I do have a gold hamster on a purple background, if this isn't purple enough. This leans towards blue, a bit. (reload to see me) What's our goal, solid purple? Royal purple? And why are we doing this?

If you have Babbler on your friends list, click her name there. Or find her in Who's Online, but I'm not sure she is. Is there somewhere else to look? Night, Nan!

I didn't know that about Lickety's page. And here's my perennial Lickety Commercial: if you are using the page, remember to click some of the ad links at right -- even if you flip right back, he makes some fraction of a penny towards the cost of running the site. :)

Well, because Dr. God didn't set it up that way, Rose. But you should be able to copy and paste the URL of the pic... or do what Jilli says! :)

I haven't found a new word in the last 15 mins, it is definately not an easy one.
3:41 am
Haz1558
I had high hopes for 'ganch', a Scottish word we use for one who talks rubbish. Alas, it's not accepted.
3:41 am
saphyre
easy words that are hard to find
3:41 am

There is a lovely g7/40 singular of an old fashioned wellington

sorry
3:53 am
Bloodaxe
i think i'm still a little too tired for the grid this morning.
i had a late night celebrating the great victories back home.
3:54 am
Haz1558
Not a Bush fan, then?
3:55 am
Bloodaxe
i wouldn't say i'm not a fan of him. he's rather quirky and entertaining. but i don't agree with the vast majority of his policies and a democracy isn't much of a democracy when one party controls all branches of the government.
3:56 am
Haz1558
Try telling that to Tony Blair!
3:56 am
Bloodaxe
plus, i definately am NOT a rumsfield fan. his resingation was the best news i had heard all year.
3:56 am
lynxxx
if the US people her are any guage, then I don't think he has one supporter! whenever his name has been mentioned over the last few months it just causes this huge surge of derision and hatred, I have been amazed at the reactions
3:57 am
Haz1558
Is Faeriekae not on his side?
3:57 am
FMitch
faerie stood up for him very strongly in one discussion a few months back
3:58 am
Bloodaxe
this may sound a little arrogant and mean, but i think that most americans who appreciate other cultures and travel generally are more open minded and therefore not members of the republican party.
3:58 am
Haz1558
A lo4/4 supporter, then!
3:58 am
lynxxx
I honestly can't remember one person with a kind word to say about Bush. .... I must have missed that then FM
3:58 am
Bloodaxe
he does have a strong base in the states, but his policies haven't made being an american abroad very easy.
3:59 am
lynxxx
TY for those 3 Haz !
3:59 am
Haz1558
I can imagine, Bloodaxe.
3:59 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, lynxxx!
4:01 am
Bloodaxe
speaking of blair haz, has he given in and set a date for his resignation?
4:01 am
Haz1558
You must be joking. Not while Cherie has breath in her body.
4:01 am
Haz1558
He has hinted that it will be at a time of his choosing sometime next year.
4:01 am
Bloodaxe
haha...i didn't think so. but he did say it would be sometime this year, right?
4:02 am
saphyre
If I spoke politics in "social" gatherings you would hear quite a few good words about Bush from me, but this is where I have fun, not discuss politics
4:04 am
Bloodaxe
well last night we drank a lot of beer, smoked some cuban cigars, and had a good time.
4:04 am
Haz1558
And your head this morning is clear and functioning well, you said?
4:05 am
Bloodaxe
but saph, dicussing politics IS fun. at least for me. i guess that's why i'm a political science major.
4:05 am
lynxxx
I understand saph - but I haven't minded the conversations at all. they give a fantastc 'true' insight to the various countries that you don't get elsewhere.
4:05 am
Bloodaxe
hahaha..not quite haz, but i'm definately in a good mood.
4:06 am
Haz1558
There was an article in the paper yesterday indicating that the younger you are, the less you suffer from a hangover. Make the most of it while you are young - a few years from now, you'll not feel quite so chirpy after a night like last night!
4:06 am
saphyre
well then enjoy the conversation - but to make general statements insinuating that asll babblers are against Bush is ignorant.
4:07 am
Haz1558
And it's time I was off - RDA this morning and my duties await. Back later!
4:07 am
Bloodaxe
point taken haz.
4:07 am

sorry Saph! I really didn't mean to generalise - I hope I haven't offended you. maybe its just that the 'negative' voices have been much louder.

6:42 am
Merk
Speaking of grids, I only know two aa 4 words. The first one aa4,5 ... mine won't go there because I cannot get to the plural. Is there one I've never learned?
6:43 am
jimmack
Only the 3rd letter is different in the aa4 words.
6:43 am
Lain
sand use lickety's list lol
6:44 am
Merk
That pretty much narrows it down to the same third letter that in the word that I know. Must be a weird ending then.
6:45 am
Merk
Oh, I guess there is another possibility.
6:45 am
jimmack
Merk, make sure you're looking at all the options for the starting letter.
6:46 am

11:24 am
Dorens
it is a fantastic aquarium....my son & daughter in law's wedding reception was there... very different!
11:25 am
caitlyn
WOW thats different Dorens
11:25 am
Bloodaxe
Wow. I've never heard of a wedding reception at an aquarium. That's very unique. Was this recent?
11:26 am
Dorens
particularly since the aquarium is built heightwise around a huge shark tank in the center...so you can wander up a circular ramp to the top floor.....sseven years ago....they are different sorts of people though. it was actually a double wedding, her sister married at the same time.. service was at harvard memorial church...needed somewhere else for the party, and what a party!
11:27 am
Bloodaxe
that sounds really cool.
11:27 am

2:48 pm
jillibus
smooth -- it's ok but could be friendlier if you smiled a bit and looked toward the camera -- IMHO
2:48 pm
helenkeller
smooth - lol, k, since you asked, you def don't look angry, the pic does indeed show your face, doesn't really look like a mugshot, but you kind of look like you've just seen something scary, but not terrible, like, let's say, oh , your first child just being born - my suggestion, let's see some teeth - ie, a great big smile :)
