Well, good night lurkers! Nobody else seems to be here.

2:47 am

*poof*

hi all

what`s the word...count :)

2:55 am

72

3:35 am

hi everyone

3:36 am

Hello Andree.

3:37 am

morning

3:37 am

haz haven't seen you around the last few days

3:38 am

Andree, I've been really busy so was doing the grid and not chatting.

3:38 am

And of course,the day when things ease up, we have a tiny grid!

3:39 am

i do that often when i'm busy

3:40 am

its tiny but has it teeth, i have just started

3:40 am

*flop*

3:40 am

Hello. floppy Ata. I'm crawling to a finish.

3:40 am

hi ata

3:41 am

I'm crawling to a start

3:41 am

haz did you see that i have changed puppies name

3:41 am

Yes - Hugo now - a very dignified name.

3:42 am

And tomorrow is the big day?

3:43 am

yes, miss 6 and miss 10 are coming with me to pick him up

3:43 am

what fun!

3:44 am

That'll be great, Andree, company and memories to be made for them.

3:44 am

it has worked out well its a long weekend and tue is day off so i have 4 full days with no work, once he is potty trained he will come to tha office with me

3:45 am

He'll probably learn quickly, he's bound to be smart. And with spaniel eyes he'll be quickly forgiven for any accidents.

3:45 am

jules leaves tomorrow for NZ to visit her birth family so it will give me 10 days in the house alone to bond

3:46 am

its a shame the kids won't be here but maybe for the best

3:46 am

How old will he be, Andree, and when do you do routine vaccinations in Australia?

3:46 am

probably

3:47 am

ata i found a perfect box and blanket so will start with those till he is bigger before i buy a bed

3:47 am

awww great

3:48 am

nearly 8 weeks, next vac next week then 12 weeks then 1 year

3:48 am

Have you got the kennel built?

3:48 am

(Waiting for cries of outrage)

3:48 am

And then once he gets his final vaccinations you can start all those route marches.

3:48 am

looooooool

3:49 am

even I believe in route marches lol

3:49 am

i had lunch with mrp today and she offered me her unused kennel, don't think i need one, all my dogs before have slept inside

3:50 am

Ah, that's where you've been spoiling your dogs, Andree. Nothing says you're in charge more than providing a dog with a draughty, damp, spider infested kennel.

3:50 am

and gruel

3:50 am

Thin gruel. Thinnest of thin.

3:50 am

i was planning bread and water

3:51 am

It has to be mouldy bread, don't forget.

3:51 am

is that thin enough

3:51 am

well we all know what a cruel person i am

3:51 am

I suppose if you mix the mouldy bread into a paste with the water, it would make a kind of thin gruel.

3:51 am

You're certainly on the right lines.

3:52 am

We talk about your cruelty constantly, Andree.

3:55 am

all the time

3:55 am

i know, guess i deserve it,lol

3:59 am

How did your lunch go with mrp?

4:00 am

it was lovely, we had a delious chinese meal

4:01 am

Just the two of you? No problems in keeping the conversation going, I'm sure.

4:01 am

lol

4:02 am

she has been so sick for so long and is so well now looks fantastic, hope all that ill health is behind her

4:03 am

I think we'd all join in that hope, it's been a long road for her.

4:04 am

she feels the fast she has just done[ 14 days] has rid her body of all the drugs and antibiotics she had been on for so long

4:05 am

and i must say her eyes are sparkling and skin looks fabulous

4:05 am

made me quite sick really

4:05 am

She didn't go for the old colonic irrigation?

4:06 am

ugh

4:06 am

The thought of it is bad enough, but there are people willing to go on TV and have it done. Some things are best left to the imagination.

4:07 am

could you get any less dignified?

4:07 am

and a lot of other things on tv, i really hate reality shows, only watch 1

4:09 am

don't worry ata for the sake of ratings someone will come up with something

4:09 am

I don't mind the reality shows where people are actually being taught to do something.

4:10 am

But talking about TV and reality in the same sentence is probably pushing it.

4:11 am

Husband once took part in a local series about his veterinary practice. He got weary of having to drive the car for them to get a shot of him approaching the farm, and of being asked to do some part of an operation 'again, we didn't get a good shot.'

4:11 am

oh no! lol! poor cow!

4:12 am

many like me watch tv to get a break from reality

4:13 am

One segment featured him paring a cow's foot. You can't really put the stuff back on again, just for them to get their camera angle right.

4:13 am

i was watching something the other day and they were picking up their dog poops!!!!

4:13 am

no!!

4:14 am

and talking about the smell and carpet stains, would love to tell them to get a life

4:14 am

It was a bit of a pressure on everyone, because they would ring up and say that they were coming in on a particular day. There was no guarantee that life-saving and interesting operations were going to be needed to be done.

4:15 am

You can't just grab ill=looking animals and announce 'So you've always wanted to be a TV star?'

4:15 am

as long as they didn't make up any interesting operations!

4:15 am

Just think, Andree, you could ring up a TV station and ask to be followed around while you're house training Hugo!

4:16 am

Good evening

4:16 am

Ask for plenty of money.

4:16 am

they would probably be quite happy if you made an animal ill so they could get a good shot

4:16 am

Hello lynxxx.

4:16 am

It was quite funny, they would be willing the phone to ring with some outlandish complaint to be dealt with.

4:17 am

withthe other rubbish thats on they would probably thin it was entertainment

4:17 am

ynxxx

4:17 am

think too

4:17 am

hi lynxxx too

4:17 am

Hugo would have the cute factor on his side.

4:18 am

and the eyes!

4:19 am

You could have lingering shots of the kennel.

4:19 am

and gruel recipes!

4:19 am

Damp, draughty with HUGE Australian spiders.

4:20 am

so hugo could be a star, and i could be rich

4:21 am

It looks that way.

4:22 am

hope i still have time to babble

4:22 am

hey, we're host to loads of famous ppl here!

4:22 am

You can employ staff, you'll be able to devote your energy to babble.

4:23 am

and walking Hugo

4:23 am

and we know famous is as famous does

4:23 am

Hugo would be a charming famous puppy

4:24 am

I watched a new show last night (well new for Aust) with Kirsty from Relocation, Relocation. Showed her parents house - if I was to get rich I would buy that house complete with furnishings, beautiful!

4:24 am

Kirsty Allsop?

4:24 am

She does come from quite a rich background, doesn't she?

4:24 am

what was the show called

4:25 am

Yes, I didn't realise

4:25 am

Is it the one where she makes stuff for a cottage. Kirsty's House or something?

4:26 am

Kirsty Handcrafts or something along those lines - the show itself was so-so, sped too fast through everything

4:26 am

thus nights, i will watch out for it

4:27 am

yes Kirsty Allsop, should that surname ring a bell?

4:27 am

thurs too, my typing is extra bad tonight

4:27 am

It didn't get very good reviews over here - I haven't watched it myself so can't comment other than to say that critics felt the whole idea of people making their own stained glass was a bit unrealistic. It would still be more interesting than watching people picking up dog poo.

4:27 am

or having a colonic

4:28 am

Or having inane conversations about themselves.

4:28 am

and i know a couple of people who do stained glass

4:29 am

I think the idea is good - to encourage people to try out new crafts, but the idea of doing everything is a bit much.

4:29 am

But at least she speaks nicely!

4:29 am

you need collectives. 1 to do stained glass, 1 to make pottery etc

4:30 am

I'd make the tea and do the ironing!

4:30 am

and cook cheesecakes

4:30 am

Yes, they'd all get horribly overloaded with calories.

4:31 am

And I could brush up and keep the place tidy.

4:31 am

takes energy making crafts!

4:31 am

and i am craft mad, have so many projects going, want to finish before i die, i know my kids will toss out all my fabrics , paints etc

4:32 am

Energy...and time, and passion, and even money

4:32 am

send them all over here! I'll use them! I have boxes full of *stuff*

4:32 am

stained glass i have been told is a very expensive hobby

4:33 am

Do you have a dedicated craft room, Andree?

4:33 am

what i hate is when you give an item you have made, folks think you have saved money,lol

4:34 am

My mother was a spinner, dyer & quilter plus sewer etc. She had a quilting room. It took so long to clear it all out and pass on appropriately when she passed

4:34 am

i have a sewing room with all my stuff but keep painting and messy stuff in the garage

4:35 am

My daughter in Edinburgh was very pleased with herself, She had saved the leather from a much loved pair of boots and eventually found someone who was able to make a bespoke handbag using it and some buttons and bits and pieces she had squirreled away. She's thrilled with it and so triumphant that she hadn't listened to me and thrown out the boots.

4:36 am

when we moved in here, that was to be my work room, Jules's files and paperwork and computer etc have crept in, one of the few things about my "flatmate" that annoys me

4:37 am

Haz - is Edinburgh permanent now? Is this the daughter who graduated?

4:37 am

thats true recycling, i'm a recycling nazi[among other things]

4:37 am

Yes, it's the one who graduated in July. She's got a job in Edinburgh now although I can't see it being a job for life - and I think she'd go crazy if she thought she'd never get something better.

4:38 am

However, it's a job and better than nothing. She'd like to stay in Edinburgh, but will have to be prepared to adapt to whatever the job market is offering.

4:38 am

i try to give her the hint especially when i am making a quilt to put her stuff somewhere else

4:39 am

from little things big things grow haz

4:40 am

I'm happy that she has a strong work ethic, this job frustrates her because she isn't kept busy enough.

4:40 am

and i guess at the moment one has to think that many graduates have no job

4:41 am

Exactly. She's been feeling a bit down lately, probably because so many of her friends are going elsewhere and suddenly the reality of living as an adult instead of the different world of university is hitting home.

can't find any of the p words - find a pu4 but that is not even showing up!

4:42 am

is she teaching?

4:42 am

my ex son in law who is an economist was retrenched last december and still not working, he is being far too fussy

4:42 am

a golf pu**?

4:43 am

pf4.9 is a bit odd

i found that one lynxx but it isn't showing up

4:43 am

No, she's working on the marketing of an interior design firm, but the boss is very resistant to change.

4:43 am

po5/14 - plural little platform

4:43 am

worked for me Faith

4:43 am

i would not care less except my daughter has not had a cent from him for the kids for almost a year, she dare not complain as he may be able to claim child support from her as he has the kids 1/2 the time

sorry - didn't realize it was on the other p...slinking away now

4:44 am

Goodness, I hadn't realised that the whole child support thing could be that complicated.

thanks for the clue Haz

4:45 am

yes as she is the only parent earning

4:45 am

You're welcome, forward.

4:46 am

Do you think he's withholding the money with that get out clause in mind?

4:46 am

po4.6 is spelled like the small 'forest' here

i have a po5,14 and a po4,6 - am I missing another po?

4:48 am

no he is still jobless, i can't understand why he does not take what comes along, the longer one is jobless the harder it is to find employment

4:48 am

Just two po words.

4:48 am

no, try the pf4.9

4:48 am

just got the last of the 6's, but still missing 2x7's (got de7/44 x2)....any clues for other 2?????

4:49 am

I agree, Andree, if only to give him structure and a bit of money.

4:49 am

how about the other p, i have pa4 andpu4

4:49 am

fa7.60 compound

4:49 am

de7/40 - the killing of a god

4:49 am

and de7.40

4:49 am

and self respect has to come into it somewhere

4:50 am

ther are 2 pa4.6

4:50 am

One pa is a fatherly term, one pa is what you wish to see written on your bills.

4:50 am

thx lynxxx

thanks lynxx - p's are done

4:52 am

I should really get some other things done, so I'd better take my leave. It's been nice to chat with all of you - Happy babbling!

4:52 am

did i know that? i feel like i should have...heh

Oh disappointing. WHo is IN? I am such an Olympic lover.

I thought the announcement was at 12:30...

10:28 am

heh, yeah, red -- now that the weather is reasonable

10:28 am

They will revote for the remaining places but the one with the lowest vote is out and it was Chicago

yes, we have a few weeks of revolting weather in the beggining of September.

Wow Mary. i was hoping for an American Venue.

10:30 am

Tokyo is out, so it's between Madrid and Rio

10:30 am

Well, I hope for Rio as the Olumbic venue. The Games have NEVER been in South America!

I think Rio would be the best then, we have been in Spain, and recently.

10:32 am

I am just glad tht the committee could be thiat fairminded.

10:32 am

TS, where in MD did you grow up?

10:34 am

Silver Spring

10:34 am

My parents live in Annapolis now

10:34 am

The latest vote is that there was not a tie between the 2. Now we won't know which of the 2 will get the games. Will be announced later.

10:35 am

...and I am just a poor lawyer from Baltimore

10:35 am

heh

10:35 am

gotcha. i grew up in PG county, then moved up to Crofton, and now i live in Bethesda. :)

10:36 am

Other than a few years in Toronto, I spent my entire life in Baltimore

HI Lawyer. Evan, with the PG county, All I coudl think is when you grew up you moved on to R county...

10:39 am

Pardon my being dense, but what is R county?

Lawyer, it was a very poor joke on the movie ratings. PG(parental Guidance) as she was growing up, R for R rated....

10:40 am

it's the one people under 17 shouldn't enter without a grown-up ;)

10:40 am

In that case, I am more like XXX-rated

10:45 am

Time for me to get to work. Good luck all!

bye tacuma, enjoy the FLorida Fall...

10:47 am

Imagine that...a philosopher talking about work!

work is overrated, until you don't have it.

10:53 am

Work is overrated even when you do have it.

I sort of like my job, in small doses...

10:54 am

small doses...does that mean you are a drug dealer?

my former boyfreind retired this week. i am jealous.

very close Lawyer, I am nurse. I dole out a lot of controlled substances...

Hello, Ataaaa!

I've just got a very cryptic message from an actress friend from facebook. "How much do you like John Barrowman? Really? There is a reason for asking ..."

11:30 am

Intriguing!

11:30 am

yes ......

11:31 am

And how much did you tell her you liked him?

11:32 am

I asked why first!

11:33 am

This suspense is killing me!

11:33 am

Very cautious of you. Forewarned is forearmed.

11:33 am

she's not getting me on tv lol

11:33 am

(And four-armed is half an octopus.)

11:33 am

hi lawyer!

11:34 am

11:34 am

Hello, lawyer.

11:34 am

11:42 am

11:42 am

LOL TO!

11:42 am

WHat are these men supposed to be eligible for, TO?

*sigh* vi: what do you think?

11:44 am

Well, it sounds like they're supposed to be eligible for giving jmc a million dollars! lol

11:44 am

Ata, though of you today as I wrapped up the DoG in bubble wrap :)

11:44 am

ohhhhhh! I was thinking about the DoG at Oxonmoot. I found an M&S box of shortcake that had his replica on!

11:45 am

LOL!

you wrapped your dog in bubblewrap?

11:46 am

yes I did TO but so very carefully - he will be fine, honest :)

11:46 am

Keeps 'em safe, TO. Her dog has a perfect finish.

just leave hte head out

11:47 am

ANd if you don't use plenty of bubble wrap the postal service can be so rough.

11:47 am

No, TO, the head's the most delicate part! Double layer there!

11:48 am

I wish WISH I could find another 2 for me and Haz!

11:48 am

Is all this wrapping preperatory to the move, FM?

11:49 am

Refresh for a pic of the DoD, ... see I am so out of touch with babble I got it mixed up with the CoG!

11:50 am

hi all!

11:50 am

yay DoD!

11:50 am

how is everyone this lovely Friday?

11:50 am

Hello, nrkii!

11:50 am

Yes Vi have spent the afternoon packing up the arts and crafts stuff, the bulk will be packed by theremoval comapny but I still need to do some sorting.

11:51 am

Whooeee, good luck with it all!

11:51 am

I have 7 to go... could someone just go ahead and clue them for me so I can be free? :)

11:51 am

Hi nrkii! Thanks Vi.

11:51 am

lo, nrkii. I'm stalled out at 8.

11:52 am

that middle column P is plaguing me

11:52 am

*lol I just laughed out, I guess. But not loud.

11:52 am

I have one of the three

11:52 am

Gah, I haven't started yet again, my rankings a thepits now so I don't care :)

hi nrk! i am preparing to move out of the seated position and maybe even out of the house

11:52 am

I am waiting with baited (bated?) breath TO for that rich guy

11:52 am

hi nrkii

11:52 am

po4/6 - rhymes with what you eat

11:53 am

I want to get to the gym (and get it over with) soon

11:53 am

po5/14 - what lots of speakers speak at

11:53 am

11:53 am

there is a pf4

11:53 am

pf4/9 - Babblet exclamation of disgust

11:53 am

11:53 am

hello all

11:53 am

cool, down to 5 now!

11:53 am

well philanderers are always easy to find

11:53 am

Just not the smae somehow, is it, TO! =P

11:53 am

hi kallia

hi kahlia

11:54 am

yay for Rio!

11:54 am

*same. smae must be some sort of Scottish porridge, I think.

11:54 am

Hello, Kallia.

11:54 am

what Rio and not Chicago? bummer

11:54 am

I'll take a philanderer here... but only for a fling of course

defintely scottish something or other

11:54 am

hi kahlia

11:54 am

Chicago was out as of this morning

nrk i am going to join match.com this weekend

11:54 am

too bad

11:55 am

ooh, TO, say it isn't so...

11:55 am

rio was my second choice

11:55 am

disgust is pfft. dont see it. help

11:55 am

Vi you are picking up my bad typing habits and I have only been back for a short while!

11:55 am

I could visit my former house keeper

hey one of the matches they mailed me was a former coworker!

11:55 am

smae sounds gruelish

11:55 am

no, I take that back... I hope you end up loving match.com and finding undamaged goods there

11:55 am

Good luck TO

11:55 am

TO, I've gotten 2 former coworkers :)

11:55 am

pf +2 vowels

11:56 am

this is the funniest wildlife video - Stephen Fry and Mark Cawardine and a kakapo: http://tinyurl.com/yb56d8k

11:56 am

Is your typing really that contagious, FM? Will it help if I rub my screen with alcohol periodically?

11:56 am

I liked the two guys I met through match.com

well doren got her neighbor!

11:56 am

my ex, who i dated for 2 years, i met on match.com

11:56 am

and one of them I actually dated a few times

11:56 am

oh, I also got a neighbor... lives 3 doors away

oooh dish, je! i did not know you joined

11:56 am

course, they also tried to match me with an old coworker, and a friends ex!

11:56 am

didn't date him though... that would have been TOO bizarre

11:57 am

several years ago when son was young

11:57 am

my last match experience made me quit match though

11:57 am

but it turned out my son couldn't handle me dating so I stopped

wekk any of you who have experience, can you help me please> why do i get matched by mail where i am older than they specify? that's cheating. you too nrk - dish

11:57 am

one was a writer who lived in rural va.

11:58 am

Time for dinner - lovely to see you al but must be off. Happy Babbling.

11:58 am

the other was a lawyer whose wife had dumped him for a woman

fm lovely to see you.

11:58 am

1. match.com kept sending me same matches over and over

11:58 am

bye dear!

11:58 am

2. match.com kept sending me matches way out of my geography range

11:58 am

you get match if you have several thing matching even if not all

11:58 am

TO, i think if you match up with the majority of their specifications, they will still match you

11:58 am

bye fm

11:59 am

3. 2 of the 3 guys I dated from match were not self-confident enough for my tastes

and do they do that to void the guarantee? that is why i think they send me matches that don't want me

11:59 am

bye fm!

11:59 am

my friend + her hubby met through match, though. they seem well-matched!

11:59 am

wow there were a lot of vowel combinations around the pf!

ok well as long as it did not involve danger...how long were you a member?

12:00 pm

no, TO, I think they just want you to keep your options a bit more open

12:00 pm

off and on for a few years

12:00 pm

no they were both sweet.

12:00 pm

the last one had me worried about danger, after I broke up with him

ty for sharing. i do need to go have a headshot done

12:00 pm

of course the minute i describe my job anyone can find me on the internet

12:00 pm

I went to Glamour Shots and splurged, then also put in a couple of candids

12:01 pm

maybe I should get my son to go a glamor shot of me and try again

12:01 pm

Umm... belated farewell, FM!

is there still a glamor shots?

12:01 pm

It was nice to meet new people, and to date... I miss that

12:01 pm

yep still exists... I went to the one in the Bridgewater (NJ) mall

12:01 pm

i always emailed/chatted online for quite some time before agreeing to meet. if they were too desperate to meet or pushing me into it, i was done. then, when i did agree to meet, it was always in a public place, where someone knew where i was + when i was to be home. often, i would have a friend with me for the initial meeting.

12:01 pm

it was fun!

ok thx will google ...the one here made me look like a tart

12:02 pm

Eva, I wasn't quite as cautious

12:02 pm

oh, just tell them you need headshots for work, so you can't go too crazy

12:03 pm

i was kinda paranoid. but better safe than sorry. :)

12:03 pm

and after I "wasn't quite as cautious," I wished I had been more so

ok i think i would begin as eva but i guess there is a point where you make a decision

12:04 pm

nothing happened, but I had a few days where I was worried he was going to turn into a stalker

12:04 pm

TO, very true, at some point, you're going to take a risk

OMG nrk they can airbrush you!!

12:04 pm

they DID airbrush me, which was a little annoying

12:04 pm

TO, if youre still in annapolis, theres a Glamour Shots near there. ;)

12:04 pm

that's why I ended up including candids too

hell nrk i need all the airburshing i can get! ty evaN

12:05 pm

oh, one thing with Glamour Shots... bring some clothes of your own... don't rely on what they have. And bring good color selection.

they would need to graft a new head, as beat aws i am after work

12:06 pm

go before work then ;)

12:06 pm

well, they airbrushed out a couple of moles I have on my face, which is great, but eventually you're going to meet the guy, and not look quite as GLAMOURY as they make you look

good thought ata but i look horrid at 6AM

12:07 pm

awww bet you don't

12:07 pm

Or bring your own extra head so they don't give you one that looks like a tart.

what i fear is that they will make my skin look better than it is then whomnever will be very disappointed

12:07 pm

no way TO... you're quite pretty and I know you'll look great...

12:07 pm

I think anyone who sees a "glamour shot" will know thats not 100% accurate

12:08 pm

and if they overdo it on your skin, you can get the non-airbrushed version too

12:08 pm

but definitely include a couple of candids in your profile

12:08 pm

I think you looking nice is much better than any attempts to make you look like some fake model person.

nrk: i had such bad acne as a teen and young adult...i have had two lasers to treat it and am currenlty g ong to book another

12:08 pm

I agree Vicuna, but I still had a blast getting the glamour shots done

12:09 pm

TO go on a day off and then you have no excuse

12:09 pm

Well, that's a whole nother issue, nrkii. No harm in having fun with it! =)

i don't want to look glamourous. just pretty

12:09 pm

i had glamor shots done when i was like 13 or 14 and people thought i was 30. :X

12:09 pm

TO, didn't I meet you in DC this past winter? Weren't you there?

yes.

12:09 pm

by the way, my facebook pic is Glamour Shot

12:09 pm

can you get a friend to take some just "normal" photos? Friends always get the best shots of you looking relaxed

12:10 pm

well, I didn't notice anything with your skin, so you shouldn't worry about it too much

good plan, ata

12:10 pm

our mirrors need to be redesigned so we can't look at them quite so close up

12:10 pm

that's a lovely pic, nrk

12:10 pm

Or get them slightly frosted.

LOl it's worsew with reading glasses if you forget to take them off

12:11 pm

I loved that shot because even though it makes me a little "too pretty," it captures how I felt inside, and my personality in general

12:11 pm

and thanks Ata!

12:11 pm

it is, it's a really "normal" glamour shot, you look happy and smily

well i was loooking for one of the shots from our meet that i thoght was pretty good but no one has sent any

12:12 pm

yes, maybe we could get that filter they used on Cybil Shepherd in Moonlighting... soft filter on all our mirrors, so we are more forgiving

12:12 pm

TO, can you grab it off FB?

i read where tom brokaw was shot through a filter

12:13 pm

Yeah, very nice smile, nrk!

12:13 pm

hrm. i dont think we are facebook friends, nrkii...

i don't know...does your FB have it? I htought it was seian's but I can't remember

12:13 pm

I thought we were Eva. Nancy R. Kienzler.

12:14 pm

Seian's has it, and Monkey's too (Laurie J)

12:14 pm

nope! but i just sent you a request. :)

i LOVe your fb shot! I thinkit does look like you and it does capture you

12:15 pm

thanks!

i just friended you

12:16 pm

(But I still can't help but picture you with golden ringlets!)

12:16 pm

received, and accepted!

does GS do the makeup? and is it costly?

12:16 pm

lol vicuna, and a really bitchy personality

12:16 pm

ick ick! don't you just hate it when your neck *clicks* and you feel all sick for a moment

12:17 pm

they do the hair and makeup, and it's very inexpensive to have the session... but the pics are expensive

12:17 pm

that is a nice shot on your FB :)

12:17 pm

Atalante, mine's done that a few times recently

12:17 pm

You mean when you crick it and the shooting pains go all everywhere? I HATE that!

12:17 pm

TO you too? are we FB friends?

12:17 pm

you can limit the money you spend though

12:17 pm

yes! ick ick ICK. *sudden momentary annoyance*

12:17 pm

those who love music may be interested in listening to an Incredible musical instrument‏ made almost entirely from from John Deere machine components: extraordi...wmv (5.7 MB)

12:20 pm

12:20 pm

12:20 pm

12:20 pm

sea squirt

12:20 pm

okay, need last 5 words... am an hour late to go to gym already

evaN: recent events have had me taking a break from fb. fear of getting on the wrong person's list

12:20 pm

my email is in limbo so there is not a lot I can do except answer the phone

bye,vi!

12:20 pm

cool BR it is really bright!

12:21 pm

ooh, never fun. wishing you a speedy return. ;)

12:21 pm

TO, that is why the facebook BLOCK function comes in handy

12:21 pm

people never even know you've blocked 'em

*sigh* nrk would you be willing for a lunch one day soon?

12:22 pm

yes, we like the block function

12:22 pm

absolutely TO! I'm here, I'm unemployed, what better to do ???

12:23 pm

LOL, I'd love to see you

we could be gym buddies. but they would take me out on a stretcher

12:23 pm

just pick date and time... can come out your way and meet after work if easier

12:24 pm

you should come to my gym... most of the people there look like they came IN on a stretcher

how about puck?

12:24 pm

but they're feisty

12:24 pm

puck would be great -- haven't been yet

*chking on pizza8 lol

scrabs how is the new job?

12:44 pm

they think the Obamas almost didn't do Chicago's chances any good now

12:45 pm

I don't think it really mattered except for those in the US who like to blame him for everything

12:46 pm

New job = total contrast from old. New job has nice, competent, respectful, supportive colleagues + staff. I am SO happy.

12:47 pm

that's great Scrab! no more stress :)

12:47 pm

the only reason people are saying that is that Tony Blair was out at the London bid for nearly a week, being really involved. the Obamas flew in that morning. So "no commitment"!

12:47 pm

Scrab, do you still work in the hospital where they used to page you as Dr. Scrabbler?

LOL no way...

12:49 pm

hello all, help with first de6/27 pls

12:59 pm

I have seen nudibranchs that coloring diving...such wonderful little creatures

12:59 pm

1:00 pm

I'm staying home today and making bagels. The kitchen is warming up and smells delightful

1:00 pm

(picks up lox and cream cheese and is heading for Bichon's house) :)

1:00 pm

good plan, bichon! fresh bagels are wonderful.. am on my way over too..

1:01 pm

there's plenty, I double the recipe. and they're 1/3 whole wheat too.

1:01 pm

You have to make nice to Bichon though. But, he's easy to love

1:01 pm

I'll bring some fresh coffee beans and assorted teas.

1:01 pm

do you have a grinder?

1:02 pm

I am such a dog person.. not a problem bichon..

1:02 pm

Hi Soodle & Ruru

1:02 pm

hi scrabs...

1:02 pm

not really, ruru. sea cucumbers are related to starfish

1:02 pm

how can 1/3 be whole?

1:02 pm

No coffee here, only tea drinkers. The kids drink coffee so I threw them out

1:03 pm

1/3 of the flur is whole wheat

1:03 pm

yay bichon! very sensible

1:03 pm

*flour

1:03 pm

Hi Scrabs. Delighted to see your new job is a success. Good for you!

1:03 pm

I am very fortunate

1:03 pm

well, that answers that ... and thanks

1:04 pm

poor kids (bichon's) homeless and living at a starbucks or something..

1:05 pm

so ata.. sea squirts are related to cuttle fish and squid?

1:06 pm

they're out begging for coffee, serves them right!

1:06 pm

(makes signs.. will work for a cappuchino)

1:07 pm

not really ... sea squirts are a very strange thing all on their own. They are very primitive ... but are related to vertebrates and us!

hi ru..aorry, off wandering. happy babbling

1:07 pm

thanks ata.. I love studying sea life..

1:07 pm

cuttlefish adn squid are cephalopods

1:07 pm

My thanks again to ARB for posting.. time to work some more on the kitchen; remodeling is coming along smartly now, have running water, yay.. anyone like a clue before I scoot?

1:08 pm

1:08 pm

pax vobiscum, Aloyisius <}:+))

1:08 pm

I saw a really great sign in Palo Alto this summer. A homeless guy is out on the street begging for food: Need to eat, organic food only

1:08 pm

all are used for food, though

1:09 pm

thanks so much BabbleRabble.. you have indeed made me smile on World Smile Day.. love your clown! Retro Pax to you.. off I go, happy babbling all.. poof!

1:10 pm

Bye Aloy

1:10 pm

bye bye aloy..

1:10 pm

I just realized why I feel feverish + achy. I had my flu shot yesterday.

1:10 pm

No, just out on the street. I love Palo Alto, it's got so many interesting people

1:10 pm

or is that Homer street?

1:11 pm

Glad to provide some light relief, Wildcat!! :)

1:11 pm

I lived there for many years bichon

1:11 pm

It is very funny soodle..well done

1:11 pm

ruru - sea squirts / tunicates are absolutely fascinating.. they are an important part of evolutionary studies, and in embryology

1:12 pm

oh.. they are tunicates.. got it.

1:12 pm

they are related to chitons then?

1:13 pm

I am going to have to read up on them.. I don't think I have ever seen one diving out here on the West Coast.

1:16 pm

no lol. they aren't really related to much. they really are a separate little bunch ... probably the next group "down" from the real vertebrates. read up on them, it's fascinating.

1:17 pm

That's cause the water's too damn cold

1:17 pm

nm chitons can't be related.. we have some types of tunicates out here, but they are attached to rocks and are tiny.

1:19 pm

yep, tunicates are everywhere, most ppl just don't notice them

1:19 pm

http://www.tunicates.com/

1:19 pm

I suppose sea squirts cannot be accused of getting big heads if they digest their own brains.

1:20 pm

jeez they have their own web-site..lol

1:21 pm

I know some humans who appear to have digested their own brains!

1:21 pm

yes soodle.. we call them republicans..

1:21 pm

Yes, and most of them live in my town

1:22 pm

That will be my new name for them - tunicates!!

1:23 pm

what are republicans in Ireland. Different from the U.S.?

1:23 pm

Actually I cant wait to meet one of them, and hiss "CHOON-IC-AAAATE".

1:24 pm

Bichon - all politicians in this country are tunicates!

1:24 pm

well, yes, there's that

1:25 pm

sea cucumbers are another good one - they vomit out their insides in a gooey mess

1:26 pm

ewwwwwwwwww

1:26 pm

because they want a warm meal?

1:26 pm

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

1:27 pm

you poke them and they vomit their guts

1:27 pm

they are soo cute...little sea cucumbers...

1:27 pm

ours don't really purge out here ata..

1:28 pm

purge in the surge that is...lol

1:28 pm

they would if you poke 'em enough *evil grin*

1:28 pm

I like to touch them and shape them into little sea footballs

1:28 pm

you're obviously not very scary :)

1:29 pm

you do have to scare them

1:29 pm

I respect all of god's creatures.. (except madonna)

1:29 pm

(and Barry Manilow)

1:30 pm

(well there is actually a longer list.. but I won't bore you with the details)

1:30 pm

1:31 pm

Scrabs, did you read the article in yesterday's NY Times about dementia and football players?

1:48 pm

I developed a dislike for football, not the game itself, but the macho mentality of coaches + players--play despite pain & injury

1:48 pm

Hiya Jac :)

1:49 pm

you should see the Texas HS version then scrabs

1:49 pm

Nope, but I can find it, Bichon. Are demented people more likely to play football or does football increase risk of dementia due to recurrent head trauma?

1:49 pm

I believe it, jm

1:49 pm

I don't think they start out demented, just misdirected

Glad you liked them, BabbleRabble.

2:18 pm

Hi Crossy!

2:18 pm

howdy scwabby

2:18 pm

Crossy - No joke. 5 llamas & 3 goats escaped from a circus in Dublin yesterday. They got out onto the busiest road in the country. Took 20 policemen to round them up

2:19 pm

are the llamas next to the alpacas?

2:19 pm

and then they escaped!

2:19 pm

it was on our travel new over here

2:19 pm

*news

2:19 pm

they were taken off to an animal pound, and they were kidnapped last night!

2:19 pm

i believe it soodles,we have an alpaca farm near here

2:19 pm

OMG

2:19 pm

Oh I am glad, Katie. I was sure nobody would believe me!!

2:20 pm

I'm watching torchwood special, I know it's from ages ago and JB is naked and I'm sure his bits were just on the screen

2:20 pm

Chief suspect in the kidnap case is the circus owner. He was moaning last night on tv that it would cost him €5,000 to bail them out.

2:21 pm

oo-er! what channel!

2:21 pm

Help with pa4/6? I have the daddy one.

2:21 pm

it was supposedly a rival circus owner who let them out

2:21 pm

Wow, the llama saga continues!

2:21 pm

Never a dull moment, Vic!

2:21 pm

pa4 - what you did to your bills

2:22 pm

TY, Vicuna

2:22 pm

pf word please?

2:22 pm

oh lovely. gotta love when youre given, oh, one business day to do a project that would regularly take weeks, if not months, to really do correctly...

2:22 pm

Who says they were kidnapped? These are circus goats, you know. They can probably pick locks, cartwheel between laser alarms, and bungee down from their barred cells!

2:23 pm

Oh, no, Eva! mean boss!

2:23 pm

pf- Babblet exclamation of disgust

2:23 pm

very true vic

2:23 pm

not sure how clever the llamas are though ....

2:23 pm

Big Sickness has so far pa4 $400 million to lobby against health care reform ..

2:23 pm

sadly, not my boss. it was handed down from the client, so we cant explain why thats not enough time. looks like we will just hafta do our best + they will hafta be happy with it.

2:23 pm

TY again, Vicuna

2:23 pm

wow that is alot of money

2:24 pm

llamas can handle that and more, Ata. Don't you doubt it!

2:24 pm

That is just so very sad, tor. =(

2:27 pm

There, see. We unmutilated people are not so rare. ;)

2:27 pm

i had my navel pierced

2:28 pm

Well, if you count surgery as being punctured, tor, I'm afraid I can't claim I'm unpunctured.

2:28 pm

i liked it ex hubby hated it, told me if i ever got sanything else pierced or bleached (hair) he was leaving, so i pulled up my top and told him i was getting them done next, the suitcases were in the loft

2:29 pm

Hmm. I don't sense a lot of compromise in that relationship, jacq! =P

2:29 pm

un-cosmetically-punctured let's say ..

2:30 pm

lol, by then there wasn't vic, for 17 years he had dictated the length of my hair, the style of my hair and even the colour and i got sick of it

2:30 pm

Understandable, jacq.

2:30 pm

i wasn't some cowed scared wee girl any more, i was a woman and i roared

2:31 pm

*trembles before the power of WOMAN*

2:31 pm

2:40 pm

yay yay!

epi 4 *rocks*

4:10 pm

Ata? When you write your papers do you use a style guide? If so, which one?

4:12 pm

not any more. I followed my PhD supervisors guidance originally, but guidelines really depend on which journal you're writing for

4:16 pm

I have come across some articles recently that talked about making science more interesting to non-scientists by changing the way the papers are written

4:17 pm

I think there are 2 types of scientific paper. And this is what scientists work towards - you write a few scientific papers in obscure journals, and then write a popular science version for something like Sci American or Nature or the newspapers

4:18 pm

Science Today has articles I sometimes understand .. I think

4:19 pm

lol. unfortunately, some things just don't work as popular science

4:19 pm

Is there a te 5/12?

4:20 pm

it's really nice to say they all should do, but they just dont. I couldn't write about the details of fish cladistics without first explaining the concepts behind cladistic analysis etc etc. To just write "cladistics is a mathematical way of analysing relationships" is possible, but that's dumbing down

4:20 pm

yep

4:22 pm

I mention it because science is so important .. especially now with so many environmental and food issues ... the world needs top people to find solutions

4:24 pm

this article is rather shocking to me: http://tinyurl.com/ycysjzh

4:25 pm

fireworks!!!!!!!

4:25 pm

congrats, jacq

4:25 pm

ty BR, finally found a list on babanon or the last 3 might have still eluded me

4:26 pm

still took an age to find them lol

4:26 pm

we are spoiled with lickety

4:26 pm

think i'll have some wine to celebrate

4:26 pm

absolutely. it is ... the world is so screwed, but it's so important to see reality from hype

4:29 pm

the reality for me is that too many Americans think being the number 1 or 2 polluter and the number 1 consumer as their birthright ... absolute hogwash but hard to combat

4:29 pm

yep! ditto in China

I'm with you Atalante. I like to read Science and Nature. there are definitely some scientific articles that I dont want to read, but I think are important for others in the profession to read. but, there are so many who wont even read nature or National Geographic.

4:31 pm

Hello Everyone. Could I get a clue, please, for de 7/44?

past tense of the 6 27, to make a choice.

4:32 pm

the details really *shouldn't* be important to the layman if the headlines are written *properly*

4:32 pm

I'm sorry - I meant the de 7/40!! I do have the 7/44.

4:33 pm

the truly sad part for me is even if written properly some politician will lie about it

sort of a mass god killing if you will (I got that clue from Haz.)

4:34 pm

yep. whatever scientists write will be changed

4:34 pm

back -- did you miss me?

4:34 pm

hello, jmc

I just got back myself, but sure jmc, I always miss you.

4:35 pm

4:38 pm

4:39 pm

5:39 pm

that sounds familiar! mine were like that too

5:39 pm

always make me feel better, thanks. now at 8

Ok I have returned with lemon chicken and egg drop soup. I feel so indulgent.

5:43 pm

and why not. indulgence is a necessity, i think

5:44 pm

I just uploaded a pic of my new puppy we got last night. She is 7mth and her name is Maggie.

I agree, but I dont want it to be a habit.

5:44 pm

cute puppy. indulgence wouldn't be healthy if it were a frequent habit... need a proper balance of wanting and having

dorens how is the foot?

5:46 pm

still attached, red

5:46 pm

:)

5:46 pm

lol dor

5:46 pm

5:50 pm

Hi Nef

5:50 pm

hi nef

5:50 pm

it is actually sprinkling here in San Diego... how crazy !

5:51 pm

I just got here myself; this grid looks --odd

5:51 pm

not anything major

5:51 pm

so the song is wrong (it never rains in southern california)

5:51 pm

yes it is indeed wrong Dorens

5:51 pm

Hi DR, Dorens, wildcat and all

5:51 pm

this grid is odd. i am missing six four letter words and I swear i have tried everything (obviously i am wrong)

5:52 pm

they are there, just hidden!

5:52 pm

I have 20 words so far

i have 11 left most 4 and 5.

5:52 pm

go Red! go Dorens!

5:53 pm

so you must be done, Ata?

i am surprised pooed is not a word!

5:53 pm

7 here

5:53 pm

think i tmight be poohed. and sure, i DID try pooed

5:53 pm

ahaha facebook has a latin language setting now. "Quid cogitas?"

amazing dan!

5:55 pm

i must need to walk away from this. i keep trying the same things -- it might look better after dinner

5:56 pm

it will!

5:57 pm

ok then. will be back. night ata

5:57 pm

6 and my kids want to eat so bbl

5:57 pm

Bye Dorens

5:57 pm

bye wild

5:57 pm

be well, dorens

5:57 pm

te5?

5:57 pm

hi, red, dan, wild, dr, sue et al

5:58 pm

hi and bye seain

5:58 pm

hi DC- hope you were able to get some rest

5:58 pm

te5 has a double vowel, sue

5:58 pm

hi seain. How's things going?

5:58 pm

hi seain

5:59 pm

the same vowel?

5:59 pm

yes, rest achieved. Things are well. We got home on Tuesday, and are going back to Cleveland tomorrow, as there's a follow-up with the FNP on Monday

5:59 pm

be well, wild :)

5:59 pm

nm, got it

5:59 pm

that is encouraging DC Good for both of you!

5:59 pm

I know it has been hard

6:01 pm

he's frustrated, as it hurts, and his gradient and flow have not changed as yet when invoked according to the echo

6:03 pm

could the non change be due to surgical swelling? _ I have no clue- just have had lots of suregery

6:03 pm

He looks pretty chipper in the pictures; although if I was his nurse I wouldn't let him look that rumpled and let you take a picture of him like that!

6:04 pm

he's been in a good mood all-in-all. And i have no pity for the pain, as he's not using the lipoderm

6:04 pm

when was his surgery? (trying to figure out if he should still have enough swelling to cause that)

6:05 pm

wow, very stoic, seain

6:05 pm

a week ago thursday, the 24th

6:05 pm

stoic?

6:05 pm

then i do not pity the pain either! I have had lots of surgery and htey give you pain meds because it hurts!

6:05 pm

ah. i'm sympathetic, and i'll suggest the lipoderm again to him.

6:05 pm

good mood but not taking pain meds?

6:05 pm

exactly, dr

6:05 pm

seems pretty stoic to me! :-)

6:06 pm

he has chronic pain, une, so this pain is more concentrated

6:06 pm

he will feel better and move better if he uses the pain meds more now this soon after surgery

6:06 pm

oohhh, ok

6:06 pm

i know, nef, and so should he. I'll remind him :)

6:06 pm

but so far, so good, right/

6:07 pm

and, no, it's not wussy taking pain relief! :P

6:07 pm

seain, tell him he is only supposed to resist painkillers if he just had a baby and is nursing. Otherwise, the pain meds will help him relax and heal quicker.

6:07 pm

LOL- nice Bugs

6:08 pm

Does he still look like a Simpson with all the orange paint?

6:09 pm

The sooner he's up moving around the better he will be. The pain meds allow him to move better this soon after surgery. By holding off on them it slows his healing down

6:09 pm

will do bugsaw

6:09 pm

well that was uplifting (not!)

6:09 pm

he's moving lots, nef, that's not an issue

6:09 pm

I have 2 de7 and 1 fa7- what is the last one please

6:09 pm

he was out of bed day of surgery, into wheelchair, into bed, and walking the next day

6:09 pm

lol torchwood isn't exactly all happy endings!

6:09 pm

Hi Katie

6:09 pm

There are 3 DE 7's

6:10 pm

CAR!!! How are you???

6:11 pm

Here's my pain scale I used on my pts. 1-3 is distracible pain (you forget about it while oding things; but are aware of it if not distracted). 4-6 is pain you can't be distracted from; you can still eat, visit, watch TV, but are aware the pain is still there. 7-10 pain is shut up, give me drugs, leave me alone! (You can't DO stuff at all) You want to keep the pain less than 4-5

6:12 pm

for him, 7 is distractible, but his usual levels would be a 3 to most people, i'm sure, so his view is skewed

6:12 pm

Hello everyone. I've had a hell of a job getting this site to load. Odd, since it's a small grid.

6:13 pm

hi, jacula

6:14 pm

Hi Jac

6:14 pm

hi Jac

6:14 pm

Is this surgery designed to relieve him of pain levels that high, seain? I sure hope so

6:15 pm

Seain, tell him to ONLY consider the surgical pain, not whatever his chronic pain is

6:15 pm

no, bugsaw. this surgery was to relieve his hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy

6:16 pm

is there going to be another series?

6:16 pm

i've tried, nef.

6:16 pm

he is taking his percocet

6:16 pm

okay. I'm not his nurse; and he won't listen to you. That makes it tough

nurses make realy suckky patients!!!!

6:17 pm

having watched 4 hours of torchwood and now thoroughly depressed I'm off to bed, see you all tomorrow x

6:17 pm

that is still under discussion, katie. everyone wants one, and it's *likely*, I think

6:17 pm

I feel so badly for people who must live whith chronic pain. I admire their persistence and good humour when I would probably be rolled up into the fetal position

6:17 pm

there is that, red

6:17 pm

Sorry DR...what chatting with DH....we are OK...hanging in.

6:18 pm

I have been thinking of all of you

6:18 pm

is Tom a nurse?

6:18 pm

Giving up, as my posts aren't appearing. It's worse than the old days of 'dial-up'.

6:18 pm

Giving up, as my posts aren't appearing. It's worse than the old days of 'dail-up'.

6:19 pm

that one came up twice, jac

6:19 pm

oh sorry to hear that Jac

hi jacula, i see them!

6:19 pm

I had that problem yesterday

6:19 pm

Spent the morning with Dad...not much to report...he is stable, but they still can't get him extubated. They will try again tonight.

6:19 pm

it is so hard to see anyone you love like that

oh no fun car...i hope all goes well.

hello all. does anyone have a list in their profile?

6:22 pm

why did Michelle Obama go to the Olympic thingy today dressed as an Easter Egg?

because she can?

6:23 pm

lol good point!

6:23 pm

no but there is one is Babanon

Excellent point.

6:24 pm

Jac has one in her profile

6:24 pm

she did look unusually awful though

news reported she was a hit- personally

6:26 pm

she did give a lovely speech

news also reported lots of anti-american sentiment, though us is great supporter of ioc

its going to be rio! which will be neat!

6:28 pm

really!

fo6/30 # 1 clue pls?

6:31 pm

someone who likes eating nice things

people who enjoy haute cuisine but singular

ty ata!

ooh watching letterman crap - imean flap

6:32 pm

Nef, Tom is a CCRN who works in a general ICU at a community hospital here

6:33 pm

lol TO

hi seain! how is tom today?

6:33 pm

Trying again.

6:33 pm

alright, and hurting more than he lets on. Right now he's laid down. So he'll be up at 5.

6:33 pm

his poor wife!

6:34 pm

seain, I was a CCRN for 25 years! Tell him to be a good patient! ;-)

6:34 pm

wb, jacula

6:34 pm

Ahm slightly faster. Yes, I do have a list in my profile and I went into BabAnon earlier to correct the date on the list posted in there.

hi jacs

ty jacs

your lsit is very easy to read

6:35 pm

i've been trying, Nef. His nurses all liked him, and he was cooperative.

6:35 pm

jacula, ty for the list

6:36 pm

(I first took the CCRN exam on vacation in Montana in 1978) It's a tough exam; I took it a total of 7 times before I gave up and renewed my CCRN by CEUs

6:36 pm

we babblers all know that woot is indeed a word! also wooted!

6:36 pm

Just wondring now if my lag is due to the fact that I used a pic straight off the net rather than downloading it and taking it from my pc.

6:36 pm

indeed, eva

6:36 pm

and noted about the exam, Nef

6:36 pm

Eva - I thought that about 'woot', too.:-)

6:37 pm

is it you who always says that Jac? Or someone else.

6:37 pm

maybe they consider woot a noun, it IS a website (woot.com)

clue for the last po 4 6? i need a fish i am sure...

6:38 pm

Not me, Eva.

6:38 pm

woot.com has some good deals

6:38 pm

(one of my favorite sites, BTW)

6:39 pm

pooped red minus a vowel

final wo 5 clue pls/

6:39 pm

it does indeed, seain. I've bought a few too many of them through the years!

ty dr!!!!

er..dr, i think your post is an advertisement for use of commas

6:40 pm

yvw- just got it myself

nm

6:40 pm

I write regulatory policy all day- when I come home- all commas are off

6:41 pm

as is spellcheck : )

6:41 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

6:41 pm

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

6:41 pm

6:41 pm

hi, minver

6:41 pm

6:41 pm

Hi Min

Hi Minver, and DR I think thats a good policy at hoome. How is Jake?

what are you making, seain?

6:42 pm

He is good Red- he nadhis Dad are bowling right now

6:42 pm

DR, I thinking about the red poop! I do think that sentence needed some commas! ;-)

6:42 pm

* and his (LOL)

6:43 pm

she got the word so maybe not

6:43 pm

: )

it was abit unsettling to look up suddenly and read that

6:43 pm

sorry to upset you TO and Nef

:)

6:44 pm

0.75 C fine chopped onion, 3 cloves garil minced, 1/8 C hot peppers, chopped an mostly seeded, 6 fresh tomatoes, rough chopped. Brief saute of onion/garlic/peppers, add tomatoes, cook until tomato caramelizes. Deglaze with juice of one lemon, let cook more. Add 1 C pasta water, toss with pasta and 1/2 C grated cheese. Spicy, but not too much so.

6:44 pm

I am amused because my boss said to me just today " Wow! You love your commas." as she was erasing them

yes, I got it, but I am used to seeing Red as my name here....

i am already upset. fightin the horrible taste thing again

DC you are such a Fo****!

6:45 pm

ok- I promise I will work on my snetence structure

6:45 pm

guilty as charged, red :)

6:46 pm

Go redturtlehead go!

OK, I walked the dog today for 4 miles. at the end of the 3.5, he started to lay down and protest. refused to get in the car.... Now 8 hours later hes yapping at me....for more excersise...

6:47 pm

i saw more up4s in Cleveland than i've seen in ages. Big hair is big there right now.

6:47 pm

of course!

6:47 pm

LOL redturtlehead!

6:47 pm

how dog-like, red :)

6:47 pm

DR, you didn't upset me. As an old ICU nurse I've seen lots of red pooh in the past; but it's the odor that you don't forget

6:48 pm

7:03 pm

There's no Lickety's List, but I got a list in my profile

7:03 pm

the Roman church has actively practiced de7, and documents some acts of it on their public website. Read about Saint Barbara there a day.

7:07 pm

the Roman church has practiced killing gods?

7:08 pm

Ata - mine won't stay off work unless he's half-dead, and then I have to cosh him with a frying pan to make him stay home.

7:08 pm

Congratulations stidmama on finishing the 1st week in your Master's program. How many more weeks left

7:08 pm

figuratively and culturally, yes, BR

7:08 pm

Hello BabbleRabble!How are you? Welcome to the grid

7:08 pm

oh

7:08 pm

really

7:08 pm

*Draws curtains over SueFrad's room and writes a line of .....'s.*

7:08 pm

lucky you! husband has been ill all week. he has a "cold"

7:09 pm

best case, demotion of gods

7:09 pm

in the name of conversion/salvation.

Does he have the Swine FLu?

7:10 pm

are you serious?

7:10 pm

at least. pneumonia too probably

7:10 pm

Ata - mine was fine until 20 mins after he got up at about 5am yesterday, then the coughing began.

7:10 pm

hello BR!

7:10 pm

i am, though that was all long, long ago.

7:10 pm

Red - I hope not! Someone where he works really did have it last week.

7:10 pm

hello, stid

7:11 pm

I'll probably sleep on the sofa tonight.

7:11 pm

I tried to persuade him that if he spent all day yesterday playing on his playstation, he could probably manage to work today. but no. "best to be careful" he says

7:11 pm

I see ... I have a word for that

If he has it he'll be sick like the regular flu for about 8 days, then pretty much get over it. and Sofa a good idea. He might want to get the nasty tamiflu since it started suddenly.

7:11 pm

Better not climb into bed with stepdaughter as she's a bit miffed at us for daring to watch Autumnwatch on TV together without informing her.

7:11 pm

yes, BR? :)

Ohhhh One of my fav foods is in Grid!

7:12 pm

how dare you!

7:12 pm

red - thanks for the info.

7:12 pm

oh I am not going to pursue this

I think Jacs that I pretty much told you what you already know. ;)

7:13 pm

how dare you was to Jac lol :P

7:13 pm

okay.

7:13 pm

Ata - exactly. Maybe we'll draw up a timetable of our activities for her, so she can approve them in advance. =)

7:14 pm

I think that's safest :P

7:14 pm

yay. cat left

7:14 pm

bye cat! was it Alabaster?

fireworks! thanks to all for Clues!!!!

7:15 pm

no, Feldspar. Alabaster's asleep on the chair beside me.

7:15 pm

congrats, red

7:15 pm

YAY red!!!!

7:15 pm

Cat left? Maybe it's out with my cat? Last I saw of him he was crunching up a sweet field mouse like I'd just seen on Autumnwatch.:(

7:15 pm

awwwww :)

7:15 pm

so. my younger son has his best friend staying with us over the weekend. Nothing like a couple of mid-teens being goofy as they peruse a take-out pizza menu!~

7:15 pm

Well done, red.

7:16 pm

and now dog is adding his opinions about what should be brought home... *sigh*

7:16 pm

Stid - you have my sympathy. I think I've got a similar scenariio to come on Sunday.

hello awesome babblers, I am missing an A. I have ai4 and 5, ap4, at4 and 4 and au4 and 6. what am I missing?

7:17 pm

oooh. except yours with girls *shudder* not sure which would be more challening!

7:17 pm

go terri go! ((((((many hugs))))))

7:17 pm

Why are you so drained, stid?

7:17 pm

Somewhere between 9-12 later, the Gas Board (not called that now) are delivering our new boiler, new rad, new thermostat and timer and other sundry stuff ready for the men who will be installing it all on Monday, starting 8am, and possibly Tuesday too.

aww ty (((hugs))) right back ( :

7:18 pm

Hi grammterri

hi Jac, good to see everyone w00t!

7:19 pm

stid - I've got a boy and two girls and I'm still not sure which scenario I prefer either.

7:19 pm

it was a LONG week, BR -- enjoyable, nice, but in a large crowd. Overstimulating, and hence draining. I am a small-cluster person (no more than about 5 or 6), not a big-happy-family type

7:19 pm

grammaterri - you can't say 'woot', enable doesn't allow it.

lol Jac, for sure

7:20 pm

down to 12....

7:20 pm

af 5, grammaterri

7:20 pm

I just sit in the back of room and practice the wallflower shuffle

7:20 pm

evening folks

7:21 pm

hey FEATHER!!!! wow.... so many people I don't get to see very often!

7:21 pm

btw, grammaterri - it's the af5 you are missing.

hi Heather, good to see you

7:21 pm

yes, I did that some, but really wanted to make an effort this week. NEXT week I intend to revert to type.

thanx Jacula, off to look

7:21 pm

:) sitting here, feeling lonely, figured this would be a good place to come!

7:21 pm

Someone comes into a room, senses something is going on and asks, 'What's af5?'

7:21 pm

hi feather!

7:22 pm

why lonely feather?

7:22 pm

thanks for the AF!

7:22 pm

doug's gone for his 2 week annual training again

7:22 pm

Aw feather. ((HUGS))xx

thanx Jac, I saw it right away, duh lol

7:22 pm

i'm fine, just was having that "i don't know what to do" feeling and it's too early for bed

7:22 pm

y/w both.

7:23 pm

oh -- want to write a small paper that is due on Tuesday? *eager to help mama look*

aww I'm listening to the Austin City Limits concert on Hulu and enjoying a babble

7:23 pm

oh, that annual training. Comes like clockwork, don't it?

7:23 pm

NOPE. but, gee, thanks for thinking of me.

7:24 pm

7:24 pm

hi Unea!

7:24 pm

i need to catch up on the faerie realms set a bit. maybe i'll do that after the grid.

7:25 pm

i have a dilemma

7:25 pm

what's that, dawg?

7:25 pm

dawg, did you have a hard freeze?

7:25 pm

de7/40?

7:26 pm

i was chosen for jury duty, and made the call in call. my case has been settled.

7:26 pm

well, boys know what they FREEZE???? what? where? *looks anxiously outside*

7:26 pm

shirloc, killing god(s)

7:26 pm

BR - no need to be a wallflower. Do you wanna dance?

7:26 pm

dawg's in the mountains

7:26 pm

wow. so now what, LBD?

7:26 pm

now my dilemma is, do i tell work this and be open for calls to come for work or do i just take the days off and get my class stuff ready?

7:26 pm

Hi lbd. What is the dilemma?

7:27 pm

days off!

7:27 pm

no hard freezes yet. but there is snow in the mountains

7:27 pm

dawg, they've never called me back for jury duty ever since I was the foreperson in a trial many years ago :-)

7:27 pm

ah that was the clue I caught the end of in the chog!

7:27 pm

days off, lbd.

7:27 pm

thx dcseain

7:27 pm

rofl... nice dilemma... but how would work feel if it finds out you didn't need the days off after all?

7:27 pm

thanks for the big DE word

7:28 pm

:)

7:28 pm

oh wow, belatedly caught that DE word, thanks

7:28 pm

how would they feel? they are unfeeling corporation, i doubt they'd say anything unless someone calls in sick and they need a warm body to fill in

7:28 pm

okay, down to TEN and can't list until I have NBT. how about the O on the far right? it's my last sticky one, and I am certain it is a fish

7:28 pm

stid - now how would work find that out and anyway the day off WERE needed.

7:28 pm

o + ***k Tracy

7:29 pm

didn't know if it was a BIG bookstore or the small, corner neighborhood kind.

7:29 pm

thanks Une

7:29 pm

thanks also LBD

7:29 pm

poetical word describing an o***, stid.

7:30 pm

Otherwise, it's the end of something tuneful or mel****.

7:30 pm

LOL see, I just KNEW it was fishy!

7:30 pm

okay, so i'll call in Tuesday and let them know I'm available Wednesday! lol

7:30 pm

that sounds reasonable, LBD

7:31 pm

to my little pea-brain anyway

7:31 pm

i like that plan, dawg

7:31 pm

I still have to teach monday and tuesday night, so i'm not totally off. but I love teaching

7:31 pm

lbd; what do you teach?

7:32 pm

I'm assuming fu4.13 has a place in the Babble dictionary because, as a Japanese word, it means something other than the mountain and the make of film.

7:32 pm

basic computers to veterans

7:32 pm

teaching = fun/good; store work = work/sore feet

7:32 pm

thanks for the f 4

7:32 pm

it's also a type of apple, jac

7:32 pm

Teaching is great if you are teaching those with a mind to learn.

7:33 pm

fa7?

7:33 pm

If not, it's a hard slog.

7:33 pm

teaching kindergarteners is great!

7:33 pm

down to 6, still listless, but lapping up clues like a starving kitten

7:33 pm

very true, Jac

7:33 pm

Shir - that's my icon clue. Click on me.

7:33 pm

fa7 pine is a fa*****

7:33 pm

well, these guys are all veterans from as far back as the Korean War, so their skills are from totally nonexistent to quite good.

7:33 pm

okay, have to head out and go get pizza. Back later to finish (boys elected to bring it home rather than eat at the pizzeria...)

7:34 pm

bye stid

7:34 pm

later, stid :-)

7:34 pm

(((((hugs all))))) see you soon! *poof*

7:34 pm

fa7 is obese + what trees are made of

7:34 pm

later, Stid!

7:34 pm

thx for the fa clue, never heard of that word

7:34 pm

bye, Stid. I'd send you some of Paul's home-made pizzas, but he's too busy coughing and trying to sleep to cook.

7:35 pm

doot is too a word. just ask mrs. robinson.

7:35 pm

it's a new one to me too, shirl

7:35 pm

LOL, feather.

7:36 pm

i knew about the fa7 'cause i see ads for it in magazines but it's actually dangerous -- can cause fires in your flue

7:36 pm

and yes i'm paranoid about fires

7:36 pm

I hadn't heard of it before either (fa7) but monkeyed it by accident. When I Googled it I found half the world calls it that rather than kindling.

7:37 pm

but...it's not fat, it's skinny bits!

7:37 pm

jac, it's very specific kindling like pine . . .

7:37 pm

really? wow

7:37 pm

oxymoron

7:37 pm

True, Une - pine heartwo4 is full of resin and can spit globules out very far.

7:37 pm

yup

7:38 pm

Hello all! Speaking of teaching a heard a teacher say something today to her kids that was like the sound fingernails on a chalkboard.I heard her say "sit down and do not do nothing!"It was all I could do to not go into her room & correct her in front of her students.

7:38 pm

The wo4 you normally burn has been dried out for a year or more.

7:38 pm

hullo. you know what else helps to start fires? the lint from dryers. roll it up and put it under some wood and it catches nicely (free too)

7:38 pm

yup, "seasoned"

7:38 pm

yeeks min!

7:38 pm

hey, dorens!

7:38 pm

uh oh. right into the pb with me,

7:38 pm

Hello Dorens! How are you? Welcome to the chat log!

7:39 pm

Hi Min. Maybe that teacher was just asking them to sit down and not be doing anything or listening to anything?

7:39 pm

looking for chocolate in the pb

7:39 pm

ok, my only zero box...the U please?

7:40 pm

up4 - swept up hair style

7:40 pm

That up 4/7 word is a fancy hair style featherbee.

7:40 pm

opposite of letting your hair down

7:40 pm

like in Mad Men :-)

7:40 pm

right jac, then she should have said "do not do anything"...unless she didn't want them sitting there literally doing nothing...wait...i'm confused...lol!

7:40 pm

ty

7:40 pm

Kids of today (oh heck, never thought I'd hear myself use that expression, seem to need constant noise and or entertainment. They have no idea how to stay still and just look and listen.

7:41 pm

I don't care what she was asking them to do. Double negatives are a HUGE pet peeve of mine!I hate them!

7:42 pm

double negatives go back as fare as Beowulf in English. They are VALID in English. The late 19th century latinate grammarians disliked them.

7:43 pm

English mostly prefers to avoid them, but they are permissible. In her case, it was emphatic

7:43 pm

Ah, didn't read it properly, too long as a proof reader who's been disappointed by so-called writers. I hate double-negatives, too. I must have edited your post as I read it.

7:43 pm

Hello all, no lickety today?

7:43 pm

rolo - list's in my profile.

7:43 pm

indeed not, rolo

7:43 pm

Thanks jacula!

7:45 pm

I'm like the grammar police and I always hear people talking incorrectly using bad grammar. I also hate it when people misuse subject verb agreements&when they say drove when they should say driven. I could go on forever about using bad English & bad grammar

7:45 pm

I assume they all sat down, some did nothing and others did stuff (as requested).

7:45 pm

20 left

7:46 pm

getting jac's list, thank you jac

7:46 pm

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

7:46 pm

minver, does that not allow for difference in register, say formal vs vernacular?

7:46 pm

Well, thanks minver, 5 left!

7:47 pm

Go rolotom go!

7:47 pm

Min - but the thing about the English language is that it's only so rich and versatile because it keeps growing and changing. So, though pedants like you and I (or is that you and me?) keep railing at the changes, the changes still occur.

7:47 pm

feather, yvm for list.

7:48 pm

Min - I'm more concerned about the disappearance of punctuation. Lack of punctuation could start a war.

7:50 pm

yvw. I meant, feather.

7:50 pm

pf4 -- that's a new one for me!

7:50 pm

well, jac, re: the punctuation, i'm very lazy in a place like this. sometimes i do, sometimes i don't. same for capitals. however, for anything remotely connected to work, i'm always proper. and sometimes, depending on who i'm talking to, i'm more proper here as well.

7:50 pm

is it bucketsful or bucketfuls?

7:50 pm

feather, that's a good explanatory example of registers of speech :)

7:51 pm

yup seain! it all depends on my audience and message.

7:51 pm

pf + letters 3 & 4 of an ancient r**n.

7:52 pm

That is another pet peeve of mine.I don't like spoken bad English&written bad English. I am always editing my husband reports he writes for work.Husband has terrible grammar skills; spoken and written!

7:52 pm

i think the latter, lbgawger, but i am not certain

7:54 pm

po5 please?

7:54 pm

feather - that's a bit like me talking/reading. My natural accent leads me to say bath rather than barth, grass rather than graas etc., but when reading out, unless the context is ther in the accent of the area, I tend to go for the vut-glass Southern UK vowel sound. No idea why.

7:54 pm

feather, latin plural of speaker's stand

7:54 pm

latin plural of the thing you might stand behind whilst giving a speech

7:55 pm

However, as a poet, I go with whichever sound suits my rhyming scheme.

7:55 pm

that's interesting jac!

Congratulations rolotom on fireworks! Good for you!

Goodbye featherbee! I'll see you tomorrow in the log!

8:03 pm

Anyone need and more clues?

8:04 pm

My husband thinks I need to get a clue,but no thanks

8:05 pm

It's gone quiet upstairs, so he's sleeping now, not coughing, but maybe I should still sleep on the sofa? Mind you, I might not be up by 8am, and then the men delivering the stuff for the central heating might find me 'exposed' whilst alseep on the sofa. On 2nd thoughts, I think I'll go to bed upstairs somewhere.

8:06 pm

Min - that's just him. However, if you need a Babble clue, let me know.

8:09 pm

whoooohoooooo FEATHER

8:10 pm

Oh, and a word of advice, Min - don't let your man drag you down. My first tried it and didn't succeed. My kids may wonder what I'm going to do or say next, but they will say I never let them down. They'll also say I never pretended to be superhuman, that I had faults and admitted to them and that I was a superhuman walking dictionary without which they wouldn't know half of the things they know now, despite their university education(s).

8:12 pm

I decided not to go to uni when I'd met my kids dad-to-be. Then I worked hard to get us a home, and so did he, then more hard work for a family home, despite him suddenly informeing me he didn't want a family,

8:13 pm

help with fa 7/60 pls

8:14 pm

My kids, when they got older, kept trying to get me to go to Uni, but I had no time when my daughter became ill and no money after the divorce.

I have a problem... At least £40 or maybe £60 has gone missing from The Money Pot yhat stepdaugher has seen me put the money her Dad gives me for her and for housestuff. I know I haven't spent it or taken it out. What do I do or say now?

8:33 pm

Hi all :-)

Hello BlueAndAmy! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

8:34 pm

Hi min, I'm great, thanks :-) yourself?

8:34 pm

Oooooo Jac... that's a tough one

8:34 pm

I did remark in a light-hearted and airy fashion that I was removing the last £20 note earlier and Beloved, said, 'Spent it al already?'

8:35 pm

Well, no, actually I klknow I haven't.

8:35 pm

any other siblings?

8:35 pm

does she ever have friends over?

8:36 pm

Are you just discovering this now Jacula or have you been thinking about it for awhile? Jacula, if you just discovered it now,then you should ask stepdaughter about it. Maybe ask your other half what you should do.However,that's a tough one to call though Jacula.

8:36 pm

Hello regis! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

8:36 pm

My son is still at home, but he earns more than either of us, Blue. My daughter's left home and she doesn't need the money either.

8:37 pm

Min - it's a thing I've wondered about for the past two weeks.

8:37 pm

Both de7/44 words are a past tense of de6/27 words

8:37 pm

because if she ever has friends over, you could sit her down as if you're confiding in her that you are concerned one of her friends might have taken it, and ask her what she thinks you should do... maybe if it appears you're instilling that much trust in her that it would never occur to you that she might have taken it, it'll motivate her to confess or at least it might "mysteriously" re-appear

8:38 pm

is that naive of me to think? I don't have any kids of my own...

8:38 pm

And that de 7/40 word is a person who kills God regis

8:38 pm

i have the 7/44 s

8:39 pm

I wish she would take herself out enough from thaty state of 'I've been plonked her because my Mum rejected me' to actually make some proper friends here. No, is thieving ha been done, it's her.

8:41 pm

hmmm.... that's such a difficult situation, Jac... yeah, I think min is right, maybe see what your other half thinks

8:42 pm

It's not the first time I've noticed the money from the pot disappearing. I didn't say anything to her Dad first time. Dificult subjject to broach, but yes, I think she is stealing.

8:42 pm

How old is she?

8:43 pm

She thinks I'm veru 'cool' and 'laid back' and that I don't notice stuff, but she's wrong.

8:43 pm

14, Blue.

8:44 pm

minveryork i am not getting the 7/40 de

8:45 pm

Next time he gives me the child allowance for her (which she thinks she is alllowed to spend), I'll put it somewhere else. Never had to hide money from their \Dad from my kids, but maybe a new approach is needed here.

8:45 pm

Remember Jacula that she is your stepdaughter NOT your friend. Proove her wrong about being cool and laid back, otherwise she'll just take advantage of you

8:46 pm

well, maybe you could set up either your webcam or something to unquestionably "catch" her in the act, then confront her.... but that runs a big risk of making her angry, not solving the real problems, etc. You could replace the $ inside with a compassionate note of some kind, hope to appeal to the little girl that's still in her, something like "if you need money, I wish you'd come to your father and me and talk to us about it..." ... or again, maybe i'm being naive...?

8:46 pm

Min - did I EVER say I ythought sh was my friend?

8:46 pm

Put"someone who kills God"in reverse dictionary and it is the first word on that list regis.

8:47 pm

No you didn't Jacula. I was just offering some advice.

8:48 pm

Blue - when her Dad gets over his mysterious cough which we hope isn't Swine Flu, I'll tell him straight that she's been steaaling money, or thhat I think she has.

8:49 pm

Min, okay re step.x

8:49 pm

Here I made it easy for you regis.Just paste this link into your browser http://www.onelook.com/?w=*&loc=revfp2 &clue=someone+who+kills+god.

8:49 pm

Good luck, Jac :-/

8:51 pm

k gotta go check on dinner... be back later :-)

8:52 pm

Incidentally, sep did say that I scare her when she annoys me. She thinks I've 'shouted' at her. As my kids said when I told them that, 'SHE HAS NO IDEA!. Pis our Mum off and then you won't knoiw what hit you. Best education any chuild can have. Both o them said that.

8:53 pm
