12:40 am

Jacula

If I pluck any more white hairs out of my eyebrows I won't have any (eyebrows)!

12:41 am

Jellen

Another option is for your friend to find several people to co-host (put up money), but I don't see a problem with asking people to pay--as long as it isn't a surprise to them.

12:41 am

melonheadjujube

my greys started right on top my head.

12:41 am

herinfernallady

12:42 am

12:43 am

corpsvalue

i need to get back to work. anyone need a clue for the di7? or is it too early for that still?

12:43 am

jillibus

12:43 am

jillibus

the box overflowed

12:44 am

Jacula

Mind you, that has answered a question my Mum , also a brunette, always wondered about... until she reached her 60s. LOL.

1:14 am

So Jac no one has cleaned the rubbish of the side of the raod for 2 weeks?

1:14 am

any end to the strike in sight?

1:14 am

Jacula

Yes, Fran, but that is the way the Labour government decided we should do things now.

1:15 am

herinfernallady

Eww poor you Jac thats nasty. I cant imagine how stinky that could get

1:16 am

Jacula

No end to the post strike in sight, no, Fran. This reminds me of the Witnter of Discontent in the 70s that Maggie presided over eventually.

1:16 am

jillibus

Vancouver is having a similar problem

1:16 am

herinfernallady

Um NO Mail what about bills? can you get you mail at the central postoffice?

1:16 am

FranMag

that's right, the strike is the postal workers, not garbage!

1:17 am

Jacula

jili - for as long as I can remember since my family went out there about 30 years' ago, there have been post strikes in Canada.

1:18 am

mkg

clues anyone? i have the ye 5s but need the four.

1:18 am

Jacula

We have, in UK postal workers strikles. The rubbish collections are just new Loony Labour ideas - fornightly colections.

1:19 am

Jacula

When we were on Crete, the rubbish was collected daily.

1:19 am

FranMag

herinfernallady

1:21 am

MVA

1:21 am

Jacula

Trash collected once aweek would be fine, likeit used to be.

1:21 am

Atalante

that would be too easy, jac *sigh*

1:22 am

Jacula

Now they collectn food/nappies, organic stuff everyother week.

1:22 am

trueheart11

ta 5- add a consonant to ta 4...very similar to fa 5

1:22 am

herinfernallady

But if i lived where would i put my cat poo? it could be burried but ewww

1:22 am

Atalante

you would put it in the bin, herin

1:22 am

Jacula

They get garden waste, plastics, glass, paper, cans every other week.

1:22 am

trueheart11

nice little detail on the buddha: I got it from people I worked for. When I started for myself, they were jealous and the head of the buddha broke off that same day. I decided to glue it and the heck with jealousy.
Then, years later, when my love and I moved to our present home, the head came off again during the moving. For fun, we dropped a grain of rice inside and then glued it shut. I was pregnant with my eldest the same week :)

BabbleRabble

Mr. See owned a saw.
And Mr. Soar owned a seesaw.
Now, See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw
Before Soar saw See,
Which made Soar sore.
Had Soar seen See's saw
Before See sawed Soar's seesaw,
See's saw would not have sawed
Soar's seesaw.
So See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw.
But it was sad to see Soar so sore
just because See's saw sawed
Soar's seesaw.

2:35 am

FranMag

hi Doxy

3:12 am

saintfranny

awww doxy - sorry to hear about your furbaby... so hard.

3:12 am

FranMag

wow, i have no idea liz, let me check

3:13 am

sprite

but who's counting, BabbleRabble...

3:13 am

doxy1lover

fran, I like claritin better than allegra. it works better for me.

3:13 am

Lizsark

sorry Fran! :)

3:13 am

doxy1lover

thanks fran. it's been awhile. my hubby won't let me get another one, even though I want one.

3:13 am

saintfranny

tx sprite. ok - i'm sold on claritin - making a stop at the store tomorrow asap for it. tx for the recs all

3:13 am

FranMag

The population of
Hawaii
is 1,262,840

3:13 am

FranMag

that's according to ask.com

3:14 am

saintfranny

why not doxy? so many babies in shelters needing a home...

3:14 am

Lizsark

Oh Wow Fran! I had no idea it was such a big place! I thought it was much smaller than that

3:14 am

doxy1lover

there are two formulas of claritin. one is over the counter. the other is behind the counter, but you don't need a prescription for it

3:15 am

FranMag

liz, that's the whole state, the population is split over several islands with Oahu being the most populous.

3:16 am

sprite

Fran: love your Buddha!

3:17 am

Lizsark

I was comparing it to where I live. The Channel Islands are made up of roughly 7 populated islands (there are a few smaller ones) and the population here is about 200,000

3:17 am

FranMag

thanks sprite! i didn't realize there was one so big here in Hawaii until i googled it.

3:17 am

Lizsark

On 'my' island there are 600 residents

3:18 am

FranMag

that's perfect liz, the size of my high school graduating class.

3:18 am

jillibus

there are about 10,000 on Salt Spring Island but about double that in the summer

3:18 am

rururocks

everone must know everyone there..

3:18 am

Lizsark

oh lol! In the school here there are only 60 children total

3:18 am

Lizsark

yes we do ruru

3:19 am

FranMag

must be hard for newcomers to become part of the fold

3:19 am

sprite

must be wonderful, to live in such a small community. I realise there are setbacks, but wow.

3:19 am

rururocks

any kids named one/one?

3:19 am

FranMag

jilli, Salt Spring Island sounds like a great place to be year round.

3:19 am

FranMag

funny ruru

3:20 am

Lizsark

yes there are drawbacks - you can never keep anything secret here for a start!

3:20 am

doxy1lover

I think I would like to live in a smaller community.

3:20 am

Lizsark

on the other hand there is no crime

3:20 am

rururocks

probably because you are on an island and everone knows each other

3:21 am

FranMag

that's a huge plus!

3:21 am

FranMag

it would be hard to make your big getaway i think

3:22 am

Lizsark

It would be very hard to move anywhere else yes, but I love to get away on trips hence my Jordan trek coming up next year

3:22 am

FranMag

i meant if you robbed the bank or something. :-)

3:22 am

rururocks

sprite

sweet of you to ask, Fran! I would love a clue for that li5 they were talking about earlier... I cannot get it!

4:27 am

FranMag

sprite, it must be the fabric, just put an L in front of the small piece of land.

4:27 am

sprite

oh, and I emailed my list to jillibus... she does not always finish the grids and she loves to see the videos nevertheless... perhaps you might consider giving her that privilege too :D

4:28 am

sprite

awwwwww that is IT! Thank you SO much, it drove me crazy. Was going the wrong way, never thought of that direction, sigh.

4:28 am

FranMag

good idea sprite, the email is saved and ready to send again.

4:28 am

FranMag

i know, the ones that go right are always the last ones i find.

G'd morning Dorens

6:21 am

Dorens

hi ladies. carlee - I just read your recipe and gained three pounds. (seriously, it looks delicious)

6:21 am

carleekat

oh..well.. thanks dorens... its dead easy to make...

6:22 am

LoriP

That was a cute little grid.

6:22 am

Dorens

finished? congrats lori

6:23 am

LoriP

Yep. All done. lots of Babblets. Pretty straight forward grid.

6:23 am

Dorens

friendly so far

6:23 am

Dorens

slid

6:23 am

carleekat

<POMOPM TWISTY TWIRL> for lori p..woot woot

6:23 am

Dorens

sorry

6:24 am

sprite

back for the last few, hi all

6:24 am

Dorens

hi sprite. how are you these days?

6:24 am

carleekat

hey sprite

6:24 am

carleekat

ok..back in a few..gotta shower...

6:26 am

LoriP

G'd morning sprite

6:26 am

sprite

inching forward in the right direction, Dorens. It goes incredibly slow but I finally start seeing that there is some improvement. Now the challenge of not using that tiny bit of energy to start running again, but to allow it to support the slow healing... :)
Thanks for asking and caring!

6:27 am

LoriP

*** bestowing the world's gentlest hug of all on sprite***

6:27 am

Dorens

slow and steady wins the race (if I may be so trite, sprite)

6:28 am

Dorens

but you do sound like you are doing the right things... you are wise in addition to smart... you'll get there

6:28 am

sprite

lol Dorens... you may and you are totally right.

6:28 am

sprite

aw Lori, thanks, that is so sweet!

6:29 am

sprite

thanks you Dorens, I hope you are right about that too! And I do start feeling I am on the right track, I really do.

6:31 am

Dorens

and now, I must find four more words to get to the halfway point so I can eat breakfast and get to work on time. (I really do need help..... babble is more important to me than just about any other aspect of my life)

6:32 am

sprite

oops Dorens... too much addiction?

6:32 am

Dorens

too much addiction with just a touch of obsessive/compulsive.... neither are my norm

6:33 am

sprite

double oops. Hope you can find a way to play this game relaxed and just for fun.

6:33 am

LoriP

I absolutely freak out mentally, when I have a busy work day and can't Babble until evening. That's prob'ally a bad sign..... :)

6:34 am

Dorens

oh, it is fun.... and I am relaxed... I just don't want to stop playing!!

6:34 am

Dorens

i freak out when it is a big grid day and I have after school meetings or something and I know I won't have enough time to do one, but still do!

6:34 am

sprite

lol you both! That bad huh... well, this game has a way of doing that to us for sure!

6:37 am

LoriP

I'm like a gambler sitting at a slot machine, staring at the screen while the page is loading to see what the word total is. LOL

6:37 am

sprite

LOLLLL oh that is the same here! I know exactly where to look. That first, and then a quick look at the chat to see who is actively chatting atm.

6:37 am

Dorens

someone asked me recently what makes me really happy. sad thing is that I thought of the feeling of sitting down to the grid when I get home from work on certain days

6:38 am

Dorens

and the word count.... one of the first things is just how big is this grid?

6:38 am

sprite

nothing sad about that, Dorens. If there are things that are making you truly happy, you are a rich person!

6:38 am

Dorens

yes, it is like looking at a slot machine, isn't it?

6:38 am

LoriP

Perhaps multiple 12 step programs would help us. :)

6:39 am

sprite

it is!

6:39 am

inge

OK I give up. My last word keeps escaping me. Has anyone caught te 5/12?

6:39 am

sprite

not me... not motivated enough!

6:39 am

Dorens

thanks sprite... sounds good... and with that, I have passed the halfway point... and really should eat something and be to school on time... rainy rainy day here, so I can't drive like i'm a racecar driver. see you later

6:40 am

sprite

bye Dorens!

6:41 am

Dorens

inge-- like the plates of the earth causing earthquakes when they shift

6:41 am

LoriP

te + o***gons have 8 sides?

6:41 am

sprite

inge: te5/12: like in dete**ive agency, + vowel at the end.

6:41 am

LoriP

Later Dorens. Have a great day!

6:41 am

sprite

ah, don't you love the different clues!

6:41 am

Inge2

inge, there's an obvious te5/12, rhymes with how a Bostonian would say "nectar"

6:42 am

sprite

and there is fireworks for me

6:43 am

LoriP

G'd morning Inge. Congrats sprite!!!

6:43 am

EspritdJean

6:45 am

carleekat

( last time we spoke was on your's and lickety's live tv website )

6:46 am

carleekat

hey mr pres...we should hook him up with my mother in law... they'd be a match made in heaven

6:46 am

sprite

any man not loving you is one sad specimen of the kind... and out of his mind.

6:46 am

LoriP

LOL Esprit. Have a nice trip? ***I'm Pavlov's dog conditioned to lurking, in the friendliest possible sense*** :)

6:46 am

mrpresident

He 'likes' me, but makes it known that I am 'difficult' and 'scary'... in his mind anyway

6:47 am

EspritdJean

Yes, the trip was fantastic except I just myself in the amazon

6:47 am

LoriP

I have an in-law I'd be glad to lend you mrP......

6:47 am

mrpresident

He just doesn't challenge my intellect and he knows it

6:47 am

EspritdJean

carleekat

no..please..take mine!!!!!!!!!!!

6:47 am

mrpresident

LOL jean

6:48 am

sprite

mrP, darling... there is the truth! He is scared of you, is all. Too intense a person for his taste, I bet... too much life and intellect sprankling from him for which he has no appreciation and no answer.

6:48 am

carleekat

ahhhh..i have a brother in law..JUST like that... he hates me cus he knows he is sub par on the smarts scale...

6:48 am

sprite

*sprankling from YOU

6:48 am

mrpresident

It has taken me many years to get my mother-in-law completely happy.... my MIL loves me and my FIL fears me.... oh well. He is missing out on my grand adventure

6:49 am

LoriP

Esprit's plan has appeal. Simple, easy to remember.

6:49 am

mrpresident

sparkling !!

6:49 am

8:16 am

Scarlet

Mom, this might seem hard to believe, but it's true... not earthshaking, but kinda funny. I dreamt that you, carleekat, Annie, Nono and FMitch and I were doing the grid. This dream was Monday night, remember. As we were chatting and digging out words, you said you had "penis". Some trolls came on and made some crude remarks, so AnnieB said she had bills to pay. I stopped chatting. You, Mom, on the other hand, gave the most eloquent speech on the fact that penis was a completely acceptable biological word, and if individuals were not able to conduct themselves appropriately, perhaps another site would be advisable. You said, we don't smirk at language, we enjoy clever minds here.

8:16 am

Scarlet

Then I came to yesterday's puzzle, and lo and behold, there was the male organ, and Annie went to pay bills! LOL

8:16 am

Mom

lol Scarlet.

8:17 am

Mom

**blushing**

8:17 am

Mom

that is a hoot

8:18 am

Scarlet

I know... it's a touch Twilight Zone-ish, too.

8:18 am

Anniebrook

Well, I'll be! I do remember saying I had to pay bills. Scarlet, do you have a crystal ball down in Asheville?

8:18 am

Mom

come to think of it, there haven't been trolls for a while

8:19 am

Mom

I remember you saying that as well Annie

8:19 am

Scarlet

Sometimes I spook myself, Annie... no, no crystal ball. But, there was the word, and off you went to do your bills!! LOL

8:19 am

inge

all the trolls are in Michigan boarding up their houses! :)

8:19 am

Anniebrook

I was thinking the same about trolls...

8:19 am

Anniebrook

funny, inge

8:19 am

Scarlet

LOL......inge, that's funny!

8:20 am

inge

then they go south to bother you all

8:20 am

Mom

slowing down at 74, 34 left.

8:21 am

Scarlet

Oh, inge, it takes more than a troll to get under my skin! LOL

8:21 am

inge

well, I promised myself to cut coupons today and do some shopping. Back later

8:22 am

Scarlet

Later, inge!

8:22 am

Mom

bye Inge, thanks for stopping bye. Come back soon.

8:22 am

Mom

oh man, I need to do that as well. Tomorrow is grocery day

8:22 am

Mom

by*

8:23 am

Mom

thanks for sharing the dream, Scarlet

8:23 am

Mom

I had best be getting off here and make my list for the grocery. See everyone later today. Hugs to you all

8:24 am

Shawnee

i'm glad I missed the trolls monday, the teeny bopper troll last friday was enough for me for a while

8:24 am

Anniebrook

bye Mom..and inge

8:24 am

Scarlet

You're welcome, Mom... glad I was able to slip it in before chat got too crowded. Later, dear lady. *Hugs*

8:24 am

Shawnee

happy couponing ladies, did mine yesterday

8:24 am

EvaNadine

i was also thinking the other day that we hadnt had an infestation for quite a while...my troll-b-gone hasnt been whipped out in QUITE a while!

8:24 am

Mom

Shawnee, the trolls on Monday were in Scarlet's dream

8:25 am

Mom

bye Annie, Scarlet, Shawnee and Eva :)

8:25 am

Shawnee

thank heavens, scared me for a minute.

8:25 am

Mom

sorry I missed the trolls on Friday

8:26 am

Scarlet

You are welcome to visit my subconscious any time you want, MOm

8:26 am

Scarlet

You are welcome to visit my subconscious any time you want, MOm

8:28 am

Scarlet

OOPs.... brain troll! Good morning, Shawnee and Eva. AnnieB, has there been any news on Toad, yet?

8:29 am

Shawnee

I think Mom said the last she heard was contractions Sunday, nothing since

8:29 am

Shawnee

I feel sad that she is without her hubby during this joyous event

8:30 am

Scarlet

I was on then, too, Shawnee, but she was no concerned yet... I think it's sad too... so many new babies born to soldier parents so far away...

8:30 am

Scarlet

*not*

8:31 am

Anniebrook

went to put a pot of coffee on...no word from toad yet...

8:32 am

Shawnee

sounds like she has good support network surrounding her though. Military is good about that, wives must stick together when duty calls the men away

8:33 am

Scarlet

Does Toad have a mother or sister or any other relative to be with her during the miracle, Annie or Shawnee? I haven't heard her mention that.

8:34 am

Shawnee

I don't know. Does she know what she is having?

8:36 am

Scarlet

There's one brain cell that thinks she mentioned having a little girl, Shawnee, but don't put that in stone.

8:36 am

FMitch

Hi all< I think T&T said that parents were flying in this week but weren't going to be there in time for the brith.

8:36 am

Shawnee

morning fm. glad to hear of that

8:37 am

Haz1558

Oh look, some Brits to join in the conversation. Good morning/afternoon all.

8:37 am

Scarlet

Good morning, FMitch and Haz! If you hurry, you can catch the dream sequence in chat at 8:16

8:37 am

FMitch

Well looky there, Hi Haz!

8:38 am

Shawnee

morning haz

8:38 am

Anniebrook

Hi Haz and FM!

8:38 am

Haz1558

The dream sequence. I know who I'd want populating my dreams.

8:38 am

Haz1558

Hello FMitch - feeling any better?

8:38 am

FMitch

and hello Scarlet and Shawnee and Annie!

8:39 am

FMitch

George Cuney and thanks, no temperature right now.

8:39 am

Shawnee

little person is calling her mama. off to start the day. see you all later this afternoon

8:39 am

Anniebrook

glad you are on the mend, FM!

8:39 am

Haz1558

You know me so well. Glad to hear you're not overheated.

8:39 am

FMitch

However I still have the dreaded lurgey typing bug :(

8:40 am

Haz1558

We'll forgive you.

8:40 am

FMitch

Any funeral news yet?

8:40 am

Scarlet

Good to hear, FMitch... Haz, you MUST become acquainted with Mr. Clooney, up close and personal, as it were.

8:41 am

Haz1558

Indeed - I happened to meet the procession as they were heading to the cemetery. The funeral car was playing music.....

8:41 am

Scarlet

Funeral?\

8:41 am

Judi

Good morning, Babblonians.

8:41 am

Scarlet

HI, Judi!

8:41 am

Haz1558

A traveller's funeral, Scarlet. They do things..... differently.

8:41 am

FMitch

She has in HER dreams :)
Dare I ask what sort of music?
Hi Judi

8:41 am

Anniebrook

hi judi!

8:42 am

Scarlet

Oh, that's something to see. You are fortunate to be able to observe!

8:42 am

Haz1558

I think it was country and western but I didn't want to hang around too long in case they interpreted my gaping mouth as disapproval.

8:42 am

FMitch

LOL

8:43 am

Scarlet

That might be construed as inappropriate, Haz... as if!

8:43 am

FMitch

However we were relying on your reporting skills so do feel a tad let down.

8:43 am

Haz1558

Floral tributes that I could see included BROTHER, NEPHEW, SON all picked out in silk flowers. I'll investigate further this afternoon to see if Guinness sponsored anything.

8:44 am

Scarlet

I had forgotten about that particular chat subject... the Travelers do things up with a bang, don't they?

8:45 am

Haz1558

Indeed, Scarlet, I was waiting for doves to be released (homing pigeons probably) as has happened before, but nothing that I could see. I'll check to see if the beer cans have been left at the grave like they usually are.

8:46 am

FMitch

Scarlet what an, er, interesting dream. I am honoured to have been part of it :)

8:46 am

Ogdens Nut

Haz, you do seem to be becoming a veritable oracle on all things re travellers -weddings, funerals.....perhaps you will be telling us all about the births you have witnessed next - look forward to it!

8:46 am

Judi

Not to be a buttinsky, but, whose funeral are we talking about?

8:47 am

Scarlet

Oh, my... that transcends my sense of decorum, just a touch... LOL, FMitch... odd how the mind releases just enough steam to stay connected to sanity... of course, that's relative!

8:47 am

Ogdens Nut

Hi all babblers...

8:47 am

Haz1558

Oh Zed, I've not witnessed the births but do have a friend who works in Antrim maternity and has witnessed things...

8:48 am

Haz1558

Hello Zen, by the way.

8:48 am

Scarlet

Good morning, Zen.

8:49 am

Ogdens Nut

Oh yes, and what goes on down maternity way, Haz?

8:49 am

FMitch

A poor soul in Ballymena Judi (not related to Haz).
Hello Zen.

8:49 am

Haz1558

They camp out practically, hordes and hordes of them.

8:50 am

Judi

Ah.

8:51 am

Ogdens Nut

Hello Scarlet & FM - lovely icon pic, Scarlet!

8:51 am

Haz1558

Zen, I haven't seen you round for a few days. Were you away?

8:51 am

FMitch

Dreadful thought Haz, it wasn't the grrom that dired, the one who married the 22 stone wedding dress, perhaps he was crushed by their nuputals?

8:51 am

FMitch

*groom

8:52 am

Haz1558

No, sadly it was a young man, though.

8:52 am

FMitch

Oh dear.

8:52 am

Jayde287

Clue for af 6/30?

8:52 am

Scarlet

Thank you, Zen. Today is Buddha-themed, courtesy of Sprite!

8:53 am

Ogdens Nut

I have been physically in Ballymena, Haz, but travelling many realms....

8:54 am

Scarlet

LOL, FMitch... and to think that I might have never known about that fashion statement if not for Babble chat, and Haz's immediate posting of "THE DRESS"

8:54 am

Haz1558

I just wondered as I hadn't seen you around much, Zen.

8:54 am

FMitch

THAT DRESS has entered the anals of Babble folk lore.

8:55 am

periwinkle

Hello all

8:55 am

Ogdens Nut

You haven't actually seen me at all, Haz!!!!!!

8:56 am

FMitch

Zen have you been using that Out-of-Body vacation website again? I did warn you about that.

8:56 am

FMitch

Hi peri

8:56 am

Haz1558

Maybe annals would be better, FMitch, though annuls would be forgiveable as well (given the dress!)

8:57 am

Scarlet

Hi, peri!

8:57 am

Ogdens Nut

Thats meant as flippant btw, Haz; forgive my pedanticism with words....

8:57 am

FMitch

Oops, blushes to match icon.

8:57 am

Haz1558

That's okay, Zen. Who knows, I may have seen you and not known!

8:58 am

Jayde287

Anyone have a clue for the af 6/30???

8:58 am

Ogdens Nut

How tragic that would have indeed been

8:59 am

Haz1558

a plus what the farmer cultivates.

9:01 am

Ogdens Nut

Haven't been on chat so much the last few days as have been busy looking at and deciding whether to move house......

9:02 am

Haz1558

Ah I see. Looking in estate agent's windows has me gasping at the prices.

9:05 am

Ogdens Nut

yes, I have been gasping a bit too - but in some ways it makes little difference, as, if buying, one is selling into the same market.

9:06 am

FMitch

Estate Agents are like shoe sales people:
Ask for a house for under £300k and they show you an apartment for £500k.

9:06 am

Haz1558

That's true. You're only going to be at an advantage if you're downsizing. I don't see how prices can keep going up.

9:07 am

Haz1558

You mean they try to tempt you into going beyond your budget by showing you what you could have if you wanted to be cold and hungry for the rest of your life?

9:08 am

FMitch

LOL

9:10 am

Ogdens Nut

What I don't understand is why there was apparently no resistance as house prices sailed willy-nilly over 250k and then into a 3% stamp duty bracket -i saw one house on sale at 255k changing the stamp duty from 2500 to about £8000!

9:11 am

FMitch

Why are easy sudokus classified as easy when they take SO much longer to solve than the hard one?
Rhetorical question, no answer needed.

9:11 am

Haz1558

That's because you're reading the small print. Lots of people don't and just plunge into it without thinking.

Congratulations peri!

I didn't have time to research, just got the icon

9:28 am

Scarlet

I was just notified that the Yahoo mail system has "gone down" and to bear with them to get it back and running! That's a first.

9:29 am

Scarlet

Good morning, flosey and harpjane.

9:29 am

Most unusual Scarlet

9:30 am

Scarlet

Yes, FM, and I am breathlessly awaiting daughter's news of her kitten's first night with a loving human being...

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

hi all!

9:33 am

Scarlet

Here's what the system said: Can't talk now. System's down.
Sorry for the holdup. Looks like a temporary glitch in our network has part of Yahoo! mail down, so you're briefly without service. Rest assured the alarms are blaring in the basement and our team is working frantically to get you up and running ASAP. Again, the snag is on our end — so there's no need for you to do a thing.

Back to it,

Oh well Scarlet, deep breaths and patience if you can :)
Hello TO

9:35 am

Scarlet

Yes, FMitch... it is Buddha-theme today, after all...

9:38 am

FMitch

I have a type of Yew tree outside my window and at this time of year it is covered in big fat red berries. I am entertained every day by the birds feeding on them, especially when a pigeon tries to land on the lighter springy branches!

9:39 am

Scarlet

That's a meditation in itself, FM... beautiful.

9:39 am

Judi

Fireworks! Yawn.

9:40 am

Scarlet

Well done, Judi!

9:41 am

EvaNadine

scarlet -- i wonder if that message has anything to do with the 75-year old virginia woman going to her local Comcast office with a hammer + smashing things up to get their attention. ;)

9:41 am

Scarlet

Ohmigosh, Eva... didn't hear about that little ditty!

9:41 am

Judi

Wow!

9:42 am

Judi

At least it wasn't a frying pan. That would have been too cliche.

9:43 am

EvaNadine

hah, look up the story, its great!
she + her hubby were trying to get their cable/internet/phone package + Comcast kept screwing it up, especially their phone service. they live kinda out in the country + she has a heart condition, so not having phone, even temporarily, had her very concerned + they werent responding promptly to her, so she went to go get their attention...
smahed up a keyboard, monitor + telephone, if i recall correctly!

9:43 am

Judi

LOL! Well, the customer is always right!

9:44 am

Anniebrook

THAT will get their attention...

'Do not go gentle into that good night. Old age should burn and rave at close of day.' She took Dylan Thomas at his word.

Amen.

9:48 am

EvaNadine

on a totally unrelated note, while she does look like a complete bobble-head doll, Posh Spice DOES have some awfully cute hair! (the cut, not the color, mind you...)

9:49 am

Haz1558

Have you seen some of the new photos of her modelling the sort of clothes art students dream up?

9:50 am

EvaNadine

cant say i have

9:50 am

Scarlet

No, Haz.

9:50 am

Haz1558

I'll see if I can get some for you. She looks even more sullen than usual, some make-up artist has been 'creative.'

9:52 am

Haz1558

If you google Posh Spice Big Bird, then click on the Daily Mail article, you'll see what I mean.

9:53 am

Anniebrook

must get to the day, wll google that, Haz, see you all later

any clues for fa6 please

9:58 am

Scarlet

The "look" was already perfected years ago in The Addamms Family... Uncle Fester wore that makeup.

9:59 am

FMitch

I like the red number, carlee could use a couple of those for her cheerleader pompoms

9:59 am

Haz1558

fa6/39 - insert Roman 5 and add a belief system ending.

9:59 am

Scarlet

Is this considered art?

10:00 am

Haz1558

It's money, Scarlet, and exposure for her. She thrives on it.

10:00 am

flosey

thanks Haz

10:01 am

FMitch

and will all designer stuff, elements of their designs will filter down to the high street.

10:01 am

Haz1558

Glad to help, flosey.

10:01 am

Scarlet

I just don't "get" it, Haz... It seems as though the past 20 years or so, in order to get the advertising message conveyed, it's ugly trumps good taste, always.

10:02 am

Haz1558

I really objected to some of the Benetton advertisments (don't know if they reached the States or not) as they seemed designed to be provocative rather than to sell the clothes.

10:02 am

FMitch

Its a long time since good taste and manners sold anything in the market place Scarlet.

10:02 am

Scarlet

The more outrageous, the more that women stumble over themselves to grab it... I think so many designs are created by individuals who are secretly laughing themselves silly that people "bought it".

10:03 am

Scarlet

How right you are, FMitch. Yes, Haz, the Benetton ads caused a flurry here, too.

10:04 am

How many total words today, anyone?

10:05 am

Haz1558

Perhaps more people should object - it can work. I took great exception to an advert which appeared here on television. It was for a deodorant, but featured people trying to escape from a collapsing building. To me, it was in bad taste, coming so soon after 9/11. I wrote to complain, many others did as well, and the advert was changed.

10:06 am

Shawnee

try explaining some of the advertising and such to a 10 yr old boy. makes being a parent hard these days

10:06 am

Marc Freeman

good morning all, does anyone have a clue on di7, please?

10:06 am

Haz1558

The makers of the advert had the gall to claim that they never had any intention of mimicking the tragedy.

10:06 am

Scarlet

One person has the power to change the world, Haz. If I am moved to do so, I will write to voice an opinion also.

10:07 am

Haz1558

di7 - if it began with de, it would be the higher soprano line in a song.

10:07 am

Shawnee

morning marc, odd musical term

10:08 am

Haz1558

You should, Scarlet. I didn't quite describe myself as Disgusted of Ballymena, but that is how I felt!

10:08 am

Marc Freeman

morning Shawnee, Haz but I know nothing about music any other clue possible?

10:08 am

Marc Freeman

Does it start with the di4 before it?

10:08 am

SamanthaJoy

Di + sc 512, the first one

10:09 am

SamanthaJoy

yes it does

10:09 am

Shawnee

well clued Samantha

10:09 am

Haz1558

Okay, try a three letter prefix that rhymes with the spinster's title, then add some hypocrisy.

10:09 am

Scarlet

I have always, pithily, gotten right to the purpose of my complaint, without being base... and, most times, I have received a standard "Thank you for your opinion" letter.

10:09 am

SamanthaJoy

thank you shawnee

10:09 am

Haz1558

Yes, add a picnic pest to the information container, di4/6.

Please do not send it back to me as I have already received it from a Very Good Looking, Damn Smart Woman! And remember this motto to live by: Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming ' WOO HOO what a ride!'

I hate it too redshoes.. feels like you have missed half the day

Awwwww... how did she react, Shawnee? Crying? Poor pookies.

12:42 pm

Shawnee

just for a bit, then she was all smiles. it was just one of the most disorganized experiences ever, typical health dept fiasco unfortunately.

12:42 pm

Scarlet

At least the babe is okay, then, Shawnee. I usually hate to be involved in cluster vaccination sites...

where my mom lives, there are churches that sponsor flu shots for the elderly and disabled so it's like a drive-thru--she got her shot just sitting in her car!

12:44 pm

Shawnee

I do as well, Scarlet, but because she is 14 months, the dr office said she had to go there instead. Never been before, and can you believe, the nurses were late? Several of us, including the elderly, had to stand outside the building in the cold for quite a while, wouldn't even let us in where it is warm. UGH

12:44 pm

Scarlet

Nice, Une... my beloved will need one soon, and I wish we had such services here, too. Just walking to the polling place yesterday knocked the stuffings out of him... but it was 78 degrees outside, too.

Uneaixoise

it's a great service--that's how she got her shot last year too!

12:46 pm

Scarlet

I wish Asheville were that progressive, Une... no such luck...you go to your primary care physician, wait, go in, etc., yadda, yadda, yadda.

12:46 pm

Shawnee

What a wonderful thing for your mom, Une. She is fortunate to have that.

12:46 pm

any help welcome

4:00 pm

BabbleRabble

try it today?

4:00 pm

Sandieangel

very few people manag the grid without the help of the clues. I think only the real die-hards can manage it or those who have been playing for years.

4:00 pm

lorr

great game tho

4:00 pm

scribekd

Sandiangel-I couldn't get Licketty's to open at all for me today--even after a refresh-any idea as to why?

4:00 pm

Sandieangel

Yes, it gets very addictive.

4:01 pm

Sandieangel

Oh - it opened for me. Did you get a message that said something like - if you can't see the clues -click here?

4:02 pm

scribekd

No message-just click & nothing happens

4:02 pm

BabbleRabble

I just opened likety

4:02 pm

Sandieangel

Hmmmm. It occasionally plays up - but mine worked - so sorry can't help.

4:03 pm

Sandieangel

I should have another go at it scribe.

4:03 pm

scribekd

Thanks for the thought & for the clues! I try to wait until 1/2 way to get Licketty's help but it's murder without it at all!

4:03 pm

lorr

did u try closing program and reopening it

4:04 pm

HollyF

di5/14?

4:04 pm

Sandieangel

Yes, I go as far as possible without licketty and then I check to see what I'm missing.

4:04 pm

hurshy

yes, many a person has made the mistake, geli, but, he's just there cause i like to drool at him

6:04 pm

geli01

ok.... yeah, i know you were talking about the game, I jus thought that knowing so many words with the same definition was scary. (ish)

6:04 pm

joanne0334

yes lill ..and yes gel just pretty pict

6:05 pm

hurshy

anyway it really is important to have the right attitude for the kind of game you're playing. sudoku, now, that's very different. it's more of a zen thing. you have to know that really, the puzzle wants to solve itself and you're just along for the ride... you have just just let it flow...

6:05 pm

joanne0334

i like the pict too

6:05 pm

geli01

i LOVE sudoku too!

6:05 pm

lilliann

6:06 pm

Cathyar

hi all...bk...homework's done!

6:06 pm

lilliann

i can do sudoku in any books but the one here i can't.don't know why!!

6:06 pm

lilliann

we don't get that.

6:06 pm

hurshy

and those words do not all mean exactly the same thing, if they did, we wouldn't have them all. it's all in the nuance.

6:06 pm

geli01

wel, you might know someone who likes it, or tried to play it once and saw it wasnt for you,

6:07 pm

lilliann

hi cath.

6:07 pm

hurshy

hmm, so you're a parker type. ok. yes, i do like sudoku.

6:07 pm

geli01

thats because it is VERY HARD! (usually)

6:07 pm

Cathyar

6:08 pm

Vicuna

Oops, that gives a double i, but I guess you don't need it anyway.

6:09 pm

hurshy

vi does not mean double-i there, but that probably goes without saying

6:09 pm

hurshy

lol

6:09 pm

geli01

yes, do you not know how old i am? i do not really know hat you are talking about..

6:09 pm

hurshy

i have no idea how old you are, and did not mean to pick on you

6:09 pm

geli01

*what

6:09 pm

geli01

well, i am a 12 year old girl, (sigh, sigh)

6:09 pm

lilliann

i take it you are quite young gel01

6:10 pm

Vicuna

Hurshy doesn't pick on anyone, but she does split hairs, so just beware.

6:10 pm

geli01

its ok, that you pick on me, I am small for my age but i know my stuff

6:10 pm

joanne0334

iam i am

6:10 pm

hurshy

joanne0334

6:11 pm

hurshy

sometimes i WANT to pick on people, but i refrain.

6:11 pm

lilliann

gel01,why are you playing this game and not playing with your friends?

6:11 pm

joanne0334

i love it gel

6:11 pm

hurshy

lilli! what a thing to say!

6:11 pm

Vicuna

That is very noble of you, hurshy!

6:11 pm

geli01

because it is rainy, and also because most of my friends are idiots, (not like retards, just very childish)

6:12 pm

lilliann

whats wrong with that hursh?

6:12 pm

hurshy

a) discouraging a young babble mind

6:12 pm

hurshy

b) suppose she were insecure or had no friends and you further wounded her delicate pre-teen ego?

6:13 pm

lilliann

ok geli01.it's one way to improve your literacy.

6:13 pm

geli01

i am not discouraged

6:13 pm

Vicuna

Her delicate pre-teen ego shouldn't be on an adult chat site if it can't handle it.

6:13 pm

hurshy

c) possible misinterpretation as trying to get rid of the poor child

6:13 pm

lilliann

my nearly 8 yr old loves helping me!

6:13 pm

geli01

i am not delicate!

6:13 pm

hurshy

ok, vi, help again

6:13 pm

geli01

i do not care what anyone says about me, i am quite mature!

6:14 pm

joanne0334

6:14 pm

Vicuna

6:14 pm

Vicuna

Oh, that one!

6:15 pm

geli01

i find mind-games quite fun, and i also like making people fell like idiots.. even if that is mean

6:15 pm

Vicuna

Hurshy is so full of wit that it just spills over every which way. Sometimes it splashes on people, but they shuld just wipe it off and move on.

6:15 pm

Vicuna

Like that?

6:15 pm

joanne0334

6:15 pm

joanne0334

6:16 pm
