Well, I have to say, I'm not sure it was cynicism that did that for me, Saddy. I think it was their own impression that they were being witty that did it.

And some translating today, in the afternoon.
And... we managed to make a deal with our longstanding car supplier. We have a car now and we can pay it off with 100 euro a month. He is a sweetheart.

2:51 am

2:51 am
sprite
I am dying to learn what this game is! Especially if it is played with card decks... and if it is FUN and humour.
2:52 am
sprite

2:52 am

2:53 am
sprite
thnx Liz! Now that I am translating, I will ask you guys EVERYTHING :)
2:53 am
moonwoof
Even My hubby likes this one, Sprite. And he's picky.
2:53 am
Atalante
are the kids good at cheating / being mean (in fun?)
2:54 am
moonwoof
It's NOT cheeating. It says so in the rules.
2:54 am
sprite
awwwwwwwwww I want this game for myself tooooo! And it is BIG. I mean, lots of extensions!
2:54 am
sprite
Ata, definitely. They like nothing better.
2:55 am
moonwoof
Cheating implies, it's against the rules. But the card Says "Cheat". So you have to do it lol
2:55 am
Lizsark
Ask away Sprite lol
2:55 am
Lizsark
I saw on your website that you had started translating.
2:55 am
sprite

2:55 am
moonwoof
I meant it when I said it's like crack, Sprite...
2:55 am
Atalante
and if you can get away with things that are against the rules and no-one notices ... well .....
2:56 am
moonwoof
Sure. They hubby may not like people but he likes munchkin. Gotta watch out for him, tho. He's shifty.
2:56 am
sprite

2:57 am
sprite
ah, perhaps hubby will like my hubby then.
2:57 am
sprite
Ata, that is not cheating, that is smart ;)
2:57 am
moonwoof
I won't really care, Sprite. He can deal with it, for a while, if it's for me. He's good that way =)

2:58 am
sprite

3:04 am
sprite
bye Liz, have a good one!
3:04 am
moonwoof
Sprite? Do I need to hunt down mamar? I can't tell... Everything Auf deutch sounds like swearing.
3:04 am
sprite
no bowing allowed. Just making fun allowed ;)
3:04 am
Marmar
Bye Liz and Oscar.
3:04 am
sprite
lol woof... I think you might. She called you a sweetheart.
3:05 am
moonwoof
Thank Sprite, marmar. I dont care what she says, anymore. She's a big liar. It was all Her fault.
3:05 am
Marmar
Moon, that's funny. That's what I used to think before I learned it!
3:05 am
moonwoof
Oh well that Tears it.
3:05 am
sprite
german can be very beautiful, when not spoken harshly.
3:06 am
sprite
aw, I have a terrible joke about harsh german...
3:06 am
Marmar
Dutch too. My husband can't listen to it but I love it.
3:06 am
sprite
How do (harshly speaking) Germans eat mossles?
3:06 am
moonwoof
I knew, actually, Marmar and Sprite. I was kidding actually. I can understand it fine, just like Spanish. I just dont remember how to speak it very well.
3:07 am
moonwoof
When is German not harsh??
3:07 am
sprite
oh Dutch can sounds harsh too, yes!
3:07 am
sprite
they knock on them and yell: Sofort aufmachen!!!
3:07 am
moonwoof
Honestly, there's not a whole lot more satisfying than swearing auf deutch.
3:08 am
sprite
woof, often. It can even be very poetic.
3:08 am
Marmar
Very good Sprite. I'll send that to my husband at work and give him a laugh!
3:08 am
moonwoof
You're welcome, marmar. But I'm really serious. She picked you.
3:08 am
Marmar
Just ask Faust.
3:09 am
sprite
and woof agreed on you. So I will take only half of the blame.
3:09 am
moonwoof
Dutch I dont know much of. "sofort aufmachen" = ?
3:09 am
sprite
open immediately, woof
3:09 am
Marmar
I love Dutch, as I listen, there will be long moments of incomprehensible gibberish (to my ears), then a whole sentence that sounds like German, then it switches to perfect English before jumping back to gibberish...I love it.
3:09 am
moonwoof
I just typed an email and put in some money. YOU picked her =P
3:10 am
moonwoof
Nice. ty, Sprite.
3:10 am
sprite
hehehehe... don't let her fool you, Marmar. It was team work. I discovered that woof is a perfect team mate. And that is a compliment I don't give often.
3:10 am
moonwoof
I was pretty sure I had the aufmachen, but the sofort was beyond my german.
3:11 am
sprite
I can only marvel at the extended knowledge of language most babblers have.
3:12 am
Marmar
Well, you're both wonderful. Schmoozfest fertig?
3:12 am
herinfernallady
I speak one language badly
3:12 am
sprite
lol, you got me there. Schmoozfest is beyond me... something cuddly?
3:12 am
moonwoof
Schmoozfest LOL I love that word. It's right up there with offengesacht
3:13 am
Marmar
Lady, I bet you know volumes about root words, language families etc...
3:13 am
herinfernallady
umm not really. I was taught by my strict English parents
3:14 am
Marmar
I made that up...we do that all day long here with German and English. Probably not good for the kids to learn like that...
3:14 am
sprite
lady, with you I am certain you know a lot more than you realise.
3:14 am
Marmar
oh, yes, exactly: cuddle fest
3:14 am
bfsog

3:14 am

3:15 am
moonwoof
I wish I could still speak one of the two languages... I've even tried taking the classes. I just cant make my brain do it on command... If I get upset tho it comes out Really randomly.
3:16 am
moonwoof
That's not a word? I'm sure Schmoozfest is a word. *I* have used it before...
3:16 am
sprite
you will have to spend more time in holland then, woof. It will work better than classes :D
*looks perfectly innocent*
3:17 am
moonwoof
There's not a whole lot of things more funny that yelling at a bunch if mexicans in spanish and then realizing that you have No idea what you just said to them.
3:17 am

I liked the one (very short-lived series) with the collected group of individuals who were trying to figure out and stop this weird plague like organism... the agency was super hush hush.... Brent Spiner (Data from NextGen) played the semi-mad scientist, Peter Dinkler played the computer whiz with a wicked way with the ladies...

I have sky + which will record entire series it holds 90 hours which is really good, we then have a recordable dvd to be able to record the programmes we have saved if we want to keep them or play then on the computers :-)
4:10 am

well, at least you wont have to get them from Amazon.
4:10 am

snap katie for Sky+ doesn't it make a huge difference to the way you watch tv
4:11 am

that would be nice, katie. But they've only come out with thats stuff recently. I've been travelling for 17 years, now.
4:12 am
KatieMcG
Too true pink, I now never watch 'live' tv. I record it and start watching 15 mins later for an hour programme and that means I never have to watch adverts :-)
4:13 am
moonwoof
I've just gotten used to not watching TV. But I Do have to say that I Love the guy who came up with Law and Order and CSI. A whole episode in one hour. And if you miss the next, you're not out of the loop. Hats off to him.
4:13 am

OH Joel Silver?

KatieMcG
It also means I can watch pap like the x factor and american idol without inflicting it on hubby2b or having to stay in on a saturday or friday
4:14 am
KatieMcG
Moon there are quite a few good american series like that. Bones, Cold Case and Without Trace are similar in that there are only a few episodes ever which are follow ons from previous. Other than that you can dip in and out.
4:14 am
moonwoof
There are now. But I dont think there would be, w.o. Law + Order
4:15 am

I want to sit among them for a snuggle
4:37 am
metaleather
good luck! although they're very affectionate cats, they're not cuddly
4:37 am
metaleather
don't like to be held at all but want attention and petting
4:38 am
metaleather
they will push and shove to get their share of desk space, or bed space, but don't try to hold one on your lap
4:38 am
herinfernallady
Well i wouldn't pick them up but sit with them.
4:39 am
metaleather
you're more than welcome to do it herin, any time
4:39 am
metaleather
and you'll have great luck getting them to gather around if you're eating and look likely to share
4:40 am
metaleather
little piglets think they have to be offered whatever we (esp. me) are having, even if all they do is make the ick face (you know, the Elvis sneer) and walk away
4:40 am

they still want to be offered

I love my kittie so much. She has the belly of Snooch from twolumps

Hi Sprite
4:50 am
sprite
was a pretty intense session at the therapist... am still a little shaky
4:50 am
herinfernallady
OH HUGS Sprite my dear
4:51 am
metaleather
*brings spritey a cup of tea and a teacake
4:52 am
sprite
did I tell I got assaulted on dec 31? A group of teenagers who have been pestering us for years now, was throwing firework at our windows. I went to them and asked they to stop it, because the windows might crack. They did not stop, but threw firework on me. Heavy firework.
4:53 am
herinfernallady
OH SPRITE are you ok
4:53 am
metaleather
ohhhh sprite!
4:53 am
sprite
yeah, miracle of miracles, I did not get hurt. But I was totally freaked out, and I could not back off, did not want them to drive me back into the house. I tried to talk to them, they only jeered.
4:54 am
sprite
and then I took my telephone and started to call the police, and then they went away.
4:54 am
herinfernallady
Wish i could stick that cracker somewhere unplesant
4:54 am
sprite
Police promised to come, but did not. Called again, same lack of result. Hubby went to the police office, still no joy. And they are still throwing fireworks at our windows every now and then.
4:55 am
herinfernallady
Sigh.
4:55 am
Marmar
Sprite, do you know these kids? Any chance of getting video or photo of them doing it?
4:56 am
sprite
so I have been fighting them and the police (for not protecting us). My therapist just made me realise I have been letting the fear win. I am all fight and feeling powerless. While I should approach the whole situation from "How can I make myself feel more safe." She is totally right.
4:56 am
sprite
I even know where they live, Marmar. But the police does nothing. Unless I get seriously hurt, of course. But I don't want to wait for that to happen.
4:58 am
herinfernallady
Sprite that is really crappy. I would suggest getting evidence like photos and press charges there should be something they can do to help
4:58 am
icepyro
the police have no legal obligation to protect anyone... several cases unfortunately ruled that way
4:58 am
icepyro
er.. well in the US...
4:59 am
metaleather
too true ice
4:59 am
sprite
this is the netherlands, though, icepyro
4:59 am
BabbleRabble
oh is that right?
5:00 am
icepyro
Yeah I dunno how it is there... =\ I am sorry to hear that this is happening to you tho
5:00 am
sprite
well, whatever. Therapist just made me realise I cannot change those %$#&#^ boys. And I cannot force the police to do what they should. And there is not way to predict if even police visits or fi5 would change their behaviour. All I can change is how I handle this.
5:00 am
herinfernallady
Just make you safe sprite
5:00 am
metaleather
the police, and other security professionals do what they can within their institution or departmental guidelines but all too often, the system is geared to protect the wrongdoer after the fact and not the innocent before the fact
5:02 am
BabbleRabble
if a police officer knowing allows a crime to be committed, that officer is guilty of facilitating a crime, which itself is a crime
5:02 am
sprite
and in stead of being all "I WILL make them pay" and "I HAVE to draw a li4 here" I am now trying to think: "What do I need to feel more safe? What can I change so they don't see me as a rewarding victim? What kind of help can I enlist if something like this happens again?"
And even though I find it hard to turn around inside, I can feel this is the better approach.
5:03 am
herinfernallady
Thats the way to do it
5:03 am
metaleather
very true BR, but many times they can't act until it's too late for the victim to be safe
5:03 am
metaleather
yes sprite, take them out of your equation
5:03 am
metaleather
you can't change what happened or how things developed afterward... but you can change how you REact
5:04 am
icepyro
too true bab, but if a police person allows a person to get away with one thing and that leads to another then they are not guilty of anything regarding the 'another' part
5:04 am
sprite
if I press charges, the worst that will happen is a slap on their wrists (read: police visiting their parents and perhaps, if at all, a fi4.) Because I was not hurt.
5:04 am
herinfernallady
Dont get made get even. make yourself not a victim
5:05 am
sprite
so... I have to realise that fighting them with all claws out is not going to make me feel any better. And letting go of my need for revenge is not easy, lol.
5:05 am
herinfernallady
Sometimes some parents are right fck wits
5:05 am
icepyro
ie. if a policeperson lets a dui driver go and that driver causes an accident, the police have no legal responsibility
5:05 am
sprite
and I have little hope that the parents will even care... those kids terrorise the streets here so often, I have no illusion the parents either care or have any hold over them.
5:06 am
BabbleRabble
that simply is not true
5:06 am
sprite
what I said, Rabble?
5:06 am
icepyro
fighting teens only encourages them. if you do not appear to be bothered then they get bored wuickly usually
5:06 am
herinfernallady
Sprite can you find out if they are bothering others? if so are others willing to pitch in
5:07 am
BabbleRabble
so you going to sell out to the teens?
5:08 am
metaleather
speaking of a more pleasant subject... eye candy.... I'll be only half here... time to watch Angel on TV
5:08 am

Metal Enjoy for me
5:08 am
metaleather
will do herin
5:08 am
metaleather
wish I could send it to you
5:09 am
BabbleRabble
an officer that knowing allows an intoxicated driver to drive is most certainly subject to civil if not criminal sanctions
5:09 am
sprite
oh lol metaMom, I wanna join! Just watched the first episodes of Angel last week. Was only a little confused, since I had just finished buffy and now had to reset all emotions surrounding spike again ;)
5:09 am

you could, meta, but it is a lot of work ;)
5:09 am

5:11 am
herinfernallady
I need Angel to tie in buffy
5:11 am
sprite
usenet has usually some angel dvds uploaded
5:11 am
metaleather
I always liked Spike more than Angel
5:12 am
sprite
yeah, but in buffy he becomes one of the good guys, and in angel he is all bad again, lol. That is kinda confusing. I have to remember it is a spin-off, not a sequel.
5:12 am
metaleather
am a sucker for the bad boy and Angel , for the most part, was too good,
5:12 am
sprite
Spike is cooooool.
5:12 am
herinfernallady
oh drool
5:12 am
metaleather
but Spike... even when he was good he did it with a "bad" attitude
5:12 am
herinfernallady
But then we had fat Angel
5:12 am
sprite
oh, I agree, metaMom. Angel isn't as much fun as Spike.
5:13 am
sprite
exactly! He is bad, even when good. Lovely.
5:13 am

fat Angel?

sorry Scrabbler, bf called on phone to let me know he was on his way home from work
6:05 am
Eva
Good morning everyone. I haev a very ignorant nature question sparked by last night's winds: what do the birds do when the winds are like that? How do they not just get swept away?
6:05 am
LoriP
G'd morning Eva.
6:06 am
metaleather
hi Eva
6:07 am
metaleather
is that Merp?
6:07 am
Eva
yes indeed it is
6:08 am
metaleather
I thought I recognized that pretty kitty
6:09 am
Eva
metal that is such a wonderful picture! On ehuge tuxedo catmass. How many of them have you kept?
6:09 am
metaleather
reminds me a great deal of my Myth
6:09 am
metaleather
ty, we have them all
6:09 am
metaleather
Mama and all 5 babies
6:09 am
metaleather
four of the crew are here in the radio/computer room with me now
6:10 am
Eva
Wow! I love how they are all variations on a theme.
6:10 am
Scrabbler
I thought about the wind's effects on animals too! Those nests up in trees must get damaged or tossed.
6:10 am
metaleather
yes, with the slight off center variation of Rumor since she's tabby/patch instead of black and white
6:11 am
metaleather
good point Scrabbler... their homes get destroyed just like ours do
6:12 am
Eva
As much as I believe in spaying, I do sometimes wish, as he gets older, that we have some little Merplets.
6:12 am
Eva
also wish I could type
6:13 am
metaleather
nods, when we got our previous cat Rock... he was already neutered and that's fine... but when he was so ill and after he was gone, I'd have given a lot to have a little Rock
6:13 am
Scrabbler
I love cats but have never had one as a pet. I do know that cats and rabbits can get along well. I have a friend who says that her rabbit thinks it is a cat--grooms and gets groomed by the cats in the home and cuddles with them all day.
6:14 am
metaleather
how neat
6:15 am
Eva
We had a rabbit many years ago, a very, very large one, who terrorized all the other animals in the household, including dogs and cats. When they got too frisky he would stomp his enormous hind feet and they ran
6:15 am
Scrabbler
I get to see 2 new babies at the children's hospital this AM.
6:15 am
metaleather
he was the Alpha of the pack
6:15 am
Scrabbler
Bunny Callie would do that--she is sassy and bossy.
6:16 am
metaleather
new patients to you, or "new babies"?
6:16 am
Scrabbler
Newborns---always fun to see.
6:18 am
Eva
Its' going to be a hard decision when Merp leaves us (which will never happen of course because he's going to be the first immortal cat), because on the one hand I can't imagine living without a cat in the house and on the other we have wanted to travel for some time and it is so hard to do that with a cat. Some are easier than others. Merp has had several life threatening attacks with urinary stones (none for 3 years now) , and they tend to happen when he is stressed...which he gets when we leave him, and I can't count on a casual cat sitter to recognize the signs.
6:18 am
metaleather
so much promise and so many possibilities in those tiny little people
6:19 am
metaleather
back in a bit, need to go afk for a few
6:19 am
Scrabbler
Eva, I feel like that with Callie--she is 7 1/2 almost, and the boss of the downstairs. She follows me everywhere. But she chews everything and when she is gone I will get a new couch and new flooring. I am sort of waiting until she is gone yet I don't want her to be gone.
6:20 am
Eva
how long do bunnies usually live?
6:21 am
mrpresident
oh am happy we are chatting about cats... we have to move ours. Should I drug her so that she isn't stressed? or keep her with others until we are set up
6:21 am

Away From Keyboard = afk

Hi mrp and sprite!

How is today's puzzle?
6:23 am
Scrabbler
Would anyone like to take my trash can and recycling containers to the end of the driveway?
6:23 am
chiley
I don't think you'd need to drug her. I'd keep her contained in a quiet room in the old house, and move her last...to a quiet room in the new house for a few hours.
6:24 am
Scrabbler
There are several great patterns in the grid, Nonnie.
6:24 am
Eva
It really depends on the cat mrp....some most need calm and quiet and some need your presence. Also, the MOST important thing is that cats shouldn't be allowed out (if you live someplace where cats go out) for at least 2 weeks after a move. And then only briefly with your guidance, until you are sure they now how to get back to the house. A lot of cats are permanently lost during moves. So if there's going to be a lot of chaos with doors being left open then it might be better to leave her somewhere safe until things calm down.
6:24 am
NonnieLight
Just do what our neighbors do, scrabbler...leave it on the curb all week long <rolling eyes>
6:24 am
sprite
it is a fun grid
6:24 am
Eva
sure scrabbler-be right over. Will you bring up firewood for me?
6:25 am
Scrabbler
I have a huge pile in the woods next to my house that I can donate.
6:25 am
mrpresident
oh sprite! i am here too ((hello))
6:26 am
sprite
anyone who wants to do my shopping for me and pick up my meds? I will do anything in return if I can stay indoors.
6:26 am
Eva
I have plenty, but just don't feel like lugging it up the stairs this morning. Mainly don't feel like getting out of bed.
6:26 am
sprite
*hugs mrP*
6:26 am

you not well, Eva, or just lazy?
6:26 am
metaleather
hi Nonnie, chiley, Mr. P and anyone I've missed while I was away
6:27 am
Scrabbler
With so much nonsense happening in American society, I often want to move to the Netherlands or Belgium or Sweden or Finland, Sprite, so maybe I could help you.
6:27 am
NonnieLight
hello metal!
6:27 am
Eva
Just the usual morning fibro aches. They'll actually work out much better once I begin moving, but it takes me a while.
6:27 am

it would be wonderful, Scrabbler. :)
6:27 am

aw, that sucks, Eva. Good luck and *hugs*
6:27 am
Eva
How are you doing sprite?

Does a hot shower or bath help, Eva?
6:28 am
sprite
wobbly, Eva.
6:28 am
Eva
sorry to hear it sprite
6:29 am
mrpresident
the dog is being doggysitted by friends, and the kids are away with inlaws, but the cat is my concern, she most certainly will be upset
6:29 am
Scrabbler
Bunny Callie just reminded me to order more rabbit food and treats from our favorite company...BRB
6:29 am

everything sometimes helps and sometimes doesn't scrabbler, but I feel like I'm getting healthier so that makes everything more bearable.

6:33 am
chiley
MrP.....when we moved we kept the cats in their carriers for a bit and put them in the back room until things calmed down a bit. They hid out for a few days until they became more comfortable then started exploring and picking out their favorite spots.
6:34 am
metaleather
it'd probably be best not to allow them to roam outside for at least a couple of weeks if possible
6:34 am
NonnieLight
OK, thank you...I stooopidly flung hot butter and oil on my hand. Some of the area blistered right away while most I guess are first/second degree. Anyway, my question is the blisters that are popping and draining is it best to just leave them or should I try and get the dead skin off?

6:35 am

eeeeks Nonnie, that is terrible. Make sure you cool long enough. Not with icecold water, but cool.
6:36 am
Scrabbler
If there is loose skin it is best to peel it away (debridement) in a clean manner as the dead tissue is a breeding ground for bacteria. and OUCH!!!
6:36 am
Scrabbler
But do not pop intact blisters--let them shrink and dry up. And, did I say OUCH!!!!!!!

Since the biggest blister has drained the skin really isn't loose any more.
6:37 am
Scrabbler
Better the compueter than your brain, MRP
6:38 am
NonnieLight
OK, so best to just leave it then at this point, right? My fear is the pain of course but I didn't want an opened wound either.
6:39 am
billmster
just seen the number of times my message came up don't know why! SORRY folks
6:39 am
Scrabbler
If the blister has collapsed or drained, you can leave it. Apply an antibacterial ointment or cream, e.g. Polysporin. We usually prescribe Silvadene cream.
6:39 am
NonnieLight
No problem, bill...how are you today?
6:39 am
sprite
lol billmster, glad you noticed ;)
6:40 am
NonnieLight
OK, thank you, scrabbler. I have the silvadene cream and have been putting that on it so I will continue to do so. I greatly appreciate your help!
6:40 am

BR, TY for that link---autism is an enigma! I do have a set of identical twin boys in my practice with autism.
6:40 am

so how about cooling, Scrabbler... isn't that important?
6:41 am
Scrabbler
Nonnie--the skin will remain pink for months but will lighten up eventually.
6:41 am

thanks babrab, new insight!

Right after the burn, cold water relieves the pain.

good luck, mrP, think of yourself
6:43 am
NonnieLight
I figured it would, scrabbler. I used the water right away and that was the only way I could get any relief from the pain for most of the day. The silvadene cream was gotten from the pharmacy in the evening and it was painful to apply but after about 30 minutes (and lots of pray) the pain finally eased up. I was amazed.

last week a player (I forgot who) had a daughter who was going to be on a new game show called How Much is Enough

Well, Annie, be particularly steathful since the three cars out front are operatives from the fbi, cia and department of homeland secuirty .... Mom called the boy scout home
6:58 am

Good work Annie, you can pick up your paycheque at the kiosk. Aloy, you responded first so you may also pick up a cheque. I suggest taking Annie's.
6:58 am

Sapyre's daughter, I think. Kim, maybe? Yeah
6:59 am

anyone watch it?
6:59 am

did she win?
7:00 am

oh dear. no question game shows are bad
7:02 am

4 people, they put a dollar amount on the board like $1,000 then they start running it down and each player has to "lock in" before the amount runs down

I agree Annie
7:04 am

7:36 am
Aloyisius
she was a wi6 child, always wanting her own way
7:36 am
Merk
ty, that was my last word babble. I did not realize it was spelled like that.
7:36 am
Ragalla
ty - i had convinced myself there wasnt a T in the grid!
7:36 am
Merk
So fireworks!
7:36 am
Aloyisius

Not yet, ch, it's not out here yet, but I'm planning to
7:39 am

It's breathtaking and brutal -- I think you'll enjoy it. We did.

hi, all. hurrah, Merk!

7:45 am
Angelsong
my neighbors and I are about to go to court in a class action suit against the builder who constructed our homes.
7:46 am
Jars
s + Will Ferrell Christmas movie + p***-pong
7:47 am
Angelsong
seems he did not pay his bills for construction materials...and we all got letters from the lumber company saying they are putting liens against our homes. In no way do we, as homeowners owe the money. The builder does. He is also being sued for 1.5 million dollars by the developer of the property.
7:48 am
EvaNadine
angel -- are you also the one who needed wheelchair access throughout your home + the builder said you could do it after, but you later found out you cant?
7:49 am
Angelsong
yes. the man is not at all ethical.
7:50 am
Merk
I have found all the words, but I can't get my beta version to send the words to Babble. My top row of colored icons won't light up. I rebooted, but no luck.
7:50 am
Angelsong
we did do the mods anyway. I could give a hang about the 1 year builder's warranty. A broken hip or other injury just is not worth it.
7:50 am
Aloyisius
aaargh...ty refreshing clues and then resending?
7:50 am
EvaNadine
good gracious!
seems hes 100% schemes and lies!
7:50 am
Angelsong
Merk, which version are you using?
7:51 am
Aloyisius
try, that is.. need more caffeine
7:51 am
Angelsong
his whole family is like that, too.
7:51 am
Merk
The most recent one, I thought.
7:51 am
Angelsong
meanwhile, he built himself an 8,000 squre foot house, and bought his wife a new Hummer.
7:52 am
Merk
bbl, I'm giving up for a bit ... showering before I hit the sack.
7:52 am
Angelsong
it is, as far as I know, Merk. I'm using it also, with no problems
7:54 am
Angelsong
26 families are affected by the liens...and some are in poor health.
7:57 am
EvaNadine
angel -- im so sorry to hear about all the stress + drama that builder is putting you all through...
but it definitel sounds like he wont have much of a case against you, and you all have quite a case against him!
7:58 am
Aloyisius
hope all of you have called the BBB so they will have a complaint record, too
8:01 am
Angelsong
we are all united in this. meeting is taking place tonight to plan strategy
8:01 am
Aloyisius
good.. strength in numbers!
8:02 am
Angelsong
all of us are outraged.
8:03 am
EvaNadine
and rightfully so!
8:03 am
Angelsong
the homeowner's association is also aware.
8:04 am
Jars
I need two more 7s...got fe, me, re, & se...anyone know what I'm missing?

Anniebrook
Hi Une, how was your trip to New York?
8:05 am
Angelsong
possibly, Annie. The builder is being forced out of business, it seems. He was building in nearby towns, and now has to stop construction in those communities.
8:06 am
Uneaixoise
it was GREAT, Annie--I highly recommend "November" and "The 39 Steps"!! (of course, am now home with terrible cold but it was worthy every cough!! LOL)
8:06 am
Anniebrook
What a low person! I wish you good luck..I know you will prevail..
8:06 am

none of us are going to give up, Annie.
8:09 am
Anniebrook
You looked forward to owning your own home and now this...
8:10 am
Angelsong
He's not going to win, though.
8:10 am
EvaNadine
hints on the Z word?
8:10 am
Anniebrook
I assume you all have an attorney
8:11 am
BabbleRabble
Most states require all contractors to be licensed and bonded. In addition, some building contracts require a performance bond.
8:11 am
Angelsong
ze: like a jewel word; change the first letter, add a vowel at the end.
8:11 am
Angelsong
we're going to hire an attorney as a group, likely.
8:11 am
Aloyisius
ze + not out
8:12 am
Angelsong
sorry, my clue was wrong, aloy is correct
8:12 am
BabbleRabble
If your contract had a performance bond, the insurer is obligated to hire someone else to conplete the contract
8:13 am
EvaNadine
thanks!
how about those U words?
8:14 am
BabbleRabble
probably would be a good idea to call the secretary of states office to find out what bonds your state requires of contractors
8:15 am
Angelsong
yes, BR
8:15 am
Aloyisius
ul + he became ***ciated when he didn't eat
8:15 am
BabbleRabble
ul 5 -- u + pro golfer tony l***; pl
8:16 am
EvaNadine
thanks!
8:16 am
Anniebrook
thanks, Aloy and BR
8:16 am
Aloyisius
heh, se6.21 and se5.12 rhyme
8:17 am
Aloyisius
and both have to do with males, lol..
8:18 am
Anniebrook
Aloy, got them, thanks
8:18 am
BabbleRabble
If you have a copy of the construction contract there should be a reference to a performance bond if one was required and proof from the inurer of the bond
8:19 am
Angelsong
I have all of the documentation at hand.
8:19 am
Jars
What country is pro golfer Tony L*** from?
8:20 am
BabbleRabble
brit
8:20 am
Aloyisius
but his last name rhymes with the capital of Peru
8:20 am
EvaNadine
i believe he was from the US...
8:21 am
BabbleRabble
if there is a lawsuit a court will look to see what the owner has done to mitigate damages ... in other words you cannot increase your damages by not taking steps to prevent economic loss
8:24 am
Aloyisius
fireworks, so hi ho hi its off to you know what.. see you next time, all.. happy Babbling!
8:24 am
BabbleRabble
congrats, Aloyisius

8:27 am
Jars
Out of curiosity, what's the most words in a single grid anyone's seen?
8:28 am
BabbleRabble
no, Annie I clued the third
8:28 am
BabbleRabble
the three letter words are the toughest
8:28 am
Angelsong
545 as far as I know, Jars.
8:29 am
Anniebrook
when I clue the actor Paul ****, I put the entire word into the grid, I think?
8:29 am
Anniebrook
angel, did you finish the grid with 545 words?
8:29 am
Anniebrook
I put the same question to you, BR...
8:30 am
movieman
I did!!!!!!!
8:30 am
Angelsong
I love large grids. much easier than the small ones. This one is about average. Yes, Annie.
8:31 am
movieman
The highest scoring word so far is cankerworms, with a score of 168 points
8:31 am
Anniebrook
good for you all, when the grid is very large I dont use Lickety's clue at all and I cant download his Babble Expert. I am woefully lacking in computer skills. dammmmm
8:31 am
Anniebrook
*clies

Anniebrook

8:32 am
Angelsong
what's the problem with downloading the Expert, Annie?
8:33 am
Anniebrook

8:33 am

8:34 am

Oh, Annie, Babble Expert makes doing the large grids much easier to finish, I love Babble Expert
8:34 am
BabbleRabble
Annie, when you do, ask Lickety to stay and help you download and install ...
8:35 am
Anniebrook
peri, everyone loves babble expert and I sit here doing the grid the old fashioned way
8:35 am
EvaNadine
ive never downloaded Expert, only because i do most of my babbling at work + we arent allowed to download things here...
8:35 am
periwinkle
once you get Expert there is no turning back Annie :-)
8:35 am
Anniebrook
BR, Yes, he has offered to help me but I am stuck in a different time zone and refuse ( or am terrified) to move out of it
8:36 am
Angelsong
I know others who also have anxiety/fear of computers, Annie.I have one friend who is terrified to download ANYthing. I had to really push her to even update windows.
8:36 am
EvaNadine
hints for the S words in th bottom row?
8:36 am
silversarah
sorry to interrupt - but what is Babble Expert
8:37 am

I used to be fearful myself....until I realized...I know where the off switch and power cables are. and I am not afriad to use them.
8:37 am
Atalante
annie, I dont use Expert. You're not the only one :P
8:38 am
BabbleRabble
I don't use it either
8:38 am
Anniebrook

8:40 am
Atalante

8:40 am
EvaNadine

9:04 am
Haz1558
Hello Annie - Spangle is well, enjoying a snooze.
9:04 am
Atalante
the last one - the biiig roundabout with roads leading off it to Fav, Canterbury and Whitstable
9:04 am
silversarah
ok I know
9:05 am
silversarah
I live right in the centre of canterbury - just behind the Marlowe
9:05 am
Atalante
oh wow! I love those houses there. Lucky you
9:06 am
silversarah
its nice being so central
9:06 am
Atalante
I envy all the houses there when I walk from town through to the car parks beyond the Marlowe
9:07 am
silversarah
so are you in the countryside
9:07 am
Atalante
not really, right next to the A2. but next to fields. so half and half
9:07 am

trying to get mom to meet me there so we can all spend time together

how about in6/21?
9:10 am
Judi
Oi! Pass that fish, vedaman.
9:11 am
Haz1558
in6/21 - for diabetics, missing a letter
9:11 am

Good clue, Haz!
9:11 am
vedaman
bah, I just monkeyed it too. ir6/30?
9:11 am
Haz1558
Thanks, Judi!
9:12 am
Haz1558
ir6/30 - done in angry manner?
9:13 am
vedaman
wow, good clue. thank you! I have 3 left now and a flight to catch. D:
9:13 am
Haz1558
Eva - going with a grandmother might eat up on your cuddling time....
9:14 am
Haz1558
Glad it helped, vedaman.
9:14 am
EvaNadine
nah -- grandma is usually the babysitter, so she usually lets me cuddle when im around cause she knows she will have plenty of time. :)
9:14 am
silversarah
helped me too - thanks
9:14 am
Haz1558
That's not so bad, then.
9:14 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, sarah.
9:14 am
EvaNadine
course, itll be interesting to see what they do now that there are 3, and 2 of them are mobile!
9:15 am
Haz1558
First time parents are always keen to see their children up and about. You learn not to encourage movement quite so early with the second!
9:16 am
EvaNadine
heh, and the second got up + about faster than the first!
but at least when theres only 2, you can strap one down while you chase the other...not sure how the grandparents are going to fare handling 3 kids!
9:17 am
Haz1558
The grandparents will have to work as a tag team.
9:18 am
EvaNadine
personally, i think it might be a good time to put the older one in daycare -- hes almost 3, so preschool is coming soon, and he really doesnt have much interaction with anyone other than immediate family and close friends -- much less other children!
daycare could help him get used to other kids before he starts school, as well as take a little work off of grandparents hands!
9:19 am
vedaman
ul5 please?
9:19 am
Haz1558
He's only a child. I sometimes think it must be overwhelming to be with lots of other children for long periods of time. Maybe a shorter time at first would ease him in.
9:20 am
Anniebrook
I see laundry in my future..see you all later
9:20 am
EvaNadine
yes, maybe a play group-type thing would be better...
just something that (1) gets him around other kids and (2) takes him off of everyones hands for a little while...
9:20 am
Haz1558
u plus a mixed up version of the word of which breakfast, lunch and dinner are varieties.
9:20 am
richp
How many words total today, anyone?

9:37 am
EvaNadine
things are definitely getting to be more routine now, scarlet!
we are mostly unpacked, though we are still deciding exactly how we want things. chris is miserable having to get up early again, but of course, hes glad to be back at work...
now we just need to go grocery shopping! we have NO food!
9:37 am
Scarlet
Great, candy... and good morning to both you and egbokmom! :-)
9:37 am

EvaNadine
heres hoping!
hehe
9:40 am
Scarlet
I truly detest grocery shopping, and only do it every three weeks or so... but, the chest freezer is getting low on meats... so, I have to hitch up my gunbelt and mosey into the market... probably tomorrow... I use the list and look for good sales, so I FEEL good when I'm done, but it never holds much appeal to me...
9:40 am
Uniquity
Good nearly afternoon again babble!
9:40 am
LadyNatts
I'm with you, scarlet... I hate shopping
9:41 am
Scarlet
UNi!! {{Hugs}} Dancing Funky Chicken for student/friend/ Babble buddy! Hi, Lady... yep, there are many of us who just despise it! :-)
9:41 am
Atalante
I loooove online shopping!
9:42 am
Scarlet
Good day, Ata! Good to see you again... has your friend returned to the U.S.A.?
9:42 am
Uniquity
Grocery shopping drives me nuts...I had to do it the other day, then lug all the stuff home. Only a five minute walk but I had all the heavy stuff!
9:42 am
Uniquity
Hey Red! Carlee was requesting yesterday, did you get back to her?
9:42 am
Atalante
yes *sigh* I miss her
9:42 am
Uniquity
Ooh...Ata again too. What a day, what a day!
9:43 am
Scarlet
No, Uni... I did not know, I have been sort of unsocial lately... not that I am upset, but just busy getting the home into post-holiday order and cleanliness...
9:43 am
Haz1558
And I'm here too. My vote is with the grocery shop haters.
9:44 am
egbokmom
Kerry just endorsed Obama.
9:44 am

Good afternoon, Haz... I wonder why we dislike it so much? Time consuming? Monotonous? Repetitive? Just "blah"?

I don't like to grocery shop too much either, but know that i'm learning to bake and cook, it's a little better.
9:44 am
egbokmom
sorry, I'm hooked to election stuff
9:44 am
debjed
help with that Z, please
9:45 am
Uniquity
Heya Hazlet. How is your day thus far? (Aside from brightened by babble and our lovely selves.)
9:45 am
Haz1558
I've been doing the grocery shopping for 25 years. The novelty has worn off, well and truly.
9:45 am
Scarlet
ZE+ not out
9:45 am
debjed
thanks red:)
9:45 am
EvaNadine
i also hate grocery shopping...
chris + i keep saying we need to PLAN our meals, so we know exactly what to buy, but we never actually DO it...heh
9:45 am
Haz1558
Well, Uniquity, the day is not bad at all. Much brightened by your shining face, of course.
9:46 am
egbokmom
is that the only z?
9:46 am
Uniquity
It looks much like the face Scarlet just displayed.
9:46 am
debjed
yes to egbokmom:)
9:47 am
Uniquity
Except there is a tad more angelic glow upon my own.
9:48 am
Haz1558
That's what that is.
9:48 am
debjed
so if a person (like me) is pretty clueless about politics and doesn't keep up on the election stuff, where would one go (on line) to get good info?
9:48 am
Scarlet
But of course, Uni! The first word I saw this morning in the grid was "Fulgent", and of course it is not in here... but that may describe your shining cheeks..
9:49 am
Scarlet
deb, ABC.com issues a newletter on political happenings; MSNBC is also very good.
9:49 am
LadyNatts
what's the icon theme today?
9:49 am
LadyNatts
I suppose I could go look, but...
9:49 am
Scarlet
It's supposed to be Muslim New Year, Lady
9:50 am
Uniquity
Just remember that anything you find online will have the bias of the author, so try to use a few different sources for opposing biases and more info.
9:50 am
LadyNatts
I wouldn't know what to pick for that :(
9:50 am
EvaNadine
deb -- this might be useful:

9:50 am
Uniquity
I tried to keep my potatoes as they are delicious, but it was causing uproar about latkes, so I had to change.
9:50 am
Scarlet
I installed the wrong one earlier... and grabbed tomorrow's icon, favorite breakfast item... and I am using the filet mignon... LOL
9:51 am
debjed
thanks for the info
9:51 am
Haz1558
I thought favourite breakfast was yesterday?
9:51 am
Uniquity
Oh Red! You should have been here yesterday when I finished the grid without the list for the first time ever. Haz walked me through it. 'Twas fantastic.
9:51 am
Uniquity
Breakfast was yesterday, word from grid tomorrow, I think.
9:52 am
Haz1558
We did a victory dance together. Just an ocean separated us, but you get the drift.
9:52 am
EvaNadine
yes, friday is always word from the grid. sometimes there will be a secondary as well...
9:52 am
Scarlet
I am so mixed up, then, Haz. I thought it was David Bowie's birthday... I am out of the loop!
9:52 am
Uniquity
It was still a special moment, Haz.
9:52 am
EvaNadine
actually, wasnt yesterday evlis=bowie?
i think breakfast was tuesday!
9:52 am
debjed
good for you Uniquity, i've been trying to go as far as i can without the list.
9:53 am
Haz1558
I know. I was sad Atalante wasn't there to witness the moment.
9:53 am
Scarlet
Oh, Uni! That is some accomplishment. She also gave me much of her time when I was a relative newbie with Babble... one night in particular, Haz stayed up well past 1 a.m. to help me... I have never forgotten that kindness!
9:53 am
Uniquity
tuesday was elvis/bowie. Yesterday was breakfast...**am checking**
9:53 am
Haz1558
Could we have an icon of David Bowie eating breakfast on Muslim New Year?
9:54 am
EvaNadine
i knew it was something like that...heh...
ive had little Laida up all week. :)
9:54 am
Haz1558
Get googling, people.
9:54 am
LadyNatts
what a pretty name, eva
9:54 am
EvaNadine
thanks lady -- shes my new niece. :)
9:55 am
LadyNatts
wonderful!
9:55 am
Haz1558
Incidentally, Uniquity, you've accomplished something I've never even attempted. I'm MUCH too impatient not to resort to the list. I read the last page of detective novels and everything - can't stand suspense.
9:55 am
Uniquity
She's so teeny! I always forget how really small they are at first! Is she home now?
9:55 am
Uniquity
I get yelled at a lot for reading the last page of a book when I get fed up.
9:55 am
EvaNadine
yes, they came home monday -- im going to visit them tonight. :)
9:56 am
LadyNatts
lol haz...
9:56 am
Haz1558
You need to learn to do it when no-one else is looking, Uniquity.
9:56 am
Uniquity
Aww, now it's even more special. I've one-upped you AND my mother! If only everyone had been there to see..
9:56 am
Haz1558
I'm always amazed at all the little creases in fingers and toes.
9:57 am
Haz1558
Yes, this gives cannon fodder in spades to you, Uniquity. You can drop it into conversation at every opportunity!
9:57 am
Uniquity
Do you live close, Eva? I'm assuming yes
9:58 am
Becca Lorum
Hi everyone
9:58 am
EvaNadine
we are about an hour away...sometimes more, if theres traffic, which i expect there will be, but at least im trying to meet my mother for dinner as well...
9:58 am
Uniquity
**Calls out Ata** You still alive?
Hey Becca!!! How is bebe today?
9:58 am
Haz1558
Hello Becca!
9:58 am
Becca Lorum
Very well today thanks Uni
9:58 am
Uniquity
At least you are not seperated by a flight! It's good to be able to have family around like that.
9:59 am
Atalante
I'm here! Just dazed and confused :)
9:59 am
Becca Lorum
Hi haz, Hi deb
9:59 am
debjed
hi Atalante
9:59 am
Haz1558
Dazed and confused with a happy smile? Has Imran arrived, bags and all, looking for refuge?
10:00 am
debjed
any help for the U words?
10:00 am
Atalante
I wish!!
10:00 am
Atalante
trying to install a decent guestbook into a new website
10:00 am
Haz1558
ul5/14 - u plus a mixed up version of the word - breakfast, lunch and dinner are varieties.
10:01 am
Haz1558
ul6/24 is its plural.
10:01 am
Uniquity
Just decent. No better than that or the guests might get cocky.
10:01 am
Haz1558
And you didn't ask me for technical advice, Ata? I'm hurt.
10:01 am
Becca Lorum
Thanks Haz - nice clues, ax ever
10:01 am
Atalante
I'm sorry. I really should have done
10:01 am
debjed
thank you Haz
10:02 am
Haz1558
You're welcome!
10:02 am
Uniquity
Blame FM for Ata's lack of sensitivity? Check.
10:02 am
Haz1558
I bought a new microwave yesterday and had to take it back to the shop to get them to show me how to work it.
10:03 am
Haz1558
I felt such a fool. In my defence, husband had tried as well, he had even read instructions and everything.
10:03 am
Becca Lorum
LOL Haz! I couldn't work out my sister's microwave the other day. Pressed every button on the thing, still wouldn't cook anything!
10:03 am
Haz1558
The young man in the shop just hit a few buttons and away it went. The shame of it.
10:04 am
Uniquity
That's what ovens, pots and pans are for. I don't even have a microwave as ours broke and I didn't want another one.
10:04 am
Haz1558
This one won't work unless the clock is set. Why does a microwave need to know the time?
10:04 am
Becca Lorum
He's a robot Haz - he's been programmed to do that
10:04 am
Uniquity
Plus, then I get super lazy and would never cook again! :)
10:04 am
Becca Lorum
I hate microwaves - never use ours, it's in the cellar!
10:04 am
Haz1558
My previous model had all sorts of fancy bits which I never used. This is a much simpler model, except that I couldn't get it to work.
10:05 am
Scarlet
Haz, I was not here some time ago, when you and your sister were television shopping? Was that also an adventure in retail?
10:05 am
Becca Lorum
Hi bfsog
10:05 am
Scarlet
HI, Becca adn bfsog!
10:05 am
Becca Lorum
Hi Scarlet
10:05 am
Haz1558
Scarlet, it was the same shop. I made a fool of myself looking for proper TVs. You know, ones with workings at the back. They exist no more.
10:05 am
Uniquity
Hello today BF!
10:06 am
Haz1558
They're all these slim-line things that look like computer screens. When did the revolution happen?
10:06 am
Becca Lorum
There are too many phantom words today :(
10:06 am
Uniquity
They are eliminating all non-flat screen or plasma tvs, slowly. Just as they are eliminating basic cable. By 2009, for and channels, you must have a digital box or satellite.
10:06 am
Scarlet
Then, at least, you are keeping your purchases in the same shop, Haz! I am laughing because I am so gratified to hear that I am not the only Luddite here...
10:06 am
Uniquity
(In Canada at least)
10:06 am
Becca Lorum
While you weren't looking Haz
10:07 am
Scarlet
Same here in the U.S.A., Uni.
10:07 am
Becca Lorum
And here too Uni
10:07 am
Haz1558
I tend to buy all electrical goods in the same shop, on the basis that just one lot of shop assistants can giggle about me, rather than the whole town.
10:07 am
Uniquity
Well then. Worldwide, the price of bad entertainment shall go up.
10:08 am
Haz1558
They're very nice - they have a service department where you just stand and look helpless.
10:08 am
Scarlet
They don't gossip about the vet's wife who looks good, but becomes stymied with electronics?
10:08 am
Haz1558
They may very well do, Scarlet. They don't laugh in my face, I'll give them that.
10:09 am
Becca Lorum
I've always found electrical store assistants completely useless myself
10:09 am
phaeton
is there a clue for the ir6?
10:09 am
Scarlet
LOl, Haz... your money is as useable as the next person's...
10:09 am
Scarlet
Loaded with anger, phaeton.
10:10 am
LadyNatts
ooo... phae... I was looking for the IR too... and I got angry
10:10 am
Uniquity
I never ask for help unless absolutely necessary. I know I can do it on my own eventually.
10:10 am
Haz1558
It's fine - I've been going there for years and they know how to look after me. I just hold up whatever I'm needing a replacement for and they scuttle off to get it for me.
10:11 am
Scarlet
We always shop locally to support the independent store owners... there are too many "big box" stores in the region, and we are locked in to buy from the independents.
10:11 am
Becca Lorum
I asked the difference between several washing maxhines and the assistant atarted to read the labels on them - which I had already done myself
10:11 am
Becca Lorum
They didn't know anything about them. Now we shop in independent shops too Scarlet
10:12 am
Haz1558
This particular shop is very good - and the town generally has a good reputation as a shopping town. Bargaining is quite acceptable.
10:12 am
Scarlet
The good thing is that daughter has many friends who are computer savvy, and can usually fix just about anything... I know, Becca...the Walmarts of the world are eating the mom and pop stores by the acre...
10:12 am
Becca Lorum
too far for me to come and shop there Haz! Shame :(
10:13 am
Scarlet
Please send a Ballymena here, Haz!
10:13 am
Becca Lorum
Don't get me started Scarlet!!
10:13 am
bfsog
hey all. (again) had to go help someone use a printer
10:13 am
Scarlet
lOL... you know what I mean, Becca!
10:13 am
Uniquity
I just don't buy things anymore...anything electronic I buy, no matter how much research I do, will break. Laptop has broken three times...everything. I always get the defect, I swear.
10:14 am
EvaNadine
so, haz, ive updated my icon witha picture of David Bowie withi his favorite breakfast food while celebrating the Islamic New Year!
;)
10:14 am
Haz1558
Checking it out.
10:14 am
Becca Lorum
I always get the duff mobile phone. I think I have a strong magnetic filed that kills elctrical things!
10:14 am
72 Temple Owl
hi babble buds!
10:14 am
Haz1558
Well done Eva!
10:14 am
Haz1558
Hello TO - how are you today?
10:14 am
EvaNadine
im no photoshop genius, but i was amused. ;)
10:15 am
Scarlet
Uni, there is a chain here called "Best Buy", and it seems to be universally loved as a good electronics' resource. I really dislike them, because of what I have learned about their predatory lending Ponzi schemes for those silly enough to charge a purchase on their store-issued credit cards. Hi, TO!
10:15 am
EvaNadine
back to the baby girl now. :)
10:16 am
72 Temple Owl
in need of a laugh and a place to chill!
10:16 am
Haz1558
Yes, that was a quick change! Laida's prettier.
10:16 am
Becca Lorum
Hi TO
10:16 am
Haz1558
Does that mean you've had a bad day so far, TO?
10:16 am
Uniquity
Any time I try to buy something (my cell phone, my camera, the mp3 player I intend to buy some day, that sort of thing) it always breaks! Usually within warranty which is nice..but it is infuriating to spend so much money after so much research and have it die.
10:16 am
EvaNadine
while bowie IS very attractive, my niece is cuter!
10:17 am
EvaNadine
though i just learned i wont be visiting tonight, as the whole household is at the doctors sick today!
10:17 am
Becca Lorum
Oh no Eva, what a shame.
10:17 am
Haz1558
That, Eva, is what Scots would term a scunner! (A nuisance, a bother)
10:17 am
Uniquity
oooh...that is a lot of sick around a new girl!
10:17 am
Scarlet
Eva, I have refreshed, but cannot see your Bowie/ Breakfast/ Muslim New Year conglomeration...
10:18 am
72 Temple Owl
nor can i
10:18 am
EvaNadine
scarlet -- it was a quick change + im already back to Laida...heh
10:18 am
Becca Lorum
time for the list - 82 to go, but I've stalled
10:19 am
EvaNadine
yes, my sis-in-law is still recovering from the C-section, brother may have strep + one of the boys has the runs...
so it looks like little Laida might go with grandma for a day or 2!
10:19 am
Haz1558
Looks like you're going to need to change the baby again.
10:19 am
Scarlet
Speedy Gonzalez... LOL
10:19 am
Uniquity
Ugh. Sounds like a house to NOT visit today, Eva!
10:19 am
Scarlet
May I please have a clue for the fu6/30 above Gaea's daughters?
10:20 am
Becca Lorum
Better staying well clear i think Eva
10:20 am
EvaNadine
seeing as how i just got over a cold that hit me on christmas, im definitely not going there right now!
10:20 am
Haz1558
fu6 - fu plus where the bird lays its head and eggs
10:20 am
Scarlet
Thank you, Haz... as always!
10:20 am
LadyNatts
ty haz... I needed that one too
10:21 am
Haz1558
You're welcome - as ever!
10:21 am
Scarlet
Down to 27 now, so it is time to switch out the laundry and make my beloved a nice lunch. See you all soon.
10:22 am
Becca Lorum
Bye Scarlet, see you later
10:22 am
Haz1558
See you Scarlet. Enjoy lunch.
10:22 am
Uniquity
Bye Red! :)

Uniquity
Hey Taku!
10:24 am
Haz1558
Hello Takuma - it's a nice grid, though with surprises.
10:24 am
Takuma Sato
that's the best kind
10:25 am
Takuma Sato
ugh, it's 80F here, and I have a cold

Becca Lorum
First fl 5/20 please
10:28 am
Becca Lorum
NM got it
10:29 am
Haz1558
That's good - no need to throw out a clue, then.
10:29 am
Becca Lorum
Nope, no need, Haz!
10:29 am
Uniquity
Nice clue Haz...too bad I already had it!
10:29 am
Becca Lorum
Oh, just got that! Sorry, slow on the uptake!
10:30 am
Haz1558
No problem!
10:30 am
EvaNadine
looks like instead if visiting, i might be grocery shopping tonight...
funfunfun...
10:31 am
Becca Lorum
Cuold someone clue the fu 6/30 - Scarlet made reference to Gaea's daughter?
10:31 am
Uneaixoise

10:31 am
72 Temple Owl
mmmm grid has zima...
10:31 am
Haz1558
The daughters were permanently in a foul, angry mood?
10:32 am
Haz1558
Or plural version of Billy, 1950's British singer.
10:32 am
EvaNadine
daughter of darkness
10:32 am
Becca Lorum
Eva, just think how exciting it will be to look at all the food on offer, the 4 million types of cheese you could chooses from, toilet rolls, eggs, potatoes....Ooh!
10:32 am
EvaNadine
piper turned into one once on charmed. ;)
10:32 am
Haz1558

Haz1558
Eva has officially changed her name to Pollyanna.
10:34 am
Becca Lorum
hello mummy
10:35 am
EvaNadine
lol...have i, now?
10:35 am
mummy
hi Becca, just introducing my nephew to Babble, he is staying with me for a week along with his wife and 6mth old baby
10:36 am
Haz1558
Well, if you can face the prospect of going grocery shopping instead of viewing your new niece with equanimity, you're definitely showing Pollyanna like optimism.
10:36 am
Becca Lorum
You'll get him hooked Mummy - you Babble pusher, you!
10:36 am
Uniquity
Becca, I thought you were talking to your actual Mum....now I feel dumb ;)
10:37 am
Becca Lorum
LOL Uni! But htat does remind me I must phone her later
10:37 am
EvaNadine
well, we have no food at the house...
so the option of being able to eat makes me happy...heh
10:38 am
Haz1558
Fair enough.
10:38 am
mummy
yep, look after your mum, she's the only one you've got, I lost mine many years ago and still miss her like mad
10:38 am
Becca Lorum
I'm off to pick hubby up from work. Unlikely to get back on to finisht his today :( Happy Babbling all!
10:38 am
Uniquity
Just get cheese, baguettes, margarine, spinach and strawberries. You can sustain yourself on those.
10:38 am
Becca Lorum
What, no potatoes Uni?!!
10:38 am
Haz1558
Have a good day, Becca.
10:38 am
Uniquity
Take care Becca! And make sure to call your Mum. Or convince her to join babble, like I did :)
10:39 am
Haz1558
Potatoes are a given.
10:39 am
EvaNadine
heh, ive already made up a list...thanks to www.mygrocerychecklist.com its a breeze!
10:39 am
Uniquity
And potatoes! I can't believe I didn't write potatoes...and corn.
10:39 am
Uniquity
my grocery lists come on paper...then I don't follow them at all.
10:39 am
Atalante
I have been here ... kind of ... but now I'm going for a nap. I'm still dying of coughs and colds. Haz, I'll send you an email later!

Hmm, good idea Uni.

Oh, oh, me too Ata! :D

10:51 am
phaeton
ok, there is no se7/40...only se7/48
10:51 am
Haz1558
wi6/42 - an act committed knowingly is wi6.
10:51 am
pabtrek
thanks Haz, fireworks
10:52 am
Haz1558
Hello Flask - fu6/30 either can be plural version of very angry women or
10:52 am
72 Temple Owl
no candy. i am just a hasty typist : /
10:52 am
Haz1558
fu6/30 - fu plus the place where a bird lays its head or its eggs.
10:52 am
Haz1558
Congratulations pabtrek.

10:55 am
LadyNatts
neither was smurfing
10:55 am
Flask1
can I be cheeky and ask for a clue for fe6/30 now please?
10:56 am
candycane7
Owl, that was my thought earlier
10:56 am
LadyNatts
considering how many "made up" words are accepted here, I am quite surprised
10:56 am
Haz1558
fe6/30 - fe plus the beginning of a device that measures or a word to do with regulations.
10:56 am
umopapisdn
g'morning.. and i agree. smurf should be a word!
10:57 am
Haz1558
fe7 is its plural.
10:57 am
Uniquity
Haz, do you just wake up with the grid finished, or do you ignore chat until done?
10:57 am
Flask1
thanks again,Haz!
10:57 am
carleekat

72 Temple Owl

10:57 am
phaeton

10:58 am
Haz1558
Now you're making me laugh, Uniquity. The idea of the grid being done already.
10:58 am
carleekat
hey to
10:58 am
Haz1558
I tend to do it with chat log closed for some of the time.
10:58 am
umopapisdn
hello owl
10:58 am
72 Temple Owl
actually , haz never completes a grid. she employs a surrogate babbler, and just clues all day
10:59 am
Haz1558
Darn. My cover has been blown.
10:59 am
Haz1558
Step forward Spangle the wonder babbler.
10:59 am
candycane7
LOL Owl, where do I find a surrogate
11:00 am
Haz1558
fr6 - looks like the present tense or the plural of fr4/12
11:01 am
Haz1558
Look below - one letter short of what curly hair does in the rain.
11:01 am
phaeton
Thanks, Haz, was trying to put too many letters in the wored
11:01 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, phaeton.
11:01 am

11:01 am
Deeha
It wont even let you have seest as in My God thou seest.........!!
11:02 am
Haz1558
Yes, Spangle possesses strange and wonderful powers. We discovered it by accident one day.
11:02 am
72 Temple Owl
oh come one - everyone knows that requires 2 Zs!
11:02 am
Deeha
I bet Sapngel is the sort that suddenly stares at the corner of a room as tho saomeone is standing there - sppoky!!

We knew who you meant Deeha.

haz I can't say as I have ever heard of them
11:08 am
Haz1558
Everyone's too young to remember Pinky and Perky. They were piglet puppets with extremely high singing voices. I'm dating myself.
11:09 am
72 Temple Owl
not too young, haz...must just be a uk thing
11:09 am
Uniquity
I am far too young for that sort of antiquity Haz. Keep up! :) I think of Pinky and the brain...mouse cartoon characters that spun off from animaniacs.
11:09 am
Deeha
Hate to admit it but I remember them too!
11:10 am
Haz1558
Aha - it's a UK thing for those of more experience in life.
11:10 am
candycane7
Uni, I can identify
11:10 am
Deeha
But I cant remember why we thought they were funny at the time!!
11:10 am

11:14 am
72 Temple Owl

11:15 am
phaeton

11:15 am
Haz1558

11:15 am
72 Temple Owl
irate

11:21 am
Haz1558
First three letters are for anger (or the start of the Emerald Isle) the last three letters are almost the opposite of empty.
11:21 am
Haz1558
But you can always get it from candy's clue.
11:21 am
phaeton
OK, got it , thanks for all the help, brain still sleeping.
11:22 am
Uniquity
I think that probably qualifies as a PB visit, candycane!

Does Lickety ever have words that don't work?
12:38 pm
stidmama
yes jars, his dictionary is not identical to Dr. god's so he has to do the grid before the posts his list to be sure he has all the right words.
12:38 pm
lynxxx
Lickety uses a later version of Enable than Babble does but he usually goes through and takes those words out
12:39 pm
Jars
I found my mistake.
12:39 pm

1:38 pm

How about potato balls, deb? Peel and cook potatoes... mash with a hand masher, and then beat the heck out of them in the mixer. Add a packet of Good Season's Ranch dressing and some pepper... a little butter and about a tablespoon of flour... or two... it will be stiff. Refrigerate. Wait until the next day: Shape about two tablespoons of cold potato into a football shape and put chopped ham, veggies, cheeses, pepperonies, green peppers... and mixtures...in the little pocket. Seal all fillings inside. Roll in beaten egg, seasoned breadcrumbs, and deep fry or saute in butter until dark brown... serve with pizza sauce or whatever you want.
