Ok, I got J.C., but why can't we just discuss this out loud here?
he was created by a player who is no longer welcome here , because he can't stay away from the game.
that is the icon I was going to post, ruru
ra 7
sensitive issue I guess
he comes back as certain players from time to time
flip hi volley all
I always do that -- sorry...some people never learn...
And I'm sorry, but J.C. Doesn't ring any bells yet...
A lot of people are hurt
hi dart
he created a character that was the polar opposite of himself so that he'd find acceptance here
tyvm for es7
except some of us noticed his personality coming out in certain discussions
he is really a sadistic, weird sociopath.. who really abused many players here over time
who also apparently dated boy george
volcano alert :-)
ya 6
Nice. Or not nice, really. And the player is? Please, just blurt it out already.
tyvm uyne!
ty une!
hi everyone
JC was his user name
no, cos, didn't date Boy George, just an old friend.
he told me they were dating.
tr7, 8
oh well, can't believe a word he said anyway.
right i was being sarcastic ;)
good morningeveryone!
phantom transect
hey, flask :-)
wonder if they did smack together cos?
Oh, haha, duh. I don't recognize him. Was he mean before he metamorphosed into Nancy Boy? Who made the lit ate discovery?

define "abused"
ya 6
he strung everyone along for months. mosst of us got to love NB and we were so sad when he "died". we posted condolences to "frank" is supposed partner in bab anon.
nbt
did horrible things to erda
he never abused me and I did not witness any of his meanness, thank goodness
nbt nbs
that's good...
he was DISGUSTING in his IMs to me on yahoo
ugh
I know what the word means, Ruru...
He told me, he and his partner lived in a home that had belonged to Noel Coward, or Beverly Nicholls, not sure which, but no mention of Boy George.
glad I didn't join IM
really? crap . . .
Well, I suppose any one of us may or may not be who we say we are. The folly of the Internet. I am skeptical always, but promise I am whoi say I am (but you'd have to art aside our own skepticism to believe me, wouldn't you?)
firefly: this is why I decided to go to the meetup tonight after all. I was so tired was gonna back out but 1) jmc made a nice meal and 2) i wanted to meet them.. and 3) i didnt need any suspicion on me lol
firefly, I just read your profile -- what an ordeal you've been through!
ROFL cos
Well, I'm just my dear old adorable, unbelievably beautiful, slim, naturally tanned 25yearold.
Lol cos!
And a picture to prove it too ;)
lol yes :)
I'm a 14 year old girl with a bad attitude
Oh Christine - were you looking at my photo?
oh! surgery was a success????
I cannot tell a lie -- too many babblers have seen me in the pudgy flesh.
Jillibus, my favorite octogenarian, yes I have been through it...
Has anyone heard from Negatieve Neil? He is a friend of AndrewInDrag, who I you think may be another of JC's creations??
nbt/nbs
I was trying to remember his username, firefly, yes I suspect it is him.
neil is around
(andrewindrag)
andrew in drag is likely JC
haven't seen Neil for a couple of days
and so is Mikey in Berlin
and Frank Cleary
Yes I have had a couple of emails from him regarding his brother who has been here in NZ
for a long time I thot Negative Neil was JC because of the way he spoke but apparently he is real. I am usually silent when he is on
*no comment*
I knew JC thru Neil. Thats all I will say.
jhb - remember, when we were kids, people thought we were twins, so yes, it could be your picture too.
jhb - remember, when we were kids, people thought we were twins, so yes, it could be your picture too.
tr5/14 has always been one of my favorite words
Oh, maybe I meant Mikey in Berlin, not Andrew.
Neil gives me weird vibes, but I liked his username. I refuse to interact with him further.
Goody - Yeah I remember those good old days. We were both young and beautiful

I am glad you are not Neil dart
you both are fast at this dart
me too bugs...same sense towards him as you
I have never said that out loud before so I will probably regret it but it is what it is
and if there was as pretty a pic from near here as signal hill is...i would put it up...but no luck on that one
too bad you can't type in chog and delete it asap - like in facebook lol
it is on my bucket list to visit signal hill. I love those people
good plan Dee
was there in 2007..08..09..10..11...missed last year...want to get there again this summer sometime
looks like one of my photos of Pittsburgh at night.
my bucket list is to spend two months in New Zealand
and the south of france
wine stuff ruru?

no.. just touring
lol jilli
LOL Jilli
our daughter and son-in-law just spent their 1st wedding anniversary in Napa Valley
Also I want to visit Ireland and walk where my ancestors came from but there is a hole in my bucket too jilli
My sister (jhb) is in NZ; I'm sure she'd love to have you visit for two months.
how nice dee
did they have a great time?
where are you in Can bug?
I haven't seen any photos yet, but they said they plan to return - they loved it so much.
Vancouver Island
the weather has been fantastic
god I love vancouver island
that is a long way to st. john's
I went to high school in NH and want to go visit the college town where we lived, travel the Cabot trail and spend time on Nfld
you could go to ireland and stop in yyt on the way back home
<---not getting to much closer to 200
got your passport yet, ruru?
they thot the temps were fabulous (coming from IN)... they chuckled at how many folks they saw all bundled up and they just had running clothes on in the mornings for their run
get your passports in order ruru and you can have a nice room in a humble home while you visit.
i will be getting my passport this summer
plan to visit then
we missed you last summer. it was such a good group
and you have to visit Salt Spring too, ruru, complete with dogs and wife if you like -- I have a guest room too
yep.. I'm an idiot.. I didn't realize I'd need a passport for Canada
yes jilli's place is much nicer than mine
only since 9/11
you need a passport to get back into the USA
send for it now ruru...it will take a few weeks....unless you drive down to san fran..may be able to expedite it there
Your place is warm and welcoming, bugs
i'll be looking into it soon
thank you jilli. I hope you can come again one day
ssports
and vice versa, bugs
I plan to jilli, don't worry

no rush, just a good idea.
I must head oout too. Happy Babbling all
nite bugs
gnight bugs
Jullibus - just read your profile: a lovely verse by your Father. How's the recovery on your poor nose?
Whooo, what did I do, that my post ran off the edge of the box?
And, how can I un-do it?
The nose is passable, thanks, Christine -- not quite the right colour, don't know if it ever will be.
st 7/28
You didn't do it -- dart did, with the long URL. We just have towait until it scrolls off.
how come it didn't show right away?
I think your skin replenishes itself, every-so-often, sloughing off the old dead stuff. So perhaps it will right itself. I hope it's not too terribly different (the colour, I mean).
It did, dart -- I noticed it
weird...nothing here until one post a sec ago..now fine again
I didn't notice it til Chris mentioned it :)
me either..now it's fine
Christine, there's a greyish tinge to it. The plastic surgeon said it would be a year before it became invisible -- I hope it does.
still goofy here
I just checked back, and I guess it wasn't me ... big sigh of relief.
still not fine, dart.
maybe depends on browser or something
maybe
over halfway and bushed -- goodnight all...*poof
morning all
May I please have a clue for tr5-14? Thanks
sorry not there yet
Illict meeting, gap.
Thanks anyway, Katie.
Oh I do have it sneeky meeting
Thanks so much, SueMagee.
YW
Good Morning i think someone has an oversized icon grid and chatbox is pulling ,this useally happens when there is a larg picture
Katie has an over sized icon. Also, the url posted earlier should have been a tiny url. Regular urls blow the chat box width.
oh sorry. How do I get my icon to be a small one?
good morning all :) How nice, my first word is a sweet bear!
Katie, this is a helpful link for downsizing big pictures: http://www.shrinkpictures.co\nm/ They have a separate page even for creating an avatar.
hm, you will have to remove the backslash + n from the url. Let me see if it will post clear if I tiny-url it.
Here it is: http://tinyurl.com/qwlum
all done, thanks for the help Sprite, hopefully I won't stuff up the blog again :)
small price to pay for your company though, Katie :)
Thank you x
are you done with the grid as well?
ah see, the link da4 posted was to blame. My chog has gone back to normal now.
fireflies. Bye all.
congrats sprite !!! and hi all, just in for a few
ggggggood mmmoring eeeeveryone..minus 30c here in the great white north
oh my, I thought 2c was bad :)
Hi Crossy - shshshshshsshiver!
lol
And I'm sitting here with the fan on - doesn't seem fair!
crossy wants to move in with yyou liz
OK - we'll have to talk to our spouses first though!
grrr..my bloody windows are frozen shut...
I can't imagine it that cold - you really have my warm thoughts flying your way!
ty,i will have to go dig the car out later and see if it will start
how much snow do you have?
about 3 feet in last week with snow squalls adding 15 cm this morning
And my friends whinge in London!!!!
I do..lol
london is a dusting
but they are not geared for it
OK - and the Isle of Wight!
But i do know we are very lucky compared to some places.
They're not geared for anything! Leaves on the rails, the wrong type of rain etc etc!
tbh,i would rather this than the incredible heat you get in your summers liz
We even canceled trains before any snow had fallen..lol
that's too funny!
It's not too bad in QLD, Crossy - averages about 30 C where we are. We don't get the extreme heat that's been making the news.
I love the heat..just cannot stand all the creepy crawlies.
Haven't seen too many of them either - and no legless, slithery things either! Well, only one - non venomous one!
I am beginning to sound like a whimp..haha
Never zooz
we watch too many aussie nature shows here liz,as far as we know you can die 3 times down there just walking to the bathroom in the morning with the critters they show us!
And as for your polar bears coming into towns ...
lol
churnhill manitoba and cocharin ontario
So not where you live then?
the bears come right in and say howdy
3 hour drive north we do have black bears liz
With big claws and nasty pointy teeth!
lolo,they do indeed,but they do not hide in our shoes and pump us full of venom
ROOOAAAR
HISSSSSSSSSSS!
acck!
Scorpions, Black widows..no thank you.
now if we only had a polar bear that eats poisonous snakes...
I'd export them over here asap!
Do see jellyfish on the beach sometimes but usually washed up by the tide and not box jellyfish!
forgot about those.you go for a dip and your nervous system gets fried by living jello
Wouldn't worry about them! Worry more about the sharks!!!! Not that I've seen them either!
here,our lakes are large and fresh water thank you:)
Have watched bondi beach rescue a few times..and the amount of people stung by jelly fish..and the pain on the peoples faces...not nice.
Seriously, on every beach there's a board, updated every day by the surf life savers - it tells you about rips, jelly fish etc and warns you whether it's safe to swim or not!
have never swan in salt water
swam
However, i don't swim in the sea!
Too dangerous!
No i do not swim in the sea either and i live right next to it..lol
funny,and that is exactly the first thing we do when we go visit you guys
I love walking on the beach though and you might've heard me say before, we go whale watching every week in our winter!
especially down under
Stats for the 'Y' please.
y 6 /24
ya 6 /24
I would love to whale watch..and thank you, Liz.
It's magical and we don't get bored with it. I've posted some whales we've seen in my profile.
we can whale watch in western canada as the migration routes bring them in close out there
but have yet to see it myself
Hope to do that later this year - do go if you ever get the opportunity. Can't recommend it highly enough.
hello
Hi Ruby :)
((ruby))
oh, goody, my friends are here, or at least some of them
{{crossy}}
{{lizlin}}
{{zoozz}}
That humpback picture is a wow.
Hello, Ruby.
I'll get the hang of virtual hugs one day!
I would have to goto Scotland to see whales.
* go to
Thanks zooz. The white whale, Migaloo, is the only known pure albino, though it is thought that he has a son / daughter whale. There are some other almost pure white humpbacks, but most have some dark markings too.
it'd be worth the visit!
what an interesting chog; I actually read back for a change. Nice to read something other than interniscene {no idea of spelling}} conspiracies
I love how people can give names to the whales with the niks and scrapes they have got..and can see where they have travled..love it.
It has been a bit like that, recently Ruby
here most whales are identified by thier tails
I can only swim in salt water (having lived in Miami) as I sink like a stone in fresh water
Sorry.. my spelling is awry today.
lol poor ruby
I was in Greece once and the water was full of jelly fish eeew
ugh
Would definatley stay out of the water then, Ruby.
That's true zooz - we've seen stumpy here (named for the shape of its tail, then there's blade runner, who was injured badly by a propeller in Sydney but survived etc etc
Would not want to be stung by anything thanks.
They generally are identified by their tails here too.
Yuck Ruby - not a good experience.
only saw whales once, in Maui, and it was thrilling
Would love to swim with them one day!!!!! Can't really see that ever happening though!
They are so huuuugggeee.
out west they use zodiac boats to bring you right among the pod and the lucky few can actually pet a whale
I would like to swim with the dolphins..i know lots of people say that..but i would.
Awesome!
That sounds excellent, Crossy.
I think I'd be afraid, not being any kind of decent swimmer
Me too! That's more realistic, i guess! We see dolphins from the beach sometimes.
Quick hello and {hugs} to you all
it'd have to be in a controlled situation, Ruby, as I'm not a brilliant swimmer either!
when I lived in Miami, on an island, when I'd walk my chow chow, Rosie, at night, a dolphin would swim along the sea wall and the two of them would make noises at each other
Hi smores :)
howdy smores
That must've been amazing to see, Ruby.
gotta get daughter off to school
Sorry to leave you all..but i really need to eat something...nice talking to you..will be back later.
Bye zooz, enjoy :)
Hello, Smores..and bye for now.
Probably see you tomorrow then. Bye zooz :)
sounds wonderful ruby...
I'm also off - things to do before bed. It's 11.00 here. Enjoy your days :)
Good night Liz...sleep well :)
I must scoot too, be back in a bit :)

Hi Mimi {{hugs}}
(zoo)
Are you feeling better Mimi?
No, dear, thanks for asking. I have to go somewhere today (no choice) and take a 3-hour round trip bus ride plus walk to the bus stop.....someone just shoot me in the head now.
Hi zooz...I'm back for a bit this time :)
:( so sorry...
They say that which does not kill us makes us stronger....hey, God, strong enough already, how about cutting me a break?!!
lol...reminds me of a similar quote by Mother Teresa
Well, that's a first...never reminded anyone of her before!

“I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much.†― Mother Teresa
se8 - to place + threaded nail compound word
re8 - to change your hairdo
ty got the se.
Don't know why (maybe it's the flu) but reminds me of a line in a movie where a bounty hunter said "It's not my job to judge. It's just up to me to introduce people to God." Not really relevant, huh....OK, I'm sick in more ways than one!

No problem. The chat seems chock full of confusion. Just trying to avoid more of that.
yes. yes they are
or a meower..lol
Sorry..silly joke.
yes, both mewer and meower.
yes. it is too bad that we cannot underline - at least, i cannot. caps are the only emphasis
Underline and/or italics would be nice
yes, sometimes a little emphasis helps avoid misunderstanding.
Gotta go steam my head again.....back later.
panser
oh mi mi you are still sick! i was praying last night that i didn't get the flu from all that hand shaking
and close talking (concert - shouting over music)
Sorry---was thinking about the guy who produced Highlander...last name is Panser. Leaving before the delirium gets embarrassing....bye all.
ok how many folks tried it? *raises hand*
me too
Ooh i hate that..when you have to shout and still not be heard..or even worse someone shouting right in your ear..and still not hearing what they said..but you can feel your ear hurting.
Yeah ok..i did too..lol

I used the expression "stink eye" yesterday and then didn't know where it came from when asked. Of course my sister knew!
lol...my mom used to say that :)
evidently it comes from noir fiction like Raymond Chandler. I thought it might be from Sicily lol

Evening all, back for the last 100

re8 - having your hair done again
re8/50
brilliant ty glan...has wales started to thaw yet?
ty ruby
"Stink eye" = dirty look. Morphed into "hairy eyeball".
that's even worse
No, there is more snow thatn they expected today, and it has lasted longer than they expected too. On the bonus side it is not as cold as they expected - we only got -2 instead of -7. Expecting thaw on Friday, and possibly floods when it happens...
here, they pull down the lower lid with the forefinger
Worst is the evil eye, given by an Irish woman. If that comes your way, you are in a heap o'trouble.
Hi Bichon (bit slow today LOL)
yeah I was wondering where the thaw will go...seeing the land is sodden anyway
uh oh, I had better watch myself
my grandmother fro mthe Old Country used to pull down her upper lid and spit out three times to clear her eye of dirt
I think that works, bichon
Now we know why old ladies have droopy eyelids.
what does the spitting part do?
only if they're from the Old Country
Impresses the grandkids.
:)
We weren't impressed, more like grossed out
must take a break...enjoy your day all :)

Here in the great Northwest we have rain again. This is what we expect and feel comfortable with. Gone is the dank fog.
sister lives in caribou , maine... now THAT"S cold and one on houlton. same there
grew up there, where o degrees f . is sweater weather
Don't know how you did it, SMom. I would be a mental case if it were that cold for weeks/months at a time.
when the temp his 30, we would close the windows
when i moved to ohio, i did not wear a coat for the forst 10 years.. made hubby crazy
When my husband moved here from Canada, he did not wear a coat the first winter. He acclimated fast though and was as cold as the rest of us in subsequent winters.
i could not live in the south... won't even visit........ family members have houses in florida and other places.. could stay forever and still i cannot make mysef go.. could not take the heat bugs and snakes.. ill keep my coolness here-lol.. besides i knit great sweaters and afghans
hi again all!
We've lived lots of places and found them all interesting. There were big land crabs in Puerto Rico that I seem to remember walking about after dark. That was strange.

no idea what yoga word to rhyme with other than owie.
Heh, maybe meditation then? something you repeat.
thank you. found it
ty winding
and nice to meet you if i haven't met you before which i think i haven't
Years ago, I was "parsec," but i have no idea how to log into that one anymore, heh. Just started this ID the other week.
i am having to peel off my layers after leaving 10 degrees DC for 66 degrees Houston where they asked me if i was cold here!
thanks for good clues on Y word...
I think your name looks familiar (as does hurshy's and a few others) but I don't really remember much.
yw!
oh okay, you seemed to know your way around the chog so i was wondering if i was forgetting. . .
I mostly lurk. My picture is so boring and all!
that seems to happen to folks but Dr God is good about helping people get back their old names if they really want
hi again all :)
chatting is the best part! *bounce bounce bounce*
hi smores
I probably signed up with something like 'dontemailme@hotmail.com or something.
lol...nice em addy
which doesn't exist, or if it does, it isn't mine. Turns out it's tough to retrieve a password that way, who knew?
hahaha
but if you paid for pro, then you should ask Dr. G for help in finding your handle.
If I find myself sticking around, I probably will.
it eats up a lot of work time, though. Fine when nothing's going on but that's why I stopped last time.
windingwake, you say you were parsec? I remember parsec.
I remember you too!
You have a really good memory.
:)
I mean, so many names must have passed through here since 2003 or whenever the last time I logged on was, heh.
I do have a really good memory for names
what have you been up to?
If it was 2003, you must have been one of the original members.
17 remaining, bbl to finish. hope to see you around, windingwake.
Uhh... all kinds of things! I tutor college kids, so lots of that, plus I got married and separated and started school again.
I signed up in the summer of 2004
wow, you have been busy
I don't think I was original, and I don't really remember the exact year. I know which office I worked in and that I had that office before 2004-2005.
83 left here
very busy, heh. But it's good for me I think, or will be.
Does anyone have the tr8? I could so use a clue for that one.
windingwakw - tr8 = folding tables
hey Jacula
Pl of tr7 a train travels on this over a gully
Hi peri.

hello crossy
hi again all!
finally home from the cancer center....
how did it go sue
pretty well except we were there for an extra couple of hours because Frank needed IV magnesium
is the center right there in your town or do you have to go somewhere else
it's right in town which is really nice
need a clue for ya6/24 please
sort of like what Popeye would chant while meditating, mom (the rest of us would chant a ma6/21)
rhymes repeated chant often used in meditation
I am suprised the ST 5/10 extendable tube used for clogged veins is not in morewords or the a2z wordfinder.
ty uu and wvteach
yvw
it's a good word here, zooz, but must mean something else since it won't take the plural
Got called to the 'phone. Also got fireworks now. Happy Babbling, all. x
Hi, Sue the other s is in the wrong place for it to be a plural.
Bye, Jacula
Not getting the Popeye clue. I have the word, just don't get why Popeye would say that.
I yam what I yam? Perhaps my thought process is too strange.
I know the plural of the clogged vein fixer isn't in the grid, zooz, but even when it is Enable doesn't accept it
Ahh i am with you now, Sue..wonder why.
Just plonked here waiting for the bath water..it is now ready..so i am out of here.bye.
bye, zooz! Have a nice bath! (sounds quite relaxing, actually)
Sue - just been catching up on Franks progress and saw about the house, did you get moved ok?
not yet, Katie, we have until the end of February. And we have a house to move into, thanks to some friends!
We'll be renting it from them; they like us *and* our large dog and two cats, so it will work out well all around.
Oh it's nice to have a bit more time and good friends. It just gives Frank a little longer to get over the surgery
oh wow never thought of the difficulties of trying to rent with pets
we have amazing friends, Katie! Frank is almost recovered from the surgery now but the chemo is starting to get to him - and that goes through the end of May
it is tricky, Katie, a lot of places say no pets, or only small dogs, or only two pets, or some combination that we didn't satisfy
Well I'm glad your friends have a place for you to rent, it would be an awful choice to make if you had to go down to 2 pets
oh, it would have been impossible. And Frank just got elected to the county board; in order to keep his seat he has to live in the district, and this house is in! It is really perfect.
oh that has all worked out for the best. Are you OK with your house going?
I am. It took some getting used to but it was way too expensive, and my ex had started a lot of projects that he never finished, so it has been a perpetual construction zone.
At least this way you get a place for the two of you :) and it should be more managable
Indeed. And it's only a few blocks from where we live now, so moving should be pretty easy.
I'm glad you are doing ok
thanks! It's been rough but we are managing. And as I said, we have amazing friends. I couldn't do it without them.
it is times like these that you find out who your real friends are
it certainly is!
Anyway I need to go collapse for a while, bbl!
night sue
Wow that is amazing. Pet odor is very permeating and difficult to get rid of. Which makes a place difficult to re-rent. Most rentals around here don't allow pets.
clues for the es
nm
st 5/10 the 3rd one. and hi
Not a city but a st5
sorry, the one after that
s + camp dwelling
ty Molly
clue for cr6 or second st7? please and thanks :)
hi all
I do not like pushy people. just needed to get that out there. it does not refer to anyone on babble
I don't have the cr 6.
hi peri. DItto for me too. And since we're just putting stuff out there, I had to scroll back through the past couple days to read about NB. After initial shock, just ... sad, more for the crazy perpetrator. Thanks anyway, stidgmere.
Just seen Mollys comment. One of my favourite poets is Ogden Nash who wrote the epic 'I have a dog
Her name is Porgy
Good morning. Sorry I don't have either of those words :)
her breath is sweet her odour dorgy
Deeha, is that the 'Two Dogs Have I' one, or is it another?
I'm going to wander off now but hi to liz and all aboard the good ship Babble.
Just those 4 line, sorry I split them up somehow
Bye, stidg.
Have a good evening stidg :)
Deeha, I was hoping there was another poem like that one. I get choked up when I read it. Lovely, lovely poem.
Dont think any of O Nash's come into that category! He also wrote 'A bit of talcum is always walcome
Oooh! Beloved just arrived home, and he surprised me with Arby's! BBL.
ya6?
Hi - a difficult one to clue. Previously clued as rhyming with a prayer chant. Hope this helps
the name give to a prayer chant.
I am still clueless :)
OK - y + small insect + the first 2 letters of what a train runs on.
fw!
Congrats TO :)
oh my gosh, i was so dyslexic! Thanks!
yw!
It surprises me that ma5 (the prayer chant) is not very well known by people who play here.
Not too many people familiar with Hinduism
Hi again :)
Hi smores :(
:) - hit the wrong button!!!!
LOL!
glad to see you too...lol
:)
Love the cuddly bear icon!
So appropriate :)
thanks, I like him :)
I remember the excitment going to see Chi Chi at London Zoo, when I was a kid. And then An An came over from Russia - but they didn't like each other enough!!!!
Yes, I recall reading about that.
There was one born back in the fall at our National Zoo in DC
That's so cute - and great that they've managed to breed a baby.
Yeah, but ma5 is a meditation word and meditation is very popular these days.
I'll have to look it up later. There was one born a few years ago also.
I guess, Molly, that in suggesting ma 5, it just confused some people, who started looking for an ma 5 in the grid - just threw their thinking.
I think the 1st thing that came to mind for most, myself included, was chant.
I can never use a ma5 when I meditate as it disrupts my meditation.
I know the ma5 word and got the clue but agree with Liz, I think it caused confusion.
*Wonders about that since there is no ma in the grid*
lol...agree
that's why it might've been confusing to some
And I wondered why we say ma5 instead of the complete word.
Probably shouldve clued as rhymes with ma****
Sensible thought
I was more confused by the Popeye clue but I guess we were all confused in our own way.
LOL...still can picture that one
I still don't get the Popeye clue!!!!
*can't
Well, Popeye said I yam what I yam, but he didn't start every word with Y.
Guess I didn't see the Popeye clue.
All I can hear is the cartoon song from when I was a kid!
*picturing Popeye sitting crosslegged chanting Ommm*
yaamm....yaamm...yaamm :)
*Makes plans to steal Smores L and O key*
Night all. See you tomorrow.
noooo, not my l and o key
Night Bea - enjoy your evening
Good night Bea :)
Next you'll try and take my : and )
OK - I get it! I have to say, I wouldn't have if you hadn't written that - I'd completely forgotten about "I yam ..." etc
No, you can : ) as much as you want. But every other comment need not start with LOL. : D
:p
I'm sure you are a very happy person, but it's hard to believe you are laughing out loud that much.
how about teehee?
Of course it's not as bad as people who say they are rolling on the floor laughing at something that is really not that funny.
I'll try and cut back, hey I haven't used the m word :)
Everyone has their own style of chat
And you get a big gold star for getting rid of your Weemee.
Well, gotta go, watching Arrow
Enjoy your evening, smores :)
tadone!! finito!!
Congrats lbd :)
clue for ta 5 / 10 pls - probably word blindness!!!!
another name for spud, mashed ta***s
or t + consumes
there are three ta 5 - or small pasteries pl
Duh!!!!!! I missed the plural of the pastries!!!! Obviously not hungry because breakfast not so long ago!!!
tyvm!
te 6 /24 pls
Add a vowel to the end of the 5/14
More word blindness - but can't see how that works!
te 6 /24 - comes after te 6 /21 - the only 5 / 14 doesn't have the same 3rd letter.
I'm sorry...I clued wrong!!! duh...
te 6/24 - use those first 4 letters of 6/21 - change last two letters - use sometimes vowel and a consonant
ty so much!
Finding this grid tricky!
lots of weird words and lots of twisty words
10 to go!
12 to go - we'll make it
go Liz, go WV!!
fw!!! Those final 8 x w weren't too bad at all! A relief after some of those others I struggled with.
ty for the clues
BBL - off to see The Hobbit this pm, so need to get sorted. Good luck wvt and congrats in advance :)
whoooo hooooo LIZ!!
** finito **
anyone have the cr 6?
watching Jeff Dunham's Arguing with myself...gawd, i'm laughing so hard...
whooooo hoooooo WV!!
cr + vowel + the agenda you get in class a ***labus
cr 6 - same first four letters as previous cr 5 (top of hill) + sometimes vowel + consonant
thank you
Don't bother looking at the definition. It's as messed up as the word.
I've given up looking at the definitions of enable words a long time ago
`brb
always try to look up one each day - had to go look - containing a tolyl group, chemical adjective
Yes, and unless you are a chemistry head, that definition is pretty useless.
my chemistry head days were in the 60's and 70's
'evening, folkd
and folks
(feed your head)
hi weemee
hi nancy
:D
did you live in california during the 60s and 70s?
One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small...
I heard Cos was on the Metro with a weeme
Hi again
do tell - maybe he'll bring it here
hey smores
No, it was a weewee.
She weemeed all over herself
LOL
that's most unfortunate - hope there were paper towels
:D
anyone have the re 7.28 please
Nice try but Cos has already been told what he can do with a weemee icon.
re + begin
thank you
duh-oooh
oh puhleese. i thought we paid jaime for this site
Yes, we do.
hey - i saw the pic from jmc and the boys - did cos end up staying with her?
No he's at a hotel.
did you meet up with them, molly?
Nope
maybe next time
ru - still here? wondering if you were in CA during the 60s and 70s (i made my way west in the summer of 72 - magic bus and a dog named sunshine)
i was there. I grew up there.
here
here, there, everywhere
hi dorens
to lead a better life, i need my love to be there....
hi welki. baby coming anytime soon?
at 6/21?
looks like it. she's early, too early, but the doctor stopped all the anti-labor meds and said she can deliver any time now
oh, how early is this?
please rsvp so i'll know if you'll at****, bich
tyvm welki
she's due the end of feb, but first one was preemie, too - and this one is a healthy size (7.5 pounds) already
doc's not worried about lung function (whew - but i admit i still am)
whats the difference between a preemee and a weemee?
wardrobe, ru
oh, then it is safe now, that's good. *admits to not knowing what a weemee is*
Preemees aren't creepy
my plan is to get there as soon as i can, get a room in somerset - let everyone know i'm there and hopefully we can meet up. jmc said she might drive up - if she thinks she can, i'll rent a suite so she can bunk with me
i've seen some very creepy looking preemees. depends on just how early they are
you're just so full of sunshine today, molly. i love you, too.
a weemee, dorens, is like my icon - it's a cartoon.
Obviously we can no longer joke about the weemees. I'll add that to the list.
weemees are creepy
ok. I'm just a half hour away from somerset. i can have you all up here on a weekend day.
that's what you said the last time, but i don't think you're joking
what makes them creepy? the big eyes?
molly said they remind her of anime
i'm just tired of the same old, same old - get some new material
it does remind me of animé, but so what? i had kids in my office today drawing pictures to decorate my wall. I'm not an anime fan, but they are.... no harm
I'll assume that comment goes for Ru too.
st 6/21
yes ma'am
??
BRB
ru - get some new material. the weemee stuff is getting old. (just so you hear it from me *LOL*)
We have to get some new material Ru. Our dislike of weemees is no longer acceptable here.
a st6 of hair, the st6 theater
oh okay.. got it
the material thing
have at it, this is an open forum. but for me, it's just yesterday's news
i just put post -its on them molly
i don't particularly like maxine, but when people put it in their icon i just don't mention it. Some do like her, some don't. So what? I don't get it.
me either
there you go... post its. great solution
(but i do like maxine)
and you are entitled to like it. and use it as an icon. You don't need to like mine, I don't need to like yours. (but mine is very pretty)
yes it is very pretty - i miss all the ferns, it's so dry here
so it was 16 degrees outside today, and the boiler in school went on the fritz.
good thing i'm not the sensitive type, eh? oh wait, we can't say sensitive here anymore. we shouldn't use LOL anymore, we shouldn't say monkeys anymore. of course, it's all a joke :D :D :D :D
egads, did you have to send the kids home?
easy, welki. You can say what you like, this is a friendly grid
wait, no more monkeys? did a monkey protest?
No, they ended up fixing it. But lots of folks wearing coats for an hour or two (and I was certainly one of them!)
hah! i had definite monkeys working yesterday, and think i might need to call them out today as well. Not sure why people aren't using them, but I sure am
i'm hoping that it's a little warmer when i fly in - it's only january and i've had enough of winter
i'm sure this will pass. we may have huge snow storms by then though.. who knows? it is winter for another few months now
hi rbud
anyway, i'm off to LOL about monkeys with my weemee - have a good night everyone. (pssst :D :D :D :D)
lol night welki
enjoy your monkeys welki, LOL
ohhh, that sounds positively dirty! bye for now
can I please have a clue for the st 5/10 before the part of a boat, I've looked at all the lists on A to Z and Morewords and can't find it.
ru, that icon just cracks me up
st 5/10. what they put in your artery to keep it open
great.. good.. thanks I'm glad it does
geez, thanks Dorens, can't believe it's such an easy word, yet it's not on those lists either
oh, well it is here so often I just automatically try it when i see these letters
so, just wondering, ru, did anyone show up and try to garner some drama on the anniversary?
haha! Ru did, rbud. look at his icon
yeah, I usually see it too, but just didn't tonight
i don't know.. I don't think so
I think the jig is up now
no time to look in the chog for the last two days, but i'm sure the conversation has frequently come back to it. i'm sure JC has seen it
yep
got to run
enjoy your evening ru
s'long, ru/jun/NB... *giggle*
honestly, this seemingly quiet little corner of the internet gaming world has rarely a dull moment, I must say. :)
hi all
don't really understand it. sure different from the way it used to be. I know change is inevitable, even good, but.....
hey je. have fun last night?
Hello jmc, dorens and everyone else
oh, loved those pictures, je!

hi wht. j, the pic looked good
it was fun to get to know cosd a little better. . .he is a remarkable young man!
hi wht
i hae left the 10 degree weather for the chilly climes of houston where it is 64 degrees right now. . . i had the a/c on in the car today

ooh, you so lucky! ... and yet I bet the Houstonians are wearing mittens and scarves, right?
haha no mostly shirt sleeves. . .
yes it was nice to sit on my friends front porch. . .

oh, good. I recall being in Phoenix one Christmas, riding motorcycles in shirtsleeves, while the Phoenix folk shivered and their teeth chattered at around 65 degrees.

Too much partying with the Obama's Cos?
too much walking
i walked from the white house to the capitol and back today
That is a fair hike, cos. Especially if you stop and look at any of the sites on the Mall.
thats what I did. I went to the portrait gallery, the archives, the white house, (outside), the capitol... and yesterday i did 5 museums.... and all in 10 degree weather
That is a lot of walking, even given all your altitude training. :^)
and my dog is very very depressed. he will not stop crying. he is very very attached to me

DC pictures ALL uploaded on flickr.. go to my profile here to enjoy
there are pics of Jmc and seain and her cat fugitive there
Cosdem, you'd better be the real thing: I don't want us all getting excited on July 11th, then finding your hoaxing us.
*you're
lol jmc and seain met me last night. they can vouch for me :P actually my icon is a pic of me with them :P
As an hetero woman,. I really can't see why these people are making such a to-do about letting anyone and everyone marry. TGwo words - consenting adults!
ohhhh okay I see what u mean lol
ryan and I are legally married. (legally in 10 states anyway)
thanks cos, and it's legal in boston,boston legal!! :3
The churches say it's to protect marriage for the purpose of bringing more children into the family - therefore, any sterile couples, or women over childbearing age souldn't be eligible for marriage.
It's also legal in my house.
gerrymandering in va already while lone vote attends inauguration, dirty pool!
I think it was defeated in California, a few years ago, because people misunderstood the headline - YES on Prop 5 (or whatever), and people that I know thought they were voting for everyone's right to marry.
Had they read the full thing, they'd realise it was YES take away rights.
proposition 8
one of the last frontiers on civil rights
Oh, that was the one. I don't have a vote (not a citizen), but I have a big mouth, and tell my friends what to do .
I think the Supreme court has decided to judge the matter
it is only a matter of time
sorry got distracted. supreme court HAS decided to hear yes. will argue in March
two separate cases.. one for Prop 8 and one for DOMA
Maybe Im wrong. I know 2 cases for sure in March. One for DOMA, not sure about the other case
What is DOMA?
a lot of my gay friends say it isn't time to challenge this .. i'm not sure.. it may be time
it's long overdue for people to marry who they want
regardless of sex
defense of marriage act. which bans federal recognization of gay marriage. pres clinton signed it in law in 1996. he now opposes it and wants it repealed/overturned
DOMA – Defense of Marriage Act - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defense_o\nf_Marriage_Act
Obama wants it overturned too but the GOPs in Congress are the ones who are going to the supreme court. Usually it would be the attorney general but Obama ordered the AG not to defend it.
Wait, he wanted everyone to be free to amrry, now decides not?
clinton opposed gay marriage in 1996. he now supports it.
Wait again, now that I've reread your post,I think I got that backwards .
I'm surprised at him - I thought he was one of the good guyes (not so much a good husband).
my computer is having trouble, spelling, tonight.
every major Democrat opposed gay marriage back in 1996. only 11 senators voted no on DOMA. Now almost every democrat in congress supports it. times change.
Bloody politicians are busy with civil rights inany other country, and can't see what's right in front of them. The operative word is RIGHTS !!
right on christine
As soon as I get my hip and knee replaced, we'll march on Washington.
Rachel Maddow had a good quote... ill paraphrase...
found the quote!
"But here’s the thing about rights. They’re not actually supposed to be voted on. That’s why they’re called rights." - Rachel Maddow
Absolutely.
I love Rachel :) My favorite anchor.
I like anderson cooper
the g.o.p. uses subterfuge to trick the rt wing christian fundamentalists by pressing their buttons and supporting their views and votes against abortion votes and DOMA, anything to get a vote. They don't realize they have been played for votes.
bright, witty.. great sense of humor.. engagin
trms is my have show!
Have any of you really stopped to think about what it would be like, going through life with no one to love, of being alone if you couldn't live with the correct partner?
