And that makes any new ones download.
ol
that was supposed to be hi all.... guess I am more sleepy than I thought
Hi DR!
ergeoh very1
Haha ru... hi. :)
HI Neil! I got your message a while ago.. just have not been around
Was wondering if you were ok.
My message, DR?
Oh... was that on Goodreads? Yeah.
Was having issues at work but am good now
YEs Neil!
went to do as you said, neil, and as i was checking in came your email. lol. almost psychic
Oh. Sorry to hear about the issues and glad you're good now.
granny.. did you have your surgery?
Ha, Rose.
Not yet ru.
Switched bosses - it is much better thanks
When is it Rose?
in 16 days ruru.
Oh good, DR.
oh.. i'll come to the hospital and have drugs with you
that might cost extra Ruru
Hey Rose, did I tell you? My g/f got a job in a hotel and she's been working for a little while now... and I've done a couple shoots and have more coming up this month. So things are starting to look up.
Hey ru? Check my updates for today on profile.
ok
Think I could have a career as a mechanic? :P
awesome Neil!
and the good news is, my bro' was in as a patient yesterday. he's the computer guru. ( have lost count of the number of languages he knows) and he told me that the wifi setup, only has limited number of addresses, which apparently the construction workers all log into during the day, but once they logoff for the day,,then i should be able to use the wifi with my laptop.
yay neil, that is fantastic news.
good for you Neil!
lol, ruru, i'm not sharing with no-one. they're all mine!!!!
LOL Granny!
oh sure.. see how you are
Thanks, Karen and DR. :)
I was willing to share the pain.. :)
Did you see the photo linked to there ru?
rofl, no you weren't. you said you wouldn't have the surgery for me.
no.. i read the posts though
oh.. you're right granny
you said i could have it all on my own.;P
What kind is it? I have missed this storyline
dr, neil or me?
sorry- you granny
Well gee ru... you're supposed to see the pic. :P
http://tinyurl.com/NJL-DIY062012
dr, having a total knee replacement in 16 days. my buddies here are trying to keep my mind off that fa4.
oh! ok !! I broke my patella 18 yrs ago but they did not replace it
I will keep you in my thoughts
ouch, dr. now that's nasty.
and yes, I held together pretty much with wires, screws and duct tape :)
I tripped over a dog
and if anyone here has some pull with Stryker ( company making my knee prosthesis) just tell them what a lovely person i am, and i would really appreciate their best efforts.
are you talking about the dent photo?
Yep, ru.
And no. She isn't a bad driver... that dent was there when we bought the car.
oh ok.. I saw that.. what's up with that?
Oh well... used car you know?
mrs. ru loves to hit shit all the time too
Haha. Well she doesn't. It was already dented when we bought it. But her driving style and mine are, well... let's say completely different. That's one of the few things we do fight about. :P
That and cooking.
LOL.. she always complains about my driving.. I pointed out all the dents in her car.. and zero in mine
..and your driving style
She's a wonderful cook... baker, etc. And I'm not so much into baking but I consider myself a good cook too. And she agrees... says I'm great. But she has to hover around when I'm making a meal and she's like... "are you SURE you want to use that/do it THAT way?" Ugh. :P Just leave me to it!
is...?
Oh I meant the difference in our driving styles there. Wasn't picking on hers.
hey.. if you are taking the initiative to cook.. tell her to back off..lol
I made lamb chops tonight.. yummy
Oh sorry. My style? Well I'm a more confident driver than she is and well... a little more assertive, shall we say? lol
my hubby has free reign of the kitchen... more power to him I say
Haha. That would go over well.
Bet that was good ru... what did you have with them?
down to my last word
mrs ru hasn't cooked in 15 years
I like it that way
Wow really? Nothing at all?
Yay DR. Then maybe you can answer that message I sent you on Goodreads that I'd totally forgotten about, haha.
I got fresh armenian cukes and tomatoes at the farmer's market and made basil/mozerella/tomato cuke salad with a mustard vinaigrette and carmelized root veggies with balsamic dressing and spring garlic
Oh wow. That sounds delish ru.
Are you for hire?
Not like we could afford you as our personal chef!
and grilled lamb chops with basil pesto
lol- ok Neil- I will do that!
Hell. We don't even have a dishwasher.
nope.. I ain't cheap
Yeah... sounds scrumptious ru.
I bet not.
it was yummy
I have been... but I'm a good boy now. lol
lol
cheap doesn't relate to easy ya know
Ha.
I need to find some Aspirin or something for this annoying headache I have. Ugh. brb
don't you guys know i am dieting .....and all you are talking about is food...waaahhhhh not fair!
it's a diet dinner granny.. very low cal
i actually get to eat red meat tonight....with salad. but whatever works, right?
fortunately i can't smell your dinner, ruru. otherwise i would have been licking the screen
no wonder my screen is so blurry
I thought Mick Jagger was skype-ing me
lol
lol, ruru, no that's my heavy breathing, trying not to lick the screen
ROFL
ROFL
control, rose, it's all about control.
I grill Colorado Lamb (small loin chops over sprigs of rosemary (high heat) quickly and season lightly.. the rosemary adds plenty of flavor without salt

wheeeeeee!!!! gl all// bedtime for me, work in the a.m

hi grannyrose and jillibus :)
:D

hi sarah.. I think one of your daughters was on the other day a lovely girl.. very polite
Hi Sarah.
Nope I'm here ru. Can't lose me that easily.
Nope I'm here ru. Can't lose me that easily.
yes it was rosie my 13 year old :)
yes it was rosie my 13 year old :)
Haha. Duplicate messages.
The hiccup just happened.
nice kid..
lol lappy playing up today lol :)
okay.. I'm off to go read..I hope you feel better neil
jIlli take some aspirin.. you'll need it
night, ruru.sleep well mate
thanks a lot granny.. take care I hope you feel better too
neil did you see my post re heat or cold packs? would they help?
i so understand your pain.. I had to sit down for a while on my walk today
Sorry no, Rose. Missed that... I was on IM with AzRobin for a few minutes there.
Sorry you're in so much pain... Rose and ru. :(
thanx, ruru. i realise you appreciate what i am going through.
and you too, neil. i know you understand.
Well not from experience but I think I can imagine being in horrible pain Rose. I've had some in my life... thankfully nothing that has lasted.
I have had a little trouble with lower back pain.
But that's better now... I have an amazing new favorite apparatus to help with that.
you'll find this amusing, neil. the DVD from Stryker suggests that i do my exercises 5 times per day. i work 4. 2 others i am catching up on housework/shopping. just when am i supposed to fit these exercises in? in my sleep?
http://tinyurl.com/NL-Inversion
neil, would that be a TENS machine?
I have no idea Rose.
Nope. Check the link I just gave you.
And click on the image to enlarge it once it loads.
ok, brb
And yes... that's me on it. You'll probably recognize that t-shirt. Wore it in the Occupy LA video.
This is the one: http://tinyurl.com/NL-OLA
got it, looks interesting...a variation of traction therapy once used in the acute phase of lower back injury.
Yes. It does alleviate pressure on the discs... stretches out the spine.
I was trying it out in that photo in a studio.
Liked it so much I came home with one.
neil, i really think you need to go with the designer-stubble. it would look so great on you!!!!! but then i don't have to kiss you...maybe elisse might like some input. lol
Haha. Yuck... I don't really like it but it grows in so fast on me and shaving is such a pain.
And no. It's not "designer" anything. :P
okay, chog has died, and i have 5 surveys to respond to.
awww, neil, it is so cool
Yeah. And as soon as I'm done with this tea, I'm heading to bed.
What's cool about it? Ugh.
lol, okay, mate, will say good-night then. sleep well, buddy.see you at the flip
You too Rose. Take care!
neil, it's a matter of getting used to it, i guess. my youngest sports the designer stubble, and he looks great.
night...* poof *
oh my, I greyed out the first column! Good morning

your local chemist/pharmacist should be able to help you, there
grannies are always good, they seem to know so much. :)

LOL..and we had a car alarm going off every 5 minutes all night long
good morning!

((Mom)) good morning!
good morning Mixi

morning fellow babble insomniacs ( or other sleep deprived issues )
Good morning ((Carlee))
Hi carlee :)
{{mom}}
Sweetie will play with her this morning while I am at the library
Quilting today?
I love all the words I am getting with the ptor ending
that's how I got most of my sixes
no quilting today. It is National Knit In Public Day. So I will be crocheting. Then we have a pot luck lunch
sounds nice..have a good time
carlee, how is school? Oh dammm, there goes the car alarm again...it was on and off all night
I would rather stay here with Annie but I had already signed up and was asked to bring my Crunchy Macaroni Salad.
Ooo, Mom, what makes it crunch?
I am surprised that someone hasn't taken care of that alarm, Annie
It is parked in the street...my neighbor called the police and they said they could not do anything
really? couldn't they just shoot it? :-)
good morning Molly, I am guessing it is the celery
I would love to know what car it is.
gm, everyone! stats for the E in the 5th column plz?
what do you put in your Mac Salad?
good morning ((LBD))
eg 4/6
celery, onion, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, tomatoes, miracle whip,

gm (((MOM))), ty Annie got the both!
gm (((MOM))), ty Annie got the both!
excuse the burp! *blush* nbt, nbs 14 left
hi dawg, glad you did
it is for 2 people so how ever much macaroni I cook I multiply the ingredients by how many cups of macaroni I have.
Mom, I just wrote down the ingredients for your macaroni salad because I am not too crazy about mine...thanks
I will email you the recipe, Annie, it is really simple
thanks, Mom
The macaroni salad you buy at the deli is awful
yes it truly is
is tomorrow okay to email it after Annie goes home?
Absolutely!
will do
hmmm macaroni salad... i need to make mine again
Sweetie just gobbles it up
matter of fact that is what he had for breakfast
fireworks. must go play tennis. poof.

(((Hugs))) to all of you.
have a great day ((Mom))
((Annie)) you as well
ok..so..i woke up this morning with a horrid creepy witchy feeling like something really bad is going to happen
I hope not Carlee
me too
(((carlee))) it might be the aftermath of all the terrible suicides that is taking its toll on your memory. It would shake me up too. Nothing bad is going to happen.
i hope so annie...
i just know my stomach is upset... and that hasnt happened to me for a very long time
carlee, stomach upsets happen. maybe, you ate something that didnt agree with you.
ive had flu....chest virus... toast has been my friend... and clear soup..
no this is a nervous stomach thing...
Have some toast and tea now and you will start to lose that awful feeling. It is the end of an illness.
i hope so annie
clue for the te5?
You have been working too hard at school, work and house.
maybe... we'll see
de****gent (soap) but change the last vowel
nm, found it. I hate that anxious feeling, try the toast and tea, as annie recommends.
glad you got it, dawg as I clued it wrong
monkeys found it, and the 6 too, i always have trouble with that te6.
good monkeys
tadone! finito...mixed feelings about a small grid. good that i'm done, but now must go do something constructive before going to work. darn.

morning, all!
Morning Sue
hi, Molly!
we are off in an hour or so to the Japan festival - large Japanese community in the Chicago suburbs. One of my physics colleagues (who is Japanese) does traditional Japanese archery and will be doing some demonstrations.
*Bows in Sue's direction*
Then we can shop at the Japanese grocery store :-)
And what do you buy there?
noodles and spices that we can't get at home (although our local markets are getting more international), plus whatever captures my eye - I am a rather adventurous eater. And we can always get sushi. It's more like a whole shopping mall - big supermarket plus several smaller specialty shops, and fun to visit even if we don't buy much.
good morning my babble friends:)
I heard the funniest comment about sushi the other day. "Sushi - delicious...raw chicken - salmonella" : D
morning, crossy! How is the boy?
lol,she let him live
yeah, the people who do sushi have to be really careful. (They don't use fish that are raised the way chickens are raised now!)
Did he have a good time after all that?
good morning all
morning, wv!
yup,got there half way through dinner,the corsage we got on the run almost matched her dress and he got 2.5 hours of dancing in
anything else they did he did not mention to me
:-) probably just as well. Glad it worked out - I'll bet he doesn't forget something like that again for a long time!
they had some contests,the best dressed,last to arrive,etc
so did he win last to arrive, or was someone else even later?
my son was NOT the last to arrive at 1.5 houyrs late
Wow.
and the kids are harsh these days,one poor girl actually got dumped AT the prom by her long time bf.he waltzed in with another on his arm as she was sitting there waiting for him
so i drove her home as i was there dropping my boy off
ugh thats awful crossy...
Quick hi. Crossy I hope you gave that lad a stern talking to poor love
poor girl was a wreck.got her in the car,phoned her mom and gave warning
... Crossy ... where do kids from Collingwood go after prom? ... Surely not to Wasaga like everyone else in the province ...
Carlee- I climbed into bed.
no,we tend to leave wasaga to the tourists
Good grief. I hope she comes to realize that she is fine and her ex-bf is a total jerk!
i can see that herin...
... thought so
hi, herin!
hello again
wasaga too far for our kis to go...usually a private beach here cus someone knows someone along lakeshore
indeed,poor thing.you could tell she spent week agonizing over a dress like that
kids
weeks
I don't know how someone could be that mean. A rom is such a huge deal to girls growing up. I have heard of girls planing prom from the moment they enter Junior high
i think they rented one of those large party tents and they had a real nice area chosen and strung a bunch of those paper lanterns looked nice
Hi back. Pardon typos. iPhone's are a nightmare for typing.
sounds nice, crossy! Our proms were always in the high school gym, and were only a dance, no dinner
crossy, is there a chaperone?
oh yes,we had 3 chaperones this year minding the dance hall and 3 more minding the party tent
that is a bad story about the prom. high school kids can be so mean!
My parents wouldn't let me go to Senior Graduation as Ihad to wear a colour other than black and be civil to the plebs.
hello herin but I don't know what that means
hi ruby and bichon!!
plus caterers,all monitored very well
I got thrown out of my junior prom for dancing with a black boy, so didn't go to the senior prom
hi sue
My first thought is haven't kids seen Carrie? Or Buffy were every time se goes to a prom it goes pair shaped
My first thought is haven't kids seen Carrie? Or Buffy were every time se goes to a prom it goes pair shaped
good for you, ruby!
what ruby! where was that
NY, 1958, can you imagine? and it wasn't even a slow dance LOL
yes,where indeed ruby??
(wouldn't have been an option at my prom, my school was lily white, sigh)
in Queens, Martin Van Buren which, ironically, is almost totally black now
I grew up in NYC ruby, as you know. I can believe it
plebs- Type of class system in Roman times usually below or lower class
It's good to see that times do change
there were about 5 black kids in my class of almost 2,000 and they all bussed in
ok, morning tea is done, must get on with the day - off to the Japan festival!
and that is me done...had to step away to find last 5
Now you can go to the prom with another girl
who would wear the tux?
yay, carlee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ooh sushifest for sue!!!
http://www.japanfest-chicago.org/
If I went to prom I would we're a tux.
<-- loves sue's icon
we are lucky here in that regard,kids are just kid,and a well mixed melting pot of race cree and colour and i do not think they even know the term "plebs...
so would I....
... around here it seems that most kids are going to prom in a group rather than with a date
should be fun! one of my colleagues (also a physics professor) will be doing some traditional Japanese archery
that's better
Plebs - plebeians some thing.
and thanks, Ruby, I think this is my favorite picture of all the Venus transit pictures.
will they have the drums?
and now I am off! back this evening!
When I was in high school, if you didn't have a date of the opposite sex, you were SOL
I'm envios, sue, miss Japanese food!!!!!
byebye sue have fun
anyone have the en 6/27?
In high school I didn't date as the boys were
there were lots of photos in the paper, happily, because it rained all the time of the transit, both possible days
put in a box, bichon
Neanderthals
ty ruby
ours were just dull and the black boys could dance!
beginning days of rock and roll
In my High School
bbl
o ruby that sounds fun
Night all
i didnt go to my final prom...the girls were getting nutso about buying the most expensive dresses they could find ( upwards of 800.00 in 1985)
that, of course, was another consideration -- would never have asked my parents to spend that much money on me
so my gf and I ...get dressed up..went to dinner at the local racetrack ( at that time you had to dress up if going to that restaurant) bet an exactor and reversed it ( so 2.00 each) that was our kitty for the night...didn't buy new outfit,,,paid for dinner drinks dessert tip and pocketed 5.00 each at the end of the night
last two: te6 and te5 - any clues? earlier clue had a mistake and I couldn't get it.
lol carlee,you should of seen the dresses at this function,mostly simple spagetti strap number with big designer names that did not cost more that a grand i sure and add a 500 dollar pair of shoes
hello jdd
am trying to think of clues jdd
and by the time I was a senior in college, I was 20, married to a prof and pregnant
oh okay...te6 10-1
I didn't even get a yearbook :(
i got yearbooks...
or te6 10 to 1 ;o)
Night all
sweet dreams again herin
{{herin}} nice to see you
while i was waiting for the young lady to be ready to go home,i put a seat cover on my back seat cause i was afraid the dress was worth more than my car and did not want anything to happen to it when she sat in my old jalopy
hehehehe that funny crossy
still thinking of a te5 clue
we are getting rid of my 15-yr old VW Lupo and will have my first automatic transmission car (of my whole life). I figure at this age, I shouldn't have to shift (for myself)
congrats ruby!!!!!
te6 both ends of a royal flush
oh, that's the 6 , sorry
the en to put in a box..just not seeing it:(
ty carlee for the 10:1
re and mice like the ***w on wood ( so do beavers actually)
crossy...think live trap
or something stronger than a box
hello Babble Friends
yay {{sprite}}
10 more nights, ruby :)
hi sprite
damn,this grid is tough
I've been deadheading like crazy, sprite, as the roses all collapsed from the rain
hmmm....figures crossy..i liked it
awww yeah I can imagine. Pure Autumny weather, wouldn't you agree?
hiya crossy, ruby, carlee :)
and i enjoyed yesterdays..go figure
I'm just not good at this, so never finish and don't complain
<----likes weird grids
didnt see yesterday's
but today is lovely and the currants are getting ripe, so we'll make jelly while you're here
me too, carlee. makes things interesting :)
oooh a babble meet up!!!! yay
a little one, but it should be excellent!!!
yesterdays was real easy
Sorry had to step away for a minute. Was there a clue for te 5? - I am not seeing it if it is there.
oh ruby, that is great! I wanna learn how to do that.
hi jdd
i did at 8:44
earlier in the chog, I read that there was some controversy about people saying grids were fun and easy or difficult. What's fun is the first "blush" and run through and then just seeing our friends
did crossy fall in his teacup again?
headdesk..headesk..headesk
yeah... poor aim
how did I KNOW? <snort>
I can't find the te 5 either
I think everyone has their own things they love in babble and things that are less fun.
i do not care about controversy..i call em as i see em
indeed ((sprite))
which one has u stumped crossy?
uh oh, both dogs are yelling better go and see if the Huns are at the gate (or is it the barbarians?)
byebye ruby
bye carlee et al
I do not understand that people actually make a controversy out of that. Don't they know people are different and have different tastes? React different to challenges? Etc? Gosh, I am so different I introduce myself to me every morning.
bye ruby
sorry carlee clue didn't work for me.
oh good, they've stopped, it was barking in stereo
hehe,think i love you sprite
;) It is very mutual, Crossy!
fun doesn't necessarily mean winning for me
.. t + unit of energy + vowel
{{babble group hug}}
the te word sounds like the game you play with raquets that Jimmy Connors used to play
oh hell no, ruby. Actually, there is no losing or winning in babble. Just playing.
*hugs along with carlee*
ty dose
{{participating in group hug}}
yea..i completely clued it wrong..sorry...
(((hug)))
morning All
{{hego}}
i just like the fun twisty ones with fun words no babblets...
hi hego
ty dose.Fireworks - that is two days in a row. Maybe small grids suit me.
hi hego *hug*o :)
l
hello aloy
hi aloy
I like them all. Some because they are smooth and make me feel like I am flying through, others because they are twisty and challenging and make me feel like my brain is on fire.
howdy aloy
hey Aloy :)
*~*~*~pompom toss*~*~*for jdd
when FM and crossy used to carry me over, I occasionally got FW. Only once since those days tant pis for me
yay for jdd
yeah being without our FM sucks really really bad.
yes, I miss her kind presence
wtg jdd!
i think since i started school ruby i have finished maybe 5 grids..my goal if i come here is to get nbt/nbs in the fewest words possible after that is icing
crossy misses FMmitch
we all miss fm
carlee for me it's nbt, nbs and half, then, icing
we all do Crossy
yes we do
I have much more fun since I quit thinking about finishing.
for the first couple of months I looked at the ratings and then totally stopped. I'm probably not even listed any more
that's for sure! hi all, entering with a red face, just opened chat and saw my booboo..
I never think of finishing, I just do. Unless I don't have time of energy and then I leave the grid unfinished. No stress, just fun.
finishing is over rated... i often just pop in for chat and dont even look at the grid
hi Aloy
looking for aloy's (rare) booboo
hi Aloy :)
typo, ruby (-:
why would finishing be overrated? Some like it, some don't. All good.
for me is over rated...
ah ok :)
finishing is great, if you can do it
: )
i like throwing pompoms....
but without using a list and without a lot of help from my friends, it's impossible for me
(I close chat while I initially go through the grid, so I didn't see my typo)
I like your pompons :D
that first 1/2 hour in the grid, usually alone in the morning, is my most productive
love those pompons!
after that, it's more for seeing my friends
(-:
carlee has great pompoms. snicker
ruby, I use the list too sometimes, nothing wrong with that either.
lol I used the S!
hahah
several times now that I found it
... there's a bunch of them ... ...
really?
oh, yes, as an ending....I thought I was losing it for a sec
it was so far away in consonantland that I thought it was useless, grin
me too
crossy fell back in his teacup
see... one of the many things I like in Babble. Discovering how often I start from the wrong conviction. And setting it right. Lovely. Good practice for life.
only 24 left (hahah) but time has run out....see you later, kids
bye ruby, hagd!
*pulls crossy out by his ankles and dries him off*
byebye ruby
bye Ruby
bye ruby :)
snack time for puppies!
i just let my mongrols in...started to rain and they have so many holes in my yard they would track in mud if i left them out
:)
hi all, 10 left here. I miss FM too!!
hi peri
hi again peri
hi Peri
hi peri, yeah, very much :(
went for a short walk, first time since ankle injury and I did well!!
good news, peri
oh wow, gratz! That is very nice.
excellent peri
:-)
good Peri
I will return to exercise class on Tues. may start with the slower class first
but that is ok
anyone got a clue for the te5?
careful not to overdo Peri.
dose did..t+ unit of energy+vowel
I will be careful, hego
if there is only one: t + to **r is human, to forgive divine + open the **te.
: )
8
AH, tyvm
ty carlee and sprite.. needed that one
7
19 here, peri, lol
15, brb.. refill time
hi all
ty new one for me
terrific! a word not in my Scrabble dictionary
Hi Medusa
Help for en6 please?
hi, babblers!
hi medusa
lock up, Erda
hi welki!
http://tinyurl.com/7lpzzps
Welki!
this is impressive and scary all at once
and Erda
TY Sprite
Hio hego
pate
Uncover: there are many of those. If you want to know, I recommand infoplease.com or onelook.com
yvw :)
OOOOPS
how is everyone today?
thanx Sprite
good and you?
okayish here. Kids got some bug so now I have it too. But it is one that lasts only a few days.
good thanks. just got home as i went to the library to sort my ereader out and still got nowhere! lol
scary, carlee
the wonderful world of technology
I am kind of in love with my ereader. So many books at my disposal. Weighing almost nothing.
7 left and stuck. hate to go to the list at this stage
me too Sprite
wow peri, n job!
thanks
definitely getting better at this
It's my favorite thing ever!!
I love mine too!
i like books...
but I still buy books at thrift stores and go to the library
helps if you can remember the strange ones
i just gave mine to my husband - i like it, but can't seem to get used to (1) not turning a page (2) the size of the "page" and (3) the time it takes for the page to refresh
it does
:D I never wanted one, but now that I have one... I should have done it sooner. Imagine, going on holiday and not needing a huge crate of books!
I like turning pages too :)
maybe i'm a paperholic
that's the best part Sprite.
smell of books if hte ereader came out with a way to smell like books
lol Welki
yeah, turning pages is nice. The feel of a real book is great. But an ereader is great too :) Mine is very quick with the new page, the page is pocketbook size. So great allover.
peri, I just tried the spanish father with a diff vowel ending and it worked
for me, actually, the biggest negative of a ereader is that, once you purchase a book, you can't share it when you're done with it
mine too
oh, ok, will try that, Aloy
and I can have any book I want instantly!
ty Aloy, now 6
errrrr ummmmm well welki... I do :D
that too, almost, hego!
I like that my e-reader is connected to the local free library. and I buy lots of free books from Amazon too
i prefer a proper book but thought that, where i have a bad back, it would just save me lugging library books around and i usually buy the books i get from the library if i like them
go peri go
you can share now with Amazon
goodwill has the best prices on books.
on a Kindle, hego?
buying free books from Amazon? How does that work?
really? does the person you share with have to pay at all?
yes Aloy
no Welki
ooh.. that is great!
i just cant work out how to get books from my lap top to my cooler
25 cents any paperback, no matter how many pages and 50 cents for all hardbacks no matter how many pages, can;'t beat that
which format does your ereader use, medusa?
Amazon has lots of old books free.
wow peri, that is great
just go to Amazon and search free books!! I usually search for free mysteries or thrillers.
I have an Amazon Kindle
how would you share a book with me, hego?
it runs adobe
reading back on ereader conversation,it is best for storing large volumes of books(i have over 200) would of needed a new house for more bookcases otherwise and #2 being able to change font size and typeface so my wife can read again:) we love our ebooks
and i can share any book
I don't know how to share books with anyone
hiya Crossy
must investigate!
wait, I think I do. it has to be sent to your computer and they you get it from your computer to your e-book
i only got mine yesterday so am a total beginner on ereaders!
peri,i just plug in my reader to the computer,transfer the epub file to the desk top,plug in the wifes reader,copy and paste it over and you are done!!
had my reader 2 and 1/2 years and have read aver 100 books.
I have literally thousands. And I love it.
Now think of all that paper and ink and storage, etc.
mine uses epub. it is supposed to play mp3 too
yes. No more trees killed for my reading. Grin.
of the 6 I am missing, 3 are c words. I do not like c words
yup:))
my son now calls them"dead tree books"
though the ones on my 5 full book cases will never leave me
electrons are fully recyclable. lol
medusa: usually the readers come with a connection between computer and reader. You order (or receive free) epubs on your puter and then drag and drop them onto your reader.
ugh, missed the white tropical bird
our house is pretty much full with books, not much more room. The reader saved my ass, lol
but hego, you said that amazon allows you to share books - how do you do that?
medusa start at www.gutenberg.com and www.epubbud.com for freebies
bird....hmmm...
the white tropical bird. Is that the te one?
thats what i have done but it wont open on the reader
saved my arse as well sprite
and medusa: if you have requests, email crossy or me... we might be able to get you some.
could i be missing a programme for it or something?
eg one sprite
cool. thanks
Welki, I haven't looked into it because hubby andI share the same cloud.
ahhh thank you, Aloy!
medusa your reader will actually show up as a hard drive letter under start/my computer
just trying to work out how to work it right now! lmao
(-: yvw
i got all that crossy
But I did get an email saying they now support book sharing.
would be interesting if we could do that - i really feel gypped when i'm done with a good read and can't give it to anyone else to read
i am so bad with electrical things!
your computer thinks it is just another hard drive:)
what reader do you have welki?
cool. thats how my cooler shows
medusa: connect to the puter. Then go to windows explorer and click My Computer. You will see an extra drive. Open it and it will have a folder called EBOOKS or EBOOK or something like that. You can drage epubs from your computer into that folder.
feel the same way.. want to share good books
heck,i am even sharing books with sprite overseas !!!!~ lol
a kobo, crossy
Welki I read there was a big oil spill in Alberta.
then it should be easy welki
in a river
i have a cooler
my icon is in honor/memory of my dulcimer teacher who passed away this week. I am leaving now for the funeral and we will enjoy an afternoon of ploaying music in her memory
yes, near where i am this weekend - the red deer river - more than 475000 litres
sorry for your loss teach.
sorry for your loss, teeach
aww, sorry, may she RIP
Welki, that's awful!
*will play a little jean ritchie today*
{{wvteach}} my thoughts and prayers are with you.
will be thinking of you teach
Aloy, ty for the bird.
please enjoy some music today
always teach.
yw hego..
down to 4 I can't see.. so A to Z, here I come
will do teach
once you get used to your reader medusa,you will have no problems.have have shared many books with many babblers,family and friends
halfway. bbl hagd All.
bye hego, have a great day!
feel the same way about my new "smart" phone that makes me feel very stupid, crossy.. takes some time to learn how to use the techno wonders
yup,same here.there is a learning curve
so sorry, welki :(
Good morning everyone! I have been lurking as I am not quite awake yet!
May I please have the stats for the upper E?

i am looking forward to geting used to it.
Got it! Twisty bugger!
Ty!
am really getting into this grid
it is a fun grid for me. Quite a challenge
and it is now time for crossy tidbit of the day!!!!
:)
In 2007, researchers at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York reported that people who played video games for 3+ hours a week made better surgeons.
I was afk for a little while, had to help hubby, who is still kind of a digibete. Medusa, let me know if you have requests for epubs.
hi again, all! And I had heard that, crossy, very interesting!
crossy, that is probably because those surgeons have less hours to kill patients.
hi double U sue :D
Great! My kids have a good future then!
Great! My kids have a good future then!
hi sue
hi uusue!
hi sue
scalpel....rib spreaders.....gauze....gameboy....

though someone left packman inside me
thanks, aloy, it's my favorite photo from the transit of Venus!
it was too cloudy here to see :( But all the videos are AMAZING!
our observatory got some nice photos although nothing like the big research telescopes got
it rained here.
♪ Venus if you will...give uusue a little thrill...♪ ♫
awesome.. reminds me of geometry too
I am your Venus... I am your fire...
I remember that song!
my veus,in blue jeans...la la la
apparently some nutcase is claiming that the transit has infected the Earth with Venus-based viruses - sigh
I remember the Venus in blue jeans but not the other one
cool,when do i grow my 3rd eye in the back of my head?
well, ty all.. am off to work with a song in my heart now.. see you all next time, Poof!

I was still thinking of a clue and wondering if it was really the 2nd.
i would not beging to cme up with a clue for it!
finito! anyone need a clue or two before i go?
oh dear... first Dutch socker game of the EK is being played today. How I know? The amazing amount of noise outside. Jeezzz what is with the whole socker thing. Why do people go crazy over it!
wtg welki!
for tonights menu we have bbq ribs marinated for 2 hours honey/garlic bbq sauce,and corn on the cob:)))))
(we're having ribs, too)
yaaa for ribs!!!
ha, sprite, I was in France the summer they both hosted and won the World Cup. It was pretty intense.
yummy sounding crossy. We're having left over Chinese food
wtg welki
although, if this weather doesn't improve, they'll be cooked in the oven - never fails, long weekend for us, bad weather
i will bbq in a hurricane
how about third pa5?
<-- hasn't been fishing even once yet this season *grrrr*
I don't dislike socker. But I hate the mass hysteria. Everything here is orange now. And people feel obliged to make so much noise. ARRRGGGHH.
i find euro soccer rather boring..well except for fans destroying themselves in the stands,that is exciting
same as the second, medusa, change the last vowel
Is it a holiday in Canada?
nope,just rib night:))
no bich - we took yesterday off
can anyone help with ge please? lol
you're right, crossy - was nasty last night, too and we managed to grill outside - just need to move the bbq away from the wind
fourd it. was looking the wrong way again!
a little metal round thingy with teeth
a transmission has for or 5 of these medusa
well, time to cook breakfast - later folks!
bye welki, enjoy
mmmm breffast....
thanks gus. got it just as you clued it and now feel thick for asking lol
yayyy last 6 found. 6 smaller words to go.
medusa, please don't? It is a known babble fa4 that finding a word is much easier as soon as you have asked for a clue.
our peri is the queen of that... we call it 'pulling a peri' in her honour.
this is true spite but that was so obvious! lol.
cool.!
lol and that is another wellknown Babble thing... Babble blindness. We can find crwth but don't see cans.
i call it a major brain fa4! i have them all the time
nothing like a game of Babble to make us feel dumb, lol
babble blindness is a well doccumented malady
i only just started a short while ago but may go make a coffee and come back with fresh eyes!
this is a darn tricky grid for sure
i m flying though it but just getting stumped in a few words
wow you are good!
finally found the pa 5!!
i need the last one of them crossy
i am addicted to word games and crosswords
take the one before, medusa, and change the last vowel.
lol,i have not listed so i did not even know there is more than one at this stage medusa;0
FIREFLIES for the sprite!
i started when i said hi and now have 23 words left
ahh the priest,the priest but with an i on the end and i am looking for a 3rd
yaaa for sprite!!!
thanks sprite
crossy: an agreement over peace, plural
yvw :)
wtg sprite
ty sprite
I will hang around while I do 3 more nails :D So ask if you want a clue
will do
that would be a pediclue?
or a manigrid?
I am never much into makeup and stuff, but I have an appointment with my daughter to do some watermarble for nails today :D
lol ruru, indeed.
there;)) now the words are coming:)
e5 please
re5
that is a white tropical bird, medusa. Like what you feel when you are really sorry looking back, but lose the first R.
oh ok, let me think of a clue
re + first 3 letters of a bug/midge
thanks
yvw
may have to google the bird. never heard of that
that was the eg5, medusa.
ok. lol. got that then! lol
have all down to ta
lol reminds me of something I read once... a man who applied for a job and thought he was the perfect candidate. He sent his CV and added a one-sentence application letter: "Dear Sirs, I apply." He got back a very short letter: "Dear Sir, we reg***>"
lol sprite
and that is a stunning bird
hi first ca 6?
isn't it! Looking up stuff we find in Babble is often like opening up new worlds for me.
hi geek, do you have the 5 before it? Person who.
i find that too. i love birds and animals though
yeah me too.
i have a couple of fives
i just find that bird so elegant and regal the way it just stands there
he who begs, or borrows without intending to pay back.
yes it is really pretty
ty got it
or start with an illbred man who is bad to women, and end with the first 3 letters of the flower old people are supposed to sit behind.
good :D Ok, I am off, have fun all and see you soon.
bye sprite
ttfn sprite. thanks for the help
hey anyonee who's left
now I need the last ca 6

hi stiddie! *hugs* Sorry to leave when you arrive. But gtg.
hey stid
that is the beauty of babble,it opens doors you otherwise would never of looked at,exposes you to cultures and people around the world,a place where advice from doctors,lawyers and just plain old people who have been there is freely shared,a place to vent,a place to laugh and a place to exercise your mind;))
short for the card oracle, medusa. *poof*
it's okay, see you soon sprite
howdy stidmama

Hellifiknow
lol...several 'bowel' words in today's grid...
hmmm -- don't have any of those
Vanna, I'd like to buy a bowel please
perhaps I'm looking at the wrong end
I spent ten minutes looking for an eg word that meant tropical bird only to discover a) I already had it b) cluing it as tropical was not exactly correct : D
any stats for the bowel words?
hah, I monkeyed one
thats what i am doing crossy just so i can gt the hang of it. though i must say now i know the problem its so easy
thanks for the clue molly....lol
just made up an fa5
It's a dumb word Ruby. Good for you for finding it.
flailing around for the last 11
Flail Ruby, flail!
Not laughing as much now that I've hit the F's...
chuckling again after also monkeying that fa5!
How else could you find it? Totally made up word. Shame on Enable.
is it even in the dictionary?
and you can't even add an r!
Whenever I see "unknown origin" I think "made up"
it's not in American heritage
10 left and good night everybody
Night Ruby
sweet dreams ruby hey molly and all
nite ruby!
any clue for the first pa5/14...
father in italian, Jilly
also an american football team i think
um...have the spanish father...which is also the US baseball team...its the very first one...
ca 6/24 ?
ca6/24=kidnapper
First pa5 is plural of the pa4 before it, which means a peace accord
thanks jil
ahhh!!! ty molly
: )
sorta a fish slap for me...
now after putting that corner s in my field of vision..found a ton more words...
It's devious, it tries to hide from you : )
Well, my weakest spot is reading to the left, plus my brain deletes letters that don't have words starting with them....
I have a hard time reading right to left also
Tea party types read right to left
I thought they didn't read at all...just watched Faux news....
run Jane and Dick See...
no they read, but only the words that they think belong
LOL
LOL
HI Grey Woulf.. how are the grand kids?
ruru and jilly in STEREO
one word left but gotta head out for now...bbl to finish *poof*
the kids are doing fine -- school ends in a couple of days -- Seb is done with Kindergarten and Kristianna doesn't want 3rd grade to end
that's nice.
I don't think I"ve seen you in years
It has been a loong time since I last chatted -- just too much going on at work -- by the time I get home, I don't want to do more than look at pictures if I get to turn on the computer
Although, my newest hobby is trolling through Kickstarter.com to see if there are any interesting projects to support
wow.. I"m glad you have the time for that
it is something simple to do at night before I crawl into bed.. doesn't take much time and you can find some really interesting ideas... I tend to focus on the games, personally
hola
hi, kje
hi all!
Hi GreyWoulf!
I haven't spoke to you before, but I think you like wolves. There is a place near me called Wolf Hollow, they help wolves, and Neil Young gave them money towards their operation. It's great to see the family of wolves and their life!
hi all
JMC!!
and All
haha! heho!
and haho to you.
oops lost its pazazz hego!
hi hego,jmcnrick
good to see you.
hi scramb
hi Scramb
jmc, how you been?
i have been kinda mumphee but surviving.
(and watch out for Scrambler. Nef and I had to sedate her)
go back and forth on whether my decision to quit my job and now to declare myself a new organization was the height of stupidity or ego or not
ohh sorry about your mumphee.
(goodness! what signs should i be looking for?)
well, it's done. Time to move on.
she gets wild and sees rays coming out of her majesties' eyeglasses.
i was about to write that i could always get a job. . . but why do i think i am any different from all the other people i know who can't find a job?
her majesties' Betty Windsor?
well, you do have some special qualifications.
yup, Betty.
i saw a cute photo of Betty in different color dresses all lined up to make a rainbow
cute.
She has some nice old lady threads
well with that pot of money i would expect!
righto!
i think you scared scambler off
no, she'll be back.
oh okay
lurking now
all the words i can find are pretty normal
oops, she did leave.
my who's online has worked in months. . .i can no longer check to see who is lurking
*hasn't
tha's odd
i had about 6 months that i couldn't play words with friends to save my life
i can do it now but have to wait for people to start the first game as i have no way to search for them
my daughter quit. Said it was too much pressure and not enough fun.
and my frustration level is so high with hidden chronicles that i am about to just send gifts and ignore the rest. . .and eventually quit
she quit words with friends?
takes forever to build something there.
no she phased out.
oh it is perfect for me as it gives me a few minutes of something other than work
where as when i come to babbleland. . . well i get too caught up usually in conversation. . .
a little break
true...
i was looking and i think you can go to your fb profile and remove apps so they quit annoying you
like what
<--Has never understood the appeal of Facebook or Facebook games...Square peg
like when you try a game and you decide you don't like it
I enjoy playing with friends from here.
my sister and my son are not fans either molls. . .
gotcha
i like the connection with some of my far away friends . . .a little more personal than email but not as personal as a phone call
Crossy set up a GOT community for a Babblers.
It's fun, we help eachother.
oh i have to find that
I just stumbled onto it by trial and error.
well now that i know it exists i should be able to find it
he can give you exact directions.
i am guessing i will not finish this baby grid without the list
I'm not trying too hard.
well that is better than lying in my bed singing Jacque Brelle!
*Afraid to ask what a GOT community is*
is that all there is? is that all there is?
Yup.
garden of time molls
if that's all there is my friend lets keep on dancing
lets break out the blues and have a ball
if that's all if that's all
I will assume that is a Facebook game *lives under rock*
yes it is molls *kicks rock down the hill*
that part sounds good.
And what does one do in a "garden of time"?
waste time
have you ever play in the newspaper the game where you look for objects hidden in a picture. . . highlights for children for grown ups
but there is a plot that is mildly interesting
it's a hidden object game, but there's more it.
some of the art is very pretty.
I loved Highlights find the hidden picture when I was a kid.
and you have to know all sorts of things tosolve the puzzle.
there are several of them on fb and the internet in general but some of them have annoying twists and turns like hidden chronicles which makes you way to dependent on other people
It can be challenging.
part of what makes it interesting to me is that they change what they call things from time to time
I agree about HC Je.
hello all, found my last word ----->sparkles<-----
a horn one time might be a bugle or it might me a cow horn
tricky
whooo hoooo jilly!!!!

Not that you all are, but I was reading about computer game addiction the other day. I know someone who is ending a relationship because her boyfriend is a Farmville addict. Seriously.
sounds like it was a great relationship anyway.
bye jmc

Sad commentary on our world isn't it..I have found addictive personalities will find some addiction...I guess Farmville is atleast not physically destructive

It actually was a great relationship (ouch) before he got into the game. Now all he does is eat, sleep, work and play Farmville.

Hi everyone! Anyone?
Hello Red :-)
how are you doing Soodle?
Hi and good afternoon Babblefolken
Hi Bichon!
Hi again Soodle!
hi bichon and redturtlehead
I am good, and all the better for 'seeing' Babble friends. Hey Bich, Hego Jilly & Stiddy :-)
Hi Jilly!
Another beautiful June day here in CT
hey soodles! was just about to go take a nap, worked in the garden for about an hour today!
One of these days soodle I WILL darken your doorstep!
and hello red and bichon, too.
sounds ominous, jilly...
Lucky you Bich. Another typical June day here in Ireland. Heavy rain most of the day, then brilliant sunshine for the evening. But the country is looking very well, and very very green!!!
oh bichon, I am jealous, it hot humid and raining here. very tropical...
Stid... I've been following your posts on FB..... Well done & keep the faith!!
Ireland is on my bucket list stid...lol
LOL thanks soodle ((hugs))
well, wind has died down, time to go weed....bbl..ttfn babble buddies!
Everyone has Ireland on their list, or should have
I think I will rename our place "Ireland West..." it's green, clovers in the lawn and rainbows on the rare occasions the sun comes out after a rain.
later jilly!
I sure do!
I'm going to negotiate with Dr God to take out an advertisment on Babble. Free accommodation chez Soodle for all Babblers!
Love your facebook photo soodle...my sons would agree... now *poof*
too funny soodle!
Bye Jilly (((()))))
Ireland west!!! I love it!!
I really mean it Red. I would Soooo love to host a Babble get-together.
Hey. Anybody with Netflix - check out a movie called The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas. A wonderful, though provoking movie.
:-) well, I am fading out. I think that nap is a necessity, rather than a luxury today. Will be back later. Sorry I can't keep myself awake to chat. (((hugs, choclits and guiness for anyone who wants some))) *poof*
Emmm Thought provoking, even.....
Hugs to Stiddy (((((((()))
Soodle, I am still thinking of running something over there....my thing is that cities in the "old world" tend to have cobbled streets and those really hurt me to run on ..
I am seriously thinking of napping again as well. but its close to the end of the day now. I should do some cleaning...
Well Red, for every cobbled street, there are 10 non-cobbled ones. I am not a runner, but the cobbled streets and high heels are a recipe for disaster. They can be avoided!!
Actually... those words I just typed 'I am not a runner' could very well qualify as the understatement of the year....
Indeed, it just depends on where the race courses go.
ok , my bathtub wil not scrub itself.
Enjoy the scrubbing Red....
I guess the poor boy won't have another! Knew this 2 days ago!
afternoon all
poor horse, the tendonitis injuries are not fun!
afternoon!
Hey Jess. Hey Scrambler.
hey doodle, I could use a guiness
oops guinness
Comer on in. The bar is open :-)
Oops... 'Come on in.....'
144th belmont stakes and will I ever get to see another triple???
Horse racing, Scrambler? My neighbour is Gordon Elliott, an up and coming trainer here in Ireland. Ever hear of him?
When a tip comes in from Gordon's stable, the whole village bets on it, (Soodle included) and 9 times out of 10, its lucrative.. :-)
yes I have!
I have a couple of pleasure horses that I show on the USEF A circuit, we heard a few days ago about poor I'll have another and potential tendonitis.
holy hannah..soods!!!!!
or not... )-:
local hero Ill have another... windsor is still crying
it is sad!! My thoughts- It's between Unstoppable U, Union Rags, Dullahan, your thoughts?
I was crushed that I'll Have Another got scratched from his Triple Crown attempt. He's the first Derby horse I ever picked that won.
i was hoping to see just one more in my time!! Affirmed was the last one! Great jockey "The Kid"! Long time ago!
I was at The Preakness when Affirmed ran. Makes me ancient, I suppose.
that was awesome!
