yes, west, lol!
very talented ;)
there..am 1/2 way
wtg carlee

have you seen her lately jilli?
off to bed i guess... up in 4 hours..
I think someone already mentioned the mercury phantom -- ?
nite nite..( screw the pb..am in no mood)
I did and so did mkg
oh well...
night carlee ;)
good night carlee stay strong
not since Xmas, west -- she summered in Tadoussac and now is busy back teaching
will you have Christmas with her bf's family again?
phantom : molecule
don't know, west -- what a memory you have!
our daughter in CA called tonight and wanted to know our plans..promised we'd be there this year but I'm so not looking forward to flying around the holidays
west, I did have a great visit here with my son this past weekend.
oh how nice jilli
I don't blame you, west -- could you go by train?
we have been thinking about it but it's a time thing
and pretty costly
give yourselves a present
you know that's not a bad idea
in7
we spend enough on the rest of the family
the moemories will last forever
the memories too
but then westie you could come to Napa Valley and I could meet you
lol our friends are going to San Fran by train next month
they are having their own shower and everything
what a treat!
I believe it's $3K round trip for both of them and meals are included
much cheaper than a cruise
now if there is an internet connection I'd be golden
I'll bet anything a private shower on the train isn't all it is cracked up to be
I think you might have talked me into it
and you could keep ruru away from any wifi 24/7 for a week
lol ruru maybe they just hose you off
lol west! :D
actually a LOOOONg train trip sounds wonderful for you dart
yay, got the qu8
only looong trip are coast to coast...im in the middle :)
the Dionne's?
<--- just needs a couple of days dart
oh no that's another longer word
maybe they played instruments?

I'm going to do the grid again and get double points dart..lol

second
LOL.. with me it would.
i's back.
I am exactly half way I will do a nice cu 6/30 and bid you all adieu
hi and bye cos
tc west
:)
that was a nice parting gift she gave
that westie.. .such a giver..
im stuck at 53 words.. i dont wanna list this soon
slowed way down with 30 left...resisted looking at the li4 so far
I'm going to finish in the morning.. night all
whoops i didnt know it was in the grid
now i do :P
bye ru
golly, I went to the kitchen for a bit and now has everyone left?
i'm still here if that counts :)
oh, good to see, cos :)
well im here n there actually
I'm still plodding along jilli
hi again, flosey
thinking I should be getting to bed, but would like to beat this down a bit more
I have 72 left now
flosey, did you enjoy last night's bridge?
oh, you must have left for a bit, you were way ahead of me
oh, jilli, it was so good to be back
yes, I did some kitchen cleanup
I thoroughly enjoy playing with G
I'm down to 64
she is fun, and a good player, isn't she!
yes, we had a lot of laughs
she plays a good game but doesn't get upset if things don't go well
right -- so I cherish my AH games!
so glad that you got together for the AH games
me too! Lat night I was ready to quit bridge.
she'll be back with B now that her p has gone south
oh, he's gone now, eh?
I can fully understand that, jilli, I don't know how you've lasted this long
yes, apparently
she's pretty good at the play of the hand.
btw, wuld you open in 2nd seat with 11 pts, no aces, no 5-card suit?
no
I didn't, and got blasted.
but, if it was the other way around, I wonder!
but someone else did -- we passed out and got a zewro
too often, it's just the way her hand fits
a zero even
well, wasn't me!
thought you were being cute!
cute?
zewro
oh, I see -- lol!
she really does overdo that 'iron duchess' thing a bit
in that particular suit, if I remember correctly, I could have gone thru a few times!
It's automatic, like a lot of her conversaton these days.
yes, tiresome
next time, I think I'll say ho hum!
I guess that's because she's old and has resisted change.
lol, do you think?
I do, and feel a bit sorry for her. She has a tender heart away from the bridge table.
she just passed 90, didn't she?
no -- 85.
But I think she stopoped learning things 40 years ago.
oops! sorry I! but yes, she can be very pleasant otherwise
stopped
fingers getting tired?
Head too, lol!
me too, feels like a block of soggy sawdust
exercise class ltomorrow
I now have 67 left and can't see any more.
I hope the exercise classes are not as exhausting as the aquafit ones.
I'm still at 64
no, and she says just don't do anything that's uncomfortable
66
she does a lot of repetitions, which are good, I just don't do as many
sounds good.
63
70 left and im def. off to watch supernatural b4 bed.. nite all
night cosdem!
61
goodnight cos
60
woo hoo firewords!
well done, flosey -- I'm giving up for tonight -- busy tomorrow...
goodnight then jilli, sweet dreams
57, will see if I can get down to 50
50 to go, now off to bed and looks like there isn't anyone to say goodnight to!
morning all, and a very happy birthday, lyn!
Good morning, sprite. And yes, happy birthday to lynxxx.
hi Haz, how are you today?
I'm well, although the weather is drippy again.
sliding into autumn again, it is the same here. Trees are slow with turning colour though.
Yes, just some of them starting to hint at change. We've had no frosts or anything so far.
we neither, though it has been very close. Won't be long!
I know. I do like autumn as a season, but don't relish the prospect of putting the summer clothes away and bringing out the woollies.
I agree. But the colours and the smells of autumn make up for it, for me anyway.
Morning Haz and spritey sprite and Happy Birthday to lynxxx. We are having a 'summer' day today 23 degrees!
morning FM :)
Every season has its pleasures, though when winter is cold and damp it's hard to see the bright side.
Good morning, FM.
Autumn can be glorious but I detest the short days in winter.
the stark silhouettes of the naked trees against the sky, Haz? Cozying up inside when it is really bad outside, with a hot cup of tea and a blanket?
I know, you end up craving light. I'm not so bad because I can get out during the day, but for people who work, they go off in the morning in the dark and come home at night in the dark. That can't be good for you.
it is a known cause for depression. Offices and other work places should have daylight lamps.
good morning everybody
Good morning, ruby.
Morning ruby.
morning rubyfoo
hubby's birthday is coming up soon, rubyfoo, I see... how are the preparations going?
good morning ladies. I agree about the shortening days. It is very noticeable as we're so far north (like you all! It is much less dramatic on the east coast of the US.
I found him fossils and a guide to fossils (in French), so he'll be happy. And an old colleague of his from SA is here visiting, so that's a good thing
sounds like a perfect birthday. And of course you are cooking his favorites?
Hopefully that will give him a bit of a boost then ruby, always good to see old friends.
when I cook, it is always his favorites!
hehehe wtg!
phantom: reticule
lovely word!
just found the cl8 *chuffed*
I like the birthday icons, btw! I hope lyn will find a moment to check them out
wtg rubyfoo
There are two cl8, ruby.
and a cl7! happy
*sigh* didn't realise the time, have to scoot for a while. BBL.
nice grid, love those c's
bye FM, have a grand day *hug*
{{_FM}}
Bye, FM.
Could we not have tycon for a crooked entrepreneur?
I am all for it
I'' speak to enable
Hello everyone.
happy birthday Lynxx!!!!!
Ah, the birthday girl!
happy birthday lyn! xxx
flosey and jillibus also had birthday icons for you, lyn
Thankyou thankyou thankyou. Sprite, did you find that? or did you do it? - very clever either way
I found it... was so happy with it :D
Was it a good day for you so far, lyn?
Nice day and nice evening coming up TY
phantom: erotic
am glad :) *hugs* and cheers for you!
darn, rubyfoo, I hate it when that happens
is your weather good for your celebration, lynxx??
phantom: requiem
ooh, sprite!
what?
It is. It has been a rather cold and damp Spring so far, usually September is glorious. But lots of bulb type flowers all over the garden and my Japanese maples have all their lovely new leaves out. The chinese cedar/s have their beautiful reddish pink leaves just coming out. Can you tell I like gardens?
quit
oops sorry
clearly, lyn, lol. Sounds so beautiful!
rubyfoo, what did i do? Something bad?
great phantom, sprite
and teh q's are quashed!
I love Japanese maples, lynxx
oh LOL I thought I made some baddie. Wtg rubyfoo, I am still missing 2 of those
(sprite, you never do anything bad!!!)
the jury is divided on that, rubyfoo ;)
uh uh
ah, Qs done too.
o ld
I apologise
hi everyone
hello andree
hi Andree
Hello, Andree.
hi Andree
if a practitioner of deism is a deist, a practitioner of truism is a?
for sure
Fine, upright citizen.
has anyone out there a mac, i have just bought myself one, the writing is so tiny, help
sorry, no. Can google help?
I'm going to be of no help, Andree.
my daughter is looking it up Andree
i have just managed to get the page set upwith lickety on left and puzzle on right but there must be a way to get rid of the line of logos on the bottom
Andree: http://home.clara.net/rfwilmut /about/fonts.html
i have a 90 day window of free advice maybe i should use it. I spent ages last night on the phone to apple getting my email to come to this computer
Hi Andree! Just come in and I have a Mac (well I have 2, plus we have 2 iPhones and an iPad!!!). Can I help.
thx sprite will try that
hi Sally :)
Sally is trying for instant hero status.
You should be able to change where the logos sit (menu bar) through the System Preferences. Font size change in View
Once a hero, always ...
hi Sally
and succeeding brilliantly
wow i can actually find qu words when im tired as heck lol
Andree is so deep into finding a solution that she doesn't see Sally!
Lynxxx is a Mac user as well presumably, so between us we should be able to sort you out.
hi Vmachine, good for you
Always invisible, that's me.
not to me you aren't
morning all
{{hugs}} sprite.
hi V machine
*hugs* right back at ye, Sally!
I am not a Mac user (anymore) but daughter is
phantom: quorum.
hi sally and thx, i have the bar on right and its notso in my face , now to change font, thx for the preferences hint lynxxx
so sally how to enlarge font?
phantom: reconnoitre
Enlarge it in your browser do you mean?
If you want to take this to email I'll give you an email you can use.
i love when the good guy creams the bad lol
I take it you haven't had a Mac before?
There's a very good support page for new Mac users who have come from Windows, you can get it from the Apple pages. Would be a different link from here, so you will have to search for it yourself!
a canoe friend of my husbands just told us yesterday he brought his windows computer to the store, told them to put everything on it on the Apple he was buying, and otherwise he wouldn't buy the apple.
sally i am just going tophone apple, the support is free and i should be able to fix the problem easily, thx for the help everyone
good luck Andree
that was smart sprite, the thought of tackling all my photos and emails on old laptop is daunting
OK Andree, but there is an email address in my profile you can use - it's a throwaway one which I will throw if it gets spammed. I do check it about once a day, so feel free to email me which would would be easier than helping here.
yes, they did it for 30 or 50 euro, so not too expensive
It is spt at mac dot hush dot com (replace the obvious and remove the spaces).
thx sally, will do if i don't get onto apple
There are little tips I might be able to give you :-) My son has had Macs for years so he was able to get me started.
i just came back to a conversation about mac
Are you another Mac user then Vm?
heck no
MACOS is atrocious
I am not getting into this conversation, OK.
Sally, remember this: computers are like aeroplanes. Just never open windows.
lol I dont like windows either lol
Linux, Solaris
rofl sprite! Also remember the acronyn GIGO.
Unix Source Shell
what does it stand for, Sally?
Garbage In, Garbage Out. I also like PEBCAK: problem exists between chair and keyboard (think about it!).
ooh i have one
lolllllll! I like them both!
I'm an IT guy for the army ID10T
i like them too and feel they relate to me at the moment
Well it was obviously not for charm school. Now I will get on with the grid.
Sally, or the help desk guy that asks the caller: are you sitting behind the computer atm? No? Please do so... thank you... what do you see? And the caller says: Well, a whole lot of wires and plugs.
lol sprite.
sally did you just get an attitude?
@4:05
lol Andree, if you are an experienced Window user and you change to Apple, it is tough. But you will be fine soon and then you will tell everybody it was the best step you ever took, computerwise
I'm going to argue that
you would, Vmachine
not out of disrespect for your preferences
but because Mac is not god
right now Andree needs help for her Mac, Vmachine, and does not need any discussion about the OS.
true that
The Mac OS is a modified Unix kernel
OS fight!
GO!
and Macs are meant as creative project PC's
which is a nive way of saying they're poofy
unlike IBM or Windows which are tailored to be for business
nive?
nice....
oooh ok lol
duh
wow attitude delightful
must feel like looking into a mirror
BBL this is too aggressive for me tonight
i dont have an attitude lol
I'm actually trying to word this as politely as possible
bye lyn, have a lovely evening. *hugs* and enjoy your party.
ok go right ahead then, i will wait until you are done
dinnertime for me, back later
bye Andree, enjoy dinner
Actually, since I'm never on this late I'm just going to ignore your bitchy attitude
thats an attitude btw
Hello, All, any clues for the `O` on the right please?
hi zooz *hugs*
I have on ou 4/5 - to push someone out, and an ou 6/21 which builds from that.
they are all ou, zooz
and 3rd one is a weight
Slap me with a fish sprite. Why didn't I see that?
oh man, how on earth did i miss those, Thanks Sally :-)
*hits Sally with a guppy* It is called babble blindness :)
now i have NBT!!
gratz zooz!
*Wipes scales from eyes*. You might have cleaned it first sprite!
and it smells very bad..lol
aw did I forget again? So sorry!
hey it was a FRESH guppy!
LOL
That's what they all say.
yeah but when I say it, it is true.
Oh all right then. Perhaps zooz and I just don't like that guppy smell.
*grin* I will tell my other guppies they have to bathe first, next time
Bet the fish are fresher where zooz lives than where I live!
this might be true Sally, after all, i almost live in the sea..lol
all zooz needs to do is point a rod out of his window, I believe :)
And I'm about as far away as you can get in the UK! But we do have a fresh fish stall in the market three days a week.
the funny thing is, i think most of the fish sold here, comes from fish markets on the mainland anyway..LOL
we are lucky here, fresh fish every day.
explains the smell lol
Hello again - was called away to interesting things like emptying dishwashers and filling the washing machine.
I must admit, there is not many fish i like to eat, don`t mind salmon, cod, haddock, but do not like squid, ocotopus type fish YUK
wb
your life is so exciting, Haz! Welcome back.
smoked salmon... best there is.
I know, you're all horribly jealous.
so jealous, Haz, you can do mine if you like..lol
Yep... green from envy. But at least I can try and emulate you. Have a wash in the drier right now.
Did Andree get her problem solved?
we don't know, she went to have dinner.
We'll maybe hear later, in that case.
is it your birthday Haz?...or was it for Westford yesterday?
it is lynxxx's birthday today
It's lynxx's birthday today.
Hi again, back from running errands. It is Tshirt weather out there, glorious!
Good morning FM.
oh...Happy birthday Lynxxx :-)
Hello, FM :-)
There have been so many this month, I should probably just have kept the icon up the whole time. FM's another September baby. Hello!
Lynxxx will be back later.
Love your icon sprite, v clever. Zooz have you got the sun today?
hi FM, wb!
thanks FM :)
we su4 do FM, loving it.
Morning Sally and all.
Whats the grid like today, haven't had a chance to start yet.
it is friendly, yet interesting, FM
That sounds like fun spritey.
not long started, so only have 55 words so far FM
Some lovely finds over on the right hand side.
i do have NBT though :-)
I have 6 left and am still enjoying the grid :D
No long sequences possible, but plurals and er at the end.
true, the only long sequence is in the Qs. But many pairs.
Think I will save it for later on today as I have some work to do and given the weather I plan on pootling in the garden.
oh thanks Haz, got a st6 :-)
very wise, FM. Have fun in the garden. O, btw, our baby tomatoes are colouring at last!
yay!
will be able to eat them yet, had not expected it anymore. Proud amateur farmer, grin.
oh no, don`t mention tomatoes /spritey, my parents have grown about 20 tonnes of tomatoes, ui have had soups, and cheese & tomatoe sandwhiches for days now..lol
So, let's talk about tomatoes.
oh thanks , Haz..lol
mmmmm love tomatoes.
Hello
LOL! Poor you. You could get a whole load and make the wonder pasta sauce of one of our fellow babblers. That takes a lot of tomatoes.
Hello, herin.
hi lady!
Hello, Herin:-)
Hi herin
How goes it?
*wonders how many of zooz's toms I could fit in my car and when the next ferry crossing is* :)
very well, being good to myself today and taking my time. How are you?
talking of parents, they have just turned up at my house..lol, i must do the lottery :-)....take care all, bbl
bye zooz, have a good time :)
Good. Think interview was a success
Another delivery of tomatoes?
you can have as many as you like FM..lol *poof*
Byeee zooz.
darn, only 2 words left and off to the PB. Here I tr4..
have been thinking of you, lady. WTG! Will keep fingers crossed. When will you hear from them?
October 1st

Congrats spritey!! and fingers crossed for herin.

I think I need to get to bed, Goodnight all, thanks again for all the birthday wishes. Cheer up Zooz if he comes back please everyone. He is still sensitive to 'stuff'.
Try me Infernal though I am very tired (where is Jac)
OK the clue is First Person managed the nation 4 letters with I as the start
is that L or i?
just a guess here, herin....lord
could be.... Iran
EYE
How does one get that?
imam
Iran then I/me (first person) managed or ran
I - ran = first person, managed

We believe you mom lol
oh Annie, I bet you are. But I am sure you had a grand time
thanks Norma
we really did..might go down to Florida to visit this winter
that would be nice, would Bobby go with you?
my phantom - quorum
Mom, I dont know..would have to figure that..took him last time tho..he scared me on the plane though..thought he was going to have a seizure. I would like to take him if I go.
it would take longer but could you go by train?
Hello
Hello Mr. Bob
hello folks
Mom, that would never work..if I go he will probably come with me
hi mr bob
no, I meant the two of you go on a train
Mom, yes, I know but the train ride would be too long for him. I wil take my chances with flying again.
I see.
Hi Mr. Bob
hello everybody
hi ruby
{{Ruby}} good afternoon
Hi Ruby
what about those poor ets??? Can you imagine, I'm still a Mets' fan...how dumb is that?
{{mom}} {{Annie}} {{Boo}}
uh oh, footsteps sounding thirsty...houseguests
finally, NBT, took me long enough
see you later
yes I haven't heard about the Mets lately
Boo, how is your mom doing?
bye bye {{Ruby}} enjoy
ekks I just went elsewere
ruby, youre a queens girl, therefore, the mets...I am the only yankee fan in the family..everyone else is a met fan
15 1/2 games behind!
oy!
I thought I was the only one left. My son, however, has been a Reds fan since he was 7
whatever that means, annie, hahahah
Ruby, means they won't be in the playoffs :)
Reds are in first by 8 games
happily, I was in a bar in Manhattan when the "Miracle Mets" won the world series in '69!
go reds go!
I'll bet my son is happy
OK, I'll root for them, too! I'm sort of an anti-Yankee....
how old is your son Ruby?
46
and he may be coming to visit in the next couple of weeks -- not sure yet as they'll be coming on standby
then he was a Red's fan when I was, back in the 70's
his wife has a family connection at United and they can fly free (except for taxes, surcharges, etc.) to Geneva
oh that would be great Ruby
it was always very funny as his father (my ex) was a Yankees fan and I was a Mets (nee Dodgers) fan
phone, bb later
bye bye {{Annie}}
see you later *poof*
bye bye Ruby

Hello, ruru.
how's did FM's birthday go.. hopefully she did something fun and exciting?
The good thing is, she avoided being arrested, so that's progress.
well.. I guess so.. she was threatening to do abusive things to the Cabana Boys in the PB.. that was the last I heard
I know. 92 and not a wit of wisdom about her!
LOL
We're quite safe talking about her. She said she was going to be working in the garden.
hi all

loads of winds...
valle, look at 10:01
hehe, i didn't understand that one either... :( thank you though...
co plus t** is the number after nine, when you are certain about something, you are s***.
Replace the asterisks with the missing letters and it should work (fingers crossed)
oooo, thank you! got it! (i don
t even know what it means! haha
If you click on the ? at the side of the worrd in the list, it often shows you a definition.
ahh, kay! thanks! only 2 left!
actually it doesn't give a def for that one.
=)
hehe, yeah
Saying 'often' was the get-out clause...
ahhhh. good call Haz.
Hi all, I am down to my last 3, all re's but just can't work them out. Anyone got any easy clues?
Which are they?
Thanks Haz - re4, re5 and re7
do you have rudolph the red-nosed re**deer?
one ends just like the spanglies on a dress.
re4 - either what you use to control a horse or re plus the start of the Russian ruler.
re7. unre*******d love

Yes. I think my brain has gone to mush trying to get this last one.

cr 6/21 the first cr?
cr6 - often used in derogative fashion to denote mental limitations.

jeez
thank you.. right in front of my nose
Must head off now, bye all.
bye haz.. thank you for your help
I've got re(shoe laces), re(what the catcher wears minus the last letter), and re(having a look around). That is 3 re's but my Word Stats shows 5 61/62 and the Tile Stats shows R 15/16. Very strange. When I look at my word list the re(having a look around) shows 6,18 but it is definitely only 5 letters.
I always thought it meant more of crude manners
but now that i look at the definition...
interesting.. it's derivation.
first of all hit refresh.. that sometimes clears up discrepencies.
Okay, now I have the same situation with the Word Stats (5 61/62) but the Tile Stats now says R 14/16!
hmmm
how many words does it say you have all together?
It says I have 175 words with 1 left.
any of the other word stats change??
check the word list and make sure those three are actually registered..
it must not be a 5 word.
or maybe it is...
LOL
saray - sometimes if you type in words before the word list has fully opened they dont appear on the word list but have in fact registered - try getting the last word and see what happens
sweet a qu 8;))
and hello all
yeah... 5 of them!LOL
hi ursh
5 of them..we that sure stole my thunder..;((
crossy.. it was joke.. get it?!?!?!?
and i wish I COULD steal some of the thunder! I love storms!
No, just the tile stats. In the word list there are 3 re5 words but one still shows 6,18. I have just tried to re-enter the 3 re words but it sayd I have already entered them. It is now nearly 2am and I am going to bed. We are going on holidays on Friday until 11 October so happy babbling all and take care. Catch up with you in a couple of weeks.
lol,m9,you should of been here last night! so much electricity in the air,the hair on our arms was standing up!\
ok. bye sara! the only other thing would be to just close babble and then reload it.
I will try that and let you know.
good morning everyone
just in briefly, have exercise class in an hour
wild!
yikes. birthdays. Tim's is in 6 days!
Reloaded and still the same. Definitely going to bed now. Bye all.
have a good trip sara
Thanks m9 and thanks for your help.
how you doin' crossy?
may I have a clue for the first to6 please
yes. I guess if you're more like mr bennet

wtg flosey and bye
good job flosey. later!
Clue for cu4/7 pls
hello everybody. I only have aq minute. Is Hurshy still here? An old friend from SA is visiting.
hi and bye flosey
hello jmc
hi ruby
hello again boo and FM
hi m9
hi ruby again
I am tired of hearing people talk!!!!
cu4/7 is like the moment before a storm
dear me ruby you are so hard to please lol!
that's a funny word, jmc, ty
I just cook and walk away!
yw
what??
either that or sometimes run away from it all
people talk about the c*** before the storm m9
Hi ruby and jmc
I made roast lamb yesterday with boiled potatoes, flageolets and a plum tart and tonight served it cold with hummus, baba ganoush and tzatzki (sp?)
oh that sounds good ruby.
mercury is my second phantom today
it sounds wonderful ruby
I prefer conversation online, like this!
I prefer conversation online, like this!
i like both kinds of conversation
The boys loved it, but since we eat lunch out, I'm not hungry at dinner time
it depends -- they are talking about the old days in the glass biz and I've heard all the stories too many times
ah well i can understand that
but at least you do not have to entertain hubby
and now there's reblochon and tomme and bordeaux.
I remember many very long and happy conversations round the lunch/dinner table that carried on for hours
yes, I've put away the veils and feathers hahah
and the worst thing was to try and move the people to the terrace or sitting room as it would just break up the flow.
me too when my sister and our husbands and children all laugh and joked and talked for hours
happy days :)
when you move people break off in small groups
that's true, getting them inside for dinner is always a problem when they're out on the deck looking at the lake
can you serve dinner on the deck?
jmc, caught that posting of the clip re your interview in the papers - was very interesting reading.
i liked it even though she quoted me with a grammatical error
yes, I do tuite often, but this was just too many small dishes to carry in and out
Not always in the UK but that would be the best place if the weather was good.
the deck faces south, so it is possible to at least have cocktails outside for about 8 months of the year
sounds lovely
did my typo keep me out of the PB?
well I didn't spo that jmc, was much more interested in the content.
i want a deck on the second floor of my house but it would face the north *brrrr*
no penalty ruby!
sure ruby
this place has a really clement climate, lovely here
i did find it interesting to consider the question presented
is jmc the most famous person in babble?
It has been glorious here today 24 degrees and I have just finised watering all the pots.
jmc is a remarkable woman!
tomorrow we're having lunch on the Libellule, the Lake Annecy cruise boat. It probably has a website -- very nice place to take visitors
no JC is more famous and i seem to remember someone else
a political appointee of some kind
hint hint for you babblers if you ever come to out-of-the-way Annecy
[blush]
don't know JC
it was a great article, jmc!
jmc - I am applauding people (you) who actually make a difference, not entertainers.
uh oh, boys need me.....
if I get the job I applied for in Geneva I will definitely drop by
i second fmitch
Dorens!! Hello :)
well thank you qu*** sincerely FM -- it is amazingly good to hear that
35 minutes from GVA airport, 45 from downtown, and we have a lovely guestroom, so you are officially invited, jmc!
hello and bye dorens, must see to the boys!
work can get tedious and tiring and disappointing even when you think you are making a difference
hi fm and everyone else... bye ruby
will do ruby but must get the job first
hi dorens
teachers and activists make the difference
*poof*
i am very fond of teachers since my mother and my favorite aunt were both teachers
My Mum was one too and I hated that growing up but my goodness it set me well for the rest of my life.
How are you Dorens and hows was your visit with ruru??
i kinda liked it until i had Mother for a teacher
it is amazing how many names are "words"
oh the lunch with ruru was truly delightful... He knew exactly what I would like, and ordered the most scrumptious wine, and my 29 y. o daughter came along and they adored each other. He is great!
oh no, you had her in class? that is a nightmare, je
so he is as funny and charming in person as on the chog?
Oh brilliant Dorens, is he as lovely as he comes across? *grin*
she was teaching the Honors class and she argued it wasn't fair for me to be kept out because she was teaching it
and she had her sister as a teacher once too
yes he really is. but no caustic humor, no sarcasm, not even any puns. just nice, funny, charming, interesting, and I wish I were back there now (hence the icon)
not a nightmare though odd and several classmates suggested she would treat me better but she was actually very strict with me
NO PUNS?!?!?!?!
*sigh* that is a lovely icon.
*faints*
maybe they went over my head???
I think he practices before he enters Babble.
it just wasn't like that, you know? a nice, fun time getting to know one another, enjoying good food and wine and sitting in a lovely french bistro by the river
sounds great not that I am jealous or anything being this side of the pond *snif*
moms are always more strict in school with their own children... in general i think it best not to work at the same school
well he is sometimes faster than I am with them so I think they come naturally
oh fm why don't you come visit us? we could definitely put together a nice little group to meet and greet
there there FM
brb just going to change my icon
it was fine for us Dorens -- we made an effort not to do anything too embarrassing to each other
she taught at the jr and hs with all 5 of her children at one time or another although i was the only one to have her as a teacher
happens in small towns all the ti**
and I will take your reply in the pb
i work in a small town school and live in an even smaller one... i know how it can be.
i can't believe there are 13 Q words!
but in our case it was in Houston ISD which is very large of course
she, by the way, graduated from the same HS
Hi, is more words working? I am not getting the page
i don't use it so dunno
back, Dorens would love to fly over but I justdon't think it's gonna happen. HAve changed my icon from lynxxx's birthday greetings to a sunrise pic I took last week.
hi bichon
hi jmc
pretty
Haven't flown for quite a while now - used to do it all the time for business.
i think if i get an interview in geneva *fantasizing* I should stop over in merry old england
Oh now that would be fun! or we could all congregate on rubys house.
and then bring you back to England :)
ooooo even better
she was probably a remarkable woman tho, j and that's why it worked --- sorry have kid in my office now.. bye all
i have never been to england (I don't count heathrow)
bye dorens
Bye Dorens
i would dearly love to see scotland
<==comes by Mc naturally
no Heathrow doesn't count. It is just a transit point just like Schipol and Franfurt etc etc
I am listening to the Alexand McCall Smith Scotland Street stories
exactly
I have not read those
Hi bichon
Hi FMitch, et al
I am enjoying listening to them as they reeal the fine Scottish brogue
okay i must go do some work -- someone must have money out there somewhere
lol good to chat jmc, have a good day.
The Scotland Street stories are wonderful! I want to adopt Bertie.
thanks bbl
Haz!!!!! good evening :)
Hello!
Poor Bertie. What an insufferable mother [if you could call her that]. There's a new book out this year
Apologies for the overuse of the !
Oh good! I hope Irene gets her comeuppance. That poor little boy.
i would like nothing better than to have the wherewithall to move back to the country of my birth and find a quiet little town with roads that are too narrow and have more sheep than people.get myself a quaint little place not a day older than 200 years or so all made out of century stone,that back onto rolling hills and dales with crumbling rock walls as far as the eye can see...sigh...
Hello everyone.
howdy becca
Hello, becca.

Hi Eva.
wow.. thanks becca!!! I think I may just have to go to maryhill for that! hope it's clear tonight!!!
Does letting him watch Pingu while I play Babble count as good parenting?

We have cloud here- very annoying, hopefully will clear a bit soon as dusk is approaching fast.
eva! you have time for babble??
as most don't know.. I will explain. Maryhill is a museum in our neck of the woods.. (and a winery) and nearby is a replica of stonehenge\
we are not mentioning the fact that there are a mere 31 days to THE DAY.
Museum and winery - great combination!
31 days...got you man under sedation or he he just in a corner vibrating from nerves?
i have just been keeping him too busy to notice. i, on the other hand, am shaking in the corner, realizing how much is left on our to-do list!
so how many confirmed for the guests?
THat's so exciting Eva. You'll get everything done and have a fab day. Don't worry about it :o)
i think we are at about 140. (yes, the list is still in flux!)
eva... delegate!!!
(ha ha.. my daughter is 6 months from date..and already feeling huge sense of urgency)
you registered online??
m9 -- i went through phases of "holy crap! not enough time!" and then other phases of "relax, man. plenty of time..."
we did 4 registries. all are available online, but we set 3 of them up in the stores.
you got the shoes... so it's all good...
probably too personal to put in your profile. hmmm...
If you're there and he's there, that's all that matters; the rest is all decoration.
If you're there and he's there, that's all that matters; the rest is all decoration.
That's what my dauhter said... at the beginning of all this..LOL
i do agree with that, becca. but we also plan on throwing one kick-arse party. ;)
there is much to be said for a small service..lol i am so glad ours was low key
Oh yeah, that's what we did too!
crossy, my parents had a tiny service with the JOP. dad had a best man because he happened to knock on the door that day! next year will be their 50th anniversary.
Tim and I went to the courthouse on our mutual day off from work.LOL
But what I mean is that the party will be great because all your loved ones will be there to celebrate with you and for you and won't really care if the chairs match the napkins. What they care about is you.
all the money we saved from not having a royalty wedding went right to a kick ass honeymoon and stuff for the new place
50th! right on!!
Aiden's is gonna mainly be the reception, cause the actual marriage will be in the temple.
50.. sweet!
our 17th is the first of next month;)
we're over halfway there!
actually, my "cousin" (aka, distant relative of SOME sort) and her hubby hit their 25th next year, so the plan is for them to come over from the UK and all of them are heading out to vegas to renew their vows. how fun! so chris + i are inviting ourselves along, since it will be our almost-first anniversary. 1 year, 25 years, 50 years. all together.
We just made 3 years! GOt a long way to go.
that is awesome eva!
That is such a fab idea - great fun!
technically, we've been married 23 years. together 27

oohh.. that hot chicken salad looks good west
eva.. I've seen updates on yahoo.. but not here..

it is m jacq was boning a chicken so I put it on for her
hi evan how are things?
maybe I'll make that next time the missionaries come for dinner.
doing well, westford. :)
it's a great way to use up leftover chicken
bet you don't have a lot of leftovers at your house though lol
No Woman Nocry?
that's good to hear EvaN I've been so out of the loop..when is the wedding?
or has it already happened?
31 days. ::beep!:: hehe
nope. no leftovers here!
oh good I didn't miss it you must be getting so excited
what Kap???
escited, flustered....hehe
hope you share pics after!!!! (I'm all about the pics!LOL)
all your ducks in a row?
of course not. that would be too easy. :)
m9 -- most certainly will!
everything will be beautiful EvaN
I was just checking to see if Nocry is a word, as in No Woman Nocry. Bob Marley song.
lol Kap
it just seemed so nonsequitor
but now it ALL makes sense!LOL
Non Sequitor is ny middle name.
I'm excited for you, EvaN!
So, I take it the grid is a slog?
thankyou jellen. :)
not really jellen.
I finished failry quickly
(of course I listed at about 75 words to go
or should I say.. I li4ed
I'm doing failry myself.
I have 50 left. But have to go work a bit.
Okay, I'm taking your word for it, m9! I always list early anyway...
<---impatient
even the 13 q's weren't hard to figger out.
i've had a slow go for 2nd half jells but am distracted
does anyone here know about Bose headphones? The kind you use on the plane?
I'm always distracted! Even when I've had my ADD meds :-)
2nd daughter's b'day is in a few days and she mentioned that she didn't have any and they travel a lot
Sorry, I have no experience with the headphones...
she has a 3G iPhone and an iPod
But they sound like a nice idea...no pun intended ;-)
I was kind of hoping Crossy was still here. He seems to be our resident techie
hey carlee... is there significance to the purple feet?
i make wine m9..i used to work at a winery
crossy called me "carlee of the purple feet' and it stuck
Hello kids.
hi scrabs....still have thunder head?
hi scrab
good afternoon Dr Scrabbler :)
Hi, Scrabbler!
user rating 3 out of 5 from 192 users.
Yep, feeling very yucky.
ah.. cute.
sorry {scrabs}
cnet editor's rating 4 out of 5
I have to be MD at high school football game at 4:30.
thanks m maybe I should just get her a gift certificate so she can choose the ones she wants
Hi Scrabbler
Hi, Boo
oh dear....the crowd wont help
Hi Jellen
wow scrab maybe there won't be any injuries?
I'm a big fan of gift cards...when it shows you've put some thought into it...
I hope I can stand on the sidelines and watch the horrible football. This is "modified" football, so I think 7+8th graders.
And I hope there will not be cheerleaders--they (and their mothers) make me homicidal.
you can read 92 customer reviews at amazon.
I will look m thanks
stand on OTHER side of field?
are they very spendy?
I stand with the athletic trainer because he + I assess the injured players.
the one's I'm seeing are about 300 dollars
so in my world yes. very spendy.LOL
i figured..but there was hope
Dr Scrabs, is Lidex a good topical steroid?
not sure I want to spend that much but I know Bose are really good
It is one of the more potent topical steroids. Is it for your foot rash?
now I read some reviews that said they preferred the older version 2's instead of 3's... they are not as small, but they probably cost less...
oh wait.. it's the 2 I'm looking at.
it is. just picked it up a few days ago + using twice a day. hoping it does the trick.
does anyone know the "ry" clue? please?
I forget what the doc thought the diagnosis is.
ry+ ** the world turns
I have ry + **the World Turns.
OMG, Kat, JINX!
still here,have ten min before i must head out though
Hey Crossy
that soap was my favorite one and now it is off the air
what can you tell me about Bose headphones crossy?
ahhhh! thank you!!!
howdy scwabby
another world for me...and edge of night
ryas
she thinks it is related to my space heater. but the biopsy could neither confirm nor deny. there is definitely an inflammation, though.
yes...snap scrabs
oops to the pb for ,me
or...as boo said
there's a bose around ear set that's $125
Is it improving, Eva?
i'm sorry
Perfect clue, Boo!
bose headphones are top quality items
lol scrab
m has been doing lots of research for me crossy they're for daughter's b'day and she travels a lot
they are well made,long lasting and have a good service policy
talked to her last night and sounds like she would like the ones that shut out the sound
clue for en 6/18 please
well, it hasnt been itchy for several day. but that could be either the Rx or just because it has cooled off. it is still red, but i think that is going down. gotta give it some time to tell...
my brother has that type as he is a frequent flyer
best reviews are for the bose on ear headphones at $180
but those only have 13 reviews.
thank you m is that on amazon?
buy the best set you can afford and you will not regret it
with care they last forever
en + Lickety's is one
absolutely crossy
interestingly there's a $30 set by sennheiser that has a 4.5 rating with 1,148 reviews!
mm 30 dollars...must be a knock off or a third party..be carefull with cheap priced bose stuff,cause they usually are not
not sure if she wants the in-ear kind or the ones that cover the ear
get her the small ones that cover
sennheiser is a good brand, from what I've read...
thanks for all the help I think I'll go take a look
they're not bose... they're sennheiser.
LOL
bbs
and those are really good review stats.
i do not know that brand
Blaupunkt makes fine top quality stuff as well
but ,alas i must be off now.tc all and happy babbling...poof!
Bye, crossy!

Hi Jellen and valle
hehe, hi!
Just went through a few of Tim's clothes...that was hard...
I need a break. 72/104.
((Jellen))--yes!! Do you "smell" him?
I can imagine, Jellen. One step at a time.
I am sorry Jellen and I imagine it was
Jellen, yes that is hard thing to do right now.
Not really, Scrabbs...
When my friend Mary died (almost 2 yrs ago) her 8-yr old daughter opened a closet of mostly Mary's clothes and said, "That closet smells like Mommy."
I have a shirt he wore for a bit...that I'm keeping...it smells of his cologne...
Keep anything you want.
Has it been that long? Seems such a short time ago to me...
10/13/08
It's tough. When I see silver Honda Odysseys I think, "Maybe that's Mary." Or I see a great book and I want to call her to tell her about it. And I still have her cell phone # listed in my contacts.
That reminds me...I need to cancel his cell line...his brother's using it...
The brother that didn't come to the family gathering in honor of Tim...
Morning everyone.
Well, then he has issues.
Must go now--laundry awaits.

Ahhhhhhh...gotcha...

You need visible eyebrows to cock them with effect...

westford, I did the same w/my own children. Every summer was a lesson in something. One year it was marbles. Another year, it rained soooo much, we went into the barn and built a miniature golf course out of a broken bird house, old plumbing pieces, whatever was in there. It turned out to be one of the best.

I'm kind of here.. and kind of watching DWTS. Gotta see the hoff..... eek...
hey dawg
hoff was eek yes
thought the Hoff was out?
who do you like m9?
( she's watching online..dont spoil for her)
uuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhh...
(oh.. I already heard he's off..but i still gotta see the train wreck!LOL)
something about Lacey Schwimmer annoys me.
ok...yes..was train wreck
and cho was a train wreck too
I thought he'd be a good dancer, given his disco background.
Hi dc, not paying attention to the chog.
bristol was my " surprise..man that chick has legs and considering no..."performance" experience like "performers" crap she did well
hi gramma stidy
yes.. Ihaven't seen her yet...
she did nicely
re 6/27?
bristol has experience spreading her legs
sorry :)
I'm so unconnected with popular culture..I don't even know who many of the 'stars' are each season.
oohhhh... but she's a teen advocate or something... I forget what they called her..
just clued it cos... think sparkly discs on constume change first letter
just clued it cos... think sparkly discs on constume change first letter
re6 -- like sparkly thing on a good dress, cosdem
i guess the croque in croque monsieur doesn't count as English.
bristol as in bristol palin, sarahs daughter right?
wast of carbon, that one, IMHO
tys carlee and seain!
yes. I know who SHE is..
oh i was making sure i was talking about the right bristol :)
i see bristol and think of the city on the border of VA/TN
dc..i wanted to hate her.... she did well
dc..i wanted to hate her.... she did well
hey for an athlete this basketball player is holding his head up!! (they usually look all bound up)
its not her fault sarah is her mother but doesnt mean she has to be like her
i'm sure she has some redeeming qualities as a human, despite her mother.
indeed, cosdem
i had the eye rolls ready....and fox ( the bball player...) HUNK!!!!
but i am now rooting for bristol...
re 7/40?
to return in kind, cosdem
seain did u see the amateur video where sarah and bristol were mocking a teacher in alaska a few weeks ago?
or, ;) re7 so!
no i did not, cosdem
it was rather tacky
when the teacher told them she was a teacher they rolled their eyes and mocked them
huh. that lightening was close. i guess we'll get some more rain before these cells are through.
how typically anti-intellectual of a shocking % of the populace
ty seain!

i'm so glad i live where i do, much less of that around here
i must have missed it
i live in the most conservative county in the states :(
i miss living in DC
i like my lower taxes and lower insurance back here in Northern VA, though i enjoyed my years in DC
you have better weather in summer though cosdem
everyone has better summers than we do, dan :/
true enough dcs
not me dc
lol im from chicago originally and it surprised me how DC would shut down for like 1 inch of snow while in chicago things are open
point, carlee, though i meant in terms of weather :)
dan, is your little one teething yet?
And fireworks
so did i dc...so did i...summer is 6 weeks long here temp wise
just in time to watch The Middle then Law and Order: SVU

hi, kje
she is sooo elegant looking
congrats, champ
yay champ
*~*~POMPOM TWIRL~*~* for champ
thx carlee! that makes me feel very celebrity-ish!
she's alMOST elegant looking... they'll expect her to get her arms a little more under control .. but wow.. for first time!
and she's SO cute!!!!!!
dc..i did a chicken dinner in 1 pan.... potaoes..onions..mushrooms..stuffing with chicken breasts on top and chicken broth poured over...
(of course I loved her as Cinderella)
for first nite m9...she did really well
corn on side and some left over turkey gravy i had frozen....and i was still hungry??????
yes she did!!!
Hello everyone. I am still trying to figure out what else I want to eat...

*sets out towells to catch Kje's hair while she pulls it out *
hi, red
got any refried beans??
red... u come on over and sit by me..i have same trouble tonight
why am I pullig hair?
no beans. I may have taken one extra tablet too many of ibuprofen, and my stomach feels upset, but I think it is psychosomatic.
wow... she DID get the hip jiggle down! Go Bristol!
u see....and LOOk at her legs..len even comments about how she flexes the knees
you started this grid.. (now will patiently wait)
May I please have a clue for tr5-10? Thanks

someone who try-s something gap
she is on dancing with the stars ow?
Thanks much, carleekat.

hmmm.... I don't know what it does for her advocacy work.. I'm sure the comedians are having a field day.
And ruru also.
we are kje..and i swear on my children's lives i went into watching the season with the eye rolls ready and wanting to hate her....
man, why do these stupid kids keep putting themselves in the limelight
ty, carlee for both those
Hello again kids.
but...she did really well....i cant take that from her...
it is't that I thik she couldn't dance... I just don't see the appeal of cotinually putting yourself out there to get attacked
hi scrabs....how was the football match?
really.. I heard Monica Lewinski just bought a Dry Cleaners
ah.. I'm going to save 2nd half for later.. the Hoff will just have to wait...
what are the chances of that?
ok.. off to visit with my honey...
hi scrabs
Not too bad. Not great football--7th + 8th graders, but they were cute to watch--excited to be playing on the high school field. Lots of minor injuries to attend to--bruises + sprains.
hoff is last

when my dtr. was 8 months old, I took her in to the ER (in Msla, Jilly! --we were visiting) because she wouldn't stop crying and screaming and I thought that she *must* be sick. The doc there told me she was perfectly fine; I just had to learn to sell her on the street corner every so often

Thanks once again, bethn.
LOL...oh neff! What an Msla experience!
she was 7 before she figured out I couldn't really do that legally
hi jilli!
when trav was 3 mos old he was beside himself crying... I tried everything , rocking feeding, then did the diaper thing, when we took of the diaper, a hair had tied itself around his penis and made a little bubble of skin. we couldnt get ti off so off to the er. the dr looked at it, said " pig s in a blanket" splashed it with icy saline, everything shrivelled, and the hair came off
I used to threaten mine with stopping the car and dropping them off....
a multiple hundred dollar stand up comedy routine

JIlly, I DID stop the car and kicked them out! I made them run 1/4 mile before they were allowed back in!

I don't have an iPod yet. Went to get one, was told a new version is imminent therefore there is a shortage. Marketing, y'know.
its hard to do a grid this late, your mind does not want to think this hard, let alone upside down and sideways. My family prefers fried fish with chili sauce
su6?
i don't ipod everyone else in the family has one i radio
most su4
Indeed, bethn, especially after tee martoonies and a big glass of shiraz-malbec.
I radio too, beth!
su4 + abbr for thank you
I can attest with su6 that you will receive a payment
ru, could you recommend a nice wine to go with my ever expanding fish dinner?
fancy martoonies or straight vodka and a twist?
do you have any nice sauvignon blancs?
what kind of fish
not sure...probably need to check the PB at the rate I'm going!
sy4? another fish?
I would recommend a nice Sauv Blanc or a crisp Chardonnay.
got it!

I'm not sure but I think Christmas comes once a month now
* blink * don't tell me that...I will owe a lot of presents!!!
I don't like the way that sounds
seems like yesterday I was putting away the decorations
No one at home but me and the dog to impress with fancy decor...so I don't worry much about them anymore.
hello friends. I had a very BAD mama evening, but a good teacher day, and tom made me some sore-throat-cough pirate medicine... which took ALL the hairs of my *ahem* "chest" and lungs and eyeballs and...
hi stid
oh my, stid...hope you feel better!!!
hi ((stid))
hey pini. how's camo boy doing? (need some happy kid tales)
and mcurl has a new grand!!!
she texted me today
or is that txted?

Well, he's starting to walk...and dau is trying to teach him to say, "Nonna"! :)
I am SO not "with" IM/text verbiage
make you glad you didn't kill your children
woo-hoo!! a walking talking invisible camo=grand!
* giggle *
hi all, and my phantom is quartet
hi book
hello book
today, the riot act was read... and NOT discussed. He just sat there and took it. He _might_ live long enough to make me a grand...
hey gwen!
can i finish in 10 mins??? nope!
go gwen go! LOL
anyway, I just wanted to pop in and see a few friendly, non-adolescent "faces"
what's wrong stid?
* grinning g'ma face here *
(kids moved out awhile back)
this face is on medicare now lol
Oh, and Koda has a great non-adolescent smile, too! :)
ack, just found a real word that is embarrassingly close to my phantom . . .
he wasn't where he was supposed to be, or the alternate place; hadn't contacted anyone; finally -- after four hours ended up at home while his father and I were in town (30-40 min away) looking for him.
oh man you must have wanted to spit
oh, stid! :(
Qs are Quaskulated
nothing new, just the last straw. Tomorrow my cooperating teacher is out of town. I HAVE to be there, and I HAVE to be "up" for teaching.
go gwen go! (qo qwen qo?)
I have faith in you, stid!!!
qu5!
and I spent an extra hour and a half driving around... on top of my already long commute. *grumble* WITH a headcold.
And no supper...
which one, book?
me too you'll be the teacher they will always remember fondly
rhymes with not dark
he lost his cell phone several weeks ago, too. not that it matters, usually when he does stupid things like this he doesn't turn the phone on anyway
LOL west! from your typing to any deity who's reading!
my new phantom: curtsey
*bows to gwen*
and I can feel that "cough medicine" working... better head to sleepy-bye land.
one of my bank questions is to name my favorite teacher and I didn't even hesitate..that was in 7th grade
take care, stid...sleep well ;)
gwen look again
thanks all *hugs, choclits and cough medicine for all* will see you tomorrow evening, hopefully in a better mood and more alert. *poof*
(looks again . . . nothing happens)
sleep well stid
