12:49 am

right seain and hi

12:49 am

Westford, thank you for the y6 -- couldn't get the correct spelling without your help.

12:49 am

indeed. I went gaming and had an RC, that's my excuse

12:50 am

hi, west and judy and jill and christine an jaian

12:50 am

just got back from my a wedding in Philly; that's my excuse

12:50 am

RC = Roman Catholic -- dc, you shock me!

12:50 am

OMG not MY wedding; a friend's daughter's wedding

12:50 am

lol jilli

12:51 am

RC - Royal Crown cola

12:51 am

LOL Jill

12:51 am

my Tom is a Roman Catholic

12:51 am

oh, how boring!

12:51 am

I used to love RC haven't seen it in years

12:52 am

bless Tom, dc ;)

12:52 am

RC is very available around here

12:52 am

he converted about 5 years ago, jill

12:52 am

converted from what, dc?

12:53 am

Roman Catholocism

12:53 am

from what did he convert?

12:53 am

agnosticism

12:53 am

I thought he had converted TO Roman Catholicism

12:54 am

indeed he did, jill

12:54 am

oh..that is a big step there

12:54 am

oh! that's interesting!

12:54 am

not such a welcoming religion for your relationship though.

12:55 am

indeed not, ruru. he actually boycots attending mass due to the current Pope. He does hit confession now and again though

12:55 am

hi, handsome ruru

12:56 am

The new pope is a little tooo conservative ..no?

12:56 am

Hello jilli

12:56 am

-t makes the past tense of the yiddish sh5

12:56 am

not just conservative, but backward-leaning in some ways, from my understanding, ruru

12:57 am

The Roman Catholic church is so far out of reality in my opinion..

12:58 am

as I've said before, I'm on a sabbatical from organised religion

12:58 am

the RC Church of America is among the most progressive, though they have their problems, as does any large organization

12:58 am

well said jilli

12:58 am

i find that reasonable an rational, jilli

12:58 am

Oh. I did not know religion was organized.....(LOL!)

12:59 am

Is that the soda church DC?

12:59 am

well, the Church of Rome does have a history of supporting royals

12:59 am

I believe in faith, not church

1:00 am

hear, hear, bugsaw!

1:00 am

very witty DC..

1:00 am

faith in what? church of soda? royals? what the...?

1:00 am

:)

1:01 am

Royal Crown (RC) cola vs the Roman Catholic (RC) church, with an odd monarch tossed in for good measure, gortmold :)

1:01 am

whatever suits gortmold. Just believe in something greater than yourself

1:01 am

pa x 14, pe x9, what am I missing?

I think the coolest part is we are still free to believe whatever we choose... whether it is organized, a denomination, or whatever... hopefully America will remain free enough that we have such liberties

1:02 am

the Flying Spaghetti Monster Incarnate

1:02 am

oh, very well said, Dee!

1:02 am

amen

1:02 am

in communion do they give pasta jilli?

1:02 am

I am of the spiritual sort that likes spirituality but is leery of organizing God

1:02 am

i have a friend who believes in the Invisible Pink Unicorn, for her holiness predates the FSM

1:02 am

probably, ruru

1:03 am

lol dc!

mix you are further with the p's than I am

1:03 am

Unicorns don't exist?

1:03 am

1:03 am

Funny, I told the doctors from the outset that I don't believe in illness. I'm thrilled tho' and the family is too.

1:09 am

sweet dreams, judy

1:09 am

night judy!

Stupidity probably, Gortmold, because I never accepted the diagnosis.

1:10 am

good night ciocia sleep well

1:10 am

I believe we know more than we think we do if we listen to our hearts. How good that you listened to your heart more than the doctors

1:10 am

positive attitude and stubborness go a lonnng way susan.. good for you

1:10 am

5:43 am

en6

thanks. Having a blind as a bat moment

5:43 am

You're welcome.

well my senility set in today. How is SPangle?

5:44 am

Morning all. Haz, did you get to see the tall ships? We, stupidly, took notice of the weather forecast and didn't go. By the time we WOULD have been on the ferry the sun was beaming down...RATS !!

5:45 am

She's fine, arranging the paws as usual.

Hi Liz

5:45 am

Hi Liz

5:45 am

Hi Herin.

5:46 am

Hello liz - I'd really wanted to go but between work and other commitments didn't manage. My daughter and her boyfriend went yesterday and really enjoyed it (as you said the weather cleared up really well). It was very crowded!

5:46 am

Hi Katie.

O liz what a shame. My idot weather forecaster did the same thing today. 20 and fine with scattered showers not cold and raining all day. Not that I am complaining about the rain.

5:46 am

The whole country seemed to have decided to go to see them - they're so spectacular.

5:47 am

Pity I missed it, have been the last two years, a good day out. Ah well, next year!

oh my I just nearly fainted at 57 C words

5:47 am

Liz, is there any chance you could see them as they head away from here? It's reasonably bright here today.

5:48 am

Now THERE's an idea, might head out to Portpatrick to have a look.

5:49 am

It would be worth the trip. Seeing them in full sail would be something!

5:49 am

great idea haz

5:49 am

Bring your binoculars!

5:50 am

If we didn't have the phone (drat!) we'd be heading towards Whitehead or Islandmagee to see them from a height.

5:50 am

Any idea what time they leave?

5:50 am

Let me check for you.

5:51 am

Parade of sail starting from approx 2pm leaving Belfast.

5:52 am

Great, thanks. I'll report back if we spy them. Thanks Haz.

5:52 am

http://www.belfastcity.gov.uk/tallship s/ is the council website. It's been the talk of the place here for days.

5:53 am

Hope you see them, liz!

O wow. that is amazing

5:54 am

fees

5:55 am

Ouch, sorreee. Please, no penalty box, I've got ships to see!

5:56 am

I think we should let you off just this once

I think Liz was a tad excited about the ships

5:57 am

We are a forgiving people.

5:58 am

right I'm off for some drugs and soft food, bbs

5:58 am

Thank you for your understanding. I'll go and wash my face in preparation for outing. Byeee.

5:58 am

I hope the drugs are soft as well.

5:58 am

Bye liz.

5:59 am

lol haz, ibuprofen is not illegal yet thank goodness

Oh Katie :( Clove oil on that tooth hun

6:01 am

Are you needing a visit to the dentist?

6:02 am

She's obviously scuttled off to get those drugs into her.

poor love

6:04 am

sc 7,32?

6:05 am

sc7 - you'll turn red when you find it.

6:05 am

Phone...

6:05 am

back from the drugs. Absess started yesterday, dentist all shut unti Monday! At 2.30 am I was in such paid I seriously considered paying hundreds of pounds to get seen today but in the daylight I am being a little braver lol

6:06 am

You're right, Haz- I did!

6:06 am

me too jaian

6:07 am

Glad you got it, jaianniah.

6:08 am

Is there no emergency dentist (called the pain clinic here for good reason!)?

6:08 am

Or under-the-counter antibiotics?

6:09 am

couldn't find anything without going to A&E and that seemed a little over the top. The only problem is that I can't shut my teeth so eating seems out of the question, may suck on some bread later

6:09 am

Smoothies or soup sounds like the thing.

6:10 am

Last two sc's?

6:10 am

sc5 -a little piece of material, sc6 -an unfortunate graze, especially if it's on metal.

6:10 am

typical that it happens at a weekend. I'm really busy at work at the moment but will need to take tomorrow off to get it sorted. Luckily I brought loads of work home to do over the weekend

6:11 am

nm- got 'em!

6:11 am

must be affecting my brain I had both of those without the s on the front!

6:11 am

At least if you can get the pain to be bearable, it's a start.

6:14 am

good morning again babbler's!

6:16 am

Good morning Wolvie.

6:16 am

6:21 am

My sister and I had our last paddle on the lake earlier and we will leave after breakfast.

8:12 am

It is stunningly beautiful up here! Mountains everywhere, trees....heaven!

sounds like fun Scrabbler. Nice weather?

hope you have had mostly good weather

8:12 am

hepa

8:13 am

oops

8:13 am

sorry

8:13 am

The Adirondacks are magnificent

its ok joanne i tried it too

8:14 am

Great weather except for a brief storm on Thursday. It came in rapidly over the mountain while we were kayaking. We retreated into the woods and hid under trees, under a tarp, and got pelted with hail!

ouchie !

8:14 am

That lasted 30 min then it rained another hour. The dark clouds passed, out came the sun and we went back to kayak.

8:14 am

Nice start

8:15 am

i love kayaks

8:15 am

As we huddled under the tarp, listening to and seeing the hail, we just laughed.

8:15 am

They are so much fun, aren't they, Hurshy?

8:15 am

paddlepaddlepaddle

sounds wonderful Scrabbler. Hi Hursy

8:16 am

hi, hi all

8:16 am

hello hurshy

hi Hurshy

8:17 am

Paddle, relax, repeat-----I have a shirt that says that.

8:17 am

hehe

8:19 am

i had a weird dream last night

8:19 am

what?

8:19 am

i won a lot of money. but it was a bad dream.

8:19 am

There is a group of mentally retarded men here, on a People & Places trip, and they are so sweet. I have been talking with them for the last few days. Annie, I am now talking with Joey, who has Down Syndrome. He is so adorable--telling me about his girlfriend.

8:19 am

good Sunday all

8:20 am

Hi Boobear

8:20 am

Scrabbs, How old is Joey? Does he live at home?

good morning Boo

8:21 am

hi boo

8:21 am

Hi Annie and Nono

8:21 am

Joe just told me that he will be 35 on Aug 29th.

8:22 am

He has a birthday coming up.

8:23 am

One of the gentleman in the group, in his 60's I would guess, is now playing the piano--he plays by ear---amazing savant gift!

8:24 am

Scrabbs, Can you ask Joe where he lives or is that too personal a question?

8:24 am

I also wonder who is sponsoring the trip/

8:26 am

Joe lives in Rochester. Not all of these guys live together. They are on this trip through People & Places. Volunteers take people on trips everywhere.

8:26 am

I am thinking of becoming a volunteer.

8:26 am

Thanks Scrabbler.

8:27 am

my childhood is se4ing back into my mind and making me imagine that i smell pancakes that my dad is cooking downstairs

8:28 am

Joey is TOO sweet! Talking about working at the workshop, about going home tomorrow and calling his friends, about his girlfriends of the past--he broke up with Lisa because she was nasty.

8:28 am

I might have pancakes for breakfast.

8:28 am

Sounds like Bobby.

8:29 am

He has folded papers in his pocket with names + phone numbers.

8:29 am

Scrabbler, Workshops are a godsend. When Bobby comes home with his paycheck he is so proud. He cashes the check at the bank by himself.

8:30 am

Joey sounds like a sweetheart.

8:30 am

Yes, these men have discussed what they do with their money. They went to the Adirondack Museum yesterday and bought things in the gift shop with their money.

8:31 am

Wonderful. Bobby spends his money on copies of Egyptian artifacts and baseball books.

8:31 am

OK, my sister has come downstairs so we are going to have breakfast. Bye all!

8:31 am

Bye. Enjoy the pancakes

Bye Scrabbler.

Annie hearing about Bobby makes me smile

bye bye Scrabs have a save trip home

8:32 am

herin, I am happy that you feel that way.

My friend in high schools brother was high end autistic. He had a great deal of respect for me as I treated him like anyone else

such diversified interests he has Annie, Egyptian artifacts and baseball. I bet he likes to talk about them too

8:34 am

Nono, Yes he does. He is a fan of The History Channel and a big fan of the Mets.

good boy! The history channel has some awesome programming.

The Mets are my favorite team as well

8:37 am

There is a division in this house as I am a Yankee fan but it makes for lively game watching.

10:19 am

was a horrid year here for gardens.... too much rain and too many cool nights

10:19 am

had not one single tomato and the plants are dead already

10:20 am

don't think it will be much better here, Nanette. My tomato plants are still tiny and so are my courgettes.

there is a big issue with blight spread throuhg con taminated pllants sld at big box home improvement sotres

tomatoes are affected. cna't remembr the name of the disease.

10:21 am

got my plants from a nursery TO so did not have that problem but might just as well have

10:21 am

I think I will try and get some biodynamic saplings (?) next year to get my garden started, or real good seeds maybe.

10:21 am

what is a courgette?

10:22 am

sprite what are courgettes?

10:22 am

let me check the dictionary

10:22 am

snap, NoNo

10:22 am

great minds and all that peri

10:22 am

zucchinis

10:23 am

aha, thanks sprite, I like zucchini

10:23 am

ok thanks

10:23 am

funny how some words can be so totally different

wow it's pretty bad when they won't grow

10:23 am

neighbor had good luck with zucchini and yellow summer squash this year

10:24 am

my plants are blooming like mad, but don't make zucchinis at all.

hm i he5 that complaint last week on garden show not sure what it was. can you stuff the blossoms?

10:25 am

I don't know 'stuff' in this meaning... what should I do?

they are a delicay can be filled with bread crumb mixture and fried

10:26 am

hello

10:26 am

hi phaeton

10:26 am

pick the blossoms and fill them savory things an cook them, sprite

or sauteed - check for recipes

10:26 am

hi phaeton

10:26 am

ah ok, that's an idea!

hi pahe

10:26 am

squash blossoms are tasty, many recipes available

10:26 am

sounds like they are not getting pollenated sprite

10:26 am

hi paeton

10:27 am

never ate squash blossoms, hmm

10:27 am

Owl, are you talking about the blossoms or the zucchini?

10:27 am

that is another option, indeed. I could try and brush the flowers. Lots of bees and ... (huge bees?) though.

the blossoms. sprite, what happens when the blossoms fall off? what do you have?

10:28 am

sprite, I found this on the net: Zucchini plants have both female and male flowers, and bees usually do the pollination. However, some years, I remove a male flower that has opened and rub the pollen on the female flower just after it also has opened. This will give me fruit. To understand the difference between a male and a female flower, look it up on the internet. A female flower has a swollen small zucchini behind it.

10:29 am

Nanette, thanks! That is very helpful, I will try.

yes but i think t hey are self pollinating. it's coming back to me now. I will awat to check the website for you sprite

10:29 am

(bumble bees, perhaps? Those huge beelike creatures who can take up so much pollen that they cannot fly anymore?)

10:30 am

Firewords....a fun puzzle!

10:30 am

zucchini porn.. wowee

10:30 am

woot jaianniah! Gratz.

10:30 am

10:34 am

you look so intense seain

10:35 am

oh... no you don't, I am crosseyed, never mind

10:35 am

hi there stid

10:35 am

LOL good, sprite -- I was worried!

10:35 am

down to 214 words now.

10:35 am

hey peri

10:35 am

hi peri and temple and sprite

10:35 am

and stid

peri i was thinking of gong to see the rock tenor matinee today

10:36 am

hi Boobear

10:36 am

well, sometimes one need pay attention, TO :) I think that is when we were getting directions from the conductor on Hoedown

10:36 am

gee seain, you clean up pretty good! *admiring look*

10:36 am

hey boo~

10:36 am

howdy, boo

10:36 am

thank you, stid

10:36 am

intense and sophisticated, seain! Who knew ;)

10:36 am

Hi boo

10:36 am

hey dc

10:36 am

hi phaeton

hi boo

10:37 am

thank you Sprite. years ago i came quite close to doing the music thing professionally. Been debating following that path again. Much decision making about such right now.

10:38 am

follow your bliss, seain. Your heart will tell you. But I know it isn't easy. *hugs*

10:38 am

seain - be professional if you like, and if your finances allow it. Is alabaster working yet? *wicked mama grin*

10:39 am

alabaster needs snipped, poor neutered Feldspar is tired of him trying to mount her. Hell be 1 on the 24th

10:39 am

and Sprite, that is the goal. :)

10:39 am

poor alabaster!

10:40 am

and poor feldspar...

10:40 am

I know! And you will.

10:40 am

Hell is an interesting word in that respect, hehehe

10:40 am

yes, but feldsy deserves peace, and i don't want him to start spraying, which praise Elvise, he's not yet.

10:40 am

must drill into the ground and insert liquid to kill this nest

How is Terra doing?

1:24 pm

Terra has been ill, from a virus. Virus is over, but I am still not too happy with how he is. He eats irregularly and isn't yet his happy, jumpy self. Went back to the vet. He did not worry about eating etc, but he checked the hips and said there is too much room and they are very painful. Must come back in 1,5 months and if there is no improvement, he will make X-rays.

6:30 pm

Crossy- I was telling megadude of your love of bacon at the breakfast table ...

6:31 pm

He is a member of your church :)

I Love Bacon! I want a bacon weave in a few months.

6:31 pm

we had maple bacon for breakfast with our waffles

I had peanut butter and english muffin, delish.

6:33 pm

i love english muffins!

6:33 pm

i could make you a bacon weave blt red,would bring a tear to yer eye;)

6:33 pm

That is what I was telling MegaDude!

and my arteries I am sure.

6:34 pm

indeed dr? all are wecome at bacon lovers;)

6:34 pm

funny thing,i convert more americans..must be our bacon;)))

6:36 pm

interesting..we just bought a tub of bryers tripple chocolate iced cream and its set up like neopolatin except it has mild choc,dark choc and fudge!

I want the strip of mild. may have to have a no sugar added fudge bar. those things are sooo good and 40 cals only, amazing.

6:37 pm

That would be heaven to me Crossy- I am an ice cream girl

6:38 pm

bryers trople chocolate double churned it says

My favorite is peppermint ice cream, or peanut butter...

6:38 pm

ok- wrote it down

Oooh I am sort of in the grid today....

6:38 pm

I tried black cherry chocolate chip frozen yogurt last night.. was good but was not ice cream

my first part of my name is the sc7.

6:39 pm

my favorite is MooseTrack Icecream

6:39 pm

wife wont even speak to me while she is eating it,justs glares at me and hold the bowl closer lol'

6:39 pm

hi folks (mine is old fashioned pistachio, followed by maple walnut, mint chocolate chip and a tie between butter pecan and coffee ... love the stuff!)

6:39 pm

LOL_ Megadud ate the last of the moosetracks which is why I had frozen yogurt

6:39 pm

oohh, black cherry vanilla is in there too somewhere :)

6:40 pm

ohhhh..crossy remembers pistachio iced cream:))

6:40 pm

(and we could probably have a "Bacon Off" between our homes, crossy .. maple bacon, yum!)

6:40 pm

i worked at a dairy from 1980-84 and made tons of the stuff;)

6:41 pm

considering the ice cream and bacon, it' s little wonder why i'm not svelte ;)

6:41 pm

mm crossy ponders if bacon iced cream can work....

We used to go to this Amish store as a kid, called Gettle's. they would dole out the ice cream in huge amounts hard to keep it on a cone.

6:41 pm

lol welki,you probably get the same stuff i do maple and hickory smoked:))

Welki, you just need to take up a little running, then you will find yourself eating like, all the time.

6:41 pm

I used to like Ben & Jerry's white russian. Then they stopped making it.Then next I liked B & J's chocolate fudge sundae and now I like Ben & Jerry's half baked.

6:42 pm

there's a babbler who lives near binghamton, ny, near a town called endicott .. pat mitchell's ice cream parlor was a lot like that in the 70s, red

My mom grew up near Binghamton, in Unadilla, near Sydney.

6:42 pm

our iced cream used to be the real deal,not all whipped foam and air;)

6:43 pm

6:43 pm

I have been struggling with Planter fac... since May

6:43 pm

I feel your pain

6:44 pm

i wouldn't wish this pain on anyone, dr. i can barely walk, it brings tears to my eyes

6:44 pm

speaking to those who have had carpal tunnel syndrome..did you start with problems opening up your hand to pick up wide stuff like jar of peanut butter bottle of pop etc?

6:44 pm

and it interferes with my fishing, so i'm ticked off about it, too

oooh, Welki, I just got over some PF and my achilles is a bit whack but not as bad as you describe, I am so sorry.

6:45 pm

Mine is when I walk in the morning .. I stretch my foot before i get out of bed

planter fac??

DR, they have these socks you can buy that hold your feet in the right position overnight, not etremely sexy, btu apparently they work.

6:46 pm

my own little abbreviation

6:46 pm

i've done those stretching things, even with a little rolly-type seesaw for my feet ... it lasts all day, 24/7. 'rest, welki,' they say .. uh, but how?

6:46 pm

really! ... going to check that out!

6:46 pm

socks? what are they called? i'm in!

Also, get you 2 20 ounce soda bottles, empty them fill with water, freeze, and use those to roll along your feet.

I'll go look up the socks...

6:48 pm

when i walk down the stairs in the morning (one by one), i look like i must be methuselah's sister .. and i am not an old lady. (well, relatively speaking, anyway)

here is a web site...

6:49 pm

wow .. this pain talk is doing wonders for my game, only 5 left!

http://www.thesock.com/

6:49 pm

brilliant url *lol*

darn, I have 14 left. Apparently the sock does work. and I look like you too on steps welki, it hurts.

6:50 pm

oh shhhhhhhht, that would hurt the achilles tendon! had one podiatrist tell me to start wearing heels to STOP stretching them! oy!

6:50 pm

thanks Red...

No, the heels, welki, shorten the tendon, and then you have to stretch it to walk normally....

6:50 pm

will read about it, thanks for the link!

6:51 pm

yes, that's why i don't go to that podiatrist anymore

sorry, I've had a lot of injries in the nether regions....

it might hurt your tendon too much to use it until that heals up.

6:52 pm

hello everybody. tell me about foot pain! It's a 24/7 thing for me for the past 3 years. After a while it gets tiring

6:52 pm

Hello Nef! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle!

6:52 pm

you're right, nef. it is tiring. it is exhausting to have chronic pain. on the other hand, it's a symptom of being alive, so that's a good thing :)

I just cut the heel out of one of my shoes, and it does seem to be improving my wierd tendon issue... but I dont recommend it.

and it is exhausting.

Hi nef.

6:53 pm

*I* am okay; we are dealing with mentally ill Dtr in law again.

6:53 pm

thats my feeling welki,as lonjg as i can feel it then im still kicking!

6:53 pm

HI Nef

Ugh Nef. Not fun at all.

6:54 pm

I am sorry to he4 that!

6:54 pm

I agree welki. I had a foot/ankle injury 3 years ago, 3 surgeries later I can't be on my feet more than 2 hours at a stretch (but the ortho doc says 2 hours per day)

6:55 pm

does anyone have the es6/ 24?

I'm trying to avoid a surgery right now, Nef, that is not encouraging!

6:56 pm

foot problems seem to run in my family. we must collectively spend more on shoes, orthotics, podiatrists, anti-inflammatories, etc. than we do on ... ice cream!

6:56 pm

I have found my son is making me proud to be his mother. I don't know how he does it; but he is so patient and caring that it amazes me

6:56 pm

but ice cream is SO MUCH more fun welki... : )

6:56 pm

what did you do to your foot, red?

DR it is the very bad burned skin on a person....think about Es plus **ar broiled burgers.

6:57 pm

That es 6/24 word is es plus the ch 4/6 word DR1965

6:57 pm

You did something right then Nef!!

6:57 pm

es + the ****ge of the light brigade

We think I partially tore my tendon and to repair it my amazing body grew up some bone around it....

6:57 pm

AH - got it - thanks

entrapping it....

6:57 pm

which tendon, red?

its getting a lot better now.

6:58 pm

ooh, red. why won't you have the surgery? my tendons are so damaged, that surgery is only an option if one ruptures

they detach the tendon and clean it up and then reattach the tendon. I dont know if my tendon will function correctly after all that.

Plus, its a six week recovery.

my left achilles.

6:59 pm

better now than when you're older, red. and it's not functioning "right" now, is it? (i was told 6 - 8 weeks recovery, but i'm a bit older than you are)

well, I am still running on it, so I think its functioning enough.

7:00 pm

and nef .. you just hug that son of yours. he must have a full plate right now .. and probably needs his mom to tell you what you just told us

7:00 pm

mine was my post-tib tendon. They repaired it, then it tore lose and was torn lengthwise; the next surgery was a removal of that tendon, cutting out part of the heel bone, lengthening of the achilles tendon and a (fdl?) tendon transfer

7:01 pm

HE must be one strong young man Nef!

7:01 pm

third surgery was cutting out a decubiti on the heel that wouldn't heal

7:02 pm

Oh NEF !!! Sounds so painful... even in writing (((HUGS)))

7:02 pm

I tell him every day how much I admire him; and ask how I can help.

7:02 pm

*sigh* so maybe dealing with the pain isn't such a bad idea (i take all my posts back, red)

Well, I am running a Marathon in February, after that I might do it, maybe...

7:03 pm

that achilles tendon is now too long; which makes it interesting when youhave charley horses

7:03 pm

fireworks ... can i clue for a few minutes before i leave?

Nef, thats sounds terrible, terrible. and I am glad your son is such a star. Lots of love for him.

7:04 pm

YAY, welki! WTG!!!

7:04 pm

WOOHOO WELKI!!!

7:04 pm

thanks :)

Shoots off Roman Candles for Welki!!!!!

7:06 pm

red, a friends' hubby had the same injury that I had but his doctor chose to use braces (he has Parkinsons disease too). I wish I'd had a doc who would have been more conservative. Do you know if there is a brace that would help you?

7:06 pm

BTW, I like the idea of the frozen bottles for the feet! I'll have to try that!

7:06 pm

ok 12 s words to go...

I have to go back to Podiatrist and see what he says. I think my actual cutting the heel off my shoe has really improved it... we tried a month of cataflam but I could not really tolerate it three times daily.

7:06 pm

yucky as they sound, i did find some okay birk-looking sandals made by that grandma shoe company SAS -- and while they're pricey, they seem to have support in the right places and ease some of the pain (the style is Comfy)

7:07 pm

actually 12 P and s words

Help with the very last SH word?

7:08 pm

same as sc6/27 minus one letter

7:08 pm

7:11 pm

Gnight Welki- enjoyed chatting with you

7:11 pm

I have a REALLY ugly pair of shoes that my orthotics fit in; I feel like I'm wearing duck feet; but I have to wear them anytime I'm on my feet for any time at all

7:12 pm

night welki

good night Welki, good luck with your feet. and fish!

fireworks!!!!

7:12 pm

(nef .. better duck feet with a smile on your face than beeeyootiful shoes with a grimace)

7:12 pm

WTG Red !

7:13 pm

wtg dr, fire! okay, i'm gone *lol*

7:13 pm

ok .. i am off to help hubby in the garden...

7:13 pm

beeeyootiful shoes were never something I cared about. They always had to be comfy first; then how they looked

7:13 pm

Hang in there Nef- we are all here for you!

7:13 pm

* Poof *

I like shoes....but need places to wear them.

and now I am going to go to bed. sadly, I am a little sleepy.

7:17 pm

best place to wear them is on your feet

7:18 pm

I like comfy shoes; always have. Back 40 years ago I had some red oxfords that I wore for work all the time (as a public health nurse) I loved those shoes! As ugly as they were, they were so comfortable I didn't care what anyone else thought!

7:19 pm

good night red.

8:19 pm

yvw JMC

8:19 pm

rat-a-too-ee what a funny name, wonder what it means really -- veggie stew?

8:19 pm

I make zucchinni sauteed in butter with freshly grated nutmeg

8:19 pm

as stid pointed out, why are we talking eggplant when we could be talking choclit?

8:19 pm

*hands out lovely russian choclits from new friends*

8:19 pm

zukes dipped in chocolate!

8:19 pm

we also grill it on th ebbq with a little olive oil

8:19 pm

8:19 pm

that sounds lovely, jmc. I think nutmeg is the spice of the angels.

8:19 pm

ewwwwwwwwww

8:19 pm

now we're talking lbd

8:20 pm

yum chocolate

8:20 pm

that might be nice, too DR -- I could try it on my new grill!

8:20 pm

chocolate goes with everything...yes?

8:20 pm

actually gort I like eggplant a lot more than I like chocolate

8:20 pm

has anyone ever had a deep fried mars bar?

8:20 pm

we do that when we have kabobs

8:20 pm

wouldn't it melt, gort?

8:20 pm

yes I also had a deep fried dill pickle

8:20 pm

no Gort but I have had fried oreos

8:20 pm

wow jmc! you're not kidding are you?!?

8:20 pm

no to the deep fried candy bars.

8:20 pm

apparently, not stid, i guess it's dipped in and out super fast, super hot

8:20 pm

I want a deep fryer so I can make our family's famous "bug nuts"

8:21 pm

what

8:21 pm

brb checking pasta water

8:21 pm

what's an oreo and did it change your life?

8:21 pm

you dip in in batter and then the very hot frier and comes out fast and fried and gooey insides

8:21 pm

i like fried ice cream

8:21 pm

apologies! don't know how I got in there!

8:21 pm

oreos are cookies!

8:21 pm

It's like doughnuts, only instead of making round shapes you leave the dough sticky and pinch off spiky bits and drop it in the hot oil... mmmmm.

8:21 pm

I am assuming bug nuts are not deep fried roaches (which I have also eaten)

8:21 pm

I just like icecream. cold, melted, baked Alaska...

8:22 pm

**gortmold rearranging neurons to comprehend how a cookie gets fried**

8:22 pm

choclate cookie, cream filling

8:22 pm

bug nuts and ice cream would make a good combo too!

8:22 pm

there are deep fried oreos too!

8:22 pm

cockroaches crackling over an open fire....

8:22 pm

an oreo is two chocolate cookies with a white frosting sandwiched inbetween

8:22 pm

we will fry anything in the south!!! lol

8:22 pm

ruru, that's about the ONLY good use for roaches!

8:22 pm

Stid- read back in the chog about an hour ago- whole big ice cream discussion

8:22 pm

brb

8:22 pm

welcome, fouette

8:29 pm

hey fou, nice to sort of meet you

8:29 pm

Hello fouette

8:29 pm

anyway, going through clouds seems scary, but the instruments the pilots use are really very accurate and tell the pilots how high up they are, where they are by the map, and what other planes might be near.

8:29 pm

brb, double rainbow!

8:30 pm

we went throgh a cloudbank!~

8:30 pm

8:32 pm

8:32 pm

Tom just walked in and says hello, fouette

8:32 pm

gosh nell you are doing this without a monitor -- the mind boggles

8:33 pm

rofl... blind-babbling... bewildering!

8:33 pm

although some days it does feel that's what I am doing.

8:33 pm

I am completely unsupervised.

8:33 pm

Hope T, g, and M are good

8:33 pm

I smear vasoline on my monitor so that I look younger

8:33 pm

8:34 pm

jmc, that wont work

8:34 pm

lol jmc!

8:34 pm

8:34 pm

I smear vaseline on my mirrors so I look younger. Or at least so I can't tell I am getting older.

8:35 pm

* no comment *

8:35 pm

I am certain

8:35 pm

fouette, do you know I didn't get ANY pics with you at all? Was hoping to when we were on the mountain, and then everything blew up.

8:36 pm

the mountain blew up? is this on the news?

8:36 pm

Of course, when I stand next to ruru *demonstrates* I look like a fresh young flower...

8:36 pm

*checking for volcanic action around the world*

8:36 pm

we will try to send a pic

8:36 pm

no, the whole day blew up. I had five vans full of people go up the mountain, and only four to take them back down again. Clogged fuel pump apparently.

8:36 pm

* no comment **

8:36 pm

thanks fouette, will appreciate it muchly.

8:37 pm

it was HORRIBLE!

8:37 pm

hope they brought hiking boots

8:37 pm

so one van made two trips, and one person went back up in a private car. Of course it was one of the vans that held LOTS of people that broke down

8:37 pm

they didn't

8:37 pm

Is this Mount St Helens you talking about?

8:37 pm

bummer :-(

8:38 pm

No, THE Mountain. Rainier.

8:38 pm

where people get lots from time to time

8:38 pm

Next time we'll go to St. Helens which at least is a bit shorter.

8:38 pm

rainier is cool!

8:39 pm

quite literally -- there I was, wishing for a sunny day to show off our lovely mountain and we couldn't even see it because the clouds were halfway down.

8:39 pm

It was raining in Paradise! *sigh*

8:39 pm

*lost

8:39 pm

o like it NEVER rains in Washington State

8:39 pm

*grin* they also get "lots" apparently -- at times... certainly were plenty of people on the mountain Friday

8:40 pm

my husband said that when he got homesick for Washington State he just stood in a shower fully dressed

8:40 pm

it was cool even with clouds

8:40 pm

a COLD shower, jmc?

8:40 pm

it was lovely -- Gio took some excellent pics of things with the mist wrapping around them.

8:40 pm

that was silly!

8:40 pm

I never asked if it was cold

8:41 pm

I assume so since I was never warm in Washington State

8:41 pm

I think jmc's husband was a funny man -- wish I could have met him. He was a greener grad, too!

8:41 pm

i feel like i'm living in seattle...it's been drizzly for several days now.

8:41 pm

yes, you're about two days behind. It was pleasant here today, LBD, and dry yesterday.

8:41 pm

did Gio get home well?

8:41 pm

well then you would need some piercings and several tatoos now lbd

8:42 pm

he made me laugh -- that is why I married him -- that and the fact he was my 13 marriage proposal

8:42 pm

They're in New York at the moment, but I think they're having a good time.

8:42 pm

oh good, need to scrub off some of the mold.

8:42 pm

oh ruru! tattoos are optional!

8:42 pm

I am getting good at this!

8:56 pm

annie green springs

8:56 pm

ru don't let them drive you off!

8:57 pm

and babblets are words not in common use that often appear in the grid like "inia" which is a hairy-nosed dolphin

8:57 pm

9:02 pm

when I was in hospital a few years ago, off island, son and d-i-l stayed here for a few days and drank all the red wines from South Africa which I had saved to mature. Did they replace it? Well, of course they couldn't, but didn't even offer.

Hi Jen, Hi Bugsaw!

9:32 pm

I get a list of birthdays from celebrity-link.com and I get the information about celebrities from imd.com.

9:32 pm

hi ibd!!!

9:34 pm

Last night I missed the flip since it took me awhile to type in all the info.Think I'll have Sean Penn tomorrow

9:34 pm

9:35 pm

min, you type in all that info by HAND??? wow!

9:35 pm

i do enjoy your celebrity birthday icons, min.

9:35 pm

9:35 pm

min is a speed typist

9:36 pm

happy birthday bugsaw offspring! how old is he?

9:37 pm

Yes.Sometimes if I do "on this day in history" I'll copy and paste,but I don't do that too often.Don't include all of the information from imd.com so I type in what I want to include and leave out what I think is boring

9:39 pm

Happy birthday to your grandson.He shares is b-day with/lots of celebrities today. I share my b-day with Mike Farrell, Bob Marley, Ronald Reagon, & Babe Ruth

sorry - I am only half paying attention - mad men is on!!!

9:46 pm

does anyone else here use a2z wordfinder?

9:46 pm

Hello nrkii!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

9:46 pm

hi minveryork, I'm good... I finished earlier, but wanted to check in about a2z

9:46 pm

hi everyone

9:47 pm

No, I do not use a2z wordfinder or morewords.I just use Lickety's list and then clues from this chog nrkii.

9:47 pm

a2z has been acting very hinkey on me the last week or so, and I wanted to see if anyone else had the same issue

9:47 pm

Congratulations nrkii on your early fireworks!Hooray

Babble has been acting very hinkey w /me a little bit.

9:48 pm

i use puzzlers.org for the most part

9:49 pm

it's been randomly opening other pages on me cjmomma, and I think it's trying to give me a virus

9:49 pm

c's concussed, thank goodness!

9:49 pm

ohhhh it hasn't done that to me

9:49 pm

congrats trif...still stuck on s's here

9:49 pm

There has been a lag in the chog or sometimes it can not enter the word. Can be very frustrating at times

9:49 pm

I'm scared to open it now, but I haven't found a good replacement

9:50 pm

try puzzlers.org nrkii.

9:50 pm

9:51 pm

Norton, as of a few months ago when I had my computer cleaned and fixed

9:51 pm

I use AVG and spybot and havn't had that problem...

9:51 pm

the guy at PC Doctor recommended I go with Norton

9:51 pm

I don't like Norton, doesn't catch all the nasties out there. I use McAfee.

9:51 pm

they are both great and free! :)

9:52 pm

I used to use McAfee, but I got majorly infected

9:52 pm

Norton wasn't free for me. I paid $50.00 for it I think

9:52 pm

none of them are perfect, I guess ... :(

9:52 pm

both norton and mcafee slowed computer down and still things got through

9:52 pm

okay, I'm gonna run... gotta go do something about my 10 mosquito bites that are driving me insane

9:53 pm

so my comp friend turned me onto AVG free and it's great

9:53 pm

have a good night all!

9:53 pm

e's ended!

9:53 pm

I think mcafee is free for aol users.I had it for awhile

9:53 pm

I use AVG and sybot and it always says my machine is clean, but Babble has not been working well for me either. It is not consistant

9:53 pm

I haven't had problems with McAfee at all. Norton crashed me big time and had to start from scratch including getting a new windows program.

9:53 pm

f's finished!

9:53 pm

night nrk

9:53 pm

Goodbye nrkii! I will see you tomorrow in the ch 4/6.

10:12 pm

On a roll like sausage, onions and ketchup, Trif? *grins*

10:13 pm

min, are you here? need more help with ha 7. ha, hook and to allow? wont take it ...

10:13 pm

ha7/32 is a variation of a sandwich slice made from offal - it's usually called ha****.

10:13 pm

no, but sounds awfully tasty jac!

10:13 pm

(The usual name is ha* (possesses) + what an apartment is when it's rented out.)

10:13 pm

maybe not with onions, tho - don't love them!

Jac up until today no dramas. Today being a giant poo head

10:14 pm

what? sandwhich slice what is offal?

10:14 pm

Maybe you need to clean our cache, Herin?

10:15 pm

And, as Dame Edna often said, 'I mean that in the nicest possible way!' LOL

10:15 pm

lol Jac

10:15 pm

Oh, and I meant your cache not our cache. LOL. Still haven't cleaned this filthy keyboard.

cache? um

10:15 pm

nothing is working with dictionary jac.

10:16 pm

mkg - offal is the heart, lungs, liver etc from an animal.

10:16 pm

dict. wont take any ha words i put in. maybe hook letter is not what i think. i think it is before the letter s. am i correct? if so what is wrong???????

10:16 pm

Ab ha 7/32 word is the heart, liver, etc., of a hog or other animal used for food. Put definition in reverse dictionary. It is number two with a hook letter mkg.

10:16 pm

organs eh? so what are these called???????

10:17 pm

Try this, mkg - ha* + French masculine +consonant that makes the ha* word a deer hind.

10:17 pm

An ha 7/32 word is the heart, liver, etc., of a hog or other animal used for food. Put definition in reverse dictionary. It is number two with a hook letter mkg.

10:20 pm

kidney and venison is in there.

10:20 pm

ignore the definition and try my clue, mkg

10:21 pm

Bug - I've said all of that already in slightly different form. I hope mkg gets your clue.

10:21 pm

10:21 pm

Congratulations cjmomma on your fireworks! Hooray

10:22 pm

yes, but you need more than one for the first part of the word, You have the ending

10:22 pm

mkg - the ha*l** word is right. Now add the letter for the start of a wedding band or a circle.

10:22 pm

harlet not in dict!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is what is being clued over and over and over! sorry all, retireing.

maybe I should just hit the vodka bottle

10:22 pm

Well done cjm.

10:22 pm

10:22 pm

10:23 pm

Goodbye cjmomma! I will see you tomorrow in the log

10:23 pm

I wouldn't do that, Herin! Well I (underlined) wouldn't because I'm allergic to voddie.

10:24 pm

ok good luck and have fun!!!!

10:24 pm

10:24 pm

10:24 pm

Goodbye mkg! I will see you tomorrow in this ch 4/6!

10:25 pm

I didn't leave it out, mkg - I told you ha* (possesses) + what an apartmnt is when it's rented.

10:25 pm

Bye Min. Thanks for the help

10:25 pm

'Nigh mkg.

10:25 pm

Keep on with it, Trif.

10:26 pm

Min - it doesn't sit in mine or my daughter's stomach at all; even a sip maks us vomit.

10:26 pm

I was reprimanded earlier for using hook letter since everyone knows what a hook letter is&clue was easy

10:26 pm

I am not leaving Bugsaw.I was saying goodbye to mkg

10:27 pm

Go Trifioso go!

10:27 pm

I've had just three words left since 8:50 this evening

Ok it was an expression this internet is giving me the irrates

10:27 pm

Oh sorry, I am not quite paying attention here because there is work going on with bathroom renovations and I need to know when there will be a toilet again.

10:28 pm

Min - I'm not a fan of virtually spelling words out either but sometimes it is warranted.

10:28 pm

So have you been using mother nature as your toilet?

10:28 pm

FOr sure. When I am blind to a word you have to spell it out in finger spelling for me to get it. lol

10:29 pm

Not quite. It is balanced carefully over the hole and then you have to flush it by dumping a bucket of water into it. We only have one bathroom and this is NOT working for me. The men don't seem to care!

10:30 pm

Bugsaw - when my bathroom (only one at the time) was being renovated along with a house extension, I had to use a bucket in the greenhouse up the top of the garden. (It has bubblewrap coating the inside of the windows, so no one could see me.)

10:30 pm

FIREWORKS!!! woot woot

10:30 pm

Yay Trif!

10:30 pm

Well done, Trif.

10:30 pm

Congratulations Trifioso on fireworks!Hooray for you

10:31 pm

I was threatened with that Jac but I would rather wait for the times when the pot is positioned over the hole for a while.

10:31 pm

Bug - men don't care if no.1 or no.2. They can ;go' anywhere. We ladies don't feel quite the same.

10:32 pm

The other problem with a bucket and no toilet is, where do you get rid of it? I am not driving around town with a smelly bucket in the backseat looking for an outhouse!!!

10:33 pm

I agree completely Jac. Men have no clue when it comes to this stuff. He took the tub and the toilet out first!

10:33 pm

Bug - I COULD still use the loo in the bathroom, but the side was open to the street, until I put old sh5/12's up there with drawing pins, AND the team of 6 or 7 builders were standing down on the open floor below waiting for me to finish.

10:33 pm

*blush*

10:34 pm

Oh gross! An audience is too much!!

Tree

10:35 pm

Indeed it is, Bug. Incidentally, I see you have guinea pigs like I do. One of mine down died last week so down to 4 now.

10:35 pm

No trees today, Herin.

10:35 pm

How sad Jac. They can be the best therapy for a sad soul.

10:36 pm

Sorry about that. At least you still got four more still.

10:36 pm

Bug - if your click on my profile and look at my flickr pics you can see Margaret (the gp who died)'s story.

10:37 pm

any clues on al 4,4?

No use one it is better

10:38 pm

al 4/4 is al plus double vowels Sudo-Kid and hello there

10:38 pm

Hi :D thanks so much :D

10:38 pm

yw

10:38 pm

Min - yep! 4 guinea pigs, a pigeon murdering cat (he's brought 3 squabs home in past 2 days) and a teenaged step daughter, plus a 25-yr-old son still at home, and a 22-yr-old daughter who's in her own home not far away now, but still needs my help re cooking or sewing or how to get mysterious stains out of clothes.

10:39 pm

how bout al 4,7?

10:39 pm

Poor Margaret. She had a long year but she was a beauty wasn't she?

10:39 pm

PLUS your beloved Jac!How can you forget about him

Aww Poor Margaret. Also the cat maybe trying to feed you

10:40 pm

May I please

10:40 pm

al 4/7 is friendly tv alien with extra letter near end.

10:40 pm

Bug - she was rather lovely. Very vociferous though - when I trimmed her long hair to get the pee-laden sawdust balls out of it, or even just brushed or combed it, she screamed the place down. You'd think ever hair had a nerve ending it.

10:40 pm

Well, I will start this over...May I please have a clue for ce5-12 the 1st? Thanks

10:41 pm

The ce 5/12 sounds like what coins are gapeach1066

10:42 pm

ce5/12: I burn ince*** to make the room smell better.

10:42 pm

Thanks so much, Min.

10:42 pm

Min - I've not forgotten Beloved, but, if you read my blog (you are an invited member there I think?) you'll se I'm playing Nazareth's 1973 hit Bad Bad Bpy for him right now, re his little bit of cheating when he did his fig leaf photo.

10:42 pm

yw

10:44 pm

Wow! It only took my monkeys 3 hours to find a word

10:45 pm

I thought he was 'swinging low' when I edited with a yellow pen... he'd taken the ripe fig (the onlyfig on the tree this year, in fact) and hung it below his natural accoutrements. Fooledme on the photo, which is why I censored it.

10:45 pm

hello 63 to go

10:45 pm

ep5-14 please....thanks

10:45 pm

Jac we used to give our long hairs a bath. They loved it much more than I ever imagined they would and it was much easier to soak the crud out than brush it out. Margaret reminds me of me when I was little and my mother tried to braid my hair. It was horrific

10:45 pm

Hi Harp.

10:45 pm

Hi harpjane! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

10:46 pm

That ep5/14 word is e plus pa 4/6 word gapeach1066

Thanks much, Jacula.

10:47 pm

Jac your beloved sounds like quite the character! I truly laffed out loud

10:47 pm

I have one smooth-coated Abysinnian and 3 rough-coated left now, Bug.

10:48 pm

Bug - he makes me truly LOL at leat once a day, which is partly why I love him so much. As I said in my blog.

10:49 pm

sc5-14 the 2nd please...Thanks

10:49 pm

well, i am going to have to call it quits with 115 words in 2 and a half hours! Pretty easy!

10:49 pm

There is nothing better than laughter to cure what ails you, as my Granny would say.

10:52 pm

Thanks once again, Min.

10:52 pm

Oh yes! Good luck with your surgery JenMO16 & bye!

10:52 pm

Jen - hope the surgery goes well. Back in the 60s, my Mum used to get the ganglions but had to wait or them to be 'ripe'. When they got big enough, she used to bash them on th greenhouse door frame.

10:52 pm

yw

10:53 pm

Good luch on the surgery, Jen. Sending good vibes to you.

10:53 pm

10:57 pm

Jen - then it's not 'ripe'. Once it's soft, sterilise a pin and let the fluid out.

bah somone do my assignment for me

10:59 pm

Thanks, Min. I'm down to two.

10:59 pm

Go gapeach1066 go!

The size of the pin depends on the consistency of the content of the cy4. If it's clear liquid, a normal dressmaking pin will do. If it's the contistency of cream cheese, a larger egress point needs to be made, but must be sterile. The cy4 sac will still be ther to fill up again if agravated though.

There's a modern equivalent now from Eastern Europe, but it's either men and women forced to work for less than the minimum wage or women and young girls forced to prositute themselves.

11:06 pm

Well done gapeach.

11:06 pm

Congratulations gapeach1066 on fireworks! Hooray!

11:07 pm

Goodbye gapeach1066!I will see you tomorrow maybe

11:07 pm

Oh, and may I just add that it's normally a 'fellow countryman' or their own that does that to them.

11:08 pm

*of their own.

11:09 pm

Excuse my cynicism, but having a bro-in-law (even and ex) who is a policeman opens my eyes at times.

11:09 pm

Jacula, I've been trying to bring up your profile but have not had success. Think it's my computer...will keep trying.

11:10 pm

gap - trying clearing your cache.

11:10 pm

Please tell me how to do that, Jacula.

11:11 pm

What browser are you using, gapeach? Firefox or IE?

11:12 pm

I think it is still Mozilla-Firefox.

11:12 pm

Okay - click on tools to your top left.

11:13 pm

Then click on Clear Private Data - 8th down on list.

11:13 pm

Then tick browsing history, cache and authenticated sessions.

11:14 pm

Do you also have cc cleaner on your pc?

11:14 pm

Jacula, I will have to let go of this page to do that. Let me try and I will come back here.

11:14 pm

Don't click on cookies unless you;ve never done it before and tend to ask websites to 'remember you'.

11:15 pm

Click on cookies too, then.

11:15 pm

And then sign back into Babble.

11:16 pm

I will wait, gapeach.

11:16 pm

Using Namoroka 3.6a 1

11:17 pm

Hi BR. Don't know that one.

11:17 pm

Firefox alpha

11:17 pm

OOh! My son nver told me about that version, BR.

11:18 pm

Just out last week .. seems faster

11:18 pm

Mind you, he might have justput me on it without me knowing. He's like that at times.

11:18 pm

Makes me look like a fool if I'm not informed though.:(

11:19 pm

No, I don't think I'm on that yet.

and I am done with this stinky grid

Bye lovelys

11:20 pm

Jacula, I am wofully ignorant here. I went there, or so I thought, but was unable to find the things you told me to go to.....I will keep trying to bring up your profile as before....sometimes it let's me and sometimes it doesn't...i think it is PMSing. Thanks for the help

Goodbye Jacula! I will see you tomorrow in the chog!

11:34 pm

My son-in-law does photography as a hobby and I think it will eventually become a business. His website is: smflynn.com and the other is: flickr.com/photos/smflynn. He has some beautiful pictures and does quite well. They had a show last weekend in Mystic, CT. Then next will be in NYC in October. Thought y'all might like to see what he has done.

11:47 pm

When you get on his first website go the Travel: Greece and you will see some great stuff, but look for one with a really odd green goard. That goard graced out table until it was no longer a great conversation piece but just really need to go in the trash can. Oh, well.

help please. I am missing one of the last pa4/5 words. Right before the pa4/7 Thanks.

11:48 pm

Didn't mean to take over on the chat box.

11:48 pm
