12:23 am

jillibus

12:23 am

Robespierre

I enjoy the early calling of words. I don't see it as cluing as much as a sharing of the excitement of finding big words early.

12:23 am

GroovyKiwi

my hubby just phoned to tell me he got to fly in a helicopter today lol

12:24 am

lshult

12:26 am

lynxxx

Kiwi. What is he doing? is he still going to Norfolk?

12:26 am

licketySplitAUS

kiwi - is your hubby in the NZ SAS?

12:26 am

Jacula

I'm glad I'm not often here at flip - all this word giving is too much too soon.

12:26 am

jillibus

fran should enjoy ha5/12

12:26 am

dcseain

i'm surprised at the words that it won't let re before, including several ba's and ta's

12:26 am

jillibus

jac, you can hide the chat!

12:26 am

cybernan

can anyone translate diwali?

12:27 am

Jacula

What on earth is the point of doing a puzzle if it's not a puzzle?

12:27 am

dcseain

translate, nan?

12:27 am

GroovyKiwi

no lickety he is doing his commissioning course to become an officer for the Cadet Corps

12:27 am

jillibus

12:28 am

dcseain

g'night melon

12:28 am

lynxxx

bye Melon - sweet dreams

12:29 am

Jacula

However, I was just taken aback at the plethora of words given at this stage of a puzzle for intelligent people. Sorry!

12:29 am

jillibus

jac, I'm slow at this and the announcements of long words are a puzzle to me in themselves

12:29 am

jillibus

the words themselves have NOT been given!

12:29 am

herinfernallady

Jac i tend to tune out when it comes to the announcement of long words (ie te10)

12:29 am

Xanika

There haven't been very many clues at all!

12:30 am

melonheadjujube

woops found a wild 7 - at7 - hehe

12:30 am

dcseain

i'd not noticed anything i'd count as a clue.

12:30 am

chic

Jac, it's happened every nite that I've been babbling for the last 2 years; it's not new...

12:30 am

melonheadjujube

now i can go to bed

12:30 am

Jacula

Even the clues don't need iving at this stage. not my bag, folks. Back later.

12:30 am

Robespierre

I can be overwhelmed by the puzzles sometimes. I find that having something like "qu 10" helps me to focus and at least have a sense that I'm looking in the right place

12:30 am

Xanika

What clues?

12:31 am

jillibus

bfn jac

12:31 am

herinfernallady

Xankia Jac means say i found a QU10 2 minutes into the grid

12:31 am

Jacula

I'll refer Ata, Haz and FM back to chat, if I remember. See what they think.

12:32 am

Xanika

Herin, that's hardly happened much today.

12:32 am

chic

Oh the Babble Overlords won't like it. they don't like anything they didn't come up with first...

12:33 am

jillibus

I say chacun à son gout

12:33 am

Jacula

No, Herin. I don't mean that. I mean, when grid first starts we should all be getting on with it until we can't find a single word more, then ASK for clues, But that's just my Humble Opinion.

12:33 am

herinfernallady

Xanika i just tune out of it. it annoys me if i didint want to see it id switch to My friends but i have learned to tune out.

12:33 am

chic

hear, hear Jilli!

12:33 am

herinfernallady

OH sorry Jac wrong end of stick

12:33 am

Jacula

Indeed, jilli, and I am exercising that choice now by going.

12:34 am

dcseain

je suis d'accord, jilli

12:34 am

herinfernallady

i dont ask for hey what is the QU 10 till about an hour in but that is my bag

12:34 am

dareaper

culo is so a word in spanish

12:34 am

Jacula

And, chic, sarcasm doesn't become you, or anyone else.

12:35 am

chic

Stuff it!

12:35 am

Jacula

Oh, okay, chic.

12:35 am

herinfernallady

zippppppped

12:35 am

jillibus

you never know which Spanish or French or Latin or Hebrew or German or Scots or whatever words are allowed and which ones are not.

12:35 am

Jacula

Nice...

12:36 am

dareaper

ok im at 80 and i see same words over and over again

12:36 am

bbnaz

dare i am still half way behind ya. i am at 42

12:37 am

Jacula

I'm just wondering what the hell happened here and I'm going to log out and come back later.

12:37 am

Xanika

bye jac

12:37 am

dcseain

ciao, jac.

12:37 am

Robespierre

2:34 am

Cat I think my other half would live off fruit cake given the chance :)

2:35 am

Cat9x

So, I am NOT the only one huh, Liz! I thought I was, never met anyone else! :)

2:35 am

Cat9x

thanks herin!!!!

2:36 am

Lizsark

I'd rather have chocolate cake any day!

2:36 am

herinfernallady

It was defiantly like that recipe but not with the stuff after step 4

2:36 am

Cat9x

those look yummyyyyy!!! thanks again!

2:36 am

herinfernallady

I cant remember at the moment

2:36 am

Cat9x

I'm not a huge chocolate fan, odd huh? :) Most people love it.

2:37 am

Lizsark

I'd just eat chocolate in any shape or form Cat... just trying not to at the moment while I'm training

2:37 am

Cat9x

That recipe will work fine herin, I am anxious to try my hand at truffles and I think they would make great gifts, box them up with paper and ribbon, so much better than store bought ya know?

2:38 am

Cat9x

I'm that was Liz with pies, and home made bread, could live iff of them. Just ask my hips :)

2:38 am

Lizsark

Is that really true Hips? :)

2:39 am

Lizsark

LOL sorry! I love bread like that too Cat

2:39 am

Cat9x

excuse typing, I really can spell, just a lousy typist :)

2:39 am

herinfernallady

and i dont think that i dipped them in chocolate with oil either

2:40 am

Cat9x

they sure make a beautiful presentation herin, in the picture.

2:40 am

dcseain

the wax/oil is entirely unnecessary for enrobing truffles or what

2:42 am

herinfernallady

I am looking for the original recipe

2:42 am

Cat9x

ok herin, if you can't find, this one will work just fine I am sure!

2:43 am

Cat9x

what is the point of the wax/oil anyway, do you know?

2:44 am

Cat9x

eluate

2:44 am

Cat9x

oh no, sooooo sorry!!!

2:44 am

dcseain

increases melting point, makes it less melty in general, and allows for mor shapability.

2:45 am

herinfernallady

what i did was melt choc over a double boiler and dipped in the rolls of cake/brandy

2:45 am

Lizsark

LOL Cat I didnt have that one, thank you :)

2:45 am

Cat9x

thanks dc! That sounds like the best bet herin, I would do that too!

2:45 am

Cat9x

LOL, you are welcome, Liz!

2:46 am

dcseain

yep, that's the way to do it, lady

2:46 am

dcseain

i am so looking forward to breakfast when i get off. I think i'll try First Watch this morning.

2:47 am

Cat9x

I'm thinking of making some homemade biscotti also, and give with fresh roasted coffee in a tine.

2:47 am

Lizsark

Just changed my icon for a Diwali candle. DC I only ever remember we have a theme when I see your icon change!

2:47 am

2:48 am

dcseain

yes, they are open daily from 5-15, serving only breakfast and lunch. I've had breakfast at 5 restaurents last 8 days, so i figure it's time to give that place a go.

2:56 am

Lizsark

I reckon that what you are thinking of there is really a proper word DC

2:56 am

Cat9x

re8/50, sounds like the word used when you belittle someone, you rid***** them. Diff consonant after the re, hope I clued that right :)

2:56 am

Lizsark

yes Cat - something you can use to place things inseide

2:56 am

at7/36 - a plus a strategy, often used in battle.

5:24 am

BabbleRabble

a filibuster is a delaying one

5:25 am

dcseain

i miss the days when senators read phone books to avoid votes

5:25 am

herinfernallady

excuse me dc?

5:26 am

dcseain

a filibuster is when a US Senator speaks contniuosly to cause a vote not to happen. Back when, they would sometimes stand there and read the phonebook to keep talking.

5:26 am

Haz1558

They must have had their reading glasses on. Phonebooks aren't printed as clearly as they used to be.

5:26 am

herinfernallady

ok

5:27 am

dcseain

between print, and age, yes, haz, usually with reading glasses. :)

5:28 am

helenary

thanks Haz

5:28 am

Haz1558

I realised that glasses were in order when other people told me that they weren't using special smudging ink for phone books.

5:28 am

BabbleRabble

they didn't need to get the names and numbers correct

5:28 am

Katydid0615

5:53 am

LoriP

I turned 36 when #4 was born. I told them to get stuffed with their amnio and genetic testing. Just more ways to make a pregnancy stressful..... IMO

5:53 am

KristineNas

a big fat blob who can't for into any of her clothes UGH lol

5:53 am

mrpresident

5:54 am

herinfernallady

Kris you need to get those flowing tops that work wonders

5:55 am

LoriP

To each their own Kristine. I never have a problem telling Dr's to get stuffed. Foe me, and I emphasize ME, the outcome of testing would have done nothing to change my mind about the testing, so why take the resources and waste them.

5:55 am

Fordy

5:59 am

mrpresident

herinfernallady

THats a good idea Carlee

6:03 am

LoriP

That's my issue with all of this testing, and with age, they'll throw everything at you. It's expensive, most of it will change nothing, and it's a roller coaster on top of a roller coaster

6:03 am

KristineNas

Amen to that Lori

6:04 am

It has taken me alot of time to come to myself and accept all of you and your love

7:06 am

Haz1558

But by the time your children reach teenagehood, you will have realised that you know NOTHING. Mark Twain once wrote something along the lines 'When I was fourteen, my father was so ignorant that I could hardly stand to be in the same room. By the time I was twenty-one, I was amazed he had learned so much.'

7:07 am

Anniebrook

Hi to everyone coming in!!!

7:59 am

NonoNanette

Hi Scrabbler, what is the cause of the pain?

hi scrabbler :)

8:00 am

Dorens

hi Annie

8:00 am

anike

Scrabbler, you sound like you have a sciatic nerve problem?

8:00 am

Scrabbler

I am hoping it is not a herniated disc, but just a sacroiliac strain.

8:00 am

BabbleRabble

Hello, mrpresident, ma'am

8:00 am

Scrabbler

BR, I want to shoot myself into my hip where the ache is.

8:00 am

Dorens

If you're good sitting, that doesn't sound like the herniated discs I know of

8:00 am

8:02 am

Mr. Bean

good morning, dorens...

8:03 am

Dorens

morning Mr. Bean. And I agree, Alfred was my buddy back in the 60's... loved that mag

8:03 am

Scrabbler

I have no pain with sneezing/coughing/straining, so I do not think it is a disc problem. I have had 2 experiences with herniated discs, the last in 1992, so this is a bit different.

8:03 am

Dorens

hope it is resolved soon scrabbs... back pain is no good, but it's nice that you can sit at the computer and babble/chat with us

8:04 am

Scrabbler

I am happy to be here. I will meet a friend for lunch, then get my hair cut.

8:05 am

Scrabbler

When are you going to Boston, Doren?

8:07 am

sometimes i have the hardest time getting my eyes to stretch in directions that the words flow

8:07 am

bbnaz

by annie. have a great story to tell you about kinney when you have a moment

8:07 am

Scrabbler

Bye, Annie--yes, I want to be better ASAP and be playing tennis with my buddies again.

8:08 am

Anniebrook

bb, would love to "hear" it , you can email me if you want

8:08 am

Scrabbler

Or go in circles, bbnaz

8:08 am

BabbleRabble

I generally ignore the words I have already found

8:08 am

bbnaz

we were leaving speech yesterday on a day we don't normally go

8:09 am

Anniebrook

BR, I printed your icon and am sending it on to a friend, G-d help us!

8:09 am

bbnaz

and three young adults came in with ds. i asked kinney if she "knew" that they had ds and she said "yes". I then asked her if she "had ds" and she promptly said NO

8:09 am

Scrabbler

But yesterday, BR, we had to remember to add "er" and "s" to many words.

8:09 am

bbnaz

so obviously she doesn't have a clue but it was quite amusing.

8:09 am

Dorens

First thing tomorow morning...was supposed to go today but it turns out Ithey need me to babysit on Monday (I'll take a personal day from work to do that), so I'll leave tomorrow

8:09 am

hi Mr P. are you healing well?

8:11 am

Anne38

ta not got it

8:11 am

Anniebrook

bbnaz, it is hard to grasp, I had the same experience with Bobby....I find Bobby this morning at the computer and he found 2 words for me...he loves to help and is so proud when he finds a word

8:11 am

Scrabbler

What is "ds"?

8:11 am

bbnaz

and yet there are "self advocates" who are quite aware of it.

8:11 am

bbnaz

ds = down syndrome

8:12 am

bbnaz

my younger daughter has down syndrome

8:12 am

bbnaz

see my flickr

8:13 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbler, my son has Down Syndrome and we just celebrated his 42 birthday at my daughter's house this weekend

8:13 am

bbnaz

i always wondered though and yesterday she showed me that it wasn't on her radar and i really think she said yes just because.

8:13 am

Dorens

That's great Annie... he is doing well... you must be a wonderful mother

8:14 am

Scrabbler

Ah, yes, now I get it. I am the pediatrician at a preschool for developmentally challenged kids. I adore kids with DS!! I would adopt a baby with DS if I were independently wealthy. How sweet, Annie and bbnaz.

8:14 am

Anniebrook

Dorens, He works and travels a city bus by himself....we are all proud of him

8:14 am

mrpresident

hi dorens! :) love to you and thanks for your kindness :)) am doing well thanks! recovering slowly but surely

8:14 am

bbnaz

sad think is with genetic testing, many babies with ds are not getting born. "doing away with disabilities" and all.

8:14 am

Dorens

That really is great.. first wrote this to Annie, but it goes out to MrP as well

8:14 am

Scrabbler

That is great for Bobby and you, Annie!!

8:15 am

Dorens

brave new world

8:15 am

Scrabbler

It is hard to be a patient patient, isn't it, mrp?

8:15 am

BabbleRabble

the courage to try; the rewards of succeeding

8:16 am

Scrabbler

I know, bbnaz, and I have known some to be given away for adoption. I just adore DS babies and kids.

8:16 am

bbnaz

oh franmag would laugh at how long it took me to get the ha5.12

8:16 am

Anniebrook

It was hard at first. 42 years ago, the atmosphere was not as accepting as it is today but we saw it through...I was determined that Bobby be raised by me and it has worked well...he is a joy

8:16 am

bbnaz

statistically the children who are born with down syndrome are the fastest to be adopted of all disabilities.

8:17 am

bbnaz

Kinney is a goofy incredible 14yo

8:17 am

bbnaz

and parents like Annie are my heroes

8:18 am

mrpresident

being a patient patient is fr**** almost impossible! I admire anyone that can hold it together and love those around them! :)

8:18 am

bbnaz

because even when Kinney was born 14 years ago, they still "suggested" institutionalizing

8:19 am

Scrabbler

Yippee for bbnaz & Annie!! You made the right decisions!!

8:20 am

Anniebrook

bbnaz, can you imagine that? I was at Willowbrook in Staten Island 42 years ago and fainted and Bobby came home from the hospital with me

8:20 am

mrpresident

oh man! those suggestions are tough!

8:20 am

BabbleRabble

my straight jacket has helped my meditation skills

8:20 am

Anniebrook

thank you, scrabbler

8:20 am

crpw48

hi all, clue for at7-36 please

8:21 am

bbnaz

I remember at the hospital. The pediatrician was describing how "sweet, loveable and easily trained" Kinney would be and I asked him if he was describing a baby or a golden retriever puppy. He didn't come back.

8:21 am

Scrabbler

Kinney is adorable, bbnaz!!!

8:21 am

bbnaz

a + strategy or plans for attack

8:21 am

bbnaz

thanks Scrab. She is quite the imp.

8:22 am

Anniebrook

LOL, love that...they told me Bobby would never walk and he won the 50 yard dash at the Special Olympics

8:23 am

bbnaz

amazing what people can accomplish when you choose to be the wind in their sails rather than the anchor off their stern.

When I speak to new parents of a DS baby, I always first congratulate them on the birth of their baby. And then I tell them that their child will bring incredible joy to them and their family.

8:23 am

Scrabbler

Well said, bbnaz.

8:23 am

bbnaz

YIKES! speaking of which, have to get Kinney to high school. will be back in about 20

8:24 am

8:24 am

Anniebrook

8:25 am

Scrabbler

8:25 am

bbnaz

8:25 am

crpw48

8:26 am

crpw48

8:26 am

NonoNanette

8:26 am

Scrabbler

Even for children that have severe problems, they still teach us so much about love. Our practice has a few severely impaired kids that many people would say have no "quality" of life.

8:27 am

crpw48

Anniebrook

Yes, I have found the same....Bobby has made the people around him more tolerant of others and everyone just loves him

8:29 am

Scrabbler

8:29 am

mrpresident

3:09 pm

Scrabbler

I am having what I believe is sclerotomal pain over L1-L2-L3 from a sacroiliac strain. I have no midline back pain, no pain with cough/sneeze/strain, and I feel better sitting, worse with standing. Thusit seems to not be a disc problem. It started after a wild tennis match on Monday and severe SI jt pain Tuesday.

3:10 pm

Most back pain, as you well know will resolve in 3-4 days if just a sprain. Sounds muscular.

Scrabbler

It has been changing all week, Inge2, and overall better.

3:13 pm

lideola

hope you feel better soon, Scrabbler

3:13 pm

Readers digest version: It was horrid.My g.f had her friend (lets call her Jane) rock up and it was all of a sudden Jane's cake too as it was janes birthday. When we went to cut the cake she had her arms around Jane and i cracked it. I was really hurt and left. My b.f spent about $150 (she spent aobut $80) on this do. Since then i have smsed her, i have msned her and i have voice called her. Nothing. THen i went to Facebook were she owned something virtual of mine and she had returned it to the holding pen./ Ihave since cut her off as i dont need that negativity in my life. I will not tollerate 3 weeks of skuling and crap as i think she was waiting for me to break down and suck up to her. NO. Not going to happen

Scarlet

Then add the first vowel to the end...

4:36 pm

joanne0334

with vowel on end

4:36 pm

sprite

one thing I learned: we cannot lose what we never had in the first place. People who treat you like th4 are no friends and never were... you have lost an illusion, not a friend.

4:37 pm

sprite

Scarlet, my pie fillings sit in my pies...

4:37 pm

evanonut

i found long ago, best to sever the ties with all friends of you don't benefit as much from the relationship as they do.

4:40 pm

Scarlet

Sounds as though you are having some fun, autumn...

4:41 pm
