3:16 am

Hello everyone. Hope everyone has their fingers crossed that neither Lickety or MRP are caught up in the NSW fires

3:19 am

hey lyn. both lickety and mrp live in sydney. the fires are in the blues mountains.

3:20 am

Hi Rose. Wasn't sure how far out they were, I knew they loved the bush

3:20 am

they are both in the burbs. i would think the smoke may be re5ing them.

3:21 am

yippie! theres people out there! Hello Rose and Lyn-hugs

3:22 am

evening/morning miz pugs. how are today?

3:22 am

oh, dear, am typing faster than my brain....no mean feat....

3:22 am

fine and dandy! How was your day with your friend and church

3:23 am

wonderful, thanx pugs. although it felt strange not to have himself beside me in church. i sort of count on his tenor to cover up my croaking...

3:24 am

hi Puglet

3:25 am

oh, while we were watching the races on tv, the camera panned to wh5 himself was sitting, and i could see him and his mates. such a buzz.

3:26 am

oh thats wild! He wasent doing anything embarrising was he? Like picking his nose--lol

3:26 am

good morning babble friends :)

3:26 am

lol pug... and wow rose.

3:27 am

Hello Mrs Sprite--hugs

3:27 am

*hugs* for both of you

3:27 am

nope, but his mouth was moving....talking nineteen to the dozen, as usual. and i checked, no blondes under his seat or on his lap. it is safe for him to come home...lol

3:27 am

hey ya sprite

3:28 am

how amazing that happened, rose. You can SO tease him with that :)

3:28 am

thats good then :)

3:28 am

hi Sprite

3:28 am

hi lyn :) xxx

3:28 am

yeah, well i almost missed him...he had a new cap on, not the one he took with him...*sigh*

3:29 am

maybe he swapped with his friend's

3:30 am

what was really weird was, that i recognised the back of his mate's head first. then glanced to whoever was beside him, and th5 himself was...lol

3:30 am

ouch. *giggle*

3:31 am

or maybe he lost it since he was under the influnce

3:32 am

oh, yeah, forgot that incident....or he left it in the panniers on the bike and couldn't be bothered to walk back and get his old one. now that i can understand.

3:33 am

I take it was warmer since you didnt say anything about him having a rag tied about his face

3:33 am

no doubt this has been said earlier in chat... but I want he6/27 to extend to a whe7 and a the7. And change the pronunciation of the he6 of course.

3:35 am

no one has been talking much until just now, Sprite

3:35 am

sprite th5 are lots of phantoms. brb, bird peeping for me to cover his cage...* sigh * i'm being bossed by a canary, for goodness sake!!

3:35 am

ah. In that case, I trust my brilliant post meets with lots of acclaim.

3:35 am

lolololllllll rose!

3:39 am

3:41 am

hi Flosey...I think Volley

3:41 am

Hi flosey

3:41 am

hi sprite - I woke and thought it was morning, so here I am, after maybe 2 hours of sleep

3:42 am

aw poor flosey :( Always happy to see you, but I wish you a better night than this.

3:42 am

thats how I always sleep

3:43 am

3:47 am

How are things with you Sprite

3:48 am

phantom :halcyon

3:48 am

ok, have Dee's list now, but I must get back to bed soon, this is ridiculous, I assumed it was morning just because I woke

3:48 am

started a new book last night, pug, and it picked me up. Nothing changed on the homefront, but at least I can handle it better now. Climbing back on the horse about food too, today.

3:49 am

good one, lyn

3:49 am

bye Flosey - you can't come back for at least an hour

3:49 am

sounds like it, flosey. Sleep well. And longer, grin.

....sprinkling fairy dust in flosey's eyes......

3:49 am

hi Chrissie :)

3:49 am

alright!Is this book related to your other

3:49 am

nice Chrissie

3:50 am

what I really want is a cup of coffee

3:50 am

no, totally new one.

3:50 am

Morning Chrissie

3:50 am

my head thinks it's morning

3:50 am

will babble for a bit

3:50 am

lol... flosey, no, you can't have coffee now. Go back to bed and give it a try... sleep is so important.

Hi sprite, lynx, pugs, flosey, rose and all others around

3:50 am

Here Flosey, Ill share with you

3:51 am

gday flosey, chrissie

3:52 am

what is your bird's name Rose

3:52 am

psycho....because he thinks he is a budgie

3:52 am

ah thanks pugs, have some now

3:53 am

grin... you gooo psycho

3:54 am

he used to tear the newspaper 'cuff' i put around his cage bottom, to stop him scattering seed all over the floor. at one stage i nearly called him abraham....

3:55 am

:D

3:56 am

the last few weeks he has taken to peeping at us both. you should he4 the racket when i carry his cage into the laundry to clean it...the peeps get faster and louder as i do so. it's hysterical. these are not his alarm cheeps, but peeps made in the back of his throat.

3:57 am

you don't understand the poor bird. He is seducing you, silly.

3:57 am

if don goes near him while we4ing his spectacles the bird starts his alarm call, don takes the glasses off, and the bird starts peeping at him.

3:58 am

ok, that might be a fashion statement

3:59 am

don't you think i know that? if i stand close to his cage and make kissy sounds, he hops up on his perch, spreads his little wings, and bobs his head right up to the wire, all the time peeping.

3:59 am

awwwwww so sweet!

4:00 am

i've never he4d of a canary doing that before.

4:01 am

good morning

4:01 am

cooee ruby, xoxox

4:12 am

Morning Joso and hugs back at ya

4:14 am

we actually saw himself sitting in the stands. when i texted him, his reply was ' do we look burnt?'i said...no, but your mouth was moving. his reply..' all normal then'

4:14 am

lol

4:14 am

I will be gaming in about 11 hours sprite

4:14 am

ah ok, joso. Guess I'll never learn :)

4:15 am

its sort of an in joke with us, as he talks in his sleep....

4:15 am

I expect to be very late here tomorrow, will probably miss you all

4:15 am

maybe we will run into eachother then, joso. I will be late too. Will play in my evening.

4:16 am

does he say anything interesting Rose

4:16 am

what time do you expect to be he4, joso?

4:16 am

maybe our stars will align then sprite, lol

4:17 am

do you take notes and question him later, rosie?

4:17 am

babble time, anywhere from 4 to 8

4:17 am

I would like that :D

4:17 am

lol, pugs, one night he quite clearly told me that leonard teale, an old ozzie actor, played superman in division four, a very old tv serial.

4:18 am

oh priceless, rose

4:19 am

i sat bolt upright, and said ...what?? then he sat up and said...why did you wake me? i was having a great dream...and i said, i know, you told me...lol..

4:19 am

lol

4:19 am

lolllll

4:20 am

My dad use to walk in his sleep and once mom got up and caught him washing walls-lol

4:20 am

my ex once sat up straight in bed, looked at me and said, worlds of relief in his voice: "Oh, but I can put YOU behind it!" Fell back down and slept on. Next day I asked him behind what... he didn't remember!

4:21 am

lol pug :)

4:21 am

and now he has started sleep-walking, sort of. he gets up in his sleep with a cramp, stands beside the bed until it goes, then gets back in and 'falls' asleep again. in the morning he can't remeber having done it.

4:22 am

rose, have you finished the grid?

4:23 am

yes m'am

4:23 am

congratulations :) Could you please tell me what the 8 starts with?

4:23 am

have you read about people who take Lunesta, the sleep med, who drive in their sleep and cook and don't remember anything?

4:24 am

omg ruby, that is not a good thing

4:24 am

hmmm, a word with 8 letters, i have one he4 somewh5....

4:24 am

oh, yes, ci8, plural of ci7

4:25 am

your thundering dogs remind me of something ruby. I the middle of the night we were frequently awakened by a thundering sound. we would get up and investigate and but not find anything. this went on for months, we started to speculate about ghosts. then one night I go to the bathroom and one of the cats is sitting in the tub. As i attend to things he starts running laps, running fast enough to go up on the sides of the tub like the cycle cage riders at the carny. Made a tremendous thundering sound.

4:25 am

lollll joso... oh priceless!

4:26 am

thank you, rose :D

4:26 am

I first heard the expression from a friend who had a big tomcat who used to "thunder" up and down the halls. It's funy, because cats and dogs can be incredibly quiet

4:26 am

good grief lol....and i thought my canary was nuts...

4:27 am

aagm now he's up....

4:27 am

*woof*

4:27 am

i had a cat wh5 used to run up the walls, run along the cornice for about 8 feet before jumping onto the floor

4:28 am

bye ruby

4:28 am

they can be so silly. Wonderful.

4:28 am

bye ruby!

4:30 am

poor ruby, she has so little time for herself.

4:30 am

I thought all cats were similar until i lived with a heard. they all have very distinct personalities.

4:31 am

oh yes, cats do. So do dogs.

4:31 am

and birds.....and husbands....

4:31 am

I think every animal has its own personility

4:31 am

husbands, right. Very much so, grin.

4:32 am

exactly, pugs.

4:33 am

a teacher of mine had (salt water) fi4. When they became too big, she donated them to the zoo. Months later they came to see them and they swam to the glass towards them again.

4:33 am

too cute, and they say fi4 don't have a memory...

4:34 am

exactly. I was baffled when she told me. But I know she tells the truth.

4:34 am

My hens each are different in their actions

4:35 am

yes, chickens too. I noticed when in therapy at the farm.

4:36 am

if fi4 have a memory, do you think it would be possible to teach a husband to turn close the faucet or put out the lights?

4:36 am

well my friend has a fi4 she has had for 11 years. she got it when it was about one inch long, it is now 9 inches long, and it is called ben...and when she taps gently on the glass, it wims over and wags it's head at her.

4:37 am

lolol...don't know sprite, put him on fi4 oil capsules and see if it makes a difference.

4:37 am

when I went out to vegas to visit my sister,we went to a lake where people fed the fish there and i was shocked by hundreds coming up by the docks with their mouths open for bread==it was a awsome sight

4:38 am

pug, the pond in ruby's garden is the same. Her husband enjoys feeding the fi4 in it.

4:39 am

lol rose. Sometimes I feel like... not sure what you call it in english. We call it the 'broom car' - the car that rides behind a race to pick up the stragglers and wounded.

4:39 am

oh wow, rose, special, that fi4. We don't know a 10th of what goes on in animals, if you ask me.

4:41 am

I dont think we do either Sprite

4:44 am

I got one wh5/24 to get to have all the w's---could I please have a clue

4:44 am

we call it the safety car...

4:44 am

quick translation of a little verse in dutch: A midget is small a cow is big but how small is life? how big is death? How big, how small, is all our knowledge? with what shall we measure our thinking? Life would lose its shine if we ran out of secrets. We come, we go, we pack it in... and a cow is big... and a midget is small...

4:45 am

good morning everyone..or afternoon..or evening

4:45 am

do you have wh5, sounds like the female wizard

4:45 am

hey ya ives

4:45 am

yes

the list of wh's, wh 4, 5, 6, 5, 6, 4, 4, 5, 5, 4, 5

4:47 am

Jack, what a delightful, cuddly cat that is in your icon.

4:47 am

pugs, it's a plural

4:48 am

g'day jack

4:48 am

I found it, thanks

4:48 am

Thanks. She's curled up on the back of the couch at the moment

4:48 am

hi grannyrose

4:48 am

cats can sleep in the oddest places

4:48 am

Hi jack

4:49 am

Liked the poem Sprite

4:49 am

Hi puglet

4:49 am

I'm missing the the second wh5 and 6, any clues please?

4:49 am

it is by Toon Hermans, pug, and I like it very much. Such a simple way of reminding us of how little we actually know about the world.

4:49 am

how about the wr6/33-sorry rose thought I need only one w

4:50 am

plural question about place, pug

4:50 am

now wh5 did i put that clue for flosey?

4:50 am

never mind me... that was wh6.

4:50 am

I didn't see it rose

4:51 am

pugs, a ghost or spirit,

4:51 am

ah, but do you see it now, flosey?

4:52 am

nm, got it - they're words I thought I had

4:52 am

Sorry to appear and then disappear but feeling we5, getting late here. Might catch you tomorrow. Stuck at 126 tho so a long way to go ... Night all

4:53 am

thanks for the wr6, rose

4:53 am

bye Jack, sleep well

4:53 am

night, jack...sleep well, hun

4:53 am

Iam not seeing no ghost :(

4:53 am

ty

4:53 am

lol pug!

4:54 am

puglet, the grapes of wr***, put another vowel in it.

4:54 am

wr + other word for help **d + definite article minus last letter

4:55 am

I seen the ghost!

4:55 am

thanks

4:56 am

yay, pugs, well done, hun

4:56 am

I got 107 to go and it feels more like 1007 to go

4:57 am

much harder without lickety list

4:57 am

ives, list in volleydeemom's profile

4:58 am

I wish I had a flying broom! But I cant see sitting on one to be very comfy

4:58 am

ooo ooo a list

4:59 am

aww, pugs, you ride side-saddle hun...just ask my mother.

4:59 am

such a silly idea that a witch would ride a broom. I mean if you can make something fly, you'd pick at least a stool, right? Or even better, a couch.

4:59 am

well ivesy isnt

4:59 am

ty granny..i need a list ....ohhhh thundering here

4:59 am

A dragon - even better!!!

5:00 am

i think joso has taken up making impressions...did that sound like a train whistle to anyone else?

5:00 am

oooooo yes a dragon!

5:00 am

Hi ya Liz

5:00 am

clearly, rose

5:05 am

how i get to dee's icon

5:06 am

joso, go to rankings, use Control F and her name, then click her name

5:07 am

hi Liz :)

5:07 am

I seen on the news last week where some guy has made a flying suit. So one day we might be able to rent one to fly to each others homes :)

5:07 am

Hi again - lost babble for a while.

5:08 am

Love dragons - specially anne mccaffrey ones!

5:08 am

oh I'd really love that, pug.

5:08 am

ooooo so do I, Liz! The Pern books!

5:08 am

i would love to fly..and be invisible

5:08 am

Only got a few mins tonight - been in and out all afternoon. 56 to go.

5:08 am

i agree lizlin

5:08 am

Love Pern books!

5:08 am

we all did, Liz... the daily hiccup of 5 am grid time

5:09 am

Ah! Not usually on grid at 8 pm here!

5:09 am

it is the server reset... for the rankings and such

5:10 am

I get it at 6am here

5:10 am

OK - I'll remember that. Often blips at 5.15 pm here - that'd be about 2.15 grid time.

5:10 am

it is at noon here. But 5 am grid time.

5:10 am

6 am here too..course i always forget what it is

5:10 am

feeling edgy today.. i hate the shot i take for my diabeties..makes me jumpy

5:11 am

:( ivesy... so necessary, but not fun. *hugs*

5:11 am

Feel better soon - but as sprite says - worth it!

5:11 am

yes sprite.. but does bring my a1 c down.

5:12 am

ty liz

5:12 am

it is always a balancing act, isn't it

5:13 am

yes..and i hate it.. very hard to control.

5:13 am

I hear you! You are a true hero to do it all the time.

5:14 am

does it seem harder for women to keep under control then men

5:14 am

sometimes i just want someone to come in and say ..here eat this. not this.lol

5:14 am

lol indeed, and make it for you!

5:14 am

sprite, control F what?

5:14 am

i worked with a guy who was diabetic and he did so well with it

5:15 am

control + F opens a search window, rose. Then type in the name you want in the search window. The page will scroll to the name and highlight it

5:15 am

okay, will try again

5:15 am

the people I know, the women seem to have a harder time keeping it level

5:16 am

pug, I think that is because of the hormone ups and downs. Men's are much more level. Ours always fluctuate. Which influences our BS levels but also our moods.

5:16 am

I wish that worked with Macs!

5:16 am

let me see, Macs have a similar thing

5:16 am

I think you are right Sprite

5:17 am

oh yeah, Control + space, opens Spotlight

5:18 am

OK might try that. ty

5:18 am

no, sorry. It is the Command button + F for Macs

5:18 am

spotlight is another function than the search function. I don't have a Mac, can't always remember exactly.

5:19 am

Tried command F and got to spotlight but it searches the web or computer rather than the list. Not important!

5:19 am

liz, try clicking on edit, then find. does the same thing

5:20 am

so thankful for the people who put list up.. i dont c them because they are on so early.. volley is great at it as are so many others.

5:20 am

darn. Sorry Liz.

5:20 am

wh5 edit Rose?

5:21 am

on my page top left corner, next to file

5:21 am

Gotta go - back later. enjoy the grid and chat. Hugs to all :)

5:21 am

See what you mean - will try that later!

5:21 am

yes Bless Dee for always posting a list when lickety is't with us

5:21 am

weird. It should be command + F

5:22 am

ok, I'm back to bed, goodnight everyone

5:22 am

night flosey, sleep well now, and don't pretend it is morning before the fact :)

5:23 am

i remember someone actually complaining becuz she didnt put spaces between..i thougt wtf!! lol

5:23 am

I have 2 positive facts to mention: A. I am back to eating regularly and healthier and B. I feel better as a result.

5:24 am

wtg sprite!! what an accomplishment..good for you.!

5:24 am

jeezzz ivesy, lol! Some people... but then again, some demand to be handfed the whole grid, so I shouldn't be surprised.

5:25 am

thanks ivesy! Am trying to keep this in mind next time I feel too stressed and down to mind my food... it definitely deteriorates how I feel when I let the food slip.

5:26 am

have donated the last of my snack stash to my daughter, grin. She will have a nice little snack next time she is home.

5:27 am

oh, sprite, command F worked okay for me as well. but i didn't realise what i was looking for. then when i saw it, i thought that looks just like....and it was...

5:27 am

ah ok, was wondering where I went wrong, grin. Glad it works as it should.

5:28 am

brb

5:29 am

Sprite, you should be so proud of all you done for yourself

5:29 am

i know i feel crappy when i eat the food i shouldnt . i want to get off this roller coaster too...sprite you give me hope!

5:30 am

You can do it too Ivesy!

5:32 am

yay you, sprite. i understand what a battle it is for you, hun. am proud of what you have achieved.

5:33 am

oh, just realised, this is the third night in a row and NO tv. so quiet he4.

5:33 am

rose, did you get together with your friend today

5:34 am

i know pug.. i just havent been trying.. and thats why i feel lousy..and depressed. .i need to change!!..i will think of sprite who is going thru so much yet is doing it......

5:34 am

yes, dear. it was great. and we actually saw himself on the tv.

5:34 am

Is he due back tonight or tomorrow

5:35 am

and we did all the wrong things, ate crackers and dip, chocolate, drank cider and bourbon( not together, of course). he's due back tomorrow sometime about lunch.

5:36 am

I know its hard for me to make changes because I get into a rut and its hard to get out of it

5:37 am

oh well Rose, its not like its done everyday

5:38 am

back. Thanks all :) Ivesy, you can do it. Don't be hard on yourself for not having done it. Just try to make one change a month, and start with the easiest. In a year, you will have turned around your eating patterns without too much hardship.

5:38 am

lovely, rose! Sometimes, a day like that is just what the doctor orders.

5:39 am

no, hun, otherwise i probably wouldn't be he4....lost 3 of 4 grandparents to massive heart attacks, my dad had a quadruple coronary artery bypass, and my mother is up to heart attack number 20 something. that's not how i want to go...

5:39 am

I need to put less time on the computer--thats one thing I need to change

5:40 am

you won't, rose. You eat so healthy and balanced normally. A single blurp won't do harm.

5:40 am

as long as you won't stop playing babble then, pug ;)

5:40 am

oh I wont unless its down

5:41 am

dem... the boy is back home and Rob is away. Not pleasant. Breathe in.... breathe out...

5:41 am

* YAWN * getting sleepy, so sleepy....it's been a long day. xoxox to all of you.

5:41 am

in the space of a second my heartbeat went up to alarm levels, just knowing the boy is back home. Not good.

5:41 am

night rose, sleep well and dream naughty dreams

5:41 am

night Rose, hugs and sweet dreams

5:42 am

Sprite cant you shut yourself off from him

5:43 am

no hun. Not possible with ptsd. Hyper vigilant with all senses, that is me.

5:44 am

final thought, hit him with the rolling pin, then say i thought you were a burglar...

5:44 am

how about putting something in his drink or food to knock him out for ahwile or at least mellow him out--lol

5:44 am

ooooo good idea, rose :D Especially because I have asked them all to yell when they come home, and he doesn't do that anymore now to spite me.

5:45 am

hehehe pug, I like that too.

5:45 am

night *poof*

5:46 am

pug, I still think it would be best to ship him off to France, and send ruby here. Tim can take care of mr Grumpy and we can spoil ruby silly here.

5:47 am

that would be super! when? lol

5:47 am

*grin* Right now would be nice.

5:48 am

lol---can you drive to Ruby's

5:48 am

if the car worked, I could

5:49 am

shes really having a hard time too

5:50 am

taking care of an older and deteriorating husband is no easy feat

5:50 am

no, and I think its more than just that

5:50 am

uh oh, I came on when you were talking about me. No wonder my ears were burning.

5:50 am

Is she our age

5:51 am

I would love to see Tim having to take care of Burt! He would definitely have to "stepp up"

5:51 am

hiya ruby :) All good, hun, all good things.

5:51 am

are they Ruby? worring about you

5:51 am

he sure would, ruby! And Burt would realise he could be in worse hands than yours, grin.

5:51 am

I'm 70 older than all you "kids"

5:52 am

but jilli and flosey beat you hands down, ruby, grin

5:52 am

wish we could be there to support you through rough waters

5:52 am

unfortunately, the current problems are not Burt -- they are much bigger!

5:52 am

the thing you don't want to talk about online, ruby?

5:52 am

Is there anything we can do for you?

5:53 am

exactly, sprite, not that I'm paranoid or anything lol lol

5:53 am

sprite hope you dont mind I use we

5:53 am

*grin* no, but I do understand. Scary stuff. Do you have legal advice?

5:54 am

never, pug. I'll gladly be part of your 'we'.

5:54 am

yes, legal advice coming out the wazooo and costing a fortune!

5:54 am

pugs, you are part of my life

5:55 am

but are they helping

5:55 am

argh, not good. So frustrating. No chance you get legal help from the us of a?

5:55 am

thanks Ruby

5:56 am

that's what's costing so much. My Frlawyer is much more reasonable

5:56 am

Your son dont try to help or support you

5:56 am

my son blames me for the troubles

5:56 am

ah I see. Hate to know you are so alone in this, ruby. I know the feeling. And it sucks.

5:57 am

he is barely SPEAKING TO ME atm

5:57 am

even if thats true, Im sure hes not been perfect and he should be there for you

5:58 am

sounds like you need to turn him over your knee and so does Sprite-lol

5:58 am

ruby, maybe write him an email in wh5 you say: never mind that you are mad at me and you think I haven't been nice to you... I really really need your support right now, so let's park the other issue and focus on the now.

5:59 am

I ALREADY TRIED THAT, SPRITE, BUT GOT A VERY PALE RESPONSE

5:59 am

whoops, sorry for shouting

5:59 am

darn, that stinks. You have been a great mother to him, so he should be willing to put aside his issues for the moment and be there for you.

5:59 am

I think Sprite is right on that--you shouldnt have to be all alone in dealing with everything-

5:59 am

son will be 50 on Wed and I've sent him a gift and envelope. We'll see if he responds

6:00 am

here goes for hoping, ruby

6:00 am

fingers crossed

6:00 am

I don't feel alone; you guys in babble are a wonderful support group and you can't imagine how much I appreciate you

6:00 am

Is B his father

6:01 am

no, I left his father when I was 27, but he has become him

6:01 am

yeah well, we are here for you, that is for sure, ruby. But support in the flesh is needed as well.

6:02 am

well Iam like sprite, you needsomeone in flesh and someone who cares about your wellbeing

6:03 am

I only have one close friend here and she is supportive, but very busy with her own stuff

6:03 am

with all thats going on with Burt its too much

6:04 am

I really don't have a choice

6:06 am

fireflies. Interesting grid.

6:06 am

w2g Sprite

6:06 am

am off to be domestic for a bit. Don't wanna be, but things don't get done all by themselves, for some obscure reason. *hugs* to you all.

6:07 am

I know you will be heading out(as am I) hope all goes well at the group meeting and hugs to you and Ruby

6:07 am

bye everybody, thanks for being th***. It's starting to thunder (not the dogs), so I had better shut down

6:07 am

thanks sweetie :)

6:08 am

{{pugs}}

6:14 am

7:10 am

Cat angst

7:11 am

good morning everyone. our cats have us well trained they know when it is breakfast time within a 15 minute window using their internal clocks and if breffast is not laid out for them at that time, there is no peace

7:13 am

a balmy 3 celcius atm and there was a nice frost on the jeep an hour ago when i had to go get some eggs:/ winter is a-coming

7:14 am

7:16 am

7:55 am

oops...and I had just found the ra4 too.. :)

7:56 am

Yumm! TY Crossy, will let you know when I hit 150

7:56 am

: D Hard not to make a PB slip when there are so many common words

7:56 am

:(...no BLT's in the PB

7:57 am

I will put some of the awesome apple/pecan baked French toast I made this morning in there

7:58 am

:D...can't wait!

7:59 am

With country sausage and fruit salad is is a very nice Fall breakfast

8:02 am

*it is

8:04 am

*sits down at Molly's table*

8:05 am

*Pours Annie a cup of fresh ground coffee*

8:06 am

I just whole bean coffee in error and now I am grinding coffee beans. Might just go get a bag of ground beans later. Thanks for a good cup of coffee.

8:06 am

works for me.crossy brings over plate of crispy hickory smoked/maple kissed Canadian bacon, sets it on the table and tucks into some french toast as well

8:06 am

*BOUGHT

8:07 am

There is nothing like the smell of fresh ground coffee. (Unless you're Hurshy)

8:07 am

and sizzling bacon

8:08 am

unless you are carlee lol

8:08 am

yes, youre right, lol

8:09 am

more for the rest of us:))

8:09 am

In the movie Fried Green Tomatoes, when Miss Threadgood goes on about how she misses the smell of coffee brewing and the smell of bacon frying...that would be me. I love the smell of breakfast.

8:09 am

my favorite meal of the day

8:10 am

we may not agree on much molly but i do agree that breakfast is king:))

8:10 am

"eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper"

8:10 am

My Dad used to make me breakfast, or take me out for breakfast while my Mom and my sister slept in. I think my love of breakfast smells comes from that.

8:12 am

mm,but unless i find 30 more words here,talking about bacon is all i will be doing! lol

8:25 am

Good day to all.

8:26 am

Hey, Crossy, my computer guru, I am deciding between an ASUS MemoPad, Google Nexus 7, or Kindle FireHD.

8:27 am

if you are looking at 7 inch tablets, look no further than the nexus 7, scrabby

8:27 am

top value for the $

8:28 am

That's what the reviews indicate, although some people have had problems. Overall the experts (CNET) show the Nexus 7 as top model.

8:28 am

i use cnet as part of my research as well and would trust their opinions

8:28 am

and i have friends who own them as well

8:29 am

a micro sd slot would of been nice,but there is always cloud if you need heavy duty storage

8:29 am

TY for your input.

8:29 am

np

hello

8:30 am

Hi Owl.

8:30 am

morning, folks

8:30 am

Hi Welki

8:31 am

Our morning paper has a travel article about Calgary, welki.

8:31 am

are you packin' up and coming west?

hi scrabbler, hi welk

8:32 am

hi, owl

8:32 am

I would like to hike at Glacier National Park.

8:33 am

and i'd like to fish down there - we do flyfish fish nearby, in an area called crowsnest pass

8:34 am

within an hour's drive of calgary, there are tons of places to hike/climb/canoe/raft

8:34 am

I saw a dozen or so anglers yesterday at the base of a waterfall, a dam actually. Many were out in their waders. Beautiful scene on a fall day.

8:35 am

how many words today?

8:35 am

247

8:35 am

our fall colours are going fast, scrabby. we will have good hiking for the next week or so,but after that i think things are going to start looking pretty bare up here;((

8:35 am

thanks scrabbler

8:36 am

we were out on the trails yesterday and the sugar maples are exploding with reds.it is stunning

8:36 am

our leaves are just about all down, we don't get the spectacular fall colors you get back east, not enough water here to sustain trees that have substantial sugar in their leaves

8:36 am

We are well past "peak" colors here and most of the leaves have fallen. But just 15-30 miles north, where my family and friends live, there are still many gorgeous reds.

8:37 am

although we sure had more than enough water this past spring :(

8:38 am

Crossy, the reason I am looking at tablets is that we may no longer use our work laptops for personal use, and my 2008 Acer Aspire One netbook will not recognize WPA from my router. I have been researching how to update my netbook, but with no luck.

8:38 am

Yes, the bad flooding, welki.

8:39 am

Gesundheit!

8:39 am

That is a clue.

8:40 am

God bless you!

so then,scrabbler, what about storage and file transfers? some one i know recommended a lenovo that functions as both

8:40 am

Good morning, Annie and Bobby.

and i have a friend who has a dell that functions as both

8:40 am

Hi Scrabbs!

8:41 am

I don't know much about tablet features, really. Just doing my research on tablets vs laptops.

8:41 am

Annie, is Bobby glad the Sox are in the series?

i have discarded tha tblet idea - unless i buy both

8:42 am

Hi Bea

8:42 am

yes,the 2008 aspire is getting long in the tooth as far as the new breeds of routers are concerned

8:42 am

Good morning all.

and i don't see that in the near future. no usb ports on tablets

8:42 am

my asus transformer tablet has usb ports

8:43 am

and micro sd slots

8:43 am

<-- is glad the sox are in the series! that was a fantastic grand slam last night!

8:43 am

Bea, He is very happy about the Sox. We both had a tiring day (good day) yesterday and didnt see the end of the game. Do you know who won? Tigers or Sox?

8:43 am

but that is not exactly what scrabby is after i think

but of course it does!

8:43 am

The Sox are heading to the Series.

8:43 am

i do not think she wants to drop 500 dollars on a fully loaded 10 inch tablet

oh annie, rub it in. there is no cheer in chat this AM

8:44 am

they won, 5-2 after victorino hit a grand slam in the 7th

8:44 am

I was looking to spend < $300. I panic with large expenditures.

8:44 am

if you do scrabby, go with the nexus 10 or the transformer infinity

i love victorino. the philles were stupid to let him go

8:44 am

what's wrong, owl?

8:44 am

Happy Sunday All

8:44 am

then the 7 we talked about is right up your alley

8:44 am

I am not a Sox fan. I just told Bobby the sox won. He is thrilled.

8:45 am

Buon giorno, Hego.

scrablbler, if you do costco you can find many modela about $50 less than retail

8:45 am

scrabbs - you work long and hard and i understand your struggle with spending large amounts of money (i remember your lawn mower angst). you deserve to splurge every now and again - buy what you want, what you WANT

8:46 am

I use TigerDirect for electronics, but Amazon's prices are the same and I have an Amazon credit card that earns me points.

8:46 am

Tell him I 'm rooting for the Cards in the Series. =)

8:46 am

Go Sox!!

welki, saw ad ad for travel in the canadian rockies - maybe next year for foliage

that is good i have a costco that does the same for me

8:47 am

TY, welki. I am frugal and not self-indulgent, so I do struggle. This week I am working 3 extra sessions so that will pay for what I buy.

8:47 am

i also use tiger direct,scrabby.have never had any issues with them

8:47 am

Our leaves are just starting to turn.

8:47 am

no foliage to speak of here, owl - that's reserved for the east coast. our trees go yellow and fall within a couple of weeks

8:48 am

Bea, I just told

8:48 am

sometimes, you just have to splurge, scrabbler - it's not like you're out buying prada bags and having hot stone massages every week

8:49 am

Bobby you are rooting for the Cards. The game is on!

8:49 am

=)

8:49 am

:)

8:49 am

loving these s's

welk, are you on fb now?

8:50 am

yes, it's open

8:50 am

I know how you feel Scrabbs. I am having a tooth implant and the cost is so high I gasped. But it is a front tooth and I decided I worked long and hard and this is what I need and want so I swallowed and did it.

8:50 am

TY, welki. I live a simple life--13.95 haircuts at Supercuts, no hair products, no make-up, no jewelry, no purses, no fancy shoes or clothes, just LL Bean-type clothes, no spa appointments, no alcohol,....geez, I am boring, aren't I?

8:51 am

not boring - just discerning as to what you spend your money on

8:51 am

Scrabbs, not boring at all. Buy what you want. Welki and I are in agreement.

8:51 am

You should treat yourself once in a while

8:52 am

You deserve it!

8:52 am

Annie, I had a tooth implant finished up this summer and the total cost was $5000 for all of the steps. Now I need a crown on another tooth, and a different tooth is aching mildly. Grr, damn teeth.

8:52 am

hi hego

8:52 am

Hi Annie

8:52 am

I knew my buddies would give me permission to spend some money for myself.

8:52 am

:D

8:53 am

and, as long as you're at it, buy yourself a pumpkin latte :)

8:53 am

if you have it,spend it scrabbs! you cannot take it with you.there is no prize for having the most at the end.live,love and laugh

8:53 am

Maybe I will!

8:53 am

Scrabbs, Here in Brooklyn my tooth is costing me a little over $7000, and I am still gasping. Insurance does not cover any of the steps. Oy!

8:54 am

My dental insurance maxes out coverage at $1000/year, so that helped only a bit.

8:54 am

i ten to save and buy quality, so i only have to buy it once. for example we saved 20 years for our hand crafted bedroom set

8:54 am

If only you could know just how long you're going to live, then you could budget accordingly. lol

8:54 am

true, hego *lol*

8:55 am

Nice, Crossy. I would like to order some Amish furniture. I am lucky to live in Amish country.

8:55 am

i have all the money i need for the rest of my life....as long as i die next thursday lol

8:55 am

hahahaha

8:55 am

we chose the mission designs

8:55 am

Hahaha.

8:55 am

funny, crossy

8:56 am

had a local builder make it.no imported wal-mart sweat shop stuff for crossy!

8:56 am

i have very little "good" furniture - my grandmothers dining room set, her secretary and two mission oak rockers - the rest is what i've scrounged up throughout the years - not my priority, furniture

8:56 am

A neighbor died unexpectedly a few days ago, in late 60's, of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Wife is friend since 7th grade and he was almost 15 yrs older. Reminder that life is short and unpredictable, so enjoy every moment.

8:57 am

i do have art work, books, musical instruments and good kitchen equipment

8:57 am

yes,live for today because yesterday is gone and tomorrow has yet to be written

8:57 am

ohh, that's a rough one, scrabbs :(

8:58 am

Stats for the I in fifth column, please?

8:58 am

I have a solid oak dining room table and 6 chairs, a solid oak "pie safe", and a solid oak bench. Nothing else is nice here.

8:58 am

ic 5/12

8:58 am

just looking at that Bea. no luck.

8:58 am

^5 scrabbs - we have animals and probably don't spend much time at home. less to fuss over

8:58 am

got it!

8:58 am

Thanks, Annie.

8:59 am

Yes, welki, I spend money on outdoor gear.

8:59 am

youre welcome

8:59 am

we have the bed set, a hand crafted microwave stand her brother made 15 years ago, a solid wood book case i made and a solid wood kitchen table with blue willow plate chips inlaid in the top.everything else is early yard sale

9:00 am

Any ex- words?

9:00 am

yep, crossy - amazing how it all 'comes together' at the end, though - my house looks pretty well put together (to me, anyway)

goota run, welk has mail.

9:00 am

We are a frugal bunch, aren't we?

9:01 am

Bye, Owl.

9:01 am

bye owl

9:02 am

Google Nexus 7 has one USB port, I see.

9:02 am

well the table was a funny thing.was a nice early 40,s solid wood table with 4 mission chairs. then one day we dropped an entire box of the wifes blue willow dish set!!...

9:02 am

OUCH!!!

9:03 am

so i got the router and made a depression in the table top about 3/4 inch deep with an edge of about 4 inches all around and fillet it with grout and inlaid the dish chips and made it all smooth and level and put a sealer on it.looks very nice

9:03 am

Oops.

9:04 am

Very creative, Crossy!

9:04 am

i have seen it done with walkways,so why not table tops

9:05 am

I have outdoor tables like that. Good idea.

9:05 am

the blue of the dish chips and the warm glow of the wood work well together

9:07 am

if you do this though,remember to tack dwon some fine mesh in the area you are filling.give the grout something to adhere to than just smooth wood

9:07 am

down

9:07 am

very handy guy, Crossy.

9:07 am

it is like when you lath and plaster

9:07 am

Resourceful man, our Crossy!

9:08 am

:)

9:09 am

I am struggling to get halfway. Up to 106.

9:10 am

what i want to do one day is get a table like the one i just described,cut out the depression and practice wood inlay, but it is very hard to lay the patterns just right. you see the inlay work of the old craftsmen and want it

9:11 am

Find a table at a yard sale, Crossy.

9:12 am

yes. practice,practice,practice but it must wait as my schooling is keeping me busy now.i start english classes on monday

9:13 am

Reading and writing--good luck. I never liked those classes.

9:14 am

Loved those classes. Funny.

9:15 am

Must go. Hagd All. Bbl.

9:15 am

yup, from now till next june i will be tearing apart the classics for autopsy lol

9:15 am

tc hego

9:16 am

You will shine Crossy. Bye.....

9:16 am

Ciao, Hego.

9:17 am

Welki, I just found 2 piscine words, fi4 and fi5.

9:17 am

followed by a year of business college courses

9:17 am

MAth was always my best subject.

9:17 am

I've seen those blue willow tables. They are very nice. http://tinyurl.com/k4ruc7x

9:17 am

also, fi 7/44

9:18 am

yes molly,close,but instead of going right out to the edge like that one,mine has a 4 inch wood border with the blue willow square in the centre

9:19 am

i did not want to hjide all the wood like that one in your pic

9:19 am

hide

9:21 am

TY, Annie

9:22 am

aha - thanks annie!

9:22 am

youre welcome

9:22 am

did you know that piscine can also mean swimming pool? lol

9:23 am

oui, monsieur

9:23 am

:)

9:23 am

Piscine was the only non-fi5 adjective that came to mind, haha

9:24 am

9 more words then it is bacon time!

9:24 am

I need 3 to pass halfway

9:24 am

i must be assimilating better than i thought - caught myself speaking french phrases to a person at work on friday (who spoke little english). those french classes through uni sure must have stuck

9:24 am

i am at 142/105

9:25 am

And at 125/122 I am done. Must vacuum before nephew arrives with girlfriend and toddler. We're going to the pumpkin patch.

9:26 am

9:26 am

scrabbs, have a great time

9:37 am

tc scrabby and have a great day

10:01 am

whew! half way, but not enough for a BLT!

10:02 am

I don't think BLT's need to be dependent on number of words attained. Go for it.

10:03 am

BLT,s for all! (regardless of words attained thus far)

10:03 am

uhuh...crossy promised :)

10:03 am

*Contributes some of the last of the garden fresh tomatoes*

10:03 am

(To the tune of 'Rawhide') Bacon! Bacon! Bacon! Crossy loves his bacon, Bacon, bacon, bacon, and rinds! Keep that bacon movin’ Though doctor’s disapprovin’ Crossy loves his bacon, so fine! Fry ‘em up, nice ‘n’ slow, Crunch ‘em up, lay ‘em low, Bacon strips, bacon steaks, Bacon whips, bacon flakes! Crispy strips for breakfast, Smoky slabs for dinner, Crossy loves his bacon, divine!

10:03 am

i am 6 short but the baon is ready and the tomatos are sliced and the lettuce is ready and the real mayo or miracle whip is at hand

10:03 am

Rules are made to be broken Phae

10:05 am

been out blowing leaves...exhausted

10:05 am

<--Also opts for Miracle Whip

10:05 am

I know, but I couldn't quite work it in to fit the tune. :D Here's the hilarious part: I've been singing 'bacon, bacon, bacon' to Rawhide for years, when I fix it in the morning. But the song really belongs to crossy.

10:05 am

love it so much ch1212 that it is going in my profile right now.with all due credit to you noted:))

10:06 am

You should see the idiot guy behind me who blows leaves around a postage stamp townhouse backyard. Like he can't be bothered to use a rake for 20 minutes.

10:07 am

10:07 am

can't rake 5 acres

10:08 am

10:08 am

10:08 am

you are blowing leaves off of an entire five acres of grassy lawn?? wow

10:09 am

that is one big arsed lawn

10:09 am

This is an "ugh, me need to make noise with loud tools" kind of guy.

Jilly! You're home!! How was your trip?

1:15 pm

Was the hotel great?

1:18 pm

Hello molly.... :-)

Peri The Goat

1:20 pm

snicker...

1:20 pm

I have Dee's list in my profile

1:20 pm

had I been able (without cold) I'd have been in Vancouver over Thanksgiving

1:21 pm

I heard Harp and Seain had a nice get together.

1:21 pm

so we had to satisfy with a Skype reunion

1:21 pm

Yes, we did! He is a delightful person and we went to a wonderful organ recital at the Kennedy Center.

1:21 pm

hego's moving to napa soon .. we had such a nice time :D

1:22 pm

It was nice to get Seain's inside knowledge of the DC area.

1:22 pm

I hope to do some meetups when we are back east in December

1:22 pm

The Kennedy Center is beautiful. Great place to see a show.

1:22 pm

hego, you really moving there?

1:22 pm

Peri the Goat?

1:22 pm

I wish

1:22 pm

ah.. i do understand the desire, for sure

1:23 pm

It was my first time doing anything but changing planes in DC. We spent a week on the Eastern Short (MD & VA) then two days in DC.

1:23 pm

is6?

1:23 pm

ok, i'm down to 59... got to go outside and enjoy the nice weather while i can

1:23 pm

I used to work for people who had box seats at The Kennedy Center. Occasionally they would throw the peons a bone. I saw some great shows there.

1:23 pm

Peri The Goat meant Ru asked for a clue and then did the NM thing one second later.

1:24 pm

oh, ok, I had no idea what you were talking about, Molly

1:24 pm

Our eastern shore is gorgeous Harp. Glad you got to see it.

1:25 pm

it's not bad being a goat peri :D

1:25 pm

is6...is + "pet" you plant seeds and grow "hair" on

1:25 pm

some of my favorite people are goats.

1:26 pm

I bet

1:26 pm

I just know a bunch of old goats myself

1:26 pm

Molly, we spent 3 days at Chincoteaque with a quick drive over the bridge to Virginia Beach, then 3 days in the Cambridge area. It was during the costal flooding last week and we had to drive on a flooded road several times. It just added to the adventure!

1:27 pm

help with so7 or ho7 pls

1:27 pm

thx molly

1:27 pm

Sounds like fun Harp.

1:28 pm

i may be one Ru.

1:28 pm

1:28 pm

1:28 pm

nbt

1:28 pm

Awwwww, ty Dear.

1:28 pm

You have more life to you than people half your age

1:29 pm

thanks

1:29 pm

I also rather enjoyed photo ops in front of various closed parks, wearing my Obama T shirt.

1:29 pm

Dee is such a great lady. I love passing her list forward.

1:30 pm

and ty Ru for the italian good byes

1:30 pm

she's amazing at nailing grids without a list

1:30 pm

she must be.

1:30 pm

Yes Harp, kind of an ironic photo shot since he was partially responsible for the shut down.

1:31 pm

Yeah, you could take it as a show of support for the President, or a complaint. Either way it was funny!

1:31 pm

found the so7. help pls with the ho7

1:31 pm

I would have had a cocktail with Boehner at a park Harp.. that would have been more appropriate

1:31 pm

nbt...

1:33 pm

ho7...if you make your throat scratchier, you ho7 it...maybe?

1:33 pm

I'll have a cocktail anywhere.

1:34 pm

ty Molly

1:34 pm

He was kind of busy, ruru. We were in DC the day that they finally voted, at 9:30 p.m. to end the shutdown.

1:34 pm

ty Molly

1:34 pm

yeah for six weeks

1:34 pm

I am stuck on li6/18 and 8?28, any clues please?

1:34 pm

li + sea bird flosey

1:35 pm

thanks ru, looking

1:35 pm

I did learn an important credit/debit card issue when in Canada that all Americans should know about...

1:35 pm

our congress is so god damn dumb

1:35 pm

ooh, do tell, jilly!

1:35 pm

what's that jilly

1:36 pm

ru, we pick them from the low end of the class.

1:36 pm

84 left. I am missing a 7. I have as, ca, cix2,fi,ho,li and so7.

1:36 pm

Cards everywhere but US have microchips in them. More secure than metalic strip

1:36 pm

how does that impact our ability to use them jill?

1:36 pm

yes, true Jilly

1:37 pm

Made my debit card unuseable, and credit card not able to use debit machine

1:37 pm

oh wow..

1:37 pm

oh dear. what did you do?

1:37 pm

We don't travel with a lot of cash, so were running pretty low yesterday

1:37 pm

I've never had a problem Jill.

1:37 pm

I used my debit card all the time last year in Peru.

1:37 pm

that's really good to know.. I'll have to live off of Jilli and Flosey when I show up :D

1:38 pm

lol

1:38 pm

...just kidding flosey...

1:38 pm

any help with my missing 7?

1:39 pm

LOL....really only one major issue, we returned to Vancouver Friday night. We took the newlyweds out for dinner, restaaurant credit card system down and we couldn't pay

1:39 pm

does the ci 8 build off the previous words?

1:40 pm

nm

1:40 pm

But we tehn took them out for drinks at the Fairmont...made up for dinner...drinks are $$$ in Canada!

1:40 pm

gotta go get my phone fixed.. verizon is finally open now.

1:40 pm

nbs

1:40 pm

the ci8 is plural, jane

1:40 pm

<---resisting asking for ci8 clue

1:40 pm

good day Ruru

1:41 pm

You need another CA7, Peri.

1:41 pm

ok, since no help available will go do something else for a while

1:41 pm

looking for the other ci7, have ci 7/36

1:41 pm

1:41 pm

Hi everyone. I've just started so I won't get far

1:41 pm

1:42 pm

bbl

1:42 pm

hi hego

1:42 pm

is there only one ci 7?

1:43 pm

No, Annie dif last letter.

1:43 pm

thanks zooz

1:43 pm

only one ci7, yes.

1:44 pm

That is strange. I have never heard that about cards from any other international traveler.

1:44 pm

are there any ex words?

1:44 pm

two CA7s.

1:44 pm

There is CI7/24 & CI 7/36

1:44 pm

have both ci 7's

1:44 pm

No, Bichon.

1:44 pm

*!* ta da *!* - last word: the social network :(

1:44 pm

ty zooz

1:44 pm

Sorry, I am incorrect as usual.

1:45 pm

We had a call from credit card company when we got home; I did request a chipped card for future use.

1:45 pm

1:45 pm

1:46 pm

Well, we5/22 traveler must head out to start laundry and call her mother...bbl

1:46 pm

by jill - no nap in store?

1:46 pm

Or more like gmail

1:46 pm

Jill, I still don't get what you are referring to. I have never heard of any international travelers having problems with their cards.

1:47 pm

ty again zooz

1:47 pm

I have

1:47 pm

I've never been able to get a "chip and pin" card here that works in Europe

1:47 pm

Many bigger places are aware of issue and scanners can do it both ways, by magnetic strip or chip. The chip makes counterfitting much more difficult

1:48 pm

ours have worked in Europe for the last 6 years

1:48 pm

Henceforth why my credit card would not work in money machine

1:48 pm

at least the chips have - not sure about the scanners

1:48 pm

Our debit card works at a bank. Maybe Canadian banks issue such cards

1:49 pm

swipes work, but not sure about tap and pay

1:49 pm

must really *poof*

1:49 pm

ours have a magnetic strip, chip and a tap sensor

1:49 pm

last sh 5, 6 anyone?

1:50 pm

5, 16 and 6,27

1:50 pm

more bashful and plural

1:51 pm

ty, got them Nan

1:51 pm

how many points are there? Missing one word

1:51 pm

off to make some lunch - back at the flip if I'm still awake

1:51 pm

Sounds strange. I would have thought travel between the US and Canada would be more "user friendly".

1:51 pm

3232

1:52 pm

thank you, so a 5 pointer.

1:52 pm

bye nan

1:52 pm

what letter, paint?

1:52 pm

I still don't understand why US banks wouldn't make chi and pin cards

1:53 pm

does hsbc have branches in the states? -- they probably do

1:54 pm

I just called my credit card companies and while they are national banks, they didn't have it. But we had no problem with our credit and debit cards

1:54 pm

People in the northern States travel across the Canadian border to shop all the time. It seems odd that the card thing would be so prohibitive.

1:54 pm

sorry, had to run out with message for hubby, jilly -if you're still here, we have had so many of our cards compromised - even here on SSI - hubby's was twice - just a nuisance having to wait for new numbers, etc, but the company covered all losses

1:55 pm

before we had chip cards, we opened a euro account with an hsbc Paris branch -- all arranged through out local branch.

1:55 pm

It probably depends on the bank -- visa, mastercard and american express cards shouldn't be a problem.

1:55 pm

It's not like we travel to Europe a whole lot

1:56 pm

did you run into this problem in your area at all nan?

1:56 pm

no we have since closed the account, because we are no longer going as often either and now that our own cards work, it is easier.

1:58 pm

any sign of Lickety?

1:58 pm

cards not working, flosey? - I run into problems with the tap readers sometimes - but it has always been the machine that is faulty and the chip reader or magnetic strip will work.

1:59 pm

No..but Mollly has dee's list in her profile, Erda.

1:59 pm

it was his visa (Royal Bank) that was compromised - Jillibus had problem and some other friends as well

1:59 pm

no erda -- dee and molly have lists in their profiles

1:59 pm

no, it's a theft problem - the banks cover everything, sometimes into 1000's

1:59 pm

where was this, flosey?

1:59 pm

Thank you, zooz and Nan (I was gone for 2 hrs...)

2:00 pm

here on our little island - but elsewhere as well,

2:00 pm

haven't had a problem with theft , though (X crossed fingers X)

2:00 pm

I sent an email to Lickety about the list not updating, but so far, it's still yesterday's list.

2:01 pm

happened when dealing with liquor store, gas stations, etc

2:01 pm

they were not to blame, just perhaps an easier place for someone to scan a card - they have a hand held device that can scan even through a man's wallet

2:02 pm

think we would know if we had a problem -- hubby is an RBC retiree and keeps a pretty close eye on things.

2:02 pm

Think I'd invest in a couple of those metal card cases then.

2:02 pm

I guess these are the complications of using plastic money. I know a lot of people who travel who still rely on traveler's checks.

2:03 pm

oh yes, you'd hear from someone - the numbers where later used out of country

2:03 pm

not everyone will accept travellers cheques anymore -- especially in the states.

2:03 pm

I got an un-scannable wallet years ago.

2:04 pm

interesting Molly - have not heard of them

2:05 pm

Well damn, I guess international travelers are screwed then. Cash is no good, since it has to be exchanged, travelers checks are no good and cards don't work.

2:07 pm

lol doesn't prevent illegal immigrants entering the country

2:08 pm

Do a Google search on credit card security wallets

2:08 pm

I will thanks Molly, hubby could do with a new one

2:08 pm

really must go and produce some lunch -- bye all :)

2:09 pm

bye nan

2:09 pm

Or RFID wallets

2:09 pm

and FW here

2:09 pm

last words were li6 and 7

Congratulations flosey :)

2:10 pm

time to get stuff together and packed, busy 2 days before flight Wednesday

2:14 pm

hello, everyone! clue for the ha6 please--first one

2:16 pm

nm, found it.

2:16 pm

Hardly any reason to clue anymore. : D

2:19 pm

Hi, Molly! thanks for the list! I just finished!

2:23 pm

Well done LBD

2:23 pm

Usually, on days like this, LIckety shows up with a list right about the time everyone is done. Oh well.

2:24 pm

I am back.

2:24 pm

Phan is back! Sound the trumpets!

2:35 pm

sorry dawg i would so not have known it from your clue... lol

2:44 pm

sorry everyone beat me to it.

2:44 pm

how about a clue for the AC 6?

2:45 pm

I would not have gotten it from the definition either.

2:45 pm

more sore

2:46 pm

thank you!

2:46 pm

Probably a competitive word in the nursing homes

2:47 pm

done.

2:47 pm

*Sounds the trumpets for Hursh*

2:47 pm

way to go, Hurshy!

2:52 pm

AR 6/18, either one of them

2:54 pm

The savior is ar6 from the dead

2:57 pm

thank you!

2:57 pm

ar6...short for Mr. Onasis + I am l***ng a lot of weight since I cut back on sweets

2:58 pm

great, thanks!

2:58 pm

and are you really, Molly?

2:59 pm

I have been trying not to use * clues, but that one was impossible.

3:00 pm

No, I'm not on a weight loss thing, just a clue.

3:00 pm

a good one. Thank you.

3:03 pm

clue for the fi5/2o, not the combustible one? thanks!

3:04 pm

that's the only 5/20 I have

3:04 pm

3:05 pm

what's the combustible one?

3:06 pm

thanks.

3:06 pm

3:07 pm

The combustible one is, well, combustible.

3:07 pm

3:08 pm

Unbelievable Redskins game. Where was this team last week?

3:25 pm

WOOHOO!

3:28 pm

GAME OVER!!!!!!!!

3:28 pm

That was fun. I wish the Redskins would play like that more often.

4:07 pm

I'm all the better for knowing I'm not invisible! Lol. I'm good! And you?

5:03 pm

hi all!

5:03 pm

Hello Sue:-)

5:04 pm

OK. Think I am fighting a cold and found a tick on my leg this morning with a nice bulls eye circle. Off to Urgent care I went to get antibiotics.

5:04 pm

hi soodle! Hope all is well with you (or better than it was, anyway)

5:04 pm

ah, good you caught that early, phan!

5:05 pm

yeah. Hope it hasn't been on me that long, but he was engorged...

5:05 pm

so, tiny!

5:06 pm

Well, my dad is still this side of the ground, Sue, which is terrific. He appears to be making progress.

5:06 pm

How did you get the tick, PH?

5:06 pm

oh, that is good, soodle! May it continue to be so!

5:06 pm

sounds like your dad is sick?

5:07 pm

Thanks (((Sue))))

5:08 pm

no idea. I live in an area with a lot of Lyme Disease. Have a dog and 2 cats... Went on a hike on Wednesday....

5:08 pm

He's quite unwell, PH. But improving. Tell me about the tick! I'm intrigued....

5:08 pm

what do you want to know?

5:08 pm

I am sorry he isn't well, but glad he is improving.

5:10 pm

Thank you. I'm (mercifully) unfamiliar with ticks & their carry-on. They seem horrible.

5:10 pm

9:09 pm

Just popped in briefly to ask if anyone knows what has happened to lilliann....I've been asking others but no one answers. I'm a bit worried about her.

i thought a 190's housewife or tippi hedren from rhe birds

make that mid century housewife

9:10 pm

ohhhhh, love the tippi hedren idea - you can pick up cheap little blackbirds at the dollar store!

9:11 pm

haven't seen or heard from lilliann, mimi

9:11 pm

hi mimi - haven't heard anything either

i need to be able to party in it or remove it easily. a nice white shirt would do. barring that, a vintage suit

9:12 pm

I haven't seen her in here for quite a while. Does anyone have her email address?

i am not sure how to affix the birds. all my colleauges were throwing out nice ideas. like i dream of jeannie and a cowgirl

9:13 pm

june cleaver - very innocuous

9:13 pm

i don't, mimi - sorry

9:13 pm

it's not in here profile, sorry.

9:13 pm

It's great being in this community but sad that we sometimes never hear if something is really wrong. I just am really fond of her as I'm sure many others are also.

9:14 pm

hot glue the birds, if you're wearing a disposable outfit

i found the BEST coats for a superfly or boogie nights theme. perfect for a guy. like kramer wearing the amazing techicolor dreamcoat.

9:14 pm

go as a guy, TO

i don't think i could pull it off.

9:14 pm

ohhh, if you can find a tux and spats, go as janelle

9:15 pm

TO, how about going in drag as one of the Blues Brothers?

9:15 pm

you'd have to figure out the hair, but it'd be a breeze for you

i love janelle but these folks are not that hip.

tuy mimi, it;s been done.

9:15 pm

ohhh, everyone's seen her in the car commercials (and now in the makeup commercials)

i'm telling you welki, it will not compute. they dont' dig the arch android.

9:16 pm

lol - there's always dolly parton

i mean, when i mentioned little dead riding hood they just stares.

9:16 pm

9:17 pm

or wonder woman...

9:17 pm

9:19 pm
