Hi everyone - just popping in to do a few words

1:33 am

hi, anike!

1:34 am

Just a little grid today - hopefully won't take too long

1:36 am

hi anike! Should go quickly for the likes of you!

1:36 am

Fireworks for me now

1:37 am

woohoo, jilli!!!

1:37 am

Congrats jillibus

1:37 am

Pretty birdhouse, rbud, and rosy too :)

1:38 am

Thanks -- any clues needed?

1:38 am

ty - I want a Martin house like your icon, lots of mosquitos here

1:38 am

ah, but read to the end of the write-up!

et8 - does it build off the 5?

1:39 am

but I want a mansion, lol!

1:39 am

yes, faith

1:40 am

same ending as the ge 8

1:40 am

rbud, I hope you got the revised version of the write-up

1:42 am

I guess so, it says no elaborate mansions needed - but I want one, anyway. :)

1:43 am

well, I am east of the Rockies, so maybe I do need one, right?

1:45 am

sorry, rbud, I had added a bit to the write-up but forgot to save it -- it says "And it seems that like all swallows, martins feed on insects flying high in the sky, whereas mosquitos stay near the ground, so that's another myth discounted!

1:46 am

oh, pooh, then I'll have to concentrate on bathouses, maybe. :)

1:47 am

no harm in having both?

1:49 am

true that! we need all the help we can get.

1:50 am

There's a good article I googled on attracting purple martins, if you're serious

1:53 am

I got a radial mitre saw for Valentine's day a couple of years ago, been working on small wood projects, would be a good one, I think.

1:53 am

I looked as if there were lots of plans for the houses when I googled

1:54 am

*it looked . . .*

1:54 am

neat!

1:56 am

but it's very important to pick the right site for the house

2:01 am

I'll keep that in mind, ty

2:02 am

well, last call for clues -- time I went to bed

2:03 am

late flip. gimme 91 clues, jilli! :-)

2:04 am

LOL, freep!

2:04 am

*reaching for the troll spray*

2:05 am

fine. 89 clues. I handled the second row :-)

2:05 am

why, expecting one, jilli? lol!

2:05 am

rbud -- here's the website I went to: http://purplemartin.org/main/mgt.html

2:06 am

rbud, it was freep with the "gimme 91 clues"

2:07 am

I know, just kidding! Thanks for the link, looks very interesting

2:07 am

at the bottom of that web page are diagrams for siting a Martin house

2:14 am

well, down to 3, and getting tired of searching...off to Lickety

2:17 am

and fireworks! nite, all! (thanks again, jilli!0

2:17 am

morning dear all

2:17 am

OK, really off to bed now -- night all! *poof*

2:17 am

oops, tired... whoucl have been a ) at the end

2:17 am

YAY rbud!!!

2:17 am

hello, sprite, see how bad I'm typing now? grrr!

2:17 am

*unpoof* -- Hi sprite!

2:18 am

very well done, rosebud

2:18 am

*hugs jilli on her way to bed*

2:18 am

I like your lighted birdhouse, very nice

2:19 am

not me, rosebud, I am way too happy to see you to notice any typos

2:19 am

thank you!

2:19 am

funny haha bird writeup, sprite :)

2:20 am

:) well it IS a bit silly to illuminate a birdhouse, isn't it. I like your icons too, jilli and rosebus.

2:21 am

I just dropped in to Facebook for a minute and saw that Monkey's Walter got hit by a car and has a broken leg -- is in hospital having had successful surgery and she is staying in the room iwth him

2:22 am

oh dear... fate never stops hitting them, does it.

2:22 am

One thing after another, it seems!

2:23 am

I hope Walter gets well soon. Probably will, children often heal speedily.

2:23 am

And how are things with you today, spritey?

2:24 am

just cancelled therapy, jilli, am feeling sick and the world is spinning around me. But emotionally I feel ok.

2:24 am

how has your day been?

2:25 am

morning everyone

2:25 am

sheesh, sprite -- you get your share of knocks too!

2:25 am

morning Katie!

2:25 am

hi katie

2:26 am

sometimes it feels that way, jilli, but when I give it some serious thought, I have to realise that some minor virus isn't half as bad as a child with a broken leg and surgery. I am a blessed person, with all the love and good people that surround me.

2:26 am

My day was fine -- big windstorm here (and rain) -- flosey lost power for 5 hours but I was ok. All ferries have been cancelled and lots of people are stranded

2:27 am

But sprite, you get too many viruses

2:27 am

whew, that is some storm. Imagine a powerloss of 5 hours when you want to babble ;) I hope everybody is fine.

2:28 am

Oh yes -- her power came back in time for the flip.

2:28 am

I do, jilli. My resistance to illnesses is virtually non-existant. I hope the vitamin D3 that Scrabbler suggested will improve this, along with other things I am trying.

2:29 am

I hope they work really well, sprite. Enough is enough with being sick

2:30 am

Well, I must repoof now -- have a good day, everyone!

2:30 am

bye jilli take care

2:30 am

my doctor says it is a kind of loop. I am always in a lot of pain and due to the ptss I am always in a state of nervous awareness. That eats away the energy. Then I get sick, hence less energy... etc.

2:30 am

*repoof*

2:30 am

sleep well, dear jilli!

2:31 am

fireworks

2:31 am

wtg anike

2:31 am

congrats anike

2:32 am

TY - and I must away - mother is expecting me

2:32 am

PB

2:32 am

that saves you a trip to the sin bin, I guess ;)

2:35 am

Do you mean me sprite?

2:35 am

I do!

2:35 am

mo6/24 is one of the words you found in the grid today ;)

2:36 am

Was that for mentioning a word I shouldn't have- I'm very apologetic and will try to do better in the future

2:36 am

?

2:38 am

I've confused you now - we are typing at the same time I think. Sorry for all my sins. Must go and do that visiting now. happy babbling

2:38 am

don't know about any sins, bye

2:44 am

Hello everyone....especially Sprite. Lovely to see you

2:44 am

hi lyn :) And vice versa! How've you been?

2:44 am

hello lynxxx, how are you this lovely day?

2:44 am

I have been well Sprite, you?

2:45 am

Hi Katie, how are you this morning? better or worse

2:45 am

got some bug, I think, but otherwise I am good!

2:46 am

really very much better, can't believe it, woke up this morning and it is like the storm has broken. If I feel this well tomorrow I will be off to work :-)

2:46 am

gad you are not in the UK, they are all coming down with the dreaded lergy a.k.a. swine flu

2:46 am

wow Katie, that is good news!

2:46 am

Stay at home Katie, they don't expect you till Monday do they?

2:47 am

I know I'm still in shock about how bad I was yesterday and relatively how well I am today

2:47 am

whatever this bug is, it isn't anything asbig as that. Just some minor virus, I'd say. People are very panicky about the swine flu.

2:48 am

I must admit I will take it slowly, might go in for a short day to break myself in, but will take a view 'tis still very eary so will see how recovery progresses!

2:48 am

sounds wise, Katie. Giving yourself an extra day to get your energy back up might be nice too.

2:49 am

and on that note I am going back to bed for a little bit, see you all later

2:49 am

get fully well soon, katie

2:50 am

lol, bye Katie, enjoy the sleep in

2:55 am

hi lady

How are you?

2:55 am

hi Infernal

Howdy back

3:00 am

my phantom for today is nefertiti... which wouldn't be valid anyway

hehee

3:05 am

wow, finally got the ending for the biggies :)

3:05 am

same ending for both? I have one

3:05 am

yes

3:06 am

TY

3:06 am

yvw lyn :)

3:08 am

and that makes fireflies. Any clue i might help with before I go?

Yah Sprite. Sorry distracted on the phone

3:08 am

Congrats Sprite! not for me thanks, the other 8 was enough

3:09 am

then I am off! Have a great evening/night and day, and enjoy the babble :) *hugs*

3:09 am

Have a good day Sprite

3:12 am

BBL

Second ro/4 please

3:18 am

Differs from the first only in the last letter, changing from a vowel to a consonant.

TY Haz 1558.

3:20 am

You're welcome - good morning/evening.

3:30 A.M.

3:21 am

There's no acceptable greeting for that time!

Can't sleep, so babble

3:22 am

It seems to be the story for a lot of people, rumple.

Hello again

3:24 am

Hello, herin.

How are you all?

3:25 am

I'm well, thanks.

back soon

3:34 am

See you later.

3:34 am

Morning Haz et al

3:35 am

Good morning, FM!

3:35 am

Hello hello, another blustery day here, starting to feel like hibernating.

3:36 am

It's pretty blowy here as well. Lots of rain forecast for the west over the next few days.

3:37 am

Am putting off going out but will have to shortly :(

3:39 am

I don't mind the cold so much as the wind and the rain. There has yet to be anything invented that can keep your hair dry but not flatten it - umbrellas don't count!

3:40 am

LOL yes, I know what you mean!

3:41 am

although my hair goes very curly when it gets rained on.

3:41 am

Remember those sixties hairdryers that put a sort of hat over your head, the idea being that you could move around while the hair was drying?

3:41 am

am sporting some lovely Shirly Temple curls in my fringe at the mo.

3:41 am

am sporting some lovely Shirly Temple curls in my fringe at the mo.

3:42 am

I remember Mum had one of those.

3:42 am

I need some sort of inflatable bubble round my head. My hair's so thin it just flattens immediately when covered.

3:42 am

Or maybe I should just do a Hilda Ogden and sport the curlers and head scarf.

3:43 am

LOL or get a wig?

3:43 am

There's a thought.

3:44 am

can't picture you as Hilda, curlers and ciggie and don't forget the pinnie.

3:44 am

And the singing. Never forget the singing, that little high-pitched voice.

3:45 am

Oh I had forgotten the singing, she was a great character! and the flying ducks :)

3:45 am

It's only when you saw Jean Alexander being interviewed as herself that you realised what a fine actress she was.

3:46 am

absolutely.

3:47 am

I never really liked her character in 'Last of the Summer Wine' but that was maybe because I thought it had kind of outlived its usefulness a bit.

3:47 am

Never really got into that programme.

3:48 am

Can't put off going out any longer - will have to run errands and then babble later.

3:48 am

It was fun in the days of the original old codgers, but it started to get a bit worn out.

3:48 am

I'll maybe see you and your Shirley Temple curls later.

3:49 am

*grin* Thanks for the chat

3:49 am

I'm off to RDA soon - can't think the curlers and head scarf will go down well there!

3:49 am

Bye FM!

3:49 am

Bye have a good session at RDA

3:49 am

And bye to everyone else - happy babbling.

3:50 am

6:07 am

good morning everyone;)

6:07 am

Good morning cross

6:13 am

t

6:21 am

i had a terrible dream that there were only 5 words in the grid. well, it is small today but at least it isn't THAT small.

6:22 am

That wasn't a dream that was a nightmare lol

6:23 am

indeed.

6:23 am

******* FIREWORKS************

6:28 am

You know it's a slow day in babble chat when you go away for over two hours and your last entry is still to be seen in the log.

6:28 am

i think babble chat is slower on average every day than it used to be

6:29 am

Hello, hurshy. Yes, it seems to be quieter on British mornings/Australian evenings than it used to be.

6:29 am

Maybe we've just run out of things to say.

6:30 am

odd, when there's all these words staring us in the face.

6:30 am

And smaller grids don't encourage people to hang around, that's another angle to consider.

6:30 am

we can talk about bacon;)

6:30 am

clue on the one E and the one T plzzz and ty

6:31 am

the smaller grids have always had less chat but i feel like for months there has been less chat overall too.

6:31 am

et5 - puts you to sleep

6:31 am

maybe the global economic situation has got everyone depressed.

6:32 am

crossy checks his deoderant..;(

6:32 am

I think you're right about less chat in general.

6:32 am

Deodorant working fine, crossy, just wondering if anything more can be said about bacon. Or is that heresy?

6:34 am

I think people who have babbled for a long time maybe chat a little less than they did before, whereas newer babblers are still taken by the novelty of the whole thing.

6:34 am

picked up a new computer the other day the msi wind ae 1900 touch screen.just use google for a review,but i highly recomend one;0

6:34 am

and some people who used to chat a lot just don't come round anymore

6:35 am

Was it something we said?

6:35 am

was it crossy,s dirty limericks? lol

6:36 am

(Devoutly hoping we don't get a sample by which to judge!)

6:36 am

dont worry haz,too early for that and ive yet to have my first cuppa

6:36 am

people just get busy sometimes. i mean, i have chatted much less in the last two years than in the years before that because i work full time now and i didn't then.

6:37 am

ok i have to be blind cause i dont see the et5...

6:37 am

I just think that babble chat kind of comes and goes a bit and there's not a lot to be done about it. As you say, life gets in the way and you realise that a huge amount of time spent on a word game can't always be maintained.

6:38 am

et5 - old fashioned type of anaesthetic.

6:38 am

hello all

6:38 am

A letter sort of the t6 that ties up a horse.

6:38 am

howdy sue

6:38 am

Hello sue.

6:40 am

well how about that it just reached out and smacked me lol

6:41 am

Glad it got you, in a manner of speaking.

6:44 am

just read your earlier post haz and i think your right on the nose with the chat thing

6:44 am

tente

6:44 am

ooopppsss

6:45 am

Hello sandr - you used to chat more, haven't seen you in ages!

6:45 am

still playing just havent got as long for my dinner anymore thats all

6:46 am

goto go now speak again sometime t.t.f.n

6:46 am

So, it's either eat or find words? No choice to be made, food wins.

6:49 am

ugh, too many t's and r's, i can hardly see

6:50 am

Bye sandr, nice to see you.

6:51 am

They're a bit over-represented.

6:51 am

maybe the should have an un-tea-party

6:51 am

*they

6:52 am

easy there, brits - last time you all threw a tea party with us bostonians, it didn't end that well!!! LOL, and good morning!!!

6:53 am

Good morning, Trif!

Hello, Dorens.

6:54 am

doing my usual grabbing as many words as I can in ten minutes before flying out the door.

6:55 am

gewd mornin

6:55 am

the ge, does it work with the ge7?

6:55 am

only etymologically

6:55 am

The ge makes a nobleman/rich person out of somebody.

6:55 am

i got a ge5

6:55 am

It works with ge4.

6:55 am

Good morning, reen.

6:56 am

I second that

6:57 am

hey duh ready straightacross row 2 :P

6:57 am

hurshy, do you see words in your head?

6:57 am

did anyone else have trouble getting established on babble today? I couldn't get the site to open for about 30 minutes. Telling you, I was starting to have palpitations!

6:57 am

doesn't everybody?

6:57 am

Well, tell me this, do you see words as people are talking?

6:58 am

morning, all -- yes, trif, i did -- happens from time to time . . .

6:58 am

yes, haz!!

6:58 am

i did trif

6:58 am

clue for the lone t in the last column please

6:58 am

and I remember that eons ago when I took a typin class I would type conversations in my head :-)

6:58 am

*typing

6:58 am

hmm... i don't know... i don't think so, but maybe sometimes

6:58 am

You see, I do all the time and apparently not everyone does. I have a kind of inner transcipt thing which is fine except when you're in a crowd and the conversations get mixed up.

6:59 am

clearly money well spent une, ha ha ha!

6:59 am

*transcript

6:59 am

:-D

6:59 am

tr4/4 comes from there

7:00 am

hey! my first half is in the grid today!

7:01 am

tr4/4?

7:02 am

i think i only do if it's a particularly cool word and then i start thinking about it. i do know that when reading, i am very into the way words look and stuff, and that hearing something read aloud is different to me than seeing the words on the page. written words, when they're well-written or old favorites, are ... caressable

7:02 am

....epitome

7:02 am

oops i got it hehe

7:04 am

which tr4/4? :(

7:05 am

does this tr 4,4 have any vowels in it?

7:05 am

yes just 1

7:05 am

It has one. It rhymes with the fr4 that is worried about being part of a guitar.

7:05 am

that's not from the lower T

7:06 am

note it is the T in the far right second from top

7:06 am

i have that, but it does not come from that lone T

7:06 am

There's also tr4/7

7:06 am

Which I think is from the lower t.

7:06 am

Nothing like leading people astray, is there?

7:06 am

No..it is the ti6 that comes from that one..

7:06 am

t + umpire is also upper, if that's the one you mean

7:07 am

its the middle T i believe

7:07 am

no, also not from lower t

7:07 am

thats what i meant hursh

7:07 am

Then it's the jaunty ti6.

7:07 am

ti6 sounds more believable

7:07 am

I used to be better at this....

7:08 am

good morning, babblers, here for a few minutes....

7:08 am

jaunty... jaunty...

7:08 am

oh, yes, there it is! Torgone is gonna be SO delighted!

7:08 am

Hello, JBV.

7:08 am

it's not impish... hmmm

7:08 am

Combine a bird and a backward umpire

7:09 am

oh yes, ti6 tat!

7:09 am

zomg there is 4 of these on a car Ti4!

7:09 am

The one!

7:10 am

ok, well, i have to go to work - thanks for that one and see you in a bit!

7:10 am

bye hurshy

7:10 am

Toodle-oo hurshy!

7:10 am

gads, enable drives me nutty! why is "senor" an enable accepted word, but not "herr?"

7:11 am

Qui sait?

7:11 am

dont forget your _______ER words :D

7:11 am

hurshy hint Ti6?

7:12 am

Shouldn't 'helter' be a word, as in helter skelter

7:12 am

ti6 - start with a bird (blue or great or coal), (three letters), last three letters are an umpire written backwards.

7:13 am

ty haz :D

7:13 am

ty Haz

7:13 am

You're welcome.

7:15 am

he said something that sounded like "new hoe"

7:16 am

wow i just realized the lack of words in this.... hint on the 8s?

7:17 am

Both 8s have the same ending. Make a peasant into a noble for ge8 (extend the polite man) and et8, using the anaesthetic is the other.

7:17 am

I am so stuck on the fo 7. What am I not seeing?

7:18 am

fo7 - a compound word, as sported by animals.

7:18 am

Think limbs, Merk.

9:07 am

Haz you have a future in vaudeville.

9:07 am

nm the plane just got delayed

9:07 am

apparently all the air traffice controller computers were out for an hour this morning

9:08 am

good thing I got here early

9:08 am

They provided me with quite a laugh over lunch - they were taken from a book of worst student howlers.

9:08 am

is there a gh?

9:08 am

No gh.

9:08 am

aaah brb

9:09 am

how was RDA?

9:10 am

Very wet! Thank goodness we have an indoor arena.

9:10 am

nm they are boarding again

9:11 am

very lucky!

9:12 am

Soggy ponies probably smell worse than soggy dogs, and that doesn't bear thinking about.

9:12 am

ewwwwww no!

9:12 am

soggy spaniel was bad enough this mornig

9:13 am

I've not ventured out yet with Spangle, it's really horrible.

9:13 am

poor unloved dog!

9:13 am

That's a great name haz!

9:13 am

I chose the name before I had the dog, if that makes any sense.

9:14 am

what was your dalmatian called? memory lapse ...

9:14 am

apart from loopy mad bat dog

9:14 am

It was to pay homage to sweets or candies that we used to have over here. 'Spangles' are but a memory.

9:14 am

g

9:14 am

Polka was our Dalmatian.

9:15 am

Otherwise known as the Bimbo dog, beautiful but dim.

9:16 am

very original name :P

9:17 am

Husband gets the credit - He would have liked Domino but it sounded too masculine for a female dog.

9:17 am

they aren't the cleverest of the dog bunch, are they? but sooo gorgeous

9:18 am

No, not clever, but lovely to look at and very affectionate. But the hairs! Daily clouds of hair every time she breathed.

9:19 am

spaniel brains must have been a nice surprise!

9:20 am

It really was! Spangle knew what you meant when you threw something -i.e. bring it back to me. Polka just thought you didn't want it anymore.

9:20 am

saying that, hobbit's never cottoned on to that one! she does the fetch thing brilliantly, just not the bring it back ...

9:21 am

But at least she's got the message that she's supposed to get involved.

9:21 am

definitely

9:22 am

http://faildogs.com/ - so funny!

9:24 am

ti6?

9:25 am

ti6 tat!

9:26 am

They're great. I love the one of the two collies trying to squeeze through the catflap.

9:26 am

some are obviously put together digitally, but the majority are just hilarious

9:26 am

hm, i tot i taw a ti6 tat?

9:27 am

They're really good.

9:28 am

Have you seen the advert featuring an incredibly dirty golden retriever? It gives me the horrors seeing the pristine room being wrecked.

9:28 am

yes!!

9:29 am

Bye bbl folks. Got to work a little.

9:29 am

my nice clean white duvet cover underwent a similar transformation earlier. It now contains half the beach

9:29 am

Bye hego!

just here for a bit before work

fore

tore

9:29 am

I feel sorry for the dog, though, it just looks so disgusting.

OOPS there I go again

9:30 am

And proving that you're finding the words! hello Kaplan.

9:30 am

Phone...

9:30 am

dogs love looking disgusting ...

9:31 am

Even so. It's going to have to have a major bath.

9:32 am

Phone was no 1 daughter wanting a lift home from the garage.

9:32 am

major bath!

9:33 am

I can't imagine why she doesn't want to walk home for a few miles. It's not like she doesn't have a coat on.

9:33 am

youth of today ...

9:34 am

But I suppose I'd better earn brownie points for my Christmas present and pick her up.

9:34 am

No stamina, Ata, no sense of independence at all.

9:35 am

can't you tell her you're busy discussing important things!

9:35 am

You'd think so, but she thinks babble is frivolous.

9:35 am

even more outrageous

9:35 am

I've raised a monster.

9:36 am

make her take Spangle out in revenge

9:36 am

I blame her father.

how old is she haz?

9:36 am

did she have to sleep in a kennel too?

9:36 am

She's 25, science.

i teach rather impetuous people...overly sensitive and self-entitled

9:37 am

That's where I went wrong, Ata, she was allowed to sleep indoors. It's given her ideas above her station.

lol

is she an only child?

or the youngest?

9:38 am

I think so. Tell her she has to build her own kennel, starting today

9:38 am

No, there's her and my other daughter who's 22, as unlike as can be.

9:38 am

Anyway, have to go.

9:38 am

Bye!

bye haz

9:38 am

she's really very lovely, science ;)

well, i am on edge today because of one of my lovely students

someone told her she was a princess far too many times

9:39 am

urf!

9:40 am

I'd never be able to be a teacher. I'd smack them all

i just keep thinking about how much I was I could transfigure them LOL like in Harry Potter

I wish I could ATA

9:41 am

aaah back

9:41 am

I *would*! I have no patience with people who refuse to learn

9:41 am

at least with my undergrads I could tell them to go away and get out of the class!

it is not only the apathy, but the attitude

I wish I could send them out. Of course, dealing with rich spoiled brats one can only imagine how delightful their parents are to deal with. Everything is the teacher's fault.

9:44 am

any1 know some of the real tough words i need 3 more 6s still D:

reen4 not there yet

9:45 am

ick. ick.ick. I couldn't deal with that! you're an angel!

One little witch got her feelings hurt yesterday because I told her she needed to get focused.....She whined to her aunt (her guardian) and I am certain she has whined to the principal. She just barged into my class a few moments ago looking for another student (I am giving exams today). Rude little bi5

9:48 am

yeah ... you're a *teacher*, you're there to *teach* them, and not just how to add up, but how to be people

All of these students have so much drama in their lives. Some have had drug issues, deaths of drug addicted parents, etc. They use these as excuses for their bad behavior and expect everyone to make concessions to them

concessions for them...sorry. If I get "called" into the principal's office for this stupid girl, I will likely raise hell

9:49 am

not good enough. everyone has issues.

i am at the end of my patience. I teach 8 classes per day without a lunch/planing break - straight through - and teach all the summer school science classes - and am paid very little. I am the science dept. bi5 because I am new

9:50 am

is not having a lunch break even legal??!

i am the dumping ground - oh and that is 4 preps

yes because this is a private school

9:52 am

gah!

9:52 am

hmmmmm i think sum1 is a wee bit angry today

9:52 am

I'd faint and have a medical emergency from lack of food. Then they might give you a lunch break

9:53 am

or just fire him...

the owner is an uneducated redneck sexist who lucked into buying the school some years ago. kids pay 23K per year

You bet!

I am tired

9:53 am

and to think you volunteered for all this.

That is more than I paid for my college education

No kidding Knight....

9:54 am

hehe knight

3:41 pm

hands up all those who just tried to put in kaplan's last word

3:49 pm

Not me! I am much more clever and knowledgeable to try such an obvious non-word as to be completely absurd. Besides, I already tried it ..

3:50 pm

yeh1

3:52 pm

SSSHHH isn't it quiet her tonight?

3:53 pm

sorry, new laptop and 2 glasses of red don't help thedyslexic fingers

3:56 pm

3:56 pm

bye mummy

3:56 pm

hi wolvie, bye wolvie!

3:56 pm

:-)

3:57 pm

I thought vodka might help, but now I'm not sure lol

3:58 pm

maybe it was the stuffing. lol

3:58 pm

stuffing, potato, potato liquor - total carb od. ;-0

3:59 pm

absolutely :D

4:00 pm

we just have nothing like stovetop here. it was an amazing moment a few years ago when I had it in the US :P

4:01 pm

i imagine it was - things like that are so funny tho. ;-)

4:01 pm

I know!

4:01 pm

I always laugh when americans are so amazed we have wild hedgehogs here

4:02 pm

i know folks who make that stuffing for the big turkey day - it does have it's merits i suppose

4:02 pm

it's yummy! :P

4:02 pm

our stuffing is vile, and I mean VILE, compared to it

4:02 pm

well - i knew that - not that i think about it much, lol

4:02 pm

yep - nothing like salt! ;-0

4:03 pm

what was with the PB debate? what is your PB like? I've never had any when i've been over the pond

4:03 pm

yours is foul LOL

4:03 pm

but I couldn't tell you *why* the difference

4:04 pm

think yours is sweeter

4:04 pm

everything in the US is sweeter!

4:04 pm

oh i know that - it's why i make so much of my own stuff - that and labels. lol

4:05 pm

I hate super sweet things. and if you have an FP, peanut butter is absolutely no problem

4:05 pm

a good fp, i should say

4:05 pm

I can't eat Reese's pb. It's just so sickly

4:06 pm

i will have to make you dessert sometime over here - you will like my stuff.

4:06 pm

yours is probably more like UK pb I would think

4:06 pm

reese's makes pb? i know they have that dreadful candy, but i didn't know they made straight pb

4:06 pm

well, reese's pb candy gloop!

4:06 pm

ahh - my Mom revolted on me a bit with my pb at first, now she loves it

4:07 pm

those icky little candies are my mom's little secret. she adores them. like i said, we all have something!

4:07 pm

ours is in no way sweet, I guess that's the real difference?

4:07 pm

my sister adores them too

4:08 pm

most likely. I didn't have any pb whilst in england or france

4:08 pm

there's no way you could put our pb in candies

4:08 pm

which must taste very odd to you guys I suppose!

4:09 pm

oh i bet you could, choc covers a lot of stuff - even bacon? speaking of bacon, have you seen crossy lately??

4:09 pm

saw him this morning, briefly

4:09 pm

not to me - i don't eat desserts i don't make. unless i am at a very good restaurant

4:09 pm

cool beans - i call him streaky bacon now. ;-)

4:11 pm

clue for the singleton n - middle column?

4:12 pm

4:42 pm

hello all! bye wolvie

4:42 pm

stiddy!

4:52 pm

sorry, BIG computer lag for a moment. Going to take Lucky for his annual shots in a few minutes. how are you?

4:54 pm

just found out I got 90% for the evil bogs assignment

4:54 pm

evil bogs assignment? for your grad program?

4:55 pm

hurray! apparently the idiot professor took 5% off for each word he thought I'd got wrong - he literally questioned *2 words* in the assignment

4:55 pm

yep!

4:55 pm

why 90%?

4:55 pm

ha. NBT and only up to 39!

4:55 pm

yay!

4:55 pm

oh gee, Atalante! that's a harsh grader!

4:55 pm

the prof doesn't like me cos I told him his dataset was crap

4:55 pm

good for you for doing so well!

4:56 pm

and I've just handed in the next assignment so I have a few days rest now :):)

4:57 pm

oh no! the power flashed again! I lost my connection briefly. Will go shut things down again and back later if the winds go away.

4:57 pm

ick! still horrid weather?

4:58 pm

nice to have some rest, eh? I have been resting a bit this week -- the synthesis paper gets handed back with suggestions on revision tomorrow, then a week of no classes so I can work on it in peace before the last two weeks' push.

4:58 pm

Yes, BIG storms in the Pac NW, one after another. Flosey was without power yesterday too -- ours died just past 11 and didn't come back until about 5 this morning. Luckily Tom and I have alarms that are battery powered!

4:59 pm

any way... allons-y! *wicked grin* poor puppy won't like this vet visit, but should at least be quick. I hope.

4:59 pm

phew! it seems awful from BC to Oregon at the moment

4:59 pm

(((atalante))) have a lovely evening. See you again soon I hope.

4:59 pm

poor baby!! be brave Lucky!

5:00 pm

*poof*

5:32 pm

Hello, all.

5:49 pm

Watching Huey Lewis on the Bonnie Hunt Show ...

6:15 pm

May I please have a clue for the single T in the right hand column?

6:15 pm

Guten Abend, gang. I am totally disgusted with sudoku. Spent all day on it and still no solution. In need to be consoled sigh

6:16 pm

its ti6.27, car

6:17 pm

trying to think how to clue it

6:18 pm

6:19 pm

Now I have NBT! Off to choir rehearsal I go! BBL!

6:20 pm

bye car

6:20 pm

you could say it sounds like Ti6/27 tat!

bye car, hi everyone else

6:20 pm

hi fuq

6:21 pm

bye car

apparently that's exactly the origin, car. rhyming slang meaning "hat", rhymes with ti* *or tat!

6:22 pm

jo fuqua, I tried to get its definition and the computer balked, said it could lnot display that page, haha

6:24 pm

this morning I lurked a discussion between Haz and Hurshy about how little chat is going on, the morning. Same here, I guess

7:04 pm

7:04 pm

ss

7:04 pm

yes i do!!!

7:05 pm

i can find the cubic feet online, but if your present is unsmushable, that doesn't help much.

7:16 pm

everyone go to sleep?

7:16 pm

I am here but just got home so I am in the grid. How was your day Jen?

7:16 pm

I have one.

7:17 pm

pretty good, i made quota

7:17 pm

Hello Fellow Babblers. Is this grid friendly or nasty? (Not that it matters, I just started) :-/

7:17 pm

What are you trying to fit.

7:17 pm

hi nef!

7:17 pm

do you see the obvious word, nef?

7:18 pm

pretty friendly so far Nef. I made it to half way without any trouble...

7:18 pm

Hi Jen. there's an obvious word?

7:19 pm

Thanks, Bugsaw

7:19 pm

yeah, staring right at you, nef

7:20 pm

lots of words seem obvious at first; it's the words at the end that are hard to find

7:20 pm

it's five letters long

7:21 pm

LOL, Jen; I've already found several.

7:22 pm

i'm taking second row down

defs for the 8s?

7:22 pm

Sorry, Esprit; I don't have them yet

7:33 pm

7:35 pm

7:36 pm

7:36 pm

et8 is to convert into the et5

7:36 pm

HI lbd. How was your day?

7:37 pm

hi Jen, Hi Bugs. my day was okay. cold and icky outside tho. how was your day?

7:37 pm

Wet and soggy but gots lots done so that feels good.

7:37 pm

busy at work

7:38 pm

mission accomplished! i like those days too.

7:38 pm

busy is good. better than sitting around trying to look busy.

7:39 pm

some days I feel like I haven't stopped but nothing is completed so it feels like my effort was for naught

7:40 pm

i hear ya, bugs. i didn't feel that way all that much in teaching, just in the paperwork end of it.

7:42 pm

paperwork is what I was referring to lbd. lol

7:42 pm

ahhh, but the job aint dun til the paperwork is. bah!

7:45 pm

oh dear, i went away

7:45 pm

reese's are you still here?

7:45 pm

the item i want to fit is 52 x 31 x 14

7:46 pm

drat, she has logged off

7:46 pm

whatcha fixin' hursh?

7:52 pm

heelo ??

7:54 pm

HI DR. How did it go for you today?

7:55 pm

Hi Bugs- I am ok. trying to spend time with Jacob

7:55 pm

how are you?

7:56 pm

That shouldn't be hard. He is a neat kid and I'll bet he has all kinds of things going on in his head that you can hear about.

7:56 pm

hi DR. back in an hour. BONES is on shortly.

7:56 pm

I am good. Just tired because the week is almost done and the work isn't quite done.

7:57 pm

Hi again. Got lost on the internet; checking stuff out. I'm back again.

7:57 pm

yes, he does indeed. The school thinks he is depressed

7:57 pm

but he was crazy funny today

7:57 pm

Hi Nef

7:57 pm

Hi DR

7:58 pm

Depression shows itself in different ways in kids. I am glad he was crazy funny. You both need a good laugh!

7:58 pm

thanks Bugs!

7:59 pm

right now he is talking about TS Eloit- Cat poems and andrew Lloyd Webber

7:59 pm

is jacob your son, DR? (being nosey)

7:59 pm

yes NEf- he is 10- 11 in January

8:00 pm

that's a fun age.

8:00 pm

An educated guess is that he is so much brighter than the other kids his age that he feels different in a way that he thinks is negative. Things will change for him. Depression never stays for life.

8:01 pm

yes Bugs- He was having problems with a group project in class becasue he felt excluded... but his teacher is very in tune to the class

8:01 pm

I love working with kids like him because I was like that when I was young too. I felt like a weird kid instead of a very intelligent kid.

8:01 pm

His teacher said the same thing Bugs

8:02 pm

It is nice to see them interact because they "get" each ot5

8:02 pm

is he involved in any groups (ie: cub scouts, etc?

8:03 pm

he is bowling and karate and is in the guitar group at school

8:03 pm

Having a compassionate person who thinks you are wonderful because of the way you are different is such a gift. He is a lucky boy.

8:05 pm

I feel grateful for his teacher. He sings karaoke , teaches them frisbee and ballroom dance for PE and talks to them at their level.

8:05 pm

He told me he was a shy loner kid when he was in school

8:06 pm

It's hard though too. My son was (still is!) ADHD and very bright. He had his worst times in senior high, though

8:06 pm

anyway- so how are you Bugs

8:07 pm

I am good. First anniversary of my father's death tho and I am sorry that the grid isn't harder tonight to keep me from going back a year.

8:07 pm

it is hard Nef. ALl I can do is continue to be positive

8:07 pm

ADHD kids have a hard time all the time in school but in high school it is so much more important to be cool.

8:08 pm

that is rough Bugs! The holidays are hard enough without reminders like that. I hope your memories bring you comfort. (HUGS)

8:08 pm

and keep reminding him how his differences will be an asset too.

8:08 pm

Yes Nef- High school is hard on everyone even if they arent ADHD

8:08 pm

They do. He was a wonderful man and I was happy to be with him when he passed. Gently.

8:09 pm

my son's now 30 and has the young mans' dream job: he's the QA supervisor of a video gaming company & can play video games all day long! :-)

8:09 pm

I have a hard time from Halloween to Jacobs birthday which is January 8th.

8:10 pm

LOL NEF_ Jacob wrote a letter to Bowling Green about admissions because they have a degree in digital arts

8:10 pm

and he could learn to make video games

8:10 pm

Your son certainly lucky out Nef! My ADHD son did not have the perseverance to make it thru high school.

8:10 pm

Bugs, that is so good that you could be with him when he passed. Remember the memories and the wonderful things in life that you learned from him

8:11 pm

Do you have SAD DR? I do and eat my breakfast in front of a special light that helps so much!!

8:12 pm

Bugs, we went through 4 years of HELL (drug abuse, trouble with the law, stupidity and etc) before he got his head straight.

8:12 pm

No Bugs- I had a still birth 2 yrs before Jake was born so I tend to get depressed around the holidays

8:13 pm

I miss my son like you miss your Dad

8:13 pm

{{{DR}}} That is so hard.

8:14 pm

Thanks Nef. It has been12 years but sometimes, it creeps up on me

8:15 pm

Probably why Jake is the way he is because we put him first.

8:16 pm

Anniversary stuff... It is so hard to to accept a death of someone who had such promise. My Dad was 96 which makes me grateful for the length of time we knew each other.

8:16 pm

hey

8:16 pm

AH- hubby is home

8:17 pm

Hi daboss

8:17 pm

Thank you both for your kind words. Life is an adventure!

8:17 pm

Hi and Bye daboss- I will try to bbl!

8:17 pm

Your supposed to put your kids first DR> No shame please

8:17 pm

Most of my family has died around thanksgiving through to the end of January; and I have a weird way of looking at this time of year. To me, this is a special time of year *because* it reminds me of all of them!

8:18 pm

hi bugsaw

8:18 pm

hi daboss

8:18 pm

hi nef

8:20 pm

Exactly Nef. You have such a good attitude. My Dad was born around Canadian Thanksgiving and died now. Because last year was so stressful during this time I had lots of anniversary memories too. I actually expect to feel better after today because I have gone a year now so all the firsts will be done

8:20 pm

Does that make sense?

8:21 pm

it does, Bugs.

8:25 pm

This may sound really weird; but each year when I send out my Christmas cards I write something along the order of: we give thanks to all who have gone before us and how this time of year reminds us of all of them. I always feel like this is a very hallowed time of year because I sort of feel their presence now. Does *that* ake sense to you?

8:29 pm

(I killed the chog with that idea, I guess)

8:30 pm

has anyone got the 8 letter word?

8:33 pm

there are 2 Swag. I don't have either, but someone clued 1 as being et 8

8:34 pm

ah grasias

8:37 pm

Sorry Nef. You did not kill the chog. My cats were begging for food and it seemed like a good idea so I got something for me too. I like your idea of reminding people to give thanks for people who have touched their lives!!

8:37 pm

ge8. both 8's have the same ending.

8:37 pm

to make gas is et8

8:37 pm

fireworks.

8:38 pm

thanks, mixi

8:38 pm

YAY, mixi!!!!!!

8:38 pm

well done mixi

8:40 pm

thanks for the same ending clue mixi. I got the g one from it.

8:41 pm

hi all

8:42 pm

good evening babble friends! (((((JMC))))))

8:42 pm

HI jmc. How are you?

8:42 pm

hi i'm fine

8:43 pm

and Trif and whoever else is lurking.... Hi everyone

8:44 pm

hi jmc. Good to see you!

8:44 pm

hi Trifi

8:45 pm

ty nef good to se eyou to

8:46 pm

how's things going for you?

8:46 pm

okay

8:47 pm

{{{jmc}}}

8:47 pm

i once went to a christmas eve midnight service where they had that idea about remembering those who went before - but they listed them all by name, and let me tell you, for a small church it was a very long list - there must have been at least 4x as many dead people on there as there were living people attending the service. it took like a half an hour to read all the names aloud. guess it just goes to show you can have too much of a good thing.

8:47 pm

:-)

8:48 pm

it is an kenyan custom i understand, hursh

8:48 pm

well, this wasn't kenya, just an episcopal church in new england.

8:49 pm

LOL, hurshy. Some churches have some sort of "remembrance books" that people sign and write the names of those who died in the year; but I've never heard of anyone *reading* the names out loud!

8:49 pm

we did it once in my quaker meeting

8:50 pm

i thought having it in the bulletin was nice but the reading aloud was toooo much - esp after midnight!!

8:50 pm

my church has a book; but we have over 3000 families in my parish. Can you imagine how long that would take?

8:50 pm

yikes! nef

8:51 pm

i need scrabbler.

8:51 pm

What? The size of the parish; or the length of the book of names?

8:51 pm

we have a small church, just 150 or so, and we do something each year for All Saints Day, november 1st - sometimes its a slide show of those who have crossed over, sometimes it is a different rememberance. it means so much to the families of those who have gone before

8:52 pm

it makes sense tho. I am only one person but so many people have influenced my life in a positive way.

8:52 pm

what's up, hurshy? I could call my mom, if it is urgent....

8:52 pm

our yearly meeting calls out the names of those who died that year

8:53 pm

no, it's not urgent

8:53 pm

help with the he7 and te7 please

8:53 pm

when my husband had his gall bladder out last week they told him there was some kind of mass on his kidney, probably just a fatty tumor, nothing to worry about. they did a CT scan or something today and tonight he's been reading up on kidney masses and feeling confused by the different info.

8:54 pm

the number of dead with the size of teh church

8:54 pm

My home town parish was maybe 100 families, and they never read the names either because it was an older parish and the lists would be too long.

8:54 pm

don't have them yet regis, sorry

8:55 pm

hurshy, did they say what type of mass it was?

8:55 pm

they didn't say anything today when they did the scan, cause it was just the techs and radiologist, and they don't ever tell you stuff, they leave it to your PCP or whatever

8:55 pm

he 7 is the person who gets the estate in probate (with out the initial in)

8:56 pm

jmc, when we moved to this parish, our old church had something like 100 deaths and 3 births that year and this new church had the exact opposite: 100 births and 3 deaths

8:56 pm

oo got it jmc !

8:57 pm

go bug go

8:57 pm

they had only seen it before on an MRI or ultrasound or something - not live during surgery (cause it was laparoscopic)

8:57 pm

yesterday we had the reception for my mother's memorial in the church where i grew up

8:58 pm

but the neighborhood had changed so much that 4 churches had merged to have a decent size congregation

hello everyone. how are you je?

8:58 pm

oh dear, hurshy. I can imagine that would worry him

8:58 pm

got the te and thanks for the help with the he7

8:58 pm

i feel sure there is nothing wrong but hard to convince him

8:59 pm

see my clue at 8:55 regis

8:59 pm

last word....te6/18 (second)

8:59 pm

hi TO

8:59 pm

You should take a few days off from the world jmc. It is entireley justified.

9:01 pm

some types of fatty tumors are called lipomas, hurshy. They really are just a large glob of fat. I'm hoping and praying that that is all it is

9:02 pm

jmc; you *NEED* a day off. Your body is telling you that (with that cold)
