heyas. I am maybe, just the teeniest bit tipsy off me arse right now, so do forgive any typos...
don't forget the rh4
ty grannie - it's welsh word, i shouldn;t miss it but i often do
LOL Trif, good on ya xx
I never drink on New Years
my resolution is to drink every other day of the year
well done, ruru. I hardly drink at alll, so this is different for me
i shuld make a resiolution not to drink at all but i know i'd break it
enjoy Trif
LOL Ru, like my mum only plays golf on days ending with Y
It's really wild here on Kauai. Drinking in the streets, fireworks all over the place. Not used to this
i think i am most regretting the big big cup of coffee I drank at 11:30. what was I thinking?
I'm actually a light drinker..
once it gets light.. i start drinking
just kidding
i am an all or nothing girl LOL - if the bottle's open, i'll finish it...
oh, bichon! I am so jealous! I LOVE kauai!
is kauai in hawaii?
It's paradise. Tomorrow's our last full day
Yes Glant. It's the westernmost real island
always wanted to go but way too expensive form here
so have you had NY yet Bichon or are you one of the last to welcome it in?
It's way too expensive for us on the East Coast. But, son an family were going and they invited us.
No, it's not even 9 PM yet here
I am just about to eat my first breakfast of 2012 here LOL
I have a weird feeling Iam not going to make to chruch tomorrow. oh hdear
get the vitamin C ready Trif....
well .. tri.. it IS a new year
and drink a large glass of water before you go to bed if you remember
thinking my plan to be a femme fatale this year is off to a shaky start.
hangover preventative== 2 aspirin + a b complex or lacking that any b vitamin you have witha full glass of water
sure that isn't femme natale?
do you have the femme fatale outfit LOL
seven veils and all that?

ty sammysmom
welcome
hi all -- late flip!
oh please please say this is the scabs coming off
hi jilli Happy new year to you
hi jilli
??? hurshy
what, hurshy???
Hi Jilli
increase in pain
had my tonsils out tuesday
sorry to hear you have pain hurshy - what happened?
ouch
ouch
hurshy, be rvery, very careful! Things can get very tricky when they do, and this is when things can get nasty. I knocked my scabs off too ssoon, and all oose .roke loose.
ouch at your age, hursh!!! Lots of ice cream...
wasn't expecting this for another few days but would be glad to get better faster... on the other hand if it is not getting better faster...
hell broke loose, sorry
what do i do to be careful trif???
i didn't knock them off on purpose - assuming they are coming off - i don't know what i could have done
HNY to you too, dear ruru
dont eat toast, for one thing. basically, don't do anything to hurry along the process, if they are coming off , let them do so in their own time
i not eat toast
stay away from taffy too hursh
and no aspirin or aspirin products either
you should be fine then
my stars i wouldn't be able to touch taffy with a ten foot pole
i know no aspirin
if you can bayer it hursh
haha
i have tylenol with codeine.
I feel funny. I think this is why I rarely drink. so much for cutting loose. I think maybe I have made a terrible mistake...
s not stopping ruru
but it suddenly got owier.
I still say ice cream, hursh
<---would reach for something much stronger
i'm not hungry at the moment, just sticking with water and ginger ale for the nonce
any clues ofr any 7s? I only hve the he7/32
trif.. it won't kill you to have a little fun once in a while.. just don't overdo it
he7/32
think that horse has already sailed, ruru....
co7
oh sorry, didn't read far enough!
co 7 X 2 actually
ty ru
wow sailing horses cool
pink elephants too!
ah pink elephants.. takes my back to my old ddruggie days
I think I have just entered mine, ruru
We already killed a bottle of champagne and a wee drop of Black Bush and I don't think I'll be awake for midnight
oh geez trif.. you crack me up
I am gonna jo lie down, I think. that or barf. can't decide yet. is laying down bad?
how much did you drink?
put your scotch or rye down, and lie down (Noel coward)
watch some tv.. drink some water and eat a little something... take some aspirin before you go to bed..
laying down is distinctly bad garammar
*grammar
ummm. a gin and tonic before dinner, 3 glasses of wine with dinner, a half a glass of champagne at midnight, and something called an oreo shot at one point, tho I domt finish that
unless you are a hooker jilli...
didn't
sorry jilibus.
oh boy trif.. mixing is a killer
no, ruru.
laying down that is..lol
so that 's was the wrong thing to do? It was a really weak g and t
even hookers lie down
7's so far - co x 3, he, re, sc x 2, so
I think I'd have skipped the hard alcohol and the bubbly
although they may be a good lay for someone
de 7 anike
when their backs aren't to the wall jilli
gosh. better take my sodden sorry arse to bed. love to all my dear ones.
ruru's just a wino
to7
I wouldn't lie down yet trif.. not a good idea
whisky on beer, never fear -- beer on whisky, very risky
I didn't have any beer
good for flosey, still looking for words
here's for moderation then trif...lol
okay ruru. i feel okay cognitive wise, just weird stomach wise. I did eat a lot of rich food at this 'do
I hope you feel better then
as for me, I'm off to say hi again to my son, now that's he's off the iPhone
toodles, all...*poof and Happy 2012
bye jilli.. I'm going to bed early so.. I'll see you another day
thanks. I am sure I am fine. it was over a five hour period. I think I am just a total lightweight
mixing is what did it tri..
what um, happened to you when all hell broke loose with your tonsils trif?
artery ruptured, and luckily one of my students at the time was visiting me, and could drive. he had to BOOK to get me to the docs in time, and plugging up the hole was a NIGHTMARE
whoa that is bad
*scared*
this was in 2001, so my youngest was 2 at the time. if you think it is easy to explain to your little children why mummy has blood spurting out of her mouth, you are wrong.
well you know i just have cats but
this was because you ate toast?
well, that and because I was an idiot, and the scabls were grossing me out, so I sort of forced the toast to do a bit of exfoliating....really, really stupid. also, I have red hair, and I did not know at that time that redheads have a tendency to bleed like stink. live and learn!
i have red hair but i have never had a tendency to bleed but i haven't done any forcing i swear
geesh, I am probably going WAY down in everyone's estimation tonight, eh?
Happy New Year!
then I am sure you will be fine, hurshy dear. it is a painful surgery, but you will heal, I promise
happy new year magmom

bleeding heck - the temp is going up again
oh, really, lyn, and what massive power of deduction did you use? me, i just stuck my head out of the door, and high-tailed it back into the air-con
http://www.baywx.com/melbtemp.html.... .my bible on hot days
air cond ! you're rich
lolol, hubbies too, i just look outside, something the BOM peeps need to do every now and again.
did you see the temp for tomorrow
well, it is in mother macs rooms, and they open directly onto the study, where i am....so i open her door and let all that lovely co4 air flow on through.
not too bad here, twas a bit hot this arvo but have a cool breeze at the mo. Friend in SA had 41 about 11am this morn
* shudder* no, but i'm sure himself will let me know..but you can get in first, if you like..
hi Diz - yeah, we seem to get Adelaide weather the next day - so 40 tomorrow
aaacccckkkk, that means we get it tomorrow, gee, thanx, diz
snap Rose
lol, lyn, see you in the water, that is if the bacteria count is down enough to allow us to swim
the Elwood Canal is a couple of houses away and is tidal - looked a bit dodgy this morning
LOL your both welcome.....I recall 9 yrs ago we had a pretty miserable Dec/Jan and then Feb hotted up really bad with bushfires etc.....only recall cos my g/son was born early Feb and they weren't letting new mums and bubs out hosp cos of the heat
lyn, there is a web site, but over the chrissy break, no-one updated it, consequently a lot of peeps went swimming (including kids) when they shouldn't have.
I think I heard the warning on 774 - not that I would be frolicking about in bathers anyway!
remember the days when we played with the garden hose????? so much fun, and safe from all ways of looking at it
That would be allowed again now I think...I used to love it as a kid
WHAT!!! lynx doesn't wear bathers...LOL sorry couldn't help myself
(thinking of sprinklers)
well, we are allowed to water lawns, so perhaps so...hmmm, do you think the neighbours are ready for the sight of moi, in bathers, sitting under the sprinkler, on the front lawn......hey, we could sell tickets!!!!
can't remember when I did last Grannie - besides although v. near the beach I hate sun, sand and salt water
granny - why not, got to amuse the neighbours....lol
rofl, diz
Go for it, grannyrose!!!
hi Peach
Hi there, lynxxx. Happy New Year!
Let's all hope it is a good one!
oh reminds me, himself was up, with the high-pressure hose clearing the gutters...saw a heap of leaves on the porch roof( he thought), squirted them, and hey presto, one very angry, wet possum went flying across the porch and up our decorative pear tr4
BBL halfway and Ken has done dinner so...
late, late flip; hi all! Happy new year!
I bet that was a cute sight, granny/
hey dee, and HNY to you, dear friend

Well, my peeps, I have 87 left and I'm going to round up the little ones (dogs) and hope I can get to sleep. HAPPY NEW YEAR, y'all.

yay, rose
the baby piglet?
hang on and I'll put a list in my profile
WTG DEE!!!!
my missing word was a dialect word for shovel
yay, that WAS it, haha!
how about you, g'rose, was that your word, too? or are you looking for another s5?
fireworks
yay, Dee and anike!
Been preparing BBQ for last 30 mins so held me up
yup, dee, stilll floundering * :( *
list in my profile
still trying to find the 2nd V, myself, haha! have vo4
I must go - family awaiting. Happy New Year everyone
ta anike!
to you, too, anike, enjoy the BBQ! :)
vo 5/18 rb looks like noise from our throats minus a vowel
ty, got it! (think I had tried it singular)
80 left, 28 of which are C's, yuck!
I did, too
Dee, where was the method for making the list in Excel, was wanting to suss it out - is it in someone's profile? I know I read through it once, but didn't save it
hold on I have it saved...
I used to be an excel whiz once upon a time
me, too, but had never used this formula before: Instructions from ARB for putting babble grid results into profile: • Copy word list into an Excel spreadsheet (the word, the number of letters and the points go into 5 columns (because of ? for dictionary). • Then insert a column after the word. • Then write a formula in the first line after the word, example - " =left($B1,2)" (the $ makes the formula absolute) • Then copy the formula all the way down (put cursor in bottom right of the top cell with the formula and drag down to end of word list). • Voila you have 3 columns with first 2 letters, length, points
set up record-keeping for the quality control labe I used to work in
*lab
rose, did you find your missing word?
thanks, got it in my babblenotes now, the only doc I keep on my desktop for easy access. :)
I had to do it a few times... kept missing a step. After using it a few times, it's not hard.
full of helpful stuff like babblet lists, recipes, babbler's birthdays, etc...
you sound like me rb
I always have to make my excluded letter list for morewords first thing, that goes at the top so I can thin out the lists in morewords
it's a big help, for sure.
hello all - happy new year - have been lurking and picking up lists and clues and got to 36 left - husband is roasting lamb for lunch - smelling good

so um, ow, and who has interesting resolutions? maybe i can copy one.
not to make any resolutions I can't keep - doesn't leave much ;)
i don't usually make any
i haven't any ideas
I am resolving to go to madagascar in 2012
ooh wow what for
top on my bucket list
ok but why is it top on your list, what is it that you particularly like about madagascar
the flora, fauna and culture, so unique
i could resolve to watch the movie madagascar
Hi all. Une, sorry I missed you the other day. Hope you had a wonderful birthday.
I did :-) now I know all about foosas and sifakas!
i also resolve no elective surgeries.
I am not making any this year - 2012 needs to give me a sign that the its going be better than 2011 before I invest any time in it
i think that will apply forever and ever, world without end amen.
good plan kazzer
but you haven't any choice, your time is currently in 2012.
what are you gonna do, pull it out and put it in 2015 for better interest rates?
I resolve to be a better Stuart of Gods gifts
nope just let things cruise by doing their own thing.
right now I suck
so, um how will you become a better steward, sue?
I spelt that wrong, didnt I...
I don't have any feelings for this year - I might lose my mum this year - her health is deteriorating quite rapidly and now with Dad gone she hasn't got much to hang around for
it's possible
I want to not shop as much and save more
save not shop, good one
so sorry to hear that kazz
I wish you strength and love to cope with 2012 Kazzer
yeah - the diabetic tables have bu**ered her kidneys and now they think that there might be some liver damage as well
me too kazz
I am looking forward to one or two things though - I am taking my son out for his birthday in a fortnight and we are going to a beautiful restaurant which does exquisite food
hi all.. ( hugs and prayers for kazz)...
I watched the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" last night
thanks for all your good wishes. I am off to do some lunch
what a beautiful movie about life and death and what a wonder it is
that is a great movie
much better than the original story in my opinion
hey, molly -- re bday, no prob :-) Actually I celebrated with a root canal -- blessed relief from pain!! LOL
i felt like he had the germ of the idea but didn't go anywhere much with it and the movie really made something out of it.
high five for procedure people!
Wow Une, you really know how to party down on your birthday. : )
I saw that film a while ago and I really enjoyed it
Pokes bleary head above parapet.....Happy New Year all :-)
one of my grandmothers is in the same place as your mom, sounds like, kaz. and the other one had a small stroke on thursday. :(
soodle, mmm. that reminds me of noodle.
*Waves at bleary Soodle*
Feebly waggling fingers at Molls
I see the kids went out and Mama had her own party at home. : )
Nope... mama went out and partied with the best of them......

and scoodle
learning how to type again for the ny soodle
Been called a lot of things in my life.. Scoodle is a new one!! LOL
I am for sure lo4 this am
can i have a clue for the 8 pls
does it build ?
does anyone know - i mean actually know - why it is that a computer can have a clock working properly but when it has to think about how long something will take or how much battery life it has left, it can't keep any remotely accurate track of time at all?
it builds up :)
your cpu might be dieing
clock for time is different then the math coprosser
no, all computers are always like that, haven't you noticed?
the lithium battery is time
the processor is the adding
they say "2 hours to install" and then it actually takes 20 mins or whatever, and sometimes the amount of time it thinks goes back up, and then back down.
told you spelling is not working today
oh, that time
it is because the speed on the lines change according to what else you are doing
it is called bus speed
picture it as if it is the Highway
the more traffic the slower you move, but on the gps it used the speed limit not the actual speed at the time
and download speed is the same
more traffic, more time
was that too much info?
ok but like one website where i upload videos for work ALWAYS starts by saying it will take days, then rapidly moves down through the hours... why can't it realize that it's NEVER right at first and just wait until it knows it has a slightly more accurate idea.
is it just being like scotty?
yes, it works from modem speed and then makes you feel better that you have a much faster connection
does this mean you understand my scotty reference?
also, uploading is like gravity, your uploads are much slower then your downloads
yes it is very logical
oh wait that was spock
nope, dont get it
or "she canny take it Captain " or something like that
kirk: "scotty, do you always multiply your repair estimates by a factor of four?"
yes, it is a scotty, you can give it gas
aha
scotty: "aye, captain, how else would i keep my reputation as a miracle worker"
well, i was on the right show
a little more help with the 8pls and then off to church I go
oh well the reason i asked is cause i was watching the battery time i have left decrease, and as i don't feel like moving, i guess ttfn. it builds up in your chimney sue.
battery life is like the gas in your car, the more you demand from it, different apps and network connections, the more you use and the faster it goes.
what does ttfn stand for
ty
off to church
bbl
What is wrong with the Lickety's babble clues? Does anybody have the real clues?
yesterday's clues with today's date, Kenny. VolleeMom has list in her profile. bless her heart!
nbt, over 3/4's thru, time for a break. bbl to finish

hi, scrabs!
My on-call day/night began 90 minutes ago. I had one call--mother wanted me to change her kid's antibiotic that he just started 3 days ago.
Hi all. Just popped in to say Happy New Year and that today's stats are in my profile and on BabAnon, if needed.
oops - wireless is definitely flaky here...

Hi swinbo
Hi swmbo
smbo I haven't seen you in forever!
Nice to see you all. I Babble every day in bits and piebces, but rarely chat. Maybe that should be a New year's resolutiuon for me? Chat every day?
Yes, make a daily appearance.
I will try :)
Even if its only to say hello :o)
Happy New Year everyone!
good morning everyone:)

howdy norma
Hi Sea and Crossy.
ty monkey...I stitched that
howdy scwabby
Lovely...
well it's beautiful seaspray! I mistakenly thought it was a plate, but now I see it isn't
It's called Gift of Peace...hard to see but he is holding a dove in the basket
I see it now, Sea--beautiful!
ty all...probably did that 20 years or so ago and is my favorite piece
sorry...didn't mean to kill the chog!
You didn't. I am searching for words. I want to pass halfway before I have breakfast and I am hungry. I need to find 20.
i am still here seaspray,just buried in the grid
ok...back to the grid for me also and 3 year old at my side...she is watching The Land Before Time
I just noted that th5 are 60 C words!
I have the same method, do half before taking a brea`k
ack I do not like C words!!!
Id rather have C words than vowel words!
crossy hates c words:(
In Scrabble the letters I dislike the most are C and V.
me too scrabbs
my most dislikest are the i words
I dislike the ìn`words
morning, all, andf Happy 2012
Hi Angel
for you C haters, did you find the stalk of C ?
I did...I did!
TY, monkey.
I did now, ty lil monkey
now have 1/2 of the c words, Yay!
ty lilM
but only have 28 C's
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2012!! G'morning, folks
C haters did you find the New Orleans type of cooking?
Yes
ok
Welki! Going ice fishing later?
Cr6 Lady Marmalaaaaaaaaaaaaaade!!!!
not this weekend, scrabs - needed a quiet weekend at home, my house is showing the effects of me being out of commission for those few weeks
My house is a disaster too.
(ice is still kind of dicey anyway - we need some colder weather)
I'm going to go start the Crock Pot, pot roast, taters & carrots for my New Year's day dinner :)
sounds like a plan, monkey - wish i'd had the foresight to plan a one pot meal :)
I went to the grocery store late last night, welki
then i feel a little better *lol*
lol, it was a last-minute "plan"
help with the e under the s pls
that leftmost c is a PITA have 30 c,s but only one from that one so far
I have 6 from th*** crossy
do you have Morse co4 ? and plural and the person who does it?
144/95 and I must get breakfast.
and plural the person who does it
that is from the other c monkey
crossy the animal that lives in a swamp
how about Daniel Boone wore a co4skin cap?
Hi everyone, has anyone done the maid of the mist experience at niagara falls?
need the e under the s pls. anyone?
i did years ago
no but I want too Katie
owwwwwww
well worth it,and be prepared to get very wet
and the o under the d pls
Never, and I live less than an hour away, Kitt. Are you coming he4?
Hurshy, feeling ANY better?
i was doing really well all afternoon yesterday
then around midnight suddenly boom, agony
do you think it can already be the scars coming off??? it's only day 5
Today should be the last bad day, H. Kids usually have about 5 bad days then start to improve. Then th5 are the kids that eat mac & cheese within several hrs of surgery.
but i'm not a kid i'm 34
ahh a co 6/24 and a 7/36 come from that c!
indeed crossy!
That granulation tissue is fragile. Did you look at your throat in the mirror? Gross yellow-white slime where the tonsils used to be.
yes gross from what i can see from how much i can open my mouth
poor hurshy:(
i heard the worst pain is when the scabs come off
which i heard in adults was usu between day 7 and 11
yes we are coming in June - it looks really cheap which confused me lol.
See, if you had wrist surgery you could ignore your wrist for a wk or 2 and not use it. But your throat must be used for breathing, swallowing, sneezing, coughing...
Oh, Kitt, tell me exactly when and I can meet you if I have time.
i have been doing pretty well about not coughing and i have not sneezed.
The scabs aren't like other scabs, because the tissue stays moist. When healing is complete underneath the tissue just sloughs off.
that makes sense
BRB, must grab yogurt.
do you hack up the scab or swallow it?
sorry everyone this is gross
That would be great scrabbler, we are only in Niagara for one night and then on to Lake erie for a night before going to Parkersburg but would be great if we could link up.
more than 1/2 and 43 of the c'sfound. a good morning so far. bbl
i didn't do the mist thing but i went to the fall at christmastime one year it was a vast ice land. treacherous but so so pretty.
Niagara Falls is co4 to see in the winter.
Happy New Year All!
Where on Lake Erie, Kitt?
Hi Hego
i do so hope you are right that this is the last bad day
No idea yet scrabbler, we have booked the flights, the car hire the hotels in New York and Nashville but that is as far as we have got :) we were just going to drive down and grab a motel
but will try not to get hopes up
i did maid of the mist - fun
Still hurting Hurshy?
H, you are healing everyday. Someday this will be a distant nightmare.
OK, Kitt. When you have details, let me know.
The falls are quite a different experience in winter. The ice formations are beautiful. Do do the Maid of the Mist so you can get closer to the falls. Walk through the tunnelsso you can get a different view. Make sure to see the lights on the falls at night. Drive up along the river above the falls to get some other unique views
At least you can talk to us on Babble without pain. : )
Love Maids of the Mist.
Walk on to Goat Island to get close.
Look, Scrabs, 2 s's. lol
well i can talk to you without EXTRA pain
it amazed me that the falls are controlled and you do not see their full power
Right
i am worried bc my husband asked for zinc and may be coming down with something. if he infects me will that be very very bad?
Yep, today you are not hallucinating, Hego.
fantastic we will definitely do that then. i'm looking at the grand ole opry now and the general jackson riverboat in Nashville - this is not going to be a cheap vacation!
bluebird cafe for good music as well katie
If you start sneezing and coughing that could be bad. So you might need zinc and Echinacea too.
of course my immune system started out stronger to begin with, cause i keep mine up.
with like exercise and all that
Kitt, it will be full of great experiences and memories. Last June I spent a lot of money on a trip to the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Red Canyon and Zion National Park---an incredible experience!!
hello ev1 hapy new year to those I havent wished it yet, are there two ce4/5 at the end of the ce's
they do say people are happier when they spend money on experiences rather than things.
And everyone up north should be taking vitamin D all winter. Huge immune booster. www.vitamindcouncil.org.
ty and hny vanilla
oh i am on vit D all year i had 7 when they tested my blood so that was low.
i am going to try sublingual vit b, i suspect i do not absord from food
v?
And our trip was with 2 guides, as part of a touring company, which was WELL worth it. No worries about lodging, food, car rental, driving, etc.
vo4/7 and 5/18
Hi vanilla and owl
Hurshy, you want to be at least 50-70.
sounds great. i have heard there are groups that match up single travelers
Owl, I take B12 sublingually.
well it's higher now!
ty

Hi Kap
Hi. what did you say?
Sorry, TO but I hear there may be champagne left in there.

welki, I am watching a show on fishing in Alaska.
halfway! bbl
Bye Harry
some great streams up there -- but there's wonderful fishing in your area, too!!
whew the c's are done!!!!
alaska fishing in remote areas is very very dangerous if you're not properly trained
Hi Welki, all better?
Lakes Erie & Ontario have become fishing meccas.
how many words please
i guess fishing in any remote area has its risks -- cancel previous post :)
239
<-- would love to retire on to one of the great lakes
i have a friend who lives in alaska
welki, dangerous because of bears and the remoteness?
and all of them c's!
she's much cooler than me
fishing for arctic char in one of those labrador floating lodges= heaven!
yes, scrabs -- particularly in spring when the bears wake up, but also because of other predators and lack of phone reception in emerg situations
relet
oops, jt!
oops
i want to see some NFL team play the lions, then the bengals, then the bears, three weeks in a row, just so i can say...
Bingo, jt. But I already have it.
i'll bet that, right now, she's about 60 degrees cooler than you, hursh
Lions, Tigers and Bears, oh my!
lol hursh...we get the pleasure of the tigers today!
sounds like football.
and it will be a battle
I could go mountain biking today. It is more like spring or fall than winter.
here, it's about 10F - going to be a beautiful day
Lone E on right = et5--anesthetic gas.
we got 50.
gas very popular here.

good thing you're not an atheist with alzheimer's then
Grand ole opry booked - 4th row, very excited :)
well one out of two i guess :)
MERRY NEW YEAR!
You go, Kitt. Get your trip all planned.
wow katie, you'll be all over the place .. tennessee, new york ... going to be one great holiday!
Hi Car
seriously katie, blue bird cafe
same to you, car! were you celebrating with trif?
Oh Katie! So Jealous! That is a dream of mine!
hi car, hny to you, too
we have a free night when we are there and are staying downtown we will make sure we visit it TO
No, I was home last night with my babies!
music row, a whole block of little cafes
are you going to memphis as well?
whoops...power done for the next 10 mins...brb!
I was asleep at 11.
I still can't believe we are doing it all, I've never been to the US so thought we would try and do it all lol
I was asleep by 10.
how many days will you be in the states, katie?
well i was on a filing and cleaning tear. but i broke a framed pic i had had for thirty years
Babblers are exciting people.
Oh we are stopping at the best western on music row so it will be just round down the road
In our way.
i was engaged in the terror my brain is affectionately terming "sleep" these days at midnight, but then awake again half an hour later
I am a real party animal.
Why is sleep a terror these days?
ok katie, this is a huge country compared to gb.
my friends from uk are always amazed at how HUGE the u.s.a. is, that you can't drive from one end to the other in just a few hours
Hurshy, music, books, internet are your friends now.
withdrawal from clonazepam :(
yes i ended up watching friends for awhile
The USA is a bunch of disparate territories that would be at war all the time if someone hadn't had the idea of uniting the states
lol when i hear of you going to spain or greece for vacation, or france, i am enviou of your proximity
No we are there for 16 days with 3 in NY, 3 in Nashville, 1 in Niagara, 1/2 in Lake Erie and lots and lots of driving. we are spending about a week with hubby's relatives as well
My friends in Europe had no idea.
are you driving those destinations? they are long drives
i have to say it seems really irresponsible that i have been on this medicine for years and no doctor ever mentioned that it was clearly only working as a placebo after about 9 weeks...
I don't want to stop ambien because it is my insurance
ambien made me throw up
I wouldn't be surprised if the US has another civil war.
Massachusetts would be at war with New Hampshire all the time.
we are used to driving a lot just because of the type of people we are. I would think nothing of driving for a hour to meet someone for a coffee, however I know plenty of people who think 15 miles is a long way.
i think we are now. only no real bloodshed, although plenty of casualties
The doc WANTED to continue the placebo effect, but it wasn't benign because you were not on a sugar pill.
ny to Nashville. About 1000 miles.
that's too bad. (about the ambien).
well why didn't they tell the pharmacy to give me a sugar pill???
lots of traffic even on interstates. good thing you are not driving tennessee during footbal season.
maybe 900
we are flying from NY to Pittsburg and then driving to Niagara - Lake Erie - Parkersburg - Nashville and back then back to Pittsburg. The biggie is Parkersburg to Nashville which is 8 hours, but we will share the driving and make a road trip out of it
You will see so much by driving, Kitt. And you will hear different dialects: New York City, Canadian and southern (Tennesee.)
i remember that trip, pa to nashville then to memphis as brutal on a saturday
we're in some kind of war- but the US does it differently, so everyone is under the illusion thaat we have a democracy.
Katie, good plan.
Hurshy, it is not ethical to rx placebos, except when people are enrolled in medical studies.
amen kap. i am watching rick santorum dscribing obama as the great divider.
It's a republic, actually.
they are ALLdividers
well i don't know how ethical i think it is to subject my kidneys to years of clonazepam as a placebo!
agree TO
When you are in Parkersburg, take the trip out to Blennerhasset Island (in the Ohio river) - old historic mansion
Yeah, that is correct- it is a republic.
I agree, Hursh. Patients should be told the facts and the truth.
right Scrabs
Truth? There's a novel idea.
truth as we know it, anyway.
I am missing a center column e.
parkersburg? she'll be in your neck of the woods, wv!
Well, I do not believe in fooling or tricking patients, which is why I am strict with antibiotic rxs and some parents hate me for that.
i wish there were a way to treat my bruxism
eo4 = long time
bite plate, owl
we are about 2 hours from Parkersburg - north and east
oh, yeah.
does not stop it
But it protects your teeth.
it's a rare and wonderful pedi who will refuse a mother antibiotics.
my jaw hurt so bad this am, and i clench it during the say as well
Poor TO
But hego, some parents unleash their wrath on me because they "know" their child "needs" an antibiotic.
therefore all the eating is actually theraputic :)
What does your dentist say, Owl?
I've seen it many times Scrabs.
TO I have tinnitus as a result of my TMJ and that bothers me more than my jaws.
says give me $800 and i will make you a mouthpiece
oh no, molly and hny
single top E in right column please
And we are back!
When I worked at the other practice, with Dr Richard Head as boss, I was the only doc that did not write antibiotic rxs just to please the parents. He wanted the parents happy at all costs.
ey4
seems like that was eo** ago, scrabbs!! what a great change you made!
Molly, I have tinnitus too.
i bought a do it yourself mouthguard two years ago byt have never fitted it
teach the organs of sight

cr8 is a substance that builds up in your chimney as a result of the combustion of wood
have a wonderful day all...however you spend the day be it football...parades... or fun and family..enjoy!!!
got the cr8, was spelling it wrong, ty
yw
<---football here..
have found 48 of the c words, common words
lions ans tigers and bears, oh my
<---- football as well....off to PB for ruru!
Back. Mother called and I listened. 69 to go.
oh jeez car.ee.. if they haven't found here by now they should wrap it up..
Good girl Scrabs!
which babbler thought up the PB?
95 left here.
thought I missed the tournament of roses parade but it will not be on till tomorrow
64. Chugga chugga.
it is the most beautiful parade
And tomorrow is the outdoor hockey game in Philly.
?tomorrow?
tomorrow?
are you coming down to see it Scrabbs?
Yep, because of football games today the hockey game is Jan 2.
No, but I will watch.
ok
OH! I get it now!
NFL today...college tomorrow.
Either way, I am watching football today!
I want to go for a walk because it is so nice, but I am on call and I get annoyed when I get paged when I am trying to enjoy myself. I guess I could change my attitude.
does the cr8 have the so4 within it?
100 left. BBL...
no
Well done swmbo!
I thought maybe because of fireplace-
Changes in latitude...changes in attitude....
The chimney buildup crud = cr8
The ending is do, re, mi, fa, **l, la....
Yes, Car.
and then **a for two and two for **a
Oh, yah
61. bbl. HNY!
Scrabs....go for a walk, but choose a short route that you can repeat. If there are no calls, keep walking, but that way if there is an emergency you are close to home.
Yeah Kaplan! HNY!
Yes, it is 12 minutes to the pond in the park and our development is a big maze, so I can circle around.
There 'ya go then! You are all set! Enjoy yourself for the time you have.....
A little walk is better than no walk.
anyone have the first co 7 please
I have co 7/36 is that the first one?
my first = plural of ice co6 (to keep food cold)
If so, it builds off the co 6/2....one who tricks someone into doing something.....
that's it
: )
thank you car.ee
I love you
I cannot figure out the trickster.
<----wants Ruru to love me too
loves scrabs.. even with the wrong clues
Your local chamber of COmm**** and then add another consonant to the end
I love Scrabs too!
TY for the clue and the love.
I had found some ot5 coe- words but not those.
Why do I keep trying to make Y words?!??!!? GRRRRRR!

I keep slapping myself about that too, Car.
Ths CO words are cruel and unusual punishment...
I agree, Erda.
Hi Erda!
Hi eeyore
The good news...I have only 94 words to go and NBS....the bad news....I STILL don't have NBT!!!
Let me help you with NBT because I have that.

et4 = et + High School
Ooh! I got the ET 5...thank you for the et 4!!!!

I just realized the my name is almost in the grid again today!
Yep

Hi Sue.

It usually does Aloy! Welcome back!
Cool!
A 2nd cup of coffee sounds great. I can sleep in tmrw so no fear of staying up late.
Did you float in the Dead Sea yet?
Help with the second V please? I have vo 4/7.

Think of voice in Latin
I have done that before, scrabs, but not this time, it was cool and windy
How many letters?

Wow, Ruru! Well done!
Woohoo Ru!

I think I should have more resolutions than I'm planning on
Go, Ruru, Go!

39 left, missing a co word but not sure which one
and now it is time for the staggeringly popular crossy,s quote of the day!!
"None of our men are "experts." We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert -- because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible. The moment one gets into the "expert" state of mind a great number of things become impossible." -- From Henry Ford Sr., "My Life and Work," p. 86 (1922):
Peri, here are the Co words co4/6,co5/14,co4/6,co5/16,co6/27,co5/1 4,co6/24,co5/14,co4/6,co4/6,co5/14, co6/24,co7/36,co6/24,co4/5,co5/14,co7/ 36, co6/24,co4/5,co5/14,co5/12,co6/21, co5/12, co6/21,co5/16,co4/5,co6/21,co7 /32,co4/5,co5/12 co4/5,co4/5,co6/21,co 4/5,co5/14,co5/12,co5/12 co4/7,co4/6,c o6/24,co4/5,

so6/21 verb meaning to calm someone down
ty
phantom: recorder
sc7?
i'll come back later
a small moped like machine
the vespras are big in europe
vespa?
I have another sc7 that is a plural of an sc6
perhaps though it was vespra
but i have been wrong before
It's Vespa; it also means wasp in Italian
but it is close enough for cluing
only way to make my 2 clues any better is to just post the word lol
it was good enough for me to get the word, thanks, crossy!
yw suze

Babbly.
happy new year
happy new year seain
hope everyone is enjoying the holiday. It's rainy here right now.
( so... someone from my highschool..in my grad class...added me in fb today - along with other classmates of mine- and i have NOT got a clue who she is but she has added loads of people i did hang out with in HS )
Beautiful, sunny, 64 degrees here
the scenario: crossy has been a lazy bugger and is now getting caught up on 2 days of dishes.all the silverware is in there..now crossy does not believe in dishwashers,crossy believes in handwashing with sunlight dish liquid,bleach and water that is around 5000 degrees..lol.now the silverware is in there soaking/disintergrating/whatever.now someone is silly enough to need a spoon/knife or a fork and seeing as how i am to blame i get to go dunking for the spoon in 5000 degree water there has to be 50 of each of spoon,knife and or fork,so here we go..first dunk..potato peeler..second dip..apple corer,hands boiling need a spoon!...egg flipper..perruvian beaver cheese slicer....fourette maker...yugoslaavian lemon zester....crossy hates carma!
yeah, even in my tiny HS, i'm surprised how many people i did not really know.
rainy and windy here - in upper 50s, but in 30s tomorrow
it's pleasant -- high 50s, if not the subtropical paradise you're enjoying lil*monkey
same forecast here, teach
rainy cold and SUPER windy here... turkey in the oven..we are having our belated christmas dinner tonight cus my kids got home last night
peruvian beaver cheese slicer?
lol
( my HS was over 2700 students )
paradise here :) altho the forecast for tomorrow is frikking cold
thing is leslie after 20 dips,i have found everything but a bloody spoon! lol
you should have cleaned the tongs by hand first.
though it seems to have cooled to 4700 degrees:(
Lil, belated happy birthday to you. Hope you had a fun day.
a thing i've learned from FB is it's amazing the ways in which we've impacted people through the years, and it's an honor to be remembered.
use the spatula to lift up a bunch of things at once crossy
thank u molly, I worked during the day, but had a fun night
saw a great movie yesterday! War Horse!
true enough seain... its driving me nuts...the face is vaguely familiar..but i really am not sure
Nice that you are getting a holiday meal with your kids Carlee. I thought you had said that wasn't happening. Glad it is.
i have heard that one is good lil... i tend to avoid animal movies tho...i always end up crying
i've heard that that one is great from a lot of people, monkey
well...their christmqaas dinner was overcooked hamburgers in mexico...so... they should get turkey
i have heard good things about war horse,heard it is a three hankie tear jerker
LOL carlee
<carlee backs far away from tearjerker movie>
littlebit & I made it through the movie without hankies
heard the ladies and the kids blatting away while just walking outside the theatre
I can't do sad movies either.
i can offer that in e-pub e-book format for those of you who do not mind burning in hell with crossy the pirate lol
i want to go see sherlock holmes... i managed to scoop up a hardcover compilation of all the sherlock books in original typface and original illustrations in a boxing day sale
thoguh the actual book is geard for young teens
oh that one is EXCELLENT, carlee
great movie
very nice book find carlee
backing far away from sad movie/ books... rank up there with the horror for me right now crossy...carlee wants sunshine shone up her butt thanks
finding many books in our youth section of our library that are very interesting that i havent read.. something grimm sisters.. supposed to be very good.. .. have all the classics am enjoying
i wont get to read it until summer ( although i jsut started Pride and Prejudice and zombies; Dawn of the dreadfuls...its a riot!!!)
what i said carlee get james herriots collection,you will walk around all week with the warm fuzzies loving the world
when i find it... i will do so crossy
if you find the who set in hardcover,let me know as well lol
i have been laughing my ass off all afternoon with this one
might check biblio.com
just read a good one called dummy line. new book.
ok..well..turkey is basically done and we have to drive it out to my mum's while keeping it hot ( my mum cant cook turkey for some reason... she sticks it int he oven... at right time... and put the other dishes in the oven at appropriate time ( squash or scallopped potatoes or whatever)... and everything is done on time but the turkey is rare...we dont know why ( no not frozen )....so i do the turkey/stuffing/gravy thing for her...
and we've had the thermostat checked...
huh. there goes my theory then
hi all, back again to try to finish, 36 left, without a list which is damn good for me
happy new year, peri, and well done :)
guess i am spoiled because i fnd it very rough going without lickety list
well I did get some clues from the chog
3 years running turkey dinners were 3+ hours late on the turkey... with reheated everything else...one year mum litterally had a melt down and started throwing things she was so upset...( totally UNLIKE my mum)...so..i do the bird
Carlee, has your Mom checked the calibration of her oven?
anyway..happy New Year! all
I am too ivesy, it is very tedious to have a list and then get morewords, I cannot get babble,morewords and a list to stay on one screen.
we all do, peri :)
yes....she had the repair man out 3 times... they replaced the stove entirely.... she cant cook turkey
still need 7 of the 7 letter words and a bunch of other words
very tedious indeed.. cant figure out what i have and dont have .. may just let this one go.
That is perplexing. Because there is not much more to cooking turkey than putting it in the oven and cooking it for the required amount of time at the right temperature.
I will plod along.I did not finish a few games in the past few weeks and my ranking has gone way down. and it has not come up even tho I have finished all grids in the past week
no idea molls... brand new oven 5 years ago..happened 2 thanksgivings and 1 xmas over 1 1/2 years...after first one...she was sure something wrong and oven still under warrenty... replaced it... new oven ( gas ) and still no cooked turkey
my ranking went down too. was over 1000 now back to 9something.. dont seem to go up as fast as it goes down
roast..chicken... ham..no problem... turkey... still pink and raw inside
anyway....gotta go wrap up a hot turkey and get it in the car ( gotta start car and get it warm inside too )
toodles all
bye car happy new year
tree
oops
yay! found all the c words
go, peri! i only have 31 so far
they are all pretty common, dc

So do I, I have MollyL's list in my profile if anybody needs it
almost added my next word in the chog. That's why I seldom chat.
Min, did you do your story yet? I always get words from them
Just finished story. It is in profile. Want me to post in chog?
read carlees turkey story.my father also fought with turkeys,he always fought to get it to look exactly like on tv,then one year he got serious.he put little slits in the kin and slid in perfect skewers of frozen butterlet the over pre-heat for 2 hours to make sure the temperature was exact,did the stuffing outside the bird so as to not interfere with the hot air circulating around the bird,had a special basting spoon and basted the bird every 15 minutes.it was done..it was perfect,the skin was a uniform brown and a piercing with the meat probe brought fort clear fragrant juices...then it happened.when he went to pull the rack out to lift the roating pan,the back of the rack came out of the oven slot,the entire rack tipped suddenly forward under the weight of 20 pounds of foul and the entire thing tipped over and the bird shot out onto the kitchen floor,skidded into a small utility closet and right into a turd filled tray of cat litter...the cats at like kings for weeks...
skin
yes pls,Min
After getting a babble sc 5/12 of 1992 points, I gave up on grid. Wish I could have sc 6/24 higher, but I knew th 5/12 was no way I would finish grid, so he 4/5 is a story of clues. I have been a co 7/36 and tried to co 6/24 my hubby into joining Babbleland.However,the idea of him joining Babble do 4/5 not bo 4/7 well with him at all. I tell him to just take a sh4/5 at it, but he won't even try the game for a few se 6/24s. Hubby is a sn5/10 when it comes to Babble. I tell him how co 4/5 babblers are. He believes my Babble chatter is a bunch of ho 5/16 and sh 5/12 rubbish.He's le5/14 of the chog.He thinks a bunch of old co 4/5s with nothing better to do babble. Hubby is such a he 4/5. He laughs at me when I tell him I have to have a do 4/5 of Babble every day. He thinks I am lo 4/5 for being addicted to a game. He hopes I will some day lo4/4e my addiction.I would just like to kick him in the buttocks with my sh 4/5s. My ey 4/6 are starting to get tired.It is time for me to be a sc7/32 and sc5/12 on out of he 4/5. I am going to go be a no 6/21 and get a snack to no 4/5 on. I hope you have found some ot5/12 words with this story. I will be back so 4/4 to help clue.

Hello, hurshy!
since having my tonsils out i have lost several pounds cause i can't eat much
last cr6?
my husband says NONE of that weight loss is real and i say SOME probably is
like, real in the sense of, will not just bounce right back if i resume normal routine
Oh, sorry the pain's so bad, ru. I sent that email.
<---thinks he should have his tonsils out again ..
so? who do you guys think is correct?
Hursh, I pretty much ignore anything men say about weight loss. : )
well they do have different systems than we do
I think you will regain at least some of the weight...
i agree, some, but he says ALL
i feel that makes no sense
since my regular routine was gradually losing me weight anyway (before the holidays anyway...)
so you will be able to prove him wrong Hursh. Morning all
Happy New Year to all. Quiet day here with calm waters and blue skies.
what a happy cute cat i have here, hello lynxxx

Name that proper Beat poet friend of Ginsberg.
hello Kaplan
Happy New Year.
to you too!

*thinkin' been down so long it looks like up to me, mr kerouac*
hiya welke
welki*
2012. Still looks so futuristic. Caught myself starting to date a check with 19-- the other day.
No not kerouac- in the grid.
And "Been down so long" was by Richard Farina.
Not that I'm that old.
nice quote
oh that 19something happens to me too sometimes
1974.
i'm off the beat :)
Anyway, it is Corso- Gregory Corso.
isn't the end of the world planned for this year? (Some vague memory here)
sheesh - you know i have them both buried in the basement - the books, not the poets :) on the road again, just can't wait to get back on the beat road again...
Silly Mayans.
hey sprite
Kerouac was kind of drivel.
The world already ended in the 1980s.
ohhhhhh i know
We're just living on overflow.
no wonder they have trouble getting my internet working properly then
Like how the chicken runs without a head.
that's a---oops- almost used the th word- that's my hypothesis anyway
Just because the world already ended doesn't mean you can't babble.
true, babble goes smooth
Name that proper top 40 folk-style singer from the 70s
Bad Bad Leroy Brown.
arlo guthrie
hi dJean, Happy New year
No- again in the grid!
baddest many in the whole damn town
same to you sprite, everyone
Jim Croce- remember him?
rote
Died in a plane crash I think.
oops
yes
oh yes
never thought of him as folk style
what was he exactly? Country?
time in a bottle, another set of footsteps
sort of folk-lite.
Operator, help me make this call.
Croce really had a style all his own. It was a blend of several styles.
I think he died on the day the music died
Love Croce
blues to country to rock to folk is what Bing says
Nooooooo- that was Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper.
ok... I always forget Richie Valens then
Just please this once don't let the whole chog go over to American Pie.
La Bamba!
What a major loss for music.
I get really upset about Gershwin!
And Mozart!
If they had lived...
all in one plane crash was pretty shocking
Mozart was not in that plane crash, was he?
not in the flesh anyway
Interesting idea.
his son aj is a singer songwriter as well hi all
hi TOwl
Who, Mozart?
Hi TO Happy New year.
no, jim croce's son
wow - my chat's not been refreshing. nothing since 5:50! so hello again, folks
hi welki, wb
i am watching the once upon a time marathon. instead of going to see the gril with the dragon tattoo
42 left. Last night I baled with 3 left. Or is it bailed?
My chat freezes all the time and I have to refresh. Wonder why it does that.Seems to happen more on Google Chrome
or bawled?
hi Minver and LeslieAnn, happy NY
People can say what they want about Google Chrome. I think it is a very faulty browser.
same to you sprite!
just what i need, a tv show to watch that requires concentration
:)
Faulty Browser. Sounds like a name.
does anyone else watch it?
I'm watching "One Life to Live" marathon on SoapNet now.
Yay! I'm a Days of Our Lives girl.
i do not see any more words. i should be seeing 37 more.
i used to watch days of our lives til it became the john and marlena show
Few people are willing to admit watching a soap.
hi cosdem, happy NY
oh yes, and she was the devil for a while, yes?
I hate Marlena.
happy new year everyone :)
Will is going to be gay this week.
yes she was possessed.. ridiculous.
then she became a serial killer.
I am a soap fan and proud of it.
hi bookwomen, happy NY
She is the shrink to everyone in Salem- especially relatives.
That was a long time ago. Did you know maggie married Victor?
my soap of choice is degrassi :)
Days is much funnier.
yes i watch days every now and then... i still cant believe victor and maggie are married.
me? no i can't remember why i know that. i think maybe my sister watched it
I liked the family Bellamy... I don't think anyone remembers that one
IMO they shouldnt have fired louise sorel again. she was a great part of the show
You mean Upstairs F
Downstairs?
Ah, all the soap fans are coming out!
I am a former soap opera addict in recovery. I have deep roots in Days.
i'll be watching OUAT marathon. starts in 45 mins
Vivian was getting boring. She's off in India.
vivian is never boring!
marlena is boring. so is sami.
I never could understand the Sami fans. Brat is the word. I have no idea why people like her so much.
Marlena is the absolute worst actress ever. She gasped at something last week- it was so funny.
i keep typing helot.
i may watch days this week if will is truly comingout like the rumors say
Sami does nothing but shed tears. I can't stand her either. I just read that Lucas is coming back to the show. I like him.
sammi had a long stretch of being good- but she's bad again.
smeone needs to tell diedre hall that there is indeed such a thing as "too much botox"
Yeah, it's been a tease for weeks. He is struggling with unnatural feelings.
every bit of botox is too much
My favorite episode of Days EVER was the one where Austin backed into Sami...TWICE!!!
Who should tell her- Lauren Koslow?
i am also going to be watching one life to live... i guess there was a breakout of the near prision and all the crazies are coming to llanview... int he final two weeks of the show lol
actually i read a story a while back about how many middle-aged actresses were so terrible to watch now because they all had too much botox and couldn't make normal facial expressions anymore
my favorite days episode is when vivian buried carly alive
Min, i 'm a long time OLTL fan, or was
that makes sense to me, LeslieAnn
and you keep wondering when in the storyline they're going to explain wtf happened to their faces
On soaps there is the worst plastic surgery ever. Vivian got buried earlier this year in a coffin she made for Maggie.
has anyone seen kathy lee gifford lately? she cannot move the lower half of her face.
I guess they will have to go back to the old story of how they were making faces when the clock struck 12...
i saw that .. i tuned in for that scene lol. i read up on days online... its easier than watching the boring parts
I never really watched Days of Our Lives, but read about it in Soap Digest.I have a feeling I might be watching it more after "One Life to Live" goes off the air in a few weeks.
After a while the script had to reference the smell in the coffin- because viewers wondered how she was going to the bathroom.
min -- my friend whos an avid OLTL fan is now watching Days as well so he can have a soap to watch after OLTL leaves
I thought Friday was the last OLTL
lately they are having all these cheesy romance novel sex scenes with candles
i thought there was two more weeks?
Or is that standard for soaps.
Good Evening Everybody! Happy New Year! How is everyone; and how is the grid? (Should I start tonight or not?)
who has a list today?
We are discussing Days of Our Eyebrow.
hi Nef, Happy NY to you too, and yes, go ahead, it is friendly
HNY!
final episode of OLTL is Jan 13th i just googled it
Alice Horton had a secret!
thanks, sprite. I'm going to dive in! After having my grandson for the weekend I hope I'll stay awake better than last night
January 13this the last One Life to Live episode. When I heard about the prison break on "One Life to Live"I was trying to remember who was in Statesville and the only person I could think of was Cole Thornheart
was she really tom's sister? :)
is cole related to patrick? marty's ex?
evening all! happy 2012
hehehe Nef, want us to yell every now and then?
looks like volleymomdee has a list
oh gawd i know too much abotu the soaps. lol
I never watched another soap- well, maybe a little "another World."
hi dan2bit, happy NW!
Happy New Year Nef and 2Bit
Oh! Please do, sprite! :-D
What about the murderer that Nora was married to?
happy new year
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
"Yooooo Nef!"
I have MollyL's list in my profile if anybody needs to use it.
Bo is a murderer?
I used to be a general hospital addict, back in the late 70s and early 80s
that's not yelling sprite
ty minv
Not Bo on Days.
I'm at 74 to go, and am finding none more w/o a list
no the doctor who was having an affair with lindsay
I loved GH. I have been watching the old episodes on Y-tube.
no i meant Bo Buchanan, on OLTL
it is that darn ocean in between, Leslie!
I watch General Hospital, but it has been boring recently. I hear Ana Devane is coming back as part of Robin leaving.
oh I remember anna devane - she had a big scar near her eye
42 left. I love that all the soap fans are here. Sometimes people in the chog turn up their noses.
I started watching around when luke first raped laura at the club
then it started getting silly with the cassadines and the weather machine and ice princess and all
Worst male actor- Matt Ashford.
I do not think that scar is there anymore, but Todd still has his scar on One Life to Live. I am glad the old Todd is back
hi Harry, happy NW to you
he is jack right?
I think I have given up on this grid.
I started watching when Laura killed some guy and Lesly covered for her. I liked Matt Ashford on SFT
oh yeah I remember that
ce6/27?
fireflies!
He is Jack Devereax. He is so funny.
ce 6/27 green veggies
crunchy vegetable, pickles
congratulations
nice work sprite!
Pickles: a green. Snappy.
ce6/27- boring thing you munch on when on a diet.
ty, harry
and dip into high calorie dips.
pickles, a green. < very poetic.
Cosdem,Cole is Marty and Patrick's son.I didn't watch OLTL when Marty and Patrick were together. Just remembered I think Allison Perkins also was in Statesville. Wonder if she escapes.
yay sprite!
must love and leave you, it is 1.27 am he4, and I guess I should go to bed. Lovely to have seen you all :)
how can marty have a son old enough to be in jail? lol
Congratulations Sprite on your fireworks! Hooray for you!
cole has a baby
Cosdem, it's a soap opera, where rapid aging often occurs.
kinda like on days when one week sami and eric were like 5 and the next week they were 16 :)
YAY, sprite!!! WTG!!
Good night and thanks for putting up with american soaps.
age is meaninglless on a soap
eric from days is now on supernatural
It's called SORAS- Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome.
first ce5/12?
Death is meaningless on a soap.
yes just ask marlena who's apparently died a few times
Kinda like Michael Cortinthos on GH was eight when he got shot in the head. Was in a coma for a year and woke up as a teenager with blonde hair and anger issues.
the only ce5/12 i have is a plural
first one i have is a plural of ce + "again" prefix, harry
Do you know you can take the entire contents of someone's brain and put it on a CD?
that's the magic of soap, tragedy i8s never far neither is rebirth
thanks leslie - have that one
LOL, SORAS! Good one Kaplan the Magne!
John has been dead but they brought him back at viewer protest.
I didn't make it up.
i wonder if Luna Moody will somehow show up in the final episode of OLTL :)
Then they fired him. Then they brought him back with Marlena. But they never fire Sammi.
they'ld have to bring back max
true.... luna's death was really sad
alison sweeney is way too important to NBC to be fired.
i wonder if any OLTL characters will move to Port Charles?
I think the worst thing was killing Bo and Hope's little boy. I don't think they should have gone there.
According Kassie Max is not coming back.
Because of Biggest Loser?
yep
can someone pls clue me the cr6/2 either before or after the lousiana man?
kassie would know
I do not like it when they kill kids.
thanks for the Louisiana man
One of my favorite One Life to Live characters was Megan.
It used to be taboo to kill kids on soaps. And I think it was too much.
cr8/45
my favorite OLTL character was Dorian
did you get the cr that you iron into fabric?
does anyone remember Marco Dane?
thanks for that cr amelu
*raises hand*
thnks for the cr.
Couldn't stand Dorian!I was so glad when she left the show
:o) yvw!
still seeking cr6/21
I remember Marco and Judith Light
i love dorian she was great.... but it was ridiculous she was elected mayor by one vote
Forgot about Marco 'til I started One Life to Live marathon
woo hoo my middle names a word :)
i stopped watching when one of the soaps had something about an escaped gorilla. either ryan's hope or amc
I liked Dorian when she was fooling around with Tommy Lee jones
Cr6/21-you iron into slacks- different spelling
It was ridiculous she was elected mayor at all! Now she is a senator. I also did not know that this is her and David's 2nd marriage. They were married before during the Victor Lord death storyline.
Ryans Hope had the Gorilla chasing Delia
yes!
de7/36?
ty kap
i had forgotten she was appointed senator lol... but she does belong int he senate :P
The Gorilla was named Prince Albert. Why do I remember these things? lol
don't have that de
i also got a job at that time
what about when Luke and Laura had to save the world from being frozen? *rolls eyes*
well that must have been in the late seventies
genie francis and tony...
anthony geary!
i tried to watch GH but couldnt stomach luke
I have only been watching Days since 2004. But so much has happened.
yep, the wedding of the century, doncha know...
The day I finished my dissertation, I turned on the TV
and the rest is history.
oh great the news is saying the country will see the coldest temps of the season this week and next week
the industrial states will get hit by snow
blizzard conditions
well, it is January- can't be 50 degrees forever.
in western ny we have NO snow
which are the industrial states?
with the holidays over i could care less about snow :)
50? Heck, it's been in the 70s here for the last few days...
it was 60 here yesterday.. crazy
No snow here. Hello people happy new year.
I remember when New Years Day used to be cold.
back from golf and ready to tackle the last 44

77 left.. will leave this page open and come back sporadically :)
I will never know about the flying teeth and why they won't die. Nef, go to bed young lady. You deserve some good rest.
they scare me, for sure! LOL! They're just worse when it doesn't stay cold enough for the ground to 'freeze' (such as it can here) for a bit...
I'm still here, Molly. I didn't understand what amelu was saying then either (I had just opened Babble and read that too)
WHAT flying tteth???
can they be mosquitos?
i also do not understand the "flying teeth"
but they scare crossy
No clue what the flying teeth are or why they are scary. But that is good. I don't need something else to be scared of.
now i'm going to be up all night dreaming about flying teeth
the media is giving us a new reason to worry every day
I'm thinking someone's throwing around dentures for some reason....
they mus tbe insects *tryinbg hard not to picture dentures dive bombing*
hi all
there is a flying teeth.com
hi Jen
er,i am afriad to ask what that site is
Nef, the go get cozy and take care of yourself rule is still in effect. : )
i think the web site is about foodies but don't sound scarey
evening all
sorry! stepped away to feed the cats/coons! Flying teeth are gnats/no-see-ems/flying teeth...
Evening, jess.
Molly, I'm relaxing and playing 5 different games of Words with Friends over on FB (of course, a few of my opponents aren't online right now....)

um, the amazing bruce made a cake?
volley, min and molly have lists
volleymomdee has a list
my amazing tom helped me cook soup with black-eyed peas in it, and a baked chicken basted with lemongrass and garlic...
heh. no, he made black bean chipotle soup though...
how can i bet to them????
OR.... maybe you are coming to visit me on this side of the mountains???
no, both cats got adopted today :)
oh yum! and happy for the cats!! :-D
so now just the horses and dogs are left?
i may be making a seattle run next weekend, if pets for vets will take the chihuahua and if i can't find someone headed that way anyway...
yup
cubs - Minveryork is just down the chat here, click on her picture
I will be IN Seattle on Saturday!!! a friend is going to be there for the MLA conference... *wistful look*
thnx rbud
yw! :)
really? maybe we should try to plan dinner?
wouldn't it be fun to meet up! YES! dinner would be lovely.
cubsnut, I have MollyL's list in my profile if you need to use
thnx Min
yw
(and a clue story, too, thanks, Min!)
If you can't find someone else to bring the chihuahua over, I would love to see you -- and you would like my friend, too. She's a wonderfully warm and intelligent person, too (like you, that is).
ooooh. and I am past halfway
yw rbud
yay stid~
emailed you my cel #, stid, so if we both end up in seattle at the same time, we stand a chance of finding each other :)
Does your friend want a Jack Russell? :D
yay, I think I got almost 10 more words from your story, Min. :) 63 left to go now.
last ro 6-7, please?
That's great rbud. I did not think my story was good today.
found a few words from the story just now :)
is that the man's name ro6? hard to clue, def. says it's a name for a gun
but i cant figure out the co7 and co6 from your story hmmm
LOL she lives in Ohio, jes...
ro6/7 old fashioned boys name - like to save or re**u* someone, change the vowels
ty for the ro6/7
and I will text you from my cell phone when I get into town next time so you have mine. Thanks.
he'd fit as carry on :)
co6 is to "wheedle" someone into something, to convince them to do it, sort of bribe them into it... am I helping any? I think my cluer is broke today
a lil bit... i think i know what you mean.. but i cant rememeber the word lol
you're so funny... she already has one dog, though. Today my Lucky is feeling very poorly and I will likely be taking him in tomorrow unless he starts eating. I suspect his pancreas is acting up again. He hasn't wanted to eat for the last couple days, and doesn't want to play, either. *worried mama look* I am not too worried yet, because he sometimes goes a couple days and then gets better. But if he's still unhappy tomorrow... *sigh* It's easy for me to think we could afford another dog, until Lucky has issues, and then I remember why we are so much in debt.
aww, poor lucky :(
co & "have m***y on me" & vwl
thank yoU!
I know what you mean Stid, was thinking of getting #2 greyhound but worked our roughly that Stew costs me $100 a month and that is in good health (includes insurance which I wouldn't be without now)
i refuse to work out how much my critters cost me...i'd probably die of shock.
yep. We don't have insurance for Lucky... probably should look into it, though. He costs about $80 a month for his special food. They're not inexpensive, but they are worth it!
oh phone...
you don't get bulk discounts, jes?
Our last baby cost about $10k over 3 years so I learned my lesson very well
heh. i get service discounts, cuz i don't have to charge myself for my own time.
but, not counting fosters, i still have to feed 2 large dogs, 2 normal cats, a diabetic cat, buy insulin for the cat, feed a dozen chickens, 3 horses (one of whom gets special senior food), meds for the old/falling apart dog, hay for rabbits and guinea pig is minimal compared to horses, but adds a couple bales...
true, service discounts would be nice; I can't imagine feeding that many critters, though.
My Lord!
you might try switching to insects, jes -- stick insects thrive on readily available blackberry leaves...
plus routine things like vaccines for the whole lot of them (i buy them at cost, but still have to buy them)
oh, insects! hah, i forgot--there are scorpions and a roach colony too :) they don't cost much upkeep though.
rofl
pelleted food for the chinchillas...
and don't even think about how much it cost to build the chicken coop and fence in the field!
must go - bye all (and you can keep the roaches Jes)
if you feed the chinchillas to the cats and the chickens to the dogs and ...
bye. lynxxx! don't you know roaches are the "in" accessory pet now? :D
have a lovely day, lynxxx! Good to see you again. Hope your pet costs this year will be reasonable.
heheh. but then we wouldn't have eggs from the chickens
oh, that's true. I am spending $5/week on fresh eggs from the local farm. I would love to get chickens one of these days, but must get the rest of my yard in order, first.
hi, all. Happy New Year.
a while ago, someone was trying to get a tax break for pets through congress. i said at the time that i would vote against it, think it's not how government should be subsizing people, but boy if it passed anyway, i'd use the crap out of it! :)
phantom: cohort
hey melon!
hi melon :)
I wouldn't mind just having the child deductions go past age 17... since both my kids were/are in high school longer than most.
i thought they went to 18?
haven't paid much attention though, as i don't have any dependents
I see there's 5 singletons on the grid. Always makes nbt interesting.
hi jes & stid
Either way, one kid was in school past 18, the other will be there past 19. So all the expenses of parenting will continue. Oh well.
the single o is pretty easy, i haven't gotten any of the e's though, melon
NBT wasn't awful today, melon and halfway was manageable. My goal is 100, and I have to find 7 more for that.
most of the E words are babblets, jes
they can't get part time jobs while in school to help out?
one of the single e is easy too. ey4
oh, fishsticks! thanks, cos
yw :) 53 left and stalled....
i got a set of ey words from the other e....never even looked to turn it around!
Not really, jes -- we live too far from the usual job sources for kids without wheels. And it's very difficult right now for teens to find jobs in our area.
ah, that sucks
NBT
yay melon!
yes, they would like a little financial independence. YAY melon!
not even summer jobs?
and down to 98.
Well, the elder one now has a part-time job at a local music store which he can do even with his college schedule.
:) stid
that's good :)
getting a job is a rarity now :(
The younger one has previously been in plays all summer long, but could potentially find at least part-time work either with the theater or for some of the oyster farms this coming summer.
oyster farms... that sounds... fun? tell him to wash his hands lots and avoid the vibrio and noro :)
oh! there is an SE 7 that is one of trifioso's kids' nicknames!!!
*grin* my brother grew up smashing moon snails for "grandpa" (his best friend's grandfather) who ran an oyster farm. we have two at the end of our half-mile road!
And yes, we wash our hands frequently when we are working with our own bags of oysters and digging clams.
stats on the 8 pls?
good good :) food poisoning is no fun
what 8? hmmm.... *looking*
50 left. i give up. bbl
cr 8/45
bye, cos
I had food poisoning a couple years ago at this time of year. MUCH happier to not get any (that was not my fault, the sausages were bad from the factory)
later cos! happy new year!
thanks magazinemom
yw
is the 8 a word i should know?
i think so - used for staining and preserving wood
melon- it's not completely obscure. Think of what they put on telephone poles and light poles
it's a sticky, tar-like substance.
hey teach!
thanks teach
and that brings me down to 80. going to put the supper food away, check Lucky and get ready to go to a movie.
and what was painted on railway ties
tx all!
later stid!
that word really spirals around.
nbs
nice to see you all today! ***Hugs and new year choclits for all*** *Poof*

Minveryork's down the chat here, click her pic

min's list separates the word combos .. dee doesn't not sure what you prefer

Otherwise, if they're not online, one can go to the Rankings page and contrl F to find their names to click on, for future use. :)

th6 - hypothesis
cr8 is the black tarry stuff that collects in chimneys highly flammable.
ty marpocky!
it is the stuff they coat the RR ties with, nat.
that was my first guess, but was going in the wrong direction--doh!
or what dawg said, lol
silly me
hi dan, has button settled down after the holidays?
I was able to make it to the flip last night, but not tonight.
i don't understand why the rails and phone poles would be covered with cr8, probably bug resistent or water repellent.
Bye to all babblers! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log.
night night, Min.
must be, lbd. i know it is to preserve the wood
I think that is right, dawg. A preservative.
can i get a clue for the n6, not he eater
no + medicine measurement
just googled it. preservative, antiseptic, carcenogenic...all sorts of uses. many not used any longer due to better chemistry.
no6, non sleeping aide.
tyvm! that was my last N!
got it thx
i'm off to my pillows. see you all tomorrow!
bye bye dawg. sleep well.

Hi and happy new years
hi herin!
HI.
I am finding it depressing my mother and father have more fun out with their friends than I did
th 6/27, please
whats the CO7 i have the plural of 6/21
No idea on both of those sorry
co7 is alt plural of co5 before it
th6 is idea/thought
another one - co 7/36 personifies co 6/24
and the pl of the box that keeps your drinks not hot
yeah that's the one bleu said she had
th 6/27, don't get it
nm, finally got it
still not getting it
you come up with a th 6 and then you have to prove it
this grid is frustrating me. gonna wait for the flip.
still 16 minutes bluegirl
I still have 65 left. Guess I'm not going to make it
i have 89 left. it has whipped me.
unless you can think fast
is evolution or creation the th6?
they are both, according to some
Evolution is fact. Creation is theory - ecclesiastical theory
I was only tru=ying to give a clue not an argument lol
A question like that is going to open Pandora's box!!
better keep it shut then
You are probably right. I just like jumping into a fray.
stick to the ce6 thats healthier
Very funny!
fascinating documentaries on H2 tonight about Hitler's final days
we had a supermarket freezer truck full of vegies and fruit they were giving away this morning, they kept the temp 3 degrees too high

our friend works for the transport co and he alerted us so we shot down there
