1:06 am

hi Rose, back home?

1:07 am

home again, home again, jiggedy jig. * sigh*

sore, but I am moving :)

1:07 am

nice dee. praying for continued improvement, dear

I have a sneaking suspicion I will need more injections, but we'll see. How was your trip?

1:09 am

long drive today. and i have found i really need access to a loo if i am to take the magnesium in the afternoon. otherwise i am coasting. we have both caught up on a lot of sleep.

1:09 am

dee, it is more than likely you will need further injections.i didn't want to mention it earlier.

Wonderful to be able to rest well! The loo issue seems to come with the aging territory, too LOL

1:10 am

*giggling* yeah....

That is what I have heard, too, rose. I'd like to avoid doing it until after Christmas; fingers crossed.

1:11 am

we have played mini gulf for three days in a row. i got sunburnt on the first day. now applying aloe vera as much as i can.

1:11 am

ugh....*golf*

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with the kids. LOL... I always get sunburn, even when I am conscientious about sunscreen. LOL LOL... mini golf is pretty fun

1:12 am

again we have seen some very impressive sights and lots of new things.

lots of photos??

1:13 am

i am so pleased your thanksgiving was so wonderful. if i may, i would like to wish all my american friends a belated happy thanksgiving?

ty, rose... one of my favorite holidays

1:14 am

yes dee, lots of pics. we havent unpacked the camera as yet. but once we do, i will certainly be sharing with you all.

nice

what is your weather like now?

1:15 am

we have only been home a few hours. so nice to be home...

so true; great to have a vacation, but wonderful to get home

1:16 am

oh, dee, it has been spot on for all our holiday. brilliant sunshine and a light breeze everyday. except the 3rd night when the wind and rain were very energetic...lol

got drenched, huh?

1:18 am

and tomorrow we are expecting quite high temps with rain. so humidity will be very high and uncomfortable. no, thank goodness, dee. it was overnight and we were very firmly ensconced in our room...lol

we had some really windy days here - blew one of our topiaries off the front porch.. fortunately didn't damage it or the urn

lol lucky

1:20 am

next vacation may/june/july next year. i don't think europe is ready for us, but as they say in the classics....tough....lol

my last 7 was pu 7/52 gross word

3 month trip??? wow!

1:20 am

you are moving into your winter, right?

yep... we have missed some nasty snowstorms, so maybe this will be a mild winter for us :)

1:22 am

dee, it will prolly be our last and only chance. we are going to make the most of it. 2 years down the track, north america and canada...then i can die happy...

amazing plans; I hope all of the details fall together!!

1:25 am

*giggle* then we will just have to survive....i know it's gonna cost a fortune, but we are both agreed that we are not going to skimp.

in 95 when we visited London and Edinburgh, we went with the same idea...

1:28 am

lol. did you see me the other night when i logged in? i was describing the only room i gave don a free rein in booking.

I missed that

1:31 am

bare bulb from the ceiling, no bedside lamps, double bed, no frig or tv in room. toilet along a corridor, 50 feet away, showers at the opposite end of the building. only good thing...the food was incredible.

oh, wow... bet you hated to go to bed, though

1:32 am

ah rose, the way to a man's heart, eh!

1:32 am

AND i didn't whinge once.

1:32 am

pats on the back for that

wow, good for you, rose... my tongue would be bloody :)

1:33 am

lol, flosey...yup!!

1:34 am

i have told him....no more...these are my minimum requirements....and he agreed.

what food did they serve you?

1:35 am

we have been very fortunate. the food in all 3 towns where we st4ed was sooo good.

that is always a nice surprise.

1:35 am

dee, at that place, we both had a mixed grill, chips and salad. and they gave us a JUG of garlic sauce for the meat.

lol... and mints for your breath after the jug lol

1:37 am

well...we both had the garlic...so not too much of a problem for us...lol

that's good :)

Well, I need to get going. Fireworks finally... not a friendly grid to my brain tonight.

1:40 am

and when we arrived at our last stop...we drove to the bowls club. i joined as a social member....for $5/year. we recouped our money on the first meal...and on the next saved $16 plus. plus the food was amazing.

Saving dollars and having great food is a truly great combo :)

6:27 am

Hi Ruby

6:30 am

hey ruby *hug* How are you doing today? How is Burt?

6:30 am

couldn''t find ur5, even with zzoozz's spoon-fed clue....

6:31 am

hello Sprite. Burt is OK; thanks for asking. How is Ti||?

6:31 am

or even Tim*

6:32 am

Tim is healing up so quickly! He feels good, and looks more or less normal again, just some lingering swelling around the cheekbone and such.

6:32 am

zooz' clue isn't working for me either.

6:33 am

that must be a relief!

6:33 am

yes, am immensely grateful for how it developed. How fragile our lives are!

6:34 am

And he'll stil be handsome!

6:34 am

yeah... a little more rugged, but hey, that is only more appealing, right? :)

6:35 am

:)

6:35 am

ur + first three vowels

6:35 am

transpose the last two letters of zooz cks4

6:35 am

ty molly

6:36 am

and Hello

6:36 am

hey dawg :) Thanks!

6:36 am

hey Molly

6:37 am

ah of course. Blind moment there. Thanks again.

6:37 am

Hi Sprite and Molly

6:38 am

Hello IBD

6:38 am

good morning everyone:)

6:38 am

{{crossy}}

6:38 am

hi crossy

6:38 am

((ruby))

6:39 am

how is lbd this fine winter day?

6:39 am

hey crossy :) *hug* how are you and Mrs Elegant?

6:39 am

((sprite))

6:39 am

We are both doing well, sprite. No lottery win yet, but I am working on it:)

6:40 am

hehehe :) Ain't we all. Results from the doc in yet?

6:42 am

Heard no word, so I am assuming all was more or less as it should be. hear Breathing tests are later this month and her blood work is on Monday. We just have to come to terms with the aches and pains that come with experience;)

6:42 am

I'm trying not to listen to the wind outside. it's almost blizzard conditions out thee

6:42 am

ennervating, that sound, dawg

6:42 am

Check the booze supplies and make sure you have a few candles and some fig newtons and you will be fine , lbd:)

6:43 am

as Haz once said here, crossy... aging is not for the timid :) Glad to hear no big things amiss.

6:43 am

No news is good news as they say:)

6:43 am

I miss Haz very much.

6:43 am

it's mostly the banging of the wind chimes against the house. the thunking and occassional chime.

6:43 am

scary, ibd, I find windstorms, summer or winter, the most unnerving

6:44 am

Hello babblers

6:44 am

we have the same saying in dutch

6:44 am

Ah, the famous words of Bette Davis...age is not for sissies...

6:44 am

hey Annie :) *hug* How are you?

6:44 am

I love a good storm be it winter or summer. So elemental:)

6:44 am

ya think?

6:44 am

Bette Davis was right

6:44 am

{{annie}}

6:45 am

Hugs back, sprite and hi ((ruby))

6:45 am

I like storms when I am outside. But indoors, the sound can become pretty ennervating. Esp when it lasts for days or weeks.

6:45 am

hi annie! Crossy, plenty of food, lights and liquids stored up. I just wish work would call and say they are closing due to weather...that's not going to happen but I can wish it.

6:45 am

I do't mind rain snow or lightning, just don't like wind. We get nasty piercing winds through this valley

6:46 am

Tell them that you are snowed in and take a personal day:)

6:46 am

hi dawg, the sound of the wind can be stressful. I know. I live near the ocean and the wind here is never ending. Wonderful in the summer and spring. Other times, not!

6:46 am

see you later kids

6:47 am

bye ruby!

6:47 am

tc ((ruby))

6:47 am

bye ruby, enjoy the NYT

6:48 am

bye, ruby

6:50 am

fortunately for us, the wind doesn't usually persist. at least we usually can't hear it. I'll get used to it here shortly and then not notice it until I have to go outside.

6:57 am

I remember last year we had storm for weeks on end. We all were so edgy.

7:04 am

back later, *hugs*

7:05 am

bye sprite, have a peaceful evening

7:06 am

When we lived further north I used to love storms;snowed in for a week at a time and life slowing down. The wood stove going and board games and tons of good books, snowshoeing, ice fishing, and home-made soup simmering in a giant pot on the back part of the stove. Bad part was hauling all thet firewood and cleaning the weight of all that snow off the roof:9

7:08 am

When thing got back to normal, it was almost a disappointment to see the power flicker back on ,thouhg it was nice to get power again for the water pump:)

7:13 am

Finally a grid with an e and an s

7:13 am

good morning, bichon

7:14 am

CHi Annie, crossy

7:15 am

I would probably enjoy snow more if all I had to do was sit around in front of a fire and play games and read books. Alas, that nasty "going to work" thing gets in the way. : D

7:16 am

Hi Molly, Do you drive to work?

7:18 am

Yes I do Annie. My son is fortunate enough to live close enough to walk to work, but I drive.

7:19 am

When I worked I drove to work also. I dreaded the snow then.

7:19 am

I think I've learned to drive in snow better, but it's no fun. Having ABS makes me more confident

7:21 am

Well Bich, ABS is nice. But it doesn't keep the other idiot drivers from plowing into you. They are what I get most concerned about. There are people around here who drive around in snow on almost bald tires.

7:21 am

Yes, there's that

7:30 am

I never tarry at 4-way stops for just that reason. All the snow turns into a sheet of ice from the heat coming from the undercarriage of vehicles waiting at stop signs. they plow right into the back of you:(

7:32 am

be back later

7:33 am

lol@ "going to work thing" what is described there was a situation where it is 30 minutes to a paved road.. If you are snowed in like that, work is out of the question:)

7:34 am

Just finding your care is an adventure:)

7:34 am

car

7:35 am

As I recall, a few days later we hired one of the farmers with his big tractor and the giant blower-auger mounted on fron to blow out the lane

7:37 am

Once it was blown out to the nearest concession road, we were free:)

I am making cranberry sauce - letting it reduce down now - we've friends around for dinner for kind of a fake Thanksgiving (though no stuffing - I forgot. And I'm making roast potatoes, not mash. Oh, and it's a chicken, not a turkey...) So actually just a roast chicken dinner but hey, any excuse :)

7:39 am

lol. Love the way you started with a Thanksgiving dinner and ended up with chicken and taters:)))

7:39 am

make some yorkie puds and you will be covered:)

Well, it's too early to get turkey in the supermarket, and our kitchen (and oven) are tiny and there are only five of us...so *shrug*. Hey, at least there's homemade cranberry and apple sauce

7:40 am

We are stuffing lovers in my clan. I sometimes think we could do without the turkey, but not the stuffing.

I am looking for the ey7 and the 0a7 - can anyone steer me?

7:41 am

ey7...add seeing orb to a word that means "similar to"

gotya - thanks!

7:41 am

The oa is (ha ha) similar to that

And I've got the oa now as well.

Made up words, I'm sure - thanks Molly!

7:43 am

Yes, but think of the words YOU could make up. Having a bad day? This is a very sh7 day. : D

7:43 am

Oops that would be sh8

I like your thinking

Note to self - don't leave glasses on when stirring hot cranberry sauce

7:56 am

For the first time, I made my own cranberry sauce. I zested an orange skin into it and it was very good. I didnt realize it was so easy and so much better than the canned sauce.

Here it comes in jars and is more like a jam than a sauce - mine you can eat on its own it's yummy

7:57 am

happy chicken day, matty

7:57 am

I make my own every year. With Splenda for me and with sugar for everyone els. Just gotta remember to keep on stirring

7:58 am

I love homemade cranberry sauce. I make mine just like Annie does.

7:59 am

Im going to finished washing kitchen floor.

I used cranberries (fresh), apples, golden caster sugar, cinnamon, a bit of nutmeg and a pinch of allspice. I shall be making homemade mulled wine later

7:59 am

There's supposed to be a glut of cranberries this year from Wisconsin.

I've no idea where mine were imported from. I shall look...

8:00 am

I always think of them coming from Cape Cod, but I guessthat's no more

8:01 am

Really? You're going to stomp the grapes and everything? : D

8:02 am

Cranberries can grow anywheree there's a bog

8:02 am

I love lucy

Imported from the USA. Molly, not quite that far, butI use this recipe. http://tiny.cc/noa3px

8:05 am

i am sitting in my recliner in my camper looking out my big picture window at the campground lake...this is thanks

8:05 am

Still a lot of cranberries grown in Cape Cod

8:07 am

what is golden caster sugar Matty, brown sugar?

it's sugar that puts exactly the right actors in a movie to make a big hit

Nope - only partly refined caster sugar (caster sugar is sugar ground a bit more finely than granulated sugar - our granulated sugar is ground more coarsely than American sugar)

8:09 am

powdered sugar?

No, not as fine as that. Similar to American ordinary sugar

8:10 am

If you have ever used super fine sugar, castor sugar is similar (there is that word again)

LOL joseph!

oh good i thought my joke was going to waste

8:15 am

i thought you were adding to my remark lol

8:21 am

Lots of jokes go to waste here

maybe we need to start a save-the-jokes fund

with an ice bucket challenge

8:23 am

Oh please no. The ice bucket challenge needs to go away.

but its for the JOKES, molly!

i just put in pu7 for a joek to o and i cant believe it worked

8:26 am

I have to applaud whoever came up with the ice bucket idea though. Who knew you could convince so many people to look like idiots, dumping a bucket of ice over their heads. And then film it and share it on YouTube.

i believe it was a young fellow in australia

8:27 am

The really funny thing is, the original idea was "donate money OR dump a bucket of ice over your head". Then everyone donated money AND did the ice thing.

sitting down for five minutes - chicken rubbed (I can't bugger it - i.e. beer can chicken as I don't have enough room in the oven). Next task, peel potatoes, sweet potatoes and carrots, parboil the potatoes, then mulled wine

Depends on which jurisdiction you're in

9:32 am

Lind shame on you! lol

Sorry Mlfan, I will try to fit more in then, just for you!

9:33 am

9:37 am

9:38 am

Punk jazz...would that be Iggy Coltrane?

9:39 am

Thelonious Punk

9:40 am

The Sax Pistols

Hahahah I have seen the Sex Pistols live too!

9:40 am

LOl good one

9:41 am

good morning friends

Hi Trif

9:41 am

hi trif

9:42 am

I seem to have woken up profoundly stupid today - oh dear. hoping it burns off as a fog does...

9:42 am

are you okay trif?

9:44 am

I guess so - just stupid

9:44 am

stupid why?

9:45 am

cant find a word that is right in front of me, let the dog out and then forget I had done so, thatsort of thing

9:45 am

I think pearil should be a word.. the holidays are dangerous for fruit

Well lovely catching up with you all, gotta go now. Bye xx

9:46 am

tha would be peril

9:46 am

okay i am out of here i may be back going to go eat now

9:46 am

Yes, especially due to all the fruitcakes. (I got the pearil joke)

9:46 am

Bye lindy

9:48 am

heres something fun - someone showed me a photo secondo posted late last night - apparently she got a tattoo. she's still sleeping right now, and I am fighting the urge to go peep at her

9:49 am

Teenage girls generally frown on their mothers peeping at them while they are sleeping

9:49 am

that is the only thing holding me back, molly

9:51 am

Facebook is the end of privacy for young adults everywhere

9:51 am

it was instagram, actually

9:51 am

Ah, I should have been more generic and said photo sharing.

9:52 am

its all good. tattoos are NOT my thing, at all, but it's not my body it's on, so I will smile and be supportive, and that's it. if she was looking for me to have a fit, she will have to look elsewhere

9:53 am

How are you on body piercing trif?

9:54 am

I have two holes in one ear, one hole in another, and that is all I will be getting. What other people do is there business. I don't like the visual of those giant gauge things the young ones put in their ears - those really gross me out

9:57 am

how are you on piercing, ruru?

10:00 am

Morning, everyone! I have two piercings in each ear. The second set came about when my daughter wanted to get hers pierced for the first time but was afraid so I went first to show her it was no big deal.

10:01 am

She and I were supposed to get matching tats but she went ahead without me and I have no desire to get one now...though that may change...one never knows.

10:05 am

If you guys like Bob Seger and have cable with CMT, you should check out the Crossroads show he did with Jason Aldean today (noon my time). It's FABULOUS.

10:06 am

There is no image that I like so much that I want it inked on my body permanently.

10:06 am

that is pretty much how I feel about it, Molly - I change my mind too often

10:08 am

My daughter loves Egyptian history so she got a very tasteful ankh on her hip.

10:08 am

I'd be worried that with time it would change in appearance and turn into something oddly wrinkly.

10:09 am

I really don't understand the tramp stamps, but they seem to be popular in certain circles

10:09 am

see, that to me makes sense, mimi....but I dont have anything like that in my life

10:09 am

Bad enough that I'll get wrinkly...don't need an ugly tat as well!

10:09 am

i think I need a turkey sandwich....

10:10 am

Or worse, a wrinkled tattoo

10:10 am

LOL

10:10 am

Might be amusing seeing the tat change with time, though...

10:11 am

Hey there, zooz1

10:11 am

That was supposed to be a !

10:11 am

Now I'm imagining a nursing home in 50 years with hallways full of wrinkled tattooed people in wheelchairs

10:11 am

that is the future, molly

10:11 am

Hi there, Mimi :-)

10:12 am

Yes...my mind is conjuring a pretty weird image, too, Molly. But, then, that's nothing new!

10:12 am

And just wait until all those breast implants start heading south!!!

10:13 am

Not sure why people get those tongue piercings either.

10:13 am

And kids at the playground talking about "Grandma's tattoo"

10:13 am

That is why I aughed, Mimi. Here a slang word for breasts is tats!

10:13 am

imagine all the lovely ladies, picking up their boobies and squishing them into all sorts of interesting shapes - "see? its a rose! no, look this way!"

10:13 am

and Grandma's lip piercing, good role model

10:14 am

Zooz..I hear those are done as a functional thing regarding sex but can't imagine experiencing the pain of piercing the tongue for ANY reason.

10:15 am

Funny, zooz...language can be tricky!

10:16 am

I can just picture (unfortunately) old women getting their walkers jacked up to help support their gravity-challenged breasts. Not a good visual.

10:20 am

Gotta slap these images outta my head and get to work. Good Saturday and hugs all around.

10:20 am

So Zoom, people don't say "tats" for tattoos in the UK? That's good. I'm not big on any abbreviations, but that is one that I like the least.

10:23 am

I am not sure, Molly.Depends what part of the UK I suppose.Not around here is tattoo referred to as tats.

10:33 am

I've never actually heard of tats meaning anything other than tattoos

10:36 am

In some parts here it is also used for a meaning of potato.

10:37 am

As well as taters.

10:37 am

I've heard of tats and tatties being used in the same way as tits and titties.

10:37 am

oh, that I have heard, though I don't actually know anyone who calls potatoes tats

10:38 am

then again, I can't say that tits are a subject I ever talk about lol

10:42 am

Buggie, do you live near ruby who Babbles.

10:42 am

I think she lives in Anecy

10:42 am

nope, other side of the country

10:50 am

Ruby Who Babbles...sounds like Anne Of Green Gables...

11:08 am

good morning all. I know there is an ey7 and pu7 but I do not see either of them. I only have pu7

11:08 am

actually it is afternoon here but I got up late so it still feels like morning to me

11:15 am

peri -- since you have pu7, substitute the first 3 letters with the organ you see with

11:38 am

are there two PU 7s?

11:40 am

nm - found the second PU 7

12:13 pm

I don't get your clue, Erda

12:14 pm

but I am looking

12:14 pm

Peri, it depends on which pu7 you have. The other pu7 is what the heart does as it beats.

12:14 pm

I had the other pu7

12:15 pm

Erda's clue means what you see with + a word that means "similar"

12:15 pm

that one I found

12:15 pm

I need help with the other pu7

12:15 pm

pls

12:15 pm

The other pu7 follows suit, an oozy substance around an infected wound + same word

12:16 pm

12:21 pm

Hi Nan

12:23 pm

greetings may I pls have a clue for lone I 4th column

12:23 pm

il4

12:23 pm

tyvm molly

12:26 pm

grrrrr I so hate the use of t instead of ed as a pt

did we decide on whether the word CL4 gets a PB pass?

12:26 pm

don't think we are worried about calling penalties at all, kap

what a laid back group.

12:29 pm

I've never thought of the PB as a "penalty". More of a gentle reminder not to post grid words in the chat. The PB has always been made out to be a fun place.

Didn't say it wasn't fun. Just a custom.

12:31 pm

However, a wink is as good as a nod. So posting "could I have a cl4 for the st7" is just as good as posting "clue" in the chat.

Ahhhhhhhhh.

12:32 pm

Love the LBJ icon, Kap.

12:32 pm

yes, but it has always been called the penalty box where you are "penalized" for posting a word in the chat -- always in fun of course

Like saying " second vowelr, squiggly letter x2, round letter."

A gas station.

12:33 pm

Maybe we should start calling it the Time Out Box : D

12:33 pm

hello

PB is find.

fine.

12:35 pm

since when does the first li 4/5 have a plural form?

12:36 pm

grrr - and there is that t being used as pt instead of the ed again --- like fingernails on a blackboard

12:36 pm

Oh Nan, "since when" starts a sentence about so many words in these grids.

12:37 pm

guess I should head for the pb ;-)

12:38 pm

I thought tat was what you do to make lace

12:38 pm

with the tiny needles you keep in your et4

12:38 pm

right on, ruby

12:39 pm

*** important notice ***** there is no room in the building for a TIME OUT box when we already have a PB and the other rooms to deal with.

12:39 pm

notice noted

12:40 pm

Dr G isn't going to spring for a time out box anyway

12:40 pm

we're on our own :D

12:40 pm

looking for a soap box, ru?

12:41 pm

I'm always on a soap box nan

12:41 pm

1:13 pm

1:20 pm

I wish Cousins was Healthy

1:20 pm

ruru he needs confidence and more time to practice

1:20 pm

1:21 pm

his footwork is horrible

1:21 pm

ruru i like him too and i actually do like thei back up as well though i know he isnt that good. That game wont be airing here tomorrow unfortunately

1:21 pm

He's the new Ryan Leaf if he doesn't actually put work in and get better

1:22 pm

rg needs to go to another team let his backup get better at playing

1:25 pm

i juswt hope gruden doesnt get fired or leaves if something is done with/about rg3

1:26 pm

2:46 pm

2:46 pm

i've alwasys been fond of goldies

2:47 pm

me too. I'm partial to goldens, Labs, German Shepards as a rule

2:48 pm

ty!

3:01 pm

big but not too big?

3:02 pm

I also like Australian Shepards, Pugs, and King Charles Cavaliers for the smaller dogs

3:02 pm

Big but not too big describes me well

3:02 pm

:D

3:03 pm

heh. and your tastes too, apparently

3:05 pm

I love the looks of Great Danes.. but could never had a dog that passes that young.. too heartbreaking

3:06 pm

Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everyone doing today?

3:06 pm

HI minver

3:06 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!

3:06 pm

Hope you had a nice holiday minver

3:06 pm

hi min...fine here, thanks...

3:07 pm

yeah, but they're a lot of dog for the time you've got 'em.

3:07 pm

same argument could be made against keeping rodents as pets; gone too soon.

3:07 pm

My neighbors have some beautiful greyhounds that were rescues.. they're really beautiful dogs

3:08 pm

Hello rururocks!I had a great Thanksgiving in Connecticut.

3:08 pm

I would never have a rodent as a pet.. there are too many I associate with in the wine biz as it is :D

3:08 pm

oh.. nice minver

3:09 pm

116 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels got rescued from puppy mill in Alabama last week.I'm so glad they all got rescued.

3:09 pm

did you have to travel far to get to your Thanksgiving dinner, min?

3:09 pm

I wish the AKC would get really involved in closing down puppy mills.. it is deplorable

3:10 pm

My sister-in-law lives about 25 minutes from me,so not too far. It was nice not to have to travel far.I hope you all had an awesome Thanksgiving with your families this year.

3:11 pm

I did.. I had a fantastic day with my Brother's family

3:12 pm

I so agree with you rururocks!I do not see how they can be legal. Saw an article about this puppy mill and it made me sick to my stomach! I don't understand mentality of some!

3:12 pm

my holiday dinner was great....only 1.5 hours of travel (strategically planned to avoid the storm)....the boys each made a pie....all were yummy!

3:13 pm

This is the article I read: http://michigancavaliers.com/Blog/dog\ncare,cavaliers/terri-easterbrooks-crue\nlty

3:14 pm

Darn it! I messed up the chat log.Sorry about that everyone!

3:14 pm

When we had a litter of pups.. we had some potential homes where the people had previously gotten a pup from a puppy mill. just horrible stories

3:15 pm

these puppy mill owners should see jail time.. in small cages

3:16 pm

I sent some wine back for the holiday for my friends in Long Island and UPS didn't deliver in time.. they got the wine Friday instead

3:17 pm

Puppies were auctioned off. I hope the puppy mill owner did not make money off of auction to enable her to continue her so-called business.

3:18 pm

You should ask for you money back from UPS rururocks.That is not right

3:18 pm

I am sure your friends will still enjoy their wine though. It's the thought that counts.

3:18 pm

I'm not in favor of auctioning off puppies.. not the way to place them in good homes.

3:19 pm

Well supposedly, a Cavalier rescue group bought all the puppies at the auction. They got money from donations around the country.

3:20 pm

that's good news. I hope the puppies are healthy.. generally from Puppy mills they are not

3:20 pm

I did not donate because I was afraid money would go back to the owner of the puppy mill. However, I found out later it did not happen.

3:21 pm

If you see an add in the paper for AKC Puppies 10 out of 10 times it is a puppy mill

3:21 pm

Now I wish I HAD donated, but you never really know where your money is going when you make donations like that.

3:21 pm

you can always donate to the rescue directly

3:22 pm

you can donate to the Cavalier group if you want minver

3:25 pm

You can donate wine to me if you want Ru...

3:26 pm

Min, remember to use tinyurl.com

3:26 pm

ah.. wish I could soodle

3:26 pm

I can't ship vino out of the country apparently with the licenses I have

3:27 pm

Sorry, no wine in November. Dry month and all that.

3:27 pm

how was your wine molly?

3:27 pm

:-) the horror that is November is drawing to a close :-)

3:27 pm

how much hassle to get the appropriate licenses?

3:27 pm

Sorry, no sympathy.

3:28 pm

Self-imposed horror.

3:28 pm

The end is nigh...

3:28 pm

Never opened the wine I bought. Saving it for Christmas.

3:28 pm

they are fairly costly jes

3:29 pm

oh.. maybe with some crab then

3:29 pm

I got a bottle of aged calvados for Xmas .. showed up yesterday

3:29 pm

just in time for winter

3:30 pm

No, it will just go home with one of my kids. Need to get something red to go with beef tenderloin.

3:30 pm

Yes, I got an email asking for donation to the rescue group, but I didn't know if the rescue group would then spend money at auction given by this puppy mill owner. Once again, this lady did not get a dime of it.

3:30 pm

oh..that's easy

3:31 pm

I guess it is No Wine November along with No Shave November?

3:32 pm

I do not know how to post link using tinyurl MollyL. I am so sorry about that! Thank you rururocks for fixing the chog!

3:34 pm

Lol Min. I abstain from alcohol in November. I find it alarmingly difficult!

3:34 pm

Guess I should have been the one to do that since I messed up the chog.Must remember to NOT post links in the chog.

3:34 pm

god if there ever is a month to drink it is November and December

3:35 pm

it's okay minver.. happens all the time

3:35 pm

Maybe the best time to not drink any alcohol is during lent

3:35 pm

Well, if Dr. God would fix the chat log, then you could post regular links here. But since they don't work, and blow the chat log, tiny url is better. All you have to do is go to tinyurl.com and paste and convert your link.

Well done Soodle. I tried for sober October - lasted 3 days

3:36 pm

I like to get bent on lent

3:36 pm

Ooh. I'll make up for it in December, Ru, secure in the knowledge that if I can forego it for a month, I'm not alcohol dependant.

3:36 pm

Oh wow,that sounds easy MollyL. Will remember that one.

3:36 pm

(nods head)

3:37 pm

La la la *sings about delusional thinking*

3:37 pm

That is a great one - Sober October. I love it!

We were in a noisy hotel so had a brandy to aid sleep :)

3:37 pm

Hi Chrissie :-)

3:37 pm

followed by can't remember december

lol

3:38 pm

Hello ChrissieDee! How are you doing? Welcome to the log

Hi all

3:38 pm

gm chrissie

3:40 pm

How are the folks in China, Chrissie?

3:41 pm

Hi, my name is Soodle and I'm not alcohol dependent. I go for a whole month without alcohol. Let us not discuss the other months. Keep coming back and it works if you work it.

3:42 pm

*watches soodles first twelve steps*

Good thanks Soodle. We're having lots of face time.

3:43 pm

Soodle sings "The Twelve Steps Of Christmas" on December first.

3:44 pm

Good, Chrissie. Note to self. .. Avoid alcohol related conversations November 22015

Ay least you didn't do Movember Soodle, lol

3:46 pm

Note to self: If you live as long as 22015, remember to chat about drinking tea and saintly behavior.

3:47 pm

gives a new meaning to the New Centurions

3:49 pm

tries to imagine soodle at a thousand years old

3:49 pm

She will be sober, one month of the year.

3:49 pm

Maybe 1,050

3:50 pm

You see? Alcohol withdrawal made my hand shake. God above, will this wretched month ever be over?

3:50 pm

I could use a sober month myself :D

3:50 pm

*Closes the bar in the PB*

3:51 pm

what about the time out room.. is there a bar in there?

3:51 pm

I'd say we could all meet at coffee shops, but we know how that goes.

3:51 pm

HA...lol

3:51 pm

It's self mortification Ru. If your not Catholic, don't bother. Seriously.

3:51 pm

Ya gotta find them first LOL

3:54 pm

I am soooo far from Catholic.. soodle.. I don't even know where to start

3:54 pm

Firewords!

3:55 pm

Once I got one of the last three 7s, the rest fell right into place. :)

3:55 pm

Well done, redshoes!

3:57 pm

Don't want to start World War 3 about religion, but I don't think God is interested in self-mortification. Not if you believe in a loving God anyway.

4:00 pm

I am often mortified around here but i am guessing that is nit the same thing

4:00 pm

Not

4:01 pm

Nothing at all to do with God Molls. Just a gesture by me that I can forego stuff I am fond of. (Wine!). The only possible losers are the wine retailers, and they know that normal business will resume in December. No harm to anybody.

4:02 pm

Well i am abstaining from sex...

4:03 pm

That's fine Soodle. I have just never understood the Catholic thing about giving up what you like (LENT). To me that is not what faith is about.

4:04 pm

WOMEN OF CALIFORNIA.. I FEEL YOUR PAIN

4:04 pm

Ha lololol

4:05 pm

Back to happy, superfluous chat...

4:06 pm

Hey. It matters not a whit to God or Dog or whoever the Supreme being is

4:07 pm

That a housewife in Co. Meath drinks no wine in November.

4:08 pm

Then why say "it's a Catholic thing"?

4:08 pm

I feel better for it!

4:09 pm

Traditionally, catholics gave up stuff for Lent & for November. Its ingrained.

4:13 pm

Omg! I seem to have got the last word! I'll scuttle off to bed now before anybody else challenges me. Smugly poofing!!

4:14 pm

Well, I wasn't trying to be a pain in the ass. I just don't understand people who link "self-mortification" to religion. It sounds too Opus Dei to me.

4:16 pm

And I was a practicing Catholic for a long time and never heard anything about giving up stuff in November.

4:27 pm

neither have i....it's not Lent...

4:34 pm

Oh well, sorry this turned into a "last word" thing. I was hoping to get some clarity on it.

4:35 pm

perhaps it's an irish thing...never heard of that in my 12 years of Catholic school....

4:38 pm

I just wonder how many points superfluous would be

4:39 pm

isn't lent around easter?

4:40 pm

144 pts

4:42 pm

yes, ru....leads up to easter...

hi all, and i was not reaised catholicm butm, yeah, lent is the season just before easter, and it lasts 6 weeks or 40 days

4:45 pm

mardi gras is basically loading up before lent and ash wednesday starts lent

4:46 pm

Thanks Book Doctor. Being raised Catholic, I know about when Lent is. I think Pen does too. : D

8-D

4:47 pm

Oh never mind, I missed Ru's question. Carry on.

of course, if you *want* to give something up, you can do it whenever, you sure don't have to wait for lent or anything

i recently gave up buying any brand owned by he Kock brothers

4:48 pm

Koch brothers?

yeah, those guys

4:49 pm

what did they do?

they own a lot of brands, you might be surprised. holy cow, you don't know about the Kock brothers?

4:50 pm

not really.. just in passing through the news. I don't know much about them either way

4:51 pm

never heard of them...

there's a good short overview here: http://tinyurl.com/mjeafac

4:55 pm

hi all. any 7 letter words?

4:55 pm

Ru, you need to bone up on liberal postulation.

i need the A, top row, middle tile for nbt

4:56 pm

4:56 pm

well... anything related to the John Birch society isn't something I'd support either

4:56 pm

mkg- i have three do you need clues or stats?

4:57 pm

both clues and stats please. ty.

our corrupt supreme court ruled that private money can be used, unlimited and unsourced, in campaigns. this is undemocratic. Kock brothers are spending a good deal of the dirty money that is killing our democracy

ty penquis, hunting

5:03 pm

5:03 pm

its a suffix meaning similar to

5:03 pm

i was referring to the ending of the word

5:05 pm

ok got the ey and oa. both end with same 4 letter word. opposite of to hate is to love. but if you dont quite love someone you still can **** them. to **** a lot is to love.

5:05 pm

5:09 pm

5:11 pm

5:11 pm

sry ur5/15

5:11 pm

5/12 keep making mistakes today

5:12 pm

never mind, got the i word.

5:12 pm

tea part is the ultra right of the republican party. at this point i think the republicans are afraid of them.

we don't know how much they are giving to the Reps because these new laws allow secret giving

i'm still not finding the as6. can someone clue the point value ONLY ??

5:14 pm

bunch of bullies and crybabies if you ask me (the righties, i mean)

5:17 pm

I'll give you bullies, but crybabies? I see that on both sides.

the dems have never shut down the gubmint just to get what they want. that's the way bullies and crybabies behave

5:19 pm

Well, I will quit while I'm ahead. This would be a pointless conversation.

5:20 pm

can someone clue the as6?

as6/21, rhymes with what you have at the bottom of your leg (sort of)

5:21 pm

as + one who is given individual instructional help minus the last letter...

5:25 pm

need to come back later with a clear head. just not getting it…

5:26 pm

as + rhymes with noise a horn makes...

5:35 pm

Here is the laugh of the day...someone on eBay thinks they can get $4,500 for a Precious Moments figurine. Ahahahahahaha!!!!

as6 also rhymes with an lu4 (musical instrument)

5:36 pm

how did i not get that earlier?

5:36 pm

got it ty

sounds like a Mega Lister!

5:36 pm

a figurine full of coke, maybe...

5:36 pm

nbs/nbt

oh, good, nik, i was running out of ideas for clues LOL

5:37 pm

a few weeks ago someone bought a picture of an iPhone for around 200 dollars

5:37 pm

on ebay

i have a freidn who started a facebook page to post outrageous offerings of used books, but i have no problem posting a precious moments there . . .

(the facebook page is called "Most Unwanted Megalisters")

now to hunt down the outrageous precious moments . . .

hmmm, i found a lot of 350 precious moments for $4500 . . .

5:49 pm

Something I got in email. I didn't actually go to eBay to look for it.

maybe it's already been taken down

5:56 pm

Molly is a closet precious moments collector.

puerile is my new phantom

6:01 pm
