hi flosey how are you?
BR 6/7
fine thanks west, but wearing down, hubby was over for the weekend
hope all goes well for you
gi 6/7
thanks Dorens, and you too
it's a good kind of tired isn't it?
dorens, congrats to you too -- what's his name?
CR 6
happy times in babbleville
yes west, he's such a delight
Levi Phineas... somewhat unusual, I'll grant.. but he looks just adorable
halfway - fun grid so far
and how is your daughter besides exhausted?
Ti
fun names, dorens!
still concerns west
really, flosey!
great name dorens
will be hospitalized for a few more days
she will be okay flosey, yes?
is she still in the hospital?
wow another biggie!
good they're keeping her there
oh Flosey- must be difficult for all involved.
she
Westford, I''m still coming to terms with the Phineas part, but then again, Phoebe's middle name is Mica and that hasn't really been an issue.. we rarely hear the middle name
hello pav it's fun according to josh
she's strong and has been healthy throughout, is just being watched in case of further complications
WR 5 6 7
that's one of Julia Roberts' children's name his twin is Hazel
that's interesting... i have a friend whose grandbaby was named Hazel and I couldn't figure it out
Flosey, best wishes and thoughts for her
wr 5676
infections seem to be common with C-sections flosey dil got one after her second
thanks Dorens
Dorens i keep wondering where that name Phineas cmes from
it's greek to me, mlf
Dorens i agree lol
first was similar to Sandy's long long labor then finally C-section too bad they have to go through it
Dorens when i hear the name Hazel all i thik of is the witch from the cartoons
Phineas Fogg in Around the World in 80 Days--Jules Verne
my sis in law had a C section
no, actually that was a joke mlf.. think it is an ancientgreek name
I'll explain further in bio, rather than take up time and space here
Dorens makes mem think Roman
all of us old Howdy Doody fans remember Phineas T Bluster
mlf, my lovely ex-neighbour was Hazel
Its "old fashion" in a way
phines.. gree mythology, king of thrace. Phoebe was a greek name too, so my grandkids have something in common other than their parents
21 for 21 NBT!
Phoebe is a beautiful name how old is she?
well done Pav
good job pav!!
yess, phineas fogg is what i keep thinking of, jilli. and how many people want a grandson who reminds you of David Niven?
Phoebe was just three today, westford
I would, dorens! Loved David Niven!
oh how sweet almost the same birthday
TR 6
funny jilli, someone described ken (my beau) as having david niven good looks. and he is elegant ..
and Levi is a strong name I named my lladro shepherd boy Levi
made me think of Phineas T. Phreak, of the Fabulous Furry Freak brothers...oops, might be telling on myself, was an old comic from the 70's, found in headshops ;p
lucky you, dorens!
180 down how many?
yah, i kinda think so too jilli
headshop?
I read a very good autobiography by Niven The Moon's A Balloon I think it was called

i'm so sorry to hear your news, mrp. my thoughts go out to you and lickety.

Were did you find it please
Is that the tiny url in your profile?
I will look in a sec and get back to you
Thank you
flosey what an ordeal good you're staying with her
has been rough west but lots of support
good she was at the hospital so many get sent home too soon
west, there wasn't any chance of being sent home, everything happened very suddenly
except William took his time getting here wanted his own birthday apparently lol
lol west, what a wee angel he is
can't wait to see him
how is Daddy holding up?
he's amazing west, he's staying with her nights and I'll be with her days - she needs more help than hospital can supply
that's good he sounds like a gem
he is indeed
may I ask how old Sandra is?
she's 40 west
our 2nd daughter was married at 40 and they're hoping for a child she'll be 42 in Sept but she's very athletic and mothers that age are having babies more now than they used to
my other grandson was born when his mom was 43
I keep hoping they'll make wonderful parents
hi Flosey, just read your bio. You all must have been worried sick, so pleased she is on the mend. And that you are there!
should say I keep hoping. they will make wonderful parents
thanks lyn, we were indeed scared, at the time things happened very quickly
good luck west, hope they will
thanks flosey only bad thing is they're in CA and we're in RI
wish they were right next door
know that feeling west, my other grandson is in Toronto
how old is he?
he's 11, just recently earned his black belt in Tai kwan do
that's wonderful
he'll be a good big cousin
ty, he's looking forward to meeting new cousin
just receiving instant message from hubby, just arrived back home
my friend's dil just had twins and their big brother from dad's first marriage is 14 and so good to those babies
wow, will be a good baby sitter?
aww that is too sweet when older boys are so lovely to little ones
I think he will
glad mr flosey is home bet he's heading straight to bed
yes he is, apparently slept on the ferry home - 1 hr. 35 minute on ferry
that's a long ride
how much of a drive after that?
that's the quickest way home
a good hour + from ferry to Vancouver, on the other side only about 20 minutes to home.
wow
it's faster to take the float plane but then taxi or depend on someone to pick us up
float plane takes about 15 minutes
husband has a business trip to Seattle at the end of July
that's very close to Van isn't it?
lovely - has he been in Washington state before?
he has but I have never been
been as far as Portland
not sure how far from Van to Seattle - have only been there once - when we drove out in 1961 we went through Seattle at rush hour!! dumb move but by that time were anxious to get to Victoria
has anyone ever figured out why it's called 'rush' hour when no one moves? lol
are you coming with him west?
I would really love to
would be nice if you had time to come up to Canada and meet the several babblers in this area
that is very tempting I'd love to meet all of you
and my passport is even up to date
good for you, we let ours expire and really should renew
ours had expired but it wasn't hard to renew just had to get new pix
Excuse me what is the 8s please I have ST and Cr what am i missing
and of course pay the fee
ours have been expired for too many years, don't even have them anymore
You need a passport to get into Canada?
el I think
between US and Canada yes herin
no I need a passport to get back in to the US
that is weird
it is we always go through Canada when we drive to Michigan
could not find it, herin. Sorry
Ok. any clues on the 8's please
That is Ok Babble
only 8 I have is st8
bab had a super clue for the cr
I have the ST and CR

night Flosey
Thank you
hope to see you then flosey
How are you west?
thanks lyn knew it had something to do with that el word
I'm not bad herin we had 2 sunny days in a row
nice
it is !! hope it lasts
how are you? school done for now?
Its been rather cold here
that's an understatement
granddaughter gets back in 4 days have a feeling she'd not going to want to leave
Lynxx i shoved the heating on high today
West that time has flown
Mine has been on all day which is unusual
I know can't wait to hear all about her adventure down under
we watched Australia loved the scenery didn't care too much for the acting
quite an interesting story though
I have soup tonight for dinner
home made?
yep
best kind
Home made leek and potato and bacon soup
yum
Its good. A little too much stock
chicken beef or veggie?
chicken and veggie
I used to make soup all the time when the kids were home not so much any more
I should get back to doing it
its good you can freeze it. Perfect for winter when you can't be bothered
we have a great freezer too
it's old as the hills but still works great
Are you a veggie?
no
You can buy a huge dissected cow for beef
but I mostly make veg type soup..french onion, leek and lentil, split pea
we don't eat much beef but that is a good idea have to research butchers around here
You can get large amounts of beef or pig or chicken and split it about with friends some with veggies
I've heard they'll cut it up, wrap and label it for you
If you can get a few people together that will share that would be good
the only thing I worry about is a bad storm and losing power dil lost everything last ice storm they were without power for 12 days
See that is when you need to make sure you have a generator and are properly prepared. do it now for piece of mind
I remember everyone getting them for the millenium
If you are in an area prone to this wouldn't you feel better having one?
I would that or else I'd be roasting things in the fireplace
Its all about money and cost. We have an emergancy plan here
that's very wise
we have 2 cats and we don't want them hurt
our cats are our babies too
Even though i want to strangle the little black one at times
the two younger ones were out tonight and I heard a terrible screeching..I put on the light and opened the door and they both came running in
mr curtain shredder?
yep
we're lucky ours have never done that
Laptop charger, 4 mobile phone charges, one mobile phone, one ipod lead, one nds lead.
they like sharpening their claws on the upholstery though
both arms on my couch are gone
does he chew through the cords?
Yes he does normally when they are live
that's not good
he must think they're big mouse tails
No its not but there is not much I can do
did pandora ever do that?
suppertime ... bbl
I have no idea what he does or doesn't think. He made this darling little squeek last night that sounded like he needed a battery change. Pandora didn't but she had a really bad first 6 months
bye merk enjoy
Enjoy Merk
they all have their own personalities
oh yes. But Pandora had a really shtt kitten time. She was badly neglected.
she's lucky to have you then
how can anyone neglect an animal?
We think so too. I love having her about
I don't know but the person who had her hardly cleaned her dirt box left her locked up in a caravan and went ''oh well, we were meant to feed her 3 satchels of food not two.''
I don't talk to this person any more
don't blame you
That was the first of many poo things
one of our daughters has a little boy cat who was treated the same way
Little boy cat was also an abondoned kitty.
I don't think a lot of people realize how much they need companionship
morning all
SPRITEEEEEEEEE. HOpe you are better.
Cats can take it either way. Madam is one of those cats that love you when she wants
hi sprite I was just thinking of you and yes all good
hi Sprite!
nah, stubborn virus and bad body. Glad to see you though
herin cats love you in their own way but they do love you
sprite so sorry to hear that
hope Terra is cheering you up
nothing exciting, don't worry. Should be better in a couple of days.
Oh pooe apeirw.
Terra always makes me feel better. He is so funny and cute.
Oh Yes west. Last night I got the butt in the face and im like gee thanks Pandora then she turns around and snuggles my hand.
fingers on the wrong keys herin? lol
*giggles* I understood that was poor sprite... what does that say? ;)
Yes sorry. That was Oh Poor Sprite
that you know typonese?
probably that a bit of fever makes my brain work in funny ways, grin
We have been worried about you Sprite
am sorry, couldn't leave my bed for a couple of days so couldn't leave a message. Had a bit of a relapse yesterday. Hope to be back on feet again now.
last I talked to you sprite you were starting the martial arts training thought that's where you were
oh, that is only once a week, west. First time went well, but I overdid things 2nd time. After summer break I will try and find a middle way :)
Well as long as you are better
that's best sprite
you have to be strong enough to row to Denmark
I hope I am better. But errrrr row to Denmark? Am I going to?
remember when the Danish girl was on here and you said you'd love to go to Denmark someday to canoe and I misread it as canoe to Denmark?
I am watching Masterchief and I have to so disagree with the way its run
ah LOL yes! Going there, and canoe locally. I'd love to. It is a beautiful country.
don't know what that is herin
so I've heard sprite I'd love to spend a year going all over Europe
Its a stupid cooking show. They took it from England and made a local version which is really not good.
if you ever do, west, please let's meet!
absolutely
I love you sprite but you are a bit to far to row to
I certainly am, lady. If we ever meet, there will be some planes involved :)
I wish Sprite
I wish I could make myself tiny enough to go through the internet and pop up where you both are
God yes. Beam me over, Scotty!
it's after 5 a.m. so I'll say bye for now
take care herin and get better sprite nice seeing both of you
bye west, I hope you can get some sleep
Goodnight west
Sprite I hope you feel better soon
odd gr4 today. Very tight bottom corners.
Tis it is
I need to back up my laptop as I am taking it in to get fixed
good for you
Finally. Had a mega drama getting someone to speak to me about it
backing up is a good thing, though boring
good morning everyone
hi jacq
It wont take more than a few minutes as everything is in folders
i hope all is well in your wee corners of the universe
if it is only documents, it is a breeze indeed
heya sprite
Mozilla have made it really easy to back up
someone please stop me trying french for church!
stop sprite!!
ha thanks!
lol
Sorry my net froze when i was backing up Mozilla
ohhhhh it's pouring here
brb
jacq needs to save some stuff :)
Clue please for the cr 8/45 and 9/66
it means to render its an English spelling
Opps it means to Render (a language)
thanks lady!
Think French NO food if that helps
Sprite I am really fanatical about putting all my documents into folders on my laptop desktop
so am I. But backing up programs is a lot harder to do.
I am not worried about programs as I can always reinstal stuff. But you can't replace images
Thanks got them
good Gran sorry if that was a tad long winded
damned rain, have to wash the bedding again
back sorry
darn jacq, how irkitating!
extremely annoyifying as well
agrees
if i hadn't sat to babble the chances are i would have seen it
but now you both have something to nag about and nice people to nag about it to...
Oh well Jac
lol no nagging am done
nagging is good :)
I have taken to doing about a half load every day and hanging it up in the bathroom to dry as it is so cold and wet. Bedding gets washed then put in the dryer at the laundry matt
speedy fireworks. Off to lie down again and heal up further. *hugs*
Oh Wow well done Get better soon sprite
take care sprite
Fireworks!
wtg Merk!!!!
geesh Well done Merk
Jac it looks like us two now
yup
am nowhere near fireworks
neither am I
ty
but i do have the m's greyed out LOL
It's unusual to finish the grid on a weekday when I am in China. Usually I much too busy and this one was long, but I did it off and on during free time all day.
well done Merk
how bad is it?
i have 145 words already but can't find anymore
ouch
it's good so far i suppose
and hello kje
I am watching a police show and this woman had the crap beaten out of her by her husband. I said that I could do their job as I would be more than too happy to be the crap out of them with the batons
gm
Hello my darling KJe
men like that are pigs
That is why i want to get into legal
and deserve to be chained on a remote rock in the middle of the ocean soemwhere with only a rusty spoon
hi herin
indeed jac
my ex was violent typical coward
OH I like that idea Jac. I tried to stab my ex with a fork. He also threw dinner at me so I through the plate and food back ate him
i did consider killing my ex lol but i thought i better get it right when i threw him down the stairs or he's get back up and kill me
wow jac... so glad you left
me too, i regret meeting him and marrying him, but if i had the time back i don't know if i would do it again differently, i do have two beautiful daughters
Well I am glad you are out of it now Jac. I gotso shitty when my teacher in my Family Law class said oh you see these women like in the movies that stash money and I told her that was total bs and that is what my friend did and what I would have done if i could
it has made you who you are, in a way, but just so sorry you had to go through that
i got nothing from it all i let him walk away with all the money and leave me with the debt because i just wanted my life back
anyway that s the past and i won't let it cloud my future
I wish as I am studying Legal Process our teachers would teach us stuff
it's not something people can understand unless they work in a shelter or have experienced it, theory is always slanted towards a rosy ending
But I class what has happened as in the past and it is not going to make me any different today
well done lady!!!
nah - the stats are bad.... leading cause of death in women between ages 18-40 is domestic violence
nods, and the cycle repeats itself
herin - what exactly are you studying to be?
through generations
THat is why I am studying my arse off and getting high marks. Right now KJE Advanced Diploma of Business Legal Practice combined with Diploma of Business. I hope to get into Law. I need to do this course to get into law. With this course I can get into business
well done lady!!! i wish you all the best in your studies
go herin!
you have taken on a helluva workload, but you're focussed and very intelligent
Work load is all about prioritising. Spend time on travel reading the work. I have so far got 5 High Distinctions 1 credit and 1 pass
No that was not a credit it was a distinction (my bad)
wow!! well done you!!!!
she'll rule the world someday, jac ; )
yes she will, and tha can only be a good thing for womankind!!
I have a lot of people that are supporting me
good, it all helps make the study worthwhile
It does. Thank you KJE
ok time for a wee break, am word blind now
be back soon, have fun and fireworks ladies

Later Jac
KJe what are you doing up at such an early hour
ducking in before dropping into bed -- 80 left. Is there a list anywhere? (and good on ya herin...)
I have to be at work before 7 herin... i am back on the wards and my team was on call last night
Hi JWR yes lickety as posted on licketys list. Be patient as Lickety is busy and has very ill family
OH KJE poor you
ty herin. I didn't look at Lickety because I thought he'd be busy with his dad and all. I'll check into the chat log for updates when I wake. bye all.
nah - it will be fun... i like teaching
He did drop in.
Teaching?
yes... i attend over a team of residents, interns, and med students
kje, are you saying fewer women 18 to 40 die from disease than domestic violence?
That sounds interesting. my old friend is a doctor now and she enjoyed being an Intern
no br
but in young women, it is one of the leading causes of death, and in some age brackets, the #1 cause
who stats
it is barbaric
that is true... but it is accepted, defended, and institutionalized in many places
If you can have Alert why can't I have lert
i am at 184 and have come to a halt
have it herin, but enable will not
you are a wizard, kje
I ahve 58 left and stuck
just ignore the person behind the curtain, BR
I have no 8s or 9s - what do they start with
Cr
morning peeps -how is the grid today?
well, that explains my missing Cs then
CR 8 / 9
interesting wolvie
omg - found them herin! TY
el 8 and st
looking
hey - thanks for the 8/9 tip fern
and babble
Morning, and hello. I declare I am going to finish this one today. I stopped yesterday to watch a movie...
hi red
gm red
sorry I need to fix mozilla
hello, H
GM everyone!, OffersCoffee, itsKona Blend...
the el base is the plural of a funeral lament
several funeral-related words in the grid
ty br
got the base
ty babble
and now the 8
like the painting BR
Sorry mozilla is acting up
st 7 is a step: st**de and lung substitute: ***l; pl
lung substitute
now there is a thought
I am having trouble with the lung substitute.
its not like Hetastarch.
LOL red
me too
all i can think of is vent
me three
that's coz you are not underwater
fishy?
LOLOL
got it
OOOOh, got it now.
ahhhh
Thanks for the Fish!
we are too literal, red
ty lynxx and babble again
yes kje, not creative. but you make very creative cakes.
brb
i would love to have a piece of cake right now... sigh
Well, yes.
KJE, I hate to bring this up, but can you believe Michael Jackson had DIPRIVAN in the house? Amazing.
red... i bet he had docs that would give him whatever he wanted... should be prosecuted as drug dealers
they are thinking of it from what i understand kje - that should be a crime
what is Diprivan?
it is a shame what rules can be bent for money
they really should be.I mean its one thing to prescribe a few extraLortabs, but Diprivan....there is no reason for a person to have an amnesiac in the house....good lord, Wonder if MJ peed green.
it is a crime, but challenging to prosecute... however, there is no indication for propofol at home, period.... can't even dream one up
it's used to put one under for surgery, right kje?
it is used in ICU settings
Used for sedation, and also for some outpatient type surgeries, for intubated patients.
we rarely use it anymore, as it has a bad side effect profile
ah - i had heard it was for sedation during surgery. Not a doc obviously. :-)
really - what have you moved on to?
Wacko Jackson - maybe thats why he was called it. All sounds out of control. Such a waste
can cause severe myopathies if used more than very briefly
Yes used for both, they used it for my surgery....
yes, peri-op is OK, I am thin king in ICU settings where it used to be commonly used to sedate intubated patients.... until we saw all the complications... now use other sedatives
When I saw that syringe full, I freaked out...
Yes, any medication that can make one pee sea green after a day should be suspected.
LOLOL red
you think that is a warning sign, huh?
so - if someone sedated MJ with this stuff, it could kill him easily, or ....
are those without tubes, extubated?
well, the green would bother me, I must admit. ;-)
Yes Wolvie, but it would be very apparent in the autopsy if he had it, it doesnt just go away.
save that term for the next grid babble!
actually, yes br - when we take tube out we extubate
well they are still waiting for the tox screens, so it might show up
Sould never use Diprivan without a tube, Unless there is someone prepared to intubate immediately present.
hi all
hi jmc
OK, must run - see you all later, must get to work
hello, jmc
Morning JMC.
Bye kje. enjoy your new team.
hi and bye jmc

I just found Gr**, guess the PB will be full today.
170 here
I just updated mozilla so it should behave
top right e singleton for nbt though
ty red I hadn't seen it yet
if it doesn't behave you can send it to its room
I was seriously going to start beating Mozilla into working. Silly thing
corporal punishment herin!
can't help jmcn, haven't got that one either
don't have that e yet either
el5.10 superior to others
Yep. I did threaten it with IE8
have that one
ty lynxxx but that is off the far right e
I meant the second e from the left at the top - only one word from that. sorry
there is an ed 5 that relaties to the roman empire....
just got it
and a pl.
ie8 or Le8?
this e was duck related. ;-)
Not a clue jmc! Internet explorer 8
no jmc, cr 8,9 - st 8, el 8
lol red!
i was looking for the duck word but my lack of spelling ability has once again raised its ugly head
ei 4 go back to the e next to it
duck = ei**rdown
ty wolvie -- I wanted an s in that word
nbt!
you wouldn't believe what i want. ;-0
cool!
do tell wolvie--
Yaaay jmc.
lol - it was just a phrase for a laugh
THat is Internet Explorera 8 I am sorry my mozilla is being unbelieveable stupid
I think I will go make some coffee

NBT, so far so good
Goodnight all...fading fast
hmmm mymuse pb for you!
night lynxxx pleasant dreams :)
nite lynxx
bye lynxxx
hmmm, what did I do jm?
look back at 6:41
ah yes - that will get us all
ok, but I hadn't looked at it yet :P
gosh I wish I had a photo of the wallpaper from my teen years
does that get me a reprieve?
it was bright and dark blue and purple roses!
in book, yes
my book lol
well who am I to argue with wolvie!
lol thank you
ours in the kitchen was this wonky grey brick with the ugliest color pink flowers with vines. I still have nightmares
*gives mymuse a get out of pb free card*
LOL - anyone can argue with me
wolvie I'm a lawyer -- I CAN argue with anyone--:-)
LOL - no doubt.
hey jm - you probably have ret**** some cases, yes?
can you tell i finally broke down and started looking for re's? ;-)
hello all, didn't yesterday's puzzle also have 263 words?
rarely
don't know peri I took yesterday off
hi peri - i know it had a lot
hi peri
LOL..i got puzzled by that for a few seconds too peri
good for you jm :-)
but ty wolvie for the clue
;-)
why? for taking the day off?
hi zooz and peri btw
no no for having rarely re ***** stuff
Hello Jmc :-)
if a case is re***** the lawyer is almost always a new lawyer
ahh finaly got the clue..lol..
well, you can tell I'm not a lawyer. ;-)
just a ret**** contractor
I am guessing without looking at lickety that 100 of the 263 words are re words
I have 100 words left to find - no list yet - i bet you are right
24 could be... LOL
Not looked yet..but there does seem to be a lot of `r` words
retired is not here
true - my bad
I plead re overload
are you imparting knowledge to us non-list lookers mom?
lol wolvie
just found a couple of ro's.. so >24, LOL.
No... just logic
And I am a list user extraordinaire!
true I didn't even look at the r on the gr4! silly lawyer!
But I get you JMC... sometimes it feels like a hundred with the re words!
<24
You are right jmc... wrong symbol!
hey - I just cleared that pesky 2 t box - it was tr**e and more so lol
:-P I went to Rice where pretty much everyone was a mathmatition or scientist of some stripe
typed papers I could not understand for a living there
LOL.
wtg wolvie
lots of law students where i went to school - michigan. ;-)
they wanted me to go on to grad school in law - love that debt
I actually had a friend who quit physics when he realized he had written a paper with no english words in it!
Went to a state college... all scholarship... never paid a dime!
95 left - I think I will have to break out the list
I left college and law school with no debt -- those were the days!
rofl - too funny jm
184 left
I think I got a pretty good education there.
I would have had debt if i had gone to grad school
help with c words pls
I went to a state law school
Michigan is a state school, just not mich state. ;-)
My friend's daughter is going to Barnard in the Fall... $52K a year... can you even imagine????
cr 5/6 is what whales eat I think
thanks jmc
I can imagine because my son is at GWU for the tune of $52 a year
peri - fish catch bucket, spicy food,
OMG... just craziness.
thanks Wolvie
NBT
oh my God - that is a huge cost to bear
fortunately he did the first 2 years at community college
help with 8's and 9 pls
that is the only way to do it.
I could stand the fee (even though it is = to my annual salary) except. . .
I told my daughter that may be her plan... we have one of the top 10 community colleges in the country 2 miles away.
got none peri there is a el8 and cr8 and that is all I know
peri the cr 8 & 9 go off the spicy food to become, and past tense
thanks, will look
a profession was whining about how poor the school was with the kids living in palatial dorms
The core courses are the same everywhere... and your diploma reads where you graduated from, not where you began
got the spicy food but can't figure out the 8 and 9
ott peri, I have 2 left to find myself
*professor
got the cr8 and 9 thanks Wolvie!!
well I told him he is my retirement plan now -- used what was let after the crash to pan the tuition
I was going to go to grad school, but decided to have my daughter instead... from my state school I got into 3 ivy league grad programs... sooo
so give peri. . .
use the third vowel at the end of the food then 2 more letters to "become" , then past tense it
got them from Wolvies clue
yvw peri
Yes please peri...
I'
I had a late marriage and late kid so college and law school was done
still not getting it peri
Maybe I have the "food" wrong... is it the cr 6/21???
I can't do any better with cluing for the cr8/9
yes mom
jmc - look at my clue at 7:09 and 7:11
we are talking jambalaya here right?
yes, jmc
yes mom - look at the 7:11 clue
my third vowel dead ends to an I or a G
nooo - it goes to an s
bl
then an e
if you go the other way
ooooH got it
bye peri
hi piano man
hi piano
morning
forget it... just not seeing it right now...
change the final vowel mom
i have cr5/12, cr 6/21 for 2, the cr 8 & 9, what am i missing?
mom - I just spelled it for you i to s then e then past
creels
oops
*puts coffee in PB*
and I even had that already - tried it again. lol
yep - i am definitely there
lol
ok..got it now... sorry, but the clue was to use the final vowel.... which led me to an I or a G only... thanks so much for sticking with me, LOL!
lol more PB for Wolvie ...
I do that all the time -- keep typing the words I already found
wtg mom
good deal mom
wolvie is now observing radio silence
lol i have too -i'll never finish
lol
okay I am going to go get ready for work -- see if I can be useful today
bbl
bye jmc

Wow. Another big puzzle. Morning, all.
hi judi
morning
heya Mom and judi
Hiya, Jacq!
hi jacq
hi Judi, mom, jac
heya muse
sigh..yet another one that wont get finished..morning everyone;)
heya crossy
hi cross
hi cross
haven't finished one in two weeks crossy
Hiya, Crossy!
something important to pass along to you all....
yes cross?
morning, babblers! haven't played in awhile. how is everyone?
hi fq
OK Crossy... don't leave us hanging!
Hi, fuqua! S'all goooood.
morning.. all well here
hi fqua,
hi dorens
hi Dorens
my brother just got back from las vegas he and his wife had thier credit cards cleaned out to the tune of 15 thousand dollars whithout them knowing about it.the crooks can now get all the credit card information off them new imbedded chips in credit cards and debit cards REMOTELY!!! o had to send them plane fare to get home.so please google "rfid protections"
oh no
oh wow
OMG... that's just crazy...
poor them
whoa - thanks for the warning - how much are they on the hook for?
thank God you were able to get them home!
surely they can't be liable for that Crossy?
its scary actually,my cards dont have the chips..yet..but in the next year or so,we will have no choice
they are working with the credit card company now and it looks like they will be covered.but it may take many weeks to get it orginized
i've had credit cards stolen in the past and the companies were very good about not charging me for any of it
very scary stuff crossy
so everyone read up on this rfid.scam and protect yourself
Sorry to read about that crossy..bad times.
As long as the charges are in dispute by the customer, the credit card company can't charge you any fees or interest or attempt to collect the disputed amount. Thank goodness for consumer protections.
Well, whoever scammed them - I hope they get the luck they deserve! All Bad!
indeed judi..but its very scary that thier cards can be compromised while still in thier purse or wallet!!
yes thats what worries me.
Yes, that is very discomforting, Crossy. Geesh. Now we all have to go out and buy lead-lined purses.
lol judi... http://www.skymall.com/shopping/detail .htm?pid=102730586&c=10073
not quite that bad..yet
this is the best ive found so far
good morning Babblers :)
Oh, crikey. Skymall. Must be a lead-lined purse. Too heavy to carry around,though. Maybe just a lead-line wallet for starters. Or a chip scrambler.
looks like they are calling this `smishing`
hello everyone...that is awful crossy
I just went to a site where the sleeves that protect your cards/passports are about $5 each! Honestly... passports and credit cards should just come with them!
hello nono
think i need to read back to see why we need lead lined purses
hello Annie
i checked my clipless card,it is good till july 2011 and maybe by that time they will be more orginized
http://www.idstronghold.com/?gclid=CPu H7quQwZsCFQRM5Qode1NgBg
hi zooz, nono
hi annie
first ive ever heard of this was when i got the collect call from my brother in las vegas..:(
wolvie, good morning
Morning again. I have been trying to watch a film, but I can seem to only sit through 30 min at a time...
red, what are you watching?
Little ADD this a.m., Red?
lol red join me in babble i have a great attention....wheeee! a butterfly:)
hi again red
Its a film about the COmrades Marathon in South Africa. I'm never that good at sitting still for that long, but this movie is a little slow, with some pretty panning shots, but still...
OMG Crossy that is indeed scarey . Am glad they won't be liable for all that but it sure is a mess i'm sure
lol want some real fun red? watch a british dart tourney lol
Fast forward through that sucker.
Oh Cross, thats not something I can handle.
was a huge mess nono
Hey Red - the Comrades Marathon passes very close to my home - was run a few weeks ago for 2009
ever wetern union 1600 dollers? they really look at you funny lol
hi ursh
Yes, its in June each year right Hursh? Its really the worlds toughest race.
Probably thought you were a terrorist, Crossy.
Ursh, sorry to call you hursh.
Yes Red - in my opinion only mad people run the Comrades!!
not to worry red,im the typo king today and in fine form even for me;))
I would love to have that experience, but I am probably never going to have that kind of conditioning. I so admire those runners.
mornin babblers
hi eva
slit
Yes Annie!
KwaZulu Natal very hilly and the down slopes are really hard to do
thanks annie!
oh dear, Im going, Im going >>>>>>>
ty annie
It's a really incredible race. Makes everything else look tame.
lol red,ever read "the long walk" by stephen king? now thats picking them up and layin em down!:)
Have to admit, I am not a fan of Stephen King, dont know why but I am just not.
That's going back a bit, Crossy. I liked his short stories like that. "The Fog" was another favorite.
if you are a running/walking fan,you have to read that one
Well Red - if you every decide to run - you know where to stay - door always open
Crossy how do you know if your cards have this chip?
his new stuff is quite complex and detailed "liseys story" "duma key " etc
well folks i have 60 left - going to take a long break. :-) bbl
bye Wolvie
My guess is that if you have a hologram on your card it has the chip... it seems like the ones that can just be passed over a machine (like speed pass) have this technology.
you can actually see it nono on the left side of the card.it is gold in colour and about 1/2 inch square
I know my passport has the chip
Ooh ursh, so very nice of you. I have never been to South Africa, and am some day keen to see the parks... I think of SA as very different from the parts o f Africa that Ihave been to (Kenya, Sudan Liberia etc.)... the closest I might get to COmrades would be being a volunteer.
all U.s passports since 2006 have had the chip
And it came with all kinds of instructions about not getting it wet so as not to ruin the chip... think it might have mentioned the identity theft element!
crossy...do they think this happened at the airport or in Vegas?
How do you protect your cards from theft then?
right in the vegas casino it seems phae
http://www.skymall.com/shopping/detail .htm?pid=102730586&c=10073
you can get theese wallets or card sleeves
Ahhh, My passport is safe, until I renew in 2012 then.
sigh of relief, none of my cards seem to have it
did they use an atm there?
Maybe I wont renew though, I have not been out of the country now for at least 2 years....
no phae,they did not
I put up a link for the sleeves which are $5 - $6 bucks ... just googled RFID Protection... first one that came up
red.... renew.... pain in the patootie to get a new one.
thanks mom, will do that
and now you need one for Canada and Mexico.
That is proibably true Mom, I woud have to find all sortsof ID's... but I have actually never been to Mexico, which is wierd, given where I have been...
Really... I just went through it red...
lol i have not been out of canada since 66 and if i ever need to im sure ill go through living hell to get everything organized;/
red, I know I am late but I want to congratulate you on selling your house...must be a tremendous relief for you
I have to get my kid one now because we want to go to Canada in October.
Mmm. We have to renew our passports in 2012, too. Not that I plan on travelling, but you never know when the opportunity might arise.
Much easier to obtain when time is not a factor. No worries.
i have a passcard, not a passport
Annie, not late at all. I am feeling better each day, its amazing how much that had dragged on me. thanks you!
lol yaa for mom:) you will have to come visit;)
I really have to get my kids done this week....
Are you near Toronto???
3 hours north of the big smoke mom
Phae does the pass card enable you to go to Just Canada and Mex or everywhere?
Just Canada and Mexico and one other place (can't recall)...
Puerto Rico, maybe?
Crossy... pretend I am an idiot... what is "the big smoke????"
we avoid toronto whenever possible;/
Ahhh, no Point then. I generally end up in Africa, which sounds exotic, but is usually just work.
No... PR and the US VI are territories...
Good morning/day to all.
I think it's good as long as you don't fly...not sure tho
Is the big smoke Toronto???
sorry mom thats what we call toronto in the summertime..its polution index can get ugly under the right condition..think boston detroit etc
Hi scrabs
Morning Scrabbler! you are getting closer each day to your new job!!!
Morning Scrabs!
12 wks from tomorrow!
Hiya, Scrabbs!
but im a tad biased as im a country boy and despise the cities anyways
I just got my Enhanced Driver's License so that I can enter your country TOMORROW, Cwossy!
Cool Scrabbs!
yaa for scrabbs! come up here and bring your kayack!!
My friend's has rented a home on Lake Erie, in Fort Erie, for 18 days.
What is this enhanced drivers license you speak of?
I go crazy around Toronto, Cwossy--401, 405, Don Mills Pwky, etc---driving is a nightmare.
OK... here is the skinny on the passport card ---
Cheaper passport cards can only be used for land and sea travel between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and the Caribbean. For any air travel outside of the U.S., you need a traditional passport.
just get on the 401 west..then grab 400 north and keep going scrabbs
Judi, to enter Mexico and Canada, as of June 1st, one must have either an EDL or passport.
Ah. Interesting. What do you have to do to get the EDL?
Ok, will stick with passport. though if one just wants to go to bermuda, not a bad situation.
passcard Scrabbs
Submit application, photo ID, SS card, certified birth certificate, and a bill or bank statement with your name and address on it.
Apparently, from what I read, you can get into these places without it, you just can't come home... so, if you want to stay somewhere, LOL!
Yes, needed in order to re-enter the US.
Crazy. Sounds simple enough though. Who do you submit the application to? Is it just a DMV form?
I spent 65 minutes at the DMV, had a new photo taken, and received my new card and a protective sleeve 10 days later.
an EDL is almost a necessity if you live in a border state
Go to the DMV, Judi. read info on their web site first for requirements.
NJ does not issue enhanced driver's licenses
Cool. And what do they charge you for that?
It seems like a very good idea if living near canada or mexico. For me, If I drive any which way, I end up either in the ocean or Georgia.
good morning all
Here in the Buffalo-Niagara region people go to Canada frequently, and many people rent or have summer homes in Ca.
good morning Boo
Hi Boobear!
hi Nono and Scrab
Even to see Niagara Falls the view is much better from the Ca side. I was last there 2 yrs ago.
ok as interesting as this conversation is, I really need to dive into the grid and make some progress.... will chat later..... splash....
I just dove in too, Nanette!
On a sad note my sister's 10 yr old bunny, Snowy, a Lop, died a few hrs ago after suffering seizures overnight. He died just before he was to be euthanized at the emergency vet ctr. They are heartbroken.
Awww. Poor Snowy. ((((sympathy))))
Sad..sorry to hear that scrabs :-(
oh so sorry to hear that Scrabs. It is so hard to loss a beloved pet
10 yrs old is very elderly for a rabbit. And he was hopping around between episodes. He died at the vet's--their 3rd visit in less than 24 hrs. He had a great life!
scrabbs, Snowy had a good life and now he is in Bunny Heaven.
Yes, he is happy and with his bunny buddies in Rabbit Heaven!
Hope we are all that lucky, no?
To pass peacefully and give our loved ones time to say good-bye.
amen
yes, indeed. I had a very interesting conversation with my mother on that subject this weekend -- 80, in good health, but thinking about what she wants as she ages.
Hi FV!
hey scrabbs!
hi varina
hi annie!
Yes, do we really want to get old? Aging has its disadvantages, physically, mentally.
I am a living testament to that scrabbs, but, of course, we have no choice
Yep, God is in charge.
personally, if I knew what to do so I would die quickly and in good health up to that moment, I would do it (other than suicide, of course.)
I'm not afraid of dying, just of outliving my quality of life.
Well said, FV.
varina, exactly

hey all
hi nbj
Heyas kids ..
i have a question. how do you tell a teenager not to hang out at your house so much?
hard one jasmine, on on ehand it's flattering on the other irritating as hell
clue for di 5/16
ge
heya Tor
Give him some work to do ..
he's a friend of my son's, and even my son is getting tired of him
you can suggest that as it's a nice day they might want to walk the dog?
or suggest that they visit another friend
that way your son can say he's coming home for a nap or something
my daughter has/had a friend like that she was really unhappy at home and was always at mine
no easy way to do it
i gave him work, then he keeps showing up for more (i pay him)
ahhhhh
then try letting him overhear you speaking about budgetting
but his work ethic is, how shall we say it, not super. he takes LOTS of breaks to chat and play games and have snacks
my son likes him, but too much of anyone gets old
nods i totally understand
i may have to resort to the direct approach

Oh noes! What's wrong?
hi katie
why one hand trif?
dropped a paving stone on the right one, crushing my index finger. had the nail aspirated, which helped, some, but the pain is surprisingly bad
Ouch!
Ouch!
snap torgone
Poor Trifs!
it's relative...i did deliver 2 eight pound girls w/out epidural.....but this is aching, which gets so tirimng
lmao
and my house is a disaster, and i have so much to do, amd I am suitting on my bum, moaninng
sound very painful
you have every right
I think it's a good enough reason to sit around moaning trif
time to get the kids in action (good luck with that one!)
i actually can/t believe how much it hurts. it is doing that flintstobne's thing, where it like throbs
ahhhh like a tom and jerry thumb
we are not used to 3 days of sun in a row
pklease, secondo just asked meto get up and make her some pasta. ummm. NO
is that why you were moving paving stones?
i was trying to fix the pump in the pond,
good time for her to learn pasta making
tor! you were saying last night that you had 263 words to go = and lkook how many words there are today!
I know .. Yesterday I didn't really have time ..
oooo psychic!
keep you hand above the heart and it will help some with the pain
Quite the coincidence ..
okthanks. i hadice on it, but now that it is dressed i cant do that
Ata are you there?
di 5 following filth -- just can't spot anything to fit in there
plural it
ty -- couldn't see that!
deja vu all over again hi bab
hello, west
bbl this is getting way worse....
I'm here!
Hello, just wondering whether you caught JB on radio 1 and totally unrelated what the neighbour did this time
one hour and seven mins lol
mad mad mad neighbour lol
threw our bench over a 6 foot fence into a field!
strong mad mad mad neighbour!!!
Feel better Trifs x
other neighbour called the police and is going to get him charged with criminal damage. ha!
you have to draw a line somewhere, I was reading all the other things he had done
yes, he's been a nightmare for about 3 years now
physically threatened all the women here, smacked one of them across the face, refuses to pay his share of the maintenance etc etc etc etc
goodness I would only be physically threatened one time!
it must be such a strain having to live with that
slapped someone and didn't get charged with assault?
slapping is a battery
this will be the 2nd time we've called the police - before when he smacked Jenny
not here, I guess!
ty for the clarification : )
didn't get charged with assault and battery?
she needs to tell them she wants to press charges
ge5?
what surprises me is there must be recourse in the occupancy agreement
this time, she's going to. he's going to get hit with criminal damage, threatening behaviour and something else
not to mention she should get a stay away order and look into bringing a civil damages claim
thats good
obviously not good that he did it but good he is going to have to answer for it
you'd never get a restraining order on the basis of 1 incident
ge + cover
good - cuz hitting is unacceptable... comes under the everything you needed to know you learned in kindergarten rule
ty
anyway, we all need to be able to sit down and talk to him in management meetings!
not to mention physically threatening your neighbor!
surely he is in brach of the residents assoc or whatever you have in place there Ata? Oh and Hi all.
hi FM
absolutely he is!
seems that you should be able to boot him out
Hey jmc
it's not very easy to force someone to sell their house ...
he hit her!!!! he needs to be prosecuted... as well as kicked out - he needs to be taught to stop that
happens ata that is why they have those rules
hi Ata and FMitch
But there are laws on the lease agreements if that is your set up
it is not just so everyone has the same curtains
oh yes, but no-one wanted to be bothered, it's expensive and complicated
re 6/18 following put a match to again?
no-one wants to spend money on him!!
but now we've all Had Enough
put the floor down again
I cannot imagine putting up with three years
gr 6/24 clue please
well i suggest the women of the community get together and get things sorted for heaven sake!
i can not imagine a grown man thinking he can slap her and get away with it
before that one jmc
oh its not exactly constant. we ignore him 99% of the time
gr+ anagram of **** of Man or Wight
getting away with it enables more of the same
then don't have it yet cyber
the only way to deal with a bully is to stand up to the bully -- they never get better on their oen
*own
re 6 == add, do the laces again
yes yes I KNOW. but it's VERY difficult and very complicated to force someone out from their 100% owned house. And I wouldn't call the police on someone if they slapped me once, either. twice, certainly!
have that one too babrab
ty jmc
if the someone was someone I loved I would probably be more tolerant (since I probably would have at least partially provoked it) but a neighbor?
comes between put a match to again and do laces again
re + bottom of shoe
I would call the police the firsttime... that is sooooo far over the line that there is absolutely no excuse. period. I would worry about his abuse more than getting him kicked out... it is easy enough to make him uncomfortable enough that he will choose to leave
ty babrab
there are two do laces again -- one is past tense
ty bab needed that one too
ha ha, not this guy
everyone has to deal with it in their own way, until you are in it it is difficult to know how you would manage
well, none of my business (but I agree with kje)
If anyone hit me in any form apart from a playful tap in jest I would seriously consider calling the authorities.
the very fact that kje and I agree should tell you something ata! ;-)
it tells me that you are american and think differently, perhaps ;)
I have a fair idea how I would stand up to this as I have been confront for my "aberrant" beliefs on a number of occasions including with a gun
probably true ata, but hiting is wrong no matter what the culture...
FM isn't an american
it would have been pretty pointless to call the police when he smacked Jenny. no-one saw it. it would have been his word against hers. never would have ended in prosecution
we admitted a patient and her husband hit her, and the intern said, but they are from Nigeria, so it may just be a cultural difference...
and she said consider :P
:-p
I said, yes, the cultural difference is that there the authorities would turn their back on her. here we do not... call the social worker.
this time we have people witnessing him being a shit, so we should get a proper hearing
Hi all-
Hi all-
clues for the cr 8 and 9?
hello jay
well go for it ata (and then Jenny can testify about his hitting her)
there was no point making him smug by calling the police and them ratifying his behaviour by not following up in a prosecution
Ata I agree with kje and jmc but with our under resourced police system it might have restulted in nothing the first time but all the other events would have added up to something surely?
hi jay
that's true Ata, he said she said very rarely results in prosecution
its less whether she thinks she has a case than it is establishing a precedence
now it's adding up to stuff, yes. The police now have him on file, and we can actually get him prosecuted, probably.
Ok,I have finally finished my movie that I started last night. Wow, the end was just fab.
*then* we can start legal proceedings to kick him out after getting that criminal prosecution
begin with person from Louisiana and end with a word to the w***
nm I monkied it!
in the US a prosecution rarely happens the first time either. But I assure you people remember even if all that happens is a talking to by the authorites
and plural
what movie red?
oh well lol
yes, a precedence for him thinking if we call the police, he gets away with it. it's about playing games with likelihood of screwing him!
whoo hoo ata!
ata is he a grumpy old man?
the kind that hates everyone?
li 4/14 clue please
wow, I totally cannot believe I got the 9 without peeking at anything. I should buy a lottery ticket today or something.
no! he's a magazine editor, 45, new father
si 6/24?
sorry I meant li 5/14
no ata... whether the police arrest him then or not, they do write a report. then the next time they are called, they know they have already been out there once... and so on, then they start to take it seriously
katie I bow to you my li***
wtg fnurt
oh thank you west
a child in the picture that's not good
li 5: lord you pledge allegiance to is your li 5 lord
here is another thought-- a person who will strike a neighbor is very likely to strike their spouse and child
yw katie lol
FIREWORKS
oh yes, I'm sure
Thanks all -
yay jay!!
have a great night!
congrats, jayde
kje is right about how the system works
thanks west!
and he hates animals?
whoo hoo Jayde
si 6/24, please?
*poof*
point for thought there jmc. Congrats jayde!
no, he likes all our dogs and cats
don't have that one yet nan
anger control issues rarely present in only one part of your life

Torchwood
every night for a week
my mistake ;-)
so glad husband is away this week so he won't bug me during it
more sweaty guys running around a tennis court?
sweaty guys, maybe. tennis court, nope!
I've never watched it before but the trailer is so good I'm going to give it a go
it's so fab
Ata, is it not on yet?
ahhh Dr Who in disguise!
is this the time to mention that I get it in HD?
Jack = head of Torchwood and a complete tart. Gwen = the morality of the team. Shes married to Rhys. Who isn't in Torchwood. Ianto = tea boy and Jack's latest love interest. There :) the whole scenario in a few lines!
Tosh and Owen were previous members of the team whoo died at the end of the last series.
Jack is a sweaty boy too?
thank you :-)
the whole point of Torchwood is to hunt down alien artefacts and keep them safe. Twood 3 is in Cardiff because there's a time/space rift there that keeps chucking random stuff through
HD katie!!!!
like your neighbor? ;-)
and they all have a pet pterodactyl in the Hub (Twood base)
no, Jack is a beautiful well groomed boy!
help with se7 pls
is jack a guy or a gal?
<- my pic is Jack
ahh I wondered who the buff guy was but forgot to ask
Katie's fav actor ;)
a well groomed boy who likes other boys though
other boys, girls, and random aliens
I prefer my heartthrobs to swing my way
comparative of the se 4 preceding
see the trailer is that good I am going to watch it even though Jack is JB
JB?
*grins* Jack is very JB, but it works much better than JB in real life. If that makes sense

hi lynxxx
how tough is the grid? (I asked earlier, but didn't see an answer then). I don't want to start if I don't have enough time to finish; I've had way too many unfinished grids lately

hi dorens sounds good
definitely jmc, I agree.
saw your grandbaby dorens... he's cute!!! and love the name levi
dorens, congratulations on the birth of your adorable grandson
ty kj. came home last night and miss him already.. not a big fan of newborns in general, much prefer the 6-7 month stage, but when it is my own, or my own kid's something does come over me. thanks annie
Dorens, congrats on your grandson!!
Peri - se5.10 Se*** the Day, usually spelled with a z
ty- will work on getting his pic (winston churchill, natch) for my icon later on
Very nice to have a new person to love Dorens!
ty lynxxx
thanks lyn
Very jealous Dorens, lucky you!
Levi \l(e)-vi\ is pronounced LEE-vye. It is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "joined". Biblical: Levi, third of Jacob's 12 sons, became father of the Levites tribe that was later assigned priestly duties. The name was revived by the Puritans.
yes red.. it does keep life interesting
thank you babrab. i was sure it was old testament -- Phineas, his middle name is Greek. so we have the ancients well covered here
ah don't be jealous lynxxxx. you have stuart!
(i am jealous of him)
lol, not 'quite' the same
Phinias T. Bluster of Howdy Doody fame
Phineas T. Fogg of around the World in 80 days
and of course right nowon Nickelodean, thereis the very popular cartoon Phineas and Ferb, which Ifind amusing.
oh i never even heard of that one.
its current, and Iimagine Dorens you dont wantch cartoons often.
Dorens, don't you mean Phileas Fogg?
I must say the only Levi I had heard of lately was the father of sarah palin's grandson, which gave me pause. But then realized it had been a name my son and dil were considering three years ago when their daughter was born, so I guess it had nothing to do with the alaskan
Hey kids, what time is it?
movie man, i stand corrected (and humbled) thanks before i made the same mistake again.
yw
and it is not howdy doody time, it is go to the lake time,. jmc. see you all later
Lvei Coffin was a big Quaker abolitionist
Him and John Woolman.
*Levi
I know a couple Levis... all very nice young men... one is an artist, one is an actor/dancer, and one is a lead singer in a band
intresting now that I think about it - they are all artsy
A pair of Levis?
no - three ; )
different centuries Woolman was 1700s Levi Coffin was 1800 -- and real different attitudes I might add
Ah i see ..
a trio oflevis.
such a nice set up for you torg
Well yes,but both Quakers and abolitionists.
I don't read so good ..

Is it on now? I have to wait for tonite

enjoy!
**Is 46th 9in line at the library to rent Torchwood season 1 because I need to see this show that you all love so much.
oh yes, you really do need to see it!
Season 1 is the best
nooo Season 2 ;)
I figure I ought to begin at the beginning
yes, start at the start!
in which case you should really start with dr who ;)
And the second season only has 22 holds, so I can't order it until I am higher in list for first season. They only have five copies, this could be a long wait! Might find it online..
Which Dr Who? The newer one?
depends how you define the beginning :D
aren't I mean LOL
You're truly awful! Get the Hobbit/kennel situation sorted? I made your sister mad, accidentally I think.
good! I'm cross with her!
You're cross with her? What for??
for trying to emotionally blackmail me into giving her Hobbit, when we all know she'd not look after her well
...but can you blame her!
Blackmail of all sorts is entirely forbidden.
she thinks she's trying to help, but she's not
jmc, not getting the re7 clue re stop war
Sorry Ata :(
re7 *2 what you did when the towels got wet again
it's so silly, it's just a perfect example of her selfishness. she'd hate having hobbit there in about 4 days, I know that. but she wants to be the Good Guy
re7 *2 what you did when you failed the first time
thanks, got a bunch of the re7's
yw Peri
Hobbit is an awful lot of work. And she'll miss you so much! I know Emma is being a little foul just because I have been away for four days and she is cat!
so don't worry about her being snotty. she's trying to prove she's First In My Life. she doesn't need to prove that *facepalm* but she hates other people showing they have a claim on my affection
Well, what matters is that it works out for you and Hobbit! And D, I guess. And Sily. I just didn't want to start an international incident with a joke!
lol just ignore her snottiness. she's a brat!
its' best for hobbit to be able to transport over to oregon with me! but as we can't do that ....
hi all
hi there nrkii
Why can't she go on the plane anyway? I know they can go in luggage or whatever now. Or would that require some crazy papers?
hi nrk!
she can ... it's just very expensive and I wouldn't want to stress her for any less than a few months in Oregon
could someone help me with the O words... all I have is bullfight cheers and mine products
Hi Nrkii!
Ahh..obviously, I have not had to experience that. You'll both have a whale of a time no matter what anyway.
she loves her kennels - it's a specialist kennels for spaniels and labradors, and then run round madly all day
or4/5 almost a whale
That sounds fantastic!
ooh, found the other Os!

I have the god of love and the sad poems
3 of the words start with the first 4 letters of a word for graceful

hi again - sorry about your finger, Trif - but take it easy - great reason to do nothing about cleaning with a clear conscience
thanks. anything that interferes with babbling is just too much to deal with
I just spent the most infuriating hour on the phone with the EZPASS dispute people - glad to be back
Hi JBV
hi jbv
I had sent in 2 dispute forms which they claim they never received so today I received a 3rd violation notice - in a big ORANGE ENVELOPE! so unfair that I had to spend my time to resolve a stupid error - it's ok now
oh JBV, so sorry
the lady was very nice when I finally got through but I had to wait through a repeated "your call is very important to us" messages - ugh!
sorry, I vented, back to babble, and thanks for listening

I did notreadit, I just surely wish we could now ignore the poor lady and let her fade into Wasilla.
you are so welcome. :)
oh it was worth it une
i think that's the last thing in the world she wants to do, red!
ok, dorens, I'll give it a shot :-)
i heard much of it but dor, you have inspired me to look for it...
i'm not ready to ignore her red, and it scares me mightily that there are people who take her seriously
do you have the link, dor or une?
i got it on the nytimes website, pam.
and, i agree--her "fans" are really scary
true , but I hope she leaves the public scene.
her fans are scarier than her, I mean my gosh.
here it is on youtube, pam: http://tinyurl.com/ml8mky
with 48 left, I went to list, Dorens you werent kidding....
oh, duh. Thanks, dor!

thanks, jilli
peach
thx, jilli
oh good! Coulodn't think of a clearer clue!
Can't type, either :/
couldn't figure out the star part :P brain's in a tizzy - not fried for a change
need to go back to the grid. I have hopes of finishing
not star -- sun -- which is a star, of course. Should have said Latin sun, I guess
got *all* the DEs to get, now. it's the only section of Lickety that I have no words in
's'arright, jilli. I did finally get it ;)
didn't quite understand that, tyger!
which, jilli?
did you mean you got all the DEs or those are what you have none of?
the latter
but they're all short
shouldn't be that bad
want help?
not yet, thx :)
I got 200 without recourse to word lists, and very little to Lickety list. quite proud of myself :P
well, gotta go get supper on and do new icon -- next theme is Favourite Movie Posters
wow, tyger -- that's fantastic!
may be back later. gotta work on the grid more while I can, and hope to finish
just luck, jilli. :D :poof:
Darn, I missed Tyger.....
Hey Jilli !

Hello! Can anyone help me with the or-4, 5, and 6? I have the last or-4.
hello all hi paper or4/5 killer whales; or6/21 sounds like potato company change the last vowel; or7/32 plural
Hey West :)

hello trif feeling a little better?
Thanks westand ru!
hi west. no.
I wonder if mine will be the same jilli
*thats west AND ru...
sorry to hear that trif are you taking anything for the pain?
I doubt it, west
oxycontin, which has done nothing
Can't get the potato chip company for the or6-21...help please. Thanks
not chips peach frozen french fries and potato puffs
Hey Peach !
trif, you should also start taking motrin, 600 mg every six hours or so, oxycontin will not reduce the swelling which is probably whats causing the most pain...
i cant believe how much it hurts, and it is all blown up again. i think the drainage hole is blocked or somthing
Hey there, Aussieme. How are you this evening?
you really did a number on it can you sue the owner?
o geez :( can you clear it?

I just got home from work - a freakin' 14 hour day (though did babble at lunch ; )
yech. that's a long day.
Trifs I lost a nail to an infection and my finger nail grew back flat. I think you need Primo to help you next time
Too late Feather **gets feather in a hug**
trif, what are you doing?
Can't find the darned or6-21...thought I had it, westford, but I didn't.
My friend is talking to me on the pphone and that should be being talked at
i decided there was no way i am cooking, so stopped by kfc for the grilled chicken... have you tried this? it is actually quite good... may actually draw me back to fast food a bit
or 6 - like the potato people
peach..... or** cookie + h*** and seek is a game played by children
I'm new here. I'm perplexed about what things like or6-21 mean ...
i'd be careful about hugging feather, aussie - she has had a lot of chemical exposure lately
waaaa i hate being talked at
kje want to try it don't care for the original husband loves it unfortunately
**wearing hazmat suit**
welcome origami!
or 6-21 mean the word starts with or, has 6 letters, and is worth 21 points

Hi ORigami

or6/21 means the word begins with the letters or, and 6 letters, worth 21 points :)
honestly, this is pretty decent west
Thanks!
Trifs why didn't you wait till boy was home?
I try to steer him away from it
yeah, everytime i turn around, SOMEONE squirts me with roundup.
boy is at boy scout camp for a week
i was going to pop into eatzi's. but passed kfc on the way and saw the grilled chicken sign, and thought, what the heck
is it like Boston Market? I like their roast chicken but can't get it around here
origami, click on my green B. beginner's guide in there.
OMG Feather !! ROFLMAO !
Could you not have waited till he was home you goof

origami - have you read the help section above the chat log?
bugger

Ah, I see Feather..... Roundup, kills the weed, at the root !! (not very nice friends you have if 'n they are trying to bump you off)
hey!
I have discovered Hulu, tons of good films on there, colbert, and several tv programs for free on computer.

diet coke, i mean
"snorting coke" not good! lol, vivid image though.

I have trouble when thr other babbler red shoes plays when I play, though i like shoes.

Oh Minver, you know, I had dean up for famous peoplefrom hometown, then got rid of him quickly as I am not a fan...but never rewrote my thing.
Just so you know, I have not become Paul Giamatti.
Thanks, lbdawger, found it..

oh.. I remember where it was
ok, how are there 25 G words from that top G? not seeing them yet! don't need clues, just kvetching.
dawger, my sister's bunny died at 5:30 AM, shortly after arrival to the emergency vet ctr and prior to euthanasia. I am glad he did it that way--easier for my sister and her husband. Snowy was 10 yrs old which is uber-geriatric for a bunny and he was happy and runny the day before starting with seizures.
scrab - get this... he has been coming to the ED several times/day for months now, so they got the hospital lawyers on the case and got a temp order to hold him against his will, then wednesday, he has to see a judge
May I please have a clue for re7-36? Thanks
there is a little crepe place near the MSF offices kje, called Crepe Show, willnever be written up in the times, but reallymadesomelovely crepes.
this is their argument - he is an infection risk to others... that is NOT going to fly...
i'm so sorry, scrabs. Hope your sister and her hubby are okay.
hard to argue he is going to kill someone by flinging poo
OK red
UGH, kje, so sorry that this is so prolonged!
That's some hard core poo ..
Dawger, they are very sad but know that Snowy had a wonderful life. They have 3 other rabbits, including twin boys that they fostered last summer and adopted soon after.
Peach, pt of not wet again
sounds as if he needs social work, to arrange for to keep him out of the ER.
kje, someone will kill HIM because he is throwing poop around.
he has a PD - not much you can do except stay out of his way

oh darn, i want second dinner.
Oh, well, I wish, too!
Oh, check chog archives, if he mentioned it last year when you went...?
clue for the sc word?
wow, babbling takes forever sometimes, doesn't it? feel like i have been at thuis for hours
How's the hand, tri? Did the meds kick in?
I hope he has not children. I see so many kids with parents that have anywhere from mild to severe psych issues that then have a profound effect on the kids. And then how many alcoholic parents are out there that I am unaware of? In the family history parents don't admit "Yeah, I am an alcoholic, I smoke weed daily, I abuse my kids...."
how many left do you have?
sc***ch... crash
Trif, how is your finger? I have had close calls with stones and rocks in my gardens.
oh! ty!
nah - he is a lonely single homeless guy with a PD
no pam. primos girl came over and got it open and drained it again, which helped25 scoop, how bout you?
Oh, glad something worked....
what is a PD
thats good and haha 95
heat up a needle and push it into the nail for a bloody volcano effect
personality disorder, ruru
oh oh i know that one! personality disorder, rigjht?
nice image, scrabs!
oh.. I wouldn't know anything about that
that;s how they did it the first time scrab...
I stand back when I do that procedure, Pam.
i know, ruru
why does heating the needle work so well? do nails melt?
no comment
i can not assist with it, fingernails make me nauseous...
..............
ROFLMAO, kje
There are personality disorders and then there are personality types. The former is impairing.
To the person and to their progeny.
Uh, oh, Ruru is flatlining. Red, kje, me, let's start the code
i worked for many years in mental health. people with personality disorders are very creepy. not like the mentally ill.
Yes, Pam, as we know too well
My mother in law has a personality disorder..
sedire
scrabs, why does heating up needle work like that? do nails melt or something like that?
but they are mentally ill.
nice try ori
Yep, origami, some very spooky people
I meant organically mentally ill -- schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
but still mentally ill
That is a bit different than the cheese not being on the cracker ...? correct?
hi all. I see there are a bunchof medical conversations going on. My DIL has Depersonalization disorder; and I don't care for mental health.
trif, heating the needle sterilizes it and helps burn through the nail
hi Neffie
Poor girl, Nef.
THe bi-polar people are really interesting.. up and down.. up and energized and then depressed
8 left....really sleepy.
Re: the finger, I've always found that heating up a tip of a paper clip works better
hmm. might try it tomorrow if the "milking" technique proves ineffective again
ouch
go red! you can do it!
I have to say in my line of work, I find non eof those people interesting. Drive me up a wall.
(must stop looking at chat. ick.)
is this a chat room or torture room
ruru, you can have ALLof them then!
Trif, the hole will clot off and seal within a few hrs, so you may need to poke it again
.. we can talk about weed now...
did you know she has tattoos?
no you can't. it's like a car crash. i want to stop reading, yet can't.
LOL
I think ruru must have tats! ;-)
just one.
no piercings though..
gee, where else can you read about milking festering sores?
eeek
this is one of the milder conversations, Ori.
i am sorry friends -- trust me, i REALLY am! One foolish second of non-awareness and a day of agony.
wait till kje really gets going
But it's all in a NICE chat, origi!
actually, sounds a lot like home. i come from a long line of freaky people.
just read back... cracking up at the "I don't care for mebtal health" comment - LOLOL
freaky like freddy or freaky like quirky?
I just come for the recipes..
Well, kids, I must be off to read in bed and snuggle with itty-bitty Bunny Sebastian. Tomorrow after work I am going to Canada to spend the afternoon and evening with my friend's family.
quirky to be sure.
night scrabs. enjoy.
nah - you come for the jacuzzi ru - can't fool us
sweet dreams, scrabs. enjoy your vacation to Canada.
gn scrab
scrabs.. ?
My family is the poster family for mental illness. How I turned out semi-normal is beyond me.
Have fun, Scrabbler
kje, I said "mental health" not "mebtal health"
do you ever find half eaten carrots in bed?
ciao, scrabs. And, sorry about your sister's bunny
wait... aren't you related to stid??? LOLOLOL
Gotta go ... Jeopardy is calling me. Nice to "meet" ya'll
well... ok then nef... but funnier my way ; )
someone else typed "mebtal," nef...

It is Mary's kids that I will visit. Her husband rented a home on the Lake Erie shore for 18 days.

ciao, ori
Bye origami

DR!!!!!!!!
hi, de
*dr
Hi Trif!!!
dougie is my middle name..
hi DR!
Hi Pam
hi DR
no, ru, it's not.
I am not " allowed" to get a tattoo
he's actually already got two, one on each arm. so i guess another on the butt wouldn't faze him.
no, pam of course not! babble women would have "pr8" on them
it is..
really??? ru doug rock?
ru dougie rock
Hi Dawger and Kje and ruru and Feather
or rosie the riveter, tri
i will now call you dougie
rudoro
ok, ruru, if you say so. I rather thought snark was.
:) you make m,e so happy, DR!
i have nothing against those with tattoos, i just don't see why you'd do that to your body! OWIE!!!
he'll keep dropping stuff just to see you bend over weed
ru-doug-o
RURU!!!!
he likely already does that...
rofl
allowed, dr?
I am glad Trif!
yeah, he would actually. and he says re: pain, it was a good pain. whatever.
oooo a masochist?
slap and tickle, feather, slap and tickle...
something about a divorce and parents disowning and it is not even a big one that I want
Good evening. Could I get a clue for cr8 please?

hi, marc
Hi Pam
hi marc
cr6.21 drop the last vowel and add r*** and fall
a cajun who came to know something marc
my mom was laughing one day after a hospital meeting - they made a policy to never, ever put a needle through a tattoo, as the infection risk is too great. so all those college girls who got tramp stamps during spring break? no epidurals in THEIR futures!
and hi Marc
ok, must go to bed.... gn all... gn doug... and gn dougieru
tramp stamps?
ciao, kje!
sleep well, kje.
night night, KJE
nite.. kje...
Hi ib

it's a tattoo over the back just over the rump

* ro4-
Marc, cr6.21 drop the last vowel and add r*** and shine
Hi Coop!
