{{sprite}}
how's life today, rubyfoo?
I am letting Burt and his daughter have some privacy (my excuse) and it gives me a chance to escape from the endless conversation about "old times" AAAArghhh
But it's spring, yay for that, and the daffodils are opening
hahahaha very good! Privacy safeguarded? Boobytraps laid? Yes, Spring is good. We can all use the quickening of energy!
I made a file marked private and put in all sorts of innocuous odds and ends hahah wanted to put in a big BOO! but didn't date
lol... we will leave that for next time ;) I think you did great already.
dare*
just being a good hostess
*types 'orient' and 'condor' a couple of times to check if they are really phantoms*
nice phantoms
oh, and 'initiate' too
You might as well try 'erotic' whilst you're at it, Sprite.
darn Sue, you are right! I hate it when that is only a phantom!
hahah and hello sue
Hi Ruby, hi Sprite - I didn't want you to miss out on the pleasure...
right
that's so thoughtful of you. At least now we know what we are missing :)
I'll try to remember.....
must go and be polite! see you later {{big hugs}}
hi all
good luck, rubyfoo :)
hi sue!
I total dislike words that start with vowels, expecially O's
for most of us vowel words are harder to find, for some reason. I don't know why that is, but it is the same for me.
oreo is too a word!!! heck it is a national pastime, like baseball and stuff!
it is a basic food staple
like vegtable
exactly :D
like pancakes
they have eggs, milk, ....
octi is a word
octo
octon
you can plural the 8 armed fish
Morning all - bore da
hi Glan no work today?
hi Glantarell, hi Kallia
hi Sprite
No - I am being present to make sure work gets done - not that I've succeeeded thus far - he's only just started!
Hi sprite
clue for co5,12 please?
I see...hard job for you then
He didn't get the funding he was looking for Kallia - which was no surprise to me.
I have Sue coming for the day shortly
me neither...so what is his next plan?
co5/12: a horn of abundance is called a co*nucop**
he has a wizard financial plan which involves us both taking out a mortgage to buy another property for me to live in, and each owning 50% of each property.
oh yes that would work!
NOT
i have said that means he gets to live in a nice big house and i get to live in a little one and have to pay out £1000 a month for this privelige? Which wouldn't leave me with any money
I have told him to write all the figures out so I can get my head around it but i have no intention of doing it -
well thought out like always Glan
apparently the building socity man suggested it. I can see thta it would benefit us both financially in the long term but what i want to get out of the move is lower living expenses!
yes but you also don't want to fund him living in that house
true....
anyway, looking forward to your visit next week - have drunk too much alcohol this week and not slept well so need to chill out!
anyway I better go shower and get dressed
I was wondering re the booze.......I'm looking forward too
later maybe
we taken over the chog ...sorry guys :)
chatting because i am struggling with this grid - not sure if it's better or worse than yesterday
its not to bad...I'm over half way and not done every letter yet
anyway must go Sue will be here in about 20 mins
bye all
bye kallia
bye Kallia. The grid is not bad, first 100 are smooth.
easy for you to say sprite! I am already struggling at 41...
I had real trouble finding two of yesterday's biggies. This grid seems to have pretty normal words :)
nope, sorry. still stuck on co5,12. brain has died i think. lol
lol epona, I know the feeling. Have you read or seen Lord of the Rings? Try the land of the Dwarfs, Mo***, and change first letter into a C.
that i understood. thanks so much
yvw :)
ornet
Oh - I am sorry. My brain hasn't got out of bed this morning.
hehehe :)
fireflies. A rather friendly grid and no really weird words like reremice :D
congrats, sprite!!!
Happy Friday, Babblers
hi Aloy :) Terra says hi! *wags tail and pants happily*
aw, hi back to Terra , treat for her too.. do you let her have doggie treats?
let HIM?
anything I can clue before I go?
no, but ty.. just opened chat, 22 to go, nice fast grid today
yes, he gets treats, though I try to stick to very small ones, or real chewing stuff.
ok, healthy treats for Terra then.. liva snaps?
don't know those, but you are Terra's godmother, you can treat him anything you like :)
thought airjet was good, but nooooo
lol, yes, I get to spoil him, yay!
lol it should be!
yes it is a fast grid, and some very nice finds.
spring there yet, sprite?
ok, have to be off, Terra wants a walk and I need to get dressed first. Yes, Spring is in the air, grin. Even a little bit of sun today. Temps are going up, birds and ducks are horny and it really feels like Spring already.
enjoy, sprite.. nice to see you!
sorry to run off, i didnt realize the time
had to get ready
hi/bye to sue.. hagd
bbl
Hi Glan ... how are things going with that law suit I suggested? Anything that is suggested by him would need to be checked by a lawyer - might cost in the beginning but be worth it in the end. By the way, I need a to4/5 to finish but am going spare trying to find it!
to + 3.14 ?
to4/5 plus a vowel
make that to4/6 plus a vowel
t + ***a , the whale?
?
HI
trying to clue to4.5
Sara did you make those booties?
hello, herin!
Yes
So super cute.
HI Aloy and hi Sara
They are knitted with 100% wool with a sheepskin sole - very soft and warm for cold weather.
awwwwwww
ah, coffee is done.. brb with a pot to share
Mum bought my friends wee one these socks that she loves
Aloy, to4/5 - the apex plus 3rd vowel
lol, Sara, I know.. thought you needed a to4.5, so I've been clueing two of them.. did you find your missing word?
hot coffee here.. passes pot
YAH but a hot coco would be better
.. passes cocoa
YAH
I have a kitty on me
how old is your kitty, herin?
phantom: coroner
but change the last letter for a find (-:
3 ish maybe 4 not sure when her forever home birthday is
hi sara - no legal eagles yet - very very expensive here
any clues for the bottom A?
a + scottish "little" for aw4
TY Aloy
yw
phantom coronet and ewer
oops, Glantarell>>>>>>>>>>>>>PB !
kitty is cuddeling me so rare
oh flippi ng heck i thought it was a phantom - i hadn't even tried typing it - hope there's choclit in the PB!
maybe some choco covered mints left over from St Patty's Day
Alo, not yet. I have a to4/5 - the one I clued to you - but there must be another one.
Herin, I have not started to do booties with matching beanies
yes, it was the one I clued with the whale.. will try another clue
now instead of not!!!
there are 2 to4/5 - same word with just last letter changed
t + the ghost ***hid is a lovely white flower in Fakahatchee Swamp
a slave bracelet
or necklace?
Alo and Glan - finally got it and wondering why it took so long - thank you both
yvw, glad you found it, and congrats!!!
kind of hard to talk or type when a kittie has me
Sara that would be a cute choice
ae5/10?
fireworks sending me off - have to go, Happy Babbling all.. cuddles to the kitty, herin!
congrats aloy
Glan, it may be worthwhile checking out if any local legal eagles do pro bono work or asking friends if they know anyone in the legal area who could pass on some tips.
Well done aloy, I am signing off now too.
actually i think we have an employee assistance programme which includes legal advice, so i will check that out, thanks fpr reminding me
Go for it!!!
ae5,10 eagle roost

oc6 spelt amolst the same as the tenticle creature in the sea.
On on that note, good morning all!
i have cnn running and it is a mess
im in 4th grade
Well done, Wildcat :-)
morning kap and thanks for sharing'
i do not watch cnn often,last i did was 9/11 but when the flit hits the shan,they are the best with the coverage

Wow, walt- I am way too gloomy for a child! I'm so sorry!
I think this will help with your spelling doing this game, Walter..so well done for trying.
yes,g rating all the way kaplan
Hello, Kap :-)
I wish I could've babbled in 4th grade
You coulda warned me.
Same here, Wildcat.
he just told us how old he is
(I should have read first, I guess)
me too wild...I have loved spelling forever and it would have been great
we knew walt way a youngster but we just found out 4th grade now..yaaa for walt,you are doing very well doing babble at your age.keep going!
do you think if I called in "babble" to work they would go for it??
sure ang
i think not angela
i will be right back
Worth a try, Angela..lol
:(
crossy apparently will not take that as an excuse
unless i can babble at work:))
Walt-aren't you supposedto be in school?
I can at lunch
wildcat how old are you?
darned lawyers are too smart for their own good...I could tell them it was some new, exotic disease...???? Crossy? No??? Beuller?? Beuller?

hi scrabs

sorry to burst your bubble
howdy scrabby
Walter if you click on peoples icon you get a little bit more info on a person.
hiya scrabs!
lol wild :)
welcome walt scrabby,walt is in the 4th grade and is babbling with us today
Kaplan, your comment about an apocalypse is putting me into a panic.
Walter was here yesterday too.
Walt, are you a homeschooler or on school break?
It was my comment that did it?
no need to panic scrabs. what will be will be
yep - sent us all over the edge Kap.... ;)
on school break!!
collecting cans of spam and beans as we speak...
me too walt! (I'm a teacher tho)
what did i miss on CNN?
It taps into one of my fears--that natural disasters and/or psychotic idiots will destroy mankind.
panicking about the future is like trying to empty the ocean with a teaspoon..everyone deep breaths....
more gloom and doom ... nothing new
LOL, Angela
and tomorrow you'll walk across the street and get hit by a bus. it doesn't matter scrabs
hey- well done Walt - hope you find lots of words
second that, wild
i still have my y2k pantry packed so i;m good
who is from texas?
the past is gone..the future is yet to be..love in the now....ooooohhhmmmmm
me me where in TX walt?
I understand that I have no control, it just has been a deep-seated fear as I have gotten older and pay more attention to global issues.
live
hey crossy g-rated remember??
I am from Wales - not the one in Wisconsin, the one across the Atlantic ocean
Walt, my cousin in Dallas is on vacation this week so he came here to Buffalo to visit.
ewwww...11 year old y2k ration...
Would be funny if Walter finds out Wildcat is his teacher..lol
in a really weird sort of way yes zooz
well...if I can't call in "Babble" to work then I should be moving along...enjoy the day!
it was supposed to last a lifetime...
yes you never know walter,you teacher may be in here right now;)
*poof*

hello again, why is scrabbs panicky?
it ok,we have talked her down now
hi scrabbs!
kap you came in gloomy. are you smiling yet?
I had to say it, Kaplan. Just because I am growing older it doesn't mean that I have to grow up.
too much cnn
Sardonically.
Kaplan foresees armageddon on planet Earth.
I made the mistake of watching cnn before bedtime.
How are you Annie?
looks good on you kap
Kaplan, I am not surprised considering all the tragedies this planet is suffering
Ok, I gotta LEAVE now.
Ya think?
Kaplan, I hope everything comes out ok.
Why does my back really hurt when laying down to sleep yet seems to get better when standing...doctors cannot find anything wrong with my spine..been like that for at least 4 years now.
Take care, Kap.
bye, kaplan
i have three more brother
any sisters Walt?
last i watched cnn was 9/11 and it has not changed much.you get the gist of everything in 15 minutes tops,then they spend the next 3 days putting different spins on it till you can almost see the television set sweating
is it japan or libya, or?
lol..that sounds like bbc news24 also, Crossy
Have you had an MRI, zooz?
haven't seen or heard the news today
zooz when i herniated three discs in my neck,i spent the first month sleeping upright in a lazyboy chair with a neck brace..the spine can do funny things
1 sister she is in college
Yep no joy there either..by the time i get up i am in such agony..changed my bed also..still no joy..will just live with it..lol
Yes i have read up on ripped disc and other names but there is too much info out there to know what is what.
you know my brother name on here is lilion
Back pain i think is too complicated to solve easily.
Lillion is a male?
now it has eased after the last few years,arms go numb once in a while,pins and needles and i get pain all runnin up the backside of my leg and under my butt cheek,but i will be crawling on all fours before i let them open me up.i have seem to many friends go in limping and come out needing 2 canes,with one of their feet turned in forever
I have een that name on here before , Walter, thats you brother.
When I had herniated lumbar disks I preferred standing up--least painful.
how many words?
yup,that's what i said
I get numbness on the back of my legs also, Crossy.
It's getting really sunny outside! Yay.
121/1368 points
do you use a body pillow zooz? put it tween you legs lenghtwise
thanks
Yw :-)
ir5?
not heard of a body pillow no
what you use to get creases out of clothes + vowel
get one,it helps a lot
it is like a regular pillow,only 3 times as long
Will go and search online.
i don't like him
T zooz
the metal with an extra vowell glant
Ty ruru
Most of them keep saying they are pregnancy pillows..lol
I didn't realize pillows can get knocked up?
haha!
they are that as well zooz,but they are amazing if you have back issues
I was trying to work with zooz' comment but you outdid me, ruru! Bravo.
and most are under 20 dollars CAD
LOL, Ruru :-)
if you wish to help with the japan relief effort here is an amazing site to do that
<--- would hate to see the pillow cases
http://www.shelterbox.org/
Ordered one from Amazon.
at6? I have the one with the double E
At 55/66 I must depart for my friend's home. We''ll go for a long hike then have lunch.
a and Mark T****, wonderful writer
sigh I'm taking my old girl to the vet this morning. I am so dreading this
Scrabbs, Have a great day
very good zooz,it will help you rest easier
AT6/30 at+ and in bet*** two places
TY Annie - and yes, he was a wodnerful writer
youre welcome, Glant
Will do anything to get rid of this pain..it has been slowly getting worse over the years.
thanks Zooz - that's the one I had - As are done now
i wonder if you can order one of those shelter boxes for your own emergency pack?
oops sorry, Glant.
Oh, no, Wildcat!
Why what wrong with her, Wildcat?
the idea behind the body pillows is that as it spreads your legs open a foot or so,it straightens out the pelvis and lets the spine lay more maturally
naturally
Sounds good crossy.
sounds like it is a good try, zooz
hello everybody
ii am sure our scrabby has heard of this in her travels
hi (((ruby)))
{{annie}}
((ruby))
Hello, Ruby :-)
Hi and bye, Ruby. I'll return in several hrs, Babblers.
bye scrabbs
Take care, Scrabs.
she's very old and has been declining for some time now. I'm finally ready to do what needs to be done
Oh, sorry to hear that ((Wildcat))
that is so sad wildcat! {{big hugs for you}}
i am sorry bout your pet wildcat.i had to do that with our 16 year old kitty last year
((wildcat))) hard to see a beloved pet suffer..so sorry
I am all for keeping our pets as long as they are not suffering.
when our old Rufus couldn't walk any more, the kind vet came to the house and I was able to hold him in my lap
tyvm. that's my feeling too zooz. I think i've held on as long as i should
and it is very fast and painless
then I wrapped him in a shroud and let Ruby say good bye before we buried him in the garden\
I've lost 2 others recently. This is the last of my old pets for awhile
that is too sad
we had our kitty cremated and i purchaced a nice storage box all hand made
we buried Rufus next to our beloved Cleo under the pine trees
and planted flowers
flowers are a lovely idea ... may have to do that for he
her
gonna spend some time with her before we go bbl
Take care ((Wildcat))
and God planted "bear garlic" on the two graves, too
with our little shrine we have a picture of kitty and her favorite toy..it is like she never left
((wildcat))
biab..semi poof
Bye , Crossy.
must go and be a hostess! see you later
Bye, Ruby :-)
did ruby leave :-) wanted to say hello. But hi zooz
Hello, Bichon :-)
Hope you are well?
back again briefly -
Wb Sue :-)
sad to read about pets passing - mine are still sort of middle-aged but I know they won't be here forever.
I managed nbs and nbt earlier but only have 46 words so far...
i finished a while ago..just hanging about listening to music..lol
nice to see you here :-)
You too, Sue :-)
I called my dad earlier - he is fine but lonely - now I am wondering when I should go back...
it would have to be weekends only until mid-May (unless there's an emergency) due to my work schedule.
Does he live far from you, Sue?
His 90th birthday is 2 weeks from yesterday (March 31) - wish I could be there then, but I can't.
tw5? I have the bird noise and the one that is related to 'twixt
New Jersey, which is about 1000 miles. Too far to drive except for a long visit.
that's two more than I had, glantarell :-)
i have the one connected with 2 as well
do you have the tw7?
yes
it won't take twe4/8, must be a contraction
tw + last three letter of that.
TY Zooz1
Yw :-)
(where by we4/8 I mean the past tense of are)
which tw4/8 ue? there is one which is the bird noise t5w without the last letter
and a rude tw4
1000 miles is a heck of a long way, Sue.
yes, I got both of those. tw + past tense of are (which I'm not typing because it's also in the grid) is not accepted.
and the idiot? and the child born at the same time as its sibling?
It is, zooz. But he wants to stay there (lived there all his life) and I can't move (as a full professor with tenure I am unemployable anywhere else), so there we are.
got both of those too, glantarell - I haven't listed yet so it is possible I have all the tw's.
do you have the British word for 'affected' 'dainty'
there are 9 tw
I have 8 of them.
Yep.
I have 4,4, 5, 5, 5, 4, 7, 4
well the one Zooz just clued for me was a new word for me
there is a tw5/18 before the 4s
the first tw - it is to do with 2
of course there is! Should have gotten that one - thx!
a very old fashioned word, probably medieval
well known on this side of the pond as it is the pen name of Samuel Clemens (Mark Tw***).
im am back!
oh of course - i was even saying how i liked him earlier
hi, walt!
Hi Walt
Hello again, Walter :-)
pi6?
i went to go see big momma like father,like son!
the pi6 I have is more treelike, glantarell (same ending as the tw7)
pi + letter + ending same as tw7
Was it good, Walter?
Snap, Sue..lol
yeah!!
TY Zooz & Sue
Is it a film Walt?
ok, just got word #61 so am now more than half way. Must leave for a while. bbl!

Bye Sue - I have 17 left

Bye, Sue :-)

*Poof*
Howdy, neighbors!
Judi, Judi, Judi!!
hey!
hey molly!
BB in a minute. Contractor here for a brief estimate.
hey judi!!
work time for crossy tc and happy babbling
Okay. That was painless enough.
Quiet crowd today. Must be everyone is hung over from ST. Paddy's day. ??
I noticed that this morning Judi. Overindulgence is hell the next day.
co 7 32?
Co/7: wind instrument, bichon.
Actually, brass. But, you get the idea.
oh doh, and I had the musical instrument before that
lol. It's 68 degrees and sunny here today. Our normally "indoor" cat has been indulged and is now laying belly up on the table on the deck. Perhaps I should check for a pulse.
Clue for the Co7/52?
prefix + a j word, judi
i have a co6 musical instrument--is co7 another one?
co7 small crown
ah! thx, une
yw :-)
The small crown is the co7/32. I need the co7/52, please.
co7 type of twin
co7,52, 1st 3 letters of someone who is in jail and come to gether(not unite)
(united, combined)
Ty. Penalty box for Une!
i was thinking that myself une, why i didn't just say that instead of mine??
ah, forgot -- that's a word I found at the flip :-)
apart from the pb word! lol
hi again, all!
hi sue. what a lovely icon pic. your mam was very beautiful! sorry, she died so young
thx, lilli - I have been thinking about her a lot since i've been spending so much time with my dad
it's good to see that he has recovered quite quickly and doing well on his own. i loved reading how he got rid of the trash!
It was pretty funny :-)
my husband lost his mam when she was in her 50's! i should do that with my mobility scooter as my daughter leaves half the recycling rubbish all around the garden instead of in the boxes! lol
i see your step mam is doing well now too, so that should be another load off your shoulders?
ah yes, we have detailed instructions about recycling here but my son seems unable to comprehend them. I am always going through his trash and re-sorting things.
hello all. **hugs and choclits**
dog is whining, don't know how much time i will have...
hi, stid! Thanks for the choclits!!!
it is my daughter's job to do it and sort what goes in what box/bag for her pocket money but she just chucks it all in one box and then it blows around the garden!
hi stid
your mother was a lovely young woman, sue. I bet you looked just like her at the same age!
Hiya, Stiddy!
It was my sister who really took after my mom; I look more like my dad (in a feminine sort of way, of course :-)
i'll have the hug, thanks stid. am off to have diet lasagne! woohoo. tc all.bye
bye, lilli!
our boys do the recycling and garbage detail. no idea how I will cope when they leave home! LOL
hey Judi! long time no see.
enjoy the lasagne, lilliann!
of course! LOL sue
well, down to 42. ((hugs all)) see you-all later! *poof*
We have "single stream" recycling. Everything goes into one giant bin. No sorting involved.
Clue for Co6/36, please?
we have that too, judi, but things that can't be recycled don't belong in the bin.
co6/36 is related to co7/52, leave out a low-point consonant in the middle
*flummoxed*
they're verbs that relate to Siamese tw4/8
Finally got it. Ty.
yw :-) almost put myself in the PB there!
Good afternoon all.
HIya, Gapeach!
May I please have a clue for either of the at6's? Thanks
Hey there, Judi.

Congrats, Judi!!!!!

back!
just met the guy im supporting for mayor by total accident
hi, cos!
i accidentaly walked into his private office downtown.. oops but he was nice about it and gave me a button lol
In CO Springs?
yeah.. hes actually a Democrat and hes actually leading in the polls.
and he actually favors LGBT rights... if he is indeed elected this city has moved forward.. but the strange thing is the mayor before the one we have now is a lesbian.. go figure
Cool! My first inlaws (and first husband) were from the Springs but I've been reading that it had gotten extremely conservative lately
although a lesbian mayor would seem to be a good sign - not always, I guess.
oh it has but richard skorman owns a lot of businesses downtown.. poor richards, little richards etc im sure ur in laws know about them.
the lesbian mayor was incredibly popular and a liberal its such an oddity she won two landslides here
probably - that was a long time ago, though, and they are probably long gone themselves
she is now the director of colorado LGBT office.
weird things can happen in cities; they can be much more personality-dominated than states or countries, even a fairly large city like the Springs
true. im just getting more hopeful for the city
I was out there a few years ago, gave a talk on string theory to the Air Force Academy, but didn't look up the ex-laws
hope is good :-)
OH.. ex-laws.. the nnever mind about asking them lol
some good news today.. a judge put the new WI law on hold. TAKE THAT WALKER. lol
I saw that! Thank goodness - let's hope it sticks.
and guess what that dim bulb ann coulter said?
Sue, did you ever watch a show called "Joan Of Arcadia"? Whenever you mention things like string theory, it makes me think of the science loving kid on that show, Luke.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/03/ 18/ann-coulter-radiation-is-_n_837512. html?ref=fb&src=sp
"radiation is good for you"
Oh Lord, tell that to the people of Japan.
ugh i thought people stopped taking ann coulter seriously
the first en6 please?
Soodle crawls into the chog, holding a cold compress to her aching head.........
I saw that about Ann Coulter, what a nut!
im pretty hungover :(
en + to **** in holy matrimony. *Passes Soddle a cuppa*
Hi, soodle, I have a headache too :-(
i think i must have had 5 irish car bombs
Car bombs????
thanks molly duh me :)
a shot of jameson, in a glass of guiness... u chug it fast or it will curdle.
Sue - Genuine sympathy to you. My aching head is all my own doing..
ooh, a cuppa, why didn't I think of that? *puts tea in microwave*
Good grief, Cos. That sounds positively vile. ((((Molly))) thanks for the cuppa.
You forgot the Bailey's Cos, that is what will curdle.
nah i looked it up.. jameson OR baileys...
webtender.com i looked up for the club lol
Yeah, but Jamie's won't curdle.
no wonder it didnt curdle last night lol
i was already kinda drunk when i was looking it up lol
That sounds like a concotion that would curdle your hair!
my army friend who NEVER drinks... ended up passed out ont he bathroom floor lol
Oh Lordy. St Patrick has a lot to answer for.....
Oh man, I can't handle people who never drink and then tank up on a holiday. It's always ugly.
ewww
yeah she disappeared so i wentin the girls bathroom and saw her feet sticking out of the stall so i went and got the bartender
anyway, molly, no, I never watched joan of arcadia, was it a good show?
It was a great show Sue, and you would love Luke. 15 years old and totally enraptured with things like string theory and quantum physics.
cool :-)
good refutation of Coulter's nonsense (if any is needed): http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/201 1/03/will_radiation_hormesis_protec.ph p

oops
yay, cos!
anyone need clues before i go hoe the yard?
that's ok, sparty, it wasn't a word :-)
"This milestone result caps a dramatic, long-term shift in public attitudes. From a low of 32 percent in a 2004 survey of registered voters, support for gay marriage has grown to 53 percent today. Forty-four percent are opposed, down 18 points from that 2004 survey."
Hoe the yard? What are you going to plant?
sounds great, cos, what study is that?
ABC news. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/support -gay-marriage-reaches-milestone/story? id=13159608
not sure yet molly
Flowers or vegetables or both? I love hearing about people's gardens.
cos: very cool and very amazing, eh?
molly: ALL gardens are cool
umm we are gonnado.... herbs in planters,, flowers in planters and peppers, onions and green beans
yes foam very cool :).. it sux my marriage is legal in 5 states
My SO has been pruning the fruit trees and has transplanted the asparagus and rhubarb (so they are no longer under the raspberries, which made them very annoying to pick)
oh wow: Adults 50 and older remain more skeptical, but even that's seen change. Most notably, 33 percent of seniors now say gay marriage should be legal, up from 18 percent five years ago.
IL just legalized civil unions - not marriage but IMHO civil unions should be all the govt does for any of us. Leave marriage to the churches.
do you live in one of those states, cos? i do--mass, the first
we lived in iowa... after we got married we moved to colorado
civil unions "separate but equal" so not good enough lol
soright--used to think so, till friends listed the HUGE differences
any wi 6/30 clues?
more of the alcoholic grape drink foam
no, I get that, cos, I'm just saying that it should be civil unions for everyone - then it would all be equal, and marriages would be left to the religious. But that would require a lot of laws to change (to get rid of the legal institution of marriage for everyone and replace it by civil unions for everyone).
just saw your comment, uu--i agree!
yeah... i agree.. the govt should stay out of personal lives BUT if the govt is allowing me to get married ill take advantage of that
but in an ideal world - marriage- churches only.
oh, I agree, cos! Before same-sex marriages were legal anywhere in the US I had friends who had gotten married in Canada; it was tough for them here.
anyone know of the gov't not messing in things they should leave alone??
and ALL unions should need the civil imprimatur--minister/priest/rabbi/imam can do whatever they want but should not be enough for legal status
well, if I can think of something, snags, I'll keep it quiet :-)
lol uus
lol please do
UGH helen thomas is at it again

egads, now what, cos?

oh, so Obama is Jewish now? And here I thought he was a Muslim :-)
lol.
she went on to say we need to get over the holocaust
double egad
what's her party affiliation??
I have read that in elderly people the internal censor that keeps us from saying exactly what we think can stop working. Seems like that's happened to her. Too bad this is the way she will be remembered, rather than for her excellent service in previous years.

I don't know what I'd do without babble for six months ...
well, I got a full time job...I guess I can't compain about that after many months of unemployment
final 6, all to's
True, but I have only 5 hours til the flip and need to put shoulder to wheel and all other apt hurry up expressions.
congratulations, mizhoffle! That's a real coup in this environment!
Yay for you!! Well done on the new job :-)
It's one of those be careful what you wish for deals---but being employed is a great relief.
thanks!! I am so lucky to have found this job.
A job calls for a celebration. We shall break out our finest bubbly.

Sticks glass in before all the Bubbly is gone............

Mmm, now you are talking, stidgmere!

Can you fly? Can you jump into chalk pictures?
Good for you Mizz. I hope you are very happy in your new position. (Soodle humming feed the birds..)

Not a pleasant job, Gmere, but hugely important!

yw shirlock
hi all
HI Lili
i've just told my hubby that he should write a will stidgemere, actually i've been telling him for years but he still hasn't and i'm not on the mortgage or house deeds, even tho we were both together when we bought his dad's house off of him
I am back for my last 5...
hi herin. how are you doing pet?hows work?
Lil that is one thing you should do.
I am good need to get this cake made. Possible couch nap insuing
i haven't one one either herin, but i've got nowt
hi again, all!
hi sue
so I had to watch It's a Bugs Life 3X today while subbing
this is what I got out of it.....
A cake and a nap. You have priorities straight herin!
how many roaches does it take to change a light bulb?
i think i've watched that one sue, as my daughter has watched all those sort of films!
ok, how many?
don't know sue, how many??
I don't know, they scatter as soon as the light comes on.
Stid the cake is for my friends 30th
harhar
Baked with extra happy as his Gran just passed away
oh dear!!! lol
cake looks delicious, herin!
it was cute watching the first time, but after that I am greatful I brought a book
We have to go to my partners Nan's funeral Monday
Cake is good. I think you could easily make it no dairy
I could never give up cheese
sorry herin, missed what you said. how sad for him and you. nice that you are making a cake tho
last co7?
co7 is a type of crown
co 7/32 add a vowel in the middle of the co 6/21
Miz I tried to make it as friendly to allergies as possible. Plus it looked like a red velvet cake more taste
ah! kept putting the vowel in the wrong place, thx lux
ooop, thx luv
fireworks!!
wtg sue!!
yw Shirlock
WTG sue!
yay sue!
Lil my friend has had nearly 3 months to give me a recipe He gets this one
Yah Sue
Congrats uu!!
herin, do you suppose it would be good with almond meal instead of the hazelnuts?
i'm sure he'll like it herin
Almond and Hazel are pretty much the same thing I think
my SO has celiac disease and some other food sensitivities (including some, but not all, tree nuts) and I am always looking for recipes for him. This one looks really good!
looking back on chog and i'm confused! herin, has your other halfs nan passed away?
Yes she has Lili.
because i thought you said your friend's b30th birthday was coming up and his nan had just passed
Lilli. My bf's Nan passed last Sat and my best friends Nan passed Thursday.
Uuse you can replace the hazelnut with almond but it will change the taste. Not that big a deal really
And using that Taste.com.au site if you go to advance search you can bring up Gluten free
omg, sorry for both of them. sorry herin, but i got a bit confused with the chat
Lil it is ok
So sorry to hear of the losses of people in your life, herin.
I think with the chocolate and raspberries it will be delicious, with whichever nuts are ok for him! Thanks!!
so the cake you're making is for your best mate?
And Uuse if you click on Aus Good Taste and Super Food idea they are the best mags I have ever used. Delicious is also good but very frou frou.
Yes Lil
right, got it now, head in gear! its late and i'm tired so i apologise herin
Sue : Gluten free http://tinyurl.com/4wg9b22
Lil I am jibbering it isn't your fault
give my condolences to your friend and other half herin
Thanks Lili.
i always jibber herin as my memory has gone to pot!
fireworks!
Sue if you need translations I can be emailed at her_infernal_ladyship at Yahoo dot com
have got to go and make a card before i go to bed and i'm knackered and not in the mood so it'll probably be crap! :(
wtg miz!!
Yah Mitz
wow, thanks, herin ,what a treasure trove!
thanks! good luck and hope to not take 6 months to come back!
Uuse I am happy to translate anything into American for you.
Congrats MizHoffle! Not paying good attention to the chat and not doing that well on the grid either.
For instance your Super fine sugar is listed in the recipe as Castor Sugar
thanks, herin! just one thing - caster sugar, is that powdered or granulated?
snap!
my SO's ex is British, so he knows most of the lingo, and I can do the measurements, but there may be things that trip us up occasionally. I've made a note of your email just in case :-)
No problems I am used to translating over stuff
(i didn't know what icing sugar was when i came to canada .. it's like confectioner's sugar)
Yes Welki. I have had to convert over USA recipes to Aus so I am used to it
<-- just saw TimTams on the shelf at the store!
Were they Tim Tams or Tim Tam cookies? Were they Aus made?
arnott's tim tams .. looked the same as those sent to me by an aussie pal
(i thought they are cookies)
Have to look into that as the US has cookies that taste different. A US friend told me that one
Did it have Pepperidge Farm on the pack or Arnotts?
Interesting conversation about translating English to Canadian, Austrlian, U.S. Time to feed the puppy and think about our own dinner. Have pleasant evenings (or whatever time it is for you.)
Stidg take care
i think i saw arnott's .. will double check next time and report back :)
bye, stidg
Yah then they are likely real deal
now i want cookies (biscuits)
bikkies!
mmmm Bikkies
I just had two dark rum and rasin tim tams
you can keep the vegemite, though
I love the stuff
my friends had young boys (when they visited) who were scouts .. they taught me how to make a bread, might have been something like bannock
Damper
yeah, damper!
I make the muesli verson
these were internet friends that i started chatting with around 1992 .. and we're still friends (wish i could visit them .. they're the ones in geelong i think i mentioned to you)
Ok
well, off to make supper .. happy babbling :)
have fun
back soon
quiet tonight....
clue for the E, second row fourth column for nbt?
en + what tree use to consume water.
ty, zooz!
en + **** the dots in a dot to dot picture.
I've noticed that when it's a fairly easy grid people tend to finish and then go play other games or Facebook games (shudder)
I play eight1 games normally after Babble.
I go read the blogs I subscribe to on Google reader, or play games on my computer. Or read, or watch TV.
I play that game sometimes Zoom. I've never stuck with it long enough to see how high a score I can get.
finito. glad it was a small grid. long day.
dinner! bbl!
Cake made. High on diabetic coma scale
hi all
i am here for the first time today -- how hard is this grid
HI
not in the mood for frustration
Awww JM damn
that bad of a grid?
I have no idea
Sorry I was cake making
haven't you done it
good cake?
http://tinyurl.com/4wg9b22
This is it with 70% Lindt choc
OPPS ignore that
http://tinyurl.com/4auoe4m This is it
oh oKAY i got a page of asparagus
opps. That was a gluten free link
goodness!
You like the cake?
hi jmc, hi herin, grid is easy, jmc
HI Lb
how are you?
i was looking at your cake. looks good except for the hazel nuts...dont' like them, i'd substitute almonds
i'm doing well, how are you? how's the new job?
LB you could substitute it
Job is great
all that hard school learning paying off? :-)
Yes it has
mmmmm. CAKE! *celebrates "whatever day" with babblers* hey all~!
Hi Stid
ha. found a 7!
hello stid. I am glad you got a neighbourhood school this time. No driving!
hey bugs! (((hugs bugs))) me too!
HI Bug and YAh Stid on school job
hugs back
I am going to be bending your ear in particular, bugs -- one of the kids has a full-time para, apparently.
Hi also to lbd and herein
7:30 Monday... but I start slowly the first week with some small group work.
I am just beginning a week off. hurray for sleeping in!
hurray for weeks off!
you still have my email don't you stid? that would be the best way to get me. Or, tell me and I will turn on the Skype
okay, probably later in the week.
I am watching this show on a house that reconfigures itself
by itself? or using computers or muscle?
Computers and tracking system
ah. very cool.
did I see that you are enjoying your employment, lady? is it still summer down there? *dreaming of warm days and lazy hours in the garden*
hi stid, hi bugs
Yes stid I started work on Feb
hey LBD! 5th grade! :-D
oh boy! 5th graders are fun
yep. I am pretty psyched!
marvelous, lady! paychex R fun!
how many kids?
Kids? You get to have little ones unleashed on you?
21, some are going to be challenging... but I think it will work out okay. A good chance to learn how to manage a classroom with special needs kids, with extra support.
9-10 year olds, not yet hormonal, hopefully not too into themselves, still afraid of teachers! lol
more like, they get me unleashed on them, lady! torturing kids is my entire reason for being!
21 that's a good size class! plus the additional special needs students. you're going to be great!
Wow
Crud I burnt the top of the cake
just remember that whatever you do as a teacher to accomodate the special needs students, also benefits all the students
just slice off the crusty part and pour that delish ganache over it. no one will notice, herin
thanks LBD. I am really happy. I have four textbooks to look at over the weekend. AND I will get to pull together a poetry unit. AND work on science. AND AND AND... the only thing better than elementary would be a self-contained middle school class... (this is close enough though -- this age still gets recess!)
THat is what I hope to do. Wait till cool. Sitting in the top bart of the fridge
Woooowhoooo Stid bless you you have worked so hard
do you know what kind of disabilities?
thanks bugs! that is so true -- Mother was talking with me last week (before I knew I had this class and teacher) about how differentiation -- "theory into practice" -- works for all the kids
mmmm. *sneaks taste of cake early* owie... *whimper*
I have a rough idea, LBD. pretty common ones, so a good chance to practice the differentiation skills we were discussing all quarter long.
I will know more once I have met the kids and seen them in action.
*bounce bounce bounce* I am so excited!
excellent! you're going to have so much fun! lots of work and there will be times when you think you must be from another planet, but it's all worth it.
Awww Stid
firewords! at6s were my last
YAY dan!
whoooo hoooooo DAN!!
ah, down to 30. I am going to have to head out because my eyes are tired. We are still using the netbook while tom uses his computer to run spinrite on my mac's hard drive... I need it back!!!
(((hugs and choclits for all))) have a lovely weekend, all! *poof*
bye Stid
later, stiddy

wow. i must be good at this cluing thing if you keep finding them. ;)
* giggle *
now i just wish i could find them too!
pi5 = pi + heavy weight
re6 = put together again ;)
The pi 5/12 word is pi plus a heavy weight jesdraggon
An re6/18 word is re plus men's neckwear jesdraggon
must be different neckwear than i'm thinking, cuz that's only 5 letters...
try my clue, jes ;)
i am trying, pini...but am slow...
re + unite
Oops,sorry! Gave the wrong clue.Guess that means I should go to bed. Goodnight jesdraggon and Pinikula!

aha! and i get the put together word out of it too
np, min...sleep well ;)
heh. sleep sweet, min!
2 for 1, jes! :)
That re 6/33 word is re plus a jo4/9 word jesdraggon
i understood the clue, pini, just couldn't find the appropriate word to fill it :)
;)
7 to go and they're giving me a hard time
47 to go, and listing like the lazy bum I am :)
hey, I listed ...
nothing bad about listing!
I'll clue what I can - if ya want

hey, there's a c word with that get-together too :)

co7ed tw4s ;)
rare that they both appear
ok, there are TWO c words with the get together.
thx for the other!!!!
(didn't have it yet)
welcome :)
first at6?
any ideas?
a + Mark T's death was greatly exaggerated
yeah, you're good!
and yet the co5 after the center of the apple is eluding me... i'm sure it's a totally fishy word, too.
like the spice co***nder
got it just as you clued :)
* smile *
* sparkleflies *
yay! good job :)
Skater, Johnny We4, was my last
thx ;)
is the co7 related to the co6 or should i be looking at a different 3rd letter?
add a 'valve' (horned instrument)
er, rather...a horn instrument
I think
gah. i've been thinking that word ALL grid, but didn't think it would fit. should have tried it, apparently. *sheepish grin*
;)
I kept trying to pt everything because there's one stinkin' D in the grid...suffice it to say, it didn't help!
heheh. but the d is nowhere near the e's...
yeah, I learned quickly ;)
I kept telling myself, 'It's the thought that counts!'
that didn't help much either LOL
heheh
a's, c's, and d's defeated.
woo hoooo!
and there's an e-get-together! dang it's a good think you clued me that word! :D
;)
through the j's. list makes it go quickly!
oh yeah!
yay! tentacle monster! that's the first time i've seen oc6 in a grid, i think :)
oh, btw, how's Rascal doing?
I've seen it only once before...
...it's an odd one ;)
oh, i haven't had any new news on him in ages. i assume he's doing well.
well, I'll take no news as good news :)
yep, me too
