near each other, huh?
Fireworks!
and...???
congrats, flosey
Yay!! Flosey!!
YAY flosey!!!
woot, flosey!!!!
good to finish tonight, have a 10: am meeting tomorrow
get a good rest then flosey
when will your son be here?
need it west, have a very bad habit of falling asleep in meetings
and I have library and must practice the new computer system (quite baffling)
he's coming March 18th west
ah yes, anything new in computers baffles me
that's not so far away !
newer is usually more user friendly
well that break knocked me out completely...took a break and read an update on USA Today...AMEX gave $1million bonuses to top execs...part of their bailout monies...
no, he had wanted to surprise me! so glad I get to anticipate his visit
down from what Pav? 5 mil?
I can't understand that mentality, pav!
the directors for these companies ought to be sued for breach of trust
about that...their 2007 earnings dropped from $800+ million down to 200+ million in 2008...it's the compensatioin boards of these companies that do this thing and then sit back and let the execs take the hassle for accepting them...
west, this system is not user friendly at all -- much more complicated that the one we have now
why the change then jilli?
the old system is no longer being supported, west
the directors do not run the business but they have oversight and apparently these bonuses are okay with the directors or heads should be rolling
I see jilli one step at a time
the shareholders should be going after them
what happened to that 500,000 ceiling? Or is that just salaries and bonuses have no limit?
great icon and story West
11 to go!
thanks flosey lol
gogogo pav!
cut dividends, layoff workers and give out huge bonuses -- that simply is wrong
hear hear, babrab
you said it bab
we are having a controversy here in Aus about directors bonuses as well, it seems incongruous with the financial situation!! immoral even
their shares dropped from +$40 in Jan 2008 (?) to just over $12 by Dec...
immoral indeed!
I have a beef with athletes making so much as well
at least most of the athletes do a good job
the athletes earnings are a product of the public's obsession with sport
Ramirez taking only $45 mil because 'times are tough' lol
true sandy
it's all absurd
an old friend was once a VP for AMEX and moved back to his prior position with a subsidiary of AIG - they've since renamed their business to distance themselves from AIG, he dropped from a SVP to just a VP now, but I'm certain he's making big $ still...and I took the low road and became a civil servant...ok dokey!
these directors are immoral because their bonuses could keep people in their jobs and paying their morguages etc
the whole system needs some reality orientation
I have no idea what I'd do with a million dollars
I guess it's all part of a capitalist society - for every silver lining there is a cloud
sandy, I enjoyed your icon tale -- did you read mine?
kick the workers in the teeth with lay offs and with no job a loss of their homes .. reward the bigshots who got the economy in the mess it is in? WHY
and gov't workers are also not immune...asI've said before, for what I do I am severly underpaid, and others who may the same or higher still get paid more for doing very little, it is very much who and not what you know that gets you ahead...
yours is quite a fascinating tale jilli
the reason I aked sandy is the common thread of Perth
jilli and sandy just read both very good
Jilli, I am very familar with your tale, and indeed it is a very interesting one. One of his grandchildren had a child in my child's class at primary school so we are very familar with the family
and my Girl Scout patrol was called The Morning Stars
I was wondering if Ross V is still alive
ty west, I could have gone on and on but i resisted. my family is a very old west australian family with a lot of history
I have the feeling that he has passed away Jilli
now I'm humming Botany Bay
and I also enjoyed reading both your stories...does it help that I have only delusions of grandeur?
so I should change the text a bit, I guess
lol west. The hotel in the icon is meant to be haunted and there are a lot of tales to that effect
Jilli, I dont know for sure!
very funny Pav!
its nearly wine o'clock and I have no wine!!
sandy, I'm closer to the other branch of the Clunies Ross tree, which doesn't hyphenate the names.
The girl I knew had it hyphenated
The clunies ross story is a fascinating one
Ian CR and his kids don't hyphenate. Interesting.
stuck at 11. will go to list for help...
Well, I should say the late Sir Ian, and his "kids" are my age!
oh there is a list?
yes, west :)
great!
goody I have 33 left and definitely need the list-I am pathetic
25 here tired of trying to think of odd words
OK, I must go to bed -- happy babbling all and goodnight!
sandy, I can't function without the list
nite jilli
night jilli, I'm off too, back for flip tomorrow
me neither jilli
and will have a change of icon tomorrow jilli !!
toodles, all *poof*
morning all
good morning sprite
bye flosey and jilli sleep well both of you
ah just missed jilli... what a wonderful story!
and yours too,sandy :)
3 to go
oh west, brilliant :D :D
what???? Only 80 words and 12 of them are Ks? This is criminal.
true sprite working on them now
ka va
I am sorry! Stupid space
had that one lol
lol am double sorry then!
hello, sprite
k's kleaned up
hi BabbleRabble, glad to see you. How's today treating you?
ok, done! new words for me today...
sure west, rub it in, why don't you.
grats PAV!
yay pav!!
ok time for beddie bye! sorry to play and run but ti's late here...
ten inches of snow, 30 to 40 mph winds and - 30 wind chill --- other than those distractions the day has been balmy
you're forgiven, PAV. Sleep well and cuddle your poopies from me.
gn pav sleep well
congrats, PAV
yeah right, BabbleRabble, lol. Quite balmy. Good your inner sun is shining then.
I can walk up snow drifts to second floor balconies
sounds like an adventure. One I would rather not have.
Hello everyone. NOT hammock weather at all
hello, lyn
hi lyn you're right
hi lyn :)
west, are there any K words oer 5 letters, please?
ka 6 and 7
ka 6 and 7 sprite
ok, those are my missing ones :) Thanks.
oh my there they are... they have been in other grids before. Thanks again, Ks done and dusted. Now for Babble.
do you always get rid of the k's first?
always. Well, when there is a K in the grid anyway.
sprite would have us believe she has trouble with k words
I'm not convinced either
k's just get under her skin I'm thinking
well I will admit to this: they aren't as terribly unfindable as they used to be. But I still have trouble with them, yes.
we all have our cross-eyed bears
Peter de Vries!
lol!
not sure I ever knew who to credit for that one
lo4 it :)
There was a sign on the lawn at a drug re-hab center that said 'Keep off the Grass'.
Gladly, the cross eyed bear
perfect
you'd think he would help a fellow dutchgirl, right lyn? But never.
lol BabbleRabble!
today I found my food processor
where did you hide it?
where was it?
hidden in a box under a huge bottle of vinegar..packed it up a year ago
so now I can make latkes
hand grating takes too long
glad you found it, west. You will put some latkes in the PB, right?
I will
but first I need potatoes
have you looked under the vinegar jar?
no lol
another good thing happened today we got a new water heater
never know where potatoes might sprout up
lol bab
having hot water is so nice
poor west, running out of excuses for not cooking!
cooking I like cleaning up I don't
the hobbits would agree, BabbleRabble
speaking of cooking, I must remember to start early today, I have meat that must cook for a long time.
okay 3 left all ta's
do you have a slow cooker sprite?
33 left, no Ks
lol
ta 5 -- japanese poem
ta 6 --- a leather process
ty bab
fireworks !!

no west, but as soon as it is ready to stove I put it on the smallest fire and that goes fine
congrats, sandy
hello babrab, sprite
wtg sandy!
Congrats Sandy!
yay sandy!!
im ashamed to say bab I had lickety's help
hey sandy, said hello earlier... love your icon story
no shame in using lickety. Or his list.
hey, no need to be ashamed
thankyou sprite
dont worry im over the shame! glad to finish it
finally...fireworks!!
wtg west!
Many disagree, but for me babble is not a competition.. each of us decide how we wil play
whoo hoo west
congrats, west
ty sandy and bab
Congrats West!
BabbleRabble, I couldn't agree more.
exactly sprite
ty sprite too
and lyn ty
I'm missing everyone I'm so excited
sprite, that hotel has a lot of stories attatched to it, I had to resist going on and on.
lol west, we can tell, you are dancing and glowing :)
That is an interesting story Sandy. Great to be able to see a building yr ancestor left behind
for one it is meant to be haunted
put on the pointer sisters, west
it is fascinating, sandy
I should
We have been there for a big family reunion which was held in the ballroom
And yr ancestor was pretty impressive woman too Sprite...such a strong woman
how exciting sandy
I love reading about family histories
darn I just found annihilate.
she was, lyn, and quite a character. It was great to just sit with her and talk with her, even as a teenager... that is saying enough :)
sprite I just read yours how was her name pronounced?
sprite, I have always loved talking to my old aunties about their youth, and to my granna when she was alive
in the US, freemasonry is often viewed as sort of a cult with many secrets and secret rituals .. what is the perception there, sprite?
of course we have the freemasons here as well
argh, that is difficult. The Rie part is Ree. But Greiner, those are sounds you don't have in english. A throathy G, and the EI is a sound between ay and igh.
with the same sort of mystique bab
I meant Rie we have a Japanese friend with that name pronouced Ree-Ay
sorry i have to go , bye til tomorrow everyone have fun
same here, BabbleRabble. But it is also viewed as an organisation of people who help eachother, and one that not only keeps but also guards secrets that might otherwise go forgotten.
back to the TOE sandy?
bye sandy!
bye Sandy
I have been unable to find any impededmasons
I have some laundry to switch will be back shortly hope you're still here
I used to have a friend who was seriously into Freemasonry. He shared a lot with me of the symbolism and that was kind of fun, but it was way too rigid to my taste. We fell out because of his perpetual answer to all attempts to talk something out: "Thank you for sharing this with me."
I will, west, I still need 28 more words
hmmm you have to wonder about a grid that has 80 works..12 og which are k's...
rolin, you are too right!
My father in law was a Freemason all his life and very proud of it. My husband felt obliged to join when he was about 30 but opted out after about a year. They were a very strong organisation in Melbourne but I notice over the last 50 years their influence fading to almost extinction
or maybe just worry about my typing..lol
hi Rolin
hey sprite...and the sad bit is the first 6 words i got were ks..
hey lynxxx
lol my first 12 were Ks :)
yes, that seems to be the case in many parts of the world, lyn.
You know, sprite, it sort of fits with the questioning we talked of a couple nights ago. I think a person stops growing when incapable of being at least somewhat dispassionate
hey all
my dad was a mason in london and melobourne..i still have his leather bag and all its contents
hi bfsog
how is babbleland?
So do we Rolin!
back again hi rolin and bf
Babbleland is small - again.
what does one do with such a thing??
hey west
hey west!
I agree, BabbleRabble. But there is a difference between being able to be a little dispassionate or keeping all feelings and confrontations away by some trick.
a real mason, Rolin, or a Freemason?
hi bfsog, it is... K-ish today.
yes, sprite, absolutely
I don't know Rolin, you can't throw it out. I guess it eventually goes to your kids and they throw it out
lol..
i have not delved into the grid yet but here i go
a freemason sprite...i have never heard of real masons.. is it some sort of disident break away group|??
no, the dissidents are the impededmasons
but having said that, learning to be less emotional is definitely one of my things-to-learn :)
A mason is someone who works in stone
*starting to flap here*
no totally free
*giggles* The real masons build with stone.
it might be hard to do masonry when impeded.
ooooooohhhh ok ok....im in one of my more literal moods..sorry..lol
you will fit right in, rolin, no problem there ;)
cause youll never break, never break, never break, never break This heart of stone
who sang that?
yeah... which looks like a great way to avoid pain but makes one so incredibly vulneral to it

G'd morning Babblers! Not another tiny grid. :(
g'day
hi Lorikins!
Hi Lori
Whoa, these look like odd letter combos.
Greyed the top row! Yah baby.
Morning. Such disappointment! My two days off tiny grids. My next days on will mostly be huge I imagine.
12k's lori!
Hi Red
Nuh uh ATa Hari! :p G'd morning red
hi red!
Red I think the same happens to me too. Small grid day off Large grid no time
well, I do have the weekend off this weekend, so maybe.
hn
Nice. How is wonder pup
oops
hn to you too Gail!
Too sleepy to type.
hi gail
***hands Gail an espresso***
Mmmmm, thanks. By the way, I have a new border collie. I shall have to put his picture here.
he's his usyal self kitties???
oooh gail, an adult or puppy?
Um INsane and Lucius is eating her food and i can't be bothered moving
yay for new dogs!
YAh Puppy
9 years old and perfectly trained. Not too much OCD.
I love border collies
He goes to work with me every day.
morning everyone:)
Hi crossy!
Oh wonderful Gail. Hi Mr Crossy
What is his name, Gail?
G'd morning cross
oh my dog gets to stay home. so i am often jealous...
His rescue name is Quid, but he was Laddie before and he loves that name best.
then Laddie he should stay!
laddie!
Good for you Gail. That's a wonderful thing to do.
If you check out the New England Border Collie website, his blog and a video of him is there. NEBCR.com, I think.
Oh gosh gail, a famous dog!!!
Red could you possibly get you dog trained as a visiting dog?
He is just so sweet, I can't believe how good he is.
Herin, I think Teulu does not actually have the personality needed for a visiting dog. He's very excitable, and he is actually extremely nervous.
He doesnt mind staying home.
90 km wind warnings for today and i believe it,looked out the window and its raining patio furniture;/
Crossy! Good Morning, why do you live in that place?
oh that is a good thing then
at least its 9c and not snowing red;)
lol cross
90? That's just a breeze here crossy...... :)
lol
Just insane people.
At least you get 'yer pick of new patio furniture. :)
It will be 80 degrees here with a slight tropical breeze. We could use some rain though.
OH Laddie is a wall eye puppy spirit dog noooooooor
My friends big dog is a visiting dog giant boof head

oodle are you working? last i heard you were looking?

I agree. Laddie is waiting at the door, however. Gotta go to work with him.
Hugs to Laddie

Oh sorry.

Yaaaay scrabbler, hagd.
Have a great day SCrabbler!
i tried facebook,but too many people from my past that id rather forget tried to contact me:/ so off the computer it goes
ASo you are not there now?
im still there but will be gone by tonight
ok
Facebook, the root of all evil.
too many weirdos in my past;)
I love seeing people from my past. I can be smug at them
G'mornin' all. One of you needs to confess. There is a certain unstated responsibility that comes into play in the land of Babblonions. One of you has gone well beyond and you know who you are. I will wait for an apology.
Ata being smug is generally not an issue for you.
LIke your cat isn't smug enough Ata :D
lolol Ata. G'd morning gramma
Silverclaw learned well
????? hi gramma?
????? Gramma?
Yes she has Ata
Who in their right mind would mention a silly little 3 minute word game called Scramble?
hi gramma
mm there goes another patio table....
I DID I DID
Was it a nice one cross? If so, anchor it....
yaa for oodle!..yaaaa!
Oh Gramma, a lot of us play scramble.
Now that I understand, the higher your score the more impossible it it to beat it!
OOh Gramma. I like Word Twist
Curses on all of you! I can't stop. There is no end. You try to best your own score and after hours and hours you finally do; then you try again.
heheh
good morning all, not liking this grid
help with 7 and 8 pls
but gramma that is as it should be dear lady
*snerks at gramma*
Well now gramma, thats sort of something that an be controlled, after a while you justget over it!
this is a wonderful grid
in8 to introduce something new
As I like to say, Facebook ready to assist all your stalking needs.
Ata, dear, you are no longer #1 on my Scramble list :(
Word Twist in my mind has an end. When you have successfully completed all the words, it's over. Take a break. But No not with Scramble.
there is no excape ... you will be assimulate, you will be assimulated, you will be assimulated
damn it now im hungry
lol gramma. Multiple addictions! G'd morning peri
blame Lexulous!
OK now I need to look at scramble
With a name starting with Lex of course its going to be evil
red, you say I'll get over it. Like I've gotten over Babble?
yes, gramma!!!
herin, Do not do it. It's very baaad
it will become such a part of your day...
:D
A hole has been found in the nudist camp wall. The police are looking into it.
not seeing the in8
hi BR hi peri
in + pbs show + consumed food
babble is not addictive ive quit many,many times
no gramma you won't get over it... you will be assimulated
I actually hesitated this morning, Scramble or Babble? I knew if I started w/Scramble I'd never get to Babble. Because there is NO end.
Did you know the most popular man at a nudist colony is the man that can carry a cup of coffee in each hand and many donuts
Hmmmmm gramma, at least babble is a tiny grid today.,
brrrrrr brb I always forget how cold I get standing around on beaches for hours!
must be dense, still no in8, not getting the pbs part
Bonjour Babble Family !
Pounce ausie
cross, if Babble isn't addictive than cigarettes aren't either or heroin for that matter.

I am at half way, and a bit annoyed but not too bad.

Ata, it's quite gripping stuff....... i'm not liking some parts of it, but hey, whats a girl to do !
Not sure Ata, we'll have to wait for Uni to haul her butt outta' bed. :)
yeah ... it's one of those books that make you shiver, rather than a book you really enjoy the story. or something
The Road? Havta' check that one out.
ages, then :P
Cormac McCarthy. It's not a nice story, but it's a great book
I have va 4 and va 5, a nudge for the 3rd please?

*sack even
awwwww. emma looks completely chilled and happy after her op. good to see!
Hausarbeit ist gegen meine Religion.
she's a lovely looking cat
She's a firecracker that one! Was running within hours of post op. So much for keeping her quiet as per instructions.
it's always impossible to keep cats quiet after an op
you just have to let them run!
Yep. They're not stupid. If they feel poorly, they'll lay low
clues for the 7 and the 8 plz
yep!
in8, ka7
G'd mornign MM! in 8 to create anew, or add a new idea
the only animal I've ever seen sad after being spayed was Hobbit. She really was quiet for about 2 days
ka 7 is a plural of a much loved ka 6 often seen here.
it's a medicine
Exactly Ata. Hobbit knew that running was a bad plan./ Odd considering Hobbit's er, uhm, energy level. lol
ty lori and ata
I know! she really was very "I want to rest please" for 2 days. then she woke up on the 3rd day and went back to normal boinging

Silverclaw on the other hand got let out of the carrying cage and went zooming through the house like she had a rocket up her backside

hi eva!
That's pretty much how Emma reacted, like Silverclaw. I suspect that's the only time Hobbit was ever still. :)
G'd morning Ehva!
how are we all this morning?
Life is good. :)
pretty much. Though I can wear her out, but it tends to involve at least 2 or 3 hours solid walking. After that - especially after chasing pheasants - she sleeps for about 5 hours. And I mean *sleeps*. A bomb could go off next to her and she might open an eye
good morning all

i wouldn't mind a ta6 clue
oh, i still have 38 words to hunt down... i guess feel free to clue the 7 and 8 :)
There's lots of Japanese brand names in the grid today: Nikon, Kirin. Hawaiian coffee too. Too bad they're all proper nouns, dammit.
TA6 sitting in the sun is ta****g
ugh - thank you
in8 to rethink an old idea, find a new way...
ka7 is the plural of ka6, a medicine
got the 8, but unsure about the 6-7...working on that one. thanks!
Off to (shh don't tell) Scramble.
:) enjoy
Monkeyed the ka6/7. Sounds like a asian monk.
*an"
in6?
in + mans name....when youre born with something, its in6
born in ya
name that proper noun! lindsey of the red hair and bad habits
lohan
ding ding ding!
so who has a lo4/ha4 relationship with this grid?
i got the word before i could see it
i can't seem to monkey to the left
there's an old saying... sometimes monkeys die
literally, i've got my left column
it's not a great saying, but it certainly is fitting in this situation
Ha4 it!
name that proper noun! singer paul / dog on the latter years of the gilmore girls
anka!
ding ding ding!
simon ese
(answers to name that proper noun! always appear in the grid)
bbl - client...
12 words left.....and 50% of them are s's
really? i also have 12 left but only 2 are s's
name that proper noun! (might be tough for you brits) first name of the hostess of the show Clean House, Ms. Smiley...
dearie, do i have you stumped??
tava?
ding ding ding!
:)
Obscure, Eva!
oh, or was the show Clean Sweep? now that i think about it, i may have listed the wrong show...hah
quite obscure...but with such a unique name, i always remember her!
clean sweep, i think.
they were basically the same show...
All I could think of was Neecy Nash.
Name that proper noun......the Norse God of mischief
Loki
ding! ding! ding!
Fireworks!!!!
congrats Judi
congrats, judi!

any hints on the single R word? My monkeys aren't earning their keep today
lather, ri4, repeat (leave off the final letter)
start with r + trash b***
is the ka6 a word i might have used, ever in my life?
Only if you're a lawyer in India.
thanks. I know I've tried that before! Silly monkeys mustn't be spelling correctly today!
Oh wait, sorry, that's the ca6. I don't know about the ka6.
I mean that's the va6. Sigh.
ah ka6 is a kind of porcelain
well i watched a move set in india once, does that count?
You would have used the ka6 if you made porcelain
okay (off to google)
I need to find or start a list of babblets. this grid seems to be full of them
ka + there's a Babbler named R----...
(trying to think of a better clue)
got it from wikipedia!
Cool. Saved me the effort of better cluing!
(off to google Indian legal terms.... babble is so educational!)\
crossy still here?
It's "a native lawyer" sez the def.
Actor Va* ***mer
if you guys see him... here is a recipe he would like - bacon wrapped ground bacon stuffed with pepper bacon..... http://buckymcoinkumsbbq.com/wordpress /2009/03/10/bacon-implosion/
or tiny url...
http://tinyurl.com/c79l7q
kje, I hear my arteries clogging shut just from your definition!
good morning....80 hard words? or 80 good ones?
how can lkil be a word
lots of babblets, As
not bad at all asg - I went down to 10 prior to listing, and then once listing, finished it fast
ok, I'm in...lol
I guess less than 45 minutes, asg... start timing : )
if that's true, kje; I need to go back to bed til I can think! :-D
Nef, KJE is very competitive - don't let her spook ya! <G>
sometimes some grids just pop for me... other grids that I am told are easy do not... depends on the brain on any given day
thanks, As. I'm usually okay unless there are lots of babblets. Today just seems a bit tough
kje, btw, I went on scrabble
just need 2 more, va5 & 6?
OK asg... how bad is it?
there's a non-word here that I would love to give a definition to; it just has such a wonderful sound. Can you imagine "slirk" as a descriptive verb?
will go and then must get to work - bye
the grid is hard for me, my move was good, but not a bingo!
va5/24 - va + most of murder, means an Indian lawyer
tx Vic!
thank, FIREWORK for me, not had many lately
WTG, Ishult!
You're welcome. Yay for Ishilt! *wandering off now*
(Ishult. Sorry.)

brb, need to check scrabble game! lol
she didn't go yet - makes me nervous!
hey all
hi bf
how you getting on today?
I opened the list at half way
trying to run thru it fast
thats the best way, smash and grab
excuse my inquisitive nature, but how is that school doing As?
in Rwanda?
Yes
and, sorry, I meant to ask how you were doing and got all buried again! The school opened in January - 145 kids so far - we're holding a fundraiser in May...
well give me a shout then, id happily help a worthy cause such as that
I keep missing out on opportunities to go (my kids need me around!)...but check out www.asyv.org - I'm hoping to visit this summer when my kids are at camp
i was once a camp counsellor in US - it is big over there
don't wait for me to ask - if you are inclined, then PLEASE go to the website and donate - every bit helps!! And thanks so much for asking :)
where were you a counsellor?
Hawley, Pennsylvania.
brb - phone
I would love to go to Africa just with lots of water and a tool box and build houses for people.
hello everyone :)
Hi cyberman
like most small ones, this seems to be tough with a bunch of obscure and questionable words
yes cyberman but i liked it more than yesterdays
ok, I'm back, but now have to head out in a bit
what camp in Hawley bf?
hy cyber
Camp Watonka ?
There are a LOT in that area....don't know that one
... 9
yeah it was outside of Hawley, there was another town nearby called... Lawton or something? The summer I was there the camp got flooded, insane amount of rain fell
aww, that's too bad. Rainy summers are tough on the kids (and the counsellors!)
I went to camp in Maine. My kids are going to New Hampshire
It was amazing, spent time in NYC too
shoot, I gotta run - bbl to finish off last 8
Bye for now
bye green
i have had SUCH a DAY sofar...
do tell
i feel like all of my clients today have been screaming for hugs
all kids
9, 14, 15, and 7
i think the 15 year old might write a book about his life
you allowed to do that, tragic?
their ages?
we'll see if he keeps it up, but he got so excited thinking about it. i gave him a notebook and he got so excited
um...not sure if i'm allowed
i would have though, if they'd actually have asked
*!* ta da *!* - thanks to lickety!
my rule working with the little ones (under 18) is that i ned to make sure that i'd be able to defend it if it ever got questioned
I was a therapist in a former life, and often wished I could do things that we weren't supposed to do -- like hugs
hi all
emotionally disturbed kids need hugs sometimes...that's just how i feel about it
me too
hi TO
congrats cyberman and hi owl
hi what's this v word i saw grumbled about earlier?
Actor Va* ***mer
ty, tor. i have the cars need the final v
plural i guess
ty. no wonder I was stuck on the v's
it's what soccer moms drive TO
i stopped in earlier to check the word count and i heard grumbling.
and are the va5/6 really cars?
It's a weird one
no the va 4 is a vehicle
oh. got it backwards
lol
gosh i'm not bright sometimes
i can eat a sleeve of thin mints in one sitting
and this is not a source of shame for me
it's delicious
that's talent, stud ;)
va5 means a native lawyer (Hindu word), apparently
mmm, thin mints....
i decided yesterday that i have a personality twin in india
ty, fuq. i need 25 words. only have one a so far, the celebes ox
i have absolutely nothing to back it up
but i'm pretty sure
you probably have thousands do;t yo uthink? and then there's china...
i've got a whole 'nother sleeve! **passes box to fuq**
one a4 means related and uses the high point tile
ooh, thanks, ts!
o|--
of exact personality twins? like... born on the same day, also lesbian...
one a4 is the sounds that ts and I are making as we consume thin mints
the only REAL kink in this thought is that i'm pretty sure that she'd be on babble right now
sigh
why not? look at the odds
an4/9 Egyptian letter
maybe she just doesn't have internet access yet, ts
aa4/5 sounds of satisfaction
opps sorry - you are unique, stud. just like everyone else. ;)
yay, that was my last A, tor!
i bet she'd love me
:-D
ty f or those As!
now can you help with F? I have 3/4 and stuck.

"novate" is a legal term. not accepted. :(
alright. bbl
(i'd hav given it to you TO) ;)
ty. maybeit's only "novation" that is is usage.
i think "snirk" should be a word. combo of snarl and smirk.
or snark and smirk.
Good word
wipe that snarky smirk off your face...
I lo4/7 it ..
(try adding 2 letters at the front TO)
que?
to that 6 letter word down there

Also remove the first letter
ty. i need t's, h, s and k words now. got all k but one! :)
oh and 2 l words.
any kh words?
No kh ..
ty. going now. happy babbling, all. live long and prosper.

heh
Yes, now I get your clue too, I was looking for a van ***mer...
i kept putting an extra L in it. then i got it.
yeah, sorry
ty bernice
i'm not so good with the clues sometimes :)
yesterday someone kept clueing the wrong definition of a word and it was making me crazy
and he refused to give any phonetic clues, just kept saying the same thing over and over
TS, I appreciate your help. I sometimes have similar cluing problems.
Hi, Bernice
lmao- was it me?
i don't remember. sorry if it was. it was for the word "athwart." he kept saying "stymie"
but athwart doesn't mean stymie. thwart does.
lordy I have 19 left and no hope in sight.
nope
what does athwart mean?
yeah, i have 46 left...
Now I've done it...couldn't resist starting, and now I have to go...
lol
it happens jell
it's a nautical term, i think
well come on to the Babble wagon Jellen.
OhBernice that makes sense.
but i kept trying to think of an AT word that meant stymie, and couldn't think of one, and he wouldn't give us anything else!
I just learned to play poker and have become an addict...been away from Babble for a few days...
where are you playing, jellen?
Ok, I am slightly alarmed, the weather guy just said, "Its a beuatiful day except for a touch of smoke in the air....." (We are having fire issues.)
Pokerstars
i play there, but mostly on full tilt. what game, hold em?

The 310 pt. sit and gos
*ata's information service*
Well hello! Doing adequately but defeated bythe in6,18 and in8,55. usual request. The third letter please

i play hold em tourneys, but stud and omaha 8 cash
sh 6/21 What you put on the bed
in8 to introduce something new
Cool...I'm thinking of trying Omaha soon...
torgone - thanks and the in6?
in omaha it's really hard to know if you're ahead. i find that at a full table, you have to have the ace high flush--king high won't be any good
Thanks
Got it
in 8, could I get a different clue, please
ka6,7 please
bichon, to come up with a new technology
ka 6 sounds like a Chinese Monastery, but starts with K
Used for upset stomachs
ty Bernice
glad that helped
but there's no pectate in the grid
Tim plays Omaha...he might help me...do you play in real life?
yes, i have a regular home game. i play at least once a week with them
i don't know what a chinese monastery is called :(
That sounds like fun...
i play in real life jell
it's so fun to be a female that's good at poker
yeah, i was in a tourney in atlantic city where no one took me seriously because i'm a woman. i made the final table, won $620.
can we return to the KA6 for just a moment...
i would enjoy that bernice

sh5,12.....over your mattress
Oh, boy! Have friends with miniature goats, they're so cute.
We've been considering getting pack goats for a really long time and visited an outfitter with a bunch of kids over the weekend

Hate to eat anything made from a goat, I apologize, but I had goat asprotien for several years.
hi jmc!!
Hi JMCrick.

cross, what happened to your goats?
lol the way you write my name red definately looks like Jimminy Cricket
that might be marginally better, as long as they dont eat your backpack!
oops sorry for the double
haha :-) red they wouldn't do that... besides, they'd be carrying most of our gear for us
thanks for the clue rbud
Blue, goatseat things, often you know, that are not r eally food, they very well might.
whoohoo! firewords for me :)
thanks for the clues, all
wtg jes
whoooo hoooo I ONLY hve 76 more words to go whoooopieeeeeeee yahooooooeeeeeeeeeeee

blue I love your sassy plattsburgh for peace picture
Good Job Jes!!!!! Shoots of 21 spaceshuttle salute for jesD.

yeah oodles
oh, i know, but the pack goat outfitters that we've been in touch with have been teaching us the ways to train them for the goat packing experience to avoid that
YAY jes WTG!
hahaha which one jmc? I don't remember feeling particularly sassy when that was going on, but maybe I was in a mood ;-)
we ended up selling the 3 goats bact to the live stock auctions
good for them Blue, I am sure they will be fun.
Boy though every time I hear goat I cringe.
I can't wait we're so excited :-D
as do i red..things are full of fleas all the time...shudder
but i hope yours work out well blue
the one with "hate is not a plattsburgh value signs"
why do you cringe red
I dont like goat. the meat tastes bad and they would be somewhat destructive. but Blue's goats are going to bevery well behaved and she does not have to eat them so...
oh, the group shot at the booth, jmc? Hahaha that was right in the middle of the craziness, the pickets were going on all around us and our community was on their best behavior but SO energized
looks like a fun group
one of our goats ate the bug screen right out of the screen door lol
I like cabrito
jmc, you are a brave soul.
well, we're keeping our fingers crossed, anyway :-)
I spent an entire vacation in Puerto Rico looking for cabrito but every day I came to the restaurant they told me it was the special the day before lol!

Could I have a clue of two for the N's in the middle.
hey, red I like bourban, pickled okra and calfs liver too

I like Okra in any form, but wont eat anyones organ meat....

I get soooo tired of being hung up on 4-letter words here, geesh
Good on you aussie
Shall we all show up for Mr. Aussie's party? We could all give him fireworks or cake maybe he has enough candles.
hi stidgmere..yes, I think if a party is mentioned here, it means we are all invited...
Anyone with the first two in words? the 6 and 8?
I thought that was the rule. If we know about a party, we just show up.
in6 in + nickname for Mr. Hawthorne
Finally....fireworks. Thanks everyone. Barking dog is about to drive me insane. Good night all.

i just grayed three boxes in a row with my last three words..it looked cool..just thought I'd share
well done, krista
ah, we Babblers are simple souls, eh? LOL
BINGO. The creative clue was perfect for fireworks. Thanks to you all, I have achieved 80 words!
yes, doesnt take much, Une..cheap thrills :)
yay, stidgmere!!!
whooooo hoooooo STIDGMERE!!!
Back just to see how many people think we will have a ginormous grid tomorro....
Nice on, Stidgmere!
Oh yeah, Red..you were hoping for a big one today, weren't you!
hey, red :-)
I am really starting to use the clues and crosschecking. But there are still some situations that require collaboration. Thank you all.
hope it's not ginormous, but 200 would be okay.
I was disappointed, but now tomorro I have 12 hours of work...
Poor red
I can do grids of somewhat less than 200 but this week has been very low. I'll predict a huge grid tomorrow.
i hope friday's will be relatively small...100-150
Well, the good thing is that I do actually have a job.
yup, gotta look at the silver lining, even if it looks tarnished at times.
good attitude, red
THat is true red
And I usually like my job. I do need however, a vacation.
but the grid never seems to cooperate with my work schedule!
as intense as your job is, i think you need more days off!
Patrick has been swamped and he's tired of working 7 days/week, but in his industry, we feel very lucky
Yes, I do think anyone with a good job is feeling fortunate these days.
do you get to babble at all at work, red?
Oh no, Krista, we do not have internet access, but even if we did,I wouldnt have time. I get excited when I can go to the bathroom.
Poor Red
hi everyone..can I get help with sh5,20?

Go Monkeys of Krista. go!
**throwing bananas as fast as I can**

everyday you have nice weather, stid, means it should be that way the next day for me!

Then you will have a LOVELY weekend!

yeah krista
go everyone go! Tom just brought me supper, will lurk while I slurp...

did you know Phoebe and I met Vicuna, and bought one of her books stid?
what's for supper, stid?
back to chat... how cool is that? I love the artist trading card she sent me.
supper is stir fry today. tofu, egg, bell pepper, carrot... yum!
also bought a print of an armadillo for phoebe's bedroom. she really is talented
Pam, I'd love to meet up if I come back to the area...there was talk about an NYC babble meet-up, too
wonderful! yes, I love her artwork! And her books (will read when stidkid lets go of them) look very intriguing.
stidkid loves them!
that sounds very yummy, stid
Yes, Krista, indeed!!!
firewords
whooooooo hoooooo DORENS
would you be able to make it to nyc if that happens?
YAY dorens!

Good evening all
ok pam, so i will post something on facebook. most likely Jaime (david's fiancé) will take me... she loves the place and has been talking about it for years)
WOULFIE!!!!
evening grey woulf but good night all... a demain
WOULF!!! *faints, get up and faints again*
sweet dreams dorens!
hi and bye Dorens
woulf!
yes, that's the one I was talking about, Dorens..that would be a blast..night!
Hey hey lbd, stid, and featherbee!
are you okay? kids okay? life okay? where have you been? how's the weather? plans for the future? no illness?
night night, Dorens
lol stid
{{**Big HUGS for all**}}
hi feather...
i think that about covers it, stid! lol
hi feather
are you eating your veggies?
(forgot that one)
In answer to your questions stid -- We are all doing well - though the kids are just finishing up with upper respiratory infections
nighty night folks..feel better stiddly
sweet dreams krista -- I will.
I have a slight infection as well, but we all got good antibiotics so nothing to worry about
poor wee ones! glad they're on the mend
night night, Krista
Niters Krista ..
hello tor!
good for you woulf. best to stay on top of things like that!
They were the lucky ones, stid -- their meds were only a five day run! Mine are at least seven
Heya stid..
And they get to drink theirs... mine are horse pills
I am done I have fireworks! ta 6/18 was my last word
blah. meds. blah.
Howdy torgone
whooooooo hooooooo MIN!!!!
hello Min! YAY Min! welcome to the chog!
Yayyy for Min!!
as I recall, the liquid meds are pretty foul...
zpac! zythromyocine...good stuff!
horse pills, yeah that about sums them up
Thats the stuff for the kids, lbd I am taking Biaxin
Heya Grey! Long time ..
stid - the liquids are better for the kids now -- they come in flavors that they like
azithromycin... very potent, they try to use that only for resistant bugs so it won't trigger resistance.
i like z-pac. mostly cuz i usually can't remember to take pills more than once a day! lol
too true, tor -- I haven't had the same time for Babbling like I used to
well glad that has improved, at least. my kids rarely needed antibiotics, but they were nasty.
Yay Min!
don't know biaxin *runs off to look*
looks interesting. it's a new one, nice (pretty) chemical structure. rather elegant actually...
gahhhh!
oh, whew. ignore me. thought i lost a file. didn't.
feather dear?
(back...gads my dau can talk alot)
take after you, does she?
I have to get up early to get Kristianna to pre care at school, then I work all day -- if I am lucky I don't have to pick her up when she is done (Stupid half day kindergarten class!) -- then I usually have to run errands on the way home which means I don't get home until 7ish -- that leaves an hour or so before getting the kids into bed, by which time I don't have much energy to do more than spend some quiet time with Kirsten before going to bed to do it all over again
STID!!!!
All daus can Pini ..
she took her dog for a walk and "wanted company"...
i was an idiot earlier today, did a lot of work on a file for school, closed it, hit "no" instead of "yes" on the save prompt. so now today, when my window minimized itself randomly, i had a mini-heart attack.
(((((WOULF))))) hope to see you again soon. enjoy the kids, don't work to hard, etc etc
busy day, woulf ;)
oh I hate when I do things like that feather!
yes, pini? *innocent look*
I ain't gone yet stid -- I still have 22 to find -- beside I took an energy drink tonight
I did that last night before I left the office...went to work on it again today and lo and behold NOTHING!!!
oh! okay, I thought you were making your good-byes! LOL
oh, don't gimme that innocent look! LOL
ah, here's tom with the hot pack (cycling hot and cold until the pain goes away)
I have 36 more to find...tthink I should list?
NOpe -- just giving a way too long explanation as to why I haven't been around in such a long time
* thanks, Tom! *
what hurts stid?
Theist will help ..
The * list
* deciphering * Thanks, tor!! :)
going now...
the stupid-dumb hip again feather. was pain-free all day, went to get kid from my mother's and it popped. *sigh* so missing the last class.
list list list...
ouch, that stinks
on the plus side, I talked with the teacher on the phone and she understood so I am not in danger of losing credits
Oh, Stid...I'll be expecting a phone call on my drive up to PTD...(from the dau)...
...will be anxiously awaiting that one!! * excited *
yes pini? do tell!
is she going to be getting a job?
my dau will be getting her next ultrasound...they're going to find out if the little one will be M or F! :)
(this is the one with a job; I've employed the other to help with (un)packing stuff for our office move tho)
oh! did I miss something? when is she due?
oh goodie!
August 1
how exciting, Pini!
well let me know. I still have to mail off the blanket for my best friend's baby that was born last APRIL.
this will be my 2nd GC
I need LOTS of lead-time.
* giggle *
August 1. August is a good time to be born, methinks.
well, since I'll be meeting up with you, you'll be one of the first to learn! :)
gee, stid. it could end up being a graduation pressie! lol
you may need to remind me, as I age my mind gets a bit sieve-like

hi all
bye lbd
I see I missed ruru and greywolf
Hello, if there's anyone still here. I'm doing my usual thing, 2 early nights followed by a really late night. I see I missed Wolfie. I've been meaning to ask if anyone's seen BrandyJack lately?
hi jac I am here but I think I may be alone -- it's kinda hard to see
Hi jmc. Apparently, there are 95 people on line here. However, some people don't switch their pcs off.
yeah I looked at the list but I just heard an echo when I talked
Habe you finished the grid, jmc?
What echo-o-o-o-o-o-o?;-)
no 32 left--did you get your man's code?
or are you just avoiding the PB?
Safe to say now (I think) that I didn't.
finished the greid?
grid?
i have finished if you need clues
I've had a sore throat for a couple of weeks now though, but that's probably due to smoking.
I liked the poem
I finished the grid in the UK morning of it, jmc.
Sandy - thanks for the offer.
maybe that will get you to quit (I promise not to say more)
Thanks jmc. Do you know a man like that? Most of us do, I think.
I could use a clue for ak 4/8 sandy
lol Jac , I smoke too but dont have a sore throat
yeah my husband was only occassionaly like that
a + think of the ancestor
my sonpretty much never
rats a fish
ty sandy
ak4 - very similar to something.
these small grids make for small chogs
ty jac
its midday here so im very much awake
Not always, jmc. Sometimes people just whitter on, erm, I mean chat more. LOL
It's 3.10am here, sandy.
11 pm here but i rarey hit the hay before midnight
I've been in bed by 11pm the past 2 nights, had far too much sleep, and so a very late night ensures now.
very early/late Jac
whitter? what does that mean (I think I could guess)?
My ideal bedtime is 12.30am but I very rarely stick to it.
I find that sometimes, last night i hardly slept but slept well the two nights before that
help with last ha 4/5 pls
whitter - chatter on about inconsequential things.
I tend to just get up really really early
great word is that regional?
Don't know, jmc. Maybe.
ha4.5 - take the 'e' out of the hot flash.
*flashes
No, that was a correction. I'm not flaunting my naked body on the chog. LOL
That would be enought to put anyone off the grid.
lol that's a relief ruru and torg did enough of that
They did? What did I miss?
but the clue didn't do it for me
there was a hot tub the other night
or ha4/5 I ha** it when i run out of wine
I tuned into Facebook just before I got here. The promised changes have been put in place - a whole new layout and I don't like it.
argh another fish and I kept rejecting that one
ty jac
Hot tub? Sounds like the old days of Ang & Lola.
so what don't you like about it?
I came in the chog just as everyone was getting out
Well, the applications have to be opened up in a new sidebar now, are not handily at the top right like they were before.
I will check it out in the am I can't say I do much in Facebook besides set up dinner parties for my HS Sunday School Class
Also, I made a comment earlier on a Babbler's 'Baby How To' album and it's now disappeared. GRR.
o that's really too bad and kind of defeats the point
Hilarious set of pictures about baby dos and don'ts.
jmc - are you a friend of Samantha Govier on there? If so, check out that album.
my husband's advice to new dads was never sueeze a diaper
Good advice - can you imagine the green fountain?
Or brown, if the baby is a little older. Bleurgh!
I don'tthink I am I will try tomorrow for that *writing name down*
my husband was generally a pretty funny guy
ho 4/9 the first one pls
jmc - sound a goose makes.
ho 4 9 is like the center of an egg
(Or maybe a horn noise.)
ty nrkii and hi
Oops. That's the 2nd ho4.9. nrkii's clue is the right one. Sorry.
hi!
good horn noise
nono I think the first one sounds like a horn too
just not conventional
25 left
nrkii, i can sooo relate to your profile
A Beverley Hillbillies' horn, jmc.
exactly jac! lol
what part sandyloo? the recovering babble addict, the nellie adoration, or the muffin recipe? :)
Are we not all recovering Babble addicts?
lol the babble bit - lucky im not addicted but i know some who are!!
dunno Jac, have you recovered yet? :)
I have no particular desire to recover
Apart from the new meat, that is. *Evil cackle*
Yes, halfway there, nrkii.
spoken like a true babbler jm
well, admitting you have a problem is the first step'
But I do come back on here when I'm awake in the still of the night, because I know someone will be around.
so I think sandyloo is in the most trouble based on responses below
shoot I aint admitting nothing
I like that part jac
LOL nrk
help with the il pls
il * sort of sounds like a crows cry
I've started doing housework again, AND moving the little piles of possessions my Beloved has got used to leaving around when my house-proudness deserted me.
thought I tried that
ty
i meant to say il +
il4 = someone of your il* (type) + vowel
ty nrkii
il4.8 - smooth material like satin but without it's first letter and followed by a vowel.
oh, a CROW... I thought it said a COW and I was thinking ilmoo won't work
ty too jac
It's a Scottish word meaning 'each' or 'all of them' or 'every one'.
lol nrkii
hehehe
lo5 16 help please?
lo + i would like a *** of wine
Actor 'Lyle' maybe?
good one jac
ty
It's a greenish hue really.
really? like what comes from sueezing ;-)
Sandy - I liked your clue.
tg there is no q in the grid tonight my keyless key is clearing not working
lol unfortunately it's not wine o'clock here yet!
Mind you, if you did have a *** of wine, you'd regret it for days afterwards, if you hadn't died of alcohol poisoning, that is.
Jac, I would make it last....
Oh yuck, jmc. Yes, maybe.
2 to go
Sandy - PHEW! I thought you meant to drink it all at once.
go nrkii
HA HA
17 here
you know Jac, there is definitely a big drinking culture here in Aus.
done!
this was a tough grid for being so small
wtg nrkii
Well done, nrkii.
It was nrk , I didnt really like it much -I hope the next one is larger as well
good job!
okay, long long day ahead of me tomorrow, so I'd better turn in
g'night all!
I not fond of mega grids but some thing in the 100 to 200 range
sandy - and it's spreading out over the globe. Ha! Let's not blame the UK government for extending the drinking hours. It's you lot causing it. LOL
bye nrkii
im going to change my icon, I know just the recipe!
recipe's tomorrow?
Well, Sands, if you are intending to change your icon to 'I prefer a big one!' I hope you are discreet about it.;-)
lol jac
help with ov pls
I like the 2 or 3 hundred + grids. You can do half of them at first sitting and then take the rest of the day on a nice-sized grid.
egg-shaped, jmc.
I like them on days when I don't work jac other wise I don't have time and then settle for 1/2 of nbt
I can understand that, jmc.
still not seeing it jac
ov + 'cosumed food'.
*consumed
I like those too jac
also getting frustrated forming sentences without ha 4/8 :-)
ty jac got it
I've always wished the chog would allow editing.
what kinds of fish is there?
In the grid or on offer to slap yourself with?
I have never understood really what a "fish" is -can you explain it to me
to slap myself with for the egg shape? oye!
a fish is a word so common and easy that i "should" ha4/8 seen it myself
Sandy - a 'fish' or 'to slap yourself with a fish (fresh or frozen) is the chosen punishment Babblers have when they have to ask because they have not found really obvious words in the grid.
aaaah its happened to me many times, thanks for that
alas I ha4/8 a harder time seeing the fish than the babblets sometimes
That happens to us all after we've Babbled for some time, jmc.
and yet. . . .help with ri--my monkeys are starting to write up strike posters
*strike**strike**strike**strike*
My partner is dyslexic and I rely on him in times of dire Babble need to find the words I've missed. But's that's more about the weird spellings of things Enable allows.
wash the clothes then ri**e them
sigh once again I thought I tried that
I need some negotiators with my monkeys though

sh6/27 - rhymes with an fa slang word for female sexual part.
among other things I don't understand the basis underwhich the grids accepts vulgar words
It's really a type of blenny - a fish.
fa slang???
My middle name is Frances, and in the time of Charles II, it was shortened.
Actually, I think you in USA use the term for a woman's bum/bottom.
I had a friend in elementary school who was called that and was mercilessly teased
5
Here in UK, it's a term for 'front bottom'. Oh LOL, never thought I'd be forced to use the term my Mum and her neighbours used to whisper about over the garden fence.
in aus we use it to describe the front bit
Thank gawd for that, sandy.
yes we do use is an even call a pack around your waist a fanny pack
We might be whinging Poms, but we do share mostly the same language.
gosh I learned a new vulgar word! ty jac always want to expand my vocabulary lol
jmc - we call that a bum bag.
lol
jac, i love the poms and we do share a similar humour, different to the americans -I use pom in an affectionate manner
Is a bum bag in USA like a fag hag over here? LOL
last sh 5/18 pls
a fag hag is a woman who has mainly gay guy friends
jmc - to push forcefully.
I would like to sh*** the rooster over a cliff
lol ty sandy
now that was a fish lol
i guess i'm a bit of a fag hag then , i have some terrific gay friends
I agree, Sandy. Why do people keep them in gardens when they are not needed for egg production? Noisy varmints!
I am too but it disturbs me to be difine by someone elses sexual preference
ours is sometimes quite agressive-he has calmed down a lot at the moment as he is moulting
Roosters that is, not gays. LOL
I grew up in Houston which is a fairly large city and there were roosters down the block from me
lol jm , me too , i think it is not a very nice term!
I wondered about that comment jac until you clarified lol!
3
Well they always get all depressed and quiet when thy're moulting (or in the case of human males, have got A Cold. except for the snoring.)
2
lol
I used to work for a gay dermatologist and also I used to hunt (tallyho style) and made some very good friends through those things
really did you kill a fox?
Belove told me he wouldn't snore tonight because his blockages were cleared. He lied. I'm set up to sleep in the spare bedroom, unless he gets up for work before I go to bed.
my boss used to wear all brightly coloured coats instead of a white coat, he had his surgery painted very colourfully (it looked like a daycare centre) and he had ella fitzgerald music piped into the waiting room
too bad about the snoring did you ever try those nose stips?
He used to waltze the old ladies up the aisle to the treatment rooms. he was a great collector of art as well and a well known figure about perth
I've been on quite a few on foot huntsin North Wales. I made sure I never yelled out when I saw a fox, or 2 or 3.
I just want my denist to do his job and not be chearful about it
yeah doubt I could kill anything more than a insect
we never caught a fox , sometimes a kangaroo -aussie hunting is a lot different than english hunting. we hunted through thick bush at the hand gallop!! -while swigging our flasks!
but I am happy when people kill mice and rats
I tried the nose strips myself, jmc but there was no one around to tell me if they worked. These days, I get woken up on the hour, every hour, by night sweats.
ooo sounds fun sandy
been there done that jac
If I want to try the snoring strips on Beloved, I'll have to moisutise his face for a week before unless he's to lose skin.
that's no good jac. and it was great fun jm- I would be too scared to do it these days unless i had a very quiet horse
I was never good on a horse
I just ride gently around now and jump lower jumps
I'm not great on a horse either.
english saddle or western?
the older i get the further away the ground gets
lol sandy
english style, but i have rode some western horses which I thought were fantastic
They give me the 'quiet' horse and then, because it doesn't feel comfortable with the other horses' it gallops off back to the stables with me hanging on shouting, 'Whoah!'
have ridden....
lol jac
Then, when it's almost scalped me getting back into its stable, it gives me the big-browned eyed 'SORRY!'
'k' I give up help with ta 4/8 and 5/18 for fireworks
i have to have an afternoon nap , i am so tired at the moment
ta4/8 a large military vehicle
ta4.8 - army vehicle or large water container.
ta5.18 is a type of poem.
ta 5/18 same word plus the first vowel
I am pretty much ready for bed myself but only ha5/8 2 to go
sandy - I used to have to do that when I was pregnant, for the first trimester.
i had hardly any sleep last night!
ty all firework -- upon which I can roast the fish!
LOL, Sands.
lol jm and jolly good show!
Flash frying them. jmc
lol and night all I leave you alone with the echo--but the flip crowd should be showing up soon
are we the only ones here?
pretty much sandy but not for long
Think so, Sandy.

People who don't switch their computers off, sandy.
Hi, all, I'm here, just hanging around...checking in and out...waiting on the flip...
..and who elct to stay signed in to various sites.
Hi rbud.
hi rbud
I do kind of leave the site open sometimes when I'm "elsewhere". Is that lurking? or just lurky-looking? ;p
I was about to say 'when I'm gone, I'm gone' but I tapped in an ISBN (Book number) from a poetry anthology I was a co-author of many years ago and found it for sale on Amazon. That freaked me out.
Ooh, a published author! Hats off, Jac!
hats off indeed!
clue for in6? please
rbud - I thought you knew?
author,poet, illustrator, but that was years ago. I'm coming back soon as a new utterfly.
in + when you are pregnant you get pre***al care
*butterfly
i am in awe jac
ty- that was a fish
Nope, I'm not up to speed on everyone's real life pursuits. I'll remember now, though.
im published too- I once wrote a letter to the paper! lol
Sands - that's perfectly acceptable to add to your writing cv.
hehe
rb - same here. I feel so wicked sometimes when I don't know people's woes.
Anyway, this 'old' writer and artist, about to become a 'new' one, is going to retire to the spare room to sleep and dream of the time when her Belove, whom she loves cuddling up to, will stop the road drill cold snoring.
well, it's hard to keep track sometimes. I read the bios often, and have found lots of neat stuff. But whose is whose is still confusing.
the woes I have at the moment are that two of our dogs are in season and are trying to visit the neighbours
the woes I have at the moment are that two of our dogs are in season and are trying to visit the neighbours
dogs whom they want to get biblical with
ahhh, that is woeful, sandy! lol
And will try not to dream of 'tied' dogs. LOL
dont go there Jac!!!
actually that reminds me im tired so i wll be back later! "poof"
thank goodness our little mutt is fixed! and both our cats. And me! Out of the production business, yay. Bye sandy!
Sandy - I assume you know that once dogs are 'tied', i.e. back to back in the sex act, you should not attempt to part them? The male penis grows in the middle with a big bulge aand ties him to the female until the sex act is done. Pulling them apart can cause major internal damage to both.
Oh, my, so throwing cold water on them is a bad thing?
rbud - YES!
If they're back to back by the time you find them.
not that I ever have done that, but I've heard of it.
If he male is still panting away just having jumped on the back of, it's okay to part them. But once they are rear to rear, you really have to leave it be.
Oh dear! This is getting a little graphic, is it not?
I don't think anyone's too upset by it. I used to work for the Humane Society, I've seen it all! :)
Well, speaking of reproduction, my buddy on another site says she's posted pics of her brand-new kittens, off to check it out. Back for the flip!
Seems it's okay to talk about animals but not humans. LOL
Shall I post my favourite song of all time again on here, and if the youtube film I think will come up for the full version does come up, tell you not to look at the groupies in the film, or even the film, but just listen to the music?
Hello -- here's a last chance to enjoy my sort-of ancestor before I switch to the next theme -- your Favourite International Food...
hey, peeps
saw jac's comment as I was uploading, and had to come in :D you're so right, jac. it would almost certainly cause damage to the male (and probably to the female) to separate dogs once joined & flipped
Hi tyger!!!
hey, jilli. interesting relatives! ;)
http://tinyurl.com/4jd5te
lurve the pome, jac. sounds just like a man
Shame the author of the 1 min 20 second film with no film spelled the name of the band wrong, It's Lynyrd Skynrd.
jac, did you check out my icon story?
well, jac, not everybody's a spelling wizard like us. but you're right; they shoulda oughta CHECKED!
my interesting relatives are all centuries ago :sigh:
well, that was the point of the theme, tyger!
no images ... not even first names, ah, well
a lot of us had ancestors who painted themselves blue and such
mine (on father's side) enslaved people - or were soldiers for those who did :( (Spanish conquistadors)
Not today, jilli, no. Was checking out the youtube film of the 12 year-old kid supposedly playing all 5 guitars in Freebird. (Not!!)
more details on the kid, jac? (duh ... what's Freebird??)
Heck, jilli. If there hasn't been a film about him, one should be made.
well, jac, you still can for a few minutes -- you might get a kick out of it
tyger - just listen to the song!
oh, my, Guitar Hero...thank goodness my kid got over that in a hurry.
ah, yes jac -- I see you just did, and the Australian Broadcasting system did one which I think was shown in the UK under "Dynasties"
I gotta get off the computer. my leg's starting to leak. gotta go to treadmill, then bed :( I should never have come in here in the first place :sigh:
oh, tyger!!! Bummer!!!
I'm not supposed to be spending time here
No kick out of the kid film jillia, 'cos he had help.
Oh dear, tyger.
aww, sounds rough - bye, tyger!
yeah, jilli. no fun, and end isn't in sight :(
Now for the new icon...
later, all
I'm still rocking to my fave soundtrack.
