2:06 am

thanks m9

2:07 am

2:07 am

hi sprite

2:07 am

hi m9 and flosey :)

2:08 am

Disney cats?

2:08 am

the disney movie that is about cats. One of the old ones.

2:08 am

Yup. Everybody wants to be a cat....

2:09 am

I googled it

2:10 am

Because a cat's the only cat, that knows where it's at...

2:10 am

or the french word for noblemen... A la lanterne les ar....

2:10 am

Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat, 'cause everything else is obsolete.

2:11 am

Now a square with a horn, can make you wish you weren't born, ever'time he plays; and with a square in the act, he can set music back to the caveman days. I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing, but a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing.

2:11 am

:-D

2:12 am

while playin' jazz you always has a Welcome mat, 'cause everybody digs a swingin' cat.

2:13 am

wow m9, what a memory

2:14 am

I can offer the dutch version, lol, but not the english one

2:14 am

,RhaNK

2:14 am

Well... I knew some of it,LOL.. I looked it up, cause i just had to share it. You dig?

2:14 am

Thanks much, flosey.

2:15 am

76 left. Now, I probably DO know all of 76 trombones...

2:15 am

ah, I loved that movie

2:16 am

don't think I could sing it all the way through

2:16 am

there'd be a lot of lalala's

2:17 am

nothing wrong with lalalalas

2:17 am

I love lalas.

2:19 am

so true, the tune is best

2:19 am

I

2:19 am

missing first ai6, any clues please?

2:20 am

I'm excited to sing this coming Sunday. My friend has an awesome arrangement of Abide With Me 'Tis Eventide.

2:20 am

how lovely, m9

2:20 am

oh, I'd love to hear you, always loved that hymn

2:21 am

my first ai6 starts with what you breathe and ends in what is nice after hard work

2:21 am

The most of what we breathe, flosey.

2:21 am

ah, thanks sprite and peach

2:22 am

yvw

2:22 am

have you ever heard anyone use that word?

2:23 am

No. I wonder if it has ever been used. LOL

2:23 am

only in enable

2:23 am

yes, most likely

2:25 am

at some point, the compiler threw in some random made up words, because he was certain nobody would ever use his dictionary in a consistent way. Then Babble came and ever since, the compiler lives in fear.

2:26 am

good one sprite

2:27 am

;)

2:36 am

Flosey, are you on fb?

2:36 am

yes but only used when contacted - daughter put me in there

2:37 am

have heard from many of her old school chums

2:37 am

also keep track of a cousin's daughter who was at school with my kids, her mom (my cousin) has als...

2:39 am

Ah, I want you to hear my friend doing the song. She sent me a copy of her singing both parts

2:39 am

I'd love to hear it m9

2:40 am

alsheimers is what I was trying to remember

2:40 am

getting late

2:41 am

don't worry, your meaning was clear

2:41 am

21 words to go, should get to bed

2:41 am

LOL.

2:41 am

thanks sprite - she and I were very good friends

2:41 am

they lived up the street

2:42 am

must be tough to see someone you love with Alzheimer

2:42 am

I haven't seen her since moving west

2:42 am

That would be hard.

2:43 am

she does know her hubby, but not the kids

2:43 am

was thinking of her daughter... being in contact with you must help her a lot

2:44 am

perhaps

2:44 am

she is such a great young lady, she is a great help for her Dad, in caring for mom

2:45 am

that is wonderful

2:50 am

I'd love to see her but it would be very awkward (locationwise) she is up in the Muskoka district living on a small lake

2:50 am

Ontario

2:50 am

perhaps some day you could meet in the middle?

2:52 am

I don't drive in Ontario anymore, would involve getting someone to take me, etc.

2:53 am

very awkward indeed. Well, yay for fb then :)

2:54 am

yes, and dear sweet niece (I think of he ras niece, she calls me Aunt) who keeps me in touch

2:54 am

that is worth so much

2:54 am

it is, indeed

2:59 am

20 to go, must get to bed

2:59 am

sleep well, flosey

3:00 am

m9, you still here? did you download that song?

3:00 am

hellooo, home again after seeing surgeon.

3:01 am

yessssss rose! And, what did he say?

3:01 am

how did it go, rose?

3:01 am

:( have torn my medial ligament. have to wear a brace for 4 weefs.

3:01 am

*weeks*

3:02 am

oh jeezzzz! That stinks. But no new operation? That would be good.

3:02 am

still seated duties. he wouldn't comment if after 4 weeks it was still sore.

3:03 am

{{{{{{{{rose}}}}}}}}

3:03 am

brace allows full range of movement, just stops the knee from clunking sideways.

3:03 am

AND i even have to wear it in BED!! for goodness sake. talk about a turn-off.

3:04 am

oh my, that stinks badly. Time for kinky sex, rose!

3:04 am

M9, yes, I have downloaded songs - will listen to them tomorrow, would wake hubby

3:04 am

*naughty giggle*

3:04 am

I've worn one, rose, it CAN be done.

3:05 am

oh, goodness, peach. now you're doing my head in. lol

3:05 am

ah, there you go rose, good luck

3:06 am

*refers rose to peach for advice on the kinky sex*

3:06 am

quite a giggle

3:07 am

but, but, but

3:07 am

that would be butt, butt, butt. Having a brace is no reason to let your spelling slip.

3:07 am

anyway, goodnight all, and do take care, rose

3:08 am

night flosey, sleep well :)

3:08 am

ty poof

3:08 am

Sweet dreams, flosey.

3:08 am

hmpfff ok then.

3:08 am

night dear flosey, hope you rest well

3:08 am

Rose, you just must watch that hinge.

3:11 am

yeah... getting stuck in it must be even worse than with a zipper

3:13 am

mind pictures are killing me....have either of you thought that it won't be ME getting caught in it.....just think about who will be doing most of the moving....

3:13 am

Rose, the thing is to make HIM watch out for the hinge. Savy?

3:13 am

Loving this conversation :)

3:13 am

LOLOL, peach, great minds

3:13 am

*grins* Listen to peach. She knows.

3:18 am

6:51 am

Third column O?

6:51 am

Une, I was just thinking of the area. Im glad he found a good home.

6:52 am

9:47 am

9:50 am

9:53 am

9:53 am

cute, hurshy :-)

9:56 am

9:57 am

ed4/6, babblet.

9:57 am

9:57 am

or, sue knows what it really is.

9:58 am

ty-i usually see that one

10:00 am

do we know if there are any sy words?

10:00 am

I just checked lickety, apparently there are two

10:01 am

different spellings of the si5/6

10:02 am

ty

10:02 am

Huh.

10:03 am

that still leaves 5 more top s's... sigh

10:03 am

funny how s's can be

10:05 am

now am wondering about A compounds

10:07 am

10:07 am

10:07 am

10:08 am

oh, well have one like that, we all like sheep have gone as6

10:08 am

not what we breathe

10:08 am

and there are plans a*

10:09 am

ah thanks

10:11 am

ha, got an 8 all by myself

10:11 am

chilly chilly, why must it always be so chilly in my office

10:11 am

so did I sue, this morning. I was pretty proud of myself :)

10:11 am

the whole point of summer is that it is warm

10:11 am

i hate over-AC.

10:13 am

me too, hurshy!

10:13 am

sometimes they turn off the heat in our buildings too soon, then we get a cold snap, and we really freeze

10:13 am

i mean i love AC, don't get me wrong. i don't wanna not have it. i just don't want to freeze either.

10:14 am

and it's one thing to freeze in the winter when you think oh well at least we're saving energy but in the summer when you know it is WASTING energy!

10:15 am

I wear a sweater more often in the summer than I do in winter, businesses just go nuts with the AC here

10:17 am

Morning, all. It's kind of difficult to get a place too cold here when it's 110 degrees...no one can afford to get a place that cold!

10:18 am

Hey, does anyone know what's going on with crossy? He wasn't on at all yesterday that I could see and he's not here this morning....mama Mimi is getting concerned.

10:19 am

hi mimi, I haven't seen him for a day or two myself but I haven't been on that much

10:20 am

I think I'll em him later if I still don't see him here. Must keep track of our crossy!

10:20 am

And finally a good-sized grid...I'm happy!

10:27 am

sa

10:28 am

Hi from the Bay Area

10:32 am

ya6?

10:33 am

Which bay, bichon? Are you traveling again?

10:36 am

THE Bay ; )

10:36 am

San Francisco

10:37 am

like you icon pic kje

10:37 am

I am so envious. SF is one of my favorite places. I miss CA every day of my life.

10:38 am

trying to change mine to a baby deer through my window.

10:39 am

never been to SF.

10:40 am

ty

10:40 am

come back, mimi!

10:40 am

We're going to SF in September. Daughter is expecting our first grandchild

10:41 am

I must say, I do love living in northern CA, not sure I'd feel the same about southern though

10:42 am

fw

10:42 am

SF is simply a magical place to me. Once we took the Golden Gate bridge to Marin and drove to Stinson at dusk and saw a bobcat bound across the road. So many wonderful places in northern CA. No, southern is not the same, though I lived in the LA area for 7 years.

10:42 am

yay mix!

10:43 am

I am seriously looking into coming back early next year, kje. Already looking for something I can afford...which isn't much, unfortunately. I've really had it with Phoenix. These are NOT my people!

10:43 am

We may go to stinson beach to watch the moon on the 23rd, or maybe muir beach as less crowded

10:43 am

If I had the funds, I'd beg to join you, kje!

10:43 am

I commiserate, mimi... that is how I felt when I lived in Dallas... fish out of water

10:44 am

We lived in the DFW area for a while too...didn't care for it

10:45 am

The first time I came to CA in the early 70's I just knew I had found my people and the place I was meant to be.

10:45 am

affordability is the kicker, mimi

10:45 am

when were you there, tabby?

10:45 am

Phoenix is a desert both geographically and politically. VERY hard to have my politics and live here in right-wing hell.

10:46 am

In the late 70's and early 80's

10:47 am

Husband worked in Dallas, but we always lived out of town, first south of FW in Burleson and later north of Dallas in McKinney and later Sherman

10:47 am

My godson had a full scholarship to Berkeley and is now in D.C. working on his doctorate. When he's done, he and his wife are moving back to Berkeley and his mother (my best friend of 44 years) and I are planning to move there as well. Between the two of us we may be able to afford something.

10:48 am

We'd love to move to the SF area to be closer to our grandson but doubt we could ever afford it

10:48 am

Our politics would fit in better there too

10:48 am

kje, what would be some good areas to look into for something not so outrageously expensive? I was thinking Mendocino, Modesto, Napa...anywhere smaller but close enough to SF to drive in and, of course, to often visit my FAVORITE place....Carmel.

10:48 am

wow, those are long commutes, tabby!

10:49 am

Well, his office was first on the very southern edge of Dallas, so he was driving across country south of town. I worked in FW then.

10:50 am

Later his office moved to the northern edge of town, so we moved to McKinney, then Sherman

10:50 am

I'm no expert on the area, mimi... but those sound decent, or anywhere south on the peninsula is usually cheaper, east bay but then you get into the heat... or, do the studio rental in SF and be close to it all ; )

10:50 am

Yep, long commutes...about 60 miles or so every day

10:51 am

Don't want to get anywhere near Oakland, for sure. I have a lot of homework to do looking. But it will be a labor of love!

10:51 am

mimi - with a roommate, you can probe get a decent deal in many places... 2 def live cheaper than 1 here, by a long shot

10:51 am

prob, not probe (still slang : )

10:52 am

I actually have a large picture of the Golden Gate lit up at night on my dining room wall with a lamp that shines on it and makes the lights on the bridge really look like they're shining.

10:52 am

outer sunset down by ocean beach has some inexpensive places, as does the outer richmond... areas that are foggy in summer ; )

10:53 am

What price ranges for outer Richmond? Daughter and son in law used to live in inner Richmond.

10:53 am

Her mother is 84 and may outlive us all, so that would make it three and extra money....if my sanity could handle living with her again. Tried it once for a few months and left practically screaming.

10:53 am

and then, depending on your age, you may qualify for some of the senior deals with stricter rent control in some apts for older adults

10:54 am

That sounds promising since we are both retired now

10:55 am

under $2K, for a 2BR, which is significantly cheaper than other parts of the city

10:55 am

that is for outer richmond

10:55 am

Gotta run...thanks for the info

10:55 am

The only advantage to being older! I'm 62 so probably would qualify. My friend is 64.

10:56 am

if you are willing to live up in napa, sonoma, etc, you can bring the rents way down, mimi... I saw some for 1200-1500 small houses up north, 2 BR, etc when I first started looking out here

10:56 am

Wow---that's still really high. I have a one-bedroom apt. that's over 720 sq. ft. with a large balcony overlooking a nice courtyard and a full-size washer and dryer for $520 a month....will never beat that.

10:57 am

nope, you will be nowhere near that out here. phoenix is much much cheaper

10:58 am

I was kind of thinking about Napa area. I'd really like a small house so I can have flower and veg gardens again. The advantage I have is that I can liver anywhere since I don't have to worry about commuting to work.

10:58 am

if you move, you'll have to live smaller ; )

10:58 am

the city is your home, not the house ; )

11:00 am

My other options are staying here and moving up into the mountains, Colorado, northern Idaho...keeping my mind open. But I definitely left my heart in SF!

11:01 am

gotta run.. hagd all

11:02 am

Thanks for the info, kje! You have a good one, too.

11:13 am

Bichon, are you still here?

12:29 pm

1:17 pm

1:17 pm

1:17 pm

I am a gardener, so st7 are not a new concept :)

1:18 pm

My definition of weird and normal are based on have I seen the word before.

1:18 pm

ok, i got the st - i don't know the word, but knowing it was a plural helped. i do find it a bit weird.

1:18 pm

it is something to do with gardening, eh?

1:18 pm

I am a gardener too and I've never seen the st word before.

1:19 pm

it is, they are the way strawberries spread, for example

1:19 pm

*I'm intrigued

1:19 pm

are they like, a human imposed device on which the strawberries spread?

1:20 pm

No, it's a botany term

1:20 pm

1:29 pm

right molly

1:29 pm

Does anyone know what's going on with crossy? Hasn't been here for a couple of days. I sent him an em earlier this morning but no reply yet. Mama Mimi is getting concerned.

1:30 pm

i have told my husband if anything happens to me one of the things he has to do is notify babble chat...

1:30 pm

considering the trial in Fla. **** is a more sinister word to me. . .

1:30 pm

did you check FB Mimi?

1:30 pm

haha my boy knows to do that too hursh

1:31 pm

i didn't realize he was MIA, thought i was just missing him....

1:31 pm

No, I didn't, hego. Will look at that next.

1:31 pm

I must make sure to let someone know to do that for me as well....just in case I'm ever MIA and someone notices.

1:32 pm

just in case someone notices mimi??? like there is any doubt we would miss you right away!

1:32 pm

Bless you, Kate.

1:33 pm

{{{{{(((((MIMI)))}}}

1:34 pm

looking back in the archive he was hear yesterday morning . . .

1:34 pm

Guess I missed him then. Did he say anything about being away for awhile?

1:35 pm

Then we've just been missing him.

1:35 pm

no you came into the chog in the afternoon so you missed him

1:35 pm

bbl

1:36 pm

It's strangely comforting knowing someone will miss us, isn't it?

1:36 pm

he has not been by today

1:36 pm

maybe he's just running around doing errands like doctor's appointments, groceries etc... must keep stocked up on bacon ya know ;) he may not realize this is a bigger grid...

1:37 pm

it is a comfort mimi. wonder who would miss me if i was gone...

1:37 pm

Hopefully, he'll reply to my em sometime today. We have so few men here in the chog that crossy and ruru are like our mascots!

1:37 pm

*puts on deerstalker hat* he didn't finish the grid yesterday...

1:37 pm

don't forget zooz and seain!

1:38 pm

Of course!

1:38 pm

1:39 pm

bye mimi, take care. see you friday probably ;)

1:39 pm

1:39 pm

{(Kate)}

1:40 pm

I just think i look chic in a deerstalker hat

1:40 pm

by the way, i noticed a while ago that i am no longer profiled as an alien in greeen, but have been promoted/demoted to "human" in black....

1:40 pm

*gasp* you should protest to Dr God

1:40 pm

chuckles at jmc, not that boring... and definitely fetching in tha deerstalker hat...

1:41 pm

no time for puzzle today... my daughter is here from Seattle. Best to all -

1:41 pm

i will save my protests for something a little meatier... bye dobie :)

1:41 pm

it goes so well with my world saving cape i think. . . *models both*

1:41 pm

1:42 pm

Sometimes people are not here for a while because they are actually living life beyond the computer. : O

1:42 pm

no polyester . . .it flows better when i fly. . .

1:43 pm

1:44 pm

1:44 pm

and zooz

1:44 pm

JMC - super lawyer teaars through mountains of red tape in a single mighty swipe....

1:45 pm

I think Zoom was mentioned.

1:45 pm

. . . never once does her deerstalker hat with the extra strong powers of deduction leave her brow. . .

1:46 pm

so he was. . .

1:46 pm

speaking of... i was gone a long time, what ever happened to JC from the uk? i am on his messenger thingy, but never in fb or email to see it

1:46 pm

i suspect the outing of the NB fraud drove him away. . .

1:46 pm

Oh that is a long, unfortunate story.

1:47 pm

Kate you have opened a can of worms there !

1:47 pm

oooops!sorry, NB?

1:47 pm

but they are all phantom worms. . . haha

1:47 pm

lol, Jmc :-)

1:48 pm

NB was a figment of someones imagination that we pretty much all got caught up in. . .

1:48 pm

Let's just say that it's a good bet that the JC who posted here was not really Julian Clary.

1:48 pm

Hi folks from the Bay Area. Pretty nice out here

1:48 pm

i do remember a todo over adopting rescue dogs vs buying from a breeder...

1:48 pm

hi bichon

1:49 pm

hi zooz and bichon :) please forget i said anything... not in the mood for worms real or phantom today ;)

1:49 pm

works for me trader. . .

1:50 pm

Me too.

1:50 pm

1:54 pm

Not being in the mood for worms is fine, but it's important to remember that not everyone who posts here is who they say they are.

1:54 pm

that would be my guess zooz

1:55 pm

(don't tell anyone but my real name isn't jmcnrick)

1:55 pm

lol

1:55 pm

and zooz wins the kewpie doll! congrats :) why on earth would anyone bother to hide hwo thewy are here?

1:55 pm

their secrets are even more boring than mine are!

1:56 pm

Because they like pretending to be someone else. It's a disorder.

1:57 pm

JMC definitely gets the Sham Award for hiring someone to drive around the country meeting other Babble players. Bravo!

1:57 pm

5:29 pm

Oh darn lilliann, hope all goes better. No need to stay for clues, If I need, Molly is usually lurking...go take a nap...And NOW I understand your comment!

5:31 pm

Hi penquis!!

5:32 pm

aye, he'll be ok once the warfrin(sp?) kicks in. he went in with pains up his neck into his head but as it happens that's just a spasm, but they found his pulse was beating irregulary and that if he hadn't have gone in yesterday he would have more than likely had a heart attack, but he's not been bothered about that today but the pain in his neck!

5:34 pm

Scary....or a stroke either...

5:34 pm

oh, and the fact that he has more tablets to take and he has to lose weight, which we;ve all been telling him lately but he won't listen to us, so hopefully he will to the doctors.they'll keep him in until his heart beat goes back to normal

5:37 pm

i only knew that he'd gone into hospital in the early hours as he had rang my next door neighbour instead of his other son.he'll be ok if he remembers to take his tablets and have the regular blood tests.the bairn will definitely remind him. she was his personal nurse when we went to see him earlier:)

5:37 pm

right i'm off, nice to see you jill and pen, bye and tc:)

5:38 pm

How old, and does he live alone?
