Hi Sprite
hiya Liz and pug and rose :) *hugs*
hugs back!
Rose hows your MIL
hey sprite
hiya rosey :)
pugs, she is still in hospital, on intravenous antibiotics.
Sorry to read that Rose :(
But the best place, no doubt.
must of been worse then you thought then,wasent it
liz, somtime i could smack her so hard. apparently her leg had been swollen and hot for 2 days before she told me. grrrr
*ties fingers*
did she hit it somehow Rose
at least they can keep a constant watch on her there. It sounds like she needs more intensive care than even you can give her.
That's old age for you!!!! "I didn't want to be a bother!!!!"
ruru! :)
once i saw her leg, i had around at the hospital so fast she got giddy.
yeah, and being much more of a bother for trying not to be
Ru did you watch the redskins last night? I wanted too but it wasent on tv here :(
Hello all -- no Lickety? A biggie? Hmmm...
no.. i had to work
Hi Jilli :)
hiya jilli, no Lickety, but not a biggie. Just 120.
did you hear the outturn of it
And a list in Dee's profile.
Hi Jilli
I love it when people have to work ;)
Me too ;)
exactly sprite, by the time she got to the hospital her leg was much worse, and she now has a longer stay. and there she sits, bitching because she's in hospital,. if she had told me 2 days previously she would be home now.
no.. but I heardthe eagles were cooking
Right, 120 -- I was looking at last night's Lickety, duh. It's late, and I'm back from bridge.
which you carefully told her, I think...
I hope you don't smack me when I'm hot and swollen granny
ah thanks Ru
wb jilli. How did the game go?
lol!!!!
only with a cold spoon, ruru
don't get your hopes up, ruru
:D
I need a to 7 and a n seven and a t 4
we had fun -- thought we had done better than we did, but it was pretty close and several of the usual suspects didn't win either.
to7, knight's competition
hi ruru -- thought you had said you were going to bed
I'm so close to finishing jilli
He must've waited to see you, Jilli :)
ne7, ne*, prefix meaning new + number after nine + sometines vowel
fun is even more important than winning!
gogogo ru!
Go Ruru!!
just saying, Satan is in a lot of grids of late...
ruru, ty4 x 4.
maybe the grid just can't spell satin!
yeh - sauron's in this one too. Could be a sign. Although apparently he's not a word. Someone should tell Frodo.
those were the three thank you granny
hiya Dachef :)
;) glad to help, ruru
sprite, even Shakespeare said so -- "Things won are done, joy's soul lies in the doing."
Moria is a phantom, even
now I can go to bed..
WTG ru :)
Hi Dachef
unswollen
wow, me and Shakespeare, grin. We go wayyyyy back.
night again Ruru
did we deflate you, ruru?
WTG RURU!!! hope you have a sweet sleep, mate
lolol, ruru, wonders of a cold spoon, huh?
well... sprite.. I was limping along in this grid :D
*giggles* Sleep well, and I hope you have lots of naughty dreams.
*groan* sprite don't encourage him....
unswollen? They can fix that these days, you know.
you'd have to read back dachef
Dachef, viagra in Babblers can cause a stiff upperlip, you know
I was just teasing granny
lol sprite!
*explodes into hysterical laughter* major or minor, sprite
most babblers know their di-erections
minor, just minor ;)
can be nice to have something pointing up when all the rest is going south
unless it's a two pronged attack sprite :D
lol! And ouch!
How many words today please
SPRITE!!!! naughty girl, go and sit on the naughty step.
hi gran, 120
Thanks
120 gran
121 gran
(just to drive gran crazy)
I would, rose, but ruru is already sitting there... pointing up.
you could take the third step up sprite :D
right behind you all the way, ruru
I need to go and have a lie down.....
ok.. i'm off .. have fun everyone
*hands sprite ice-pack* i'm sure you know where to put this, dear
hands off, dachef...lol
*puts the icepack in place and watches ruru yell and run off*
hehe
poor Dachef. Did we tire you out?
need a cold shower now.
Is that ice pack for Sprite or Ruru?
LOL
just had to put it in place, pug
LOL
what? everyone got their hands busy and cant talk now
oooooo pug! :D
sprite, did you get my last mail I sent you?
new word for the babble dictionary: hormony - when all the ho7s in your body are working together
not sure which one is the last, lol pug. Did I reply? If so, I have seen it.
ty sprite
I gave you the titles
yvw jilli
pug, yes, that email I have received and I have replied to it.
okay thanks
hi all
hi joso :) *hug*
hi joso==youre late--everything okay
hi joso -- missed bidding 3 slams tonight :-(
all is fine, working without likety slows me down
me too, joso -- makes it impossible when half asleep anyway
ahh, so sorry jilly
but the hands were fun so it's ok
too nervous to make the bid, or didn't reasize the slams until you played the hand
Dee put up a list on her site, if that helps
oh that reminds me, I still need to remove the stat list from my profile from a couple of days ago.
Sprite should I try getting that first book before starting on the ones I got?
good to know, pug, but I'm too sleepy for more so goodnight all...*poof
nah, you can start on the second book and not worry about a thing. It is just that there is a story behind the book stories and it is fun to read that in order. But each book stands alone.
night Jilli
night jilli, sleep well :)
g'nite jilly
night jilli. sweet dreams dear
thanks so much Sprite for all the imfo
and cooeee joso....is it safe to come out from under the table yet?
my pleasure, pug, please don't hesitate to ask if anything is unclear. I will send you the short stories by email.
allway good to have a nice slush pile
mmmmmmmmmm......that's all you type when your fingers are tied.
okay--while in town yesterday I seen she has a new book on the shelf (27.$)
or aaaaaaa
very safe rose, the cost of a flight from toronto to sidney is rediculous, you are safe.
did you work today Rose
she is fun to read. Just start with what you have and see if it is to your liking :)
new development: the boy does not even say good morning or hello anymore. We have been reduced to providing him with a hotel. Am SO glad we are having that meeting tomorrow.
I don't think roaming around oz asking for grannyrose would get me far in any case
thats my plans---I got a sister that loves to read too so I can pass them on when Iam done
oh wonderful, so much more fun when shared.
couldn't you swim it, joso? * flutters eye-lashes, innocently*
innocently... hm yes, sure rose
I dont remember the writer but she has every book from the one that wrote flowers in the attic
swimming over the rockies has always been a tough haul
yes, pugs, i worked. and yes, mom, i sat down for most of the time.
ROFLOL!!
Virginia Andrews?
very good, rose! And how are you feeling?
are you dressing Sprite as mom?
<--- already dressed
I think so Sprite
no you, little pugs...i love the way you, sprite ....heck all of you, care about my well-being...so much more than my bio mum.
i followed that series for a while, was very good at first, but after a 1/2 dozen or so the wole thing started to streach credulity
we luv you to pieces, rose. never doubt it.
I lost interest in them too,Joso
thanx, hun
same as with the Robert Jordan series
Yes we do care Rose, what would babble be with out you
The wheel of time series
what can I say, rose... you are easy to luv :D
diana gabaldan series....great read. just found one i haven't read yet.
Never read either Sprite
diana gabaldon is awesome
oh pug, I just read some of the books of the travelling matchmaker. Fun reading!
same thing happened to me with King, they all started to become very simmilar after a dozen or so. though he does have a real knack for getting you to identify with someone before he offs them
I got a tickle out of her stories
indeed, joso. He knows his craft. But it gets to be a bit mechanic.
me too, pug. Thanks for telling me about them.
strange, i have found myself drawn to the classics lately. i find today's authors have too much soft-porn in their books...heaven knows, that is something i do not need. working my way through morris west, daphne du maurier at the moment.
I hate when they take a great story and then make a crappy movie out of it
ah, you wouldn't like the books I just listed for puglet then, rose, lolol.
oh I like daphne du maurier.
indeed, pug :(
Rose try the traveling matchmaker its clean and funny
* giggle * now pugs is reading my mind. i just told don to look for them for me.
even when a movie is well done the book normally has so much more
true Joso cause they cant act out the thoughts in the mind
joso, I have this cartoon here... that says: How was the movie? And then you see someone in a cinema watching the screen where all the pages of the book are projected. And then he says: "It was exactly like the book."
I wish I could remember the name of the books of the two spinister sisters that took in wayward girls to teach proper manners to
:)
the 6 graces, I think, puglet, also by M.C. Beaton.
no, the 6 sisters.
Sprite I can tell you--I think there were 4 in the series--but they are filled with humor too
The only time a movie can add to a book is if it is very visual, like with lord of the rings, a war movie, or sf stuff
Minerva; Deirdre and Desire
these girls werent related that they took in
each book was about one certain girl
Daphne, Diana the Huntress and Frederica in Fashion
good morning
hi ruby
morning Ruby hugs
{{ruby}}
sorry, no, it is also by M.C. Beaton, the School of Manners, pug
I'm waiting for the bank to call back. DH has messed up the checking accunt now, one more thing fr me to have to take over
hiya ruby
AAARGHHH
I only have book 4, Finessing Clarissa
sprite, have you ever read any of piers anthony books?
aw poor ruby
not sure, let me check, rose
Joso, where's your gun?
for goodness sakes, ruby. more {[hugs}} on the way.
given up on the idea ruby, you rabble rouser
no, never, rose. Good reads?
sprite, the ones about the fictional realm of xanth
they are hilarious, and full of puns.
ruru could have written those
oh sounds just like my thing. Thanks rose, am gonna try and find them
bannle rouser
if you can find them, i guarantee i will hear your guffaws from he4.
hehehe :D
joso, you have read them?
oh, yes I can find them, rose. Lots of them on usenet.
anthony is good, But I think terry pratchett is even better
oh, must look into those then.
I've read some rose, but not a fan of puns in general
are all of terry's good?
Terry pratchett is fun.
but yes, I love puns. As long as they are good ones.
aha, 2 recommendations ....then it becomes a must read.
pratchett and the 'it shouldn't happen to a vet' series are the only ones that make me laugh out loud regularly. oh and gran's chat too
gee, thanx...i think....
lol... well-tempered clavicle... Knot Gneiss... :D
i absolutely love anything of gerald durrell's...and james herriot. both of them have me in stitches.
oh james herriott, i LOVE THOSE BOOKS.
sorry, capslock on. Don't know the other guy.
any of his disc world series rose, which is 90% of his work.
got to try this gerald durrell's guy, new to me
gerald durrell, zoologist and author. spent his childhood on a greek island. start with ' my family and other animals'
you won't stop there, i promise. he was/is also an animal conservationist, and at one time had his own zoo.
ok, for pratchett mort or guards, guards are favorites of mine
he has a brother, lawrence, much more sober.
thanx joso...will definitely check him out
ahhh, just googled gerald, he died in 1995.
My childhood favorite was Old Yeller, I bet I read that a 100 times-lol
for current fantasy the dresden series (much better than the tv series) and the iron druid series are very good.
yeah, pugs....was one of my fve's also
truly excellent, that was a good movie adaptation too
found it, rose, will read it
mind you, i was an avid reader...no christmas stocking was ever complete without a new book in it...lol
sprite, will look forward to your impressions.
me too Rose! Ive always been a reader
still an avid reader
one of the things i most look for in the op shops every fortnight...cruising the book shelves. such a treasure trove!!
going through the 3 deighton trilogies at the moment
looking back in chog....maybe i should amend that....still am an avid reader...lol
same here, rose and joso. Books are the best things in the world.
I love stories of pioneers and back in the times when new territories were being develope
My big thing was sf, new ideas, new worlds, new societies. but hard to find anything fresh now. good historical novels, fantasy, spy, almost anything well written.
theres nothing like a good writer that makes you feel you are right in there with the people
hate it when a good author gets too famous, nobody is able to edit them properly then and so many become overly verbose, like clancy and king
pugs, if you are interested...eleanor dark...she wrote a trilogy about the very beginnings of australia, from when governor phillip first came.
Joso you might like The Host by stephinie Meyer(the one who wrote the twilight series)
thanks Rose will check into thsoe
joso, absolutely...which is why today's authors, i think, feel they have to branch out into the soft-porn.
joso: Jacqueline Carey, the Kushiel series.
this is gold, building a recommended author list.
I know-lol I got several from off of here
tnx pug, sprite, rose
yvw
Kushiel's Dart is the first one. Well written, different, fascinating.
got 4 so far, not often people recomend stuff i haven't already read.
what's it about sprite, and the host pug
The Host is about aliens taking over
nm sprite, googled it, tnx pug, will look it up
joso, in the world of Kushiel it is about the Night Houses, places dedicated to giving pleasure. Each follows the dictates of their chosen God. For the house of Kushiel, it is pain. It is the story of a girl born to be Kushiel's servant.
ok, too late, lolol
aliens taking over... now you tell me. So that is what happened to tim. the Pod people!
that sounds good Sprite
who knows? lol
which reminds me...tomorrow is D day, right , sprite?
right, rose. End of the afternoon. Can't wait... don't want to go...
Rose, are you still feeling down?
today I have a session with my therapist... just a bit of care for my own turmoil... it is a bit muchish atm
Sprite is Tim going too
you must be curious about what is driving tim sprite, this is the best chance to find out what is going on
last time you went to your therapist you got a huge compliment, why be nervious?
I agree, joso. And yes pug, he is coming too.
riding in the same car too?
well it is not an easy thing, joso, bringing one's family troubles to strangers and discussing them there...
not sure yet, pug. Will see how it goes today. If we will pick him up from school and bring him back after... I think that would be best.
yea, I can see that
so that is why I am nervous. But also very glad we are getting help.
not likely to get an instant fix, but I hope it goes well and you make progress
sweetheart, just relax. i told you you have both been great parents. it's tim who has to come to grips with his ho7's, and it will be a new learning curve for him. i hope it goes well. dear.
what I am hoping for is they can get through to him and get him to commit to certain rules. If he can behave at home, things will be a little easier. And if he can admit he was very much in the wrong, things might even become bearable.
thanks rose. *hug*
tnx for the ho7 rose, lol
my heart aches for tim...it is so hard to become an adult...and there he is, sitting on the cusp...not sure what he is feeling...
hey, hold it, your sympathies should lie with me! LOL
I dont think he knows why he is acting as he is
get him a few estrogen tabs
I feel for you too Sprite
please could someone clue the 8s for me
how about a lobotomy :)
thanks pug. It is tough. But you are all correct, it is hardest for Tim.
hiya Jjenny, sorry, don't have them yet
lol...remember i brought up 3 boys through puberty, on my own....and yes my, darling, my sympathies ARE with you...because you have to watch your child struggle through this in order to become an adult.
sa8/45 a wine
jenny, re8, someone who brings library books back.
and goodnight everyone
thanks flosey
yoiks!!! there's a flosey in our midst!!

I hope you will sleep in quickly and sleep well
thanks rose

hello friends
Hi Tri
darn, has joso left
Hi Triffles *huggles* How are you doing, my dear?
he didnt say any farewell
not doing much sleeping, but okay enough otherwise. Need a new job, NOW
I don't think so, flosey, he didn't say. Maybe busy.
*orders a new fun wellpaying job for Trif and throws in a couple of restful nights*
ta sprite! I can always count on you. How are things with you?
how did the houseguest trouble end?
lots of shit happening, to put it bluntly. But hanging in there.
oh, that. he moved on. sorry to hear you are having challenging times. Do NOT like
glad he moved on, well done. Yeah, we could do with a bit less challenging times and a bit more fun times, couldn't we Trif
YES
things have gone south at my current job more than I ever could have imagined. Im so so so disappointed
am so sorry to hear that. I can remember you being so happy with it. What happened?
Iam so sorry Tri--hugs and hope something falls into your hands very soon
thanks for your wise counsel re house guest. we are still friends, good ones, and I still have my beloved, so all is well
you did a great job there then, Trif. A balancing act that worked out well :)
thanks puglet. I'm certainly not the only person in the world with a bummer job, so I am just going to wipe the dust off my hands and get busy as all heck finding a hew one
I couldnt have done it without my chog council of elders, sprite love
*grins* Babble chog rocks BIG time. And we all contribute.
glad that worked out for you trif

Rose you never answer my Q before, is all okay? Are you kind of down again
or if you dont want to answer thats okay too
*smiling at you* pugs all is fine. a bit pre-occupied as appointment in 2 days with occupational physician re both ankle and knee. how a physician can make a surgical opinion is beyond my understanding.
no, that does not sound right--please fill us in on the news--hopefully it will be good
will do, pugs...just a bit antsy he4...
I think I will get off and get somethings done before the heat overcomes us. Hugs to my friends--and good will---and Iam gone!

I do web site design so I have a stash of them.
Great, keep them coming
hello everybody. I think it's solidly fall here, our lovely summer appears fini!
Fourth column R greay. Thanks, Nono.
Hi Ruby, did you day get any better?
Well it's going to be high summer weather here through Thurs. That means hot and humid.
We had these words the other day.
Ruby, why is your day bad. Mr. Grumpy?
Dr God didn't shake the plasstic box enough.
Yes, thanks, had a bit of a melt-down this AM but actually expressed anger for once, so I feel better
Expressing feeling good for you
I hate meltdowns
We had AN UNEXPECTED RAINSTOR LAST NIGHT AND IT DROPPED THE TEMPERATURE A LOT
good for you Ruby, you have to let it out occasionally
NOW IT'S BARELY 60
whoops, bad pinkie
I agree with Bich. Expressing feelings is good. Bottling them up, not so good.
hi all. help with the 8's pls. I have one 7: mo7/40
It's very rare for me (not the pinkie, the expression)
Depends if expressing feelings is throwing crockpots at your husband's head.
And what's wrong with that?
On the other hand whispering "I'm a bit sad" may not be effective.
no, I'm never destructive or physical, just grew up in a very calm and happy housenold, never saw my parents fight
You could break a good crockpot, that's what's wrong with it.
Maybe they fought when you weren't around
re8/45 one who comes back
It's not just that Ruby. Most of us were raised to suppress our negative emotions. Therefore, they never get dealt with.

very true, Moll. I have gotten better at expressing my anger.
That's certainly true, Molly, but letting them out is pretty new for me, a little late
It's never too late to change
Ruby needs a Dammit Doll. : D
it is kind of late for me too, ruby but as bichon says, it is never too late to change. cause the other people never do
stats for the e in the center column pls
What's that? I can probaby guess.....
I want one too

I don't think so Bea. I have that word

It's a stuffed doll that comes with this poem: When you want to throw the phone or kick the desk and shout, here's a little dammit doll you cannot do without. Just grasp it firmly by the legs and find a place to slam it, and as you whack it's stuffing out yell DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT!!!!
I'm stuck on the u

That might work Bea, there are 4 eys
that's excellent, molly!
no, it's eu4/5
That is very cute, Molly!
hello lynxx
now why didn't one of us come up with that idea?
The continental monetary unit is from another e
It would probably scare the dogs to see me do that
ur6.21 & ut4.5
u 5/12 was a clue in the NYT Cross Word today. Organs men don't have
A friend made one for me, but you can order them on line. They have long legs, so you can grab hold and whack away.
How many words possible, today? Anyone?
I got the eu4/5 from the center E
Then don't let the dogs see you Ruby. Easily done.
120 words

Thanks, lynxxx!
Good morning!

hi Car
I feel much better, even smiling now, thinking of that doll. I could go and whack some weeds. That would be constructive
mornin' everyone, too numerous to name
hi Bichon
{{numerous friends}}
That reminds me of a "Twilight Zone" episode with Telly Savalas and a doll like Chatty Cathy
Thanks to you, too, Nono!

It's quite commonly in the puzzle

hiya, Lynxxx
One thing to remember when you read or hear someone insisting that an English word must have a certain meaning because of its Latin or Greek roots is that these insisters apply their etymologies very selectively. You will find few of them who object to December being used for the twelfth month, when its Latin root means "ten," or to manure being used as a noun meaning "to work (land) by hand." (Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of English Usage, 1995)
Interesting, o-o.
verrry interesting
goodnight everyone
Sleep well, lynxxx.
sweet sleeps, Lynxxx
sweet dreams, lynxxxx
The early Roman calendar only had ten months, which is why December was chosen as the name for the last one.
that is also verrry interesting
Annie's got her Arte Johnson on today : D
you got it! That's who I was thinking of.
Laugh-In was such a great show.
so many very talented people
And I'm back!
welcome back. How is Dylan?
Car, in reference to your Breaking Bad comment the other day HOLY CRAP : O
Grumpy morning boy but otherwise fine!
I know Molly!!!!!!
I'm a little sad that in three more episodes, this story is over.
And what I was referring to regarding production was there was no background music or additional sound for quite a long time...the anticipation was at full height!
I know, but it is time.
It was Michelle MacLaren's last time up as director, and she did an amazing job.
Just cut off about 1000 yellow weed/flowers. Panting
((ruby))
Well done, Ruby!
*Hands Ruby a cold vodka tonic with lime*
Breaking Bad has been on here, but the time is bad. Should I try to watch it?
yellow doesn't go with my garden, or I'd leave them
It is dark and violent but also extremely well written and acted.
Whoa, Ruby.
I've read terrific reviews. Maybe I'll have another chance.
I've read terrific reviews. Maybe I'll have another chance.
I'm still waiting for season 3 of Luther (I wish)
I need the second E from the center E. Can't tell you which one Ido have as it is so confusiing!
Just started House of Cards, we get things abut a year late, and I love it

tadone!! finito!! fun yet challenging grid. those 7's and 8's had be all over the place.
It was EN 5/12 that I was missing.
Congrats Dawg!!!!
Yay for the Periwinkle Maneuver. It's magic!
anyone have a list?
I'm a runner up to Peri and proud of it
Breaking Bad is probably the best "fall from grace" story ever told. The writing is top shelf.
ruby-if you can, when you're done with House of Cards, see the original BBC series...It was two trilogies
Anita, it's in Molly's profile
Amazing....
Now go enjoy the day, Dawg.
*Hands out PERI WANNABE t-shirts*
ok thanx bich and molly too! life saver
How about the R in the Fourth column? I only have 1 from there.
The one I have is re 5/14
ru6 and 7 are the other two
I didn't know that House of Cards had been on BBC
Luther wS ALSO A bbc SERIES. wAS IT SHOWN IN THE us?
I'llkeep quiet now

Bye Dawg!!! Enjoy!

Oh! Do have a great time Scrabs!!!
the new series with Kevin Spacey is on Netflix. The original BBC series can also be seen on Netflix but was originally shown on the BBC
We did a 7 mile hike in 3 hrs yesterday afternoon.
TY!
We are giving our bodies a rest today. Tomorrow we will kayak and hike.
I'm impressed!
Well, I'm still fat. Fairly fit, but fat. I have the metabolism of a rock.
By a very slim chance, scrabs, do you know Irene Szabo
Me too, Scrabs, but we must keep moving!
Oh dear....mom is already under my skin. Need to reset my button.
I have the metabolism of a lizard
Nope, Ruby.
Scrabs, if I exercised as much as you do and still struggled with weight, I would be depressed.
Well, losing weight is 80% diet and 20% exercise. I eat healthy food but too much of it.
OK, I must be going. Enjoy the day, all.
Have a wonderful day Scrabs!
Stats please for the third U word? I have UR 6/21 and UT 5/12.
when I was a runner, for the 5 years before I had surgery, my weight increase by about 5 lbs, all muscle. Now the muscles are gone, but I'm still here!!!
As Paul Harvey used to say, now for the rest of the story: December was originally the tenth month of the year in the Roman calendar until a monthless winter period was divided between January and February. It gets its name from the Latin word "decem" which means tenth. However, when the Romans added January and February to the calendar, it became the twelfth month. The name remained the same however.
Cool!

There's another wine in the grid today. Yesterday there were two

Yes
Done.
off to the second start of my day, bye.
<-- loves the wine clue
any brits around?
any people around at all? :)
i am here for a few more minutes
hiya
hi
hurshy, I never got to ask you a question about your zucchini recipe
Is it 375 for 1.5 hours?
I've seen similar recipes that bake at 375° covered, they involve uncooked rice. If using cooked rice, the baking time is usually shorter.
Hiya, Babblers! What's cookin?
It was a zucchini casserole mentioned yesterday I think.
ty Molly. I usually use cooked rice when I cook
I guess hurshy has left the building
I do too Bich, especially in casseroles. In that case, I'm sure 350 until bubbly is fine.
I don't make things with squash, since no one in my house likes it.
Does anyone have a list?
not yet
got it from Molly thanks
i am down to 24 left....trying to hang in...
i'm sorry
it was 375 for 1.5 hours, uncovered
even though the rice was cooked
the rice was all at the bottom though
dunno if that makes a difference
Hmm. Speaking of food, time to order lunch.
That seems like a long time if the rice were already cooked. And 375 is high heat
why not just check it when it's bubbly?
I will do that and toss a little eggplant in too
Clues for the 8's please?
use one of those cake testers to see if the veggies are cooked...
cake tester?
do you mean a toothpick?
*stands by with fork* I'll test that cake.
yes, something like that....i have a metal stick....fine...
mine is longer than a toothpick....perhaps 5 in...
Geesh. We've had some realy sticky grids lately. Color me discouraged.
I guess I could rustle up something metal and thin. Have so many cooking tools in the house
Bichon, you can buy cake testers in any kitchen gadget department. And they are handy to have.
it didn't bubble it wasn't a bubble kind of situation
hello. Judi I agree. Stuck a lot lately.
or a long toothpick... ;o).....
but, it was good
Just a little metal stick with a plastic handle.
and I use a strand of spaghetti to test cakes ;)
if it doesn't bubble, just test it at the half way point...
i mean i dunno what to tell you, it seems long and high for cooked rice, and yet, it worked fine.
good idea Liz
maybe it needs extra time to blend the flavors...
re 8/45 -- one who has come back from travel or military adventures
if you use the spaghetti, do it fast!
lol
ty o-o
Ty, o-o.
nothing was burned or whatever so...

oh, lizsark, you are british
can anyone clue me the other 8 pls
do you know much about law and/or royal appointments?
I am Hurshy
Clue me, too!
depends what I guess?
sa wine
What does that start with, Bichon?
NM. Light dawns.
we were watching "silk" on BBC, and this lawyer got made QC, and i said, so i guess when Elizabeth dies, all the QCs will become KCs, and then my husband says, if they keep their status. and i was like, i don't think it's like the Privy Seal, i don't think you lose it. i mean like you don't lose your knighthood, even if you're just Sir Elton John and you didn't inherit and you can't pass it on, right? so, do you know how it works with lawyers who are QC?
For a minute there, I thought "sa" meant South African. Talk about making my life more difficult.
Lawyers are KC when there's a King.
QC?
sa 8/45 --- cook or brown in butter or oil + sea eagle: e***
Hi Haz!!
Queen's Counsel or King's Counsel.
and if you were QC, you the same person, you just get to be KC automatically, you don't have to re-apply?
a nice dessert wine
king's court and queen's court?
No, you don't have to reapply. You don't apply in any case, you are appointed.
Hello, hego.
Hello Haz, you beat me to answering. Haven't 'seen' you for ages!
how are you?
I'm well. Hello, liz-though-not-still-on-sark.
well, you are appointed but you like, really want it and you have to go to an interview and stuff
Is QC or KC the prosecution or defense?
:)
is it like a cabinet secretary here and you have to be re-appointed when there is a new ruler?
Off to lunch. Ta for now.
you kin be BOTH prosecution AND defense there!
It can be either, bichon. It depends who retains the particular QC to argue their case.
lol I should change it! I was so sorry to hear from Becky about Spangle x But I believe you have a lovely new furbaby now?
and i think the C is for Counsel
I get little peeks of Haz on FB when she comments on Jacula's styff.
stuff, even
ha so i was right, you just get to keep it and your Q just switches to K
Yes, Dempsey has taken up residence in the household. Just over a year, blue roan cocker spaniel.
the c is for counsel
Haz? You are on facebook?
Terrific Haz!
No, I've never been on facebook.
Really>!
Jacula maybe transfers some of her blog to facebook, I don't know.
Aw love cockers xxxx
The infamous Star Chamber in today's world may be a destination for extraordinary rendition

No children of Dr. Watson are ever mentioned in the Sherlock Holmes stories.

you know that song they are dancing to when the floor opens up in "it's a wonderful life"? stuck in my head.
not a bad earworm.
I can picture the scene but not the music.
unfortunately i don't know the title
great flic, can't remember the tune
it's a swing type tune, they are doing the charleston
ba-ba ba-dum, ba-ba ba-dum...
i guess based on a google that it is called "the charleston"!
that is what wiki seems to be saying.
R's are a bit tricksy
And now everyone who has looked up Youtube is humming the tune.
Hello everyone. Haz, long time no see. Are you well?
Hello, Biltong, nice to see you. Yes, I'm well, thanks.
:)
if the french want to call out to each other do they yell, "yeau yeau!"
They're too sophisticated to do that.
i have sa8, what is the other 8, please? :)
re8.
ah thank you!
re 8 one who comes back
yep, charleston, if wikipedia is right " In the classic 1946 Christmas movie It's a Wonderful Life with James Stewart and Donna Reed, the song was played during the school dance scene."
now that right hand R, i have re5/14, what else we got there... ro, ru, ri... more re...?
Need to check on the dinner, bbl. Bye everyone.
Bye, Biltong.
aha, it's ru5 and 6

oh do you not even have stats cause you aren't pro?
1 left
ahhhh wow
got them from mollys profile earlier
that's impressive you are able to do so well then
well sure but that's not the same as up to date tile stats of what you have and what you need
ok top righthand corner n 7 letters
Sure it is, if you put your words next to the stats list
well we just went through those :)
there's the baby one
thats what i have done, however obviously missed 1
and the one that is a bit in your brain + vowel
will re-check
and new + sawbuck + sometimes vowel
ty
neonata
What happened to Lickety?
lol
Who knows?
molly, yes, i put my words next to the stats list as a last resort, it's just quicker and easier with the stats provided by doc, i think, and then if needed, go to the other stats list.
oh just change the end vowel there anita.
today, i was able to go listless!
I agree Hursh, I would hate playing without Tile Stats
i used to though. i went for a long time without going Pro.
i werz being stubbornly cheap
I'll rephrase it: Has anybody heard from or about Lickety?
It's such a reasonable price to join, I didn't have a problem with it. And no Erda, have not seen any news about Lickety.
there was a lickety list on ... sunday... and yesterday too right?
yes
it's been so long that i forget what pro gets you, do you at least get a word count without
poof
i don't think you even do get the word count
i remember asking how many words
likety was long delayed a couple of days ago, may be he is getting busy
No you don't, Hursh. That's why we have regular non-pro users asking for the word count.
Imagine working a monster grid, wondering when it will end
i think i have TWO songs in my head, alternating. the other one is Jolene.
Well, at least you have good taste in earworms. : )
but you wouldn't wonder joso, you would ask everyone else.
apparently chubby checker did a version of the charleston, would like to hear that but can't find a copy yet
I guess I would hurshy
well, see y'all later!
It's Chubby Checker & The Wildcats and it's on MySpace
Not much different than all the rest of the versions
not interested in joining myspace, but tnx molly
You don't have to join to hear the song
I remain pro but listless. Half, nbt and nbs are good enough and the occasional (very rare) FW is just a bonus.
I come on mosty to see which of the people I like are he**
hola ruby - this one may be doable listless
The vet was just he** to see if Rufie was OK as he looked "funny" to em. You may ask "How cN A DOG LOOK FUNNY?" BUT i JUST H AD A BAD FEELING
He appears to be OK,but it's the first time he ever growed at her

those subtle things are often the only clue... same with my older patients when the family says "they just seemed different"

Hermione :)
ding ding ding!
down to 5 and only seeing useless words like Hermione... may be time to list

And approx 90 minutes after Molly's joke, the penny drops with me. I've obviously inhaled too much paint fumes. Hey all:-)
Oh you need help.
True. :-(
See, there is a reason people drink Irish whiskey.
And a reason people have risque uncles!
Looks like just the pair of us on tonight, Molls.
That joke is far from risque. It's the joke that the old uncle (whose jokes everyone is sick of) thinks is hysterical.
Well - dodgy jokes, then! That joke of yours wouldn't be appreciated here. The pronunciation would kill it stone dead.
Didn't you get the memo? Chatting is out. Lurking is in. '
I'm a flurker, myself!
I'd listen to bad jokes in a good Irish pub any night.
lurk, flurk, smirk, go bezerk, it's all the same in the end
it's the whisky that makes the joke, and triple distilled is just on step closer to nirvana than a mere english double
Point of order Joso. Irish whiskey has an E in it!
so does one, must be the whiskey talking
on step closer, sheeesh
No such thing as 'one' drink. A bird never flew on one wing!
one step is very different than one, someone was telling me their are 12 steps. I wouldn't know, always lost count somewhere around 7 or 8
Ah yes, triple distilled, it's all so familiar.
always prefered irish over scotch, it's a smoother, sneakier poison.
If I keep working these memories I'll start drinking again
Are you a non drinking drinker Joso?
hi ladies n gents
yea, Not sure if it is old age or developing diabetes, but suddenly hangovers were an all body experience, booze was not worth the bother any more.
clue for the top row O, plz n ty?

Many cows, BDG
Thanks for posting stats, Molly...
Soodle and I are doing synchronized cluing tonight.
gads, fish me. having a low-energy day, including brain energy
Now, if only we could synchronise our lottery winning.....
halfway and nbt, woot
ah, the intrepid cluing duo are he4
or i should say, IS he4
We will have to agree on synchronicity since we have the running ise vs ize thing going. : P
Joso. When you have the time, search Youtube:- John B Keane. Whiskey. I don't drink it myself, but it's a very poetic tribute to the golden nectar.
Soodle and I balance each other out. Both Irish yet she does not drink whiskey and I do not drink tea (like the Irish do)
Molly, as long as the loot comes our way, I'll ize till my eyes pop out!
ok, will do. tnx Soodle
actually do drink once a year, introduced a whiskey tasting to the sci fi convention I used to run, became one of the more popular events at the con. still attend that.
i've been to a few sci fi cons. some of those folks should not drink LOL
Only 1/4 irish myself, but absolutely gussle tea.
There is no need for bulging eyeballs, missy.
by enlarge sf people are social misfits, interesting to see them get a chance to develop social skills they never had a chance to in high school.
who, me, a social misfit? (runs and hides)
Yes, by and large, it is.
ah gwen, if you've been around fandom enough you've seen them blossom, 5 years in fandom same as 5 years in highschool, odd misfits, generally brighter than average, but not socially ept.
if there's and interim, hows come there's no outerim? lol
was in Bmore for ComicCon last year, it was pretty fun
jealous!
yeah, i'm one of those inept fans, which is why i am on the interwebs all the time 8-)
the outer rim, thats where all the best sf tales take place, where commodore Grimmes patroled
brb, gotta throw something in the oven
do all the ou words begin with the same letter?
Yes, they all begin with O : P
sorry...meant to say the first three letters...
I know, just kidding. No, one does not
ok, thanks...
these last 25 are tricky
ou5, 1, not inner, 2 like 1 but a dyslexic ending, 3 ou + letter + 2 vowels
do all the M words start with a Q? ar ar ar
gwen, what was your first con, mine was toronto star trek 76
ah...trek conventions...have been to several....
my first was a really bad Detroit one, run by an outfit called Convention Connection, or something like that. It was for British scifi-fantasy
there was one actual Doctor Who guest, who happened to be one of my least favorite actors, who played one of my least favorite characters. Ugh. LOL
me too, and game cons, the one i was involved organizing for a few years is ad astra, another toronto based con.
i'm not a trekker, never been to any con that was trek-focused, but i do like voyager
here in the Detroit suburbs we have a semi-annual comic con, very well run, with a comic focus, but tons of other stuff, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, movies, lots of guest actors, writers, etc
british sf has always been a fav of mine, wyndham, hoyle, just found 2 old edmund cooper books in the local goodwill today
hey, i'm a bookdealer, i don't actually read the stuff LOL
philistine
no, time management! LOL
i read nonfiction, but when i watch movies-tv, i like fiction, as outlandish as possible, space ships, time travel, monsters, etc
what type of non fiction, i enjoy history but mostly pick it up from games and historical fiction. 4 times out of 5 when I pick up an actual history book I find the author can not write
you have inspired me to hit the library. bbl
yeah, i like history, liberal religious history in particular, and Universalist history to be exact
no, do not hit the library! libraries are nice!
i watched one of those dreadful shark movies on the scifi channel last week. i think they make them stupid on purpose
the shark tornado, i think i would have loved it when I was 5
admit to watching a small part of snarknado, but i watched the entire "sharktopus" -- really bad!
although the monster was kinda cool
sounds absolutely ghastly
so bad it is good type of experiance, lol
yeah, it was good for laughs, like many a bad scifi movie
a plan 9 from ou5 space
i am done.... :o)
congrats pen
ty!
wtg penquis !!!!!!!
not even sharktopus was as bad as plan 9
ok, plan 9 with good special effects, nothing can be as bad as plan 9
managed tp reminded myself i've never seen the ed wood movie, hunting down a copy now.

yeah, you! :P
i see you are ready for tomorrow. that photo was taken by the papter in my home town.
Over the past five years, so many people have said to me "oh yeah, I forgot about September 11th". I find that incredibly sad.
i may just fly my flag and liht my candle tomorrow night on the porch.
I fly the flag every year on September 11th.
i have some icons but i find them incredibly sad.
It is a bittersweet thing to remember. What makes our country great is how we stand, in the face of adversity. That is what I remember.
yes. but listening to tonightt' address, i resent those people and our seemingly neverending involvement in their morass.
Oh don't get me wrong. I meant standing in the face of adversity to our country. We no longer have any business in the problems of other countries. And yet, our "leaders" keep taking us there.
it is just too easy now. just push a button. no blood on their hands.
but i digress. i would love to finish, need a clue for he6/21 that is not a legal te4
They are both legal terms.
i have tried the in, at, and of.
oh heck.
but not the one i just tried, ty. fw
Well done, TO.
ty. i hate it that assad is threatening us. he is backing us into a corner. i truly think one cannot predict how a president will act, until he is faced with the reality of the job, i rather think those who voted for this one do not think they are getting what they signed up for.
but do we ever?
we don't seem to learn how to stay out of other people's business
And now the "weapons of mass destruction" thing works?
goodnight
I wish we never did Iraq.. and i have problems with Afghanistan too
Goodnight TO. And oh hell no, the people who voted for this president are not getting what they signed up for. Not at all.
good night TO
good night TO
And now, I'm sure it's time to change the subject to something "pleasant" like puppies, kitties or the weather.
they're gassing puppies and kittens in Syria?
Ssshh...the pleasant lovers won't like that.
Global warming means more puppies and kitties will suffer ..
well.. Molly... you are from... pleasantville
LOL TOrg
The global will warms them and they will all fry. AHHHHHH!!!!
not to mention the baby harp seals
Oh wait, it's "climate change" now.
or whatever Al says
The world is going to melt...or freeze...or something...please panic now.
*thinks about poor scrabbler stirring up dust in her snowshoes
haz will have to have her tea parties outside now
Aloy will have to move to Alaska
Outside? When the sky is falling? Yikes!
Mimi Cat will really be in Hell
Can you imagine Phoenix with global warming?
yikes
We're doomed!
golf courses will be endless sandtraps
Hell, the whole world will be a burning, miserable hell.
.. if my mom has just used less hairspray.. damn
Yeah, well no one knew about a carbon footprint and being "green" back then. Woe is us.
sounds like a Neil Young Song
She used her hairspray and The air got bad Global warming's made The world get sad Gone, gone, the damage done
good evening!
LOL molly
