1:47 am

Hi Ruby: hope all is well.

1:47 am

hello flosey. How are you?

1:48 am

scouser! I have been hoping to see you because of your hat/mushroom comment the other day. I used to say the same thing about myself, loving hats but being much too short to wear them well

1:50 am

I have been v. busy w gardening and grandchildren and history-organisation committments: I even had to reluctantly skip a Babble or two. Also lost broadband for two whole days .... aaaaargh.

1:50 am

good thanks ruby, glad you were able to drop in to say hi

1:50 am

my cousin and her daughter (21) are visiting. I am very happy to see them

1:52 am

froggy* or groggy froggy!

1:53 am

hi scouser and FF

1:53 am

hi flosey xxx

1:55 am

I have come to the conclusion that Enable has incorporated a list of "how to pronounce words" as well as being partisan pro-border-Scots. see fi4/8

1:57 am

imagine if they decided to incorporate how to pronounce it in all the different dialects, i.e strong irish, strong cornish, strong welsh lol - you'd need an entire dictionary for each word!!

1:58 am

Yes - we would require something the size of Brewsters for scouse/Liverpudlian

1:58 am

can i have some clues 4 the fr8 da8 and the de8 please

2:00 am

fr8/6 usually refers to activity: dashing about madly

2:08 am

are we all back or was it just me that lost connection lol?

2:10 am

hellooooo

2:15 am

helloooooo varumba!!!!!

2:21 am

2:32 am

oh, I see that they did get entered after all, they just didn't show up on my word list until I came back

2:35 am

20 to go, think I'd better get to bed, goodnight all

2:35 am

god night flosey, sweet dreams :D

2:35 am

be back in the morning

2:36 am

good*

2:40 am

could i have another clue 4 the fr8 please

2:42 am

starts like Canada's other main language and ends with a nervous t**

2:42 am

it ends with that 2 letter ending that rhymes with Rick

2:43 am

we make a good duo varumba!

2:43 am

:)

2:43 am

I n***ly wrote t**m

2:43 am

lmao

2:43 am

its the bit in the middle i cant get must be having a blonde momen t

2:44 am

ok, so you start with fr, right? then you carry on in that diagonal for 1 letter..... then you go all the way across till the left edge of board

2:44 am

then that ending

2:44 am

only four letters of the language are at the start

2:45 am

3:07 am

hi ruby - that was a whoopsie journey for the relatives !

3:08 am

I can relate ruby once I was in France with 2 babies and the car I was in was separated from the rest of the train and there we sat..that was back in 1966

3:08 am

ruby, everything was hunky dory....until my right knee packed it in....having a menisectomy on the 23rd :(

3:08 am

oh no rose you must be so tired of all of it

3:09 am

just when you were just about whole again

3:09 am

got it, tx rose and all

3:10 am

you need another cruise

3:10 am

westy, if i didn't have o9bligations which my(then) widower would have to meet, i would have registered for the nearest loonie bin long ago*grin*

3:10 am

westford our paths must have crossed many times over the years! I was in France with my baby in summer '64 and then for a year when he was 4

3:11 am

rose if you had we wouldn't know you so I'm so glad you didn't

3:11 am

ruby, I wouldn't be surprised but I was only in Paris for a stopover before Marseilles

3:11 am

perhaps some of us are already playing from our various international oony bins! lol

3:11 am

would love to go back

3:12 am

loony*

3:12 am

yoou could visit Annecy via Moscow hahah

3:12 am

LOL, thanx westy. *sigh* sometimes i wonder where i8t all will end. ortho surgeon is grumbling about a total jopint replacement. i told him, don't go there. i need to work at least another 4-5 years.

3:13 am

what did you do to your knee rose?

3:14 am

ruby I'll have to ask your cousin about the finer points of train travel lol

3:14 am

and their cell phone wouldn't work outside of Italy. It was awful, they didn't get here 'til 9PM

3:15 am

they must be wiped out

3:15 am

nothing as far as i can remember. think it was favouring the left ankle, and putting too much weight thru the right knee and hip.

3:16 am

rose, it usually doesn't take much

3:16 am

it's probably all your dancing, granny! those tangos will do you in!

3:16 am

with a rose in your teeth

3:16 am

ROFL, ruby, not the tango....the twist

3:17 am

aha so that's where you got your name

3:17 am

ROFL, thanx ruby, needed that laugh

3:19 am

I used to be able to dance all night, now I'm out of breath after a flight of stairs

3:20 am

oh, de4. sounds like me....are we getting old, do you think?

3:21 am

I agree and I hate it

3:21 am

it's OK as long as I don't look in the mirror

3:21 am

beats the alternative though lol

3:21 am

LOL, ruby, right there with you, babe

3:22 am

I'd like a body transplant

3:22 am

and think of all of the friends and relatives we've lost prematurely. We may have aches and pains, but we're the lucky ones

3:23 am

or rather a booby transplant

3:23 am

my mom will be 95 this month but she's in a nursing home confined to a bed

3:23 am

lol rose

3:23 am

3:24 am

true ruby, too true

3:24 am

6:53 am

I agree Kap.

thank you. and how are you this lovely morning?

6:54 am

I am thinking good thoughts. And you?

i haven't had my coffee yet. So I imagine that I'm OK but don't really know for sure.

6:55 am

Understandable.

good word- fr8.

6:58 am

Oh look. There is Our Miss Brooks.

Great show.

Talk about an actress being typecast for an entire career because of her voice. Could you imagine her as a romantic lead?

7:00 am

Not unless her counterpart was equally unique.

Jimmy Cagney?

7:01 am

Definitely two unique voices.

Jimmy Durante

Hope that doesn't put me in the PB.

What's the verdict?

7:02 am

I'd go with Cagney. Or maybe Bob Hope.

7:03 am

And no PB for you.

I mean on the PB for me.

Oh, thank you.

7:05 am

Good morning everyone!

8:29 am

trying to talk myself into the yogurt i brought for breakfast. im really not feelin it, but i should have it.

8:31 am

eating my yogurt here - come join me

8:32 am

I would rather starve all day than eat one bite of yogurt.

8:33 am

i enjoy the taste of yogurt and there are so many different flavors now

8:34 am

me too Molly - never liked yogurt

May I have a clue for da8/70?

8:36 am

da + do you **ed help + unwanted growth in your garden/lawn

8:36 am

started eating it when i was giving it to my two sons - the youngest one is lactose intolerant and yogurt was a way to get the milkproducts in to him; the other had many ear infections and yogurt helps when you are on antibiotics

8:36 am

you have to get yogurt without gelatin in it - that stuff is nasty. I like Wallaby yogurt and Greek Gods.

Thanks River!

Ah, never mind, I see you have.

11:07 am

no i hadn'ts lol

11:08 am

i wish i looked that good!

11:09 am

why did you think I had seen it?

11:12 am

Because you were checking his breathing below in the chat.

11:13 am

"His breathing below"...that didn't come out right.

11:16 am

I was checking that because he passed out holding his breath waiting for me to come back yesterday and when I left last night he was doing it again.

11:16 am

lol

11:21 am

Hello ladies, hello all

11:23 am

2:02 pm

hah. im sure they could help too, westy ;)

2:02 pm

you might be right about that evan lol

2:03 pm

what are they? late teens, early 20s?

2:04 pm

3 early 20's and a 5 and 7 yr old

2:05 pm

heh. hopefully you didnt text the 5 or 7 year old, then. ;)

2:05 pm

Granddaughter probably told her Mom that you need Margret's Mix and Crayolas.

2:05 pm

no lol her mother would have helped though

2:05 pm

I like that Molly

2:06 pm

not much good Mexican food in RI so I try to make a feast once a year started when we lived in CA

2:07 pm

am partial to the Margarets myself

2:08 pm

i just learned today that apparently a popular drink in mexico is tequila and grapefruit juice...

2:08 pm

ooh wonder what it's called?

2:09 pm

i dunno, but apparently what we call a Screwdriver, they call a Paloma

2:10 pm

doesn't that sound more romantic?

2:10 pm

Hi there. My husband drinks ruby red grapefruit juice with Hornitos tequilla. He calls it a bright and sunny.

2:10 pm

wait, looking it up, it seems that the tequila + grapefruit drink is called a Paloma...

2:10 pm

hi gram will have to try that

2:11 pm

mmm paloma

2:11 pm

afternoon kiddoes

2:11 pm

I'll take a Crayola.

2:11 pm

He used to drink dark and stormies; so when he switched he called these a bright and sunny

2:11 pm

hi jmc how've you been?

2:11 pm

jmc -- we were just having that conversation amongst my group of friends.

2:12 pm

I think I had a dark and stormy in Bermuda

2:12 pm

2:12 pm

2:13 pm

Uncle Julio's

2:13 pm

2:13 pm

Uncle julios looks like it is terrible but it is really okay

2:13 pm

2:14 pm

We're having pork carnitas, tomatillo sauce, fresh salsa home-made guacamole, pinto beans w/bacon and onion, arroya rice and flan caramel for dessert

2:14 pm

and i no longer go to the austin grill since the chi chi "chit" they served last time

2:14 pm

uncle julios is ok. tia queta is actually pretty good -- we dont consider it to be officially spring until we get to sit on the outside deck and drink pitchers of sangria. :)

2:14 pm

yum gramma

2:14 pm

I'm a cheap date. I love Chitpole.

2:14 pm

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

2:15 pm

chipotle is okay

2:15 pm

I don't think there is a te7

2:15 pm

sorry, my last word is the RE 7/32, not Te

2:16 pm

pretentious, rude, expensive, food isnt that great, and the one time i ate there, there was plastic in my food.

2:16 pm

oh well i would never go there! lol evan not my thing

2:16 pm

ick! plastic?!?! you demanded a refund?

2:16 pm

I have to build again for that one

2:16 pm

molly, i keep wanting to try Mrs K's, but i keep forgetting about it! i also want to try the old post office place in silver spring...

2:16 pm

I'm sorry I don't have it either; but, I'll look

2:17 pm

ty, westford

2:17 pm

2:20 pm

Small world.

2:20 pm

2:21 pm

molly, isnt it true that Tollhouse Cookies originated at Mrs K's?

2:22 pm

I always thought that was up here somewhere

2:22 pm

but I'll eat them no matter where they originated

2:25 pm

ok. time to head out. enjoy your celebrations, all!

2:25 pm

hi, all--down to 3 and need help -- the re 5/10 below the person who has a lease?

2:26 pm

2:26 pm

How about the 3rd ra 5/12?

2:26 pm

oh, of course! th, gram!

2:27 pm

yw

2:27 pm

*hangs head and kneels at molly's feet to beg forgiveness for typo on Silver Spring*

2:27 pm

how about the te 6/21 above the canvas structure?

2:28 pm

the ol' hedgehog foam

2:28 pm

te6 - number + short for basement play room

2:29 pm

a number and short for one of the R&R's military people take

2:29 pm

third day in a row i failed to see that!!!!

2:29 pm

ty, west and bzz!

2:29 pm

yw

2:29 pm

today it's spelled differently though

2:29 pm

and finally, the te 6/21 above the sea bird?

2:30 pm

drop the l from a Toyota model

2:31 pm

hmm...

2:31 pm

used to be anyway, daughter #3 had one

2:31 pm

nope, that isn't ringing any bells, west

2:32 pm

or i should say, lighting any fireworks

2:32 pm

sounds like abrupt and concise

2:33 pm

How about a clue for the 3rd ra 5/12? please.

2:33 pm

isn't that the te 5/12?

2:33 pm

I need a te 6/21 a copule down from that te 5

2:33 pm

it is I can't count

2:34 pm

so is it just me or is it a little odd to have a student send me an email that is addressed "Hey, Suzanne!"

2:34 pm

just add a vowel after the t

2:34 pm

ra5: rhymes with da*** like fred astaire

2:34 pm

it is odd sue and it's not just you

2:35 pm

rhymes with d***ing with the stars

2:35 pm

I mean, I am three times as old as they are and have several more degrees, wouldn't a title be more appropriate? (like dr., which I have in fact earned???)

2:35 pm

ty. See you all later. Off to the post

2:35 pm

bye, gramma!

2:35 pm

bye gram tc

2:35 pm

ty. BBL off to the post office

2:35 pm

13 left....bbl

2:35 pm

thx, west, just needed to get that off my chest :-)

2:36 pm

I used to bristle when friends' children called me by my first name

2:36 pm

that too :-)

2:36 pm

sigh--i guess i'm being dense, west--i tried adding an i and an o to that 6/21, but no go

2:37 pm

etiquette isn't what it used to be

2:37 pm

we always called our parents friend by their first name. This was New York City

2:37 pm

foam it's one of those 2

2:37 pm

I'd respond to the email with a formal salutation and closing.

2:37 pm

sorry, i mean to that te5

2:37 pm

I did, bea (and addressed him as Mr.)

2:38 pm

add a t, foam

2:38 pm

It was a male...Figures.

2:38 pm

and bichon, somehow I don't mind that as much, but in what should be a professional setting it is rather jarring

2:38 pm

well thanks sue I was again clueing the wrong word

2:38 pm

yes, I don't seem to get it that much from the women. sigh.

2:39 pm

sorry foam

2:39 pm

just tried again, no go

2:39 pm

NO, not in a professional setting, but the friends my parents socialized were on a first name basis. OUr teachers weren't

2:39 pm

Hi all. Can I have a clue for the re7 after to go in again?

2:40 pm

= to build again, wht

2:40 pm

the one i have is to rebuild, wht

2:40 pm

we had a lot of Aunties and Uncles who weren't related

2:40 pm

anyway I am done complaining for a while and am going back to work - bbl!

2:41 pm

hurry back sue

2:41 pm

my nieghbor's children all call me by my first name. I'm not a very formal person. I do call my doctors by their title.

2:42 pm

I don't think I'd mind that today bichon but back then all our kids' friends called me Mrs.

2:43 pm

not just me..there was one little girl and we still laugh about it who called my husband Mrs. and just called me by my last name

2:43 pm

I think it's where you live and the custom. WWhen I lived in Israel, the teachers were all called by their first name

2:43 pm

well, i give up for now on that te--painful, when it's the last... anyone need any clues?

2:44 pm

she's married with kids of her own now and still addresses her Christmas cards that way

2:44 pm

I'm not used to be called Ma'am, but in essence, it's really okay.

2:44 pm

Ma'am makes me feel really old

2:45 pm

I hate being called Ma'am.

2:45 pm

foam let's try one more time

2:45 pm

I think that is why I hate it...

2:45 pm

It just reminds me of how women are called in other parts of the country, but it's no different than Sir

2:45 pm

:) I'd like that, west

2:46 pm

it's a te 6/21 and comes after which word?

2:47 pm

before or after another te 6/21 that is fourth from the bottom, above the seabird

2:48 pm

belated thanks foam. Got interrupted.

2:48 pm

That is fireworks for me.

2:48 pm

congrats, wht!

2:48 pm

the 5 letter sea bird?

2:48 pm

yay wht !!

2:49 pm

the 4-letter seabird

2:49 pm

That te ends with a word fromn wedding vows.

2:50 pm

the last 5 words are 21-21-4-10-21 -- I'm missing one of the te 6/21, the one that isn't "sounds like abrupt + t"

2:50 pm

THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2:50 pm

YEA!

2:51 pm

yay !!!

2:51 pm

now share lol

2:51 pm

for your patience

2:51 pm

wtg foam

2:52 pm

hmm--part of my thought got lost--i['ll try again

2:52 pm

is it the one that rhymes with Brosnan?

2:52 pm

That te6 rhymes with a city in Ohio or Spain

2:52 pm

ty, bzz, and ty, west, for your patience

2:52 pm

and yes, can i return the favor for anyone?

2:52 pm

te 6/21 sounds like to rip + word from wedding vows

2:52 pm

yvw foam hated to have you leave with just one left

2:53 pm

:)

2:53 pm

thanks wht and bea

2:53 pm

i see the unofficial day theme has won out over the official theme

I am lost.

5:56 pm

*hands kap a map*

5:56 pm

what's the matter kap?

This is a map of Jersey.

Can't understand chog.

5:57 pm

would you rather have a map of Texas?

I need a map of Shebogen.

5:57 pm

*looks in map drawer*

5:57 pm

oh sorry the only city map i have DC and Baltimore

5:58 pm

what don't you understand about the chog de**?

what anyone was talking about.

5:58 pm

*sits with a teapot and two cups and pours tea*

where am I?

5:59 pm

Why do you need a Sherbogen map? How big is it? Where is the north/south main street?

5:59 pm

min was making me go to the pb because my computer left in the words en5 a message when i en5ed a message

I think it's Sheboygen but I don't even know.

Do you know that you used to be able to Map Quest "Boston to Paris" and it would tell you to swim the Atlantic Ocean?

6:01 pm

i commented that the unofficial theme of cinco de mayo has won out over the official theme of Things That Just Aren't The Same

6:01 pm

(sorry TO)

6:01 pm

You don't have to go to the PB if your fingers, being unsupervised, typed in some word that just happened to be on the infernal grid.

It would tell you which harbor to jump from

6:01 pm

you are among friends that is all you ne** to know

6:01 pm

I DIDN'T TYPE IT!

I think it's wrong to blame things on fingers. There is personal responsibility, you know.

6:01 pm

Jump from Bo ston, go by way of Ireland.

6:02 pm

it is in the chat box when you first open the page :-(

hello

6:02 pm

how is stidkid doing? -- still living at home? or has he made good on his idea to move out?

6:12 pm

I know K was very worried about it.

6:14 pm

Everyone is at home, last I checked. A kid with no employment or money has few options.

6:14 pm

that is true -- but doesn't seem to stop some of them!

6:15 pm

their grades. today was the last day of classes and now they are all jumping up and down wanting to know how they can improve their grades.

7:51 pm

a question that it would have been better to ask at the beginning of the semester...

7:52 pm

a little late for that, no?

7:52 pm

7:52 pm

indeed, wild, happens every semester, though

7:52 pm

7:52 pm

I suspect it gets worse each year. Kids are becoming more and more unable to do what they need to do on their own

< --- worst student ever (well, almost, i mean i never got pregant or anything really bad)

we had a blizzard and school closing on May 10 once, when i was growing up

7:54 pm
