hi carol
i've been working so much lately! havent had any time at all to go online :(
hello carol
I just read that La Presse will cease publication as of Dec 1st if workers don;t take heavy paycuts!
good aftereve everyone
groooovy!
newspapers are really suffering
Hey Kiwi...long time no see!
Hi carol
hi kiwi!
omg mar!!!!! hugs
and jilli and ata!!! HUGS TO YOU TOO
opps sorry for the caps there
how are you??!!
terrible news justie..
capital hugs are good!
hi kiwi
what kate? about la presse?
howdy kiwi!
im doing really well but my eldest son not that good
oh? what's wrong?
i dont know if word has filtered through to everyone but he has beend iagnosed with a lump on his brain
yes, decent paper...they're almost a;ll in big trouble...something called the interweb or something is cutting into ad revenues
oh, kiwi, so sorry to hear; benign?
I hear CanWest is in trouble too -- Mtl Gazette is one of theirs, likewise the Victoria Times-Colonist, Vancouver Sun...
oh no I'm so sorry to hear :( is it a tumour?
not sure yet they are just monitoring it with mri's so far - we have had three in the last 6 weeks
that can't be fun for him or you :(
canwest is in terrible trouble jil..fighting for survival...their tv stns. too
let's hope it's benign, kiwi
are they planning a biopsy kiwi?
I so wish the best for you and your son, kiwi
we find out in about 10 days once the neurosurgeon gets the resullts of the latest mri done this afternoon
I sure hope you'll come on and tell us...
sounds like a good plan
it doesn't seem right that it should take 10 days, good grief!
Our Victoria TV station almost got executed -- emplyees have bought it I think -- it's still on the air but was supposed to shut down Monday night
its the public system over here sorry
am just waiting for a referral to go private
It's scary eh, jilli
all that time to worry, how stressful for you!
You have that option in NZ, kiwi?
I have 9 ra's 5 ri's and 3 ro's. I'm missing 2. ANy help?
Well, I get the Times-Colonist online, and the Mtl Gazette headlines via email
they've divested quite a few in the smaller areas, or where there is too much competition. got rid of hamilton here. their stock has tanked. weekly they have to do patchwork re-financing just to keep gasping...
have same as you arb
and the T-C has dropped their Monday edition
yes but its expensive - thank goodness ive kept my medical insurance up to date and the ex is coming to the party to help with the upfront fees
then ill repay him back out of my refunds
ra x 10
that is a blessing kiwi
Groovy, you both have my prayers and sympathy, I've been worrying about our son, too, and his sudden recent severe headache bout, so I can really understand.
Oh kiwi, you and your son didn't need all this after all you've been through!
do you have private medical or medical from work, kiwi?
hes actually been quite nice to me lately but i think that thats because hes too embarrased to tell me that his new partner is pregnant and they are going to havce a kid around xmas
here are all the r's: ra 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, 5, 4, 6, 4 ri 4, 5, 4, 4, 5 ro 4, 5, 5
ty, Dee!
yw rb
no its private medical mar
may be that he is truly concerned about your son tho
oh he is probably that too but its the first time since he left
yes i know im bitter and i guess i have every right to be but he is becoming easier to talk to and talk with lately so ....
well, I'm really going to bed now -- night all, and good luck.
well maybe he's finally growing up

I can't cope with enable robbing me of a hard found word just as I get started on the grid. GASMA.. isn't allowed! SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
< hands pat a sedative >
se js
I have to shop shortly and I just thought a quick visit before I set off. My nerves are jangling now so can I have 2 sedatives please?
< hands pat the whole bottle, so she can get her shopping done and come back smiling >
Thanks TK. Shopping with a left arm just out of a sling. luckily I am right-handed but still a bit wary. Bet I quit halfway and come back early to babbling. This grid looks tricky! See you later.
a wounded babler, take care...think i'm turning in soon ads well
morning all
good morning sprite
nice size today
deceptive though, started out not too badly...then BAMMO! am staring at letter that refuse to form words..
sounds like babble to me
on the other hand, quitea few have finished without the aid of lickety....
could really use another consonant in the lower left corner
K greyed out
well done, i tried kois but i guess it doesn't like fish. still searchin g for one
the plural of koi is koi. It is a japanese word.
still have an o, i needed for nbt
no wonder...fish-slap
literally
yes, a big, smelly dead one
good morning
hi Kallia
hi kallia
I was here at some ungodly hour
managed to get down to 72
earlier tonight?
well this morning for me
been a t it on and off since flip(watching tv) still need 87...
flip ia at 1 am for me...sigh
do you have the i from the right hand column?
Just started here. And updated icon theme and icon. Actually was sorry to let go of the sand sculpture... it was so amazing. But here's my icon clue for today.
yes
refreshing
it is a metal, Kallia. Here is a fish...
lol....worded that wrong obviously
iron
*giggle* Yes, verrrrrry good!
fish indeed...
I can spell and understand simple clues...do I get a gold star?
and don't forget to re-enter it in the right window :)
I did that thank you hehehe
you get two. One for each feature!
I cant believe I missed that!
obviously my early morning fogginess hasn't cleared yet
babble blindness, Kallia. No true babbler can claim it never happened to him/her, lol.
I have gone to get my blood tested already this morning. I should be sharp. But am not.
hope the tests are fine Sprite
I have two art projects and two looming deadlines and my muse has gone walkabout
yeah, or that they show some reasons for problems, and may they be reasons that can easily be solved. But won't be so lucky, probably.
ouch! You have to lure back the muze. Take a bath. Go for a walk. Meditate. Listen to wonderful music.
no pessimistic thughts allowed today Sprite:)
lol, you've got it! Babble works wonders that way for me.
I always have music on, I will just start with the paints soon and hopefully something will come of it ..
sometimes it works
good morning everyone
morning jacq
what do you listen to kallia?
did the baby sleep last night?
that is what I always said for writing. Just be willing to write garbage, just start doing it, and inspiration will follow.
hi jacq!
anything and everthing
heya sprite
Queen on loud when I am in full flow, but right now Joni Mitchell
good morning jacq
heay kate
lol i bet queen is something else when the creative juices are flowing
it is a filthy day when you can't get any soap
i hope your muse returns soon kallia
well one thing I have learnt...it always does. Dry spells are a pain, but possibly a necessity so that you recoup and move on ,,
yes, and that it comes back soonest when you work on.
oh yes..you have to try and ignore it...hard sometimes ...
do you write Sprite?
I used to. 2 books published. But bad health has interfered. Hope to get back to it one day, though... one day soon I hope.
I'm sure you will, I don't think it's a talent that will disappear...
no, not the talent, nor the drive. But without energy to spare it has been hard. Am working real hard now on building up energy and keeping it at a reasonable level. That will bring back many joys of life!
i agree with kallia, when you have less to deal with it will come roaring back
and who knows, I might even be a bit wiser and have more to write about ;)
your health is the priority...and wiser sure you will be! I am looking for that best seller from you!
Ata already told me to start writing in english :)
oh yes....you must do that. Although if you have a best seller it will translate
that's true. But finding a publisher might be easier with english. Ah well, who knows. First of all health. And when it comes to writing, first of all enjoying the actual writing.
I like your clue icon, but can I have one for something I don't have please Sprite?
hmmmm do you havev the old russian style of monarchy?
I do have that one
:)
the 7 too?
yep :)
darn! :P Thing to wear in the kitchen?
good god...Kitchen??????? where's that?
where the other people do the cooking, I believe
This is the 247th day of the year, with 118 days remaining in 2009.
good morning BR
and may it be a good day to you, BabbleRabble. Thanks for counting to the end and not the evil days before.
i keep seeing strapon, does that mean i'm sick?
or maybe afternoon or evening
hello BR
Hello, peeples
hi hi hi Jacq....
or is it just my mind?
was my first word, jacq. If so, we both are.
lol
i like hanging with sick people they are so much more fun that the normals
that's what they say about hell in holland. "I suppose heaven will be the prettier place, but in hell you'll meet the more interesting people."
lol heaven or hell, all the "nice" people or all your friends mmmmm tough choice LOL
indeed yes...it's where all my friends will lbe!
oh well that person in the kitchen has got coffee ready...so coffee and then I will be muse hunting
catch you guys later
bye kallia, good luck
bye Kallia, have a good day and an inspiring muse
i think my town is cut off
cut off from what? Muse network?
the river spey has flooded it's banks, as has the river lossie and the roads are impassable
they are speaking about evacuating people all over moray
wow jacq, sorry, that is no laughing matter. Does that happen often?
so much for their multi million pound flood prevention scheme
my own town doesn't flood much, just those at the lower levels, but moray floods a lot
so many rivers and streams
that is awful. But glad you will be okay at least.
did i hear someone call for a "sick" person?
i will and everybody i know will be fine, but i feel for those people in elgin, they can't even get house insurance because they flood every year
good morning BR
heya kate, you sick woman you!!
and too beautiful a place to move out from?
Hello, TK
why thank yu jacq, nice to meet someone who appreciates a warped sens of humour
not so easy to move when they can't sell their homes and there is a serious housing problem here too
how's the environment this day br?
indeed so, jacq. Even sadder when you realise how much money has been spent to prevent it, without result then.
would you like me to send you a row boat?
too much pollution .. too few who care
the trouble is that the rivers involved travel through three counties and the councils won't co-operate, so fixing one area makes it worse elsewhere
i'm safe here kate, would take a flood of biblical proportions to reach me
co-operation seems to be a bad word nowadays.
would it help if i stopped burning coal in my stove?
no kate lol
every little helps, said Yung-O-Lee
climate change is a cycle on earth, all we're doing is speeding it up
and watered in the Yellow Sea
oh sprite...hehehe
morning everyone x
morning Katie!
hi all!
oh the council has declared a major whatever and they are evacuating from four towns, 25 schools closed and many roads
heya ata
seems like everyone here has something to say about the climate, they do seem to care
*hugs Ata* Is that a finished piece of work?
hi ata, hi katie
that does sound rather bad jacq
kind of .... finished on paper anyway ...
it has been raining heavily non stop for over 36 hours
I like it. As usual.
it's beautiful ata
am now doing a x-stitch version :)
oh dear! And don't even try to turn it into a perfect symmetry, won't you?
perhaps you would prefer plans for an ark? i know a guy, noaah..
it *is* perfect :P
lol that is wat I mean. Or it would become plain.
*what
lol my daughter called her grandad today and asked him if he would build an ark
lol jacq
he said why? he's in a boat in the harbour and he's safe lol
as long as it's not raining frogs i guess we're okay for now
hehehe wtg for granddad
AAACCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK
nm, thought that welsh was sneaking up on me again
crwth
cwrth even lol
ah
ack i mean
either require sleep or coffee, not sure which
sleep kate
one of my favorite words
you haven't slept much lately
sleep
Good morning/evening all.
haz!!
heya haz
Hello! We've got sunshine. It's practically unprecedented.
huh!!
sulks
hi haz, nice change after 40 days/40 night s of rain?
I wouldn't put too much energy into sulking, it'll probably be away in about ten minutes.
sunshine here too!
hi Haz, isn't it lovely. Just sent you an email, btw.
gives jacq tea and crumpets so she won't sulk
scoff those and goes to make coffee and have a ciggie
Hello sprite - will check on e-mail.
just as good :-))
Hello again. Raining here...but dams almost at 29% full, going up! Yay!
hi lyn :)
good evening lynn
Hello lynxxx.
not good, lyn. Are you at risk there?
must tend to cooking...a stew boiled is a stew spoiled...
oops gtg bbs!
that's good news lynxx, how low did it get?
bye TKate
oh dear... ignore my post, lyn. Was still with jacq with thoughts of flooding. You need the water, don't you?
bye for now, Ata
it is a mixed blessing sprite the dam may fill and there could be bad floods too
water management, as you will understand, is a priority issue in the netherlands. But we usually don't have serious droughts here.
i can imagine sprite
Jacq - 25.something, its just started to go up...the last 3 years have been about 20% less than prior years. 12 Years ago they were at 80%.
no you've got a tenacious little boy who'll stand patiently plugging dike holes..
we could divert some of ours lynxxx, we're all blocked off and stuff
ah our Hans. Yes. But he has only 10 fingers.
i don't think my shopping will be delivered
Bottle it up and send it over jacq
and 10 toes...and maybe a brother?
LOL will take a lot of bottles
lol kate, i was thinking that too
we have sunshine here but I can't believe how cold it is!
now that would be something great, jacq and lyn. If they ever would find a way to do that.
How often do the rivers flood like this Jacq?
Good morning Katie!
it's a natural flood plane
< wicked grin > ; /
you build houses hwere there hasn't been a flood in memory then it rains like some curse
morning Haz :-)
in elgin oce it was so bad a land rover salesroom was flooded so badlt they were loating onto the main road and down the street
sorry - LMAO
picturing a land rover that should be all terrain as4....helplessly
it's funny now, but it was awful at the time, but everybody got together and they were sending clothes and furniture for the people affected, all the hotels gave them rooms over xmas
run a pirate flag up the antenna maybe?
must have been pretty bad to go through though
have to go and give the kitties the attention they crave, see you all soon
bye Katie, have a good day
See you later, Katie.
sprite some of those homes are still being repaired, they had to be stripped out completely and everything in the house discarded if it got wet or not because of the polutants in the water
over christmas? awful time to be out of house
bye katie
by katie
and now with the new flooding? They can start all over again?
we drove up with stuff for the collection and the streets were full of skips, it was so heartbreaking
200 homes in elgin evacuated last night, 50 in fochabers, more in aberlour and rothes
am really sorry, jacq, it is a bad situation. On people and on the society there.
high tide coming soon too
so sad
do they have enough shelter for them all?
yes they use the schools on higher ground
and people make room too
winton train to arrive liverpool st. station soon, live on bbc now
Was just looking at some pictures of Elgin. very attractive - when not flooded!
just remember you said that husing was already in short supply...
it is lynxxx, very historic too, some rare fossils found there too
nods it is kate
winton train kate?
all i have is escape to the country, would i get it on sky news?
uk has some very unusual fossils. isn't there a small, but good museum in scotland fo paleo?
there are a few kate, i used to take my gils to abeach that has fossilised dinosaur footprints and tail marks
i have a bbc int'l channel. winton train is steam train doing anniversary trip czeck to england taking children to safety just before borders slammed shut at beginning of wew2
ahhhhhhhhhhhh
it's not covered here, not even on the news, that's so sad
too close to home, jacq :(
There'll probably be a segment on the evening news, though.
almost every one who was on train has come to make the journey...from all over world. the train is vintagein and out!
'course the people are vintage too
these things should be covered, our children shoudn't be allowed to forget the human cost of the war, the civilian cost or military
i'm surprised, it's evern been on the business channel here
I'm sure it will be on, jacq, they covered the Evacuees Service from Westminster Abbey the other day.
sky news has devoted two screens to michael jacksons funeral
the surprising thing is when they began to move the people out to ghettos, the last trains were going east and west...ironically the ones that chose wedst - though germany and beyond made it. the ones who went east towards russia did not. those lines were closed and all deported to camps
if i hear MJ one more time i shall scream...this is not an idle threat...
Haz, didn't know about the embroidery :)
I don't like to boast, sprite.
But if I can help somebody...
I know that, Haz. I am impressed.
(titters in the background)
did you lose family in ww2 sprite?
You know me so well, lynxxx.
why, TKate?
you said too close to home, didn't kinow if you were referrring to the camps
sorry, please return to your regularly scheduled chat...
ah, I understand. I meant the train. UK and Netherlands often don't cover their local events as well as they do international things.
i see, ty... but i am international?
spending too much time looking outwards
aren't we all international
I should have said broadcast, probably. Indeed jacq, that is what I meant.
not a bad thing to understand what goes on in relation to the rest of world...gives context
but context is only interesting in relation to text.
n. america doesn't cover so much int'l...canada more than u.s. you'd think nothing newsworthy ever happens outside their borders...???
when we had the flooding where the horses were all driven together on a small island, it was all over the international news. Not so much here.
well said but so many things really are inter-related, even though diverse geographically...and when you throw in the history, a full picture is painted which helps lead to understanding
It can depend on how clearly and objectively the history is told.
but then again, we also have some local shows and broadcasts that focus on things so local even next door's neighbour wouldn't want to know.
cute animals in distress always grab the headlines...it sells
indeed Haz. History records are biassed in many ways.
think of seals, polar bears, pandas, koalas
to the victor go the spoils and the chance to write the history books
Absolutely, and the other man's version is always not correct.
exactly
history is written by the victorious-who said that?
there is no absolute truth
brb
my father used to say: nothing is completely true. Not even this.
rread us history, they never lost a war...and deny we came kicked their buns and burned down the first whitehouse...haha
would have liked your dada sprite
no you wouldn't have, TKate. But he has some good sayings.
do like this bbc world news channel. they have 1 hour weekly devoted to china and another to india..very interesting for invrestment news
asda just called we aren't getting our food because we are shut off
goes out to kill next doors rabbit
brb
darn jacq. Now what? Are your cupboards filled up with stuff?
Hope you have tins in the pantry Jacq. You have power, water OK?
She means it, too.
what will you do? can they bring tomorrow?
well, that is a good remedy as well, lol
Jacq! not the rabbit!! nooooo!
i always have food for at least two weeks
am so glad Scrabbler isn't here
(glad Stew doesn't live over there)
what is asda?
walmart chain
Hi folks - long time away!
he certainly has a dangerous name, lyn
haasen pfeffer mmm
spellit! It indeed is. Good to see you again.
Do you store porridge in drawers like old Scots were reputed to do, jacq? Hack out a piece every day until the shops open again.
Hello Spellit!
Spellit! How nice to see you! What news?
lol yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nothing like tradition, right Haz?
Some traditions are best left in the past. Drawer porridge might just be one of them.
Lots of holidays and loads of things to take me away from babble. All good though.
i agree
that's life, spellit. IRL. Wonderful :)
Good stuff Spellit
Good to hear you have good excuses, spellit. Are you still slim and leaping about like a young thing?
is there a list anywhere please
*sends Haz to sin bin*
I don't dare to check what sort of drawers they are
might be on babanon, regis.
lyn!!!!! LOL
I have kept the weight off and go to the gym three times a week!
thank you
I blame spellit.
Well done, spellit, sometimes keeping the weight off is as hard as losing it.
where is FMitch when we need her :)
wow spellit, that is even more impressive than losing it.
I get blamed for everything1 No change there then.
It's always nice to have you here to blame, spellit. FM isn't taking her turn like she should.
I also have a new lady in my life...
I will admit you are a good second, spellit, though
I know! How goes the romance?
ah! Wtg spellit. And congratulations.
Still great and we have never had a row yet!
That's lovely to hear, I wish you both well.
Thanks Hazel
Just keep saying 'Yes dear' and you're onto a winner.
Yes dear!
hehehe
Beautifully said!
And now the gym calls so see you later
fireflies. Good bye all, have a good day and be safe.
bye Spellit
Bye spellit. Don't do too much weightlifting, I'm not fond of the Popeye look. Have a good day!
Congrats Sprite...you have a good day too
Congratulations sprite - have a good day as well.
gn sprite
jacq - still here?
How many words today please
yes sorry was trying to catch that wabbit LOL
208 words
208 SDTins
TY Both
1 x 9 , 0 x 8, 8 x 7 , 18 x 6, 66 x 5, 115 x 4
is it a wild rabbit raiding the garden or escapee pet from next door raiding garden?
it's a pet in a large pen
lol
Bye for now. Going to get coffee and settle in for Torchwood. Season 1 which I had never seen
will leave it for now don't want a skinny rabbit lol
bye lynxxx
enjoy and good bye lyn, good series, though i have missed quite a few myself
Enjoy, lynxxx, and if you see John Barrowman looking nervously over his shoulder, you'll know who he's worried about.
lol
John Barrowman? Where???!
(how was that for timing!)
I knew it. One mention and she's here.
LOL
LOL
hi again ata
literally just walked back in the door
heya ata, perfect timing
Just as I'm about to take a break, as well.
awwww. perambulation time?
the rain has stopped!!!!!
Almost - and the sun has disappeared again, right on cue.
does a little happy dance for jacq
does a happy dance too
typical!
Anyway, must go and will be back later. I like your cross-stitch pattern, Ata, the colours are lovely. Bye for now!
does this mean food might be delivered after all, since they'll bea able to get on top of things?
thanks! :)
nope roads still like rivers
how long before it recedes? hours, days, weeks/
they are saying they have opened the A96 and A95 but traffic is backed up and the roads are still really bad, like rivers apparently
if the rain eases up today we should be ok for travel tomorrow
despise walmart in all it's forms...would rather starv than shop at them
it's much cheaper than shopping here
but no road bed wash-outs? just needs to drain?
i don't think we could manage if we didn't have them
there might be on some of the B roads, but as it stands just now they are just under water
probably not...they kill the competition
kate where i live we have very limited choice for clothes and household wares, asda are 70% cheaper than the local shops
that's something then...praying for sunshine to dry the rain...and some wind to dry it up0
asda is wonderful
and when there are no longer any local shops? understand the need for strict budget, just have a major hate on them and everything they stand for...you DON'T want me on that soap box
what about tesco?
tesco are here too, both are about 20 miles from here
it's a huge supermarket chain with a pretty much UK-wide monopoly
thought we were talking about groceries, sorry...still hate them but understand that you can't spend 100 pounds to travel to buy a 40 pound frock
we are talking groceries too kate, their food is cheaper and better quality than Lidl, which is the only other choice we have co-op is too pricey
hate is such a nasty word ; )
gm all
heay kje
monopoly- that's never a good thing...there have been some terrifying exposees done here. and did you see walmart nation?
completely applicable in this case
nice incon jac
ty kje
hi all
hi kje
hi lou
lou, is that a pic of you?
yup, y?
wow lou
thank you! ;)
*blushes*
is there a list up yet?
not as far as i know
sorry, back
no list
past half way mark, ciggie break
wb kje
oh, that sounds a good plan jacq! lol!
some earky finishers posted bits in the log...probably complete if you find it all
wait for me
its ok, i can wait, just have to use my brain for a bit longer
waits for kate, tapping my ciggie on the table
LOL - yep
lighters at the ready...
sorry jacq, couldn't find my lighter
ok brb
theres always the stove trader!! lol
ttfn
found it...that's what took me so long
phantom: porpoise
mine is potato, ata
still can't get my head around going out side your own house to smoke.....
promises
it's better for the baby kate, and better for the house
anyone seen jacula?
i agree jac....she says with a ciggie in her hand! lol
not today kate
things have changed a lot in a very short time...just know no one will ever tell me i van't smoke in my own place...
when my daughter had the baby i cleaned and painted this whole house in the three days she was in hospital and the walls and ceilings were a mess
it's my choice kate, when i had my girls i had stoped smoking anyway
presently have no friends with small kids... first time i encountered this i was stunned...mother left toddler loose while she went out for cig?
good for you for not exposing the kids, jac....
if you've quit once, you can do it again ; ) sorry, just had to say it, my hippocratic oath and all - LOL
lol we take turns but if i go out for a while my daughter is always gasping when i get back or if it's a nice day they are both in the garden anyway
i agree kje
paradigm shift huge in a few short years...not even a generation
jacq will be quitting in a few days
more than a generation... first data was 1940s
well, first good data, there was data before then
talking about smoking in home
this is my second day on champix, it says to smoke normally for the first 8 to 14 days then stop i will be stopping in 6 days
okay so far with drug?...1/2 dose at first right?
good for you jac!!!! I wish you all the best!!! you CAN do it
yes kate, i feel ok, a couple of hours after taking it i feel as if the room is tilting a little
have that spacey sensation
perhaps take with food, maybe less coffee help?
what does the drug do, jac?
lol maybe kate, i do take it with breakfast
it's supposed to stop the craving
lol
brb
so no craving, just a tilted room :P LOL
welll, kinda.... it takes the edge off, that is all...
binds with some of the pleasure receptors in brain replacing the nicotine
makes sense
studies show best results when combined with several modalities... drug, nicotine patch, set quit date, social support
no nic patch gum etc with champiz...cointraindicated
any clues forthe 9?
must tend stew brb
can't use the patches, and the gum is vile
no idea lou
fair enough
not a clue lou i was ignoring the 9 and hoping it would go away
you won't need them, jac - you have doen this before, and can do it again...
lol jac
the suns out!!!!!
pr9
thanks ata
thats all i know though!
bbiab
found the 9!
yayyy
yayyy
means forward displacement or an organ.especially an eyeball.
how normal lol
pr9/66 pr4/6 + foot digits but with an extra constanant in the middle
brb
ty lou
ty lou
and take the first 3 letters off for a p6
got that already ata, but thanks
how close are you to Cromarty, jacq?
not that close ata
i love on the moray coast
me too .... actually all around your area. did lots of fieldwork around Elgin during my PhD
some great finds in legin
elgin too lol
i took my girls all around here whern they were younger to pre roman sites and quarries etc
butting in.....
ata, what is hobbit?
how fun! some aren't around any more, a few of the bigger ones were quarried out by professional fossil collectors
now that's a philosophical question!
breed, ata... don't get all brainy on me
LOL :P working cocker spaniel
btw, that was not a command to coppulate
one of the quarry owners in elgin years and years and years ago had the foresight to ofer his men a reward cash for every fossil they found so they were vigilant
really? looks brawny for a cocker... the ones I see around here are rather prissy
american cockers are wimps compared to english ones :P adn working cockers are a lot more stocky and sturdy than the "show" form
and people like Hugh Miller were around to guard some of the quarrries. So much must have been lost though
nods, i took the girls fossil hunting but we never removed anything from the field ever
thanks ata
i always told them that things get lost and misplaced and there would be no record of the find ever
lol I've got a box of random spines and bones and stuff from Scotland. but it's all been photographed and I know it's just bits and bobs and of no importance apart from fun memories
my girls wouldn't have kept anything safe it ould have been hauled out over and over again
palaeontologists tend to just find that they end up with piles of rock lying around the place. it's just one of those things!
hello again, back
nods
hi lyn!
Good morning/day to all. I love bones! I found most all of a deer skeleton earlier this summer on the river bank while kayaking. My friend impatiently waited for me to collect bones.
Just saw the Cpt Jack dancing w. Cpt Jack episode Ata.
awwwwwwwww
hi scrabs!
lol some people just don't get it, i have all sorts from coral my brothers boat dredged up off rockal to a small silver mustard spoon i found in a field and roman coins too
Roman coins? Wow!
<psst> jacq run and hide, scrabs is here
hi scrabs
hi Scrabs - what did you do with it? (eww by the way)
Yep, Silly Scrabbler is here!
Lyn, the skeleton was intact--no soft tissue etc--that would be gross and very smelly. I like to look at bones, identify them, put them together, let kids borrow them to show at school.
hi lynn
my girls' teachers used to love it at project time we had something for everything
i also have a huge lump of amber that was dredged out of the sea off rockal too
Neat stuff, jacq!
very, i am a hoarder
Me too
me too jacq, I have stuff from diving, stuff from palaeo work, fish stuff, stuff from beaches ...
we have jars with seashells in them from family holidays and walks on the beach
counting air miles again...wants to see jazq's treasure horde...loves old things esp. dinos
wishes to see ata's horde as well
i used to work for an amateur geologist his house was amazing, rock samples everywhere, i loved it
I have *boxes* of the darn things lol. Actually, 3 big plastic containers with lots of dividers in so I can put difefrent shells in different compartments
*giggling* I discovered 2 rocks in my car last night when searching for something else.
in scotland? who was that?
ted kellock
sadly he passed away a few months ago
I discovered 2 fossil sea urchins and some razor shells in mine LOL
he donated everything, samples slides and records to an orkney museum
good morning babblers!
nice ata
Hi Wolvie
hi Wolvie
morning wolvie
hmmm that rings a vague bell. we were introduced to a lot of the amateur geologists in the area while we were up there for a while
he was an older gentleman, with a shock of white hair, he was a member of the gs
did you check fb? not sure if i got you clicked right or not
he was still travelling up tilla couple of years ago and still hill walking etc
I was just hoping you woouldn't say Stan Wood. He's a nightmare - the guy that "accidentally" digs up quarries
lol, no, Ted was a wonderful man, so lively and considerate, he only ever took small samples unless there was plenty around and he always kept meticulour records, i did his database for him
Stan completely dug out the whole of Tynet Burn, which was the type locality for a lot of the old red sandstone fishes. idiot man!
stupid fool
and i don't use that word often to describe a person
the police in elgin are clearing the area around the river lossie and are having to ask morotists and pedestrians not to hang about because the river is about to burst it's banks
i hope this rain stays off
he really is. thank goodness he didn't get his hands on our site, Scat Craig
theya re speaking about evacuating 400+ homes
Oh, my, Jacq! Lots of rain?
eeeeeep!
ooh- so do I - flooding is awful
isn't the weather incredible? so many evacuated from CA because of fire, Scotland because of water ...
this year has been a wild one, that's for sure
That's doubled in the time you have been here jacq !!
I just checked a map of River Lossie so I know where it is
i know
brb, anyone want a cup of tea?
oh yes please ata
Yes please!
me three
Drinking coffee and must soon shower

At 80/128 I must get ready for a kayaking adventure. We are going to the Hemlock Lake, where I acquired my case of poison ivy dermatitis. I shall be very cautious today!

Hi Hazel!
It is hard to be nice to these people when they are so dumb. Hi Haz
Hello! I'm still waiting to speak to EvaN, I haven't been on at the same time as her since she got engaged.
I agree. It is hard to be nice to people when they are dumb, eh Haz? :)
Hello Haz
Hello Uniquity! How are you?
I didnt know that about Evan. What lovely news. Cant wait to "see" her/
Hi Uni!
Keep your sunglasses at the ready, Annie, she's sporting a rock!
I didn't mean Haz. opps.
Woohoo!
I've seen the ring on her flickr page, just haven't had the chance to congratulate her.
Oh wow, hooray for Eva!
We are going to have a Babble Wedding.
Uni as you know attending LEctures is half the learning you have to attend the tutorials. Well some people don't attend then fail and then complain
I'm dusting off my hat as we speak.
Oh how lovely. I need to see EvaN son
soon
BR-- I tried to open your profile and both times I tried, my Internet explorer closed down and told me that there is a virus on the site I was trying to go to. I don't know if it is just my computer or if there is a problem.

Today you would expect a 'Rama lama Ding Dong' Pong
Uhgh!

Nice Bubba
Bubba, i just clicked on BR`s profile & it loaded ok for me.
I swear, some women have children just for the fun of naming them. I think these women should adopt cats instead.
Mine did it twice, don't know why, I had never gotten that messsage befroe
no problem here, I too have BR's profile
good morning
I know one girl who called her child 'Destiny' because she was listening to Destiny's child as she was trying to pick names. Can you imagine what she might have come up with?
morning jane
BR? Are you going viral on us?
No don't adopt kittys how about goldfish
hello jane
Or - open a day care. That would be useful.
She's lucky she's not named "God is Great Beer is Good"
No lists today?
bubba perhaps you should run a virus scan. BR's page opened ok for me
does anyone have an icon clue for me?
e + red light means: ****

Good advice. Husband once told me, after tasting my pathetic attempts at pancakes 'Stick to what you're good at.' He's never had pancakes inflicted on him since.
Ah - got the po6!!!

there is a list in babanon, BR posted it
is that a clue, atalante?
thanks jacq
no! LOL :)
Hi Ata and lou
(thinking who would invent and manufacture a hamster net anyway, i mean, they're pretty slow . . .)
costa ricans :P
Would it be for safety conscious owners who fear hamster injury if they fall off their wheels?
hello haz!
monkeys
Maybe hamster safety helmets..
Hello TO! How are you?
cause i live up north my first power supply for the computer was 6 sled dogs on a treadmill hooked up to a alternator from a 66 pontiac,puter ran on 6 frozen salmon a day.salmon net;)
a bit under the weather but glad to be home nonetheless
Cross blame the monkeys on the slow net there
hi TO, sorry your not feeling well
And hamsters like falling out of their wheels at high speeds that they have created
Did you enjoy the time away or was it a bit of an ordeal?
Gentle hugs for TO
there was an ill hamster at the vets this morning. very sad looking!
awww poor Hammy
Had it fallen off its wheel?
it was a mixed bag but ended as an ordeal. admin stuff and being ill
Hope you feel better soon - and that the whole work thing is more satisfying than it has been.
but on the bright side there are tons of fab looking men around there
Well, always look on the bright side!
(OMG, i just remembered one of the sickest jokes i ever heard) (now trying to forget the hamster chat)
i just found out that every wed night there are sailing races. sounds interesting
I don't know, but it was obviously still feeling quite frisky. jasper looked rather frazzled. jasper = vet
afternoon all..
hi rolin!
Some of the 'furries' can be difficult to deal with.
gwen..did that joke involve duct tape?
Do you sail, TO? Is the life on the ocean wave the life for you?
rolin, yes, indeed it did. you want to tell it, you take the blame 8-)
well i took a short cruise and loved it, but have never sailed. sailing shcools galore there
ooooh no.... this is not the forum..lol
somebody tell it! please!!!!!
and the ski club has a sailing component
<<< needs to laugh
okay i will tell the joke. why did the biker wrap his hamster in duct tape?
it's raining here again hard
It would kind of knock your street cred if you ended up being sick over the side of the boat. Hard to look alluring when you're green.
. . .
PHone..
true dat. pardon the slang.
. . .
of course if geeks are one's cup of tea it is geek heaven
at work
*putting my hands over my eyes*

hi fm, apparently i have a fairy babble godmother....very mysterious...hhhmmmmm
Not to be attempted lightly, FM.
the first 137 words, not so hard, then trouble
I which case I think I will give it a miss.
should be points for lipo . . . a word i hear with more and greater frequency
brb kettle has boiled
why on earth does Gaddafi want Switzerland abolished?
but BR has posted a list in his profile..bless him
cuz he's a pinhead?
I didn't know that he did. When did this emerge, Ata?
well yes LOL. but it's so random!
a few hours ago, I think. just watching sky news now
it gets him airtime
smiles
FM give it a go..... I have 179 words so far
ack, just realized i'm running late, gotta fly POINK
bye Gwern
he is brain-damaged I think...
bye gwen
I think he dyes his hair, if his beard's anything to go by. Earth shattering revelation , I know, but could the hair dye be seeping into his brain?
is he in the us? i will be home in NJ this weekend I will pay him a visit...though NJ was trying hard to keep him out
Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi is set to ask the United Nations to 'abolish' Switzerland and share the land among its neighbouring countries. The eccentric dictator has filed a motion with the U.N. saying the Alpine state should be wiped off the map and split among France, Italy and Germany.
*thinking that may explain her recent lack of babble expertise*
LOL
oh for heavens sake!
good grief
it's a distraction, something else is going to come up or out soon
*waves to Nono*
already up in arms over lockerbie bomber's release here
You have to laugh, it's so bizarre, picking on the most neutral country ever and wanting it torn apart.
Relations between Switzerland and Libya crumbled after Gaddafi's son Hannibal, 33, and his pregnant wife were arrested in Geneva a year ago accused of assaulting a hotel chamber maid. Two days after the arrest the couple were freed on bail after the complaint against them was dropped, but Gaddafi still hit back by withdrawing five billion dollars from Swiss banks, closing Swiss businesses and arresting Swiss nationals in Libya.
but who will make the choclate if they do???
Gaddafi is set to present his bizarre plan when Libya takes over the year-long presidency of the U.N. general Assembly on September 15.
Never mind the chocolates, think of poor Roger Federer, no homeland.
not to mention the emmenthaler?
there are many reasons he was released, scottish law allows release when a prisoner is terminally ill, we did not want him dying in our prison and becoming a martyr for every suicidal bomber with a pasport, his conviction was unsafe at best
who would want Gaddafi's blood money anyway..
he should deposit it in IRan
Is he the new hitler?
trying to be phae
no..just another middle eastern wacko
lybia gets to be chair of the u.n for a year???!!!
but folks have a hard time seeing it that way. we have a lot of the breaved families in this area and they are so upset. jacq, don't you think if those fanatics wanted vengeancve they would attack you just because he WAs in your prison?
was just wondering how that happened crossy.
yeah, whose dumbass idea was that!
refresh for new wesley pic! and i'm off to lunch!
can I st4 typing in askew now?
yes, ru. calm down.
( uh ata.. we elected George bush)
do we give him fission materials right away or just let him buy the stuff from n korea?
wait are you sh****** me
lol ruru
isn't that where that bomber is waiting to die..in Lybia?
I understand the US position, TO, but it seems to be okay to push for the release of so-called political prisoners in Northern Ireland, but different when it's someone accused of killing US citizens.
yes, phae
it wasn't as cut and dried as that TO and the families will always have my sympathy, but if the convictionwas unsafe, and witnesses were paid, then i would want to know why if it was my family member
haz: not condemning just discussing. personally i am 100% in agreement with you on that point!
I know, TO.
is that the way it was jacq? the conviction was bought?
Well, at least we didn't release squeaky fromme
Libya made the mistake of going against advice and having a hero's welcome for Magrahi. That was bound to feel like a slap in the face, whether he's guilty or not.
governments do starnge things sometimes without consideration of the consequences but the law was an ass then and now, if you google it you will see there were discrepancies in the trial and the evidence and the statements
i agree haz, totally
one witness was paid 2 million pounds or dollars (can't remember which) to testify
I get the feeling more and more that governments get elected and then just do what they please, sometimes without regard for the feelings of the people who elected them.
not trying to upset you or anyone else TO
they are all corrupt haz, it's all about jobs for the boys still
oh you have no idea, and in this area got tremendous coverage. and given next friday's date things are preying on people's minds. jacq i am NOT upset at you at all
clue for ra6/30 please
ra6/30 - least cooked
Must be off to the post office/post box to send off the work I have done for a client today. Happy Babbling all.
personally after looking at the info that is openlyy available online about the trial and the witnesses etc i am glad he has bee released because now they might hold an enquiry and let us all know the truth
Bye FM!
ty hax
oh - bye, fm. good to see you
brb everyone
You're welcome, Matches.
hax?
and you TO Bye Haz and see you on Monday Ata. Bye all.
sorry meant haz
bye dear!

Hi Shiv! Yes Kate is correct. Tis indeed an auspicious day.
apparently so
Thanks, Bugsaw and BabbleRabble!
happy day soodle
hi crossy, shiv

Oh Cross. thank you. And you Wolvie. I share my big day with Byonce and Keanu Reeves. (???)

Happy Birthday Soodle. I hope it is a lovely day for you.

Many happy returns, Soodlebum!
I would've sent you an ecard, if I knew how!
not even a real pro...noticed last night that my stats tiles had re-appeared after being gone for a day or two.(my 2 week trial had ended)dropped dr god a line to let him know that there was some sort of glitch....he wrote back saying that a secret admirer had turned me pro :-) .....so i seem to have a fairy babble godmother or godfather :o)
sa 5/12 please?
hallmark.com has lots of cards...lots free too
Oh how nice Kate, wonder who it was?

nice to know BR - hope I can remember that later. ;-)
sa + not starboard, but ***t
The former owner of one of my brother's houses suffered from that, due to a thyroid condition.
no idea. will write back to dr. god when i am not so tired and see if he'll tell me...need to know who to thank and repay

No Kate, or I wouldn't have asked!
HOw nice to be sponsored like that Kate. Now you can post icons
how did you know i was pro/
well, there is another sa 5/12 before that one BR - clue please anyone?
hi Bugs
I was just going to say, you can post an avatar or your own pic and write up a profile, Kate.
More people have been sponsored in here than most realize. Also, if the person asked to remain anonymous, Dr G won't identify him/her.
We can see you are, because you have the little pawn icon beside your name now.
speaking from experience, Uni darling? :P
more work....and i thought you and crossy liked me....you just want me slaving over a hot computer day and night and day!!!
hi uni

oops. Sorry BR

It denotes gender, Kate. You haven't specified yours, so it's neutral grey.
How nice of my to point that out ....... as I crawl into the penalty box.
You just click the "My Account" link, Kate. In there, you will see where to upload your pic and fill in your info.

You are all so kind. SOme people get quite upset by that
life is too short to get het up about that bugs. :-)
When there's no list? That was very helpful, Bugsaw!
hi all!
hey science
You will notice that even snarky comments in the past have not kept me from playing and enjoying it.

How are you sciencegeek? Did you contact a doctor yet?
BabbleRabble has a list for us
Hiya sciencegeek! No, no list.
Yes Bugs, I am going to the GI person today at 4 pm. Cannot imagine the traffic - ugh

ty soodles
I can guess the next line of that, Soodlebum! LOL
Eleven predictions derived from the recalibrational theory of anger were tested. This theory proposes that anger is produced by a neurocognitive program engineered by natural selection to use bargaining tactics to resolve conflicts of interest in favor of the angry individual.
Or at least one word of it!
DEET?
i have the limeric to end all limerics here id love for a school teacher to c+p it though..lol

what crossy i have not been paying attention?
BabbleRabble - I have my own theories on anger! None of them pretty!!!!
here it comes..
the russian ruler + device that bends light: pr***
Kate the ending is one for a belief
It filled Gallileo with mirth To watch his two stones fall to Earth "Their rates are the same," He gladly proclaimed, "And quite independent of girth!" Then Newton declared in due course His own law of Gravity's force, "It goes, I declare, As the inverted square Of the distance from object to source." Next Einstein revealed his equation Which succeeds to describe gravitation As spacetime that's curved And it's this that will serve As the planets' unique motivation. But the end of the story's not written, By a new way of thinking we're smitten. We twist and we turn Attempting to learn The Superstring Theory of Witten.
history of gravity lol
nice i just copied it
done
ty for the list BR
may help the kids remember it
luv that crossy, copying now...
Oh, my daughter, the scientist-to-be is gonna love that one, crossy. Brilliant!

Thanks for sharing, crosshair.
afternoon babblers!
Hiya EvaNadine.
Too bad. I was thinking about putting in orders for other tricky concepts.
crossy, i saved your limerick for posterity on fb
I was thoroughly fed up of scrabbling And decided to try some Babbling, But the grid I neglected, As my mind was distracted. And spent all of my evenings just gabbling.

women, and scots... oh - beat me
really eva? what's the occasion?
bye bugs
appears the cichlid's behavior is adaptive to anticipate social challenges and reacting to their clues with an anticipatory androgen response to adjust agonistic motivation to an imminent social challenge.
vacation. it will be taking us to OBX. :)
very cool - weather is breaking here from the awfully humid to just nice - still beachy, but not so sweaty
that's quite incredible, but cichlids can be very antagonistic

hi, crossy
howdy dc
Hello again. I am back for another little while. Congrats to the finishers
welcome, bugsaw
Hello seain. I tried your lick to the great sounding pie but it doesn't work.
link, sorry
i have 28 left and the pr's are worse than the a's
lick must have been Freudian
what is the a fromt the first column besides at4/5?
LOL
LOL Bugs
checking it again, bugsaw
similar just change seconf vowel
there are 2 at4/5's
ty jacq
water comes from a t** in the kitchen
link fixed, bugsaw, thank you for pointing that out
thanks, I will try again
am i losing my mind or is there an error on the list..am/4/5
oa5 in the desert are a good thing
lickety sometimes has an extra word. Lickety uses a newer version of ENABLE than does Babble, so finds more words, and on occasion one does not get removed
ywo am4/5's crossy
compare the word counts
there are 2 am4/5's
not lickety
cause unless we are doing 3 letter words,thats impossible
two, sorry crossy
There is no lickety
i found them both, so not impossible @ all. They're quite similar
mm interesting
am4/5 am sounds like the french for friend
mm crossy needs his meds..
the other sounds like an asian leader
there we go;)
p's finally finished
kisses the ground
ga 5/14 please

all from Latin root meaning soul :)
em4 - ruler. hint for other E word, pls?
e + red sign
as6.33 what bees do must come from there too
ty, ch, i miss that one a lot.

im doing babble,stuble upon,have br,s list up ,am downloading 20 songs from limewire and searching for a mivie:)
movie even
and I am scratching my ear
LOL
expect the cpu chip to implode any time now
lol too funny
I keep telling myself that I will no do grids without the list, and yet time after time I punish myself and do them
we all do the same
and what is funny sometimes I dont even go to the list till the last 20 or so
and if you had the list you would go there at half way
this game is all about choices ... how much do you want to challenge yourself?
I go through 3 times, using the letter list under the grid sometimes at 3 different sessions, then if I am stuck I go to the list
its amazing how many words you can find by just walking away for a little bit and then coming back
well those berries are not goign to finish picking themselves I had best go pick them I will be back later I am sure to help clue
be well, meliae
thank you again for all the help BR

I think it may be, inge. gray, wet, cool... *sigh* I worked so hard for the warm sunny months expecting to have some time this month to play in the garden... but so far no go.
thanks inge
np
the superlative form always ends in est
Oh, I see. The list on Babble had it in the wrong place. Thank you!!! ~_^
I retreivd my list from the garbage and noted tht BR had the wa- words in correct order
BR often does...
is he taking the day off?
no, he has been babbling all day long. Maybe he is collecting new energy
probably needed to refresh his eyeballs...
here was here at 6:29pm :-)
hey zoom! how soggy are you today?
we had a sunny day today..YAY!!..although windy..so not bad thanks
glad you had sun. you deserved it!
meant to say BR was here at 6:29 pm..lol
thanks Stid...how has your day been?
*grin* figured that was what you meant.
I just got NBT
i have 07 more words to find.
my day has been peculiar, but not horrible. Thanks for asking. Feeling very unhappy about the way the house is a) getting more and more disorganized while I am not so ambulatory and b) not getting any better -- I hate not knowing what is where, and seeing useable materials get damaged because they are outside
what does NBT stand for?
go zoom go!
No Blank Tiles
How many words today?
OOH
208
Thank you.
yw
go godthaab go!
I am bamming along at 128
go indeed! LOL
I am up to 99
keep going Stid.
Lots of words off the beaten path.
now down to 88...
wow, you are going very fast Stid..i have 03 left.
got both the K words...
go zoom go!
Go stid, go. Mach schnell!
I'm maching as schnell as ich can!
Zoom, zoom, zoom
LOL, Stid
Thanks Inge..but i must confess i have been on this grid for what seems a very long time..lol
It took me all morning. I had fireworks as 12:23
YAY inge (late better than never)
*at*
congrats to you then inge..good going.
BR did not publish his list till I had found about 120 words at the seat of my brow
*sweat of my brow" or *Seat of my pants* but not both
yeah i think i was around the same number before i realised there was no lickety, so glad BR got a list up for us to use.
listening to a jack benny show... aired feb 15, 1953. so far very funny
You are too young to have been around then
yes, I am... but this is so funny. Good jokes, funny sketches
hello all
stidmama, I made chicken piccata tonight
hey peri! how are you?
hi peri
mmmmm. dinner...
and fireworks for me.
Hello, peri
I am doing ok, walked about 4 miles this am, very proud of myself
siss, boom, bah for zoom
yay for zooz
YAY zoom!
good for you peri!
how are you stid, read that you were not very ambulatory, what is going on?
that stupid hip, peri. It's just really hurting this week, and the orthopedist pretty much gave up on me. Next week I will pull it together and send him a letter asking if I can just have a permanent disability parking permit.
it's not something that operating on will help apparently, but he isn't offering an opinion.
why do't you find another doctor?
I am somewhat miffed, to be honest.
another opinion would be nice
what is wrong with your hip again, I forget
I can get a second opinion, but the doc for that is more than an hour away. next week I will try to sort it all out.
sorry you are hurting stid
the problem is that I feel it sliding out of the socket prior to pain setting in, but the orthopedist insists that can't be happening -- but also doesn't offer a different hypothesis.
hey, stid, I also have troulble walking. My legs simply have to energy. After abut 20 steps I need to rest. An keeping up my Y pool exercises, which helps. My crdiologist added Enzyme Q10 to my pill collection. It seems to help a little
thanks peri. me too. on the other hand... when it finally stops hurting I will feel so good that probably nothing will see hard any more.
oh gee, inge. that is hard for someone as active as you!
glad you have something that helps even a little...
bing crosby was born in 1914 according to this old radio show... LOL
well, I had to give up my usheirng job (36 years!), they have me a ticket for free admission to the DSO any time
7 left
Jack just said," you CAN'T be 39" and bing replied, "what's the matter with that, you got it patented or something?"
sorry, 26 years not 36
go peri go
good for them, inge, but sorry you had to leave off the ushering
now bing is singing... *sigh* I was born in the wrong generation
Peri, go, go , go
down to 75 and feeling stuck. listless at the moment.
I am going as fast as I can in this stupid grid
good job stid
go peri go! ((puts yummy choclit at finish line))

Bravo Peri
YAY peri!!!! *offers cool washcloth for headache*

((gentle hugs))
here is lucky to visit!
whoooo hoooo PERI!! night night, hope the headache goes away soon
he says he is bored to tears.
he decided to NOT try to type his own greetings though, and has flopped down near the door.
I think that's so I can't escape...
no long week end for me. more than likely will have to work sunday and monday.
scratches for lucky behind the ears and on the rump by his tail
well I suppose being employed is good, but would be nice to have a break I know.
oooh. he LIKES that!
i knows my dogs!! lol yea, a break would be nice, but i have today and tomorrow off, so no real complaints
that's okay then, as long as you get SOME time this weekend.
now if i wanted to rest and recreate, it wouldn't be on a week end when hubby is home! he makes me work! lol
very smart!
actually, he makes me feel guilty about not doing more housework.
I can't afford to feel guilty about things not getting done. Not right now. In a week or two maybe.
no, you have an excuse...well several excuses, school, kids, animals, all worthy excuses.
down to 60!

Oops on me.
I have a list in my profile thanks to BabbleRabble JBV.
oh, thanks, Min! and thanks to BR!
thanks, again, Min, and I love your icon photo!
Thanks JBV. Was hoping to see more icon clues since there is is no list and the grid is huge. Maybe later on
Good evening all. Just checking in before going to bed. How is everyone?
oh golly, sorry minver, i didnt even know what day it was...
hi scrabbs!
A good running day, Red?
Hi Scrabbler! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
hi, scrabs
Hi JBV--how are you and husband?
Min, did anyone post a list?
hi scrabs
a long work day...
That's ok redturtlehead. A lot of people don't do icon clues. Should not really complain since I often do not follow the icon themes myself. But I like my icon also.
OK, I guess, scrabs, he's managing things pretty well, I don't know how - I don't know if I could be as strong as he is with the same challenges
BR had a list in his profile. Min and I have it in our profiles
Posted a list today Scrabbler thanks to BabbleRabble.
Mind over body
the will to be well
The will to live
great for him, JBV!
NBT, emerging REM sleep here in front of monitor, so off to bed. It wa s a busy day of kayaking + swimming---same planned for tomorrow!
bye everyone
gnight scrabbler, pleasant dreams
Goodbye Scrabbler! I will see you tomorrow in the log

hey nrkii!
mostly raw for the se7.48
I'm struggling with the 9. I have the word above it. Help?
anyone here know a lot about bugs?
got them! IO am missing a lot of s's on the second column. need to consult list
what do you have there?
gwen, do you have the one after it?
what kind of bugs and what do you want to do with them nkrii?
gwen, add the digits on your feet with an extra middle consonant
I got bit by a bug tonight
stage apparatus + anagram of foot digits= pr9
and it hurt like the dickens
what kind of bug?
did you see your assailant?
Got it! Thanks.
it was IN MY BRA!!!
a tiny, black/brown? squiggly bug
about 1/8 to 1/4 inch long
I've had that experience minus the biting.
try peroxide on it, nrkii
it doesn't hurt any more but I just wonder what the little stinker was
be sure to keep clean and dry and put a thin layer of antibacterial ointment.
do you have benadryl gel?
in your bra! girl! yes, benedryl!
no pain or itching now, but it was bad in the moment... to the point that I had to go running inside my brother's house to go to the bathroom and look to see what the heck was going on LOL
failing that, do yo have po6/24?
where did it go? did you smash it?
by your description, it could be any number of bugs
I was trying to have a normal conversation with my family...
I smashed it, with some effort... had to grind it between my fingers
ewww
PLEASE! i just got off phone and know i am am insane to even THINK i can have convo with them
could have been an earwig, they love warm dark places
ok off to finish, if anyone comes up with the first po word i will look for a clue
o gross LB.
normally I can have a great conversation with my brother, but when a little bug gets in my bra and bites me... I get distracted for some reason
no, much much smaller than an earwig
Hugs TO
po 5/24 - ends with the belief/theory suffix
to need a clue for the po????
ty
po + letter before S + pr*** , like crystals make rainbows
any other ideas for me and the little critter?
and thanks jbv for that clue!
was it long like an earwig or round like a spider?
Other than gross NR not a clue
btw i am two clues today
yuck! I can't bear to think about earwigs
it was about 1/8 to 1/4 inch long and very thin
nrkii, there are some great photo bases on the net just search for insects of XXXX and insert your state for the x's///
no legs or wings that i could see
it was kind of squirmy
bedtime for me....
gn

Okay, now I want a piece of my homemade, fresh blueberry (no refined sugar), spelt crust pie! with ice cream!
congrats, sciencegeek!
Well, Kate - if the person wished to remain anonymous, you are not 'beholden' to them . . . they don't want to be repaid, they simply want you to enjoy your new pro account! :)
congrats, scigeek

Thanks - sending!
Okay any clues before I indulge in the pie?
are u offering dessert, geek?
gortmold hoping babblers don't think less of her for having to google japanese goldfish...
Erm, Cynthia - as your name appears there. It won't let me send another invite, because you haven't acted on the one already sent, yet . . .
not at all gort
Arrgh! You're making me want pie! Or at least ice cream! Quit!!
i made a homemade blueberry pie - fresh - of course, all are invited
So, you would have to go to my page, and click the link to invite me to connect . . .

It may very well be in your spam folder, Kate - even though it's a Yahoo! invite. Yahoo's good for that! :P
thanks, everyone
Did you get my page link, Kate?
okay the pie is warm and i am weak. need clues??
Thanks for the assistance tonight. Can I help anyone before I go?

You do not need to give clues sciencegeek if you are going to post words in the chog. Penalty Box for you!
I don't think there's any hope for me, with 66 left. :/

Goodbye gwenski! I will see you tomorrow in the chat

I see now. I was just excited!
night night, geek
I am eating in the box....see you all tomorrow (HUGS)
Don't give is a thought, geek ... most did not even notice
:) It's OK - the PB is full of goodies, I hear. ;)
Bye sciencegeek! I will see you tomorrow in the chat
be well, geek
Enjoy your pie, sciencegeek! ;)
gort you crack me up, i said ORNAMENTAL not Oriental! lol, although i do interchange the words often.
well somebody else said japanese! but always happy to crack you up
Oh,I think I read that as oriental too lbdawger! Oops
being of japanese descent, i often tell folks i'm a little ornamenal lady
Both apply in that case though, lbdawger - if you're talking about the goldfish? ;)
lol, cool lbd
so true, JC
*ornamental even
HAHAHA, well you could be ornamental I suppose, lbdawger - when you're all dressed up? ;)
does ornamenal mean you clean toilets in a fancy way?
arm candy for my hubs lol (in my dreams)
rofl, gort!
jc is it in "my yahoo"? should i have an app. added to use? there's nothing in my inbox, unless it got accidentally deleted...
No, Kate - it would be in your Yahoo! Mail.
all right, it's been a pleasure babbling with you, but if i'm not to be excommunicated from my family, i have to set to and whip up a coffee cream torte and raspberry cheesecake, and do it without whingeing
Well, Kate, I can't send another - not until the one I sent already has been acted upon. :/ So, the only way to connect there now, is for you to go to my profile page, and click the link to invite me to connect . . . http://profiles.yahoo.com/julian_in_ke nt

thanks for your company and esp for your help lbd, u champ, cheerio
And the URL won't fit on one line . . . grrr. :/
I'll shorten it . . .
nothing worse than a whingeing chef
yeah, me too, i've already snacked on half the ingredients
i actually have to go shopping to top up supplies!
hi ak, as + not cold or hot
be well, gort

Here you are, Kate . . .
see you tomorrow, gort
http://tinyurl.com/mfwemu
ty dawg i NEVER would have found that
Goodbye gortmold! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
the other is aa4, ak
not cold or hot? is indifferent akin to frigid?
yee ha!
indifferent doesn't care about frigid and frigid is frozen
what about the P in the last column?
okay, time for me to head out. see you all tomorrow. and thanks again BR for the list and the chat!
Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
be well, lbd
okay, jc, found it and clicked..thanks for all your effort...thought i had finally got yahoo straightened out, now it's revamped and i have to undertake major reconstruction of site all over...sigh
Oh, good - I've just been sending you an e-mail, Kate! :P
when i went there your request was front and center...no hunting required. easy peasy. ;-)
pt 6 please
you are very kind to a poor computer-illiterate babbler...
pt 6/21 takes away the first 3 letters of the pr 9/66
Yes, I see we're connected now - just don't mind that horrible old picture of me, HAHAHA! If you read back into all the past comments my friends have posted, you'll see why that pic and status message are there.
gn dawg
You're hardly computer-illiterate, or you wouldn't be Babbling . . . ;)
ty min i will go a huntin"
will crawl around when i have a few minutes, jc. i liked it though...very outre
That was taken many years ago, Kate - when I was half the age I am now! :P
after cut and paste, i'm pretty much lost...this has been a learning experience to say the least. ;-)
You will find several other Babblers you may know in my connections there, Kate . . .
You can invite them to connect with you, also. :)
i have a really great pic of me in facebook, can';t tell it's me , but fab...not photogenic at all
Well, post it in your Yahoo! profile too, then? ;)
I'm sure you're probably more photogenic than you think, Kate . . .
first, i must fix facebook and , now yahoo, before any more invitations. it will be impossible to keep up otherwise.
evening all
I see, Kate . . .
Pinikula!!! :)
Hello, Pini
hi jc ;)
Hello Pinikula!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
<-- looking for 3 for NBT
heya BR :)
hiya min :)
not fishing for compliments jc...friend took aboiut 80 pics just to get 4 fit for public viewing...really haven't had good pic since i was 8...but oh, was i adorable then...
I have NBT . . . but 66 left. :/
I won't complete this grid, now. :/
K, far right P, and bottom center A
still have 96 to go here
I'm sure you're probably much too hard on yourself, Kate! :/
nbt- vry good jc...it goes much faster if you take some time with list. i went from 60 to 12 in about 20 mins....(a record for me)
There isn't a list today though - or is there, now?
babble says i need 5...my hand-written list says 3....have some sleuthing to do, again
not lickety
list in babanon , dawg, min, and br's profiles though
h9i pini
well, that was a bumpy ride...had to reboot...
what you own is your pr**erty + one who plays catch, **s*** a ball back and forth
ooooh, thanks for those BR!!!
J.C.,I have a list in my profile thanks to BabbleRabble
[ :-@
Thank you for that clue, BR! :)
the pt 6 loses the beginning of the pr 9
Yes, Minveryork - I'm struggling with it, but fear I'm too tired to finish. :/
* grin *
Thank you for posting the list though, to you and BR, and whoever else has! :)
(going to list now...brb)
does anyone have a teeny hint for the re 6/30 please
sorry ra 6/30
ra 6 -- is the most undercooked
ty br...been babble-blind for a while...in the home stretch now
(still filling in list)
unfortunate about the running back
Are you talking about Blunt, BR?
Thank you again, BR!
yes
It didn't help much that the Bronco made a comment and *touched* him on the shoulder...but that didn't warrant his response!
a couple of minutes cost him a season
They've already announced his penalty?
yep, he is done for the year
And, with all due respect, I think that's a fair outcome...
Your thoughts, BR?
I wonder if he will get another year of eligibility
He apologized ...
I would think his punishment covers a year of play...
I can understand that...but it still shouldn't have happened...
...while I know tempers can rise, it was still out of line...he should have just walked away and into the locker room.
But, then again, I'm basing my opinions only on what I saw last night; missed what's occurred since
I was surprised -- tom osborne protected good athletes who broke the law repeatedly at Nebraska ... this is rather refreshing that a program takes misconduct seriously
I'm glad, too, BR...incidents like that should never occur...after all, football is "just a game"...like I have "just a job" but would never think of blind punching my boss for saying something rude...I'd be put up on assault charges!
...and probably lose the job, too!
brb
... back
must be a very busy time for you, Pini?
well, classes start in 3 weeks
I cannot tell if Koda is bored or mesmerized

HARD WON ONES ARE THE SWEETEST, JUSTIE, CONGRATULATIONS
the definition of the word I needed is: docile, easy to manage ...I've seen the word before, never knew what it meant, and promptly forgot it!
thx kate

cloaked...as it were...
she is sleeping off her choc martoonis
hello friends! do we have lickety now?
No, I dozed off...LOL! I am really tired ...had many errands today...
I don't think so, NVM. hope he and his family are okay.

No Lickety, and I'm stuck on some of the 'ra' words. :/
Hiya, {{{{Stid}}}}}}
okie dokie, no big deal.
hey JC
Hi, stidmama . . .

hi stiddie. wb jc
hi stiddy! babrab has graciously posted the list in his profile!
hi jc
Hi TK, Stid, Jai, JC
BR has a list
yes, I know he has Just -- and ordinarily would use it. but right now I have a slow connection anyway, so I think I'll just dink along.
hi dr
okay sure or ask for clues...:)
My boy's back! VAMOS, RAFA!!!
down to 55 listless, which is pretty good for me!
thanks Just!
go Rafa go!!!!!! (vaya vaya vaya)
excellent!
yayayay rafa
*big grin*
yeah une!
Someone inferred back there that my choclit martooni was why I was dozing...Only had a bitty one and I told you the truth...I am tired from my busy day!
go stiddie...the list really helps the last 50-60 go fast...
ta5/18- first one please
just teasing a little jaia
busy day drinking choclit martinis? *innocent mama look*
Une- My hubby just said- he looked better with th ehair
(i am teasing A LOT)
do you use vodka or gin for your martoonis jaia?
poor, put upon jai....we know you're tired...and if you want a big martooni, why, you just go right ahead...you've had a hard week..;-))
Ok, jm...I usually never have a drink but my daughter wanted me to try her choclit martoonis, so I did!
innocent mama swhould be word searching...
yep, prefer the longer hair, sleeveless shirts, etc. -- oh, well :-)
daughter Knut?
mama is searching... mama is NOT finding. mama is tired and hungry.
No, not Knut..Kimberly!
but he was playing very well
I drink like a fish *chugs bourbon*
NO! no fish! *gasp* hides the rum
poor "mama"
what would mama like?
oh! *waves at Kimberly* hi there!
ta5/18 was my last word needed for fireworks DR...the definintion is docile, easy to manage
mama would like to have abundant energy, a family that spontaneously takes care of things like dishes, laundry and sweeping floors when mama is tired and in pain.
mama would like a vacation.
ok thanks---looking
mama would like a CABANA BOY that looks like rafa *sigh&*
Yes, my baby is 22 and legal to make choclit martoonis for her Mom
mama gets cheep choclits and a whiny dog...
i wish i could afford to drink like a fish...i'm wine-less (she whined)
Here in Quebec (not sure about the rest of Canada) bourbon is not available
your problem is having rum -- no self respecting fish would drink rum
pour quois pas??? *shocked mama look*
my son started making me margaritas at 16 -- I felt he should have an occupation

stidmama, put definition in reverse dictionary it's #1
I am going to ask a dumb question
risky in this crowd
I have been on babble for a while now and.... where is the reverse dictionary? I always just have google open
There is no such thing as a "dumb"/"stupid" question.
THANKS MIN!
At least that is what my teachers always said to me.
yw
in this case, google can work as a reverse dictionary.
I am now down to a mere (and youthful 40) and going to call it a sufficient gain. Not staying up to flip as the medicine is starting to work.
Either one will do.I got both the sites in my favorites
thanks for the help all, I managed to make my goals for today! *happy mama look* and I will be back tomorrow. ((hugs))
