night flosey and nan

1:23 am

mymuseisme

nite nan

1:23 am

Angb

Look people. I think Enemy has a point, and perhaps its not a good thing to have a go at him/her. As I see it, you say no politics, but in fact the rules you are suggesting "exist" are in a way the same sort of thing. Obviously enemy has strong feelings about these sort of issues. I think I have the gist of it - I fell rather sad that someone would get so upset by what is usually a nice chat log.

1:23 am

jillibus

What rules? What point?

1:23 am

mrpresident

ang... enemy was rude yesterday and is the same today... whatever

1:23 am

Kate44

nite nan and flosey

1:23 am

mamabear

is politics what this is all about ?

1:24 am

renfield

the pointy end of a stick?

1:24 am

renfield

nite nan!

1:24 am

hurshy

if i have understood this correctly, enemy was kindly defending my right to talk about politics in the chat, yes.

1:24 am

helenkeller

i talk politics in here all the time - i like to talk politics - i've had some great conversations in babble about politics AND religion, imagine that

1:24 am

EnemyisME

mrP I was not rude yesterday

1:24 am

jillibus

oh

1:25 am

EnemyisME

you show me where I was rude

1:25 am

chic

I don't do politics of any sort; they are all criminals...

1:25 am

renfield

arrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh

1:25 am

EnemyisME

I absolutely was not rude yesterday

1:25 am

mrpresident

check you manners with lickety

1:26 am

EnemyisME

you are a liar

1:26 am

mrpresident

so, onto bigger and better stuff... who needs clues :)

1:26 am

hurshy

while i often prefer the subtle approach, it often causes one's points to go completely unnoticed

1:27 am

renfield

arrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhh

1:27 am

Ankhorite

I stay off of anything I think is making anyone uncomfortable.

1:27 am

EnemyisME

I will talk to lickety anytime and you simply are a liar

1:27 am

mamabear

enemy - we might have diferences of opinon in here, but name calling is tabu

1:27 am

mrpresident

oh ren! fear not! I can defend myself!

1:28 am

bundy

it's easy to misunderstand text but i will go for the change of topic ---- what does the 8 start with?

1:28 am

helenkeller

rut-roh

1:28 am

Ankhorite

*wince*

1:28 am

hurshy

ren, on the other hand, prefers repetition, a highly effective method

1:28 am

mamabear

bundy - it starts with an F

1:28 am

bundy

thanks mamabear - cute nick btw

1:28 am

mrpresident

In Parliament if someone calls another member a liar, he or she is escorted out.

1:36 am

Ankhorite

Enemy, I'm sorry you're hurt and I'm really sorry that MrP and Lickety are being hurt; I hope you'll change your mind.

1:36 am

jillibus

is this about someone grousing about not getting lickety's clues soon enough yesterday?

1:36 am

EnemyisME

they are liars

1:36 am

Scarlet

This is absurd. From an extraordinary game to flinging feces in the sandbox. This is/was enjoyable, and I'm nauseated by the venom. Goodnight.

1:36 am

Morning dear gang... what's happening here?

1:36 am

Born in Arizona, got a condo made of stona.....

1:37 am

renfield

hey sprite!

1:37 am

hurshy

ahem... at the risk of being... something...
while enemy has been brusque,
i believe there has been commensurate condescension,
and therefore, perhaps, if we would all apologize for our respective existences
it might
so to speak

1:37 am

hurshy

clear the air

1:37 am

rockimggramma

thnx Angb...got the clue

1:37 am

Ankhorite

I do!

1:38 am

1:38 am

chic

it's getting trollish in here...

1:38 am

hurshy

i'll go first. i am sorry

1:38 am

This kind of nonsense is rare, thank goodness

1:39 am

Calm down people. This is a good community. And a bit of miscommunication is normal every now and then in the best of companies...

1:39 am

mamabear

it is not, Scarlet..... this too shall pass. Please don't let it change your enjoyment of the game as well as the usual friendly chat

1:39 am

rockimggramma

could I pls get a clue for ta 7/32?

1:39 am

Ankhorite

Me, too, Scarlet, I think it's a one-time thing; someone misunderstood something, said something, and then things got harsh. Here's hoping it gets better.

1:39 am

Angb

Scarlet it happens seldom.I think most people think about other people feelings. But it misunderstandings can happen in text logs.

1:40 am

mrpresident

everyone here is lovely! love you all... (people who call me a liar are on the outer!! :))

1:40 am

1:59 am

mkl

Hey all. Anything exciting going on?

1:59 am

jillibus

I don't want to know how they harvest caviar!

yummmmmie, Ankh - thanks :)

2:04 am

jillibus

Ankh -- nice new icon, but -- arctic animals today's theme????

2:04 am

DRBERNABO

Took me long enough to realize there is the name of a US Senator in the grid. Its only the state next door. Sigh.

2:04 am

Ankhorite

No, I'm off by a week. I'm trying to find a proper icon for today, in between fetching tofu dogs and pudding and whatnot for the crowd in the hot tub.

2:05 am

Ankhorite

Oh, Bernabo, what IS that? A... a dark sapphire? superdark topaz?

2:05 am

Ankhorite

YW, Sprite. :)

2:05 am

jillibus

sorry, ankh -- forgot you were so busy with the bathing bunch

2:05 am

sprite

Dr, don't feel bad, it is perfectly okay for babblers to be blind for the obvious. Goes with the territory... or something.

2:06 am

Kate44

***********fireworks***********

2:06 am

DRBERNABO

I'm not sure of the type of gem, I just know its a titanic one...

Txs, Bernabo, it's gorgeous... hmm. Not the Hope Diamond, surely?

2:08 am

sprite

It is pretty, DrB :)

2:08 am

Ankhorite

I bet is is, and I feel like a dunce for not recognizing it. It's right down the street from my old apt.

2:09 am

DRBERNABO

Think of Kate Winslet wearing just this diamond

2:09 am

sprite

I rest my case about the blind to the obvious thing, Anhk ;)

2:10 am

sprite

*hands DrB a towel to keep from drooling on his keyboard*

2:29 am

jillibus

2:31 am

Ankhorite

A desperate hamster will do a lot to lose weight, Jilli!

2:31 am

jillibus

Ankhorite

Awww...sheesh... poor Lickety! Poor you!

2:47 am

Ankhorite

Enjoy, Lynxxx...

2:48 am

mrpresident

kthdsn

my husband didn't come home from work last night and I don't know where he is

5:18 am

FranMag

has he done that before?

5:19 am

kthdsn

he doesn't have a cell phone, the phone at the pub he works in was cut off and I can't find numbers for any of his friends

5:19 am

kthdsn

no fran it's not like him at all

5:19 am

sprite

Argh! That is not nice. Did you have a fight? Or is he missing without any reason?

5:19 am

lynxxx

oh kate - he probably just had too much to drink and is sleeping it off somewhere.

5:19 am

kthdsn

he's not at the police station or the hospital, I can't think why he would stay out without calling

5:20 am

kthdsn

I've had 3 hours sleep and I'm in a bit of a panic

5:20 am

Ankhorite

*trots in to hold Kth's hand*

ty ank

5:20 am

Ankhorite

Surely, if it were an accident, the police would have called by now. So I'm with Lynxx, perhaps he is sleeping it off.

5:21 am

sprite

That's not something we can cheer away for you... I pray for you all is well. You keep talking to us for as long as you like, to keep a hold on the panic.

5:21 am

FranMag

i'm with lynxxx, he's probably at a friend's house

5:21 am

Ankhorite

Kth, are we tying up your phone line?

5:21 am

kthdsn

I guess so, it's just out of character for him and it's so easy to worry

5:21 am

Ankhorite

And I'm lost, what time is it where you are?

5:21 am

kthdsn

no ank, broadband

he works in a pub, usually home by 3am at the very latest

5:22 am

Ankhorite

Well then... the pub's cleaning crew might be in by now?

5:22 am

FranMag

does he drive or walk home?

5:23 am

kthdsn

I don't think they have a cleaning crew, he walks home we don't have a car

5:23 am

Ankhorite

*keeps patting Kth's hand*

5:23 am

sprite

any friend living near the pub who can go take a look for you?

5:23 am

Ankhorite

And with your three girls, you can't go look. Hmm. Is the pub near a shop; if so, could you ask them to look in?

5:24 am

FranMag

how far is the pub?

5:24 am

lynxxx

He may even be doing another shift at the pub Kate. He'll turn up or contact you soon I am sure.

5:24 am

kthdsn

it's not far away but I don't want to leave the house in case he comes back and I've locked him out

5:25 am

Ankhorite

Lock him out! Leave a note on the front door, telling him you & the girls have run to the pub and will be right back.

5:26 am

Ankhorite

Perhaps a neighbor would stay by your phone for you?

5:26 am

kthdsn

I'd rather stay here with nice company to be honest, I'm probably just being silly

5:26 am

kthdsn

we don't have any nice neighbours lol

5:26 am

sprite

I can understand your worry if he always lets you know if he is going to be late. Perhaps he thought you'd be asleep by now and did not want to wake you?

5:26 am

Ankhorite

*pat-pat, pat-pat*

5:27 am

kthdsn

probably sprite, thanks for being here everyone

5:28 am

kthdsn

I'm going to look for some words, take my mind of worrying, he's a late sleeper so if he is at someone's house sleeping it off he won't have woken up yet

5:29 am

Ankhorite

*pat-pats some more and starts to snore a bit herself*

5:29 am

sprite

*yells in a kind but very sharp voice: "Wake up, you dork, your wife is worried!*

5:30 am

kthdsn

5:30 am

kthdsn

I managed a smile :)

5:30 am

sprite

well done :)

5:30 am

Ankhorite

*is not herself roused by Sprite's stern tone; schlumps over and begins to snore more loudly*

5:31 am

sprite

Ah well, can't work for everyone... but let me see... you don't HAVE a wife, now have you, Ankh? You probably did not feel spoken to :)

5:32 am

lynxxx

schlump? that word would fit nicely with the other weird words in this grid

5:32 am

sprite

I think I need those weird words, don't have any schlump like words yet.

5:32 am

kthdsn

eeerrrr the weird lady over the road just threw a load of rubbish on the grass

5:33 am

sprite

how dare she!

5:33 am

Ankhorite

*snores on, disregarding*

5:34 am

kthdsn

she's an old asian lady, she comes outside and pours he cooking fat down the drain, and she throws bread crumbs for birds, but she through a load of paper and stuff too this time

5:34 am

sprite

*wonders if she is being ignored by Ankh - considers working on her tone*

5:38 am

Ankhorite

Urf? urrpmf?

5:39 am

sprite

Now there's a good girl - wanna beer?

5:39 am

Ankhorite

Kth, you're going to just have to imagine me holding your hand cuz I really am falling asleep here. Sprite, you're closer to her time zone, right?

5:39 am

Ankhorite

*considers whether hamsters like beer for breakfast*

5:40 am

sprite

I am and I am here. You go have a good sleep and hamster back to us later :)

5:40 am

kthdsn

5:40 am

Ankhorite

5:40 am

Ankhorite

5:41 am

sprite

Ankhorite

I don't know anyone close by and I don't have any phone numbers for anyone he might be with

6:54 am

gramma

kate, call family, friends whoever you need to and find that guy! The police should be told he's missing.

6:55 am

ren8

I don't know how you are staying so calm I would be doing my pieces by now, you have to find a way to find him

6:55 am

Flossy

6:56 am

jean1953

kthdsn ive just read your chat, keep your faith that he will return and hang on in there as they say

6:57 am

Flossy

Too far from me to help sorry

6:57 am

kthdsn

I'm pretty sure he's just gone out drinking and crashed at someones house, he might still be sleeping, it's just worrying not being able to contact him

6:57 am

jean1953

yes too far from somerset as well unfortunatley

6:57 am

Jacula

Hi, just returned. Katie - no 'phone at the place where he works?

I don't know, I've only walked past it a couple of times

7:01 am

Jacula

Is it far from where you live, Katie?

7:02 am

kthdsn

like blood said, he's probably trying to get up the courage to face me lol

7:02 am

kthdsn

no it's just down the road but I don't want to leave in case he calls or comes home, he left his keys behind

7:02 am

caitlyn

7:05 am

jean1953

Anniebrook

hi pam

8:08 am

mattygroves

Hey Kate - thinking of you. Where are you based - anything I can do to help?

8:08 am

Anniebrook

I am assuming that there is no way you can reach him (cell phone). Perhaps he is with a friend, is there anyone you can call to help you?

8:08 am

kthdsn

thanks matty I don't think there's anything you can do, it's nice to know you all care though

8:09 am

kthdsn

I have the number of the woman who gave him a list to work but she's not answering, and I have no other way of contacting him or anyone he knows

8:09 am

ExWren

What about his family, have you contacted them?

8:09 am

mattygroves

Or his boss?

8:10 am

kthdsn

no I wouldn't want to worry his family they live far away and don't travel, his boss has no phone it was cut off

8:10 am

Wolvie

wow. bad deal, kth

8:10 am

sunny09

any of his friends?

8:11 am

kthdsn

I don't have any numbers or addresses for them sunny

8:11 am

sunny09

would someone have called you if he didn't show for work

8:11 am

kthdsn

yeah

8:11 am

mattygroves

I'd phone his family, Kate, really - you must be frantic, and maybe he's contacted him. What about the police?

8:12 am

kthdsn

I'm assuming he must be alright because people he works with all have our number so they would have called

8:12 am

kthdsn

I tried the police and the hospital he's not at either

8:12 am

majmom

has he ever done this to you before

8:12 am

Anniebrook

keep trying the woman who gave him the work list...I cant imagine how you feel...

8:12 am

kthdsn

no it's very out of character

8:12 am

Anniebrook

how late is he?

8:13 am

kthdsn

did I say list, I meant lift

8:13 am

mattygroves

Really - phone his family. If he's contacted them, you'll know something, and if not, they may have ideas of who to contact.

8:13 am

majmom

oh lord you must be frantic-how long since he should have been home?

8:13 am

kthdsn

12 hours now, he wouldn't have called his family without calling me, I don't want to worry them they are old and frail

8:14 am

Wolvie

12 hours? holy cow. you must be sick with worry. Wish I could help you kt

8:14 am

mattygroves

How are your kids? Are they aware?

8:14 am

Alien

I read back thru the blogs, I am sorry to hear about your husband being late home Kthdsn. Do you think he could still be at work, getting extra hours in?

8:14 am

Anniebrook

kth, that is a long time, call the hospitals and the police again. wish I was there with you

8:15 am

kthdsn

they're 6, 4 and 2, my eldest knows something is wrong but the other two think he's still at work

8:16 am

pam

is there someone you know near the bar that you can ask to go take a peek?

8:16 am

mattygroves

What does your husband do?

8:16 am

kthdsn

he's a barman

8:16 am

kthdsn

he should have been home around 2/3am

8:16 am

mattygroves

Where are you based - are you in/near London?

8:17 am

kthdsn

yorkshire

8:17 am

majmom

are you far from the work place-go for a walk and take the kids and check it out

8:17 am

kthdsn

I don't want to miss him if he calls, I daren't leave the phone

8:18 am

Anniebrook

is the bar open yet? call and speak to his boss or one of the workers and find out if something happened at the bar

8:18 am

Wolvie

wow, kth - I'll bbl to check on you - must be off for awhile

8:18 am

Mom

TIme to scoot off and get busy.
Kate, take care and I will be thinking of you and your children.

8:18 am

majmom

how about neighbors ask one to come over to man phone-and walk or cab to the bar

8:18 am

ch1212

kthdsn, you might try calling one of the businesses near the bar and ask them to pop their head in to see if someone there remembers seeing him leave, or if he's still there.

8:19 am

LuwandaHL

would the police would drive by the bar and check for you?

I would think that luwanda's suggestion makes sense, surely the police could do that???

8:21 am

kthdsn

I don't know, I feel like if I call the police again I have to admit that something hideous might have happened and I don't want to think that...

8:21 am

Alien

Kth, you need to contact the police again. Did you leave them your number in case they heard anything?

8:22 am

kthdsn

Really, Kate - call the police and leave them your number, call his family and see if he's contacted them, and get a friend to swing by the bar. At least then you're actively doing something. The not knowing must be horrible!

put a covering on the leather furniture!

10:27 am

hurshy

you just have a kitten - they aren't usually interested in smooth things.

10:27 am

gailinrb

you give it something else to scratch, and praise it when it does.

10:27 am

72 Temple Owl

change to fabric ones?

10:27 am

inge

That black singer came from Detroit, she attended the HighSchool for Performing Arts right behind Orchestra Hall, I saw her perform in their annual assem bly

10:27 am

tndaisy1960

suggestion for clue for that al 5/14: black singer who was in Queen of the Damned :) it was her last movie

10:28 am

hurshy

no no fabric would be much more scratchinteresting

10:28 am

pam

hi, hurshy....

10:28 am

gailinrb

and,it helps to keep the nails trimmed, too. that's easy to do if you get the kitten accustomed to it early.

10:28 am

rolin

lol..TO...do you know how long i have wanted leather furniture??..

10:28 am

pam

same here, cliffopa.

10:29 am

my cats try to scratch fabric but they don't try to scratch smooth wood - i really think they would not care about leather. and even the fabric they aren't too bad about, they mostly use their scratching posts.

10:29 am

that is not a clue its putting a word in the grid

10:49 am

melonheadjujube

oh, how to choose? back in a bit.

10:49 am

EnemyisME

well, scarlet, if you are implying I am such an individual..... you are entitled to your opinion .... I am sure you are much more accomplished at accepting accusations that are untrue. Now, I will never speak about this agiain.

10:51 am

hurshy

may i just say, if one person does become a bit brusque, when others respond unkindly or condescendingly and dismissively, the situation does not tend to improve.

10:51 am

Cathyar

well enemy...scarlet and anyone else involved in this seeming finger-pointing session. all i can say is freedom of speech also exists in babbleland. no need for harsh feelings here...people say what they think and we are ALL entitled to do so. lets just move on and ALL be babble friends

10:52 am

mattygroves

Oooh, what have I missed?

10:55 am

enemy began by very kindly defending my right to talk about politics. the responses were not altogether ideal, and enemy became brusque, and a large amount of Fundamental Attribution Error took place.

10:57 am

Cathyar

that's cool hursh...if others don't wish to discuss politics while others do, they do not need to chat about it... prob there were others who did not wish to discuss politics and they could easily have discussed other things ....it's a large chat log...plenty of room for everyone''s discussions

10:58 am

chj

pa6/21 the sheen on a surface when it ages

10:58 am

hurshy

10:59 am

Cathyar

gotta hate it when that happens, huh?

10:59 am

hurshy

one troll is manageable, but a whole classroomful...

10:59 am

EnemyisME

There are a lot of nice people here, I wll miss you.

10:59 am

Cathyar

10:59 am

mattygroves
