new computer and not completely changed over yet
wow, wonder why Indiana is so high
what kind of computer flosey... and wtg
ASUS? does that mean anything? I've never heard the name before
looks like in,il,mi,oh and wi.....any outages of refiners there?
around chicago?
nor have I flosey
no idea dart... interesting statistics... sent the site to a few friends asking them
flosey, my computer has Asus parts -- I believe it's Taiwanese.
you can also see the states that have higher gas taxes by that map
sorry, all -- I've been buried in the grid and not watching chat
if you pull up canada prices...remember they are by the litre..have to multiply by 3.88 to get gallons
and yes, dart -- our gas prices are horrible
aww forgot about the litre/ gal diff
when our (MN) prices were close to 3.75 a few yrs ago...Newfoundland was 1.53/litre...almost 6.00 a gallon
nice wide screen, printer/scanner/fax - fax I don't care about at all
where did you see the gas taxes.... I am missing that
sounds great, flosey
sounds like fun, flosey
Tech. was down today but has to come back tomorrow
you don't...but can look them up...but when the whole state is lower...probably because of tax differences AL,MS,SC etc
our cost of living here sucks all the way around LOL... really high
flosey -- where did you get the new computer?
you are too close to chicago!!...and ruru is too close to SFO
that and the orthopaedic industry
Paul ordered it for me, from NCIX
<---doesn't want to hear about cost of living
see 3 posts down ruru
I pay $800 a month in gas bills or more
you could always be a wine rep....and live in nevada!! lol
NCIX?
to chevron and union 75
Nevada?
75?
puleeeeease dart
76
I wouldn't live in Nevada for 10 Million bucks
price you have to pay for paradise ruru!
definitely agree with that
11 . I'd consider it
raised there ruru?
nope
near SFO on the peninsula
not many can afford to move there....million dollar home here is big...california might be a 3 bedrm house
it would be a hard area to move to .. from other areas of the country
the cost of living is too high heere
hello everyone. have been finished for over 30mins, but my browser went down.how are you all?
even with house prices taking the tank a few yrs ago
people pass out at prices here
hi granny
our house is worth 3 X what we paid for it
been there a while i guess
wages have to be a lot higher there than other places
1994
hi granny how are you today
wages are high here dee
hey dee, ruru, dart. doing well thanx dee, despite my sadistic physio in the pool.
hi gran
guessing all of granny's physio people are sadists right now
hi granny -- good for you -- I'm only well over halfway, but have been watching TV Olympic stuff.
the house i bought 10 years ago, for AUD$80K, is now worth close to AUD$300K. and it's oly a little 2 bedroom solid brick house, on half a block.
they would have to be ru
hey, ruru, anyone who puts flippers on your feet and then tells you to walk around the pool must be a sadist, or nuts. the answer is up for grabs.
well I need to check emails and try to settle down to sleep. I vote for a sadistic nut.
try it in the ocean with big waves granny....it's worse lol
did they make you quack granny?
lol, trust you dee. night hun. have a good one.
nite volley
sleep well all & see you at the flip. Hugs granny!
nite dart
i was to busy trying to walk, never mind the quackers.
see granny at the flipper
yeah, yeah. you too, dart
you are supposed to walk backwards in them granny
well she didn't say THAT!!!! i had to walk forwards...;P
it's dangerous to walk forward in them
I used to be a scuba instructor
but i did get to pretend i was riding a bicycle backwards, now that was interesting. kept bumping into other patients. lol
i'm guessing you were in arrears?
very much so. * takes a quick peep in the mirror* yup, very much
you would have killed yourself laughing. picture this. was in pool, with my back to the side, foam noodle under right foot. start exercise, foot and noodle take off, heading for the ceiling. if i hadn't been hanging onto the rail, goodness knows where i would have en5 up. laughed myself silly.
39 left and too sleepy to go on -- byebye all...*poof
foam noodle?
long piece of foam, shaped like a piece of spaghetti
oh
night jilli, sleep well, hun
pool stuff
it's about 3-4 foot long
I'm sure it's all good for you granny
about 3" diameter
of course, ruru. challenging the knee is what hydro is all about, right?
yes... it is low impact and good for you
anyways, i'm guessing from the time, that you are about to head off, yeah?
yeah I drove 250 miles today. I'm beat
poor ruru. hope you rest well, mate. see you at the flip. goodnight
I haven't found any words for about 15 minutes anyway
you are getting very sleepy, you are getting very sleepy.
night granny.. i'm glad you are improving. I can't imagine the pain you've been in
night, mate. it's not so bad now. looking at returning to work in just over 2 weeks time.
good morning everyone, can someone clue the 8 for me please
nu8: the degree by which you don't have any clothes on.
thanks Dachef
I need 3 vowels for nbt and nbs, the U and A in the top row and the E in the 4th row.
un4: un + french for 'of the'; ar5: popular babblet. Dont have that e yet.
en6 - the main part of a meal
but I do now! Ta!
yw! :)
thanks to both of you, nbs and nbt and now must poof to do a deep clean on my daughters room while she is on holiday.
yw, I'd say have fun, but I've been there and done that, hope it's not too icky. :)
I love her dearly but...she is the untidiest person I have ever met and as her flat is attached to our property it does encroach on my nice tidy place, so I wait until she is away and tidy up. One room will take me all day!!
I hear you - our son would easily compete in the untidiness, I'm sure. :P
The problem is she is not a child she is 45 so I don't think she is ever going to change
well, I hope she at least appreciates your efforts. :)
good morning
hi, ruby! how's life?
hanging on - husband poorly, ruby holding her own, puppy boy a joy!
well, two out of three, I guess, good to hear. sorry about your husband. mine's none too well, himself. seems to be giving up on walking and is mostly riding around in his motorized chair.
mine is discouraged since he flew off the treadmill and his taking his depression out on me (who else?)
mine is like that, always crabbing at me, who deserves it the least. guess that's how it goes. who else will put up with their BS, I suppose.
true, rbud, nothing much we can do
I just make his meals, try to control his meds, invited his daughter to visit, (pay for her ticket), and just show up! lol
we had a scene tonight, he and our son were arguing out in the yard - bet the neighbors have about had it with us. I swear hubby and son have been fighting since the boy could talk, sigh. both so stubborn.
I hope you just went inside and put on some music, preferably with earphones. The heck with the neighbors, it's your sanity which must be guarded!
yep - after son left, he started on me, but I refused to put up with it, and left him to wheel on downtown in his chair and whine to someone else besides me.
his favorite bartender, or his buddy that just moved to town - don't care, I get fed up and ruin his "fun" by ignoring him.
good idea! I just drift out of the room if possible, when DH starts
takes the wind outta their sails, lol!
Sprite says "Talk to my hand, my head is tired"
I just don't get how someone can rant on and on about the same thing, more or less, for years. It never accomplishes anything except to tick himself off more. you'd think he'd learn.
since DH is pretty much deaf, when I say something to him, if he doesn't acknowledge, I don't know if he's heardme. So I repeat it a couple of times; then he gets annoyed
oh, of course, all your fault, you pest. (just kidding) I get that, too, but I think mine just tunes me out until I insist he pays attention.
<-- def a pest lol
97 words and nbt, nbs
have to walk the dogs now, DH banged on the window of my studio!
see you later, rbud
good progress, later! (((hugs)))

... hey ... it's not in the grid
your imagination is better than mine, dose
yes it is, nu6/24
... comes from hanging out with teenagers

Good morning, mates.
mornin
howdy judi
Hi Judi
silly crossy, you know more about tennis than to think that.
:)
actually tried watching soccer(footie) last year,the euro /uk stuff and just could not get into it.was too boring.you could have the best team and the worst team out there and it would be a tie or 2-1.i had more fun watching the fans destroy each other,was like a full wrestling match with weapons and chairs ripped out of the stands.was great fun
as an anglophile, i WANT to love soccer, but...
give them sticks,helmets,pucks and skates and would be a nice ice hockey game:0
Did someone say soccer? ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
tell me bout it
like i say,the fans are more fun to watch
i feel a LITTLE bad for del potro since everyone seems to be cheering for roger, but, not much.
should give the fan protective equipment though
Soccer has the same affect on Americans as Curling.
JUDI! Love the icon. : )
oh i like curling
lol,maybe make it like the old roman ampetheatres and put a hungry lion or two out on the pitch hehe
Thanks, Molly!
name that foreign noun! french window
Hmm. I can only remember a french door.
Fenetre
ding ding ding!
sorry i was caught up in the tennis
come ON roger!!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
come on Roger!
Hi all, clue please for be5/24???
gah
get the grass wet, flask
thanx Hurshy!
this is going to end in another tiebreak, isn't it
no tie break 3rd set in singles.
BBL. *POOF*
oh right they just keep playing until someone wins by two games
this could be a loooooong game
who's playing. and hi
federer is playing del potro.
hope roger's been working on endurance...
yawn....
:)
this is so nerve-wracking!
arghhhh
crossy wathces the ball go back and forth,back and forth ,back and for....zzzzz
stupid net balls!!!!
howdy bichon
ouch,nets balls,sounds painful:)
should jump higher next time:)
high like the trampoline guys!
there you go:)
now,combine tennis and trampoline and you may just have something
something impossible...
nice shot
geez this is nuts
I'm watching the diving at the moment but will be leaving shortly to go to the Women's match between Team GB and Canada - yeah :)
gooo canada!
lol - forgive me for not feeling the same
lol,i was born in watford just outside of london,i can root for either team:)
I feel with Diem in the family I am in a no lose situation as well :)
"nice when you are a winner no matter which way it goes:)
lucky you get to go!
yesssssss finally broke him!
now four aces would be nice.
easy hurshy..here have a whiskey...
How times have changed - You're in England, I'm in Texas, and we're both watching the same tennis match.
:)
It's a bit early here for whiskey tho.
the world has gotten very small mklein
i'm not really in england - only a wannabe.
un+d6/24 is not a word? bah
oh,did not know hursh,then yest it is too early
i know mael,we were biatching about that this morning
15.42 here, not really sure if that is too early or not
sun is over the yardarm somewhere!
nononononono
uh oh..
we went to a mexican place for lunch at work and the others were drinking cocktails so maybe it's not too early.
ACK
that's it what match? we have 25 channels so can watch anything at any time
federer v del potro
tv sure has changed in the uk.last time i heard about it,you hadd bbc 1 through five and 3 channels had soccer,one had coronation street and the last had a dr who marathon lol
reminds me,you can now order a tardis bookcase!!
oh i want one
how much
gwen would like one also i think
sec...let me see if i can find it
we do have a lot of channels normally but the BBC have been fantastic, we have the 25 channels in HD and normal, it's on an interactive service (called the red button) and also the internet. In addition they have put on an extra digital radio station so there are three covering it full time
lucky you - NBC sucks big time
we keep hoping ESPN will win the bid for olympics and it keeps not :(
the tardis bookcase will be on this site,somehere,you will have to scroll the pages to find it...
http://www.thatswhyimbroke.com/
It seems like Nbc really likes volleyball. It's ok, but I'm sure theres more going on than that.
there is also a full you tube video showing you how to make your own
thanks cross
Hi kids. Hurshy, did you have a nice birthday day?
Kitt, how was your US trip?
it was ok
Aw, ((Hurshy)), what would have made it better?
We currently have: football, tennis, tennis, archery, football, trampoline, judo, cycling, sailing, hockey, badminton, water polo, athletics, volleyball, handball, weightlifting, basketball, diving, table tennis, table tennis, tennis – where something is mentioned more than once then they are covering several matches. We also have two main stream channels showing round ups of what is going on
hehe...bacon bookmarks..... http://www.etsy.com/listing/62326578/b acon-bookmark
Hi scrabble it was just absolutely fantastic, we just loved everything :)
yeah we have lots on the internet
We get the Canadian TV station here so I flip between NBC and CTV.
sc, just, with little kids, you know, you can't have the day planned for an adult.
Yay, Kitt! Did everything work out?
and my salmon got overcooke.d
You were with your sister and kids?
Dry salmon is gross.
yes, the whole fam all last week
this match is insane
it did, we were shattered after New York & Niagara but then had fantastic family time before and after Nashville. Honestly every day we had an experience that was a 'once in a lifetime'. The driving was fine which was a blessing as we did well over 2000 miles
"shattered" meaning thrilled, in awe? We use "shattered" to mean distraught, devastated.
or perhaps you just mean exhausted?
Shattered meaning worn out and exhausted but after a wonderful time
Oh, ok. Being tired on a vacation is a good thing. It means you were busy and active.
Mick Jagger here?
Hi Ruru. My cousin that lives in Gilroy was here this week for a visit.

I think Judy Dench should be in here
I am watching the marathon tennis match between Federer and Del Potro.
many years ago (old, old), I saw her playing the lead in Cabaret in London. Picture her in black net stockings!
would love to have seen that, ruby
she was wonderful even then ((1968))
... was thinking the same thing ruby for exactly the same reason
she was wonderful -- what a voice! makes Liza look like nothing
if Liza had had a different mother, she'd have been waiting tables.....
... I saw Woodie Alan's Rome movie a couple of weeks ago and Midnight in Paris last year ... ... I'm wondering if he does a modern remake of Cabaret in Berlin next year ... was thinking Dame Judy would be great in it ..
and who could replace Joel Grey?
... well Woodie got Michael Caine and Oscar ... he must be done playing Alfred in the Batman movies by now
<-- never seen a batman movie (except for the serials when I was a little kid)
mixed feeling about Michael Caine -- never quite "got" him
Me too. I am not interested in superhero movies.
... much too dark for my taste now
but I love movies, just not superheroes, transformers, or "blue"
... ooh ... Harry Palmer in Ipcress file ... ... no one else could say "lose that door" and mean it the way Sir Michael did
faves: Chocolat, Saving Grace, Jude the Obscure, Blowup, more more
clue for the a right top corner please.
a + re4/4
oh yes, dose, I forgot that one. Do you like Michael Lonsdale?
... think of the french "stop"
did anybody see Gods and Men (don't know the release title in the US, saw it in French here)
... not familiar with it or the name
ty
it's a wonderful movie about a group of French monks in Algeria when everything went south. Great movie.
gotta run
I need a break. Maybe I'll return later. Enjoy the day.
see you later
... last French movie I saw was .... Diva .... unless you count Les Boys ... but that was from Quebec
... later dayas

Hi Peri!
Ty...searching now....
totally random question, because sometimes things seem really obvious to me but aren't to other people... if you had a sick puppy and someone told you that you should keep it hydrated by giving fluid injections through the belly wall and directly into the abdomen, how would take that suggestion. Related question; what risks would you think that entailed?
tx peri!
like your profile,car
yvw Une
TY Peri! It was a gift from hego!
yikes, jes -- is that for real?
Oh jes! I have no idea! :(
big risk of infection.
i thought you hydrated a puppy with IV -- like a human
yes, unea, honest question. I have strong opinions on this, but am aware that this might have been a "didn't know better" rather than "bloody idiot" situation...
yes Une most people would.
omg Jes-- i would not do it at home for reasons hego stated.
jes,for hydration do you not inject tween skinlayers?
very sterile conditions CRossy
TY Peri! Finally found it!
pup is so sick that it's not absorbing fluids from under the skin, crossy
*them
i am sorry to hear that Jes
good,car
that's odd Jes
pedialyte for animals,is there such a thing?
poor puppy
If the situation is dire maybe it warrants the risk.
:(
you can give pedialyte to animals, yes, crossy. but if they vomit it back up...
I am no expert in the field of vet medicine.
poor puppy,indeed
poor baby . . .
well,then i would ask a vet rather than mess any further myself
good idea Crossy
so i would think this would entail an iv to the blood stream no? similar to humans getting saline and such in hospital?
right . . . that's what i was saying earlier . . .
vet time for sure
right Wolvie
clearly you folks are smarter than some of my clients... :D
makes sense wolvie
like une said- i think it would be best
we would go into a major vessel if neccessary
thats why we pay you vets the big bux,to do it correctly for us:)
so this is someone who wanted to treat the puppy at home?
heh. well, not wanting to pay me was a pretty significant factor in this situation, crossy
cool- i love my animals and i have to say i would never ever consider trying something like that at home. :-)
oooh, ok
I found the 8 - YAY
i cannot fathom someone farting around at home injecting fluds into the belly
indeed
whole litter of pups with parvo. owners brought 1 in, but declined to hospitalize the rest. wanted to treat at home. I gave them fluids and anti-vomiting meds for subcutaneous use, and clearly and repeatedly told them that any pups getting worse should be hospitalized
oh nooooo . . . how sad
oh no
:(
they called "a friend in oregon who is a vet and has lots of experience with parvo" (the won't tell me who this is, so i have no way to verify what this person actually recommended), then called my associate who specifically recommended against this and told them that any pups getting worse should be hosptialized.
some folks should not be owners of animals, but we all know that. bummer
so true, wolvie
people sometimes just do not care.my son works for the shelter and when we got there this morning we found 3!!! heavily pregnant cats just tied with baling twine to the front door
i can't even watch those rescue shows- they make me cry
after 2 pups died at home, they brought 2 more in for hospitaliztion, did NOT TELL US that they had given fluids intra-abdominally. The next day (yesterday) they brought the other 2 in.
all 4 died last night.
oh no- even worse
good lord
:(
now, the pup they brought in first, that they didn't do anything to? she's fine and gone home.
ne7/44?
the 2 pups from a different family that came in and were treated this week? fine and went home.
ne 7/44= not old
the 1 pup brought in by yet another family last week? fine and went home (though the other pup they did not bring in died at home)
are all of these cases of parvo??
yeah, we're having a run on it, wolvie
oh man- that is bad. i am glad i keep my animals vaccinated. wow
hey Crossy
hey hego
lol. do you have the url for expert?
but given the dramatically abnormal mortality coincident with the owner "treating" the pups at home, I'm thinking she doomed them. I typically get about 85% (or better) survival on hospitalized parvo cases. I have NEVER had 4 of them die in the same night before.
that must have been horrible. I would feel so defeated
how devastating . . . jeez . . .
http://r46.me/BabbleExpert20110410.zip
the really horrible thing is this same owner has two more litters at home... so we may be on repeat over the next couple weeks.
ty so much, sweetie.
ugh.
np:)
good lord -- so is this a hoarding or puppy mill situation??
must make you want to pull your hair out jes
a breeder, yeah
gag
can you report a suspected breeder of improper handing and rearing of animals?
not a very responsible one it seems
not a hoarder, really, and at least they only half a half dozen bitches instead of 30+ like their neighbor... but shit.
fo6?
we kill puppy mills fast here
alt spelling for unborn baby
we have them all over the South . . . grim
tx wolvie
30 plus for the neighbor? omg- i would having an intervention -as in stealing doggies
de6/21 please
yw :-)
hahahhahhahahahahaa. oh god, i wish, crossy. nobody here cares. sheriff is too busy busting meth-makers and B&E's. they'd probably just say "well, doesn't parvo kill puppies all the time anyway? they might have died anyway, even if they did hospitalize them"
:(((
de6 get out of the canvas dwelling :-)
ugh jes- that is awful
thanks
i have now thoroughly lost my concentration. :-)
not that i have that much to begin with!!
we have even gone to the lengths of a new by-law.as of this year you cannot buy a cat or a dog,or rabbit at a pet sore.you can only purchace from a liscenced register breeder or adopt from a shelter uor humane society
ignore typos
hello everyone :)
hi nan
howdy cybernan
hey nan
crossy- this is for all of canada? cool
molly here?
saw a documentary last year where an expert was quoted as saying that nearly ALL animals in pet stores are ill . . . so sad
there's no humane society in this county, crossy. and no requirement for registration of breeders unless they are selling to pet stores. you can sell direct to buyers without being considered a "supplier" under current regs.
most of ontario,cannot speak for out of province
ok, was hoping to just put s on the end of the de6! lol
that is horrible jes
put a vowel on the end
USDA only requires registration if you are selling to another business...
i didn't know that jes- ty
thanks une
yw :-)
and that,is the root of the problem,anyone can start pumping out the puppies without regard to genentics or inbreeding and sell direct..what garbage
got the de 6-7, but still don't see it!
other states and/or counties are, of course, free to make more restrictive ordinances, but there are none here.
nan, it's kind of a "u" shape :-)
clue please for the de 6 - 7
got 8 left and they are all be words!
just clued, flosey
de6 get out of the canvas dwelling :-)
add vowel for de7
ok tks, just came back in
i mean good god! get with the program.all our humane societies and shelter in my area even have a no kill policy,we have foster families lined up to take any overflow untill they find a forever home.none get killed for want of space
ah - see it now!
around here, humane society's always BEGGING for fosters
thanks Une
yw :-)
sorry,pisses me off.our entire family heavily support the shelters with our time and care
i hesitate to foster any more -- am already a 3-time foster fail LOL
we all agree with you, crossy
foster fail- as in gave a permanent home?? :-) not a failure, really
here we have opposite,we have foster families waiting for the 90% capacity of the shelter to be reached so they can have a temporary fur baby
yes indeed we do crossy
yes . . . am incapable of fostering, then handing over to someone else :-)
that is the way it should be crossy- if only it were so here
lol keep them all une?
well at least they get a good home une. :-)
yes, crossy!
i am with you guys.
all of my animals were / are either feral (kitties) or rescues- doggies
don't see why we can't have an un-bashed in car
crossy, earlier this year I helped rescue and transport 2 adorable doxie mix pups -- they ended up with an organization in Ontario that placed them with wonderful adopters
we have a less than one year old new shelter built all on donation cash.the down donated the land,the local electric donates the hydro,the dump gives them free tipping fees and we have two local vets who offer care,spaying and neutering and microchipping..is good for everyone
too many people here that can't be hagged to take responsibility for their own, crossy.
I was AMAZED when they told me there was a waiting list for folks wanting to adopt!
very nice to hear une
it should absolutely be a word, nan!
there is indeed une
what a wonderful problem to have!!
i guess, depending on this election, i may be moving to canada, lol
unfortunately we have so many folks who see spaying/ne****ing as a negative thing
well, crap - ask them if they want a diabetic cat and 3 legged kitten to foster, crossy. I'll arrange transportation.
we have a long way to go wolvie,but we have also advanced in many areas
i have never understood that une, not one bit
lol we already have 2 diabetic cats at shelter now
way beyond the US i'd say crossy. :-)
Might even get to throw in the cat with the intestinal foreign body, if owner releases and she survives surgery...
at a standstill -- guess I'll list for the last 35
well, he'll fit right in, then!
we also have a 18 year old blind cat that was surrendered when her owner died.she is the shelter mascott now
one of my kitties had one of those intestinal foreign bodies- cost me a small mint, but he is fine today. Although we no longer have low hanging ornaments on our holiday tree, lol
aaawww
be5/24 please
be5 cover with morning moisture
this one's only 3 months old...
be and morning water medusa
any unadoptable or red zone animals often become shelter mascotts
the 3 legged kitten is about 5 months old; probably caught in a car engine
my guy was about 2 when he decided to try and eat plastic, lol
ty une
:-D
thanks
some of those be words are idiotic
didn't even know he had eaten it until 3 months later when it finally moved into a position that plugged him up. lol- that little rat never exhibited any symptoms till then and it was almost too late
good grief
my brother lost a 3 month old mastiff pup due to ingestion of stones
trust me- when the vet came and showed me what he had removed, it had partially digested and it took me a bit to figure it out. ;-)
ouch! i am sorry to hear that
off to watch Olympic tennis match -- good to see everyone :-) *poof*
ttfn!
yes,they operated,but missed 4 small ones,the post op sweeling jammed the 4 remaining ones badly.post op infection etc,etc and he was dead
i am also taking a break- ty for the good conversation and clues!!
I did send a rescue dog to canada a couple years ago - a golden retriever we took an intestinal foreign body out of.
oh crossy- that is so sad
bye, unea
bye, wolvie
so see everyone later- have a good one!
over 5 thousand in vet bill and they could not save him
bye wolvie
so sad crossy
yes,there are some good stories with the bad
du 7/36, please?
that is so true. and its the good ones that put a smile on your face

hi all! busy day today, barely getting started
nice clues in the chat, though!
Sue, my brother-in-law who works at Goddard on the Mars Rover has been on the news twice this week. They are very jazzed about Mondays landing.
awesome, Molly! I'm jazzed about it too although I am afraid to watch (get too nervous even though I know it's not live). Should get a lot of amazing data from it.
He mostly works on the SAM lab. I think his wife will be glad when next week is over. She hasn't seen him much lately. : )
I'll bet!
good evening all
hi sprite!
hey double u sue :)
nbt with the help of lickety; now to see if I can find the 8 for nbs.
nice going, sue!
which I did.
both our kids are away for the night and my love and I ate out. Just the two of us. So lovely :)
nice, sprite!
I forget, how old are your kids?
14 and 16 now
ah, a good age to get rid of for a while.
:D I love them to pieces, but I don't mind the occasional break!
exactly, and they're old enough that you're not likely to get tearful calls to pick them up because they're scared/lonely/hungry/whatever.
oh no. Just maybe a call to be picked up in the middle of the night, but that is good. I want them to call me, rather than have them going home alone.
indeed.
ha, the monkeys took over my fingers and found a word :-)
yayyy for the monkeys :)
oh sunset is gorgeous today! Just got heavy rain after a sunny day... and now the sun is just below the clouds. All those colours :)
sounds lovely!
always makes me happy
and I am half way. Better go do some work.
bye for now then, and good luck with the work, sue

Thanks much, Molly m'dear.
Molly.... I just picked up the first two books of that trilogy by Kathleen McGowan at our library !
I hope you like them Diane. I'm half way through the second one and I already know I have to go through them all again.
just by reading a little about them online, I know that I will. Kobo wanted $17.00 for each book, so I was pleased to see that our library had all three of them, and they were available.
I don't supposed anyone knows of a recipe that uses macaroni and raspberries?
good heavens... no ! That's quite a combination :-)
Sorry Harp, that is not my kind of combination.
well, it's just what i happen to have in abundance....
if you were on chopped you'd have to find a way :)
make rasberry spaghetti sauce?
then use it on macaroni
:-)) I thought there was a deeper meaning to that question !
or make a salad with macaroni, raspberries, and ...... what?
brie?
macaroni salad with raspberries
you can freeze the raspberries for winter time - I do it everyyear
Okay, sorry kids, but raspberry spaghetti sauce sounds gross.
I just finished my 48th jar of raspberry jam today... that's what I'm doing with most of mine... the rest, as they come, will be frozen for further use.
lol
raspberry chipolte is great on ice cream
Wow Diane. Do you eat all that jam in your house, or does some of it get given away?
make a nice raspberry vinagrette dressing for salad and make pasta with something other than berries
or save the raspberries and take the macaroni to the potluck?
diane can send me a case of jams any time
Ding! That is a winner Harp.
hi all, clue for the lone E?
Raspberry jam on a Thomas's English muffin is the best.
brb gonna make fried bolonga sandwich
I think the lone e is a line on a restaurant menu.
even i,the bacon master will not eat bologna..all sonouts and entrails
snouts
ty, molly. must go make dinner. bbl to finish
hi all
evening everyone :)
*handspring double-backflip with a twist in pike position for carlee* hey all
HALLLLOOOOOOOOOO in there...anyone here?
howdy carlee of the purple feet
woohoo...stiddy.... forward 1 1/2 tuck with a front hand spring
Hello carlee
howdy stidmama
*grin* hey katie!
and cross!
hi katie...crossy
carlee is waving her red and white pompoms for the can women's soccer team... WOOHOO..2-0 over GB
congrats to Canada your footballers were great tonight :)
yaaa for canada!!!\
thanks katie..it was a good match! ( and am currently waiting my GB scarf in the mail ....was sent today!)
They were the better team, I bought a programme for both the olympics and the football but my t-shirt is for the para olympics and I'm going to try and get tickets for that tonight
I didn't manage to watch the soccer match... glad you were there, katie! now I can say I know someone who actually saw one of the events live. :-)
it was great stid, glad to have been there now need to go to the olympic stadium
i cant wait for my scarf!...such a cool design
For NBT the E in the top row and the E in the fourth row down please?
which one have you gone for carlee?
my gf picked me up the olympic
not para
e in top row e 5/10 to consume some food in the past tense
oh dear, that was fishy! thanks katie
she sent me txt asking which one i wanted but was 3 am here when she sent it...so i didnt have say in matter..by time I got the txt ....she was home ( 5 hour time diff)
Can't get para tickets at the moment, hope some will be released nearer the time
( some fun words in here)
crossy still proudly wears his 1994 volunteer jacket from the winter special olympics we hosted that year:)
:-)
nice!!!!..i still have my mittons from winter olympics.... and the jean jacket is on sale right now....i am torn... cus that piece..20 years from now will still be a cool piece to wear
just scrolling back in the chat ( was away making a cole slaw ) Molly,... we share the jam, big time!.... with family and friends. I even take a whole dozen down to Arizona and share with friends there. :-)
I don't blame you. I had a bit of a row with a work colleague who was arguing it wasn't 'proper' sport. After I had ranted at him about how much more their achievement was due to overcoming adversity and prejudice he agreed that it was a really really stupid coment
I still have my fleece for Canada from the 2006 winter olympics - didn't wear it today lol
ahem. that E in the fourth row down please? Or was it clued and I missed it? My eyes aren't working as they should today.
what wasnt proper sport? ( carlee is confuzzled)
para olympics
WHAT?!?!?!?!?
I haven't got it stid, trying now
and cos...maybe I could take a little side trip on our way down and share with you too :-) ..... except we don't pass through Colorado
looking stiddy
thanks *feeling pretty inept right now*
en6/18 - a course, in French, of course.
my prized possession is my 1985 international youth year mug as it was the year I tended war graves in Germany. A humbling experience for a 17 year old giving me a real appreciation for the sacrifice of other generations.
HAZ!!! *too busy thinking to faint* how are you?
Don't faint, you might hurt yourself!
I know Carlee, my blood pressure went sky high. Luckily everyone else agreed with me
oh, that's the fourth column! which I also needed...
and the fourth row. *sigh* silly me -- musical works are not the same as courses in meals.
NBT!! :-)
What a beautiful table you set for the Jubilee, Haz -- I just love the pretty teacups
Thank you, it was fun to do.
{{{{Haz}}}} I haven't 'seen' you for ages
I am down to 65, this is a nice grid, but a little twisty
Hello, Katie - no, haven't seen you around so much. You're enjoying the olympics?
I hope all is well in your corner of the Emerald Isle?
We could use some more sunshine, stidmama, but otherwise I mustn't grumble.
loving it. Obsessed with the tv and radio coverage. Went to the football at Coventry this evening but trying to get tickets to the para olympics with no success at the moment. How about you?
I know about the sunshine... we have some today and expect some tomorrow so people are pretty happy about that. Maybe some of the berries will sweeten up now. Will send some your way.
I've been watching quite a lot - really enjoyed the tennis this afternoon.
Oh, and the cycling and the rowing. I tend to shout at the TV a lot, I'm not sure if it helps.
I don't think we are ever going to get sunshine again. My garden 'shot' during the sunny march and then what survived that hasn't ripened due to the rubbish weather
We can be glad that we don't face any prospect of sunstroke any time soon.
Shouting at the telly clearly helps Haz, the kitties may be having a nervous breakdown but it is helping me :)
poor kaite.we have had so mush sun and heat here above the norm that most lawns are dry dead,brown and crunchy
I've actually listened to a lot as we are fitting a new kitchen so don't have time to watch the tv
Standing up helps as well, it's extra encouraging.
Crossy we are more worried about sinking in a bog rather than brown and crunching grass. when we came back from the USA we had a weed in our garden which was over 6ft high and it rained every day we were away
well,lets trade,will send you some heat,you send us some rain
Deal :)
I know this is going to be a fish one but could I please have a clue for the A
ar5/10
ty Haz
You're welcome.
Okay, I'd better head off towards bed. Watching all this running and jumping and diving and rowing is tiring. Hope all goes well with your new kitchen, Katie.
funny stuff.i listed with 40 to go and found i have not a single do word
ty Haz. I'm off as well, sink unit to build tomorrow, have a good day all who have a day left :)

Doing ok, hon. We are getting a lot of rain and lightening now. The rain we really need but I can do without the stuff that goes with it. LOL
tadone!! finito
I love storms, but I can understand not needing the experience...A few times a year is enough.
Yay lbd!
Hey there, Ibdawger....look at you....congrats!
Evening, tor.
Kudos to LBD! this is a difficult grid for me, I am just at half way, btu i drank 4 sevings of Cuban Colada...
ty torgie, Peach and red :-) not too bad of a grid. dumb loch monster caught me a few times.
Heyas kids ..
Begorrah! Lookit all them be words ..
how's everyone doing?
I am good. have had a very nice week at work.
I had a very nice week at not work ..
Thats sounds perfect.
vacay>?
nice week not at work is good. at work is good too. :-)
The b's aren't all that bad, tor. I've seen worse. I've 2 left. If you want a clue just hollar.
Been on disability a couple months .. go back Monday .. :P
what did you do to earn disability, torg?
Just take it easy, tor.
dieb
diew
Sorry, I've got to get control of my fingers.
A nasty skin condition that was a staph infection or eczema or something .. I'm not sure they really know, but it's finally healing thanks to steroids ..
Bless you, tor!
oh goodness. do you know how the infection started?
Still don't know .. It started on my feet & ankles then spread over most of my body
But that's icky so let's talk about something else ..
yes.. this discussion is getting under my skin
oh my torg, I missed it. Glad you are better.
have you wanted to play baseball now tor?
being on steroids and all?
how frightening.
Yeah, I threw a wadded up piece of paper at the waste basket and knocked a hole in the wall ..
cool
steroids make one pettish
and now before i head to bed,it is time for crossys tidbit of the day,and today i offer up the onlu video of samuel clemons shot by his friend thomas edison in 1909,the year before clemons death...

crossy = bacon sundaes at burger king
You just don't know your own strength, tor. LOL
mmm
I so want to eat one of those bacon sundaes Mab. but...
not kosher
neat Cross, I am going to have to watch.
lol,poor mab,bacon is never kosher
Not just not on my diet.
it's ok.
but bacon seems to be in fashion.
doesn't it though. Bacon bandaids etc...
just another artery clogging item.
swine flu has just broken out too
I saw one flu today on my surveillance, embarassed, I never even looked at which type.
I used to get a filet mignon with bacon wrapped around ...with toothpicks....yummy.
Already, mab?
health officials advise washing hands thoroughly after patting a pig, and to avoid pigs that seem to be ill.
I wrap cornish game hens in bacon and roast them
yes. but hasn't spread to people yet, i don't think
what does a sick pig look like. why would one want to pat one.
aren't they bristly?
who'd pet a pig?
if I did.. it'd be a swine before its time
that's my point. but that's what health officials advise.
go ahead, pat a pig, they say, just sterilize your hands afterward.
not like I'd be hog-wild to do it
wouldn't it be better to offer them a donut first?
i'm sure they are very nice animals, and smart too, but i'd rather not pat one.
<---reverts back to the 60's
Pigs are super-smart
donuts?
crafty too
This conversation is a boar
bad joke mab.. skip it
i think maybe people shouldn
or bologna
't eat them.
then we'd all be jewish
they probably know they are going to be, you know, killed.
hmmm.. that's a depressing thought
i wonder if piggly wiggly supermarkets are still around.
I think so
I often try to avoid pigs that seem to be ill.
*imagines Molly putting a thermometer up a pig's butt*
well, i'm pretty sure the house is surrounded by rabid raccoons and skunks every night, put i rarely see a pig, not even in the day time.
Hello all! Back from the put...and yes the b4/6 was nice!
Ru, didn't Johnny Carson maintain that pigs are smarter than dogs?
they are smarter than most breeds of Dogs
Pigs are really intelligent
Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everybody doing today
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!
hi min!
Many of them are sowa cum laude
LOL
Boar-d certified
Way to go, Molly.
Dogs are much more cuddly though, probably because...pigs are smart enough to know not to cuddle?
hi min
I hear Vietnamese pigs are cuddly
did you know that wild pigs in germany are overrunning the country? it's because no one hunts them because they are radioactive from chernobyl. it's true.
Glow in the dark pigs. What WILL they think of next?
Oh gracious.
the father of a friend of mine used to go pig sticking in new guinea.
i can't imagine why.
W's Wobbled! 5 left
go Minver. I have 60 left...they are well concealed.
I guess whatever gives you your lardons

All I know is I will definitely be washing my hands after petting pigs from now on.
I would hope you have always been washing hands after petting Molly.
Man this is a tough room.
Sorry, you know I spend at least an hour a day talking about hand washing.
I am listing. 58 left.

extremely hot here. i'm going to take a cool bath and read and listen to jazz.
sounds great Mab, whodo you Love?
It is cold here, I have the wondws open...which is odd.
Goodbye mab! Enjoy your bath! I'll see you here tomorrow.
It's supposed to get to 36F tonight here!!
36. Well its like 78 here and that for us is really cold in August.
I must be brain deat no to see the be 4/8--any clues?
Hello ShadowHyrst!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
be + library books are **e in two weeks
hi Shadow, i have been looking for that too.

A be 4/8 word sounds like the be 5/24 word ShadowHyrst.
bedue
sorry.
I was distracted by Missy Franklin!
Minveryork--it has eluded me, it ws my lst one
Hi dawg! Did you see the projected lows for tonight? Yipes!
and thank you; all done for now, tougher than I thought when I started it--but they all are challenging in some ways with some words
Congratulations ShadowHyrst on your fireworks! Way to go
WooT WooT WooT shadow!
Rule for today...just add er, ed or s to a word...
congrats Shadow... 48 left for me, I am distracted...
ooooh track and field is ON! OMG I am so excited.
or the ne4/4 word to make a totally nonsense word Jillyjill
These unchallenging grids cause brain atrophy
Hello BabbleRabble! How are you doing? Welcome to grid.
I find it challenging BR...
Me too!
Hi all! Just starting. Need I ask how it's going?
Hello ChampFit! How are you doing? Welcome to the chog.
I am beyond glad to be in the chog and playing babble. Hard, goofy week...begone!
Hi Champ! So sorry you had a bad week. I had a very good one...which has been rare lately.
All except for the extremem cuban coffee drinking I did this afternoon.
Real estate in Texas is booming, but the mortgage side is still crazy, due to government craziness. So it's stressful... but done. But really, if I hadn't started off with a dead possum on my back porch on Monday, we coulda had a whole different story!
:D
I need to purchase a condo, but I am terrified, so I keep renting.
Red, if you have any thought of doing that, let me know and I can recommend someone. Just get a good agent who can walk you through. The process is daunting, no matter who you are. Thank you, Congress!
be5-14 the 3rd please.....thanks
But the POSSUM!!!! Dead. Tongue hanging out of mouth. Wet. Bloody. Dog standing over it. YUCK! Of course I was the only one home...HELLO!!!!
Rabies1
You think? I didn't see a scratch on either dog. Should I take 'em in?
My bigger problem is that the agents are so desperate to sell...they really dont help. For example, I had a short sale condo for 86K, the bank came back and wanted 110K, which I didnt want to pay, and the agent got really angry...
Champ, the dog is vaccinated, right???
Oooh so sorry to get you alarmed.
Yes, but still....
So the real estate business is booming in Texas? Does that mean the housing market is booming? *thinks how she can get her husband to move to Texas and out of her life*
Well, the sort sale thing takes time...they don't know where they'll settle until you get several offers in. Let's PM this...
Call the vet in the am, if your dog is vaccinated, there should not be an issue.
some other time too!
Minveryork...honestly...Texas never has big swings up or down...we're level. Currently, we're in a Sellers market as we have less inventory than buyers. But if I told you what it cost to live here, you'd move too. Cheap!!!
Champ are you getting the weather where you are in TX?
We finally caught up from the drought, so we're good. Dry at the moment, hurricane allegedly threatening. I believe when it hits.
the hurricane has caused a tropical wave for us, cooler, I actually have the windows open!
PUNK!!! Not cooler here.
yes in the high 70's
I could get whiny, but as I consider you a friend, I'm happy for you. Happy happy joy joy...can you tell? ;)
I can...I feel as if I am saving money. I mean it is August!
Thankfully, we have choice in energy providers. I've made it throug this summer pretty much unscathed.
Minveryork--thank you ; computer crashed, hence my belated response
be5-14 the 3rd please.....thanks
if someone is in love with you they may be Be***ted with you.
Thanks so much, red.
That looks weird in the present tense.
hi all
yes
Hello jmcnrick! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle
Hi JMC!!!
jmc!!! Hello!
i have used my ac 4 times this year. . . i record number of times since i moved to DC
don't forget to pl the be5
jmc you are amaing, I have need lately for AC. though not today.
well i am not in FL . . . i would use it more there
it gets pretty muggy in DC area.
haha it is less humid than houston. . . and most of FL
you think? I always remember it as very steamy in the summer....it sused to have a prob with malaria...back in the day.
well it is all relative. . . it is humid in DC if you lived any place except the more humid houston and much of fl. . . but the advantage of much of fl is the crosswinds because it is a peninsula
my skin dried out some when i moved up here
You know, i have not been outside of Florida in wuite a while in summer, I think I probably have no real way to compare.
haha i know that is not true because you run!
Sorry...obviously was gone for a while. My son was in Florida for 3 years, but he swore when he came back to Houston that it was more humid.
JMC...you do acclimate to the climate. It isn't easier, but it keeps you from death. how's that for uplifting?
that houston was more humid? probably depending on where you are in fl
i have acclimated. . . i survive the winter up here now :-)
N florida is really Georgia with a Fl title.
i didn't have any closed to** shoes when i moved up here
yes there are crackers in n fl and s ga
I have them, just don't wear them until maybe October.
And part of that is the "I'm gonna be 50 in a few months so I ain't wearing hose" thing.
I have a lot of closed toe shoes...and hose, love our dress code.
hose? hahaha i only wear that to court and only if i am not wearing sandals
You have to be younger than me...I wouldn't wear hose unless someone had a gun on me!
A BIG gun!!!!
i had to go out to buy some to tie to the end of my washing machine hose because i didn't have any
You crack me up!
who me? i turned 61 on tuesday this week
the big gun is my paycheck. but I admit, the hose I get feel like llight compression tights, so I tell myself that it is.
You probably look stunning in them. I just hate 'em. I can remember wearing them in the 80
's, and literally stripping them off in traffic. VaVOOM!!!
no I am not a stunning human...but if I want to not wear pants, I need hose.
I hate pants.
i wore them in the 60 and 70 but rarely in the 80s
in the 80s i just wore the ones with spangles when i went out
17 left, and now I want to stop...
well done red
but I need to finish, I have no reason not to.
I am hopped on caffiene and wont sleep anyway!!!
Go red!
because you are tire?

Goodbye 72 Templw Owl!I will see you tomorrow in the log
Begorrah!
hiyas tor
that's not in the grid torgir
I'm so sleepy, but my brother is dropping in from Ohio with my niece tonight
and he missed his exit
which is somehow my fault
and so I'm waiting up for him to get her
and texting new driving instructions to my niece
try adding ed and es to everything nrkii
get here*
I know. I just threw that out there ..
Wish that would work for last 2 words I have been stuck on
nope, did that
Heya nerky!
Thanks much, Min.
I have 17 out of 21... just can't see any other possibilities
I assume they are all BE words
All are be .. whaich do you need?
there is the person who turns themselves into pretzels
N's Nabbed! 1 left
or *which*
lol i guess there goes your night of rest.
yes all be words
sorry, just changing my icon and profile before retiring. hey je, why did 'tyo all torunce the phils? i am disappointed in those nats
I am finished! I have fireworks! fe 5/18 was my final word.
yay Min!
I will be here off & on to help clue for the rest of the night
do you have the one having to do with morning water...be5 and be7
Tor, not sure
whoo hoo min!
du7-36 please.....thanks....I have only two left.
ooh, thanks JMC... now have 19!!
i was disappointed with the nats too
Also a be4/8 that might sound like the be5 jmc clued ..
yes!
Here is a joke I received in an e-mail today.It might offend some. I don't mean to offend, but I think it is pretty funny.
do you have the be 5 and pl that mean be madly in love that is usually pt?
I kept trying every other version of the be4/8, but could not get it
du7 = balance du* + Loch ***
"Lord: >> >> I know that I don't talk to you that much, but you’ve taken away my >> favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, my favorite actress, Farah Fawcett, my >> favorite singers, Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson, and now my favorite >> banjo player, Earl Scruggs. >> >> I just wanted to let you know that my favorite radio announcer is Rush >> Limbaugh. >> >> Amen."
had the be5, not the be6... that does it for the B's!
thanks!
:-)
min LOL
wtg nrkii
Ha! Love it, Min!
Go nerky!
funny, but mean... I don't wish death for anyone
not meaning to take away from the humor, though , Min
Thank much, tor.
Me too nrkii
Min, that is really cute. LOL
true nrkii but cute joke
yes, but how cute would it be if we substitute another name there? Like, my favorite politician is Nancy Pelosi.... etc. All depends on your point of view, but that's why I'm cautious about those. Even though they make me chuckle.
and seriously Min, no offense taken here at all :)
okay, I have one US word, and one UN word
I need another U
Was also thinking of substituting another name too like my favorite presidential nominee is Mitt Romney
panties nrkii
ooh, double vowel, thanks
no death wishes for politicians . . . there are too many nuts who think it is permission
no death wishes for anyone, as tempting as it is, and as much as it may seem funny
I've seen that joke with our President's name in it, and I found it troubling
that is the best idea. . .
True, nerky .. A lot of humor just mean and is only funny in certain contexts
du7/36 please?
So we should try to be careful and not offend too many people in a public forum like this ..
yes i am writing a song for a skit tomorrow and trying to make it funny without offending is hard
te4-10 please, I have typed every way and I still cannot get it......it is the very last one for this grid....Thanks
and we are all quakers!
du 7/36: pay bills by the *** date plus gangster Elliot Ne**.
A blind cowboy walks into a lesbian bar ..
a rope walks into a bar...
ty min
The te4/10 rhymes w/babbler from Minnesota carolamaya
yw
the bartender says we don't serve ropes here. . .
so the rope goes out on the sidewalk, ties itself into a knot and fluffs up its ends and goes back into the bar. . .
the bartender says aren't you that rope that just came in here?
Here is a safe joke for all:what did one telephone pole say to another telephone pole? Wire are you here?
and the rope says "i'm a frayed knot."
wd min
What did one potato chip say to another? Are you Frito-lay?
LOL jmcnrick!
I meant are you Free to lay?
haha
Ha!
OK, tor, and what happened in the bar?
Ok, I just totally ruined that joke. I will stop w/jokes now.
the bartender says aren't you that rope that just came in here? and the rope says "i'm a frayed knot."
Good ones, Min and jmc.
He orders up a whiskey and says: "Hey, bartender. You want to hear a good blond joke?"
Can't resist one more:How come melons don't get married?
oh that bar! haha
because they can't elope!
haha
Ha!
LOL, Min.
A blond young lady sidles up to the cowboy and says: " That bartender is a blond with a bat and a pistol behind the bar, and she knows how to use them." ..
"That girl on your left is a blond, and happens to be a black belt in judo and karate."
"The bouncer is a blond and is 5'11" and 185 pounds of pure muscle."
The girl on your right is a blond, and just got out of prison for stabbing six cowboys in a bar fight."
pick up the pace here torgie
"And I'm a blond, and I'm a steelworker. You still want to tell that blond joke?"
The cowboy shakes his head and says: "Nah .. Not if I'm going to have to explain it five times."
*pulls up a chair waiting for end*
haha
HA HA HA HA!Good one tor. I needed that laugh.
See? A joke like that offends NObody ..
That was a good one, tor.
except blonds and a few lesbians. . . but my blond lesbian sister (i kid you not) told me that joke
It's an oldie but a goodie ..
Min, I can't think of a Babbler from Minn.
One day a bear walks into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender says,I'm sorry, but we do not serve bears. The bear says, "what?" "we don't serve bears"says bartender.
tenne
Sorry.
te4/10 = te + double consonants worth 4 points each
Then the bear says,"what do you mean you do not serve bears?" The bartender says, "sorry, boss's rules. We don't serve bears". The bear gets irate and says,"if you do not give me a drink I am going go eat that girl sitting at the end of the bar over there' The bartender says," do what you want,but we don't serve bears".So the bear gets up, walks to the end of the bar eats the girl. The bear goes back to his seat and says,NOW will you give me a drink?
The bartender says: Not only do we not serve bears, but we do not serve bears that are on drugs!"The bear says, "WHAT!". The bartender says, "that was a bar bitch you ate"
Love this one ..
wa? haha
Goodness, tor. Thanks so much, I always feel really silly when I miss the 4 letter words. That was it. See y'all at the flip. Thanks so very much for all the help.,

busy day stid?
Niters une...sweet dreams!
yes, and with a really bad migraine -- the kind that makes seeing hard, not the kind that makes you want to puke or hide your head. Of all the migraines this ocular type is the easiest for me, but still it's hard to function.
Hello stidmama! How are you doing? Welcome to the chog.
I made some jam and jelly, cleaned up a few things around the house and went to the Canoe Journey Protocol this evening (for the first time -- want to go back before it ends on Sunday).
sounds awful busy to me...
so sorry about the headache....*hands stid a cool compress*
brb
I had some "downtime" in between things. In fact, Tom made me lie down for a little in the afternoon -- very little, as the kid got home and the dog barked and woke me up! LOL
