i'm more worried about the wife at this point, she pulled a muscle from coughing and then another by making the mistake of playing with an 8yr old

awww... I cracked a rib one year when I had pneumonia and was coughing... that was a big mess... hopefully she won't do that

12:27 am

yowch. I coughed so hard once I got one of those freaky broken vessels in my eye.

12:28 am

*sprays clorox before he enters the chat* jeez

12:28 am

ah josh, sorry about your wife, but it is difficult to contain a cold when it in the household - I caught this from hubby

lol hi ru

we both coughed through our honeymoon a couple of weeks ago

12:28 am

poor guy I kind of work with (he's in a different office)... he coughed at Christmas right after surgery and .. uh.. well it's kind of gross.

12:29 am

oh dear, m9

12:32 am

nite nan

luckily she still has a chance to vote in the next election, which is going to be the most important election of our lifetime

12:33 am

Neil, a lot of players ignore the suggested half-clues, so they don't look at the chog this early in the game. That explains the cold shoulders...

Ugh. Should've known... baaad, ru. So bad.

No, Erda. That's fine... but I said hi and no one said hi back except for jilli and Mary.

Surprised me, but hey.

12:34 am

*hands erda a heating pad for her cold shoulders*

12:34 am

Hello, all...

12:34 am

Neil, that happens to me a lot too at this time, when people are concentrating on finding the big words asap

12:34 am

If they are not looking at the chog, they will not see your "hi."

12:35 am

hi jellen

12:35 am

hi there jellen

Erda's not the one with cold shoulders ru. :P

Hi Jellen.

12:35 am

*just can't think of a pun for bromeliad*... kind of like rhyming orange?

12:35 am

No, but I'm sure they saw me.

I'm the first he7, lol.

12:43 am

what does the te 8 relate to?

renting

12:44 am

thank you

te8 relates to what this apartment is... since we're renting it.

te 8... past tense of rented (usually in US used only as a noun for the person who rents)

You coudl say this apartment is te8.

could, even

fireworks

And it relates very much to the te6 before it.

sorry to hear about your grandmother, dart

that totally makes sense. When was the funeral?

1:13 am

thx josh...she was 2 wks short of turning 97..she had a good life

I'm sure it has been a rough time.

1:14 am

amazing dart

No matter their age, it is still tough to say goodbye.

my family is still dealing with news of my grandmother's alzheimers, she is in her early 70's

1:14 am

last Sat. volley....had to make a quick trip back to the Motherland..just got back last night

oooh, sorry to hear, josh.

How's the rest of the family doing, dart?

1:15 am

So sorry for the sad news, dart and josh...

1:16 am

my Dad had to go back to the emergency room...they gave him blood thinners...way too much...and had a bloody nose he/they couldn't stop for an hour...he's home now and they are adjusting his meds

it's ok for now, jellen, we can still see her and there are moments when she still feels like her old self

1:16 am

thx jellen

my dad had probs like that with coumadin; but he did well on it once they finally regulated the dosage

1:17 am

My mom had Alzheimers...

1:17 am

that is hard josh

are there any meds to help with Alz.

1:18 am

Aricept (sp) is supposed to slow its progress...

my grandfather died 2 years or so ago, she has not really been the same since

aww I have heard that is a miracle med in many cases

That seems to be the case often, Josh. Were they married a long time?

i believe 45 years? something like that

Truly amazing.

1:23 am

how are the newlyweds doing volley?

calling it a night, good luck with the grid everyone

1:24 am

nite josh

They are cute as a button... I think they just finished putting away their gifts. She already sent out all of their thank you notes.

Nite josh; hope you feel better soon!!

1:24 am

that is a big job...good for her

I was truly proud of her. I never even said a word... thankfully all of that nagging when she was little paid off.

1:25 am

lol

Unfortunately, the week after they returned home, he was sideswiped by a semi, so his truck has to be repaired.

1:26 am

he's ok?

1:26 am

he is okay, i hopeL

1:26 am

hey dc

Driver almost didn't stop; he didn't want to lose his license or get into trouble. Thank goodness he and his buddies driving to lunch were all fine.

hi dc!!

1:27 am

glad to hear that.

1:27 am

hi, dee and dart

He was just ticked as could be.

1:27 am

I would be too...but things can be replaced

1:27 am

grandpa always said 'better to be pissed off than pissed on'

She coooked an amazing dinner for Valentine's Day, which made me chuckle... the kid who never wanted to cook at home. LOL too true dc

They never celebrated Val Day before. He said he "had" to buy her a card, since it was the first time he could call her "wife", and he gave her a Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head... we cracked up.

1:29 am

Nice! Sounds like it was a fun day.

1:29 am

bring back any memories from when you were first married?

I think they had a lovely 1st holiday. It really did!

Brought back a time I made a recipe called Waikiki Pork Chops. It had a large amount of curry in it. It looked beautiful. We took one bite, and Dan almost gagged. We took a red magic marker and put a huge X through the recipe.

1:31 am

too spicy?

1:32 am

maybe you could make it again and cut the amount down a bit

Yes, and our young palates didn't know what to think of curry.

I don't think either of us has ever come to appreciate curry. I may have killed it for us for life LOL... still makes me laugh.

1:32 am

and now?

I keep being tempted to try it again...

1:33 am

you are answering before my question even pops up...scary!!

1:33 am

Anyone here old enough to remember the Alka Seltzer commercials in the 60s? A young bride makes dishes with love - meatloaf with marshmallows, and I can't remember the others, but the punchline, of course was to take Alka Seltzer.

Do you guys like curry?

meatloaf with marshmallows... that IS a hoot!

1:34 am

i love curry, especially Thai Green and Indian Red

Told you we have ESP dart.

Where would I find those kinds, dc?

1:34 am

Yum, curry!

1:34 am

not sure...don't know if I've had it full strength....I know that OssieAnna liked it a lot

1:35 am

I worked for TVGuide, and each week they had a special feature - one week fashion, another week recipes, and somewhere I have the recipes from the commercial.

What meat or fish goes the best with curry?

really funny, Christine.

1:36 am

hubby was raised on lamb curry, but chicken also good curried

1:36 am

Curried chicken? or there's a recipe for curried lamb, or cod.

1:36 am

Thai cuisine has a green and a red curry. The green is spicy the red is milder. Indian has yellow, brown, and red ones. Patak's brand makes a good jarred Indian red curry paste that, at least here, most supermarkets carry. Thai Kitchen brand makes good jarred Thai red and green curries.

I will have to check out some recipes and rethink it... haven't thought about curry in years.

1:36 am

i LOVE cauliflower with brown curry.

1:37 am

and curried okra as wonderful

DC, silly question, but am I correct in thinking that curry is 5 or so spices, not just one...

Not fond of okra.

1:38 am

at least 5, yes. my home-made brown curry has at least black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, turmeric, coriander, and hing in it.

1:38 am

brown curry powder, that is

what is hing?

1:39 am

whatever is before hung :)

LOL dart... did ru enter the room?

1:39 am

nope..he left a while back

1:40 am

hing is asafoetida: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asafoetid a

teee... thot he was punning....

1:40 am

guess we should be offended by the new neil standards that he didn't say goodbye

1:41 am

oh, cumin in my brown curry powder too

1:42 am

wow, the S was easy

I have never heard of asafoetida before; interesting article, ty... not sure I want to eat something called devil's dung LOL

1:43 am

it smells awful, but tastes good when cooked.

interesting it is an antiflatulent

1:43 am

it's used by follewers of Krishna especially because onions and garlic and 'stinky foods' are not proper offerings to Krishna.

lots of health benefits listed

said the odor is attractive to wolves... that's scary

1:44 am

happily, not atractive enough for them to break in for it.

:)

1:45 am

i love indian food. my cats would protect me from the wolves.

1:46 am

you know how loyal kitties are.

1:46 am

indeed, mab

:) sweet... very interesting article, dc, thanks.

1:47 am

yvw. i realized that answering just 'asafoetida' would not have been helpful :)

1:47 am

and yes the word fetid is part of the latin name

1:48 am

Oh, my eyes are getting blurry...time to look away from the screen...Good night...Interesting information as usual...

1:48 am

6:48 am

(((ruby)))

6:49 am

th 4/5 has a plural

6:49 am

hello ruby

6:49 am

so it does, bichon! How odd...

6:50 am

hello everyone :)

6:50 am

{{annie}}

6:50 am

good morning annie

6:50 am

Hiya Annie

6:50 am

hi, annie!

Morning Babblers

6:51 am

morning, ((ruby)), teach, Molly, sue, Nono, bichon and lurkers

6:51 am

hi Annie, nice day today

6:51 am

Hi Nono

6:51 am

morning nono

6:51 am

Babble adheres to some otherworldly rules of grammar. Hence "deers" is accepted, but "sheeps" is not.

6:51 am

hi nono!

6:52 am

Yes, it is going to be a beautiful day

n

6:52 am

hello rosa

6:52 am

saw McCabe and Mrs. Miller lwas night on TV. It used to be one of my favorite movies but I guess I've aged a bit, lol

sorry and Hi all

6:53 am

That was a long time ago. Forgot what it was about

6:53 am

hi rosa

hi Rosa

6:53 am

Warren Beatty was a rather dumb gunfighter and she was an English whore

6:54 am

maybe I never saw it

6:54 am

Julie Christie. Man, that was a long time ago.

6:54 am

set in the old West, a precursor of Deadwood I think

6:54 am

and you are much younger, Molly!!!!

6:55 am

I've never been a big fan of Westerns.

6:55 am

it wasn't really a western, like Deadwood certainly isn't (wasn't)

6:56 am

I wasnt a western fan but I likee "Have Gun, Will Travel"

6:56 am

*liked

6:56 am

Yes, with Palladin

6:57 am

♪ Have gun, will travel reads the card of a man ♪

6:59 am

I think that was when I didn't have a TV.... :(

6:59 am

Poor deprived little Ruby : (

7:00 am

Lucky little Ruby!!

7:00 am

didn't have a TV in my 1st marriage!

7:00 am

hahah deeha

7:00 am

hi folks - my name is in the grid today! (Joanne)

7:00 am

too bad it doesn't count without an "S"

7:00 am

Unfortunately, kids don't feel "lucky" when they don't have TV

7:01 am

hello jbv, haven't seen you for a while

7:01 am

Cake in the PB for JBV's celebrity status!

7:01 am

I can't imagine a kid today without a TV or a computer.....

7:01 am

I didn't have a tv in my first apartment - for about 6 years, finally bought one when everybody was watching Roots

7:01 am

hi ruby, how's things?

7:01 am

hi jbv!

7:02 am

nothing new, just sad and sadder

7:02 am

why ruby? Hubby acting up?

7:02 am

oh, so sorry to hear that, ruby

7:03 am

Roots, back when Levar Burton was a youngster.

7:03 am

no, he is just in a sad decline

7:03 am

did Levar ever do anything else?

sorry to hear that Ruby

7:03 am

that must be so hard to watch

7:03 am

(((ruby)))

7:03 am

he used to read children's stories on PBS

7:03 am

reading rainbow, I think

7:03 am

he was on Reading Rainbow

7:04 am

Reading Rainbow, my kids loved it

7:04 am

Reading Rainbow

7:04 am

yes, it is very hard. This is a great escape for me

7:04 am

All together now!

7:04 am

ruby, I'm sure it must be very difficult for both of you

7:04 am

(((((Ruby))))))

7:04 am

what is Reading Rainbow? What we get on Fr TV is pretty random

7:04 am

ty, molly, I am touched

7:05 am

ruby, pile up the "little escapes" each day and you will have peace of mind at least for a little while -

7:05 am

don't know if it is sdtill on - don't think so - but it was a wonderful show

7:05 am

that's what I try to do, jbv.

7:05 am

Your dogs must cheer you up. I can always rely on Marco and Polo to do that

7:05 am

me too (same advice I give myself)

7:05 am

I try to keep him fed and warm and comfortable, and let him do as much as he can

7:06 am

yes, Ruby and Max do a good job in that department

7:06 am

I read a lot! play the piano, listen to music, go out for a walk..

7:07 am

I find that a very brisk walk with the two fluffs helps a lot. Then we come home and cuddle

7:07 am

I'm not quite up for a brisk walk, lol

7:07 am

the dog cuddles are good, however

7:08 am

we are having a very mild winter here - the temperature today is around 60! so it's really nice to go out

7:08 am

it has waqrmed up a lot, around freezing now!

7:08 am

any kind of walking is good, ruby - I never thought I would become as active as I have in the past year -

7:08 am

we had more than two weeks in the teens, very rare for here

7:08 am

start very slowly and work up to brisk. When I found out I was diabetic [about 16 or 17 years ago] I was a total couch potato. Now I walk 2 miles with them

7:08 am

I started out with 10 minutes a day, that's all I could do (I was really out of shape) and now I can walk for an hour, no problem

7:09 am

that was me, bichon, minus the diabetes, thank God

7:09 am

bichon, you would go crazy with Ruby: it's stop and sniff, stop and sniff, no real walking possible

7:09 am

And, the Vet always love what good shape they're in.

7:09 am

I also do ZUMBA twice a week - so much fun

7:09 am

I have Gentle Leaders for them and they can't do that.

7:10 am

(((ruby))) some of my posts are disappearing but I am thinking of you

7:10 am

you gals inspire me -- come spring, I'll try to start walking again

7:10 am

{{sue}} you are so sweet!

7:10 am

First nice day, right Ruby. I'll be walking with you

7:10 am

I should send the chows to you, bichon, for training raofl!!!!

7:11 am

time for breatfast, couscous today. bbl

7:11 am

need the E in the 4th column please

7:11 am

With a gentle leader, it doesn't matter how big the dog is

7:11 am

en5, wv

7:11 am

I would get the "lifted eyebrow" (if dogs had eyebrows) look

7:11 am

My foot is ben**** the table

7:12 am

7:12 am

couscous is a "house specialty" chez nous

7:13 am

I have four je's - need one more J - is it je also?

7:14 am

I actually had couscous lessons in Paris in '768 or so

7:14 am

Good morning/afternoon all.

7:37 am

enjoy the nap, Ruby ((hugs))

7:37 am

Quote for today: Listen to your dreams, instead of your doubts. ~ Sam Horn

morning Mom, Crossy, Haz and everyone

7:37 am

NonoNanette, guess I'm confused. How do you get a list for your profile? Do you have a program that figures it out?

7:37 am

nice quote, molly, who is Sam Horn?

no, I copied it from bab anon

7:38 am

JoshuaVorbis has a list today.

7:39 am

babanon has the list posted by neil

7:39 am

there we go,lots of lists floating round

7:39 am

Sam Horn is a former baseball player Ruby

7:39 am

morning, nono, tc and rest well, ruby

7:39 am

ty, molly. didn't know the name, but I've written the qote down

7:40 am

or even the quote

7:40 am

Sorry to hear Mr. Mom was not feeling well. Glad to hear he's on the mend.

7:41 am

If there is a list there, how does it not show up on Likety. Guess I just don't know who is in charge and how this all happens. I just enjoy playing, but have never understood why sometimes we have clues on likety and sometimes it isn't updated

7:42 am

common babblet tw 4/8

7:42 am

Lickety's list is only generated by Mr. P. Apparently it has not been updated for some time. Other people create a list once they finish the grid.

lickety's is done by a program, sometimes it has to be reset and those are the days

7:43 am

mrp's been subbing for lickety re posting clues, I believe -- and she posts the clues when she has time -- understandable

7:43 am

nice talking to you all, good luck with the grid - see you tomorrow

by JBV

7:43 am

bye jbv

7:43 am

bon jour une!

7:43 am

salut!!

7:44 am

did you celebrate Mardi Gras, ruby?

7:44 am

howdy une

7:44 am

tceicher - Lickety's list when it is posted is generated by a computer programme which solves the puzzle very quickly. When other people have lists it's because they have solved the puzzle themselves.

7:44 am

hey, crossy :-)

7:44 am

mrp kindly operates Babble Expert for us. Her husband created the program - no charge. mrp updates it whenever she can, but like any other young mom, her time is not always her own. Let's just be thankful that we have it at all.

7:44 am

then

7:44 am

oops

7:44 am

ditto, nan!

7:44 am

Off to the kitchen, husband home looking for lunch. He times it deliberately for me starting to chat.

7:44 am

my bad

7:44 am

I didn't, but my son is playing for a Mardi Gras masqued party in Austin on Friday (so much for adherence to dates lol)

7:45 am

later, haz :-)

7:45 am

gm unea, haz, nan

7:45 am

sounds like fun, ruby :-)

7:45 am

hey, dawg :-)

7:45 am

good morning all :)

7:45 am

So tcheicher, were those enough explanations for you? : P

7:45 am

howdy cybernan

7:45 am

started the day with thunder, lightning, and big hailstorm -- jeeozmeez!

7:45 am

thanks for the insight on how all this happens

7:45 am

hey, molly :-)

7:46 am

tceicher is sinking fast under the weight! lol

7:46 am

LOL!!

7:47 am

zzzzz for ruby

7:47 am

now I remember that I was stalled when I turned this off last night!

7:47 am

yes, molly, I love the game but once I bought the expert I never paid attention to how it's run. Hope it goes on forever. It keeps my mind working properly

7:48 am

Mardi Gras can go on and on and on Ruby. Laissez les Bon Temps Roulez

7:48 am

I can't remember how I even found this game

7:49 am

I don't use Expert, but those who do, seem lost without it. I much prefer Lickety's list, as you can bulk-add your words, but we must do without when it's not available.

7:50 am

People have volunteered to help out posting the Lickety list but that doesn't seem to go over.

7:51 am

good morning all

7:51 am

well, but it does usually end up getting posted fairly early in BabAnon

7:52 am

hey, peri :-)

morning Peri

7:52 am

Oh, this is all very confusing, thank goodness I don't have to understand.

7:52 am

Molly, I wouldn't either. That would involve giving someone access to the program script -- which can be totally mucked up by as little as a misplaced semi-colon - a script error that can take hours to find

7:55 am

hi peri, time to send hubz off to work. bbl

7:55 am

Yes Nan, I'm very familiar with script errors, unfortunately.

as I understand it Lickety's program runs automaticly unless there is an interruption in the host site then it has to be reset but not that difficult to do but can only be done by Lickety himself or MrP. They probably dont know that it's not working right now

7:56 am

That's what I thought Nono. That it is set to update automatically.

7:56 am

nono - when posting to the internet, it still has to be generated and uploaded each day

its on an auto program nan

7:57 am

but that doesn't mean it uploads automatically -- I don't think that is possible.

7:57 am

help pls with a 7 and 8

te8 past tense of one who rents your house

7:57 am

thanks for the list, nono and the spaces between the words, so much easier to follow.

7:57 am

not from a private source at any rate -- the information still has to be changed and uploaded

7:58 am

ty Annie

yw annie

7:58 am

it's Neil who put it into Babanon last night

7:58 am

meant ty NoNo

7:59 am

9:46 am

9:47 am

ne4 jane

ne6

9:47 am

ah no its ne6

9:48 am

don't know zofran but I did have oxycodon (didn't do a thing for me, must be lacking receptors).. and then tramadol which helped me sleep

9:48 am

zofran is for nausea

9:48 am

zofran is for nausea

9:48 am

oh.. yes, they prescribed a nausea drug too

I wondered why

9:49 am

i had to be hooked up to oxygen, have iv drip, get an ultrasound

9:49 am

10:59 am

abdoominal pain is what theyre saying but they want to do a follow up in 48 hrs to make srue its not the appendix

10:59 am

my regular doctor moved out of state last week so i dont have a doctor yet lol... so they gave me a referral.

11:00 am

Um, hello...do you have an elevated white blood cell count?

11:00 am

no my blood test results came out fine

11:00 am

the babblenon thing is of no value-

11:00 am

i do not know how to get into the damned thing

11:01 am

http://babblersanonymous.yuku.com/topi c/673/BABBLE-STATS-FOR-22-February-201 2?page=-1#.T0UWo_Uxa9c

11:01 am

for sammys

11:01 am

if i ever did have a user name i haver forgotten it

11:01 am

Well then, I wonder why they are suggesting it's your appendix. That usually comes with an elevated white blood cell count.

11:01 am

they just want to make sure... they say its 98% not that

11:01 am

List here: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini .php?id=31983

gall bladder stones, kidney stones, diverticulites.

11:02 am

no

11:02 am

ugh i hope its not one of these bich lol i dont want more pain

11:02 am

whats that hursh?

11:03 am

my boss and his wife have a regular babysitter for their kids for after school. this girl also works at a bar, and the other night when she left it, she was kidnapped while walking to her car, driven to the woods, beaten, probably would have been killed, but managed to escape. complete stranger, but he knew her name.

11:03 am

I love it when people try to diagnose via Babble

11:03 am

hursh, in New Haven or area around. I'll have to look this up?

11:03 am

omg thats scary

11:03 am

That's horrible Hursh

11:04 am

yeah downtown new haven.

11:04 am

one expects muggings, but not this.

11:04 am

molly --- reminds me of when republican senators diagnosed terry schiavo via videotape

11:04 am

is she gonn a be ok hursh?

11:04 am

yikes, going to look it up on WTNH

11:04 am

physically, yeah, she's injured but not in hospital.

11:05 am

i hope she has a good support system at home??

11:05 am

that's strange, but I don't see a word of it

11:06 am

Female bar employees who have to walk to their cars late at night should be escorted. No exceptions.

11:06 am

i just found a story on the register's website. some of the details are different from what my boss told me though.

11:07 am

Agreed.

11:09 am

I just looked at the NH Register website, but don't see it

11:09 am

just google "new haven woman kidnapped beaten"

11:10 am

found it on new haven independent

11:12 am

yech

11:13 am

sorry, i hate it when we have a super serious topic and it kills all other conversation, please resume your earlier chatting

11:14 am

yes'm...

11:14 am

no its ok id rather think ab out something else other than my pain lol

11:14 am

< slinks off to the pb......

11:14 am

why is it when you find out bad news you feel the need to pass it on, anyway?

11:14 am

tyvm sammys :)

11:16 am

at least, i do. i don't think my husband does.

11:16 am

is this a gender thing?

11:17 am

Hi all

11:17 am

Well Hursh, think of it this way. The more people who know, the more people who can send out positive thoughts and prayers.

11:17 am

hello hego

11:17 am

and to SM in the PB

11:17 am

that's true molly.

11:18 am

She already sent herself Hego

11:18 am

well i know i do that...

11:18 am

I'm thinking about your question Hursh.

11:18 am

specially when theres a high profile death. i have to tell everyone i know.. its weird

11:18 am

No molly that was a Hi to her.

11:18 am

so not a gender thing, just my husband being different.

11:19 am

neil. thanks for the great format... spacing is great for my old eyes

11:19 am

Neil makes great lists.

11:20 am

why do i always thing "thena" is a word?

11:20 am

i know i love how he spaces letter combos

11:20 am

*think

11:20 am

Such a good boy!!

11:24 am

Everybody spaces letter combos in their lists.

11:24 am

volleymomdee didn't the other day

11:25 am

(not that i didn't appreciate having the list at all)

11:25 am

Oh, except Dee, she doesn't, that's right

11:25 am

dee usually doesn't.

11:26 am

and i usually use dee or neils since i know they always post a list.. and you of course molly :)

11:26 am

Once, in a very long list he even separated the hea, from the hen,s, etc.

11:27 am

this is a friendly grid

11:27 am

they're very helpful no matter what.

11:27 am

I've quit posting lists in my profile. It seems like way too many people are doing that already.

11:27 am

yes. lists are awesome regardless

11:28 am

there's no such thing as too many people. if you had one i wouldn't have to go over to rankings and find someone's, since you are handily here. :)

11:28 am

I used my netti pot today for the first time. Awesome!

11:28 am

Speaking of lists: where is mrp???

yes, it was jac's list

The direct link to the stats on Babble Anon is in my profile. http://tinyurl.com/Stats-02222012

2:38 pm

If it was to get credit, then I guess you're out of luck

No it isn't HarryHood. Try going to the link I posted or to Babble Anon and checking again?

2:38 pm

i used yours neil as i always know you do one.thanks

No it wasn't. But I don't think it's fair to credit someone who didn't do it, geez.

2:38 pm

Hi, Neil. I do not need any more coins for OMGPOP. I rarely play letteblox anymore. But thanks

2:39 pm

I said ty to minv b/c i got it frmo her profile.

2:39 pm

this is dumb. c u later

Oh those aren't coins, periwinkle. They're XP... experience points.

2:39 pm

hey! Neil, ty for doing the lists!

And they don't cost anything to give you. ;)

Hi hego... you're welcome.

2:39 pm

i can't be missinga th then.i'm missing a t5?

Huh? *shakes head*

2:39 pm

whatever you want to do is fine Neil. but as I said I rarely play anymore

2:40 pm

I want you to know it's appreciated. : )

That's ok. I just do it if I happen to see you in the list there ina game lobby, periwinkle.

2:40 pm

ok

2:40 pm

2:44 pm

Got the list from Jacula's profile.Jacula posted on Babanon yesterday, so I assumed she did it again today.She took the time to post it into her profile so I credit whomever I get list from

2:44 pm

i have it river

2:45 pm

right, i'm off. nite all tc

2:45 pm

Congratulations lillian on your fireworks! Hooray for you!!

No Min. I did... but people just copy it to their profiles of course.

Well she just copied mine, Min.

2:45 pm

Congratulations Riverdance on your fireworks! Good for U.

2:45 pm

We appreciate you doing it Neil - I got to run - have a great day everyone

Which was no effort at all.

2:46 pm

I always go to babanon first.

2:46 pm

Neil just wants his hard work credited.

No, hego. Not really... it's just unfair to see someone else get credited for copying what I took the time and effort to put together... could've been doing other things.

2:48 pm

It is easier for me to just go to other babbler's profiles and copy&paste list into mine.I'm not the only one who does it.

2:48 pm

please don't feel bad, Neil.

Well if everyone's just gonna do that, no point knocking myself out to get one up I guess... someone else will put it in their profile anyway and it really isn't needed. If no, I'll stop... it's no big deal. I could just do other things with that time.

2:49 pm

No one was trying to take credit, people are just used to looking in certain places for lists.

2:49 pm

I always say give credit where credit is due so thanks Neil. I also believe it takes more energy to vent about in the chog

Yeah, that's fine. If it's not needed I'll stop doing it.

Who's venting? lol

2:50 pm

please don't.

Geez, it's amazing how people perceive things sometimes.

2:50 pm

don't stop Neil, please.

2:50 pm

Speaking of doing other things, I am off to do other things

hego, it's late here when I do that stats list after flip... instead of doing that if it's not needed [and looks like it's not] I could be spending time with my g/f who waits patiently while I do the grid and then that... you know? It's not a big deal. If I don't have to do it that's cool. :)

2:52 pm

but I'll miss you. : (

2:53 pm

but your gf is more important, of course.

Miss me? Aww, thanks. But you don't really know me... we haven't chatted on here before I don't think, or much? And I'll still be Babbling.

2:55 pm

miss your lists, and yes we have chatted a bit.

And you can always shoot an email to the address on profile if you want. Anyway... back to work for now. Love avoiding it, but break's over. :P

2:55 pm

bye

Bye for now... take care.

2:56 pm

I'm sure Min put what she did in her profile because it was Jaci's profile she copied the list from. People copy and paste the list into their profiles to be helpful to other players.

3:03 pm

Hi everyone...does anyone have a list today?

6:01 pm

if you scroll down a while in the chog, you'll see a whole big thing about it Sea!

6:03 pm

Good response Champ. I didn't know how to answer Sea's question without there being more of a fuss.

6:03 pm

It was a good time to remain a lurker!

Hi.

6:10 pm

Well yeah Champ, except stuff like that just keeps people lurking instead of chatting and chat is starting to suffer because of that.

6:10 pm

Hmmm...now I am sorry I asked as I don't want to cause another "whole big thing". I will contnue on without a list. :)

6:11 pm

and thank you Champ.

i think i am giving up babble again for lent. but hello nice to see you tonight

6:11 pm

We'll miss you TO

6:12 pm

Oh , really TO? I added in a few things rather than go without.

ty. i have also resolved to talk lessand listen more. so double duty :)

6:12 pm

funny Champ

6:12 pm

At least you'll be back...that's a good thing!

*smiles and nods head* ;)

6:14 pm

Talk less and listen more, great idea for all. : )

Hi TO.

hello herin

6:14 pm

Hi Herin

6:14 pm

Not sure what to give up? No more jetting to Europe for the weekend? Easily given up. No more sinfully rich desserts. Negotiable. Give up Babble? Not willingly.

I have turned into a lurker so can't be stuffed lately

well it has been keeping me from taking care of things i need to take care of. time at least to taper off.

6:16 pm

How is everyone on this first day of Lent? I am trying to complete some project started and not be very successful. I think it would b easier if the projects did not involve ironing.

6:17 pm

For everything there is a season. This is a transitional season and letting go is necessary before moving on.

Speaking of shrove tuesday. Due to mild winter Maple syrup may be in short supple

chog = chat log

7:38 pm

Chat log

7:38 pm

nah....the monkeys stumbled up on it!

7:39 pm

good job!

oh ok duhhh!! my bad just wondered

i must sound dumb sometimes i got muddy water an no bricks in chimney i guess

7:42 pm

It's okay Babblelady. Lots of things get said here that are hard for new people to understand. The whole "monkeys" thing is a good example. Personally, I keep hoping that one will go away. : P

7:43 pm

now to finish the Y.

oh ok molly

7:44 pm

i need a clue for de 5/16 please

don't think i'm gonna finish puzzle i'm over half an still stuck

7:44 pm

comes from monkey as a verb... play around with, play idly... when ones is just randomly entering words that fit the score

7:44 pm

de5 - two of hearts, say....

7:44 pm

or spades

7:45 pm

or in tennis - 40-40

7:45 pm

i always thought it was from monkeys typing shakespeare. you know, give a million monkeys a million typewriters and eventually they'll write hamlet? that's how i feel when i'm typing randomly

i have done that too come up with words i never heard of actually

7:45 pm

that works too, LA

7:45 pm

randomly typing and hoping for a hit

yep

7:46 pm

or maybe it is the Monkees... and we should all break out in song

7:46 pm

Molly, "monkey" types quicker than "blind stupid luck" LOL

7:47 pm

BSL

7:47 pm

blind stupid luck is how I finish most of these grids!

7:47 pm

LA, that is what I have always taken it to mean too. As in the quote: "A million monkeys hammering a million typewriters for a million years will eventually write the entire works of Shakespeare."

7:47 pm

okay, I have tried all, including other websites and I can not find te 6/18 or 8/45. Any help would be much appreciated

i know feeling miz

searched so many ways i'll dream words tonight

7:48 pm

te6/18 is a renter. te8/45 is the past tense of that word, if you can dig that.

7:48 pm

te6/18 a person who rents

7:48 pm

then past tense

7:49 pm

hi again, perhaps my computer is more stable now?

7:49 pm

holy jeezus...I am blind!

7:49 pm

thanks tc!

7:49 pm

can i get another clue for DE 5/16 - i am not getting it

7:49 pm

Used in a sentence...Yokel Landlord: I have done te8 the shack out back, now I kin being collectin' the rent.

7:52 pm

The te6 word means renter, we didn't mean renter was in the grid.

i tried that one too jm no luck either

7:53 pm

it's another word for renter

oh ok molly

7:54 pm

awarn

7:54 pm

It's okay JMitch. Babble probably doesn't accept "youse" either and everyone in Jersey knows that is wrong.

7:54 pm

awan

7:54 pm

oops, sorry

7:54 pm

... it will accept "youse" if its in the grid ... just checked

7:55 pm

Well what do you know, I stand corrected. : )

7:55 pm

... it's amazing what the monkeys can find ...

7:56 pm

i'm in jersey and i hate it when i hear people say youse

de6/7pls?

7:56 pm

8:25 pm

<---likes Joan Osbourne

8:26 pm

... Jacula's profile has a list

I agree, Dorens...

8:27 pm

I agree with that as well.

8:28 pm

if i have all day i'll do it. but full itme work and then dinner date with friends... no, it isn't happenng

8:37 pm

And????

8:38 pm

oh no, cos!

8:38 pm

thanks ru. i knew it would be something i know!

8:38 pm

meds dont help ... apparently i have helicobacter pylori

8:38 pm

hmm, that's what causes ulcers

8:39 pm

yes..

8:39 pm

so i made an appointment with a gast. doctor on tuesday

8:39 pm

i knew it had to be more than acid reflux

8:39 pm

((cos))

8:39 pm

good lord! you have a helicopter pylon???!! my god! the cost of av gas will hurt!

8:39 pm

tuesday seems like a long way away.

8:39 pm

How do they know that without an endoscopy?

8:40 pm

so ru, when in miami we ate nothing but fish or seafood, and drank sauvignon blancs every night.

8:40 pm

wow .. at your young age.. you need to make changes cos

8:40 pm

well he said hes pretty sure.. but wants to do tests molly

8:40 pm

lol crossy i thought something similar

8:40 pm

that sounds nice doren

8:40 pm

i rarely drink. i don't do drugs... i guess its the smoking. :P

8:41 pm

ho5?

8:41 pm

do you really smoke cos?

8:41 pm

could be genetic no?

8:41 pm

yes i do but i've been working on quitting.... ru: ill have to ask my mom and grandma when i call tomorrow

8:42 pm

Cos, that is caused by ingesting infected food and/or water.

8:42 pm

oh yeah i know but smoking doesnt help treatment

8:42 pm

hhats what i read today

8:43 pm

ewwww

8:43 pm

smoking doesnt help anything... except to quench the demon need for a cigarette... and you know that's only temporary

8:43 pm

thats true dorens

8:43 pm

oh i know... i smoked for years. so hard to quit

8:43 pm

the mayo site says that it's an infection that is passed from person to person, usually contracted in childhood.

8:44 pm

wow.

8:44 pm

i'll know more on Tuesday.

8:44 pm

the meds i got today doesnt seem to help.. the pain is worse now.

8:44 pm

*wraps self with saran wrap*

8:44 pm

Be good to yourself until you get back to the doctor Cos. Can they prescribe anything for pain?

8:44 pm

lots of people carry h. pylori, but it doesn't always cause problems - very complicated, bodies are

8:44 pm

not so bad if i lie down still like i am now :)

8:45 pm

well, if it's a bacterium, can't they do antibiotics...

8:45 pm

can you get in touch with the doc or his service, cos? you should let him know that the meds aren't working

8:45 pm

mab: thats why im going to the dr. tuesday.

8:45 pm

thats the only date they had open this late notice

8:45 pm

sue: meds are from the ER. the doctor there told me to come back tomorrow if the meds don't work

8:46 pm

oh. that makes sense. I hope you feel better soon. I have a stomach thing and can totally relate to pain.

8:46 pm

didn't they know WHO you are Cos? jeez.. do we need to contact them or anything.

8:46 pm

Then go back tomorrow, no fooling. There is no need for you to be in pain until Tuesday. (Mother voice again)

8:46 pm

thanks mab :) and please do ru :) and i guarantee i will molly..

8:46 pm

Mother Mary voice?

8:46 pm

not gonna suffer like this til tuesday!

8:46 pm

what molly says. Go back tomorrow. Or tonight if it gets bad enough.

8:47 pm

<gets in line for drugs with Cos

8:47 pm

*Mothers chiming in from all corners*

8:47 pm

lol

8:47 pm

I'm stunned they gave you nothing for pain.

8:48 pm

tramadol

8:48 pm

*Asks the Divine Feminine not to send the lightning bolts Napa way*

8:48 pm

but it isnt helping

8:48 pm

It's like rent-a-mother around here sometimes

8:48 pm

i appreciate the motherisms here since i don't get it much :)

8:48 pm

i am being quiet

8:49 pm

it sounds like they should have given you an opiate.

8:49 pm

*gets in new line with Cos

8:49 pm

tramadol is a synthetic opiate

8:49 pm

it's used in dogs too

8:49 pm

woof

8:49 pm

ru you do not want or need mothering

8:49 pm

i'd have preffered lortabs or perodect

8:50 pm

I don't know why they prescribe Tramadol. I don't know anyone who has taken it that says it's worth a damn.

8:50 pm

yes ru! the first google search that came up.. actually the first 10 hits were for tramadol and dogs

8:50 pm

true doren.. I really don't

8:50 pm

i'm not motherly, just opinionated.

8:50 pm

and empathetic

8:50 pm

lol . that's the same thing mab

8:50 pm

i was thinking wtf did she just prescribe me dog pills?

8:50 pm

opiniated + caring= mothering

8:51 pm

Oh hey, I think everyone needs Mothering from time to time. The good kind anyway.

8:51 pm

i'm on a facebook group for people with chronic pain, and no one seems very enthusiastic about tramadol

8:51 pm

i do treat my cats very sweetly.

8:51 pm

they're only 50 mg each

8:51 pm

and only gave me 10 pills

8:51 pm

wrong ER Room cos

8:52 pm

<---Wants to go kick stupid, Doogie Howser ER doctors.

8:52 pm

yeah... well hopefully ill get something that works tomorrow

8:52 pm

I think tramadol isn't a pain reliever in a typical way.. it just interferes with the pain receptors

8:53 pm

just be emphatic regarding the kind of pain you have.

8:53 pm

hmm, so how do typical pain relievers work, if not by interfering with pain receptors? (I really don't know)

8:54 pm

it was quite a crazy night.. i walked in.. nearly fainted... then they promptly put me on ekg machine, oxygen tank and started IV fluid

8:54 pm

good question.. we need Kje to answer that

8:54 pm

but if we wait for KJE it might be a long while

8:55 pm

you poor thing!

8:55 pm

whoa i just played a 90 point word on words with friends

8:55 pm

In BabAnon and Jac's profile

Hi, lbd

hi lb

9:22 pm

yw

9:22 pm

just read about your contractor being in hospital, JMC. hope he recovers soon.

9:22 pm

hi jellen, hi babblelady

9:23 pm

his brother says he is doing better

9:23 pm

chemo can be really hard to take. sending my t's and p's to him and his family.

9:23 pm

how nice of you lbd

9:25 pm

well, the sooner he's better, the sooner your house will be done. ;-)

9:25 pm

haha there is that--i told his brother i would wait

9:26 pm

anyone need clues? just killing time here.

hi all, hope this grid not as hard as it looks

9:27 pm

chemo is so debilitating, and then having an allergy - horrible. what sort of cancer does he have?

9:27 pm

probably lbd but i thought i would do one round of the list first before i start begging

9:27 pm

it's not too bad, gwen.

9:27 pm

mmmm maybe not for you book

9:27 pm

something to do with bones mab -- i never asked

9:29 pm

et6?

9:29 pm

sounds dreadful. I would like to be on the national bone marrow registry. not sure how to do so.

9:30 pm

ask your medical provider -- they probably know

9:30 pm

et 6 is a gas

9:30 pm

sounds like fred's wife on i love lucy

9:31 pm

no L

9:32 pm

i am clearly dancing all around it

9:32 pm

obviously, since there isn't one in the grid...

9:32 pm

mab are you singing christmas songs? LOL

9:32 pm

not likely

9:32 pm

got it!

9:33 pm

haha lbd cu**!

9:34 pm

tyvm for the et6

9:34 pm

i have almost finished Jane Eyre

9:34 pm

i found it most annoying

9:35 pm

why???

9:35 pm

i could see that, jmc...I recently reread it.

9:35 pm

lol, yeah it was the first time i read it. not much for romance

i too found jane eyre annoying to read. but i liked the BBC serial of it 8-)

9:35 pm

70 mph going on here in town.. we lost power for a bit

9:35 pm

i am suppose to find a man who regretted marrying in haste to a woman because she was 1--beautiful 2--his dad told him to for the $$ and 3--other men wanted her?

9:36 pm

i am suppose to find him sympathetic?

9:36 pm

the classic victorian novel, JMC.

9:36 pm

i found him mostly Pathetic.

9:36 pm

it was written in the mid 19th century, what did you expect?

9:37 pm

then he tried to trick jane into being his mistress and then he tried to persuade her he wasn't really married because. . . well that rant never made sense

he's sympathetic despite that he made one stupid mistake . . .

9:37 pm

i read several novels from that period and i usually like them just fine

9:37 pm

the only sympathetic thing was his trying to save his wife at the end

9:37 pm

you ought to read The Wide Sargasso Sea, by Jean Rhys. written from the perspective of the wife in the attic.

9:38 pm

he made at least 3 stupid mistakes

9:38 pm

i would guess that is a creepy book mab

well, everyone makes stupid mkistakes on occasion . . .

9:38 pm

well you know jane can't have him until he's all burned up and useless.

9:38 pm

trying to trick the woman he loved into being his mistress?

9:39 pm

no, Jean Rhys was brilliant.

9:39 pm

et5 please? (sorry to bother)

9:39 pm

i guess -- i liked him up until the time it was clear he was trying to get her to bed without marrying her really

he behaves like a single man because he has a secret

9:39 pm

pt of consume cosd

9:40 pm

et5 is a piano study

9:40 pm

I don't know, I'm steeped in 19th century English literature, I practically live like I'm a character of Charlotte's

9:40 pm

i needed that one too jmc thanks.. and ty jellen

9:40 pm

and there he was all snooty about the woman not wanting to marry him if he were not rich

9:40 pm

sorry jell is right

9:41 pm

second he7 please

9:42 pm

... having gotten a fake tattoo in the past

9:42 pm

pt of dye hair red i think

9:42 pm

does' better.

9:42 pm

ah of course ty ty

9:43 pm

... but your's is more correct

9:43 pm

hi dose

9:43 pm

... so did you prefer Mr. Darcy?

9:43 pm

that's jane austen

rochester is much more interesting off the page and with a top-flight actor playing him 8-D

9:43 pm

de 6/24 please?

9:43 pm

i could understand darcy and he did not try to trick someone into bed

9:43 pm

... and it's not even Victorian ...

de6, a whole bunch of deceased ones

9:44 pm

... plural

9:44 pm

... de5/14

9:44 pm

ty for my last 2 D's :)

9:45 pm

Charlotte was later than Jane, and she delved more into the nature of her characters, rather than writing about incomes

9:45 pm

victorian--regency--whatever

9:45 pm

jane wrote a lot about the characters but they were more revealed by their actions

9:45 pm

not that i don't love austen, i do

9:46 pm

well hard not to love austen

9:46 pm

i am also a georgette heyer fan

9:46 pm

th6?

9:47 pm

you wa** a real victorian novel read st elmo's fire--500 pages!

9:47 pm

just stole a peek at Wide sargrass sea...looks interesting. will have to see if i can find it locally.

9:47 pm

will it depress me lbd?

9:47 pm

th4.5 + **e you going to the fair?

9:47 pm

9:47 pm

9:48 pm

I don't know, JMC. just read a few pages mostly intro.

9:48 pm

ty lbd and jell

9:48 pm

mab what do you think? i am not big on reading depressing books--life is enough for me

9:49 pm

it's not real happy but it's beautifully written

9:49 pm

i only read jane eyre because my sister gave it to me for christmas--oddly enough it was my lesbian sister

what shall we use to fill the empty spaces where we used to talk . . . ?

9:49 pm

and fascinating since you just read jane eyre

9:50 pm

uh. . . i still talk book

9:50 pm

i will consider it mab

all this talk of depressing books has brought to mind an excellent but depressing movie (Pink Floyd The Wall) which is now stuck in my head, I mean one of the songs

9:51 pm

th5/16 please?

9:51 pm

I have it right here on my shelf. Too bad I can't just pop over with it.

9:51 pm

9:51 pm

oh i never saw the movie--the album was evocative enough for me in those days

9:51 pm

haha mab!

the movie is kind of artsy fartsy but in a good way

9:52 pm

... do you mean te5/16? or th5/12?

9:52 pm

i never saw it either; my ex thought I would go off the deep end if i did, and so i didn't really want to see it.

9:52 pm

well back in the day pink floyd was kinda artsy fartsy

9:52 pm

9:56 pm

9:56 pm

fluffy is good going to get me some trollope

9:56 pm

... ibd's clue is easier

9:57 pm

oh dose you just like to challenge us! ty

9:57 pm

nowadays I read mostly contemporary fiction.

9:58 pm

nowadays i mainly read social science books about development and peace building theory --belch!

9:58 pm

hahaha i meant blech!

9:58 pm

... hey I've gotta read Nietzche so that I can talk to my daughter ... ...

9:58 pm

... I love freshman poli sci students ...

9:59 pm

*makes note not to try to engage dose's daughter in light conversation*

9:59 pm

... they know everything

9:59 pm

i have such a hard time reading nonfiction. it's a huge flaw of mine.

i read a little bit of everything, usually just before i sell it, ha!

9:59 pm

... barkeep! a round of Kindles for everyone ... g'night all

10:00 pm

yes in my international development class all the other (younger by 30 years +) students were very clear that there is an answer to the best form of international development while i said: depends

10:00 pm

night dos

10:00 pm

i think that would be the nice thing about having a book store book

10:00 pm

bye dos

oh, yeah. do you know the difference between a picnic table and a bookdealer?

10:01 pm

wr5?

10:01 pm

i would have a hard time letting people buy books

10:01 pm

they could buy them after i read them

wr5, extreme anger

10:02 pm

what is the difference book?

10:02 pm

ty

10:02 pm

i like to reread

ahem. a picnic table can support a family of four.

10:02 pm

hahaha poor book!

10:02 pm

undergrad degree in art history and english= useless

10:03 pm

so you are saying my dream of being a wealthy used book seller won't come true?

10:03 pm

good joke!

i majored in music theory. hard to make a living with that one, too!

10:03 pm

except it's probably true...

10:03 pm

not at all mab--maybe not commercial but not useless

10:03 pm

i majored in chinese history and have done just fine

well, it's probably kind of like showbiz, where 1 out of 1,000 (or so) makes it big, and the rest struggle and wait tables to scrape by

did you hear about the bookdealer who won a million dollars?

10:05 pm

no book do tell

10:05 pm

i'm thinking of teaching english as a foreign language. need to talk to minveryork about whether one can do so with a certificate, or if one needs a masters deg.

they asked him what he was going to do with his windfall and he said, "I guess i'll just keep selling books until it runs out" ha HA

10:06 pm

ha!

10:06 pm

Hahaha!

10:07 pm

haha

(bows ever so slightly)

10:09 pm

y yped out

10:10 pm

well i did look at your bookstore during the sale but your tastes are too high class for me

10:10 pm

i will try again sometime after i get a new job

too high class? surely not! did you find the porn? lol

10:11 pm

no haha i missed that!

oops, i mean erotica . . .

10:12 pm

i was looking for harlequin romances!

10:12 pm

enough po. . . .erotica there for me

sorry, i have a strict no-harlequin policy, seriously

10:14 pm

ah what can i say i think they are at least as good as your average science fiction and they always have a happy ending

i don't have much fiction, just a few weird items, or if they are in some way collectible, but harlequins i am fairly sure will never qualify

10:15 pm

haha probably not

are you aware that the publisher actually classes their books by number of words? no other publisher does that, AFAIK

10:17 pm

I didn't know that!

10:17 pm

no i was not.

10:17 pm

i've never read a pulp romance novel. i wonder if i'm missing out. i'm pretty sure my own fantasies are better.

10:18 pm

i didn't know that

10:18 pm

i only really read the regency ones--i started when my husband was dying and i needed to know that i wouldn't be depressed by the book

i used to work at a literary agency and i saw their submission guidelines. their different divisions (each with a diff editor) were determined strictly by length. talk about formulaic

10:19 pm

then i stumbled into georgette heyer who is a fabulous writer and a historian

10:19 pm

oh. i didn't want to ask, but I thought you were a widow, jmc. im so sorry.

10:19 pm

well the other thing i liked about the harlequins is that i knew i could read one in an hour

however, i later worked at a used-book store (a "real" one) and learned that 99 out of 100 romance buyers are indeed women

10:19 pm

ty mab he died a long time ago--1993

so they definitely have their target audience

10:20 pm

oh. even worse!

10:20 pm

so young

10:20 pm

and 99 out of 100 sci fi readers are men and so sci fi--also formulaic is acceptable

10:20 pm

i object to no book store not carrying romances that doesn't carry sci fi

and hey, ya know what? buyer number 100, the male, is a really creepy guy LOL

10:21 pm

hahaha probably so book!

10:21 pm

babblers seem to like fantasy and sci fi, in general. I don't care too much for either. can't read fantasy at all

10:21 pm

i used to read it but i got tired of how sexist it tends to be mab

10:22 pm

feminist fantasy is just as bad

10:22 pm

imho

10:22 pm

hahahaha

10:22 pm

i want to find truth in my novels

if i had a "real" store -- which i hope to one day -- I would of course have plenty of fiction of all types. it's just not worth my time to handle $2-$3-$4 paperback books when i'm mail-order only and have only 725 square feet to work with

10:22 pm

like big life truths

10:22 pm

that makes sense book

10:23 pm

if you accidentally get a romance novel sell it to me

therefore i specialze in "unusual" books, in other words, as pricy as i can get lol

10:23 pm

i couldnt even get through the hobbit

jmc, are there no longer any used bookstores near you?

10:24 pm

i will read it and then give it to the book sale for the multicultural high school

10:24 pm

and i'm sure it's very wonderful and inciteful....

10:24 pm

haha not to me mab

inciteful! lol

10:25 pm

when I lived in dupont circle there was a wonderful used bookstore, crammed with odds and ends and treasures

10:25 pm

haha well maybe inciteful (starting trouble) since it is not insightful!

10:25 pm

Twice a month, I run the Library booksale, and as soon as a Norah Lofts book comes in, it's snatched up ... my ladies do like their romances.

10:25 pm

(don't let my joke hurt your feelings mab!)

10:25 pm

i likes them too chistine

i am always giving away "low-end" books -- recently gave some to the veterans hospital -- they have a bunch of waiting rooms filled with romance novels -- don't know why -- whereas the patients are mostly men who want westerns and so forth

10:26 pm

although i had an under-the-table deal with my librarian

10:26 pm

oh! i frequently get those mixed for some reason!

10:26 pm

I live a sheltered life, and I like my murders between bookcovers.

10:26 pm

i do love english murder mysteries.

10:26 pm

if i read a romance novel that was in anyway positive about rape or date rape i tore it in two and gave the library a different novel

so i donated a bunch of "men's interest" books -- military history and so forth

10:27 pm

that was nice

10:27 pm

good for you book--but there are women veterans and sometime wives bring hubbies

10:28 pm

when i worked for hospice, the veterans hosp was a really rough place

10:28 pm

I like the 30s murdermysteries - Dorothy Sayers and Agatha Christie, but there's also a lot of good mysteries being presented now - I just order 15 at the library.

yeah, i know there are women veterans, but that is no reason for all the books to be romances! my guess is that they were donated and the hospital took 'em cuz they were free

10:28 pm

knife fights outside the door were not unusual

10:28 pm

*ordered

egad!

10:28 pm

georgette heyers wrote murder mysteries too but hers were terrible!

10:28 pm

p.d. james is my favorite, but i love sayers too

10:29 pm

goodness i am glad that is not true of the VA here!

10:29 pm

i am fond of the aunt dimity series

i'm talking about the VA hospital in detroit and i've never heard about anything like that there! (but i'm not there a lot or anything)

10:29 pm

A new P.D.James is out, about Elizabeth & Darcy - a mystery I guess.

10:30 pm

there is a recent one. . . brb while i look up the author

10:30 pm

i saw that christine

10:30 pm

yes, eager to read it

10:30 pm

she's 90 now, pd james

well i'm off, it's been fun chatting, book chat is always nice 8-)

10:31 pm

and ruth rendell, another favorite, is 80

10:31 pm

oh! good night gwen

10:31 pm

Really? I ordered the new Elizabeth George book - another Inspector Lynley case, Michael Connelly, Robert Crais.

10:32 pm

Book chat is best, we don't have raised voices.

10:32 pm

Goodnight, Gwen.

10:32 pm

inspector ian rutledge

10:32 pm

bye book

10:32 pm

who is the author?

10:32 pm

Who writes that?

10:33 pm

That's what I was trying to say - lost the word 'author'.

10:33 pm

great book==> a guide to birds of east africa (novel)

10:33 pm

Have you read Alexander McCall Smith?

10:33 pm

you mean nobody gets murdered?

10:33 pm

charles todd writes the ian rutledge books--he is suffering from

10:33 pm

10:34 pm

he is suffering from PTSD

10:34 pm

oh my

10:34 pm

the character is

10:34 pm

oh, you scared me there.

10:34 pm

sorry

10:35 pm

I like Smith...

10:35 pm

not a big fan of mccall smith but will read it

10:35 pm

is he british? i do love the british cosies, or whatever they're actually called.

10:35 pm

aunt dimity has lots of magic which i generally hate but it is well done

10:35 pm

he is british

10:36 pm

ah - that would account for the birds.

10:36 pm

i also like charles finch

10:36 pm

and bernard cornwall who writes about war

10:36 pm

i think i'd like todd

10:37 pm

I've read some of the Ladies Agency books, recently read Corduroy Mansions and 44 Scotland Streetl, which are a different type of story. And there's a sequesl to 44 Scotland Street, which I've ordered at the library.

10:37 pm

no the birds is by nicholas drayson

10:37 pm

i have not read the 44 scotland street or the mansions book--maybe i will like them better

10:37 pm

wow. it's a huge genre.

10:38 pm

that is the nice thing about mysteries--something for almost everyone

10:38 pm

i need one more word to get to 30 left and bed :-(

10:38 pm

Someone, last year, recommended Connie Willis, who writes a fantasty series, which is not something I generally like - time travel in this case. But her characters go back to medieval England, and to London during WWII, which does interest me. Good books.

10:39 pm

i will consider that -- not much into fantasy books either--too much revisionism for me

10:39 pm

je6/33 please

10:39 pm

it's good sometimes to read something that goes down so easily

10:40 pm

je 6 rhymes with body of congress

10:40 pm

I was a little girl in London, during WWII, so I don't actually remember most of the things she mentions, but I remember hearing about it.

10:40 pm

it's a female mule or donkey or something

10:41 pm

what a fascinating and scary time

10:41 pm

ty that makes 30 left and enough

10:41 pm

Nora Lofts writes fantasy under another name - set in 2520, I think. Remember, back in the 50s we were told we'd all have flying cars by the turn of the century -- that sort of thing.

10:41 pm

10:42 pm

i must away as well. night all.

10:42 pm

one of my favorite pictures is of a library in london during the bombing where shelves of books are standing in the open air and people are looking for something to read

10:42 pm

goodnight.

10:42 pm

Christine, were you evacuated to the country when you were a girl?

10:42 pm

okay bye all and sweet dreams

10:43 pm

hi, all. my husband made me cry in public today. he bought me a 1/4carat round diamond solitaire ring.

10:43 pm

that's the british for you. keep calm and carry on.

that was sweet of him

10:43 pm

Bye, jmc!

10:43 pm

how lovely!

10:43 pm

Aww...Angel!

10:44 pm

is it an anniversary?

10:44 pm

No, we stayed in London, most of the time. A short trip to Wales, then my Dad had leave, so we came back; and then to his sister in northern England, but back again soon after. My Mum was pregnant, and wanted to be near her Mother, I guess.

10:45 pm

so interesting, christine.

10:45 pm

ok. must go. bye

10:47 pm

mab, my birthday was last week

10:48 pm

I should go do the newsletter for the Quilt Guild.

10:51 pm

quilt guild? *ears perk up*

10:53 pm

I like quilting...

10:56 pm

FINALLY! fireworks!Been stuck with the last one since 2:19

10:57 pm

Were a not-very-large group, we've been in existence for about 28 years, and I think we do as much chatting as we do quilting, at our meeting at any rate, but we make a lot of quilts for local charities - Children's Hospital, and a shelter for at-risk teens and young people.

wtg min i never make it to finish over half done though

10:58 pm

It is much ahrder to finish without Lickety's. If Lickety was up you probably would have finish.It was a semi-tough grid

10:59 pm

sounds lovely, I'd like to start a group like that around here.

10:59 pm

oh, yay, Min, congrats!

11:00 pm

rbud, I'm sure you can find a guild near where you live.

11:01 pm

*harder

11:02 pm

I will be here for a little longer to help w/clues if needed.

11:02 pm

Do you belong to any online group, if there's not a guild near you?

11:03 pm

hi all. 37 to get

11:03 pm

well, we have a local one, but they're... well, I can't afford the level of involvement they get into. I'm too poor to get my quilts quilted by ladies with machines, and they don't do it the old-fashioned way, if you know what I mean. They have a favorite local store, owned by members, and the material is astronomically high-priced.

11:04 pm

Hello m9f9l! How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log.

11:04 pm

doing well. thank you.

11:04 pm

hi, m9, I'm right about where you're at with the grid. hope we make it!

11:05 pm

I read that lickety is not there. Does anyone have a list in their profile? Hi everyone.

11:05 pm

nononanette has a list

11:05 pm

I need one more 7

11:05 pm

anyway, would rather have a small bunch of happy local ladies here in town. The big group is a town or two over.

11:06 pm

tks

11:06 pm

I don't quilt - I enjoy making the blocks, or a baby quilt, but the hand quilting doesn't interest me, and I'm a dud at machine quilting. So I tell them, I'll do the patchwork, someone else can quilt it. A couple of our members have big quilting machines - I don't have the space even if I had the money for one.

11:06 pm

joey, I have Jacula's list in my profile. She got it from Neil.

if i was there rb i'd help i love quilting

11:08 pm

rbud, are you in a small town? I bet your fabric shop know of a group, perhaps at a local church, or the parks and recreation department.

we did it old fashion long way on a frame took long time but fun. an i'm not a good sewing machine person

11:08 pm

That's a good approach, I suppose I could just do blocks to donate. But I'm kind of independent in my quilting, I end up with things that seem more like art. But I do make quite a few kid's quilts with matching pillows for new babies.

11:09 pm

folks are always happy to get a quilt for their baby, so few do it any more.

11:09 pm

I need to go to bed. I leave you all with story in my profile.

cut out all those pieces by pattern an hands

niterz min tc

11:10 pm

Goodnight to all babblers! I will see you tomorrow maybe.

11:10 pm

I keep thinking I want one of those rotary cutters, and to get really assembly-line about it like I see on tv, but so far I'm still cutting them with scissors, lol.

11:11 pm

love my rotary cutters

11:11 pm

The local ladies do put on a great quilt show every year, Mom and I love to go look at all of them.

11:11 pm

How lovely. We have one member who does art quilts. A condition of membership is to make two babyquilts for Hollywood Childrens Hospital, needn't be complicated, just a bind and back a panel without batting for new babies. And now we're committed to making 70 twinsized quilts for the shelter.

11:12 pm

oh, wow, that's a big project! how nice!

11:13 pm

nice. I used to help the woman who did quilts at our church. She did all our quota pretty much by herself.

11:14 pm

my last attempt is still ongoing, trying to recreate a stained-glass window look with big flowers and leaves, all with 1/2 inch black outlines, saw something like it in the show a couple years back.

11:15 pm

kind of just outlining with binding, more or less.

11:15 pm

A couple years ago, my daughter and I made an all denim quilt. That was fun

11:16 pm

We have a steady core of about 18 members, the rest are not in the area, or come in occasionally. So about 8 or 9, plus the friend of one member, are making most of the 70quilts. One of our projects is working with women on Skid Row - no longer living on the streets, but in SRO housing, and a couple of them made and donated quilts.

11:16 pm

oh, nice! I have tons of old denim sitting around, keep thinking I'll do something like that with it.

11:16 pm

I listed.

11:16 pm

All denim? must've weighed a ton?

11:16 pm

it wasn't SUPER heavy. It was nice.

11:17 pm

The boy graduating high school liked it.

11:17 pm

do you know a good online quilt group, Christine?

11:19 pm

http://tinyurl.com/6m7f352

11:20 pm

Sorry, telephone. I belong to sisterquilters, a yahoo group.

11:20 pm

Sorry, telephone. I belong to sisterquilters, a yahoo group.

11:22 pm

I've checked into some block-of-the-month clubs/groups/blogs, kind of interesting.

11:24 pm

lots of neat pictures there, m9!

11:24 pm

oh! LOL.. I suppose it linked to the whole thing.

11:25 pm

is that yours?

11:25 pm

yes

11:26 pm

nice! beautiful flower shots.

11:27 pm

it went to June of 2009, your link, I mean.

11:27 pm

rbud, I think my email address is on my profile - I'll hook you up with sisterquilters. We have some fun things, birthday FQs, Christmas-in-July, things like that - only if people want to join-in, not mandatory.I'll go get the info.

11:28 pm

I like flowers

11:28 pm

ah, now I see the denim quilt, lol, on down...

11:29 pm

thank you, Christine! :)

11:31 pm

did you tie the denim quilt, or tack it, maybe? sometimes I just bar tack my smaller quilts on the corners of the blocks, if I can fit it in the machine.

11:32 pm

we tied. You can see them before trimming in the pic

11:33 pm

I just looked and I have only 27 pics in my "flowers" album at fb. And then there's a "more flowers and stuff" album...LOL

11:33 pm

oh, in the close-up, yes! I hadn't clicked on it yet.

11:34 pm

that's a great quilt! :)

11:35 pm

I think it turned out nicely. We did it fast.

11:36 pm

I like the raw-edges-out look. Good for denim.

11:36 pm

I like to sew.. I really should do it a bit more often.

11:36 pm

That was my daughter's idea.

11:36 pm

testing icon

11:36 pm

ugh.

11:36 pm

And then we just did a bias tape binding if I remember correctly.

11:37 pm

Me too, I used to support myself doing it years ago, "clothes by rose", haha!

11:37 pm

nice.. did you see my daughter's wedding dress?

11:37 pm

right click and reload the little image, it worked for me, cos!

11:38 pm

violin smurf?

11:39 pm

yes it works now thanks :) icon theme is violin. i improvised

11:39 pm

no, I guess not - where was it - on fb?

11:39 pm

maybe I did...

11:40 pm

Yes. last year.. made of muslin and cheesecloth

11:40 pm

I made my first wedding dress, and made lots of bridesmaid dresses for money back then. But only the one wedding dress, mine.

11:41 pm

oh bridesmaids! That can be um...

11:43 pm

a PITA!!! they were always soooo uncooperative... wouldn't bring their shoes or "undergarments" to the fittings... then fussed about the fit... sigh

11:43 pm

even though I told them to bring all that..

11:43 pm

I had one get liposuction .. in body hugging THING at fitting.. swore she would still have it on at ceremony..

11:43 pm

then took it off..

11:44 pm

oh, nooo!

11:44 pm

her WHOLE shape changed!!

11:44 pm

LUckily I make my own patterns.. so I just redid her back panels...

11:45 pm

but still....

11:45 pm

oh, Lord, I totally understand, how frustrating!

11:45 pm

and they told me EXACTLY the lengths they wanted.. then "it's too short".. or whatever.

11:46 pm

The pregnant bridesmaid (maid of honor?LOL) looked awesome in the alternate design I made for her.

11:46 pm

That was for a member of my choir.. she wanted bridesmaid dresses that matched her dress..

11:47 pm

interesting off the shoulder/sleeves same piece as the center of bodice thing..

11:47 pm

Took me a while to figure out the construction.LOL

11:47 pm

I made a black velvet dress "from scratch" for a woman a couple of winters ago, she brought a tiny dress, about a size 4, that she wanted me to reproduce for her. She was much bigger. But it went well, she loved it, but then proceeded to gain a lot of weight, so has never worn it out anywhere. Oh, well!

11:48 pm

oh bummer!

11:48 pm

eek! I have 14 words left!LOL

11:49 pm

rbud - I emailed my online quilt group, I don't remember how to join in (it's been about 8years, I think). Email me, and tomorrow I'll have the information for you.

11:49 pm

I made it so it had straps, or no straps, or a big white collar setup - interchangeable ... it was really 40's looking, I had fun.

11:51 pm

I made a pink bunnysuit in which my friend hitchhiked from New York to the Panama Canal and back to Texas...

11:51 pm

that dress sounds fun

11:51 pm

thanks, will get an email out after flip.

11:52 pm

hah, bunnysuit!

11:53 pm

m9, I am tryiing to finish, but saw your comment about the bunnysuit and can't stop laughing - just one question - boy bunny or girl bunny?

11:53 pm

never want to have to take a seam back out of velvet ever again, though, scary!! expensive velvet, too.

11:53 pm

OMGosh, I gave up tea for Lent, and I'm drinking coffee - I may not last... I won't drink tea, but I'll switch to beer or gin,

hi babbling bunnysuiters youre obviously having a good day
