No one would react -- how can you get your kids out to trick or treat when no one in the neighborhood would know what to do. And the religious always would remind you that it is a pagan-Christian thing. Which incidently they do on New Years Eve as well.

Jilli, the Protestant churches here are not keen on All Souls NOR All Saints, and feel (with hefty justification) that Halloween has become secular (and with less justification, they feel it's downright demonic).

however, he's headed to the car repair guys after the tests and I wouldn't want to be the mechanic, the shop manager or anyone connected with them. (we just spent over 1500.00 we didn't really have to spare to fix this same problem)
9:16 am

exactly kt
9:18 am
metaleather

this particular shop has always been pretty good/reliable in the past so I'm hoping they'll step up to the plate and do what's right
9:19 am
metaleather

otherwise, Klingon's blood pressure's gonna go through the roof. and if he keels over, that means I'll go on the warpath.
9:19 am
tndaisy1960

they'd better, or Klingy will have them for breakfast!
9:19 am
Anniebrook

metal, disemboweling is not such a bad idea..after spending all that money and the problem still exists, give them one more chance and I'm sure it will okay if they are threatened....darn mechanics
9:19 am
metaleather

and, Klingon or not, He's nothing compared to me when I'm P.O'd
9:20 am
tndaisy1960

you haven't seen ME P.O.d yet! lol I lose it completely
9:21 am
metaleather

as near as we can figure out... the physical part of the problem was repaired... the mechanical bits were replaced and so on... that means it is in the computer system.

9:22 am
metaleather

oh, to top things off.....
9:24 am
metaleather

when Klingon paid for the last portion of the car repairs... instead of grabbing his Visa CC, he grabbed his Debit card.... which meant that the six charges made to the debit card after the car repairs were paid for were overdrafts... first time in his life Klingon has had that happen... 108.00 OD charges, isn't that a kick in the teeth?
9:25 am
kthdsn

wow that's an expensive overdraft
9:25 am
tndaisy1960

oh no! set it up the way Zilla did...so that savings will cover overdrafts...
9:25 am
metaleather

I tell ya, if he doesn't have a stroke by the time this is all finished it'll be a miracle
9:25 am

and they didn't refund any of it for yo umetal?

9:25 am

Klingon doesn't have a savings account... luckily, I did though and we just transferred the funds over
9:25 am
metaleather

six charges at 28.00 a pop
9:26 am

metal, honestly, if they won't refund any of those charges, then it's time to change banks

banks must work differently over there
9:29 am
metaleather

I agree eva, but think if we can just get the car going and keep it that way withoug Klingon popping his cork... I'll settle for that. If I add doing war with the bank to the mix (which already includes finding a lawyer to sue the * &%$#* who totaled our other car) it could be "fatal"
9:29 am
torgone

I got nicked for an OD cause I was short on the day I made the purchase, even though I covered it before the charge was officially posted ..
9:29 am
kthdsn

here you get an overdraft limit, if you stay within your limit then you pay monthly debit interest, if you go over the limit, it costs £20 or so for each month you are over, no matter what the amount is
9:30 am

no one ever had to war with me when i worked at the bank, if they gave me a valid reason for od's, i was allowed to give back three fees, without approval.

here they are, along with the fried zucchini to dip in it:

Deep Fried Zucchini

1 or 2 fresh zucchinis, washed and thinly sliced
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 to 2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
vegetable oil (for deep frying)

Coat the zucchini slices with flour, then dip each in beaten eggs. Then coat the zucchini slices with Italian seasoned breadcrumbs.

Deep fry the zucchini slices at 375 F until golden brown.

Serve immediately with Garlicky Ranch Dip.

From-Scratch Garlicky Ranch Dip Mix

2 tablespoons dried parsley
2 teaspoon dried chives
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
2 teaspoons lemon pepper
4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon oregano
2 teaspoons garlic powder

In a medium bowl, combine all of the herbs and spices. Store the mix in an airtight
container.

To prepare the dip, combine the following in a medium sized bowl:

1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup buttermilk (or sour cream)
2 tablespoons From-Scratch Garlicky Ranch Dip Mix

Whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk (or sour cream) and the
From-Scratch Garlicky Ranch Dip Mix. Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.

Makes 2 cup


Easy Garlicky Ranch Dip Recipe

1 cup buttermilk (or sour cream)
1 cup mayonnaise
2 garlic cloves, minced

herinfernallady

8:55 pm
SummerRose

What is a troll?
8:55 pm
Andree

was there a troll
8:55 pm
jillibus

summer, there is no meaning to that sa word so we call it a babblet. To get the meaning of weird words, click on the ? beside the word in your list.
8:56 pm
stidmama

wow. the log was acting very strange there for a while... I think it's caught up now.
8:56 pm
SummerRose

T Y, Jilli....I thought I was crazy....
8:56 pm
herinfernallady

8:57 pm
herinfernallady

ok cool that i had lost it for a mo
8:57 pm
stidmama

the troll was apparently a while back, but when I logged in my screen paged through the last three hours or so... and I got a dose of troll... yuck.
8:57 pm
SummerRose

is not nott a word...bad pun...couldn't resist...
8:57 pm
jillibus

There was a troll several hours ago but it left because we ignored it. Trolls are people who enter the chat for no reason except to disrupt the game -- some think it's just another myspace but others are more malicious. If they are we contact Dr_G and he deals with them.
8:58 pm
jillibus

It's nott, but change the woel...
8:59 pm
jillibus

*vowel!!!
8:59 pm
SummerRose

Some people have nothing better to do...it's sad...this site seems so friendly!
8:59 pm
jillibus

This site is a treasure and VERY friendly, summer!
8:59 pm
stidmama

en 5/20 please?
9:00 pm
herinfernallady

I wish to state that i am a reformed troll and if i say 'sodjillbus' i meant sod i meant to say "hello jibus"
9:00 pm
evanonut

i personally am fond of trolls...the make great pets
9:00 pm
jillibus

glad tohear it, herinf!!!
9:00 pm
stidmama

yes nut, but in your case like attracts like... *ducks*
9:00 pm
SummerRose

A friend told me about Babble, and I was intrigued, so I joined! She said you all were a great bunch!
9:01 pm
evanonut

dangit, herinfernal broke her leash
9:01 pm
stidmama

and your friend, SummerRose, was absolutely correct! speaking only for myself, of course.... :-)
9:01 pm
jillibus

9:02 pm
herinfernallady

Evanout what is in your drama today, you are usually nice or friendly?Whats bite your arse today

SummerRose

OMG! I finished and there are fireworks for real!
9:02 pm
jillibus

yw :)
9:03 pm
Andree

yay summer
9:03 pm
Ankhorite

Yeah, Summer, the joke is that trolls smell funny, so people will say things like, "Eeew... smell something?" when a troll is around -- but you never speak directly to the troll. If they start YAY SUMMER!!! if they start blocking the chat, go get a drink and come back...by that time, they're gone.
9:03 pm
jillibus

WOWIE SummerRose!!!!
9:03 pm
herinfernallady

yay summer.
9:03 pm
Andree

oa5/10 please
9:03 pm
evanonut

ha ha, someone was dissin christmas earlier. said they hated it, then that theyweren't religious...rubbed me the wrong way, becuase God stands by me through so much.
9:03 pm
Ankhorite

Andree, water in the desert.
9:03 pm
stidmama

YAY summer rose!
9:03 pm
SummerRose

OOO, I would have HATED that!
9:03 pm
stidmama

hi Ankh!
9:03 pm
herinfernallady

Um i dont mean to rattle a cage but a lot of christian stuff reflects very old pagan stuff
9:04 pm
Ankhorite

Well, a lot of religious people don't like Christmas, and it didn't used to be celebrated as it is now.
9:04 pm
Ankhorite

Hi, Stid!!
9:04 pm
Andree

thx ank
9:04 pm
jillibus

please, can we get off religion?
9:04 pm
Ankhorite

Sure, Jilli.
9:04 pm
evanonut

see ank, it's not christmas they hate, it's the commercial holiday though.
9:05 pm
evanonut

sorry jilli, that's why it was in my bio, rather than have a confrontation in chat.
9:05 pm
herinfernallady

ok sorry once again apoligise for chain rattling
9:06 pm
herinfernallady

ok i have 49 words without looking at the list
9:06 pm
evanonut

s'okay infernal
9:06 pm
jillibus

9:06 pm
Ankhorite

Hey, where's Bouvet Island? And Infernal, Evan, if you wanna continue I'll participate, just pick my email up from my profile. :)
9:06 pm
herinfernallady

um im fine now i spoke and i need to ask if x is used today as i don't want to go to liketys list yet
9:07 pm
jillibus

x doesn't start a word
9:07 pm
evanonut

ank...i have yahoo and msn, but my profile is pretty clear on my opinion. and no clue where bouvet island is...why?
9:07 pm
evanonut

and x is used however
9:07 pm
SummerRose

yes, it ends a word
9:08 pm
Ankhorite

Because Evanonut, "Bouvet Island" is what shows up next to your name in chat?
9:08 pm
jillibus

because you have no flag, on purpose, nuttynut!
9:08 pm
evanonut

although how that word can happen is beyond me
9:08 pm
evanonut

what! *looks for flag* - - - *GASP*
9:08 pm
Ankhorite

At yahoo and msn, are you still Evanonut?
9:08 pm
SummerRose

or, for that matter, un-talk?
9:08 pm
Ankhorite

Summer has no flag either!
9:09 pm
stidmama

Nut -- you forgot our takeover of cote d'ivoire, didn't you?
9:09 pm
herinfernallady

cool i must try to figure where the x is
9:09 pm
jillibus

nut, how about the creation of those sorta male sopranos?
9:09 pm
SummerRose

Oh, I'd better fix that....
9:09 pm
evanonut

stid, they said i can't have cote divoir
9:09 pm
jillibus

who said?
9:09 pm
evanonut

but i thought they had a different title,
9:10 pm
stidmama

oh bummer! so what country are we going to invade and can I still be kitchen mama?
9:10 pm
herinfernallady

evans in norway
9:10 pm
SummerRose

Now do I have a flag?
9:10 pm
evanonut

what you call them, castrados
9:10 pm
jillibus

castrati
9:10 pm
Ankhorite

Or eu...
9:10 pm
herinfernallady

ok even it seems is somewhere on this planet
9:10 pm
SummerRose

nope...I guess I'm from Antarctica....
9:10 pm
stidmama

castratos are men who were boy sopranos who lost the ability to bear children, ensuring their continued singerhood...
9:10 pm
evanonut

ah yes, that sounds right
9:10 pm
Ankhorite

Not for me, Summer, but let me reload and see if it shows up.
9:11 pm
stidmama

maybe you need to refresh summerorse?
9:11 pm
evanonut

didja click update summer?
9:11 pm
herinfernallady

i think the comment there stid is snippy snippy
9:11 pm
Ankhorite

After refresh, still no flag for Summer for me.
9:12 pm
SummerRose

I did...and I updated my profile...maybe I'll just be a woman of mystery LOL
9:12 pm
stidmama

I am scared to refresh for fear the logwill go weird on me again...
9:12 pm
herinfernallady

hey jill can i have a clue for that x usage
9:12 pm
Ankhorite

Leave be, Stid, refreshing did me no good. Maybe someone can mention it to Dr. God if it doesn't cure on its own.
9:12 pm
SummerRose

herin, we've been talking about that word all along...read back...
9:13 pm
evanonut

okay, i'm off to bed guys,...i'll be off the soap box tomorrow.
9:13 pm
stidmama

LOL lady --- though the practice was outlawed a long time ago, still a few men who had childhood accidents have become castrati.
9:13 pm
Andree

back later to finish
9:13 pm
herinfernallady

scratchs head and looks confused
9:13 pm

9:14 pm
stidmama

summer -- that's the word that ends in x
9:14 pm
Ankhorite

Infernal. Go back 100 years. A woman who dared to speak in public was thought to be un***ed. She de-gendered herself, socially speaking.
9:14 pm
Ankhorite

Got it, Evan!

9:19 pm
stidmama

9:19 pm
Ankhorite

SummerRose, LOL! You can try to write a quick email to Dr.God at the bottom of the page, see the red SEND THEM blurb? That's him. Be nice, he rules our world!

9:20 pm
stidmama

not bad at all, greeny! that's the sort of weather we have here sometimes, would have been nice...
9:20 pm
Ankhorite

The weather was gorgeous in Northern Virginia but we get very few kids -- most go to school gyms and churches.
9:21 pm
greengeeny

9:21 pm

9:27 pm
GreyWoulf

9:28 pm
Scrabbler

Hey Stid

Scrabbler

LOL Grey Woulf
9:28 pm
stidmama

interesting how the formerly innocent word "fairy" has morphed into a pc word "faerie"
9:29 pm
Kitrine

ey6/24 please
9:29 pm
SummerRose

Yes, Woulfe, if the flag is up....oh, God, I'm ROFL and going to wet my panties!
9:29 pm

9:29 pm
GreyWoulf

Stid -- I didn't get to see your icon yesterday as I didn't play -- I was trying to get out of work in time to take my girl out and was too tired to hunt after they were in bed
9:29 pm
Scrabbler

Guess what? I love Scrabble too! I do play by "house rules" with my friends, though---no time constraints.
9:29 pm
jillibus

stidmama

okay, done. You might have to refresh.
9:30 pm
SummerRose

We have a great variation...We reuse the colored tiles...So if a tile is already placed, and you make a word with it, you get ceredit for it, too! It's a blast!
9:30 pm
Scrabbler

What is your record lady?
9:30 pm
stidmama

stidgrant on the left, stidmatt on the right.

Scrabbler

Stid, tell the boys that look quite cool.
9:32 pm
jillibus

oh, you switched back, stid -- give them my love (if it's not too mushy for guys)
9:32 pm
SummerRose

I play the version on the computer...I'll have to look it up- I am close to 800 playing by myself....
9:32 pm
stidmama

9:32 pm
stidmama

Thanks Jill and Scrabbler, will do.

9:33 pm
jillibus

sn is like grinding your teeth with a diff beginning, stid
9:33 pm

9:33 pm
stidmama

thanks woulf!
9:33 pm
stidmama

and thanks also Jill...
9:33 pm
GreyWoulf

Can you guess which book we have been reading here lately?
9:33 pm
jillibus

dang, I got there first with the sn!!!
9:33 pm
Ankhorite

Stid, thanks! I coulda *sworn* I typed that before...
9:34 pm
stidmama

three to go... *in determined mode*
9:34 pm
herinfernallady

oh grey are you reading my fav book?
9:34 pm
SummerRose

Another way of cluing that tu7 word is its resemblance to being taught privately....
9:34 pm
Ankhorite

Go Mama Go! Go Mama Go!
9:34 pm
GreyWoulf

woohoo -- at the halfway point
9:34 pm
jillibus

it's like my fave unword -- snile...
9:34 pm
Scrabbler

Summer, I also play against Maven, but I have never gotten 800 points--wow. Have you ever played SuperScrabble which came out about 2 yrs ago?
9:34 pm
Ankhorite

I heard about the 800 pt game
9:35 pm
SummerRose

No...Is it fun?
9:35 pm
GreyWoulf

lady -- we didn't read it tonight, but it is a regular in the rotation, along with Millions of Cats and The Five Chinese Brothers
9:36 pm
stidmama

I LOVE and ADORE the Five Chinese brothers. When I was a child I had the book and the little 45 record...
9:36 pm
herinfernallady

cool.
9:36 pm
Scrabbler

It is way more fun! Huge grid with quadruple letter and word tiles, and the potential to get a double-double. It is so much less constraining and more wide open.
9:36 pm
SummerRose

Scrabbler, you have to divide that in two- I said I was playing alone-so I scored around 400 or so...I'll look it up..bbias...
9:37 pm
stidmama

two...
9:37 pm
Ankhorite

Scrabbler, Dear One won't play it with me! I asked for it for a solstice present, but they don't wanna. :(
9:37 pm
jillibus

go stid!!!
9:37 pm
GreyWoulf

I am finding that one of the best parts of being a parent is sharing my favorite books from when I was little with my kids :)
9:37 pm
Scrabbler

Oh, OK, Summer. I have hit 400 for myself---if I get the high-scoring tiles.
9:38 pm
jillibus

solstice present? What a neat isea...
9:38 pm
herinfernallady

care bears are back so are teenagemutant turles
9:38 pm
Scrabbler

Ankh--so you have SuperScrabble?
9:38 pm
stidmama

I think it would make a great solstice present, but can't let on what we are getting the children because I have one reading over my shoulder right now.
9:38 pm
SummerRose

I just looked it up- My top score is 484 and I have Champion rating...
9:39 pm
Scrabbler

Hi Matt, Hi Grant!
9:39 pm
Scrabbler

You are a ScrabbleMaster, Summer.
9:39 pm
stidmama

LOL scrabbler, no real names, please...
9:39 pm
Ankhorite

No, Scrabbler, I don't, but I wish I did, hence my sad-puppy-eyes and talk about presents! :)
9:39 pm
herinfernallady

Oh, naughtY scrabble! got it. But I think the smutty words are in the official lists, aren't they? Not the guide which is used in schools, but in the tournament lists?

Jilli, if you give me all the clues I need, you'll starve, go eat!
9:41 pm

9:41 pm

Heh! Well, I --hear-- tht the official SOWPODS list has reeeeealllly feeeeeelthy words. But I don't know.

In French class, we had to play in French..oooo, that was hard...tres horrible!
9:42 pm

summer thats a great way to test vocab
9:43 pm
Ankhorite

¡Que dolor! Whoops, wrong language.
9:43 pm
SummerRose

I know, and you know what? There are a great many words in English which come from the French, thanks to the Norman invasion....
9:43 pm

okay, need to help the kids with homework. I need the NO 6/27 please....

What does SOWPODS mean?
9:45 pm
stidmama

thanks Ankh and Rose....
9:45 pm
Ankhorite

Which is why all the American legal words that look like Latin aren't, they're Norman French, that litigious batarde!
9:45 pm
stidmama

off to do homework and back later... I hope.
9:45 pm
GreyWoulf

so long, stid -- see you soon
9:45 pm
Scrabbler

??? Fireworks, Stid?
9:45 pm
Ankhorite

SOWPODS is the list used by everyone in the English-speaking world except USA, Thailand, Israel and one other. It's a big giant list of what's acceptable in international tournament scrabble play.
9:46 pm
Ankhorite

The game here uses the Enable dictoinary, which is different and WAY smaller.
9:46 pm
Ankhorite

I mean, Babble here uses Enable. Scrabble here in the US uses a different list.
9:47 pm
herinfernallady

there have to keep legal words in latin as you cant convert the context to an english word
9:47 pm
Scrabbler

I just read about SOWPODS on Wikipedia---now I understand the name.
9:47 pm
herinfernallady

useless fact of the day, legal langauge or jargon is called legalese
9:48 pm
Ankhorite

Yeah, that's a good place to get up on it, but you'd need one of the Scrabble mavens to explain all the politics of it for you, I'm not into it, except the USA people gripe endlessly about all the Scots words in SOWPODS, which they say should not be considered "English"
9:48 pm
SummerRose

SOWPODS is an anagram of two dictionaries- the OSW (Official Scrabble Words) + OSPD (Official Scrabble Players Dictionary)
9:49 pm
GreyWoulf

If you want more useless facts -- try this site -- http://lexicon.typepad.com/triviums/
9:49 pm
Ankhorite

No, Infernal, they keep them in Latin or Norman French for no good reason at all except habit, and the prestige of saying something "laypeople" can't understand.
9:49 pm
SummerRose

Oh, I love it! "Triviums"!
9:50 pm
Ankhorite

"et al" is short for "et alia" which just means "and others" -- no good reason not to say it in common speech. Just hoity-toity! :)
9:51 pm
Scrabbler

Interesting site, Woulf.
9:51 pm
SummerRose

I read many books written in the Regency period or about the Regncy period, and that has helped me a lot- words like "sods" mean something to me...That was slang back in those days.
9:52 pm
GreyWoulf

I forget how I found it, I think I got it from Aaron Williams website. He is the artist who writes a D&D inspired comic strip called 'Nodwick'
9:52 pm
SummerRose

The lower class (men especially) talked "cant"- chickens were "cackling cheats"
9:53 pm
Ankhorite

To be "gay" once meant that a woman was a prostitute; no reference to orientation at all.
9:53 pm
Scrabbler

There must be so much funny and interesting material from the UK, and the rest of the world, that I have no idea even exists. I do appreciate hearing about these types of sites.
9:55 pm
SummerRose

My favorite phrase from that period is argle-bargle-meaning to not talk honestly. "I don't want no argle-bargle from you, laddie."
9:55 pm
Scrabbler

Oh, balderdash!
9:55 pm
GreyWoulf

Examining how language evolves over time is always fascinating -- most people today don't even know that a faggot was a bundle of sticks to burn in the fire
9:56 pm
SummerRose

Or a fag was a short cigarette...
9:57 pm
GreyWoulf

Another fun game, Scrabbler!
9:57 pm
Ankhorite

...or that "faggot" still means younger student assigned to be a servant to an older student in all-boy schools in Britain (the "public" schools, which U.S. folks would call "private" schools).
9:57 pm
GreyWoulf

I didn't even know that one, Ankh
9:57 pm
Scrabbler

So many games, so many books, and not enough time!
9:57 pm
SummerRose

I love entomolgy! (I hope I'm not referring to bugs!)
9:57 pm
GreyWoulf

Amen, Scrabbler
9:58 pm
SummerRose

Amen, also, Scrabbler
9:58 pm
Scrabbler

I am delirious with fatigue, and must go to bed. (I think you mean etymology, Summer.)
9:58 pm
Ankhorite

Oh, dear, Rose, you like etymology. Entomology is bugs.
9:59 pm
SummerRose

Yes, that's it. I have dsylexai...LOL
9:59 pm

LOL!
9:59 pm

So Scrabbler, you're all fagged out, then? Nitey nite!

My bio teacher called the an** the "hardest working part of the body" and I argued back that uteri work pretty hard now and again...
10:19 pm

I think is is a question of total time of use, Summer

Lickety did a new thing, did you know? Now, when you type two letters and hit enter, it bounces you down the list to that sectoin automagically. IF there are words starting with those two letters -- so SE would work for this grid, but SB won't.
10:20 pm

why not, pappa?

kalea

lol pappa...........with my puter know-how, i feel good to even USE a site, never mind designing one
10:43 pm
smooth_pappa

well, maybe if I were more savvy, it would be easier... but every time I think I'm ready to publish it, I find something else wrong... and this things isn't even that complicated. A simple click and buy, with an easy interface, and simple graphics. No animations, music, or video.
10:43 pm
GreyWoulf

Summer -- I used to be a night owl -- there are those here at Babble who can remember how this time last year I would be up until way late just to chat --- but my new job requires me to get up at 6 am so I can't stay as late as I used to
10:43 pm

designing websites isn't so bad -- making them look good on most browsers is the tough bit! Hoping the new Internet Explorer follows web standards a little closer.
