There are three purple and one rose candles. (Purple dyes were one so rare and costly that they were associated with royalty; the Church has long used this colour around Christmas and Easter to honour Jesus.)

The three purple candles in the Advent wreath symbolise hope, peace, and love. These candles are lit on the first, second, and fourth Sundays of Advent. The rose candle, which symbolizes joy, is usually lit on the third Sunday.

A fifth candle is placed inside the Advent wreath. This candle is lit on Christmas Day. It is white, the color associated with angels and the birth of Jesus.

The four traditional advent themes for the four advent Sundays are:

God's people -The Candle of hope.
The old testament prophets - The Candle of Peace
John the Baptist - The Candle of Love
Mary the mother of Jesus - The Candle of Joy (a pink candle)

3:20 am

dcseain

quirk of expert - if i send to chat w/the cursor in the text, it puts a hard return in. That's a useful feature, once i'm used to it.

3:20 am

dcseain

very polite young man you have there, mrp!

3:20 am

BabbleRabble

sc 6 --- add a town in Illinois, Pe****

BabbleRabble

hello, mrp, ma'am, and hello to luke top

3:22 am

mrpresident

hi babrab :)

3:23 am

dcseain

in Spanish, yes. In English, maybe, but Enable is quirky.

3:23 am

mrpresident

I just tried that ray

3:23 am

mrpresident

Luke is fond of you dcs :)

Luke's a good bit more intelectually oriented than Jaden.

3:26 am

dcseain

sleep well, moo!

3:26 am

mrpresident

nite nite mool :)

3:26 am

dcseain

i tried by my textbooks today, but the site was not working. :/

3:27 am

dcseain

i'm such a ni6 for only just now finding it! LOL

3:27 am

mrpresident

Luke has a very high IQ and when he is 'switched on', he amazes me and lickety. He has been wanting to play babble for a while now, and he has completed half my puzzles before letting me finish. So now he has his own login

3:28 am

BabbleRabble

An entertaining puzzle game of words and letters. 250,000 Words Dictionary - Puzzles Letters uses the ENABLE dictionary to check your words. ENABLE stands for "Enhanced North American Benchmark LExicon." It's a carefully researched and meticulously compiled combination of many other dictionaries (such as Merriam Webster 10th Edition and the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary).

3:28 am

dcseain

most appropriate. It's also nice that he presents youngish in his chat style, which makes it easier to remember to phrase clues a bit less obliquely than i am wont.

3:29 am

dcseain

that's part of ENABLE's self-descrption, i gather, babrab?

3:30 am

BabbleRabble

It is the spiel used to get customers for the puzzle game

3:30 am

mrpresident

I had to teach him to use chat and warned him to be polite and thankful.

3:30 am

dcseain

I see.

3:31 am

dcseain

the general level of politeness here, even when things get tense, is one of the joys of the chat here. :)

3:32 am

BabbleRabble

the incidence of autism is increasing.... but so is the research

3:32 am

mrpresident

yes indeed it is.

3:32 am

dcseain

i do wonder on that increase - is it truly an increase, or jest better diagnosis.

3:32 am

dcseain

*just*

3:33 am

BabbleRabble

I suspect some of both, as well as a planet with ever more people

3:34 am

dcseain

does this mean you theorize that the growing population is a cause, and if so, more because more people means more, or more due to some aspect of large population. That, in turn, begs the question of how rates in US/CA compare to rates in say China or India.

3:35 am

mrpresident

the increase is due to the study that only became accepted 15 years ago

3:36 am

dcseain

oh, which is that; i'd be interested to read it.

3:36 am

mrpresident

I will go look for it

3:37 am

mrpresident

http://www.aspergia.com/whatisas.htm

3:37 am

dcseain

thanks!

3:37 am

mrpresident

that is a good introduction, will lead you to other sites and information about Asperger

3:37 am

dcseain

3:40 am

bubblepop!

wow a 10, can i have a clue for it please?

3:42 am

BabbleRabble

co 9 -- computer language and one in charge of running an institution, ****istrator; pl

3:42 am

dcseain

it's the plural of co9, bubble, which is a name for a b-complex, and starts like a mineral

3:43 am

mrpresident

ends with vit**** (nutrient tablet)

3:43 am

dcseain

ma6, pls?

3:44 am

BabbleRabble

ma 6 -- a metamophic rock or a potted game object

3:45 am

DC did you get that back on

4:53 am

Atalante

how is Jasper?

4:54 am

herinfernallady

Yes how is Jasper

4:54 am

dcseain

no, i opeted not to yesterday, and i'm not off until Monday, plus i need to buy a leather collar to thread through it to keep it on.

4:55 am

dcseain

i'm monitorying the lip. i notice the scabs are all gone, which cannot be good, though swelling is down.

4:55 am

herinfernallady

Poor kitty

4:58 am

sgams

Ouch! Yes, that they are!

5:00 am

doxy1lover

what happened to your kitty dc?

5:02 am

dcseain

not quite sure, doxy. He has an issue with his lip on the right side is all vet and i know for sure. He's on an antibiotic, and has an e-collar i will probably put back on him, as it seemed to be healing faster when he could not rub nor scratch it. Though it seems he mainly wanted the collar off to groom himself from what i've observed.

5:03 am

dcseain

so i may leave him collared when i'm not home, and uncollared when i am home, as a compromise. We'll see.

5:03 am

doxy1lover

hope he gets better soon

5:03 am

herinfernallady

DC what i have been doing with the kitty is get a damp cloth and run it over the cat and i brush her

5:03 am

dcseain

he has few teeth left, the gastric reflux seems to've destroyed them.

5:04 am

dcseain

i comb him twice a day, every day. he's a double-coat, and with few teeth left, can't do the job he used to

5:04 am

herinfernallady

Poor kitty

5:05 am

Atalante

poor boy

5:05 am

herinfernallady

I also vacuumed the cat again today

5:05 am

sgams

All these poor kitties, whats going on??? Mine has been super sick all fall, the vets think he may have Lupus!

5:05 am

Atalante

thats what I do with HObbit's collar, dc.

5:06 am

dcseain

i'm sorry, ata, what's that that you do w/hobbit's collar?

Good one, exactly, we have a 11 yo dog that was seized from a puppy mill, where she was a moma from birth to 6 yo when we got her. VERY VERY sad to see the damage (mental and physically done). Poor thing still has bad days! Awful Awful that there are "those kinds" out there

it is now after 4 am. I think I will try to get some sleep, which has evaded me all night so far.

5:16 am

sgams

Oh definitely, she is very very attached to my son, he has been a "godsend" for her, she gets tons and tons of love and affection, warmth, security, and she has come leaps and bounds, like it isn't the same dog some days BUT every once in awhile...a bad dream or something, but she calms down with some soft talk and hugs. She really is an awesome dog.

5:16 am

When i was a kid we got an Irish Setter that was a breeding dog but she was too much trouble in birth. My dad feel in love with her and she was ours.

5:20 am

dcseain

setters are nice dogs

5:20 am

dcseain

a neighbor kept some growing up

5:20 am

sgams

Yes, ALL of ours are too, and we have 4 dogs, 5 cats, a cockatiel, an alpaca, 4 goats, 3 pigs, 8 geese, and a dozen chickens. I LOVE Setters, don't see many in my part of the world

5:20 am

dcseain

Rusty, Penny, Copper, and Bronze were their names

5:21 am

dcseain

where are you, sgasms?

5:21 am

sgams

Great names...

5:21 am

herinfernallady

She was dumb big and dump. She'd run through the neighbours pond, ate the neighbours bread, run down the mountains

5:21 am

Atalante

the first dog I ever knew was a red setter

5:21 am

sgams

Vancouver Island, BC, Canada

5:21 am

herinfernallady

Nice Sgam.

5:21 am

dcseain

We have a large BC contigent in this game, i've noticed.

5:22 am

NonoNanette

what fitting names for Irish setters dc!

5:22 am

herinfernallady

The dogs name was Melly (smelly melly) and we had a Lassie dog named Jamber

5:22 am

dcseain

yes, and each was the colour of their name :)

5:22 am

dcseain

jamber. that's fun to say :)

5:22 am

NonoNanette

we had a setter once named Clancy and very much like the one your dad had herin

5:22 am

sgams

Yes, definitely, we are fortunate to have a nice little acreage, just inland from the "beaches" of the east coast of the island

5:22 am

Atalante

the setter i knew was called Doggie Dee

5:23 am

sgams

Hey, NoNo thats my cat Clancys name (the sick one)

5:23 am

herinfernallady

The dog thought it was part mountain goat to boot.

5:23 am

dcseain

people next door growing up had a German Shepherd named Rabbit

5:23 am

herinfernallady

Sgam what is the ALpaca like?

5:23 am

NonoNanette

Clancy would eat anything even onions lol

5:23 am

dcseain

I love watching the mountain goats when i'm out West. We don't have them here in the East.

5:23 am

sgams

Hahah I used to have a mini goat who thopught she was a dog!

5:24 am

herinfernallady

Nono i didn't think onions were good for dogs?

5:24 am

dcseain

are alpacas as...clever and devious, as goats?

5:24 am

dcseain

better onions than chocolate for puppies

5:24 am

NonoNanette

ahhh sgams hope your clancy gets better soon

5:24 am

herinfernallady

We lived in the Blue Mountains in Sydney so there was forever to run as a kid

5:25 am

dcseain

always a bonus for children, room to roam

5:25 am

sgams

Alpacas are AWESOME! they are soooo easy to tend to and their fur catches a fair price in the Spring. Our Emma, lives with the goats BUT is NOTHING like them, goats are nutty as fruitcakes

5:25 am

NonoNanette

true dc had to be very careful not to leave any chocolate about

5:25 am

Atalante

goats are insane

5:26 am

herinfernallady

Goats eat everything

5:26 am

Atalante

goats jump anything and escape

5:26 am

herinfernallady

Does the ALpaca mind the goats?

5:26 am

dcseain

yeah, farm near where i grew up had one that would chew through fences, chains, and what. Had him in a pen three fences deep, of logs, metal and stone from inside to out.

5:26 am

carra

fainting goats! lol

5:27 am

Atalante

our goat used to regularly jump over our 6' fence to escape and trot around the village

5:28 am

dcseain

how very goat-like. At least the neighbours knew and returned him, i hope?

5:28 am

sgams

Oh the goat stories I can tell, we had one named Molly (the dog one) who one time started doing piroettes down our porch, and climbing the walls....turns out the darn goat had eaten a few too many rotting blackberries She was DRUNK as a Skunk!!! Mostly Emma doesn't mind the goats, until Dinky tries to eat her food then watch out!

5:28 am

Atalante

her ;) oh yes. Harriet was almost a village goat lol

5:29 am

dcseain

alpacas eat a different purina chow from goats? ;) Purina Alpaca Chow - it must exist. LOL

5:30 am

herinfernallady

Oh yes animals drunk on fermented berries

5:30 am

sgams

Fainting goats are soooo weird! My mom says no no no to fainting goats she thinks she would freak out too much like they were dead....but generally they only faint when scared

5:30 am

Atalante

Hobbit once ate a load of sloes we'd used in sloe gin out of our rubbish bin. That was funny

5:31 am

carra

they are quite funny though..wonder if any have broken bones from falling

5:31 am

dcseain

heh, that's funny, ata

5:31 am

Atalante

it really really was. luckily she didnt eat enough to seriously affect her, just enough for amusement

5:32 am

sgams

Yes, there is Alpaca text, and goat text, but they All love a good alfalfa hay, especially now with snow on the ground. Ah, Emma likes it all even the goose food. Only real problems is if you have sheep text and goat text, because there is too much Copper I believe for sheep in goat text, or the other way around, its been awhile since we've had sheep

5:32 am

herinfernallady

One night I thought the guys were mucking about when i heard a thump on the porch. Turns out there was a possum drunk as all get out on the fermented fruit from our back tree. Drunk fell of the roof.

5:33 am

herinfernallady

Ata that poor dog

5:33 am

dcseain

i love the smell of alfalfa hay

5:33 am

sgams

Oh Dang!

5:34 am

dcseain

oh dang?

5:34 am

sgams

Should come sit in my Jeep dcs, it reeks of it since the last load I got a few days ago, POWERFUL!

5:34 am

Atalante

the funniest thing Hobbit ate was a really REALLY hot Thai curry I'd made. She scarfed a few bits and then RAN to her waterbowl. She had 3 waterbowls full of water

5:35 am

dcseain

lol

5:35 am

NonoNanette

poor Hobbit!

5:35 am

herinfernallady

Ata that is damn funny

5:35 am

carra

there was a baby possum in my friends garage in a box of tennis balls.. no idea how they got there... shes like theres something hairy in that box so i lifted it up and there was .. there was a guy tiling her shower that day we made him pick it up and put it outside lol

5:35 am

sgams

Are you making fun of my speech dc??? hehehehe

5:35 am

NonoNanette

once had a cat that craved anything with mint

5:35 am

Atalante

I know! poor babe. I felt so bad for her but it was so soooooooo funny

5:36 am

NonoNanette

he even unzipped a friends purse once to get at some peppermint gum she had

5:36 am

sgams

Catmint NoNo

5:36 am

dcseain

no, was wondering what you were getting at is all. I'm from the South, it's familiar that usage, it is :)

5:36 am

sgams

??

5:36 am

herinfernallady

Cara that is cute

5:36 am

dcseain

seeing as catnip is a mint, that makes sense, nono

5:37 am

Atalante

awwww nono! thats a good party trick!

5:37 am

carra

co 7.44 clue please?

5:37 am

sgams

Ok dc, got it...the drunk possum falling off the roof....oh Dang!

5:37 am

herinfernallady

i need sleep soon. B.fs still not home i really should bolt the down stars door on him make him sleep on the couch

5:37 am

dcseain

able to be encoded, carra

5:37 am

NonoNanette

true to a degree dc but he even wanted my peppermint schnapps when i had some

5:37 am

herinfernallady

NOno that is funny

5:38 am

Atalante

did you give him a taste?

5:38 am

dcseain

! oh my, that is extreme, you'd think the alcohol would scare him off. did you let him have some?

5:38 am

carra

ty

5:38 am

NonoNanette

i would let him lick a drop or two from my finger and that is all

5:38 am

NonoNanette

but he always came running when i had some

5:38 am

carra

my cat likes cherry jolly ranchers ( candy)

5:38 am

herinfernallady

I have to get a water fountain for the cat for fresh water for the summer

5:39 am

NonoNanette

i have a picture of him trying to lick out the empty glass someplace

5:39 am

herinfernallady

Oh cute nono

5:41 am

sgams

Herin, we have the kind you fill up and flip over into a "holding spot" where they drink, it has a one way spout so it only fills up so much, then the cat drinks more comes out. We are quite happy with them, we've used them for rabbits, and the dogs as well.

5:41 am

sgams

They have feeders like that too.

5:41 am

NonoNanette

i found the picture..... its on my icon now

5:41 am

herinfernallady

Ok do you think this is fair. The b.f went out at 2pm to a mates place said he would be back for tea and would bring it home what i needed. Since its now 1040pm and hes still out should i get him to make me dinner tomorrow night?

5:42 am

herinfernallady

Sgam she needs the fountain with constant flow to stop it stagnating it gets hot here

5:43 am

NonoNanette

sounds fair to me Herin

5:44 am

herinfernallady

Even though he works 50-60 hour weeks i think so to damn it. He could of phoned me

5:45 am

sgams

Oh yeah, I guess so hey, it would go stagnate pretty quick I imagine, I was thinking thats going to be pretty pricy, could you use one of those table top decorative fountains...one of our cats drinks that water the whole summer. AND absolutely he should AT least cook you dinner, as I highly doubt an excuse he could use here of stuck in snow, would work well this time of year there!

5:46 am

Atalante

and he has his mobile phone switched off?

5:46 am

herinfernallady

Sgam that is a wonderful idea about the table top decorative fountains.

5:47 am

dcseain

i must away for shift turnover. Hope all of yall have a lovely day/evening/night :)

5:47 am

herinfernallady

Ata he has no mobile

urf. yes. that is extremely rude. if you're that late, you phone and explain!

5:47 am

herinfernallady

Ata he is at hes budys place probably forgot the time. Ok my cat is a stoner. She is staring at the wall

5:57 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Ro, on a Sunday. It is a convenience for the parents, and, although I don't like working on Sundays (I do one a month), it makes Mondays less busy.

5:57 am

NonoNanette

we have that forcast for later today carlee

5:57 am

rolin

*nodding*...thats really great that the service is available..

5:58 am

5:59 am

herinfernallady

YYes rolin its getting worse

5:59 am

herinfernallady

Nice Carlee

5:59 am

Scrabbler

The problem, Ro, is that parents demand to be seen rather than understanding that Sunday visits are for urgent problems. It is more convenient for them to come in on Sunday than during the week when both parents work and the kid is in school or at day care.

5:59 am

carleekat

now I am trying to figure out what to feed the gang for breakfast...

5:59 am

Atalante

7:21 am

7:21 am

Atalante

7:22 am

Uneaixoise

hey! I'm here! Was just loading stuff in the car to take up to my mom's before the torrential rains arrive!

7:23 am

NonnieLight

hello une...no ice?

7:23 am

Uneaixoise

One of her caregivers and I are decorating her tree today!

7:23 am

NonnieLight

That sounds like a wonderful thing to be doing, une.

7:23 am

Uneaixoise

nah, too warm . . . but just saw the NYC Xmas tree in the snow on TV--sooooo pretty!

7:24 am

Uneaixoise

we've done it together the last couple of years--she's as goofy as I am!

7:24 am

periwinkle

thanks Ata found the ma7, still looking for the co7

7:25 am

Atalante

hey, une, we've got a new spaniel lover on babble, called - eep, what was she called? Pokey71 or something. She has cockers :D

7:25 am

Uneaixoise

oh, cool!!!

7:26 am

Atalante

and has the most *adorable* user pic. watch out for her!

7:26 am

Uneaixoise

*up periscope . . . scanning the horizon*

7:32 am

Uneaixoise

ok, ata, changed my icon :-)

7:33 am

Atalante

awwwwww thats *adorable*. there is nothing as adorable as an adorable spaniel looking adorable

7:34 am

Uneaixoise

LOL so true!!! When I get to her house he comes racing out, nearly knocking me down, 'cause he knows I always bring him rawhide treats!

7:35 am

Uneaixoise

(and rubs and kisses!)

7:36 am

Uneaixoise

ok I'll stop now . . . jeez, I'm such a dog freak!

7:36 am

periwinkle

brb

7:36 am

Gail

I stil miss my cocker, Misty, who died several years ago. She was so much fun.

7:36 am

Atalante

awww :) I went to see my dermatologist last week, we talked for about 2 minutes about my skin and about 20 minutes about cockers, cos he'd just been on a training weekend for dogs to pick up birds on shoots. and he'd seen a cocker in full working action for the first time ever. and our conversation kept getting interrupted with "and it *boinged*! and I mean *BOINGED*! and it didn't stop! all day!"

7:37 am

Uneaixoise

LOL :-D

7:37 am

Atalante

awww I'm sorry Gail :( I share my cocker with Lizsark whose cocker died a few months ago, you can share her too if you'd like

7:37 am

Gail

That would be nice. My border collie passed away last month. I am dogless for the first time in over thirty years.

7:38 am

Uneaixoise

I lost my sweet girl several years ago as well . . . one of the Humane Assn volunteer coordinators shares her precious black cocker with me . . . her name is . . . wait for it . . . Penny Lane!

7:38 am

Atalante

oh no. even worse. are you going to get another?

7:38 am

Uneaixoise

oh, Gail, I'm so sorry . . .

7:39 am

Uneaixoise

Adopt adopt adopt!!

7:39 am

Atalante

I never had a dog before Hobbit. Now I truly cant imagine being without one

7:39 am

Gail

I will look in the spring. With 18 inches of snow in the forecase, I'm not missing the dog walking.

7:40 am

Uneaixoise

I haven't been without a dog pretty much my whole life . . .

7:40 am

Gail

That should be forecast. I need more coffee.

7:40 am

Uneaixoise

18 inches--good grief!

7:40 am

Atalante

new year, new companion. sounds good!

7:40 am

Gail

First big storm of the year on it's way. The skiers will be happy.

7:41 am

Atalante

I remember when we took Hobbit down to Italy in the winter. She's only ever seen snow of an inch or two here. So she boinged straight into a snow drift, and all that was visible were her ears

7:41 am

Atalante

she was very confused

7:42 am

Gail

Misty did the little snowplow thing with her nose. We lived in Northern Michigan and she loved the snow.

7:43 am

Gail

She also loved to be buried in piles of leaves and would hide until she couldn't stand it and would jump out.

7:43 am

Uneaixoise

aaawwwww

7:44 am

Atalante

aww! darling! what colour was she?

7:45 am

Gail

She was buff, mostly, with a little gold.

7:45 am

Uneaixoise

oh, how pretty

7:45 am

Atalante

gorgeous! so she could really hide in the leaves :D

7:45 am

Gail

She was an old fashioned kind of cocker, and her ears were set a little too high, but so cute.

7:46 am

Atalante

who cares about such things :D hobbit was given away by her breeder because she had a small white patch on her chest. pffff!

7:46 am

Gail

My border collie went to work with me every day at the doctor's office. It's still hard telling people she is gone. The Fed Ex driver had us take a picture of her with him so he could have it. He really loved Queenie.

7:47 am

Atalante

I can't imagine how empty things must feel now :(

7:47 am

Uneaixoise

oh, Gail, that is so sweet . . . and that empty feeling is really rough . . .

7:48 am

Atalante

our local pub / restaurant has a live-in little girl buff cocker. Next time I go, I'll try and get some photos. She's called Ruby

7:48 am

Gail

It's amazing what a big space a dog leaves behind. I will find another when the time is right. One more back surgery to be done and then I will start looking around for a dog.

7:48 am

Uneaixoise

please do, ata

7:49 am

Atalante

the right dog will find you, gail, at the right time. I firmly believe that

7:49 am

Gail

My neighbor has the cutest black and white corgi, I covet that dog. He is adorable.

7:49 am

Gail

My neighbor has the cutest black and white corgi, I covet that dog. He is adorable.

7:49 am

Gail

ooops

7:50 am

Atalante

I love corgis, my cousin breeds blue merle ones

7:51 am

Gail

This one is black with a white head and black ears and white paws. I never saw one that color before.

7:52 am

Atalante

there is a huge variety of Pembroke COrgi colours, most of which you never see. The blue ones are stunning, but I've only ever seen them at my cousins. She's got a blue / black spotty one too :)

7:54 am

Gail

I have only met two corgis, and they were both so sweet.

7:54 am

Atalante

Cardigans are snappy little brats - like the ones the Queen has - but pembrokes are generally all adorable and sweet

7:55 am

Atalante

*and* they can outrun a springer spaniel. in speed and endurance. amazing, eh>

7:58 am

Gail

Has anybody ever read Gladys Taber's books about raising cockers?

7:59 am

Atalante

no - would you recommend them? I've never found any books I enjoy reading about cockers

8:01 am

Gail

They are my favorites. She lived in Connecticut and wrote Journals about country life and raising dogs. They are hard to find now, mostly out of print, but easier to find on the computer. She wrote fiction, too, but I love her journals. My son used to live right down the road from her farm in Connecticut.

8:01 am

Atalante

oh wonderful! *writes the name down*

8:01 am

Gail

There is a website about her, do a search for Stillmeadow - that's the name of her farm. You can read excerpts of the books and all about her.

8:02 am

Gail

She is the reason I got a cocker, actually.

8:04 am

Atalante

I got mine rather randomly. But now I don't ever want a different dog

8:04 am

Gail

I had a basset hound, too. They are fantastic dogs.

8:05 am

Atalante

oh they are! my best friend has one :D

8:05 am

Gail

He was a total clown. He loved to think up things to make us laugh at him,

8:06 am

Atalante

they are such funny little things. they look so sad, but are so full of life

8:07 am

Gail

He has so much energy, we would have the three boys come over from next door to play with him to wear him out. All you would see was a cloud of dust with arms, legs, ears and a tail coming out.

8:08 am

Atalante

their tails are wonderful! so long and so "question mark-y"

8:09 am

Gail

He would try to be sneaky when he stole the dishtowel or tried to squeeze into the cat's bed. He really thought we couldn't see him.

8:10 am

Atalante

they do think they are very sneaky, don't they? I think they think they can slip under the radar because they are short lol. unfortunately the wagging floppy tail doesn't help the secreecy

8:12 am

phandmd

does anyone have a clue for the ma 6/7 pair pls?

8:13 am

Aloyisius

Hello Babblers! Gail, I'm so sorry for your loss.. it has been over 9 months since we lost Taz and I still grieve for him.. he made me laugh every day.. we do want another dog as soon as we settle down some..

8:13 am

Atalante

there's a grid? where?

8:13 am

Gail

He would tiptoe, glancing at you out of the corner of his eyes. We would pretend we didn't see this 60 pound oaf in the room, just to see what he was going to do. He liked to steal towels to use as pillows or else he would try to stuff the cat under his chin to sleep on in the sunshine.

8:13 am

Gail

Words? There are words?

8:14 am

Atalante

ha ha ha oh thats quite fabulous!

8:14 am

Aloyisius

phand.. we used to play with the little glass balls, trying to accumulate more of them.. such pretty colors

8:14 am

Jacula

A dog with a cat stuffed under is chin as a cushion? LOL!

8:14 am

Atalante

ma6/7 - type of stone, used to make Italian palaces and worktops

8:14 am

phandmd

8:14 am

Atalante

Aloyisius

8:15 am

Jacula

Hi, Ata.

8:15 am

Gail

The cat didn't think it was funny, but we did.

8:16 am

Jacula

Do you have a pic of that, Gail?

8:16 am

Gail

Probably. In a box somewhere. I didn

8:17 am

Gail

Sorry. I didn't get him in the divorce. I got the cocker and the two cats.

8:18 am

Atalante

sounds like that was done by weight. 1 cocker + 2 cats = 1 basset

8:19 am

Gail

Ha. I had bought him for my ex as a birthday gift, so he stayed with him. He was a lot of dog to handle.

8:20 am

cheeky

how is this for a misspelled phantom - balarina

8:21 am

Atalante

What a weird batch of words today! I just logged back on to get my last dozen or so, and I've needed a2z for every one of them. The 2 th/6's for example--they don't even look plausible as English words. My monkeys look at combos like that with undisguised contempt. (Incidentally, they do happen to be anagrams of each other...)

1:06 pm

FMitch

lol jan, my mokies took one look and left me to it!

Catching up to you....105 and counting

1:12 pm

Fireworks time. Oh, and in the unlikely event that this helps with the anagrammatic th/6's, the first is a Scottish word for small guts, the second a chemical used in vulcanizing rubber. How I've managed all these years without them in my vocabulary I can't imagine.

1:12 pm

Slow down, the finish line is a way off *grin* and Im too full of roast lunch to run.

BabbleR it is quite frustrating, just as you get stuck into a subject you zoom off to another.

1:58 pm

BabbleRabble

I took a course like that forty years ago

1:58 pm

Lizsark

2:03 pm

leighprefect

*proud of herself* Mama- I'm going to fix my resume up a little, add my student teaching, and then start sending it out. I'll probably start with subbing first though.

2:03 pm

FMitch

BabbleR, was the course you did for personal enjoyment?

2:03 pm

Atalante

fish certainly do rock :)

2:04 pm

BabbleRabble

been reading 1984 again and appreciate big brother thought police and doublespeak so much more in today's political machinations

2:04 pm

rururocks

some do play bass

2:04 pm

FMitch

Hands up al those Marine Biologist or paeleontoligically similar professions?

2:05 pm

pennyfinn

Hi, I tothe games.com, where do you type in the words

2:05 pm

stidmama

good for you leigh -- never too early to start getting your name out there... and just from my experience this year, though I don't have a teaching credential, I had been working less than a month in mother's classroom when I was approached to apply for two separate para positions... just being there so they can see what you are like is the key

2:05 pm

leighprefect

=)

2:05 pm

angelinaxox

hi TO

2:05 pm

FMitch

oh darn missed your post so am shot down in flames ... aargh

2:06 pm

rururocks

2:06 pm

FMitch

Hello TO

2:06 pm

BabbleRabble

enjoyed invertebrate paleontology

2:06 pm

angelinaxox

what grade do you want to teach leigh?

2:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi mitch! nice to see you

2:07 pm

Atalante

invert palaeo *shudders* teaching that is not fun

2:07 pm

leighprefect

Anywhere between 3rd and 5th, preferrably, but I'm not going to be picky as long as I get a job!

2:07 pm

BabbleRabble

took the course right when plate tectonics was takiong off

2:07 pm

Krista

Yeah, they kinda don't. My friend is friends with the lead singer and I don't have the heart to tell her I hate them!

2:08 pm

rururocks

teaching wine courses is fun

2:08 pm

FMitch

Being a student on a wine course would be even more fun

2:08 pm

angelinaxox

i wanted to teach that age, but ended up in kindergarten and love it

2:08 pm

rururocks

I listened to them once and said to myself what is the big deal with them

2:08 pm

angelinaxox

lol ruru and and fmitch

2:08 pm

Krista

I was a sub when I was young (20)..the kids ripped me to shreds because I looked their age!

2:09 pm

BabbleRabble

took awhile to get the full grasp of land masses moving around

2:09 pm

stidmama

yes leigh -- and it's good to get experience in many grades. that way you know both what the challenges are in getting kids to the point you are teaching, and the things the kids need in the later grades.

2:09 pm

Krista

Exactly, ruru.

2:09 pm

rururocks

yeah that is akin to big sis

2:09 pm

Atalante

trying to teach undergrads the differences between types of fossil coral is not an experience I ever care to repeat

2:09 pm

Krista

I thought you meant you were there when the plates were shifint, Babble R. :)

2:09 pm

leighprefect

I think Kindergarten is a great age, but I just don't think I have the patience. I'd love to try!

2:09 pm

Krista

2:11 pm

Atalante

2:11 pm

FMitch

I thought you wer... never mind.

2:11 pm

stidmama

atalante! what's the scientific name for those critters?

2:12 pm

leighprefect

Okay, so my k key is not working right, which is a key I kinda use a lot, with my real name and all..........so I was thinking, do I get a Mac this time around?

2:12 pm

missmrocks

brics

2:12 pm

Atalante

Anthozooids

2:12 pm

Krista

Ata, I would love to be in that class. We have miocene (I think) era fossil cliffs a few miles from here so I've always loved that kind of thing.

2:12 pm

stidmama

leigh -- didn't you have that problem the LAST time you were on???

2:12 pm

FMitch

Bless you!

2:12 pm

stidmama

ooh. what a cool word! *filing anthozooids away for future* it sounds very "sci-fi"

2:12 pm

phandmd

why not just get a new keyboard? or is this an excuse?

2:12 pm

leighprefect

Probably. =)

2:13 pm

leighprefect

Because it's a laptop, and that would be a pain in the butt.

2:13 pm

stidmama

Macs are supposed to be wonderful, but they are expensive -- can you get a good discount?

2:13 pm

Atalante

miocene. sea urchins. more sea urchins. LOL

2:13 pm

phandmd

yes indeed

2:13 pm

leighprefect

Just 100 off as a student. That's all. =(

2:13 pm

BabbleRabble

drop the keyboard on the floor a few times

2:13 pm

stidmama

we have sea urchins -- and sand dollars -- here. are we living in the miocene?

2:14 pm

72 Temple Owl

does anyone here watch QVC? i am wondering about the dell laptops they have today...

2:14 pm

stidmama

that's not a huge discount leigh... *thinking*

2:14 pm

rururocks

I thought sea urchins were surfers?

2:14 pm

stidmama

what about a refurb? those are less expensive but usually work just as well.

2:14 pm

Atalante

hopefully not .... dont think there was babble in the miocene

2:15 pm

rururocks

well babblerabble was there so it must have been

2:15 pm

Krista

I'll email you some photos sometime and you can tell me what we've got. Not urchins, so I have have the wrong epoch.

2:15 pm

BabbleRabble

was the miocene anything like the disco scene?

2:15 pm

Krista

Though the fossils at Calvert's Cliffs are miocene.

2:15 pm

phandmd

I heard it is a real good idea to get a refurbished dell. They are guarenteed to work

2:15 pm

phandmd

I was also told recently that dell is the best pc on the market today

2:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

krista, iwent there but i had no idea what to look for

2:16 pm

rururocks

LOL babble....

2:16 pm

leighprefect

I have a dell now. My last one was a dell too. I love the computer, but the keyboards both failed fairly quickly. This computer is only about 18 months old.

2:16 pm

rururocks

dell is

2:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

qvv has 17 in laptop for about 1500 with software and three yr warranty

2:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:16 pm

leighprefect

I'm hoping to make it through to my tax return and then just use that towards a new purchase.

2:17 pm

BabbleRabble

fossels in bell bottoms would be a sight

2:17 pm

Krista

Shark's teeth are the most obvious. I have a good website for you if you ever go back. Saphyre lives right there.

2:17 pm

rururocks

the disco scene did have some dinosaurs though bbr

2:17 pm

Atalante

yeah, I should be able to tell you something. Especially on the shark's teeth

2:17 pm

leighprefect

Dells are great desktops, they really are....but I dunno. I heard support and assistance for Apple is awesome.

2:17 pm

stidmama

feather -- if you're there, facebook is taking FOREVER to load the games. I will try one more time, then take a break. I now have seven games going?!?

2:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

i ran hrough two dell laptops at work. and i wan't the only one

2:18 pm

rururocks

I can't believe I used to wear bell bottoms..yikes

2:18 pm

FMitch

Finally, Fireworks!!!

2:18 pm

stidmama

I have a toshiba leigh, the second one for me. Reasonable price, last well. (had extended warranty on both -- needed a new inside with the last one)

2:18 pm

stidmama

YAY FM!

2:18 pm

rururocks

2:18 pm

phandmd

2:18 pm

angelinaxox

2:18 pm

BabbleRabble

congrats, FMitch

2:19 pm

puca

i never chat, but i have to say that Dell support gave me some of my worst computer experiences ever. i hates them :(

2:19 pm

Krista

The fossils from my immediate area are just cast/mold fossils in the rock. They're the ones I'm not sure about. That would be great.

2:19 pm

leighprefect

I do have four year support on this one. hmmmmm..... But I don't want to have to send my computer out.

2:19 pm

stidmama

It has built-in wireless, a bunch of USB ports, etc. I don't like the overly shiny screen, but apparently that's the "style" this year. And I don't like Vista, but you can get them loaded with XP if you want

2:19 pm

FMitch

thank you thank you, time for a celebratory mug of tea BRB

2:19 pm

stidmama

I don't like Sony myself -- very unhelpful.

2:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:19 pm

rururocks

2:19 pm

Atalante

2:20 pm

leighprefect

PS. Yay FM!

2:20 pm

BabbleRabble

dell was sued by the attorney general of New York for false advertising

2:20 pm

Krista

Haven't done Scrabulous yet today...getting sick of waiting for the fabu upgrade.

2:20 pm

BabbleRabble

DoD = department of defense?

2:20 pm

angelinaxox

bye ruru, take care

2:20 pm

stidmama

bye ruru!

2:20 pm

Krista

bye ruru

2:20 pm

FMitch

Ata, he is above such things and refuses point blank .. translates to , is waiting to be washed up from earlier.

2:21 pm

leighprefect

Okay, I have a few personal needs to take care of. I shall return in.....seven minutes.

2:22 pm

stidmama

later leigh!

2:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

bye leigh

2:23 pm

BabbleRabble

Atalante, do know of an environmental journal, newsletter of magazine that keeps up with climate change?

2:23 pm

stidmama

okay, it finally loaded. NOW I am going to get breakfast. It is only 12:23 here.. LOL

2:23 pm

stidmama

back in a few

2:23 pm

Krista

We should play a game sometime, Stidmama. BFN

2:24 pm

72 Temple Owl

hey all, we had our first snow today - a dusting, but still snow

2:26 pm

Krista

Yay, TO! We were disappointed, especially the kids. We got sleet. :(

2:26 pm

Atalante

hmmmm. Nature is probably the best. Or Science, over there, just because they are the best generalised journals who would report any major changes with links to further work

2:27 pm

leighprefect

Early return! Hahahaha. I'm good like that.

2:27 pm

leighprefect

We got about half an inch here.

2:28 pm

Atalante

there will be some specialist climatology journals, though

2:28 pm

BabbleRabble

thanks, I sent that oil grab article to a NY Times opinion columnist hoping he would do a story or two

2:29 pm

Krista

Is it sticking, leigh? I'd like to look out and see everything all snowy and pretty.

2:29 pm

Atalante

i'll have a think so more though, in case some spark of brilliance appears.

2:29 pm

BabbleRabble

thanks

2:29 pm

Inge2

Science and Nature do a great job keeping up with research on climate change. American Geophysical Union puts out several more specialized publications that cover the topic.

2:30 pm

Atalante

funnily enough, as well, the oil industry journals come up with a lot of interesting things about climate change and how the world is going to work in the future. If I come across any new brilliant articles, I'll scan them for you

2:30 pm

stidmama

hello again.

2:30 pm

Inge2

And does anyone have the E from the top right (next to the W)?

2:30 pm

Krista

Hi! FYI, Scrabulous is working really well for me today. Strange.

2:31 pm

Atalante

and for me!

2:31 pm

leighprefect

It was actually all here and stuck this morning by the time I woke up at 9. I'm hoping that we get a little more tonight.

2:31 pm

stidmama

inge2, that's the es 7

2:31 pm

stidmama

es + coca **** + pirate-sound letter

2:32 pm

FMitch

Marches stidmama off to the penalty box!

2:32 pm

Inge2

thank you stid. I had tried that without the pirate part ;)

2:32 pm

stidmama

what? where? how?

2:32 pm

Atalante

oooo fierce!

2:32 pm

Krista

checking our forecast...

2:32 pm

Inge2

what did stid do except give a great clue?

2:32 pm

FMitch

There, there stiddy, have a cup of tea

2:32 pm

stidmama

*blush* oh dear.... *sitting in penalty box with chocolate moose, wondering if I should start on his antlers or his hoofs*

2:32 pm

FMitch

She said co4/6

2:33 pm

Atalante

antlers

2:33 pm

leighprefect

Actually, I'm surprised this is your first snow, TO.... My aunt in Kunletown got four inches just before Thanksgiving.

2:33 pm

FMitch

LOL

2:33 pm

Krista

30% chance of snow Wed. Fudge. That's not going to amount to much.

2:33 pm

Inge2

oooh yeas.

2:34 pm

stidmama

next time, I'll use pepsi for the clue...

2:34 pm

Inge2

s'okay, I had it already...I work with the stuff.

2:34 pm

leighprefect

Hmpf. I love snow.

2:34 pm

Krista

sadly enough stid, I didn't get the clue after your faux pas

2:34 pm

FMitch

((stid))

2:35 pm

stidmama

I don't have fo' paws... I have hands and feet! *defiant look*

2:36 pm

Krista

All the better to eat that moose with.

2:36 pm

stidmama

definition Krista, is "a snake mackerel, esp. Lepidocybium flavobrunneum"

2:37 pm

Krista

AH..got the clue finally. DOH

2:37 pm

Krista

And not from that last entry, there, Stid. :)

2:37 pm

stidmama

arrrrr! *brandishing sabre*

2:37 pm

FMitch

Anyone seen Haz today?

"man struck by lightning faces battery charge" is the weird headline my son just read to me from his funny book...

2:38 pm

leighprefect

I have 43 to go, all 4-7 letters.

2:38 pm

stidmama

2:38 pm

stidmama

go leigh go!

2:38 pm

stidmama

I have 85, one more and I will grab the list

2:39 pm

Krista

HA! That's a great one. Jay Leno would love that.

2:39 pm

FMitch

Stid, have you achieved your writing target?

2:39 pm

stidmama

"bridge held up by red tape" rofl

2:39 pm

stidmama

"Queen Mary having bottom scraped"

2:39 pm

Krista

LOL! Love it.

2:40 pm

stidmama

2:40 pm

stidmama

he doesn't know who Queen Mary is...

2:40 pm

FMitch

Just ralised your icon says it all. Well done!

2:40 pm

Krista

that's awesome (the QM one)

2:41 pm

stidmama

2:41 pm

Robo-bonobo

Robo-bonobo

thanks, i found it

2:44 pm

Krista

my daughter (has Aspberger's) learns a lot from joke books..she take things very literally, so it's a good way to teach irony, figures of speech, etc. It gets a little tedious explaining them all tho...

2:44 pm

FMitch

You should be stid, it is quite an achievement. You won't know what to do with yourself now!

2:45 pm

leighprefect

Okay. Done with the fours.

2:45 pm

stidmama

Krista, there is a similarity between your child and mine. subtleties of normal discourse are hard to teach.

2:45 pm

stidmama

go leigh go!

2:45 pm

BabbleRabble

pl the ti 5 too

2:45 pm

4:30 pm

Flask1

4:30 pm

phandmd

do 6/27 = can do

4:31 pm

phandmd

oh, ok

4:31 pm

Haz1558

inge, we need someone with time on their hands to do that.

4:31 pm

Flask1

thanks phand

4:32 pm

inge

Do you know anyone with that qualification?\

4:32 pm

Haz1558

No - anyone who babbles has more than enough time taken out of their day.

4:32 pm

Scrabbler

Sc6 please?

4:33 pm

carra

yay people playing bagpipes are outside lol

4:33 pm

Atalante

i'm sure lickety could fit it in in his 3 microseconds of free time a day

4:33 pm

Haz1558

And people's editing technique might vary a lot.

4:33 pm

carra

im glad they are walking by and not staying in front of my house

4:33 pm

phandmd

sc = points - last letter + w vowels

4:33 pm

carra

hah

4:33 pm

Scrabbler

Cool. I love bagpipes.

4:34 pm

phandmd

that would be 2 vowels

4:34 pm

Scrabbler

I somehow figured it out, TY, phandd

4:34 pm

Haz1558

The queen is wakened by bagpipes every morning. Prince Philip walks up and down the bedroom, the corgis hide their heads and howl.

4:34 pm

phandmd

yw

4:35 pm

Scrabbler

The first sc5 please?

4:35 pm

carra

4:35 pm

carra

4:35 pm

Scrabbler

I am just NOT seeing words today.

4:35 pm

phandmd

4:36 pm

Scrabbler

Where are you, CArra?

4:36 pm

Atalante

my uncle composed a bagpipes tune for my wedding, he played it as we left the church

4:36 pm

carra

connecticut

4:36 pm

Scrabbler

TY, again, phandmd

4:36 pm

phandmd

oh good I was hoping that would work

4:37 pm

Haz1558

That would have been something special, Atalante. I quite like the bagpipes, although they're loud in a confined space.

4:37 pm

inge

How bad is the snow, carra? Friend of mine is driving from Boston to NY tomorrow. Anything to?worry aboutr

4:37 pm

Haz1558

Scrabbler, it's a nasty grid today.

4:37 pm

Scrabbler

I want bagpipes at my wedding and reception.

4:37 pm

Atalante

I don't really, but I love that my uncle did such a thing for me

4:38 pm

AsGreen

ooops disappeared for awhile - now I'm hear.....

4:38 pm

AsGreen

*here

4:38 pm

inge

well, get going Scrabbler! Or you will be too old to walk down the aisle

4:39 pm

Scrabbler

Haha, Inge!

4:39 pm

Atalante

there's always a zimmerframe

4:40 pm

inge

But, if----can I be your bridesmaid, Scrab?

4:40 pm

Scrabbler

i am in no rush--things arejust fine as they are

4:40 pm

Haz1558

Or roller skates under voluminous skirts.

4:40 pm

Haz1558

Just push her up the aisle.

4:41 pm

inge

did Carra leave? I wanted taht weathr report from Fairfield, CT

4:42 pm

Atalante

when will churches get travelator things going up the aisle like they have at Heathrow

4:42 pm

Haz1558

The last thing she said was 'connecticut'

4:42 pm

inge

Ata, what is a zimmerframe?

4:43 pm

Atalante

a frame around the front of you that you can hold on to while walking

4:43 pm

Atalante

that was a very very bad description

4:43 pm

inge

oh, we just call them walkers

4:44 pm

Haz1558

I thought it was good!

4:44 pm

inge

I knew what you meant, Ata

4:44 pm

carra

Inge.. its 29 degrees..with snow on the ground

4:44 pm

Atalante

oh really? ok, I'll be smug then!

4:44 pm

Haz1558

The zimmerframe always makes it sound as though it's intended to speed you up.

4:44 pm

Atalante

everything over here has long and complicated names unrelated to their purpose

4:44 pm

Scrabbler

Time to make salads for the bunnies. Callie is flinging her tin plate around as a means of communicating her desire.

4:45 pm

inge

but "zimmer" means room in German, what does that have to do witha waling aid?

4:45 pm

Krista

Awwww

4:45 pm

jillibus

the letters in this grid are all in the wrong place

4:45 pm

Krista

I think it was the inventor, Inge.

4:45 pm

Haz1558

It's pronounced with a soft z rather than the ts sound of zimmer in German.

4:45 pm

Atalante

not everything relates imediately to German :P

4:45 pm

inge

AAAH

4:46 pm

Krista

you ootch around the room in it :)

4:46 pm

Scrabbler

Inge, I know a Dr Fenstermacher.

4:46 pm

Atalante

Noun 1. Zimmer frameZimmer frame - a light enclosing framework (trade name Zimmer) with rubber castors or wheels and handles; helps invalids or the handicapped or the aged to walk

4:46 pm

Krista

window maker

4:46 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, cool name, but my friend calls him Burgermeister instead.

4:46 pm

Atalante

Zimmer Frame - from Zimmer Holdings, a major manufacturer of such devices and joint replacement parts.

4:46 pm

Haz1558

I heard of one lady who refused to use the lift in her care home and who was found crawling up the stairs, zimer frame on back, tortoise like.

4:47 pm

Krista

I love the name Schwartzkopf..always makes me think of bad skin.

4:47 pm

Atalante

Zimmer was founded in 1927 by Justin O. Zimmer

4:47 pm

Atalante

there :)

4:47 pm

Krista

Burgermeister Meisterburger!

4:47 pm

Atalante

I knew a Dr Axel Hungelbuehler

4:47 pm

Haz1558

A new fact learned. Let's hope it comes up in conversation.

4:48 pm

Krista

On here, it probably will come up again, Haz! Lol!

4:48 pm

Atalante

probably!

4:48 pm

inge

Sorry folks, Nika wanted to go out.

4:48 pm

Scrabbler

We have an orthopedist here named Dr Bone.

4:48 pm

Atalante

all facts turn up in babble sooner or later

4:48 pm

AsGreen

feeling dumb, but can I get a clue for the al4,4?

4:48 pm

Scrabbler

OK, salads must be made.

4:49 pm

Atalante

the head of the UK Fisheries Association is Dr Herring

4:49 pm

AsGreen

never mind - duh

4:49 pm

Krista

Haz..just read what you wrote about that woman..not sure whether to laugh or cry!

4:49 pm

Haz1558

al4/4 - one letter short of al5/12, the noise that gets you up in the morning.

4:49 pm

phandmd

add what sounds like r

4:49 pm

Krista

We have an orthodontist named Dr. Toothman. Rumor has it he changed his name to that, though.

4:49 pm

Haz1558

Her children decided to see the funny side of it and laugh.

4:49 pm

jillibus

I'm nervous about our power - there have been little flickers. It's still snowing -- my birdbath has a tall mushroom cap on it

4:49 pm

inge

The German trextbook I used had a vendor lady called Hunnenmörder

4:50 pm

Atalante

this is a very random question - does anyone know if there's a word for fear of not having access to books?

4:50 pm

jillibus

Nobody's paying any attention, but if I disappear without warning you'll know the power is out

4:51 pm

Atalante

ok jilli! roger that!

4:51 pm

PastorJ

notabookinsightophobia?

4:51 pm

Haz1558

I was paying attention, jillibus, just thinking that you're probably well versed in how to cope.

4:51 pm

raelite

hello hello

4:51 pm

Krista

Isn't that funny. I can remember every character in our textbooks. Alois Reiter, Marianne Muller...What does hunnenmorder translate too?

4:51 pm

Haz1558

Hello raelite.

4:52 pm

jillibus

hi raelite!!! Are you enjoying our weather?

4:52 pm

Krista

Was just about to ask you...really...does your power go out a lot in bad weather?

4:52 pm

raelite

haz, I have a favour to ask of you

4:52 pm

inge

murderer of huns

4:52 pm

Krista

Wow!

4:52 pm

raelite

oh the weather....it's nasty

4:52 pm

raelite

but just rain

4:52 pm

Haz1558

Okay, you want me to look after a good looking actor?

4:52 pm

jillibus

Not a lot, Krista -- but this is VERY bad weather -- tons of HEAVY snow to break branches and such

4:52 pm

Atalante

The power is out in Astoria, Oregon, and has been for a good few hours already

4:53 pm

raelite

may i please use spangle in one of my stories?

4:53 pm

Haz1558

Absolutely!

4:53 pm

raelite

oh thank you!

4:53 pm

Atalante

Hobbit won't feel slighted that you don't want her

4:53 pm

raelite

oh I will if you allow me to

4:53 pm

jillibus

just rain in Victoria raelite??? Not here yet -- waiting hopefully!

4:54 pm

raelite

the new chapter has some interesting twists

4:54 pm

Haz1558

Who's smug now?

4:54 pm

Atalante

*giggles* of course you can if you want

4:54 pm

Krista

Goodness, Jilli. I am really wanting some snow (we had it in the forecast, but just got sleet), but not like that.

4:54 pm

raelite

well i live closer to Sidney, Jilli, so we're right by the water...it's been raining for hours

4:54 pm

inge

well, I better fix something for supper to go along with the leftover fourbean salad . BBL

4:54 pm

Atalante

spaniels are always smug

4:54 pm

Krista

Enjoy your dinner, Inge.

4:54 pm

Haz1558

That would be fun, raelite, I'd be delighted to have Spangle immortalised.

4:55 pm

Haz1558

Bye inge.

4:55 pm

raelite

lol...spangle is going to be a guide of sorts, and hobbit will be an inn keeper

4:55 pm

jillibus

well, what a difference a bay makes, rae!

4:55 pm

jillibus

bye inge

4:56 pm

raelite

lol, too true, jilli...my parents are in a much worse situation though

4:56 pm

Atalante

if I ever get a spare moment - ha ha - if you'd ever like a picture of Spangle, I'd love to do one, Haz

4:56 pm

Haz1558

She's a very purposeful walker, so that will suit her. Her map-reading needs work, though.

4:56 pm

raelite

they went north to ladysmith for my mother's birsthday and wound up getting stuck in the snow

4:56 pm

Haz1558

That would be great, Atalante!

4:56 pm

Atalante

and Hobbit loves drinking. Though usually only water LOL

4:56 pm

raelite

they had to abandon the car at the safeway

4:57 pm

Haz1558

Spangle likes snow.

4:57 pm

saphyre

hi everyone

4:57 pm

Haz1558

Did Spangle pass her driving test first time?

4:57 pm

Haz1558

Hello saphyre.

4:57 pm

Atalante

I love drawing spaniels, but I can never bring myself to try and draw Hobbit. So I borrow other people's

4:58 pm

Krista

why is that, Ata?

4:58 pm

Atalante

I don't know ... I just dont think I could ever portray everything I wanted for her

4:59 pm

Haz1558

I think I know what you mean. There are so many facets to a character that you know well that you couldn't capture them all in one portrait?

4:59 pm

Atalante

I'll draw her in many years time. With other people's dogs its easier, because you can only draw what you see and hope its right

5:00 pm

carra

my kittys in the snow http://tinyurl.com/2cmnvr

5:00 pm

raelite

I have my dog in my icon now...his name is Kash

5:00 pm

Atalante

yes - I'd want to draw her happy, and doleful, and sitting up and wiggling all in one picture, and then be horrified if even 1 hair wasn't as I wanted it

5:00 pm

carra

http://tinyurl.com/295bo2

5:00 pm

Haz1558

If you draw mostly from photographs, I suppose you'll be using the ones that people have chosen as being representative of their pet.

5:01 pm

Atalante

gorgeous babes, carra!

5:01 pm

Krista

Yes, that makes sense. I can see what you mean.

5:02 pm

Atalante

yes - I do find it hard drawing animals I don't know though. I always want to have an idea of *them*. Photos don't do that perfectly. Drawing unknown animals scares me totally!

5:02 pm

carra

thanks atalante

5:03 pm

saphyre

I have Roxie and her pups in my icon - the puppies are 5 days old now

5:03 pm

Atalante

raelite

oh dear, it has begun to snow

5:04 pm

Angelsong

hey everyone...I need your input. Some of you may recall when I had Babble Icons and Birthday calendars up. I had to discontinue them because the calendars I was using for them stopped being free. Now, I may have found a free place to have the calendars again. is there any interest for me to bring them back?

5:05 pm

saphyre

I think the birthday idea is good Angel

5:06 pm

Haz1558

Probably the babble icons would be useful, as people are always looking for where the icon list is kept.

5:06 pm

Krista

That's lovely, Ata! Angelsong, I like the ideas.

5:07 pm

Angelsong

the way it will work is that once I've set up the calendars, I will put a link up on BabAnon for players to access them. it would not be on the reosurce guide.

5:08 pm

saphyre

sounds good Angelsong and thank you for taking the time to do that for all of us

5:08 pm

joanne0334

hi all co 9 and 10 please

5:08 pm

Angelsong

ok, then, I will start working on them and will have them up as soon as I can.

5:10 pm

Angelsong

it may take a bit of time to set them up; it's labor-intensive to begin with, and I have less time than I used to have.

5:10 pm

Krista

Did you get any snow there today, Saphyre? We were supposed to, but didn't.

5:10 pm

saphyre

it is raining with a bit of ice mixed in Krista

5:11 pm

I'd love to see pix of your bunnies, Scrabbler.

5:31 pm

Scrabbler

Bunny Sebastian will stand up and take a snack (CritterBerries) from my hand. Then he runs away with it to hide and eat it.

5:31 pm

Scrabbler

Krista, I don't know how to do that as I am just figuring out the digital camera stuff.

5:31 pm

Krista

You might change your mind and want it back (or he doesn't want to share)!

5:32 pm

Krista

And you have nothing else to do, I know, Scrab. It's ok.

5:33 pm

Scrabbler

He wants to enjoy it in private and not have anyone take it away. Bunnies are preyed upon so they have that protective instinct.

5:34 pm

Krista

We finally found cheap Timothy hay for the piggy...(to which I am also allergic, but she needs to eat)..local farmer sells it for 3.00 a bale! What a bargain.

5:34 pm

Scrabbler

5:34 pm

Krista

My first bunny was preyed upon by something in his hutch..that's why I litter trained the second one.

5:34 pm

Krista

Are you standing on your hind legs? :)

5:35 pm

Scrabbler

Great deal, Krista. I order my bunny food, hay/grasses from Oxbow Hay Company.

I love those black puppies, Saphyre. The white ones are cute, too, but there's something really cute about the black ones.

5:43 pm

saphyre

well these 2 look just like my dog so it will probably be one of these that I keep

5:43 pm

jillibus

Krista, I have 2 of them -- Photoshop Starter edition (which doesn't seem to have a Resize) and the Lumix one which came with my camera and does have a Resize but I can't figure out how to acquire the picture

5:43 pm

DR1965

They are adorable

5:43 pm

Uniquity

Glad you got it hawk, i realized my clue was a bit...lazy

5:44 pm

Krista

In regular photoshop, it's under the IMAGE tab, then IMAGE SIZE. It's probably different in yours. Frustrating, I know.

5:44 pm

saphyre

I use paint shop pro - and it is under image there also

5:44 pm

jillibus

Trouble is, I've done it before but have forgotten how -- grrrr

5:45 pm

Krista

I'm checking for you, jilli..they have an online help thingy

5:45 pm

Atalante

That's a good point, and something I need to work on...lowering expectations of self! The world will go on if I don't get 'er all done.

8:50 pm

stidmama

that was my conclusion krista -- time enough to revert to perfectionism later. For now, dirty (two dogs, tow kids, lots of mud and rain) floors and piles of books on every surface is "good enough"

8:51 pm

Minveryork
