12:57 am

I truly believe in representing all holidays this time of year--we're such a wonderfully mixed country--but a lawsuit?
12:57 am
kierlex
a rabbi complained that the seattle airport only had xmas trees, he wanted to add a menorah. they decided to take down all the trees because there was no way they could put up symbols to honor all religious choices/holidays
12:57 am
jillibus
kier, to me the Christmas festivites are about Christmas.
12:57 am
CyborgScrabbler
cybernan ... put your thinking cap on and try and solve the clues
12:58 am
kierlex
i think it is insane.
12:58 am
dorky
ahhh it's the same all over kier - here in oz we have several groups that also complain about these things - trying to ban santa etc. it is a real pity
12:59 am
dorky
i think that for most westerners (at least here) xmas is very non-denominational, its about love and giving not religion
12:59 am
jillibus
Nobody is trying to ban dreidels
12:59 am
kierlex
people are so dang sensitive and then it just turns every day into a beige neutral, no celebrations of anything. and i am an atheist and i want xmas trees and santa!
1:00 am
Erda
it's not aboput l;ove; it's about spending money and giving presents and getting presents and spendiong moiney etc etc etc
1:00 am
jillibus
Right on dorky.
1:00 am
dorky
exactly kier, but some ppl always have to push their own agenda
1:00 am
kierlex
why is a xmas tree bad? i don't understand. and it has its beginnings long before xtian stuff
1:00 am
Erda
sorry about the typing
1:01 am
dorky
that's pretty cynical erda, most of our xmas presents are hand made, we dont do commercialism
1:01 am
mirandapan
well, that is the irony--Santa Claus and a Christmas tree have little to do with a Christian faith--now, if they had put up an advent wreath--perhaps that would be another thing altogether
1:01 am
kierlex
and then the rabbi said that he was worried people wold blame the jewish people for being a scrooge. ARGH.
1:01 am
Erda
I don't do any of it
1:01 am
dorky
xmas tree predates christianity - it was a pagan symbol long before that
1:01 am
kierlex
I guess we could all go with Festivus
1:02 am
jillibus
Well, are we really celebrating the solstice with our bright lights in the dark days? I think I'll change my icon
1:02 am
Erda
oops -- sorry
1:02 am
dorky
well i think i would use my spare time to stage a protest at the airport - sit out front singing and handing out candy canes
1:02 am
kierlex
i wonder what evilness the candy cane represents.
1:02 am
jillibus
s'ok. erda! And maybe appropriate
1:03 am
melonheadjujube
hi! couldn't stay away from "my crowd" - got all groceries today - tomorrow laundry & a little Chanukah shopping. btw, I think the rabbi was a real nudnik.
1:03 am
dorky
someone mentioned freud a moment ago LOL
1:03 am
kierlex
actually that was me mentioning the freudian candy cane, lol
1:03 am
melonheadjujube
the candy cane represents rampant tooth decay, a metaphor for societal decay
1:03 am
jillibus
and happy Chanukah, melon!
1:03 am
kierlex
i dont know what nudnik is but it sounds good
1:04 am
dorky
hehe - if i came across a 'freudian cane' i think i would faint
1:04 am
kierlex
a candy cane represents the staff of god who will smite down those who oppress others with their narrow minded world views.
1:04 am
melonheadjujube
it's kinda of like shmendrik - ot maybe the guy was a shlemiel - yeah shlemiel.
1:05 am
melonheadjujube
a shlemiel is his own worst enemy, and, given the chance, will take others down with him, inadvertently or not. at least that's what i say ;)

2:42 am
Angb
hi andree - your daughter and grandchild get home OK?
2:44 am
Andree
yes angb, they had a great time, Jules was sleeping in same room as the two kids so was very tired
2:44 am
Angb
That's great - a different environment often tires kids out too - so much to take in
2:46 am
Andree
I guess it will be years before her children realize who these extra relations are
2:46 am
Angb
Yes, but it's often interesting what children do pick up
2:48 am
Andree
yes it is but from experience, adoption is a hard concept to explain
2:48 am
Andree
even to adults sometimes, lol
2:49 am
Angb
That's true Andree - kids are about the concept of family - people who know and love us ... it's when we are older life seems to get more complex...or so we think
2:50 am
Angb
My kids don't really understand family relations - aunty and uncle are just relations - they count them up - nice and simple
2:51 am
Andree
thats what most kids do, wonderfuls little beings
2:52 am
Andree
it was funny with my older granchildren when they finally realized I was their daddy's mummy
2:52 am
Andree
the little ones have no idea, I am just granma
2:52 am
Angb
Yes, they can't really figure that - it's seems like they are the only one's allowed to have mothers and fathers ... makes me smile
2:53 am
Angb
Hi Fran - how are you?
2:54 am
FranMag
good angb, just back from grabbing a snack
2:54 am
Andree

Andree

2:56 am
FranMag
what puzzles count towards the weekly win? or is it just the quote puzzler?
2:56 am
Angb
Just quote puzzler. Mind you 4 people were ahead of me, but had won recently so they couldn't get it again LOL
2:56 am

2:58 am
Andree

3:08 am
FranMag
later angb!
3:09 am
Angb
Andree - I am not sure what to say ... could say lots but I am sure you have heard it from your friends. But if I had a gun for every man that is like that I would have run out of bullets. See what happens ... I had better stop now while I am ahead. Sorry to spout. Please forgive me
3:10 am
FranMag
angb, i'm sure we all feel that way.
3:10 am
lynxxx
Is it just me - I've got 90 left to find and can't see anything (and lets not talk about Ts!). Does anyone know what the 9s start with?
3:10 am
Andree
thats okay angb, the verbal abuse was the most soul destroying
3:11 am
FranMag
not i lynxxx, i have two of the 8s and 8 of the 7s though
3:12 am
Andree
th8/70, 9/90, 9/90 all start with the same 6 letters
3:12 am
lynxxx
Hey Andree - but you seem to be a very strong woman now - maybe every (dark!!!) cloud does have a silver lining - eventually!
3:12 am
FranMag
well that explains why i don't have any 9s! until a few minutes ago i had no THs!
3:12 am
Angb
I know what that's like Andree - that and emotional. I had to leave to find my self esteem. Not many people can take that from me now.
3:13 am
Andree
I am strong thats why I lasted so long
3:13 am
Andree
no one will take it from me again angb
3:14 am
FranMag
yay! got them all, thanks andree!
3:14 am
Andree

Haz1558

10:52 am
cybernan
both th 9's are from the same root -- plural the 8 and one who
10:52 am
