yeah

12:06 am

thanks grem

12:07 am

nbt

12:08 am

Hmm. I don't think most will know the he8/9. I mean, it'll look like a word, but only a select few will ever have used it (and not me!)

12:08 am

back later, though, to discuss more :-)

12:08 am

freep i sure dont know what it is

12:08 am

Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow

12:25 am

12:25 am

ok, found the he10 and its ending -- thanks dc and morewords again

12:27 am

and got the he8 & 9 without morewords (strange)

12:28 am

just trying to monkey those

12:29 am

he8/9 fairly common, so easier

12:29 am

got them - assuming the 9 was a pl, monkeyed it that way

12:29 am

I never heard of them, dc -- are they musical?

12:30 am

yes

12:30 am

literary, i think

12:30 am

literary, i think

12:30 am

Hi folks...is it a tough one so far?

12:30 am

I assumed that, ?

12:30 am

oops, didn't mean to dup

12:30 am

no, gadget

12:31 am

hi gadget, seems to move along nicely

12:31 am

oh lol, opp of the foot one?

12:32 am

hi gadget :)

12:33 am

hi jili

12:33 am

indeed, jilli :)

12:33 am

dane is here again, sigh

12:35 am

yes, jilli, I type that in every time

12:35 am

have new icon up, but guess everyone probably has it

12:42 am

I'm jealous all of you already have a handle on the 8, 9, and 10!

12:42 am

oh darn, flosey, I was just going to post an animated one!

12:42 am

oh, please do, I love the animated ones

12:42 am

gadget, the 10 is not related to the 8 & 9

12:43 am

animated icons I mean

12:43 am

well, I'll see if it works here

12:44 am

once you have the first he, the 8 and 9 come quickly..and the 10 is actually in the dictionary (that's how I found it)

12:46 am

oh, here's the animated icon clue

12:47 am

I meant ok. Tired again!

12:47 am

love it, jilli

12:47 am

jilli, keeping too busy?

12:47 am

fireworks

12:48 am

wtg anike

12:48 am

YAY anike!!!

12:49 am

congrats, anike

12:49 am

TY - and now its time for the dreaded weekly shopping. It is raint and cold out there in the world today.

12:49 am

I men rainy

12:49 am

ooh, chilly. what a treat

12:49 am

:)

12:49 am

Went for my first swim in the sea today -- heavenly! Then had to freeze a box of strawberries, get supper, etc etc...

12:50 am

No - we don't like chilly in WA, we like sunshine

12:51 am

oh I bet that swim felt good - it was so hot today

12:51 am

it's been 38c plus for a week until today. today was only 32

12:51 am

well, you have to have autumn and winter even there, anike!

12:52 am

we went to Victoria - finally applied for passport, should have it in 10 days

12:53 am

oh good, flosey!

12:53 am

oh, cool, flosey

12:53 am

if you go to US regularly, a NEXUS card may be worthwhile

12:54 am

I wish I could talk my mum into letting me do her shopping today - it is such a miserable day.

12:54 am

take her with you, maybe?

12:54 am

your mum is lucky to have a daughter like you, anike

12:54 am

I don't dc - but I'd like to - have a cousin in Vancouver, Washington

12:55 am

Yes jill we do have all seasons but not a lot of really cold days. We are having a record cold snap at the present time.

12:55 am

Well I am lucky to have her as a mum too, jill

12:55 am

your record cold balances our record heat. Washington, DC is nearly directly opposite Perth, WA

12:55 am

and we had record heat yesterday, lol!

12:55 am

Anike, hope that bad weather isn't near you.

does anyone have the second st 5,10... I am blind to it...

12:56 am

I always take my mum shopping dc - she is 93

12:56 am

haven't got that far, dee, sorry

12:56 am

a heavy st5

12:57 am

ah, i see. so, yes, in that chill, better she stay home, agreed.

12:57 am

If I get to be 93 I won't have a daughter to take me shopping.

12:57 am

st 5/10 - a medical tube

12:57 am

ah, i lacked the 1st, ty anike

12:58 am

But she likes to come and do her own shopping and comes back here to catch up with family and a glass of wine. She loves Friday afternoons

from which st does it originate?

12:58 am

right one, dee

ty

12:59 am

anike, she sounds like fun

12:59 am

oh, that does sound lovely, anike :) I take my mom shopping every other week -- she hates to go out.

12:59 am

Stuck half way - you guys are too good

1:00 am

I'm not halfway yet, gadget

1:00 am

it'll pick up gadget :)

1:00 am

i'm slowing down with 32 to go

1:00 am

She enjoys life but her memory is becoming frustratingly bad. Anyway - had better go. Happy babbling.

1:00 am

Too early for the he8/9 clue?

1:01 am

be well, anike

1:01 am

hotel

1:01 am

1:05 am

1:09 am

monkeyed both mi5s

1:09 am

I am he dumb today

1:10 am

the mast does, the sail doesn't, jilli {re-poof}

1:10 am

oh blast, below normal temps predicted for here -- we've had enough of that. I love the heat, and swimming in the sea.

1:10 am

oh, thanks, dc!

1:11 am

hi ruru

1:11 am

don't you have orcas up your way jilli?

1:12 am

yes, why, ruru?

1:13 am

swimming in the ocean with them can be risky

1:14 am

well, they don't come where I swim -- it's a quiet bay in a channel between here and Vancouver Island.

1:15 am

well then.. just don't go .. AR AR AR in the water

1:15 am

don't worry!

1:19 am

oh -- over halfway

1:24 am

jambo!

1:25 am

1:40 am

he8...I'm going to rip my hair out. Anyone? I have the 1st part...

1:41 am

he8 -- at the bottom of a page you might find a foot**** -- so maybe this is at the top of a page?

1:42 am

I owe you breakfast, jili - thx

1:43 am

yw! What's for breakfast?

1:44 am

Smoked salmon, Solly's bagels from Vancouver, and mimosas.

I cannot monkey the zo4 and 5. Not he area one, but the other...

1:59 am

I'm staring at those too, gadget.

1:59 am

oops -- got the zo4!

2:01 am

and the 5!

2:01 am

the zo4 is like the first to4, the 5 is the latin pl.

2:01 am

I like the happy icon jili.A cheery start to the day.

2:03 am

2:04 am

A line connecting places with sunshine on a weather map.

2:40 am

bye jmc!

Good morning everyone.

mornin'

those

thee

hees

these

oops

Thank you :-)

3:13 am

Hello, Sally. Good morning/evening all.

I log on each morning in fear and trepidation that it has all changed :-)

3:15 am

And I log on each morning in a kind of anticipation.

Well that too.

3:16 am

I don't think it will all change. We'll still be looking for words. But I know what you mean.

3:19 am

Morning Haz and Sally et al.

3:19 am

Good morning, FM.

Morning FM.

3:20 am

Last time Dr_G changed the site he put up a beta version of the new one so we could hammer it and test for any bugs, perhaps he will do the same again this time.

3:20 am

Good morning everyone.

3:21 am

Hello, macadam - nice to see you!

3:21 am

Hi macadam!

That might be useful FM, though really there shouldn't bee too many bugs if he is more or less just changing the layout.

3:21 am

We'll just have to be patient - maybe he's doing the testing via the teasers.

3:22 am

I`m usually about.Because I pop in and out of the game I don`t often chat.

3:23 am

We must be careful not to talk about you, in that case, except in terms of glowing admiration.

3:24 am

How is the grid today?

3:25 am

Haven't started yet as just returned from errands and shopping.

3:25 am

Not a good idea.I might begin to believe you and forget why I`m playing.Good for the ego though!

So far very easy, but I've just noticed there's a 9 and 10 (hopefully one a plural of the other).

3:25 am

It seems to be okay so far. Of course, I say that most days.

3:25 am

At least it is a more reasonable size, yesterdays wa a bit of a slog.

Cough. PB FM!

Twice :-))

3:26 am

(Sally's very strict)

3:26 am

8 and 9 singular and plural.10 no connection.

3:26 am

oops :(

Thanks macadam! Had the 8 and hadn't the plural (being so careful to avoid words!!)

3:28 am

It's a good thing you didn't start talking about applying water to the garden, or using a fireman's water carrying device or talking about your house being haunted.

3:28 am

Think I will stay in the PB all day as it has aircon :)

3:28 am

LOL Haz

3:28 am

Or weeding the garden, or finding runaway pigs.

runaway pigs? Thinks.

Oh - those runaway pigs.

3:29 am

To rhyme with the wood she hasn't been chopping.

3:30 am

You'd shout out in surprise if you found those pigs in your garden.

lol, yes, had those pigs, was looking for boar in the grid.

3:30 am

Especially if you were just getting your swimming things on.

If you were chopping that wood, you could throw your axe at them.

3:31 am

Poor piggies!

Or frighten them with your haunted personage.

3:32 am

mmm bacon.

3:32 am

FM has probably finished the grid by now, thanks to all those hints.

3:33 am

Im trying to ignore them but they are amusing.

3:34 am

Unusual not to have an r in the grid

3:34 am

I wonder if the haunted personage is carrying his brain container under his arm?

lol haz

3:35 am

That would do more than just frighten the pigs.

Perhaps he has forgotten it.

If, for instance, he has already sunk towards that river on the way to hell (erudite literary reference, please note).

3:37 am

Let us hope he does not encounter any larvae of crustaceans.

3:37 am

FM, quick, look up erudite, Sally's gone all posh on us.

Assuming he still has a sniffing appendage on his brain container, he might be able to smell out the harvae of crustaceans.

3:39 am

You'd hope so, but do sniffing appendages work under water?

You can tell where I am in the grid, can't you.

He might be in the boat, assuming he has paid the ferryman.

3:40 am

With a brand new five pound paper money bill?

3:40 am

Sounds like thre are some great words for 'clue icon Friday' :)

3:40 am

Any food served aboard?

You've got me there Haz

3:42 am

Coffee time, back in a tic.

3:42 am

The food that rhymes with the exclamations of amazement and cries of things being nonsense.

Don't have any food, will look. I was puzzled at your new five pound paper money.

3:44 am

I couldn't think of anything else for the money that's the same as a musical term.

Ah!! Lightbulb gone on over the food.

Aaah! That money.

3:45 am

This would have mkg terribly confused.

Would have thought the food was a slang word, but we've had it before.

3:46 am

I know - there's no accounting for enable, but that's part of the fun.

Half way, despite chatting :-)

3:48 am

Wonder if Dr_G will update enable as part of the changes (we can dream).

3:48 am

My crafty plan to slow you down isn't working.

I do like it when there are just a few words from a particular square, it does help to concentrate the mind. When you see there are 41 or something ... :-(

3:50 am

I know, I get easily distracted when I spot words from other tiles.

Aaah. Loses temper. Have just had post telling me I need to renew my driving licence because the photo is 10 years old (and that is the only reason). And they want to charge me £20 for the privilege of something I don't even want to do. £20!!

3:58 am

£20 is steep, I agree.

3:58 am

great little revenue earner for them!

3:59 am

I think they just think of a number off the top of their head, that can't be the real cost of sticking a new photo in.

I could stick the photo in for them, if they like.

4:00 am

and of course there is the cost of getting the new pics done too.

4:01 am

Are they as fussy about driving licence pictures as they are with passport ones?

Grump

4:01 am

That's exactly the look they want for the picture, Sally. No smiling!

No, it says I don't have to have it signed or anything. Wonder if they'd notice if I just sent them the same photo?

4:02 am

At my old surgery the Drs charged £25 for signing passport pics.

4:03 am

That's outrageous! That's just them saying, we can't be bothered, go somewhere else.

I have to admit (looks round cautiously) that the photo in my driving licence at present is well over ten years old, it was old when I sent it but was one I liked. However, I have never been asked to produce my driving licence. They would just think I'd aged rather rapidly.

4:04 am

There'll be someone in the driving licence place with a grand title like 'Photo ageing and identification conformity officer'

4:04 am

:) Sally.

4:04 am

FM, we're consorting with a criminal.

I think the curls and the dolly in the picture might give it away.

4:05 am

How exciting.

4:07 am

We'll need to be on the lookout for trouble if she asks us to provide an alibi.

Oh, good, just found my last Z. A real fish one too, especially as I'm going to prepare some lemons this morning.

4:07 am

As Chief of Police Haz, I think you had better keep quiet.

4:08 am

My loyalties will be torn.

4:08 am

What are you going to do with them once z4'ed Sally?

4:08 am

Would they go well with the crustacean larvae?

I thought I'd make a lemoh drizzle cake, nice for the summer because not too gooey.

4:09 am

oh yummy.

4:10 am

I picked up a lemon this a.m to make a lemony dressing to go with salmon and new potatoes (and salad).

4:10 am

You did pay for it? I can't be associating with TWO criminals.

4:11 am

LOL you are safe wih me.

Mmm, FM. I love lemon in any form.

4:11 am

Phew! I thought I was going to have to se5/20 that lemon as evidence.

4:12 am

oh thanks for that am just battling with the s's a the mo.

4:13 am

And verb form, as well.

4:15 am

Bored with the s's will come back to them later ... on to the o's

4:16 am

or the o even

4:16 am

hellloooooo!

4:16 am

Morning Ata!!

Must just dash off to pick up dearly beloved's prescription. 100 done, 48 to go so will be back in a bit to finish I hope.

4:16 am

Hello! How are you?

4:17 am

Toodles Sally.

4:17 am

still amused at D's attempts at superiority and condescention from last night

4:17 am

Bye, Sally. Let's hope the driving licence people don't get you.

4:18 am

I spelled that very wrong

4:18 am

With an s instead of the t.

4:18 am

what occurred Ata?

4:18 am

yes! I clicked on that *after* I posted it lol

4:19 am

did I tell you about his aunt's funeral yesterday?

4:19 am

No.

4:19 am

oh well, one of his mad aunts died and it was her funeral yesterday

4:19 am

and I hate loathe and am utterly phobic about going to funerals

4:20 am

so I didn't go. Couldn't deal with that right now. D was very unamused at this

4:20 am

You'd hate living in Ireland....

4:20 am

oh dear.

4:20 am

and so last night he gets home and whines about the fact I should have been there. I explain for the millionth time why I didn't go

4:20 am

and then! then!!!!

4:21 am

(There's more)

4:21 am

he says something like "most people would overcome such things to stand next to their spouse, but you're lucky that I am understanding enough to realise you couldn't manage"

4:21 am

*dies laughing*

4:22 am

If he's so understanding, why did he keep going on about it? Not logical, Captain.

4:22 am

(Note the Star Trek reference)

4:22 am

what a twit!

4:22 am

I *know*

4:22 am

D not you Haz.

4:22 am

so apparently I'm very lucky to have such a Caring,UNderstandin HUsband

4:23 am

Well, after all, you do have his example to follow. Look how he overcame his hangnail to support your broken leg.

4:23 am

LOL

4:24 am

how could I forget

4:24 am

How IS his hangnail, by the way?

4:24 am

he hasn't mentioned it for a while ...

4:25 am

Maybe that means it's cured. That's a good thing, especially as you didn't need to get the plastic surgeons in.

4:25 am

I am sure he will come up with something equally spectacular before too long.

4:26 am

i'm sure ...

4:26 am

Speaking of which, and changing the subject absolutely completely away from dear husband, did either of you see the photographs of the lady who was badly disfigured in the 7/7 bombings but who now looks wonderful?

4:27 am

hello again. Got 60 words before then made one pot of currant jelly (end of crop), tabouleh (sp?) etc, watered the tomatoes. Trying to do as much as possible in the AM before the canicule sets in. DH is still not speaking to me, so these things I mde were for MOI!

4:27 am

yes!!

4:28 am

Just amazing and exactly what doctors should be doing.

4:28 am

productive morning ruby. No not seen the pics Haz.

4:28 am

I'll get you a tinyurl.

4:29 am

it is perfect here in the mornings, belying what comes later! They';re predicting 36C this afternoon!

4:29 am

Feel sorry for the cyclist in such heat.

4:30 am

http://tinyurl.com/2ucgnub

4:30 am

poor guys. predicting another good Cav day todya

4:30 am

I can't imagine how they do it anyway, riding so close together in the peloton and not crashing. But yay for Cavendish!

4:30 am

thanks Haz, will go and have a look.

4:33 am

Gosh isn't that amazing!

4:33 am

anty hints for the 3 long words? I don't know where to look

4:33 am

They all begin with he.

4:33 am

any*

4:33 am

he! goodness

4:33 am

ty, I'll send in the monkeys

4:34 am

he8 and he9 - compound words.

4:34 am

he10 - ends in belief in deity.

4:34 am

Time for me to get on with other things, so I shall pootle off and hope to see you later.

4:34 am

bye dear!

4:35 am

Toodle-oo FM.

4:36 am

I might shoot off for a few minutes too. I have a sudden wish to make a chocolate cake, and thus must acquire chocolate and cake ingredients! back soon!

4:36 am

Bye, Ata. I'm going to take a break as well soon.

4:38 am

he8 - a brief summary at the start of a chapter or a report.

4:38 am

he10 - a belief in a deity that doesn't deny the existence of other deities.

4:39 am

those sound like wonderful clues, but I'm afraid they're above my head!

4:39 am

And I'm off!

4:39 am

bye and thanks for trying

Back! And hi ruby.

And thanks Haz for the he10, clued just as I came back.

5:04 am

hi everyone

5:05 am

I have been getting my computer fixed

5:05 am

Ruby are you enjoying the tour - I am loving it

5:41 am

yay, sandyloo!

5:42 am

hi you took a long time to answer

5:42 am

did I miss sandyloo?

5:42 am

it was lunch time.

5:42 am

it was lunch time.

5:43 am

Yes, I am watching the Tour with enormous pleasure, as usual, even though Lance is doing so badly.

5:43 am

I hope you did, I had them take windows 7 off and put xp on - I hope it does the job, i lost all my stuff off quickbooks , I wasn't happy as I had tried to back it up

5:43 am

I was on this AM and was hoping I'd "run into you" to discuss the fine points of the Tour

Hello

5:43 am

hi herin

5:44 am

I guess we can't expect lance to win - I feel a little agitated with those rumours about him - hi herin

how you?

5:44 am

I had an argument the other evening with some "troll" (I'm not sure what that means) who was using nasty language to describe Lance. He knew how to push my buttons!

5:45 am

Cadel (Howdy) is going well , so is cancellara -

5:45 am

I don't expect Lance to win, but I think he's philosphical about it and did you notice how many Astana riders defected to Radioshack?

5:45 am

we will never know what anyone on that tour really takes- cycling is bad for the drugs - but in any case they are all amazing

5:45 am

It was terrible about Franck Schleck, but his brother does him credit.

5:46 am

bad crashes- I felt sorry for Frank Schleck

5:46 am

LOL we were thinking alike - is it going through your village?

5:46 am

just riding that close to each other in the peloton takes enormous courage and the endurance needed to finish the tour is phenomenal. I think Landis is a jerk!

5:47 am

Landis is definitely a jerk-no doubt about it- I dont like vinikourov either I think he rides for himself and not the team

5:48 am

it went through my village and past my house last year in the individual time trial around Lake Annecy, but this year, the closest point is Stl Jean de Sixt, La Clusaz and the Col d'Aravis, all with in a half hour of here

5:48 am

that peloton is really scary I don't know how they manage the traffic and the crowds and the road furniture either

5:49 am

I am hoping that Vinokurov doesn't help Contador, who is one of the riders I don't like at all. I think Cancellara looks like a nice guy and Andy Schleck might win it for his brother. But this year, I've heard almost nothing abut Saste. What's the story with him, do you know?

5:49 am

I am glad Cadel is doing well but he has a funny voice- have you heard it?

5:50 am

they were discussing Sastre today- they say the mountains will sort the boys from the men

5:50 am

nO, BECAUSE THEY DO A VOICE-OVER IN fRENCH WHEN HE'S INTERVIEWED. i THINK, HOWEVER, HE'S A CLEAN RIDER WITH A LOT OF TALENT.

5:51 am

Whoops, sorry for caps, I get very excited, talking about the Tour. My husband has no interest and hasn't spoken to me in 2 days anyway. What a charmer!

5:51 am

My family is not saying anything today as it is my 60th birthday

5:51 am

and bad weather predicted starting tomorrow. The crashes were horrific in the first 3 stages!

5:52 am

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, SANDYLOO! You are just a kid, compared to me!

5:52 am

I like to see the crashes they are entertaining but I don't like to see them get hurt - do you remember when on of them went over the rail and down the mountainside

5:53 am

I will put my e-mail in my profile for a few minutes, so you can write to me that way, but then I'll take it out.

5:53 am

good one ruby , mine is there already

5:54 am

and do you remember when Armstrong made a "pont" and went over the grass on a long winding descent when guys crashed in front of him?

5:54 am

I dont remember that one

5:55 am

I like it when the commentators try to sound really clever talking about chateau architecture :)

5:55 am

Ruby send me an email and then i will have your address

5:56 am

Ata, I think they must have a computer in front of them - I often think like you when I hear that, However I think they do a great job

5:56 am

oh, they really do! but it still amuses me ;)

5:57 am

I just looked at my profile and I think my e-mail is in there! Horrors! I'll write to you and then you can see photos of garden, dogs, dh, house, etc. and maybe even my last year's photos from the Tour.

5:58 am

That is Jean_paul Ollivier and I think I'm in love with him. He is getting old (but the, so am I), but his voice enchants me. Did you seen how sick Laurent Fignon is? I know he has cancer and was bald last year, but this year, he can hardly speak. It is very sad!

5:58 am

ruby, i cant see it in the profile, how about you send me an email then i will have it

5:59 am

will do, as soon as I give up on finding more words

6:00 am

What time do they show the Tour there. Here, it starts at about 3PM and goes 'til 5:30. It drives DH crazy, but tant pis, as they say here!

6:00 am

I would love to be in France now and I too am going to get on with the puzzle and dinner

6:01 am

we have previews from about midday on Eurosport and ITV 4, then the full stage

6:01 am

the crashes are horrifyingly fascinating!

6:01 am

it starts at 8pm and goes to midnight about

6:02 am

we have a half hour rap at 6pm

6:02 am

Iit is no fun watching the Tour go by when you're standing by the road. It goes pfffft! I saw Lance, close-up, one year, the same year it was Virenque's last one.

6:02 am

ata, do you see the race from start to finish?

6:02 am

I love Richard Virenque

6:02 am

I love Ja Ja!

6:02 am

pretty much, yes.

6:03 am

who is Ja Ja

6:03 am

He's my fave, and now that he's sitting in for Fignon, I think he'll be the permanent commentator after Laurent Fignon is gone.....

6:03 am

we see a good amount but I am always disappointed when it finishes

6:04 am

Laurent Jalabert. He's retired, is very handsome, and has a great voice. Usually, he rides one of the motos, but while Fignon is only doing a few of the stages, he is sitting behind the desk.

6:05 am

last year I put a big JaJa sign on my hedge when they passed here in the time trial , but as it was downhill, they never showed it on TV.\

6:05 am

it really is not so fun to see the real thing. wait wait wait wait ... *WHIZZ* .... the end

6:05 am

the crowds are amazing - I cant believe how crowded it is in some areas (like the mountains)

6:05 am

and then stuck in traffic for two hurs getting home. I also don't like crowds

6:06 am

Ata, I always have thought it would be better on TV but I would enjoy the festivities that it creates

6:06 am

and there is always some naked guy running alongside and a guy dressed as a devil in the mountains!

6:06 am

they go by in liteally a few seconds

6:07 am

they sure do go fast! I think they are very brave to be in the middle of that speeding peloton

6:07 am

hi ata!

6:07 am

I have seen the devil every time but not the naked guy

6:07 am

when I saw Lance from the side of the road, it went by so fast (in the descent from the Col de la Forclaz), it was much less fun than watching on the tellie

6:07 am

hi all

6:07 am

they try no to show the naked guy

6:08 am

not*

6:08 am

LOL what a bunch of wowsers!

6:08 am

hi jm

6:08 am

(sorry, when I type fast, I leave out letters!)

6:08 am

thats my favorite part ruby ;-)

6:09 am

I know it would be fmitch's favourite part

6:09 am

"part" somehow seems inappropriate

6:09 am

lol

6:14 am

am I being very stuipid not seeing the i word?

6:14 am

words?

6:14 am

one word + plural

6:14 am

you could never be stupid Ata, except maybe about Disney....lol

6:14 am

I sent you an e-mail, sandyloo!

6:14 am

go to ***l

6:15 am

6:19 am

And happy birthday, sandyloo!

6:20 am

I'm just reading back in chat and discovered that celebrations were in order.

6:20 am

I never got the religious he, haz

6:20 am

Okay, try he, plus the opposite of yes, attach this to a word that means the study of or belief in deity.

6:21 am

Back shortly....

6:21 am

6:21 am

6:24 am

6:41 am

6:42 am

did I recommend the root beer (or sarsparilla) cake to you Ata? Its fab, kje found it. I have made it about 6 times and always good. http://gastronomyblog.com/2009/02/09/r oot-beer-bundt-cake/

6:42 am

she lazing round in the sea most days :D

6:42 am

oh sasparilla reminds me straight away of 'Anne of Green Gables'

6:43 am

PS don't do the frosting, just sprinkle icing sugar

6:43 am

I'm sure it's lovely ... but I really dislike root beer!!!

6:44 am

You would be hard pressed to taste it

6:44 am

mm that sounds good lynxxx, it is obviously caking making day today as Sally is making a lemon drizzle cake today.

6:45 am

6:46 am

good morning Babblers :)

7:27 am

Hi Nono

7:27 am

NB, how's it going in your new place? settling in OK?

7:27 am

and thanks for the 10, FMitch and Haz

7:27 am

good morning Nono

7:28 am

I'm not too bad, thank you :) just about coming to terms with a disastrous date I went on recently. I never want to be asked: a) my Korean name, or b) if I would ever wear my "native dress"

7:28 am

{{Nono}} good morning

yes I caught that clue too thanks for passing that along FM

7:28 am

oh lord

7:28 am

oh thanks JBV, I love it here :) yeah, we're having lots of fun as flatmates. Plus...the cats!

7:29 am

what JBV

7:29 am

(that was for NB)

7:29 am

sorry, didn't see NB post

7:29 am

great, NB, glad to see you're smiling!

7:29 am

hrm. i dont think asking your korean name is so bad, but native dress? thats rather strange...heh

7:29 am

I second that JBV

you have cats now NB?

7:30 am

Hi Hootowl

7:30 am

What are they expecting ? a loin cloth?

hi Hootowl

7:30 am

Morning

7:30 am

hi hi hi

7:30 am

whoo whoo whooo

7:31 am

hehehe

7:31 am

hi Hoot

7:31 am

LOL Hoot! Well, my 'native dress', as it was so put, consists mainly of silk overcoats (I don't wear silk) and ridiculous hats. Oh, and then he excitedly told me what my name meant. Thanks, Captain Korea.

7:31 am

oh yeah, Nono! Two little cuties, both rescues, both completely adorable!

7:32 am

gee maybe he has a silk fetish...

7:32 am

halfway for me, time to start my day. {{Hugs}} to all of you.

aweeeeeee you should post a pic of them NB I love kitties

7:32 am

my thoughts exactly, hootowl

7:32 am

how long do we have you for this morning, dear? *debating getting brekkies, but NB always escapes when i do*

bye bye (((Mom)))

7:33 am

bye Mom

7:33 am

Shall do, Nono, whenever they decide to stay still long enough ;)

7:33 am

bye bye {{Nono}} have a great day

7:33 am

bye bye {{Lynxxx}} pleasant dreams

7:33 am

I will try my bestest to be here when you get back, Eva ;) cats and flatmates permitting.

7:33 am

sleeping should work....

7:33 am

ok then! *quick like a bunny*

lol NB kittens do tend to run around a lot but I bet you can catch them when they are taking a nap

my Missy tends to sleep most of the time now. She is getting to be a lazy senior LOL

7:36 am

awww, Nono! I'm not sure if these two ever sleep ;) rather, they wait until I fall asleep, and then attack whatever limb I've left dangling over the side of the bed. Arms, legs, they aren't fussy..

crafty little ones. I bet they sleep when you go to work

7:37 am

Probably ;) They probably have a copy of my schedule pinned up somewhere..

7:37 am

goodnight all

:)

nite nite lynxxx sleep well

7:38 am

nite lynxxx

7:39 am

night, Lynx!

7:42 am

hello everyone and night lynxxx

7:42 am

morning, Annie :)

morning Annie

7:43 am

hi NB, how are the kitties?

7:44 am

just adorable, Annie! who needs boyfriends when you have furry friends like these..

7:45 am

NB, that makes sense to me...you can always get a boyfriend but a good kitty is hard to find

7:45 am

im back! breakfast is served: peach yogurt with a little granola + mixed fruit (strawberries, grapes, honeydew + cantaloupe) and a Goji Wild Berry flavored Fuze drink. :)

7:46 am

How right you are, Annie ;)

7:46 am

and welcome back, Eva! that was fast!

ohhhhhhhhh sounds yummy Eva

7:46 am

jesse, dear, you may have some competition for young asian hottie, based on the guy i saw in the caf. ;)

7:46 am

*outraged* nice, was he? ;)

7:46 am

i think he may even be straight...hehe

7:47 am

no worries though, i suspect he doesnt have *nearly* the fab personality as you do, love. ;)

7:48 am

Straight? Surely not! :P well bless you for saying so ;)

7:49 am

I bet he has more of a life though. It's nearly 2pm here and I'm...sitting on the floor, painting my toenails.

7:50 am

ooh, i could use a mani-pedi myself. all of my toes are currently painted yellow, save for the middle toe on my right foot... i picked the polish off that one in a fit of wedding-planning frustration the other night, and now its just kinda sad. also, the putty-colored polish on my fingers is seriously chipping... :/

7:51 am

who needs reality TV? we have the babble chat - I love you guys! (that means you too Eva)

7:51 am

you picked off polish in the middle of flip-flop season? must have been some frustration! hopefully all is resolved now?

7:52 am

LOL JBV. Yeah, this is basically Big Brother ;) if you get that in the states...

7:52 am

yes but so much more intellectual as we are finding new words amidst the fun

oh we get Big Brother but I cant compare this group to that.

7:53 am

I do enjoy hearing your stories, it's fun to remember that I was once young myself

7:53 am

and fireworks

7:53 am

awww, thanky jbv! ::feels the love:: yes, NB, was just stressing a bit over things that needed to be finished and scheduled. things are getting done now, though. :)

7:54 am

sadly, my peep-toes frame the unpolished toe just perfectly...

7:54 am

7:55 am

congrats Annie and hi

woohhooo Annie

7:55 am

hi hoot

7:55 am

I'm sure life begins again at retirement, JBV ;) spare time is the origin of all naughtiness.

7:56 am

heh, someday that line will live on your tombstone, NB: "spare time is the origin of all naughtiness."

7:56 am

hmm,very interesting NB - not sure if that's a warning or a promise

7:57 am

well I am retired but I def do not have spare time.

7:57 am

Oh I hope so, Eva! My great wisdom must be shared... JBV, I think it's whichever of those you want it to be ;)

7:57 am

well much

7:57 am

anyone like a clue before I head out?

7:58 am

def naughty

7:58 am

right now, any spare time I have is devoted to my Italian homework (see profile for full story) but I must admit I am now thinking daring thoughts, like maybe plannig a trip to Italy in the future????

thanks Annie but I just found the 8 so I think things are in hand now for me

7:58 am

ooh, jbv -- italy is BEAUTIFUL.

7:59 am

if you go, take me with you!

7:59 am

not naughty, just exciting

7:59 am

yes, I know, Eva, read my story to see how excited I am

7:59 am

7:59 am

okay then, bye dear babblers

bye bye Annie have a great day, stay cool

8:00 am

jo ,9

* hi

8:02 am

Nono's right hand shifted.LOL

yup it did

8:03 am

Ohh, always good to have somewhere to stay. Through my "gap year" I could have written a guide on how to sleep rough in Europe. Always check the tides before you sleep on a beach, btw.

8:03 am

bbs

later hoot

8:03 am

good idea NB!

8:04 am

not too late to write it up, NB, you may have a bestseller on your hands

8:04 am

NB will soon be able to write a guide on how to couch-surf in the states. ;)

8:05 am

sadly JBV, the months we spent travelling are a bit of a blur...;)

8:06 am

zots is on the grid.

8:06 am

lol, Eva! if you need a guide for how to sleep on a sofa, you probably shouldn't leave home in the first place ;)

8:07 am

ahh, but the art of couch-surfing is more than just sleeping on a sofa. its sleeping sofa-to-sofa. ;)

8:09 am

back

8:09 am

taking a break with 34 to go, see you later, good luck with the grid

bye JBV

9:54 am

9:54 am

http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/efc /cam_menu.aspx

9:56 am

Tim shot a bear that was charging him once. And it didn't drop until VERY close. He went to his friend and told him where it was and that friend could have it. He just didn't even want to go anywhere near it again.

very glad i'm hearing this now instead of before we went

9:58 am

I took down a raging transvestite in SF once.. not quite the same thing

9:58 am

there is also a photo contest. so we want to see you in your cow costume, crossy!

12:29 pm

a cow photo contest?

12:29 pm

one of the worst things about this place is that you can't get a meal in a restaurant before 7:30 or 8

12:29 pm

so even when it's hot, I have to make dinner

12:30 pm

yesterday I cooked a roast. But i put it in the crockpot on the back porch.

12:30 pm

I can also make a meal in the steamer...outside.

12:30 pm

I don't eat it, and the boys are gone. I will fix something, haven't decided.

12:31 pm

that's a good idea

12:31 pm

why not inside, M9?

12:31 pm

Tonight I have the missionaries coming over for dinner. But Aiden's cooking.

12:31 pm

because cooking inside heats the house..

i have a black and white fur like belt, maybe i will try that. or you can download ears and a snout from their website

12:31 pm

and it's already too hot.

12:31 pm

you are one busy person M9

12:31 pm

you know what else is a good idea? strawberries and cool whip! which i am eating right now.

12:32 pm

LOL! that's a great idea!

12:32 pm

there you go, TO,

12:32 pm

aaaah!

12:32 pm

you know what's better? mix a little powdered sugar into sour cream and eat with strawberries.

12:32 pm

i have made about 5 gallons of home made iced tea;)

12:32 pm

put a cow bell around your neck :)

ooh, good idea! wish i had one

the site also has spots and a tail

12:33 pm

my friend's husband collects cow bells,; he has more than 100, many of them antique. It drives her crazy!

12:33 pm

Take a sticker off of a supermarket cut of beef and stick it on your forhe**.

12:33 pm

I think I would forgo the tail part

strawberries romanoff...bliss

12:33 pm

what is with this cow theme all of a sudden?

12:33 pm

blow up a rubber glove and stick it to your front.

12:34 pm

M9, that would work.

12:34 pm

lol

12:34 pm

raofl

12:34 pm

1:02 pm

only the finest babble aid around!!

1:03 pm

www.morewords.com

1:03 pm

I found the word in the dictionary since I had all the ones around it

1:04 pm

1:09 pm

anyone hear any rumours of the date of the new babble release?

1:10 pm

1:10 pm

Hello all...

1:10 pm

howdy jellen

1:10 pm

hi, jellen. how are you and Tim doing?

1:11 pm

I'm a little stressed, Tim's stressed and irritable...his mom and sister are coming to visit this weekend...

1:12 pm

thta's all understandable. What yall are going through is NOT easy for anyone. :/

1:12 pm

Thanks for the he10, MizH!

1:12 pm

do try to get out of the house a few times a week, it'll help you a lot.

1:12 pm

Yes, I absolutely must run errands this afternoon...

1:13 pm

i know they mean well with the visit,but after treatments and when finally at home,it is best to keep things as normal and calm as possible,stress is multiplied ten fold during treatments

1:14 pm

Tim's bro is here, but he's a great help, not a hindrance...

1:14 pm

oh good. may the same be true for his mom and sister.

1:15 pm

i am still a wreck when things interfere with the normal day to day household planning...i like spontinaety,but i plan for it 2 month ahead now;)

1:15 pm

Afraid not...

1:15 pm

You and me both, crossy! :-)

1:16 pm

alas, may their stay be short (say not more than 3 or 4 days) Grandpa always said that fish and family both get bad after 3 days. :)

1:16 pm

and when i was under treatment i kept as normal a routine as i could..other than puking in the parking lot..puking at the bank..puking at the post office..puking at the grocers....

1:17 pm

Yes, their stay will be short...but then mom's returning next weekend with her dh...

1:17 pm

1:58 pm

Jellen, how is Tim?

1:59 pm

I have superior technology unavailable to you, and thus have anti-whatever you have!

1:59 pm

Ata, are you delusional?

1:59 pm

*points to anti-anything-Ata-may-have- to-counter act-anything-i-may-use-to-get- away-wi th-poking-her outfit*

1:59 pm

I'm a scientist *smug*

2:00 pm

Nevermind, I will buy into your story.

2:00 pm

*whispers to Scrabbler* methinks shes totally lost it

2:00 pm

Eva is the delusional one

2:01 pm

hey! i resemble that remark!

2:01 pm

Flash-flooding alert here due to big rains all day.

2:01 pm

Tim is irritable...

2:01 pm

Can't seem to stay asleep very long...

2:02 pm

Of course, he's dozing like mad...

2:02 pm

poor Tim :(

2:02 pm

Pain? Anxiety?

2:02 pm

Probably both...

2:03 pm

More anxiety and stress than pain...his mom and sis are coming to visit tomorrow...

2:04 pm

What did the MRI show?

2:04 pm

I wonder if I should try to keep him awake for several hours, then let him nap...

2:04 pm

Don't know yet...appointment with oncologist next Tues...

2:04 pm

Ask him what he would like to do--nap periodically? get busy despite fatigue and then sleep later?

2:05 pm

oh scrabs, you'll be impressed with dr latest idea for Claire ...

2:05 pm

Will do...

2:05 pm

WHAT?? Please tell me

2:06 pm

they are going to do nothing! She thus has to get on with life with a nearly 30lb hernia hanging out of her side, and just hope it doesn't rupture

2:06 pm

What? Why?

2:07 pm

Goodness!

2:08 pm

too dangerous to do another operation. to do it would involve plastic sugery as well, and to be honest, that's a disaster area waiting to happen, as anything and everything is rejected by her body

2:08 pm

someone just asked me "What does your metadata contain?" How am i supposed to answer that.

2:08 pm

say metadata :P

2:08 pm

metadata is a log of everything done on the computer

2:08 pm

"data. of the meta variety."

2:09 pm

Well, i could, though i hate being that recursive, ata. :)

2:09 pm

clever, EvaN

2:09 pm

Ata, then she needs a waist brace to hold the hernia in.

2:09 pm

oooh, that's tempting, scrabbs

2:09 pm

it's too painful for her, she's tried. And she can't take more pain killers ...

2:09 pm

i'm very sorry to hear, ata

2:09 pm

"bits and bytes, quips and quarks"

2:10 pm

up quarks or down quarks?

2:10 pm

How about a second opinion?

2:11 pm

we're trying to get one at the moment ....

2:11 pm

that smacks nicely of Mrs Whatsit, EvaN :)

2:12 pm

Time to watch "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." I must read subtitles, so BBL.

2:13 pm

njoy, scrabbs

2:13 pm

I read the book, and books are always WAY better than the movies.

2:13 pm

i love whosits and whatsits...

2:14 pm

the books are sooooooooo wonderful

2:19 pm

2:35 pm

2:51 pm

ooo wow!

2:51 pm

I'm so in love with that photo of a wasp thing on a poppy at the moment

2:51 pm

it was kinda scary. i knew it couldn't hurt me, but still!

2:52 pm

yeah, that one is awesome. the color of the poppy makes it...pop!

2:52 pm

3:03 pm

hi jellen *waves again*

3:04 pm

get thou to a palliative care doc forsooth

3:04 pm

what does palliative care mean?

3:04 pm

Made a note to request on Tuesday at our next appointment...

3:05 pm

they can help manage pain with minimal side effects as well as make sure he is not depressed and help him cope with all the other stuff

3:05 pm

ahh. ty.

3:05 pm

palliative - treatment of symptoms

3:05 pm

Did I tell you about the chat room I found at the Melenoma Research Foundation?

3:11 pm

3:12 pm

3:13 pm

3:13 pm

duct tape is wonderful

3:13 pm

going to see if i can take a light couch nap while they watch tv. bbl.

3:13 pm

happy zz's feather

3:14 pm

good luck!

3:15 pm

so

alright, I just got back from tooling the dog around. Goodness, Indoor cats seem more and more nice, as do my fish. Nice contained conatiner.

Ata, I have now lost 3 danios...do you think its the water or attrition, as the remaining 7 and 3 cherry barbs are well...

3:19 pm

hmmmm, 3 does seem a lot

Well, it was 2 a few months ago and one now...

I killed the other barb, by encasing it in a cloth when removing algae, and then washing it....

3:20 pm

ohhh ... well, I'd go for attrition then unless any more keel over

I admit, I have not checked levels in almost 5 months. I am a bit of a lazy fish keeper....perhaps I shall do that after the work weekend...

3:21 pm

lol probably worth checking then!

yes, there's an idea.

36 stinky words left.

3:22 pm

go red!

hi lbd how are you doing?

3:24 pm

doing well, red. and yourself? (other than the dead fish)

I'm good, having a hard time making myself excited about going to work, but well, that is fairly usual I think.

3:25 pm

is this place better than the last?

It is better. I am just feeling lazy lately...

3:27 pm

nap didn't happen. decided i'd better make sure we were ready, so we could go out the door when doug gets home.

3:31 pm

where you headed, feather?

3:31 pm

daniel has a birthday party to go to at 5

3:31 pm

it must be the heat, or maybe all the hours you seem to work. you need some quiet down time

3:32 pm

ahhh, thought you might be headed for more fun in the sun.

3:34 pm

it's called "jumping jungle" and it's a room full of bouncy houses. eek.

3:34 pm

oy! i think i'd need earplugs and a sedative!

3:36 pm

lol

3:37 pm

alas, that is one of the many reasons old people shouldn't have young children to raise!

3:39 pm

i met the most percocious little boy the other day. He wanted a book about trains. "but not with eyes, trains don't have eyes, or steering wheels." he must have been about 2 or 3 years old!

3:40 pm

*precocious*

3:42 pm

I once met a 5 year old who had written a symphony about dinosaurs

3:43 pm

he was quite scary

3:43 pm

wow!

3:45 pm

*trying to imagine a symphony about dinosaurs...growls and grunts?*

3:45 pm

it went on for a very long time

3:45 pm

Hi! This is my first game, and your comments have been very helpful...thanks!

4:42 pm

Hello, Champ

4:43 pm

Congrats on your fireworks! How long did it take before you had your first? Please tell me it wasn't Day 1!

4:43 pm

I don't think so, but it wasn't very long...everyone is so helpful here!

good evening everybody

4:44 pm

OK, then hopefully one day I'll be worthy.

4:44 pm

Also, you might check out Lickety's Babble Clues (link at the bottom of the page)

4:44 pm

Hi, GE

4:45 pm

Thanks Jellen. I did. Still have 45 to go. Feeling like a sloth!

4:46 pm

Don't feel like that...your progress is admirable!

Hi all, Champ, I dont even get fireworks every day. I'm quite lazy about it!

4:47 pm

Hope to catch on soon. Need to learn what words fly on this game. That takes time. Maybe some wine will help!

4:47 pm

Hi Everybody. How are you all doing today?

Hello Nef, I am getting ready for another exciting round of work...ick.

4:48 pm

Hi, Nef!

4:48 pm

Hi Nef.

Champ, some people play to finish, some just play to play and some hardly play and just chat :)

4:48 pm

I can do that! Oooh...I'm IN!

4:49 pm

Well put, GE!

4:49 pm

Morning everyone

4:49 pm

And who is who on GE's list can change from day to day.

4:49 pm

well, red; at least you're earning money. DH now has Optic Neuritis, so I'm nursing here at home 24/7. We're waiting to hear about when the IV steroids will start. :-/

4:49 pm

Hello, lynxxx!

4:50 pm

Hi lynxx. Why does morning seem an awfully lot like Friday afternoon to me?

4:50 pm

hi Jellen, how's Tim doing today?

4:50 pm

I have fireworks

4:51 pm

<snicker> wht, I hear you loud and clear! ;-)

4:51 pm

congrats wht!

4:51 pm

YAY, wht! WTG!!!

4:51 pm

Awesome wht!

4:51 pm

Yay for wht!!!

4:52 pm

Tim's feeling icky/queasy...and is irritable!

4:52 pm

The fireworks are the best thing about this friday afternoon.

4:52 pm

Sorry to hear that Jellen. Hope he starts feeling better soon.

4:53 pm

some Pied Currawong's have moved into our neighbourhood. Lovely to hear their bell like songs echoing around in the morning

4:54 pm

(((Jellen))) Maybe if you feed him soda crackers every so often and stay out of his way it might help? I don't know about him; but that works with my prenatal clients.

4:54 pm

I went to get my car's annual safety inspection this morning. Picked the car up at noon and found it had failed. Everything was fine with the care except that the inspector thought the license plate was too faded and needed to be replaced.

4:55 pm

That's ridiculous!

4:55 pm

Did you see my suggestion the other day about yoghurt (fruit flavored is good) the other day Jellen? That and sandwiches was all I fancied.

that's crazy wht

4:55 pm

So I spent the afternoon running around to my insurance company and the RMV to get new plates and then to the car dealer to order a bracket for the front plate.

wht sounds frustrating!

you couldn't just buy some paint and do a little touch up

4:56 pm

It is crazy, but this is Massachusetts. I have had the same license plate for about 30 years.

4:56 pm

that sounds really frustrating, wht

4:56 pm

Thanks for the tips, all...

4:57 pm

WOW! We here in MN have to get a new license plate every 5 years or so. No wonder yours is faded!

4:57 pm

Right now he says he hurts all over...just gave him pain meds, but he's regurgitated since then...

4:58 pm

how long after taking the pain meds til he threw up?

4:58 pm

About 20 minutes, I think

4:59 pm

Thanks again...out the door with family. Back later! Enjoy all...

4:59 pm

dang. What does he take for pain?

4:59 pm

Bye, Champ

4:59 pm

Oxy AR

4:59 pm

bye Champ

5:00 pm

Sometime in the last 30years they went from just having a back plate to haveing plates for the front and back. So after I got the new plates, I had to go to the car dealer and order a bracket for the front.

5:00 pm

Oxycodone

5:00 pm

hi ALL. need clue for to 6 21 please.

5:00 pm

You might want to call your doc (or their after hours number and ask for help figuring out if he can take some more or if he has to wait for a while

5:00 pm

It was frustrating. But my wife just got home and she wants to go out for dinner, so I've got to go.

5:01 pm

So happy babbling all.

5:01 pm

not too bad, spent today running errands and the car has A/C how about you?

7:03 pm

Hi, sgeek and mcurl

it's not to bad down here; hi jellen

7:04 pm

oh dear. firewords already.

7:04 pm

what about your part of the country, jellen?

7:05 pm

at least it's cooling off here -- I don't think it even made it up to 90 and already beginning to cool down at home.

7:05 pm

oh! science! I didn't even see you there! (((hugs)))

7:05 pm

Don't know...been inside all day :-)

7:06 pm

I thought if I babbled in a quiet room I would have more energy, but pretty tired. I think I might need to take an actual, real nap!

7:06 pm

I'm kinda dozy myse**

I already did my nap; actually I did a couple....when it's quiet and I'm here alone anything goes!

7:09 pm

:-D I think I will nap for a few minutes, then. I didn't study at all today. The eye doctor said I just have to get used to the idea that I can only do close work for an hour or two at a time before I need an extended break. This is going to change my whole way of life, unfortunately... but nothing to do about it.

7:09 pm

So I just have to learn to stop and smell the roses (and take naps). See you-all later! *poof*

bye stid

and hello everyone

8:02 pm

Hello again. Do you ever wonder what the heck men think when you tell them "No, don't do that" and they go ahead and do something you don't want them to anyway?

8:03 pm

Hi {{Nef}}, sure I do, it means that rules apply to everyone BUT them, just ask my dad :)

8:03 pm

DH did something that wasn't good for him to do?

8:04 pm

hey, Jellen, were you able to talk with the doctor?

8:04 pm

BigRed did you get the le 5?

8:06 pm

geez, I killed the chat

8:06 pm

No, he did something I didn't want him to do because then I'd HAVE to do some cleaning. He dropped something behind the frig and I told him to leave it because I'd take care of it later. Of course (he being in a wheel chair and all); he just HAD to go and try and pull out the frig anyway.

8:06 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

8:07 pm

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

8:07 pm

No Mom, you didn't

Hi, Min. I've been dealing in dust and dirt from around and under the frig; how are you?

8:12 pm

HE has never cleaned under or behind the frig; why, NOW when he can't help; did he have to mess with it (I'm allergic to the cat; guess how much cat fur/dust was under there. It's been left since April; it could have waited another day

Hello Joanne123! How are you doing? Welcome to grid

8:17 pm

hi min and all

8:18 pm

hi Joanne

8:18 pm

Really good name for black cat. How old is the kitten?

just at 6 weeks

my aunt raised it from 3 days old - the momma got taken by an owl

8:19 pm

oh, MY! How old are your kids?

Crackers will be 5 next week and Tea will be 7 next month

8:20 pm

so old enough they won't squish the kitty to death. They probably will get scratched a few times though

8:20 pm

Oh, I get it! Now I know what the Babble name means

that they will, get scratched, but they are just loving on him and he is so gentle with them.

back for the last of the se words

8:21 pm

You have a child named Crackers? Is it a boy or girl?

my aunt's granddaughter is 3 and she played with those kittens like crazy, so they are used to kids

8:21 pm

Hello Good Enough!How are you? Welcome to the grid

8:21 pm

LOL, Min! I was confused by your previous post! :-)

My daughter's name is Kemma and her godfather asked me if that was like chamomille tea.

Hello

8:22 pm

Hi herinfernallady! How are you? Welcome to the grid

my son's name is Graham and when I told their god parents what his name was going to be, and that I should make his middle name be Crackers and just to get it over with, they both said - oh, now you have your Tea and Crackers.

it stuck

9:09 pm

River, have things changed with Keith that you can't leave him alone (or is ti just that he won't follow the rules)?

9:09 pm

and thanks, got the he and also a t word i was missing!

9:09 pm

Hello jillibus! I love your moving icon clue icon. I can never get my icons to move.Have tried several times

9:10 pm

my tombstone is going to say: " All dressed up and nowhere to go!"

9:11 pm

Docs feel he can go into SVT's at any time even with meds. Have local FD on alert. Adenosine (sp?) isnt working - he needs to be shocked. So we are afraid to leave him.

9:12 pm

I'd be in deep sh** if I didn't believe, ruru. My dad was an atheist until he was 80 years old, then he "found" God (but probably not a church God)

9:12 pm

wow river.. don't leave him

9:12 pm

ruru - I dont know what to believe half the time....

9:12 pm

I wouldn't leave him either, River!

9:13 pm

there are not atheists in terminal wards or foxholes;) howdy all:)

9:13 pm

Hey Crossy

9:13 pm

Howdy, crossy!

9:13 pm

logically it doesn't make sense to me.. I appreciate what churches do.. but it ain't for me

9:13 pm

hi crossy. And you are so right!

9:14 pm

buddhism is what finally made sense to me.

9:14 pm

i love god and the idea of god,its just the fan club that can be a pain lol

9:14 pm

I believe in god even though I dont go to church every sunday - but I have to say I am pretty angry with him right now

9:14 pm

*nodding head*

9:14 pm

My one sister said that dad went to "church" out in Nature. Whatever works

9:15 pm

I cared for the first woman with an artificial heart. I'd had some bad news just before working one day and when I went in to care for her; I asked her if she asked God "why me?" (I was whining at the time)

9:16 pm

to quote lawrence welk

9:16 pm

Her answer: "No. I often think why NOT me?" It really put things in perspective for me\

9:18 pm

I get that.. cool lady

9:18 pm

i have had cancer 3 times now,broken both legs and could go on and on,and i have never thought "why me?" as for my cancer i think i was spared to help and teach others going through cancer and it makes it all right..

9:18 pm

she really was cool.

crossy you are really special.. a very special person

9:21 pm

it is indeed hard on the children riverdance

9:22 pm

River, that's a teen for you. Always full of questions and ready for debate...

9:22 pm

i saw things at the cancer lodge that make everything i went through look like a walk in the park..i was humbled...

9:22 pm

se5/20 to se*** the day (make it the best)

9:22 pm

sorry, not meaning to be callous and ignore the chat. river, wish i knew the right words for you.

9:23 pm

Keith is not like that - he doesnt question/keeps things to himself but I watch his facebook and he has told his friends he is scared - that is so hard for me

9:23 pm

not to worry featherbee,i can chat about cancer,clue words and hit on pretty ladies all at once;)

9:24 pm

thats why we love you crossy

9:24 pm

how is you son doing riverdance? has he had the procedure?

9:24 pm

lol crossy

9:24 pm

it's okay to be scared; and it's okay for you to tell him you're scared too. Just remind him that yoiu are there with him, whatever happens

9:25 pm

yes and it was not a good result crossy - we are now waiting for another procedure in Boston at Childrens Hospital

9:26 pm

I need to update my profile like Jellen does so I dont kill the chog as I have been doing for a couple of nights

9:27 pm

tell you boy from crossy,it is fine to be a bit scared of the unknown,only a fool is not scared of anything.tell him from crossy not to let it overwhelm him or dampen his sprit or fire and that knoledge is the key.tell him to learn as much as he can about what is going on with him tell him crossy says that knowledge is powert and to keep his chin up and he shall overcome his obstacles and that i wish him a full recovery

9:27 pm

*points to crossy* That. What he said.

9:28 pm

agreed - what he said is perfect. And we'll all pray, too.

9:28 pm

damn typos

9:29 pm

Well put, crossy!

9:29 pm

I used to work with the Children's Heart Fund and we had kids that came from around the world to have heart defects mended here in MPLS (this was back in the '70's). Those kids had to come as part of a group of kids with either a social worker or nurse, families couldn't afford to come. But we'd have the parents call and talk to the kids by phone; and that was the message that the parents were told: just let the child know that they were scared but with them even many miles away

9:29 pm

sheesh. fireworks. spent forever looking for the next to last th5/12.

stiddie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! {{{{{{{{ {{{{{{seriously squeezes stid}}}}}}}}}}}}}

9:49 pm

*waves at everyone else*

9:49 pm

i don't think we'll become dependent on pre-determined clues. too many of us enjoy cluing and it also is entertaining

9:49 pm

oh a flower sprite! Thank you stid :)

9:49 pm

So, are well BOTH going to be glued to the TV Sunday??? I am hoping Netherlands wins...

9:49 pm

hiya, Stid!

I'll just keep on carying on and hope thaty it wworks on Bable.

9:49 pm

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

9:49 pm

not me, stid, lol. I could do without the soccer madness.

9:50 pm

I'm a virgo - and you know what that means.....hardly...lol

9:50 pm

Jac we will find a way to make it work. Promise.

9:50 pm

oh well, I will wear orange anyway, and think of you. :-D

9:50 pm

love you so much, stiddie :D

9:50 pm

I'm a horse... a FIRE horse!

9:50 pm

I miss you sprite. are you feeling better these days?

9:50 pm

both of us, stid

9:51 pm

I think I may have to go to bed now, to brace myself against the tooth-grinding snorer who imitaates a set of fire bellows when he isn't snoring. I do love him, though.

9:51 pm

I know, I am the OLDER sister! LOL

9:51 pm

sweet dreams Jac. (((hugs))) I hope I get to see you again soon.

9:51 pm

night night, Jac

9:51 pm

Does anyone have a spare bedroom I can sleep in?

9:52 pm

am feeling a lot better. More energy, more positive outlook too. Working seriously hard in therapy and hating every minute, but it works.

9:52 pm

Jac, you are always welcome!

heya stiddles

9:52 pm

Goodbye Jacula! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log.

9:52 pm

excellent! *very happy mama look* I am doing better too... and in two more weeks will be EXCELLENT (when the summer classes are over)! LOL

9:52 pm

hey tea ((hugs)) how are you? how's your dad?

9:53 pm

hi Tea

9:53 pm

spite - therapy is horrible, but necessary at times. Not that I've ever succummbed to it yet!

9:53 pm

jackula,get him tested for sleep apnea

9:53 pm

Hi TNC!

9:53 pm

i just went through that

9:53 pm

I do - come on over to the northeast of the US of A Jacula

9:53 pm

I am considering making some appointments for therapy now that my hip is better -- have been mostly cane-less for about three months now. I think it's time to start rebuilding the muscles.

9:53 pm

Cross - I keep trying, but hjhe won't go!

9:54 pm

oh yes, stiddie, sounds like it is. Will think of you.

good - they determined his course of therapy yesterday. 6 - 7 weeks of radiation, along with low dose chemo then surgery. That gives him a 47% chance of non recurrance

9:54 pm

We have an air mattress, Jac, and you are welcome if that would work for you!

hi everyone else

9:54 pm

tell him that when i went,it turns out that i was stopping breathing 40 times a night,and it could lead to stroke,heart attack and other issues

plus, he put on 8 pounds over the last 10 days, so this is really good.

9:54 pm

well, that's a better chance than it could have been. *nods approvingly* I will be hopeful for you all.

9:54 pm

Hi there TeaNCrackers! Welcome back to the puzzle!

9:55 pm

oh Tea, sorry to hear that he is that ill. But glad there is good news too. Will think of you and him.

9:55 pm

and this may get him going..it can also lead to erectile dysfunctions

9:55 pm

lolllll crossy, you really know how to motivate a man

9:55 pm

Cross - I told him that already. It seems he's determined to die before me, despite being 12 years my junior.

thanks, sprite - it is esophageal cancer, just diagnosed about 2 weeks ago.

9:56 pm

do you have to wake him up when he chokes in the night?

9:56 pm

Crossy - he knows that, too, but, because it hasn't happened to him... yet...

9:56 pm

sounds like we need to come to your place with a gang of babblers, Jac, and pack him up and take him.

9:56 pm

Sounds good, TNC!

9:56 pm

okay, need sustenance (THAT would be a good grid word). Will be back in a couple... *micro-poof*

9:56 pm

k,back up,who has esophageal cancer?

9:56 pm

Oh Tea - so sorry to hear that

my dad, does, crossy

9:57 pm

what a scare, Tea :( But good news, and his putting on weight is very good too.

9:57 pm

I'm off to see if I can sleep or if I have to give my Other Half 'mysterious bruises'.

it feels much better to have a plan of attack

9:57 pm

i am verry sorry tea,what stage is it?

9:57 pm

good night jacula

9:57 pm

sleep well Jac *hugs*

either 2 or 3, we are getting conflicting reports of that, but the oncologist told us yesterday that we caught it early

9:58 pm

I'm trying to decide if I want Tim to seek a consult at MD Anderson before starting the clinical trial in Springfield...

9:58 pm

3 is very,very treatable tea;)

9:58 pm

and 2 is even better

9:59 pm

oh,how is tim doing jellen?

9:59 pm

will it be very demanding on Tim if he goes?

10:00 pm

He's having a rough day...nausea and vomiting in addition to pain...

10:00 pm

Group Hugs! must be off to my pillows, long day tomorrow. see you all tomorrow sometime.

night, lbd

10:00 pm

I think we're better on top of the pain and nausea, but now he's broken out in a sweat (no fever)...

I'm sorry Jellen

10:00 pm

bye lbd, sleep well. Great icon!

10:01 pm

G'night, lbd

10:01 pm

good night lb

10:01 pm

Jellen, so sorry to hear that. Will send him calming vibes...

10:01 pm

Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log!

10:01 pm

It might be pretty demanding, but they are the top facility in the country...

10:02 pm

need to be off to bed myself - cant believe it is after 11. XXX & OOO's my friends...

10:02 pm

hope i caught lbd on the wy out, also hi jellen,sprite, and min

10:02 pm

(((River)))

10:03 pm

shdy! Did you get the bank/IRS stuff worked out?

10:03 pm

night River, sleep well

10:03 pm

(((sweet dreams river)))

10:03 pm

hey shady!

10:03 pm

hi shady

fireworks! for me

10:03 pm

Terrific, TNC!!!!

10:03 pm

hi jellen, yes, the man agreed to quit drinking and try to actually live

10:04 pm

tell tim to hang in..i remember the vomiting..the chemos is on your breath,in your pores,you sweat it,taste it..it is a hard go....

10:04 pm

YAY tea!

10:04 pm

hi stid!

10:04 pm

Jellen, if Tim is up to it, why not. It never hurts to get a 2nd opinion.

10:04 pm

Ah...I wish you the best!

my hubby has 10 years sober in September - it can be a rough go

10:05 pm

It would mean delaying the start of treatment, but it might mean a better treatment...

10:05 pm

either we'll make it work, or we won't, huh?

10:05 pm

back

10:05 pm

wow that is really something, TnC. Yay for him!

I am very proud of him!

10:05 pm

wb Nef

10:06 pm

sorry to jump in in the middle of a conversation

10:06 pm

tough decisions, Jellen. Perhaps you and Tim can talk it through when he feels a bit better?

that's the best attitude to have shdy, and I recommend AlAnon, whether he goes to AA or not - it helped me a ton in the beginning

10:07 pm

shdy, don't be sorry, that is the way of babble chog. Welcome to the chat :)

10:07 pm

wb Nef

10:07 pm

10:07 pm

10:09 pm

10:09 pm

10:09 pm

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

10:11 pm

just crazy busy with work and lots of other stuff

10:11 pm

hi kje and shady

10:11 pm

shady lady sounds like a song... from a musical...

10:11 pm

hey nef!

10:11 pm

ah man, real life interfering. Isn't it irritating! :)

10:11 pm

it really is sometimes, sprite.

10:12 pm

:)

10:12 pm

hiya nef

10:12 pm

Mr. Bear is at my feet now, he is 14

10:13 pm

Sorry to hog chat, but I am seeking advice...We have Tim's pain and nausea under control (I think), now he's breaking out in a sweat (no fever)...should call the doctor?

10:13 pm

cat?

10:13 pm

my parents named their cat mr kitty

10:13 pm

shady is only 12

10:13 pm

cuz they couldn't decide his name for so long they just called him mr kitty, then they gave up so it stuck

10:14 pm

dog

10:14 pm

I don't know, Jellen... crossy, can you help?

10:14 pm

Jellen, did you talk with the doc earlier about the pain meds and vomiting? Did he have any chemo or other treatments yet?

10:15 pm

sorry im back go ahead sprite?

10:15 pm

When I woke up, I told myse4/7 that I was not going to babble today no matter what si4/9 the grid was.I tried to fl 4/7 from Babbleland today to do household chores, but it did not work. I couldn't get Babble out of my he 4/6 and had to do it today. I didn't feel like making this house ne 4/4 in this very hot he 4/5,so I babbled inst5/12. Plus husband was gone all day, so I had to se5/20 the moment to babble in peace.So I se 4/4 for my monkeys.I had to sh4/7 monkeys out of a deep sleep.I said to them in a loud to 4/4, "le4/4 get this grid done!" Then they sl4/6ed over to my house. Monkeys&I came up with a mi 4/5.I told them if they helped me get fireworks,they could have the day off tomorrow. So we put our no 4/4s to the grid, ho 4/5 in on the puzzle and got lo4/4 of words.I was able to find 75 words without listing.But th4/5 to be ho6/21 with you,I used the list after that to find the harder on 4/4. Th4/4 my mind was totally sh4/5 so monkeys helped me get the on4/4 I hadn't se 4/4 yet. Th5/12 words were hard. Oh go4/7! Look at the time I have to get out of this se4/4 and go get into my sh6/21. I usually lo 4/4 the computer to my hubby at this time anyway. Hubby te 4/5s to get impatient waiting for the computer.I hope you're able to take no4/4 of my clues and are able to find lo 4/4 of words. Goodnight!

10:15 pm

if he is otherwise OK, jellen, I think it is fine to wait for morning and see how he does

10:15 pm

i'm sorry jellen, is there an underlying condition?

10:15 pm

Yes, Nef...called the doc...got him back on pain med schedule...not doing chemo yet...

10:15 pm

crossy, jellen asked about Tim.

10:15 pm

sorry i was away,what do you need sprite?

10:16 pm

ahh,nausea meds?

10:16 pm

Jellen Sorry to hog chat, but I am seeking advice...We have Tim's pain and nausea under control (I think), now he's breaking out in a sweat (no fever)...should call the doctor?

10:16 pm

How much of a sweat is he in, Jellen? Dripping totally satuarted sweating or the kind that goes with a flush?

10:16 pm

10:13, crossy...

10:16 pm

More the latter...

10:16 pm

sweating is common,fever of over 102 call doctor,his white count may be getting low

10:17 pm

i bet he's ok, just a reaction?

10:17 pm

then I think he's in the cautious "watch and wait" for now

10:17 pm

they had to isolate me,when my white count took a dive

10:17 pm

shdy, you might take a glance at my profile...Tim has cancer...

10:17 pm

*sending Jellen and Tim good vibes*

10:17 pm

No fever, crossy...

10:18 pm

just watch him for now jellen,and keep all people with colds or flu away from him and keep him from cat litter boxes

10:18 pm

well I'd say, if you worry, call the doctor. If it isn't a problem, you will feel better for knowing.

10:18 pm

he had full chemo treatment im assuming

10:18 pm

and he hasn't started treatment yet. Make sure he's hydrated too (just frequent sips with his touchy tummy)

10:18 pm

i hadn't looked, jellen, but do understand a little about physiology. I don't mean to sound rude at all, and you are one of my favorite people here

10:19 pm

i was just responding to symptoms

10:20 pm

i care about you very much, while i might not understand, because i am not actually going through it, i do care

10:20 pm

Thank you shdy...

10:20 pm

Think I'm going to call the doc...

10:21 pm

hello friends....

10:21 pm

you know that everyone here will always be here for you

10:21 pm

call the doc. It is what they are there for. Even if it is only to reassure you it isn't serious.

10:21 pm

that's okay too.

10:21 pm

hiya Trif *hugggsss*

10:21 pm

it is hard in here to get in depth,i can can advise you better at chipdip33@hotmail.com jellen,but if there is any doubt,check with emerg,do not be afraid to take him

10:22 pm

hi Trifio

10:22 pm

i apologize, jellen, i did not mean to be rude

10:22 pm

hey trifioso!

10:22 pm

just back from an abba tribute show...attended with my youngest daughter, and a group of other moms/daughters....had an absolute BLAST and ran into just about everyone I had ever met there! SO FUNNY who you see at an abba show!

10:23 pm

he will get preferential treatment as a cancer patient,and go to the drug store and buy some medical masks for him when he travels if his white count is low

10:23 pm

calling the doc sounds reasonable, Jellen.

10:23 pm

oh I wish I could have come with you, Trif! Lovely :)

10:23 pm

I think I lost about five pounds in sweat, we danced so much!

10:23 pm

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

10:24 pm

and I wasn't kidding about running into people -- partial list: my church organist, MY BOSS, HER boss, Primo's therapist, the guy who did my mom's septic, and the funeral director from up the street!

10:24 pm

we are watching Ferris Bueller... it's just tooo funny.

10:24 pm

woot Trif, quite a variety.

10:25 pm

jellen? are you still here?

10:25 pm

I know, right?

10:25 pm

I think Jellen is calling the doc now

10:25 pm

I about fainted when I saw my boss....yikes!

10:25 pm

Back

10:25 pm

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMgcb4J zcOk

10:25 pm

wb Jellen, what did doc say?

10:25 pm

is everything ok for the moment?

10:26 pm

Left message for Doc to call...

10:26 pm

LOL crossy! was that a fast search or is that permanently in your favorites list?

10:26 pm

oh yuck, no immediate answer :(

10:26 pm

lol,i am fast

10:26 pm

no, not in america, sprite!

10:27 pm

**holding your hand while you wait**

10:27 pm

that sucks, pardon my french.

10:27 pm

depends where in america one is, actually. and what the health insurance pays for. *sigh*

10:28 pm

god,jellen i am with you,i remember those days,i was so weak id get dizzy bending over,i ended up getting 3 pints of blood

10:28 pm

fun video, cross.

10:28 pm

just getting back from tucking in son - is everything all right with Jellen?

10:28 pm

here we call the doctor's post, calls are screened by trained telephonists and they put you through to a doctor if they cannot help you themselves. Or if you insist.

10:28 pm

ty stiddles

10:28 pm

((((jealous))))

10:29 pm

hello all - sorry to see there's a problem, jellen

10:30 pm

River, is he feeling any better? When's the next doctor/op?

10:30 pm

goodness, sprite! what time is it your way? You're not usually on at this hour!

10:30 pm

hey jill!

10:30 pm

from here in northern US, calls go to India - yeah....great response....yeah...

10:30 pm

hi stid!

10:31 pm

brb

10:31 pm

(((jill))) it has been such lovely, warm weather! tomorrow it will cool down and I will have incentive to study more... (in between gooooooals in the soccer match)

10:31 pm

hey jilli! Had to pick up my son from end-of-year party at school, at 4 am. Didn't go back to bed after. He is asleep though :)

10:31 pm

you know what i missed most about this place when i was away? Very nice people who actually care about one another. Friends worldwide with no worries.

10:32 pm

stid - he is - still not walking straight up... but getting there - disappointed he cant to all the fun things his buddies are doing over summer vacation

10:32 pm

Back again...Doc called...have a plan of action...

10:33 pm

glad he is getting better. I really hope he'll be doing okay by the time school starts up again.

10:33 pm

oh good, Jellen!

10:33 pm

okay, this is completely lame, in light of what jellen is dealing with, and I fully acknowledge that, but.....I left my glasses on top of a book outside, and a pine tree dripped pitch on one of the lenses. anyone who has worn glasses longer than me know what to do to get it off?

10:33 pm

ah good Jellen.

10:33 pm

que pasa, jellen?

10:33 pm

ah, what to do, jellen?

10:33 pm

dawn dish soap

10:33 pm

fingernail polish remover?

10:34 pm

shdybr8 - couldnt have said it better - very nice people who actually care about each other - and we do.....

10:34 pm

rinse with hot water, Trif. And the last thing we should do is compare troubles.

10:34 pm

thanks shdy. when it gets on my hands I use butter to get it off, but I hardly think that will work for glasses...

10:34 pm

yep. it's the people that make Babble great.

10:34 pm

shdy, that is the power of Babble. Best community on the internet.

10:34 pm

Keep on med schedule...and it appears he's constipated...

10:34 pm

oh that is very uncomfortable, Jellen. What can you do?

10:34 pm

jellen? *hug*

10:34 pm

ahhh, that is a problem he can drown, jellen. lots and lots of water!

10:35 pm

So if he's not a good boy, it's Fleet enema time tomorrow...

10:35 pm

prunes?

10:35 pm

ooooh. Jellen, that just ROLLLLS off your keyboard, doesn't it? a little too easy, methinks! rofl

10:35 pm

if he can keep it in, Trif. Otherwise, it is what Jellen says.

10:35 pm

icky icky icky. I HATE prunes.

10:36 pm

I LOVE prunes!

10:36 pm

I like them better than being constipated....

10:36 pm

I actually like prunes, too...

10:36 pm

prunes, when someone just had a bad bad spell of nausea? Nah, don't think so :P

10:36 pm

I need to get to bed - been a long week - Jellen - in spirit I am with you (moms/wives never give up)hope you both have some relief this evening...

10:37 pm

Bye River, all the best. *hug*

10:37 pm

sweet dreams River, see you again soon, I hope. (((Hugs)))

10:37 pm

G'night River...keeping you and yours in my prayers...

10:37 pm

Goodbye Riverdance! I will see you tomorrow maybe.

10:37 pm

dorry to go off topic, but, hey, tri, i live on the gulf coast and work with wildlife. Dawn is God these days!

10:38 pm

wow shady, a little too much work these days I imagine. my heart is sick over what is happening down there.

10:38 pm

actually, i had heard that shady, and happily so. I hope the supply can keep up!

10:39 pm

not much i can do but hope, stid

10:40 pm

we have a bp station near us, and it is run by a LOVELY couple, and some people have been SO MEAN to them since the spill, leaving protest placards and hate notes out in front of the station. it's so misguided! Each station is owned and operated, and I am quite sure those lovely folks had NOTHING to do with the spill

10:41 pm

i work for la wildlife & fisheries, doing research on sustainability of wild populations, this will change everything

10:41 pm

th5 people would have done better to spend their time and energy in helping. Hate notes are nothing but mean.

10:41 pm

we all have something to do with the spill, I think. but... how to break our dependence? *guilty-worried mama look*

10:41 pm

true, stiddie

10:42 pm

tri, i am not talking about them in person, just noting that the whole thing is unpleasant.

10:42 pm

I agree, stid. we were discussing transport options just the other day. the town I live in has no sidewalks, and lots of suburban parents yakking on phones as they bomb along in their chrysler Le Behemoths, not paying attention. Walking is just NOT a practical option round here.

10:43 pm

oddly, it will probably provide me with many more years of work, since my job is to analyze the health of the wildlife on the coast of Louisiana

10:43 pm

sounds pretty awful, Trif

10:43 pm

driving and yakking on phones and texting (!!!) is illegal here now.

10:43 pm

oh, i thought you meant Los angeles....

10:43 pm

not even the right ocean....duh me!

10:44 pm

here as well, jilli. It is not allowed to have a phone in your hands while driving.

10:44 pm

we don't live in town. to get anywhere, we have to walk, bike or drive. I can't walk far yet, nor bike. So I must drive. but, we attempt to "bundle" trips into town, and I am cutting back on "just because" car trips as well.

10:44 pm

um....no, that would be baton rouge, louisiana, trif, lol

10:44 pm

me too stid. I never go out now if I have less than one thing to do, if I can help it, and I really, really try to help it.

10:44 pm

my brother works there, shady!

10:45 pm

hands-free phones are allowed in cars here too

10:45 pm

Always wondered why you would call a place "red stick"... *goes off to figure it out*

10:45 pm

i don't drive at all, stid, i use the horrendous but free system here

10:45 pm

I like your icon clue, btw, jilli! It was my first word.

10:46 pm

I live on a big hill and utterly depend on my car. No public transport available.

10:46 pm

a free system, shdy? How does that work?

10:46 pm

Thanks, sprite -- I hope you saw my birthdaqy wish for you too!

10:46 pm

baton rouge has transit, it only worked well right after katrina when new orleans drivers were here

10:46 pm

Like your icon clue also.Commented on it earlier.Not sure if you saw my comment on it earlier.I can never got my icons to move. I've tried several times though

10:47 pm

I did, jilli, thank you so much!

10:47 pm

if we lived in town, I would use transit. but (not surprisingly) the only actual park and ride with transit access is on the far side of the county!

10:47 pm

I love your "happy day", sprite :-)

10:47 pm

Minver: they only move in babble if they are small enough. And that is VERY small.

10:47 pm

thanks jilli!

10:48 pm

sprite, lsu has an agreement, so an lsu id buys you free transit. Helps most of the underpaid employees get to work

10:48 pm

Min, some .gifs work, some don't. Luckily this one did!

10:48 pm

ah ok, kinda smart, shdy.

10:49 pm

did I mention I finally got fireworks?

10:49 pm

wtg jilli!

10:49 pm

YAY jill!!!

10:49 pm

works here, but most people don't use it, because the system is ineficient

10:49 pm

Hooray for jilli!!!

10:49 pm

woohoo, jilli

10:50 pm

good lord, spelling, inefficient

10:50 pm

Yes, I've heard that before sprite, but her icon does not look small.I've also tried to have moving icons on FaceBook too, but that didn't work either of course.

10:50 pm

brb...

10:50 pm

huzzah for jili!

10:50 pm

the local towns have a similar pass system for college students, but since most students don't actually live in the towns... *shrug*

10:51 pm

Congratulations jillibus on your fireworks! Good for U

10:51 pm

Minver, it depends on the si4 in bytes, not in surface on the page.

10:51 pm

mostly here, stid, it is underpaid people who use the system, not the students

10:53 pm

i am a die-hard republican, but whining about the less than par public transit system, hmmmmmmmm

10:53 pm

I am considering using public transport next time I want to visit Jill actually - if I can get Tom to drop me off where the neighboring county's bus passes by (7 miles from home) and I can make the connections, I can get all the way to Jill's on public buses and a single ferry. The boys and I navigated Vancouver Island from the port to the island Jill lives on a couple years ago. That was an adventure! LOL

10:54 pm

might be a long trip that way, stid :)

10:54 pm

in some cities (and on the lsu campus) the buses are equipped with gps, you can track them online

10:54 pm

it would take a very long day, and might have to stop overnight before I crossed the water, to be sure.

10:54 pm

Oh, thanks sprite.I am so not knowledgeable when it comes to bytes, megabytes, etc. Thanks for the info

10:55 pm

yvw Minver :)

10:55 pm

but it would be nice to look out the windows and not have to worry about actually driving....

10:55 pm

true, stid. And be able to read a nice book... or do a puzzle... you could bring a printout of babble even.

10:55 pm

...and sit back and relax?

10:56 pm

exactly, shady!

10:56 pm

shdybr8,just saw your profile.What kinds of dogs do you have? I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

10:56 pm

love ya, stid, you just made me smile again

10:56 pm

I could even nap... I don't read well when moving.

10:57 pm

min, mutts, 3 of them

10:57 pm

:-D I do what I can shady! LOL

10:57 pm

honestly, stid, you could do whatever! *smiling*

10:58 pm

now if I could only figure out a way to use public transport to go see sprite, I might surprise her for her next birthday!

10:59 pm

do planes count, stiddie?

10:59 pm

min, the tiny girl is about 45 pounds, her name is Shady Lady, she looks like a tiny black lab, she

11:00 pm

's 12, the old man is 14, his name is Bear, he looks like a Newfie, but is only about 90 pounds

11:00 pm

finally got the 10. Interesting word!

11:01 pm

LOL stid! I would use it to come to the west coast babble gathering...I am only panting to meet you all!

11:01 pm

I got the 10 all right but can't nail the 8 and 9... making me nuts

11:01 pm

the youngun' is only about 7, his name is Nico, he is the least intelligent creature ever, he weighs about 95 pounds.

11:02 pm
