chic- dani got drunk last nite - had poor cg trapped in the hot tub talking his head off, she was angry because erika insinuated she might put dani up (by not giving her a straight answer - & dani is not stupid, she figured it out, so she was pisssssed)
12:35 am
autumn moon

Thanks. I guess I have a lot to go then
12:36 am
chic

yay! what goes around , comes around for Dani that is!
12:36 am
helenkeller

then stupid erika comes outside to have a cig, is listening to dani & smirking, so this sets drunk dani off & she goes ballistic on erika - i was really afraid for erika, i thought she was going to hit her
12:36 am
chj

got an 8
12:36 am
chj

te8
12:36 am
chj

texturer
12:36 am
helenkeller

on & on & on - 'i had your back' 'you betrayed me' blah, blah, blah, but she was soooo angry! it was scary
12:36 am
chj

sorry
12:37 am
helenkeller

erika finally managed to make it back to hoh room, took will with her - after the ever-so-gallant boog refused to go with her & locked the door
12:37 am
RocDragon

i already got that one. what are the other 2 8's?
12:37 am
chic

Helen, my hubby and I were huge 'Dead' fans in the day!
12:38 am
chj

theres 4
12:38 am
helenkeller

drunk dani followed them & leaned on the doorbell for 10 minutes - i do not exaggerate - will spent the night in hoh bed with erika 'for proection'
12:38 am
chic

thanx chj, so kind, I don't want to have to think...
12:38 am
RocDragon

got the ex8 too
12:39 am
chic

Oh that is so rich, helen; I wonder if they will show any of that and wonder if erika now has about a real clue about boogie's loyalty..
12:39 am
helenkeller

and that's the story - today they are civil to each other, haven't referred to the incident, played cards with each other - weird
12:40 am
helenkeller

erika is an idiot, she's asked him straight out -are you taking me to finals, never a straight answer - you think she would get a clue by now
12:40 am
chj

thanks roc...just got that one
12:41 am
helenkeller

best place i saw dead was 3 days in a row at alpine valley, wi - outside always best :))) that was a long, long time ago :)
12:41 am
chic

now that's weird; although erika probably has experience with raving drunks given her exboyfriend that was on season 5 with her...
12:41 am
saintfranny

yea! more bb talk! :) i didn't watch a Bit of the feeds today. i heard dani lost it last night tho
12:41 am
RocDragon

cl8/55
12:42 am
helenkeller

chic - yeah, i wonder too how much or rather what of it they will be able to show - cause it will sound like bleep, bleep, you bleeping bleeper, bleep hahahaha
12:42 am
RocDragon

ah. tu8
12:43 am
helenkeller

hiya franny! dani was frightening & now ct has asked cg to join up, so unknown to each other - everyone is a member of chilltown & i'm still asking the same thing i asked since week 2 - why are these guys still there, LOL
12:43 am
saintfranny

LOL. will is a genius
12:44 am
saintfranny

he or jani better win this thing. they both deserve it
12:44 am
helenkeller

the evil doctor has it all figured out
12:44 am
chic

because ct is good at dodging bullets is my guess; or Will is a freaking genius at manipulating people..
12:44 am
saintfranny

don't want another Nerd Herd win :)
12:44 am

12:46 am
helenkeller

here is my secret desire - well not so secret cause i told my chat room, so we are all thinking about this, so just in case christmas comes for us too, we have a plan --- but my wish is that on tomorrow's show cbs rewards us with america's choice to call & nom the 2nd evictee - the audience so deserves it! don't you think that's a great idea?
12:46 am
saintfranny

yeah i can't wait to see how they handle the 2nd evict. on thurs!!!!!
12:46 am
saintfranny

that would be awesome helen
12:47 am
FMitch

ex7 - To shape (a plastic, for instance) by forcing it through a die and the 8 is the machine that does it
12:47 am

12:48 am
helenkeller

in the chat, most think erika is jani's biggest problem to face because erika can beat her at any endurance comp - after all, she does play the part of 'furniture' every day :)
12:48 am
Susan-Victoria

Thanks, Dippnall!
12:48 am
saintfranny

12:50 am
RocDragon

cl8 has the same ending as the te8
12:50 am
Susan-Victoria

past tense for closing a debate...starts with what you get when the blood stops running,

lickety is doing ok, he is passed out at the moment but luckily, the spleen isn't damaged, so will get the blood results when we can... I suspect he has glandular fever like maddison

I am so sorry to hear that, mrP! Sounds nasty :(
2:14 am
MVA

mrp, what's happened?
2:16 am
mrpresident

thanks sprite:)
mva, he is in pain around the spleen and he is really feeling ill, but we had an ultrasound (suspected a ruptured spleen from soccer game accident) but it looks clear.
Maddison has glandular fever and the doc suspects he is suffering from it too.... so we wait
2:17 am

Waiting is the hardest thing sometimes. I really hope he will be well soon, mrP. *hugs* for both of you.

6:58 am

If you';re feeling brave. grab a Fiesta from the top shelf of the newsagents and look for Mars In Venus, my horoscope column (all done properly - or rather, improperly) and either Bad Sex or Sex Problems. I write both.
6:59 am
Atalante

6:59 am

Which mag did you write for, Jacula?
6:59 am
Jacula

55 words left here. I need to go out to order some glass to replace a broken pane on the greenhouse roof (where Conference pears bounced off it last year!) and a broken pane in the rabbit shed (where my daughter slid it open too enthusiastically). Also need to scour the charity shops for some plain net curtain to pin across the hutch fronts. (One of our rabbits got 'flystrike' on Sunday. Caught it just in time. He's on anti-biotics, but will be okay.)
7:01 am

7:08 am

Can't have been. The ed's male and has been for years, unless he wears a frock in private!

9:50 am

I was listening this morning to some radio jocks complaining about the state of New Orleans since Katrina and how badly the gov't has treated the people there. But I think if people here saw how people elsewhere in the world are treated (after the tsunami, for example), we should all be grateful for the freedoms we enjoy. And we should use all those freedoms responsibly. Ok - that's it - I'll get off my soapbox and get back to the grid.

10:30 am
klaurel

If he likes fantasy and dragons, Random House recently put the old Dragonlance books by Weis and Hickman out for kids. They dumbed it down a little and turned from a trilogy to a 6-book series

I liked the Pern series, though I find McCaffery's habit of marrying off all her strong women annoying...
10:31 am

I don't know if Grant would be into anything dumbed-down. He reads mostly teen and adult books, but I will look for the originals next time we go to Powell's in Portland. [Another plug -- Powell's City of Books in Portland Oregon, HUGE used and new bookstore, searchable from online, and a coffee shop in one corner... I love it]

I used to have most of the Pern books, I think they were damaged 18 years ago when my storage locker flooded because I can only find a couple. I enjoy McCaffrey, but Grant wasn't too interested in the Pern books I have.

Good morning all. Alan and I have just been delihting in the company of 18 quail under our bedroom window--plump and preening as they stuff themselves with seed. Four males, eight fully grown females, and the rest this year's chicks but now quite sizeable.

te8 = some wallpaper which is not smooth is te****** (past tense). drop the 'd' for the te7.
10:40 am

But my husband thought it was a big deal when Orson Scott Card plugged the movie Serenity (I didn't know who he was at the time). I love Firefly and SErenity!
10:40 am
hetty

Jaime te7 and te8 (pastv tense of verb) have to do with the feel of a fabric or apparent density of a visual image--build on te4
10:40 am

thanks guys!!
10:40 am
Charm

raelite, maybe you've not read the kind of scifi which appeals to you? There's such a great variety of subgenres.
10:40 am
Charm

Sorry, Jaime, not familiar with either of those....
10:41 am
hetty

I'm onto the mu's and can't find the second mu6/27--I have the "mu**** most foul"
10:41 am
raelite

that's likely the case...I do love historical fiction though, it's my favorite so that's kind of like sci fi
10:41 am
Jaime

Firefly was Joss Whedon's latest work, a tv show that stupid Fox cancelled. And SErenity is the movie that came out of the show and was actually quite good unlike other movies coming out of shows.
10:42 am
raelite

it's the science of history with fictional stories
10:42 am
Jaime

I love that genre too, raelite.
10:42 am
Charm

mu6/27 = pl of the mu5/16 before it?
10:42 am

:)
10:44 am
Charm

raelite, you could try alternate histories - what if Columbus didn't find the new world? what if Germany won the world wars? what if the Colonies didn't gain independence from Britain? those are a lot of fun. And you could start with an anthology or two to discover authors and subgenres.
10:44 am

They land only on large rocks far out to sea.
12:53 pm

not really -but we've got so PC here! It just sounds really old fashioned now - I think going out 'on the pull' is the saying of the moment!
12:53 pm

ok, going to lunch, back soon
12:53 pm

what if they can't make it? do they fall in the sea and drown?

btw, did you know that dolphin trainers have a signal for "do any trick you want", and the dolphins all go under and communicate with each other and come out and do the same trick in sync
12:55 pm

Just kidding. If one of them falters, the others probably peck it to death and eat it. What do I know?
12:55 pm
Dachef

my window looks out over the marina (yup, posh!), and every time I try and check bread at the swans about a million seagulls appear ouit of thin air and attack them.

and also, experimenters have found that some animals like chimps and parrots actually have abstract concepts. like if you show them things that are square, and then you bring them a tray full of things they have never seen, you can say, pick out the square ones, and they will.

ah, snowy, when i was a kid i would hide without telling my mom i was going to, so then i would call out, "say, 'where's (hurshy)?'" and my mom would say it (with my real name of course), and i would say, "say, 'where could she be?'", and she would say that too
1:02 pm
Dachef

I played hide-and-seek with my parents when i was a kid. I once hid in the garage for 3 years. I dont think my parents really wanted to find me.
1:02 pm

My kids still think the point of any hiding game is for the hider to show the searcher the hidden thing as soon as possible. (It doesn't matter whether the hidden thing is themselves or some little toy.)

Scrabbler - bunny was nursed through the night and more maggots removed (on vet's advice), went to vet's next morning and had injection to kill off any remaining eggs & maggots plus injection of antibiotics. He's on daily antibiotics now and we have a thing called 'Rearguard' to spray all the bunnies' bums with. Apparently, it stops any eggs laid from hatching & is effective for 10 weeks. Bunny is more lively but felt rather cold to me when I gave him his meds earlier. (Not a good sign, considering his a stroke survivor. Hope the stress of it all doesn't do for him.)

I have been through Pasteurella with 2 of mine, inlcuding the head tilt, so I know about nursing them back to health, feeding by dropper, etc. Warm him up with bottles filled with hot water, or put him under lights, or wrap him in a blanket. Good luck. What is his name?
5:47 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - I've nursed 2 bunnies through Pasteurella in the past, and quite a few through strokes too. Thanks for thinking of him. He's a black rabbit, nearly 8-yrs-old and his name is Joey (after Joey from 'Friends').
5:49 pm
Scrabbler

I have a black one, well, an American Tan, named Tucker John. Also, a Netherland dwarf named Sebastian. A Palomino named Callie. And a mini Rex named Gandalf. I am a bunny nut so it is nice to meet another.
5:50 pm
Jacula

Speaking of Pasteurella, we had a big beige rabbit who got that about a week after we had her. The vet we went to at the time advised us to have her put down. Needless to say, we did not, and she went on to spend 5 years happily sharing a hutch with little Joey. (And the head tilt DID go in time.)
5:51 pm
Scrabbler

Gandalf has had skin abscesses and is on enrofloxacin for life, at $1/day, since he recovered after being ill from Jan-April.
5:53 pm
Jacula

We had about 18 rabbits at one time but now it's just the 4 (who are all between 7 & 8-yrs'-old). There's Joey (black Netherland Dwarf), Daphne (grey Netherland Dwarf who turned out much bigger than either her tiny mother (Morgan), her bigger father (Elton) or her mini sister (Daphne). Then there are 2 English lops (brothers) called Chandler & Flossie. (We thought Flossie was a girl at first!)
5:54 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - is Gandalf a house rabbit? If not, I expect you, too, have to be vigilant for flies?
5:55 pm
Scrabbler

They sound adorable! Sebastian is my bitty 2 lb sweetheart that sleeps with me.
5:55 pm
Jacula

(Incidentally, Chandler's beige & Flossie is white with brown & beige patches.)
5:56 pm
Scrabbler

Callie was Calvin for 7 mo until it was clear that he was a she.
5:56 pm

5:56 pm
Scrabbler

Hmm, are we bothering Babblers with our bunny talk?
5:57 pm
Jacula

Oh dear! Did you end up with baby Callies?
5:57 pm
Jacula

Dunno, Scrabbler. I expect they'll say if we are!
5:57 pm
Scrabbler

Mine are all litterbox trained. Callie is alone downstairs, then the boys each have their own bedroom upstairs.
5:58 pm
Scrabbler

No--never any babies, and if I ever did have a litter, it would be impossible to give them away.

We only ever bred 2 of our rabbits. Hazel (a brown Netherland Dwarf) had 3 babies but one died at birth, the other was only half-formed and the other grew to be the sweetest doe, just like her Mum. Sadly, she died for no apparent reason at 1-yr-old. The other rabbit we bred was Bernie (the grey Netherland). Unfortunately, she gave birth a fortnight before Nov. 5th (Bonfire Night) and kids setting fireworks off in the street outside caused her to panic and kill are 3 newborns.
6:04 pm

6:26 pm
Judi

Bambam - first mu5/16 - Don't know what it means, but it kind of sounds like the sticky invention named after burddocks.
6:26 pm
Jacula

Bean - mu4/6 - a wrong spelling of a word for dogs. (Remove a consonant.)
6:26 pm
Judi

Uhg. Got all the mu's. Now I need the mi6/21.
6:26 pm
bean66

6:27 pm

a different clue for the burddocks mu, please?
6:27 pm

Bambam - mu5/16 is Latin for 'a sharp point'. Sounds like that decongestant tablet 'Mu***n* (if you have that brand in Oz.)

pam - the mu word that rhymes with glittery material and condoms (or sticky tape in Oz [I believe?]) means: 1. any marine gastropod of the genus Mu***, common in tropical seas, certain species of which yield the royal purple dye valued by the ancients.
2. a shell used as a trumpet, as in representations of Tritons in art.
3. purplish red.

bubba - Victorian Britain was rife with kinkiness and drug taking (amidst the slums and squalor). The so-called 'upper' classes even put covers on piano legs for 'modesty'... but what they were up to behind closed doors! More hypocritical then than now. (Though 'now' takes a bit of beating at times! No pun intended.)

Ah! Re the mattress. What does it do if you diet (or reverse)?
7:11 pm
Judi

Envy me, Franmag. Although, ironically, we'll probably be sleepless worrying about the $1600 we promised. (12 months, no payments, interest free).
7:11 pm
bubba218

I had the tempur mattress, but now I have the sleep comfort air type, I like ti better, but I guess that is personal preference
7:11 pm
Jacula

$1600? That's about £800 & something here in UK?
7:12 pm

So, what you're saying Bubba, is that you've slept around.

Sounds good, FranMag. I'll stick with our Hippo & Chick mattress for now. We only bought it 2 years' ago.

Judi

Yes, Jacula. Outrageous, I know. However - we were spoiled for our waterbed, but didn't want to deal with the hassle of it any more.
7:14 pm

Thereto - one spends 1/3 of one's life sleeping, so, I guess it can be argued that it's a good investment.

A good mattress (with an unsqueaky frame) is most definitely a good investment!

BTW, Scrabbler.. we should get together on MSN or Yahoo Messenger re our bunnies.
7:20 pm
Jacula

bubba - very true! Also, you should try sleeping on one that has the broken metal ends of the springs poking through! You tape 'em up until you are heavily pregnant. Then you have nightmares about you and your baby being coiled to the mattress and dead etc...

Thanks for that Scrabbler. For future reference, since these chatlogs go into internet archives, you should just briefly put your e-mail addy up on your profile. Tell the person you want to contact that you are doing so and ask them to tell you when they have got it. Then remove it. Too many nutters out there...

The 2005 version of King Kong was, in my opinion, too long winded at the start, (but was true to the book, which actually came out just before the first film version did, even though it was written from the screenplay). In the end, though, it still made me cry at the greed, stupidity and vanity of much of the human race. (But that was the message it meant to convey.)

Hi everybody - I hadn't heard that about New Orleans, Jac - that is very disturbing.
7:38 pm
Jacula

I'll get off my soapbox, yet again, re New Orleans. The only thing I can think is that it was a mainly 'black' city and so... no real aid. Over a million of the aid sent from overseas has been misappropriated, it seems.
7:38 pm
bubba218

Jac, unfortunately this country is deep in the victim mentality, New Orleans could and should have been evacuated. It's mayor waffled and then hid on the tope of its tallest hotel so he wouldn't be involved. Then blamed everyone but himself. He still can't mange to allot the money given to the city. It is a shame and he blames everyone he can. Typical

However, my Mum still drives me nuts, though I love her to bits. I once 'saw' her in the mi6/21 when I was at the hairdresser's. She wasn't there... it was me! OMIGOD! Becoming my Grandmother (maternal one) is another worry... she used to interrupt film or programme watching on TV with remarks like, 'He was in so-and-so! What Was it? What's his name? Oh, YOU KNOW!' Erm... I seem to be doing that now.

cl7 is a term for ending debate in the political realm. kinda sounds like high-end clothes such as carson from queer eye might suggest.

Lyrics for the song I am listening to - In the hour when the sun shines shines bright
On my head in the city where I am alone,
I never think of that once told story
When two flowers almost were one.
But what to do?
I still think in the morning of you.

When darkness hovers and city lights take over
I am blinded to the words "I am alone".
It's useless to cry for a star in the sky,
For the city lights tell me there's none.
But what to do?
I still cry in the morning for you.

When my head touches my pillow I am too weary
To dare dream that I am alone.
Now I lay myself down to sleep,
I pray the Lord his soul to keep is my song.
But what to do?
I still dream in the morning for you.
What to do?
I still cry in the morning for you

jacula - anorexics often feel completely out of control - the only thing they perceive to have control over is what they put in & by the same token - buliemics, take out of their bodies. in this way they are able control those around them - but then you must know all this jacula, so sorry for you, anorexics tend to be a very mean & hurtful bunch - of course there are always exceptions

"Be careful!" came a strong voice, "My wing is dislocated merely -- I do not want it broken!"

You lot can kind of thank Melanie Safka for my recycling, but not me being a veggie. Tried that, didn't suit me! Too much time spent around farm animals to mind eating them. But Melanie S never wanted to eat anything that had a face. My daughter takes after her.. but she is ruling fish out of that one now, thank God! Any parent who has had to commit a child to an insane sanatorium for a number of years may well know what I mean.

Finally, he spoke with all the authority he could manage. "If your wing is dislocated, we need to put it back. I can do it -- or I can help you get where it can be done. Which do you prefer?"
10:30 pm
Minveryork

My husband has 10 of them here for anyone who has none.
10:30 pm

The strange face looked at him, assessing this person who was not afraid to help.

10:33 pm
stidmama

Paul was astonished at how light the creature was -- and almost lifted it off the ground entirely. Gently, he helped it get seated on a log.
10:33 pm
chj

the following year a similar ball came my way...but it had so much spin, it twisted right out of my hands
10:33 pm
Jacula

Oh well, I seem to have become invisible. Not giving clue, so not useful, I guess.
10:33 pm
stidmama

"Take my hand, and pull it out straight --- but gently -- and slowly."
10:34 pm

scene, 1940, fresh arrival in NY from England. Uncle took niece and his own 2 kids to ball game in Yankee Stadium (bleachers). On explanation to Brit kid as to destination "Yankee Stadium", Brit says, amazed - "You mean they really call them Yankees?" (insult in 1940s Britain). But Britkid had played Rounders and more or less uderstood the game -- was taought by cousing how to score and became a fan.

Paul reached into his satchel and pulled out a canteen. He offered it to the figure, and it gratefully accepted.

"Do you use plants to help heal?" he asked, "This one is used by my people to lessen pain and help sinews reknit."
10:39 pm

The creature pushed its hair away from its face and set its lipless mouth in an approximation of a smile.

Paul nodded and reached for another bundle, pulling a serrated, yellow-leaved red flower out. "Do you know what this one is? I found it yesterday. It is similar to something from my home, but I do not know it well enough to use it."

"Come. Follow if you can." And it hopped onto the log, then transformed into a beautiful, raptor-like bird.
10:45 pm

10:45 pm

Paul was hard pressed to keep the figure in view, but it rested often and called out when Paul wasn't moving in the right direction.

Deeper and deeper into the forest they went, higher and higher up the mountains.

"But," she added with a glance at her mother, "It must not interfere with her other schooling. Nan has some catching up to do."
10:59 pm
stidmama

John turned from the window, "Mother, I think you will find that Nan is further along than you knew."
11:00 pm
stidmama

And Nan came bursting through the door, with a tall plant in her hands and an exuberant, questioning look on her face.
11:00 pm
stidmama

Her education was about to begin.
11:01 pm
