SO 6/30 is porridge made from oat bran or husks that have been soaked in water, slightly fermented, and then boiled.
Hi zooz. No idea what that is!
Hi there, zooz.

Excellent news, Ruby, keep it up!
Nice one.
Hope you are keeping warm too, Ruby.

Join the club me too!
synes
Nuts are good. Love nuts.
sorry
Bless you! lol
There is no plural of that word, Ruby lol
and New Year is coming
Another year nearly over and another wrinkle added to my wrinkling face.
Will be pleased t see the back of this year!
Since I can't stand meat now, said by the former carnivore, I'm loading up on dry fruit, nuts and cheese. Also, does anybody know if whey is beneficial?
It will not be long before people will be thinking of buying me crack filler paste for a present lol
I think this may have been the worst year, ever
I really don't know ruby
I have had a bad one. It's been one thing after another for me.
Well whey is a good source of protein mostly used by body builders.
The problem with drinking whey is that it gives me Miss Muffet as an ear worm
((Ruby)) ((Medusa))
Okay not sure what that means?
Thanks zooz.
This gaunt body could sure use some building. I look like I've already died, just haven't Fallen over yet
ne6/3 please
ne6/33
Well I am about 8 and a half stone dripping wet if that makes you feel any better, Ruby!

Rose you missed , Sprite, yesterday by a whisker.
You must have passed her in the doorway rose it was that close!
Although on the positive side, Sprite, did say she will email you that day :-)
I think, Rose, has gone squirrel again lol
lol zooz.
are we the breakfast club?
It does look like it. I have not had mine yet. Woke up late. lol
I think most of our American friends are still asleep, Ruby, or just about waking up around now.
It's my favorite meal
The dogs Wake me up early, but I let them out and go back to sleep
I normally have a few honey sandwiches and a cup of tea for breakfast.
I do that sometimes. lol
I have a coffee then sit for a while before I eat.
time for me to go to bed. very early start to tomorrow. xoxox
Sweet dreams rose. xx
French people don't eat much breafast, mostly coffee and a cigarette
Sweet sleeps, Rose.
bye rosie, sweet dreams
I quit smoking ruby but the coffee stays. Got to have something to look forward to in the mornings. lol
What no pan au chocolat!!
Good going on the quitting the smokes, Medusa!
Thanks. Been about 5 years now.
Only for visitors, it requires going to the boulangerie!
Down to 10 words.
down to 56! lol
lol
And fw
Congrats, Medusa!
Thanks.
Does anyone need help before I go?
Not for me thanks but thank you none the less :-)
another cup of coffee would be nice....
Welcome zooz.
What about you ruby?
Will get the kettle on. lol
haha
I had said "yay, smart medusa3 but it got lost in the word box... I am hopeless on the laptop
See you tomorrow. Thanks anyway ruby
*poof*
((medusa))
Not sure if it is you, Ruby. I often write things in the chat log and it does not turn up.
Have a great day, Medusa!
but you are a computer-adept, zzoozz, maybe it's a question of age lol
Crossy is the computer wiz.
I'm hopeless, can't even figure out how to take vidpups on my little cameraeos of the
and a garble the chat by toucing something invisible
annoying, but not grave
Well if I do not know how to do something or if somethng is not working I always google it. And someone has sure to had the same problem and gives advice on how to go about it.
Maybe you are touching the touchpad with part of your hand and it is moving the cursor as you go to type.
you are more patient than I!!
Well I would rather find out a solution than keep getting annoyed to be honest lol
I guess I'd rather whine lol
No I think you probably think you will not understand how to rectify the computer related problem as you think it will be to complicated to understand? maybe? Just guessing here lol
lazy nel, just marking time 'til next dr's appt on Wed
It is such a pleasure uust sitting here in front of the fire
and the sun has come out, so the house will be warm in the afternoon
I am glad you are keeping warm, Ruby. i love that nice cosy warm feeling you get in front of a real fire!
Not know that feeling for many many years now lol
Known*
And it's so beautiful here as I can see the lake and all, just from this cosy spot. I shouldn't complain
Sounds devine, Ruby! Just relax and enjoy!
Now, if I just get some good news.....
I am sure it will come, Ruby.
fingers crossed, touching wood and praying....
wosh- a smaller woosh sound.
I'm actually terrified
Of course you are, Ruby. But just do your best to stay positive as positive thoughts are way better than negative thoughts.
I know, but it's hard to stay positive. You help me a lot, you know
That is because we babblers care, Ruby, and in some ways can relate to how you feel.
True and this feels like a totally safe place
And each of us has had his share of problems
It is a great place I feel. there normally is always someone here. Okay a lot of time people are sitting in the background getting on with the game.But I have noticed on many occassions when someone types in the chat something bad that has happened to either them or another person babblers know many people will chip iinto the chat and give some kind of comfort and support.
It is a great place that is for sure.
Time for a hot bath. Thank you for your kind ear, ((zzoozz))
http://tinyurl.com/ogk2yx6
For you, Ruby.
stoking the fire so it will still be alight when I descend!
More than welcome, Ruby. Tkae care.
Take*
good morning all
Hello, Sprite :-)
will check that out right after
hope you are well?
hi zooz :) *hugs* How are you today, dear man? And how are the parents?
hi and bye, sprite, zooz has been my therapist for the past hours
*hugs ruby* Yay for zooz :)
All well here thanks, Sprite. Mother might have to have her gallbladder removed if she continues to get pain she is getting so of course she is not a happy bunny.
I am fine. Just tired, is all. I slept an obscene amount of hours this night.
ouch, that is a nasty pain. And not a fun operation.
Well you must of needed it otherwise you would not of slept that long lol
Zoom is a good soul and he is very kind to others.
I couldn't agree more, Molly
((Molly))
yeah I needed it, lol. Am not ashamed.
Rose sends her love to you and lots of hugs too! (((((()))))) these are from Rose lol
Next time Ruby is around, suggest that she look up the users guide for her camera on line. Most all of them are available on line and it will show her how to use the video option. However the tricky part is getting them from camera to computer.
aw thanks zooz! Am so sorry to have missed her again.
Those kind of things are so much easier to show someone than they are to explain "how to" in a chat forum.
I will, Molly, very good idea!
I did tell her that you both missed each other by a whisker yesterday and that you had sent her an email (hope you did not mind) but I am not sure she got the message as she said goodnight a while after.
our rose might have been distracted by a squirrel, grin. Thanks for telling her.
haha I did mention that at the time!
oh that reminds me, I need to do some needlepoint... I have something squirrelly for her.
If I get a move on, I might get it to her before Xmas still.
I think, Rose, will love that!
yeah I think so too. At the very least it will be good for a laugh.
It will be a reminder for her when she looks at it that you are on the other side of the screen LOL
lolollll
Sorry, Sprite but I am leaving now unless there is anything I can help you with before I go?
I am good, thanks zooz. No need for sorry! Have a lovely Sunday there. *hugs*
You too Hugs back :-)
Hi all. Had to jump out of lurk mode when Zoom mentioned gall bladder. There is a cheap and natural cure for gallstones, called chanca piedra, readily available online. Two capsules will dissolve stuck gallstones in 20 minutes. This has been keeping me going for more than 10 years.
wow thanks Sam. Shall I send your post to zooz by email?
Please do. I hate to see anyone go under the knife unnecessarily.
Chanca piedra also works for kidney/bladder stones, BTW.
great to know. I have passed on your message to him.
Good morning all.
hiya sukee :) How are you today?
Doing great. How about you?
am fine. Slept from 8 pm till noon the next day. Feeling lots better now, lol.
Sleep is good.
I am 100% FOR herbal remedies. However, you should always consult your doctor before taking them to make sure they do not negatively interact with any medications you take or conditions you may have. Better safe than sorry.
Had a friend visit yesterday, had Chinese food and wine.
I used to dislike sleeping, and went with as few hours as possible. I have definitely changed my tune, lol.
I agree Molly, I also ask my pharmacist when I have questions.
No matter how hard I try, I wake up around 5:30 each day.
I just had a look on WebMD - I'm glad it's been working for you Sam, though the evidence is inconclusive at best as to its efficacy - http://goo.gl/yAUGWk
Bear in mind, though, that very few physicians know diddly about herbs and will always err on the side of pharma drugs.
yes that is true, Molly. I remember using a st john's wort remedy. When the doctor gave me antidepressants later, I had to stop the hypericum right away.
There is never good evidence of the efficacy of herbal remedies, because no one will invest the money to study something that can't be patented.
I think it is important to check if there can be any negative combinations with the current meds. If not, it is worth a try.
I passed chanca piedra on to two other people with severe kidney stones, and they were cured immediately. Whenever I have the first pangs of a gallstone attack, I swallow two caps and it is gone. This is all i can tell you.
if there is even a small chance that it will render an operation unnecessary, I think it is very much worth trying.
I agree Sam, physicians tend to "poo poo" herbal treatment. As long as there is no evidence it will complicate any condition you have or medication you already take, I say go for it. That kind of medical treatment has been around and working for centuries.
fireflies. *hugs* and have a grand day, all of you.
wtg
good morning, everyone!
Sam, I told a friend about chanca piedra who constantly had kidney stones and, she, too, never got one while she was taking it. She ran out and delayed getting more and, boom, another kidney stone.
This herb has been in use in the Amazon for a very long time.
tadone! fun grid
fa 7/40 clue please
a rude word for overweight people
faith
SORRY!!!
tx matty LOL
Anyone have that pesky wh6/7 combination (I'm assuming it's a combo?
NM< found it
Weird words
Totally lost on last three - fa 7/40; ha 5/18 and sh 7/40 all clues gratefully received
SH7 - the state of being an extreme introvert
fa7 - a mean word for loads of overweight people (it's a plural)
There are two ha5/18s - both weird words - one sounds like a small, poor girl (like the little matchseller) but starting with H...
Um...the other has a double vowel - a vowel that is seldom doubled
Fireworks for me! Christmas tree shopping beckons - have a great day, everyone
Good morning!
hey car :-)
Hi Une!
35 to go and taking a coffee break -- back in a bit :-)
HAGD
Hi Car, I have been lurking.
Hello! How was your day yesterday?
We had a nice hike then went to an adoption celebration for a patient of mine. He is 2.5 years old and so lucky as are his parents.
Oh wonderful! It sounded like you had a lovely day planned!
We hiked at a 700 acre farm that a wealthy family donated to the state 10 years ago. It is a popular place for walking, hiking, and there is a dog park.
wow!
It is so serene--so many different areas to see--wooded areas, some paved roads, some dirt roads, some ponds, and horses are allowed so we saw people riding horses.
Lovely!
Okay, why do words like doeth and doest exist in the freaking weird Enable Word List but not goeth? Did those guys only read PARTS of The Bible?
Sorry, not goest
wh7.....clue please
nvm I found it!
I totally agree with you Molly
Share please Aebmusica?
Also, I wonder about the Herein, hereon...etc...but it doesn't like whatif
Tee hee...a person that lives by the Dr. Seuss people in the Grinch book could be called a "whoist"!
I greyed out the bottom row and now I must get to the mall to see my great-nephews meet Santa Claus.
You have the best days! Enjoy..and take a pic or two!!!!!
why isn't eggshit a word...that slimy stuff you get if it isn't cooked right?

I uploaded a new icon pic...do you all see pumpkins or snowy trees?
Ok. I have the same problem.
Snowy trees
That's waht I see origami
ty car
origami is that the one you intended or is it supposed to be something else this time?
but if i click on your profile I see grinch
pumpkins in your profile phaeton, but snowy trees in the chat
I seesanta Buddha both places and I love the icon
Phae...I take that back...what I see on the chog and what is in your profile are different
It looks like snowy trees in the chog pic, but its too small for my bad eyes to make it out. I just know it is not the same picture when I pull up your profile.
Strange disconnects between profile and chog going on
I know...same with origami's pic
try to refresh your pages
i see pumpkins even tho I have refreshed 3 times

Hi Hego!
Morning Car
Hi hego
hello again
bottom row grayed! lol
do you all see a different icon now?
nope
I see it MLF, after refreshing.
Yes, a Christmas tree
only in your profile
I would love to figure out why some people see new icons and others don't. For some, I know it is because they are in Expert.
right
i never knew that
They take a while to show up in Expert.
Some people can't see the forest for the trees.
i see it in both

oh great
clue please?
Finished!
Well 12 points for a 4 letter word is a big clue
there's only one way to make 12.
Congrats Gramma!
I don't know how I ever finished these before w/out the list.
congrats gramma
Before I run off, does anybody want a clue?
No, thank you Gramma
ijust made a 4/9 5/20
Okie dokie then see you all tomorrow
i just found the ho 6/7 sounds like they are talking about female Redskins fans for those of you in the US who know football :)
The ho6 Redskin fans were actually men dressed as women
And we are long past the days of the infamous Redskin ho4. Damn do I miss Riggins up the middle for a touchdown.
molly this is true
i miss theisman and gibbs
Well, we got Gibbs back and it didn't help. The problem with The Redskins is The Little Tyrant aka Dan Snyder.
yes he along with the coach both need to go
Scottish for a public house or local "haunt"
for that something 12 word?

Boy howdy, this is my kind of December. It's going up to 70 degrees here today
weird temps here too this time of year i want some damn snow lol
i gtg eat
Have a great day everyone! Enjoy the weather!
stats for the lower s in the first column, pl
I could never see snow again and live happily ever after
st 4/8 and 5/18
where are you at Molly?
ty origami
DC metro area
Does the traffic bother you?
No, but then I don't drive much. The traffic is pretty bad around here and most people have an over an hour commute to work. I refuse to drive that far to get to a job. It eats up a lot of your salary and most of your sanity.
Not to mention your life.
It's gotten bad around here also ... can take me an hour to get home - 21 miles :-(
Ouch!
I don't know how you California people deal with the traffic. There is no way I could do that.
It's bad out there.
It is much worse in the Bay Area where I have to go for work at least weekly. And, all Bay Area drivers are insane.
lol They have to be.
Oh we have our fair share of crazy drivers here. It's the ALL ABOUT ME syndrome on the highway. Must be the first, and the fastest and always changing lanes to accomplish that.
I suppose so ... otherwise they would just sit in gridlock
Although, as compared to nyc San Fran is a walk in the park.
why are we spending a lovely sunday morning talking about traffic?!?!
Best part of driving in San Fran is that it is so small you can't stay lost
lol, Hurshy, good question.
We're gluttons for punishment
Worst part of driving in San Fran is that it still takes ages to get across it, despite the smallness.
Hurshy, did you see my post about The Byzantine? I am more than sure that it is BR back under a different name. Just thought you would want to know that.
did you guys all see the vid of the barcelona orangutan who laughs at the magic trick?
Origami, that is true. My first solo drive thru, I missed a turn. Just kept going north sure to find the GG bridge.
molly that is what i've been suspecting also
Yes - hilarious video!
molly i am in nc i think our temps are about 10 degrees difference?
who is BR?
Mollu, Ru and I have been talking about that. We think so too.
that's weird - i thought enable was the most inclusive online dictionary, but it doesn't take GOWF which i just played in scrabble against my sister yesterday
hurshy those words don't always apply to both games.
I don't find enable to be that inclusive.
well obviously i've been deluding myself!
Lots of Scrabble words are not accepted here.
if i used a scrabble dictionary for this game most wouldn't work and its been updated a lot. i have one that was a very early edition
bbl...
bye hego
so does everyone have their christmas tree up? i mean, if you are having one.
nope
sy5/16 pls
nice photo phae
<---no Christmas tree at all we do have one that lights up and small but cat plays with it
<---no Christmas tree at all we do have one that lights up and small but cat plays with it

done
I was going to go get a small tree today, but am not going out in this storm
congrats phaeton
congrats phae
phantom: swift
ty
got a little deco done, but not sure about the tree. No family showing up so why bother...bah humbug
phae no family here either
for the sheer enjoyment of gazing upon its beauty! o christmas tree, o christmas tree, how lovely are thy branches
no presents under a tree...:-(
lol exactlyhurshy
too much bother...no help...have a 2 footer, should be enough
Yes Hego, Ru and I have talked about that also
as long as it has pretty lights and ornaments, that's the key
no lights...they burned out and can't find replacements
phae i would love to put up our artificial tree as it has fiber optic lights
so they blink and change colors
I probably will...just not today.
I would decorate for Christmas even if I lived alone. I am festive that way.
good fer you molly!
molly if hubby would let me i would do it as well
Except no blinking lights, ever. They make me think of highway diner signs EAT AT JOE'S
I usually am, but a lot has changed and just can't get in the mood...maybe is there was a little snow
yeah i'm not a big fan of the blinkers
*if
phae i agree
sorry to hear things are not so good phae
Your husband won't "let" you decorate? That kind of husband would not last long in my house.
ok...gotta get going. Have a good day everyone!
bye phae
i have come to a stand still with grid, i might be back but i am watching US football today all 3 games:)
poof
Sometimes, when life has been tough, you need to take a year off from the holiday stuff. That is perfectly acceptable.
some churches hold services specifically for sad people, "blue christmas"
I don't know if I could do that during a tough year. It would feel too much like I Love Lucy and The Friends Of The Friendless.
hmmm
It's just me. The whole "misery loves company" thing has never worked for me. I am better off trying to fake it around festive people, even if I don't feel festive.
ah
I've taken 6 years off the holiday stuff. Ready to put up a little tree this year.
I'm off the holiday stuff too.. to me it is just a few days off work
<--- this is about as Christmassy as I get
Love the icon ru .. but then, I love rusty things

Good morning, all!
Judi, the Judemeister, Jude-o-rama, the Jude woman
Hi Judi
:-)) That's me.
Admires new blond do
Judi if you get big, buxon silicon implants he will find you : P
Thank you. Weather is very non-winter like today. About 60 deg. Warm and sunny. Not that I'm complaining!
No silicone for me. Ruru can get his own implants.
Totally loving the mild December temperatures. And wondering why people feel the need to say "we'll pay for this".
that's for people whose wine glass is empty
Was trying to talk my husband into building a "catio" so the cats can go out on the deck. He thinks I'm kidding.
<--not really a big breast kind of guy Molly
That's for guys who still call them boobies when they're adults
a booby to me is a bird with blue feet in the galapagos
Yeah, I don't get adults who use the term "boobies". Or "potty".
(sees judi at Macy's outdoors buying little Kitty Lounge chairs for the catio)
the second ha 5 plz
Do the cat get a hot tub too?
ha + most of swimming creature

Yes, I knew that, My post was a joke to Ruru
I think the ha5 is something for the throat
Something for the throat? Thorazine?
Phantom: Hashish.
wouldn't that be throatazine
Judi has been in the cat nip.. judi has been in the cat nip

And now Judi has busted the chat width.
Pardon my catnip face plant.

Time for a wee nap. Later, kids! *POOF*

I still had lots of tomatoes in January last year
wow.. I'm having a small garden next year. Too lazy this one
I didn't get my winter garden in this year :-(
I like to plant tomatoes and Cukes and red peppers and such
Fresh tomatoes in January. You folks in the warmer climates are so fortunate.
But it is always over 100 in the summer where I am, often over 105. Gross.
110 gets my attention
Fireworks!!
good for you ori.
Bye all

Hi Welki
hi, hego - got your weemee on :)
Hello all :-). Christmas decorations & tree all up & house cleaned within an inch of it's life. It'll probably be as grubby again by the time Christmas comes!
christmas one. :)
hey, soodle, oh ambitious one
Hi Soods, did you come to NY yet?
Hiya Soodle!
Glad someone is doing their chores.
Aw, Bich - I never got there. I was quite unwell. And hi Hego :-)
what happened?
I donated the travel gift card to the younger daughter, who flew off to Tampa, Fla in November to see Taylor Swift!
Were you sick?
You treat those kids well, for sure.
I was, Bich. I get very 'down' in November....
Awww, so sorry Soodle.
so 6,30 anyone?
It's bonkers. I know November is a 30 day month & it will pass, but every year it's the same. I psych myself up to get through it, but every year - wham. :-(
Seasonal affective disorder. Lots of people have this problem.
s + famous black runner, jesse
ty Welki. Knewit started with the lady pig, but just couldn't get the right combo.
Thank you, Welki
So, Hego - your icon is a 'weemee'? I've seen MollyL & Ruru discussing weemees & I hadn't a clue what they are. At least now I know :-)
for some reason the little cutsy things offend the heck out of them.
hang on, uploading mine
I am actually laughing out loud!!!
haha!
Dammit..... I need a weemee!
Car made this one for me.
hello all
Hi TO
there - size is a little off, but it takes off a few pounds :)
Very slimming. :)
hey owl
getting coffee...
a lovely likeness it is....let's ALL get weemies! let's have a WEEMEE day!
i think soodle is off googling them :)
and a clue friday, i avatar clue friday!
Lol, Welki! That's exactly what I was doing! :-)
so, have you made one yet
And hi TO :-)
back
hello soodle.
doesn't take long to create one, and i've never spent any money to do them (if you keep them simple, free is good)
Goodness - I only found out what they were 5 minutes ago!! Gimme a chance....
help with wi6/7 or wh6/7 pls
and it looks like you! :)
hi all
hi Peri
the hair, the clothes, the fishing pole - that's about right. they don't have an option for old bag weemees :D
they have grey hair.
oh, stop.
yeah stop
*stopping*
i suppose it's time to select a seasonal icon
lol welki
..... I'm going to have to wait for my resident technical advisor to come home to 'weemee me'.
We all have one kid with that title.
help with wi7 pls
smart pennies, it sounds like
good clue, ty welki
start with what the owl is and end like a gift.
or what Welki said.
)
so there is an option for ice fishing background in weemee? suprprising
there are a couple of winter backgrounds and the fishing hole/rod were free add-ons, i think
i used to have a background with snowmobiles, but i can't find it - too bad i don't have the wherewithal to superimpose the weemee onto my (real) snowmobile pic
Well, thank you for letting me know what weemees are. Could anybody now tell me why they are found offensive?
No idea
They think they're creepy
And done! Have a great day All.
bye, hego
bye Welki. Poof!
Ok. I certainly wouldn't like to wake up in the middle of the night & have a life-size Weemee looming over me, but apart from that, they seem innocent enough.
Well done, Hego :-)
Hego, I went to the weemee site but didn't see any options for holiday sweathers (I like yours!)
need weemee help
yes, what i saw is very limited.
i am trying to get the glasses to be clear, not tinted'
I thought those were sunglasses, so not sure if you can change them, TO.
well what about real glasses?
I didn't see options for those. Strange. But I'm new to the weemee thing, so I'm probably not looking in the right spot. Hego? You seem to be our resident expert. ?
she's gone.
As will I be too, as soon as I can figure out that wh6/7 combo. Any clues?
no, not gone - trying to figure out something. you'll never get it 100% the way you think it should be - for me, i left off the glasses for the same reason
(funny, i don't recall you wearing glasses, owl - did you have them when we met?)
She took them off so you'd recognize her from her weemee. lol!!
Lol Ch!
Okay, on that silly note, I'll go take my walk and be back later. :)
later, ch
well, after i made myself i tried my hand at someone else.
and?
the glasses are ok but cannot make them over to clear
will check back later - i hear the distant sound of the dryer buzzer
then take 'em off :)
later, welk!
the glasses are a defining feature. :(
and i am actually getting glasses this week
hello everyone
Howdy Nan :-)
It's heading for 10.00pm here. I am banjaxed (tired) after all the cleaning today. Good night all.

Morning all

I think we agree on many things
are you observing hannukah?
well I live in quite a religious neighbourhood and best friends are jewish but I am not. But happy to take the free doughnuts!
donuts. *does best homer impression*
I recently saw a picture of the nine candles resting on the back of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Is that kosher?
*buys precious moment figurines for the weemee crowd*
i am fighting with a huge wreath where half the lights are not working.
precious moment?
and off i go to finish my own nasty business.
bye Owl - hope nasty gets better
though it is a tossup, 4shur
only if the darned thing lights!
Bye all
later lunnxx
BFB - (Babbling from Bed). Why so disparaging about little cartoon characters, Ru? Am I missing something?
They're creepy to me .. and childish. that's all. I really don't care
I'll never mention it again..
i always found those figurines to be the intersection of creepy and uncanny valley.
the precious moments things are creepy too
agreed
I'm genuinely puzzled. Are we talking about little pictures, or actual doll-like things. Please excuse my ignorance...
figurines -- mostly cast.
of the saccharine cute variety.
You asked me about the weemees soodle and I answered your question.
There Are no weemees here. Should I buy a franchise?
Weemee icons look like something 12-year-old girls would post. And yes, they are very creepy. Big eyes, cartoon bodies. Give me the eebie-geebies.
And why is it "disparaging" to not like something?
Can I get a clue for the ha%? I have the plural of the ha4/8.
ha5
Hi Dianne - ha 5 - ha + most of scaly swimmer
Thanks liz. Happy last night of Hanukkah'
To you too - or last day for me - 9.22 am here.
Did you make donuts?
No - made latkes. Didn't even have a doughnut last night at our Chanukah in the Park celebrations! Too full!
Back in a minute - need to hang sheets out.
See you tomorrow.
Have a good evening
Fireworks - enjoy your days, lurkers :)
well done, Liz! have a good one.
Thanks, dc - you too.
help with the so6 or the sh7?
sh 7 not overly friendly
or outgoing
actually, the part of speech is the condition of. and sh7 has nothing to do with friendliness.
got it Dan?
so 6 is plural of Terrel the infamous football player S +
Oh boy, I'm confused. Is there more than one sh7? I thought that was the opposite of friendliness.
I used to be painfully shy but I wasn't unfriendly.
no, it is not.
The clue worked for me though, thanks ru
people take sh7 as being unfriendly don't they? I kind of always think of it that way. TO might be right though
nah.
however, as a clue, it works because many people would say that it is.
I think not outgoing is a better clue.. I guess.
I'm trying to decide what I want for dinner
works fine.
I am painfully shy still Chrissie :D
:D
sh7 is being reserved during the process of getting to know people, in part due to wanting to understand people and be able to trust them before deeply engaging them.
for example, i was quieter than ruru expected when we met. :)
and thank you, i got the word from reading the chog. :)
you were.. that's true..
and i'm shocked i got ruru's football reference for the so6
I expected you to be more outgoing..
the anonymity of the internet makes on line interaction decidedly different.
agreed, TO
I would just blush and lose the power of coherent speech in any social situation :(
:D
I'm always at a loss for words :D
i was far from my most gregarious when we met.
yeah.. and I bought breakfast :D
how nice
did you have eg4/8? i just found them.
actually I knew DC was smart and well-spoken, but in person he was even more so.
you did, and it was lovely, and most appreciated, as was the lift tot he ballpark :)
I'd think you'd be not so gregarious if you had picked up the check :D (just kidding)
I think you were road weary though by the time I saw you
<---pulling DC's chain :D
did I kill the chat?
SF was our third city in 10 days. Seattle, Portland, Seattle, SF, back to DC. With a stop in Astoria, Or, and in Bainbridge, WA.
That was a fun trip. And ballgames in Seattle an SF three days apart.
I love Seattle..great city
o-ohh I'd BetteR go shopping for Dinner
Seattle underwhelmed me. I do think should give it another go. I mean, i had fun there, but unlike some other places i've been, it didn't leave me excited about it,nor wanting to return.
got the sh7 thanks, sorry for the lag from putting miss2bit to sleep
the so6 I'm still stumped on
nm got it - tx all cluers, that's firewords
add in infix to so4.8
congrats, dan!
