1:25 am

want any more clues?

1:26 am

2:21 am

partying?

2:21 am

my regular Friday games night, then several of us went to the diner afterward.

2:21 am

i'm letting the food settle before i sleep

2:22 am

sounds like fun. I was at my neighbours' with their daughter and a girlfriend of hers -- we played wii games like ski-jumping and obstacle course. I was hopeless.

2:23 am

wii gets easier as you do it more

2:23 am

my four-year-old nephew is just beginning to get the hang of it, much to his seven-year-older brother's dismay

2:23 am

:)

2:24 am

I guess so! Then when I got going with Babble Victor Borge came on PBS so I spent a lot of time laughing. I never get tired of him -- this show was excerpts.

2:25 am

:) Victor Borge is always fun, agreed

2:25 am

He also plays the piano rather well ;)

2:27 am

And I must betake myself bedwards. Nice to see you. Happy babbling and *poof*

4:01 am

4:01 am

Good morning all. Happy birthday, ruby!

4:01 am

hello haz

4:01 am

hello sprite

4:01 am

thank yu haz

4:01 am

4:02 am

ah is it your birthday? Happy birthday ruby

4:02 am

morning Haz

4:02 am

ty sprite, yes, so far, it's lovely!

4:03 am

I'm afraid I can't stay, I'm getting ready to go out. Enjoy the day, ruby and many happy returns.

4:03 am

ty ty

4:03 am

have a nice day, Haz

4:03 am

is it grey and "ashy" there?

4:03 am

not here, it is clear and sunny

4:04 am

I will! The sun is shining here as well.

4:04 am

here, too, but we are much farther south

4:04 am

very enjoyable

4:04 am

The ash cloud is very high up - we managed to get some flights out of Scotland and Northern Ireland yesterday, but restrictions are back in place.

4:05 am

Anyway, off I go - enjoy the grid and the day. Bye!

4:05 am

I think the news shows make it much worse

4:05 am

I think the ash is more of a problem for the planes than for the people. We don't see much of it.

4:06 am

I put on a skirt today for our lunch out and I think it's the first time all winter!

4:07 am

that is lovely, and that on your birthday. It is a gift. Did hubby spoil you?

4:08 am

he's taking me to a beautiful restaurant on the lake, perebise. I think it has a website....

4:09 am

isn't inee an Amazon poson?

4:09 am

that is sweet!

4:10 am

I don't know

HI. sorry i got distracted

4:10 am

hi lady

4:11 am

lol I was thinking of you yesterday. Was gaming and had to kill a load of infernal mages.

4:11 am

they were NO ladies!

4:13 am

It was coined as a loan translation of a German word that implies that the dead are sown to yield a Resurrection. What phrase is it?

4:14 am

hey BabbleRabble, so happy to see you. It's been a long time. Are you well?

4:14 am

hello BR ??????

4:14 am

Answer: God’s acre The word was coined as a loan translation of German Gottesacker, from Gott (God) + Acker (field). It denotes "a cemetery" but it implies that the dead will be resurrected.

HI BR

4:15 am

that's lovely, BR!

4:15 am

ah! I'd never have guessed that. It is the same in dutch: Gods akker.

4:16 am

see you later, 37 to go!

4:17 am

have a grand birthday, rubyfoo

4:17 am

BabbleRabble, good writeup too. Thanks.

Have a fantastic day Ruby.

HOw are you all?

4:18 am

Hello. I have been attempting to manipulate the synapses again .... with the usual rather arbitrary side effects and body rebellion .... think I have run out of patience with being a guinea pig

4:19 am

shaken and slightly disturbed today, lady. But the weather is lovely and I intend to make a good day of it nonetheless.

O no Sprite :( BR time to fight back no more guinea pig

4:20 am

I recognise the feeling, BabbleRabble. Another spin in the no-so-merry-go-round. Should things have settled by now?

4:21 am

*not-so-merry

4:24 am

Yes .... not so bad an attempt but nothing much accomplished as far as engendering epiphanies of useful relevations

4:25 am

that is very disappointing compared to the bumpy ride.

4:27 am

any chance some epiphanies might pop up after a longer period of use?

4:33 am

Who knows? I have told the psychiatrist I think my brain has been irretrievably deformed and wants no more of "scientific speculation."

4:35 am

not wanting any more scientific speculation would seem pretty healthy to me. Very sucky that all the energy and frustration of a new spin did not bring a bit of balance or peace of mind.

Tell them you are fine the way you are stop poking me

4:37 am

I am okay, sprite .... I have been trying to help at a mental health forum ..... I got all spiffied-up for my picture.

or tell them that they get paid enough to put labels on illness

4:39 am

I think it is amazing you are willing to help at such a forum. You will be able to do so much for others. I'd wish there would be that kind of support for yourself.

4:40 am

only, lady... being fine and feeling fine aren't exactly the same thing :(

4:42 am

Is the little lion still a source of joy?

4:44 am

oh yes! His innocense and playfulness make us smile no matter what. He just came home after a thorough roll with a de4 goose, yuck! But when you could see him, so happy with his own smell... we all laughed.

4:45 am

and put him in bath straigthaway of course

eww

4:46 am

my daughter had not been able to get to him soon enough, so he had a ball until she caught him. You can't believe the smell!

4:46 am

be well, folks

Feel better BR

4:47 am

you too, BabbleRabble. Will think of you.

Sprite how big is Terra now?

4:50 am

his shoulders stand a little under my knee and he weighs about 8 kg.

wow

4:52 am

he is perfect. Very slim and fit.

that is good

I am waiting for dinner. I am so hungry

4:54 am

he deserves no less. His knees might suffer if he was overweight, it is never healthy for the rest of him either, right. We want him to stay happy and with us for a very long time

4:54 am

awwww lady! How much longer?

no idea waiting for the pizza guy.

4:54 am

Morning everyone

What do you feed him Sprite?

4:55 am

hey movie my man

4:55 am

Sprite......nice to know you're on Facebook

Hey Movie

4:55 am

he gets high quality dog fo4 especially for joint problems.

4:56 am

movie, I must admit I never go there :( Sorry.

4:56 am

every now and then we give him a piece of fruit or vegetable. That is it.

I tell you though people say to me why do you spend so much on them but cheap f d is Macdonalds for kids

4:57 am

exactly lady. That is my thought as well.

Well it costs about $40 -$50 for 2 months which for 2 cats is great considering the crappy food at $1 a can x 4 a day

5:01 am

oh you know what Terra loves? After a long walk, especially when it is warm, he loves to get an icecube.

Frozen Peas are great when they get warm

5:05 am

fireflies! Small and smooth but with a couple of nasty words. Thanks for the chat, all, and have a great day and/or a relaxed evening.

Yah sprite take care

5:41 am

7:49 am

oh no Scrabbler!

7:49 am

not nice

7:50 am

We were warned that this was to be a wintry weekend--cold + rainy yesterday, colder today.

7:50 am

"struggling to get up to the 40s" is what i heard here. tomorrow might get near 50.

7:51 am

doh....i think i have add...i come in...i disappear....i come back...i disappear

7:51 am

But our Sabres are playing the Bruins at 1 pm so that is today's focus, with laundry and cleaning.

7:51 am

Hi Nut

7:52 am

Hi Nutty dear!

7:52 am

crock pot question. i'm doing a pot roast type thing. says 5-6 hours on low. will it be ok if it's in there 7 hours?

7:52 am

hey hey baby cakes

7:52 am

feather...7 hours will improve it

7:52 am

brb...need my tea

7:54 am

awesome. it's a fabulous recipe. top round steak, matchstick carrots, sliced mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix.

7:55 am

indeed feather...it sounds so. the extra hours should only make it more tender provided you have enough liquid in the pot

7:55 am

with 24 left, I must leave. I wish you all a good day. {Hugs} to all of you

7:55 am

great, thanks!

7:55 am

8:02 am

Anybody have the Q word?

8:03 am

hi jmc

8:03 am

i am going out to buy a netbook so I can travel more easily

8:03 am

hi annie

8:04 am

I have an Acer Aspire One--works great for me although I do not like the directional pad.

8:04 am

no sorry scrabs

8:04 am

for the most part, yes. i still use firefox for one game, tgjrtrmmncxzax

8:05 am

I have Firefox on my netbook, Chrome he4 on the PC.

8:05 am

I have the qu but I screwed up the clue so badly I shut up. but here goes...qu + 2 vowels + **d, white and blue

8:05 am

how is chrome? I use firefox all the time

8:05 am

TY, Annie.

8:06 am

ty annie that worked for me

8:07 am

FF 3.6 was causing major problems--crashing, disappearing, etc, despite removing + reinstalling. I have kept 3.5 on my netbook and not upgraded. The FF forum included many others that were struggling with 3.6.

8:08 am

hmmm i don't seem to be having those problems with ff 3.6

8:08 am

Annie, I just spoke with Mary's husband--the "baby" is ill. She is 2.5 yrs old. He called me yesterday.

8:08 am

JM, it must be extensions or add-ons that certain users have.

8:08 am

i can't say I am enamored with it since it added so much stuff i don't care about

8:08 am

What is wrong, Scrabbs?

8:10 am

Fever, rash, loss of appetite, diarrhea--sounds viral, but Grandma + nanny and all of us get frantic when the kids are sick.

8:10 am

:-( sick babies

8:10 am

I love FF--esp the All-in-One-Sidebar.

8:10 am

i like ff too

8:10 am

We don't want anything else bad to happen to these kids since their mom died.

8:12 am

Scrabbs, I reacted badly at hearing Mary's baby is sick. I dont want anything else to happen to that family. I will pray for the little one.

8:12 am

If Mary were he4 she would be calling me a few times a day about this sick little one.

8:12 am

8:14 am

8:14 am

i'm really liking the bookmarks bar, but the sidebar makes it much easier when i play a certain game that has me visiting several different pages frequently. so i go to FF for that one. plus that games uses a greasemonkey script to help keep track of things, and chrome doesn't have it.

8:14 am

doh!!!

8:14 am

yeah, i started typing, went to do the crock pot and forgot to hit enter, he did a bunch of letters after what i typed and hit enter

8:15 am

8:35 am

Hi Peri

8:35 am

Never thought I'd get a word knowing where Scrabs works. lol

8:35 am

Hi Peri

8:35 am

hi hego, who is that in your icon?

8:35 am

That's hubby, Peri.

8:36 am

Just finished singing in the photo.

8:36 am

Hi hego

8:36 am

very nice, hego. maybe I will get to meet both of you this summer once I buy a new(er) car

8:36 am

Hiya Sea

8:37 am

hi hego

8:37 am

That would be great. How's the car shopping?

8:37 am

Hi Annie, How goes the new tv?

8:37 am

I looked at some hyunai elantra's last week. not sure whether to buy new or used. also like the Honda fit

8:38 am

Great, hego

8:38 am

I suspect that I will only buy used cars in the future.

8:38 am

It's great to get your first flat screen. A whole new world.

8:39 am

why is that Scrabbs

8:39 am

I have a TV that I bought in 1992.

8:39 am

Peri, I had a Civic and it was a great car.

8:39 am

New cars are so costly.

8:39 am

hego, Yes a new world opened and I have HD also so the pics are sharper.

8:39 am

I gave it to my nephew and he still drives it. It's a 1998.

8:40 am

they are, Scrabbs but you are potentially buying other people's problems with a used car

8:40 am

Bobby's TV is an oldie but it plays very well.

8:40 am

I thought of a Civic, but I think the fit is less costly and it is cute

8:40 am

I would get a certified, pre-owned from a car dealer.

8:41 am

Good idea Scrabs.

8:41 am

My car is a 1999 Taurus and "knock on wood"

8:41 am

my father just had hernia surgery and doc said if he didn't get there when he did..he could have died in an hour

2:16 pm

2:17 pm

Oh my! - that is horrible for both of them Joanne, sorry to hear that

2:17 pm

hernia was choking an intestine

2:17 pm

2:17 pm

My prayers to you and your family,Joanne

2:18 pm

strangulated hernia. Atrue emergency!

2:18 pm

He made it, should be happy, no?

2:19 pm

I can imagine - my dad was like that before he passed away several years ago. Work hard all your life and to go out that way - sucks

2:19 pm

at least he still has his life - always a chance

2:19 pm

Nancy honey, how many stitches?

2:19 pm

Tell Mom all about it

2:19 pm

well mom they waited 4 months before they started treatments

My Dad died at home of old age. He was a diabetic but thank god there wasn't a serious illness

2:20 pm

He has been gone 9 years now

2:21 pm

a very neat twelve, Mom! Was very cringe-worthy getting it done, worse than the tattoo, but it actually looks pretty hardcore now ;)

2:21 pm

sorry boo

2:21 pm

2:21 pm

my mom 10 years now

Now, what happened to NB's hand?

2:24 pm

deserves lots of hugs hego - let him tell the story

2:24 pm

LOL Mom - exactly! Leo is being all cute and concerned. There's been bandage-fights aplenty...

2:24 pm

Last I heard he was about to be reunited with Leo at the train station.

2:25 pm

that story hasnt been told yet.....

2:25 pm

Cut it on some broken glass at work, Hego! - I'm the most inept bartender ever ;)

2:25 pm

what story is that, Mom? :)

2:25 pm

You weren't juggling bottles and glasses, were you?

2:25 pm

whilst saving the very good looking customer from bodily harm as the glass was flying across the bar......

2:26 pm

whew i was getting kinda scared to hear the hand story

2:26 pm

are there 2 de6?

2:26 pm

yes

2:26 pm

yes there are wild cat

2:26 pm

Thankfully not, Hego, or I'd never live it down!!

2:26 pm

k ty

2:26 pm

2:27 pm

Can you work?

2:27 pm

Hiya Ruru

2:27 pm

hey ruru

2:27 pm

hi hego! and all

2:27 pm

hiya mom

2:28 pm

hi ruru

2:28 pm

hello NB

2:28 pm

this is a much nicer grid than yesterday's

2:28 pm

hi joanne..

2:28 pm

LOL Mom - not that either, sadly ;) I stupidly stopped a stoned-looking older guy from hitting a bemused-looking younger guy in the face - you're supposed to wait for the bouncers but I didn't. D'oh. Stopped it by shoving my stupid hand in the way!

2:28 pm

I haven't seen you for a while

2:28 pm

hi, Ruru! :)

2:28 pm

ouch nb

2:28 pm

*hitting a younger guy in the face...with a broken glass. His hand didn't just splinter on contact with mine! ;)

2:29 pm

Ouch! NB

2:29 pm

Ohhhhh - a hero.....***big smooch***

2:29 pm

but hero

2:29 pm

IT wasn't Mel Gibson was it?

2:29 pm

I know Hego, my most heroic moment!

2:29 pm

LOL Jo. pinky wish

2:29 pm

hehe

2:29 pm

a million dollars hego??

2:29 pm

Sounds like a rough place to work, my dear.

2:30 pm

we can split it

2:30 pm

(if it was Mel.. good thing you are jewish)

2:30 pm

Okay Jo, you got it.

2:30 pm

LOL Mom! He shouldn't have been let in...he was flying on something and he's a bit notorious in the area.

2:30 pm

hello and how's the grid today?

2:30 pm

It's a rough place to live, Hego ;) it's just the all-male environment...there's no women to control us!

2:31 pm

so so harp

2:31 pm

pretty friendly. hiya Harp

2:31 pm

no women???

2:31 pm

Would I have been alright as a buddhist, Ruru? ;)

2:32 pm

so what do guys do when there's no women around, scratch themselves and belch?

2:32 pm

it's sort of an all-male establishment, Mom...;)

2:32 pm

fireworks

2:32 pm

not sure how Mel feels about buddhists

2:32 pm

and that was the prob nb... no women

2:32 pm

YAAAYYY!!! Boo!

2:32 pm

wtg boo congrats

2:33 pm

got you NB

2:33 pm

(that's what women do when men aren't around Harp.. I think I heard that from my Montana friend)

2:33 pm

woohoo to Boo

2:33 pm

Any clues before I go join Hubby?

2:33 pm

LOL Harp. Oh you'd be amazed. It's funny, because fixed in my ways as I am, it's made me very sure that women are actually holding society together. There's not a whole lot of fights, but if you get unwanted attention, it's a lot more difficult to put people off, so tempers and emotions run pretty high

2:34 pm

go enjoy hego and have a great nite!!!

2:34 pm

< that's this cute Hubby<

2:34 pm

I was the only woman in a union for ten years. It was by far the most back-biting, dysfunctional. gossiping place I ever worked!

2:34 pm

go hego go - enjoy your evening

2:35 pm

good work Hego ;) have fun!

2:35 pm

what are the fights about NB?

2:35 pm

ty Jo. Have a good nite all. Stay out of trouble NB. lol

2:35 pm

byeeee

2:35 pm

Exactly Harp!

2:36 pm

the same as anywhere else, Ruru - just too much attitude. A fight can break out you accidentally shove someone! There's a lot of egos that dislike being dented, too.

2:36 pm

nb if u don't mind me asking...are you Chinese??

2:36 pm

how many letters in the bottom row n?

2:37 pm

no4 don't be so no...

2:37 pm

Course I don't mind, Joanne! But no :) My family is from South Korea - there's lots of them still living out there. I was there until I was four, and then we moved to England - something I'm very grateful for!

2:38 pm

thanks

2:38 pm

is there still "no fly chaos" in northern europe, nancy?

2:38 pm

I wish I could be lucky enough to be stranded on a trip to the UK!

2:39 pm

my heart is with you

2:40 pm

with who, Joanne? :)

2:40 pm

you

2:40 pm

I'm not sure, Harp! Partly because we're two poor young men, so the only way we're living this country is by swimming ;)

2:41 pm

well, today that would be more efficient than flying....

2:41 pm

well thank you :) I'll take all the love I can get! ;)

2:41 pm

swimming?

2:42 pm

people are people we don't chose who we are.. we just are

2:42 pm

down to 12 but need a break - maybe see you all later - ((((hugs)))) to NB as always - bye everyone

2:42 pm

sure, Harp, but the luggage might cause an issue...I'm not very good at travelling light. The only time I've ever managed to leave with less than two suitcases was when I got kicked out!

2:42 pm

bye mom

2:43 pm

((((Mom)))) take care of yourself, Mom :)

2:43 pm

well, I think I'll go spray paint a shot put now. bbl

2:44 pm

bye harp

2:44 pm

have fun, Harp!

2:45 pm

Joanne...I couldn't agree more. Wouldn't trade my situation now for anything, though :)

hi youse

2:45 pm

as long as you are happy nb

what's the topic of the day?

2:45 pm

Well thanks Joanne! :') wish my parents could see it that way, but I have a brilliant boyfriend, lovely friends and more than enough parents here on babble ;)

about the duck gang bang?

2:47 pm

I think they were a gang those ducks...

yes it was wild

2:48 pm

nb it's like ritual i think

2:48 pm

rulers or something

my computer faces out on a little lake and I love all the wildlife that comes and goes

2:49 pm

chinese are the same and that's why i asked about your background

2:49 pm

I've got to say, Esprit...I'm curious!

about the ducks?

2:50 pm

funny how parents don't have the same bond as others

2:51 pm

g'day all... another beautiful day outand I'm indoors working. :(

2:51 pm

oh yes about the ducks Esprit ;)

2:51 pm

it's interesting Joanne...I think it's partially my fault, because obviously, growing up, I had this massive secret to keep. So, by default, I ended up pulling away from my family...they just put the final few nails in the coffin

2:51 pm

how old are u nb??

last Saturday NB, I saw a gang of about 8 males ducks surround one female and take turns on her

they wouldn't let her go

never saw that before

if I could have reached them I would have smacked them all in the head

2:52 pm

nb no way... don't sell yourself short..don't blame yourself for being you

2:53 pm

OMG Esprit! Wow, can't remember the last time I saw a duck. Living in London means some pretty rough pigeons and little else

2:54 pm

if they didn;t see it ,i am shocked, not something you can hide

I have seen them one on one, the female is under water while the male has at it

but this gang was quite something

2:54 pm

And Joanne...I'll be 20 soon! Which still feels weird...I'm about five on the inside.

growing up is overrated :-)

2:54 pm

well you can be one of my kids anytime

2:55 pm

I'd "adopt" you too nb ... you sound like a very put-together young man

2:55 pm

(((Joanne))) that's the best thing about being here - I feel like the collective child of babble!

2:55 pm

more so than a lot of teens these days

NB have you read any of the horros stories coming from Africa about their treatment of gays?

*horror

2:56 pm

i have a 21yr old boy who does nothing and a daughter who is 23 and had to buy a townhouse for her to rent to keep her out of my house

2:56 pm

oh god, Esprit, no - people can do some shocking things though - what's been happening?

it's muslim driven

2:57 pm

HELP! down to 1 for fireorks - de6/24 (not the one that rhymes with the planet) - please??

they beat and kill people they believe are gay

2:57 pm

some kids don't know how lucky they are to have a good parent like you, Joanne

but the worst

is there have been episodes of digging up the bodies of recently burried gay people and desecrating the bodies

what the hell is WRONG WITH PEOPLE?

2:58 pm

under arm stuff mostly

2:58 pm

I ask my self that almost every day jean

2:58 pm

nb at work they say i am too kind

it's more than I can stand

2:59 pm

I am in the same spot bojazz

2:59 pm

but i love my kids

2:59 pm

ohh i am a bitch when i have to be but.. i love them the same

3:00 pm

God, Esprit!! It just astounds me how being gay can inspire such anger in people...I had a teacher in secondary school who described it as a "victimless crime". Crime?!

I know NB it's infuriating and disheartening

3:00 pm

well that's what makes a good parent, Joanne - being tough when you have to be, and unconditional love!

3:00 pm

that is so wrong nb

3:01 pm

Bugs - i ain't figured it out yet :(

how do these "ultra religious" even try to justify themselves to God?

3:02 pm

nb my son had himself locked in the basement for 3 years and is now talking to us

3:02 pm

but i still told him what i expected of him and he did it

Racist homophobes suck.

Racist homophobes suck.

3:03 pm

now if hubby said something, he would ignore him

3:04 pm

I don't know, Esprit - the scary this is that people will do absolutely -anything- if they feel it's justified. It's chilling, because they're unstoppable.

3:04 pm

locked in the basement, Joanne?! why?!

3:04 pm

lol not locked but wouldn't come upstairs

3:04 pm

bojazz, it has to be den... but I can't find anything anywhere. Feel like giving up

3:05 pm

anti social he is

3:06 pm

i have to tell his friends just to come over

3:06 pm

Bugs - de + a smell, use different second vowel

3:06 pm

wasn't homosexuality still classified as a disease until quite recently? we should have all called in gay to work. "sorry, can't come in, still queer"...

3:07 pm

nb funny thing is he is so smart, he built his own computer

lol

3:07 pm

his own computer, Joanne?! that's incredible! God, I can barely WORK mine...

3:07 pm

lmao and he's building speakers now

3:08 pm

ohhh, hello Kaplan!

3:08 pm

hi kap

Hey!

3:09 pm

he is very talented but doesn't do nothing with it

NB is going to be 20?

3:09 pm

Bugs - did you get it??

3:09 pm

yes when nb??

3:09 pm

NB, that's hysterical...and yes, it was classified as a mental illness until recently.

Hi Ormal- how are things in Wordsplayland?

3:10 pm

no pun intended but how gay is that

3:10 pm

July 11th! If I was still living in Korea, I'd have my coming of age day pretty soon. Adulthood...how terrifying

3:10 pm

I go there when I get some time, Kap, but have been quite busy here lately. :)

Adulthood is fine- look at all those people committing adultery.

3:11 pm

do u remember Korea nb??

3:12 pm

Very naughty Kap.

3:13 pm

nb are u th5??

No, he is older than that.

3:14 pm

who??

3:15 pm

A few scattered memories of living there, Joanne - very few though. I remember toddling around outside during a monsoon and getting soaked through! Parents were not best pleased, lol

NM.

3:16 pm

and oh yeah, I'm he4 ;)

afternoon babblers

3:17 pm

Hi all

hi wht

3:17 pm

th5 is a guy a work who is gay and he is the bomb..like my best girlfriend..is that ok to say???

3:17 pm

Hi GE, Wht :)

3:19 pm

ohh maybe not??

3:19 pm

Lol Joanne - of course it's okay to say! sorry, I was typing one-handed ;)

3:19 pm

ohh the glass thing lol

3:19 pm

(I've heard it all from my parents - you'd have to go pretty far to offend me :P)

3:20 pm

omg nb he is my sister for sure

3:21 pm

really nb..were they that crude??

3:21 pm

i couldn't imagine

what a weird

oops

weird weekend,i was saying

3:22 pm

not exactly crude, but...I don't know. They made their feelings very clear, and when someone makes it plain that they find such a central part of your life completely disgusting, it's offensive!

3:22 pm

weird weekend, GE? why's that?

well, we live in really average suburbia but there is some low income apartments a few doors away

apparently they found something in the dumpster late yesterday afternoon and we have had cops all over the place

they just came to the door again to see if we heard or saw anything yesterday

3:25 pm

nb and all, i must go...my grandbaby is he4 and he is sweeter then ever

pretty freaky

bye joanne, enjoy!

3:26 pm

tyvm

3:26 pm

awww Joanne - take care!

3:26 pm

OMG, GE - what did they find?!

3:27 pm

byee nb we shall talk again

3:27 pm

by joanne

weeeelll i'm reluctant to say, but it was bad

i just found out by looking a the local paper online

i have to hope the violence did not occur here and that someone just decided to dispose of it here

3:28 pm

gosh - stuff like that can really shake you up :/

my teenagers seem to be dealing with it but my 10 year old had trouble sleeping last night - frankly don't blame her

3:31 pm

yes, horribly upsetting! How awful to have that happen near you

phone bbs

3:42 pm

apparently we all eagerly await the next installment of GE's story

3:43 pm

hi, back again - Nancy Boy, I caught the end of your post yesterday - how's your hand????

3:43 pm

hello again - oh my

3:44 pm

oh, hi JBV! It's okay now, thanks - got an impressive line of stitches though!

3:44 pm

lol Jmitch - just what I was thinking!

3:44 pm

and Mom, welcome back! :)

3:44 pm

sorry to hear about the stitches - but glad you're ok

3:45 pm

thanks NB

back. sorry nb i was so caught up in my own drama i didn't realize you had some of your own!

3:47 pm

thanks :) the only pain is not getting them wet - went into the shower with a bread bag over my hand! and had to call for help with hair washing!

3:47 pm

so what happened GE - we are all babbling with bated breath

3:47 pm

oh no, GE, I'd say yours far exceeds mine!

3:47 pm

sitting here listening to Cop radio (internet is great).....a man and woman are apparently fist fighting in a cemetery

3:47 pm

bet that was fun NB

3:48 pm

lots of giggling and splashing, Mom. I'm alright, I'm 19 - Leo's 24 and should know better ;)

3:48 pm

lollllll

i was going to say, hair washing is so sexy!

i'm envisioning out of africa

3:50 pm

Jmitch - that's so bizarre!!

3:51 pm

bets on the woman

3:51 pm

Haven't seen that, GE - I'm envisioning a lovely scene along the lines of that scene in Ghost with the pottery.

3:51 pm

LOL Mom!!

3:51 pm

I won't take that bet....women don't fight fair!

3:52 pm

I love Ghost

phone again

3:52 pm

and what is fair????

3:53 pm

GE will be very popular tonight with all the friends and neighbors

3:53 pm

same, Mom! I was so sad when Patrick Swayze died

3:54 pm

someone's popular GE ;)

3:54 pm

Hi all, me too NB, loved to see PS dance

3:54 pm

just came in to change icon for tomorrow

3:55 pm

Hi, Flosey!

mom you are right. neighbors all comparing notes

details are getting more gruesome :(

3:57 pm

bear in mind GE, some people tend to exagerate and embellish such details

very true flosey

3:58 pm

ugh, GE :/ yes, I agree with Flosey - there's being informed and there's being over-informed...

3:58 pm

but what a horrid thing to happen in anyone's neighbourhood

3:58 pm

ohoh, hubby needs me to help with laptop

3:58 pm

bbl

3:59 pm

Jmitch - if you're still here, how is that warring couple getting on?!

no one ever accused me of being overinformed before, i'm usually struggling to catch up :)

3:59 pm

well, the officers apparently couldn't find the graveyard fighters....bummed...really wanted to know the details

getting nowhere fast on this silly little grid

4:00 pm

So to change the mo4 here, I am just not seeing the ma5 and the second mo5. If they are easy, my wife and I can have fish for dinner.

4:00 pm

here's the big news from my neighborhood - one of our neighbors owns a huge tortoise - the kind little children can sit on and ride! (Not really, just a size comparison) and it was found wandering in the street, someone called the police and they went door to door to find the owner! fortunately, we knew where to find him....

4:00 pm

ma5 ma + garden tool :)

4:01 pm

ty NB. So much for a fish dinner.

4:01 pm

awwww, JBV! that's adorable!

4:01 pm

no problem, Wht :)

4:02 pm

and the second mo5 - the noise a cow makes, past tense

better news from nbv neighborhood, think i'm going there!

thanks nancyboy

4:03 pm

some would say boring, but I don't mind. I happen to work in an area that keeps the police much busier with tv-type crime....

4:03 pm

So it looks as though one of us gets the fish and one gets beef.

4:03 pm

That is fireworks.

4:03 pm

ty NB

4:03 pm

lol Wht, no problem

congrats wht!

4:04 pm

go beef!

4:04 pm

good for a chuckle or education.

4:04 pm

whoo hoo wht

4:04 pm

fireworks here too - congrats, wht

4:04 pm

http://www.radioreference.com/apps/aud io/

4:04 pm

whoo jbv

4:04 pm

ooh, congrats to you both!

4:04 pm

live broadcast of various emergency radios throughout USA......

we were boring until yesterday. actually i'm still pretty boring in a nice comfortable kind of way

guess i should tune in mitch

4:05 pm

Once I looked out of my window in my office in a previous job and I saw a car stopped at a traffic light and two men having a fist fight in the street.

4:05 pm

there's a lot to be said for it GE ;)

4:05 pm

Then the light changed and they both got back into the car and drove off.

4:06 pm

They were in the same car. Very strange.

lol wht

4:06 pm

GE. they may not have your city/town....but I pick the county and listen to it time to time

4:06 pm

good that they fought while not driving

very responsible hooligans

4:07 pm

lol, Jmc!!

4:07 pm

lets applaud the responsible hoods!

4:08 pm

And they were careful not to tie up traffic.

4:08 pm

double good citizens

4:08 pm

It is still one of the strangest things I have ever seen.

4:09 pm

if some one would help me with the E singleton I could have nbt too

4:09 pm

so wht I assume you heard about SEYM?

4:09 pm

I did jmc. Too bad but not a surprise.

4:10 pm

which E singleton, Jmc? there's two!

the ea planet or the ed+ marriage vow

4:10 pm

ed + to take action (ed4)

4:10 pm

yeah that handwriting was on the wall a long time

4:11 pm

ty GE and wht

4:11 pm

I can clue the e on the lower left corner, too, if you want. :^)

4:11 pm

nbt!

4:11 pm

wtg jmc

4:11 pm

and the Nationals won third game in a row 8-0!

all i can see are phantoms, and stupid ones at that: YoYoMa and son-of-a....

4:12 pm

lol i already have the e on the lower left :-P

4:12 pm

about to sign off, anyone need a clue?

4:12 pm

bye jbv I just really am dabbling

4:13 pm

ack I lied I don't have the A in the second column

4:13 pm

*cleans glasses*

4:13 pm

I'm good thanks JBV - finished earlier! just hanging around because we stayed in to watch Britain's Got Talent ;)

4:13 pm

You got a little ah5 of yourself th5, jmc

4:14 pm

4:14 pm

4:14 pm

bye jbv

4:15 pm

The other off that letter is the aenesthetic.

and of course: fahther as in luke i am your fahther

4:16 pm

i always for that spelling

4:16 pm

lol good you have a bad case of the sillies today!

4:17 pm

*forget

i need the sillies to counteract the baddies

4:18 pm

did you have a tough week?

um posted earlier, bad stuff in my hood and i live in middle suburbia

4:19 pm

:-( sorry to he** that -- but neighborhood doesn't not solve all

4:20 pm

no ne** to post again I can go re** it later

oh so true, no one is immune

4:21 pm

in fact the guys who burgled my house the week before Mother died counted on people assuming we lived in a safe neighborhood

i'm rather concerned on what to tell my 10 year old daughter. i mean i want to tell her nothing but she will he** it somewhere

4:21 pm

they drove up and down the allies and looked for unlocked doors

oh that is so sad

4:22 pm

GE good thing your baddies didn't do that and settled for a dumpster.

oh my, good point wht!

4:24 pm

GE: you would be amazed what kids can deal w/....our granddaughter handled Katrina w/ less issues than the adults.

4:24 pm

i actually never made that assumption but just went to bed tired and forgot

4:24 pm

if it is not right in the middle of their life....it's a story....they can deal with stories.

4:25 pm

my son was 6 when he watched his dad get arrested and 8 when he watched him die -- kids can handle anything as long as they have an adult they trust to willingly talk to them honestly about it

perhaps you are right mitch, i would love to think so anyway. thank you

4:26 pm

That's probably true of adults to, jmc.

4:26 pm

however, the kids will pick up on your vibes (almost as good as animals)....so you have to maintain.

4:26 pm

at 17 he saw a man hit by a car and die at his feet and at 21 he went out partying with a couple his best friends and responsibly took a cab to a hotel where the were spending the night not to drunk drive and one friend never woke up

wow. now i'm thinking that this isn't so bad. i mean it didn't happen directly to us...just kind of ne** us, could be worse i guess

4:27 pm

my son has had a rough life and is as sweet and generous and not naive as I could want

4:28 pm

your daughter will be fine!

4:28 pm

I can kill a conversation with real life at twenty paces!

4:28 pm

*smile*

and start it back up again with your good humor too!

4:29 pm

we all have our gifts, jmc.

4:29 pm

dunno what to say to that, Jmc! You must have been a tremendously supportive mother, then.

4:30 pm

my husband taught me that detrick bonhoffer had it right -- there is nothing in this life so serious that it doesn't have an element of laughter in it.

4:30 pm

0:-)

4:31 pm

hm - not sure if I agree with that. But then I like to simplify - sad things are sad, happy things are happy. As long as I'm a happy thing I don't care!

4:32 pm

help withthe C words I have comfy and deceives

4:32 pm

detrick bonhoffer wrote those words from a nazi prison

4:32 pm

I agree w/ JMC and her husband. told my wife when the time comes I want laughter at my funeral.

4:33 pm

co4 - the only clue I can think of refers to my babble namesake. Placebo lyric - "comes across all shy and co*(plural), just another nancy boy" !

4:33 pm

just enough jmitch -- ne** a few tears too!

4:33 pm

ty NB

4:33 pm

what a fish!

4:34 pm

no problem, Jmc. Are you familiar with the song, did you google, or did you figure it out from the rhyme?! :)

4:34 pm

too windy he** to grill so I guess I will have to pull out my frying pan

4:34 pm

I figured it out from the context not the rhyme exactly

4:35 pm

I actually only figured what a NB was from you when I first came on the babble scene and met you

4:37 pm

really, Jmc? well I'm glad I've made my mark! ;)

4:37 pm

lol an I had always prided myself on understanding brit!

4:38 pm

Does anyone need clues before I go?

4:38 pm

hi folks, how is everyone?

4:38 pm

probably but I can't think of what they would be wht

4:38 pm

hahaha! good for you...most Americanisms have me flummoxed

4:38 pm

have a nice dinner

4:39 pm

hi pip

4:39 pm

what will all the american movies and tv?

4:39 pm

nb, are you leaving me?

4:39 pm

Hi pippin. I am well but leaving. Nice short grid today.

4:39 pm

or is that wht leaving?

4:39 pm

4:39 pm

4:40 pm

I'm staying right here Pippin! Until further notice...

4:40 pm

you already have wht lol

4:41 pm

I loose track. Have a nice evening all. Happy Babbling.

4:41 pm

i need nice people to talk to me, belle de jour has me right peeved yet again by bringing my life into her blog

4:42 pm

i know she never names names but her unfounded hatred for me is hard to watch

4:42 pm

wow how rude!

4:42 pm

bye wht

4:42 pm

eh, Pippin?!

4:43 pm

it's very odd to be reviled by a famous blogger who has had little to no personal interaction with you in 20 years

4:44 pm

so why is she picking on you now?

4:44 pm

i know i shouldn't take it personally since the person she hates bears little resemblance to me, but it sends me over the edge every time i see some new jab

4:44 pm

what's been said, Pippin?

4:45 pm

apparently it all started when she took issue with an article i posted on facebook - she wrote a nasty nasty essay about it and me

4:45 pm

linked to, i should say, with stated reservations, not posted

4:45 pm

jeez

4:45 pm

so not an article you wrote

4:46 pm

gosh, Pippin! some people are so petty

4:46 pm

Hi all - just back - had to fight with insurance company again over hole in roof

4:47 pm

ll this went down about a month before she went public, so when i went to her site to look i found this scathing post about me and my opinions and lifestyle

4:47 pm

sounds like that is nonsense compared to what I see on the blog

4:47 pm

such that she imagines it

4:48 pm

Hi, Mom! We've just got rid of the crack in our ceiling...lovely to not run up to the roof and shift the plant pots around when it rains!

4:48 pm

i don't understand why anyone ne*** to comment on your lifestyle

4:48 pm

I'll second that, Jmc!

4:48 pm

except you of course

4:49 pm

well we have been shifting buckets in sons bedroom

4:49 pm

insurance companies are teh worst

4:49 pm

my sentiments too pippin

4:49 pm

and I work for one so I know only too well

4:50 pm

we can't do buckets - it's above where our bed is! so we had to tackle the problem from roof level, lol

4:50 pm

my daddy said that buying insurance was like betting against the house -- you nevr win

4:50 pm

we just moved the bed

4:50 pm

4:51 pm

past tense anyway

4:51 pm

mathches, the cow mo5

4:52 pm

I've been told NEVER submit insurance claim unless it's HUUUUUUUUGE.....they increase your payments and once you have "too many" claims, they drop you.

4:52 pm

hi dc! *waves*

5:09 pm

5:10 pm

well I did eat meat until very recently - after I got over the whole anorexia thing, everyone was on red alert around me, and I got bullied into eating meat etc again. Recently went back to veganism and feel sooo much better!

5:29 pm

no doubt that is true pini

5:29 pm

I used to, pippin, but only do it on special occasions now because of the grief I've gotten in the past...you know, the "center" of the party...

5:30 pm

5:30 pm

Oh...and so the academics can be paid for the work done by the admins

5:46 pm

pini, I talked to my faculty adviser yesterday, explained how the preponderance of task-based assignments are getting in the way of tackling the really critical issues of "how students learn" and "how to plan curricula" and she agreed I am doing the right thing to pick a focus and let the other tasks slide. She will support my staying in the program as well as try to get things to a manageable level for all the students.

5:46 pm

thanks for the ah word!

6:13 pm

i was the only one who didn't see me

6:13 pm

6:15 pm

yep...some odd sale they had...I actually have this contraption that was supposed to be their pee pad...artifical green turf on a plastic grid over a "drip tray" thing taht I thought they would gravitate to instead, but it didn't work...

6:16 pm

that's what I'm working on, pav...just don't want to order one online because the size I need is 2x the cost of the one advertised...go figure!

6:16 pm

so now I have this 4 x 6 roll I haven't rearranged the furniture to accomodate

6:16 pm

I paid $15 i think for this 4 x 6 roll

6:17 pm

I've not seen it at a grocery yet, what about wally world or target or something like that?

6:18 pm

they may have something yes, I was looking at Home Depot and Target, and even Ikea...and happened upon this at the grocery

6:18 pm

we should talk more about it, Pav...exchange ideas...

6:21 pm

check my profile for contact

6:21 pm

will do ;)

6:21 pm

* likewise *

6:23 pm

maybe I'll take a little road trip to home depot and see what they have...it'll give koda a break from me! :)

look it up on line pinikua, and you can see if they have it.

6:23 pm

...will be back to clue (if needed)

6:23 pm

oh, good idea...

6:23 pm

* not poofing yet *

this grid was a bit disappointing today, I mean after yesterdays...

6:25 pm

red.. i wish i could finish one lately

6:26 pm

looks like the only thing they have is "carpet" style :(

this one is good joanne.

6:26 pm

today's is doable, joanne!

pini, that is probably not what you want, though I think the whole thing is just ick. but thats my opinion and not my home.

6:27 pm

grandson here and now relaxing

6:28 pm

you're right, red...carpet-style is not what I'm looking for...but I'm hoping that the little "patch" will help prevent accidents on my carpet! :(

I have 21 left and am trying to finish so I can get an early sleep. we are going to a sand castle fest tomorrow.

6:28 pm

so much bad but so much good right now and just soaking it all n

6:28 pm

enjoy joanne!

6:28 pm

6:28 pm

what do you ne4, red?

6:29 pm

no real idea yet. just hunting and pecking.

6:31 pm

if i knew then ,what i know now...i would have had grandkids

sand castle fest, that sounds fun

6:32 pm

wait, didn't you say you were spending time with your grandson...or did I misre4?

I think it will be neat, I am just so much of a homebody it's taking a lot of planning on my part. and I am a bit grumpy!

6:32 pm

he's gone home now

6:32 pm

ooooh... I think I'm catching on ;)

I he4 a "but" coming...

6:36 pm

I'm guessing she didn't get that hint, joanne?

6:37 pm

ohh she did as we can't wake up together

6:37 pm

she's nasty in the morning and i like peace in the morning

6:38 pm

and hell pini..plate handed to you....

6:38 pm

oh my

6:39 pm

plate?

6:39 pm

uh...what do I do with a plate?

6:39 pm

(other than eat off of it)

thanks red. i picked it to clue "treat" the other day (was that just yesterday?) but it is also partly how i got my name

6:39 pm

well she don't pay all the rent

6:40 pm

i do for my grandson

6:40 pm

ugh!

6:40 pm

yes

6:40 pm

I'm following now...I don't move for similar reasons...

6:41 pm

the things we do for your kids

Joanne, I am sure you love your daughter, but what on earth will she do when you say, retire and dont pay all the rent.

6:41 pm

...I've made sure my kids know they have a place to go should they ever get themselves into a sticky situation...(them and my grandkids)

6:42 pm

red i am a 43 and make a half decent wage so not worried

6:43 pm

but i do let her know that they have to buck up when they can

I stayed with my parents for 2 months between overseas jobs, and it was really difficult for them and me...

6:43 pm

I lasted 2 weeks with my parents...

6:44 pm

...long time ago...

6:44 pm

that was more than I could handle...

6:44 pm

red, when i left homei said i would never go back..and never did

We knew it was temporary. I did a ton of work on the property and spent a lot of time going on errands...the worst though was when I went to pick up my Dad at the airport and got lost!

6:44 pm

I have a better relationship with my own children than I did with my parents

My Parents are alright, not very typical parents overall.

6:45 pm

pini we learn from our past

6:45 pm

most definitely!

6:46 pm

and we improve too

6:46 pm

true

6:46 pm

that's what growing is all about

6:46 pm

my friends had a similar situation, the mother supported a daughter, but then she passed away unexpectedly (pancreatic cancer) and the daugh had to figure out "what to do" - she had not worked before and when she tried, en5 up claiming "disability" "unable to cope with work in any situation"..turned her son over to his dad and now lives with her dad...she still doesn't work, but has a very supportive bf with whom they have a daugh and are raising her son as well... my friend's dad says it's his penance for being a terrible father to them earlier in life to now have to help care for two more generations

6:47 pm

we hated our parents saying that

pancreatic cancer is terrible.

6:47 pm

wow, pav...

6:49 pm

I can't talk to my parents anymore and they choose not to talk to me ... so I gave up

6:49 pm

ok sorry, stepping out for ride in the Mustang

6:49 pm

I make it a point to be in my children's lives...whenever and wherever I can

6:49 pm

bb in few

6:49 pm

have a good time, joanne!

6:50 pm

my friend - her bro ..disowned her after the mom's death for being lazy and a mooch..now they are both better and stronger, but still somehwat untrusting...his mom broke up his first marriage so he wasn't too accommodating until after the sis got herself spmewhat toewther...

I feel lucky that I do get on with my parents, at least form a distance.

6:50 pm

somewhat together...

embarassed to ask but the so 4 7?

after my bro threw us out 1 1/2 years ago New Year's day, my mom and sister are still with me and don't really interact with him much. and he lives near them...we're not doing the family reunion thing" for a while yet

6:53 pm

so5 = ho5 (like a hog call)

Oh Duh, thanks Pini!!!

6:54 pm

Was going to call you Hopalong Pini

6:54 pm

I've attempted the "family" functions but don't think I will anymore...they're definitely not worth it...

9:09 pm

darn, GE.

9:09 pm

lol, love the need for speed!

9:12 pm

I have a couple of tins on my fireplace hearth that he loves to beat on. He knocks them down and 1 is large and he accidentally rolls over it and then LOOKS at it like "how did That happen?"

9:21 pm

tor, block your ears...

9:21 pm
