12:59 am

:D

12:59 am

thanks ru

Haha jilli.

12:59 am

NBT at last!

1:00 am

haha, thought for a sec you meant she'd need a will if she flirted with neil... or maybe a pre-nup...

I have a couple of those jilli... your phantom.

1:00 am

wtg jilli

Huh?

Uhhh no, rbud. I'm happily spoken for. ;)

1:00 am

asthma, neil?

1:01 am

you must have missed the eyelash fluttering, neil? it was very fetching. ;p

Didn't miss it rbud... I laughed at it.

Yep Jilli. Doesn't affect me too often though.

1:03 am

<---felt the breeze

1:03 am

bummer, neil -- glad it's not often though.

Haha ru.

1:05 am

half way

Yeah. Well I have allergies... that goes with it for some people. It's an allergic response.

1:05 am

wtg jilli

1:05 am

have a friend on FB who flew last week from Norway to England, and now has an inner ear problem and (of course) bad balance - could that be allergy related, do you think? via the sinuses? just wondering.

1:06 am

what are you allergic to in LA concrete?

1:06 am

she said it happened last time she flew, too

Lots of things ru. The smog here hasn't helped too much at times. Dust mites, pollen, cats. There is plant life here you know.

1:08 am

where?

Wow rbud. I had a strange experience related to that as a kid one time.

Are you blind ru? :P

1:08 am

the only plants in LA are in pots..

1:08 am

or are pot

Excuse me a moment rbud. Showing ru a photo I took of my neighborhood so he can see plant life. :P

1:09 am

I saw LA once, from 75 miles east, saw the black cloud on the horizon, decided that was close enough, headed north.

1:09 am

:D

Right ru. We're all stoned... all the time.

1:09 am

I knew it

1:09 am

I see trees behind you in your icon, neil, heehee

1:10 am

yes.. I do too.. just beyond the armpit hair

1:10 am

:D

Here ru... taken from the corner of the closest main intersection. See the white apartment building in behind the In-N-Out? That's where we are: http://tinyurl.com/746zb82

1:11 am

oh, you a mean one, Mr. Ru... ;p

See plant life there?

*ignores ru's silly comments*

can i have clues for the 8 and 9 please for nbt and nbs

I guess you don't have armpit hair ru?

1:12 am

*withholds comment*

1:12 am

oooh, the infamous In-N-Out...

Ha.

1:13 am

to8/40, jenny -- don't have the 9 yet

Yep. That's the scene of the road raging incident.

1:13 am

wa 9/78

1:14 am

thanks for the 9

thankyou

1:15 am

no dart tonight... *evil laugh*

1:15 am

1:15 am

oh, dart probably came and went and finished in eight minutes, lol

1:15 am

thanks rbud

1:15 am

yw! :)

1:15 am

*withholds another rude comment*

1:16 am

tyvm rbud -- NBS now too

1:16 am

:PPPP

1:16 am

*sprinkles holy water on himself*

1:16 am

got the 9 from MLF, can't take credit

1:17 am

ahhh that MLF..

Adjust and polish up that fake halo while you're at it ru... it's pretty tarnished.

1:18 am

All this time I thought she liked hamburger.. and all along it's an old aging rock star

Huh?

1:18 am

Meat Loaf Fan

1:18 am

that's what the MLF means

Who is?

1:18 am

wh4, going to need to haul the fan in here now... getting muggy now the rain has stopped

1:19 am

Meat Loaf might be before your time neil.. sorry

"Gonna go all the way tonight..."

1:19 am

hey, Mr. Loaf sings opera, too, maybe that's the draw

Ha. Well remember... my dad's a p/t DJ. We grew up hearing everything.

Oh. Speaking of opera... I have clip for you to watch ru, so I'll email you the link.

1:20 am

I'm not fond of opera

ru... just check email. You'll see.

1:22 am

Neil -- send it to me, please!

I don't have your email address Erda?

Do I?

1:22 am

Yes you do

1:23 am

I have to go to sleep; see you all tomorrow!

Oh wait... maybe I do, yeah. Ugh. Erda?

You don't have the name "Erda" in it do you?

And I'm drawing a blank as to which contact in my address book is you now?

1:24 am

me too.. night all

Oh well.

1:31 am

Well, time to call it a day. Probably won't have time tomorrow -- busy day and then Happy Hour(s) at the neighbours'. Goodnight all and...*poof.

1:42 am

I'm off to bed too, will finish tomorrow

2:26 am

hello

hi and hi Ann Marie

aaahhh fell asleep over the keyboard and there were about 5064 a's in the add word box lol

2:42 am

hellooooo, how are we all? me? on top of the world, at least emotionally. have had my long service leave approved, so the 8 weeks i need for rehab. post-op will all be paid.

great news grannyrose

can you still go away for a while?

2:44 am

hey, van, still here? yes it is. was worried i wouldn't be able to make the mortgage payments whilst off work for so long

2:44 am

van, depends on my post-op physio schedule....am hoping for a few days at least while mother mac is in respite.

its not what you expected lsl to pay for but it must be a relief all the same

2:47 am

ah well, the government isn't satisfied with 42 years of taxes from me...they want another 5 years worth.

yeah its tough

2:51 am

and this decision was made by some twerp sitting in his posh office, with a lifetime pension of 250 grand....

perhaps, or he/she may in your boat too, just doing their job what the powers that be decide

2:52 am

like to see him do 10-12 hours constantly on his feet, literally controlling people's lives in his hands.

2:53 am

sorry, van...do i sound cross? or maybe this person is related to you? wouldn't like to hurt you or yours. but being me, i say it how i see it.

no I have no relative or even friend in there, but I have met a few govt workers who are doing it tough themselves

at least the wolves will away from the door for a while for you while you recover

2:55 am

the lower echelons, maybe, but the heirachy is certainly looking out for number one.

sure

2:56 am

true, van...and i should be thankful. *duly chastised*

lol we all need some cheering

2:57 am

thanx , hun. how's this grid treating you? or are you finished?

Another 40 to go but I'm too tired after the good lunch so I'll go for a walk and come back later

2:58 am

okay, enjoy the great outdoors. see you at the flip.

3:44 am

good morning, Babble friends

3:45 am

hi Sprite and all

3:46 am

hi lyn :) xxx

3:53 am

my son is 16 today! legal age in the netherlands for buying and consuming alcohol :( I hope we taught him common sense... and I hope he remembers at the right moments :)

3:57 am

gosh, that is so young. They were talking here about raising the drinking age from 18 as they believe it effects the still growing brain

3:58 am

but Happy Birthday to him!!

3:58 am

I couldn't agree more. I would say 21 was a good age. Well, we explained all about the growing brain etc to Tim... and he says he is going to be sensible about it. We will make sure he gets the right example, lol.

3:58 am

thank you!

4:15 am

I guess in-la4 is always with a dash.

8:19 am

<-- did not finish yesterday's grid at all. Had like 80 left. Hopes people still respect me.

8:21 am

So sorry, doing this on an iPad for the first and maybe the last time

8:22 am

i play babble on my asus tablet and it works amazing

8:23 am

i can scroll the grid,list and chog all seperatly

8:23 am

Maybe my fingers are too big

8:23 am

Ok I'll practice more

8:23 am

lol,takes time to get used to it hoilly,i am 6 foot 2 and 250 pounds and have bear paws for hands

8:24 am

Via, you do not lose respect by not finishing a grid. Many of us don't finish them.

8:24 am

and your browser choice is critical for proper babble enjoyment on a tablet

8:25 am

Hera

8:25 am

Ha ha, I tried that one too, Holly

8:25 am

Oh god did it again, going to find a real computer now

8:25 am

i have the native browser for babble and other flash games,i have google for office,surfing and downloadable games,and opera ofr music,and all video applications including netflix,hulu,you tube and wathing movies via a patch cord to my hadtv

8:26 am

b/c of my time constraints... i just care about getting nbt/nbs in as few words as possible..once i have that....any extra fine by me

8:26 am

That is true Molly... but I didn't even have a fake word of the day! Total babble fail day. :P

8:26 am

However, you did miss a rather fascinating conversation involving Soodle, pig races and nude/semi-nude sunbathing on a trampoline.

8:27 am

:'(

8:27 am

wait a minute... sunbathing while bouncing?

8:28 am

She claims she just lays out on the thing, but I have my suspicions.

8:29 am

hi all

8:29 am

help with the wa7/9 pls

8:29 am

howdy peri

8:29 am

howdy peri. you are almost in the grid today, but not quite.

8:29 am

i clued the 9 about 20 mins ago peri

8:29 am

:)

8:29 am

if I yell your name and draw it out: "peeee-ri!"

8:30 am

wa7...an arrest wa7...wa9...what you buy to protect a product

8:30 am

8:31 am

we have a big one coming in this afternoon carlee;)) thank god

8:31 am

8:31 am

No, it's an add on. Think of what you buy that protects your product for one year.

8:31 am

yes it is, got the wa9 ty

8:32 am

the person getting the wa7

8:32 am

isn't is usually spelled with a y at the end?

8:32 am

ok

8:32 am

that makes more sense, crossy

8:32 am

:)

8:32 am

the ground smells so nice with that smattering of rain... hmmmmmm

8:33 am

75 left, don't think this grid is as easy as some have said

8:33 am

i hope the rain just pounds down all afternoon here

8:33 am

<---Makes very little sense

8:33 am

finally saw One for the Money and was disappointd particularly in the casting

8:33 am

makes all kinds of sense

8:34 am

hel with corner i pls think it is an in7 but I do not see it

8:34 am

it is all good,we get by with a lil help from our babble friends

8:34 am

my right foot is still hurting :(

8:35 am

so is crossy,s:((

8:36 am

corner I - it is an in 7

8:36 am

What's wrong with your foot, Peri?

8:37 am

I fell off of a chair while adjusting an AC vent about a week and a half ago. went to doctor this past Monday. he did not see any fractures

8:37 am

it is particularly difficult going up and down steps

8:38 am

help with the in7 pls

8:38 am

I wonder if you tore soft tissue in it. That can be painful and takes a while to heal.

8:38 am

When someone leaves you something in their will, you in7 it.

8:41 am

ty for in7

8:42 am

he sad I had a contusion. rats, how long will it take. I even bought a cane (for $5 at goodwill) to keep the pressure off of that foot

8:42 am

thank goodness I did not break or twist my ankle

8:43 am

well I am going to get dressed and go to the market to pick up cat food and a few other things, bbl

8:43 am

Morning all

8:53 am

Good morning, Babblers!

8:59 am

Hi Judy

9:00 am

Hi All!!

9:00 am

good morning all

9:00 am

Hi Hego

9:00 am

Hi Teach

9:00 am

missed all of you.

9:00 am

Hi Teach

9:01 am

I assume you are well rested and well fed.

9:01 am

yup!! lol Molly

okay, I couldn't find the al 5, and noticed I was humming the song of the same name and was able to see it. weird.

9:02 am

ah, the subconscious.

9:02 am

Hokie, you Guides are at work. If you start thinking about six numbers, go play them.

9:03 am

Always listen to the voices in your head.

9:03 am

Even the ones that say "Lob hand grenades into your loud neighbor's yard?"

9:04 am

Okay, probably not those voices.

9:04 am

Rats

9:04 am

: )

9:05 am

I suppose it would be okay to lob rats into your neighbor's yard. They don't (usually) explode.

9:05 am

only if they're not looking.

9:06 am

The voices in my head want me to sing Drugstore

9:06 am

Hi Harp

9:07 am

Drugstore Cowboy...

9:07 am

Oh, that makes more sense

9:07 am

i am comfortable with my innder voicesas they often have good ideas

9:07 am

Crossy!!

9:08 am

I find my inner voices to be quite brilliant.

9:08 am

Mine are rather eccentric

9:09 am

and amusing

9:09 am

Sing, Jane, Sing!

9:09 am

The only problem is, they don't want to shut up when I'm trying to go to sleep.

9:09 am

Oh crap. Off to the PB I go.

9:09 am

ty judi

9:10 am

There is a holiday weekend keg in the PB, Judi.

9:10 am

*dons funnel hat and bellies up to the kegger"

9:11 am

How do I love Judi? Let me count the ways.

9:11 am

me too

9:12 am

Y'know what we need in the PB? A hookah.

9:12 am

OMG, I thought she said hooker.

9:12 am

Well, she did, in Jersey speak.

9:13 am

no, New York speak.

9:13 am

No no, hego!

9:13 am

Brooklyn most likely.

LOL, I was just talking about the voices in my head on the tennis court yesterday.

9:14 am

halfway - time to go pack the car and get on our way to a weekend of good music and funnel cakes

drool, funnel cakes

9:14 am

have fun Teach.

the hookah makes me think of that annoying Dish network commercial about The Hoppah.

9:15 am

I take it back. What we need in the PB is a middle-eastern communal smoking device.

9:15 am

oh, okay

9:16 am

* does keg stand just to show off *

9:17 am

Fun in the PB

9:17 am

*one-handed* !!

9:18 am

<-----very impressed

somebody was as**** at the Wh*** apparently.

9:19 am

Hi Kap

9:19 am

((hego)) nice to see you:))

hello everybody.

9:20 am

Crossy, I missed you!

9:20 am

howdy kap:))

9:20 am

aww,shucks...

9:20 am

Judi, it would be interesting to see the "stoned version" of certain people here. For instance, would all the gourmet food lovers suddenly bust into a conversation about how awesome Cheetos are?

what's new in Babylon?

9:21 am

Crossy, ty for all of your help in GOT.

I would think you were all making fun of me.

9:21 am

if you can stagger in at 3 am and eat process cheese sliced wrapped chicken weiners,then yer in the zone molly

9:21 am

Cool. I'd totally smoke some Cheetos.

9:21 am

np at all hego

9:22 am

Your efforts are appreciated, Cross.

9:22 am

*Makes notes: Kap gets paraoind when she's stoned.

9:22 am

Pass the Cheetos.

9:22 am

...in my hookah.

Yes I do. Or did.

9:22 am

hey man....pass that over...

Used to be a lotta hookahs on 8th avenue. Happy hookahs.

9:23 am

I remember that 8th Ave

9:24 am

We actually have a hookah bar in town. Anything goes in a college town.

9:24 am

crossy is pro-thc for medical usage

Xaviera Hollander, if I recall.

9:25 am

during my chemo i was perscribed marinol tablet to help with appetite

9:25 am

Did it help, Crossy?

marinol?

9:25 am

thc tablets

9:25 am

it did indeed

I am prescribed Damnitol.

9:26 am

Munchies!

9:26 am

as opposed to fuckitol kap?

9:26 am

<--plugs ears

9:26 am

From the makers of "Screwitol" and "Enditol".

9:26 am

but not too hard.

9:27 am

but in many cases thc can be the better choice compared to test tube chemicals

I once got yelled at for using that word i n th chog so I chose a less potent version

9:28 am

see some of those arthritis med side effects on the t.v ads?? omfg

I know- cymbalta. Imagine the day with less chronic arthritis pain. You may be dead.

9:28 am

pass the bong over anytime rather than that

But pain free.

9:28 am

<----Is willing to try it for her arthritis.

9:29 am

it works hego

9:29 am

I'll bet Crossy.

9:29 am

i have bursitis in my knees

So I would be pain free, but paranoid?

9:29 am

Yes. Cymbalta has some very scarey side affects. Surprised it got approved by the FDA with all those potential horrors.

Ellen Bursitis- good actress.

9:30 am

there is no parinoia feeling when it is legal meds kap

9:30 am

tried Cymbalta Kap. Had less pain, but could not stay awake.

9:30 am

good morning all

I'm not sure about that.

9:30 am

Hi Nan

9:30 am

but keep lots of diet snacks on hand!!

I have a new PT appointment this week. I am seeing a PT named Rob. I am picturing an very buff cabana boy.

9:31 am

I'm munchie anyway.

9:31 am

Hope so Kap.

I imagine it being a more thrilling experience than with the PT named Camille.

9:32 am

lol

I'm picturing he has pecs like a soap star

and those jeans that start below the pubic bone

9:33 am

last pt i had i got this gal named helga..her shoulders were wider than mine and she tossed me round the table like a bag of flour.."come here little man unt you vill haff your massage!"

9:33 am

last pe 6, please?

and tousled hair with a little bleach in it

I've been watching too much Days of Our Lives

9:34 am

kap, I hope you're not disappointed.

9:34 am

wanted to ask her what mustache wax she used,was very glossy and full...

9:34 am

lol crossy

I imagine I will be- but it's a nice thought

I feel like going back to bed to read.

9:36 am

sounds good

9:36 am

so many good books,so little time kap

9:37 am

I just got wind through the keyhole, Crossy.

9:38 am

very very good book hego if you are a dark tower fan

9:39 am

like slipping on a comfy pair of shes and sitting in your favorite chair once you turn the first page

9:39 am

Everyone says it's good.

9:39 am

shoes

9:39 am

Time for a coffee break. BBL. *Hookah Poof*

9:39 am

problem is that it is too short:( had it done by the end of the third sitting

9:40 am

Bye Judi

9:40 am

Rare for a King book.

9:41 am

need to do stuff. later gang.

9:41 am

i hope he does it this way again he calls this dark tower 3.5 as it fits in a pause for the characters in the main books

9:41 am

tc hego

9:43 am

for those who are fantasy book fanboys/fangirls the final tales of thomas covenant is also very good stephen r donaldson outdid himself,but his concordance must be a horror.be he winces every time he looks at it

10:12 am

10:14 am

10:14 am

yayay mix!!!

10:14 am

AA, TO?

10:15 am

I moved here 5 years ago after living in B-more for 10 years. The agent said I move a lot

10:15 am

I think 10 years is pretty long! it is a quarter of my life!

yes,kje. it was the on again off again and walking and standing that was bad. i got home at 1:40AM and too tired to go downtown today

10:17 am

I lived in B-more are 10 months. lived in the cincinnati area for 15 years.

10:18 am

ack! fb is down!

10:22 am

AA is HUGE here, they fill two and a half terminals... there are a lot of gates they can move you to

10:22 am

10:33 am

T.O my s.i.l is a nurse and says choose the pat down every time over the scanner.she says the airport x-ray machines use a "scatter" variety of x-rays that are strong and she wonders how often those machines are tuned up to ensure accuracy.a pat down is much better over new and interesting types of cancer down the road

10:33 am

thats the one. thank you

10:39 am

I would send Ru to the PB on a technicality, but there is a keg in there and he doesn't like beer.

10:40 am

10:42 am

10:59 am

I don't have it medusa

10:59 am

i'll look for it though

10:59 am

ok

11:03 am

Morning, all! Is this a friendly grid or a sneaky grid?

11:07 am

It's a friendly but sneaky grid. Hi Jan.

11:13 am

ir6/18 please

11:14 am

ir + not fake

11:14 am

thank you

11:17 am

I can't find the third ar 5/10 either

11:18 am

tricky little one eh?

11:18 am

My third is simple plural.

11:18 am

Hmm, I like ice cold beer. I like liquor too sometimes, but I'm not a hard core drinker.

11:18 am

oh.. i've entered them incorrectly

11:19 am

thanks vicuna

11:20 am

I hate it when there are three in a row

11:20 am

You're welcome.

11:20 am

**sneaks hugs to vi**

11:20 am

I'm confused about "entered them incorrectly". Don't you use the bulk add and paste? That enters them automatically.

11:20 am

Hello, stidmama!

11:21 am

hey all, up to 63 and stuck getting NBT. the i in the upper left corner and the E under the H please?

11:21 am

no.. I usually print the list and hand write them in

11:21 am

i cant do that at the moment!

11:21 am

in7 - get the rich uncle's money

11:21 am

ah, thanks vi -- something I never do!

11:22 am

ea4 - nobleman (and pl)

11:22 am

None of my uncles is rich. But I like them all enough not to wish them a speedy death anyway! =)

11:22 am

and thanks again! :-) how goes the print-making these days?

11:23 am

I am looking forward to being unemployed and having a few sunny days to get out my silk painting equipment... probably in July, from the look of the long-range forecasts

11:23 am

I've just had two big shows, so I got several new ones made. I'm on a kick of putting little villages in fantastical places: one is a town on the back of a giant sea turtle, and one is a city under a steam-powered airship.

11:24 am

that sounds fun! are there pics online yet?

11:24 am

Do you get the long weekend as a foretaste of summer?

11:24 am

Yep... hang on...

11:25 am

Here: http://nydamprints.com/aspidochelone.h tml and here: http://nydamprints.com/skycity.html

11:25 am

stidmama i am in the ranks of the semi-retired now and it is perfect! enough work to keep me occupied and out of my beloveds hair 2-3 times a week,but lots of new free time to dive back into hobbies etc

11:25 am

not likely warm or sunny though... hoping to get some straightenin done this weekend -- had a migraine most of the week so even today I am going pretty slow.

11:26 am

sounds wonderful, dear cross! It's like my schedule, only I really would like to have work nearly every day... we could use the money.

11:26 am

Sounds perfect, crosshair. Stidmama, no fun on the migraine. No fun on the housework either, except that much as I hate housework, I do like doing my projects better when I've cleared the decks first.

11:27 am

vi, they are PERFECT! I so love your work.

11:27 am

Thanks! *beaming* I had a lot of fun with them.

11:28 am

I can't even find my decks at the moment!!! the dining room table where I have my paper cutting materials is surrounded by boxes, the office where I do my painting is filled with boxes... *sigh* and my silk materials are somewhere in the storage locker.

11:28 am

love your work vicuna,i think you would excell at recreating old world style maps

11:29 am

Yeah, I'm sorry to have to say it sounds like time to find those decks. =P

11:29 am

my goal is to get my clothes sorted out this weekend, put the winter gear away and find the cool weather gear; sweep all the floors and mop; if it's dry enough weed the garden a little; and maybe get out to see the Avengers for an early show.

11:29 am

cartography styles from the early 1800,s and before

11:30 am

then once school is out I can shovel the boxes outside for sorting and have space to work again.

11:30 am

Thanks, crosshair. I do love old maps. But I wouldn't want to recreate them... I'd want to do something different with them! The towns on those two pieces are inspired by the little city views in the Nuremberg Chronicle.

11:31 am

Sounds like a plan, stidmama. (Albeit an exhausting one.) My big chore for the weekend is the garden. Puttering about in the garden isn't a chore, but clearing out a veritable Amazonian jungle of weeds so I can plant veggies... that'll be a chore.

11:32 am

i do not mean exactly,i mean fantasy or artistc maps from your own mind

vi!

11:32 am

oe

11:33 am

:-) that's where having teens is (almost) worth it. Get their friends in your debt for rides or a movie, and they will work for an hour or so, shaming your own kids into working... and the competition means it gets done even faster!

11:33 am

hey TO!

11:33 am

aloha, flosey!

11:33 am

Hello, TO! How have you been?

11:33 am

good morning everyone, did it again

fine, and you? hi stid!

11:33 am

you would also do well as a fantasy/sf map ilistrator for books:)

11:33 am

Hello, flosey. "oe" to you, too. =D

11:33 am

lol, thanks Vicuna

hello flo

11:34 am

Yes, I've done a number of maps and illustrations, but mostly just for my own books.

11:34 am

howdy flosey

11:34 am

which books, I believe, should be in every school library... they are marvelous!

vi, have alink?

11:36 am

*beaming even more* Aww, stidmama, you're lovely. As a matter of fact, I spent the morning at the school library and it's always very ego-enhancing to see that there's a steady demand for my books there. But 99.9999% of school libraries don't have them, of course.

11:37 am

what kind of books vic,and what genre?

11:37 am

A link to what, TO? Here's the link to "everything" Vicuna. You can take it from there! http://nydamprints.com/index.ht ml

11:37 am

That's because we just don't have the word out yet... we'll get there. I would love to have a classroom of my own, and invite you out for an author visit/workshop... but first I need the classroom

11:37 am

Go there, click on the "books" icon, and you'll get your answer, crossy.

11:37 am

will do

11:38 am

You need a classroom and I need an airplane! But boy would I love to! =)

11:38 am

ahh books for young children,very nice:)

11:39 am

the Otherworld series is a young adult series, cross. Great for middle-level readers who like fantasy!

11:39 am

Actually a range. (as stidmama beat me to saying.)

11:39 am

giving a child the gift of books if giving them the world:)

11:39 am

11:40 am

Many worlds, really! =)

Thanks, crosshair. I did all the art, design, etc.

11:42 am

I am down to 44 and want to get up and get dressed. Have some heavy-duty tasks today and shouldn't put them off any longer. (((many hugs))) vi, when we are rich, we'll host storytelling/book making workshops on both coasts and in the middle... like ping does in Houston!

11:42 am

((stidmama))

does it go that far back? I can't remember his era

12:53 pm

At least twenty plus years. My older two are in their early thirties and they watched him as kids.

12:55 pm

The thing is, he has maintained an "image" in the news and as far as I know, is internationally known. So it's not "one of those American things" as is usually stated here.

1:02 pm

wow, thanks Molly (had to take a call)

1:02 pm

his movie was out in the 1980s. his show on cbs late 80s/early 90s

Good, been away, good to be back.

3:17 pm

Husbands uncle had a stroke.

3:27 pm

nothing,just crossy being strange

3:27 pm

nm, got it.

3:28 pm

we are to8 of Crossy, always. lol

3:28 pm

well ty:)

3:28 pm

Alas, we live in the world of instant gratification

as is my mrs

3:29 pm

yukka yukka

3:29 pm

ahh molly,that was so 8 seconds ago:)

3:29 pm

must keep up

3:30 pm

oh toothpick update: foot has swollen on bottom.going to clinic in hour to get it dug out of my foot

3:30 pm

I really, really don't like those 4G commercials with the neighbors in the yard on their 4G phones. Really.

3:30 pm

it is annoying is it not?

3:31 pm

why does Crossy have a toothpick in his foot?

pe633?

3:31 pm

though mrs and i love the allstate insurance commercials with that mayhem fella

3:31 pm

Has no one told him where to use them?

3:31 pm

i stepped on it hego

3:32 pm

The foot probably needs to be lanced in order for someone to get a good grip on the toothpick. I'm sure it will feel much better when it's all taken care of.

3:32 pm

pe6/33...Mr. Herman, comic

3:32 pm

thought so. don't keep them on the floor anymore.

3:32 pm

some kind soul dumped it on the carpet,where it lodged like a spear in the carpet nap awaiting crossy

ty

3:32 pm

Poor Crossy. : (

3:32 pm

i hope so molly

3:33 pm

me too

3:33 pm

We need a group foot healing ceremony here. Peri is having foot troubles too.

3:33 pm

brb

3:33 pm

"lancing and a stich or 2 cannot hurt more than it does now at any rate

3:34 pm

poor peri:((

3:34 pm

Just make sure they give you a healthy shot of lidocaine before they lance it.

3:34 pm

one of our u.k babblers who name escapes me atm also injured her foot

3:35 pm

well,they are going to numb it with something,thats for d***d sure

3:35 pm

they will

3:36 pm

Some doctors are evil and think you should just suck it up for something like that. I always suggest people DEMAND.

3:36 pm

i will suck it upif he sucks it up while i do the same to him

3:36 pm

never heard of such a thing. that's awful

3:37 pm

they have to be reminded sometimes that we are not breathing pieces of meat

3:37 pm

I had a doctor try to relocate my son's badly dislocated foot before the morphine drip kicked in. He got an earful from me about that.

3:37 pm

i know all about patient transferrance but remember we feel pain

3:37 pm

silly fool

3:37 pm

poor boy:(

3:38 pm

As it turned out, when the orthopedist got there, he knocked my son out to relocate it. So much for the knowledge of the Doogie Houser ER doctor.

3:39 pm

you probably knew the second you saw the first doc,he was not the right one

3:40 pm

what scares me now as i get older are docs that look like they shave once a month.had a doc look at something last month,he came in and i said "hello son" is you dad coming to see me soon?"

3:41 pm

very funny

3:41 pm

only to find out he graduated university at 17 and wrote 3 books on my problem lol

3:42 pm

some are very smart, but nothing replaces experince.

3:42 pm

he just keeps adding degrees to keep himself busy diring coffee breaks

3:43 pm

I agree Hego. Book smart is never as good as experience.

3:43 pm

indeed hego

3:54 pm

Hello all...it's FRIDAY!!

3:55 pm

Hi Jilli

4:00 pm

what are you drinking Molls?

4:01 pm

LOL peri, it's anything one has on Friday!!

4:01 pm

Beer, Peri. It's already been made fun of here, but that is my drink of choice.

4:01 pm

I am not a big drinker cause alcohol does not affect me like it did when I was younger. (or is it effect)

4:02 pm

I like a gin and tonic or vodka and tonic but I don't get a buzz like I used to, just get tired

4:03 pm

Love beer and G&Ts...

4:04 pm

i don't drink but my supermarket sells pina colada, margarita and some other cocktail flavored jello

4:04 pm

i passed and simply got the artificially flavored cherry and lime jellos

4:04 pm

i'm old-fashioned.

4:05 pm

I love to read your profile, mab.

4:06 pm

thanks. i just smashed together a couple of lines of dialogue from movies, but they more or less fit me

4:07 pm

always makes me chuckle, mab

4:07 pm

Man, wish I'd known about alchohol flavored jellos...would have been a treat for my colonoscopy prep last weekend!

4:08 pm

colonoscopy; oh boy.

4:08 pm

i've been putting that off for years

4:09 pm

Well, I am a nurse in that department...figured since I was 4 years past my 50 year old screening that I should get er done!

4:10 pm

80% of colon cancers can be caught through screenings.... *nudges mab*

4:10 pm

my best friend, reg, says 'get 'er done.' cute.

4:11 pm

FW, now off to play morewords

4:11 pm

I loved the CARS movie..Tater said it...

4:12 pm

4:13 pm

Do you live in a small or large city mab?

4:13 pm

4:14 pm

i'm stranded in a dumpy small town in western new england.

4:14 pm

no james herriot shire for you mab?

4:14 pm

ahh new england sorry

4:15 pm

actually, i recently learned i have an outrageously large amount of arsenic in my body

4:15 pm

cool,a poison woman:)

4:15 pm

one of my british neighbors here is a james herriot nut.

4:15 pm

LOL...our son lives in Millville...small burg in eastern Mass..

4:15 pm

crossy has met some in the past before elegant

4:16 pm

Did you grow up near a mining town?

4:16 pm

no

4:16 pm

even with my beloved,there are some days that you best check for any open cuts or sores before wading in:)

4:17 pm

this is a new thing. a few years ago i was filled with methyl mercury, which is why i was tested for heavy metals again recently

4:17 pm

good lord!! check yer plumbing in the house mab!

4:17 pm

i think it's the house. i think the house is poisonous

4:18 pm

and stop eating thermometers

4:18 pm

hell house of new england!!..mwahahaha

4:18 pm

i'm probably a goner. or maybe i'll develop a super power. either way

4:19 pm

now a super power would be nice

4:19 pm

I believe much of our ground, especially near industrial or mining areas, are full of heavy metals

4:19 pm

MAB the MAGNIFICENT!!

4:20 pm

it's an old house that's been converted into apartments. every year, it seems, a new insect invades. first year wasps, then moths, then tiny black beetles, etc.

4:20 pm

i am sure you are correct jilly.we recently(10 years ago) had our old shipyard properties gutted and everything toxic removed..it was frightening what was buried in the ground

4:21 pm

the mercury was almost certainly from eating too much fish.

4:21 pm

Sounds like Biblical plagues. Be on the lookout for the four horsemen.

4:21 pm

it cost tens of millions for the clean up,but we passed the epa testing and are happy with the outcome

4:22 pm

where do you catch yer fish mab??

4:22 pm

those tins of white tuna shouldn't even be on the shelves. and of course, no fresh tuna, swordfish, etc

4:22 pm

if it is in iffy area,remove and dispose of all belly meat keeping only the sides of the fillets

4:22 pm

yes, i feel a little like job sometimes

4:23 pm

crossy does not eat canned fish

4:24 pm

well all have those decades mab

4:24 pm

mine was 2000-2010

4:24 pm

one just must avoid large fish that have live in our sadly polluted oceans for many years before being murdered for our benefit. every knows that now, but years ago i hadn't a clue

4:25 pm

anyways,time to get this foot carved open.biab

4:25 pm

poink!

4:25 pm

foot carved?

4:26 pm

my docs must think i swallow batteres

4:29 pm

Oh no crossy...sorry about that...

4:31 pm

He's got a half a splinter stuck in his foot.

4:32 pm

Yep, I know...he was seeking medical advice a few days ago...both Jes and I figured it'd end up needing to be incised out...just another reminder not to go barefoot...

4:33 pm

Well, I'm doomed then. But I only go barefoot in the house. And we don't keep our toothpicks on the floor. : D

4:34 pm

LOL...one never knows...

4:36 pm

Barefoot in the house was much more dangerous when my kids were small.

4:37 pm

Legos....OUCH!! I remember it well...

4:37 pm

They were pretty good about putting their toys away, but there was inevitably the stray Lego block that was forgotten that found my foot.

4:37 pm

at npr.org there are images of wine and beer dried on slides and viewed through a microscope. an arizona artist...

4:39 pm

We actually have a level 4 NIH here in our little MT town, they are presenting an art exhibit with colored pictures from the photon microscope...really pretty

4:40 pm

interesting. these images are pretty too.

4:41 pm

Life is quite amazing really....

4:42 pm

And so much of that goes right over the heads of most people.

4:43 pm

this artist, who is also a bartender, has made images of other beverages as well. coca cola is my beverage of choice.

4:44 pm

Yep, it's nice to see science bringing that out for hte public...

4:45 pm

also on npr: a man with asperger's has made a film about it.

4:46 pm

Our youngest son was in a relationship with a young man with asperger's...I learned a lot.

4:47 pm

people can be so interesting and lovely if they are allowed to be themselves

4:47 pm

Amen Mab

4:48 pm

conformity is over rated hugely

4:48 pm

Unfortunatly, way too often bullied... :(

4:49 pm

We need to be more to8/40 ..

4:50 pm

Did you all read the story about the woman who was bullied in grade school and posted a poem about that right before her class reunion? It was very sad.

4:57 pm

I didn't see that one ..

4:57 pm

i didn't see that. does sound sad. i'm a bit of an outlier myself

4:59 pm

Kids can be very cruel, and unfortunately, that hasn't changed much.

5:01 pm

the callousness of children must be advantageous in an evolutionary way.

5:01 pm

Just finished an unsuccessful attempt to get our local school board to add sexual preference to their anti-bullying policy :(

5:01 pm

Wow Jilly, that is unfortunate.

5:19 pm

What on Earth made you think I was African American?

5:20 pm

ralph ellison quote

5:20 pm

like i said, too literal

5:21 pm

me, not the quote

5:21 pm

Um, yeah. I don't think everyone who reads, likes and quotes Ellison is African American.

5:21 pm

the quote's great

5:21 pm

right

5:22 pm

sometimes people on line think i'm african american....

5:23 pm

Likewise, not everyone who feels invisible is African American. That feeling crosses race, gender and religion.

5:24 pm

i know. i didn't mean at all to irritate

5:24 pm

You didn't. You know I love you, Queen Mab.

5:25 pm

aww... same here molls

but then, bush, cheney, et.al didn't end up in the hague

5:30 pm

too bad cheney didn't have his heart back then

5:30 pm

It's "enhanced" pet care

5:31 pm

funny.

5:32 pm

And then, in the future when you or someone else finds the key, you can say that the waterboarding worked ..

5:32 pm

he's such a silly, dopy cat, he probably doesn't recall what he did with it. i can relate

5:33 pm

that too is funny, but isn't it the truth? Bush had a brutalizing affect on our culture

wow, this chog entered controversial waters!

Waterboarding- what a lovely sport.

5:34 pm

it's pinky's fault

5:34 pm

or torgone's... not sure

5:35 pm

anyway, the only thing restraining me is the threat of being brought up on charges of crimes against felinity

5:36 pm

good shabbos, kap. love your jack benny

5:37 pm

wow, step out for a moment....quite a chat now!!

5:37 pm

torgone started it

5:38 pm

I probably don't want to know, but how does a cat get a hold of one's mailbox key?

5:38 pm

it was on a coffee table and therefore became a toy

5:39 pm

thereby, rather

5:40 pm

at least i think that's the world courts view of things

5:40 pm

Oh, this is a free range cat like my kids cat. They look at me funny when I don't understand why the cat is allowed on the dining room table.

5:41 pm

i have no control over these cats.

5:42 pm

i try to be authoritative. if cats could laugh out loud it would be pretty jolly around here

5:44 pm

hey all, down to 44 earlier, determined to get down to at least 30 today.

5:44 pm

One of my cats does smile mab...

5:44 pm

hi stid! ((hugs))

5:44 pm

however, today I purchased an ottoman at our used furniture store that used to live in the used bookstore. not one claw touches it or, or, i don't know. hi stid.

5:45 pm

You do have scratching posts right mab?

5:45 pm

hey jilly

5:46 pm

I would think that cats are not fully compatible with nice furniture unless they are declawed, but I don't know a lot about cats.

5:46 pm

my cats don't distinguish. i'm not much of a disciplinarian with them.

5:47 pm

i once spritzed pinky and he actually flinched. i felt so cruel.

Good Afternoon!

5:47 pm

hey red! how are you doing? weekend already?

5:48 pm

Luckily, mine do, a have 4 of them placed around to encourage NOT to use the furniture...

5:48 pm

well the ottoman is more of a sentimental thing. i used to sit on it a lot in the used bookstore. but it is covered in red suede.

5:48 pm

Oh, I watergun mine from time to time...hmmm...is that waterboarding for cats?

5:49 pm

yeah, that's what I mean by 'spritz'

5:49 pm

Well, don't ask about my leather couch.....a few reminders they like to perch on it...

5:49 pm

miep finds it amusing, pinky is horrified

5:49 pm

How else do cats learn where they can and cannot be? I don't think spritzing them is cruel. It beats having their litter box feet on eating surfaces.

I am glad for weekend! I also got to observe a gopher turtle today. Made my day.

I do love cats and I think my next dog will be a cat.

5:50 pm

gopher turtle? a burrowing critter I suppose... *runs off to look it up*

5:50 pm

oh molls. if you'd seen pinky's little face... his eyes squinched....

They are super cool stid, and live forever.

I agree with molly, spritzing...well...its unpleasant..but fairly painless!

5:51 pm

what is a gopher turtle like?

5:51 pm

wow, those are AMAZING animals!!

5:51 pm

I love turtles. They are one of my totem animals.

5:51 pm

and very effective....

5:51 pm

he squinted and flinched! you can tell me that wouldn't have broken your heart.

The one I saw was pretty small. drove the dog nuts.

5:52 pm

Well, not so much...do you have kids mab?

5:53 pm

no. i don't care much for children. it depends.

5:54 pm

Well, similar to disciplining my kids...there are rules and consequences for breaking the...Never have swatted my four legged kids though....

5:54 pm

LOL mab! a wise woman, you are!

Still, I rarely see them, so I was excited.

5:55 pm

i like specific children. some of them.

5:56 pm

is it a mammal or a reptile?

5:56 pm

I am so glad you had that experience, red -- we don't have many turtles around here, I think it's usually too cold for them.

5:56 pm

it's a tortoise, mab, an ancient land tortoise and one of the few that burrows

it is a turtle, with that has these digging like feet.

They grow very big. The first one I saw was in front of a nature center and huge and so still I thought it was plastic. then it moved..

5:57 pm

cool

5:57 pm

well, have only 50 left and dinner must be made...bbl *poof*

5:58 pm

i like turtles as well. i love the idea of carrying one's home around on one's back. you get sleepy? you just tuck in.

They are neat creatures. I do like cats as well though.

5:59 pm

I took some great photographs of snapping turtles mating. That is a loud and splashy affair.

6:00 pm

oh my, molly! that would be interesting...

6:00 pm

oh, tortoises. remember years ago in england, there was an old soldier who brought home a tortoise from gallipolli. i thnk it out lived him

6:01 pm

tortoises are amazingly long-lived creatures. If they survive being born...

6:02 pm

oh! met my goal -- down to 30. off to check job boards and back in a few. (((hugs))) it's sunny here, will be out in the garden later! *poof*

6:02 pm

yes, i worry about sea turtles.

6:03 pm

tortoises, however, make rather difficult pets due to all that earthmoving

6:03 pm

bye!

6:05 pm

talking too much. must take break and get grip.

nope you arent talking too much mab, I was just off checking some things. Holiday weekends make me nervous.

Work and no one being there to make things happen regularly you know.

6:24 pm

What years Dawg?

8:46 pm

1980-93, Jilly in student support services under student affairs

8:46 pm

Gallatin area is gorgeous. We have awesome views where we live, but I love that area over near Livingston and Bozeman. Just couldn't afford it!

8:46 pm

8:51 pm

I think it was Harrisville.

8:51 pm

That's true, Jilly.

8:51 pm

8:53 pm

Thanks much, dosef and Jillyjill.

8:54 pm

I'm starting to wonder if I'll be able to stay out here, though. Our youngest, back in Michigan, is expecting her first baby in August. It's a girl!!

8:54 pm

Yep, gotta LIVE in the good weather months!!

8:54 pm

For sure I will be there in June for her shower, in August for her birth, and then again in November for another visit.

8:54 pm

down to the I and the N

8:55 pm

I don't have grandkids :'( But can only imagine it'd be a bigger draw than a mountain!

8:55 pm

brb

8:55 pm

What kind of crafts do you do, Yarn Lady. I guess it is probably obvious, right? Knitting and crocheting things?

8:56 pm

congrats on grandmahood trentsnanna. it won't be too far to travel

8:56 pm

Fire Words!

8:56 pm

Yes, we may have to rethink this living situation. Maybe move back to Michigan, but come back out here for lots of visits. We've made some great friends out here and it would be tough to leave here - just like it was tough to leave Michigan. I just wish I could pick up the whole state and put it where Wisconsin or Ohio is. Hahaha

8:56 pm

congrats on the upcoming grandbaby! they are wonderful to have...and send home! ♥

8:57 pm

whoooo hooooo DR!!!

8:57 pm

I'm actually a spinner of yarn, dye some of my own wool to spin, a little knitting of felted hats and have just added making soy candles to my inventory

8:57 pm

Thanks, yarn lady. We have a grandson who is 13, but this is our BABY having a baby. And it's a girl, so that makes it fun, too. Our grandson comes out and visits us in the summer. Don't know how much longer he'll do that, though, now that he's a teenager!

8:58 pm

So, it's been a long time in between babies.

8:58 pm

hi everyone

8:58 pm

oh I bet your grandson will be devestated if you leave montana.

8:58 pm

Hi Jen

8:58 pm

Wow - you do a lot of neat things, yarn lady. I just made my first quilt for this baby. It turned out pretty good. I'm proud of it and can't wait to give it to my daughter.

8:59 pm

He does love coming out here.

8:59 pm

We have horses, so he loves to come out and ride.

8:59 pm

hi Jen

8:59 pm

9:00 pm

8 is to8/40...means to accept people without judgement

9:23 pm

10:31 pm

I was al5/10 for most of the day today so I as able to Babble in peace. Now I am done with the grid so here is a story of clues. Soon after I moved into my house on Leo La4/4, I developed allergies. I live in an ar4/4 where I suffer from outdoor allergies. I am allergic to everything from the la4/8 in my yard to the trees ne 4/4 my house.So I have to stay pe4/5 up in my house all day until it is safe for me to go outside.Don't know how I got allergies. I did not in7/32 allergies from my parents. Allergies make it very difficult for me to fall as6/21. When I finally do get to sl 5/12, I wake up in the middle of the night coughing. I have not sl 5/12 a full 8 hours since getting my allergies.My eyes also te 4/4 up and start burning and itching. It looks like I'm we 45/9ing most of the time, but I honestly have not we 4/9 in a long time. Unfortunately, there's nothing to he 4/5 my allergies. I have to let it run its course. My husband isn't very to8/40 of my allergies. He gets re4/4ly annoyed with me coughing all the time.Hubby makes me goto bed in a different room since he can't sl 5/12 with me constantly blowing my nose. I'm so ti 4/4d of allergies. I wish there was some special drug for sa 4/4 that would permanently get rid of them. I he 4/5 my hubby getting restless as he waits for the computer. If I do not give it to him, he will ra4/4 and rave and cause a ri4/4&start yelling at me in a nasty to 4/4. I am going to get off my re 4/4 and go watch My Name is Ea 4/4. Goodnight to all! I'll see you later.

10:36 pm

20 now, and listable... (((Min))) I have suffered from various allergies all my life. NOT fun. I did get MUCH better from the respiratory ones when I discovered the many food allergies. It is possible you have something like that, and finding the food trigger would make you feel much better.

10:36 pm

stats for the fourth row E please

10:36 pm

Oh yes they are! Get them every single year with full force! I take 4 allergy shots a week, plus I take a pill.

10:37 pm

10:37 pm

ouch, min. *shudder* poor dear Min.

10:38 pm

I actually don't have food allergies. I have indoor and outdoor allergies. Basically, I am allergic to any living thing that is not human. I am even allergic to my dog.
