I've got to hurry, will leave with the family for a last holidays outing today and won't be back until tonight. Argh, 49 more to go!
12:52 am
jillibus

Yet I can't see the so8 or the ag8 or the am8 etc
12:53 am
jillibus

sprite, I have 245 to go, blecchh
12:54 am
sprite

jilli: So is a compound. Think of sound detecting and of a male.
Ag + protruding thing in face minus last letter, then make it sound like an affliction at the end. As like the word for not being able to sleep (you know it well)
12:56 am
sprite

Am is harder to clue. Am + what sounds like a female name, alt. spelling.
Or Am + abbrev. for 'what this is about' + et4/4
12:57 am
jillibus

heavens, go the so8 unword - already had the 1st part. Yikes.
12:58 am
sprite

Not seeing the words for the letters... hey, you also suffer from babblitis! ;)
12:59 am
jillibus

also go the ag8 - sounds irreligious! Great clues, sprite - will work on the others
1:00 am
sprite

Oh, much better clue! You are right, so close to that word!
1:02 am
jillibus

why can't I write the word got instead of go? Duh
1:02 am

Why bother? We all understand just as well, lol.

Must pass on something I mentioned earlier when there was a conversation about the demotion of Pluto from planetary status. This was a Letter to the Editor of the Victoria paper:
'If they got rid of Pluto because it's slow, gassy, irregular and not very bright, I'm going into hiding.'
D.H., Victoria

3:38 am
FranMag

do you have a def for it?
3:38 am
FranMag

i found all the rest, need that one more
3:39 am
Atalante

the actual z6 is herpes z***** - sciencey name for shingles
3:39 am
FranMag

eww, thanks!
3:39 am
Atalante

and the sea grass is z*****a
3:39 am
Atalante

3:41 am
Atalante

horrid word! though it was my first one today LOL
3:42 am
FranMag

funny what jumps out at you, eh?
3:43 am
Atalante

I know! it was only because of the sea grass name though, not the herpes!
3:44 am
FranMag

oh good!
3:45 am
FranMag

a friend of mine had shingles in her ear, it was very painful and caused her to have vertigo also. not a good thing
3:46 am
Atalante

ouch! shingles is meant to be a horrid thing
3:47 am
FranMag

i hope i never get them, same virus as chicken pox though, quite common i think
3:47 am
Atalante

yeah "adult chickenpox"
3:48 am
Odin

The virus is dormant for years in an adult (had to have had a severe case as a child) and one day...shingles.
3:49 am
Odin

aston
3:49 am
Odin

sorry
3:49 am
Atalante

3:49 am
FranMag

3:50 am
FranMag

3:51 am
Atalante

well he did apologise for it not being a real word ;)
3:52 am
FranMag

that's true. :-)
3:52 am
Odin

I was caught up in scrounging or as I like to say trolling for words.
3:53 am
FranMag

isn't that what we all do?
3:54 am
Odin

I have to admit it is my style but after chatting I belive many of the babblers don't need to troll as much as I do.
3:55 am
Odin

I have been extremely impressed with many.
3:55 am
SamanthaJoy

I hear that. Some of the people on this forum have minds qquicker than mine has ever been
3:55 am
FranMag

i think there are a handful that can get by without any help, sprite is my idol
3:56 am
Odin

Absolutely!
3:56 am
Atalante

even sprite needs help occasionally ;)
3:56 am
FranMag

very seldom, but yes, even sprite needs a nudge in the right direction.
3:57 am
Atalante

there were people who were even better than sprite as well ... they just don't chat much or hang around any more
3:58 am
FranMag

yes, if you look in the archives at the list of scores you see names that never appear in the chat.
3:58 am
Atalante

a lot of them used to chat a bit but faded out when the site got much busier
3:59 am
FranMag

i guess it used to be more 'exclusive' around here
4:00 am

PappouTed

I always want to make the word stire, duh, it's not a word
4:08 am
kurtmontgomery88

ahh, i already had it without the a, but thought there was another with the a lol

PappouTed

poor lady had a knee replacement in april and is still suffering
4:26 am
FranMag

oh, that's tough
4:26 am
PappouTed

her own fault, she has a pool right in her back yard and she doesn't use it for exercise
4:27 am
FranMag

so the suffering is from not getting the knee working?
4:28 am
PappouTed

yes, she's not working it out like she should, plus the older you are the harder it is. It's not really her fault, she's a widow, lives by herself and mopes around most of the day
4:29 am
PappouTed

she lives too far for me to visit when I'm working
4:29 am
FranMag

i see
4:29 am
PappouTed

now, if she would only get a computer, she could learn to babble, LOL

mrpresident

oh faerie!!
7:04 am
amandacath

I think that's it, jbp - druesen = glands, fieber = fever. My case of mono was very mild - not enough to stay out of school, but it did get me out the stupid marching band christmas parades!
7:04 am
Becca Lorum

Gotta go back to work guys. may get back later - depends if anyone is watching me!
7:04 am
faeriekae

7:07 am
faeriekae

LOL
7:07 am
Atalante

researhing what??
7:07 am
Becca Lorum

Therapy for a speech disorder called Apraxia
7:08 am
Atalante

ooh! interesting!
7:08 am
faeriekae

Ok what is Apraxia ?
7:09 am
Becca Lorum

Yeah, it's OK, but I'm looking forward to going back into real therapy - actually seeing people with speech problems instead of computers all day
7:09 am
mrpresident

apraxia! cool!! we have a speech therapist amongst us...
7:10 am
Becca Lorum

Apraxia - a motor speech disorder not associated with muscle weakness, but characterised by poor sequencing of speech movements, typically groping or clumsiness of movements
7:11 am
faeriekae

Sounds very intresting. But I understand wanting to get back into seeing patients.
7:12 am
Becca Lorum

Yeah - I miss the contact with people. I like talking too much!
7:12 am
mrpresident

becca... do you know much about asperger... semantic/pragmatic disorder?
7:13 am
Becca Lorum

A little bit. I used to work with adults with learning disabilities, but now mainly focus on acquired disorders (after stroke/head injury or Parkinson's/MS - stuff like that)
7:15 am
mrpresident

ah, that would be very interesting!! hope you get onto chatting with you patients!! you seem like a lovely person who enjoys a chat!!
7:15 am
faeriekae

Becca what a wonderful career.
7:15 am
Becca Lorum

Thanks Mrp!
7:16 am
bigshow

Becca, how does Apraxia differ from Dyspraxia? I'm not familiar with the former term
7:16 am
Becca Lorum

Yeah, it can be Faerie. I think getting out of the glorious NHS will do me lots of good and remind me why I went into speech therapy in the first place.
7:17 am
Becca Lorum

Bigshow - one and the same.
7:17 am
bigshow

aah I see
7:17 am
mrpresident

Munner

7:34 am
abe79

just a warning to all: I'm feeling very loopy today
7:34 am
Atalante

you'd have thought
7:35 am
abe79

i do not want to sit at work today. i am grateful for a big board. ok, back to the grid...
7:40 am
Tiny

That sounds dangerous abe79
7:42 am
abe79

i think i'm feeling cooped up by all the rain we've been having
7:45 am
Jacula

Afternoon all. I'm hoping that the rain holds off here for a few hours, as I'm intending to go blackberry picking with my Mum.
7:46 am
abe79

Hi Jacula
7:46 am
shorty

oh no what are you on abe?
7:46 am
Jacula

Hi abe. Isn't it odd that the icon theme should be 'z' on a day we have 6 z words in the grid?
7:47 am
amandacath

hi jac!
7:47 am
abe79

on? oh no, i'm not on anything! just fed up with work!
7:47 am
abe79

Jacula- it is odd! i thought of making my icon one of the z words in the grid
7:48 am
shorty

you said you were feeling loopy so i thought maybe you hurt yourself or something and was on drugs
7:49 am
abe79

oh thanks for asking shorty :) it's just been such yucky weather and i'm losing my job so i feel kind of bleaah today
7:49 am
Jacula

My icon is a 'zebu'. (One of my daughter's favourite high-scoring Scrabble words.)
7:49 am
shorty

oh no!!!!!!
7:49 am
abe79

Zebu! imagine that on a triple!
7:49 am
Jacula

abe - So sorry to hear about your redundancy. I hope you find a new job soon.
7:50 am
Jacula

abe - She always does get it on a triple!
7:50 am
abe79

thanks Jacula and Shorty. I've been job-hunting lots. and, now i can babble guilt free at my current job :)
7:51 am
abe79

is a zebu related to a yak?
7:53 am
abe79

...they are...
7:54 am
Jacula

Apparently, there are 75 breeds of zebu (cattle with a hump) and some do have yak genes. They originated in India.
7:55 am
bluephlox

ha, i just learned about zebu's the other day
7:55 am
bluephlox

morning abe
7:56 am
abe79

zebu are very resistant to heat as well...hey bluephlox
7:57 am
Jacula

abe - I think you've just Googled the same site as I did re zebus.
7:57 am
Jacula

Hi AmandaCath.
7:57 am
abe79

wikipedia? lol
7:57 am
Jacula

Hi bluephlox.

bluephlox

8:00 am
Jacula

abe - Do what my daughter does and hold back the tiles for a triple.:)
8:00 am
Jacula

(Then stick an 's' on the end when you get a chance.)
8:00 am
abe79

it's a date phlox! good luck with kitty :). oh, i will Jacula!
8:01 am
bluephlox

8:03 am

Amen, Annie!
8:03 am
amandacath

send some of that rain down south - Mom says they haven't had rain since May!
8:04 am
Atalante

she can have some of ours as well!
8:13 am
amandacath

well, I am good and stuck at 207 words - missing one o and one i...
8:13 am
Jacula

I've still got 133 words to find!
8:15 am
Anniebrook

Jacula, I scrolled back to see your beast of burden...first I learned of a zebu
8:16 am
Douglas

One of Larry the Cucumber's Silly Songs from Veggie Tales is a song about zebu
8:16 am
amandacath

Aha - found the missing o - it's not really related to jac's beast, but it sort of goes into the same category
8:16 am
Jacula

Annie - as you willhave read, it's a great word for a triple score in Scrabble.:)
8:17 am
Jacula

amanda - ooh, thanks! Hadn't spotted the on6/24 before you mentioned it.:)
8:18 am
Anniebrook

Most definitely when you have a good spot to put the Z onto.....I usually get the J, X, Z, Q at the very end. so frustrating
8:18 am
Jacula

I've never played Scrabble on-line. We use the board game at home, though.
8:18 am
Atalante

thank goodness for xi!
8:18 am
abe79

nothing worse than getting stuck with that q, especially when you have no vowels
8:19 am
abe79

Jacula- bluephlox and i used to play everyday online (we were coworkers)
8:19 am
Jacula

Ata - yes, indeed! Mind you, I don't like to play with anyone who insists on using one of those Scrabble dictionaries...
8:19 am
Anniebrook

I havent played in a while---hope I didnt forget those useful little helpers
8:20 am
Atalante

same here!
8:20 am
abe79

i find that babble has 'repressed' many of the two-letter words i know
8:20 am
Jacula

abe - I know what you mean!
8:21 am
Anniebrook

Yes, that's true abe. There was a great game online called wordox but they closed the site.
8:21 am
Atalante

2 letter *and* 3 letter words
8:22 am
abe79

agreed Atalante. online scrabble is fun, but babble is better
8:22 am
Atalante

much better
8:25 am
Atalante

except there are 106 words hiding in the grid that won't show themselves to me ...
8:28 am
raelite

good morning :)
8:28 am
abe79

Hi Raelite
8:28 am
Anniebrook

hi raelite
8:29 am
amandacath

Ata, do you have the babblets?
8:29 am
Jacula

Hi raelite.
8:30 am
Atalante

I've probably got all the babblets and am missing the normal words LOL
8:31 am
Jacula

Probably, Ata.
8:31 am
amandacath

and I've got (at least) 5 pairs of words that are alt. spellings
8:32 am
thatonekid

hi
8:32 am
Atalante

urf. hate alt spellings
8:32 am
amandacath

...of each other - does that make any sense?
8:32 am
Anniebrook

hi thatonekid
8:34 am
Atalante

makes sense, amanda!
8:34 am
helenkeller

hey everyone !
8:34 am

Hi thatonekid and Helen.

hi helen
8:36 am

Hi Helen and thatone!
8:36 am
Jacula

Helen - 104 words to find. When it's 100 I'm going off blackberry picking (weather permitting).
8:37 am
Atalante

105 left here Jac :)
8:38 am
helenkeller

jacula - that sounds nice! it's 8:30 am here, i have tuckpointer who have been grinding & pounding for an hour already - oh have i mentioned I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON - so i came to babble to relax me - 85 to go from last night
8:39 am
Jacula

LOL helen. A friend bought me a fridge magnet that reads 'I don't do mornings!' She knows me well.:)
8:39 am
helenkeller

i need that magnet !!!!
8:39 am
Jacula

What's a tuckpointer?
8:39 am
helenkeller

LOL
8:40 am
helenkeller

tuckpointing is repairing the mortar that is between the bricks of your house - usually they just fill in the cracks- but because my chimenys are in bad shape, they have to grind the old mortar out before they fill in with new
8:40 am
Jacula

Ata - I take it you've found the ar6 & 7? (Where one applies deodorant.)
8:41 am
Atalante

yes! excellent words!!
8:41 am
Uneaixoise

thanks, jac!
8:41 am
helenkeller

and i am getting the chimneys done now because i am getting a new roof - that's the thing i really, really need & have to do the chimenys first so they don't walk all over & get the new, expensive roof all messy :)
8:41 am
Jacula

helen - Ah! I see. We're having cavity wall insulation done in about 3 weeks. It'll be a noisy job.
8:41 am
Jacula

y/w, Une.:)
8:42 am
helenkeller

and what is cavity wall insulation?
8:42 am
amandacath

grining out mortar? eeeeee! That sound is unbearable!
8:42 am
Anniebrook

thanks, Jacula
8:42 am
amandacath

hi Une!
8:42 am
Anniebrook

morning, une
8:42 am
Uneaixoise

hey amanda!!

8:42 am
raelite

holy cow...I just found the 9 all on my own...I am getting better at this!
8:43 am
thatonekid

good job
8:43 am
Anniebrook

rae, what are the first two letters
8:43 am
Jacula

Cavity wall insulation is poly beads pumped into your wall cavities. It warms the house by 35% and keeps it 10% cooler in summer.
8:43 am
raelite

pa
8:43 am
helenkeller

raelite = showoff :)
8:43 am
raelite

lol
8:43 am
Anniebrook

thanks
8:43 am
Jacula

Our council is giving us 60% discount to get it done.
8:43 am
Atalante

I wish we could get that, Jac. but our walls are utterly solid. No cavities to fill in :(
8:44 am
helenkeller

jacula - sounds expensive - is it? i guess depends on the size of your house - so this poly goes between the bricks & the wood/plaster part?
8:45 am
helenkeller

hey - can i get me one of those councils? i could use a discount here!
8:45 am
Jacula

Helen - a cavity wall is 2 brick walls built about 3-4" apart with metal ti4/4 between. The space between the walls is filled.
8:47 am
Jacula

Ata - A friend of mine in Wales (also with solid walls) lined the insides with polystyrene. Don't know if it worked though (was a long time ago).
8:47 am
Jacula

I suppose solar panels will be the next step in a couple of years (when the council discounts it).
8:47 am
helenkeller

that's how your house is built? interesting - mine is brick & then a space, prob. 3-4 inches - then wood beams, then plaster walls - not drywall, but the good old-fashioned, sturdy plaster
8:48 am

A council estate is an area of housing where the houses are owned by the council and the tenants pay rent to occupy the houses. Not all council estates are bad (i.e. sink estates) but some are.

8:58 am
Atalante

they do *tend* to have fairly negative connotations - some are deserved, some aren't. some council houses are *gorgeous*, it really depends on the area - what part of the country and whether its inner city housing or not
8:58 am
helenkeller

ok - just one more question - the # of people on a council (i'm guessing they're elected) is proporational to the number of people in the district? is that accurate?

Of course, while we're in this vein, we may as well point out that long before that issue comes along, the terrorists will have blown us up, and if they haven't the global warming will have flooded us, and if that hasn't happened the fossil feuls will be gone and we'll be back to the dak ages, and if we avoid that the computers will have taken over and enslaved us all...
10:50 am

Vi I think that has been exaggerated but I understand. I was laid off 3 years before retirement age and had to to get money to live. # years made a BIG difference! And then they started taking it back!

10:53 am
TheFiz

yes rae, we've had a relatively stable climate for quite a long time, in geological terms - we are due for some sort of global climactic upheaval, human-induced or otherwise.
10:54 am
Becca Lorum

Hello. I'm back for the third and final time today!
10:54 am
raelite

the gravity thing would be really neat...warm places would be cold and cold places hot. everyone would have to get new compasses
10:54 am
TheFiz

hi becca - welcome back and good luck!
10:54 am
hootowl

Nah! Just read them backwards
10:54 am
Becca Lorum

Thanks Fiz

Now I'm back to the grid!

lol hoot!
10:55 am
Vicuna

So, umm, if necessary I can gather up those worms and start stuffing them back in the can, everyone!
10:55 am
stidmama

the reversal of the poles won't affect gravity, it will just affect magnets... and for a short time the field that protects most inhabited regions from the more dangerous solar radiation would be unprotected.
10:55 am

Hi Becca!

Becca Lorum

Hi Stid! How's it going today?

So, *Vicuna says innocently,* isn't it nice we have a Z in the grid here on Z icon day!
10:56 am
stidmama

going well, Becca! It didn't rain here last night, so the work Tom is doing on the roof is still dry and he can put up the roofing tiles when he gets home from work... *fingers crossed*
10:57 am

teemer
10:57 am
TheFiz

yay for z! stid, your family is so multi-talented. i have to pay someone to do things like that - don't trust myself and *certainly* don't trust lauren!
10:57 am
Becca Lorum

Wow, he's doing the roof himself - I'd never let my fella on my roof. You nevr know what might happen! ;)
10:57 am
Vicuna

(Whaddya know, hootowl's word really worked!)
10:58 am
stidmama

well, if I had money, I would pay someone to do it, Fiz! My Tom is a master at procrastination... had all summer to do this, but waited until I nagged at him last weekend to get a start!
10:58 am
stidmama

it did? *rushes to enter hootowl's word*
10:59 am
TheFiz

ok, when i say "pay someone" i mean "put it off until the last possible moment before the house collapses around our ears". roof, new paint job, and blown-in insulation on the list - we're on a fierce budget for the forseeable future to be able to do it.
10:59 am
stidmama

Yep, that sounds like my Tom, Fiz! LOL and crying at same time.

6:14 pm
helenkeller

here's a thing for all you people !!!!! you never, ever, ever wash your tennis/gym shoes, sneakers, whatever the kids are calling them nowadays - the reason is because the material comprising the sole (no longer just plain old rubber) has millions of tiny air bubbles in it for shock absorbtion & cushioning - when you get the soles wet, the moisture permeates the material & over time lessens the intended springy-ness of the sole
6:14 pm
Dorens

later feather
6:14 pm
Dorens

yes helen, that's true for the fancy and expensive ones, but what about the cheapies I get?
6:15 pm

HelenKeller, as a nurse I have even resorted to washing leather work shoes in my washing machine when I've had bodily fluids gush all over them. I just don't put them in the dryer and let them aire dry instead. (Oh, and don't use bleach on them; that isn't so good for the leather either).

coldsores are caused by herpes simplex, herpes zoster are from chicken pox and also causee the shingles (that I hope no one here ever gets since it is very painful!)

8:10 pm
Nef

Shingles are the same virus that has laid in wait in the body from a case of chicken pox and it causes severe pain along a nerve when it's reactivated in an adult
8:10 pm
TheFiz

we call it the gift that keeps on giving.
8:11 pm

I had chicken pox as a child, and again as an adult when I was about 35

8:12 pm
Nef

What do you do Fiz?
8:12 pm
stidmama

my boys were both vaccinated for varicella, one got a mild case of chickenpox a couple years ago, the other didn't. So I guess it worked for both of them.

8:16 pm

I just try to give my kids the info they need to make informed decisions -- I know that so much they learn in schools and from friends is flawed. I don't know everything, but I know where to look for the info!
8:16 pm
AprilD

the most widely studied and controversial in the states
8:16 pm

bambam your friend is lucky - the disease can be bad but the treatment is pretty awful too, and not highly effectively.
8:16 pm
Bambam

yeah it can be fatal so he was lucky
8:17 pm

april - have a colleague here in RI who used to work for one in olympia - she sorta sniffs her nose at our little, conventional, fixed-site jobby here.

Stid that's all you can do... hope when they are confronted with these things they make good decisions...

8:27 pm

Fiz, if you see in the Washington news about a lady shot in the head in Tacoma Saturday night, I knew her....it is very difficult
8:27 pm
TheFiz

very true bambam. and family volunteering is a good way to get your kids invested in their community, too - serving meals, sorting donations, easy stuff...
8:27 pm
Nef

And Stid, as a parent I found that giving the kids all of the correct information, setting a good example and pointing them in the right direction (over and over again) and praying like crazy that they will make it through their teens okay was the best I could do. They are now adults and I *think* sometimes that we did fairly well.
8:27 pm
AprilD

jill, we are in AWE of the Van sites....
8:28 pm
TheFiz

{{{{{April!}}}}} now my clients are the program staff - not much more functional than the clients but less likely to totally disappear or accidentaly OD.
8:28 pm
Bambam

yes was a good eye-opener for the kids, but this particular orphanage was quite well funded, they were all getting 3 square meals a day, learning music and dance, and going to school .... so the kids thought it was like a fun camp.... so the intended shock tactics failed miserably,,,, it was a very impressive set-up and in no small part to my uncle who teaches agriculture in high school in australia and took 1 year unpaid leave to go help them....
8:29 pm
AprilD

clients becoming staff is how it should be....true Harm Reduction at its' finest
8:30 pm
TheFiz

we have a nascent van site - it's hard to make people feel comfortable in smaller communities, especially if staff and clients don't invest in building community support. we haven't had problems with law enforcement, though.
8:30 pm

i really don't know how much longer the world can continue growing the gap between rich and poor....
