I've been looking for it, sprite, in tineye.com - found a fairly large version, but still unreadable and not being talked about where it's posted.
ha crossy will love the b5
good morning all
Hi! :)
hey rbud :) Hi Kallia :)
Sprite - I put 'pomegranate images' into Yahoo search and then after those images pop up I refined the search to 'pomegranates in art' and a whole new set of images comes up. Oddly enough, it makes a HUGE difference whether you make pomegranate plural or not.
I found the pic in any places, but nothing *about* the pic. Here's one: http://www.squidoo.com/fruit-folk lore
*many, not any - sticky keyboard
can ALMOST read the sig in that one...
Sprite – So somewhere within the search 'pomegranates in art' I found the image I have in my profile. I think poms are so very lovely, decorative, sexy, and delicious. Good luck! :)
I can almost make out the signature, boat, in the one I found ... I want to say S**eann Y... not sure.
doesn't help much, lol
lol :D Well will try to help, but I think rbud is way ahead of my. My puter keeps rebooting. Have ruled out spyware, malware and software issues... so must be hardware. Argh.
How many words today please
Thanks for looking rbud :) Ya, the signature at the bottom of the pic is really difficult to make out. I'd love to know who made the picture. It really is lovely.
hi gran, only 78
Thanks
tineye.com is really neat, you can put images into it and it will give you all the places it can find that image on the net.
it's a tapestry, embroidery, something like that - might be very old, lots of samplers are hundreds of years old.
but yes, lovely! :)
That's so cool! I've occasionally thought of something like that, wishing I could put an image into the web and it could tell me where it came from and now Bingo! It can. Thanks!
That's so cool! I've occasionally thought of something like that, wishing I could put an image into the web and it could tell me where it came from and now Bingo! It can. Thanks!
Well, I'd like to know who the artist is because I like to post artist credit whenever I post anything.
You're welcome - it doesn't always come up with results, but I would say at least 95% or more of what I've put in was found. Mostly doesn't work if I try some section of something instead of a whole image.
Are there any lists posted
one in babbler anon at bottom of page
good morning
hugs all around!
thanks to negativeneil

i dont own one..would be hard to do so :p
lol
this is crossy's grid, I see
ugh..i hate wednesdays
appers to be so yes
( although not "doing" grid)
any reason why the wednesdays? Or just because?
morning all ! :) can't find any of the o's, any help ?
hiya deb :)
ahhh..occupy london is shut down... ( ontario)
I have the big killing whale in black and white, a 6 that starts as a play that is sung, and one that starts oo, a babblet
er.... carlee... that one went high over my head.
you know occupy wall street...
london ont had their own....was shut down over night..police cleared them out
no? What is that? A tv series? A game?
protestors..its happening all over NA in major cities,,, people have been camped out in public gathering spots...
thanks, i got those except for the oo

how about clues for the r and t in the bottom corners?
hm I have those, hold on

th4 + **dine is great for desinfecting wounds
got the t, thanks ;)
ok apropos the ro4: a dissolute and licentious man; rake. Oldfashioned word, i think. The R is the only consonant.
thank you :)
yvw :)

and I have to start gettign ready for work..my wed-thurs marathon begins shortly...
have a great day, deb :)

hi DC traveler
hey, car :-)
Hello!
what a great time you picked to go
It was gorgeous! Could not have asked for a better vacation!
I love DC
I am totally in love with the architecture!
I could live at the Smithsonian
indeed!!
I could easily live at the Natural History Museum! I have to say though, we were very disappointed with the American History Museum. They have made some changes and they are not for the better.
oh that's too bad
And I was awed by the WWII Memorial. Just gorgeous.
me too..very moving
And the boys did so well! I am so proud of them!
so much history right there..what a great experience
I got to see Ford's Theater and Peterson House (just from the outside) which I had not seen before....again, you can feel the history there.
Oh boy! Just found ba 5/16! Does Crossy know?!?!?
I have a funny story..we lived in Annapolis in the late 70's and we made lots of trips into DC when people came to visit..one day our son who was 7 at the time seemed a little put off because his sister had a museum named after her..her name is Erin and he thought we were going to the Erin Space Museum
LOL! That is so cute!
how cute! LOL
I thought of Crossy right away lol
i think we ALL thought of Crossy :-)

Hi Good

((uusue)) good morning, how was the biopsy?
hey uusue :).
Crossy's favorite food is here today
hi, mom and india, the biopsy wasn't much fun (although actually not too bad), but I won't get the results until next week
nobody seemed to think it was likely to show anything unusual, though
praying for good news
thanks, mom!
:-)
and how did I miss crossy's favorite food??
what did you have biopsied?
my thyroid, india, some details in my profile (although you have to read about astronomy before you get to it :-)
haven't been here much. didn't know what you were going thru sue. prayers sent your way~~~~~~
thanks, GE! I think it should be fine.
i will keep my fingers crossed :)
thanks, India!
waiting for procedure or results can be so exhusting
even when you really feel all will be well
it can, GE, fortunately I am not too worried about this one
okay. im getting nowhere fast with this one. best get ready for work. Good day to all!
and I have other worries to occupy me in the meantime (ex-husband defaulting on properties that I deeded over to him during divorce may push me into bankruptcy)
bye, GE!
good day to you as well. ((uusue))
rounds up a posse to take care of ex

yes, kallia -- thanks -- changed mine as well
ty..do you have rememberance day in the States?
I think it's the same as Veterans' Day here -- Nov. 11
yes that's it :)
a little early but I feel it warrants a few days thought
Good morning everyone
true
afternoon Mr Bob
coincidentally, just this week, I found a postcard at the bottom of my grandmother's cedar chest -- sent to her by my grandfather from France in 1918
hey, mr bob
wow that's a treasure
my great-uncle was killed at the Somme
I also found a silk handkerchief he sent her from France, embroidered with "to my beloved wife" -- priceless, eh?
terrible times . . .
we found his grave a few years back, and managed to get him added to the Scottish Wat Memorial at Edinburgh
he served with the Canadian Forces
oh, that's wonderful, kallia
absolutely priceless
It was very moving going there, in a tiny village in France, all the white headstones and the cemetery beautifully kept
I can imagine how meaningful that was for you and your family
yes it was
this is not an easy grid...too many o's and a's and all vowels lol
I have 18 left and cant see a thing
Hi All
hello hego
Is there a list anywhere?
I don't know
Sigh... I miss expert.
I only ever do what I can without the list...I take clues from the grid, but then I don't mind not finishing these days
hi hego and kallia..une has a list in her profile
Good for you Kalia
ty Westford
hello West...Hego I used to HAVE to finish it.....spent hours sometimes lol
list in my profile
not so important these days
(off in a fog, scanning family pix from 100 years ago)
I just read back une what treasures
Hi Une. ty for the list.
hi and yw, hego
Une what a great way to spend some time....I have some really old one too
hey, west -- yes, they're just amazing :-)
even found my grandmother's button hook :-)
I like the list because it saves time when I get stuck. Don't always finish either.
wow, where did you uncover these treasures?
my husband's great aunt Mildred hid her sister's button hook so she wouldn't get married..Mildred was 5 at the time
had to empty my grandmother's cedar chest so handyman could bolt one of the feet back on -- had never delved all the way to the bottom!
How exciting!
that is amazing, and exciting
it really is :-)
lol West......did it stop her?
no lol
thought not lol
just read back in chog -- west, that is hilarious!
really funny
My great Grandfather got married for the 2nd time at the age of 92.....they only lived together for 3 months and then she left him
I just love those family stories
he lived until he was 98
Kallia that is priceless
I have a newspaper cutting about it
Kallia, what a hoot!!
he was a bit of a rogue I think...I am almost sure that he fathered a child bu his sis in law......
Good morning, all.
hi judi
I was 67 when I got married and I thought I was ridiculously old.
Wow. That's quite a geriatric soap opera, Kalia.
Hi Judi
the census returns show a niece, and then 10 years later the same child is listed as a daughter.....maybe he forget ol
Hello Judi
Still married, though. lol
oh yes he was married to my GGrandmother for almost 70 years
I'll be 67 next year. Maybe there's hope then lol
not sure my husband would approve
Don't give up. lol
there's always hope west :)
Uh oh.
hi all
Hi JMC
just joking took me 46 years to get him right
hey, jmc :-)
hi jmc

good morning all :)
Pini!
howdy pini
well I'll be a monkey's aunt !! hi pini
so nice to see you here
Pini !! good morning to you too.... so nice to see you here !!
?? mary dyer??
* giggle *
hi pini you are up before the birds!
I meant Ann
oh now I'm all mixed up
don't know her tell me about her
my phone rang an hour ago and the alarm just went off...since I'm up on my day off thought I'd drop in here ;)
she was a friend of Ann Hathaway's who was banished from Mass for heresy
and went back and was hanged? that was mary dyer
Nice to see you Pini.
The Dyer woman was hung..unbelievable what Quakers went through
and yes it was an amazing story of faith and determination
that's the one
and I knew hung didn't sound right
yes and they got in trouble again during the american revolution for refusing to fight
more than just a face on an oatmeal box
lots of them had everything taken from them and others were beaten and tourtured
and lot of them fled to canada
crossy, your favorite food is in the grid! :)
haha that was one of my mother's pet peeves
IT IS!
YAAA!
that an loan as misused as a verb
that's the best clue ever!! lol
* grin *
haha good clue pini
hi krysten
ty Pini
* curtsey *
•"Our evidence shows that hung for hanged is certainly not an error. Educated speakers and writers use it commonly and have for many years. . . . " Hanged is, however, more common than hung in writing. It is especially prevalent when an official execution is being described, but it is used in referring to other types of hanging as well. . . . "The distinction between hanged and hung is not an especially useful one (although a few commentators claim otherwise). It is, however, a simple one and easy to remember. Therein lies its popularity. If you make a point of observing the distinction in your writing you will not thereby become a better writer, but you will spare yourself the annoyance of being corrected for having done something that is not wrong." (Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of English Usage, 1994)
and it just so happens that i have a few fresh rashers of maple kissed,hickory smoked porkine goodness in the fridge ready to go at this very moment:)
Hi Haz!
haz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
'Tis I
wb!
heat some up for me, crossy!
morning haz
what can i say haz my mother was a purist
Good morning/afternoon all.
loan has long since become a verb too
it is the same thing with lit v.s lighted or dived v.s dove which drives me nuts
phantom: raccoon
It's one of those things where you can use either but people will probably fight to the death for their particular preference.
Good to know, Haz. We actually have a TV show here in the states, entitled "Hung". It's about a male prostitute. Excellent show.
but i still can't use it that way since i always her my mother say loan is a noun and lend is a verb
as in :he lighted a smoke and dived into the pool"..drives me batty
No matter how you say it, it can't be good. lol
I guess the usage of hanged vs hung depends on the context. "She was hanged" certainly means something entirely different than "He was hung".
what?!?! some how i have missed THAT show
haha hego so true
thanks haz but it seems better to say he was well hung than well hanged unless there was a rope around his neck
I'd side with your mother on the loan v lend, jmc.
haha krysten
It's on HBO, jmc.
Judi, that's a whole other hung.
snap krysten
ah i don't get that judi
wow this grid is a bear
you can use one as present tense as in "she was hanged today" and the other as in past reference as in "she was hung on july 4th"
OMG is that really HAZ??!!
but eacg to their own
And if that aint fractured English, I don't what is.
oh no, what did she do?
It is, Une.
so very nice to have you back haz
Thank you, westford.
haha i just got it west -- clearly i need more coffee
Are there words in here??
i found 14 hego
i found one or 2 hego
Is Lickety Clues gone for good? I can't even bring up the page anymore...

Hi Dorens
Hello, Dorens.
mmm..pig in the ground and keg of beer and all the fixin,s
hi dorens are you back to normal?
If you can survive builders in your home you can survive the course.
the book asks what beautiful need we are seeking to fulfill when we ask our kid to take out the garbage
Luau? Did someone say luau?
Mr. P & Lickety are moving to be closer to Lickety's new job I think. Hope that's still a go.
westford are you inviting us all to your luau? and yes, i am normal. having lost a lot of nice food in the fridge and surviving a bit of a candle fire
(just heard my name on the radio)
hi dorens
alas hego 'tis but a phantom
*passes out grass skirts and bowls of poi*
what? party? i am in!
pini are the feds after you?
beautiful need? nothing beautiful about it.i am seeking an empty container to refill with more garbage

Sounds good, though.
nope *grin*
I won another year, jmc!

lol Westie
*puts a lei on westford*
Hi Judi... think I just might thanks! :)
I've never been to Hawaii but would love to go some day
*tunes up ukelele*
me, too, west
crossy starts dosing watermellons....
where is wht and his coconut bra?
I need clues for the op6 and the oc5, please.
me neither and too
You're not in for a treat... I don't play ukelele.
lol jmc! That must be a sight... for sore eyes.
i think stiddie gave him one for his trip to hawaii
phantom: occult
there is a beatle in the grid today
if you are very patient..you can get a standard watermellon to drink up an entire 40 oz bottle of vodka....mmmmm
op6 is first 4 letters of music show and not out
op6,21 + the last name of the family in Evita.
i think i would rather drink it myself crossy
o + that, I mean.
well,then you get revenge by eating said mellon jmc
ty neil
oh that would make me love watermelon
but it would ruin a perfectly good bottle of vodka
seems like we all want winter to wait
Is anyone pounding the poi?
we are due for snow next week:(
<-- pounding pini coladas...much better than poi! :)
it wasn't pre-pounded?
mmm i do not know if that is good form,pounding ones poi in public....
oc5,14 -- eye related.
agreed Pini
we already had some : (
hand me one pini that is something i am willing to pound
We'll buy it pre pounded. Good idea!
I think someone should be pit roasting a whole pig. Also, where's the damn limbo stick??
yw jmc
pre pounded poi..like pease porridge hot
Ty for O clues.
* pouring glass for jmc and hego *
Crossy has the pig. Of course!
crossy buried the pig
i am cooking a pig in the ground the old fashioned way judi
yeah no class today
I would Judi but A. I'm Jewish... which cancels out the need for the B. excuse: don't have a pit.
Okay. So, we're having a vegan, kosher luau!
let me rephrase that:yeah no school today
No No, I want pig!!!
no no i demand pig!
Snap JMC
OK, pig pit on the left, vegans on the right
you put a face cord of wood in a hole in the ground and fire it till it is all bright coals.then add a layer of rocks,then palm fronds,then pig then more palm fronds then dirt and cook for 12-24 hours
snap hego! haha
neil can have a whole steer for himself
Palm fronds or banana leaves?
24 hours??? i will be really drunk and hungry by then
depends what is handy judi
re 6/21 pls
We'll keep the pig away from Neil, promise.
i am always on your left pini ;-)
kind of like a clam bake on the beach crossy
ROFL
except it is a pig instead of clams yum!
sorry, can't help, jeff

almost fr spelling of the species
oh, ok . . . practically a weed around here! LOL
yes thanks trif and hello
hi trif!
same here, neil
howdy trif:))
I don't think they like my singing. I'd talk to them but they'd drop dead of boredom.
Trif!!
that was Tom's sister's name
I put my student workers in charge of watering my plants at work cuz if I do it, they'll die!
one of my dear daughters submitted her christmas wish list to me last night. total value of gifts requested? $4342.40!!! WHAT planet is this girl on?
rose of Sharon
trif -- long time no see! :-)
i have only one living plant in my house. a christmas cactus. it thrives on neglect!
omg!
Or Rosa sharn
Do you have any at home, Pini?
hi trif! (she's *hopeful*)
sure don't, neil
I'm thinking silk ones might be the way to go... for me. I don't think I could kill those but you never know?
hi pini. she's "delusional"
hi, the po chicken? I can think of pullet
<-- no live plants, plenty of silk (no floral)
lol Neil
hope springs eternal, Trif.
Cacti! Yes dawger... that's my solution.
I've just discovered that I can babble at work. This could be an issue...
nm, got it
don't worry trif Santa will provide lol
lol trif,we are at the point in our kids life where everyone gets on good gift,a stocking full of munchies and we donate to a charity of our choice..we no longer need mounds of stuff
Uh oh
one
Haha, leigh. Is that allowed there?
i have a friend who had lovely silk flowers until her daughter came by and watered them all!
being paid to babble RULES leigh!
I agree crossy. gonna be some grumpy elves around here though.
I could've gotten away with that on my lunch and coffee breaks... but that's it. If caught.
ahh,is there nothign finer than working and babbling?
Well, I don't know that it isn't allowed....There wasn't anything in our handbook about babble..
nudge for the T?
th + 2 vowels
th + 2 vowels. Rhymes with a boy's name.
There wasn't anything in mine either, leigh! :)
that is the beauty of babble,it is never in any large companys handbook
Short form of the name I should add.
can you somehow spin in to be "research into online social group opportunities" or some such, leigh?
we are all in deep do-do when it does start showing up in new employee handbooks
babble is research
Maybe if I sit here and tell you all about how wonderful NOOK is, it'll be okay.
When I worked at a 9-5 office job for a newspaper, I used to vent about my crummy work environment and co-workers who drove me nuts in my blogs... and yes, I did my blogging on my lunch break. Living dangerously? lol
if i tell you about our product for 20 seconds i can write it off as a business luncheon with 5000 people..what a deal for the company
ugh ... I've tried every version of th + 2 vowels to no avail
Ahhh.... retirement..
i own a nook already leigh
third and 4th vowels
Pinikula. I go to work because eye owe.
[actually I'm actively job-hunting right now]

You should get the new NOOK Tablet, Pini! *cue recorded "Ooooooooooh" crowd sound*

With the new NOOK Tablet, you can stream movies on Netflix and Hulu Plus, music from Pandora, Grooveshark and more, browse the web, play games and download other apps, and read books. *cheesy informercial music*
(early)
i will remind you that the i-pad has no flash support,or usb slots,or sd card slots...so cavet emptor

yeah, I'm not hooked on the iPad, but it is the most common known for reference purposes only...I want all the other bells and whistles you mentioned! :)
andf hulu is still verboten in canada..you lucky americans!
NOOK Tablet is just $249 and you can reserve yours today for pickup before Black Friday in a store! It has expandable memory and runs Adobe Flash!
lol,sell it leigh!!
gee, leigh, you're on a roll and it's looking better and better!
who makes it?
sorry about hulu, crossy
and they think you're just babbling
barnes and noble
that's really a good price
Hi all. Is there a list?
Before is a good idea. I usually try to avoid stores on Black Friday... unless I really need to go.
NOOK® is made by Barnes & Noble, and comes with the Barnes & Noble Promise™, over 40,000 booksellers ready to help you in store when you need it.
Yes, sheila... I posted one on Babanon.
there is, try babanon
(It's my job to teach booksellers how to sell it to customers. :) )
and do not count out the first gen models as a cheap alternative to the new ones..i bet leigh can tell you that the first gen model has an amazing redeeming feature that none of the other have.....
<-- gathering leigh works for B&N or another like retailer
Hve to go now. bbl
tc hego
HAGD All
PS: I'm still stuck on that oo word :(
bye hego we'll call you when the roast pig is ready
http://tinyurl.com/ckg7yeq
in the first gen nook the battery pack is consumer replaceable!
add my state and another vowel pini
nm, found it!!!!
NOOK 1st Edition is a great device for a great price. It's got expandable storage and the same access to our great B&N library, plus we have a 3G model so you can download anywhere.
Babble Stats/Clues List: http://tinyurl.com/ckg7yeq
NBT and NBS
stats also in my profile
I work for B&N, Pini.
another 2 words and I'll be 1/2-way!
too bad they don't all have replaceable battery packs
thought so, leigh...*wink*
So impressed with anyone who can compile a list. Many thanks
consumer replaceable that is
lol,leigh you would love to tear my nook down.bought it day one and nove it has 600 books on it,200 pictures,about 300 songs and several dozen work and game files
now, if I go out, look at, and ultimately purchase a Nook, you can tell your boss that you were actually networking in other ways to the benefit of the company! BABBLE ON!!!
Very easy, sheila. Just do the grid, then copy your word list, paste into a notepad or wordpad, then add the commas and take out all but the first 2 letters of each one in the list.
ty for the spell check westie
what?
They don't all have replaceable batteries, but neither do many other competitors. The good news is, there's in-store exchange support. If your battery fails within one year or you have our two-year protection plan, you can go into the store and get a replacement device. No waiting.
But enough about NOOK, because if I really wanted to talk about NOOK I'd be doing work. ;)
she is good...lol
that's a good deal
dont know if it will help, but I found an or4,5
hi sue

Ronnie has a sleep over here every week. He has a pop-up "castle" tent that he sleeps in (on the floor) but it's certainly showing the wear and tear he and my 2 "adopted" grandkids (ages 4 & 2) have given it. And he's almost too big to sleep in it now. Last weekend he was sick so I spent the night sleeping on the floor too
I have it.. thank you neil.. i have three to find
I hope he's better now nef..how's your back?
that's such a good gamma thing to do
and so nice that he sleeps over every week..wish mine would
one down
they live across town (35 miles of heavy traffic each way; it can take up to 80 minutes to get there in rush hour traffic west. My DIL has health problems (mental and physical) so we're planning to move closer to them to help out with Ronnie
that will be good for everyone
Sleeping on the floor wasn't a good plan. If I have to do it again, I'll use an airmatress!
I'm trying to graduate him to sleeping in a bed; but no luck so far; the "castle" is his dream bed for now!
will you wait until Spring to move or are you looking now?
thank you neil wherever you are.
can you put the castle on a bed?
Finish yet ru? Sorry... got sidetracked by a "bother" on IM, haha.
Right here ru.

They said it could mean teams putting all sorts of things on their shirtss? Shouldnt think they have a lot of room with all that advertising!!
good thing they backed down,thy that here and it would be a no go as well
I rep[resent my club in laying a wreath at the local war memorial and do it very proudly
and a poppy is not "advertizing"

:-) That 2 minute rule needs shortening for you, jmc. How are you doing today?
huh? what 2 minute rule?
i am doing okay it was a beautiful fall day and i took a very short walk through the woods
hi everyone
you know how peri always asks for clues and then says "nm, I found it" Molly said we should have a 2 minute rule: Don't give a clue til 2 minutes after someone asks so they can find it on their own
haha by the time i ask i have been looking for a long time!
but that makes some sense as a rule
hi Chriitini
hi chris
ty for the co5, i was heating up left overs the boys arent going to eat anyway
DANG! I put too many i's in your name and then tried to get rid of one and really messed up! Sorry, Christini
more for me, cereal for them
time for them to learn how to use the microwave
;-
DH just brought me supper of left overs too: peas, rice, sweet potatoes, swedish sausage and herring!
;-)
nice nef
i seldom have leftovers which is why i am not skinny
my dtr's b'day was Oct. 13th; there is still a slice or 2 of left over cake in the frig from that!
blech a little old don't you think?
I LIKE left overs so I can get 2-3 meals out of cooking once. Everybody else in this house seems to ignore them and that bugs me
mine too nef, but I dont cook again until the left overs are gone, that is the rule
I'm use to lots of variations on christine and will answer to most of them!
I have no clue, jmc. I'm not that fond of sweets myself (but it was like the top of a wedding cake in size and all boxed up from a fancy bakery; she just had some on Monday for the first time
i am happy to eat leftovers -- my sister brings me hers
well i guess as long as there is no mold. . . .
nice sister, jmc!
that is her helping me through the no kitchen stuff
That's a good idea Christini. I do that too
and she is a great cook
(except for fried okra--mine is much much better)
how far away does she live, jmc?
over the hill about a mile
(my sister that's a good cook is about 1000 miles away in Montana
my brother is the cook and he too lives in montana
well my other two sisters are more than 1000 miles away in Texas
that would be nice to have someone that close in these circumstances. Maybe not in others, but considering the summer you've had....
i am a good cook when i have a kitchen
no i generally enjoy having her near by
you have a brother in MT? What part? (I have 23 sisters and 3 brothers out there
sometimes she gets a little needy but don't we all?
23 sisters?!?!?!?!
so true
missoula, your sister
wow that is a large family
WHOOPS! I meant 3!
whew!
2 sister and 2 brothers are in Missoula; 1 brother and 1 sister are in Helena
Actually, I have a hard time counting family. I have 2 full brothers & 2 full sisters; a half brother and sister, and the cousin I grew up with I also call my sister because I lived with her more than the others
i understand nef--my son has some cousins he call uncle because they were like brothers to my hubby
my DH Aunty has a cousin that is DH's age; her parents were in their 40's when they had her
no these cousins were my hubby's cousins -- but now my son's uncles--go figure
Last summer one of my nephews got married in Missoula and we were planning to go but then DH got sick. I had sort of planned a meet-up with lbd, Jilly and Harp; but then everything fell apart.
too bad nef may you could go this coming summer
i haven't seen harp in forty forevers
yes; we've been talking about it (DH and I) and it's very possible we might do that; it just depends on if we're going to sell this house and move closer to our grandson this next year too
she's on at different times, jmc. Not sure why everyone is changing when they're here these days...
where is the grandson?
glad she is still around--lives change so times change
when i was working and traveling i was on pretty much all the time
school is taking most of my time now
35 miles across town; when DIL has problems it has taken up to 80 minutes to get there some days during rush hour
goodness! then moving does make sense if it is doable
but you just put in the ramps and things there
we are talking about getting a dble. bungalow to be able to help more (and have help if we need it too) My kids grew up in a double bungalow with DH's 2 Auntys on one side and they loved having them there; we all loved the Aunts being that close and we got along fine. But when DH started falling down the stairs; we had to find someplace that would be more handicap accessible
that explains how the aunt ended up with you at the end
the ramp is something that can be taken down and moved. It's heavy 2X4s; but it's in the garage and not permanently secured to the cement
then if you can find a dble bungalow (i am guessing that translates to a semidetached or a duplex) . . . .
yes; DH was raised by his grandmother, his mom (who was in a wheelchair from when he was 6 yrs old and these 2 Aunts
you have had a very close family i can see. . . that is nice
hi all
okay i am taking a break from babble with 32 left bbl
hi and bye jes
it's a duplex all on one level. Our old place was too small and we'd remodeled the basement into a master suite
hi jes
by jmc! have a good evening
how are you tonight, jes?
not too shabby. slow day at work, so instead of making money, i spent a bunch of time paying bills. heh.
I paid bills today too. Not exactly fun; but it is nice to have done it for the month
paying bills for work is...daunting.
and expensive too I bet! Do you have a bookkeeper?
hi again, all!
hi sue! How are you tonight?
I am good, nef.
sort of. we have an outside accountant for taxes and stuff. and a part time bookkeeper to do payroll and bills and stuff, but i do what i can when i have time.
if nothing else, it's good for knowing how much i'm spending on what.
I only paid a half dozen bills today, but spent over $10,000
<--- glad her bills aren't quite that big
so true, jes. My sister (the vet) has a bookkeeper; but several years ago the one she had was stealing from her and gambled thousands of $$$ away. So now my sister takes a day twice a month or so and goes over the bills and money herself.
WOW! New machines or remodelling?
Eesh. yeah, i'm not worried about that happening, my bookkeeper is my mom
no, that's mortgage, laboratory send-out fees, dog & cat food, new tabs for the truck, laboratory supplies (CBC machine reagents, analyzer rotors), and anesthetic drugs.
most of which is monthly/every other month recurring.
the bills for the new surgery table and new dental machine were last month, but just those two things themselves ran over $10,000, on top of the rest of the monthly expenses.
YIKES!
and people wonder why medical bills are high.
We once spoke about how my sister gets some of her equipment from hospitals (when they update their stuff; they often have stuff in a warehouse) Have you had any luck with that? What would a dental machine look like anyway?
dinner time, bbl
I have gotten quite a bit of stuff from the local hospital, actually. but the surgery table we use is different; it has a split surface that V's up so the animal lays in the trough, to prevent rolling or flopping over during surgery.
the dental stuff wouldn't be anything the hospital would have either. looks fairly similar to the drills and polishers they use on humans, but some special stuff for long/narrow heads like rabbits and rodents.
That sounds cool! I know my sister doesn't have that!
*thinking a trough table would be handy for working on little kids, too...*
***CHOCLITS!***
Wait! I have to think: dental appointments for rabbits and rodents? Whoa!
hi stid! Love your picture!
went to GF Joe's today (gluten free store in Tumwater) and bought some GF/Vegan choclit bars from Theo Chocolates (Seattle).
rabbits have a really high incidence of dental issues, mostly because people don't feed them correctly.
Feed the critters choclits and don't worry about the dental bills? *wicked mama look*
no, you'll just end up with bills for emergency vomiting and diarrhea instead :P
*nibbling daintily on fingernails to avoid temptation*
icky. *keeps choclits for self*
re 6?
okay. I have a nurse friend who had a pet rabbit. She was fussy about it's diet; but the darn thing would also eat away on her sheetrock!
re + black solid fuel for locomotives
yeah, they'll do that. the problem is that people feed them pellets and seeds and soft veggies, and they need grass and hay and leafy greens--high fiber stuff--to grind their teeth down.
tyvm stid
re + 4 letter word in grid for making heat or electricity
there were train tracks in Virginia that still had that solid fuel lying around, we used to pick up some and bring it home for the fireplace sometimes (never enough to overheat the cast iron "Franklin" stove)
the soft stuff (and yes, carrots are considered soft!) is crushed instead of ground, and doesn't wear the teeth down right, plus puts a lot of pressure out the roots.
well, it's getting dark -- I was napping until the excedrin took over, just a headache today not a migraine. Want to get supper started, and organize a few things tonight. I think there's a sofa somewhere in the living room.
have fun with supper, stid, and don't eat all the chocolate today, save some for tomorrow :)
interesting,jes. I never understood why she was so fussy about the rabbit diet before
when we had bunnies we gave them pellets, and hay, and blackberry leaves (they loved those) and carrot tops.
yeah, the carrot tops are lots better for them than the carrots themselves :)
good advice, Dr. Jes! :-D Have a lovely evening, all -- will be back later to finish the grid maybe, it's nice and small for a change. *poof*
stid, take care of yourself. quit with the headaches, you hear?!!
yes ma'am, Nef ma'am *repoof*
niters, stid. :-)
21 words left and my son just called to ask me to go pick up the grandson in a bit. I don't think I'll get this grid done; but so far I haven't had a list (maybe that might help)

Is anybody else having problems with facebook today
I have not been on since about 5 am
I am able to log on, but then I can't access my wall or homepage. When I try to look for friends I am unable to access their wall either. It worked fine yesterday.
I was just on there and did not have any problems.
seems to be ok for me, min
boatierra, did you use Chrome or Internet Explorer?
I think computer has a virus and that might effect it.
IE
Yeah, FaceBook does not work on either one for me.
I keep getting a debugging pop up on my screen. It's so annoying! Does anybody knows what debugging is?
I know what debugging is, and you don't want to do it, min
do you have virus software on your computer (virus-detection, I mean)
is anyone getting ads where the words used to be in babble expert?
Yes, I think Babble Expert's page is expired.
oh OK, thank you. I didn't know if something was wrong with the version I have.
hello peeps
how is evvyon
waah
hi lil!
oc5 any clues?
hi, lbd, monkey, nonnie, majmom!
has to do with the eyes, majmom.
hi UU
and it's a Latin plural (the oc5 is)
thanx got it
Hi ldb, uusue, and majmom
any results yet UU?
no, I have an appointment with the doctor next Tuesday, ruru
Ya I'm not getting that oc 5. That one stumped me yesterday as well.
oc + Christmas is sometimes called Y**e + not me
Ah! Thanks, I was trying the wrong kind of plural ending.
hi all
yw :-)
hi, jen!
well now, I am exactly half way!
still don't have any words from the a or the o in the 4th column, though
ab5, a + davey crocket and danial b***e were mountain men

hi Jen, hi boat, and anyone i've missed.

what happened to Lickey list?
It says domain is expired
ah, mrp is moving; maybe she doesn't know how to renew it (or that it expired)
I think "boopie" should be a word
it's a paid site
hi all
So we have to pay to get Lickety list now?
oh wait, sorry , usue I didn't see your first answer about mr p
no, mrp or lickety will have to pay to renew the web site to get the list back up
OK got it
no, lil, it means that someone needs to pay to register the domain and keep the site up, not that you ahve to pay mrp to ...n'mind, sue beat me to it
thanks anyway jesd :)
so lickety was providing it to us for free, but it was costing him money
So what is going on?
a lot, monkey, mrp has some info in her profile
Mr Pres Profile is blank. Please respect her and her family and contact her on FB> I don't mean this as a bitchy rant either. I mean this as a mumma bear protecting her cub.
ah, I didn't know she'd blanked it out, herin, thanks
It kinda sucks for us not to have the clues, but i think they've got enough going on that I can't really begrudge them the money to renew a domain for a game, you know?
She has. busy time at the moment for them and it is best not to gossip here
you are absolutely right, herin. wish I could be there to help them out...
monkey!!!
hey herin!
Ya, I'm thinking both mrp and lickety have way more important things on their minds than maintaining this most generous gaming site for us.
There's no gossip going on here, I merely asked what's going on with the websit expiring
hi, littlebit!
well lickety doesn't get paid for his help like dr. g gets paid for babble
hey uusue!!
Monkey we have no free domains here :( So if the page has expired then it is because it wasn't maintained with $$$ and they are very very busy.
Sorry I am just a wee bit protective of Mr Pres
* I meant Babble Expert, not Babble itself.
I knew what you meant Boat
do you live anywhere near her, herin? (I know Australia is about as big as the US, so chances are small; was just curious - would be nice if some babblers were near her to give her a hug from all of us now and then)
Oh I was just saying it in general. I realized my previous statement didn't specify which site.
I live one state over. You can reach her on FB.
Monkey BUTT I sent you a FB message
oh, I do talk to her on FB, herin, was just curious. Trying to get my mental itinerary together in case I ever visit Oz :-)
Sue. Aus is pretty dang big. To visit a friend she is 4 hours away. Even I cant get my head around distance
howdy...can anyone tell me why in the refresh clues box..there is something other than the clues?? something about go daddy .com logo??
we were just talking about that, shoo, clues will not be available until further notice
because the domain registration expired, and mrp & lickety have too much going on to renew the domain right now, shoo
ahhhhh thank-you. thought I did something wrong. LOL
no list available thru lickety, shoo
no4, it's not you
MONkEY you here?
ah well, herin, if it's only 4 hours you must be on the same side at least :-)
(I did a round trip to see my stepmother last spring, 7 hours each way, left Friday night and was home Saturday night)
booo hooooo. I need those clues.
there's a list in minveryork's profile
okay lbd...how do i access this profile??? you know me.
shoo, do you want me to send the list to your email?
right above the chat log there's a link to rankings. go there and search for minveryork
here ya go shoo: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini .php?id=22556

Hello lbdawger! How are you? Been in and out of here.
Thanks Ibdawger :)
is it possible to make the 100 cal microwave popcorn without burning it? I always burn them
good thing i like burned popcorn
me too, Min. i'm doing well. and yourself?
try using less time or lower heat setting, sue
In the Microwave?
you have to be really fast to pull it out, sue, and put up with a bunch of unpopped kernels
hey herin--could you drop me an email right quick? draggonlaady at gmail
Yep Jess
<--doesn't care for popcorn
I am tired. Debating on whether or not to do a story.
What you do is if the packet says 1 in on 1000 watt put it on 1 min and listen to the sound of lots of popping.When the popping starts to slow down stop the microwave and shake the bag. If you want continue popping the corn but guarenteed you will have just a few in the bag
<--- has a 50-lb bag of popcorn in her kitchen
that is insane uu
it's one of the few snacks Frank can eat, and it was a lot cheaper that way :-)
i love popcorn
no butter or salt, just popcorn

still pretty cool though :-)
I know, but I have friends with decent telescopes. :-D
our telescopes are only 3 inch ones
Have to duck offline for an hour or so. Need to reset the modem and blah blah get a life for 2 hours. you know the borring things

don't hold your breath, crossy
crosshair, it already passed by, we all clear :)
lol stidmama
but if there's one on the way I will let you know :-)

crossy loves amber fossils

Hmmm, probably talking to myself as usual
Hi.
I think everyone else vamooshed and I wasn't here 'til now... just left myself logged in. Was busy hosting a live stream of the GOP debate on site with live chat. Dad took part. Funniest thing I noticed him saying in the chat box: "smoke a dubai"
Hi Neil. Is MSN acting funny on you too?
Laura? Ummm, I'm messaging you on there and you're not answering?
Try rebooting.
Think I'll do that too... computer could probably use it after all that activity this evening.
Back after.
You look offline to me.
Ok.
