Impressive Trif.

5:50 am

diot

5:50 am

5:50 am

he just got his learning permit to drive too, and that has been such fun. We really have a good time, going to office parks at night, back roads, that sort of thing, until he gains more confidence.

5:50 am

whatcha doing today on this lovely rainy day?

5:51 am

have been "stealth babbling" for a while being busy and all... - sophomore chemistry...hmmm he's probably passed me as well !

not much at all

tode

5:51 am

this is interesting - "qats" is a word, but can't enter it, because of the "qu" combo. First time I have come across that

5:52 am

Well, I am just delighted to know you are well, and happy, and busy too - not sure how your area of canada is faring, but there are LOTS of people down my way with entirely too much time to babble, since there isn't enough work

5:53 am

can i have a clue for the 9 ? pllease

5:54 am

lynn, did you ask lickety about your list issues? I know you said the other day you couldn't get it to work, and he really is very nice about tech support.

5:55 am

no not yet i guess i will soon tho

5:55 am

yes I am fine except for my youngest grandson who has to undergo open-heart surgery...possibly this week - he is 7 monts.... - economy not brilliant here but not as bad as the US - even heard yesterday that construction is up all over the country in the past month...a bit of a surprise but encouraging news indeed...

5:56 am

he really is most approachable, and I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to NEVER be able to list. I would perish!

5:56 am

My dog's name is in the grid!

5:56 am

months* even

5:56 am

don't have the 9 yet...sorry...

5:56 am

oh, montreal, such a worry for you all! will keep him in my prayers....how is your daughter or son (the parent) handling it? is it their first child?

5:57 am

ok

5:57 am

is the name an enable accepted word, gail?

5:57 am

Jessy is my youngest daughter's 3rd son - other 2 are 9 and 11 years old...from a different father...

5:58 am

I will pray for you all....

5:58 am

Yes, and its plural, too. I think multiples of my dog are good.

5:58 am

tx ((trif))

5:58 am

and here I am moaning about a chemistry test...je suis desolee, mon ami

5:59 am

hmmm...Rex, Prince, Princess, Fido....

5:59 am

Biscuit?

5:59 am

don't be dear - we all have our worries...well, most of us anyway...

5:59 am

not to pry, but is to correct something? my BFF;s son had tetrology of Fallot, and he had surgery at about the same age, and he is THRIVING now....so there is hope and excellent surgeons out there.

6:00 am

Why, yes. I would love to have a biscuit.

6:01 am

We have a Biscuit, used to have a Muffin and we gave Cupcake to our daughter

6:01 am

I will pray the surgery goes well. My youngest was born with heart problems and we had some very rough years before she outgrew it.

6:01 am

can anyone help with the 9?

6:01 am

oooh, I would love a muffin right about now.

6:01 am

morning all

6:01 am

And a cupcake. Yummy.

6:02 am

it's not an uncommon occurrence apparently: 2 holes in his heart ! - but yes, we have excellent surgeons at Ste-Justine hospital and th4 have been very successful in the past with similar cases but ...

6:02 am

my first daughter was as well, gail, and you couldn't be more right - those first years are hellish

6:02 am

I know, montreal....the "but" is just terrifying.

6:02 am

So many trips to the hospital in the middle of the night.

6:03 am

it was the bright blue lips every time she cried that got me....NEVER got used to it

6:03 am

thank you Gail - Jessy is 7 months old and only weighs 13 pounds...his heart just can't cope really with growing up...

6:03 am

se 9 = rousing to rebellion

6:04 am

afternoon all

6:04 am

was my first word lol

6:04 am

on the plus side, montreal, the improvement once the holes are fixed will really be remarkable.

6:04 am

Hello everyone.

6:04 am

They told me Mary Ellen has to wait until she was nine to have surgery, as her problem needed her heart to be a certain size. But at the age of five she started to grow and it was fine.

6:04 am

hey there Kalia and scrabs !

6:04 am

6:12 am

May I have a different clue for that 9, please? The uprising clue and the wine clue have not helped me yet.

6:12 am

just discovered I have wild muscat grapes growing all over the woods behind my house. Are they good for anything?

6:12 am

My Sicilian GF made his own wine from his own grapes--an old crank wine press.

6:13 am

muscat is a good "blending" grape

6:13 am

um let me think

6:13 am

se9 is adj for a person who is a traitor, a rebel...

6:13 am

ta Montreal...difficult to clue it

6:13 am

*looking for adjective ending*

6:13 am

It's a Babble rabble sort of adjective isn't it????

6:13 am

6:14 am

don't want to say "rhymes with..."

6:14 am

chardonnay with muscat..riesling with muscat

6:14 am

6:14 am

6:14 am

6:14 am

Keep dumbing down the clue please...caffeine infusion has just begun.

6:14 am

Lynn, you and me both--struggling!

6:15 am

but not much use on their own, eh carlee? the only other fruity stuff I have around here are elderberries and raspberries

6:15 am

good morning everyone

6:16 am

I found it! I know the noun form but never knew the adj form.

6:16 am

se9 ressembles (a bit) what is found at the bottom of the oceans...

6:16 am

ok im lost on that nine

6:16 am

Hi Sue

6:16 am

nope doesn't rhyme with that !

6:16 am

6:16 am

WTG Kristine

TY ty , now off to get the stinkers moving along

have a great day everyone !!

6:29 am

we have a stream that runs through our yard, and i was just telling primos' friends the other day how I haven't seen the usual pair of mallards this year, and how sad we were, etc. the kids go out for lunch, come back, and there are the mallards. quacking laughs at me, making me a big liar.

6:30 am

and the ducks haven't been back since. evil mallards!

6:30 am

tricksy ducks!

6:31 am

has anyone seen the stid family yet today? they are in the grid!

6:31 am

Yippee Kris!

6:33 am

I watched "The Bucket List" last night, what a wonderful movie.

6:33 am

hello sue! My sister's old boyfriend produced that movie. It is excellent, isn't it????

6:34 am

it was touching and a memory that I enjoy each time I think of a scene

6:34 am

It never felt rushed. It flowed and ebbed and was great

6:35 am

I am so glad sue!!!! have my last DC class tonight - we are going to bbg on a beach. isn't that fun!

6:35 am

It just so happens that I have to watch "One Flew Over the Coocoos Nest" tomorrow night

6:35 am

BBQ even

6:35 am

get out!!!

6:35 am

that is great

6:35 am

oh, geez, have lots of tissues on hand for that one!

6:36 am

Dale and I are working things out. He wants me to keep my ring on, but we are going to live in our own homes until marrage

6:36 am

Hey sue, mind if I ask - mr. hate is coming tomorrow night to collect some furniture. do i have to boil the house, or is a regular clean enough?

6:36 am

IT MAKEA YOU CRY?

6:36 am

wow, seriously!? best of luck, sue, I really mean it.

6:37 am

Trif, just smile and forgive him

6:37 am

every 10 seconds if you must

6:37 am

I myself was on a 5 sec interval

6:37 am

Good for you, Sue.

6:37 am

but I promise you, with all my heart, once you forgive and walk away from the anger.....

6:37 am

I just don't know if it is okay for me to just make the house presentable, or is more required, lest I get judged harshly for not keeping the place up....

6:37 am

God will take care of it.

6:38 am

SCREW HIM

6:38 am

I am trying , sue, I really am

6:38 am

You are not to blame. If he wants the house clean, hand him a rag on the way in.

6:38 am

Trif, good luck. Remain calm and in control, even if you fake it. Have pity for him--he is making such awful decisions that will haunt him later if not sooner.

6:38 am

oh, sue, how you make me laugh....LOVE you!

6:38 am

lol

6:38 am

OK, I must get ready for work!

6:39 am

Bye all. Enjoy the day!

6:39 am

really Trif. make the house stick so he wont stay

6:39 am

bye scrab

6:39 am

I just want to appear above fault. I don't want to give him ANY fodder...so I am thinking that this place better look amazing

6:39 am

bye scrab!

6:39 am

stink

6:40 am

but really, just smile, even if you have to put petrolium jelly on your teeth. Smile and dont give him the satisfaction.

6:41 am

he is not your problem any more, unless you make it that way.

6:41 am

thank you sue. will try

6:42 am

Trif, your a wreck, your house reflects that. THAT IS OK! it means you cared and loved him, why else did you marry him.

6:42 am

he won't see it that way though. he will see it as more evidence of my failures

6:43 am

it irks me when you hear wives bashing thier husbands, what does that say about them being stupid enough to marry him

6:43 am

SO, if in his eyes your whole worth is how clean the house is, he is such a jerk.

6:43 am

hmmmm. great point!

6:44 am

you are a diamond in Gods eyes, why do you care about this mans thoughts about you

6:44 am

okay, officially in love with you now, sue.....

6:45 am

<3 <3

6:45 am

supposed to be hearts, but sort of look more like dropped ice creams....

6:46 am

good morning everyone;)

6:46 am

good morning crossy!!!

6:47 am

are you back to your full health, dear?

6:47 am

who me?

6:47 am

yes, weren't you feeling sort of unwell and sore there a couple of weeks ago?

6:48 am

got something removed from you abdomen, wasn't it?

6:48 am

had a agreesive leison removed and the stit ches came oit yesterday but other than that im in the pink:)

6:48 am

remember,wear sunscreen everyone;)

6:48 am

yes, knew it was some such. glad to hear the stitches are out....

6:48 am

Trif, read 1. Peter

6:49 am

okay sue. have it right handy here, in fact....

6:49 am

its about how the trials make you shine

6:49 am

do you want to know how I made it through?

6:49 am

wine?

6:50 am

I always thought "if God needs to use me to make Steve a better man and father, then all is well with my soul"

6:50 am

It sucked, but God was using me..

6:50 am

oh, good gracious, sue, I am no where NEAR that level of altruism just yet, but I admire your largesse more than words could say

6:51 am

I didnt even know He really knew me, and here he was using ME. Caring enough about me to make me stronger

6:51 am

I love your vocabulary

6:51 am

do you know who Nicole C. Mullen is?

6:51 am

I am more at the "hopeful optimism" stage - if this happened, it must be that god has something better in store...

6:51 am

not yet, but I wrote her name down

6:52 am

her second cd is about YOUR WORTH in Gods eyes, plus the music is kicking

6:53 am

great, thanks!!1!

6:54 am

opps i hopped in the middle of something..going through some hard times trif?

6:54 am

great music to clean to, but also great to remember that He says "Blessed is the man who persevers under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that Gos has promised to those who love Him."

6:54 am

just the usual, crossy....

6:55 am

seems my husband decided being a father and husband wasnt for him after all, and is coming tomorrow to start taking furniture and such. I was stressing over how clean the house needs to be. foolish perhaps, but there it was....

6:56 am

lol

6:56 am

Trif, he left, not you.

6:56 am

ahh,when times get tough the best revenge is living well and for yourself,being true to your beliefs and morals so you can sleep at night and if that bends anyones nose out of joint then tell them to go pound sand..just read that..and loving your kids cause they are the best of you and your immortality:)

6:57 am

yes, I know. but who doesn't want their house to look nice? I just don't seem to be able to muster up much energy to scour the place. just need to do it, and stop obsessing over it. just do it, as the nike folks say

6:57 am

amen sista

6:57 am

and iff he dosent like the way the house looks,then to hell with him btw

6:57 am

yep

6:57 am

thank you, both. (((((hugs))))

6:58 am

depression is exhuasting for a reason trif. Just learning this in class.

6:58 am

it is your bodies way of sitting your ass down.

6:58 am

and anyway, it will be easier to clean after he takes the furniture, lol

6:59 am

and you cry if you want to, it's YOUR HOUSE.

6:59 am

my house has not been truly clean since he had our boy,and you know what? we dont care.the days that when our mothers had everything covered in plastic and spend all day cleaning are long gone.im sure my boy like being involved with my wife rather than watching the back of her head while she cleans;0

7:00 am

oh yea

7:00 am

I figure my house will be clean when the boys leave, till then, we are going to live in this house

7:00 am

I don't actually make the messes around here, that is true enough, crossy. and you are right about kids. it is the rare one who will ask to clean - anything. or complain about the house being a tip

7:00 am

well, school starts at 9 and I am looking pretty rough.

7:00 am

but I will feel better if the house is something I dont have to be ashamed of.

7:01 am

then clean it for you, not him

7:01 am

11:47 am

11:47 am

you can go see if there is anything good in the PB alison! ;-)

11:47 am

glad to hear about the change

11:47 am

sorry smaa-- don't have it

11:48 am

third letter would help-anyone

11:48 am

it seems that it is a big secret that many elderly people hallucinate --

11:49 am

sorry I am not listing smaa

11:49 am

so nrkii are you telling him face to face?

11:49 am

my dad hallucinated when in hospital on certain meds

11:49 am

no, by phone after he gets off work

11:50 am

still a very new relationship

11:50 am

I have since found out that it is common

11:50 am

better while it is new than after it is older

11:50 am

is your mom on any sleep meds?

11:50 am

still tough no matter what for you and him nrkii

11:51 am

yes, I feel like I have to end it now, and I wish I didn't

11:51 am

no, no sleep meds. But she is 95 and apparently that is enough! go figure.

11:52 am

well, my grandma also hallucinated when she was in her late 80's... she was in a nursing home, and her room was on the 2nd floor, and she'd imagine men of different races coming in the window to have sex with her

11:52 am

I think it was wishful thinking, mostly

11:53 am

once she took up with the nice gentleman down the hall, I think those hallucinations went away

11:53 am

well that is what I mean -- it's apparently a common occurrence that isn't discussed much

11:54 am

but Mother has new meds now and is doing much better

11:54 am

that's good jmc!

11:54 am

My mother saw opera singers at the window (third floor) in the hospital after she had a stroke.

11:54 am

It was a harrowing week

11:55 am

I wondered how she knew they were opera singers. Did they sing? or was it their costumes?

11:55 am

My mother keep seeing human rats that would steal her family photos

11:55 am

I have delusions about hallucinating, but I am not paranoid about it.

11:55 am

Mother is 92 and has good days and bad days. Lots of sleeping.

11:55 am

maybe it was the proverbial fat lady

11:55 am

that's great stidgmere! at least it was a pleasant vision

11:55 am

pb stid

11:56 am

The important thing is not to keep looking over one's shoulder.

11:56 am

just because I am paranoid doesn't mean th4 aren't out to get me

11:56 am

I think the fat lady sings at football games. That's what the announcers always say, "It's not over 'til the fat lady sings."

11:57 am

Oh, of course everyone is out to get you. That is fait acompli.

11:57 am

that is a casey stengel quote referring to the opera

11:57 am

what? th4 are? who told you?

11:58 am

Don Meredith would sing, turn out the lights the party's over

11:58 am

Saw it on the internet thus it is true.

11:58 am

11:58 am

anyone else having issues with the grid post-server-restart? im entering new words, but it says i already have them...

1:48 pm

Oh, well. I see the list is complete just not loaded on Babble.

1:49 pm

Back up to send words to babble and do so.

1:50 pm

supplied argument is not a valid mySQL result, zegt ie

1:50 pm

*does it say

1:50 pm

There is a warning above the tile Stats

1:50 pm

yes that is the one

1:52 pm

line 26 and line 128

1:52 pm

it *seems* to be working ok here

1:53 pm

line 128 is showing

1:53 pm

not here it isn't, sigh

1:53 pm

yes I am having the same problem

1:54 pm

Atalante i looked at all your Pictures and its Paradise beautyful ,and Peacefull

1:54 pm

I kept entering words and it said I already have them and then I refreshed and no word list yet , but have that warning message

1:55 pm

ty Yvo! :)

1:55 pm

same here, MaMaWa

1:55 pm

gently but firmly kicks the server into better behaviour

1:55 pm

And hi Babble friends : )

1:55 pm

your welcome sure would love to vacation there

1:56 pm

I see that it is being worked on by dr g

1:57 pm

OH no my tiles are all back to 0 : (

1:57 pm

yes it is, will probably be ok soon enough

1:58 pm

I hope, anyway... need to go to bed but would like to finish grid before that

1:58 pm

Oh well yesterdays grid went by to quickly, so this will just mean more time babbling LOL

1:59 pm

do we know for sure DrG is still working on this? last message he posted here makes me think he thinks all is well in babbler-land...

1:59 pm

Oh right , Sprite, its much later there

1:59 pm

you might be right, EvaN

1:59 pm

I dont know for sure eva

2:01 pm

Im going to try a restart vs rfresh brb

2:01 pm

ok, i just sent a message...

Hi, folks@

2:02 pm

wd eva

er, !, not @

2:03 pm

hey Takuma

2:03 pm

thanks EvaN

I'm not doing so hot on this grid -- I've entered a bunch of words, but still 95 left!

Not my day, I guess.

2:04 pm

takuma -- looks like the site is having technical difficulties -- may want to hold off on entering words for a bit....heh

2:04 pm

oh but it is, Takuma. You are being incredibly creative today. Making up lots of new words.

Hey wait a minute - if babble thinks I've already entered all the words, how come I haven't gotten fireworks?

2:04 pm

hi all...had NBT last night, but nothing today...we've got a glitch somewhere?

;)

2:05 pm

Oh, I see from the chog that we do...

yeah - I see the sql error below the grid

I'm going to go get my afternoon boggle fix at wordsplay for a bit. Back in a bit.

2:06 pm

refresh hasn't helped here either...

2:06 pm

I see it, too...oh well...guess I'll check email, etc...back later...

2:07 pm

am i the only one not seeing the SQL error? is it because im in firefox?

2:07 pm

entering new words or old makes no difference

2:07 pm

I get normal green and red messages when I enter new words though.

2:07 pm

I get normal green and red messages when I enter new words though.

2:07 pm

something is happening now

2:07 pm

yes, but that is from lickety's browser, yes?

2:08 pm

oh -- no, I see. They ARE being entered. just took a little bit.

2:08 pm

(dr g is on the case)

2:08 pm

no, in the original babble box

2:08 pm

okay, going to sit and have tea and such for a bit. back later.

2:08 pm

The "words" database got corrupted. It should be fine now.

2:08 pm

but it only shows the new valid words I enter

2:09 pm

yay DrG!

2:10 pm

yes, a refresh showed that all is ok now, thanks

2:10 pm

thanks DrG!

Thank you very much DrGod!

2:13 pm

and that is fireworks. All words I entered during the age of corruption have registered anyway.

2:14 pm

yeah I got it back too

2:15 pm

bye all, till tomorrow

2:15 pm

bye sprite good job

2:21 pm

thank you Dr_God seems ok now

2:32 pm

ty dr_god, bbl to finish

2:48 pm

Is that why I had to log in?

2:57 pm

Good evening everyone. Oh, missed saying hello to Sprite.

3:04 pm

hello babble friends....trying to finish up my last 7 whilst the cupcakes are in the oven....

3:06 pm

Hello Trif. multi tasking again :)

3:06 pm

its exhausting, but I soldier on :)

3:06 pm

LOl.

3:11 pm

I believe I may now be the world's expert on words that do NOT start with the letter n.

3:11 pm

I think you may to fight fo that award. :)

3:12 pm

'for'

3:12 pm

bring it non!!!

3:13 pm

:).

3:14 pm

I expect I have gotten significantly better at locating words that have no connection to the grid. phantom: ballistocardiograph

3:14 pm

Hello Babble :)

3:15 pm

Good day, elder

3:15 pm

have trouble saying that this time of the evening.:)

3:17 pm

3:17 pm

there is no "B" today babble....

3:18 pm

oh, kazzer, your icon is GREAT!!! love me some donkeys...

3:18 pm

I never let such minor technicalities get in the way of my delusions

3:19 pm

Babble, another poignant icon. Topic would be good in a discussion in a group.

3:19 pm

okay then, Dear BR....ramble on!

3:19 pm

hello Kazzer.

3:20 pm

3:33 pm

meow, kitty!

3:33 pm

I've got 7 d4

3:34 pm

and my undying devotion, oh great smugness!

3:34 pm

now I need to find your d5s!

3:35 pm

one is a plural ata and one is a weird 5

3:35 pm

the weird one was here before - starts with two cons, if that helps

3:35 pm

whoops - two of the d5s are plurals, sorry

3:35 pm

a weird one? what a surprise :) I have that one. I always don't find the easy ones!

3:36 pm

aha!

3:36 pm

di, di, di, di, do, do, dy -> the 4s

3:37 pm

looks like the seven dwarves or something....

3:37 pm

lol it does

3:38 pm

reminds me - at breakfast we started talking of lists of names, for some reason, and then trying to name diff ones - could NOT come up with the third musketeer for ages. it was so funny!

3:39 pm

oh thats funny when you simply can't think of something

3:40 pm

geesh!! finally! d's done

3:41 pm

yes, thank goodness none of thought of trying to name the dwarves, we would be there still!

3:42 pm

sleepy, sneezy, bashful, dopey, doc, happy, grumpy, and I didn't google!

3:42 pm

well done!!

3:43 pm

okay, I am just shamefully begging now - I have one n 4. is the other n word a 4 also?

3:43 pm

yep

3:43 pm

babblet. infamous babblet

3:43 pm

you are so patient, ata, bless

3:44 pm

yay me! n's nullified

3:44 pm

I really like clueing for people that don't demand / ask 50 times!!

3:44 pm

even though I'm not very good at it lol

3:44 pm

I want a clue.

3:44 pm

Give me a clue.

3:44 pm

Can I get another clue?

3:44 pm

no

3:45 pm

That clue wasn't very good.

3:45 pm

ugh, there is one babbler who drives me round the bend with the begging, dare I say????

3:45 pm

Haz!!!! La Spaghettina!!!

3:45 pm

Just the one?

3:45 pm

Good evening!

3:45 pm

I could have throttled one of them yesterday

3:45 pm

yes, just one, so far.

3:45 pm

i know, LIST already!

3:45 pm

Spaghettina? When did she turn Italian and stringy?

3:45 pm

there's 3 that are just impossible for memememememe clues

3:46 pm

just seeing if you'd notice!!

3:46 pm

hmmm. wondering now....

3:46 pm

How could you doubt me?

3:46 pm

Oh, the phone it has not stopped, getting in the way of my play and chat.So belated Hello's to Ata and Haz.

3:46 pm

lol *grins* La Spanghettina then

3:47 pm

hi elder :)

3:47 pm

spanghettina is a really, really cute name!

3:47 pm

Hello elder. Unless it's George on the line, just leave the phone to ring.

3:47 pm

OMG - your not talking about me, are you?

3:47 pm

Ata, it wasn't me I was not here yesterday. :)

3:47 pm

lmao no, soodlebum!

3:48 pm

Good tactic Haz, as I would not want to miss a call so important as that.

3:48 pm

No, Soodle, you've been here five minutes, it's others who should have progressed by now.

3:48 pm

the ole paranoia just kicking in there!!!

3:49 pm

oh soodle, don't worry, you'll get to know the - um - difficult people

3:49 pm

No, nor would I elder.

3:49 pm

TG!!! as for only being here 5 minutes........25 to go!!! Don't worry. I'll be begging soon!! LOL

3:50 pm

am I in trouble now?

3:50 pm

begging is fine. it's when you demand new clues cos the clues aren't good enough that you need to worry

3:50 pm

Five minutes in terms of babble membership, I mean.

3:50 pm

We could be waiting some time Haz. :)

3:50 pm

Okay, Ata, here's where you bow down and beg forgiveness from all the babblers who've been rendered paranoid.

3:50 pm

lol haz

3:51 pm

Patience, elder, I'm learning to be patient.

3:51 pm

I like paranoia. Keeps people in line

3:51 pm

lol..

3:51 pm

I have spent the day with my foil hat on

3:51 pm

hello jmc!!! how was your day, dear one?

3:51 pm

The thing is, the guilty parties have no clue (pardon the pun) that they're doing anything to annoy.

3:52 pm

other than the foil hat, of course...

3:52 pm

how is Spangle, Italian or not??

3:52 pm

Jmc for pity sake do not go near cables.

3:52 pm

I *know*. That's the crazy thing

3:52 pm

Therefore, if you're feeling guilty, it's not you;

3:52 pm

very nice ty i spent a couple of hours on the phone with Conscientious objectors

3:52 pm

Spangle, still Welsh is very well. In a stupor but well.

3:52 pm

pro or con, jmc?

3:52 pm

Haz, psychology coming to the fore.

3:53 pm

no cables in my 4th floor walk up elder so I think I am safeuntil I go to the baseball game

3:53 pm

Isn't it amazing, elder - and I never even studied it.

3:53 pm

awwww. poor hobbit is not in a stupor because she didn't have much of a walk today

3:53 pm

con-war trif -- it's what i do

3:53 pm

Morning everyone

3:53 pm

Amazing it is :)

3:53 pm

Yes, I heard you had rain today. We had unbroken sunshine. Who's smug now?

3:53 pm

are they expats, or just people trying to resolve service issues?

3:53 pm

hi lynxxx

3:54 pm

Good morning lynxxx.

3:54 pm

Hello Lynxxx. good to see you :)

3:54 pm

elder has turned into yoda!

3:54 pm

rain rain rain and rain. hobbit almost refused to get out of the door!

3:54 pm

pb trif -- but th4 are people in the military who have had a change of heart as is required by law

3:54 pm

poor hobbit

3:55 pm

And she calls herself a spaniel?

3:55 pm

oh, bummer. off I go....only 2 left to find, tho!

3:55 pm

bye trif

3:55 pm

I know. *facepalm*

3:55 pm

Trif ,Have I? I felt nothing.

3:56 pm

Bye Trif.

3:56 pm

Here comes the hail they promised. Yes, we have rain too!

3:56 pm

no, no elder - just to the PB!

3:56 pm

gotta find my last two t's....

3:56 pm

I've got 2 t's left too

3:56 pm

I'm feeling very smug now. We have better weather than England AND Australia.

3:57 pm

Trif, sorry everyone.. off go.

3:57 pm

so did you ever discover how much ecstasy to give a parrot, or whatever animal it was??

3:57 pm

I am afraid to ask --- but I could use some help with the n babblet

3:57 pm

Bye elder - nice to see you.

3:58 pm

na4/4 - na plus vowels

3:58 pm

yoda speak is confusing

3:58 pm

bye Elder

3:58 pm

haz, only better weather today. and I will be back once filled with what ever is in the PB.

3:58 pm

It was a wind-up although he mnaged to sound serious throughout.

3:58 pm

ty haz

3:59 pm

didn't he consider you might have something better to do? grrrr

3:59 pm

1 left!!!

3:59 pm

I'm getting more and more used to the notion that there are some peculiar people out there.

4:00 pm

just a bit *sigh*

4:00 pm

Not staying in there , hardly anything to eat and drink . Who has neglected to fill the PB is it FMitch ?

4:00 pm

FM, of course

4:00 pm

Bound to be, elder. She's to blame for most things.

4:00 pm

Ata, did you hear that she's into Flamenco dancing these days?

4:01 pm

The Greek tunics weren't exciting enough.

4:01 pm

is that a display for the half-naked men at the windows?

4:01 pm

gonna get a ride home bbl

4:01 pm

Bye, jmc.

4:01 pm

preemptive Whoo hoo for trif

4:02 pm

Bye, Jmc.

4:03 pm

I can't help thinking that it's a good thing she's on a ground floor. Think of the neighbours and all that stamping.

4:03 pm

Haz - saw The Wind That Shakes the Barley the other night. Good film of an awful period, learnt a lot

4:03 pm

You'll have to tell me more, lynxxx. I don't think I've heard of the film.

4:03 pm

she's not on a ground floor!

4:04 pm

Set in Ireland, 1920 - probably says enough

4:05 pm

It was a dreadful period, lynxxx, you're right. Civil war is ghastly.

4:05 pm

The film is set during the Irish Civil War - yet another period of Irish history which baffles belief!!

4:05 pm

FIREWORKS!!! WOOT WOOT

4:05 pm

yay trif!

4:05 pm

Congratulations, Trif!

4:06 pm

congrats Trif!

4:06 pm

Well done ! Trif.

4:06 pm

geez louise, that was a toughie! okay, off to frost the cupcakes - will leave extras in the PB!!! kisses!

4:06 pm

did FM tell you she was on the ground floor? Can't believe a word she says!

4:07 pm

tempting I may need to go back in PB.

4:07 pm

I don't know if she ever did say ground floor, I must just have assumed. Pity help the neighbours when she does go on one of her Flamenco runs!

4:07 pm

first floor!

4:09 pm

Whats the significance of ground / first floors

4:09 pm

It's better than being on the third floor. My daughter has always been on the third floor in any flat she has lived in. It makes for good exercise moving.

4:09 pm

I was on the 3rd floor when I lived in Bristol, with no lift. I was soooo fit!

4:09 pm

We were saying that FMitch has taken up Flamenco dancing - I thought it would be nicer for her neighbours if she were on the ground floor.

4:10 pm

Oh heck. I thought you were talking some strange Babble language. clearly your just talking about where people live!! Doh!!

4:10 pm

Now come on, Soodle. When have we ever talked in strange language or used codes or anything?

4:11 pm

the eagle flies tonight. yes? remember

4:11 pm

Well ladies, I must now depart.Enjoy you evening /day.

4:12 pm

Under the light of the silvery moon.

4:12 pm

bye Elder

4:12 pm

Bye elder - see you again.

4:12 pm

The defence rests....................

4:12 pm

Bye for now. Take care.

4:14 pm

So, who will we talk about now?

4:15 pm

hmmm

4:15 pm

how far are you from Soodlebum? distance wise?

4:15 pm

Let me work it out....

4:16 pm

Where exactly are you, Soodle - Co Meath?

4:16 pm

and is Soodle's Tesco as bad as yours? And does she have any movie stars originating from her town?

4:17 pm

She couldn't possibly have anybody as glamorous as LIam Neeson.

4:17 pm

And Tesco Ireland is suffering because lots of people are going north to shop. Hooray!

4:17 pm

she'd be hard pressed

4:18 pm

Well - as a matter of fact................. We DO have a tesco - about 10 miles away, and we DID have resident film stars (well one). Mel Gibson stayed in our town during the filming of Braveheart!!

4:18 pm

from yesterday, I share your distaste for Tesco. Some annoying person refused to let me do self-service checkout. I'm boycotting them

4:18 pm

that's a pretty good claim!

4:19 pm

Haz def. wins the movie star race

4:19 pm

Yes, but Mel Gibson didn't come from there, did he? Whereas Liam Neeson comes from here.

4:19 pm

it is hard to beat Liam

4:19 pm

Haz - I am one of those Cross-border shoppers. At least once a month. We are being ripped off BIG-TIME here in the Republic. So I patronise Tesco, Dunnes, Sainsburys, Asda, in fact, anywhere I will get a bargain!!

4:19 pm

Not that I'm into oneupmanship or anything.

4:20 pm

we go over to France for cross-border shopping

4:20 pm

I watched a programme recently Soodle about the whole move for shopping up north. I hadn't realised that it was (a) so prevalent and (b) so necessary.

4:20 pm

Haz.... Can I mention Pierce Brosnan? - Denizen of Navan, 6 miles from me. Not that I am a name-dropper or anything!! lol

4:21 pm

I have to ask. Soodle is there a story about why your tom is called Dora? were you all confused?

4:21 pm

You can mention Pierce Brosnan anytime. Such a handsome man.

4:21 pm

I dislike Pierce Brosnan immensely

4:21 pm

And James Nesbitt - does he merit a mention?

4:22 pm

Soodle you are close to me in Co. Cavan

4:22 pm

Yes, but Ata, it's undeniable that the man is decorative.

4:22 pm

The Irish are invading Babble!

4:23 pm

he gave his first wife divorce papers the day after she was told she had terminal cancer. decorative means nothing compared to that!

4:23 pm

My goodness. Poor Dora. Never thought that he would have so much interest from across the seas. Dora was not diagnosed as a boy when he was named. He was an exploring sort of cat - hence Dora the Explorer!!

4:23 pm

Silverback - living in Trim, but a mother from Mullagh in Cavan!!

4:24 pm

Mullagh is just up the road from me.And I know Trim Castle well.

4:24 pm

You lot are totally distracting me from my game here.

4:25 pm

Where in Cavan are u Silver?

4:25 pm

124 miles to where Soodle lives from here.

4:25 pm

Have we ever been accused of being distracting before, Ata?

4:25 pm

distracting? never!

4:26 pm

I think it's just an excuse. I think Soodle is just gearing herself up to start begging for clues.

4:26 pm

Silverback - upgrade to Pro. As far as I know, I am the only Paddy flying the flag. C'mon!!

4:26 pm

A small townland between Virginia and Cavan on the Bailieborough Road

4:26 pm

Now that you mention it Haz, whats the story on the ..... ha ha. Only joking

4:26 pm

We did have ZenMed who flew the Irish flag, but he hasn't been around for a while.

4:27 pm

thank goodness!

4:27 pm

He was Ata's biggest fan.

4:27 pm

omg. almost as a big a fan as JC

4:27 pm

With a name like ZenMed, he's probably up a tree, trying to stop a motorway being built!!

hi, all! hi haz!

4:28 pm

Hello TO!

4:28 pm

Now, will yiz all stop distracting me. 21 to go!! Tell them, Temple Owl!!

4:28 pm

ZenMed was so odd. He was so normal, then suddenly was soooo weird

ooh zenmed - i had forgotten him!

4:29 pm

He completely misunderstood the smug Ata thing. Completely.

4:29 pm

oh yes. he thought I meant it. I mean, I do, onviously, but ...

4:29 pm

21 to go? Sure, there's ages yet!

4:29 pm

If anyone asks me if I speak English,I`ll have to tell them only a small part after seeing some of the words in these puzzles.Lol.

4:30 pm

Jaysus, Haz - I hear the oul brogue comeing out in ye!!

4:30 pm

Obviously - you can't be a granddaughter of Einstein and not be a bit smug. It goes with the territory.

4:30 pm

absolutely

4:30 pm

to be sure, to be sure, begob and begorrah!!

4:31 pm

I was quoting from the ad for some beer or cider or something. Which ad was it, do you remember, Soodle?

i am here pricrastinating trimming the azalea hedge.

4:31 pm

And you're quite right to procrastinate, TO. Much good can come from procrastinating in fun company.

4:32 pm

oh yes. I haven't even looked for my last 2 for ages

i have checked the radar 6 times - the storms are predicted to go south. at least the ones with hail

4:32 pm

You've another 7 hours, Ata, you'll figure it out by then.

4:32 pm

Or we could give you clues!

:D

4:33 pm

Oh, poor azalea hedge - trimmed and then hailed upon! Can you do it to the poor plant?

4:33 pm

maybe. I refuse to list!

4:33 pm

oh hail, the azalea hedge!

4:34 pm

Would that others didn't follow in your footsteps.

4:34 pm

procrastinating..now that would be a nice word to find in the grid..lol

oh my - someone drwoned during this morning's storms!

4:34 pm

Haz, I think that ad was for whiskey, or beer, or cider, or somethin...

4:34 pm

How many points, zoozzoom?

4:34 pm

damn...i was just going to ask you tha same question..haha

they were awesome - rolled in like purple fog

4:34 pm

It was alcoholic, that's as much as I can remember. My favourite ad at the minute is the one for Magner's Pear Cider where they're trying to convince the factory workers that pear cider is possible.

4:35 pm

As I have said before here, they used to say Procrastination is the thief of time. they are wrong. Babble is!!

4:35 pm

sorry to hear that TO..not nice

4:35 pm

good evening everyone ... pleasecan you get me out of a hole and give me a clue for the di6/30 and di7/44,... they have been driving me mad for ages.

4:35 pm

Are the storms unusual for this time of the year, TO?

4:35 pm

Have you tasted it? Its awful - sugar in a bottle!!

4:35 pm

di6/30 - di plus the ending of a fruit that begins kum.

4:36 pm

hello mo

no. but i have never seen them literally roll in like this. fortunately i could hear them in the ditance, constant thumder, as i arrived at work, dodged them during the commute

4:36 pm

No, haven't tasted it, Soodle. You're not recommending it, obviously!

4:36 pm

ty Haz... working on that.

4:36 pm

And DI 7/44 the plural of what Haz clued you

4:36 pm

It sounds scary, TO. Look after yourself.

4:37 pm

Guess where I bought it? - Sainsburys Newry!!

just finished getting a quote to trim tress and possibly remove one of them

LOL TREES tho tresses need trimming!

4:38 pm

Don't be letting any tree surgeons anywhere near your tresses.

4:38 pm

especially not with chainsaws

4:38 pm

We call tress trimmers 'hairdressers' here...lol

4:38 pm

You should talk to FM, TO. She's the expert on men with chainsaws.

tee hee. i think wew were all normal when we started here.... ;)

4:39 pm

OH Temple Owl, Pedantic Pats abound tonite!!

4:39 pm

We ARE normal, TO. It's the other people who are odd.

those who fancy themselves hairdressers?? ;D

4:40 pm

Don't let Ata's husband anywhere near your hair either. He's lethal.

4:40 pm

lmao

as we well know lOL

4:41 pm

I have a wicked joke about a hairdresser. Wd take too long to tell it here, though! :(

aw, bad bad workplace that denies me the stress releving properties of a good babble

4:41 pm

Very bad workplace. What can they be thinking?

4:42 pm

I mean, how can finding 650 words a day possibly be construed as a distraction or a waste of work time?

i know my boss is sad, she loved catching me

4:42 pm

Shortsighted, that's what they are.

4:42 pm

650, wouldnt that be nice

well if you put it that way...they could unblock at lunch

4:43 pm

Wouldn't it? I feel as though we've been rationed lately.

4:43 pm

Do we need to get a campaign going, TO? Liberty at Lunch, that kind of thing.

4:43 pm

thank you Haz and soodlebum ... eventually got them ... so slow tonight (must be the wine!!!) AND FIREWORKS

yay mo!

4:44 pm

Congratulations mo!

4:44 pm

'Don't take liberties with my liberty!'

4:44 pm

firebirds!

4:44 pm

Way to go MO - Fireworks, AND all those distractions. My hat is off to you

4:45 pm

Congratulations Ata! And no clues asked for.

naw, i will be asking for reassignment soon, so it's better to start on a good foot

4:45 pm

tyvm thought I'd never get there!!!

yay ata!!!

4:45 pm

I hope you can get it changed, TO, it would be a shame if you weren't around at all during the day.

4:46 pm

How are you going, Soodle? Still distracted?

it's not changinng, haz.

i'll just have to call out sick more

4:46 pm

Onto 3 mgs of valium now

4:47 pm

Especially on 650 grid days, TO.

4:48 pm

And fading fast..... my son crashed his car tonight. Nobody hurt, but his car seems to be a write off. Oh my!!

sorry to hear that, soodle.

4:48 pm

Nasty, Soodle. I'm sure he's shaken up, even if not hurt.

4:49 pm

Soodlebum... sorry to hear that, but glad your son is ok.

4:49 pm

Do you want a push to finish or has your enthusiasm faded?

4:49 pm

Oh. He is 18 and thinks he is invincible. It was the kick up the ass he needed. Thanks be to God nobody was hurt. Mangled metal can be replaced.

4:50 pm

An all too familiar story, sadly. The statistics for young male drivers are horrifying - no wonder the insurance premiums are through the roof.

4:51 pm

How right you are Haz. And no amount of talking could teach him the lesson he learnt tonight.

4:52 pm

As I said, thanks be nobody was hurt.

4:52 pm

yes, lucky he learnt it without a human cost

4:52 pm

I think you're right in saying that they think they're invincible at that age and much better drivers than they really are.

4:52 pm

teenagers cannot seem to see the dangers.

4:53 pm

I know it would be impossible to do it, but speed governors on cars driven by people under 25 might be a good idea.

4:53 pm

I'm actually very glad I only recently learned how to drive, because I know at 17 I wasn't mature enough to really understand

4:54 pm

They need something to make them slow down!

4:54 pm

they do!

4:54 pm

I agree wholeheartedly.

4:54 pm

Couldn't agree more Haz. And when their buddies are with them, they egg each other on, and its no wonder fatalities occur.

we just had a pedestrian killed by drag racing cars, across a 12 lane boulevard

4:56 pm

That's horrible, TO. To be innocently walking along and killed like that is dreadful.

drag racing is a big thing on certain roads.

4:56 pm

After the accident tonite, I said to my son...'this is the damage done to the cars. Imagine that damage inflicted on a person', and he went pale, and started to shake. I hope to God the message went home tonite.

4:57 pm

We do have a system here where people have to display R plates for a year after they pass their test, and they're restricted to 45mph. It helps to an extent but too many ignore it.

4:57 pm

I really hope so Soodle.

4:58 pm

Soodle, I hope he's learned his lesson, and thank goodness it wasn't worse.

we have junior licenses from 16 to 18 in this statee they cannot dirve after dark wihtout an adult

4:58 pm

sorry for monopolising the chat tonight. I

4:58 pm

'

4:58 pm

'

4:58 pm

Just still a bit rattled. Onwards and upwards :)

4:58 pm

You haven't been, Soodle.

4:58 pm

We've been having a conversation.

but of course they do. and it is the worst when they have others in the car, the accident rate rises dramatically

4:59 pm

So, can I start begging now?

4:59 pm

Yes, Soodle, start begging and don't forget to tell Ata if her clues are no use. She loves that.

and i have not one y word :(

4:59 pm

It's the challenge she craves.

5:00 pm

Will do, Haz, will do!!!

5:00 pm

!!!!

5:00 pm

Look to the Himalayas, TO.

5:00 pm

all my clues are rubbish lol

5:00 pm

TO ... dont forget the 'snowman'

5:00 pm

And to the insulting terms for Jews as well.

ty all, i got them all!

5:01 pm

See? That's cooperation, babble style!

5:01 pm

wow ... that was quick!!!

5:01 pm

TO is a very satisfactory cluee.

btw i was playing wordrampage last night and discoverd i have been pkaying against speedfreak for a while without realizing it!

5:02 pm

And who was quicker?

5:02 pm

so it seems. lol.

5:02 pm

Or is it not timed?

we swapped first place

5:03 pm

Good to see that babblers are leading the way in other word games.

5:03 pm

uste

i must play 5x5 too slow for 4x4..severl of us went the other night after small grid and we dazzled 'em :)

5:04 pm

The u differs in only one letter from the Salt Lake City state.

5:04 pm

Silverback - u going to upgrade? Its very easy. I dont evenhave a credit card, and I got some 3V vouchers. I think it cost about €6.

5:04 pm

Excellent! The other players were probably muttering under their breath about cheaters and not real words.

5:04 pm

I love Salt Lake City

5:05 pm

I managed to get the needlecase and tsadi and tsade in scramble last night. I loved that

welll haz...i have done that myself at times. some are unbelieveable. and there are boggle solvers out there

5:05 pm

hello babbleonia

hello doren!

5:06 pm

hello Dorens.

5:06 pm

I think I will upgrade sometime Soodle.

5:06 pm

hi dorens

5:06 pm

Goodness. You'd think people would have better things to do than sit and solve word puzzles all day. (Written and underlined in ironic font)

5:06 pm

Hello Dorens

5:06 pm

good idea silverback... well worth it.

5:06 pm

oooo Haz has graduated from sarcastic to ironic

omg brb i need to turn the news off before i have a fit. could they find any more bad news?

5:07 pm

they do interchange nicely... she can switch back and forth, don't you think?

5:07 pm

Yes. I took a course and am fully qualified now.

5:07 pm

don't know owl, haven't listened in days

5:07 pm

and she is up late too!!! lol.

spoiled kids with too much vandalizing

5:08 pm

I know, the nurses will be coming soon to give me my happy pills and put me to bed.

5:08 pm

owl ever hear of the book lost ravioli recipes of hoboken?

5:08 pm

why are we up late, Haz?

"senior prank" my derrierre

doren i beleive i have! if i come over will you cook for me? ;)

5:08 pm

Oooh Haz, any chance of a loan of a few happy pills? Peeeleeeelsssseee

5:08 pm

We aren't up THAT late! I just felt like saying hello to the evening shift.

5:09 pm

not particularly good book, woman's quests for old family recipes, etc, etc. but she did live in Hackensack and go to st. Joseph's church there. so my frivolous book group chose it today and I am making the spinach torta from the book right now

5:09 pm

Owl you are to kind I think you killed me in wordrampage .....now can I have a clue for the 9 letter word

5:09 pm

I'm officially waiting for husband to get home, but I think I';ll just go to bed

5:09 pm

These are special happy pills, Soodle, they're pretty strong.

5:09 pm

i'll make you the spinach torta (if it turns out to be good) if you make her handrolled ravioli!

no spinach. no spinach, ever.

5:09 pm

nice to see you Haz on the 'evening shift'

5:09 pm

nice seeing you up this late ata and haz

yes i for one am thrilled since i will never ever see you again *wails*

5:10 pm

se9 - descriptive of one who leads a rebellion, adjective ending to rhyme with one who won't walk under a ladder.

5:10 pm

Its the eletrifying company that has them still up at this hour!!!

5:10 pm

Oh TO! You'll set me off wailing as well!

5:10 pm

ty haz. needed that one

5:11 pm

why is owl wailing?

5:11 pm

You're welcome, Dorens.

5:11 pm

Because her nasty work won't let her babble any more.

5:12 pm

Either that, or Ata's husband has cut her hair and she's just looked in the mirror.

5:12 pm

what!!! That is unthinkable!

doren what kind of ravioli? my family wanted to be so american they NEVER made that stuff

5:12 pm

that is funny. honestly owl, you're lucky you got away with that racket this long. (i of course, have figured out that they have "un"censored babble now, but I just don't want to get caught .. i check in during my lunch a bit and that's it.. no chat)

5:13 pm

It's that sort of treatment that got the Tolpuddle Martyrs up in arms.

5:13 pm

I would NEVER let husbajnd do that!!!

5:13 pm

thanks haz took a little monkeying but got it

yes, i suppose i am.

5:13 pm

I would hope not, Ata.

5:13 pm

You're welcome, speedfreak.

5:13 pm

her family is from liguria... delicious looking recipes... all sorts. pansotti with walnut sauce appeals to me

what are they stuffed with?

5:14 pm

he hates my hair anyway, he wouldn't go near it!

5:14 pm

cheese.. cheese with herbs, meat, meat with cheese, meat cooked with wine & cheese, you name it

5:15 pm

how can a husband hate hair?

5:15 pm

because I have it as I want it, not how he wants tit

5:15 pm

it!

well when i get a real job/reassignment i won'thave time to babble anyway, except today it wsa too stormy to walk at lunch and i did miss it...all games are blocked, i can get on merriam -webster.com but cannot get the game of the day

5:16 pm

I must just make a note of that little typo. FM will be interested.

ATA LOL

5:16 pm

:D

5:17 pm

Are your cheeks flaming just a tad?

5:17 pm

nah, too tired!

5:18 pm

That's probably what caused the typo in the first place.

5:18 pm

Soodle its done,the upgrade.

games are blocked because they require active-esx and java and present a security risk to the system

5:18 pm

Well done, Silverback. You need to log out and back in again, or maybe you've done that already?

5:18 pm

I really should go to bed¬!

access to you tube and my space, hotmail and gmail are also blocked

5:19 pm

welcome to the land of the living Silverback!!

5:19 pm

Soodle should get some commission from Dr-G for that. Some players have resisted going pro for ages but you caved right in. You'll not regret it, Silverback.

have been since the new system came in a couple of years ago. some folks go to great lengths to get mai inclduing going in through uk hotmail, so all off shore sites were blocked

5:20 pm

Right, I'm going to head off as well. Good to speak to lots of you and see you (or some of you) tomorrow.

5:20 pm

Right, I'm going to head off as well. Good to speak to lots of you and see you (or some of you) tomorrow.

5:20 pm

5:22 pm

I must be off too .... Goodnight all.

good night, mo.

5:23 pm

allrightie... now that i'm off the phone, everyone is going? bye... (why can't you chew owl?)

5:23 pm

Soodle u still there

root canal was finished, which is why i am here early

5:24 pm

oooh.. good excuse for fattening soup... lobster bisque or such

had tree trimmers out for estimate since i was home early, so it is worth it

must decide re front tree, trim or remove?

5:24 pm

tree trimming can be so expensive

5:25 pm

never remove a tree unless you absolutely need to.. the earth loves its trees

tell me about it!it's ugly, cheap builder grade and misshapen. would rather have a lovely kousa dogwood

5:26 pm

Silver - sorry, Ive just got back . I'm here now

5:26 pm

oh, i see your point. what is it a maple?

bakc tulip poplar just needs trim, and they will remove dwarf dead cherry free

no, ash.

5:27 pm

congrats soodle... cute picture

soodle that is too cute

5:28 pm

Ta Dorens, but why u congratulating me? I Still have 19 2 go

5:28 pm

Evening all. I woke up this morning wearing a sequinned halter top (not mine) with my laptop playing "You Spin Me Round" on repeat. I never thought the day would come where I'd turn to babble for normality but here it is.

5:28 pm

Aha. The Pic. Meet Dora. The gender challenged tom-cat!! lol

5:29 pm

did you just go pro? oh, goodness, i think that was silver? sorry, i a not keeping up well am I?

hi nancy boy

5:29 pm

Hi, Temple :) how's life?

it's good! and you?

5:30 pm

sorry nancy, sounds rough

5:30 pm

Dorens..Yes. I am a pro virgin.. (unlike nancy boy, it seems...lol)

5:30 pm

ok then, congrats on going pro. good move

5:30 pm

Sorry Nance!!!

5:31 pm

Not as rough as it just became, Dorens. I have discovered lyrics to the aforementioned song tattooed VERY high on the back of my thigh. Come hold my hands in the struggle to remember...!

5:32 pm

Believe it or not, it took some doing, going pro. I'm not an owner of a credit card,so it wasn't easy. But worth it!!

5:32 pm

Thanks Soodle, though to some extent I might have deserved it :D are you a new girl? You have that new babbler smell, mmm...

5:33 pm

Easy now, Nancy...........

5:33 pm

can't get too involved in your struggle nance... 7 words left and i'm due at a book group meeting soon... but do wish you all the best

ok so i have not trimmed the hedges...time to ferret out a gummable dinner. doren, the book might note be good but the food will be yummy!

5:34 pm

Wow, that is one interesting cat, Soodle! That's adorable.

5:34 pm

Nance, meet Dora!!

5:35 pm

indeed owl... good luck ... hope dinner tastes good and is soft at the same time

5:35 pm

(this spinach torta is good, btw... i made a smaller dish for myself to taste before bringing it and i love it)

i bet your torta would make a spinack lover of me! let me know how it turns out.

5:36 pm

Is there a good story behind him/her, Soodle? ;)

how is it a torta? pastry or pasta?

5:38 pm

Soodle I have updated my account,click on my mirror image.

5:39 pm

Nance. My life is one long story. If you saw it on Eastenders, you'd say 'Huh - exaggeration@. I am going to write a book soon - and all my adventures will be revealed

ok all - catch the last 16 later! happy babbling! *poof*

5:39 pm

ridiculous... actually neither... mix 8 eggs, add to 8 ox beaten cream cheese, s, p, (i added nutmeg), parsley (i didn't have, added chives instead), then mix half of that mixture into 4 frozen defrosted, drained boxes of chopped frozen spinach. olive oil in a baking dish, spread the spinach, spread the other on top and bake.

can i unpoof?

5:40 pm

Way-hey................ Another Irish Flag. Silverback, - a hundred thousand welcomes!!!

5:40 pm

absolutely

my god how could it be anything but good!!!!

5:41 pm

awfully easy really. hardest part is squeezing water out of spinach!

and it sounds gummable, too! ;)

5:41 pm

actually it is... too bad you're not closer

5:41 pm

Oh Soodle, that sounds like a great idea! If it's as wild as you say I'm sure there'll be a few fist-fights in the bookshops

hey hope you did not have the awful storms we did

5:42 pm

last night and this morning! absolutely. beautiful lightning on my way to school this morning

5:42 pm

owl do you have the last q word?

5:42 pm

Wild, wet and (i wish I could think of another W word) wistful!!!!!

i never saw anything like this morning, they actually rolled in in a purple grey fog

5:43 pm

5:43 pm

Silverback - come back and talk to me!

5:43 pm

hello babblers!!

11:18 pm

hi madi

11:20 pm

hi guys...may I help someone while Joey decides whether he'll play with Precious or want his late walk?

11:21 pm

how is everyone?

11:21 pm

hi pav I'm done but it's nice to see your furry children can't make up their minds either

11:22 pm

and Prec doesn't know when to eat...sometimes with Joey other times when we 're asleep...or not at all...

11:22 pm

fine thank you madi how are you?

11:23 pm

Hi Madi!

11:23 pm

I'm fine, thanks. I've missed babble so...

11:23 pm

hi PAV!

11:23 pm

do they have their own places to eat or do they eat side by side

11:24 pm

I have to do laundry and get the house ready for my trip...so I may actually play tonight

11:24 pm

we've missed you too

11:24 pm

ooh pav getting close isn't it?

11:24 pm

they should eat si4 by si4...and sometimes they do, and other times they switch and eat from the other's bowl..

11:25 pm

so maybe when she eats alone she just wants to have privacy

11:25 pm

should I got sit in the PB?

11:26 pm

nah, it's late. have a cookie from the PB instead

11:26 pm

we're done West...but giving away words might be suspect...< hour to go...if they haven't found them yet, they'll be thankful...

11:27 pm

thanks madi and pav probably could use a more profound word

11:27 pm

and when we have our late walk, it's usually just Joey and I because he'd like his privacy...!

11:28 pm

that really do have their own personalities

11:28 pm

I mean they

11:28 pm

understated!

11:29 pm

what's going on with your trip I thought your poopies were staying with a friend

11:30 pm

sometimes they amaze me and I wonder if I had anything to do with it, or if it's just themselves..I've had Joey 3 of his 4 years and Precious just as long if not more..

11:31 pm

well I know they are well loved and they do too

11:31 pm

the poopies are going to their sitter's, and my friends are picking me up...although, I'm not holding my breath...just crossing fingers and taking in the "good luck" and hope that pays...

11:32 pm

you mentioned getting your house ready that's why I thought you were having someone come in

11:32 pm

I worry just a bit in case the sitters are completely smitten and decide they want them for themselves...

11:32 pm

awww

11:32 pm

I hate coming home to a messy house is all...and it's all ME!

11:32 pm

that's a good thing to worry about

11:33 pm

I know what you mean about the house

11:33 pm

They are cute Pav- what tyoe are th4?

11:34 pm

tomorrow I'll wash their linens...blankets, throws...get the doggie bag (suitcase ) ready, etc...Lhasa Apsos/human wanna be's

11:34 pm

I have a schmauzer/human

can i get a clue for the io6/21 plz?

11:35 pm

don't forget to leave something with your scent on it

11:35 pm

* oops! Schnauzer

11:35 pm

like what they do to salt without the z Sudoku

thank you

11:35 pm

my first was a min schnauzer...io6 to make something salty...

11:36 pm

I just love all dogs Pav. THis is our 2nd schnauzer but I have had beagles, mutts, weimeraniers, etc

11:36 pm

hello DR and Sudo

11:36 pm

I had him 5 years before he was hit with Valley Fever, degenerative spores weakening the muscles and bones...CH. Quivera's Shadow Dancemaster...aka Disco..

11:37 pm

Hi Westie!

11:37 pm

Ours had pancreatitis and diabetes. When she went blind, I could not handle it anymore

11:37 pm

so sorry pav it's hard to lose a friend

11:38 pm

you too DR

11:38 pm

A champion - must have been beautiful

11:38 pm

thank you Westie

11:39 pm

Westie- we both picked SNow White...

11:39 pm

yep...and the horrorscope that day said not to venture into the unknown...I coulnd't NOT lay with him as the meds were given to finally let him/us rest..best thing for me and it took years before I would want another...

11:40 pm

ooh we did I loved that song

11:40 pm

he was a lucky pup to have you pav

11:40 pm

I understand that PAv! The one we have now is an illegal alien I think

11:41 pm

HE came with a tail, undocked ears and spanish vet records but he is healthy and Smart!

11:41 pm

we were not going to breed or show so it did not matter

11:41 pm

fortunately these can't be deported!!

11:41 pm

LOL !

11:42 pm

a Spanish speaking Schnauzer

11:42 pm

with a german name no less

11:42 pm

what do you call him?

11:42 pm

Schmutz- I guess technically it is yiddish...

11:43 pm

lol good name

11:43 pm

thanks Westie- it fits him

11:43 pm

that's how I acquired Disco - promised no breeding and paid all vet bills...he attacked his daddy, who was shown at Westminster...so the breeder had little choice, and I was gifted a pup for my birthday, and viola!...the poopies are learning SPanish from me...

11:45 pm

pav did they ever figure out why he attacked?

11:45 pm

Wow- interesting story Pav. HE was lucky to have you and vice versa

11:46 pm

territorial rights issue...he was too assertive and papa wasn't ...th4 weren't sure if he'd take to a male as he'd only been handled by fems...

11:47 pm

Disco LOVED approaching women, esp those who looked like his breeder...guys, not so much...

11:47 pm

and you never had any trouble?

11:48 pm

and now Joey LOVES approaching kids and people, much to my dismay...and Precious tears into him when we return home..."Thou Shalt Not engage in conversations with other humans! We're guard dogs!"

11:48 pm

Disco snapped ONCE when I was pulling his plate of food from him, and never after that...

11:48 pm

lol I can just see that

11:49 pm

Precious telling Joey off that is

11:50 pm

My mom hsa 2 maltipoo's and the female is way more agressive than the male

11:50 pm

happens qu5 frequently...Joey is a people-dog, whereas Prec is a true Lhasa

11:50 pm

I imagine Lola does the same thing to Harley

11:51 pm

and she's the alpha. so what ever she wants she gets...I'm trained and trainable..!

11:51 pm

ROFL! I can so relate!

11:51 pm

(not that I'm advertising!)...

11:52 pm

Joey rests by my feet, whereas Prec lays between me and the door...she

11:53 pm

she's the barker...

11:53 pm

brb- need some water

11:53 pm

you had her first?

11:55 pm

yep...and in the pic(s) she's the smaller...CHristmas gift 2004, post CHristmas gift is the hairline hip fracture when I fell chasing her in the wetness around a tree...

11:56 pm

it flares up occasionally, like the past few days...the Chiro hasn't been able to completely deal with it...

11:56 pm

yikes!!

11:56 pm

OMG! I can relate to that too! I tripped over a neighbor's doxie and broke my knee!

11:57 pm

only hurts going UP stairs

11:57 pm

I havenever met anyone else who got hurt like that!

11:58 pm

I have truly enjoyed this conversation

11:58 pm

DR how was your weather today our oldest granddaughter flew to SD from Boston today

11:58 pm
