YVW Josh

I believe in J - it's a very good letter! :)
re7 x 2
i beg your pardon pav?
what is very funny?
Your remark that the j4.19 word is a belief in J.
I tend to agree, JC -- G is good too ;)
i had put a tray of frozen pain au chooclat atop the fridge to thaw
I didn't miss that . . . ;)
we could have a theme...your favourite letter...
the cats were trying to climeth fridge to get to them!
G, Jilli?
so i closed the croissant in a bathroom to thaw
Gillian, JC
I said I think it "could" describe you...haven't found the second re8 55 just yet..
my daughter's favorite pastry!
that might not have been me, JC - i still don't know what you're referring to
A croissant, in a bathroom?
I only have 54 words i cant find anything else i am out POOF
DC I think I won't have dessert at your house for a while

oh? but I only have 35 words...
and of course the top dogs get the grease
Sure, rolin - which song?
ruru, you're amazing!
LOL, mrp!

You sing it, rolin - and I'll just go 'la la la' in the background, in a high falsetto. :P

Me, mrp? Hmmm . . . I meant for my cat! That melon rind would really go with her colouring nicely.
yes westie
c'mon, can't help it the icon theme is in the grid!
what is your news?
oh shucks -- not fair having the theme word in the grid
hi all
i don't have any to think of..
rolin I thought you were all going to Israel together

You think my cat looks like a dog, mrp?
I imagine it's not too expensive from London to Israel rolin?
thank god he doesn't ad5 beavers
only from the little iddy biddy pic... I thought that was a cat sitting next to the dog... which is why I thought ma5 would suit the colouring!
rur, some of us are bilingual
No, westford - there are photos of her in my blog, that isn't transferred overto the MS page yet. One can only post one picture at a time on here, though.
youd be surprised just....it was more than i thought it would be.... i guess im spoilt with the cheap air flights to europe...
Oh, no mrp - that's the new puppy, who joined our little family last month. :)
to Europe? aren't you European? or least live in Europe
JC there's flicker
to get the best price..we are leaving at 10pm... 4 hour flight to arrive in israel 5am their time..we're gonna be knackered the first day
after checking your profile pic, I see it isn't a cat but a woof!
Yes, westford - but I haven't had time to get half of what I want to post put on there yet - been busy!
yes, JC -- please put stuff in flickr!
im in england just.....
That's right, mrp . . . more like a 'yip' for now, though.
well I sure hope you enjoy! :) Yes I know I read your profile but isn't GB considered European"
I should study flicker
I have stuff in Flickr, Jilli.

Amen, rolin! ;)
So to what continent do you belong? lol
Haha, JC to the PB!

Hi DC! I trust all is well in the land?
pav are you under the weather?
Oh I know xenophobia...after all I live in Quebec as a maud dit englais
I could if that actually worked for me, Jilli - which unfortunately, it does not. Even Dr. God couldn't figure out why not . . .
aside from the train collision on the metro, all's well here. it's even been cool - low 80s
maudit anglaise (F)
maud dit englais = goddamn english (person)
lol just
seain was it computers? do they know?
We were e-mailing back and forth, trying to work out why it won't. Changed all the settings so it should have, and it still wouldn't - remember that, Seain?
oooh its 7am... i must get my day started.... didnt get far into the grid...but its been lovely to chat...
"under the weather"...hmmm? nope...we've been in the hudnred during the day and cooler * at night....still waiting to see if I'm working after next Tuesday...
Yes, I must run also . . .

Why?
I like compound words best
expensive on parts there ru but I guess you prob know that
nice
((( :) ))))
haven't they gone out of business?
hope you know the brake from the accelerator, ruru
I don't think so..
this one goes so fast I don't have to stop jilli
all G***an cars are expensive to repair parts and labour
they are sweet ruru very
errrrm....that doen't make any more sense than this chog
It is the R 8
had a few VW's in my day which I loved but not fun bills to pay
we just got our excise tax bill and our 2003 Toyota Camry is still values at 10K
sigh...err... did I miss something there?
valued*
nice westie...I have a
'99 camry with only 73,000 KM's on it
they last just
that would be less than 50k miles..
not seeing that di 7 and 8
gonna keep it til it dies
so are we though I'd like a truck
I love my '04 Corolla LE ("Baby Lexus")
ruru is the audi you might be getting an re8?
it is the sporty one..
got it!!
I think it is re 8
I think that would describe you too
ooh I am not going there
and I love having my big roomy Chrysler Pacifica with the heated leather seats! in AZ!!!
phant -- orgasm (thought that would get your attention)
I meant that in the nicest way
ouch pav
well if I had the re8 I might even know what you're talking about
that's small potatoes in this grid jilli lol
me too, just
a lawbreaker
with a nice personality
but I did get the di7/8 even though I've never ever seen these words before
are there more than two re8s?
(obviously i haven't gone to bed yet)
would you clue them slightly just?
tywest :)
actually, they came in handy right after I picked it up, and the temps dropped to the 50's here in AZ...and then when I went to pick up mom and sis to move them from MN to NM a month later...since then ..not so much...
do you have ac pav?
Well, we had Ford Econolines to pull our 23' Prowler to the dog shows
qt I only have 1 re8
That word got Julian's attention, Jilli, and he's not even here!
well pav here in the snowiest cold city of the great white north....only top notch cars come with heated seats...
with 2 Danes in crates in the back
me too only 1 re8
di 7... a di- of ice cream + opp of yes + one of the 3 articles (and plural)
2nd like the first, different vowel ending west
and the big and roomy comes in handy with the poopies, who can't seem to sit in the sa4 seat together..and yes, we have AC
and ruru
our friends had a hot seat saab it was glorious
as usual, dc, lol!
did someone say there is an me 7 and me 8?
indeed so

reading that constitution again pav?
I have the past tense re 7/40; is there a second re 7?

yw
i can't get that last t in the top corner

yes, there is an me 7/48 and me 8/65
no worries...our fiscal year ends June 30, so they say if the Repub gov doesn't sign a bill passed by the Repub legislature by then, we'll shut down, 'cept for necessary functions...never mind that our payroll system says we're already working with next year's money to begin with...twits!
froggy type
I see Federal Govt does that all the time
I'm one of those that should the right person de4 it necessary for me to show up, I must...after all, I do actually work and not just sit there and look pretty...!!
but no one seems to notice either of those characteristics!!!
did everyone find the asian building right away? i was pretty proud of that one
makes you want to spit
I did and good for you it was calming
thanks, ge4!
:) yw
every time I try the me I keep seeing our granddaughter's name
asian building...is that in english?...still monkeying...
so in honour of our "fete nationale" (demain) tomorrow, I am making baby back ribs with my own beer bbq sauce and corn on the cob on the bbq.....

dee it's to4/5
will you post the bbq sauce in your profile?
hello all
quelle fete nationale? i'm unfamiliar with canadian holidays
ice cream cake and quebec strawbs for dessert
we have to go back to Maine to finish up for the renters
The province of Quebec (mostly French speaking) celebrate the 24th of June as their special holiday germer
Just...I'll bring the poopies for the bones....no ice cream for moi...
ok extra strawbs
for you
you lactose intolerant?
and Quebec isn't too far from Detroit, yes?, I can stop over and see my family!
fresh local strawberries are so divine!
ehhh...by car or plane pav?
pa 6 x 2
lactose intolerant is an understatement...we'll be crusing over in the Pacifica...
Pav, Ontario is near Detroit -- Quebec is north of NY, VT
they so are jilli....sorry to say but the calif berries look great but taste like raw
potatoes
calif "strawberries" are cardboard -- big and tasteless
I only studied 'merican geography.....sorry...
florida strawbs are much better than calif for imports but local are divine
amercians only seems to study america
and I mean their part of america
vous me fairez tres faime...haha my french is horrible. all this talk of food is making me hungry!
aww c'mon pav...we're "merican" too...North American and we gotta stick together us huge landwise democratic nations in this nasty world of today
it's true jilli, we're a very egocentric country, it's very annoying
you got the people, we got the land and natural resources...so ....which is worth more or are the 2 equal with what they bring to the table?
I puree strawberries anywhoo for my cheesecakes...I actually tested out of North AMerican history before my freshmen year at Mich State...I began my social studies requirement with a junior level poli-sci class
I get so annoyed at US weather maps which stop at the Canadian border as if it were Terra Incognita
we took your trees after the Chicago fire
me too jilli...so know what you mean
that egocentricity is getting dangerous
well I think it has abated somewhat after 911
when were you at Mich State pav?
yeah, i took the most recent election as a very hopeful sign
Alas... I don't think I'd be able to go after all..I just realised I'd have to have some sort of document that tells the world I'm an "American" in order to get back home....
so did we!
my passport is valid for a bit longer. can i come visit?
but know this you yanks.....as individuals....you're the best~! but your propaganda machine could use a toning down ( a great down)
my sil wants to come visit but she doesn't have a passport yet
Get a passport, fer hevvin's sake! I've had one all my life so I can go anywhere reasonable
i work at a chinese bistro and the fortune cookies keep telling me to travel. but they don't give me any money to pay for the trip.
I graduated HS in '79, started MSU on a 4-yr scholarship, with stipend that fall, and by Dec made plans to transfer to NM...MSU business school was on academic probation, they didn't want me to graduate from an un-accredited institution
that's what I told her we've always had them too
easy there just, plenty of us hate the machine as much as (or more than!) outsiders
then you wouldn't have known our cousin's husband he taught in the music department
I think Canada should absorb the USA ;)
we're struggling thanks to Uncle George
propaganda...which is why I removed my country flag..not that I'm un-AMerican, I just can't fully explain my politics, and I've been told this is not the forum...
sounds like you've been listening to canadian propaganda jilli ;)
oh jilli that would not be good you'd soon regret it
we'd give you a bellyache
I just love the whole lot
it's friendly pav but I see your point
nbt
i'm not unamerican...but i do think i'd be happier living in europe
wtg dee!!!
wtg dee what was your final one?
ty ... finding this one tough
nbt =
does the me7/8 start with a number prefix?
I haven't lived in Europe -- just England's gren and pleasant land (long ago)
gj qt
no, i don't know what it means haha
I've met DHS Sec Janet Napolitano's dad when I work-studied at one of the cancer labs at UNM...then briefly worked for Ms. Janet when she was our Attorney General...and then she fired me when I became ill and couldn't do my job...I blame her lackies for not caring enough to see me through...she has bad choices in subordinates..and 5 months later I got back into state service and have been there for a bit over 6 years...
*green (and I see I can't use the word for mistakes on the keyboard)
we have lived there off and on for short periods of time and I loved it
very large west
I have nothing but love for my american cousins germeric...don't take me wrong and I truly mean that
nothing but love? that makes one of us
we all basically want the same things....to live and let live...
i have some other feelings for my fellow americans sometimes
pav doesn't sound like the best of experiences
which is why I'm "shopping" online in this chat for a new country....
germeric -- if you scroll down my bio you'll see I can myself a britamericanadian
I'm talking as a people, not as individuals...
don't throw the baby out with the bath water
what does nbt mean?
No Blank Tiles
i get it now :)
you have no blank tiles at least one word found from each
there are plenty of sh**heads in every country, culture, whatever...but our common values are of peace, liberty and happiness...I mean what else is there in this speck of a moment of our lives
as I've said before..the good Lord put me where I'm needed whether I like it or not....I can only do the best with what resources I'm given...I don't do greed very well
i'm two words away from that :)
agree just and pav
bah
I have ma 7/44 past tense of keeping something in order... what is other ma 7 please?
i agree. mostly. i just think that certain citizens of certain countries as a whole seem kind of entitled
oo thx westie, I knew you would :)
and oblivious to the world around them
I think that applies to any country
well in a democratic free society you will have the very very rich germeric
the one who does it dee?
my main point was, don't worry about offending me. i like my country but i'm not oblivious to its faults.
morning all - volley - one who doe the other ma 7
aww ty west... thot I had typed that
ty kaz
LOL! Precious is just now attempting her food...I put it down around 8 pm and it's almost midnight here...she stares at it as if it will magically arrive in her mouth from a foot away..every time!
she'd like to be hand fed I think lol
ty kazz
as are we too here in Canada but when you look at shit like what's happening in Iran I mean com'on....we still are freeeeeeeee
those Iranian women are heroines
ap 7/40
and I don't hand feed, 'cept when they're ill, and I don't hand-hold at work either....
i'm very grateful to live where i live. i'm very grateful that i was born here. i'm also grateful that i had the chance to live outside the us and get that perspective
that's great germeric...it sure opens up the mind
pav I didn't say you did just that she would like it
ap 6/27
and I've not lived outside the US, or barely stepped outside its borders...
fireworks
Yes, Precious would love to be hand fed, Joey not so much...
wow, you go anike
wtg anike!!!!
but that doesn't matter pav...not if you're an open minded person
YAY anike (as usual!)
I'm at 100, and with NBT should call it a day...
sometimes we let our 19 year old cat eat her food while sitting on the sofa
anything to get her to eat
TY all - can I clue anything?
gj pav only 93 here
awww, west
missed it anike Yay!!
anike, about 134 words please, lol!
she's good jilli but we make allowances
the missing 8... I have di 8; me 8; what is last one please
I'd like to think I'm more open than most, and coming from a very small town in the midwest USA, it's amazing what simple things actually do pique my interest...I live in Phoenix, 5th largest metro-area in the US...I get lost outside of 30 miles from home...
Sorry, jill, not that much time.
Dee..there are two re8's
ty pav
Aw shucks, anike, lol
There are 2 x re 8 - both similar
ty
pav I'm surprised you didn't settle in NM
re 8's to do with outlaws
well I think world events in the past decade, decade and a half have made the US look much more outside their previous world
what is the clue for me 8?
Yay, nbt!
I'm not so sure just so many people I know just care about themselves and their families don't see the bigger picture
me 8 has a prefix meaning big, large
but what are the last four lol?
Sort of a big footed bird
ok that helps ty
I have hi 4/5... what do other 2 begin with?
of course westie, there will be many many of those small minded people...or maybe it's just their way of survival
ha 4/5
NM does not hold my interest any longer...the native americans are just like us, only perhaps poorer, the scenery is flat and bland for the most part, and the job market is def "who you know, not what you know"...I was scoffed at for being snobbish when I first moved there, they just weren't educated enough for me...I stil lrefer the NM as being a bit backwards..def slower pace with not much to do...
ty kaz
ha 4/10 and ha 5/22
gracias
where are you from originally, Pav?
Must do some housework - see you tomorrow sometime
bye anike
I never thought of it that way pav but I have driven through Gallup
big footed bird *thinks*
born in Detroit (Hamtramck, Polish ) raised in Adrian 75 miles SW of Detroit farm country
me too ge4
well, I'm hopeless at this and need to go to bed -- won't have time tomorrow but it's been fun chatting -- night all
did you move there because of climate?
the larger cities in NM are growing in size with newer construction, but it dead ends there...the Natives are being forced to grow in to their industrialism (aka casinos) with some socialistic guidance
the larger cities in NM are growing in size with newer construction, but it dead ends there...the Natives are being forced to grow in to their industrialism (aka casinos) with some socialistic guidance
I'd like to have a casino here
lol sounds like here esp at the NY Ontario and Quebec borders where they have lots of sovereingty on their land
I, also, cannot think of a big-footed bird....
burp! I love the SW (warm) climate...but I think I should be closer to water...my condo is 'bout 50 feet from a man made lake which I rarely visit...
are we clear on the first part? oldest March sister and first vowel?
just think of a big foot (I looked it up in morewords)
Also am being driven crazy by the last t in the left-hand corner....
well it is dry there...never felt as good as I did when I went to Vegas last summer...heat was bad but dryness was sooooo good
I have sinusitis, I guess, and I need some moisture, but not htat much...btw Vegas was just as warm as AZ a few weekends ago when I visited...so much has changed there since "01 when I was last there..amazing trip...
just before i go to work...is the di8 slanted?
yay, got it!
which t's do you have, jaianniah?
di7 8 are containe within the middle three columns...
Help me with it, g!!!
there are two to 4s and one ty 4
so goodnight all *poof*
night Jilli...
night jilli very close behind you
and me makes three!
Got the reptile and the misspelling...
goodnight, i am for sure finished now that i've got the four eights and nbt :) see you all later
night all!
to + a mathematical symbol
good night jilli and qt and pav taking a break sleep well all of you
bye all bye westie
TY!
cants see the di
its a stupid word...D** your toe into water + opp of yes + alt spelling of girls name and plural
di : scientific name for lungfish
ty just...i can go to work happy..lol...bye all
lol..bye
Having trouble with di8...know the start, but not the finish....
the ***wer is in the back of the book
the alt spelling of the girls' name is an "article"
di8 is really confusing me now!!!
mayneguy told you the ***wer...
I thought it started with the beginning of "slanted" but....
ummm maybe we're not on the same pa**....what are you looking for?
I need a clue as to the beginning, it seems...
I'm lost let's start over...you need a clue for what?
di8
starts out like an alcoholic
ok di = d** your toe to test the water... plus....the opposite of yes.....plus a shortened spelling of a girls name as in **** of green gables
and its plural
if that don't do it I give up
It did it, and I was on the wrong track because I was looking at "diagonal": as the root...therein lay the trouble!
I'm back and it did it tyvm!!
wtg u2!!
And TY VERY MUCH!!!! LOL!
no just wtg YOU
lol you're sweet westie
morning all
I would never have gotten that
now tell me about those ribs
lol
morning sprite
smeg
hi sprite and mayne
whaddya wanna know?
smeed
hiya spritey
oopsie!!
what do you do first? do you boil them?
well I bring them to a boil with a cup of white vinegar then turn it down to simmering for 20 to 30 min
cat that didn't help me abit
what does the vinegar do? tenderize them?
if you want my beer bbq recipe I'll email it to you
yes it does
that would be great!
sure...give me a day or two?
I'd love to have it too, 1Mar. Pretty please? Ribbon around it? Banana on top?
lol spritey...of course
thanks :)
that's fine just won't be here for a few days anyway
will also give me the incentive to put it on the pc cause my newspaper clipping of it is old, dry and tanning
where you off to westie?
I have a lot of those all over the place
are you gonna do something fun, west?
going up to Maine to get the cottage ready for the renters
not fun sprite our turn in Aug
well I know you
the builder is cutting it so close but he did manage to install the dishwasher
ah I see, hard work.
've been having such sh**ty weather westie...hope it changes for you
oh here too just so sick of this gloom
we've had the same sh** but we've also lately have had summer!!! sunny summer is hot now even at this hour
my 85 year old aunt and 2 of her friends are renting from us over 4th of July that should be a hoot
lol
she'll be calling every day
are her friends her age too?
a little younger but they're both nuns
they all live in a retirement home
lolol yeah should be a hoot!
big adventure
do they wear a habit?
I hope they have nice weather
yes would be very nice....
not many of them do anymore I've never met them Sister Bea and Sister Theresa
and Auntie Mary Jane
well I think the younger ones don't and haven't for quite some time but the older ones??? no??
we bought a 23" flat screen tv for one of the bedrooms and it turned out to be a monitor
awww crap
can you exchange it?
hope so I have the receipt
bought it for Maine we're so nice to our renters
gotta be careful these days...so much tech stuff out there
the tv was on display so we grabbed the box that was under it and assumed that's what we had
lol you sound like my hubby...
i always READ...:)
we don't even have desktop computers any more or we'd just keep it
he swears he checked the serial number...
I'm sure they'll exchange it
thing is we thought we were getting a good bargain
might have to get another size tho...
we should have known
another of life's lessons west...
no free lunches
nope...not in this part of town
they have come way down in price
are you enjoying your new TV?
yes they have and I'm sure you'll get a great deal on a TV
if we have any money left as the builder gets through
yes it's pretty nice....but living in Quebec we get less HD stations than in other parts of the country cause many of the HD stations are in French and I ain't interested
we have DirecTV and lately it always goes out get a few local channels and that's it
I do not watch french tv
we watch it in Maine sometimes just so I can try to figure out what they're saying
have one channel there from Quebec
we also have lots of tourists
it's so hard to explain here...but we use the cable station that's available here cause it services our bedroom tv too but has less variety cause there's more french but...
did you get the DVD player hooked up?
if it took the phone satelite...I'd get more choice but would have to buy to set tops for both tv's (a fortune)
I think we rent ours
we have to buy no choice
I'd chuck the whole works but then we'd have to get one of those digital boxes
yes dvd player is hooked up but don't even use it....I just download whatever and transfer it to the media player that plays it on the tv
we have Apple TV must be similar
at least this way I get my money's worth from by ISDN internet! lol
takes forever to download
not for me with the site I use...
what is ISDN?
ours goes through the DSL very slow
not cable hi speed but phone hi speed
I can d/l an hour long tv show (which is really only about 46 minutes) in about 10 minutes
ours is phone..but slow they keep promising to hook up to FIOS but that will be forever away
what is FIOS?
a 2 hour movie takes about 20 min
fiber optics operating system I think
comes through the phone line but uses existing sat. wires
unless it's an HDTV (much bigger file)
we d/l a movie and it took 23 hours lol
oh well fiber optics is supposed to be fast and good, no?
it was HD but really
well was it from a peer to peer site...??
that's what he says he can't wait
we streamed it from our computer
peer to peer means that while you're downloading, others are uploading off you...that is really slow....
not sure if it was peer to peer
where I d/l from there's no upload to others...
oh I don't think so
but maybe that's why it took so long
I have seen so much TV and movies westie....at first it was taking me almost the same time as you but I've evolved lol
with thanks to my son...for showing me the way...
you're an expert now lol
no...they call us leeches...lol
how are they doing? is he still thinking about moving to NC?
usenet, 1Mar?
remember when TV was free?
no that was told to him just last week...lotsa politics
no spritey it's a site called TVFreeload.com
ah ok, thanks :)
you join for free...
it was a little confusing for me at first, but then found my way to d/l tv shows, movies etc which I watch on my pc or...
is it like hulu?
I bought this unit that plugs into my tv ...so I transfer what I've d'l'ed onto that device then plug it into the tv and watch it there too...
I don't really know what hulu is westie cause it won't allow Canadians to use it :(
probably the same I just checked out your site and I think I'm going to like it
This site....TVFL (TVFreeload) has people who upload tv shows and movies to a site wherebye you can d/l from....all you are doing is downloading....there is no peer to peer ...which means than people are uploading off you while you are d/ling off others....so easy to explain yet so hard too
what's the name of your device?
well if you have any questions westie about it, just email me...
I get it
but I'm sure I will have questions
I forget I'd have to go upstairs to check but basically it's a "media player" that takes the .avi files that most visual medial is used and allows it to be played on your tv
appletv is sort of the same but only takes movies etc from iTunes
so they cost
I bought it in Toronto...but it's made in Calif....
or rather it's sold out of CA prob made in China :(
was just thinking that lol
and now for a Babble question
well this is free....when you use it for free...you have usually a 45 second delay...and maybe an ad but that's a small price to pay for finding whatever you want, whenever you want
left corner t I have the mistake and the froggy what is the other please?
I don't mind ads I remember when cable first came out we paid to avoid the commercials now that's all there are
to4/5 *** of the morning to you and ego
thanks just same to you lol
lol and it is sooooo morning
left column greyed
it's dark
told hubby I'd go ( or try to go) to sleep at a reasonable hour
yeah I tell mine the same thing
oh in another 1/2 hour dawn will break here
but then I'm up to make him breakfast
aww so sweet west (thank god mine doesn't want) lol
and as I said tomorrow is the biggest Quebec holiday of the year
fete accompli?
everything except pharmacies and depanneurs (corner stores) MUST be closed
lol westie how punnish of you
so no mail
lol
thanks god no mail...no bills
or catalogues
then...exactly a week from today...is Canada Day...another statutory holiday!
you have almost as many holidays as the English
the ROC (rest of Canada) works tomorrow, but they have a "civic" holiday on the first Monday in Aug...but here in Que...we do not
they have Bank Holidays
No way....you have more holidays than we do
RI is the only state that takes off for VJ Day
we have no holiday whatsoever between New Years and Easter
our Monday holidays you mean?
but you have a Flag Day or something in Feb...don't you?
President's Day
valentines day doesn't count...
and MLK day in Jan
only if you're in love
well we have dipshit ...although I don't work so it's no biggie for me
at least I don't work now (last 6 years)
Flag Day is just observed not an official holiday we had a half day off when I was in elementary school
but no retirement or pensions or anything....nada...zilch....bubkas
you work you just don't get paid
exactly...been that way since day 1
his retirement fund just about went belly up
:( that sooo sucks westie
we have our house and that's paid for so we can't complain
f***ing greedy pigs
I just feel sorry for the young ones
ours too but I know hubby will be working until he can't work anymore
same here
all I can say is....I better go before he does...
otherwise i'll be in deep sh**
I'm thinking the same thing
a friend of mine just got married again at 64
don't think I'd want to do that
wow...and I was gonna say that the conversation was taking a slight macabre twist...but....
no...no more men...lol but my hubby, for all his faults, lol, is a keeper....
back to food then are you having a houseful?
oh mine too after all these years we understand each other
amazing how he's taken care of me these last 6 months with me so totally dependant on him and him still working his 60 hour weeks...
no westie...just my son and DIL....my MIL will not eat pork
that's true love isn't it?
oh I thought you were having short ribs
I invite them all over every sunday...try to make something that she (87 years old) and us will all enjoy...
not short ribs...baby backs...
even better lol
can't you roast some chicken for her or something?
I so hope that next summer you will come to Montreal...I will take you to the most fabulous rib resto .....
Jon would bow down and kiss your feet
Once a week is enought westie...I've heard all the stories a 1000 times or more already
ROFL
I know just what you mean
tomorrow is just the kids and us...
don't feel guilty cause it's in the middle of the week...not sunday ...
it's nice of you to do that with all you're going through
well...we've been doing it all along even when I couldn't do much....hubs would do everything from working, then shopping, then shlepping, preparing,,cooking then cleaning up, then driving everyone home...
sigh..tired thinking about it
yikes me too
but he wanted to....
we all live too far away from each other to do that and I can hardly get my mother to come here
a few times I've brought everything over to her house and it was just not worth it
sigh westie....he is the child of a holocaust survivor....he'd do anything for his mother
I understand that westie...
and I understand him as well
if I had to do it all over again tho...I would NeveR marry a child of a holocaust survivor
is he an only child?
too much fu**ing guilt and guilting is serious stuff
no he has a sister who is less than 2 years older than him
she moved to Toronto back in 81
there was another child but she died very very young in the gulags of Siberia
so she's just around occasionally?
oh how terrible
how long has your mil been in Canada?
used to be occasionally but now if once a year that's alot
since '58
but one of her daughters gave birth to the first great grandchild (late last september) so MIL goes to TO 2 or 3 times a year now
trying to do the math where was your husband born?
lucky she can still travel
my husband was born in germany ( in the refugee camps) after the war was over (47) THe daughter was born in Siberia....just before the war was over...
they emigrated to Israel for a few years then came to Canada in '52 or '53
the things people have been through it breaks your heart
does he remember any of the early years?
yes for sure...
I am not a religious person whatsoever but did you know that there are only about 13 million Jews worldwide?
I know there are not many heard there are more Jews in NYC than in Israel
about 6 million live is Israel...4 million in the states and the other 3 million scattered across the globe...
I got my figures mixed up
but still when you think of it that's not very many
and there are about 400 million muslim arabs in the middle east...yet we are the scapegoats and the threat to world peace
very few in fact
Israel is standing up for her rights
one of my favorite Bob Dylan songs is Neighborhood Bully
do you know it?
I regard my heritage as both Canadian and Jewish....and both are totally non secular....
I am just a traditionalist....and my philosphy is ...live and let live...that's it ..that's all
I still say mothers should rule the world
hi again... can anyone tell me about 'costco'??
let me live my way in peace and harmony and you go live whatever way you want to but don't cross me...
it's great mrp lots of bargains but you have to buy in bulk
or women
what would you like to know about Costco, MrP?
they've taken ours away
and I miss it
it is a warehouse club store where prices are cheaper but selection is minimal...but top brands sold there and you have to sign up to be a member
ah, bulk buy!! they haven't mentioned that at yet.... allegedly, Costco is coming to our shores and they want us to know what to expect
oh you'll love it MrP
the cost of a membership is about $35 a year and you can save that the first time
westie my hubby shops there every week!!!
their big drawcard is that costco has NEVER had withdawl from a foreign market
and also here, in Canada...they only take cash...debit card or Costco AMex
we have BJ's now it's similar but I liked the electronics at Costco never had to bring anything back
mrp if you have a place to store stuff it's great..i.e. 36 rolls of toilet paper
we have a lot less than you in choices westie (although other provinces have much more selection)
I only write checks at BJ's since someone hacked into their system and we had to change our credit card numbers
we always buy that stuff in bulk...they also have great meat...bakery....all kinds of stuff
what's BJ's??
the trick is if you see something you like you'd better buy it because next week it will be gone
same as Costco
the store in NH sold beer and wine the one here doesn't
Well at Costco tho....products remain ongoing for many months/years...
we have something similar here called Campbells Cash and Carry, but they don't have denim and diamonds as well
at least most of them
they are not allowed to sell alcohol here at costco
lol well not sure about the diamonds but the denim,,,yeah for sure
here they are only allowed to sell beer and wine but in Mexico, Costco sells hard liquor...depends on the country's laws
when we lived in the DC area there was a great costco I bought some lovely waterford champagne flutes for a song
here it goes by state
and here by province...
the laws here are solid... if children can come in with parents, no alcohol sold
that's a good rule
but I go (used to go) to Mexico every year and even the WalMart there also sells hard liquor beer wine etc
same in VA could get it all in the supermarket
a litre bottle of Kaluha sells for 10$ US in Mexico...here a 750 ML bottle sells for 305 CAD
mrp when are they expecting costco to arrive?
wow did you bring a lot back?
they have started building, and reckon it will be ready to trade in 6 weeks
you mean 30$ CAD??
and they had 90 proof kaluha if you wanted it
that's quick
no westie I usually bring back 2 1 litre bottles of Bailey's Irish Creme for $25 US
we're only allowed on bottle per person :(
when we go on cruise we bring back the alloted amount and then forget we have it
*one*
ag6,27 please?
oh with me around I'd find your stash :)
lol
I so need to sleep!! Maddison has drained me today! I feel like a failure.
don't have that yet faith
why mrP?
nm - monkeyed it
don't have it faith sorry
would you like to share the stats?
anyway, will try and get myself up later for some babble. bye for now! (she is sick mar, constantly!)
bye mrp and get better maddie
is that your daughter,??
ag6,27
thanks
sigh westie...it's 5 am must go and try to sleep...
same time here I think I will join you
see you in a few days
have 77 left and prob wont finish this one
sure you will babble in between courses
enjoy westie...
nope...lol
prob will be a very early dinner son has to work thurs
enjoy that wonderful dinner
thx and will send on the recipe tomorrow or Thurs
thanks I"m sure we'll enjoy it
please send the recipe for the ribs too
sure
I really like the idea of boiling them first with vinegar
it makes them sooo tender but the simmering (not boiling) shrinks them up the bone a bit
otherwise you'd have to slow cook them for many hours...
simmer first then bake?
and that's just not practical
and will send it to you too spritey...won't forget :)
bake or grill on bbq
grill in maine oven here
no bbq there in RI westie??
we keep promising to get one
well stop promising and just do it!
ok
sounds like a nike commercial
it does lol
you can do it in the oven but I'd just broil them at the end to crisp up the marinade
mmmm
when will you be back westie?
Friday
may the weather gods be with you
son in law's 50th birthday party is on saturday I'm bringing tortellini salad
fingers crossed
yummm
where?
in Boxborough, MA
hi
not a place I'm too familiar with lol
his friend was born the day before him so the party will start on the 27th and end on the 28th
hi herin and just about bye
now don't go getting drunk westie! lol
oh :(
hi herin how are you feeling?
I can if I want lol won't be driving
still crappy and how you?
5:14 am herin...time for sleep ya think?
been a long time though I think I've forgotten how
I'm okay getting tired though
lol west
yes definitely
really tired here ...so long friends....
I still have my glass of wine from dinner
have fun west poof bye herin
I am also wondering if silk can be put in the wash without destroying it
bye just sleep well and try not to work too hard although I'm sure they will all appreciate it
on a very gentle cycle herin and line dry it
Bye Just
do you have Woolite or something similar?
What is that?
what is it you're going to wash?
I am sick of taking Mr Stinky to the dry cleans only to have Mr Stinky is still stinky
it's made for hand washables like lingerie and sweaters
Its my long lestat coat
that sounds very nice
going to wear it to the wedding?
No wedding here now.
No its stinky
I'm sorry I keep messing up that wedding was last Thursday?
can you just air it out?
Mr Stinky is stinky I would take it to a dry cleaner but I am still unsure as it goes to the dry cleaner and comes back stinky. Yes there was a wedding last week
what about Febreze?
supposed to take smells out of fabric
Nope this is high density MR Stinky
silk is hard though I bought a silk sweater set and it must have come over on a fishing boat or something just could not get the fishy smell out
ewww
Hand wash it Infernal - got some velvet soap or similar? Can take reasonably warm water. Just be careful ironing it...not too hot, easy to scorch. A trick is to put it into a plastic bag after it is dry and into the fridge before you iron it
yes it was awful finally had to throw it away
Thanks Lynxx. The fridge?
hi lyn what a good idea
eww West
I wouldn't Iron it. IT is silk inside lining
I'm saying fridge but it might be freezer
Why the fridge Freezer?
Oh, it's not all silk? What is the rest of the fabric?
Fridge makes it easier to iron
I think the outer *not otter* is cotton
Linen perhaps?
Maybe not sure all i know is its stinky
Look at the contents label, sometimes on right side seam at thigh level if not on neck
There is no label. Its very old
and stinky
More than 30 years?
No about 15
(and stinky boy that i got it from didn't wear deodorant)
There must have been a care/contents label then (by law). Look at the side seam, perhaps under the lining if loose
It was hand made
and has been repaired
Anyway, I am guessing if it is silk lined then it is probably linen, which is hard to iron. I would hand wash and dry in open air. Then take it to a dry cleaners for press only
The dry cleaners just cant eliminate the taint
calling it a day bye all
...which is why YOU wash and dry it, and they JUST press. Should solve your problem
bye West
Night West.
Really I thought that they cleaned it hence the Dry Clean
Sorry to sound dumb
They are just going to spot any noticable stains and throw it into the machine with the cemicals. A good loving gentle handwash by yourself is going to be more effective
...as long as you are sure that the fabrics are 'natural' and not synthetic mind you
I honestly never knew that Lynxx thank you. The previous owner has said that it survived the clubs its indistructable
I used to have a few white and cream silk shirts and gave up drycleaning them when I noticed how yellow they were becoming with the drycleaning chemicals. Ironing was a bitch however
BBL
I got smoke odor out of a quilt by tumbling in a dryer with Lysol spray....for a good while mind you.
me7 please?
my mother-in-law gave me a beautiful quilt that her mother had pieced and someone else finished. to my chagrin, whomever finished it used *shudder* glue to "assist" in binding and now the glue has yellowed. any ideas how to clean that?
me7 - a huge natural pea container
What kind of glue??
elmer's glue, i presume.
for the fish smell Borax might work
I would try hand washing.....soak in a bathtub with soap, not detergent. Let the water drain out when you are done. You can spin in the washing machine, just don't agitate.
soap? you mean like hand-soap?
elmers is water soluble - though maybe not after years! a long soak might allow you to wash it out
Could it be that iron-on binding?
it has been many years. but if it's water soluble early-on, then maybe i can get lucky now.
no, it's definitely not iron-on.
you're talking about fusible link, right?
Right -- fusible stuff.
sorry, fusible webbing. :) fusbile link is different altogether.
no, i've seen that and this is hand-sewn, but there's glue. my mother-in-law asked the lady she'd comissioned to finish it and she admits it's glue.
(shame on her)
thank you, REG. i hadn't thought of trying something as simple as your suggestion. it probably cannot hurt.
I used to use Elmers to put the badges on my sons' scout uniforms before sewing them. It kept them in place better than pins
good morning everyone
Hi Eva
hi everyone
Hi dinok
does anyone have clues for the di8 and the ri8 that isn't a rebel?
Sorry Eva - havent got to the 8's yet
Sorry....had to dress for the gym....soap for hand wash would be things like Ivory Snow or Woolite...or if you are hard core, order Orvis from a web site or get it at a farm supply, also used to wash animals...I'm not kidding! And using glue on a quilt is not horrible. It just should have been washed right after the stitching was done!

I don't remember seeing anyone from Ireland on the chat before.
Well, theres me, and Silverback. We are the only ones flying the flag. lol
Hi Sorry I wondered ff

When I slid chat open there was almost a half hour of nobody talking, I thought maybe it was heads down on the desk time or sumpin'.
heh heh heh Esprit!

I'm thinking along the lines of Charles Manson and his ism schism followers to keep it family friendly.
Cuz nothing says family like Charles Manson! :p
or The Duggers
can tell a lot about people by what they think is funny
God. Please, no "reality TV" references..... gah
the duggers are just a waste of resources...im not impressed that she can have a litter
Mornin' BR
A quick hello to my Babble buddies. Hello! I hit the snooze alarm too many times.
gm scrabs
morning scrabbs;)
lol you need one of those alarm clocks that moves and hides once you hit the snooze button. It makes you actually get out of bed and find it to hit the snooze a second time
I took Benadryl last night so I could fall asleep after not sleeping Monday night, and I was still sedated at 6 AM when the alarm went off.
That m is heavily laden with phantom words. Yeesh
hi
anxieties scrabs?
OK, I must run now. Enjoy the day everyone.
Have a good one Scrabbler. Laters
Yes, Jean--Richard and Bully Nurse #1 created unnecessary havoc for me yesterday and I am pissed, yet remind myself that I am out of there in 3 mo!
:-(
I could reply with facts/truth (altered by Bully Nurse), or ignore the lot.
make them some Ex Lax brownies
Good idea!
the gift that keeps on giving
And they are both FOS--full of you-know-what, so they need a clean out
lol, gotcha
heh heh heh my last m words was the intellectual organization that keeps rejecting my pleas to be a member.
Yikes, I must go although I would rather chat with you, Jean. Bye.
bye have a good day

hi mom
Oh that is it im going
gm all
Hi mom
gm mopm,this thing is chock full of phantoms
sorry
I tried to come back last night to finish yesterdays... but had to run a virus scan... my computer had 5 viruses... ugh... still cleaning it as we speak.
havent had many babblets yet though(knocks on his wooden head)
which anti-virus do you use mom?
Kaspersky
But for some unknown reason my husband changed the settings so it has not run a full scan in a while.
mmm..i highly reccomend AVG,its free,unobtrusive and powerfull and does not kill your resources
And this morning my daughter said "things" had been popping up at her from Kaspersky, but she just "x'd" out of them... LOL!
un oh
Yes crossy I know... however, the hubby just paid for a year of Kaspersky so I am stuck with it until February.
not good
clues for the ma7s plz
I use nortons
No, not good at all!
i find the last 2 issues of norton to be a resource hog
Not a problem here with nortons as my laptop is a tad grunty
Kaspersky is a ridiculous resource hog... and I don't find that it updates properly... I ran a scan yesterday, which came out clean... then ran update... and now I have 5 viruses... so, you tell me.
It is also not that user friendly...
i set mine to auto-update every 2nd day
AVG is set it and forget it:)))
Well, I thought mine was set that way, too... God only knows what frick and frack do when my back is turned!
clues for the ma7s plz
:(((
Oh, I know... but he just goes ahead and does things... he thinks he knows what he is doing... and he means well.
Sorry didn't respond as i did not have it
in potters movies there is a map that colses with the words mischeif ma*****
I only have 2 words right now movie man... too busy bitching about viruses!
lol mom

Oh dear, I dont know any Harry Potter stuff. I gave a set of Harry Potter to my grandkids but I have read the books.
Annie... you should read them. Honestly, they are charming and clever on many levels.
*not, repeat not
I don't know any Harry Potter stuff either
Hows yr daughter coming along Annie?
I get the no 6, but not the no7, is is related [the one with how old you are]?
of you own a business,you may hire this person to crack the qwhip over the employees

Get with the program people!!! What are you all doing with your time??? Working, keeping house, raising kids??? LOL.
I don't think so bichon
FM,,she is very well, took the kids to Cooperstown for a couple of days..Baseball Hall of Fame is there

mom, I going to borrow the books from my gkids
help with middle E in right column pls
*waves* back to FM :)
You won't be disappointed Annie.
haven't found either of those e's yet.
It's not the easiest of grids today but it is fun (so far)
better than yesterday... I hated yesterday's grid.
help with 8's pls
en5--hmm colon cleanser and pl
thanks Annie
lol thanks Annie, I never see that word.
eg 4/6 too
wow, thanks annie - and good morning friends! that was what I was missing for NBT
not seeing any of the H words
mom2 - I fell asleep last night with THREE words left to find. arrrrgh
Hi Trif...did you warm up any?
I use coffee for that myself Annie...
LOL
that stinks Trif
It's supposed to heat up here starting tomorrow
peri... think Islam
ha4/10, 5/22, 4/10 use the tile values as there are very few options.
Funny you should ask, Annie - I swear, the house heater turned on yesterday, and I had to put the heater on in the car this a.m. for the early school run. Suckage.
at least for two of them... I don't know about the third H, as I do not have it.
I am, must not be spelling the words right
Tri when are your kids getting out of school?? Late aren't they
FM... I do not even know the tile values... I have been playing for so long and am ashamed to say this, but it is true!
Oops just realised the last h I mentioned should be a 4/5 not 4/10 sorry!
I'm glad someone else's kids are still in school... mine gets out tomorrow... yee ha!
today, speed
Morning Sis!
thanks FM and mom, got two of the H's for NBT
hey RKB how are you today?
Thanks FM...
Tri do they go back after labor day
lol mom, sometimes I have to count like crazy to try and work out what a word is after I have listed.
there are two ha 4/10's?
usually, yes, speed. our superintedent also works as a harbor master, so we have to work around that.
Just heard from Javier, Conchita and Emilio. Will talk later.
Oops just realised the last h I mentioned should be a 4/5 not 4/10 sorry!
just got the last h FM... thanks.
ty Fmitch
Any clues please for the no7/36
LOL Trif... that's great. Our super barely works at all... LOL.
Thankfully we started going back before labor day about 3 years ago, the kids are done by the time June hits so it is nice getting out earlier
trif,ill trade you temps,we are dying here not used to 25-35 c temps;( too hot:/
Must go and get some luch back shortly
ours is a pig. totally over paid, totally spending the money on the wrong things. Easily the least respected man on the south shore
cross we have been so cold and rainy for so long here that we would trade just to see the sun
got heat rashes yesterday in many uncomfortable places;(
This grid is as tedious as yesterday's. :) Ditto the comment on the weather.
still have 100 left and I think I will leave it for awhile
clue for py 5/18 please
ok read,instead of weather i can decribe all my scars if you like;)))
Trif... ours is "retiring" in August... kind of forced to.
My phone just rang and it was his office on the phone... I served on the Board of Ed for several years and they want to give me a plaque or something and it was supposed to be tonight.... but now something came up... so, of course he had his secretary call me... I guess he's very busy... LOL.
py 5 py+ asndr***, robot
*andr*** even
thanks bichon would not have monkeyed that one
finally got the re 8...person who behaves in a rebellious manner. Hope that helps someone.
wife wants a store run...pray for crossy....
poof
sorry bichon not getting your clue
there is a second re/8 change the last vowel took me forever to find RKB
good morning everyone
hi flosey!
hi flosey
tks for the re8 clue RKB, it did help someone!
Norma, what a handsome cat
not finding that second re 8 Speed, I'll keep playing
quite regal looking
tks to speedfreak too
RKB Same exact word as first one just change last vowel
got it...
had been typing very poorly.
never saw it that way before but someone else clued it earlier thankfully
ad6? plz?
does anyone have a clue for ap7 please?
sorry don't have either
ad 6 is a plural
Thanks read, yr original clue gave me an 8 a 6 and a 7.
a + pot or a *** and he works for the minimum w***
I have been wondering - the number of grids must be finite, right? There are only so many combos that could result in a significant number of workable english language puzzles....
flosey a + cooking utensil + how old you are
thanks BR
and Norma
eventually we will have been presented all the grids there are to do, yes?
doubt it
will we remember if we repeat a grid from say 3 years ago LOL
the number of words keeps increasing
really, br? I was wondering....I mean, if one grid was all J's, or had no vowels, it wouldn't be an acceptable grid.
someone will remember, speed!!!
add in more foreign words
sure won't be me already forgot yesterdays
okay, need to run now.....reading to the 4th grade for the last time this year. we are finishing up The Little Prince today, so you can BET I will be puffy eyed and sniveling in an hour!
Must run in the family...like trying to remember asana after a million times in the grid!!!!
* hands Trif a box of Kleenex to take to school*
lol - thanks annie! The kids know I read it every year, so half of them have heard from older sibs about it -- half of them will be watching intently to watch me cry, the other half will be trying to keep themselves from crying. Good times....
Unless my math is wrong (which it might be!) This is the number of possible permutations of letters to make grids. I don't see us running out anytime soon: 6.15611958 × 1036
clue for po 5/18
**6.15611958 × 10 to the power of 36
two re 8's and a me 8. what is the fourth?
Hi {{{Uni}}}}
di8
but here's the rub, uni - a good number of those grids will be completely useless - all cons, all vowels, no actual words in, all one letter, etc. I couldn't figure out an equation for how many workable grids there would be.
That doesn't consider wether we can find words in it or not, of course, but as long as there is one word, it is a grid, soo..
clued at 7:55 by bichon
It's still gonna be a very large number. More than enough to take us through our lifetimes, I would assume.
good to know! thank uni, and now I am really running!
this time really going to do something around house RKB talk to you later....
ad6 is a plural of somethinbg I do not have...help!
Even if only 5% of the grids were doable, it's a fantastic number with lots of exponents.
jai, ad 6---plural of ad5---to revoke
I do not know what is the matter with me but I still cannot see this one, and it is one of my last ones...
a + Jesus is the re****er; pl
you may re**** a coupon
Think of lemon*** and Wizard of Oz Aunt **
I did something that usually jinxes me- started the grid by entering a non-word. Trying to make a comeback now.
Uni, You can do it!
*Appreciates the support. :)
How are you today, btw? Got any sunshine?
good morning
Good morning Harp!
In all my Babble days, I have Never seen that word! TY, my friends!
Uni, Not here. dreary, gray and drizzly
I know that weather. I am on the fourth day in a row of it and I have a lot of long distanbce walking errands to do. I put them off hoping it would get better!
Uni, Umbrella time. My flowers need some sunshine.

I gave in, used Lickety for the last 15 words.
lickety did even save me yesterday! I need more experience to get all of those babblers
hi boo
hey
and didn't regret it at all, lol, wouldn't have found most of those words by myself, not if I could have saved my life with it.
*didn't (that is)
hiya Boo
hi sprite
Merk did you ever find the word you were looking for? was it re8?
UP until yesterday I was really pushing myself to go as far as I could without lickety. . .
I was lucky to see a clue for today's di biggies.
do tell sprite. . .
to put into liquid + negative + short for woman's name
plural for the 8
oo I was trying for the 8 with that *looking*
wow my monkey would have written shakespeare before finding that one!
ty sprite
lol exactly! And my pleasure, new one for me as well.
a lungfish!
A particularly unfishy fish! lol
they are lungfishes!
clue for no 7/36 please
oh LOLOL we were on the sa4 pa4 ;)
sorry Boo, don't have it yet

wonderful, thanks joey!
Eening spritey
YVW
is it as bad as yesterday's
I would say worse
I hope not, yesterday's had words my monkey couldn't even think up when drunk on banana liquer
oh joy!
although there are some great words in it but wya too many phantoms and all the vowelsare in the wrong place.
I admit to having tried shaking the grid a bit
on 6 and an 6 are both giving me trouble
you can shake it?
Oh the itmer has gone off in the kitche, dinner awaits bbl Good luck!!
well one can try!
enjoy FM
If you shake it too hard, the words fall out of the word list.
lol
:)
I have neither, germer, sorry
i knew it was too good to be true
on6 is a donkey thing
wow thanks ata, found it in one
even all
hi katie

hey BabbleRabble, glad to see you.
thanks br
donkey thing
thanks BabbleRabble, new one for me
on 6 -- a bet is also called a w****
hmmmmm is this an evil grid? hitting the wall at 40 doesn't seem good
Katie, long and good or long and tough?
I am finding it less tough than yesterday's, but far from smooth.
it was a good day actually but I had to write a paper so in early and left later, got good feedback from people I respect so was happy
sounds good to me, gratz Katie! And now for some welldeserved babble relaxation time?
Hi everybody!
How is the grid today?
yay Katie!
hi beach

**sitting back and waiting for the clues to roll!**

di 8/50 Big ***per; negative;wshort form of woman's name, pl
lol
re8/55 Lorenzo Lamas played runaway lawman on show Re****** and re8/55 change vowel on end
re 8/55 rebellious
ah, Lorenzo Lamas. Now I remember.
anybody have second re8?
change last letter, helensgirl
unremunerated
got an me7 but not me8
Thx Rebecky
you are welcome
add a vowel, periwinkle
aww! the grid has lungfish!
lolol I knew Ata would be the one to find those weirdos
got the di8, thanks
got one of the re8 thanks
should do! couldn't count the number of times I've typed those words!
thanks, got the me8
I actually think your education gives you an unfair headstart on babble, Ata
me 8 .i still cant find
It took the combined efforts of three people early this morning to get di8 across to me!
need help with 2nd re8, Lorenzo Lamas clue not helping me
oh yes. *smug*
peri just change the vowel on the end for the other
*grin* We must find a handicap to give you...
If yours ends in "e", try the other two vowels to end it
thanks Rebecky, got it
thanks helen
helensgirl, small wonder! A really strange combo, that di.
you can handicap ata by making her keep pace with me!
A little like have a ball and chain
not sure that would be a handicap, especially today!
I have 156 left ata
lol, let's tie her pinkies together...
I have 136 left!
...with her tiny toes...
ata I am shoked!
(you could have her type one handed sprite)
Ive only just got home from a day with my dotty grandmother :)
help with a word off the bottom e for nbt
I think I like my id4 better. But I know I cannot pull it off, Ata is stronger than I.
I keep inventing really neat words, and it won't take them!
tethered phalanges
all I have is a dotty mother and mil! lol
ohhhhh that sounds impressive! I like it.
thanks sprite and germericanqt
wtg neeta!
but she is honorable--if was ruled by the Babble court that she use only one hand. . . .
bottom e = sea eagle
of course we would first have to create a babble court. . .
was it fun, Ata, or just exhausting?
can hardly type 2 handed anyway LOL. 2 handed ends up in ty4s!
just exhausting *sigh*
argh gwen one of my favorite crossword words too! TY
nbt (finally)
well, then... ok, you can enjoy your unfair headstart today. Because you did a good thing.
I am sorry to hear that ata. It can be trying I know
thanks gwen
shall I send you a cuppa across the ether?
It took us 3 1/2 hours to have lunch, go to the bank and buy 3 things in the grocers!
and I am the world's worst at being patient and standing around for half an hour while apples are being decided upon!
not, for me
what would you like, BabbleRabble?
no tea for you BR?
not: no oblong tiles
lol BR
lol
may all your tiles always be square BR
well ata when I am doing that with my mil (my mother is past that) I think of her waiting while my husband decided things when he was little
and I stand around and hum a little apple selecting tune like the bear with little brain
lol! very good advice
a lovely way of handling it jmc
huuummmm huuummmm huuummm apple huuummm hummm green huuummmm red hummudy hummm
I can normally do that, or just zone out, but today Hobbit was waiting for us in the car and it was really hot and I just wanted to get back to her!
could someone clue me the di7/36 plz. Or at least help me out with the 3rd letter plz.
hi wild
poor Hobbit!
hi
the third letter is p
so for once I was being more impatient than usual
if you get from that you are brilliant sandie! lol
Well, I must take a break for a while. Perhaps I'll see you later.
Big ***per;no;short form of woman's name; singular of di 8/50
bye gwen
that was reasonable ata
Thanks that gives me a start
competing demands will do that

Atalante -- a few weeks ago you and another discussed the Chalet School books, and mentioned Green Knowe ... I had missed them ehen they first came out (already a teenager) but I checked them out, and discovered Lucy Bolton. I want to thank you (and 'the other' ), for the initial heads-up. I'm now reading her autiobiography. Thanks, again.
but we eventually got everything done, and got home to find that gran had left her house key in the front door to my utter horror and her not caring less *sigh*
it was probably Haz, Christine :)
does she live in a bad neighborhood?
luckily, no
apparently she does it nearly every week *facepalm*
di 7 -- add, ducks on the *o*d; and those in need of funds may seek a l*** from a bank ... good luck these days
Thanks for the di clues. Finally got it.
Must take a break - going cross-eyed!
ah well I came home at one this morning to find my front door wide open!
Well, thanks to She-Who-Deserves-Thanks.
oh lucky you! son again?
*handing helen a cool damp cloth*
now WHY would you think that ata?!?!? LOL
of course. back door too
can't imagine!
OOOO GGGGODDDD pls let him graduate college soon and move out!
On the other hand the only time I lock it is when I go to bed or leave town for more than a couple of days
wow! all doors get locked here. except if you live on Sark
Often I type a word into the chat, just now I type a sentence into the Add Word slot. Ithink I really am losing it -- soon need a minder.
sorry had to rush off for tea, hubby had BBQed so didn't want to annoy him lol
they do here too but I have nothing to steal so they are welcome to it.
lol we all do the same christine
no christine I do that too
mmmmm BBQ
doors and windows here
everytime it's sunny he cooks, it's lovely
I used to live in a much much much much worse neighborhood
ooo nice hubby
my housekeeper thinks I am crazy
I lock my door only when I go to bed, or am to be away overnight, otherwise I close the door and the screen, and off we go. Of course, I live in an apartment complex where everyone is DD's age, so I think they look after me as an extra Gran'ma, and would be aware if someone came to yje door.
oh my cleaner is back tomorrow :-) thinking she may have jetlag so will give her another week lol
houeskeepers are good (cheese it my staff)
I lock my front door when I go upstairs and hubby locks it every time he goes out even when I am downstairs - I think he is scared I am going to get stolen lol
Mari is my cleaner, can't wait to see them again
I'm ultra angsty about locking our doors. Our house was burgled when I was about 15 and living at home with parents. Never got over the angst!
was the much worse neighborhood, jmc, the Capital?
I can imagine
clue for sn 5/10
I was burgled in my first rented house with the ex when we were asleep upstairs. never leave your keys in the backdoor if you have a catflap
no!
sharp remark, Boo
it took us months to sleep properly again
omg I can imagine. the same thing happened to a friend a few days ago. I just can't imagine
sn == look of contempt
we have holders for the keys away from the doors in this house lol
good!
I went downstairs and shouted up that the video had go**, he thought that I had lost my mind
video, that ages it :)
and fireworks! Bye all, thanks for the company and help. Have a good night/day.
I thought that when I typed it, we have a dvd recorder now lol
congrats sprite, see you tomorrow
sorry I am back--no BR the worst neighborhood was in Houston. I had to take a cab back three blocks everynight at 1 am when I got off work because it was too dangerous for a woman to walk in alone
Came home one day last week, the screen was closed, but the ddoor was open. Th cabdriver said it wass that way when we left, and he thought I knew ...
when I lived near capital hill it was actually in Lincoln Park (not as nearly as nice as Capitol Hill) and I had to step over the drunks to get to my house.
I could go on.
like being at university!
the drunks, I mean
any clues for re7/36 please?
whoo hoo sprite
nm-finally monkeyed it
yeah but the drunk at college dont smell quite so bad
YAY spritey!
put a p in front of the re 7/36 and with child
usually :P
trust me on this ata! lol
better smelling drunks truly are a bonus
now if I only had the re7
ok ok :D
if you have to step over them to go home they are BR
sigh - it's Asda time, there is no way to avoid it I trust me I have tried, bbl :-)
you can put a p in front of a re on this grid?
reed
have fun at lovely asda! they make very good cream soda
sorry, gulp
what is asda
bichon you are a recidivist!
the UK branch of Walmart
ah!
well, they were bought by Walmart, but still trade as Asda
jmc, what do you mean?
repeat offender
I getthat, but what does that have to do with the ? I asked?
Bichon - not the ?, maybe the word you entered into chatlog.
yes, sorry for that, but someone gave a clue to put the p in front of a re word.
Well heck, if that's the worst thing you do ...
the clue had to do with figuring out the word, not that there's a p to put in front of it
when a woman is with child she is what? (word that starts with p) take the p away and enter the rest and see what happens
I got it right away from your clue BR ty

yeah, you work on babble! How much is Dr.G paying you???
far out... it is 6.30am and still dark! What happened to the sun today??
Today I have worked on a reply brief, advised a CO about an un-coming hearing, gone to Home Land Security about some permits, discussed litigation tactics with a board of an organization of which I am a member and worked on my data base.
Sorry world, but the sun isn't coming up today.
:-P
bummer mr. P do you think the sun got lost?
it must have taken a holiday
oo yeah I have babbled
you obviously don't work enough then jmc!
because i sneak in some babble?
oh oh oh.... here it comes.... looks like it is throwing a tantrum though, must have woken up on the wrong side of the world. Sun is here
see if you can calm it down before it completes its circuit
I have reX2 and di for 8s. What is the last one?
I will send the dog out to chase it around jmc
it was definitely a 2 dog night last night.... had the dog sleeping on top of me!
some how that doesn't sound like it will calm the sun down -- but maybe it is a big dog lover
one of the funniest things I have seen is a dog that chases planes! tries to bite them out of the sky
what the hell is re7/36??? when you are not 100% sure you are carrying a baby??
crossy dressing up to the nines,my boy,s graduation is tonight:))
woo-hoo crossy!!
morning crossy! congrats hun!
yup they got tired of him in grade school and decided to sic him on high school
what is grade school??
1-8th grade
so off to 9th for lil crossy jr
ah! so does that mean going to another school?? or just moving up a grade?
ag 6?
nope,fresh new school
clue for second ge 5/14 please
we don't move schools... just move up to grade 9. graduation comes after year 12.
only problem i see is it is 32c,we are going to be dying:/
I didn't realise that you graduate from year 8? Does that mean that they don't have to go to school after that?
oh yes,school is mandatory till they are at least 16 which would be finishing grade 9,but they are advised to finish grade 12 and get the diploma
they start with graduation from Kindergarten...then it depends on the school whether they want a ceremony for when the kids leave for another school
wow, so much ceremony!
whoo hoo crossy jr!
It doesn;t happen with all the schools
but bye I actually have to pay attention to my job for a while
with todays job market,you better have a diploma ir you will be stuck with a Mcjob:/
don't want to get McFired lol *poof*
loljm
as I understand it, if you have a diploma, you still might get stuck with a Mcjob
indeed
we have phd type people applying to work in our laundry
even college grads might get stuck with McD!
i have some new guy folding my sheets while explaining black holes to me:)
clue for the second ge 5/14 please
that is unreal
ge...*o one is here...**ad this clue again
i had to request a raise for him as he was about to prove that we all dont exist and then we would of vanished in a puff of logic!!
well that isn't logical!!
lol
lol wife is preening
I think therefore.... darn... I had it for a second!
a comb and clean undies and im ready to go anywhere;)
typical man crossy... LOL! put on some eyeliner
my hubby takes longer to get ready than I do
add a bottle of whiskey along with the undies and comb then i can go round the world:)
Some of us don't even need the comb ..
well torg... such a stunner like you doesn't need anything more than a smile!
back from shopping - yeah!!!
indeed torgone
You're too kind .. *blush*
have a solar panel going on top theese days torgone;)
lol
oh my fav word for the day ap6/27,the relative distance tween celestial bodies;)
Well, I have hair but I keep it really short .. That's all I was trying to say .. really ..
its ok torgone,i believe you
I thought you were telling us you like to streak
oh wait - you said no comb, not no undies
of course you can do no undies and let the boys roam free,so really all a man needs is the bottle of whiskey:)
gk
what happened to bread and a good woman, crossy?
I need a little support, Babblers. In 15 Mintes we are taking Nika (20 lb dachshund monrel) to the put to sleep. She is incontinent (both) and has little quality of life.
have to good woman already,no need to shop for that:))
oh wait, that goes with wine...not whiskey :)
im sorry to hear that inge:((
(((hugs)))inge - you are doing the right thing, as hard as it is
hugggggggs inge
{{{{inge}}}}....that is a hard thing to do
it's small comfort but it is for the best
he will be at peace
For more than a year we battled with her problem. Now she may even come in from outsiden and pee then
We will all be thinking of you in the next couple of hours...we've probably all had to do this at one time or another
It is for the better inge ..{{{hugs}}}
remember all dogs go to heaven,as they do not hate,do not judge and love unconditionally,his soul will be free laugh and play
hi all
I've done it, it sucks, but is better than watching them suffering and confused... you can do this inge... be strong
Why did I pick the hottest day of the year?? we have 93 degrees here. Tonight are Detroit's fireworks. Will than propel her overthe rainbow bridge?
ah. well, was hoping to wander in for some cheerfulness, and looks depressing here too :( Sorry, inge, that's rough.
Definitely!!
You should go to the fireworks afterwards and know that she will be running around happy in doggy heaven
Hi jes
g
Thanks for commiserating. Better find my driver to cool off the car. These fireworks draw 2 million people from both sides of lthe border. Traffic afterwards is the pits. I wantch on TV.
*poof* I am off with a box of Kleenex
Been there inge...I know what ya mean
(((inge)))
lol jes,you missed me wandering round with underwear,a comb and a bottle of whiskey;)
bye, inge. just remember, being a right decision doesn't make it easy; you need to do what's right for the dog, not yourself. And if it ever becomes an easy decision, it's time to stop having pets.
pictures, crossy?
alas,no..the camera got a whisky soul spilled upon it;/
Oh, inge, I am so sorry for you. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

hello friends. (((inge and Nika)))
topiary is a lovely word, but sadly doesn't fit in this grid
hi stid
how is the grid today?
sort of tangential, stid.
lot of weird words stid
hm. tangential is the way I normally think. perhaps it will improve my performance.
the doxies got returned from their trial home, so if you know anybody who needs one, i'll set 'em up!
poor doxies. hard to go "home" and then get sent away.
brb
yeah; but they make 5 dogs in my place, and i'm turning away other fosters for not having space. They need to be placed, there's nothing wrong with them anymore :)
how much money to they cost
the doxies? they cost me several hundred to get them patched up and fixed.
i think about $400 between the two of them.
jeez. is that how much youre selling them fofr
I'm not selling them. I'm trying to get them adopted out of my rescue.
All of the adoptions we do are by donation.
ohh really? well thats cool. ive been wanting to get a new puppy.
I can send you an application if you like
that would be cool
what's your email address? or would you rather I give you mine so you're not putting yours out here?
back again.
i dont mind really its beccamagsig_228@hotmail.com
just sent it, and a link to the pet list too
alright cool.
okie dokie... NBT but not halfway yet. tougher than I expected.
down to 60 for me.

evening all - any clues for ad 624 - its doing my head in
a + de5/14
pl the ad5 before it
doh!!!
Shared computers without my personal settings suck for Babble
Cause when I get frustrated I just spam the add word box with swear words and gibberish
hey, that's my technique too! lol
So every time someone enters a word they see all this "sadfasdf" and "argh sh4" and give me funny looks lol
Great minds think alike Gwen
are you funny looking Rushie?
(blush!)
Well, with all the funny looks I've received in my life I guess they might have rubbed off on me
yet another grid with "smeg" and no points for same
Lol!....they should mind their own bidness!!
so? never any points for "dog" either

Got my 08-09 yearbook today, and you could tell it was edited by students.
All the plurals had needless apostrophes, people's names were misspelled...
are yearbooks usually edited by students? (leans forward with head at an angle)
Yes
Leadership team
If they were edited by me they'd be just fine
But noooo, they pick the C students from English class and tell them to make it to their standards for proper english
ah, you mean edited by students who haven't LEARNED anything about ENGLISH. Oy oy oy
Exactly
If I edited the thing it would look much more professional
an6/21 please
very sad. public school?
Yep
You'd think by grades 8-10 they'd learn that the last name Pollock isn't spelled Pollllock, with 4 Ls
is the curriculum different in public schools??
an + religion is the ****te of the people
as much as I support the principle of public schools, my own experience is not all that good!
I don't know, haven't been to a private school
Is Scrabbler here>?
OMG, 4 Ls! lololol
The kids are just taught things that aren't relevant to basic grammar after about grade 4-7
ty br
Like, I've been wrong about some things in grammar, but not nearly to the extent that some of these kids have
my experience has been surprisingly great. I went to private school and my children to go public... they are top of their year and top in the state
A formal creative writing murder mystery assignment I just did, for example. I did a 5-page story, and only one thing got circled, and it was a brain-fart of an edit

rushie, that's why you can play babble and those other kids cann't 8-)
go phaeton!
ack, typo! lol
Some of the other kids did not even a page of writing, and it was stuff like "1 day there was a guy named fred the guy fred found a dead bodie and stuff the end" btw there's only 1 N in can't

ah, the run-on sentence. would you believe that I never understood the def. of "run-on sentence" until after college? Even though we supposedly learned what they were, lots of times; teachers just were useless in explaining that they were
not all dogs like water rushie ;p
wtg phaeton !!! ~~~ !!!'
Well, I tend to do them too but usually I iron it out in the editing phase. I put some more periods in and it makes sense.
Then drink
;)
I use 'and then' a lot of the time in my sentences
not to mention, my teachers never explained the dif. between its and it's correctly. Or the theory of evolution, either
back for a couple minutes and hopefully a couple words
hi all
learned stuff on my own, most of the time
To be honest, I don't like when you aren't taught something that they don't believe in
If one teacher doesn't want to talk about it, then another should
you talking about evolution?
Pretty much
I also don't like being forced into something like a religion
I like to make my own choices about what I want to believe. Good thing I wasn't forced to read the Bible, I would have thought it fiction.
no, i don't think it was refusing to teach it, just being un-educated on it, and unable to teach the basic theory of natural selection correctly
Some of the older schools don't even teach things they don't think matter
see, it made no sense to me until i read up on it, outside of school
clue for the second ge 5/14 please
Like, I don't know about today, but in America years ago they didn't even teach kids about the rest of the world
o
hi all
w
hey Rushie, Fiction or not, you need to know the bible to understand most Literature.
Boo I clued that for you the last time you asked...ge..*o one is here....**gards to Broadway
Hi TO
hi TO
BRB grabbing a snack
rushie, very true. i had few classee where we ever looked at a map, and fewer in which we were expected to learn anything on the map
hi jess. hi rushie
I am sorry Phaeton I didn't get it
hey, i wasn't trying to start a religious war in here, i was just bashing ignorant peons who teach public school 8-)
inge, I know that it is worth understanding, but the whole thing, in my eyes at the least, has been edited so much over the years it's become more of a fiction-type story
And I know, Gwen
Now or then, Boo?
no7/40 please
I've always argued about pretty much everything lol
both
If I have a point even slightly different than anyone else's I want to argue mine
No7....anti baseball or sports
nothing wrong with learning about the bible, (and I say that as an atheist), but obviously not if it is used for religious indoctrination in the public school
only need to know the quotes and the basic story to understand literary refernces to scripture imho
boo it`s the same as ge4,6 + another letter
ty
Sometimes that happens, and I don't believe in trying to convert people
If I don't want to believe in an incredibly arbitrary being, and events, and it's forced upon me, good old concreteheaded thinking kicks in
hahahahah enable doesn't accept much but it does accept pot !!!LOL
ge5...is a class or catagory....ge...ge*tle as a lamb...eat b**ad and butter
yw wild
i also object to schools where they dumb everything down to the densest kid, which in unfair to all the other kids. i got a lot of that (I mean, unfairly forced to be in class with the very dense)
genre
Oh shoot
bang!
There's where my reflexes get the best of me lol
LOL
I see something and BOOM enter it in 2 seconds
Rushie, there is a place for you in the pb
well, almost halfway here . . .
*trots off*
Was going for a snack anyway ;_;
do i sense a smidgin of friction in the camp tonight?
nope! 8-)
since when does knowing one's particular religion effect one's ability to comprehend other volumes of text and literary styles?
just honest discussion of poor teaching
don't think anyone said it did, sug
cause most poetry and novels, especially before 1900, make references veiled or obvious to events in the bibile
i mentioned that the teachers who taught about evolution did not understand it and taught it so badly that I did not either, until i read up on it myself, outside of school
was not arguing about whether it should be taught
gee, I missed that completely Gwen
among other things that were taught poorly, at least to me, when i was in school. like basic chemistry. learned *nothing* about it, and should have
I live in Ireland. all schools are controlled by the catholic church. Believe me - no church should have absolute control over what kids learn. I have seen the damage done,first hand
instead, spent a lot of time learning useless crap that goes toward process, not knowledge, not thinking skill
I came to the US as a freshman in HS. Alwasy felt sorry for the American kids poor knwledge of geography
that's being nice, inge LOL
poor? hardly any! LOL
Hello, Gwen . . .
hi there JC
in the German school we drew maps of other European countries and India as I recall
In every country, history and geography are going to give a pr
i had one class in which we actually had to learn stuff on a map. it covered the middle east only. India? Germany? who knew where *they* were? LOL
pi6 please
sorry - a particular slant to their own particular circumstances. JC - I see you are from the UK. I bet you ddnt learn about Irish history or geography?
hard to understadn history, if youl dont know geography
NM
Yes, Inge - I've noticed they don't seem to learn about any geography outside of their own country. I had one ask me if Wales was a country! :/
hello everyone
Some yes, Soodlebum - I was educated in Catholic schools. Not what I would consider a lot, though. More geography than history . . .
oh, i just remembered, we learned a little bit about Switzerland in German class. someone from Switzerland visited us. pretty much the highlight of the whole class
Hi, westford!!! :)
hi JC
no 7, 36 clue please
And yes, Inge - I certainly agree with that.
hi west all
hi dart
hi westford
Hi, dart - and hi to everyone else that's present too, of course, while I'm at it. :)
hi jc
hi inge
no7 = lack of (3 letters) + what playstation plays
Hi J C
missed you last night dart is all your traveling done for the moment?
ty
hi sood
nope...at the las vegas airport right now
Hey
what a nice way to spend your time..babbling
I sent you a reply on MySpace, westford - sorry it was brief, but I'll reply properly when I can. ;)
it's fine JC I don't know where you find the time
flight doesnt leave for 2 more hours....but it was raining off and on..so not sure if they'll delay any flights
Time? It only takes a few minutes to type a reply . . .
Interesting conversation, thanks. My husband and I were talking about this the other night...he made the comment that Americans believe themselves to be the centre of the universe (world) and therefore only need to know about themselves. This was not said nastily by the way but on reflection actually makes a lot of sense
I'm not supposed to be here but I talked him into leaving tomorrow morning
dart, our daughter BAbbler Sydaria lives in Las Vegas.
where you headed, dart? somewhere fun?
Hi, kje! :)
home...minneapolis
lynxxx, that's a fairly accurate generalization, i would say. smart folks like babblers excepted, of course! lol
it's been quite warm inge lol
hi all
Yes, Gwen - of course! ;)
but of course!
hi kje
we're getting the warm in the next few days
hi kje
JC it may only take a few minutes but the world is full of procrastinators and I am one of them
Lynxx - I agree -(babblers excepted) I read somewhere that only 23% of Americans hold passports. And thats fine - they have every possible holiday destination within their country. But in terms of global experience, they may be called a bit narrow. (will I be stoned for that)
Well, I should think it's fairly obvious I'm not, westford - can't afford to be! ;) I wish I could more, though!
91 degrees in SE Mihcigna, and suppre is calling. Later.
last an6?
Every possible holiday destination in their country, Soodlebum? Hmmm . . . I can think of plenty that aren't in the US. ;)
these a words are killers
101 here
What are you stuck on, westford?
inge is right. it's effing hot here!
1st ag 5/14
possible TYPE of holiday destination Soodle meant JC
Come on , JC - sunshine, skiing, cruising, mountains, valleys lakes, You name it... the US has it
it's probably a plural of the ag4/6 which I don't have either
and tall buildings you can leap at a single bound
The second ag4,6 you mean?
yes
ag & G*** Autrey (spelling?)
A + 'oh g**, I didn't see that!'
soodle: can europeans travel freely within the EU, or are passports needed?
I have that one lyn thanks
turn the argument around...when you live in a smaller country...it's easier to see everything and then you want to go outside your bounds....not defending U. S. lack of foreign exposure..but
have that too JC thanks
And the ag5,14 following it is as lynxxx just clued . . .
Oh, sorry!
Which is it you need, then?
that's why I said the a's are killing
it's mostly an expense issue...
stop picking on me lol
Sorry for the delay Temple. Yes - since 1992 there is free inter-country between all EU countries
ag5.14 ag & going, going, g***
you can't really drive anywhere (for most americans - you are looking at days and days of driving before you even hit a border) so that means flying and crossing bodies of water... most familes cannot afford that
there are too many of the same
i mean to us, it is so wonderfully exotic when brits say they are gong on holiday to frence or italy or greese - no big ocean to cross. and of course there is the cost, in our large country there is a wide variety of economic strata...it seems standard of living in some european countries is much higher actually than ours.
ag4.6 & 5.14 - drop the last vowel of word just clued
the real comparison is what % of europeans have left europe... not left their countries... my state is bigger than almost every european country
ty !
I have a short list of things they should teach in public schools but don't. example: What do the various shapes and numbers of highway signs mean?
Temple!! I am IRISH. Not brit!! And yes - it is wonderful to travel across the continent with no frontiers.
HAHA, I can drive to France easily from where we are, TO - through the Chunnel. (We're in Kent). So it's not 'exotic' at all . . .
going to europe is only a dream to many
another example: What does it mean to claim a deduction?
soodle: i am aware you are irish.
that was it lyn tyvm now I have my ag's
agreed...i've been to 43 states...only missed new england 6 and W.V. ...could see those in one trip.....if every state had a different language and culture..imagine that
As is going to America, for many here, TO . . .
Me and my family have driven to Greece from Ireland. Not only did we not have to show passports, we didn't have to change money. it was a pleasure
sounds exotic to me
dart you must come to New England
soodle, most americans don't know their flags, either.
fireworks
my niece WAS going to college in Maine...just graduated tho
Yay boo !!

Congrats Boo!

Yes, it certainly does . . .
And is . . .
I have an American friend who goes to Yosemite a lot, and posts wonderful photos she takes there on Flickr - it's such breathtaking natural scenery! :)
Absolute paradise on earth . . .
uh...okay...i KNOW the irish flag. my statement should more propoerly have said: when my firends ata and haz and fmitch and rolin talk about going to france or greece or italy, it sounds so exotic.
I've never been to Yosemite
like muy jumping oin the car and going to florida or canada
I'm not sure why husband's sister was even married there
She lives within driving distance of it, westford - I'm talking about Laura, who you will see in the 'Friend Space' on my page as 'Fauxmage' . . .
Dont know if you Americans know it, but the single Euorpean currency , the Euro, has many faces. Each individual Euro county has its own coinage. My kids had a competition to see who could collect all the various coins from each country we passed through. They really loved it
I recall her picture is she a babbler too?
gee soodle, are you a pedant?
Yes, westford - she is a fairly new member.
Just call me Pedantic Pat!!
I could sing that name - say, do you have a black and white cat, Soodlebum? ;)
ag 6./27? please .. and Hi everyone
Pedantic Pat, Pedantic Pat, Pedantic Pat and his black and white cat . . . :P
I surely do. His name is Jess!!! LOL LOL
Erm, no - somehow I think 'Postman' works better there.
hi ru

HAHAHA! Really? :)
i dont either
sun has come out - going for a walk.run
Hi, ruru! :)

Wanna hear me sing it??? LOL

Oh I'm SO sorry, Soodlebum - and HER black and white cat! ;) Didn't realise you were female, until just now.
hmmmm....it's very bright. and a lovely golden color.
Sure, Soodlebum - take it away! You'll probably sing a lot better than me! ;)
ag ag ag thank you
small world my English friend just got a boxy little red car and has a black and white dog..said she feels like Pat the Postman had never heard of him
a + atlanta's state + not ma + vowel

I am stuck on the di section, currently.
I have 75 and it's slow going
JC do you use the list at all
Or is that 'currantly' - as raisins are flying around ? :P
48 left here
is it that late?
Yes, Silverback, of course I do - once I've typed in everything I can possibly see without it.
ohhh, good one jc
53 here
ohhh, race! race! race! race! hmmm, who shall i root for?
the fact you are even asking that question means I must go buy stronger roundup
Not me, featherbee - I'm a snail here. Plus, I have to leave the computer periodically, to take Albie outside.
Like now . . . back shortly.
oh, kje, my mom said today she saw some poison ivy roundup and almost bought it for me. (i have a lovely poison ivy plant nestled among my grandma's peonies.)
i immediately thought of you
my landlord gave me 3 dozen peonies
huge pink things
cut or to plant?
yeah, they're neat
3 dozen.....wow
cut - on about 2 foot stems
they're so beautiful mean poison ivy plants!
huge
flirting or just being nice?
will the roundup just get rid of the ivy and not harm the flowers?
his mom got ill on sunday and i went up and saw her
i don't know westford, that's my worry. plus, it's two feet away from our well cap.
he had accidentally given her two pills he thought were immodium but in fact were ambien... she was delirious
ahh. is she on the mend?
yikes!
egads, kje. The flowers sound gorgeous!!!
yes, she slept it off - but was hung over for about 2 days (she is probably 80 or so)

hey, scrabbs :-)
Une, my flower seedlings are growing but I didn't label the containers so I am unsure which are columbines
I saved the packages. Next yr I will label. This is my first yr with seeds.
Hi everyone! scrabs, the columbines often have large 3 leaf clover like leaves on long thin stems
OK, let me go look. I am on the back deck where I have all of my containers.
am I invisible again?

Hi Peri, hi west, hi bugsaw

A hummingbird was just here at the feeder! I heard it then saw it.
Hi bugsaw
not quite, tomorrow I bring zoe-anne to the new place and a few odds and ends. I decided to hire someone to clean my apt. I am too tired emotionally and physically
Good idea, Peri.
good idea peri it's worth it
so tomorrow will most likely be my last day here :(
hope they do a good job for you Peri
she is only charging me $50 to clean a one bedroom apt and I think it is worth it
Back again - but looks like I'm about to be dragged off to Yahoo to play some Word Racer . . .

Sorry, wrong box

hi Met! blew your lurk didn't ya?
hi
When I was doing volunteer work today, while on break, I wrote a personal letter, and then I forgot it in the office. I don't want anyone to read it
Sho did!!
Hey ruru
was it sealed scrabs?
How are you this evening, Ms Pug??
no7, 40
Its too bad you two lurk so much .. we enjoy your company
eh soso & you love?
Nope, I left it on the counter. If someone reads it they could find out it's mine, or maybe not.
OK, but I gotta talk to you.
no check written is the no 7/40
ooops

whats up honey?
no7 = negative + babble is a ****
It is no basebal

It is a letter to my shrink, so yeah, personal

scrabs, can you not ge tin to claim it?
Stop that, ruru
rude rude ruru
di7?
lol
It's a 45 min drive back there.
Can I call you, honey, or should I e-mail you??
your choice dear
oh.. I would go get it scrabs
i see thre choices: get it now; get it in the morning befor ethe staff arrives; leave it
get some ice cream on the way and make a trip of it
im back, didja miss me?
yep.. we did lbd
weigh the 45 minutes and the return against what you think the fall out would be
:-)
you bet!
I am not sure security would let me in tonight, so I could go early tomorrow
i probably would do it............ it would ease your mind
call ahead
I didn't say anything bad about me or anyone, it's just personal
still.... I would go get it...
did you leave it at work or at the volunteer place?
or go really early
I'll go early tomorrow then. Argh.
it is a tough situation. i still would do it. security would let you in, give them something they would believe about why you have to be there
IMHO
It's in the volunteer office.
oh
that should be okay if you get it in the a.m.
definitely get it in the morning.
It's not signed by me but there is a discussion of work so someone could figure out it is me
unless there's a cleaning crew who might find it
the cleaning people are clueless
are you a regular there? would htey even let you in after hours, even if to accompany you?
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH, AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
I am a moron.
dear - did a bunny attack you? ;)
No, I am mad at myself for this situation
not a moron, we have all done stuff like that - or at least i have.
are you sure you didn't fold it and put it in your pocket?
i drove home after a night class to find my purse - with the id i need to get in to work - was locked in the classroom.
re6,24 please?
I checked my car, my bag. I placed it on the counter in the office so I wouldn't forget it and then I forgot it.
hey, TO. just got back from PHL. went to the autograph party on Monday night
go first thing in the morning before opneing
joey - what party?
re6.24, to pull back or change your mind on an agreement
Well, I will have to go up early then. I think some people get in at 7 to speak with patients getting ready for surgery.
one way or another you must go.
TY for listening and giving suggestions, peeps
(((scrabs)))
ty dawger
Phillies had an autograph party benefit of ALS, all the players were there
yw
nice, jopey! did you kick them in the arse and tell them to start playing?
OK, then I must get garbage and recycleables out now, and shower tonight, so I can get an early start in the AM
Bye all! See you tomorrow.
yeah, see how well it worked for last night?
night, scrabs
:D :( you did not come to see me...
night night scrabs
next time. i would love to meet you.
joey i found a GREAT deal: after hours admission to independence hall via guided tour AND dinner at City Tavern - special via tourism website for $35. you can't even get the meal for that .
that is great. where did you find that?
phillyfunguide.com. my firend who was PR for the park says it's a real experience and it generally goes for double that
tourism is low and there are many deals
i just sent it to a friend of mine. she works right at 6th and something, close to Independence Hall. i know that she will like that. i went to the Reading Terminal Market for the first time on Saturday, what a place.
hey, peeps
(((TYGER!!!)))
where did you eat?
thx, dawg
tyger, i am so sorry for your loss
how ya doin' sweety?
Sang Kee. I was thrilled with it. Sang Kee was the first Chinese restaurant I had ever eaten at
just trying for a bit of escapism with the grid. :) can you believe that naptha isn't in enable??!?
tyger, hugs and love to you and your family
trying to keep my chin up, dawg
thx, une
more likely, Dr.G didn't add it to his list to be counted, Tyger
whatever, I couldn't believe when I tried it and was rejected!
same with noname
can't find the other re8 - I have the rebel word
joey where is sang kee?
apparently, we were headed for tragedy anyway. his GF said autopsy showed liver cancer
I'll get the report sometime soon
faith, change last letter to another vowel
thanks dawger
Oh my.
Sang Kee is in the Reading Terminal Market. It is also probably still in Chinatown, but we hit the one in the market
he didn't drink. dunno what would have caused it
tyger, I am so sorry for your loss
inthe front line where the steak place used to be? opp the gallery?
thx, peri
who knows where cancer comes from. it could be any number of things something he ate or was exposed to
i don't do directions real well and since it was my first time, have no idea where the steak place was, sorry
he worked for a garbage hauling company for several years for about 4 years starting when he was 18. maybe there was some exposure back then. I dunno
di7?
evening all
well, I should get outta here. time to fix food. later, all
hey, jes, bye, jes :)
you can't worry yourself over what coulda been, i guess in a way his passing this way was kinder. sorry, that may sound harsh

Niters welki ..Heya Trifs ..
Heya JC

Not bad .. Lots of work made the day go .. Broken dryer gave me an opportunity to fix something .. Drink in hand .. Can't be bad ..
re7,32 - in the Bible God said a re7 of Israel would come back
oh, thanks, forward! wow, seems so obvious now!
yw
glad it was obvious to you, tri 8^). I am biblically dense, it seems
me too
do you need another clue for the re7,32?
yeah
pam, try a left over piece of cloth is called a re*****
yes, thanks, faith
thanks, bugs!
yw
oh...looking for a different re7
ty faith and bugs
7/36 for me
now the biblical definition makes sense, right?
nm
ag 6/26
yes, it does, bugs
er 6/27
one to go. last no 7/36
Moo - think of a woman carrying a child and then drop the first letter
yeah, I got that one
for the re word Moo
tx bugs
ag 6/27?
one to go no7/36
Like my bills, matches ..
ag 6,21 is ag+ shortsighted is called my****
no + consonant + another name for a sporting encounter
great clue tor got Fireworks ty everyone for clues.
congrats matches
good clue tor!!!
got it Silverback?
I thought it was myopia
no moons clue was for the no7/40 thx

Silverback, Torgone gave you a clue for the no 7,36
sorry bugs...it has to be aga or before
nm...got it
fireworks!
Scoop and I just got fireworks...clues needed anyone??
no idea what that words is
well done you two!!! huzzah!
haha thnx!
our computer won't take the ag + my****, what's up with that! Ever happen to anyone else when you know the word but it won't go?
it's not what you think it is
I don't know a lot of these words either Moo, but if you click on the ? in the box in front of the word, it will tell you what it means
think of a misspelling of the next word
if you were using greek to represent one of the vowels you might add a letter
yeah I know bugs...just a lame word is all
;poooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooo ppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp pppp pppppppp000000000ooooooooo
My mistake Moo an Reabeckky

and a good evening to you too, pini!
and i agree, this grid is poopy
I was cluing the an word. I think you want the first ag. Is that right?
yes
but I got it
ap 7/40
Take the second ag and add an extra vowel to the ending Rebecky. My apologies Moo.
I'm still missing ag 7
no worries bugs...got it in the end
take the ag 6 helen...and add a letter in there somewhere
yes...Bugsaw...you are right . Thanks I had that one was mistaken on clue
ag 6 I'm assuming helen
THx
there is no ag7
Its 3.40am I am still struggling for the no7/36 zzzzzzz.......
ap7...
ap7 - take your first ma 6 word, drop the first letter and insert ap
monoply is a .... monamy is a no.....
Blimey! Glad to see I'm not the only one up this late and still struggling with this blasted grid, Silverback! :P
Or is that early - in the morning?!
JC this grid has been a stinker
no 7,36 no+consonant+ ehat we are supposed to do with our bills in the past tense
tx bugs
You'll get no argument from me about that, Silver.
what we are supposed to do
silverback, do you visit www.overheardindublin.com? it is one of my fave sites EVER. I always end up wheezing I am laughing so hard!
Thanks for that Bugsaw ...Fireworks
Thank you for that excellent clue, Bugsaw! :)
di7...
Well done Silverback. I have 2

Big ***per;no; short form of woman's name; di8 is pl
Yes - that di7 has me stumped . . .
are you still in ireland, silver?
di7 = 3 syllables
It means lungfish!
nice one helen, THANKS
sorry; I keep wandering off....
first sylable = when you take a drink of water from a punch bowl with a glass
God, that's a very strange word, helensgirlkid - and thank you ever so much for that clue!
Just passing it on - it ook three people to get it across to me this mroning!
second sylable = the word 2 year olds are known for
***Congratulations Silverback***
My brain keeps wandering off, Pam . . .
btw...it's diaper, not diper ;)
sheep d** + negative + s*** castle for di7
a fine pair we are, jc
No, it's nappy! :P
tx...got it
A pair of what, Pam - that's the question? :P
third sylable = first 2 letters of conjunction **d
ma 6/27 the second one
Oh, do not make me go there, jc. Do not, do not.
HAHAHA . . .
change the second vowel, moo
Away in a ******, no crib for his bed . . .
what a useless clue that was for di7 lol
ah...thought I tried that
tx pam
that's it for me
yw. Congrats!
these last two have been toughies
Hey Trif...D just called and they cancelled the concert because of a power outage! 311 never got on stage!
Erm, it worked for me, Silver - but then I think strangely.
JC don`t you ever sleep or are you like me ,a daytimer.
sorry Silverback, Too much wine here and if you don't know what another word for a lungfish is, how are you going to get it?
Naturally I sleep, Silver . . .
Just at odd times, sometimes . . .
oh, wow, bummer, kad!!!
When I'm out very late, I tend to need to 'unwind' - and when I have an outstanding grid to finish that I started over breakfast, I try to do that . . .
Unwinding is underrated...
Not if you're wound up like a pring, Pam! :P
See what you mean JC.
Ya the weather was lousy and then to have them not even get on stage is very disappointing (I was a nervous wreck about him driving though).
Grids like this are good for exhausting one mentally, to match their state of physical tiredness . . .
When I got home from Kathy Griffin, and after I tended to Pearl (my dog) and my elbow (I had fallen), I totally needed to unwind.
Doesn't that make sense? :P
LOL, JC
hello babble buds!
Oh sorry to hear it, Pam - hope it's not injured too badly?
I agree re: grids like this one... I am not at halfway yet. Although, I am wandering a bit.
Hello, DR!
Hi there, dr!
I completely understand JC.
Pam! I saw Kathy Griffin last weekend at the Wang Center....where did you see her?
Yes, I should shut up and get my nose right into this!
No, it was more sore and abraded thn actually hurt.
Hi JC, Pam, Trif, Silver, Kad, lurkers
hi all
Same place, Pride Night's show (sat), tri

Hi DR...sending scoop to bed in the hopes of getting ahead of her cold.
Scoop! nice photo of Oreo!
haha not exactly oreo just a stunt kitty..... oreo is a little bit afraid of sinks.... and water..... and basically everything
OH poor thing! I chatted with her the other day
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
Give her a big shot of that lovely sniffling, sneezing, coughing, sleep on your kitchen floor for 16 hours medicine
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
good evening, dear min! how is your loveliness today, Min?
LOL _ i took that in hgi school Trif and the biology teacher sent me home drunk
That medicine keeps us coop's up all night I'm afraid.
* high school
hi min, welcome to the grid. i'm tired... awards assembly at my school tonight and it lasted forever!
sounds like very "high" school, DR!
oh, hey, Kad - did you hear about Primo?
LOL Trif!
Grrroannn, Trif! :P
No...what about him?
: ) Trif !
He won the Prinicpal's Award for excellence in Art and Social Studies on Tuesday. WAY better than the time he got suspended!!!
:)
ROFL!! Yes, I should say so Trif ...
Ya...I heard about his awards...every exciting!
thanks DR!
Tri--had I known.... but, I wouldn't have been able to jump on the T to meet you as that night, I picked up Pearl from her day surgery. Otherwise, as I live on the Orange Line, that is totally doable most of the time
Congrats on tri's award!
help on th epo5/14 please
Drunk, dr, LOLOL! I am too tolerant on those meds...
YEs, Nyquil makes me drunk and morphine makes me talk
Huh huh huh ... She said Wang ..
oh, pam, it was madness! I was supposed to do something with Primo and Secondo, had a babysitter lined up for Tertiare. and then Secondo got all teenagery and pissy and bailed on us, so Primo and I BOOKED up to the Wang and juuuuust squeaked in. We had a BLAST
I'm tired too. I had carnival day at my school. In the morning I was in charge of limbo & in the afternoon I was in charge of the can toss. Was raising&lowering limbo stick all morning and picking up&setting up the cans all morning for the can toss activity.Then I had a summer school meeting after school. I was lifting & unpacking heavy boxes for two hours. Then I had an hr drive back home. I am EXHAUSTED! Sorry to carry on about my day. Anyway, won't last here very long.
Never had morphine. Nyquil has no real effect....
Went to Fire and Ice after....on the whole, a lovely date for Primo, though I doubt the evening's course of activities will win me Mother of the Year this year.
Sounds fab, tri! I loved it. Went with a friend.
It would if Primo's friends voted- they think I am way cool
Hi, Min
Wow MIn!! You should sit and relax!
po/5 peas in a *** + sep** (colour)
Put your feet up. min

Min, I am tired just reading that! you should have your feet up, and a nice cold G&T in hand!
You are cool, but primo's at that age...
yw
My day was conference calls all day.
LOL Trifioso!
min when is your school over? i htought we were the last school standing.. graduation on friday
no, no, Pam, he thinks I am cool too - I just still can't believe I took him to see HER
OH, I see now!
I wonder how much your show differed from the Friday one?
Well, a bit of talk about pride. And the 4 straight men in the audience....
She has a foul mouth--which I appreciated!
hmmm. yes. did the phrase "chas" come up a lot?
I am sure Primo has heard worse on the bus....
Oh yeah! and the pronoun/gender thing. ROFL
Friday is my lsat day of school Dorens. I cannot wait!
did you hear about the "sturdy german? THAT had me on the floor!

Babble brings a smile to my face pretty much every day
It is the chog really
I agree Jmc
Thank you Dr1965! It looks very inviting!
*puts lavender under min's pillow*
yes last night it was crazy
about 7 different conversations going at once
last night I had to completely give up and just romp in the chog
I am wondering when I will babble, now that the kids are free. I used to do it between bus stop runs, but now....
having children makes 7 conversations at one time easy
lots of fun
ugh, last night I fell asleep with THREE words left to go! v frustrating!
Trif! *gives her a little shake* that means you can Babble at will
and you can stop at will too
hmmm. but they will be home, and needing my attentions, jmc
oh, dear, that horse is WAY out of the barn!
pooh children ne4 to be ignored from time to time
its good for you and good for them
Being the mama means you can say "Go to your room. Mama needs to Babble."
I was asking my 23 YO Son about me as a parent and he said that I was a great parent BUT I was always around

well you can buy a couple of gallons for drinking/cooking and the flush can wait
py5?
i will bet that there is not a drop of waerr to be ought in the whole area
jmc, you put an eminem cd on in the room and I start looking for a cracked out white guy... I am very sensitive to music I guess. Now, put Harry Connick Jr in the room, and I can swing with that.

LOVE that song. And Happy Talk.
You've got to be taught To hate and fear You've got to be taught From year to Year It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be taught To be Afraid Of people whose eyes are oddly made And people whose skin Is a different shade You've got to be carefully taught
I don't know haw to play
I still remember the first time I saw that movie, on tv, and we were living in Hawaii at the time.
what about ja5 after me?
caddy start with the help above the chat
You've got to be taught Before it's too late Before you are 6 or 7 or 8 To hate all the people your relatives hate You've got to be carefully taught
welcome caddy, read the help and then ask question if you still don't understand
but it is better caddy to wait since the grid will change in less than 30 minutes to a new grid
