Can someone please tell me with the RE 8 am i looking up or down to start it

12:46 am

Some people sadly, have so little in their lives to interest them or make them feel 'important' enough I guess, that they feel a need to try and create negativity . . . I'll never understand that. :/ *Sigh.* Can't let it bother you - just be thankful you're not in that sad situation. ;)

The Country Parson. "...Who is the honest man? He that doth still and strongly good pursue, to God, his neighbor, and himself most true. ...

1:01 am

they were a lot more worldly pav...if you were c of e that is..even the priests got around...often the 2nd son went to military as officer, the third became man of god and etc..sometimes teacher...because of preogeniture, they had to mostly make their own way even if from wealthy families

1:02 am

well I am the third child of 6

1:02 am

what a memory you have pav..could never memorize..absoluter agony for me!

1:04 am

country parson it is then...you said poor so i thought yu to be in a shire that is not very wealthy...some ofthose men of god were very well-to-doi indeed!

I always wanted to learn a new language! and babling is cathartic

So does anyone think that at 418pm one should go get organised for the day?

1:19 am

1:19 am

OH and strangest thing ever now beer served in plastic cups

I think you guys call them Dixie cups. But beer and spirits and all drinks in that is just freeking wrong

1:25 am

Lickety is present, indeed!

1:26 am

I'm using plastic upcs meself...but it's mo4ly because my dw quit about 3 yrs ago...

1:27 am

Fortunately not a babblet.

1:27 am

Well about 10 years ago the bar manager used to throw the glasses across the room and if they shattered into shower glass style clumps he bought them

Must stop chatting - never going to remember to move cursor.

Sadly going out to the city just isn't worth the hassle these days

3:15 am

Hello, flosey and Andree, I'm not long arrived.

3:16 am

hi haz

3:16 am

Hello Haz now at least there are 3 of us

3:16 am

is it 1am for you flosey

3:16 am

yes Andree

3:16 am

3 hours is not enough sleep!

3:17 am

it certainly is not, i hope after a little babble you get back to sleep

3:17 am

will babble until I get drowsy

3:20 am

so haz what do you think of george's new girlfriend

3:21 am

oh, who is George's new girlfriend?

3:21 am

I'm in my new diplomatic phase, remember. She's very beautiful and I hope she treats him well.

3:22 am

I'll be left to pick up the pieces if she's bad to him.

3:22 am

nothing diplomatic about me, she is probably a tart!

3:23 am

We need to work on your inner Henry Kissinger, Andree.

3:23 am

i don't recall her name flosey, some italian model

3:23 am

lol

3:23 am

or some italian floosey

3:23 am

George? Boy George?

3:24 am

hi babble, george clooney, haz and he are secretly engaged

3:24 am

Is it the same one who was at the Venice Film Festival?

3:24 am

thats the one

3:24 am

Hello BR

3:24 am

hello

3:25 am

No, Andree, the secret engagement is poor Scrabbler's fantasy. I merely provide George with a room under the stairs to give him peace and quiet away from females with stalking issues.

3:26 am

Good morning, Babble Rabble.

3:36 am

clue for the 8 plz

3:36 am

I don't have it yet, MM.

It's a relief to get that 8.

3:41 am

3:41 am

3:41 am

you must be flosey, nearly ready to go back to bed

3:42 am

hope so Andree

3:42 am

haven't seen west for ages, is she okay

3:42 am

haven't seen West either, and haven't heard anything

3:42 am

No, nor have I, Andree. I haven't heard anything.

3:43 am

ty lynxxx

3:44 am

seems strange

3:44 am

Was she going on holiday? There's talk of a cruise at the back of my mind, but I could be wrong.

3:45 am

We need something like 'Neighbourhood watch' to keep a record of who's going on holiday etc.

3:46 am

a cruise, without us

3:46 am

Husband and I were on holiday in Yorkshire. We drove for miles into the moors. At the end of a deserted road we came upon a house. It had a 'Neighbourhood watch' sticker in the window.

3:47 am

lol

3:49 am

West wasn't playing everyday like she used too. I remember seeing her a few weeks ago - maybe she's having a break as lots do. Babble seems to be seasonal for some

3:50 am

sometimes i go days but never longer

3:50 am

and my ranking must be in the toilet

3:50 am

You're probably right, lynxxx.

3:51 am

let's just say I get my monies worth

3:51 am

But we still talk to you, Andree.

3:51 am

Morning folks .. can anyone clue the no8 ;-)

3:52 am

thats the nice part of babble, one can come after a break and they haven't been forgotten

3:52 am

Hi Norma - there is no no8, nor the fa7 (I think someone said) a couple of extras on Lickety someone said

3:52 am

hi norma

3:52 am

Hello Norma. It may be one of the extra words on Lickety, only one 8 indicated on babble word stats and it's an re8.

3:53 am

There are probably names we don't know because of the different time zones, but by and large you do get to know and remember a large number of babblers, or at least those who chat.

3:53 am

I got the fa7 ... but that explains why my little fingers are down to stumps monkeying the no8 tyty

3:54 am

something odd, Word Stats says there's 1 8 letter word

3:54 am

painful looking for a word that isn't there

3:55 am

flosey, there's a discrepancy between Lickety's list and the puzzle list.

3:56 am

Yes flosey ... the stats are usually correct

3:57 am

ah, thanks Haz and Norma

3:59 am

4:37 am

bye lynxxx

is there an fa7,44?

4:48 am

good morning all, how many today please

198

4:49 am

only one fa7

4:49 am

i've been trying fadeins, which morewords says exists, but babble won't accept it

okay, lickety shows there is a fa7,44 but my f tile is colored in and I don't have that one...just curious

4:51 am

lickety has an no8 that doesn't exist

thanks for the heads up

4:51 am

no worries

4:52 am

r u in PNG, for?

we are missionaries

4:52 am

you're not Gale Christoffel's kid by any chance?

nope

4:53 am

just a thought

4:53 am

i know a few missionaries to PNG, including my itinerant parents

yeah, lots of missionaries over here

4:56 am

yeah, a workmate of mine is an ex-png missionary - he says it's because there are a gazillion language groups

I think there are over 860!

4:57 am

so how many have you learned? :)

we just got here so I am still working on pidgin!

4:58 am

do you happen to know where you can get the Jesus film in Pidgin? (Parents are looking)

I have no idea - have they looked online?

4:59 am

yes, and you'd think that since i work for the people who invented and distribute the film, i would be able to get my mitts on one

5:00 am

we found solomon island pidgin, but not png pidgin

wow that's exciting. Maybe that should be your next project. :)

5:01 am

there's a thought!

nice chatting with you gort - gotta go read to my kids before bed!

5:03 am

nighty night

6:14 am

good morning all

6:15 am

hi everyone, hi wolvie, herin and all

6:16 am

hey annie

6:19 am

Good morning/day to all.

6:20 am

Morning, Scrabber

6:20 am

morning scrabs!

6:20 am

Annie, I saw a DS volunteer at the children's hospital yesterday--adorable with the kids.

HI. Sorry my net had a mental

6:21 am

Scrabbs, Yes, Bobby is great with kids and animals. They really are drawn to him esp. dogs.

6:21 am

Well, I myself am mental, herin

6:22 am

Scrabbs, What was the volunteer doing? Did the children respond to him, her?

6:22 am

Talking to kids in the hallway--making kids laugh.

6:23 am

We are all mental in our own way

6:23 am

true. ;-)

6:23 am

Scrabbs, That is great. BTW, How are the kids doing that I pray for?

awww Scrabbler. Bless you

6:25 am

Timmy is undergoing a bone marrow transplant in an effort to beat his cancer. Sabrina + Ben are doing well. Mary's kids (the oldest 2, ages 5 and almost 9) are struggling a bit more--more realization that mary is really gone. I too am sad as we approach 1 yr since her death. I miss her so much.

6:27 am

Will say a special prayer for Timmy. So very sad about your friend Mary. She is missed by so many.

6:28 am

Mary would be so proud of her kids. The little one, 23 mo, is talking so well, very advanced, and she pooped on the potty Tuesday!

6:28 am

I am attending a bridal shower tomorrow. My niece is getting married in November.

6:29 am

Locally or a trip for you?

6:30 am

Annie, I will be going to visit my sister in northern NJ in a month. Will you join us for a Babble mtg at Doren's?

6:30 am

No, it is in North Brunswick, NJ. I have directions and my niece's phone if I get lost. And I say if hopefully. Not good with local streets in NJ. Wish me luck.

6:31 am

i know theres no...fa7/44...i dont think theres a ..no8/40 either as both are greyed

6:31 am

Go to Google Maps or MapQuest so that you have the steps printed out.

hi jandy

7:33 am

Hi Wolvie!

7:34 am

Is the total 200 for today

7:34 am

198

7:35 am

hey BR

7:41 am

Hello, peeples

7:41 am

Hi BR... how's things?

7:41 am

hi akk

7:42 am

er hi all

7:42 am

fat fingers

7:42 am

hi jmc

7:43 am

i hope the rest of you isn't too thin then... it would look really odd! At least my fat fingers are in keeping...

7:44 am

tsk tsk pb there jandy

7:44 am

i am a little chubby -- I say not quite Rubenesque

7:45 am

:-)

7:45 am

rats... pb... looking, looking. I like to describe myself as lush!

7:45 am

lol

7:46 am

as long as you are not a lush!

7:46 am

And look at all the yummy stuff in the pb.. that's not going to help!

7:46 am

no - not yet anyway. lol

7:47 am

Well, i might be a lush who is lush... i think the calories i drink may be a contributing factor... but the ones i chew are defintely the primary culprits.

7:47 am

;-)

7:47 am

my big calories are the booze myself

7:47 am

but I am a happy drunk

7:48 am

this is a good thing. :-)

7:48 am

being happy I mean

7:48 am

er but not at 9 a.m.! lol

7:48 am

Oh, me too. Extra happy. My token effort is Diet Tonic in the vodka... there's more calories in Tonic than Coke!

7:48 am

:-)

7:49 am

ich I can't stand the taste of diet drinks

7:50 am

Right, down to 29 without the list, so back to lurking so I can concentrate! Night all!!

7:50 am

wolvie is quiet and happy it appears!

7:50 am

bye jandy - :-)

7:50 am

bye jandy

7:50 am

you're not putting enough vodka in it then, jmc! that hides the taste beautifully...

7:50 am

i am doing the grid today jmc - for a change. ;-)

7:51 am

lol jandy I drink bourbon straight --- problem solved

7:51 am

well don't let me disturb you

7:52 am

I would hate to interfere with such dedication

7:52 am

True, jmc, but we get some very hot weather... so the quinine in the tonic fights off malaria, and the extra liquid fights off dehydration..

7:52 am

Really, i'm only drinking for my health's sake!

7:52 am

no no, lol - some days I yak, some days I don't. I'm still grinning over annies hairy babbler

7:53 am

brb

7:58 am

7:58 am

7:59 am

hello all

8:07 am

hi TO

8:07 am

alrighty :) you been at work all night too, jam?

8:08 am

no, but haven't knocked the cobwebs of sleep out of my brain yet

8:08 am

you got sleep?! I have jealousy

8:08 am

aww. one letter away from yersinia

8:09 am

well I am too old to do those all nighters and I am still re4ing up from the one I did last week! lol

8:10 am

heh. well, it wasn't an intentional/planned sort of thing. i'd have RATHER been sleeping

8:10 am

I am sure -- but did you get lots of work done?

8:11 am

uhm. well, i suppose so. porcupine quills out of three dogs, and the one i was worried about dying is still alive.

8:11 am

then it sounds well worth the lack of sleep jes

8:12 am

poor dogs

8:12 am

I just started back at work after a month sabbatical so its odd

8:12 am

they did it to themselves :P can't have too much sympathy for dogs that repeatedly get quilled. you'd think they'd learn. the other one though, he's had a damn rough night

8:13 am

these same dogs got quilled before?

8:13 am

at least one of them has, not sure about the other 2

8:13 am

I really didn't think there were dogs that stupid!

8:14 am

well maybe the one who was quilled before was trying to protect the others from his experience

8:14 am

oh, you have no idea. we've got one boxer that we've de-quilled at least 6 times. and she doesn't get just a few either. buries her whole face in and takes a big bite

8:14 am

says susy sunshine

8:14 am

yet another reason for me to own a cat

8:15 am

Hello, Ata.

9:06 am

its you Judi who has a cat on subq fluids, isn't it?

9:07 am

No fluids, Ata. He's on pills for thyroid and congestive heart failure. And, he escaped yesterday while the carpenter and painters were working in the living room.

9:08 am

monster! :)

9:08 am

hmmm must have been another person, maybe CiociaJudy. Some Judi-ish, I'm sure!

9:08 am

Complete monster! I estimate he got out around 11:00 a.m. We didn't find him until after 6:00 p.m. He appeared from the corn field across the street.

9:09 am

glad he came home, judi!

9:09 am

Obviously, I beat him. (Yeah, right.)

9:10 am

I dont get it, de+ mr. rather doesnt work

9:12 am

Sandie, what electricity provides only replace the first vowel

9:12 am

9:12 am

9:13 am

9:14 am

urf, yes, I feel for you really! you must have wanted to strangle him, after going omg you're safe!!

9:14 am

haha

9:14 am

FYI, the Fa7/44 is the phantom. The Fa7/40 is organic.

9:15 am

Exactly!

9:17 am

Awww. Don't pout, Inge. Stay and clue!

9:18 am

I almost went back to grey head status ...

9:24 am

lol

9:24 am

oh dear .....

9:25 am

ruru couldn't find re6/18 the other day. Clue after clue confused him, cluers were getting ever more inventive.

9:25 am

ty for the de, My comp stuck and then ran like water

could anyone help me with the an6/30 plz? Just CANNOT get it.

9:25 am

Wes is still sick and I was getting my front windshield fixed.

9:25 am

that has happened to me more than once though haz..

9:25 am

an6 - if it began with en, you'd be full of pep and vim.

9:26 am

easy sandie

9:26 am

now I have to find re6/18 so I can be amused

9:26 am

Don't have the an6 yet.

9:26 am

I know, ruru, but we're kind and we still talk to you.

9:26 am

I dont have it yet

9:26 am

but will work on it now

9:26 am

*** I am so blessed ***

AHA! Thanks so much for that one!!! Never heard of that word.

9:26 am

oh! yes, I do have it. I couldn't see it in the list

9:26 am

Or an plus cognito **** sum, but replace the final vowel with the sometimes one.

9:27 am

You're welcome, Sandie.

9:28 am

I think haz just needs to pay for a few vacations to some re6/18's for me so that I can practice that word for my future career in babble...

9:29 am

come to Margate!

9:29 am

sounds great.. haz?

9:29 am

Find your ancestors in Ireland!

9:29 am

Mine are in greece and England

9:30 am

I'm a bit suspicious of the idea that I should pay. I think it should come from a central fund paid for by babbler's subscriptions.

9:30 am

Oh yeah from all the zillions of bucks Dr. God has pulled in..lol

9:31 am

Everybody's from Ireland. We've got Barack O'Bama with relations down south and Muhammed Ali has just been back to his forefather's homestead.

9:31 am

we need some rich babblers

9:31 am

I could use some semi-rich babblers even..

9:32 am

what is the other d for the last column?

9:32 am

hehehe. you guys could help make me less broke, if not rich :)

9:32 am

well, ruru, we do have the best babblers and they enrich our lives

9:32 am

petfinder.com is running a contest for non-profits. the shelter/rescue that gets the most votes in each state gets $1000 grant.

9:32 am

do you think that Ireland is holding Barack O'bama's birth certificate in hiding?

9:32 am

Oooh. A Babble bail-out! I'm in!

9:33 am

dunno if that'd make me the rich babbler of your dreams, but it wouldn't hurt my feelings to win :)

9:33 am

de6 and di5 come from that tile.

9:33 am

i'll vote for you!

9:33 am

No, birth certificates only started to be issued from the 1860s onwards, Obama's forebearers left Ireland before that.

On the next page, there's a banner on top that says "Help your favorite shelter win a prize" click that, and then in the search box, look for Wayward Creatures Relief Agency in Washington State

9:34 am

porsche that is

9:34 am

you can vote daily (hint, hint!) :)

9:35 am

Prosche sounded like the poor man's Russian version.

9:35 am

will do! I do the clicky every day there anyway

9:35 am

sounds like a russian stew to me

9:36 am

you rock, ata! :)

9:36 am

I'm in, how many times a day can you vote

9:36 am

and anybody that's not already doin' like Ata, you can also click to give food to 3rd world hungry, teach kids to read, buy a tree in the rainforest... other good stuff

9:37 am

you're supposed to only vote once a day, but since it's cookie dependent, you can vote from different browsers and computers.

9:38 am

I'll get best friend to twitter it too, she has huuuuge friends list in OR / WA, they'd be interesting in voting I'm sure

9:38 am

I am just planning to make a nice year-end donation to you jess..like before or more.

9:38 am

Aren't we all cookie dependent?

9:38 am

excellent! you're wonderful ata!

9:38 am

I will be cookie dependent this afternoon..

9:39 am

aww, that's cuz you're amazing, ruru :)

9:39 am

Don't make her any smugger than she needs to be.

9:39 am

what state and city are you in

9:39 am

and way generous to boot!

9:39 am

9:41 am

9:41 am

jes, state and sity pls

9:42 am

Was it a relief for you, ruru?

9:42 am

Chewelah, Washington

9:43 am

File this in under "DUH". Some woman is in our lobby here at the police department. She is trying to argue why it should be okay for her to shoot squirrels from her back porch (she lives in a subdivision).

9:43 am

in a sense haz...

9:43 am

Yes, indeed.

9:44 am

er. Tell her that she can shoot squirrels, but only if she's okay with the neighbors tossing mustard gas back at her?

9:44 am

*** I need to arm those squirrels with little guns to shoot back .. judi ***

9:44 am

It's not Evanonut, is it, Judi?

9:44 am

It only shows stevens county and wayward creatures

9:44 am

which one are you?

9:44 am

I should note her address and throw some peanuts in her garden. *insert evil laugh here*

9:44 am

wayward creatures is me, sue :)

9:45 am

sounds like Nutty to me

9:45 am

I would take her guns away judi.. next is little kids for her..

9:46 am

I made a difference today, yahoo

9:46 am

thanks sue!

9:46 am

now give me the di please

9:47 am

slang for money

9:47 am

di what?

9:47 am

morning - I sympathise with her! We have dozens and they have decimated every tomato in my garden & my neighbors. CHEWED thru a bird feeder and dumped a couple of others. They are rapacious and filty!

9:47 am

and then plural

9:47 am

LOL! The Sgt. just asked her if she has a permit for her gun. Long pause and then she says, "Well, I'm not saying I have a gun."

9:47 am

hahahahahaha!

9:47 am

squirrels are really just rats with nice coats on...

9:47 am

They plant the acorns all over. Pots, flower beds...you get the idea

9:48 am

i have not actually seen any squirrels at my new place, just chipmunks. the owl must be doing a good job on them.

9:48 am

They got into the house once and since this is a rental, help was slow and our attic is now unusable!

9:48 am

ty, but that came from the d in the second to last column

9:49 am

well, you weren't specific on which di you wanted, so i guessed ;)

9:49 am

And most of ours have skinny tails. Seems to be local to us.

9:49 am

lol

9:49 am

coffee please

9:49 am

The two d words from that tile are de6 (de plus Mr Quayles) and di5, archaic verb form of to do.

9:50 am

your killing me haz

9:50 am

got the de though

9:50 am

but no un-mice :(

9:51 am

I had a raccoon this summer

9:51 am

It's not that hard - past tense of do and add two letters abbreviating a saint.

9:52 am

I called animal control and told them my dog ran it up a tree and to come get it,you know what they said. "If it ran up the tree, its healthy and they wont come get it". I had to trap it and bring then they picked it up.

9:52 am

Down to 25. Time to go file some crap. BBL.

9:52 am

ty haz

9:53 am

You're welcome.

9:53 am

Hobbit does that to our neighbour's cat

9:53 am

ty - that took a while cause all I could think of was potatoe! :D

9:59 am

I'd better get back to my chores. Maybe see you later. Bye for now!

9:59 am

bye dear!

10:00 am

bye, haz!

10:00 am

have a lovely day :)

10:02 am

you are all stupid

10:03 am

probably true, ursh, but i'm blaming it on you.

10:03 am

why

10:04 am

because i can

10:04 am

hahaha

10:08 am

I guess I am going to have to list with this one.. I am stuck...

10:12 am

poooor ruru

10:20 am

how many words today?

10:20 am

198

10:29 am

aww, ruru has to be like the rest of us today! heh. i think i've only ever done 1 grid without lickety...

10:31 am

1 is better than a lot of people!

10:31 am

I'm about 50/50.. most of the time

10:32 am

would someone clue the en 6 for me?

10:32 am

I would if I had it

10:32 am

en + underground part of a plant

10:33 am

oh damn.. I never see that one.. thank you BR

10:33 am

Jes, on a scale of bad to omg!dead, how bad is a feline BUN of 115?

10:35 am

hello Fellow Babblers. Ata, a *human* BUN of 115 means dialysis; don't know what it is for a cat though

10:35 am

that is not that bad ata.. we've had higher numbers.. but it is renal weakness

10:36 am

her normal BUNs were about 30 a year or so ago, now she's hovering between 80 and 115, poor baby, with creatinine of 9

10:37 am

poor cat! :-(

10:37 am

that is too bad ata.. is she really old?

10:38 am

6. She's *6*

10:38 am

vet thinks it's a congenital issue, she was a street cat that appeared one day and got adopted in

10:38 am

well she has had a better life with you..

10:39 am

absolutely! it's just so sad, she's such a darling unassuming little kit

10:39 am

is she on a special diet? My Tommy had to be on a reanl diet before I had to put him down (for other reasons though. He was a rumpy Manx and had renal and neuro problems

10:40 am

she could have eaten things on the street that affected her kidneys too and damaged them

10:41 am

we've done the fluids thing with all our cats

10:41 am

she's on Hill's k/d at the moment, and seems to like that, so that's good. and she's gaining weight on it, which is really necessary for her. when we took her to the vet a few months ago, she was skeletal. under 6lb. now she's over 7lb

10:42 am

too true, ruru. We'll never know. we tried giving her fluids twice a week instead of every other day and she got rushed to the vet yesterday with vomiting and not drinking etc. she's back on every other day.

10:42 am

that's what we had Tommy on. How is her fliud status? It's good she's gaining weight

10:43 am

she seemed to be doing really well until yesterday, bright eyed, bushy tailed, bouncing around for the first time in a year or so. then yesterday she just went downhill again. It could have been something she ate of course, something manky from under the cooker or something, but it was just awful how quickly she went from ok to hunched and miserable

10:45 am

(sorry for wibbling about it. just had a bit of a scare over the last few hours with her!)

10:47 am

Sorry, ata, wasn't ignoring...was outta the room. BUN is less of a good prognostic indicator than Creat. a creat of 9 is pretty serious, at the high end of what is usually treatable. typically, i tell people that at that level, we can treat aggressively and usually see some response. much higher than that, and even with IV fluids and hospitalization we don't usually gain much.

10:48 am

you know, being dehydrated will raise a BUN and possibly affect the Creat too

10:48 am

*sigh* poor cats. I've been amazed at how many people have had cats with kidney problems since Jinx started to be ill

10:49 am

chronic renal failure is really really common in cats, ata

10:49 am

followed closely by hyperthyroidism

10:50 am

TY, Jes. I thought something like that. We're trying to think of her on borrowed time and just enjoy her - treatment appears to be working, sort of. Enough, but not brilliantly. but as long as she's chasing bread ties and fighting her sisters ...

10:51 am

I really didn't know that! I guess I've been lucky in never having had one die that way

10:51 am

yep. usually not reversible or curable, but you can manage it, and as long as she's comfortable, that's what matters.

10:53 am

yep. poor babe. we're learning a lot about giving fluids and anti-nausea jabs and all sorts of things!

10:53 am

fun, isn't it? just put my kidney-cat down last weekend. :(

10:54 am

oh jes, I'm sorry!

10:54 am

and sorry for bringing up kidney stuff at just the wrong time! *hugs hugs hugs*

10:55 am

eh. knew it was coming; actually surprised she made it as long as she did. she was in such crappy shape when I got her, and never did eat enough to get over 5 pounds.

10:56 am

poor thing :(

10:57 am

(((((JES)))))

10:57 am

hello all.

10:58 am

but she got a couple months of sleeping on the bed before she went, which I have to think is an improvement over wasting away outside an abandoned house, right?

10:58 am

hi stiddy! go vote for Jes at the Animal REscue Site!

10:58 am

morning, stid! how goes?

10:58 am

definitely better for the cat, jes. you're a SAINT.

10:59 am

hardly. i'm not nearly pious enough for that!

10:59 am

goes... okay enough. FINALLY had the nerve to write a letter I had put off for a month. Hit the SEND button just a few minutes ago.

10:59 am

Glad to have it off my plate.

10:59 am

good on ya. hope the response is favorable :)

10:59 am

which animal rescue site, jes?

11:00 am

how you atalante? dried out a bit post-deluges?

11:00 am

animalrescuesite.com

11:00 am

brb post-voting

11:01 am

click the purple donate button, then on the next page search for Wayward Creatures in Washington :)

11:01 am

thanks!

11:03 am

done. hope you get loads of $$$ and exposure.

11:03 am

just about, it's even sunny here now!

11:05 am

LOVE sun! we had a sunny afternoon yesterday and it's lovely here now, but we are "promised" rain overnight and tomorrow.

11:06 am

meant to be *hot* in astoria today

11:07 am

probably will be -- and probably windy, with this system moving onshore.

11:07 am

unless it's coming from up jill's way... brb

11:08 am

sorry, just saw posts with cats and kidney problems

11:08 am

me too, stid. :) started off better this time than the last time they ran this contest... i didn't start until half way through that one. This time I'm already 13th in the state :)

11:08 am

I find it happens most in males that have been neutered

11:08 am

yep, coming from the NW.

11:09 am

go go jes!

11:09 am

I lost my baby to it and since make sure I feed the males the food make for urinary track care

11:09 am

good for you! shall I tweet about you?

11:09 am

that would be great! :)

11:11 am

new icon if you refresh

11:11 am

okay, tweet sent. It will also reach my facebook list.

11:11 am

you rock, stid

11:11 am

this is Dixie, someone left her at a barn

11:12 am

awwwwwww

11:12 am

she is sweet! what a great face.

11:12 am

I've never heard of that connection before, sue. And jes, I *think* I just voted for you also

11:12 am

she let my cat suckle off her when it was a kitten

11:12 am

you think? did it pop up a picture and ask you what animal it is?

11:12 am

she is so sweet and follows the postman around to get cookies

11:13 am

good puppy!

11:13 am

I got a rabbit :)

11:13 am

yes Nef, it is the ph balance in the food

11:14 am

There's not really much connection between chronic renal failure and being male. I think you're think of urethral obstructions.

11:14 am

jes, I did get a pop-up and had to write it in. So that means I did vote? Good!

11:14 am

I got a sheep. must have heard me say I am allergic yesterday. *sigh*

11:14 am

yep :)

11:15 am

that's to make sure you're not an auto-repeat program to stuff the ballot box :)

11:15 am

no blank tiles.

11:15 am

aww, you're allergic to sheep? but they're so CUTE

11:16 am

I got a frog. With his tongu out

11:16 am

i got lions this morning

Sheep are cute at a distance; up close it's a different story.

11:17 am

I am allergic to ALL ruminants -- at least for ingestion (but I am not lactose intolerant). I haven't been around any live ones in so long that I don't know if that is safe. Just know that even incidental exposure in food is dangerous.

11:17 am

lions! ooo!

11:17 am

I like frogs. but not to eat.

11:17 am

I am finding these "g's" to be difficult today... is it just me??

11:17 am

and I like lions... but definitely NOT up close (there's one that occasionally hunts near our home)

11:17 am

no good, stid. that sucks. probably better for your heart though, since you can't eat the high-fat cow

11:18 am

the Gs are a bit hard

11:18 am

anyone first mo 5/ pls?

11:18 am

yeah, frogs are not very good to eat. pretty bland.

11:18 am

yes, I console myself with feeling righteous while those around me eat triple-decker lovely ice cream scoops and I nibble on a piece of fruit. Not.

11:19 am

heheheh

11:19 am

first mo5 i have is a french word for society, sci

11:19 am

ok babblers, opinion time. i have a very hard time finding classy leather boots that i like because (1) i have extremely large calves and (2) i am extremely picky. so i have finally found a pair of wide-calf boots that i really like, but they are $200. do i wanna pay $200 for a pair of boots? i REALLY want boots, but im not sure if $200 is too much...

12:10 pm

is it your day off today, jes, or are you having a v quiet day at the surgery?!

12:10 pm

last word: so6

12:11 pm

if they are comfortable and you'll wear them forever, go for it

12:11 pm

i'm at work... that's why i'm in and out, ata. the morning is a bit slow, should pick up later. though having been here most of the night, i'm okay with slow today!

12:12 pm

gosh, not surprised! you deserve a nicer grid too

12:12 pm

working on my second mocha :)

12:13 pm

I would love to be able to drink mochas. they sound so lovely

12:13 pm

Eva, they will probably last a long time and be a good iinvestment...if yu really want them, then get them

12:13 pm

12:28 pm

whoo hoo jes!

12:29 pm

bye jes -- leave me some coffee!

12:30 pm

evening everyone

12:33 pm

hi Katie

12:36 pm

katie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

12:37 pm

Hello, sorry haven't been on much been working late and can't face thinking after it

12:37 pm

How are things?

12:38 pm

I finally have warm toes cos I have a Hobbit on my feet :)

12:38 pm

has work been horrid, or just long?

12:39 pm

It's really hard at the moment but I actually prefer it like that. I was bored a while a go and really struggelled to get up, now when I don't know which way to turn I am shattered but happy - I know I can't help it!!

12:39 pm

there's never a happy medium, is there!

12:41 pm

They completely underestimated what a programme would involve and it seems that some of us have more than others to do! I've also had an interview for a sideways move to Birmingham and have had an assessment centre for a promotion (the interview for that is a week Monday) so all told it's been a hectic week

12:42 pm

you'd like to move to Birmingham? Would it be more interesting?

12:43 pm

it would only be a 16 mile commute each way, in November my office moves to Corby and that would be a 60 mile commute so it is really attractive. If I leave work at 6.45 I could be home by 7.15, at the moment it is 8 before I am getting in

12:44 pm

work should be about the same on the interest levels but in the West Midlands rather than East, so different issues. I've worked there before (for a similar but different company) and loved it

12:45 pm

sounds great! and B;ham is MUCH nicer than Corby!

12:45 pm

I'm not holding out hopes on the promotion but thought I ought to at least make the effort!

12:46 pm

Better shopping certainly lol

12:46 pm

absolutely! you won't get if you don't ask!

12:47 pm

I do hate assessment centres though and it lasted 6 hours

12:47 pm

ick. ICK.

12:49 pm

I'm just signing up for the next module of my Coastal Zone Management Msc thing

12:49 pm

I get to learn about GIS

12:53 pm

It is such a great tool Ata. I only use it in a very minor way but we have a whole team working on it. I know council's keep so much data that way now

12:53 pm

the whole module is "environmental data analysis". I probably know a certain amount of it, having done a data analysis based phd, but I know *nothing* about GIS and am looking forward to it muchly

good evening ladies - and good luck for the promotion, or at least the Birmingham post Katie

1:04 pm

hi chrissie!

Ata, I'm intrigued by your fairies in the trees

1:07 pm

hi all, back to finish up

1:08 pm

hey ata - ty for the farmville gifts. :-)

1:08 pm

omg the creepy fairy park! we were walking along one day, in Astoria, and walked into a tiny weeny little park thing, just to see what was there. What was there were HANGING CHRISTMAS TREE DOLLS.

1:08 pm

it was very very odd

1:09 pm

eewww. I watched Destination Truth the other nite, and they were someplace with a forest of hanging dolls. Creepy

1:09 pm

supposedly left in offering to a little girl who had drowned there. ugh

oh Wolvie, that's awful

1:10 pm

it was awful. and spooky. they were just hanging there, mostly rotted.

1:11 pm

um yeah, this was kind of like that apart from the rotting. we ran away. after taking photos

1:11 pm

you took photos? Brave girl

1:12 pm

had to share the horror

1:12 pm

lol

1:13 pm

dolls are creepy, let alone hanging fairy dolls!

Ata, all your photo's are amazing (not that I've gone through them all yet - just looking now) Who's the ace photographer, you or your partner?

1:13 pm

they sure can be.

1:14 pm

me, she says modestly :P husband can't take photos to save his life most of the time!

1:15 pm

;-0

are you professional?

1:16 pm

no, but I have had photos published in National Geographic and a few other things. I can't tell you how many times I've really thought about taking the plunge and going pro

1:17 pm

wow. sounds like you could, ata.

you really should, I'm gasping aloud at so many of them

1:18 pm

wow (lurking from work - i call it lunch) ata that is sooo cool!

and chuckling at so many others

1:19 pm

ty *blush* now of course I'm going to think about it again!

1:19 pm

I have horribly silly cats and dogs to take pics of!

"demon silycat" is hilariously scarey!

You have great subjects, but most importantly an amazing eye

ok, going to stop with the Ata fan club now, lol

1:21 pm

sily is one of the prettiest cats I've ever seen - I know she's mine, but she truly is stunning - but when she yawns, she does THAT

1:21 pm

it's so so so so funny

1:21 pm

she's 4 now, and I *still* laugh every time she yawns

1:22 pm

good subjects. :-)

1:22 pm

lol, you can keep going LOL. but ty, really, I love showing people fun things and beautiful things

1:22 pm

hee!

1:25 pm

I'm actually going to start a weekly photo blog, should be fun

1:25 pm

published at fb?

1:25 pm

there will be a link there, yep

1:26 pm

cool beans. :-)

I think you should Ata. I'm only at page 21 of your photos now so going to put you in "my friends" to I can access your photies evertime its a small grid :)

1:28 pm

*grins*

1:28 pm

I have those for whengrids get hard ...

1:57 pm

1:59 pm

2:03 pm

2:04 pm

2:04 pm

2:04 pm

2:05 pm

*grin*

2:06 pm

indeed - you got me hooked on the dang thing. lol

2:07 pm

what i want to know is how to earn mo** FV dollars?

2:07 pm

Hello All :) Happy Friday!!

2:07 pm

you can't really unless you actually buy them. but ploughing does seem to earn some occasionally

2:08 pm

hi preethi

2:08 pm

so if I want a barn, I gotta pay? ;-)

2:08 pm

i have earned a teeny amount of them, but no idea how I did it, lol

2:09 pm

barns you can get with normal coins - just keep harvesting!

2:10 pm

but but, when I look at the price, it says FV 18 or something like that. LOL. Or will that change as I go up in levels?

2:10 pm

I want the groovy barn. :-)

2:11 pm

oh well .... lol ... you would be fancy!

2:11 pm

Hi Wolvie :) Hows it going?

2:11 pm

oh just finished, and yakking farmville. :-) how about you?

2:12 pm

la ti da, ata. No way - that's just my childhood coming thru. ;-)

2:12 pm

Good. Thank you. My mom finished the grid earlier. Just logged in to see who's online :)

2:12 pm

:P

2:13 pm

I can't believe folks pay real $$$ for farmville coins! rofl

2:14 pm

oh they do lol

2:14 pm

they must really be obsessed. I'll do the turtle - slow and steady

2:18 pm

I'm letting my littel lamb and chickens run free. too funny.

2:18 pm

well, I must be off - any clues before i get muddy?

2:32 pm

getting a lot done at a leisurely pace, TO. that feels nice. but I tweaked my hip a little lifting a box and that does not feel nice.

2:33 pm

2:33 pm

2:33 pm

ty jacq,

2:33 pm

2:34 pm

2:39 pm

DA 7 is the "blondest" or silliest, sue

2:39 pm

it does a little

2:39 pm

it;s the most

2:39 pm

(speaking as a former natural blonde)

2:39 pm

hi jac. sue, yes the da7 is an extention of the 6, the superlative form

phantom dyslexic fruit - dansom

2:40 pm

2:43 pm

hi tk

omg, artistic and genius!!

poor hobbit on that bridge

2:44 pm

she hates that bridge!

2:44 pm

down to 74. thinking I should list since I go back to the books in 16 minutes.

2:44 pm

all the local dogs hate that bridge

2:45 pm

probably a good idea then!

2:45 pm

LBD, the book today is "The Art of Changing the Brain" by James Zull. interesting reading. takes more time than I anticipated because I keep ... *drumroll* stopping to think about it! LOL

2:45 pm

Stidmama, just looking back at the chog. I second that comment about being delighted to see BabbleRabble. I login every day just to see his comments. BR, if your still lurking, take a bow!! Lovely one today, but its making me feel a bit guilty!

2:46 pm

hey soodle! :-D

lol stid - can you let us have a precis when you've finished

2:47 pm

Sorry. Got a bit carried away there. HI EVERYBODY :)

2:47 pm

why guilty soodle? and I was able to IM with my mother today -- they return home tomorrow (in your morning they fly out of Dublin) and they LOVED their trip "home"

2:47 pm

hi dawg, hi stiddie

2:47 pm

heya soodle

2:47 pm

jacq good evening to you

2:48 pm

heya kate

2:48 pm

how are you today?

2:48 pm

hi kate

2:48 pm

(hi john boy) *wicked mama look*

2:48 pm

hi soodle, hi stid, hi everyone!

2:48 pm

pretty good, and you? lovely day here but quite breezy

2:49 pm

Oh Stid, thats great. And they got some lovely weather while they were here. I wish them a safe trip home!

2:49 pm

soodles!...fav babble name ever ^_^

2:49 pm

I will be so glad to have Mother home again. I miss just calling her on the phone!

wooo wooo for me, just got the 8 all by myself

2:50 pm

Hiya Ata. Hi Kate. And thank you for the name compliment. I've always loved it!! :)

2:50 pm

go chrissie go!

2:50 pm

there's an 8? LOL

2:51 pm

it's the bomb...so innocuous yet slightly provocative?

2:51 pm

okay, down to 68 and listing for the next ten minutes.

2:51 pm

wtg chrissy!!

2:51 pm

stiddy, laughing at you stopping to think about what you read. good book i take it!

2:51 pm

saw a post a few minutes ago..no 8/40 and fa 7/44 are in lickety but do not exist in babble grid...slight glitch in programming?

2:53 pm

yes, good book. simple premise, but one that we don't usually consider: that the brain as a physical organ grows and changes in response to use, and that this is the fundamental basis of learning.

2:53 pm

hi soodle

2:53 pm

Hiya dawg!!

2:54 pm

the brain, an amazing muscle/organ. can't live without it, but we rarely exercise it as it should be used.

2:54 pm

I think Lickety uses a slightly different dictionary

2:55 pm

i just want to know what the no8 is. i found the fa7

2:55 pm

*doing brain pushups with letter tiles*

2:55 pm

just wanted to make sure babblers weren't looking for words in the grid that 'don't exist'

I take it you are a "mature student" stid and can vouch for the fact that you can still develop the brain as the years go on

2:56 pm

first FA 7 please?

I started my degree in my 40's. Ended with a first and definitely "bigger" brain

2:56 pm

some of the research i've re4 on alzheimers is interesting, exercising the brain, doing brain games and such to keep it from atropying

2:56 pm

today is volleymomdee's birthday

2:56 pm

good for you chrissie! (gives me hope)

2:57 pm

the first one on lickety's list is not on the grid, stid

2:57 pm

the fa7.40 is fa4.7 + superlative ending

2:57 pm

oh -- that's the FA 7 you meant! *sigh* I should pay better attention.

2:58 pm

Dawg - I believe the technical term is 'Use it or Lose it'!

2:58 pm

happy bday to dee (wherever she is)

2:58 pm

that would be the phrase, soodle

2:59 pm

Always good to get the technical term!!

2:59 pm

and frances' birthday is on tuesday...

2:59 pm

so, i need dr. g to send me a prescription for babble, so i can deduct the time i'm here for insurance...to keep my brain active

he doesn't know he feels fine now but said he was awful for about 5 days

3:19 pm

not the flu then.

3:19 pm

lbd - what I have read in the HP vein are the first of the Artemis Fowl series, and the first of the Septimus Heap books I found both to be good books for young adults

3:19 pm

I keep telling people. Dont worry about Swine Flu. Its Wine flu you have to watch out for.

3:19 pm

highly doubtful lbd

3:20 pm

did someone mention WINE?

3:20 pm

I thought all flus were the Whiiiine flu?

3:20 pm

i liked artemis fowl, septimus...i think i'll try the second book. the first one was rather convoluted to me.

3:20 pm

i have white zinfandel

I'm actually in a bad mood 'cos I'm on antibiotics but the instructions just said take regualrly with plenty water - should have added "not on an empty stomach" and I've been really ill today because of it

3:20 pm

what can I get for everyone...pick your poison..only about 150 carboys out back

3:20 pm

WHite ZOnfandel coming up...

3:20 pm

Cabernet or Chardonay, Carlee, as Soodle adjusts the white towel over her wrist...

3:21 pm

zinfandel* pardon me *hic*

3:21 pm

oh chrissie, never take antibiotics on an empty stomach

3:21 pm

passing soodle a chardonnay...

3:21 pm

sends fresh croissants to chrissie

3:21 pm

I thought that the overall story of Septimus was good, but I agree -- it took a little while to get to the resolution. It was almost as if the author was trying to emulate Robert Jordan

3:21 pm

ty carlee

3:22 pm

Fresh croissants nimbly intercepted by Soodle. Yum

3:22 pm

lol, so true, woulf.

thank you, can I have a glass of wine to wash them down please

3:22 pm

lol sends more for chrissie

3:22 pm

no problem ( cracking open a chilean malbec )

"squeezes soodle's cheeks" - spit it out

3:22 pm

So.... aside from Lickety having a couple of phantom clues, how is the grid today?

3:22 pm

3:23 pm

thank you jac, you are very kind

3:24 pm

Oh for heavens sake. Another diet out the fecking window.....

3:24 pm

on that note, I will dive in-- I have not been hunting for a couple of weeks as I have been adjusting to the new patterns

3:24 pm

croissants and camembert and coffee...mmmmm

3:24 pm

zinfandel, croissants and cheese and salmon

3:25 pm

new patterns?

3:25 pm

I'm blooming starving!! Not had a calorie all day. Come onto babble to distract myself from my self-mortification, and get an eyeful of croissants, cream cheese and wine. Its just NOT FAIR!!

se5/14 pls?

3:26 pm

soodle why haven't you eaten?

3:26 pm

why are you starving yourself, soodle?

3:27 pm

Diet! (and don't believe the self mortification bit...slight exaggeration.....!!)

3:27 pm

sings " Se*** 'cross the Mersey"

3:27 pm

se5.14, rhymes with what crossed the mercy

omg, spooky clue connections

ty lyn

3:28 pm

a diet that doesn't let you eat???????

3:28 pm

starvation diets don't work very well. look at portion control and either count carbs or fats to watch on your intake of food

lyn i love your doggie breeds

3:28 pm

yes, lbd, where I used to get up at 7 to be at work by eight and then work 10 hour days, M-F now I have to get Kristianna up at 6 so she get to school at 7 - and on MWF, I am picking her up from school at 3:30 and working from home for an hour or so to make sure my hours are maintained

my mind was on what rhymes with fortified wine drink

3:28 pm

she did say she was exaggerating!!

3:29 pm

she did? i missed that, sorry

3:29 pm

ahhh, thought you were into some crafts or something there, woulf! lol

woulf you worked 50 hours?

3:29 pm

Believe me, fellow Babblers, Soodle did not starve today. But I REALLY want something lovely, and fattening, and lucious.

woulf do you have tech knowledge i wask because defense suppply is hiring

3:30 pm

TO -- yep -- all summer I was pulling 50+ hour weeks trying to keep on top of things

3:30 pm

poor sooodle. cyber food is good, non caloric

hands soodle Galaxy chocolate

sorry, typing and stuffing one' s face obviouly does not work

3:31 pm

Yeah, Dawg, but its not very fulfilling! Grabs the Galaxy from Chrissie, and stuffs it whole, into her mouth. Yay. That should keep soodle quiet for a couple of minutes!!

3:31 pm

lbd -- I wish I had the space to work with patterns - I would love to be able to build some of the furniture that I come up with in my head, or make some of the clothes that intrigue me

i am working 4 10 hour days and i hate it

3:31 pm

what kind of tech knowledge, TO?

mechanical, electronic, materials, metallurgy

3:33 pm

TO -- I wasn't asked to work 10 hour days, it just worked out that way -- I have a tendency to get too involved in my work and forget to take lunch especially when I am helping in the warehouse -- and then I have emails to answer which always add an extra hour minimum

3:33 pm

i love drawing out furniture patterns and house plans. all day dreams.

3:34 pm

lbd - house plans are the best... although I always try to work in at least one tower for a library and a semi secret back hallway between certain rooms

3:34 pm

management...not enough hours in the day or allowed for in the budget to get it all done.

are you warehouse mgt or supply chain mgt?

3:35 pm

lol, love the tower idea. i slipped a few bolt holes in one plan and hubby thought i misjudged on the size of windows! lol

3:36 pm

6:40 pm

the family that babbles together stays together

6:42 pm

6:42 pm

no one in my family is interested which is probably just as well

6:42 pm

7:45 pm

Heya jmc

7:45 pm

grumble grumble complain

7:45 pm

Ruh roh ..

7:46 pm

the pizza guy brought me the WRONG pizza and its going to be another 45 minutes before I get my pizza!

7:46 pm

and I am hungry

7:46 pm

grumble grumble complain

7:46 pm

Major bummer :(

7:47 pm

it's not the driver's fault either -- so he will have to spend extra gas and I will have to give him another tips

7:47 pm

i hope your pizza will be free

7:48 pm

I have already been charged for it.

7:48 pm

That's why I know it isn't the drivers fault -- the credit slip was attached to the box

7:48 pm

oooh, that's not right. if they screwed up the order you shouldn't have to pay for it.

7:49 pm

if they had brought me a pizza that I liked . . . sigh

7:49 pm

manager should make it right, like a free pizza coupon on your next order or something

7:49 pm

I can't believe how upset I am by this! lol

7:50 pm

it's cuz you're hungry and disappointed

7:51 pm

and it was a rough week at teh office I was constantly dealing with broken phones and computers

7:51 pm

not the best thing for a hotline

7:51 pm

ahh, the disappointment goes further than the pizza then

7:51 pm

You get your digestive juices worked up and now you have to wait longer ..

7:52 pm

yeah I smelled the pizza smell and then opened the box. . .

Lucria Mo** was a suffragette

she was from the Quaker family which founded the apple empire

8:30 pm

8:31 pm

Thank thee kindly friend Lucretia!

8:34 pm

bankers and choclatiers...my kind of people

8:35 pm

have been roped into farmville and yoville...been baking planting and harvesting on and off all day...silly

8:35 pm

now they are just people

8:35 pm

yeah those games never appealed to me

8:35 pm

makes sense..didn't realize large presence in n/e

8:36 pm

huge time wasters...probably will delete tem soon...but in meantime have sent oiut requests...sigh

9:11 pm

no the fish is just on mine lbd for that last clue! lol

9:11 pm

good! i'm glad they are making good on their mistake

9:11 pm

weirdest pizza topping i've ever had was saurkraut

9:12 pm

af5 three phone calls and a bit of yelling

9:12 pm

there are lots of "healthy" toppings in this town -- tofu and such

9:12 pm

it shouldn't have had to take that much complaining, but at least it's resolved

9:12 pm

tofu pizza? that's a new one for me

9:13 pm

I love tofu and hate tofu pizza

9:13 pm

broccoli is big too

9:13 pm

i'm with you there, jmc. some things just don't belong on a pizza

9:13 pm

broccoli si, tofu no!

9:14 pm

i find the broccoli tends to be too big and undercooked

9:14 pm

i've had asperagus, artichokes, kiwi, m and m's, chocolate sauce and various pie fillings

9:15 pm

but not all on the same pizza

9:15 pm

a sweet pizza?

9:15 pm

lol I would hope not all on the same one!

9:15 pm

dessert pizza, good stuff!

9:15 pm

dessert pizza is a good way to go for a large group

9:16 pm

never had one but can see its charm

9:16 pm

my favorite pizza is the simplest. margharetia. fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, fresh garlic (fresh tomato doesn't hurt either)

9:16 pm

in a woodburning oven!!

9:16 pm

oooh, love a good margharetta pizza

9:16 pm

I have a vegan on my staff so now I have to order vegan pizza for the office

9:17 pm

I think a pizza without cheese is sad!

9:17 pm

a strick vegan? no cheese! yuck!

9:18 pm

yeah I get them from time to time

9:18 pm

toast with tomato sauce...gag

9:18 pm

it always causes me quick a quandry trying to cook anything not asian

9:18 pm

we have a place near here that does excellent margharita== a bit too much garlic, maybe, but I love it. once a month in the summer we get it delivered to the beach for my book club and we sit at the gazebo, and sneak wine with it (a bunch of old egghead ladies, why would anyone bother us for drinking wine, right?)

9:18 pm

but they are easier than when I have an observant Jew or Muslim

9:19 pm

too much garlic is an oxymoron

9:19 pm

this past tuesday night we sat there with candles into the evening.. it was such fun

9:19 pm

sounds nice dorens

9:19 pm

sounds like a wonderful time, Dorens

9:19 pm

indeed!

9:20 pm

I used to own a taxi, drove a couple of sweet old babes weekly to and from their "card night" - where they partook freely of homemade wines of various flavors - they were a hoot! Red hat society.

9:20 pm

i tried being part of a book club once. didn't work out, i don't like picking apart books. or hashing over stuff that isn't relevent.

9:20 pm

or 5/12?

9:21 pm

same here, dawg . . .

9:21 pm

o+ what you do with a book

9:21 pm

o + what you do with abook

9:21 pm

I tried it too lbd but nobody ever re4 the books!

9:21 pm

snap, unea

9:21 pm

:-D

9:21 pm

ty lbd and une

9:22 pm

most of us don't do that... i am actuallly in two book clubs.. the library book club (the one that meets at the beach) is such fun... really funny eclectic smart women. we're really becoming quite fond of one another

9:22 pm

the other is a bit sillier, mostly what they do is decide who should be cast in the film version of each book..

9:22 pm

how do you select the books, dorens?

9:23 pm

both sound like fun, dorens. i guess i've not found the right group.

9:23 pm

usually someone has read a book and recommends it... once in a while there is some controversy, but usually not. and i read books i wouldn't have known about otherwise, and they're usually good. some (from the silly book group) are kind of lightweight, and sometimes i dont' read them

9:24 pm

just curious . . .

9:24 pm

once they read a jodi picoult book. i thought it was dreadful, and swore i'll never read another book by her, but i have to admit it generated the most interesting conversation

9:24 pm

I want reese witherspoon to play me if merryl streep isn't available

9:24 pm

glad you like our local girl, jmc!

9:25 pm

jodi picoult...she's a recipe writer. just change the scenery and name of the characters

9:25 pm

i just finished olive kittredge... bought it cause i saw someone else who was reading it and she loved it.. it won a pulitzer, so figured it had to be good... and we really enjoyed it... recommended it to both book groups... the library group adored it! we'll see about the other group. we discuss in october

9:25 pm

I thought she was wonderful as june carter

9:25 pm

my ex is her family's hairstylist :-)

9:25 pm

the odd thing about book clubs is that I never known a book to join one

9:26 pm

she was good as june carter

9:26 pm

a woman with connections

9:26 pm

lol, br

9:26 pm

hey, BR!

9:26 pm

ahh babrab. you got me there

9:26 pm

the english patient won lots of awards too...never read so much drivel in my whole life

9:26 pm

well maybe books are like grocho

9:26 pm

groucho

9:26 pm

i liked the book, but the movie put me to sleep.

9:26 pm

oohhh, but TK, the movie was woooonderful!

9:27 pm

i hated the english patient -- and the bridges of madison county

9:27 pm

yes, groucho wouldn't want to be a member of any group that would have him, or something like that

9:27 pm

gag on bridges

9:27 pm

both the books and the movies

9:27 pm

even the movie??

9:27 pm

maybe i didn't like the movie cause i read the book, une?

9:27 pm

never saw movie...if it followed the book then it must have been a snoozefest

9:27 pm

I usually read the book before I see the movie if I can

9:28 pm

bridges... read the book when i needed something light so that was ok... but the movie? i adore meryl streep, but that was bad casting, i think, didn't like the movie

9:28 pm

hmmm, i read the book after the movie -- TK, heresy! the movie was excellent

9:28 pm

the worst translation of a book to a movie I EVER saw was the 7 Faces of Dr. Lao

9:28 pm

usually prefer book to movie, usually better story and lots more depthj/detail

9:28 pm

i've found that movies often take too much license, and it turns out not being the st5 i re4

9:28 pm

how about dr. zhivago? i adored the movie

9:28 pm

I adore meryl streep too but she could save that story

9:28 pm

then again, i was young, studying russian, and in love with julie christie

9:29 pm

Dr. Zhivago came out when I was a teenager working in our local movie theatre :-)

9:29 pm

Julie Christie . . . sigh . . .

9:29 pm

and did you love it?

9:29 pm

I kept wondering how they could be so oblivious

9:29 pm

maybe will see movie one day...only finished book cause i thought something might actually happen...kept reading...kept waiting

9:29 pm

oh, there's the answer

9:29 pm

dr Z...omg! omar shariff!

9:29 pm

love is blind

9:29 pm

several of my friends had horrendous crushes on Omar Sharif

9:29 pm

of course, dorens!! Saw it over and over and over

9:29 pm

yes, i thought so.

9:29 pm

too true dawg!

9:30 pm

ok, now lara's theme swooping thru my head!

9:30 pm

those eyes!

9:30 pm

i loved omar, but have to say i loved julie more

9:30 pm

there is a local restarant here that shows 1950s omar sharif movies on a loop

9:30 pm

julie was wonderful

9:30 pm

rats une I hadn't thought of lara's theme untilyou said it

9:30 pm

not me, une. i have piano solos playing nonstop on pandora.com right now... achingly beautiful music

9:31 pm

dorens, did you see her in "Away from Her"?

9:31 pm

oh god yes, une.. recently netflix. haunting

9:31 pm

she's still got it . . .

9:31 pm

on 5/10 pls?

9:31 pm

but she was a bit cuter back in the 60's

9:31 pm

on + place dishes on the table

9:31 pm

books that were made into good movies..jurassic park - not exactly copy of book, lots left out , but what movies!

9:31 pm

at the beginning jmc

ok, back for a bit, then off to soccer

hello everyone :))

9:32 pm

(((MRP)))

9:32 pm

9:32 pm

notorens was the word

9:33 pm

9:33 pm

9:33 pm

9:34 pm

why are you fasting mrP?

9:35 pm

en + plant foot

9:35 pm

ty lbd

9:35 pm

down to one

9:35 pm

go dorens!

fasting gets rid of the toxins from all the meds and operation crap like anesthetic... otherwise I suffer for about 18 months

9:35 pm

go dorens go!

9:35 pm

go dorens go!

9:36 pm

how many more days?

9:36 pm

wow.. good luck with that then. are you eating fruits or anything?

9:36 pm

yay dorens!

no, just water!

9:36 pm

no yay yet, but thanks tk. still a very pesky little word that doesn't want me to find it. but i will!!!

9:37 pm

gosh i hope your eating something. vitamins, some supplements? you're going to waste away to nothing, and you're already tiny!

another 4 days, but will see what my blood test says in 2 days before I commit

my potassium is dropping and I can't have it go lower than 3.5

9:38 pm

bananas

9:38 pm

oh my, i can't imagine doing that mrp.

9:38 pm

did I ask for in5/10?

9:38 pm

potatoes too

9:38 pm

and apples

9:38 pm

and tomatoes

9:38 pm

kind of like the on5 you asked for. fish, jmc

when I break my fast, I have watered down juice for the day, then banana and rice and almonds for dinner

9:39 pm

like the on5, jmc

9:39 pm

thats right! argh

yes jmc, apple juice is the first thing I have to drink, with some lemon in it

and flaxseed oil too... good detox for the liver to have that with grapefruit

9:40 pm

my husband was on what we called the no food diet -- which (because he had no kidneys) meant no potassium

9:40 pm

no salt, no cholesterol

so he was on water only?

9:41 pm

whew, i was thinking you were only drinking water, nothing else!

9:41 pm

hi all.

dawg, I am only drinking water, nothing else

9:41 pm

no he was theorectically eating but it was hard to find anything worth eating that met all of the conditions

9:41 pm

hi nb

9:41 pm

hi nb

9:42 pm

and it was the last 6 months of his life which is too long for a water fast for anyone!

9:42 pm

hi nb

9:42 pm

mr pres, i just read back to see you are on day 11 of a water only fast

9:42 pm

yikes, mrp. how are you able to keep up your blood sugar and not just faint away?

yes jasmine

9:42 pm

i am beginning one on tuesday

fantastic! how long for and do you have medical support?

9:42 pm

my last word was an6 -- kind of like what mr pres can't have much of when fasting like that, with a different vowel to begin

9:42 pm

i am interested in how you are feeling given your challenges

9:43 pm

whoo hoo dorens!

9:43 pm

whoooo hoooooo DORENS!!!

9:43 pm

*throws confetti*

9:43 pm

mrp must be superhuman!

9:43 pm

i will attempt a 30 day, and yes have an md to supervise

9:43 pm

mrp is bionic woman!

9:43 pm

yikes nb!

jasmine, if you are on facebook, go to the water fasting group

I have been posting on there daily

30 days is very long! why are you fasting jasmine?

9:44 pm

i am on face book, i will look for it

9:45 pm

many reasons comprising the physical, mental, and spiritual

my discussion is called 'my 2009 water fast'

9:45 pm

are you mr pres on facebook?

are you seeing a doctor everyday jasmine

no, I am michelle matula

lickety is also a member of the group

9:47 pm

not everyday. md gave me the go ahead for 15 days as i am in excellent overall health. will check in day 15 then go from there

I go to a doctor everyday, have urine checked and blood tests every 3 days... it is very important to have medical support throughout the fast

9:49 pm

with no health "problems" there is no way i would be allowed to visit the md everday, altho she did say to contact her at any time if i felt need....

9:49 pm

are you in retreat? or at home?

at home, and don't have any restrictions to seeing a doctor everyday.

Personally, if you can go everything 3 days, you will be safe

'every 3 days'

9:51 pm

well health care here doesn't allow for it! you may have heard of our woes in that regard

jasmine, how do you know how your potassium levels are? and your liver functions, and your sodium?? I would NOT fast without full support... your system sucks for you and 30 days is dangerous in that case

9:52 pm

truly i feel safe in the first 15 days. i have done a lot of research and have fasted before (not as long) so have confidence

9:53 pm

hi everyone

9:54 pm

hi andree

9:54 pm

mrp now i know why we havent met for lunch, lol

it is good to have fasted before, but don't let the 'fasting high' that hits you in week two fool you. Blood tests are important and urine tests daily are necessary to check for proteins and blood in urine

9:54 pm

my water is softened with potassium so i get plenty, and if i feel weakened overly much will certainly see the doc.

9:55 pm

hi andree

9:56 pm

also, i have plenty of reserves, so to speak

9:57 pm

i'm heading out. see you all tomorrow! (((mrp))) share these hugs with the family!

9:57 pm

hi andree

9:57 pm

thank you so much for the advice and concern- good luck with your last few days.

9:57 pm

bye lbd

bye dawg!

hi andree! :))

9:59 pm

OOps. I just came in to say 'Hi!' and then I saw all the fasting stuff. Foorgive me ffor not joining in. As the mother of a recovering anorexic, this is painful territory for me.

10:00 pm

thanks jasmine... good luck with yours too!

10:00 pm

hi jac

10:00 pm

ouch jac

10:00 pm

fasting vs starvation... very different jac... promise.

10:02 pm

Noy yjat different, MrP. You get a high after 4 or 5 weeks on the empty feeling and the control you have.

10:03 pm

first te 5/10 pls

10:04 pm

number+ 2 vowels jmc

10:04 pm

ty andree

10:04 pm

j,c - a band. (nott musical kind.)

10:05 pm

good evening babble friends!

10:05 pm

oo a new name for me!

10:05 pm

hi trif how is drama land?

10:05 pm

Keyboard needs cleaning again and I might also need to sober up. 4 glasses of Chardonna.

10:06 pm

no drama today at all. lovely birthday party for my mom, good food and friends, my lovely mom. happiness

10:06 pm

hi trif, i am still laughing over the wedding photos

10:06 pm

Or even chardonnnay.

10:06 pm

that's nice to hear trif

10:06 pm

which wedding photos, hon?

10:06 pm

only 4? you should be rock hard sober

10:06 pm

Trif - glad to hear you had a nice, famil and gentle day.

10:07 pm

the ones your ex wanted for his walls

10:07 pm

oh, that! whatevs. he can have them

10:07 pm

jmc - should I?

10:07 pm

lol jac just teasing a little

10:08 pm

it usually take more wine than that for me

10:08 pm

jmc - there's something you should know - after 12 years of drinking too much, our liver softens and can't take so much. That is the time to slowly cut down and then maybe stop drinking.

10:09 pm

maybe so

10:09 pm

two glasses is my limit , if i have more i need to puke

10:09 pm

Or maybe only drink with meals at weekends.

10:10 pm

jac, do you find a difference between white and red wine? I find I can drink a few glasses of red wine with no problem at all, but white wine goes right to my head - one and a half glasses, tops!

10:10 pm

jac, do you find a difference between white and red wine? I find I can drink a few glasses of red wine with no problem at all, but white wine goes right to my head - one and a half glasses, tops!

10:11 pm

i am allergic to white wine, never used to be but the last 10 years red is my drop

10:11 pm

my liver function test was a shocker!! It is now back to normal

10:11 pm

are you allergic to white grapes too?

10:12 pm

or is it the tannic acid or something that you react to?

10:13 pm

Trif - since dry white's my tipple, I could drink it endlessly but never really liked red very much. It was vinegary. However, since Beloved has been here with his small stock of merlot or cabernet sauvigignon, I've developed a taste. Doesn't get you drunk so quickly but , due to the tannin, give you a hangover next day.

10:13 pm

no trif, i believe the whites are aged differently

10:14 pm

Andree - it could (your allegry) be due to the preservatives used to make white wine.

10:14 pm

and if you cannot enjoy the benefit of a hangover, well, why even drink?

10:15 pm

probably jac

10:17 pm

due to my strange metabolism, i am sick if i drink too much i have never had a hangover

10:17 pm

i like it better when I skip the hangover myself BR

10:17 pm

White wine is preserved with isinglass - a substance obtained from the swimbladders of fish (especially Beluga sturgeon). It is a form of collagen used mainly for the clarification of wine and beer.

10:17 pm

I wonder if my vegan friends know that?

10:18 pm

I had no thought or intention of drinking earlier, but Beloed and his daughter had drinks by thieir side as we settled down to watch TV. So, I poured one glass...

10:19 pm

wow three homers BR that must have been SOME game

10:19 pm

jmc - They probably do. Well, drinkers in the 70s knew that1

10:19 pm

lots of white are agedin oak too..esp. chardonnay..you can get non oaked now for lots

10:20 pm

yeah I never knew that jac but my ignorance is vast

10:20 pm

used to drink white and rose..now reds are my fav!!!LOVE cab.sauv.

10:20 pm

Hate oaked chardonnay

10:20 pm

10:24 pm

hi andree brb..cooking, and pouring a glass

10:25 pm

Example from the UK is a fizzy wine (supposedly) type thing called 'Lambrusco'.

10:25 pm

i have a nice cab. auv. if yu like

10:25 pm

Otherwise like reds.

10:25 pm

get lambrusco in states a lot...too sweet but okay with ginger ale in tall glass with ice

10:25 pm

10:26 pm

lambrusco sounds horrible!

10:26 pm

Finally Fireworks!

10:26 pm

YAY carol!

10:27 pm

I have a mere 138 left.

10:27 pm

But. come on people, booze at £10 to £1,000 a bottle.... I know it tastes and smells great but is it really worth it if you don't really have the money?

10:28 pm

good gawd - have the tv on in the background, and they are showing an ad for a product to "pump up your hair." I wish you all could see the model in the ad - her hair is HUGE. this isn't texas people....

10:28 pm

near beer and vanilla ice cream is a summer treat

10:29 pm

As the ex-wif of a millionaire, I do know what I'm yalking about, Butm to be honest, it wassn't him that gave me my taste.

10:29 pm

jac, tell the truth - you are sarah ferguson, aren't you? :)

10:30 pm

a good quality wine is a thing of beauty..too bad i can't afford....but drinking just to get drunk? not 17 anymore

10:30 pm

But, you might not understand if I just told you i was my 'class'. Such a British thing to say.

10:31 pm

Gazela is neither sweet nor fizzy -- it's light and dry and petillant.

10:31 pm

hoping the babble fa5 would have come along and got a few words while i was gone..no luck...still 8 to go...sigh

10:31 pm

Trif - No, I'm not her nd please don't insult me like that evr again.

10:31 pm

good taste is bors not bred

10:32 pm

Kate - it is.

10:32 pm

poor jacula..when i come to dinner i'll bring us a really nice bottle or 2 and we'll empty them right out..then get some more!!

10:32 pm

well, that explains it

10:32 pm

born that is ^_^

10:33 pm

hi br how are you this fine frosty evening?

10:33 pm

oh dear! meant no offense!!! now I feel bad! I am a red head, like Ms. Sarah, so I always liked her. I am so sorry to have offended

10:34 pm

thought she had spark..not good princess material to be sure but probably someone i'd like to have as friend...such joie de vive!

10:34 pm

i think jac is joking trif and i quite like fergie too

10:34 pm

Trif - the only red that has ever offended me is mIck Hucknall.

10:34 pm

sarah palin on the hour here..what a joke!

10:34 pm

looking at the Wal-Mart site for "good taste."

10:34 pm

she always seemed like someone you could just hang out with. seems a good natured enough gal.

10:35 pm

LOL jac

10:35 pm

i may look her up on facebook!

10:35 pm

lol br

10:35 pm

later all, happy babbling

10:36 pm

10:36 pm

And as fro Fergie - she's okay. She got it wrong at times over the years but she's always done her best and I appreciate that.

10:36 pm

night andree!

10:36 pm

I'm a Rachel Maddow fan -- see msnbc.com

10:36 pm

Yes, he is, Trif.

10:37 pm

secondo is talking in her sleep again - wish I could really make out what she is saying....

10:37 pm

she does seem authentic, real..you get what you see..not simple but simply true to herself

10:37 pm

and now I shall depart and get a late supper

10:38 pm

Well, red runs in my family from andy to ginger to 'Red Setter'.

10:38 pm

my brother and i used to converse in our sleep ...mom used to come up to see what hte noise was about..he'd be talking to me from his room and i'd be answering!

10:38 pm

*sandy not andy. LOL

10:38 pm

bye jil

10:38 pm

'Night jilli.

10:39 pm

you have darker hair tho jac?

10:39 pm

I recently heard someone refer to a red head as a "fire crotch" which was a new one on me! not the most flattering nick name, but it did make me laugh. mostly in shock.

10:40 pm

Yep,. Trif - dark bruneete with auburn (once). It's now shot through with gr4/8.

10:40 pm

me too. sigh. lots of gr4.

10:41 pm

elton john and partner david furnish not allowed under ukranian law to adopt hiv pos. boy because they are too old and too gay...just on news...what deo you all think of that?

10:41 pm

i hope mine goes like katherine hepburns did - sort of streaky gr4. hers was so pretty

10:42 pm

hello all... (((trifioso))) how are you doing?

10:42 pm

found gr4 at 23, legacy of my father...a silver fox

10:42 pm

I think that is most unfortunate, kate. Think of all they could offer him! certainly due to their income level they could provide him with the best medical treatments and educational opportunities. how sad

10:42 pm

stid! hi honey

10:42 pm

*nodding in agreement with trifioso*

10:43 pm

LOVE kate hepburn..she's my hero in spo many wayus (except the whole distasteful thing with spencer tracey)

10:43 pm

I've been spending far too much time during Beatles week on SKY watching George Harrison. He's my Dad's Mum's cousin's child and e looks so much like my Dad and my cousins, but mostly my dead Dad,,,, ad so I've beeen reminiscining.

10:43 pm

10:43 pm

I think kate hepburn was wonderful.

10:44 pm

10:44 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

10:45 pm

my wasband was in connecticut once on business and got hopelessly lost and finally stopped to ask directions - at kate hepburns house, as it turned out! he only spoke with the cook, and didn't put it together until later. it was so funny!

10:45 pm

10:45 pm

Hi Min

10:47 pm

superlative version of fa 4, 7 min

10:47 pm

10:48 pm

his wife didn't die - spencer did! Kate met her afterwards, and his wife said "well, I always thought you were a rumor!" Kate was pretty shocked at that response

10:48 pm

what I cannot tolerate is women who had their first marriages end because their husbands were cheating, and then take up with someone else's husband. HOW can one woman to that to another? Especially when the know the pain it causes? disgusting

10:52 pm

Oh, the window blind I know starts with a V.Must be another kind of window blind. *still looking for word*

I wanted to torch the woman that saw a crack in my marriage and then applied a digger to it. The only reason that I did not roasther alive in her cosy cottagfe not far fromour family home was that he had cats, and I didn't want to roaast them,too.

10:57 pm
