Melon... you can't talke the lo4's name in vain...

1:09 am

Aaah, me too - East Hollywood

1:09 am

Pasadena

or5—a word form my grad school days (:

1:10 am

How long have you been here?

But it's a term of endearment, SpellC!

1:10 am

I've lived in this area since 1964. Before that a time in Manhattan Beach, then near USC.

1:11 am

Oh, Bel Aitr, San Francisco, then MB

1:11 am

*Air

1:11 am

Really? I've only ever heard it used in exasperation...

1:12 am

How long have you been in the area?

1:12 am

I have a friend who is opening a Sushi and Sake bar in MB this weekend.

1:12 am

SpellCheck, you've not been to a Shern Baptist church

1:12 am

Hubby dragged me out here kicking and screaming when we got married. We had a bi-coastal dating relationship.

1:13 am

Where are you from?

1:13 am

oh my favorite restaurant in LA is in MB

1:13 am

NY.

1:13 am

Really ru? Do tell...

1:13 am

Manhattan Beach Post.. wonderful food

1:13 am

Back in 1962, we used to go to aJapanese rest. in MB - first time I had sushi (and sake)

1:13 am

that and AOC on Melrose

1:14 am

Haven't been there in 50 ye5

1:14 am

I guess I should plug the restaurant. RICE 820 Manhattan Ave. Suite 105, Manhattan Beach, CA. (310) 798-7722 ( ricemb . com)

1:14 am

MB Post is fantastic

1:14 am

I'll keep it in mind.

1:15 am

googling MB Post now.

1:15 am

oh I'll check rice 820 out too

1:15 am

We lived on teh Strand - front door was six feet from the beach.

1:15 am

Ru the 820 is part of the address.

Sorry if I offended you SpellC.

1:16 am

I really wanted to live at the beach when we moved out here. Hubby worked in Culver City then, but I couldn't stand how close together the houses were.

1:16 am

No offense taken Mel. I don't know what I said to give you that impression. I am not religious, so no talk like that would bother me.

1:17 am

I also love Rustic Canyon and Chinois on Main in Santa Monica

1:17 am

so many great restaurants in LA

1:17 am

they're countless

1:17 am

Are you down here often Ru, your profile says Napa.

whew. I wasn't sure. I thought you meant it about names in vain and such. so, we're col? ;)

1:18 am

We had a four bedroom basement (Husb.-to-be + four friends), then I moved in. Huge place. Owner didn't want to run the risk of rotten young men-tenants, since she had teenaged daughters.

1:18 am

I come to LA 5-6 times a year

1:19 am

I'm really stuck now

1:19 am

Actually, we're vegan, so restaurants are a bit more challenging for us. I really hate to reinvent a dish. I always feel if the chef hasn't designed the recipe you really don't stand a good chance of getting a better htan home cooked meal.

1:19 am

I think they have lots of vegan choices there.. you'd have to ask though

1:20 am

Ru, have you been to Lucques in West Hollywood? Best meal I've eaten in my lifetime.

1:20 am

I love lucques and know the chef and owner very well

1:20 am

Mel. we are completely cool. I don't know if you or I have offended anyone else though. ;-)

Doubt it. we're a laid back bunch here.

1:21 am

<---holds breath in case someone gets offended

1:21 am

Well, you can tell the chef that she's getting good press from us. She made a special vegan meal for hubby and me, and the other 4 in our party raved about there meals

1:21 am

Mel... you can't fool me. I'm a lurker. I know better ;-)

1:21 am

<--- absolutely refuses to be offended, so there. ;p

1:21 am

suzanne is immensely talented

One thing keeps me from vegan—cheese

1:21 am

Is that Suzanne Goins?

1:21 am

yes

1:22 am

Chris - I get that. Teenage girls can be quite forward. I was one once.

1:22 am

AOC is their sister restaurant SPell

1:22 am

I think I knew her when she was a little'un.

1:22 am

small plates...lots of veggie choices

1:22 am

how cool is that christine

1:23 am

Is she about 40-ish?

1:23 am

mid forties now

1:23 am

Ru - AOCs website looks too cool for us ;)

1:24 am

no.. it's fun

1:24 am

great stuff there. wonderful food

so6 reminds me of the time my then young daughter misunderstood "assorted chocolates". Of course this is the same kid who thought obituary was a cuss word.

1:24 am

I think it's the same little girl. Her nanny was an Englishwoman that came to our church, occasionally brought Suzanne and her sister - can't remember the name.

1:24 am

obituary is a cuss word in some circles

1:26 am

I can't believe what I'm reading in the sports pages

1:26 am

or that on6 is a real word... what's going on?

I was hoping when my day comes they'll say "she put the b____h in obituary."

1:27 am

hehe

1:28 am

ru... sports page?

1:29 am

If it's the 5 interceptions brees thru, it put an end to hubbies bid for a playoff berth in his fantasy league.

8:22 am

hi ruru and ty hurshy.. back in time to get your great clue

8:23 am

thx hurshy -monkey couldn't get it

8:23 am

stats for the 9 please

8:24 am

so9/60

8:24 am

so 9.60

8:25 am

both 8's also so

8:25 am

thnx - had the 8 but didn't do the pt

8:26 am

found two elements so far, ra6 and ir7, both with same ending

8:26 am

the second so8 has that ending but is a place, not an element.

8:27 am

have those 3 as well - not seeing any more with that ending though

8:27 am

yup, good for plants and people

8:30 am

several words have both the english and scottish ending

8:31 am

hm what about a midrise apartment building. or does that have a hyphen

8:33 am

clue for di 6/30

8:33 am

and if triune is a word, diune should be too. just cause there don't happen to be any religions that have that kind of a god doesn't mean it's not an equally valid theoretical construct.

8:33 am

clue by me at 8:21 matches

8:34 am

lol...true hurshy

8:34 am

Good Friday morning, Babble buds!

8:35 am

good morning judi

8:35 am

Hiya Judi

8:35 am

got it hurshy, ty

8:35 am

hi Judi

8:44 am

Morning all!!! {{smores}}

8:44 am

whittled it down to 43, think I'll list after I get back.. fun grid, bbl..

8:45 am

bye for now aloy :)

8:45 am

{mimi} morning to ya :)

8:48 am

There should be a separate game for phantom words---I just might win that one!!

8:48 am

lol...yes lots of phantom for me as well today

8:49 am

My checkbook is staring at me. It wants to be balanced. Phhfth. Who doesn't.

8:49 am

lol...judi

8:50 am

Math sucks.

8:50 am

LOL

8:51 am

I agree, Judi. All math ever did for me was lower my grade point average.

8:51 am

teehee....and they used math to do that

8:52 am

That's right, smores---a double whammy!

8:52 am

Ditto, mimi. I abandoned all math after 8th grade. English was my forte. It gave me valuable skills for Babble!

8:52 am

You sound like my oldest girl Judi

8:52 am

I have a close friend who is an astrophysics prof here and he always thinks in terms of math---but I love him anyway!!

8:54 am

I greatly admire people who are adept at math. I just hit the wall after conquering algebra.

8:54 am

I have to take two algebra classes in order to finish my degree---sooo dreading doing that again!

8:55 am

My daughter hates math, loves english. When they started algebra she came home outraged. " Math sucked enough with just numbers, now they're adding letters!!"

8:56 am

Yeeks. That would terrify me. Better line up a tutor now. It will be well worth it.

8:57 am

Funny, smores. I was lucky my ex is adept at algebra and helped our 3 kids get through it because I would have been useless.

8:57 am

Ah, so your kids can tutor you, Mimi. Bribes may be necessary.

8:57 am

The online school has a wonderful math resource so will be going to that site. Also, I spoke with a woman who gave me cheating pointers.....hey, I don't even need this stuff so why not cheat just to maintain my A average?!!!

8:58 am

Not only do I not need algebra (haven't used it in the 40 years since I took it the first time) but I have to PAY to take it when I don't even want it!!

8:59 am

lol..that sucks mimi

8:59 am

You need a stunt math stand-in!

9:00 am

May have to get my friend to take the tests for me!! Nah, would be ashamed to do that. May change my mind once I get into it.

9:00 am

I always looked at algebra as a puzzle that had to be solved. You are given the code and the key, now solve.

9:00 am

" cut " "cue the stand-in" lol

9:01 am

I mean, really, my major is Psychology---what do I care how much pi equals? I don't think in the middle of a personal crisis a client will ask me to solve an equation!!!

9:01 am

hello everybody

9:01 am

I used to like when they told us algebra helped us think logically. My response was "How can it help me think logically if it always confuses me?!!"

9:01 am

{{mimi}}

9:01 am

{{smores}}

9:02 am

need to know value of PI to know when to celebrate PI Day

9:02 am

{{bzzn}}

9:02 am

[[RUBY]]

9:02 am

I have so little time that I can't even check wqho's here!

9:02 am

hello teach

9:02 am

hello ruby

9:02 am

I never announce myself. Just jump in...

9:03 am

{ Ruby} :) how are you?

9:03 am

too much fear of heights to jump!

9:03 am

lol...hi bzzn :)

9:03 am

crazy-busy

9:03 am

Bzz, I have noticed that I actually think differently now, though. My mind is more logical so perhaps it won't be as difficult as I anticipate.

9:03 am

trying to get ready to leave this place

9:03 am

then just step right on in

9:04 am

where are you going?

9:04 am

When are you going again, ruby?

9:04 am

is this when you are visiting your friends in London

9:04 am

If you last took a math class in high school, it does seem to get easier with age.

9:04 am

Friday to London for a long weekend and I'm really happy to be going but worried about leaving DH and the pups

9:05 am

Will your friend look in on them?

9:05 am

just focus on enjoying your weekend

9:05 am

YAY Ruby :)

9:05 am

I think I've covered most bases.....

9:06 am

try not to worry so much, he will be fine

9:06 am

You deserve some Ruby time :)

9:06 am

Enjoy your time away--I know you need it. I agree with smores.

9:07 am

It's only a couple of days, ruby. all will be well.

9:08 am

what a nice grid!

9:08 am

I haven't been away in a long time

9:09 am

What did the vet have to say, ruby?

9:09 am

gotta run

9:09 am

9:09 am

Seeya, Ruby! Have fun!

9:09 am

she's coming back tongith to shave Rufie oy

9:10 am

Bye Ruby

9:10 am

Bye, ruby! talk to ya later

9:10 am

What? why do you have to have Rufie shaved

9:16 am

So glad I can come here and at least live vicariously!!

9:17 am

Tried a word just for the heck of it and it took! Wow, my monkey is smart.

9:20 am

lol...love when that happens..also when I get a word from a typo

9:20 am

And another one!!

9:20 am

go Mimi go :) give that monkey a banana

9:20 am

And my monkey word is a 40-pointer!

9:21 am

At least I can't spank it---OK, where's crossy?!!! (Shades of yesterday's chog)

9:23 am

lol...missed that one yesterday

9:24 am

We had quite a morning. I was totally ROFLOL.

9:25 am

9:25 am

Hiya crossy :)

9:25 am

9:29 am

Got a phantom in there that describes how I usually "run."

9:29 am

i am so off my feed and fuzzy headed today,you will have to just give me the highlights.cannot see it.all i found was someone spanking their monkey in the chog lol

9:30 am

yeah, apparently I missed something yesterday

9:30 am

That was it---I said I couldn't spank one and then asked where you were....remembering yesterday morning's fun.

9:31 am

You really did, smores. I think it's worth looking back if that's possible.....sooo funny.

9:31 am

my beloved say i am not allowed to spank my monkey in public

9:32 am

LOL...she had to tell you that?

9:32 am

Good for her....wise advice.

9:32 am

Not to worry, smores, if there isn't bacon on the monkey, crossy won't be so interested...

9:32 am

after 2 years dating and 19 years of wedded bliss,to keep the peace i ask permission for everything lol

9:34 am

Smart man...that's why you've been together so long.

9:34 am

2:30 pm

how's crossy this fine friday? it got a bit chilly up your way

2:31 pm

poor crossy! would a bigger monitor help? or just change the size %?

2:31 pm

chilly here also minus 3c and a bit of wind bringing the wind chill to minus 8 and we have had snow on the ground for 2 weeks now and it looks like it plans on staying around for a while

2:32 pm

no,i think for the printed word.i must wear some glasses

2:32 pm

it should all go tomorrow crossy - wind from the south coming you should get up to 8-12 in the next 3/5 days

2:32 pm

sudbury was at -13/15 the past few daysd! BRRRRR

2:33 pm

a hot 44 degrees centigrade here yesterday, and today is predicted to be hotter.

2:33 pm

2:33 pm

i have not been to sudbury in forever.place used to stink real badly because of the nickle mines

2:33 pm

2:37 pm

good morning everyone

2:37 pm

hi lynxxx

2:37 pm

hi lyn

2:38 pm

we had minus 42c up in north bay last year.was visiting my da and you could take a cup of warm water,toss it into the air and it would freeze into snow before it hit the ground..kids had great

2:38 pm

howdy lynxx

2:38 pm

great fun*

2:40 pm

minus 42 can NEVER be considered great fun...*sniff*

2:40 pm

lol

2:40 pm

added bonus is no mosquito bites:)

2:42 pm

no that one could get through the 15 layers i was wearing...

2:44 pm

that sounds so unattractive and I don't even like hot weather - a temperate climate for me (cept for these odd 40 degree days that is)

2:45 pm

15-20 c is fine for crossy

2:45 pm

in north bay you have to worry about those stinkin' shad flies though - a couple years ago they were so thick the waterfront businesses closede!

2:46 pm

blech! they don't having a spraying program or something?

2:46 pm

indeed kate! i remember as a kid swimming on lake nippising us kids used to climb up on those boat lists everyone used to have and try to jump out 5 or 6 feet to get past the carpet of dead shad flies floating at the shore line..but i tell you,they sure made the pickerell grow nice and fat:))

2:46 pm

lifts

2:47 pm

mmm perhaps not spraying...what dines on shad flies?

2:47 pm

better not to poison nature as the shad fly season is but 2 week long

2:48 pm

the fish eat shad flys

2:48 pm

lol crossy! lyn - they are larvae in the lake, then come out as grown shad flies swimming up from the bottom then flying around - no way to spray

2:48 pm

fair enough - 2 weeks isn't bad

2:48 pm

that year was one of the worst ever...

2:48 pm

no,we just brush them off the cars and building and park benches

2:49 pm

my mum used to vacuum them off the bay windows

2:50 pm

so they come out of the water fully grown, fly around being a general pest and then die after 2 weeks?

2:50 pm

big thing to remember was to put some bug screen over the nose of your car or they would clog up the cooling fins on the car radiator in no time

2:51 pm

thats about it lynxx

2:51 pm

natures fish food

hi all

3:35 pm

hi TOwl!

3:36 pm

hey TO

hi lyn hi smores

uh oh...are you gone?

3:49 pm

I was just outside looking at my fish

you have a koi pond?

3:52 pm

not in my front yard! way too small - just a rectangle pond with waterlilies and other plants. Have comets and japanese rice fish...12 fish which I think is enough (though the rice fish are tiny so hopefully they will bred)

3:52 pm

*breed

i never heard of rice fish. o knoe koi get as bi as their pond

whoever compile enable never owned a cat. if they did , hork would be accepted

3:54 pm

yeah I don't think I could even fit a koi pond in my back yard. Although I was looking at the larger fish at the aquarium the other day..they are pretty ugly. My comets are as long as my hand and they are much more attractive - to me anyway

i will look them up

3:56 pm

the rice fish are fun, very small and go quite golden with more UV...and dart about the pond quickly. AND eat mosquitos

3:56 pm

hi again TO, got lost in the grid :)

3:57 pm

hmmm....hork?

3:58 pm

horking up furballs I am guessing

3:58 pm

lol...never heard that term

yes!

TELL me they don't hork them up

3:59 pm

Lol TO they definately do

3:59 pm

I have never had a cat, in fact don't know anyone who has...but I have learnt a lot here about cats

4:00 pm

I have 3, just never knew the term hork...like it though

well if it isn't a word i am oficicappy coining it.

offically

4:02 pm

Hi all! phant: tsunami

4:52 pm

Hi scrambler!!

4:53 pm

brb, serving dinner!:]

ewwwwwwwwwww talk about horking...i was on the train today when the woman behind me coughed into my hair! it actually moved!

4:54 pm

*cringes*

4:55 pm

At least it was the back of your head!

oh you bet i did as welll.

really. all i can figure is other cultures perhaps do not cover their mouths.

4:56 pm

But, notwithdstanding someone coughing into your face, most of the time if you keep your hands washed and away from your nose and mouth..you can avoid most viruses.

4:56 pm

All people should be trained to cough into their elbow!!

hard to do. but i wear my gloves when travelling until it gets too warm to justify it.

5:02 pm

OK, halfway...break time...bbl *poof*

I know, Liz, what a time we had yesterday!! I'm still giggling....

6:00 pm

Well, at least you can read it and get a chuckle. Would have been more fun with you in the mix!

6:01 pm

:) - but I certainly did chuckle - quietly though, so as not to wake hubby!

6:02 pm

Yeah, my cats get annoyed if I'm too boisterous!

6:02 pm

Mustn't annoy the cats - nasty, scratchy claws!

6:03 pm

Hey, they know who feeds them......they were all strays and I think they're just happy to have a good home.

6:04 pm

I'm sure you provide that! Apologies to Holy Grail fans for the misquote!

6:04 pm

{Mimi, Lizlin}

ru, i thought about you before when i was bemoaning the next few hours with wine snobs - thought about asking for some witty remark, but i think i'll just smile and nod - and drink something else

7:03 pm

or, did you in fact, hahaha

7:03 pm

it doesn't take much flosey

7:03 pm

you never fail to rise to the occasion

7:04 pm

<---feels for Welki.. nothing worse than hanging with some wine snobs

7:04 pm

one guy, every year, orders the most expensive wine on the menu - could be raccoon piss for all i know - but he's got to say ~~~Amarone~~~ in a fake accent for all to hear

7:04 pm

oh gosh, aren't they dreadful boors

7:04 pm

it's one thing if wine snobs know their stuff - but ignoramus wine snobs are the pits. (and even wine snobs don't have to be snobby)

7:04 pm

what vintage is that raccoon piss?

7:05 pm

early tiday

7:05 pm

Last year they were both home, and I got them each T-shirts that said "Mom likes me best"...there's a solution for your competitive boys bugsaw

11:16 pm

I love that idea Jilly!! I will check that out

11:16 pm

11:18 pm

11:19 pm
