ar8, start with a rude word for your backside + alternative spelling for night

2:54 am

ty rosie!

2:54 am

Rose, the book title you gave me the other day I could not find .But I did find (dear and glorious physician), is this the same book? I didnt want to order the wrong one

2:55 am

{{bye kids]]

3:04 am

Well I hope you can get rested soon and take care Ruby

3:04 am

3:05 am

at least the garden is becoming beautiful agai which is a huge cosolation

3:06 am

BTW, craz-head Raffie not digs up plants from the planters and rolls around in the dirt. At least she smells like thyme

3:07 am

well thats a plus--my dane rolled in something not very pleasent and I got to bath her today

3:08 am

how do you bathe suc a big dog?

3:08 am

such*

3:08 am

I give her a shower unless its warm enough to take her to the creek(which it isnt)

3:09 am

Plus I get a shower too--lal

3:09 am

she ust be a nice dog (like her mom)

3:10 am

Raffie hasn't had a bath yet, and I'm dreading it, but I think Joanne will help me as I can't lift her any more *she's doubled in size in one month)

3:10 am

(not Joanne, the pup)

3:11 am

I dont know where she found that awful smell to roll in

3:11 am

dead fish by the creek?

3:11 am

I usually have to wash to whole bathroom down afterwards

3:11 am

*woof*

3:12 am

I dont know Ruby --but whatever it was Im sure it was dead

3:13 am

How have you been Rose

3:15 am

busy, puglet. have been rearranging mother mac's bedroom while she is away. also cleaning where her cleaner never bothers to do.

3:16 am

Sounds like alot of work for you.How long is she to be away?

3:17 am

just a week at this ti4. in july she is away for 3 weeks. she was having trouble getting to the toilet in ti4 at night. had to do it now...if she was home...arrgghh!!!

3:20 am

Is she going to still have trouble when she returns?

3:21 am

no, hopefully not. there is now a clear path to her bathroom from her bed. and she can use her walker all the way into her bathroom.

3:22 am

still trying to work out how she managed to get scuff marks on her walls, behind the furniture.

3:23 am

Iam glad for you on that. I know the work to having one not able to do all that themselves

3:24 am

actually, she could now waltz in the clear floor area of her bedroom.

3:24 am

that is odd?

3:25 am

lol, puglet...she has managed to gouge holes in the plaster too. *sigh*

3:26 am

well Rose maybe she has been in there dancing-lal

3:26 am

lol, probably, puglet

3:27 am

You might install a hidden cam

3:27 am

*chuckling* and youtube it???

3:29 am

But then again you maynot want to know whats going on it there--haha

3:29 am

hahaha

3:33 am

does Ruby run a boarding house Rose

3:34 am

lol, no puglet...but her husband treats her like a boarding house owner. he expects her to meet his every whim.

3:34 am

ahh poor Ruby

3:37 am

yup, on top of that she has to sort out all their finances, run the household, garden etc. the dogs are her only outlet. poor darling...i so wish i lived closer to her.

3:37 am

Is he handicapped or just an ______

3:38 am

the second option, puglet. he is deteriorating physically as well as mentally

3:39 am

thats tough all the way around

3:40 am

I think women sometimes holds the strongest strength(God give to us)but it maynot always seem so

3:44 am

we do, puglet.

3:46 am

gooooooooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx could someone let me know how many words today please? xxx

4:03 am

nice big grid today

4:04 am

yes it is

4:04 am

sure is. It can keep me company while I copy relevant data to an external hard drive prior to reformatting

4:05 am

new computer sprite?

4:05 am

I wish. Computer crash. Spent most of yesterday trying to solve it and had to give up.

4:05 am

ugh...sorry

4:06 am

yeah it stinks. Let's hope this solves it, otherwise it is a hardware matter.

4:07 am

haha..sprite..just found the ar8 your clued so well the other day

4:07 am

:D

4:08 am

was having fun by myself yesterday... nice clue for yesterday's biggie: 'mes for yous and yous for mes... teas for twos and twos fo7"

4:08 am

4:09 am

*were

4:09 am

could you please clue so well again?thanks-lal

4:09 am

yes think so

4:09 am

lol...I need coffee

4:09 am

4:11 am

(meaning a word for butt and the ending for rocks, minerals)

4:12 am

thank you very much

4:12 am

yvw

4:13 am

is it bad that my 1st word was the butt word? lol

4:13 am

Hello Sprite and Smores and Puglet

4:13 am

hi lyn :) xxx

4:13 am

hey lynxxx :)

4:13 am

HI LYNXXX

4:14 am

I wonder about something. Why is rhine not valid? As in rhine stone cowboy?

4:15 am

I was wondering why utes wasent a word here earlier

4:15 am

?? guess 'cause it's Enable

4:15 am

not two words Sprite - just rhinestone

4:16 am

I tried that too pug

4:16 am

ah, I see. Thanks lyn :) And puglet, I don't know! Probably because of smores' reason.

4:17 am

teehee.... cu4 connects to ar4...definately not valid but still funny :)

4:17 am

:D

4:18 am

yep...I need coffee

4:18 am

BRB

4:27 am

back with coffee :)

4:27 am

for two, I hope :)

4:28 am

guess I have to go get my own BBS

4:28 am

:)

4:28 am

Im on my second cup already

4:28 am

"Places fresh pot of vanilla bean coffee on sideboard"

4:29 am

just had my meds, nothing else yet. I will have a lovely virtual cup of smores' delicious coffee then :)

4:30 am

I will throw in my coffee cake

4:30 am

do you have to wait after your meds?

4:30 am

mmm...thanks pug :)

4:31 am

no, just not the energy to make myself a cuppa. OOO lovely puglet!

4:31 am

ah...I see :)

4:32 am

I got to have my coffee in the morn as soon as possible and a smoke

4:33 am

I had mine set on auto perk..but I set it for 6am

4:33 am

I sometimes lack the energy to even take my meds. One of my good intentions for this year: take my meds no matter what. Am going strong with the intention still.

4:33 am

me too pug...me too

4:34 am

after those two items THEN I can take on whatever--lal

4:35 am

that's good sprite...is it still getting better I hope?

4:36 am

yes, on the whole I am going upward. Temporary setbacks are normal, right? And Spring is here at last, that helps :)

4:36 am

now that the weather is nicer that should help

4:37 am

lol :)

4:37 am

you got it :D

4:37 am

yes...temporary setbacks I think are very normal

4:37 am

May I asked what your illness is sprite?

4:38 am

combination of ptsd, damaged pelvic girdle and loss of feeling in feet and hands. Plus depression.

4:39 am

back....{{spritey}}} my darling....

4:39 am

were you in a wreck

4:40 am

hiya rose :) How was the nekkid husband? And dinner? :)

4:40 am

I hope your meds help

4:40 am

hi Rose

4:40 am

no, just pregnancy and delivery, puglet. As for the feet and hands, they don't know what is causing it.

4:40 am

nekkid husband still nekkid, dinner absolutely yummy. haven't had pizza in ages.

4:41 am

hey lyn....nice day today.

4:41 am

yes, meds help up to a point. Have great anti deps now. And therapy helps to, I am learning to cope. And things could be much worse. I can grow very old with this ;)

4:41 am

lol...rose, surprised youre back :D

4:42 am

spritey, i think he's just te4ing me. if i put the hard word on him....hmmmmm

4:42 am

hey smores....nice to see you too

4:42 am

hmmm don't use the word... just the nekkidness :)

4:43 am

Well sprite, as Curtis Mayfield said " Keep on Pushing"

4:43 am

will do! One of the few things I have going for me: I never give up.

4:44 am

Rose it sounds like hubby is taking advantage of mama being away-lol

4:44 am

:) {sprite}

4:44 am

:) *notices that rose has fallen silent now*

4:45 am

yay, work just phoned. was supposed to start at 9:30am, with a ward meeting at 7am. was not happy with that. but now they want me to start at 8am...so will have only 30 or so minutes after meeting. so much better.

4:45 am

thats the best attitude to have Sprite---My sister went through a very bad depression and it took awhile to overcome it but she is so much better now

4:46 am

ah good, rose. Still taxing, but at least a bit better.

4:46 am

that is great to hear, puglet. Wtg on your sister.

4:46 am

*giggle* puglet, right on, hun. he would never appear in this state of undress if she was in the house.

4:46 am

haha and an extra hour at home :)

4:47 am

go for it, rose. Grab him!

4:47 am

Just live it up Rose!!

4:48 am

yeah!!!~ puglet, so true, will be home about 5:30pm instead of 7:30pm...more time to babble....ummm, that's not what you me4t, right?

4:49 am

everyone their own, rose. But babbling isn't usually advisable while grabbing nekkid husbands to have your wicked way with them.

4:49 am

nope...

4:49 am

rofl, sprite

4:50 am

You were wanting to release some stress---so there you go!

4:50 am

some take it personally, you see

4:50 am

you evil ladies...putting such thoughts into my head...oh, honey??!!??

4:50 am

teehee...definately sprite

4:50 am

good! As if you need us for that, grin.

4:51 am

:)

4:52 am

Rose why not just take the day off? Sure you could find plenty to do at home!

4:52 am

please excuse me....have just had a definitely better offer. please don't be offended...lol

4:53 am

sure Rose!

4:53 am

go girrrrrl :)

4:53 am

puglet(before i bow outta here) until son and his wife start paying some rent for the house, i have to meet certain obligations..i.e. a mortgage

4:54 am

bye rose .... enjoy :)

4:54 am

*poof* no encouragement needed...CHESHIRE CAT GRIN

4:54 am

so sorry Rose --but enjoy what ya get!!hagd

4:55 am

keeping fingers crossed that the rent paying stuff is gonna work out now

4:55 am

*hugs* for rose

4:55 am

hail!hail!

4:56 am

the problems we all have!!!

4:56 am

so many choices, so little ti4

4:57 am

I keep wanting to spell horsemen from the top--lol

4:57 am

so close! Would have been a great word.

4:58 am

:D definately

4:59 am

does anyone have a clue to the u word-plz

4:59 am

ut4/5 almost what we both tried earlier

4:59 am

ut4 - ut + ** the world turns

5:00 am

diff. 2nd vowel

5:03 am

are we back?

5:04 am

sorry guys lost my internet connection

5:04 am

looks like it, though my last post got ea5. Said I had found 2 biggies that are almost the stuff that is so important for depressed people... for their brains

5:04 am

hiya puglet, at 5 am is the new hiccup ti4 for babble.

5:05 am

thanks

5:13 am

oooo...got re9/8 thanks sprite :)

5:13 am

just need the 10 now for nbt/nbs

5:15 am

wtg smores! I meant the se8/9 though, grin. The su10 is a new one for me. End in plural political party, if that makes sense.

5:19 am

Have you guys seen on the news about those 3 women that were kidnapped 10 years ago

5:19 am

no, I never watch news. Have they been found?

5:20 am

yes--all three in a home in Ohio

5:20 am

alive?

5:21 am

YES! they were kepted tied and locked up

5:21 am

I caught just a bit of it...so thankful that man didn't get walk on by

5:21 am

one was 16 when she taken and one was 14 and the other 21

5:21 am

omg for 10 years... they must be so hurt and damaged.

5:22 am

so true---three brothers were holding them

5:22 am

yes...but at least they are alive and finally free

5:22 am

the one has a little girl from the ordea;

5:23 am

I doubt they ever will be free again. But thank God they are no longer in the hands of those... men.

5:23 am

ugh...sick bastards

5:24 am

true...sprite

5:24 am

uggg I know! As time goes by more will be learned

5:25 am

what those girls and their family has went through is so awful

5:26 am

I hope they will keep the press away from the women. And from the families.

5:26 am

I don't recall the girls name...but this happened a few years ago too....one of the networks did a follow up and she is doing remarkable well...hope same holds true for these ladies

5:26 am

She wrote a great book called "A Stolen Life". An excellent read!

5:32 am

I hope those men gets put away for life

5:35 am

I can't even imagine...

5:36 am

their families must be ecstatic and horrified at the same time

5:36 am

5:40 am

Hey Mimi {hugs}

5:40 am

5:41 am

5:41 am

{smores}

5:41 am

Hi, pug.

5:42 am

Darn, I just missed sprite!

5:43 am

teehee... my daughters kitty is in the grid

5:43 am

Snarf

5:45 am

I love these large grids at first---so many words so fast.

5:46 am

yep...me too :)

5:46 am

yeah me too

5:46 am

Feel really smart for about 15 minutes1

5:47 am

:)

5:47 am

That 1 is supposed to be a !....am typing in the dark.

5:50 am

wheee...found another 9 :)

5:51 am

I hate leaving wonderful company but chores are calling me away--hope e1 has a great day!

5:51 am

You have a good one, too, puglet.

5:51 am

Bye puglet...hope you have a wonderful day as well :)

5:52 am

Well, I didn't even get 15 minutes this time....the stupid has returned!

5:52 am

I have 9 more minutes

5:52 am

lol...you are sooooo not stupid

5:52 am

That's right...you're working now?

5:53 am

yes...I must get daughter up at 7 then we both need to leave at 8

5:54 am

I'm still looking, alas.

5:54 am

so many things I should be doing...but, here I am :)

5:54 am

still praying for ya Mimi :)

5:55 am

I'm thinking about ending the search until after the summer. Worried about walking to and from the bus in 110-degree heat.

5:56 am

eekk...yeah that's not good

5:57 am

I can do the walking but can't take the heat at all. Cardiologist thinks my thyroid is totally out of whack. Am working on getting it checked so I can get on synthroid and start feeling better.

5:57 am

It's HELL getting OLD!

5:58 am

:)

5:59 am

how far is the bus stop for you?

6:00 am

The north-south one is nearly 1/4 mi. but the east-west is just at the corner and close. Of course, most places I need to go are north-south.

6:01 am

of course

6:02 am

I'm proud that I can walk the distance just a year after a heart attack, though. One job interview I went on a month ago I had to walk 1/2 mile to and from the bus to the office...but I did it in 12 minutes!

6:02 am

wow...good for you

6:03 am

Yep---tough old broad!

6:03 am

Oh, good, now the phantoms are coming: freak.

6:04 am

kinda good you didn't get that one though...hate for you to have to do that on a regular basis...especially in bad weather

6:04 am

:) pug had a great one earlier; horsemen

6:05 am

Yes, I agree. That one might have just killed me off! Have decided to only look for part-time anyway since I'm not sure I'm up to full-time. At least I have rent covered as of July with early retirement.

6:05 am

mine was; minute

6:06 am

Hope you can find one close that's just right for you :)

6:06 am

I keep trying taser but guess it's not in the lingo yet...or is that a z instead of an s?

6:06 am

eekkk...my time is unfortunately up

6:07 am

I'm still waiting to hear from one that would be working at home.

6:07 am

Bye for now..have a wonderful day dear {hugs}

6:07 am

HAGD, dear....maybe I'll see you later. Big hug.

6:07 am

that would be great :)

6:08 am

should have time to babble about 7:30 tonight

6:08 am

bye :)

6:08 am

Ooops---PB for me!

6:31 am

good morning darlings - nbt in 22 words yehaa!

6:33 am

good morning everyone.mimi. Taser is a acronym Thomas E Swifts Electronic Rifle

6:34 am

I was thinking about the weapon...is that a z?

6:34 am

one of my favorite tidbits from the past

6:34 am

that is the weapon

6:34 am

Hi, Trif!

6:34 am

Im pretty stoked - day off, big fatty grid. it's good to be me

6:34 am

Got the tidbits up early today!

6:35 am

In that case, Trif, can I be you today?!!!

6:35 am

hi mimi! mind you, I always STINK at remembering to add plurals, so today is gonna be an opportunity for me to work on that

6:36 am

I do great the first 15 minutes of these big grids but then the stupid returns!

6:36 am

sounds like me:/

6:36 am

I call that "gridlock" mimi

6:37 am

Sorry, crossy....haven't slept so am a bit punchy....at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

6:38 am

It's only 4:30 here and I finally gave up trying to sleep at 3.

6:39 am

"you know you have arrived when the best sleep you ever get in a 24 hour period happens anywhere between 1 and 3 in the afternoon

6:39 am

OK---so shouldn't taser, tase and tased be in our accepted words? Tis an imperfect world in which we Babble.

6:40 am

it is indeed and there is a j that is also a proper name today,so why not taser i say

6:41 am

I can't ever nap so have to wait until tonight. Thanks for the support there {crossy}.

6:42 am

I should have tried my foolproof method for falling asleep---start watching a movie I really want to see...that usually does it!

6:43 am

or read a chapter or 3

6:43 am

mimi, I have been waking up at odd hours as well - was up by 5 this morning, ugh

6:43 am

Our birthdays are close, crossy. As of Tuesday I will be officially older than dirt....and glad not to be under it.

6:45 am

Trif, I go through spurts. Lately, I'm falling asleep early but wake up by 2 or 3 so only get a bit of sleep. Didn't even get that much last night.

6:45 am

lol,mimi.i think you said that you are just in your 60,s i think.that is barely middle age for the ladies around here.we seem to have piles of them between 90 and 110 and one was beyond(she has since passed) she was 114!

6:45 am

im really sorry mimi. insomnia is so horrible

6:46 am

i have insomnia and sleep apnea,so i share your slumber woes

6:47 am

I'll be 62 on Tues. OMG, crossy, 114 years old! I don't even want to be anywhere near that old. It's easier for men, though, because according to either Groucho or George Burns "you're only as old as the woman you feel."

6:47 am

funny when you think about it.i have been called a mere pup for days at my current tender age of 50 and here is poor mimi calling herself "older than dirt" just a decade or so later on.so no. you are not

6:48 am

It was a rough decade, dear....

6:48 am

ahh there is nothing like a young lass on your arm to put a gleam in yer eye.just ask tiger woods and his new squeeze lol

6:49 am

ugh crossy

6:49 am

She looks just like his ex.

6:49 am

I dont like seeing them together....gross

6:50 am

and you both win,you can sail through your current age crisis and she gets all your money when you have a thunderclap heart attack while playing kissy-poo one night

6:50 am

oh well. you pick up a snake and it bites you, you don't get to look surprised

6:50 am

One of the reasons I dated some younger men after my divorce was as a sort of retribution for years of trophy wives.

6:50 am

rock ON mimicat!

6:51 am

I've already had the heart attack and wasn't even having any fun first!

6:51 am

hmmm....maybe Mimi Cougar? :)

6:51 am

well,that is no good ,mimi.if you are going to have a heart attack,at least be in the midst of watching the submarine races down by the bay when it happens

6:52 am

Oh, yeah, Trif---had to fight off the young men with a stick there for awhile. The youngest one was after me for 2 years and I finally went out with him...he was 32 years younger than me.

6:52 am

go mimi go!

6:52 am

mimi is a cougar!!! hid your 20-somethings!

6:53 am

hehe

6:53 am

thank goodness primo is safe and settled! lol

6:53 am

I felt like I needed someone's permission to go out with him, though, so I called my daughter and asked if that was just going beyond the bounds of good taste. She had no problem with it. But it wasn't fun...in my mind when he said something I was patting him on the head and thinking "Oh, you'll outgrow that."

6:53 am

actually all the 20-something guys i have known who have been involved with cougars have all been willing victims:))

6:54 am

lol,kept wanting to give him a lolly and send him out to play

6:54 am

They were the predatory ones, not me, crossy. I just kind of went along for the ride. However, now I have decided the amusement park is closed.

6:55 am

mimi, I think what you did is wonderful, and quite smart, especially post-divorce. I dated a couple of people who were WAY outside of my comfort zone, but how else was I going to figure out what I wanted? chalk it all up to lessons well learned, and move on smarter and more sure of yourself

6:55 am

it can be tough when you cannot relate to the same experiences,same songs,same memories.something is always lacking that is there with someone your own age bracket

6:56 am

I've been blessed with many wonderful men in my life (and a couple of stinkers) so no complaints....just done.

6:56 am

You're so right, crossy. No real companionship without common experience and frames of reference.

6:57 am

i mean when you say that you had a awsome 8-track tape collection back in the day,what you do not want is a blank confused stare coming back at you hehe

6:58 am

yes,unless you are having sex 24-7, you have to have companionship and frames of reference:))

6:58 am

My best friend (female) has been my best friend for 44 years. We always say we'll end up being roomies again, rocking on the porch and waiting for our meds to kick in!

6:59 am

Don't want to turn the chat blue, but that really young guy was a tiny gentleman..........

6:59 am

lol.chat is rolling along fine mimi,no worries

6:59 am

Let me tell you...sometimes size DOES matter!

6:59 am

i have to take these big grids in bites anyways

7:01 am

lol!!

7:01 am

Oh, funny story about that...the condom broke and he was all upset. I worried maybe he had a disease but he was concerned about me getting PREGNANT! I was 54!

7:01 am

omg

7:02 am

It took all my control not to burst out laughing! I assured him that ship had sailed, sank, was under the sand...gone!

7:02 am

lol,what did carlin say? "it is not size that mattes,but the motion on the ocean...yea,but it takes a long time to get to england in a row boat right?"

7:03 am

ROFL!!! Exactly right, crossy! Good one!

7:03 am

hahahaha

7:04 am

crossy imagines proper babble ladies spurting their morning coffee all over monitors world wide...

7:04 am

I have always enjoyed: "I did not expect such a small organ!" "well, I did not expect to be playing in a cathedral!?"

7:04 am

crossy said "spurting"

7:04 am

Trif...lol

7:05 am

easytrif...lol

7:05 am

LOL, Trif!

7:05 am

we better get some chocolate in here stat!

7:06 am

I haven't even had my morning tea yet...must get it brewing!

7:06 am

yes,i have not had my morning cuppa yet either:(

7:07 am

it is however,usually when i am at my most sharp and wittiest because after i actually wake up my brain just gets in the way of things.as Mr Clemons said "write drunk,edit sober"

7:08 am

Still dark outside here at 5 am. My cats are looking at me like I've lost my mind for being up and at the computer since 3...they may have a point.

7:08 am

it is 08:08 am here and a glorious sunny early summer morning

7:08 am

good morning all

7:08 am

topic change - have a wedding to attend in a couple of weeks. the service is at 530, which has me thinking "formal" but is being held outside at a country inn, which has me thinking "not so formal" - any sartorial advice out there?

7:09 am

cats are losing their minds at the windows becase all the birds are falling off branches while having birdie sex

7:09 am

Not many more good mornings here as soon it will be 100 degrees even in the week hours...hate that.

7:09 am

country club casual i think

7:10 am

Never formal unless it's written on the invitation.

7:10 am

Layers maybe, Trif? Country silky dress with a little jacket that can either be on or off?

7:11 am

This is the blues chat in a long time! You guys are too funny

7:11 am

bluest*

7:11 am

{{crossy}}

7:12 am

hello molly

7:12 am

((ruby)) speak up as the sounds of busy birds is deafening!

7:12 am

hello blue mi i

7:12 am

{ruby} Yep---having fun while semi-conscious.

7:12 am

here, too, the only birds who "sing" are the merles (drab black birds). The pretty, colorful ones all squawks

7:13 am

Do you still have your company visiting, ruby?

7:13 am

yes, now it's our friend Joanne from Miami who is here for the food, drinks and company

7:13 am

She's a pleasure

7:14 am

That's nice...I trust she didn't take a rowboat there!

7:14 am

lol,mimi,you are a naughty one

7:14 am

she's visited many times, maybe 12 over the years

7:15 am

That one was just for you, crossy!

7:15 am

I am plagued by a young stud of a cardinal who sings his fool head off every morning in the holly tree right below my window. I feel sorry for him

7:15 am

perhaps there's a cardinals seeking cardinal on line

7:16 am

{{trif}}

7:16 am

last week I saw him out there, doing his level best, whilst in a nearby tree sat two female cardinals who could have GIVEN less of a sh*t, just make him shut up already

7:16 am

no cardinals in France (except for the churchly ones)

7:16 am

yup,the old "come here,come here,get away" ploy

7:16 am

haha, trifioso

7:16 am

we might share the same stud cardinal neighbor

7:17 am

hello mael

7:17 am

he must be a bird nerd, or something

7:17 am

Hi, mael!

7:17 am

hi ruby and all, good morning

7:17 am

hi mimi!

7:17 am

howdy,mael

7:17 am

I have beggar cardinals. They sit outside and chirp until I put the bird seed out.

7:18 am

I was a bird nerd and I still found a husband (who is also a bird nerd ;), maybe the cardinal is tweeting out of his league

7:18 am

stats for the 10 pls and any 9, for nbs

7:18 am

well, that's rude molly!

7:18 am

approaching vermin status, really

7:18 am

hi crossy, did you have a good birthday?

7:18 am

My tummy is now officially upset so am going to go have tea and toast. BBL....hugs all around...fun chat.

7:18 am

feel better mimi!

7:19 am

my husband puts out so much sunflower seed, that we have a long-haired mouse famiy living Under the feeder, so bold that they come out in the daytime

7:19 am

i did indeed,mael

7:19 am

I saw a coyote in the daytime last week - that really threw me. just walking along, not a care in the world, some sort of mammal dangling out of his mouth

7:19 am

oh no! The 2 days I don't come on, I miss crossy's birthday. {{big hugs}} and many many more happy ones, Mr. Crossy

7:20 am

Buster dog has started bringing toys to Baby Sister

7:24 am

7:24 am

7:24 am

cujo

7:24 am

cudjo

7:25 am

yaa for une!! ding,ding!!

7:25 am

7:25 am

:( didn't know how to spell it.....

7:25 am

Ruby, Cudjo is Stephen King's cow. : P

7:25 am

ah, missed my chance, crossy. Stephen King is one of my favorite authors

7:26 am

lol, molly

7:26 am

now for bonus bacon tell me what his next 2 books will be about:))

7:26 am

we have tiny "red throats" and when the female craashed into the window and died, her husband used to come walking into the (alwys-iopen) house looking for her

7:26 am

molly LOL!!

7:26 am

aaawwww ruby

7:27 am

if his last half dozen are any indication, they'll be about Stephen King recovering from his accident and getting off coke :)

7:27 am

hahah molly

7:27 am

I named my "pet" mouse Mr. Jingles.....

7:27 am

lool! one will be the shining part 2 and the other is to be about a haunted/evil carnival

7:28 am

all carnivals are haunted and evil. its the carnies....

7:28 am

Good morning!

7:28 am

car!!!

7:28 am

I kid because I love, I'm reading Under the Dome right now

7:28 am

Something Wicked This Way Comes

7:28 am

car!!!!

7:28 am

hi car

7:29 am

hey car :-)

7:29 am

hello car.

7:29 am

under the dome was ok,but in my mind not one of his better works.now, 11/22/63 was awsome

7:29 am

All together now, HI CAR

7:29 am

Norm!

7:30 am

and now it is time for crossy's tidbit of the day!!!

7:30 am

Habitual singing causes the lungs to release leptin, a protein manufactured by the body’s fat cells that is involved in the regulation of appetite. This may partially explain why opera stars tend to lean toward the heavy end of the scale.

7:30 am

I never finished Under The Dome. I could not stay interested in it.

7:30 am

<---Loves a good Cheers reference : )

7:30 am

I'm only four or so chapters in, Molly

7:31 am

ta, molly!

7:31 am

but rural New England is always my ideal setting :)

7:31 am

so crossy - I can blame my weight on singing?

7:31 am

it is still a good read,mael,but just pales a bit after a while

7:31 am

Good Morning friends

7:31 am

Well, that explains it! I sing too much! I knew it wasn't just my shitty eating habits and lack of exercie!

7:31 am

Mael, I even tried listening to it as an audio book. He just couldn't seem to get to the point.

7:31 am

brb...bus...

7:31 am

River! hello hello

7:31 am

lol,it is all the singings fault!!

7:32 am

waiting to watch under the dome tv miniseries this summer

7:32 am

howdy river!

7:32 am

what a beautiful morning it is - but much needed rain coming in later

7:32 am

heres my tip of the day - if you ever find yourself in a folk song, DO NOT go down by the river

7:32 am

trif LOL

7:32 am

not riverdance, of course - shes perfectly safe!

7:32 am

: D Trif!

7:32 am

lol trif

7:33 am

hello everyone...pouring buckets here, bet bichon is happy

7:33 am

we already got our first rain storm this morning, I am so happy, river

7:33 am

{{annie}}

7:33 am

we need the rain so badly

7:33 am

hey annie :-)

7:33 am

Annie, you have the weather we had yesterday.

7:33 am

and we are a half day or so behind Annie

7:34 am

actually here is a tip a la Mr KIng. "if you find yourself in a hotel in the middle of nowhere and a river of blood gets off on the second floor,GET THE HELL OUT! do not even stop to pack your tooth brush,just go"

7:34 am

I agree about the rain, though it seems incredible - not long ago we were up to our armpits in snow, and now we need rain. I call shenanigans on new england

7:34 am

having one sunny day, then rain returns . . .

7:34 am

sage advice, crossy

7:34 am

I've been in hôtels like that, crossy. We once stayed in one with stuffed bats over the doorways

7:34 am

and the rain we had on Sunday (1.96") :-) Good morning everyone

7:35 am

we have had glorious sun for the last 8 days or so:))

7:35 am

yes crossy and beware of twins!!!

7:35 am

bats are the best mosquito killers

7:35 am

good morning, mom

7:35 am

hello ((Mom)) now the gangs all here

7:35 am

uh, yeah crossy. I'd go with that hotel plan

7:35 am

((Ruby)) good morning

7:35 am

we have lots of bats but I prefer them alive than stuffed

7:35 am

and I'm back

7:35 am

hey mom :-)

7:35 am

((River)) good morning so good to see you

7:36 am

((Car.)) good morning

7:36 am

hello back

7:36 am

we had so much rain without sunshine until about a week ago but now need rain

7:36 am

lol,i missed the stuffed part!

7:36 am

give your bats a house and they will stay away from making yours their own. I love watching the bats swoop at dusk

7:36 am

The repairmen are here to fix my wall. Explain later

7:36 am

I wish I could get more bats around here, but I have too many trees, and thus too many mozzies

7:37 am

we are very heavily wooded where I live but we still have plenty of bats

7:37 am

bathouses are easy to make!

7:37 am

my beloved hates bats.as a teen at a outdoor party one summer evening she had a bat swoop down at dusk and get entangled in her waist lenght hair

7:37 am

yikes....

7:37 am

((une)) good morning

7:38 am

that happened to me once too, crossy in ireland. and when I told my friends the story, every single one of them asked how big the bat was. How big do they NEED it to be?

7:38 am

bye ((Annie))

7:38 am

mozzies?

7:38 am

There is a bat cave in the cliff above the house and the bats cme down at dusk to drindk from the fishpond. They are gorgeous to Watch and look like tiny black butterflies

7:38 am

after the bats got under trim boards of my house, we got them a very cute bat house and hung it on the side of the house....they now leave my trim alone

7:38 am

mosquitoes, crossy

7:38 am

ahh ok

7:39 am

how very cool, ruby!!!!!

7:39 am

aaahh we call them skeeters:-)

7:39 am

and if I stand in the garden or on the deck, they come very close and make circles, just out of reach

7:39 am

here we give then the full name they deserve because at the right time they are almost large enough at times to put a lease on them and take them for a walk:(

7:39 am

phantom: educate

7:39 am

leash

7:40 am

half, nbt and nbs yay

7:40 am

go Ruby

7:40 am

car, is anything much being planned for sunday?

7:40 am

I need an 8 and 9 to get there

7:40 am

7:40 am

Nothing that I know of yet.

7:41 am

7:41 am

Bye Une!

7:41 am

10:15 am

I'm here, but I am not particularly talkative...

10:16 am

ah

10:17 am

Anyway, a lot of the conversation goes as far as "wtg" and "gg" and that's not all that stimulating

10:18 am

yes i don't care for that kind of conversation either.

10:19 am

non-grid related, but word-related, i was wishing the other day that "crepit" could be a word, the opposite of decrepit.

10:19 am

tadone! finito!!

10:19 am

10:20 am

I just did one of my twice yearly watchings of that movie the other night. Great line: Do you have any control over how creepy you allow yourself to become? : D

1:36 pm

How do you write women so well? I just think of a man. And take away reason and accountability.

1:37 pm

i dont AGREE, but it always makes me giggle. :)

1:37 pm

As Good As It Gets

1:43 pm

ah, great movie

1:43 pm

And I'm trying to get used to progressive lenses...

1:45 pm

I love Greg Kinnear. He might have a new TV drama this Fall if it gets picked up.

1:45 pm

just need one more 7. then my OCD can settle down!

OCDis a bitch.

Just saying.

1:50 pm

ive never been diagnosed, but i've always believed i have a really mild case of it.

1:54 pm

I never got used to my progressive lenses. I despise them. Others like them fine.

1:56 pm

This is the first pair of Rx glasses I have had in over ten years.

1:57 pm

When did we go from trifocals to progressive lenses?

2:00 pm

Progressive just sounds younger.

2:00 pm

: D

2:02 pm

Next people will have "sound enhancers" in their ears.

2:03 pm

My computer screen doesn't look square. A little wonky.

2:06 pm

ty for the sa7/8/9

2:07 pm

I am missing a 9 and several 8's as well as a lot of other words. was up at the flip with insominia :(

Aren't those called hearing aids, Molly?

2:08 pm

hi all

2:08 pm

HELLO E1

2:11 pm

Well they were called hearing aids. But if trifocals are now progressive lenses, we should have a hip, young sounding name for hearing aids too.

You're right. Hearing aids are freaking amazing now.

They certainly could use a new name

We went from bi- or trifocals with little lines at the joins which were a real pain, at least at first,and resulted in people doing a lot of tilting their heads to see through the right bit, to having a "smooth, gradual" transition - novisible line - which leaves you feeling dizzy every time you look down for a couple of weeks. But after that they really are better. I can't speak to improvements in hearing aids!

My 16 year old cousin has hearing aids. They wirelessly connect to her phone, ipod, guitar, keyboard... pretty much anything. They're very cool.

2:17 pm

They're announcing the verdict in the Jodi Arias murder trial in an hour..has anyone been following it? She stabbed her boyfriend 29 times and shot him a couple of times....I admire her restraint.

2:18 pm

What was her motive?

2:18 pm

Ive just caught bits of it

2:19 pm

Ive been trying to follow the story of the 3 women found in Ohio

2:20 pm

She tried to claim self defense due to abuse but I think she got really angry because he wanted to break up with her. I think they'll come in with 2nd degree murder instead of 1st or manslaughter. Arizona is tough on all kind of crime.

2:21 pm

They didn't prove premeditation?

2:21 pm

I mean, really, stabbing him that many times and shooting him? She was enraged. Don't see any justification. I'd give her first degree but the jury came back fairly quickly.

2:22 pm

I haven't been following it closely. Once I saw how many times she stabbed him and shot him, too, there was nothing else I needed to hear.

I haven't heard about that one but cracking up at how you admire her restraint :)

2:23 pm

sounds like she lost control

2:25 pm

Old joke, Alexis. I actually abhor violence in any form. Though when I was married, my fantasy life was often rich with ways I could kill him and get rid of the body!

2:26 pm

The phantom I just saw is a bit appropriate: hormones.

Ya... you know the relationship is over when you fantasize about his death. Been there.

2:31 pm

There are lots of places here in the desert to get rid of a body.

2:32 pm

Aw, Jeanne Cooper died. Kaye Chancellor was one of the classiest broads on Daytime TV.

2:32 pm

aw--that wil be a big hole in the show

2:34 pm

Did you know she was Corbin Bernsen's mother---he was on LA Law as Arnie.

3:22 pm

I was looking for that one! TY

3:23 pm

Glad to be os service to you Bea. You were so helpful earlier

3:35 pm

Ts are trampled - 7, 8. 9, 10s are greyed out - time to go start dinner

3:50 pm

oooh, loving the look of your alternating icons, cool and bea :)

3:52 pm

Hey, dc.

3:53 pm

Rather quiet in here this afternoon.

3:58 pm

stomped out the Ss - all 67 of them

3:58 pm

I was getting ready to groan about how many there are, but I'm done with them too.

4:01 pm

Some day I am going to live in a house where I never have to hear a sander or a saw or a nail gun...<sigh>

4:07 pm

Well, folks, Jodi Arias got 1st degree murder---penalty phase re death or life in prison tomorrow...just verdict, I believe.

4:08 pm

And I'm sure she was shocked...

4:10 pm

I haven't been into that trial, but one of my coworkers has kept me will informed....Hello all

4:12 pm

She showed no emotion. The crowd outside the courtroom cheered...well, yeah, I guess.

4:12 pm

The victim's family broke down and cried. Imagine having to go through something like this for over 4 years....I'd need heavy medication.

4:12 pm

Kind of hard to put on a good self defense case when you have stabbed someone that many times.

4:14 pm

And shot him, too. Gee, did she think he would come back from the dead? She was like so many men, I feel, with the attitude "If I can't have you, no one can." Crazy.

4:24 pm

Guess that's where we get the expression "overkill"...

4:36 pm

Well, now that the chog is killed and I have 54 left...bbl *poof*

4:42 pm

howdy again my friends.i am back to let this grid beat me up a bit more:)

4:44 pm

Hello, Crossy..the grid does not seem to be too bad..saying that..i still need 73 more words.

4:45 pm

well,i have most of the biggies,no i just need to plow through what are most likely 116 four letter babblets;))

4:48 pm

Ok down to 64 now..but have not come across any babblets yet.

4:50 pm

For the size of the grid, that has surprised me.

4:50 pm

Sure wish lickety had a minimizing tab for each section - especially on these big grids. Then I wouldn't have to scroll up and down the entire list.

4:52 pm

Momof5..i use the xbox360 to play.and it does not have any tabs..so i have to come off of the babble site to lok at the list then come off of lickety and back onto babble..lol...probably why i do not use the list often..and just stay on babble for many hours.

4:53 pm

But i still enjoy it..and thats what counts.

4:54 pm

I have a windows machine and can see 2 screens at the same time. So I refer back and forth from Babble to Lickety.

4:54 pm

I usually wait until I just can't find any more, then load lickety. Then, I try to find all the 4-letter words to get them out of the way. That usually helps.

4:56 pm

I usually wait for people to clue the large words.. teehee.

4:56 pm

Me too!

4:56 pm

I am too easily confused to use split screen : O

4:56 pm

Once in awhile I find them on my own.

4:57 pm

At least you're honest Zoom : )

4:57 pm

I love split screen. You can have as many windows open as you like (ie: Babble, Lickety, MoreWords)

4:57 pm

i also use two screens,but mostly to glean hints from chog history when i am stuck that way i can work the grid and read the chog history at the same time.i do not use licketys too much anymore

4:58 pm

a spilt screen that is,not two seperate screens

4:58 pm

34 left. All M's and N's.

4:59 pm

I try to challenge myself to get 60% without aids, then I go from there. I've only been able to finish a few without any aids.

4:59 pm

So many different ways to play. I still haven't figured out why people think nbt and nbs are important though.

5:00 pm

I try to get at least half of the words from each letter + NBT & NBS

5:00 pm

I think it's just a way to add some goals to the fun.

5:00 pm

Many people only play until they have at least one form each tile.

5:01 pm

it is a milestone of course.it gives a sense of acheivement and a waypoint to use on the road to finishing

5:02 pm

Everyone has their own method. I start with a corner tile and try to get as many as I can before moving to the next. Just what I like to do. Sometimes I go for nbt/nbs

5:02 pm

My challenge of the day is, "What's for dinner?"

5:02 pm

lol

5:02 pm

same reason i put tidbits in the chog,many like it,some thing it is a bore,or idiotic,but it adds depth and facets to the gaming experience as does nbt,nbs and various forms of cluing words

5:03 pm

I hear ya BzznBea. As well as, "Who's gonna cook it?" (instead of me)

5:03 pm

I know who is going to cook it. ME!

5:04 pm

Probably why people who play Babble do so for years without becoming bored with the game

momof5 - I do the same

start from a corner

sorry for lurking

but I am at work.... ;-)

5:04 pm

What are you cooking, bzznbea

5:05 pm

I have some taco seasoned chicken and tortilla shells. Some thing will come of that.

5:05 pm

hmmm... I have some leftover grilled chicken. Maybe I will join you.

5:07 pm

Hubs is going to fuss because I do not have chips. I hope I have sour cream...

5:08 pm

I have chips, sourcream, avocado, salsa, seasoning, tortilla shells. Seems I had all the fixins and you gave me the suggestion.

5:08 pm

I was reading back about various techniques for playing Babble. Mine is simple...I play until it's no longer fun and then I quit---no goals. Takes all kinds!

5:08 pm

And {crossy} still love those tidbits!

I love the tidbits too

I am a bit ocd... working from the corner satisfies on several levels

5:09 pm

Funny how we can just pull dinner out of our...out of the air...

5:09 pm

I like tidbits & bacon :-)

Ha ha... our of our ....air....;-P

5:10 pm

Many accuse me of being an efficiency expert, detailed, organized (not always to their liking). Probably why I like this game and why I play it the way I do.

5:11 pm

Oh, and I'm having my own recipe of chicken spaghetti tonight. Easy, fast, and when I make a double batch I don't have to cook again until Sunday. Lots of caramelized onion and mushrooms with cut up rotisserie chicken, spaghetti sauce and fresh pasta---all in one Dutch oven and simmer. Top with parmesan...yum. And better the second and third day.

5:11 pm

Avocado & crispy bacon..Yum.

5:12 pm

I'm starting to get hungry, but it's only 3pm

5:12 pm

Sounds lovely, Mimi.

5:13 pm

11:13pm here.

5:13 pm

My specialty is easy, few ingredients, economical. That's why I share so many recipes with people and they seem to love them. Happy to do so...already in my computer so just have to send.

5:14 pm

So far the biggest favorite is the mock chile relleno.

5:14 pm

mimi do you make your own spaghetti sauce

5:14 pm

Why is it "mock"?

5:14 pm

mmmm,bacon tidbits in avacado dip

5:15 pm

Nope, I use Hunt's canned Garlic and Herb sauce...good, inexpensive and easy.

5:15 pm

The rotisserie chickens have too much sodium in them for me, so I roast my own and chop the meat and freeze in recipe size freezer bags.

5:15 pm

can you put that recipe in your profile thanks I love all kinds of spagetti

5:15 pm

Do you add any seasoning, Molly?

5:16 pm

Yep, a bunch of herbs, garlic powder and onion powder.

5:16 pm

It's mock because it tastes a lot like the real relleno but is so much easier and travels well. Can use as a meal or as an appetizer.

5:16 pm

Mimi, does it use chilis?

5:16 pm

Speed, could you send your email to me at catjdesigns@yahoo.com and I'll send the recipe to you by reply?

5:17 pm

Molly, I have a chicken rub similar and it has a bit of sugar in it.

5:17 pm

Yes, it uses the mild whole green chiles but you could use jalapeno if you want it really spicy. Anyone who wants these, just email me at catjdesigns@yahoo.com and will happily send along. You'll love these.

5:17 pm

Never thought of sugar, Bea. I'll try that next time.

5:17 pm

sure will and I will put Babble Recipes so you know it is me

5:18 pm

It's too bad we don't have a recipe board here.

5:18 pm

You can also put a bit of sugar in spaghetti sauce to cut the acidity.

5:19 pm

OK, speed, will look for the email. Will send as soon as I see your message.

5:19 pm

Yes, Mimi, that is Hubs "secret" ingredient when he does pasta sauce.

5:19 pm

Garlic powder?..Molly does not want garlic fingers hehe.

5:19 pm

Don't say that to an Italian. Sugar is verboten in spaghetti sauce to most Italians.

5:20 pm

I like fresh garlic Zoom. But the powders work better in meat rubs.

5:21 pm

My daughter's secret ingredient in her pasta sauce is dill pickle juice. LOL!

5:21 pm

I'm really weird...whenever I'm sick I crave Italian--mostly spaghetti. Molly, I like the acidity myself so I don't use sugar but many really like it.

5:21 pm

message sent MimiCat

5:21 pm

True..but i find you have to be so careful..otherwise it is very over powering.

5:22 pm

When I make up recipes, I try to include variables so they can change and also accommodate many tastes.

5:22 pm

Dill pickle juice..now that is just gross..YUCK.

5:22 pm

She thinks everything should have dill pickle juice in it.

5:22 pm

<-------Hates dill pickles.

5:22 pm

brb

5:23 pm

It's funny, speed---noticed your NASCAR icon. I used to work pit crew (keeping time) and used to party on Bobby Unser's houseboat.

5:23 pm

Lucky you MimiCat

5:23 pm

Zoo, my ex thinks pickles are inedible...hates them.

5:24 pm

That was MANY years ago..in my jaded youth.

5:24 pm

Glad i am not the only one then, Mimi :-)

Could I get a clue for re9, please?

5:26 pm

OK---leaving for a bit to tend to email recipes. If anyone else wants recipes, let me know. Have a great chicken paprikash and also cauliflower casserole and others.

5:27 pm

re + tape with many uses + last three of what you put flowers in

5:27 pm

I too must leave to get ready for a job I have this evening.

thanks, I got it but how about re8, please?

5:28 pm

Same thing, ends in either **

Thanks got it

5:30 pm

Anyway, a recipe exchange board would be cool. Some people prefer to not share their email addresses. I suppose we could start a thread at Babanon, but not many people go there.

re7/28, please?

5:32 pm

re+ double consonant + last three of flower vessel

thanks got it

5:37 pm

years ago BAbbles put recipes in bab anon. I know I did and stidmama did. wonder if they are still there

5:38 pm

hi all, back to finish

5:40 pm

Hello, Peri.

5:42 pm

Nope. Someone flushes that board periodically. I have no idea why.

5:42 pm

oh, I did not know that

5:43 pm

becase if to mannylegacy posts are retained on some sitesnew post can be lost by mistake.it happens a fair bit in dedicated facebook rooms

5:43 pm

so,there is a cleansing every once in a while

5:44 pm

I take that back, there is a recipes thread in meet and greet.

5:45 pm

ah, I must check that then

5:46 pm

Tons of them from someone called metalleather. Looks like every recipe I've ever seen on the internet.

5:47 pm

never heard of that person

5:47 pm

anything from me or stid?

5:47 pm

Yep

5:48 pm

I have no en words

5:48 pm

5:49 pm

Speedfreak, if you're still here, the recipes were sent. I had to find you in my Spam so if they're not in your email, check there. Bye, everyone, and hugs all around.

5:55 pm

Sounds like a fun day trip.

5:55 pm

5:55 pm

Nope. I went there once, a long time ago on a class trip. That's it.

5:56 pm

if you ever decide to come I would be glad to meet you

5:56 pm

lots to see downtown

5:56 pm

I hate when I cannot find a word on morewords

6:03 pm

I am hungry for fruit and there is none in the house and I am too lazy to go to the store

6:04 pm

Sadly, I rarely crave healthy food.

6:05 pm

:(

6:05 pm

I eat it often enough, but it's nothing I ever get a hankering for. Usually that is sweets or something with a lot of cheese involved.

6:05 pm

I had mexican food for lunch at a new place and I did not like it. I don't know what kind of cheese they used but it was not tasty

6:06 pm

I love sweets and cheese too . I make have a piece of marzapan candy which is in the shape of different fruits.

6:10 pm

I think I put the recipe for Frangipani Cake in babblers anon. it is made with marzipan and is delish. I have not made it in a long time.

su10, please?

6:18 pm

Su10 su**fed medicine + another name for the conservative political party.

6:18 pm

fresh baked breads,buns and bagels are my weakness

6:19 pm

6:20 pm

Fresh baked bread is lush..and the smell is devine.

Put the two together.....

6:20 pm

6:20 pm

Hello, Chrissie.

6:23 pm

6:25 pm

Anyone else have a better clue for the Su 10?

6:25 pm

a standard pound of bacon has 18 to 20 slices,12 to 15 if thick sliced,just enough for two nice crossy bacon sammiches

Hi again :)

7:15 pm

Here for the first time today. Big grid--fun!

7:17 pm

Hey Scrabbler :)

7:17 pm

Hi smores. Trying to finish this?

7:18 pm

got 90 left...was on early this morning

7:18 pm

1st 1/2 is quick

7:19 pm

Hi there, Scrabs. I always think of you on May 10th...we lost our little ones on that day....4 or 5 years ago.

7:20 pm

Yes, May 10, 2008. My Callie bunny and your dog.

7:20 pm

May I please have a clue for em7-32 the 1st? Thanks.

7:20 pm

Hi peach...lost little ones? :(

7:21 pm

Yes, smores, she lost a little bunny and I lost my little 18 yr. old dog. Still remember them tho.

7:22 pm

I got a rescue bunny 3 wks later and she is stretched out on the floor nearby now.

em 7/32 em + vowel + "lovely ****, meter maid"

7:25 pm

Thanks much, Luv.

7:26 pm

Aw, I'm glad Scrabbler.

7:26 pm

lol...thanks Luv...got 3 :)

7:26 pm

There are not enough good homes for pets, so I am a sucker to rescue rabbits. Thus I have 4.

just finished, any other clues needed?

7:27 pm

No, thanks. Just aiming to pass halfway.

7:27 pm

7:27 pm

7:30 pm

Thanks so much, Luv. And Congrats for finishing!!!

thanks gapeach

7:31 pm

Yes, we have many here--walking across my yard twice daily to and from woods.

it seems we have created the ideal environment for them in the suburbs.

7:32 pm

Remove rodent, Owl?

7:33 pm

they gave folks in the village of cayuga heights camersa to record deer behavior. the town is overrun by them.

7:33 pm

as sprite so wonderfully clued it...lol

ar 8/40 ar + hear no evil, **e no evil + not day

7:34 pm

Here, other than motor vehicles, there are no predators. Coyotes can get the old/sick/youngest deer.

thanks got it

7:34 pm

:)

7:34 pm

we have a large deer population as well

the deer are practically tame where I live in Michigan. I can't grow hostas in my yard anymore because they eat them as fast as they grow

the increase in numbers is just astounding. from less than a million to millions

7:36 pm

Hosta, tulips--get mowed down by the deer.

showed them leaping 8 foot fences

7:36 pm

I enjoy seeing them in my yard and in the park. They are beautiful, graceful creatures.

7:36 pm

Deer are pretty tame animals. Unless you mess with their young.

i am paranoid about them. hitting one will do that

7:37 pm

BRB

yeah, but they have no fear of people anymore, I can practically walk right up to them and they just stand there, that's not natural

luv, watch this pbs nature episode.

I'll have to look it up, it would be interesting

7:39 pm

I am watching hockey playoffs, with my visiting sister.

very. unfortunately i had to take a phone call at the 10 minute mark

we have white deer here as well. it is said they are left from a large estate that imported them.

7:40 pm

Wow, I bet those are pretty.

yes. but i have a hard time with them, they really make me nervous. phobic while driving at dawn and dusk.

7:42 pm

wonders what Black Deer would do to TO. :D

the white ones are all in an area called lorimer park. the oldrailroadline has been turned into a bike and hiking path through there.

7:43 pm

rads

7:43 pm

I live next to a State Park that has two major roads that run along either side of it. That totally disorients the deer.

7:44 pm

Free clue!

7:44 pm

Scrabs is so generous : )

oh heck, they can reproduce at 8 months, sooner than any other mammal. no wonder

7:44 pm

I especially like to put the real tough words in the chat. I am THAT nice.

7:45 pm

sounds like Digger Deers

not that generous. when she dops an 8 letter word I'll take heed. :P

7:45 pm

Yes you are Scrabs

7:45 pm

OK, I passed halfway, so I am done.

7:46 pm

Hi and bye, Bichon.

7:46 pm

bye scrabs

back to hockey for scrabs.

7:47 pm

*quietly laughs at his own joke*

i went clothes shopping. proof that i am getting a tad chunky. cannot deny it. :(

Just remember. It is always preferable to meet a stoner than a drunk in a dark alley. The worst thing a stone will do to you is steal your Cheetos.

8:44 pm

yw luv

8:45 pm

ugh...stuck at 51

8:45 pm

8:47 pm

oh boy, this potential trip has potential

at glen echo, that beautiful ballroom in bethesda

8:47 pm

Glen Echo is actually in...Glen Echo : D

8:48 pm

husband would love it simply because it's in bethesda - he's a navyphile

molly do you LOVE glen echo?

8:48 pm

Glen Echo is gorgeous. Other than the Medical Center, Bethesda is not really what I would call a "Navy town".

8:48 pm

danged laundry buzzer. bbl

molly can come dance as we;;:D

i am picturing me je welk and molly in the same rowdy place. it ain't pretty but it sure is fun. :P

8:59 pm

lol...that could get dangerous :)

9:01 pm

oh yeah - but dangerous in a benign sort of way *lol*

9:01 pm

:D

9:04 pm

'course, we have to decide if we want a d.c. week (busy, busy, busy) or an ocean/island week (do nothing, do nothing, do nothing). husband was thinking of cruise, but i wouldn't know how to pick

9:05 pm

well..my time is up...said I would quit at 10

9:05 pm

g'night smores (could you please post the brownie recipe?)

9:05 pm

32 left..but gotta go...bye all :)

9:06 pm

it's in my profile welki ...night :)

9:07 pm

thanks!

i have tweaked it

smores, it takes so long to cool. i put it in the freezerbut it goes from hot hot to cld. i want warm

night smores

9:13 pm

how'd you tweak it?

you will gasp.

9:15 pm

I use cocoa powder in mine, not hot chocolate mix.

i added a about a tb of sugar and 1/2 tb of cocoa. and chips of course. and cut butter to 1 tb. just tried even less butter

and i bake it 55 sec

i always seem to get flour on the bottom

9:17 pm

good evening all.

9:17 pm

Do you put the wet ingredients in first?

molly, how much cocoa? if you don't use cocoa mix then there is no milk or sugar in it

no i mix dry first

hi phan

9:18 pm

how's it giong?

9:19 pm

The recipe I use is: 1/4 cup flour 1/4 cup packed brown sugar 2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder Pinch salt ¼ tsp vanilla 2 Tbsp margarine 2 Tbsp milk, coffee or water Chocolate chips (optional)

cook how long? do you recommend mixing dry into wet?

9:21 pm

Wet first then dry helps to keep flour from sticking to the bottom of the cup. You cook it for a minute.

ty

less than i tb of butter worked

9:26 pm

these are cooked in a mug? what size?

9:28 pm

*thinking of what the microwave would look like if a too-small mug was used*

regular mug, mine is small. wondering if a custard cup would be better

9:29 pm

wow - pyrex custard cups. haven't seen one of them in a long time

just bought six. the corning outlet is back now that corningware is back

even had ones with covers

9:33 pm

cookware was one of my *danger, will robinson* habits - wish i could unload some of my stuff. quiche pans, langue du chat pans, cuisinart dx10, kitchenaid 5 qt mixer, etc- don't need them anymore

9:33 pm

too heavy to ship to the kids

9:33 pm

(and the cookbooks, too)

9:34 pm

i sneak one or two into the kids' bags every time they visit - will take years to empty the shelves :)

wow. you don;t use the kitchenaid?

9:37 pm

no, not really - every now and then i pull it out of the pantry for ol' times sake - but i just don't cook like i used to anymore

9:37 pm

my martha stewart days are over - like really over

9:38 pm

(or marcella hazan :)

do you watch nashville?

9:39 pm

i did toss all my old gourmet and bon appetits - looking for a home for my old sing out mags

9:39 pm

no, never watched nashville

9:39 pm

I watch Nashville TO

9:40 pm

But I am not watching at the moment.

9:40 pm

I'll catch it on stream tomorrow.

i think reyna's oldest is deacon's / they did not say anything but i think so.

9:42 pm

I love to cook. Even though it's just two of us now. I'd rather cook than eat out any day.

what do you think?

9:42 pm

I've thought that Maddie was Deacon's for a long time.

yes, i think you are right.

a good episode so far. did you tivo it?

9:43 pm

In typical soap opera fashion, Maddie will get sick and Deacon will be the only blood type match for her. No, I don't Tivo. I watch on Hulu Plus.

oh. well, i am sorry, feel like a chat hog. hagn and happy babbling. i geel so guilty for the brownie. and the ice cream.

9:52 pm

ohh, i cook, but just don't use the gadgets anymore

9:52 pm

g'night owl

9:53 pm

when i had a houseful, they were handy - i don't 'create' as much as i 'cook' nowadays, but for sure, we're not suffering :)

9:54 pm

anyway, i'm off for the night, too - g'night everyone
