hi granny!! **hugs** long time darling!!

2:17 am

I keep telling mrs ru we have to be fit..

hi ruuster! **hugs**

2:17 am

hi mr p

2:17 am

long time, indeed, mrp.

evening ursh, diz et al who are lurking!! :))

2:18 am

hi mrp

have missed you rose... what has been happening up your neck of the woods.

2:18 am

any success with that logic, ruru?

oh ruuster, so glad you have kept the smiling goat!! absolutely love it!!

2:19 am

well.. sometimes grannuy

2:19 am

mayhap you read...i need a total knee replacement...trying to make it to next april...will use my long service leave for recovery.

2:20 am

I remember now..yes.. I forgot in the moment

2:20 am

I have a friend that went through it .. he's doing well

2:21 am

also, our GP says mother mac must be taking care of very well. he didn't think she would make it to 90....she's now 92

2:22 am

ruru, posibilty of being back at work after 3 weeks.

2:23 am

holy cow.. .are you kidding me?

2:23 am

that's great if that's true..

2:23 am

i seem to recover very well from invasive surgery. so here's hoping

2:23 am

yes..

2:24 am

i'll have some knee surgery sometime this fall too

2:24 am

but just reattaching the meniscus (sp?)

2:25 am

not so invasive as yours

2:25 am

meanwhile, i have to get through another 10 months....but i'm stubborn and persistent....and any other adjective you would like to apply

2:25 am

how about stoic?

2:26 am

ruru, both lateral and medial meniscus debrided and a synovectomy....have bone on bone at 3 ponts and just a smear of cartilage left on the others. may need another scope in 6 months

2:28 am

*ouch*

poor rose!!

2:30 am

it's strange, not a great deal of pain....but then i seem to be able to disregard most pain, only when it stops me from doing something....endone is a great drug...even so, still only need 5mg to get me up and going again

my medial meniscus needs repairing, but am ignoring it like crazy!!

2:31 am

nah, mrp, i'm ok...just the body wearing out after over 40 years of earning my keep, on my feet

good girl rose.... 5 mg is a good dose and don't go over it if you can help it

2:32 am

no intention, mrp...not after last time

2:32 am

no idea what endone is

2:33 am

*grin* my surgeon can't work it out. he says i should be on crutches or in a wheelchair...fat chance!!!!

2:33 am

ruru, endone is oral morphine

2:33 am

oh.. like oxycodone

yes, same thing

2:34 am

exactly, the same drug...oxycontin is the slow release drug, endone is the fast release

my body is having a shitty time today after the GA... every joint in my body is aching!!

it will take a few weeks to get out of my system, at least

2:35 am

poor mrp, my heart goes out to you....please do try to take it easy, my dear

2:36 am

I hate to hear that you two are in pain

2:37 am

thanx ruru, just having how we feel validated is a great support

i am darlings... laying in bed, with my tapas, a glass of spritzer and my friend terri1, playing lex and babble.

2:37 am

way to go, girl!!!!

2:39 am

i'm going to stop at 200 for now.. night you two lovely, lovely ladies and take care.

2:39 am

Hi guys. hope you are all well and happy

see ya ruuster.... be a good kid now! :) **hugs**

hi terri! **hugs**

2:41 am

mrp, they are co6 and 7

2:45 am

2:48 am

coput and copouts

2:54 am

Yeah thanks Honey. Hello Gran & Rose

2:54 am

thanx to lickety. and i agree, mrp.

2:54 am

Gran & Rose - sorry MRP & Rose!

2:54 am

hey lynxx

2:54 am

How are you both?

hi lynxx! you need some charddy honey

2:56 am

not chardy - me knees go all wobbly!

2:56 am

lyn, need a total knee replacement....trying to ignore that fact. don't have enough sick leave to cover the recovery period.

2:56 am

oh geez - you had better keep off the chardy too!

2:57 am

still dieting? how is that going?

2:57 am

LOL, brandy alexanders here i come...

2:58 am

is the knee connected to the ankle - not under WC?

2:59 am

lyn, trying to stop the smokes first..have to come off my meds for fibromyalgia first...nearly there. just another 3 weeks.

3:00 am

Watch out Rose - they might shoot you soon! weird how everything has happened to you over the last year or so

3:00 am

lyn, hard to prove...have favoured the left leg because of srgery, hence the right knee is giving me some trouble. insurance comp[any will ar5 that point...so have to pay for it myself

3:01 am

lyn, as i said, earning my living for over 40 years on my feet has to tell .

3:03 am

You are right there.

3:04 am

ruru, you still here? need a hand?

3:09 am

okay, anyone else need a clue or three?

3:11 am

just starting here but thanks

3:13 am

it's a great grid. just watch out for the extra co6/7...but i think lickety has removed them from his list.not a lot of surprises.

3:14 am

nite, then. have fun, all you babbblers left

3:15 am

Bye Rose, look after yourself

3:22 am

Good evening, lynxxx. I hear Melbourne's got an ash cloud?

3:23 am

hi Haz - yes!! was a Queens Birthday long weekend here - a lot of people stuck in airports

3:24 am

and poor old Christchurch has been shaken up again

3:24 am

It was on the BBC news yesterday - a volcano in Chile seems to be the culprit.

3:25 am

Yes, saw the news about Christchurch as well. No fatalities, thank goodness, but some injuries. It must have been frightening.

3:25 am

Yes - seem a lon way away but I suppose it is because we are both down the bottom

3:26 am

They said the volcano had been erupting for a week, no clue as to how long it might disrupt things.

3:27 am

Yeah, they looked very shaken up (on the news)

3:27 am

It is a series of 4 connected volcanos apparently. Your one has quietened down?

3:29 am

I'm assuming so, flights are going as normal. This one was spewing a different kind of ash to the previous one so maybe the effects weren't as bad.

3:33 am

Going to take a break - not dying about this grid. See you later!

3:34 am

bye for now Haz - not into it myself

3:54 am

afternoon all

4:09 am

no one here today or what?

4:26 am

Good morning everyone:) and hello SaddySolar:) am taking a sneaky peak whilst at work lol

4:30 am

Well I think my sanity went a long time ago lol apart from that I am well thank you, supposed to be working am sat in the office and thought lets have a look at the grid lol

4:31 am

to me, jean, that is a perfectly sane action :)

4:32 am

as far as I know, Saddy, you are the only one from pakistan who ever comes into chog. Are you well?

4:32 am

Lol I know :)

4:38 am

just checking if the chog died or my connection is gone

is anybody having trouble with the cursor in the add word box? i have to keep pressing the mouse for it to reappear!!!! and it is VERY ANNOYING

4:45 am

hi sandra, not me, all is going smoothly here. Sounds very annoying indeed.

4:45 am

have you tried closing the game and reopening it?

YES

4:52 am

I'm having the same problem Sandra

4:56 am

does anyone have any solution for this problem?

4:57 am

doesn't look like it, mrswhiski. All I can think of is closing all browsers and restarting. Do you use the Babble Expert from Lickety?

4:57 am

Right have had to do some work lol so am going to log out for now, nice to see everyone will BBL Happy Babbling everyone:)

4:58 am

bye jean, have a good day at work and after :)

4:58 am

Thank you sprite you too :)

5:00 am

No I don't Sprite but my husband just told me internet explorer 9 has been installed so I may need an updated Java. I think I'll sign off and try again later. Thanks for the help.

5:00 am

yvw, and you might want to try firefox or google chrome as new browser. They are less buggy.

5:08 am

phantom of the day: octopus

5:15 am

me too sprite

5:16 am

hi VAgirl

it happened to me when internet explorer 9 was installed

5:20 am

I am very happy using firefox from mozilla. And crossy told me yesterday that the google chrome browser is even better. IE is full of bugs, al4.

5:22 am

hey lady *hug*

hugs

how things?

5:24 am

they have been really tough, but it seems it is almost over. Better times ahead. And I managed to hang on to my sanity, for what it is worth ;) And you?

Oh Spritey.

I am catering for a friends 50th on Sat

5:24 am

I am making her the big cake, sausage rolls, veggie quiche and sweet chilli dip

EUREKA! google chrome has sorted out the cursor problem on my page

Google Chrome is the best out there

5:31 am

5:34 am

ok I need to go on to other things soon. Lady, what is your questionj?

what round sweets are there please apart from maltesers?

5:38 am

hazelnuts in chocolat. Lots of sugary sweets here in holland, like these: http://www.saisonnier.net/resou rces/userdata/pd/alles_over_confiserie /pb_intro_400.jpg M&Ms too. some peppermints and those little green salmiak thingies: http://www.online-snoep.nl/h ome/sys/producten/387_0.jpg

5:39 am

jelly beans too

5:39 am

and these ones: http://www.kikiscandyshop.be/Med ias/Webshop1/cat_37021_a.jpg

5:40 am

oh, magic balls of course, and bubble gum balls

Not gum

but like a gum ball

5:41 am

kokindjes = dutch licorice, like this: http://www.google.com/search?hl= nl&biw=1920&bih=983&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=ko kindjes&oq=kokindjes&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs _sm=e&gs_upl=47906l49070l0l9l6l0l0l0l0 l0l0l

Those Kikis are perfect what are they ?

5:43 am

hello m'lady

What are the round balls called in that pic?

5:44 am

that's all I know for now. you might want to check out some dutch or belgian online shops for 'snoep' or 'snoepgoed'. Those things on the kikiscandyshop are made of sugar, made into different colours, then mixed and folded over and over, stretched and cut. They are called 'zuurtjes' - little sours, literally.

HI Sady.

How are you Saddy

5:45 am

lady, you might want to check out: http://www.kikiscandyshop.be/inde x.asp?langue=EN&DocID=

7:30 am

good morning everyone

7:30 am

((Uusue)) how is your headache?

7:50 am

hi, mom, my son is still having issues with his gf - came home yesterday with a bloody lip and is not here this morning (first day of summer classes) so my headache is back in full force. No mystery about what's causing it :-(

7:51 am

I am so sorry to hear that, Sue.

7:51 am

I know I can't help, but will send good thoughts your way.

7:51 am

thx, mom :-)

7:52 am

sure thing. It is difficult to see your children with someone that you know is not good for them

7:52 am

but I will always be around to listen should you need to vent

7:55 am

thanks - I am off to get my day started now...

7:56 am

((Sue)) take care

8:05 am

hello everybody

8:05 am

((Ruby)) good afternoon

8:06 am

Good morning all

Morning Mom

8:09 am

oh, so sorry!!! bad nel, into the PB

8:09 am

please don't be sorry. **Fixes Ruby a delicious meal to eat if she insist on going into the PB

8:09 am

I think it's important to make things just for you. I cringe when someone says "Oh, I love so and so, but I never fix it because my husband doesn't like it."

8:10 am

hi, help with i pls

8:10 am

Morning, Peri. I don't have it but will help you look for it

8:10 am

I do so much cooking for husband and dogs but currant jelly is a lot of work, so I don't share. However, if any babblers come this way, I will!!!!

8:11 am

need to get going soon, to the food parntry today and wednesday!

8:11 am

hello peri

8:11 am

8:11 am

oh no, that put me in the pb again!

8:11 am

merci, Molly

8:11 am

I agree Molly and I think it is equally important if your sweetie really likes something and you can't stand it, to make it once in a while

8:11 am

you are one busy person, Peri

8:11 am

bye, c u later

8:12 am

bye, c u later

8:12 am

thanks Molly

8:12 am

bye Peri

8:12 am

Yep Mom, I agree. No one need go without a favorite just because the other doesn't like it.

8:12 am

rale

8:13 am

woo hoo, one I didn't have, thanks Ruby

8:13 am

and currants are a great vitamin c source.

8:14 am

I also have black currants but don't like them

8:14 am

fortunately, the birds do

8:14 am

<---- never had currants

8:15 am

they are very sour and have big seeds, but if you take the time, they make glorious, bright red jelly

8:15 am

hah, my maiden name is in here, li4/7

8:25 am

8:25 am

I agree Ruby

8:25 am

there seem to be duplicates but there almost always are

8:25 am

ty mom, I missed it, too

8:26 am

its like the babble machine doen't thoroughly shake the grid

8:26 am

exactly, jmc

8:27 am

It seems like once Dr_God said when the new babble comes out you will be able to rotate the grid that we started having tons of duplicates

8:27 am

you're welcome Ruby

8:28 am

why would that make a difference mom?

8:28 am

8:29 am

8:30 am

We are doing the Waltons thing again.

I am alright, some pain, i may have overdone it last night, by going out to eat and sitting, which in the end turned out to be quite aggravating.

But I have PT at 1 so I am sure he can fix whatever ails me.

9:29 am

oh, good. It is hard not to overdo things sometimes...

I did have fun.

9:30 am

waltons thing?

You know, ru, when everyone says hello to everyone....liek the Waltons said G'night on the TV show?

9:32 am

10:05 am

Yeech. I'm exhausted just thinking about it!

12:44 pm

hi Scrabbs! I'd bring a can for mower gas too

12:44 pm

I pay a kid to do my lawn.

12:45 pm

12:50 pm

Hi RD

12:50 pm

hi River

12:51 pm

thank you river

12:51 pm

nd hello

12:51 pm

i get those or senates.. very cheap and not bad tasting.(sound like a commerical)

12:51 pm

(((scrabs))) sorry to hear about Sebastian

12:51 pm

and*

12:51 pm

Ivesy, you are in Dunkirk!!!!! I am at the Cattaraugus Indian Reservation today and every Monday!! We are close!

12:52 pm

very sad, scrabs, condolences!!!! {{scrabs}}

12:52 pm

RD, I am very sad and miss Sebastian so much. My daily routines are thrown off because I still look for him when I wake up (he would run laps around the room we shared), and go to his room to give him a salad plate, etc.

12:53 pm

l

12:53 pm

Losing our furry babies is so hard.

12:53 pm

yes scrab..we are lol

12:53 pm

yes it is...I am cherishing my last couple months with my lab...treats any time she asks

12:54 pm

awww, sorry River.. still miss our lab so much

12:54 pm

I am focusing on his long life of 9 yrs, that he was hopping and eating until several hrs before he died, and I fortunate enough to hold him when he died.

12:55 pm

I was doing that too, RD--giving him all of the Cheerios he wanted. I often remind my bunnies that WILD bunnies do not eat Cheerios.

12:56 pm

Ivesy, many of my patients here attend Silver Creek Schools just north of you.

12:56 pm

that is a long life for a bunny. You were very fortunate. Thats cute scrabs with the cheerios.

12:57 pm

small world. takes me about 20 mins to get to silver creek. have to stock up in winter . bad driving out that way

12:57 pm

Sebastian would stand up to beg and I would put Cheerios into his mouth. The other 3 stand up too but won't let me feed them. And they all get so excited about their salad plates. Sebastian lived the longest of all of my bunnies. Two previous bunnies got to 7.5 yrs.

12:58 pm

Lake Erie is our snow machine.

12:59 pm

We had one bunny stolen out of his bunny hatch and his companion died a few months later at age 5.

12:59 pm

ooh, FW.. anyone need a clue before I go?

12:59 pm

congrats Aloy

12:59 pm

too many left to ask but thanks

1:00 pm

Congrats Aloy. 180 to go for me.

1:01 pm

ok, off to some not-so-fun activities.. Happy Babbling all! poof

1:01 pm

back again, 169 left

1:02 pm

I just spoke to one of the guides for our hiking trip out west. We start on Sunday and will spend 6 days hiking Bryce Canyon, Zion Natl Park and the Grand Canyon. He said that it will be in the high 30's in the evenings and overnight.

1:02 pm

Hi Pe4

1:02 pm

hello pe4

1:03 pm

Hi Sue

1:03 pm

internet has been down at work all morning, sigh, but now it is back! Just in time for the incoming freshman orientation this afternoon (and of course we are always swamped with students wanting to major in physics - NOT!)

1:04 pm

Haha. One of my patients just finished his 1st yr at Ohio Northern Univ and is majoring in astrophysics.

1:04 pm

1:08 pm

hi, jbp!

1:08 pm

I must get back to work - have a great day everyone

1:08 pm

so, any clues on the U?

1:08 pm

river, colleges are sending notices mostly to students now and not to parents, so be sure she is on top of things...

1:08 pm

or the A in the bottom right corner?

1:08 pm

plural female reproductive organs for the u, jbp

1:08 pm

she does show me everything she gets....nothing yet

1:09 pm

generally, they wait till kids are done with high schooool before sending out stuff to incoming students

1:09 pm

thanks UUsue2!

1:09 pm

graduation is this Saturday....cant believe it

1:10 pm

2:11 pm

2:12 pm

2:13 pm

howdy peri

2:13 pm

lol,had a hiccup there

2:15 pm

well, my son is 21 and can do all of those things but I would just as soon he didn't do any of them (except maybe drive)

2:18 pm

(I was worried for a while that he might marry the crazy b**** but he finally seems to be off her although he did get close enough for her to bloody his lip yesterday)

2:19 pm

:(

2:20 pm

a woman scorned lol

2:20 pm

but these days she can be charged for that,she best be careful

2:21 pm

if he bloodied her lip,i am sure she would call the police

2:24 pm

he told me she didn't do it but then said he'd told her he didn't want to hang out with her and then she "went berserk" - and what, I asked, then you hit yourself in the mouth???

2:24 pm

sigh...

2:25 pm

anyway this is not looking like a very friendly grid (and I am at work, of course)

2:26 pm

i have but scratched the surface of it i am afraid;(

2:30 pm

well then your son made a wise choice

2:33 pm

the right woman generally comes along when you are doing what you love,what inspires you and whammo! there she is sharing your same interests and running into each other at the same places till all you can see is the twinkle in her eye and the honey lustre of her hair in your dreams..then you knwp

2:33 pm

know

2:40 pm

i found mine...20 years ago this october first;)..or she found me...matters not

2:47 pm

well, I certainly hope he finds his!!!

2:55 pm

my son is 17,a young 17 and just in the early stages of dating/having a girl friend

3:05 pm

well, good luck with him, crossy - make sure he is good to her, and that she is good to him - they should bring out the best in each other...

4:26 pm

evening all - just got back from Aquafit - wont finish tonight but thought i's have a quick go

4:27 pm

hi, kazz! Aquafit sounds like fun...

4:28 pm

it is - very hard work but its been working my flabby bits quite well

4:28 pm

good deal :-)

4:28 pm

I did some pool-based rehab after my knee replacements and it was really good

4:29 pm

I think the ar 5/16 that was asked for is an alternate spelling of Jason's ship

4:29 pm

ah, thx, molly!

4:30 pm

we had to do stuff with the long tubes of foam and i just couldnt get it deep enough in the water to stand on it which left in fits of giggles and splutters as i tried not to drown

4:30 pm

I couldn't think of a popular man with that three letter ending name.

4:31 pm

hi all

4:32 pm

Hi Peri. Sounds funny, Kazz.

4:33 pm

<---- Will not comment on "couldn't get it deep enough"

4:33 pm

good idea, Molly

4:33 pm

glad that you did not drown Kazzer

4:34 pm

136 keft abd stuk again

4:34 pm

136 keft abd stuk again no list as yet

4:34 pm

geez, can't type for sh**

4:34 pm

ah yes, they had me doing things with those foam noodles, pretty funny!!!

4:35 pm

Aquafit sounds like fun but I do not like the smell of chlorine

4:36 pm

<--- Actually just looked to see if shit was in the grid

4:36 pm

reminds me a little bit of the time I visited the Dead Sea - went out a little ways, was standing in waist-deep water when I lost my footing (that "salt" is quite slippery) - well, I couldn't stand up again - the water made me so buoyant that I couldn't get my feet to go down!!

4:36 pm

LOL Molly

4:36 pm

Oh dear, sue, that would be scary

4:37 pm

it was pretty funny, actually, although a couple of ladies floating nearby got annoyed as I was splashing a bit - you do NOT want to get that water in your eyes!

4:37 pm

Sue, you have been to some interesting places.

4:38 pm

I have, Molly, and I treasure them all (I actually enjoy traveling although getting on airplanes has turned into a real pain lately)

4:38 pm

<<----------has not been to enough interesting places :(

4:38 pm

I actually live about 40 minutes or so from the Dead Sea. My kids go there for half day trips

4:39 pm

used to live about 40 minutes from the Dead Sea too Michnick

4:39 pm

very cool, mich :-)

4:39 pm

Where did you live Bichon?

4:39 pm

I have an ex-sister-in-law who lives in Hadera and another one who lives at Kibbutz Yahel

4:39 pm

I remember the feeling of the salt on your skin after you'd get out (of the dead sea, that is)

4:40 pm

In Arad, which was really a small town then ['68-'69]

4:40 pm

I remember the smell too

4:40 pm

(I get along very well with all my ex-sils - they don't like their brother any more than I do...)

4:40 pm

Ah, Arad is beutiful! Still a small town, but not like it was then!!

4:40 pm

Cute UU, do you ever come to visit?

4:41 pm

I loved the desert, and no humidity

4:42 pm

We used to go to Ein Gedi too. Lots of fun to see a waterfall in Israel

4:42 pm

I've been twice, mich, but not in the past 10 years

4:42 pm

Where I am is just the edge of the desert. I love the air and the view but too hot for me, still hot & dry is better than hot & humid. I can't the stand "the Center" in the summer.

4:43 pm

I love Ein Gedi. I haven't been too the dead Sea though, not in it I mean. Israel still has a long way to go for wheelchair accessibility!

4:44 pm

when I was working at CERN I had Israeli colleagues, and we had a meeting there; I was able to take an extra week and visit the relatives (my son spent the whole time at his Hadera aunt's)

4:44 pm

We used to go to Masada a lot. Drive through the desert and walk up the back way

4:44 pm

Are you Jewish too sue?

4:45 pm

no, bichon, my son's dad is (ex #2 for me)

4:45 pm

Is he Israeli?

4:45 pm

I'd love to go back and visit. Last time I was there was '77

4:46 pm

no, grew up in New York; two of his sisters made aliyah and have been in Israel for 40 years now

4:46 pm

Wow, it is completely changed, Bichon. Too Americanized for my taste (I love America too, but keep it in America) It is all malls and McDonald's now, Kosher McDonalds, but still it isn't felafel or Shwarma!!

4:46 pm

they are both reform (if that); his third sister (who stayed in NY) became orthodox about 20 years ago

4:47 pm

I've been living here since '85. All my kids are Israeli born.

4:47 pm

theirs too, mich (one has two kids, the other three)

4:47 pm

Trouble is there's so much I'd like to see in this world, I I've seen so much of Israel. I lived there for over a year

4:47 pm

Interesting UUsue that the one that stayed in New York became religious, not surprising though.

4:48 pm

My son decided he wanted to get more in touch with his Jewish roots after staying with his Israeli aunt - somehow attending his cousins' orthodox bar mitzvahs in NY did not have the same effect on him :-)

4:49 pm

Israel can do that to people. Did he ever do anything with it after he went back home?

4:49 pm

not really although we did have a family seder or two before he decided he wasn't all that interested after all

4:50 pm

he has a nice Hanukkah menorah that my Methodist father bought for him :-)

4:51 pm

Interesting. Does he practice religion now?

4:51 pm

no, not at all (and neither do the rest of us unless you count Unitarian services)

4:52 pm

he's been a pretty solid atheist since he was about 5 or 6 years old (I actually pulled him out of the Cub Scouts because of it)

4:53 pm

Explain the Cub Scouts/atheist connection. Is it because it was in a church?

4:54 pm

i have my grandmother's "candelabra" that's actually a menorah! Bless her little Baptist heart! LOL

4:54 pm

it was but it was more because of the national organization - they were starting to demand that all scouts, even little ones, declare a belief in God and were throwing out kids that wouldn't do it - I decided to find him some other activity that he would enjoy (didn't tell him why)

4:55 pm

its changed sue

4:55 pm

yeah, they've gone pretty hardcore Christian

4:55 pm

Une -Does she know it's a menorah?

4:55 pm

really , carlee?

4:55 pm

Sue, What year was that?

4:55 pm

i promise to be true to myself my belief and ( here in canada ) in canada

4:55 pm

she's been gone for 30 years but no, she had no idea! LOL

4:56 pm

i have a hindi girl, a jewish girl, 2 muslim girls and an assortment of i guess christians of various sects of christianity

4:56 pm

the american scouts are different, carlee, they have been adopted by the mormons (who require it of their boys) - they are much stricter about belief in god than either the girl scouts or than boy scouts in other countries

4:57 pm

let's see, mich, it would have been around 1996-97.

4:57 pm

my grandmother announced to her parents at the age of 9 that she was never going back to church with them because their god was mean -- she stayed with the Baptists but not the SOUTHERN Baptists

4:57 pm

then...there should be some kind of documentation sent to the internationals...

4:58 pm

because it is world encompassing and inclusive

4:58 pm

at the age of 9 she left Old Testament God behind :-)

4:58 pm

Interesting, my boys belonged to a branch of the BSA here in Israel. It was connected to an Orthodox troop in Brooklyn. My kids were always so excited there was a boy scout lighting a fire wearing a Yarmulke (Jewish head covering) in the manuel.

4:58 pm

i'd be raising stink

4:58 pm

Is that an official stand?

4:59 pm

ok, taking pups out to pee -- back in a mo *poof*

4:59 pm

in the US they have had themselves declared to be a private religious organization so they don't have to conform to nondiscrimination laws

4:59 pm

they will accept just about any theistic religion (including, oddly, Buddhists) but not atheists

5:00 pm

wow... that is just... wow

5:01 pm

I am shocked and blown away. I had no idea. My brother also belonged to a Jewish troop (not religious but Jewish) back in the 60s. I wonder how the ORthodox troops reconcile that and how the Mormons accept the Jews!!

5:01 pm

what I thought, carlee!

5:01 pm

Ah, Ok, I just read your post Sue, that makes sense.

5:01 pm

I don't agree but now I understand why they accept Orthodox Jews.

5:02 pm

anyway my son was quite clear about being atheist and it wasn't a battle that I wanted to fight, so we just found him other things to do.

5:03 pm

Do kids still pledge allegiance in school? I was still in school when kids were starting to opt out of the "Under G-d" part.

5:03 pm

they do indeed, mich, and in many schools Christian prayer is coming back (not legally but it can be hard to fight)

5:03 pm

Yes, they still pledge allegiance. Those who do not wish to say the "under God" part may remain silent.

5:04 pm

i wish we still sang God Save the Queen :(

5:04 pm

Are they ever pressured about it, Molly?

5:05 pm

Not that I know of, but I don't have young kids anymore.

5:05 pm

there was a lot of fuss at some high school graduations this year when students, parents, and administrators insisted on including prayers (of a very sectarian nature) in the graduation ceremonies - there has been at least one lawsuit, and the student who brought it was uninvited from his own graduation

5:06 pm

The county I live in is hilarious. The kids can't sing any "Christian" Christmas songs, but they learn all about Hannukah. And if Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashana fall on school days, they are days off.

5:06 pm

I went to a public school that was 87% Jewish and we sang all the Christmas songs. I still know the words to Silent Night and I get confused over my own, Jewish, grace after meals!

5:07 pm

well i have been beaten by the grid today - too many words and not enoug hours. See you all tomorrow

5:07 pm

Where do you live Molly? We never went to school on Rosh HaShanna or Yom Kippur (well of course I didn't, but school was closed) and we never had finals on Shavuous - a holiday that falls at the end of May (it was last week).

5:07 pm

Bye Kazz

5:08 pm

bye, kazz!

5:08 pm

I live in a county in Maryland that is predominantly Jewish. When the schools were open on those Jewish holidays, they didn't have enough students to make it worth while.

5:09 pm

at the university we get very few holidays (although Christmas conveniently falls between semesters) but we are encouraged to accommodate everyone's religious holidays

5:09 pm

At our HS Graduations we never had prayer per se, but there was always a religious benediction. A priest, minister and Rabbi rotated year by year so no one minded. Today they'd have to add some other leaders, the disctrict has become very Asian/

5:10 pm

Are you near Silver Spring or Baltimore Molly? (Montgomery County?)

5:10 pm

Yep, Montgomery County

5:11 pm

I only know that because the make up of the county I grew up in was so similar and it was also called Montgomery. I was outside of Philly.

5:12 pm

When I have Saturday morning dentist appointments, I go by five, yes five Temples in six blocks. And a whole lot of people walking to services.

5:15 pm

Yep, very much like my town. on one stretch of the "Main Drag" there were 6 or 7 shuls, 4 Conservative and 2 or 3 Reform. On Rosh Ha Shanna & Yom Kippur there were double or triple shifts of police directing traffic. Totally ironic since you are not supposed to drive on those days. The only day there are NO cars in Israel is Yom Kippur; the most secular stay home.

Several jewish movements have OK'd driving on Saturday- if it's the only way you can get to services. People do what they want according to their own community and personal standards anyway. I'm all for inconsistency.

Did you say you lived in Modi'in?

5:18 pm

No, I live in Jerusalem, near Pisgat Ze'ev.

5:19 pm

my s-i-l told me that it would be ok for me to get a ride to my nephew's bar mitzvah b/c my knee had fallen apart and I couldn't really walk very well...

5:19 pm

You are right Kaplan, communities do set their own standards.

5:19 pm

Is your S-i-l religious?

I'm very consistent about my inconsistency.

5:20 pm

yes, this is the orthodox one

5:21 pm

Oh, Where do they live?

5:21 pm

New Rochelle, NY

I have not made much progress on this grid so I'm taking off.

5:21 pm

bye, kap!

5:22 pm

I am trying to get to halfway but about to give up also. It is too late at night to kill myself over it.

5:22 pm

Bye Kap

5:22 pm

I am past halfway but not much, and have come to a screeching halt

5:23 pm

It is late and I am haunted by multiple phantoms: octopus, salad, road...

5:24 pm

rolf

5:24 pm

5:25 pm

5:26 pm

In 1759, Arthur Guinness leased St James’s Gate brewery (where they brew Guinness) for 9,000 years for 45 pounds a year.

5:26 pm

All I see every time I look at this thing is POTUS the acronym for The President.

7:13 pm

7:16 pm

Oh, all of them Sue. LOL makes me gag. HAGD sounds like someone coughing up lung loogies. The list goes on and on.

7:17 pm

ah, yes, HAGD took me a while to figure out.

7:20 pm

Does it mean 'have a good day'? I'm obsolete....need to be hip. Or whatever is the word now.

7:23 pm

came home from staff retreat to find a rodent had chewed my kitchen rug to pieces

7:23 pm

JMC, are your cats vegetarians?

7:25 pm

one cat and she is just old

7:25 pm

so i just found out that when the cable guy asks you if you want a dvr box and you say no, you still get a dvr box

7:25 pm

for an extra 5.95 per month

7:25 pm

a lesson learned shirl

7:26 pm

when i went to cosi and said i was eating it there they boxed it to go (where they trying to tell me something?)

7:26 pm

bummer, shirl!

7:26 pm

Cable guys are evil Shirl.

7:26 pm

Hello all. Working diligently on the grid. Nothing too traumatic except I'm the slow learner in the training classes for our dog.

7:26 pm

ouch! tell them to take it back and give you a credit

7:26 pm

so to get the box i wanted in the first place, i have to trek out into no man's land (seriously) and return it

7:27 pm

Hi Gran Mere. Murphy is still the cutest dog in the class, I'm sure.

7:27 pm

or have them come out to pick it up between 9 to 12 etc etc and charge me 39.99 for the favor

7:27 pm

i understand the cable office in DC is under a bridge on a non-existent street

7:27 pm

hi, gmere!

7:27 pm

slow but steady wins the race stidm

7:27 pm

<---Considers commenting on "getting a box" in "no man's land". Rejects idea.

7:28 pm

(whispers to molly: good choice)

7:28 pm

what have you been drinking Ms Molly?

7:29 pm

Nothing Peri. Alas, I don't need drink to bring out my bawdy side.

7:29 pm

Hi uu, molly, peery, and jmc

7:29 pm

*wonders if molly has a non-bawdy side*

7:30 pm

ok, just checking.

7:30 pm

*Whispers to JMC....not likely*

7:30 pm

hehehe

7:30 pm

43 left, gong to watch tv for a short while, bbs

7:30 pm

Well, cute, is true. He doesn't know how to do the bow stretch. Confuses him.

7:30 pm

226 left

7:30 pm

NO BABBLING AT WORK TODAY ! *sobs*

7:30 pm

go jmc!!

7:31 pm

bow stretch?

7:31 pm

Oh poor Murphy. Why does he have to learn how to do a bow stretch?

7:31 pm

225 left jmc let's race. Or not.

7:31 pm

Sounds like yoga for dogs.

7:31 pm

Down in the front, rear end sticking up. Bow, stretch.

je when is your last work day?

7:32 pm

It is yoga for dogs. I was showing him the down dog and all he wanted to do was chew my hair.

7:32 pm

bummer, jmc! our internet was out half the day but it finally came back so I was able to get some work done.

7:32 pm

ah, my dog does that spontaneously, gmere, although I don't think she knows a command for it

7:32 pm

and hi, TO!

hi, should not be speaking, massive cleaning underay here and break for dinner is over

7:33 pm

my computer was eaten

7:33 pm

Right uu, it is supposed to be natural and one simply "captures the action, rewards it, and then the dog is more likely to do it on command."

7:33 pm

hi TO

7:33 pm

TO why the spring cleaning urge?

7:33 pm

I love that dog Gran Mere. He's smart enough to know that what is for humans is not necessarily for dogs. Go Murphy!

7:33 pm

my last day is July 31 but I decided today they owe me 2 weeks vacation and a million hours comp time

because i did not do it ad spring is almost over

7:34 pm

lol, jmc, I would totally demand that!

and i cannot see the i word , i cannot go until i find it

7:34 pm

JMC, I read today that severance pay should be a weeks pay for every year worked. Made me laugh.

as well as bottom o

7:34 pm

well i figure if i came in a couple of days in July I could show her what she needs and then I wouldn't have to be around her

7:35 pm

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

7:35 pm

il5/12, TO, one of those bowel words

7:35 pm

bottom O is french airport, TO

7:35 pm

il+you and m* is ** not we

7:35 pm

1. Smart dog. 2. Summer cleaning is never necessary, wait TO. 3. Vacation time is time well spent. Try to get money when you're leaving a job is rather impossible in my estimation.

7:36 pm

i spent the day packing since i couldn't get on the computer

7:36 pm

I figure that severance pay formula was developed by gabillion dollar a year, corporate jet flyin' execs.

7:36 pm

giggle stidgm very compact

ty. but stdige company is coming and needs the table i use for a desk and mail drop.

7:36 pm

7:36 pm

let them use the floor TO

later everyone, i feel better now that those two tiles are put to rest

7:37 pm

or get a nice cheap card table, TO

no it is my retirement planner, i ill roll out the red carpet.

7:37 pm

bye TO

je, interested in seeing steely dan aug 9?

7:38 pm

However JMC, it is my fondest hope that you receive a nice severance check for all the hard work you have put into this project you are leaving. In my way of thinking, you deserve that.

7:38 pm

can't i will be entertaining kenyans but thanks for the invite

7:38 pm

what molly, said, jmc!!

7:38 pm

i just want to finish my damn book

7:38 pm

any one of you a good editor? there must be a professional editor in babbleland

7:39 pm

what kind of book jmc?

7:39 pm

No, but I can proof read like a ruthless bitch.

7:39 pm

hmmm that has some appeal molly

ok later

7:40 pm

7:40 pm

bye TO don't work too hard

7:40 pm

Frank was a newspaper editor, would that help?

7:40 pm

i've done some editing, jmc.

7:40 pm

i need someone to read the whole thing and tell me which essays to drop out

7:41 pm

preferably for the fee of being mentioned

7:41 pm

how long is it? page-wise

7:41 pm

how many pages?

7:41 pm

hi lbd

7:41 pm

hi jmc, hi everyone

7:41 pm

about 100 8X11 and I need to make it shorter

7:42 pm

one of my Friends is a good editor but horrifically slow reader and my sister was working on it but she just got switched from 3 days to 4 days a week at politifact

7:42 pm

25,000 words then?

7:42 pm

she is really trying but it is clear she doesn't have the time

7:42 pm

let me go see shirl

i ould be glad to read for you, je

7:45 pm

yes about 25,000 words give or take -- i still have one more chapter to shape

8:11 pm

i'm busy polishing the drawer knobs, welki

8:11 pm

8:11 pm

*Starts singing John Prine's "Blow Up Your TV*

8:12 pm

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

8:13 pm

8:14 pm

the first half of the show was okay.. he was too drunk to understand later on.

8:14 pm

8:15 pm

8:42 pm

what, you mean you don't, ruru???

8:42 pm

i just try to keep the rats out of the house

if the front is really wood, it is a very good idea to wax it to keep from getting white water streaks

so i can see the merits of sink axing esp for stainless steel

8:43 pm

how about the first pe6?

8:43 pm

and do you go back and make up the bed after "DH" is awake or do you tell the d*** to do it himself

8:43 pm

Notice the interest in whether or not Ruru waxes his wood. Hmm.

8:44 pm

11:02 pm

how's it going?

11:03 pm

not too badly. how're you?

11:04 pm

oh, you know...SSDD ;)

11:04 pm

heh. yeah, suppose so

11:05 pm

just popped in to find my last few words...and sure enough...wait long enough, you're bound to have the 4's just jump out at you...*sparkleflies*

11:06 pm

grats :) i'm not gonna finish, i'm sure. still have 156 left, and am too tired to stare at this for another hour

11:06 pm

Oh, I so know what you mean...felt like that yesterday...

11:06 pm

...it'd sure be nice if the biggies were on the weekends ;)

11:07 pm

i didn't finish yeterday, either.

11:07 pm

yesterday, even

11:10 pm

so, other than being busy...everything going well?

11:11 pm

ok, i guess. except that i forgot to file something with the irs, so they're revoking my tax free status unless i refile my 501 application and send $400.

11:11 pm

that rather sucks.

11:11 pm

oops - that sucks ... hopefully all turns out well!

11:12 pm

yeah; gotta decide now if it's worth the $400 to refile. Which means i should probably go back through my last couple years and see how much i'm actually ahead by deducting...

11:13 pm

yikes...and at the beginning of summer...not a good way to spend good weather ;)

11:15 pm

good weather? it's thunderstormy here. :P

11:15 pm

anyway, bruce is wanting attention, so i'm wandering off.
