a new toy Jilli - nice

2:19 am

darn, can't sleep, so will babble on for a bit, til I get drowsy

2:19 am

as usual jil, your profile story is great... what an interesting art form

2:19 am

i have to go to work now and my pc just rbooted itself. i will see some of you later

2:20 am

nite kaz

2:20 am

bye Kazz

2:20 am

came back to a long page full of red boxes, did anyone else have problems?

2:20 am

hi again flosey -- after the hiccup, lo and behold, the right list came up in Expert on the desktop.

2:20 am

wow, that's great jilli

2:20 am

Thanks, sammysmom

2:21 am

now that i have bitched a little... am off to bed with thomas jefferson

2:21 am

WELL!!!

2:21 am

nite all

2:21 am

have fun with tom, smom!

2:22 am

thanks poof

2:22 am

flosey -- I think we now get those boxes at hiccup time. I got some too.

2:22 am

Bye Sammysmom

2:23 am

oh, that really is strange, jilli

2:23 am

and hiccup time is getting longer and longer

2:23 am

yes it is, lyn, use to be only a couple of minutes

2:24 am

I'm still conceerned that the desktop doesn't do Babble smoothly. Maybe it needs reinstalling or something.

2:26 am

yippee -- got the st10 so I have nbs at last

2:27 am

wtg jilli

2:29 am

BBL taking St** for walk b4 it gets too cold

2:31 am

just got it too jilli, had the words before and after, made it a bit easier

2:31 am

ttfn lyn

2:31 am

can't find the 8 and 9 though

2:32 am

flosey, that's why I don't ry to get the long words right at the beginning

2:33 am

nor I, but I have the words all around them

2:34 am

I haven't got the 8 and 9 either -- won't have much time at all tmw -- haircut, shopping, Happy Hour...

2:35 am

oh boy, busy day, I have carpet bowling in the morning, no plans for afternoon, except should pop up to see Sharon

2:35 am

Is she still talking?

2:36 am

good morning

2:36 am

hello ruby

2:36 am

yes, it's amazing jilli

2:36 am

good morning ruby

2:37 am

it's wonderful, flosey -- what a differnce it must make to her and everyone else

2:37 am

oh yes, she went through packs and packs of typing paper

2:37 am

you could see her mouth moving as if she was sounding out the words

2:38 am

this looks like a lovely grid

2:38 am

so strange

2:38 am

it was caused by a stroke, jilli

2:39 am

it's not too bad, ruby -- gremlinn finished in about half an hour

2:39 am

just shows that even after a stroke things can heal

2:40 am

yes, for sure - she practiced a great deal

Morning all how many words today please

2:40 am

I will probably get to half and nbt as usual....that is a bad story about the girl with the stroke. When my mother was abut 83 she had a series of strokes which left her speechless but, for a long while, still totally cognizant. It was terribly sad to see her desire to communicate

2:40 am

sit down first, sandra, 405!

2:40 am

hello sandra

clue for the 10s please

My my I will be here all day and not get any housework done!!!!

2:41 am

oh what a terrible shme, sandra, lol!

2:42 am

*shame

2:42 am

sounds like a good plan, sandra, housework, bah humbug!

2:44 am

soometimes I enter something in here and it just disappears!

2:45 am

that's odd

2:45 am

has happened 3 times tonight, have not seen that before

2:46 am

and I'm going to disappear now -- goodnight all!...*poof* (255/150, nbt/nbs)

2:46 am

was afraid it would come through as a duplicate

2:46 am

goodnight jilli, and good for you, I'm nowhere near that

2:47 am

bye jilli!

2:48 am

oh what bliss a day off and a large grid!!!

2:51 am

Good morning everyone:) time for coffee and catch up with grid whilst at work lol

6:03 am

hello, back from lunch

6:05 am

happy birthday, mummy, mine is Sunday

6:05 am

lots of April birthdays! I have 4 friends with same birthday

6:06 am

wildcat's b-day is Sunday, too

6:07 am

hello trif! that is very quick for nbt

6:18 am

what is nbt?

6:18 am

no blank tiles, when you have a word for each box. and hello sue!

no blank tiles

6:18 am

hi lady

hi ruby

6:19 am

hello ruby

6:19 am

ella

6:19 am

doh

6:19 am

lol wrong box

6:20 am

but add the beginning of hevenly bodies.....

6:20 am

good morning - that's my sister's name - st 6

6:21 am

hello JBV!

6:21 am

also st 8 with an adjective ending

6:21 am

hi ruby!

6:21 am

how are you, JBV?

6:21 am

Is it spring?

6:21 am

I'm fine, ruby - still waiting for spring -

6:22 am

the forsythia are in bloom, robins are on the lawn, but it's still cold here - in the 40s today

6:22 am

here it is full spring but chilly. It was warmer in January, but lovely for making the flowers last

6:22 am

daffs are finished, tulips almost, fruit trees still in flower -- lovely

6:22 am

I have fresh daffodils from my garden on the kitchen table - but I don't like how they smell

6:23 am

yes fruit trees are beautiful now, I have a pear and a cherry out front

6:23 am

my forsythia didn't flower, just getting leaves -- weird

6:23 am

and the wisteria are opening but very slowly

6:23 am

I love wisteria

6:23 am

I tried for a couple of years, but couldn't grow a healthy pear

6:23 am

that's happened to me with one bush. I started pruning it more and the next spring it bloomed

6:23 am

me, too

6:24 am

{{bichon}}

6:24 am

you Know Wisteria was the name of our Hunter College yearbook - it seems there used to be a wisteria vine somewhere on 68th st. , long gone by the time I got there :)

6:24 am

each plant is different - you have to learn how and when to prune - I made several mistakes with my hydrangea before I got it

6:24 am

when did you graduate, JBV. You and me and bichon are all NYC graduates!

6:24 am

I am so happy to see this big grid today -- because it is the first day of my first ever VACATION from work (I have one week off...)

6:24 am

1971 ruby - a lifetime ago

6:24 am

yay Trif -

6:24 am

yay for trif's vacation!

6:25 am

I went to Queens Colle

6:25 am

I thought you weren't supposed to prune a hydrangea, ever

6:25 am

trif, I don't know if you saw my message the other day - I wanted to congratulate you and your son on his wonderful accomplishment - bask in the glory! you both deserve it!

6:25 am

yes, a couple of years after me, bichon

6:25 am

I know! I was getting so BURNED OUT, I really need this break

6:25 am

my friend Andrea Kulin went to Hunter a little after me

6:25 am

thanks JBV! I hadn't seen that, was it in here?

6:25 am

or on FB?

6:26 am

yes but I guess you had just left

6:26 am

I lost 5 hydrangeas when our friend dug us out in Dec and dumped all the snow on the plants.....

6:26 am

no, I'm not on FB - I think about it but have not taken the plunge

6:26 am

do tell me the good news about it, Trif

6:26 am

well, thank you then. Things in that quarter are actually a little strange. See, it has just been a run of Primo achievements lately, and I can sense the girls are getting sort of put out, but it is just the way events fell...

6:26 am

I am left with two white ones and the only pruning they get is when I pick the flowers

6:27 am

well, then, tell the girls to get busy :)

6:27 am

{{annie}} is your friend rested up?

6:27 am

he got into college, got a HUGE scholarship, had his senior AP art show open, turned 18, passed his Eagle Scout board of review, etc. And then in June he graduates

6:27 am

Yes, ruby, me too. I madethe mistake of pruning one

6:28 am

did it die?

6:28 am

Ruby, mine bloomed for the first time ever last year, and I about fainted from delight.

6:28 am

(((ruby))) yes and we are off to either the Metrop Mus. of Art or the Brooklyn Museum....depends on how mich driving I want to do

6:28 am

oh, good news about the scholarship - I hadn't heard that - that's wonderful

6:28 am

I have a hydrangea which has raspberry colored flowers

6:28 am

thats very unusual bichon!

6:28 am

I love hydrangeas, but can only grow red or white here, it is too acid for blue

6:28 am

Thanks jbv, again....

6:28 am

I love hydrangeas - you can dry them very easily, too = they look great in dried arrangements

6:29 am

where will he be going to school, trif?

6:29 am

yes, but the one white plant gets so many flowers that I can give away armloads!

6:29 am

did you try rusty metal, ruby? I put a length of gross old rusty chain around my hydrangeas, and the blooms are a brilliant blue

6:29 am

The Massachusetts College of Art and Design, jbv

6:30 am

that's a great idea but, unfortunately, my pink and red ones were all killed in Dec

6:30 am

good idea Trif. I'll try it

6:30 am

I tried chemicals, but it didn't work

6:30 am

very exciting, Trif - enjoy it

6:30 am

that is all good news, trif, the girls will just have to catch up!

6:31 am

I am so sorry about your hydrangeas ruby. I have yet to take a full measure of what lived and what didn't in my yard. It's on my to-do list for vaca.

6:31 am

my yard is juuuuuust now waking up from its long winters nap

6:31 am

at least my roses seem intact

6:31 am

I've passed the halfway mark - breakfast time - see you later

6:31 am

fortunately, the hydrangeas are not visible,; they are on the side of the house so are just for cutting

6:31 am

bye JBV!

6:32 am

au revoir, ruby

6:32 am

the roses are budding as are the peonies

6:32 am

I have an enormous pile of stuff that needs to be burned, and it's absolutely soaking wet out there, so I am pretty much in the soup there

6:32 am

bye jbv! have a good rest

6:32 am

a bientot, JBV

6:32 am

of course, that's what I meant, ruby :)

6:33 am

I bought a new saw this year, and I am IN LOVE with it - there are some overgrown trees out there that should be very, very afraid right about now

6:33 am

one year, my husband tried burning leaves and set a buddleia and a pampas grass on fire,. The buddleia then had babies all over the yard (about 11) and the pampas doubled in size. Perhpas burning is the way to go, as long as you don't burn the house down

6:33 am

we are only allowed to burn outside until May 1st, which is really unfortunate, because April is always a wet month around here, and they never give us extra days to make up for it. Makes me grumpy

6:33 am

167 left and I'm stuck, time to take a break I think

6:34 am

fresh eyes do wonders, sue....

6:34 am

You sound like a wonderful gardener, ruby. I bow....

6:35 am

Trif, I was booted out when I started to congratulate Primo on his accomplishments. Wonderful. I am happy for the both of you.

6:35 am

no no, I just plan and point! Too lazy and fragile to do the actual work.

6:35 am

thank you annie.

6:35 am

I have a handyman/shlepper who does what I tell him. Husband just does the lawn which he usually kills by June!

6:36 am

I think you are probably very wonderful at laying out gardens, decided what goes where.

6:36 am

I planned this one for years before we moved here but it's my first garden and I made many mistakes

6:36 am

planning and design are major parts! putting the right plant in the right spot is crucial, so give your self more credit, dear one!

6:37 am

it is an English garden via Martha Stewart. French gardens are too busy -- a little of this, a little of that

6:37 am

you are very sweet trif, but if you could see my mistakes......

6:37 am

I have a perennial garden that seems to be full of thugs. I spend an enormous amount of time hacking things back

6:37 am

{{yawwwwn}} morning!

6:38 am

Car my dearest love! I was hoping you would be toddling in....

6:38 am

the trick was limiting the colors: all shades of pink, rose, salmon, blue, violet, red and a little white with everygreens for winter interest

6:38 am

that sounds LOVELY. good on you for getting true blues in the garden! I am challenged with that here, as everything seems to go to the violet

6:38 am

the evergreens, which started as cute little balls of green have grown to monstrous sizes and I've had to have several cuts out

6:39 am

Morning! HOw are you this morning?

6:39 am

pouring coffee for car.

6:39 am

whereas my boxwoods are sometimes heard to scream as I pick them up in the nursery "OH NO! Not her! don't send us home with HER -- she's a MURDERESS!"

6:39 am

How am I? I AM ON VACATION!!!!!

6:40 am

Thank you Ruby! Have a fresh, hot cup right here!

6:40 am

thistles are a good start and they spread. A big surprise this year was the allium, big purple balls which went from one to about 12!

6:40 am

<----jealous

6:40 am

how were the boys' games yesterday?

6:40 am

husband set the hedge on fire last winter!

6:40 am

Too cute!

6:40 am

the birds love the holes, but it is pretty ugly

6:40 am

Camera died at Zack's game, so no pics : (

6:41 am

oxymoron: pretty ugly....

6:41 am

LOL Ruby!

6:41 am

LOL ruby....I have always enjoyed "now then"

6:42 am

if anybody wants to see garden photos, just send me an e-mail and I will regale [sp?] you

6:42 am

I would!

6:44 am

Just found a 60's Beat combo band in the grid

6:44 am

it's not a huge garden but has a complex layout, so I have a little"wedding bouquet" garden next to the steps from the street |(tulips, allyssum [sp?] and lavender; a "Japanese garden next to the driveway , 3 little Japanese maples, a tulip tree in the middle and azaleas, juniper and moss around it

6:44 am

hmmm. was it an ho7 by any chance, movieman?

6:45 am

who you calling a ho? hahah

6:46 am

in the back, I made a border garden with the evergreen, roses, peonies, tulips, phlox, spirea, aconitum, liatris,and tons of other stuff, but all in that limited color range

6:46 am

ruby, I am so impressed

6:46 am

well done ruby!!!!

6:46 am

Kids driving me nuts...off to put them on the bus.

6:47 am

someday I pray I can get myself that organized....

6:47 am

put them under it, car!

what is the plural of honey?

6:47 am

then, in the bottom garden is all the fruit: 2 plums, an apple, a cherry, a quince, my little potager and blackberries, raspberries, strawberries and red and black currents

6:47 am

how do you have the time. Do you have a gardener ruby?

6:47 am

carrants*

6:47 am

a handyman'shlepper

6:47 am

honies? honeys?

6:48 am

currants* duh

6:48 am

honeys, that's the ticket!

I want to see Ruby's gardenn!

6:48 am

ruby, please consider giving tours

6:48 am

all I do is laundry, meals and garden

6:49 am

it sounds much grander than it is, but it is very pretty

6:49 am

and babble! don't ever forget babble!

and Babble. Don't forget Babble.

6:49 am

Wow Ruby, your garden sounds enchanting.

6:49 am

babble and scrabble, The New Yorker and the Herald Tribune, take up the rest of the time

6:49 am

snap, you two!

yep.

6:50 am

I've been doing less and less gardening over the years. Since I retired, I don't have as much free cash

6:50 am

it is very nice if a little tattered around the edges.

6:50 am

Fortunately, we did all the major planting the first years, while the dollar was still valuable. None of this would be possible now

6:51 am

You know where your mind lives, when your first phantom is fornicate. : P

6:51 am

And we could never have afforded the house, even two years after we bought it!

6:51 am

I am hoping to do more with vegetables this year. partly out of green concerns, and partly due to being short on the other kind of green....

6:51 am

we can always count on molly!!!!

6:52 am

We have very poor soil, so I only grow tomatoes and fruit

6:52 am

What kind of vegetables Trif?

6:52 am

the one thing that is really inexpensive here is vegetables

6:52 am

gads, 17 i words! my worst letter....

6:53 am

but home-grown tomatoes are much better

6:53 am

I am trying to decide that now, molly. there seems little point in growing stuff no one like to consume, even if it grows well

6:53 am

that is always the problem, people grow these huge zucchinis that no one will eat!

6:54 am

and then there are the slugs who are always happy to share eeewww

6:54 am

always tomatoes, cucumbers, and some zucchini, though we ALWAYS end up with too much of it. Last year we grew watermelons for the first time, and that was fun. Corn takes up too much space for the payout, I feel. LOTS of green beans, peas, etc. Most we eat right up, and there is always extra for freezing

6:54 am

...and then there was quiet....

6:54 am

Just imagine how many words today's grid would have IF that far column s was a G.......

6:54 am

we are not too sluggy around here, thank goodness

6:54 am

boys are gone, car?

6:54 am

In our old house, we had a huge veggie garden. We had every kind of pest imaginable, including mammalian

6:55 am

Oh, that I had the room to grow corn. I do tomatoes, green peppers and beans.

6:55 am

Yes, yes they are Ruby. I love them, but sometimes they are just too dang loud.

6:55 am

I used to grow peas but developed an allergy to the plants and raw ones

6:55 am

Morning Molly!

6:55 am

Morning Bichon!

6:55 am

Morning MM!

6:55 am

morning car

6:55 am

Morning Car.

6:55 am

Hi car

6:55 am

I tried to grow corn because it's terrible in the stores, but had no success, wrong climate, I guess

6:56 am

I tried green peppers last year, and nothing much came of them. And I canNOT grow lettuce or broccoli at all.

6:56 am

hello mm

6:56 am

phantom: toilet

6:56 am

I am sorry now that I didn't put in asparagus and artichokes the first year, but not I'm too old

6:56 am

i've found three equine words so far

6:56 am

We used to do potatoes, but really, at the end of the day they probably cost $40 per pound, so I gave that up

6:56 am

now*

6:57 am

from what I hear, home-grown potatoes are much better! but you are right about the cost - and the labor!

6:58 am

my cousin has a pretty amazing system wherein she grows the potatoes in big sacks, and then at the end of the season you just slit the sacks open, and there you go! wash and serve

6:58 am

last year I had one cherry tomato plant that must have had 500 sweet delicious tomatoes! The other tomato plants were nothing special.

6:58 am

I had an asparagus patch and asparagus beetles

6:58 am

and tomatoes are a lot of work because you have to keep tying them up and pruning

6:59 am

were the beetles pretty?

6:59 am

I tried the potato barrel thing for two years. Nada.

7:00 am

yes, you are right ruby. I have one rose bush like that as well. every five years or so I cut it right to the ground, and it grows back so much healthier! Thinking it might be time to do that again

7:00 am

people grow them here, but it seems like too much trouble

7:00 am

wow, serioulsy molly? good to know....

7:01 am

the roses, though, are wonderful. And they require almost no care or feeding. They make my only big bouquets and in May I put them with peonies

7:01 am

and there goes primo, off to class (he got to sleep in today, as he had study first period....) the house is so quiet it's almost ringing

7:01 am

what a pleasure, trif!

7:02 am

I am giving myself total permission to WALLOW today -- naps, reading, sloth. I have a to do list that would require 20,000 Hebrew slaves to pull off for the rest of my time off, so I figure I have earned today

7:03 am

You go Trif!

7:03 am

can we help, trif? I feach of us does a little, would that be useful? I certainly have time....

7:03 am

and good reference books

7:04 am

{{gasses up Babble jet to go fetch Ruby....}}

7:04 am

thanks car. Of course my hopes for this vacation are completely pie in the sky - not only will I get the house in order from top to bottom, but I will also go bouncing back to work in the full flush of enthusiasm for all tasks on hand

7:04 am

I get Japanese beetles on my roses. Have to hand pick them off

7:04 am

the world is just an e-mail away hahah

7:04 am

gads, remember that when we were kids, car? tin cans full of gas, knocking those damn beetles into them on a hot summer's day....

7:05 am

If you get 10 things done, you should be proud! That is why it is called a vacation....

7:05 am

my neighbor has calla lilies and inside each flower lives a lovely scarab beetle

7:05 am

morning, all! Big grid!

7:06 am

I bought lily bulbs one year but forgot about them and by the time I remembered, they had liquified.....

7:06 am

Morning uusue!

7:06 am

hello sue!

7:06 am

phantom:stilletto

7:06 am

I am going more the other way car -- this is my vacation, and I have a fixed time to get stuff done, so rush rush rush\

7:06 am

lol, ruby, sounds like my gardening style!

7:07 am

time for the Herald Tribune. If there is anything I can add to your list, trif, I would be more than willing

7:07 am

I don't bother with bulbs that have to be dug up every winter, I would never remember, so I just have spring-flowering bulbs

7:07 am

any clues for the 10s out there?

7:07 am

No rushing. Just doing what comes and resting when you need to.

7:07 am

it only took me 12 years to learn that if you save your dug-up geraniums in the garage and don't forget to water them occasionally, you can put them in the borders in the spring and they'll flower all summer

7:08 am

speaking of resting....I am almost to halfway!

7:08 am

oooh! Got a 9!

7:08 am

Sweet!

7:08 am

the locals say to dig up the tulips, not way for lazy me. The ones that survive, survie

7:09 am

my tulips do just fine, I never dig them up.

7:09 am

siesta/reading time in Dixie. {{everyone}}

7:09 am

Oooh.....I found both 10s......

7:09 am

it is much too much trouble to do that

7:09 am

Bye Ruby!

7:09 am

I may be crazy, but not that crazy!

7:09 am

Well done MM!

7:10 am

Oh, I know- Ideas or tenets or beliefs- usually a suffix

I hate it when I look for words I already have. Such a waste of my precious youth.

7:54 am

someone said something in the middle of the night after flip about how the x in this grid is used, but I didn't uite catch it because I was drinking wine.

7:58 am

'morning, folks

7:59 am

good morning Welki

8:00 am

we have a golden retriever, too, Mom :)

8:01 am

They are precious dogs. Annie doesn't belong to us though but to our son and his fiancee

8:02 am

they're all precious, such good companions

8:03 am

and so smart

8:04 am

hehe .. i think all companion animals are smart. we feed them, love them, pick up their waste, take them to the doctor, to parks, on holidays, buy them toys, give them treats ...

8:05 am

just like children :-)

8:07 am

except that pets never ask for anything, require very little training relative to what you'd like them to do and rarely embarrass you in public :)

8:12 am

lol, so true

8:13 am

I guess I had better get off here and start my day. Be back at lunch time. ((Hugs)) to all of you

8:13 am

bye, mom

8:19 am

and ty for the st10

8:20 am

yikes welki....hope we dont get anymore snow....having snow tires taken off today

8:20 am

i am watching people sliding over the roads this morning who jumped the gun and took off the snow tyres a tad too soon:/

8:20 am

same here .. but then again, it sometimes snows here in july *lol*

8:21 am

I have brand new all weather tires going on the car with AWD - I'll be fine anyway

8:21 am

lol,you westerners have all that oil out there to keep you warm when it snows in july lol

8:22 am

three are 2 ca9 and I don;'t see either of them:( think one has to do with the ca5/12 (sociology, place insociety)

8:22 am

hey crossy ... started the cpap. had some problems with first course of therapy. ended up having to demand that they change from cpap to apap (because of high pressure i need .. felt like i was hanging my head out of a moving train) .. switched around some masks .. seems like things are settling down

8:22 am

i have vowed today not to go any further till i get every single s word;)

8:23 am

apap?

8:23 am

Um...Gremlinn got fireworks at 12:33. 405 words in 33 minutes? WOW

8:23 am

C = continuous one pressure all the time ... A = automatic algorithmic adjustments

8:23 am

and yest it is a steep learning curve with the machines,i have had mine almost a year and have just made peace with it

8:24 am

i have a button on mine that starts it at 25% of normal setting and slowly ramps it up over 2 hours

8:25 am

and i use a full mask not the nasal inset

8:25 am

insert

8:25 am

i have the ramp up setting, too .. mine is for 45 min, it's adjustable.

8:25 am

without the ramp up button it would be very hard for me also

8:26 am

i tried two full masks, but the pressure (19) literally blew them off my face

8:26 am

you will sleep much better once you get used to it

8:26 am

19??!

8:26 am

omg

8:26 am

is not 19 a bit much?

8:27 am

i would get that setting re-evaluated

8:27 am

the polysomnogram indicated i do best at 20. the doc prescribed 19 .. i insisted he re-prescribe automatic, between 12-19

8:27 am

morning, all!

8:27 am

just popping in while I have my tea...

8:27 am

i was stopping breathing 45 times a night for as much as 90 seconds at a time and my setting is a 8

8:27 am

i switched docs, too .. because i feel the first one set me up to fail

8:28 am

howdy sue

8:28 am

54 times per min for me, just over a minute sometimes

8:28 am

not per minute, per hour (oops)

8:28 am

well,it is good you caught it

8:28 am

busy day again as usual, headaches not letting up. MRI was fine, though, so that was good, I guess

8:29 am

hi sue!

8:29 am

my chance of heart attack and or stroke was 50% higher if the apnea was left untreated

8:29 am

good stuff sue

8:29 am

welki, I'm glad you corrected that although even 54 times per hour seems like an awful lot!!!

8:29 am

and i thought i was high at 45...omg

8:30 am

it is a lot, sue. the doctor was surprised. he expected mild to moderate, nothing this severe. on the other hand, my resp. therapist has a client who, at one point, had over 100 per hour

8:30 am

and here i thought i was just a tired and cranky old broad ... now i have an excuse! LOL

8:31 am

i do not know what you had to pay for your machine but this evil device was 1400 dollars+ tax(1000 out of pocket) :(((

8:32 am

just the mask was 300:((

8:32 am

in alberta, testing is not covered (even by my extended insurance), but the machine is. 2400.

8:32 am

covered by my extended insurance, not ab health

8:32 am

my testing was covered at least

8:32 am

oh, it's 2400, all in. mask, hose, machine

8:32 am

but damn! 19 seem high!!

8:33 am

LOLOL .. the first night with the masks! kept my husband awake LAUGHING ... from the fart, honk, whistle noise coming out of the leaky mask

8:33 am

you must wake up with you mouth,nose and throat dryer than a popcorn fart lol

8:33 am

it is high. it takes a lot of pressure to open my stubborn airway

8:34 am

i use 1 pint of distilled water in its humidifier every night even at an 8 setting

8:34 am

training myself not to mouth breathe is one of the hardest parts of adjusting to this

8:34 am

1/2 pint*

8:34 am

my humidifier is set to 3.

8:34 am

thats why i have full mask,i mouth breathe too much

8:34 am

same here a 3

8:35 am

getting the straps set just right is a fine art in of itself lol

8:36 am

i'm a little claustophobic .. ha. i'm claustrophobic. i am determined not to have to wear a full face mask. i have one as a back-up, the swift fx, but will perservere with the nasal pillows

8:37 am

and you get a new and never thought of treat in life cause on the days when you have the day off and the house to yourself,there is nothing finer than laying on the couch and leaving the machine in the bedroom and having a glorious 1 hour power nap whilst snoring the paint right off the walls1 lol

8:38 am

first night, husband looked at me in full mask and said, Luke, I am your father. Now, the nasal mask makes me look like the Snuffleupagus (connection made by another babbler)

8:39 am

you have one pressure all night long (other than the ramp up hours)?

8:39 am

yes,one setting all night after ramp up

I have been having success with a little device called tongue retainer. A little bit obnoxious, but nothing like a mask, and way cheaper. Keeps the tongu from falling back into the throat.

8:39 am

my ramp up starts at 8, goes to 12 and adjusts between 12 and 19 through the night. when it goes high, it wakes me up, but i;ll get used to it

8:39 am

i have heard of those rast

8:40 am

i tried a mouth device, rasta ... didn't work for me

8:40 am

but that is for mild wannabe cases lol

8:40 am

in fact, it was my dentist who referred me to the sleep clinic

I tried the thing that pulls your jaw forward, and got massive muscle spasms in my face, scary. This is different

8:40 am

ok, gotta run, bbl

8:41 am

tc sue

8:41 am

Morning folks

8:41 am

Morning folks

8:41 am

8:41 am

bye, sue

8:41 am

and hi bob :)

8:42 am

help with wh9 pls

8:43 am

don't have it, peri ..but i do have an 8 .. beliefs in the entire shebang

8:43 am

mm interesting welki,but i have enough dental issues and do not need my teeth shifting on top of the apnea,think i will stick with the machine

8:44 am

ty welki, I have that one too

This isn't a jaw device that I have. It's just a tongue thing

8:44 am

anyone have the ho9?

8:44 am

me too .. but there are choices, and that's a good thing :)

8:44 am

indeed

8:44 am

or either ca9 pls

8:45 am

o get some of the big ones out of the way before I do errands and laundry

8:45 am

rasta .. like a mouthguard, right? hehehe .. like i said, i had one, but i left it on a nightstand and (ugh) the dog chewed it up

8:45 am

ca9 - one is a superlative for ca6 - immature, inexperienced

8:45 am

you think thre are enough S words n the grid today?

8:45 am

ca9 - most immature

8:46 am

ho 8/9 - ho4/5 + ta 4/4 then pl

8:46 am

ho9 is a plural for ho8 - combine what a rhino sports with what a dog wags.

8:47 am

hi haz, teach

8:47 am

ty wv and Haz

8:47 am

not getting the ca9 clue

8:48 am

ca + to give permission

8:48 am

and I must be spelling the wh9 wrong

8:48 am

ca6/33 - to rhyme with the opposite of the deep end of a swimming pool.

8:49 am

ty for ca6

8:49 am

and for a ca9 too

welki, this doesn't fit over the teeth. It goes on the tongue. Not finding a picture online

8:49 am

wh 9 - wh 5/20 + sa 4/4

8:50 am

ohhh, something different altogether. would be interested in seeing it or getting a brand name so i could google it

8:50 am

i would like to see a new item also ,never heard of just a tongue deive

8:50 am

device

8:51 am

<-- hates trying to yawn while all connected

8:51 am

got a brand and product name?

ok found it fianlly. this is what I've got. Over the counter in Canada, need a prescription in us. http://www.aveosleep.ca/aveotsdhowitwo rks.html

8:54 am

gotta tell you that, even before reading the site, the pics have me laughing ... looks like you could purchase it in an adult type store *LMAO*

8:55 am

seriously going to look now :)

I know it looks like a pacifier my dh teases me. But it works

8:55 am

hi Babblers.. crossy, is there any freeware that will reduce jpg size? Was trying to post something on Craig's list, but my pics are too large to download..

8:55 am

yes one sec...

8:56 am

ty so much for the wh9, I should have found that one myself

8:56 am

(watching video)

8:56 am

there is a free program called "gimp" that is easy to use and may help

8:56 am

hel with the other ca9 pls

8:57 am

help even

8:57 am

http://www.gimp.org/

8:57 am

tyvm, wrote that down.. want to change my icon using a pic but have the same problem

8:57 am

it is an image manipi;ation program

8:57 am

manipulation

8:58 am

np:))

8:59 am

look forward to trying it! hope it works!

8:59 am

well hot dog, rasta ... looks like a winner!

8:59 am

it is very user friendly

8:59 am

The other ca9 is a plural for ca8 - think of an Indian system that categorises people in a certain way, then attach the 'distinctive doctrine ending.

8:59 am

$150?

8:59 am

the other ca9 pls, anyone?

8:59 am

very interesting rasta..i bookmarked it for future study

8:59 am

Look below,peri.

9:00 am

might be an option for camping

9:00 am

thats exactly what i was thinking or travelling in plane

9:00 am

ty ever so much Haz, now I can go to some errands, bbs

9:00 am

Bye, peri.

9:01 am

printing off the fact sheet for the dr now...

9:04 am

there we go.god i love technology sometimes:)

9:04 am

Aloy, irfanview is a free photo cropping, resizing, etc. site as well.

9:05 am

why can these monster grids surface on a day off?:(

9:05 am

never*

It's worked well for me, anyway. Dh is amazed. Tonge feels a little odd in the morning but it goes away quickly. Slight issue with drooling but worth it for the snoring. Hope it works for you guys too :)

9:06 am

read through the site ... disclaimer is that the device is only recommended for snoring, not as treatment for apnea. sure, they go hand in hand, but be careful, crossy

9:07 am

i will be welki,ty i just quick scanned it

9:07 am

i should buy one for the other half .. he won't go for a sleep study, so maybe this would help, if only a little

I'd imagine that's just CYA. If the apnea is from the tongue obstruction, this solve it

9:08 am

have you told your other half about the 50% increace in chance of heart attack or stroke?

9:08 am

wish i could find a local retailer, instead of ordering off the net

chit chat with a dentist - maybe they have one

9:09 am

ahh they are in BC,interesting

9:10 am

there's quite the debate about the device on one of the apnea support forums, and interesting that it occurred in 2006! so the product's been around for a while :)

9:12 am

i am kind of thinking that if my case was mild enough at the time,they would of reccomended a fast fix like that to me and not a full cpap machine:(

9:12 am

crossy .. $$$$$$$$ .. modus operandi

9:12 am

lol,but even so for camping ot travelling it may be just the thing

9:13 am

and any apnea count over 30/hour is not mild .. it's considered serious

9:13 am

severe (not serious)

My experience is that no one is aware of these things

and the $$$$ as welki says

9:14 am

a camel would be hard to light

Do you POP out at parties? Are you unpoopular?

Hard to fit on the grill.

2:43 pm

yeah, cause when we have steak we put the whole cow on the grill...

2:43 pm

smoked camel is supposed to be quite delicious. but don't feed it to dogs, please. one of the amino acids is at such a high level it can be toxic.

We are running about three simultaneous chog riffs now.

I know Hursh is in it, and probably everyone else.

3:13 pm

And this is written where?;)

Oh, the Constitution of Babble.

3:14 pm

ACK! Why did I wait until now to check the gird!?!?

Word, clue and list don't count?

it is a policy i consistently push for.

The gird may be a mess but the grid is OK.

3:14 pm

good policy hursh

Who is the Board of Directors?

3:15 pm

since it is an unwritten constitution like they have in GB we can just find it there

3:15 pm

if a conversation happens to get going and lots of people who happen to be there get on board and those people happen to spread the policy around, then we get a policy.

Ah- a people's government.

4:18 pm

I think she means al + *** Harvey Oswald.

I was told that li4 was an exempt word, and that there was consensus about it. I didn't argue. They said clue and word are also exempt.

4:19 pm

thank Molly and cos

I don't THINK so!

4:19 pm

hursh says it is an exempt word

4:19 pm

lol, love these "rules" !

Yeah, hursh said it. That's the liberal view.

4:20 pm

i think grid should be exempt too

4:20 pm

i tihnk u can say li4, and peri in chat even if its int he grid.... and one other word if orget

4:20 pm

ah yes grid. thats it

Who's a Babble conservative?

4:20 pm

i bet jackula will fight it tooth and nail! lol

4:20 pm

and babbler's names like peri ?

4:20 pm

Those "rules" are probably made by all the people who say "flip" at 12:00AM when flip is in the grid.

4:20 pm

i think it is fun to say pe**

4:21 pm

lol Molly!

4:21 pm

hey! i m one of these people molly :P

a word is a word a

4:21 pm

naugh many of them don't chat

4:21 pm

I would say Jillibus is a total Babble conservative.

4:21 pm

Cos, you have special dispensation.

4:21 pm

jacula is one too

4:22 pm

fwiw ive never heard of the rules from them. . just fromt he afternoon babblers :P

*pours a jack for snuffy*

4:23 pm

they send each other to the pb too

4:23 pm

hi shoo

4:23 pm

they dont like you to clue at the flip

4:23 pm

no, cluing is very different at the flip

4:23 pm

i usually wait til the high and toity ones leave...a hour after flip.. then the ones who stay will clue

4:23 pm

*Pours Aloy a glass of wine*

4:24 pm

:-P my jack wasn't good enough?

4:24 pm

LMAO at "high and toity ones"!!!!

4:24 pm

they will take pity on dummies like me

4:24 pm

Jack is fine. I had Aloy pinned as a wine drinker though.

4:24 pm

as long as i don't ask for too many

4:25 pm

some of them even have their own script to list.. then complains that it isnt as fast as lickety's ... lol...

4:25 pm

*Begins writing "Babble For Dummies"*

4:25 pm

snuffy which would you prefer?

4:25 pm

lol that is dfm the math whiz!

4:25 pm

what is the flip?

4:26 pm

oh molly can i have a copy??

4:26 pm

that is at 1 am eastern time when the new grid comes on line and the old one disappears

4:26 pm

back with a b & g

4:26 pm

ok thanks jm. so u have to have the old one done, and the new one auto. comes on

4:27 pm

but gremlinn is the fastest

A Babble fascist would be someone who PB's you for saying "that" or "then."

4:27 pm

next big decision.. what to fix for supper?

4:27 pm

ce

4:27 pm

i thikn josh is fastest... he apparently gets nbt 1 minute after flip

Ah- what is the flip, she asks.

4:28 pm

Argh. Wrong again. Aloy is a bourbon drinker.

For me it's that exciting moment, always when I have insomnia-

dfm makes my brain shrink when he enters the chog!

4:28 pm

oh oh lol

4:28 pm

Oh that is bullshit. No one gets nbt that fast.

4:28 pm

something different Molly.. like a variety (-:

4:28 pm

are they that good, or am i that bad lol

when I come downstairs to dose myself with morphine and nembutal washed down with a shot of whiskey,

4:28 pm

whether you are done or not the new one comes on and then all the really good babblers shout out the stats for the longer words

4:28 pm

thats what i think too but hes always like "hi nbt"

4:29 pm

oh.. glad im not up at that time then

and play babble at the exact moment the new grid comes up. That's why

they call it flip

where is the babble honor code?

4:29 pm

it is not 1 minute on big grids but on small ones

4:29 pm

clue for the last te7?

4:29 pm

If someone is that brilliant, they should be curing cancer at midnight, not playing Babble.

4:30 pm

i think mostly people say what is really true

4:30 pm

lol@ molly, so true

4:30 pm

having a skill is not necessarily brilliance

4:30 pm

etagere is the only 7 letter et I can think of.. Morewords, here I come

4:30 pm

and even people who are should have a chance to play

listen to us- sour grapes or what?

te 7/28 TV's

4:31 pm

never mind found it.. ah thanks luv

4:31 pm

thank you, morewords

4:31 pm

not me i love being on at the flip even though i try my hardest and never am first at nbt

4:31 pm

Sorry to be such a cynic. I've listened to a lot of chat room BS over the years. I'm jaded.

4:31 pm

babble honor code.. i shall live up to the standard of the chat and not make others feel stupid when they dont know a word by clues given

Molly taught me not to clue when someone only asks for stats- but people do that to me all the time.

You really think people fake their NBT's?

4:31 pm

most people will try to do that kap

Why would they do that?

4:32 pm

i know a couple of times i called nbt only to find i missed a ti**! lol

4:32 pm

6,7,8,9,10 words done!

Babble rule #1 should be- chill.

there are probably some fish stories but i'd like to think most are on the up and up

4:32 pm

i meant most people will try to honor a request for stats rather than clue

4:32 pm

clue for the al5.10 pls?

4:32 pm

wtg cosd

I try to get over it.

4:33 pm

and the second rule is to be encouraging to new and old babblers!

I've dealt with a lot of "fakers" on message boards JMC. I guess I'm hyper-sensitive to it. Some of them have proven to be...um...troubled.

4:36 pm

:-) so it is kap

4:36 pm

.. and then there is inge who has a unique chat entry

4:36 pm

np lbd

4:36 pm

wahoo, way to go cosdem!!!!

4:36 pm

Yay Cos!!!!

y do fools fall in love?

Do you know the way to San Jose?

4:37 pm

whoo hooo cosd

4:37 pm

pretty fun grid with a list.

4:37 pm

No i don't kap

did cos get fireworks?

4:37 pm

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

4:37 pm

yes he did, kap.

Who knows where the time goes?

Cool Cos.

4:38 pm

i think the sustained chat makes it hard to fake a personality

4:38 pm

yes, tg Lickety's is working today.. I would be so cross-eyed by now!

4:38 pm

There is no Carmen in my part of San Diego right now

4:38 pm

it goes to babble!

4:38 pm

hi DR

4:38 pm

Why do birds, suddenly appear, every time, you are near?

4:38 pm

Hi JMc

4:38 pm

just like me they want to be close to youoooooo

Why don't you write?

4:39 pm

why does the sun go on shining?

why was I born? Why am I living?

What do I get? What am I giving?

4:40 pm

<---- stepped into Babble Idol?

4:40 pm

Actually, sustained chat makes it easy to spot a poser. They claim _____ (fill in the blank) but never chat properly to make people believe that.

4:40 pm

all the answers can be found in Babble chat..

I am a poser.

4:41 pm

I am actually Aurora, goddess of the dawn, but ..

4:41 pm

Posers also say things in chat, like they are the ones saying it, when really it's something someone else said.

I am posing in my underwear.

4:41 pm

I bet Kaplan

I mean really, what do you think-

that I'm some 55 year old woman with insomnia and arthritis?

4:42 pm

Kap, we already know that you are the incarnation of Veronica Lake. Ease up.

I am cool, hip and mysterious.

4:42 pm

u knw there is a grand reason to be a lurker...it's because you all keep us soooo entertained none of us want to break it up!!!!

4:42 pm

damn priest next door *sulk*

4:43 pm

I am tired and grumpy

Priest next door? What the---

4:43 pm

you could join in and keep it going rapart!

4:43 pm

I am the walrus.

Goo goo ga joob.

4:43 pm

i'm not as glib as u guys!

I agree repart!!!

4:43 pm

(i bet kap is a 55 year old woman with arthritus)

Glib? Me? It's Tourettes!

4:44 pm

some times glib sometimes just a fast googler!

4:44 pm

would be so fun if everyone came out of the woodwork to say hi tho

4:44 pm

HA!

4:44 pm

yeah the french catholic priest lives next door and always assume that any problem he has in my fault

Are there a lot of lurkers out there?

hi :)

Speak now, or ...

4:44 pm

I tend to lurk

4:45 pm

check who's on line and divide it by 2

4:45 pm

hi chrissie

4:45 pm

Many times I do, but depending on time of day, some do not answer. Like its their time period.

4:45 pm

Lurker No 1 reporting for duty! Sir!

Oh, does that sound like a lead-in for a joke, but I don't know it

4:45 pm

i tend to gab waaaaaay to much

4:45 pm

i even lurk sometimes

just lurking for a quick babble before bedtime - too tired to join in the chat

4:46 pm

i lurk sometimes, but only becuz im concentrating

4:46 pm

hi to chrissie and repar and Lady Blotch !

4:46 pm

especially if there is a serious chat going on

4:46 pm

agreed JMC

4:46 pm

*gets chrissie her slippers*

4:46 pm

Hi All!

4:46 pm

hi lady blotch

4:46 pm

At ease Private Soodle. Attend to your wine glass.

4:46 pm

Ahem. Hello Aloy!

thanks jmc

4:46 pm

ooh, hi to Soodle too !

4:47 pm

*wonders if DR was agreeing i gab too much--hurt feelings at the ready*

4:47 pm

Whew, thaks Moll. My arm was getting sore.

4:47 pm

This morning there was a discussion on sleep apnea apparatus ( es?) and it was interesting but I had nothing to add so I didn t chat

4:47 pm

hello, babblers

4:47 pm

If there is a half hour chat going on that is strictly between to posters, I turn chat off. It seems non-inclusive.

4:47 pm

NO JMC! Was not agreeing with that

I have been a lurker. I have lurked in my heart.

4:47 pm

hmm i wonder if I can have a quick jack before starting the dinner for guests

4:47 pm

sometimes i dont join in chat bcuz i have no idea what people are talking about . way over my head

4:47 pm

hey welki

4:47 pm

Two posters

Yeah Molly- you mean like the two of us singing?

4:47 pm

lol Whew!

4:48 pm

Yes Kap, but we know when to quit.

4:48 pm

Bless me Babblers, for I have lurked....

Usually I don't know what I am talking about either.

4:48 pm

you can st*** repent kap

say the alphabet backwards 3 times kap and you will be forgiven

4:48 pm

that being true, if there is no seriousness, people are just greeting each other, why do they not answer a good wish?

4:48 pm

Evening all - amd please never make that remark to a brit jmc - 'a quick jack' is slang for soemthing lese entirely

4:48 pm

i never know what i am talking about

4:48 pm

and forgive me babblers, for i was one of those two people talking about apnea. lord knows i monopolize the chat all the time.

4:48 pm

*Gears up red velvet confessional stocked with Irish whiskey* Say ten Hail Marys and sin no more my child.

4:49 pm

hi glann

4:49 pm

Good- I can say the alphabet backwards...

4:49 pm

Hi JMC :-)

I find I can't answer everything, and feel awkward when I come in being all stupid and someone has just talked about a tragedy...

4:49 pm

did you get snubbed repartee? I am sorry!

4:49 pm

lol.. true confessions .. let it all hang out

4:50 pm

Welki- it was not monopolizing the chat- you were sharing info with friends

4:50 pm

It did not bother me I just had nothing to add

4:50 pm

i hope it wasn't by-- it would have been unintentional

Hi everyone....TGIF!!!

4:50 pm

no not by any of you guys.. I am just saying that if one says good day others should answer unless i am being too formal.

4:50 pm

now we can all go to bed with clear consciences, having been absolved

4:50 pm

ezactly kap

but that is the nature of chog, and I don't suggest taking any of it personally unless someone attackes you, and I don't think we have any attackers here.

4:50 pm

not me; i aint catholic

4:51 pm

aaaaatttttackkkkkkk

4:51 pm

me either JMC

I haven't always said hello to everyone.

4:51 pm

ur right, but after a while one stops trying.

4:51 pm

no.. if you are actually working on the grid, it is easy to miss chat so I don't feel snubbed when people don't respond

4:51 pm

It is a interfaith absolution JMC. Go forth and be happy.

4:51 pm

grid? what grid?

4:51 pm

i take nothing personally in the chog except to occassionaly worry i have hurt someone el**

4:51 pm

amen!

Yeah, there are some people who actually work the grid.

4:52 pm

really ?

4:52 pm

grid? really?

4:52 pm

Rep, I get ignored here all the time. Sometimes people are so wrapped up in what they are chatting about that they just miss a "Hi" or a greeting. I don't think it's intentional.

4:52 pm

think it is that square yellow thing with black letters

4:52 pm

I come here for the chocolates

yeah they have this ritual called fireworks.

4:52 pm

thanks snuffy!

4:53 pm

*Throws chocolates at DR*

4:53 pm

at certain parts of the day i do. not this part however.

4:53 pm

thank you Molly!

4:53 pm

yw, finally figured it out jmc

4:53 pm

ok over donewith--gone!

4:53 pm

okay i must go clean up my living room and start cooking for guests with 256 left listless

4:53 pm

wow, good for you, repart.. congrats!

4:54 pm

bye repartee!

4:54 pm

bye, jmc.. cya next time

4:54 pm

ty-bye

I have to figure out what my daughter wants for dinner-

4:54 pm

bye all! i left a big bottle of jack in the pb

which since she is being pissy today she probably won't answer

4:54 pm

bye JMC-

which is OK cause we have no food in the house.

bbl.

4:55 pm

need to take a break too as it is my turn to cook.. bbl.. go out to eat, Kap!

4:55 pm

Well, jmc, you are one of the nicest Babblers. I can honestly say that because I have been chastised for asking (begging, I believe was the word used) for a clue....Hel_ , I wasn't even looking at the chog. Just broke right into their conversation. Oh, it didn't bother me....I just considered the source.

4:55 pm

bye everyone

agreed. later all.

4:55 pm

Fights off all other babblers to get into the pb to get to the bottle of Jack....

4:55 pm

sh

4:55 pm

sh

4:56 pm

Are you telling us to be quiet, shoosh?

does that mean we have to whisper?

4:57 pm

shoo has a ghost in her computer, it does only partial words! lol

4:57 pm

HEY, THERE SOODLE!!!!!

4:58 pm

Hi Dawger

4:58 pm

Gapeach!!!! (((((_))))) How absolutely lovely to see you :-)))

4:59 pm

You too, 'm dear.

4:59 pm

hi DR!

4:59 pm

You start my days with a smile with your emails. Thank you so much. :-)

5:00 pm

You are so very welcome.

5:01 pm

I was thinking of you while i was watching the golf last weekend. What a beautiful part of the world you live in!

5:01 pm

You've sent some that almost made me wet my undies...oh, so funny!

5:02 pm

Hmmm. Mostly rude, I'm afraid!

ok my son just took the car alone for the first time and it is raining. lord help me.

5:02 pm

jmc left a bottle of jack in the pb, good .. now might be the time to take a nip or two

5:02 pm

Yes, the City gets all excited about a month before the event.....they force azeleas to bloom on that particular week.

5:03 pm

Good Enough. Deep breaths. He will be fine. Try not to worry.

5:04 pm

Gapeach... whatever they did, it was worth it. The place looked spectacular. (Its just such a pity the young Irish guy didn't win!!)

5:05 pm

done! anyone need a clue or two?

5:05 pm

LOL

5:05 pm

Woo-hoo Welki. Well done.

5:08 pm

Yeah, I agree, Soodle. My home is very close, about a quarter mile, from the course. Traffic is unbelieveable. But it does bring MUCH money into the city.

5:08 pm

6 18 second from bottom plz

5:09 pm

first two letters, ivesy?

5:09 pm

oh ta lol

5:10 pm

ta 6/18 that is

5:10 pm

*Says OH LOOK SOODLE! THERE IS GILES MARINI!! Then grabs the bottle of Jack*

5:10 pm

oh .. how ta4 ** the Empire State Building?

5:10 pm

Snap, Gapeach. I live about 4 miles from where the Ryder Cup was played in 2006. Fantastic boon to the local economy, but murder for the day to day lives of the locals.

5:11 pm

We have a line of bad weather coming, already passed Atlanta, thunderstorms and tornado warnings...I must get to a fast food place for dinner.

5:11 pm

ty welkie!

5:11 pm

be careful, peach

5:11 pm

Alas, the weather Peach is getting is headed my way for tomorrow. Take care Peach.

5:11 pm

Tsk tsk. I have no idea what Molly is on about. (Saintly, non JD-drinking facade on..._

hey who drank all the jack?!

5:12 pm

Molly did.

5:12 pm

*Unlocks secret PB stash of Irish whiskey. Shares with GE*

5:13 pm

Bah. Foiled again!

hey

5:13 pm

*Pours Soodle a girlie glass of wine* : P

5:14 pm

Rats. I better develop a taste for whiskey so I can keep up with the Babble Drinking Brigade!

thanks molly. you're the best!

5:15 pm

Pshww.

5:16 pm

Hmm. This from the woman who drowned so many shamrocks on St. Pat's that she wasn't right for three days.

5:17 pm

Oh my.

5:18 pm

Just teasing Soodle.

5:19 pm

What a long memory you have. (note to self... be careful what you reveal in Babble Chog... it could come back to be used in evidence against you)

5:20 pm

LMAO Moll..

5:21 pm

I'm a writer by hobby. Observation and memory are tools of my trade. And if I had $100 dollars for every time someone said "I can't believe you remember that" I would have bought Necker Island from Richard Branson a long time ago.

5:23 pm

aye,soodle, you have to mind molly as she remembers i hate mushy peas and i can't remember i hate them half ythe time!! lol

5:24 pm

Now you are scaring me. I'm franticaly trying to remember what I ever said to you. (

5:24 pm

Now you are scaring me. I'm franticaly trying to remember what I ever said to you. (

5:24 pm

Now you are scaring me. I'm franticaly trying to remember what I ever said to you. (

6:54 pm

I waited 17 odd years to see Faith No More and this kid would have been about 18 was all What you all excited about'' I am all DUDE you were not even thought off

what do you think of this new stuff gobias?

6:56 pm

oh ok, thair music but i don't know names1nks gobias, i've heard of them and know some of the

6:56 pm

Pearl Jam lost me after Vitology... I haven't even listened to Eddies solo stuff... sometimes my sister brings me to the shows if she has no one to go with in my neck of the woods.

I want to go Gobias. Damn living in AUstralia

i really liked big hard sun and they have played breathe to death

6:56 pm

and just hearing ukelele kindof turns me off... LOL

Ukelele is sort of a sometimes kind of thing...like a cookie is a sometimes food you know.

6:57 pm

what has happened to my chat! i said, ok i've heard their music but don't know their names, but i do know some of their music

yes but i was surpsied, he plkays it like a git. actually there is a uke virtuoso coming here on tour

6:57 pm

I do listen to the Pearl Jam station on Sirius radio sometimes.

6:57 pm

.. hi all, back after supper; big grids are a challenge on busy days!

HI Aloy

6:57 pm

hi aloy

Jake Shimabukuro

TO Amanda Palmer plays her new Uke it is pretty

6:58 pm

hi herin and lilliann

6:58 pm

Work over. This grid is brutal. Maybe I'll attempt to finish when I get home.

great herin

6:59 pm

Night all.

6:59 pm

and back again. how ya'll?

night

6:59 pm

ok, kid says he's actually on his way now. Could have walked home in this amount of time except it is really cold and rainy.

6:59 pm

safe journey home gobias and hopefully you eill ! :)

grr dont' you hate when you have the first cour letters of a 7 and can't find it

6:59 pm

how did the op go jes?

7:00 pm

all the time TO!! lol

7:00 pm

as suspected, uterus was wonderfully distended with blood. now she has no uterus, so that problem ought to be done with.

TO one of the uke Makers actually gave her this really pretty electric Uke and she was so humbled by it. She is used to playing a crappy one

Dog or cat or human Jess?

*dves in * SPLASH!

7:01 pm

good for her, as in problem solved and bad luck to owner, who shouldn't have put her through anymore anymore anyway

7:03 pm

i hope she recovers quickly jess

7:03 pm

dog, lady

7:04 pm

yeah. she's already starting to sit up, so hopefully she'll be good to go. Lot of blood no longer inside the dog though, and that worries me.

O poor puppy

Because of my job I can't comment on a lot of dog rescue / puppy farm stuff on FB it sucks as I have to censor my self

7:05 pm

oh, that doesn't sound good, does that mean blood transfusion?

7:05 pm

but good sign that she is sitting up!

7:05 pm

no, i don't have the supplies for transfusions; closest place that does is about 50 miles away.

7:06 pm

ok, I am going to walk. I think it quit raining.

7:06 pm

have fun, uusue

7:06 pm

that's a long way, so waht happens if she does need blood?

7:07 pm

bye, uusue

7:07 pm

bye sue. tc

7:07 pm

*what

7:07 pm

either the owner transports her to the emergency clinic there, or they drive down to get the stuff and bring it back. doesn't happen very often.

7:08 pm

shouldn't need it for this one, now that i've got the blood loss stopped.

Do the owners care about this dog?

7:08 pm

s

7:09 pm

oh ok, i'm not having a go, i'm just interested, as i have had loads of rescue animals so like to know what goes on behind the scenes so to speak

7:09 pm

yeah, lady. this is a champion show dog from a breeding kennel.

7:09 pm

glad you've stopped it jes, sounds like she will do will well

7:11 pm

for what that's worth. i have some pretty serious issues with what people choose to make "champion" quality in judging... but at least the owner was willing to let me go back in when it became obvious there was a problem.

7:11 pm

so is this dog a rescue dog jes?

At least they care

When I was a kid we got an ex breeding Irish Setter she was a great pet. Daft as a post but lovely.

7:14 pm

owner's more okay with spaying now than she was this morning, because now she has a bitch-pup to continue the line. i just hope the pup doesn't have as many repro problems as mom :(

7:14 pm

just read back jes1 do you have or are a partner of a private vets and then do work for a rescues centre?

Sorry to sound mean but if the bitch is not a good breeding dog why not spay the pups

ca6/21 & 7/32 clue pls?

7:15 pm

i own a veterinary clinic, and run a non-profit rescue on the side. 2 separate businesses, though the non-profit does a lot of business at the veterinary clinic

7:16 pm

meow animal + charged particle, TO

7:17 pm

because she's a champion, lady. *shrug* i don't particularly care for re-breeding dogs with whelping issues, but at least she's breeding purebreds deemed to be quality, not a mongrel in the back yard to whatever comes down the street.

sorry, ist pair

7:18 pm

what breed is she, jes?

7:18 pm

i wasn't having a go at you but i understand why you had a go at me so i do apologise again whole heartedly and as a gemini you're very lucky to get it! but reading everything about you, i know you really care about the animals you look after and it's not just about the money

ahh I can not finish the grid. I am drawing a bath and then will have to give up. 162 left. not too bad as I started at about 7:00 pm..

7:18 pm

(hi all -- just here for a few minutes)

That is true Jess. I just remember from people I speak to that breed cats that more than one litter has an issue then the Queen is spayed and so are the offspring. But this same lady will not dump or give up ''rejects with issues'' to anyone

good night, red

7:19 pm

ok, ca** me on the phone and I will g** back to you asap

7:20 pm

night, red.. gj !

7:20 pm

hi jilli

This lady had a ragdoll called Clef(t) Richards. Clef was sold to a very special person after much searching

7:20 pm

but at the same time jes, you have a business and have to pay bills so i do understand

*hangs head in shame* er, the next set?

7:21 pm

Iasked about the breed of this bitch because some breeds have more birthing problems than others

7:21 pm

so what breed is she?

I went past the pet store yesterday and they were selling a Dalmatian cross. The door was mostly white with white ears and nose. Poor thing was basically dumped there as no self respecting breeder would off load a potential issue dog

7:23 pm

she took her brief**** **to the judge's chambers - she might need the documents

7:23 pm

sorry, phone call.

7:23 pm

she's a german shepherd

7:23 pm

jes -- what breed is this bitch?

7:24 pm

yeah; this won't be helping pay the bills, lilli. not charging for the second surgery, because it was as a result of complications with the first.

*looks up sheelpishly* ty aloy

el8/9 pls?

7:24 pm

Ok -- sorry to nag, lol! Shepherds shouldn't usually have problems like bulldogs and the like...

7:25 pm

lol, yvw, TO.. sooner or later..

7:25 pm

TO we're having an el8 in Canada soon

7:25 pm

(also hi all :o) )

7:25 pm

Gotta go! May be back later for my last 98, haha.

7:25 pm

ding dong it.. brb.. phone

7:26 pm

not as many repro problems usually, but they're basically bred for bad hips and back... eventually you've gotta reach a point where the extremely angled back starts affecting pelvic angle and whelping

*runs to get book on candian current events*

7:26 pm

I believe the next one in the st6 is next year?

7:27 pm

* the US

ty

My Friend had a German shep poor thing weighed something around the 25Kilo mark when she got him

7:29 pm

pretty small for a shepherd. this one's 40 kilo

7:31 pm

who the heck are "unknown caller"s and why don't they leave us alone?

7:32 pm

that's why you either ignore them or play mind tricks on them, aloy :oD

7:32 pm

never leave a message..

7:32 pm

ooh, tell me.. what do you do?

7:33 pm

Aloy, seriously, I never answer my phone. Thank God for answering machines. 4 times out of 5 it's some lame-o salesperson.

7:33 pm

if I'm at home and I'm bored I pick up and if it's a telemarketer I play with their minds :oD

7:33 pm

Hi again, Molly..

7:33 pm

otherwise my answering machine is more or less "leave a message and I'll ca4 back or possibly pick up right now".

7:33 pm

h'mm, do you snort , dfm?

Damn it I ahve not put one word in babble and I have lost all sense of time

7:34 pm

sorry had to go to loo, takes a while! but the complications aren't your fault jes, just something that happens, but as an owner i would say the same,but as i love my pets and want the best for them if a 2nd op was needed i would say we go halves!

Jess this dog had serious issues and didn't live past about 2 or 3. He was a really sweet dog

7:34 pm

and ALWAYS at supper time! ticks me off

7:34 pm

or doesn't the insurance pay for it, on both sides?

7:35 pm

I pretend not to understand English sometimes

7:35 pm

that's sad herin

7:35 pm

or ask for a bigger discount and then say no :oD

7:35 pm

no insurance. very few of my clients have insurance on their pets.

She rescues problem dogs. She has one that will only live half his life. Bad breeding. She has spent thousands on him. He is a rotty but is too big

7:36 pm

Aloy, that is when they figure most people will be home. I guess it hasn't occurred to the dimwits that people just don't pick up anymore.

7:37 pm

what insurance people do have is a reimbursement program; they owner pays me, then sends the receipts to the insurance co, and they send money to the owner.

7:37 pm

thank goodness for ****er ID.. has been a blessing

7:39 pm

alrighty. gonna go get supper and the come back to work to check on the dog. may pop in and out between.

bye jess

7:40 pm

bye, jes..

7:40 pm

Truly, I feel sorry for people trying to make a living as telemarketers. As annoying as those phone calls are, I realize that someone is doing that to try and make a living.

7:40 pm

you have a good heart, Molly

7:40 pm

when i first got ill, i didn't have pt insurance as i couldn't even affoed to buy food for me but i made sure my cats did, but if i had to take my cats to the vets i had to pay the full price!! i wasn't on the right benefit here to get free pet care!

7:41 pm

and that was rescue centres etc!!

7:42 pm

i hope the dog is ok jes

7:44 pm

ok, I am home, finally!

I try and be poliet to Telemarketers but when it is stupid questions it is like no busy

7:46 pm

yay.. hi uusue

7:46 pm

hi, aloy!

7:47 pm

wb sue

7:47 pm

hi, lilli!

Must put kettle on

7:47 pm

hows your dad sue?

7:48 pm

great, lilli! for some reason he mailed me copies of his tax returns, I'll have to call him (tomorrow) and find out what that's about :-)

mumbles about moving brb

7:49 pm

does he need tax retur4ns

7:49 pm

does he need tax retur4ns

7:49 pm

sorry, it went here!!

7:50 pm

yes, lilli, he's living off retirement and investments, so has to file quarterly estimated tax as well as annually

7:50 pm

oh ok, so he's not taxed 1st then before he gets his money?

7:51 pm

so it's opposite from here

7:51 pm

they probably withhold from his retirement, but not from the dividends and interest

7:52 pm

if you're still employed they generally withhold taxes from your paycheck and then you just have to make up the difference at the end of the year (which is what I do)

7:53 pm

here, they tax everything..pension, diveidends,etc , but when you are on your pension you don't need to worry about the tax as it is raken away again!! they take it away when you work and then again off your pension!!

7:54 pm

off to the PB for uusue, st4.4

7:54 pm

the feds tax pensions but my st*** doesn't

7:55 pm

oops, missed that, aloy! Anything good in there? I haven't had dinner yet!

7:55 pm

yes indeedy.. left some steamed asparagus and a salad and some Chinese beef stir fry

7:56 pm

here the pensions get taxed twice, which is wrong!!

7:56 pm

yum, aloy!

7:56 pm

that sounds lovely aloy!

7:56 pm

here too, lilli, and you can get taxed twice by both the federal government and the st*** government, sigh

7:57 pm

didn't have time to fix dessert tho, sorry.. maybe someone left some chocolates?

7:57 pm

big grid = less time to cook

7:57 pm

i had a feta cheese salad for my tea with a pork chop chopped up in small pieces without fat!

7:58 pm

chocolates would be just fine, aloy :-)

7:58 pm

love feta, lilliann

7:58 pm

we only have one government here sue

7:58 pm

i do aloy, especially in greece!

7:58 pm

I know, lilli. Here you can even get taxed by some cities on top of everything el4.4

7:59 pm

hi. how's it going with the huge grid?

7:59 pm

but on the other hand our taxes are relatively low even when you add it all up, compared with most of the rest of the world

7:59 pm

hi, angel!

7:59 pm

I've begun making my own laundry detergent. such a neat way to save money.

8:23 pm

whooo hoooo ivesy

8:23 pm

whooo hooooo PERI

8:24 pm

how angel?

8:27 pm

lilli: use a bar of any non-oily bath soap you like. Grate it up with a hand grater or food processor. add 1 cup each baking soda, washing soda and borax. stir to combine. use 2 TBS per load. If clothing is greasy, add 2 TBS Dawn dishwashing liquid to the load. this cleans great, but will not make suds.

And I am back. Stupid house work

8:29 pm

i don't know what borax is and we don't get dawn dishwashing powder here

8:30 pm

dawn is a liquid, not powder

sodium borate

8:30 pm

borax is a lundry booster found with detergent in the stores

8:31 pm

never heard of sodium borate

8:31 pm

we don't get it here

8:31 pm

or we night in another name?

8:32 pm

*might

8:33 pm

Borax is available here too. Lill, look in the laundry section of your supermarket

8:34 pm

HI folks ... just had to chime in on the borax conversation. I love borax. You can use it as you would cleanser and it's nicer to the earth.

8:34 pm

hang on, arew you saying it is a dish washewr liquid??

8:34 pm

hi origami

8:34 pm

It is useful for ants too isn't it?

8:35 pm

omg, spelling crap as normaL :)

Lil you in England?

8:35 pm

AYE

Boots may have it Lil

8:36 pm

oops sorry herin :)

8:36 pm

I've read this laundry soap recipe. After calculating the cost of the ingredients and the time it takes to make it, it's cost prohibitive for me. A good laundry detergent on sale is cheaper.

8:36 pm

Mind you, I don't have a big family. It might work better for those who do.

8:36 pm

i've never seen or heard of it hear! :(

8:37 pm

well, there is only 2 or when hubby ever comes back 3!!

8:37 pm

*here

8:38 pm

we always but whatever is on special bit non bio

I was reading on UK Google that Boots and pharmacy's may have it

8:39 pm

i'll have to look into it herin as boots isn't cheap!

8:40 pm

http://www.users.on.net/~arachne/borax .html...............HOWEVER Angel and co - you may care to read this site

8:41 pm

Hi Lil :-)

Well maybe boots may have it and then you can say O it is that brand and look else where

8:45 pm

just read your profile origami, i'm really sorry about your son and i do play fv on fb but not lately as someone hacked into mine and got into my mail

8:46 pm

Bye everyone

9:28 pm

ty pcj

9:29 pm

9:36 pm

9:36 pm

aren't they. i want to cuddle them!

9:36 pm

clean house? there's a house to clean?

9:37 pm

just don't touch anything or open any doors, everything will look just fine! lol

9:37 pm

Sounds like a solid plan!

9:37 pm

my rule of thumb is "you touch it, you dust it!"

9:38 pm

what type of rabbit is that gobias? i've never seen a long heaired head and then short haired body?

9:38 pm

Maybe if I just set out some cleaning supplies they will get the hint...

9:38 pm

He is a lionhead.

9:38 pm

good plan lbd!! lol

O Gobias your Rabbit is cute

9:39 pm

ok, i've seen that in monkeys but not rabbits

9:39 pm

sw

9:39 pm

he looks ferocious! lol

9:39 pm

He's lucky he is cute. He is a bit of a crab...

9:40 pm

9:40 pm

ha! Welcome to the house. Put these on... :)

9:41 pm

c

9:41 pm

do you have something to say shoo??

9:41 pm

i like that idea, Gobias!

9:42 pm

y aye, nowt wrong with that, just tell them you have allergies or the pets or whatever and they need gloves...good plan!! :)

9:42 pm

for some reason, shoo's lickety expert pops letters into the chat at random times.

9:42 pm

i wasn't having a go at shoo, just wanted to help

9:43 pm

she's probably not even paying attention to the chat

9:43 pm
