Thanks.

6:44 am

disapointed Enable doesn't accept amore

6:45 am

french ok, italian nope

6:45 am

Knock off the e and add another vowel before the last letter

hi smores, gramma, lynx, crossy, all

6:47 am

I better get dressed for work. The problem with working at home is you can get caught in your pjs.

instead of italian, try the burrowing creature, smores

6:47 am

hi Shallow

6:47 am

Nobody clue anything until I get back.

lol

6:48 am

sure Gramma, sure

6:48 am

lol..gramma

6:48 am

I got that one shallow, thx

6:50 am

howdy shallow one

6:50 am

lol....if I would pay attention to the stats I wouldn't have been looking for more a's

6:51 am

oh, and good morning to ya Shallow :)

6:51 am

lol smores,i have caught myelf looking for more words on a finished grid on several occasions

6:51 am

thats when you know you are cronic

6:53 am

yeah, I was searching away, odd there are only 2 a's

6:56 am

yes,i found the one to do with love,but cannot find the second one

6:56 am

soap plant

6:57 am

or better as Shallow clued, a+ burrowing creature

actually i prefer the descriptive clues - the others are often just a hairs breadth short of spelling it out

6:59 am

or a & small dark raised area on your skin (and not freckles)

and when im at that stage blind or stuck with a babblet i dont hesitate to resort to morewords

7:00 am

me too Shallow, although I sometimes need it just a hairs breadth short of spelling it out...lol

7:00 am

w

7:01 am

nice lynxxx

7:01 am

love the Morewords

oh, i do too but as clue i prefer the trickier ones, and if im clueless - well theres the trust alternative

7:02 am

ty smores

7:02 am

or a+ a yummy mexican sauce made with chocolate...lol

*trusty

7:03 am

welcome crossy :)

7:03 am

i tend to do sescriptive clues unless it is a really tough one

7:03 am

descriptive

7:03 am

I've played too long I guess, I like the tricky ones too but seriously too many people used to complain and want really obvious ones - i caved in to it I guess

7:04 am

there is a fine balance between a good clue and just spelling it out

suppose so - some clues can be trickier than the word clued ;) (succeded at that several times, i think)

7:06 am

and i hate clues like this: "can i have a clue for the cr 11/65?" you plural the cr 10/58..."ok,how about a clue for that?" oh,it is the pt of the cr8/44..and it goes on and on till you say forget it,i have not listed,i will just hunt for the base word on my own thank you

7:07 am

never assume someone has listed when cluing

true

7:08 am

or has any cr words at all for that matter

7:09 am

sorry, crossy, I've done that b4

7:10 am

lol

7:10 am

i think we all have at one time or another

7:10 am

so,i just split the difference and do descriptives

7:10 am

what do you mean though when you say not listed yet, heard that several times

7:11 am

hello Babble friends :) How are things storm-wise?

7:11 am

using licketys list

7:11 am

7:16 am

7:16 am

to bow with fawning humility

7:17 am

7:17 am

7:18 am

7:22 am

howdy, sprite

7:22 am

good girl

mainly we were discussing how not to - and may be including a slight clueing we tried to spread some of our newfound humbleness

;)))

7:23 am

*bats innocent eyes*

7:23 am

was just talking about this amazing bit of peameal bacon i have in the fridge begging to be cooked up and nestled beside 2 jumbo over easy egss

7:23 am

I thought you said peanut bacon and I was sooo excited

7:24 am

peameal? Don't know the peameal

7:24 am

the pigs are fed peas and meal?

7:24 am

maybe add some home fries with green pepper and mushrooms,and some crunchy toasted english muffies

7:24 am

you guys call it canadian bacon

7:24 am

Ahhh

7:24 am

vs the standard streaky sliced bacon

7:24 am

bacon made of peas... fake meat ? :)

7:25 am

and what do I call it?

7:25 am

since we are in canada,we do not call it that lol

7:25 am

have no idea lynxx

7:25 am

I wonder why we would call it Canadian and Canadians wouldn't. I'd be proud of it if I were Canadian

7:25 am

i cannot guess with people who make vegemite lol

7:26 am

they might call it proudly "our bacon"

7:26 am

lol gramma,everyone knows the quality and with that we are content

7:26 am

we call it back bacon

7:26 am

yes,called back bacon as well

7:26 am

I call it delicious

7:26 am

never heard of canadian bacon, to be honest

7:27 am

i am told sprite,the stuff in the states is so terrible that it is advertized this way down south

7:27 am

I prefer streaky bacon - or middle rashers

7:28 am

I think we have our own bacon here as well... not sure if the stuff in the shops is imported. Don't think so.

7:28 am

crossy, lets not be dissing the states

7:28 am

my fave as well lynxx we have stuff that is maple kissed and applewood smoked

7:28 am

i would never do that gramma

http://tinyurl.com/5apwgk was curious, since i didnt know neither candian or peameal...

7:28 am

..would not want them to nuke us...

7:29 am

or turn canada into a northern 6 flags amusement park lol

7:50 am

7:50 am

he lost concentration - obsessing about bacon again

7:51 am

too much on the mind today i suppose.at 09:30 we are off to see the people at funeral home,then have to call lawyers,banks govt agencies,credit card people and on and on

7:51 am

it happens :)

7:51 am

oh no - sorry to hear you've had a loss, crossy. i didn't know :(

7:51 am

*hugs crossy*

7:51 am

you are a good husband Cross

7:51 am

yes welki,my elegants mother passed last thursday

sorry to hear, crossy

7:52 am

and since her elder brother had a stroke 2 months ago,she is executor by default:é

7:52 am

please pass along my sympathies, crossy

7:52 am

i shall welki

7:53 am

and since mum spent the last year telling each child there is money for each of them,they are all hanging round like starving hound dogs and it is not helping the process;((

7:54 am

the vultures circling. hate it.

7:55 am

tell them to get out of her face or the whole process will just take longer

7:55 am

it is amazing how they are all coming out of the woodwork.some have never called or contacted us since our wedding 19 years ago,but amazing! here they are on the phone chatting us up

7:55 am

sorry to be harsh but had a small taste of that

7:55 am

we are doing just that today lynxxc

7:56 am

we will make them wait a year,if they keep gumming things up

7:56 am

I'm baaaack :)

7:56 am

very good advice, lyn. They should be ashamed of themselves.

7:56 am

wb smores :)

7:56 am

awww {{crossy}}

7:56 am

it is sad,as soon as we cut them a cheque,they will vanish,never to be heard from again

7:57 am

'sorry mum is gone,sorry i have not viseted in 20 years,how much is for me and see ya!"

7:58 am

had they not seen her either?

7:58 am

can't imagine people even having the bad taste to do that

7:58 am

one even hit her up for it early while she was still with us..now that is terrible

7:59 am

hope that one isn't still expecting something now

7:59 am

heartless and without a speck of decency

8:00 am

well,we will get a copy of the final will today or tomorrow and we shall see.we have not seen the final one

8:00 am

today the wife and i go to secure the house or they will be stripping it like a old pork bone

8:00 am

think I'll just spend it all before I go...lol

8:01 am

that is often best smores

8:01 am

i had a great aunt who left it all to a shelter for abandoned kitties

8:01 am

give my kids what I want to give them ahead of time and instruct to donate everything else

8:02 am

whether they will get something or not will depend on the will, that is not for Elegant to decide, alas. Or luckily.

8:02 am

was just a hair north of 4 million bucks.my da and her hated each other lol

8:02 am

yes,living wills are best i think

8:02 am

wow..kinda bad yet kinda funny

8:02 am

may i have a clue for the lone u pls

8:02 am

yup..4 mil..for the cats hehe

8:03 am

here one can only give children or other people a limited amount each year, otherwise you have to pay a lot of taxes over it.

8:03 am

<-- has a sister in law who's put her name on the bottom of things she wants - turn over a tea cup and there's a sticker. wash a serving dish and there's a sticker...

8:03 am

hello sue, U + act again

8:03 am

guess that's one upside to being broke...no fighting when I'm gone...lol

8:03 am

yup

8:03 am

welki! Omg... awful.

8:04 am

wow welki

8:04 am

i am lucky that way as i have all the money i need to see me through to the end...as long as i die next thursday that is;)

8:04 am

wow Weiki - you do peel them off don't you?

8:04 am

ty, took a minute

8:04 am

off to do homework, yuck

8:04 am

you have got to be kidding me welki..

8:04 am

i say, take it all. i don't want anything, my husband doesn't want anything - just leave us alone.

8:04 am

how do your parents feel about that?

8:04 am

yvw and sorry, didn't know how to clue it clearer.

8:04 am

bye sue :)

8:05 am

no, i don't peel them off. let her think she's clever, i'm all for it

8:05 am

i would donate everything she puts a sticker on to your local re-use centre

8:05 am

if my kids or kids in law did that with my stuff, I'd give them a piece of my mind and peel it all off. Idiot.

8:06 am

indeed, crossy. Unless one of the others would want it, and I'd leave it to them in a codicil!

8:06 am

that is like being a circling vulture waiting for the cow to dies..terrible

8:06 am

when my grandmother died, it was the same as it is with crossy now - by the time i got to her apt to clean it, everything that had any dollar value was gone. i got what i wanted - her ancient bottle opener, some books, a double boiler - i did well :)

8:07 am

wtg welki :) You rock.

8:07 am

When my maternal grandfather died, only his children went to the house and split up the furniture - no spouses nor grandchildren (even if they were adults). Worked very well

8:07 am

but crossy, you've got a few tough weeks ahead - you'll need to indulge elegant and yourself

8:08 am

\\\

8:08 am

\

8:08 am

\

8:08 am

\]

8:08 am

but no indulging with the bacon, or all your good diet work will be for nothing

8:08 am

eh... smores?

8:08 am

sorry, keys were sticking

8:08 am

all good now..lol

8:09 am

:)

8:09 am

my poor used and abused laptop

8:10 am

8:10 am

and there was my silly brain trying to understand your cryptic message

8:10 am

yes crossy, be sure to take care of Mrs and yourself

8:10 am

good luck, crossy, and I am thinking of you both. *hug*

8:11 am

bye Cross - hope it all goes smoothly for you both

8:11 am

9:24 am

This has happened before. The chat part is fixed, but the Add Word box is still not responding.

9:24 am

No, we are merely gettin to MIssoula...fly out early tomorrow morning...

9:24 am

it's saying "you've already entered (word)"

9:26 am

The text is talking?

9:26 am

clever, eh? :-)

9:26 am

how far is MIssoula from you?

9:26 am

I'm running some diagnostics on the database, so things may be a little hairy for a few minutes.

9:28 am

just let me add a word

9:28 am

Okay. Things should be back to normal now.

9:28 am

Just an hour smores, but driving at night is a little nailbiting, deer and elk abound...

9:28 am

Thank you!

9:29 am

so you are spending the night and flying out from there?

9:29 am

9:29 am

Thanks, JT

9:29 am

10:10 am

bye une!

10:11 am

seems like outpee should be a word. I am sure I have seen guys trying to outpee each other.

10:13 am

try going shopping at the out.

10:13 am

ou6?

10:14 am

*ou6, I'll get it right yet.

10:14 am

ah, thanks.

10:16 am

back and hello

10:16 am

hi ruby!

10:17 am

hi all

10:17 am

you could probably go surfing in Lake Michigan!

10:17 am

the waves were pretty high, ruby!

10:17 am

and hi jmc!

10:18 am

hi jmc. Do you have electricity?

hi je

10:18 am

oh yes. . . it was a non-event in the jmcnrick household. . .although the boy lost power for part of the night monday

10:19 am

te7?

10:19 am

that's good news

10:19 am

how's your family TO everyone okay?

10:19 am

has anybody heard from Dorens in NJ?

she is ok. no power, tree damaged house some

10:20 am

not since yesterday, ruby, her power was out

10:20 am

dorens lost power and i have yet to hear it was on again

10:20 am

someone was saying it could be 10 days before it was on again - seems to me she's had some other multi-day outages recently

mine was out for 24 hours

10:21 am

the biggest impact on me was that the call center that runs the election protection hotline was in nyc and we had trouble with the phones as a result

10:21 am

she had a big outage this summer during derecho

10:21 am

my sister, who lives in Queens, was lucky -- no loss of power and the big tree in front of her house didn't fall

my immediate family is ok, south jersey lagoon house a big question mark, extended family near north jersey reiver flood unknown

10:22 am

oh, that's a relief, ruby!

10:22 am

i have not heard if my niece had issues with her apartment in brooklyn since she is stranded in manhattan

10:22 am

glad to hear TO

10:22 am

my niece's power is still out in NH

10:22 am

it is both hard and strange, being so far away

heartbreaking, je, just heartbreaking.

10:23 am

North Dakota put the Navy Reserves on alert. Looking for a ship and water should worse come to worse.

10:23 am

and annie, has anybody heard from her?

10:23 am

North Dakota has Navy Reserves?

north dakota has storm issues or is that some sort of attempt at a joke

10:23 am

*wondering where they park their ship*

10:24 am

No active Navy

cause we all know how funny this storm is

10:24 am

ND does get floods, though...

10:25 am

"there is nothing in life so serious that there isn't an element of laughter in it" Deitrich Bonhoffer from Nazi prison

10:25 am

and there is a big Navy training center north of Chicago

10:25 am

sister said 120 houses burned so far

i am talking about here and now sue and i would like an answer

10:25 am

well, if BR needs the Navy the rest of us are, shall we say, sunk

10:25 am

yes the fire in Queens is frightening

10:26 am

and sorry, TO, I know things are serious but as far as I know North Dakota is fine.

nothing from annie, i wrote her before the storm

je, mantoloking is burning today

10:26 am

breezy point is also where they had a big plane crash about a year after 9/11

10:26 am

There were high winds in Ontario, though, carleekat put a link up to some pictures from her town

10:26 am

so did I, TO

10:27 am

too bad. . . at least most of the storm has moved on so they can deal with the issues that have arisen

ah, i see, a hit and run snipe

10:27 am

North Dakota does have a Navy, TO. Take your crap elsewhere.

10:27 am

... nothing much happened up here except for one fatality in Toronto when a pedestrian was hit by flying debris

10:27 am

and I heard from my dad yesterday, he was ok but had no power, but haven't heard anything from him today. Yesterday his living room was at 65 degrees, which is ok but if it gets much cooler than that I worry about him, he is 91 after all

i will do as i please your joke about the storm is in questionable taste

10:28 am

goodness! goes to show you should stay home in a big storm

10:28 am

... no major power outages ... and my street which is crowded with one hundred year old maples which have all seen better days didn't lose any major branches

10:28 am

am currently dealing with serious issues much more personal and close to home, though, and will go walk the dog now. Some details in my profile if anybody cares.

10:28 am

a woman was killed in Brooklyn, jobbig when hit by a falling branch

10:28 am

jogging*

10:28 am

You assumed it was a joke...you are the joke for getting bent out of shape

yes ruby, lots of that unfortunately

10:29 am

hello...can anyone tell me why 'lordy' isn't accepted!?

10:29 am

I have much more sympathy for the folks who lost everything: photos, letters, their whole histories

10:29 am

... probably too slangy

say what you want, the joke is on you and i will engage you no more

10:29 am

no phae i can't tell you

10:29 am

tried lordy, too

10:30 am

You attack me all the time ... you have issues

10:30 am

did you all find ro4, the weird rough therapy?

10:30 am

11:38 am

Pretty wicked there, I'm sure.

11:38 am

we left sunday morning. I think it got worse after we left.

11:39 am

We were on the outer banks a couple of years ago during a tropical storm. That was enough to convience me to not hang out there during a hurricane.

11:43 am

yw.jurshy did you see the national cat day webpage?

11:45 am

no i didn't!

11:47 am

how do you get to be a national cat?

11:48 am

you have to be in a nationally televised cat product commercial, i think :)

did you celebrate with your kitties?

11:50 am

i guess i did, though i didn't know it, since i got to stay home with them all day!

11:51 am

now this storm makes sense - it was God's wrath against previous failure to thoroughly celebrate national cat day...

well, cats need to be celebrated every day. actually, if you ask them , they need to bo HONORED. it's their due.

11:52 am

it's true. luckily they assume that when you are silent you are worshipping them.

no doubt.

11:53 am

i was so hopeful when i got all the left F's, but then i could only get 2/3 of the right F's.

4:22 pm

I wish I could. But it's the same day as my daughter-in-laws birthday, girls day/night out. So sorry. I hope you have a big turn out.

4:22 pm

it does not look like it will be a big turn out :(

meetup is in the grid :0 too bad it doesn't count

4:23 pm

so it is

4:23 pm

Really? I'm surprised. There are so many people central to that location.

4:24 pm

yes, but obviously people are busy doing other things. margiold is not going. dc is not coming. don't think jmc is either.

4:25 pm

the location is just fine but timing is everything. don't know if Brookie would be willing to change the date. I will ask here. but now we are coming into the major holidays.

4:26 pm

so far it is Brookie, me, hego and her husband and Judi from Del. I (at least I think she is coming) and someone else contacted Brookie. I think that is 6

4:26 pm

People seem to be busier this time of year than they do other times. I'm so sorry your turn out is not what you hoped for.

4:26 pm

there were 8 people at the meetup I arranged in 2010

4:26 pm

I know Brookie is disappointed

4:26 pm

8 was a good number

4:27 pm

she was expecting 10-15 but I knew that woulde not happen

4:27 pm

Wow, no one else from Jersey? Or Pennsylvania? I'm sure you will have fun though.

4:28 pm

I have never been to the Riverfront Market. will take me at least 45 min to an hour but It should be fun and there are other things to do around there

4:29 pm

not all Babblers are on FB. so either Brookie or I (or is it me) post a reminder in the chat daily.

4:29 pm

periwinkle, are you peri? where is your purple baloon?

4:29 pm

one and the same, bichon. balloon is on hiatus. will return tomorrow.

4:30 pm

I am discombobulated

4:30 pm

ahhhh, done with f's and was still looking :)

4:30 pm

teehee, me too bichon, me too ( love that word )

4:30 pm

I'm going to be fostering an ill Bichon. I have to nurse him back to health for a Bichon Rescue Org. I'll post his picture soon

4:31 pm

FW. last word was me4/6. I never seem to see those cat soundes'

4:31 pm

I'm really surprised JMC isn't coming. She's gone a lot further than that for Babble meet ups.

4:31 pm

I have the to 6/24 which means sighseeing. Is there another?

4:31 pm

*sighseeing

4:31 pm

when she came to the one in 2010 she drove down with dcsean. I was hoping that would happen this time. but I do not think either of them has much money.

4:32 pm

8sightseeing

4:32 pm

hairpiece is the other one, bichon

4:32 pm

why can't I type right?

4:32 pm

ty peri

4:32 pm

I have not seen her to ask her. has she been on today?

4:32 pm

yw.

4:33 pm

Sighseeing...what happens when you spot George Clooney. : )

4:33 pm

well here goes: Babble Meetup on Nov 10 at noon at Riverfront Market in Del. All are invited.

4:33 pm

LOL Molly

4:33 pm

I really miss the discussions re George and Haz and Scrabbler and FM

4:33 pm

where is Crossy. Haven't seen him today

4:34 pm

I miss discussions period. Chat has gotten very strange lately.

4:34 pm

well, I am going, may be back later.

4:35 pm

it has. I miss lots of babbler both dead and alive. Nancy Boy, FM, Ata, LoriP, FranMag, ping

4:37 pm

Don't forget Muns

4:38 pm

She was the 1st person to talk to me.

4:39 pm

I miss Nancy Boy every time I log into Babble. Hey all. So happy Sandy left you reasonably unscathed.

4:39 pm

Hi Soodle.

4:39 pm

Hi Soodle. Sandy was kind to us too

4:41 pm

As long as we're tripping down memory lane...Do you remember the name of the person who faked a boyfriend or some such nonsense?

4:41 pm

Maybe she played under two diff. names

4:43 pm

Must have been before my time, Gramma. Unfortunately, it's very easy to "fake" stuff on the internet. And people are very gullible.

4:44 pm

I remember it happening but not her name, all very strange

4:45 pm

It was quite the scandal at the time.

4:46 pm

wasn't there another one couple of people we thought were the same ones pretending to be friends? maybe not my memory fails me lol

4:46 pm

I don't remember that, I've been around for a while

4:47 pm

The worst thing I have seen here is the "arrangement" to collect money for a certain player in need, and that money never getting to that person. I think that caused a lot of distrust here and chat hasn't been the same since it happened.

4:47 pm

hi again all!

4:47 pm

Hi bichon and uusue

4:47 pm

I'll go look in the stats and see if anything jumps out at me. I thought someone would remember.

4:47 pm

hi katie, bichon, gramma, molly!

4:48 pm

I missed all that Molly I know who it was meant for but didn't realise that it hadn't reached them

4:49 pm

Well Katie, that is how the story was told. I know a lot of people felt deceived by the whole thing. Shame.

4:49 pm

Yes, that whole episode was distressing.

4:49 pm

We have had controversy over the years. JC divided people. There was a guy who used to play (and I can't believe I have forgotten his name as we were 'babble' close) who used to type in German and Dutch quite a lot which caused a stir and other fall outs that have happened along the way

4:50 pm

On the other hand, we had an awesome meetup at Bugsaw's this summer - I was SOOOO happy that I was able to go! And I would totally be going to peri's meetup if I were still retired.

4:50 pm

hi sue, any news about Frank?

4:51 pm

in my profile, bichon, doesn't look good but we still don't know anything definitive

4:51 pm

Bichon is it your Granddaughters birthday today? If so I hope she had a lovely day

4:51 pm

Nothing caught my eye in the rankings. It was quite a while ago

4:52 pm

Who was it that collected the money? My mind isn't great tonight

4:53 pm

Fingers crossed for the results on Friday/Monday Sue

4:53 pm

thanks, katie - we are trying to stay positive but it is hard

4:55 pm

We have been through some stuff as a community, births, marriages, break ups, illnesses, losses of loved ones and even losing some of our own, that's what usually shows up how strong a community we are.

4:56 pm

You are so right

te 7 clue pls?

4:57 pm

not there yet TO but I'll look

4:57 pm

te7...first three of what you dial + make of car

4:57 pm

in fact i've been through a break-up, dating for the first time in 15 years, marriage and illness in my time here, and I've had you all at my side :)

4:57 pm

Love the sign, TO. : D

ty *thinking*

4:58 pm

ty Molly

that is the name of a town near here

4:59 pm

I remember when I first was single I would play late into the night as I lived on my own for the first time ever and hurshy would clue me whilst I worked with a printed list and a word book. Amazing how much that helped through a difficult period

4:59 pm

And TO has ALWAYS been here :)

! I feel that old , too! ;)

5:00 pm

It seems from your stories of the original days, things were more intimate then.

remember when not everyone finished? and BJ'slist?

5:00 pm

It was a smaller group

5:01 pm

The majority of chat now is clue requests and cluing, which is difficult to join in on if you like to find words on your own.

5:01 pm

It was BJ's list I used to print out and I very very rarely finished (no change there then). I had a hamster called Fuggles who played in his playpen at my feet whilst I did the grid.

5:02 pm

well, it may not be the good old days, but I have found a lot of friends here, and support, and am very grateful to have all of you in my life.

seems lots os folks were here to fill a void le4 by hard times

5:02 pm

I printed out the list also. And I find comfort in my fellow Babbleonians

5:03 pm

It was a smaller group but everyone tended to come on at the same time of day so you had small close groups and I see that now as well. Not sure it has changed that much it's just the people who change. Winter is coming and we will have a flurry of new people

so some come and some go and when the need goes the nature of the realationship changes

5:04 pm

Sometimes I feel like there are so many people chatting that I don't know. I just stay quiet

5:04 pm

and that's what is so good about this chat someone is always here to commiserate, keep you company or celebrate with you :)

5:05 pm

anyway I am going to go hang out with Frank for a while (he is in the next room, but I'm not :-). Maybe I will babble on my ipad from there. ((((babble)))))

5:05 pm

that was in response to TO. You should just jump in gramma, if I get no response I take the hint and go back to the grid but I sometimes meet lovely new people

5:05 pm

Night sue xx

yes. relfection of life

5:06 pm

My kids are here. BRB

night uu

5:08 pm

I'm off to bed as hubby has already gone up. He's not feeling too good (man flu) and his team are losing in the soccer so a bit of sympathy will go a long way tonight. take care all and remember today is tomorrow's good old days

my goodness kaite, how many babblers have we helped through such crises?

well hopefully helped, sometimes the familiar is a help

night kaite and all

5:11 pm

you are right TO it is a place of safety when people need it and I hope we have helped. I have laughed and cried with people and exposed more of myself here than I would to anyone but my closest loved ones and have never felt judged. I still miss Nancy Boy and FM but again that is part of real life when you lose someone who touched you

nearly a year for fm. but some folks take exception to that type of talk so i will light my candle and keep silent.

5:13 pm

right night all *poof*

ngiht

5:16 pm

I don't take exception, TO. Nice of you to remember.

5:42 pm

Good morning / evening. Hope you're all well.

hello liz

6:45 pm

hey all, sorry I missed Katie (I remember fuggles...)

6:45 pm

how's the grid?

hi stid

6:45 pm

hey stid. just arrived myself after getting the pumpkin carved

i;m having trouble but only because I'm not focusing!

7:02 pm

Hi again - back from breakfast - off to walk on the beach soon - it's a hard life! Believe me, I know how lucky I am!

7:03 pm

sounds like a great life Lizlin

7:04 pm

It is - but I realise it even more after seeing all the devastation on the east coast - and after the cyclone just north of here not so long ago.

7:05 pm

appreciating what we have is often overlooked isn't it?

7:05 pm

So true - need to grasp every moment

7:07 pm

*lounges on roof deck with a glass of Jack*

7:08 pm

Sounds good to me!

7:08 pm

<==actually sitting in front room waiting in vain for trick or treaters

7:08 pm

What? Do you toss candy over the dege to the kids at the door?

7:08 pm

*edge

7:08 pm

JMC so good to see you enjoying the day after all the devastation we are seeing on the news

7:08 pm

i was unscathed. . .

7:09 pm

We had one group of 7 kids - all at the same time and no one else - quite happy about that!

7:09 pm

do you get many kids usually jmc?

7:10 pm

I had some cute younger ones. They are my favorite. They are so into Halloween. : )

7:10 pm

Delighted that you were unscathed - hope that's true of many

7:10 pm

we hardley get any because just down the road is a whole mess of duplexes where they can get double the driveway. ;)

7:10 pm

had a baby who didn't take any candy and two teens and . . . no one else so far

7:10 pm

it is true in DC to a great extent. . .

7:10 pm

it's become such a commercial thing here and in the UK - never used to be

7:11 pm

I like the little ones too Molly. The big ones just want food. The little ones will tell you all about their costume and why they chose it

7:11 pm

how odd my babble page got small some how

7:12 pm

Lizlin for some reason I thot it was a North American custom only like Thanksgiving

7:12 pm

Ours showed off their costumes and reminded us about what they wore last year. Funny watching them grow!

7:12 pm

That is exactly what these kids did. One little girl went on and on about how she and her little brother were bats. She seemed very pleased to be one too.

7:12 pm

alas the baby just wanted to pet the cat and i had to prompt the teens to say trick or treat (otherwise they get nothing)

7:12 pm

nice molls

7:13 pm

ah fixed the screen

7:13 pm

I don't mind these - a few years ago we had some unpleasant kids, who were just sooooooo greedy! The 4 of them just wiped out our supplies by grabbing. Now we bag up before! Learnt our lesson - but they've not been back!

7:13 pm

but i ate the baby's share of my candy :-D

7:13 pm

firewords. last one was a hairpiece

7:14 pm

whoo hooo bugs

7:14 pm

I bought stuff I didn't like! Threw out the little that remained - kinder to me!

7:14 pm

anyone want clues before I go light the pumpkin and get ready for kids?

7:14 pm

Congrats bugs

7:14 pm

it was only one piece

7:14 pm

LOL jmc

7:15 pm

god plan Lizlin. I only buy what I like in case not enough kids come

7:15 pm

ok, I am poofing. See you late and be safe

7:15 pm

Enjoy the evening

7:16 pm

bye bugs

7:16 pm

my phantom is murder

7:16 pm

Appropriate phantom for Halloween

7:17 pm

perhaps not surprisingly, mine is koala

7:17 pm

wo4/11 seemed good too

7:17 pm

haha liz

7:18 pm

Awooooo

7:18 pm

I thought they'd be more linked to the date but I guess, random is random!

7:19 pm

Happy Holloween Babblers

7:19 pm

hi wht

7:19 pm

hi there wht

7:20 pm

i am giving up on t-or-t at 9

7:20 pm

sounds reasonable - hope the t or ts agree!

7:21 pm

We have had more kids than we expected, but still not a lot.

7:21 pm

i will turn off the porch light and blow out the candle

7:22 pm

will they accept that? here they knock at the door with no obvious invitation

7:22 pm

yes it is pretty much expected here. . . you leave your porch light on if you are open to them

7:23 pm

i like that idea

7:23 pm

no light no candy

7:23 pm

Here the custom has always been to only knock on doors where the light was on. I remember that from when I was a kid in the dark ages.

7:24 pm

when i was a kid we knocked on door with the lights out . . . more spooky. . . but we only did our own block and we knew everyone on it

7:24 pm

There were lights in the dark ages?

7:24 pm

I think that although the kids in our street knock on all the doors, I'm not complaining. They're quiet and polite and even though some are older, parents are still there at the end of the drive.

7:25 pm

haha not electric ones anyway BR

7:25 pm

Kids don't trick or treat like we did. Sadly, it is a different world.

7:25 pm

they are more likely to go to a party then i was. . .or my boy

7:25 pm

Yes - always glad to see the parents

7:26 pm

I see the kids walking around with little plastic pumpkins for their candy, and think of the pillowcases we used to take.

7:27 pm

i had a milk carton for unicef

7:27 pm

hmm - who gets more sweets (candy) or lollies to adopt the aussie term

7:27 pm

I remember the boxes to collect for UNICEF.

7:28 pm

I had a pillow case. But it was the rare house where we got a candy bar. It would be apples, popcorn balls and lots of candy corn and such.

7:29 pm

i do have reservations about all the sugar! but don't think healthy stuff would be appreciated!

7:29 pm

we mainly got money for unicef. . .occassional candy

7:30 pm

i would freeze it and do** it out through the year. . . usually took me to christmas candy

7:31 pm

which i would freeze and that would get me to easter. . .but easter never made it through the summer

7:32 pm

lol

7:40 pm

Popcorn balls are awesome. Too bad you can't give out homemade treats anymore.

7:41 pm

popcorn balls?

7:41 pm

It just shows our level of paranoia, since all the reports of poisoned candy turned out to be urban legends.

7:42 pm

I went to Catholic school and before they started making us go to school on holy days of obligation, the day after Halloween (All Souls Day) was a day off. My friend and I would always have a sleepover on Halloween night.

7:42 pm

And tell spooky stories, so you couldn't sleep ??????

7:43 pm

That and gorge on candy. : )

7:43 pm

Oh - the day after!

7:43 pm

Tummy aches galore!

7:44 pm

I never got a stomach ache from too much candy. Or, as my friend's mother refers to it, The Chootalooskas.

7:44 pm

Good - me neither!Off to enjoy a walk on one of the beautiful beaches here. Back later. Enjoy your evenings.

7:45 pm

Evening all. May I please have a clue for pe6-21? Thanks

7:45 pm

Rhymes with what you make the tea in.

7:45 pm

Rhymes with part of a flower

7:47 pm

Thanks much, Molly and Lizlin.

7:54 pm

evening all

7:54 pm

*opens door to PB for Lizlin*

7:55 pm

Does the middle of nowhere have a lot of snow, jes?

7:56 pm

right now we have rain, bab. had about 1/8" snow last week, but it promptly melted.

7:57 pm

Hi Jes. I think Liz laid down her PB violation and then took off for the beach. Sneaky. : )

7:57 pm

hah, parting gift :)

Hi Jess

7:58 pm

heya lady

I am going have a great day

8:05 pm

REady to leave for beach now - sorry about violation - shows what happens when in hurry :( Bye all for now

Is it Min? Is it Hego? It's a Halloween trick. : )

8:19 pm

Why is that you? You kinda make me think of smoking man a little from x-files

8:19 pm

The famous Jersey shore will have to be completely rebuilt.

My de 4/8 hands were able to type most of the words. I have fo4/7 words le4/7 so here is a story of clues fr 4/8 Minveryork. As Sandy to 4/4 through people's to 4/7s, I fe 4/7 guilty for not losing electric & having no damage when many fl 4/8 their houses due to the overfl4/11 of water coming from the sea. The up 6/45 of the fo 4/8y water from the ocean fl 6/42 all over parts of NYC and Atlantic City. Sandy fl 4/9ed many residents. However, others fl 5/18ed at the thought of having to leave their homes.I do not like it when people lo4/5 at warnings to evacuate. It delays rescue workers me 4/5ing the needs of others to rescue people who did not listen in the first place. Now in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy,we are ro4/5ing around saying, "Holy to 6/321! Look at all the mess!" I hope that Obama to 4/5s the devastated cities and has FEMA help people who cannot affo4/8 to re4/5 everything over again.When all is said and done though I'm glad the Lo4/5 didn't let Sandy take too many lives. Hubby wants computer. I fr4/7 what he will do if I don't give it to him. I am going to go watch Steve Martin play the ro 4/4 of a scoundrel in Dirty Ro5/10n Scoundrels. I hope you have found some mo4/5 words with this story.

Hello all -- just visiting briefly to show you my Halloween Boo

11:10 pm

Which is just about over back east and well over across the pond and down under.

11:11 pm

I turn out all lights and put out no pumpkins -- there are almost no kids in the area.

11:11 pm

hey, jilli. just read the up-date in your profile. great to see the good news.

11:12 pm

thanks, granny. It looks less worse each day too, but still would be a Halloween scare.

11:13 pm

lol, i'd be a halloween scare, and i haven't had surgery!!!

11:13 pm

still took in a sample for C.diff test yesterday -- no news yet

11:14 pm

What bosh, granny!

11:14 pm

prayers being said for good news there too.

11:15 pm

thanks, granny -- didn't get a flu shot, saving immune system for immediate possible needs

11:15 pm

had a lovely chat with mrp the other night. poor darling is so stressed. i don't know how she can hold it together. am worried for her and the children.

11:15 pm

(This is flu shot season here)

11:16 pm

oh, i did mean to ask, did the storm affect any of our babble friends?

11:16 pm

Granny, mrp has me mystified. Please email me as to the true story -- address at the end of my profile.

11:17 pm

will do jilli.

11:18 pm

I believe it affected quite a few on the east coast -- Hego among them, still with no power as far as I know.

11:19 pm

Thanks, granny. I need to know.

11:20 pm

hello jill

11:20 pm

and all

11:21 pm

Hi stiddy -- comment ça va?

11:22 pm

bien, et toi?

11:22 pm

comme ci comme ca, hahah

11:23 pm

I have been teaching every day so far this week and about to go to bed because I do it again tomorrow! LOL I am about to run out of appropriate teacher clothes and might have to resort to the jeans and school colors of the regular teachers on Friday...

11:23 pm

jilli, have emailed you. should be there in a few minutes. please email me right back, so i know i have the correct addy.

11:23 pm

un peu ivre maintenant

11:23 pm

brb

11:23 pm

I see you have had a health issue (or two) that I was unaware of... *petulant mama look* how can I put you on my list if I don't know these things???

11:23 pm

and cooee stiddy. nice to see you, hun.

11:24 pm

cooee to you as well dear grannyrose -- how's the knee?

11:24 pm

I didn't know ivre, not a word that I have ever needed! LOL

11:24 pm

oh oh... I forgot Lucky's nine o'clocks. brb

11:25 pm

betterer and betterer. went 6 hours without pain meds today.

11:26 pm

very nice! :-D

11:26 pm

so just to be clear... "cooee" means -- hey there, notice me, yes?

11:26 pm

and does anyone need clues? because I have all the words.

11:27 pm

I have about 5 minutes until I turn into a pumpkin and the handsome prince goes elsewhere.

11:27 pm

yes....or where are you? or hello, saw your light on, thought i would drop in.

11:27 pm

actually handsome prince has already gone out to retrieve the offspring who went out with his girlfriend tonight.

11:28 pm

okay, cool. I love learning new words.

11:28 pm

btw, grannyrose, I am not in contact with mrp, but please do add my love the next time you communicate? I think of her and her darling children often.

11:29 pm

will do stiddy. she does miss her babble buddies, but is very busy being a single mum.

11:30 pm

I understand. :-(

11:32 pm

well... if no clues are desired, I shall toddle off to bed. I find it hard to get to sleep if I stay up this late, but I had to do some prep for tomorrow. And my power was off for over an hour earlier so I had to wait for it to be on. You know... and then it takes longer than I plan for and before you know it, it's morning. SO glad I have always made it a habit to get the classroom totally ready for the next day before I leave! I will be dragging myself in early tomorrow in case a student follows up on his request to arrive early to finish some work. :-)

11:37 pm

sorry, stid -- I was answering granny's email. Did you look at my profile re face probelms?

11:37 pm

I guess she's gone :-(

11:39 pm

I did, jill -- was checking on something in another screen.

11:39 pm

Too bad you covered it up, would be a perfect look for this evening... *wicked mama grin*

11:39 pm

are you otherwise okay? face and digestion aside?

11:43 pm

I have to go, will be 5:00 before I know it. (for some reason I wake up then no matter when I go to sleep -- my alarm doesn't go off until 5:30). ((((Jill)))) ((((grannyrose)))) *POOF*

11:53 pm

I'll return in a bir for the flip..hope everyone's Halloween went well

11:53 pm

xx stid -- bye

11:54 pm

My Halloween went very well -- no visitors, which is what I wanted. But all the people working in the stores, and lots of little kids, were dressed up this afternoon.

11:55 pm

And I'll be baaaack for the flip...

11:55 pm

my neighbors reported an extrmely quiet day, expecting many and getting a handful only. All is well in the land of peace and quietness.
