message for "too stinkin hot" people: how's this for weather? going home from work last night, my bus driver turned grey, stopped the bus on the verge as we were exiting the off-ramp. What he saw in his rear-view mirror was a megaton 18-wheeler (truck/ pantechnicon/lorry, depending on your location) topple over on its side. Then a second. Then a third. whoosh, horrendous crash, shrieking metal sliding across the highway off the Bay Bridge. Another passenger called up the news on his hand-held whatsit and got the report of 75mph winds gusting to over 100. ... Soaked to the skin when I got home but there seemed to be no damage. Except when I happened to glance out the window: where the day before had stood a gloriously fat-fruited and foliaged fig tree was now stripped to the bare twigs; not a sign in the garden that there had ever been anything living there above grass level. Damn. Once in 12 years we get Weather here. But then it's a doozy.

herin, reports say they were really shook up (the drivers) but no badly hurt. One of them described it in a sailing term I don't remember, the feeling when the sail isn't properly secured and the wind catches it full in the wrong place and tips the boat over -- the wind just caught him broadside coming around the curve. In fact, as with the "big" quake and other local disasters the expected damage and injury never seems to reach expected proportions.

Sweet of you Lady. Since the kids have had Christmas break from school, they dominate the computer mornings. Today I cheated and turned on Saturday morning cartoons....we finally have some great channels that show the old classics, MGM, Popeye (the oldies), Jetsons. The new stuff can't compare.

5:33 am
westford

maybe it will show up the next time I log on
5:33 am

then I am out of ideas, lol. Restart browser, maybe?
5:33 am
sprite

or force refresh
5:33 am
westford

it did say something about refreshing
5:34 am

if you use IE, you could do control F5.
5:34 am
westford

ok I just did that
5:34 am
westford

I'm on Netscape
5:35 am

and still no joy... perhaps shut down the browser and restart it... that's all I can think of.
5:35 am

I never use that but it was the one they recommended
5:35 am
westford

well at least I got a picture of KC..for Kitty Cat we couldn't come up with a name for him

West - it was me. I? No, me. We had Weather in San Francisco. Something that doesn't happen often. Central feature: winds at 75mph that caught at least three megaton 18-wheelers broadside and tipped them over on their sides on the highway. And our poor fig tree -- the day before a full-foliaged fruitbearer -- yesterday morn, a barebarknaked bunch of sticks. Gone though. The last time this sort of thing happened was 12 years ago.
6:15 am

sorry, was afk without telling, some domestic stress came up and I had to run. Back now, hi all new-incomers.

nobody hurt as far as I know but lots of property damage. Two more storms due (well, rain -- having grown up on the Atlantic Coast, thunderstorms were a matter of course -- this is trivial stuff) but the next ones will be successively weaker. Hawaii is sending them and we're passing them Eastward. Good for the S. California fire danger, though.
6:20 am
jwr

um is that ticklish Inuit canoe
6:20 am
westford

I thought they were nice in Hawaii
6:21 am

6:22 am
westford

they didn't even know about them until they got to the airport
6:22 am

it is no way Fran's fault. Fran's a darling. And in Babble, we blame FMitch. :D

hi scarydeb, sorry, is one of the 10 I am missing still.

6:32 am

sprite, the only thing I see that might have hurt westford's feelings was my crack about Rhode Island -- I should have happyfaced it, I guess. But I can't see anything that westford would say sorry for. I'm going to bury myself in the grid now -- 12 to go.
6:33 am
sprite

go for it, jwr. I don't know, sometimes things come across wrongly on typing. We can't do a thing until she starts talking again.

But what about kids that are truly gifted----kids doing math or reading way beyond their peers?
8:17 am
LoriP

Could be therapeutic for future grids though!
8:18 am
saphyre

When Kim was in elem. school they had a program that the kids attended one day per week - all day
8:19 am
saphyre

hands on gifted class
8:19 am
LoriP

All children have "gifts" some more markedly so than others. They should most definitely be nurtured, but not defined by them.
8:19 am
Scrabbler

The disconnect is a problem though. I have a sweet little boy in my practice, age 5, with Asperger Syndrome--very anxious and with trouble socializing, yet reading at 4th grade level. He started reading at 2 1/2 yrs. He fascinates me yet the school system cannot meet all of his needs.
8:19 am
saphyre

when she got to middle school the classes were seperated - what i didn't quite agree with is that her group got all the top teachers
8:20 am
LoriP

As a parent, I'm as proud as the next guy. Such labels tend to be more for parents, than the kids. With those strengths, are associated weaknesses, some obvious, some not.
8:20 am
Scrabbler

I agree, Lori. Have you read the book, "Multiple Intelligences?"
8:20 am
saphyre

I thought those teachers might be better for children who needed more help
8:21 am
Scrabbler

Schools are the limiting factor in identifying how kids learn best, and their strengths and weaknesses.
8:21 am
LoriP

No I haven't Scrabbler. I will check it out though. Sounds fascinating.

We lost our 17 yr old cat last year
8:37 am
Aloyisius

8:37 am
saphyre

She just wasn't the same after Tiki passed
8:38 am
Aloyisius

When someone dies, their life is not over, is has merely changed!
8:39 am
shorty

8:39 am
Aloyisius

i feel that way too.. the energy changes into other forms
8:40 am
saphyre

nothing like a puppy or kitten to make you feel a little better though
8:40 am
saphyre

we adopted a cat a few years ago and she is my baby
8:40 am
Aloyisius

our neighbor is nagging us to adopt a pup or kitten, and we surely will.. when the time is right.. too much traveling at present
8:41 am
saphyre

she was playing with the puppies with a squeek toy this morning
8:41 am
shorty

I thought for sure my coco would be depressed b/c they always played and she would sit on top of her when its was cold out but I didnt really see a change in her
8:42 am
saphyre

how old is coco
8:42 am
shorty

4
8:42 am
saphyre

puff was only 1 year younger than Tiki - they grew up together - so I guess it was more traumatic for her

If it helps you feel less lonely, mrp, I am not on speaking terms with most of my family of origin (for various reasons) but it's yucky. At least Tom's family tolerates me!

yes dawg! that might just work out well for all of us! they are 300km away!
1:11 pm

Some people think that if they can't pay all of it, then they won't pay any of it, and that's what hits them in the end!

1:12 pm

wow. I have 11 words now! *zipping along*
1:12 pm

I rarely talk to my inlaws. Usually by accident, if i happen to answer the phone, which is a rarity.
1:12 pm
TeaNCrackers

Good, Stiddy. We lost power for about an hour last night. The kiddos had a tough time with it and we woke up to about 6 inches of snow.
Thanks for the crackers - as if I don't have enough. :)

scrab, do they penalise you for not paying it all at once?
1:13 pm
Scrabbler

Slow down, Stid!
1:13 pm

I have a new method LBD. Don't answer the phone. Let it go to the answering machine, and then if it turns out to be someone you want to talk to, pick it up like you had to run in from outside...

1:14 pm
ATTYCJS

Oops. Trial words ended up in the wrong spot! Sorry to hear about your problems, mrp--I firmly believe that one should not tolerate nasty behavior from family. Obviously, there is a way to say things and a way not to, but it is important that people be given the responsibility for their own behavior. We've been using "Parenting Teens With Love & Logic" in our house--and I've found the principles from the book work at the office and with my spouse, as well. Much easier to get along with everyone now, and I'm no longer a doormat.
1:14 pm
mrpresident

dawg, caller id will save me!
1:14 pm
stidmama

but sometimes the calls come from the house (I alwasy pick up for mother's cellphone)...
1:14 pm
lbdawger

i don't have all that "fancy" stuff on the phone. i usually do let the machine catch the calls, except on sunday, when my dad and sisters call. occassionally the MIL will call when we least expect it.

Mrp, "Parenting Teens" is by Jim Fay and Foster Cline. Mr. Fay was a school principal for decades and figured out some useful methods of dealing with kids/teens . Since most people still are kids inside, their approach works pretty well for almost everyone. Your local Borders or other bookstore should have it in stock.

3:48 pm
mrpresident

a couple of other babblers are finding that too peri, it might change later... did it accept the change?
3:49 pm
doxy1lover

I personally do not think children of any age need a cell phone, until they can pay the bill. My personal opinion.
3:49 pm
montreal13

my humble advice crpw: 13 is too young... even if most girls her age have one...
3:49 pm
phandmd

well, I think it depends on the reason you want her to have one. I personally don't think she should have one just to have one but if there is a need then go for it
3:49 pm
doxy1lover

de5/20?
3:49 pm
mrpresident

I believe a cell phone is important if you need to know where they are, depends on the reasons for it

her parents say no, for reason of age, but i am so out of the loop for teenages, just wanted some outside advise
3:50 pm
Niamh

my son is in all sorts of sports and sometimes I wish he had a cell phone so I won't worry as much when he's carpooling
3:50 pm
Haz1558

Hello doxy - the trouble is peer pressure. A 13 year old doesn't NEED a phone, but may feel completely out of it if she doesn't have one. I held out until 2nd daughter was 15 but I'm unusually cruel.
3:50 pm
Niamh

he'll be 13 in August
3:50 pm
doxy1lover

thanks montreal
3:50 pm

We use a pay as you go plan and we pay for the minimum air time for our kids so they can get in touch with us (they are both in High School) oldest has gotten ito texting, she has to pay for that
3:52 pm
Niamh

thanks for both i words!!
3:52 pm
crpw48

well, i cant get her the phone (i think i do want her to have it for safety reasons) but sometimes my influence on my daughter and son-in-law does go a long way, so i needed some input before i say anything
3:52 pm
phandmd

the youngest son wants a phone but we wont give him one; he is only in 7th grade
3:53 pm
Haz1558

Most parents buy phones for safety reasons, most children use them for social reasons.
3:53 pm
Niamh

I think if it's a pay as you go plan then the child can do chores to earn money for minutes
3:53 pm
crpw48

good point haz
3:54 pm
montreal13

right on hazel
3:54 pm
crpw48

pay as you go is a good thing
3:54 pm
Niamh

there are phones that are only capable of calling certain pre-programed numbers... like home, mom, 911
3:54 pm

Nutty, I love those under the bed containers.

rururocks

same first three letters and a different cons. at the end
7:50 pm

You guys are making me envious of beds that dont lay On the floor =P
7:50 pm
moonwoof

Damn my nomadic lifestyle!
7:51 pm
Mom

I don't think I would like a bed that lays on the floor
7:51 pm
moonwoof

Over the years I've found that beds pack easier with out frames...
7:52 pm
Mom

do you move alot, Moonwoof?
7:52 pm
moonwoof

And they're as comfortable... they just dont have cool hidey places for shoe containers.
7:52 pm
moonwoof

About every 2 months or so, mom.
7:53 pm
Mom

wow. I wouldn't like that at all
7:53 pm
moonwoof

Last week we were in MN. Today I'm in balmy AZ

My hubby likes those, too. I hate those. They make me feel like I'm like 3 years old with my feet a-swingin
7:54 pm
hurshy

please need help not getting hopes up
7:54 pm
Mom

Hi Hurshy.
7:54 pm
moonwoof

Sort of, I guess. If touring can count for only going to 6 different states.
7:54 pm
Mom

it is at least something new, Moonwoof
7:55 pm
moonwoof

Ok, Hursy. It'll never work out. Don't get your hopes up.
7:55 pm
moonwoof

Ok, Hursy. It'll never work out. Don't get your hopes up.
7:55 pm
evanonut

six states is like all i've ever been too...and canada
7:55 pm
hurshy

that's what i thought.
7:56 pm
moonwoof

That's true, mom. It's not boring. But I do miss the hidey holes you get in real places to live.
7:57 pm
pam

howdy, all...
7:57 pm
Mom

you don't have a regular place to live? I don't mean to be nosy
7:57 pm
Mom

Hi Pam
7:57 pm
moonwoof

I've been to all the states, except Hawaii, which I plan on fixing next year. But I only work in 7 states.
7:57 pm
moonwoof

7:57 pm
hurshy

hi pam
7:58 pm
pam

hi, moon, mom, hurshy, and all!
7:58 pm
moonwoof

Oh no. I kind of do. In MN. But I'm only there about 5 months out of the year.
7:58 pm
moonwoof

That Should have said "evening"
7:58 pm
Mom

I like Minnesota. I have been there twice.
7:58 pm
hurshy

what is your job?
7:59 pm
moonwoof

Ok, on my nosy side... Why are we telling Hurshy it'll never work?
7:59 pm
moonwoof

I like it, too. When I'm there =)
7:59 pm
moonwoof

I make leather clothing and accessories like hats and purses.
8:00 pm
Mom

that is neat, Moonwoof
8:00 pm
hurshy

because if hurshy gets her hopes up, they will be dashed later, and that would be bad. wow, that's neato moon.
8:00 pm
moonwoof

I have to have some place to keep all the stuff I collect travelling =)
8:00 pm
pam

What wouldn't work, hursh?
8:01 pm
moonwoof

I have had many worse jobs. But as Mom pointed out everything has a down side. Like no cool under bed containers...
8:01 pm
hurshy

well... i picked back up the book "what should i do with my life?" today, cause you know, my job, it's just a job, and the people are nice and all but, it would be cool to do something i cared more about, you know
8:02 pm
ardilla

good morning all
8:02 pm
moonwoof

Hurshy, I have found that my hopes are rarely dashed if I plan in advance that they'll (my plans) go to heck. So good start, girly.
8:02 pm
pam

okay, following you, hursh
8:02 pm
pam

Hi, ardilla
8:02 pm
hurshy

now, the other day i was seeing about jobs and real estate in iowa, on account of how cool the caucuses are
8:02 pm
ardilla

does anyone have clues for ca6 & ca5 pls?
8:02 pm
hurshy

but today i was like, ok, let's be a little more practical
8:03 pm
hurshy

ca6 - related to an element used in some batteries
8:03 pm
pam

I have an acquaintance who lives in Iowa and doesn't recommend it, LOL. (She's originally from NJ)
8:03 pm
hurshy

ca5 - ooo, what a tweet widdle place to go spelunking
8:03 pm
moonwoof

I have friends there, too, and I intentionally go thru it all the time. It Really depends on what part of Iowa, hursh. Otherwise it's Boring.
8:04 pm
hurshy

so i popped on the internet to see if there were any interesting sounding jobs being advertised
8:04 pm
pam

lol on the ca5
8:04 pm
hurshy

i mean being advertised here, in my current state.
8:04 pm
ardilla

tyvm hursh! 4 to go!
8:04 pm
Mom

Hi Ardilla
8:04 pm
moonwoof

Ok. And you found something, I take it?
8:04 pm
pam

oh, gotcha now, Hursh
8:05 pm
ardilla

hi mom
8:05 pm
hurshy

now you see my trouble is that i never do have a good idea of what i want to do, and everything that does sound possibly interesting i would generally have to go back to school for since my degree is so impractical, and i haven't any money for classes so i'd rather see if i could do something nice without that
8:06 pm
hurshy

and, well, there was a job advertised for someone to teach skills to the visually impaired to help them live independently
8:06 pm
pam

can't find the ca6 though I know the battery material...
8:06 pm
hurshy

it's an adj pam
8:06 pm
pam

That sounds interesting, hursh.
8:06 pm
pam

thanks, got the adj!
8:07 pm
hurshy

now i don't have a degree in visual rehabilitation therapy and whatnot that they said their ideal candidate would have, nor do i have any experience in such work
8:07 pm
ardilla

ca + 4th letter + speak into the ***rophone
8:07 pm
Mom

thanks Ardilla
8:07 pm
moonwoof

have you called on it, yet, Hursh?
8:07 pm
hurshy

but i mean, ok, let's say you're blind, it's not just about the practical stuff, right? it's the emotions and the psychology too
8:08 pm
gwenski

Hey all! Anyone like to clue im5 or co5 for me?
8:08 pm
pam

I think life experience has value, too, and that it always pays to apply
8:08 pm
Mom

Hi Gwenski
8:08 pm
hurshy

so, i wrote my cover letter about how i have had to overcome an anxiety disorder to live on MY own and how i could relate, and how i have teaching experience, and how i am a quick learner
8:08 pm
pam

I did 10 years of direct care with non-verbal developmentally disabled adults and I was an english/linguistics major...
8:08 pm
Mom

Sorry, Gwenski, I don't have either
8:09 pm
praise2him

hey there
8:09 pm

sorry, gwen, don't have...

Hi Praise

im5 - insert extra vowel in im4
8:10 pm
hurshy

co5 made a small sound like a dove or a baby
8:10 pm
moonwoof

Evening Gwen and Praise.
8:10 pm
Mom

thanks Hurshy for the co5
8:10 pm
gwenski

Thanks hurshy!
8:10 pm
ardilla

thanks hursh for im5
8:11 pm
moonwoof

I think, hursh, you could save a little waiting by calling, first.
8:11 pm
hurshy

so, well, i mean, it would really rock if i could get the job because other times when i have looked online i never see anything that interesting, and i would love to do something satisfying, you know?
8:11 pm
moonwoof

Then you wouldn't have time to get your hopes up. Although if they're open to it, it Does sound like it has potential.
8:11 pm
pam

that makes good sense, hursh. I am so glad you are applying.
8:11 pm
hurshy

i can't call, moon, it was a craigslist ad, there isn't any phone number listed, i just had to email my resume and cover letter.
8:12 pm
ardilla

clue for um5 pretty pls?
8:12 pm
hurshy

that is the hard thing, not knowing what kind of person will read your cover letter and how best to present your case
8:13 pm
hurshy

and it even pays more than i make now! icing on the cake. that's what makes me so sure i won't even get a response.
8:13 pm
moonwoof

Ah. Well, I'll hope for you, then. But it sounds like it could go either way, pretty easy. What if, for instance, you need to teach them about bathrooms...
8:13 pm
hurshy

it's too good of a thing to happen to me.
8:13 pm
hurshy

i know about bathrooms! i use them every day!
8:14 pm
moonwoof

I wouldnt say that Hursh. I'd dwell on the bathroom angle.
8:14 pm
moonwoof

Right. You do. Ever let your boyfriend come into the bathroom with you?
8:14 pm
moonwoof

Or how are you going to teach a guy where to aim?
8:15 pm
hurshy

i was married for 7 years, so i'm fairly comfortable with that sort of thing, actually, lol
8:15 pm
frantique

sorry i have no idea for the um5 word
8:15 pm
moonwoof

So you have an edge.
8:16 pm
hurshy

but you know, besides the fact that it's Too Good, there is the fact that when i got my current job, i'd sent out, oh maybe 100 resumes, and got... 3 responses total i think?
8:16 pm
moonwoof

um5= an eskimo kayak
8:16 pm
hurshy

so, my general sense about job hunting is, you get way more non-responses than responses.
8:16 pm
moonwoof

Hurshy... It's all how you market yourself. *I* should know.
8:17 pm
hurshy

well i poured my heart into that cover letter - so i hope whoever reads it likes heart.
8:17 pm
hurshy

no, no hoping. expect to hear nothing, that's the ticket.
8:17 pm
praise2him

clue for the ro 7 please?
8:18 pm
hurshy

up on the ro7 reindeer pause, out jumps good old santa claus
8:18 pm
pam

I certainly hope they do, too!!!!!
8:18 pm
ardilla

moonwoof, could you give me the 3rd letter pls?
8:18 pm
moonwoof

I rewrote my brothers resume to give him an idea about what I meant. His most recent experience I put "A personal therapist with an extensive yet limited pharmacutical repitoire." He's a bartender.

8:22 pm

i had to talk to you guys about it because i can't talk to my family about it, because in the (most probable) event that i get no response, then they will be sad for me and that would just make me feel worse
8:22 pm
Mom

I wouldn't know, Ardilla, it has been so long since I had fireworks
8:22 pm
Mom

lol
8:22 pm
moonwoof

Heck even without fireworks I just get excited that I actually Finished something without getting distracted lol
8:22 pm

*blush* i have never gotten excited by fireworks. i think i'm too practical.
8:23 pm

that makes sense, hursh. Glad we can listen.

i think my resume is ok in terms of that sort of thing, bc i had a job placement agency person help me rework it during my last job search, this past spring.
8:25 pm
pam

and, you can add to that focus that YOU are ok, hursh.
8:25 pm
moonwoof

Actually, Hurshy, if that's the case, then congrats. I know a lot of people who can't even be kinda content. Their lives are sucking. So good job, there.
8:25 pm
hurshy

but thanks for the offer moon :) i'm not actively seeking another job exactly, i just saw this one and it appealed.
8:25 pm

I mostly meant if you needed a chuckle hurshy =P

oh of course, how thick of me!

ElDubUC

thanks, must be out of it

Not the faintest idea what you lot are talking about re the sport. LOL
10:22 pm

I know, but he's irritated
10:23 pm
mymuseisme

Jac I would if I was watching it but I'm not, just get the audio version
10:23 pm
JBsAnno

lol, muse, I hope he's editing it!
10:24 pm
JBsAnno

Jac, American football, it's the playoffs to get to the Superbowl.
10:24 pm
Jacula

Well, I have Sky so could watch it but won't as it doesn't interest me.
10:24 pm
Jacula

Thanks for telling me what you're talking about though.
10:26 pm
JBsAnno

It's getting exciting, though, Jac, because the home team is leading by one point, and the away team has to score on this possesion
10:27 pm
JBsAnno

It could go either way at this point!
10:27 pm
Minveryork

I know what they are talking about,but really do not know what they're talking about. Really do not know anything about football&don't care to know about it.
10:27 pm
Jacula

Well, good. I'll attend to my laundry for a while and come back to see if clues are needed soon. *grins*

10:28 pm
Minveryork

Was watching Dirty Dancing,but it's almost over now
10:28 pm
JBsAnno

Oh, no offense at all, Jac! I like soccer too, but this is a different dynamic
10:28 pm
Jacula

Dirty Dancing 2 was not so good, Min.
10:29 pm
Minveryork

I don't think I saw Dirty Dancing 2.I'm not really into sequels. Assume they won't be as good as first movie.
10:30 pm
Jacula

Can't do anything with laundry yet; washing machine is still going into orbit on final spin cycle...
10:30 pm
Jacula

Min - Don't bother, it wasn't.
10:30 pm
Minveryork

I need to do laundry too, but will wait until tomorrow
10:31 pm
JBsAnno

Minver, I could teach you football in 22 words:
a team has 4 tries to move the ball 10 yards. If they succeed, they get another 4 tries, until they score. That's what the whole game hangs on.
10:31 pm
Jacula

I have all the ironing from washing of Christmas period (just before) and after to do. That will take up about 6 hours of later. I will commandeer the TV and watch all the stuff I've recorded on SKY+ recently.
10:32 pm
Jacula

JBs - Do you have an offside rule in American football?
10:32 pm
ardilla

hi again, everyone
10:32 pm
moonwoof

I'll go ahead and add 3 more words to football.
Too Much Padding
10:32 pm
Minveryork

Hello ardilla! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
10:32 pm
JBsAnno

Jac, I would just dampen it all, and toss it in the dryer for a few minutes, then hang it a little damp. I haven't ironed for 2 years!
10:32 pm
ardilla

does anyone need any clues?
10:32 pm
mymuseisme

hi ardilla
10:32 pm
mymuseisme

yes
10:33 pm
moonwoof

Wb Ardilla And yes we have offsides
10:33 pm
Minveryork

I'm here to clue as well, but nobody seems to need'em
10:33 pm
ardilla

hi min; i was on earlier and finally finished about 90 mins ago
10:33 pm
moonwoof

That's because you did such a good job earlier Minver =)
10:34 pm
JBsAnno

Yes, Jac, but it applies to jumping over the line of scrimmage before the ball is snapped rather than the runner getting the ball past the defenders
10:34 pm
ardilla

what do you need, mymuse?
10:34 pm
Minveryork

Congratulations ardilla on finishing earlyGood for you
10:34 pm
Jacula

JBs - that doesn't do it for me, I'm afraid (the non-ironing thing).
10:34 pm
ardilla

tyvm, min
10:34 pm
Jacula

Wish it did! I hate ironing!
10:34 pm
mymuseisme

lol, ardilla I was saying yes to the offside rules
10:34 pm
JBsAnno

No dryer?
10:35 pm
Jacula

JBs - this is ours in UK (offside rule) - It is not an offence in itself to be in an offside position.

A player is in an offside position if:

* he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent

A player is not in an offside position if:

* he is in his own half of the field of play
* he is level with the second last opponent
* he is level with the last two opponents

Commiting an Offside Offence
A player in an offside position is only penalised if, at the moment the ball touches or is played by one of his team, he is, in the opinion of the referee, involved in active play by:

* interfering with play
* interfering with an opponent
* gaining an advantage by being in that position

No Offence
There is no offside offence if a player receives the ball directly from:

* a goal kick
* a throw-in
* a corner kick
10:35 pm
moonwoof

After they added "butt pads" to the safety equipment list, I quit paying attention to football.
10:35 pm
Jacula

JBs - yes, I have a dryer.
10:35 pm
Minveryork

I hate ironing as well Jacula. That is why I don't do it!
10:35 pm
JBsAnno

I think I need to go to the list to finish quickly, I still have a few more things to do, and it's almost midnight!
10:35 pm
Jacula

Lol, Moonwoof!
10:36 pm
moonwoof

I agree with the damp hanging method of ironing.
10:36 pm
JBsAnno

moon, lol, I thought butt pads were for curvier jeans!
10:36 pm
Jacula

Min - I have to because I hate going out looking 'unpressed' and don't want my family to do that either.
10:36 pm
mymuseisme

lol moon, my hubby says no way
10:36 pm

10:36 pm
mymuseisme

uh oh, Jaguars won
10:37 pm
Minveryork

Hey,I can give them some padding off my big old butt
10:37 pm
Jacula

Anyway, all that damp hanging stuff only works if you have the room to do it in.
10:37 pm
mymuseisme

donna, it gives first 2 letters and point value of word
10:37 pm
moonwoof

Seriously, I used to be Really into football. And I could tell you which player just tackled who, by seeing their butt. But no, now they have butt pads to "protect" their tailbones...
10:37 pm
Jacula

Dryer's beeped me. BBS.
10:37 pm
moonwoof

I say they're trying to impede my view.
10:37 pm
Minveryork

Hi donnana! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
10:38 pm

So I've boycotted football until they get rid of the diapers.

JBsAnno

moon, if it actually did fall off, would you be able to recognize it? <sweet innocent grin>
10:45 pm

The only team with a worse track record is the Vikings so *I* should know. It pays to keep track of the "competition".
10:46 pm
moonwoof

No, now that you mention it. I havent had one in quite some time.
10:46 pm
JBsAnno

Thanks, muse, sigh. Oh well, maybe the Eagles will make it next year.
10:46 pm
JBsAnno

I'm happy to share, moon! (hmm, inadverdent pun, sorry!)
10:46 pm

I wanted one for Xmas, but Santa failed me again. That's why I watched Other people... To see if they had it.
10:47 pm
Minveryork

moonwoof, where in Minnesota do you live? I used to live there myself. I lived in Walker Minnesota.Do you know where that is?Haven't been back there in years

10:48 pm
mymuseisme

er uhm you wanted a butt for Xmas?
10:48 pm
moonwoof

Walker sounds familiar... but I'm not sure if I remember right where that is. I live all over the state, really. Bloomington Stillwater South Saint Paul and Duluth depending on the month.
10:48 pm
moonwoof

Yup. I wanted a butt. Preferably my butt, but I would have settled for JLo's...
10:48 pm
JBsAnno

*whispers* sounded like that to me, too, muse!

10:59 pm

the 2nd co4.8 is a hairdo
10:59 pm

um 5/16 is um plus someone who does not remember anything is an amnes*** JillF.
10:59 pm

11:00 pm

JBsAnno

And off to bed! Good night, all, thanks again, and see you all on the chog (Krista's word) soon! *poof*

da4/8 is a very silly word! (That's a clue, btw.)
11:05 pm
JillF

brendi, it means dumb
11:05 pm
moonwoof

It means silly =P
11:05 pm
moonwoof

It's also part of a punk bands name.
11:06 pm
JillF

i feel this way playing this game sometimes...sounds like something you would float on but with a d instead of an r
11:07 pm
Jacula

Here in UK dumb used to mean someone who could not speak, not someone who was silly or da4.8. However, with the US influence over the years it also has that meaning here as well as the former one.
11:07 pm
Jacula

da4/8 (silly) adds a bit to the other end of a boat (not the fore)
11:07 pm
moonwoof

Really? I've never heard that words used to mean dumb... only silly. Dern word screweruppers.
11:08 pm

da 4/8 rhymes with what Huck Finn used to travel on
11:09 pm

11:13 pm

de5/20 is the type of coffee that won't keep you awake.

11:13 pm

Rlee, dont even worry about it. We ALL typo... just wait and see how many people type "firewords"
11:31 pm

moon - firewords is a deliberate mistake.

11:32 pm

hehe
11:32 pm
moonwoof

Unless that's a new word this year?
11:32 pm
Minveryork

Thought people did that on purpose! The D isn't next to the K on the keyboard. I think "firewords" should be accepted in Babble now since so many use it here.
11:33 pm
Jacula

Hey you 'oldies' do you think the 'newbies' have got our gist now? *grins*
11:34 pm
moonwoof

People do do it on purpose. If I had been typing properly, that sentence would have had one period and the next sentence would have "on purpose" on the end of it. =P
11:34 pm
Jacula

Oh, and jilli, where was my Christmas card?? I hope I'm getting a snailmail letter from you!
11:34 pm

I still consider myself to be a newbie since I'm not an expert at this yet. Plus I came here only 2 years ago.

moon - pleae don't call a full stop a period when I'm here. A period here in UK is either a unit of time or a woman's monthly 'visitor'.
11:36 pm
Minveryork

Hello GreyWoulf! How are you? Welcome to the grid!
11:36 pm
Jacula

Hi Wolfie!
11:36 pm
jillibus

The D and the K, if you've taken a typing course, are used by the same finger on the right or left hand, so are easy to interchange mistakenly, and that's what happened the first time, I understand. Then firewords seemed wonderfully appropriate so it stuck
11:36 pm
GreyWoulf

*drags moonwoof back into the light*

Don't let anyone make you doubt yourself, moon -- we love everyone who chooses to babble no matter how recent they are to join the family
11:37 pm
