I went to a real live rock concert - Todd Rundgren - met my sis & her family there. I don't think I've ever been to a rock concert with an actual rock star - bar bands, yes - but not the concert scene. I played in an orch for Moody Blues a few times, and I ushered a Phoebe Snow concert way back when - but this was rock in all its happy ornery-ness. Todd is a character. His band was good esp the bassist. The audience was mostly middle aged, and as much entertainment as the band.

brandy alexanders are a tradition in my family - on the late grandparents' birthdays. My mom made them in a blender with chocolate ice cream. Kind of a DQ Blizzard for grown-ups.

1:29 am
moonwoof
I am listening to stuff on Pandora radio. it's pretty fun.
1:31 am
Douglas
I've heard that Pandora is supposed to be like TiVo for music...yes?
1:32 am
moonwoof
I'm not sure what TiVo is, so I can't speak to that, but it's interesting... It's got a "music genome project" that will adapt to commonalities in the different types of music you like and select stuff accordingly.
1:33 am
moonwoof
Sorry I don't watch TV, tho.
1:33 am
Douglas
I'm surprised that there aren't any politicians here tonight looking for vo5 in the grid
1:34 am
moonwoof
I did also find a bit of serendipity in the grid this evening =) vo5 and sl5.10 and sl5.12...
1:34 am
moonwoof
If slither had been in here it might have been perfect =)
1:36 am
lynxxx
and then there is mi6.21 which could be suitable
1:36 am
moonwoof

1:36 am
moonwoof
i think it was in6 that sent me over the top, tho =)
1:38 am
Ornith

MVA
night ornith!
1:40 am
moonwoof
Ok, I googled Tivo, Douglas and it does sound very similar to Pandoa. Except it sounds like Pandora is more accurate =)
1:40 am
flosey
could I have a clue for le6 please?
1:40 am
MVA
over half way and time for me to go and do other things, bye all!
1:41 am
moonwoof
Cya M, have a good night.

1:41 am
moonwoof
le6 is a short looking version of the lower house of Govt in the US.
1:42 am
flosey
thanks moon
1:42 am
Douglas
And a rather uncommon word...
1:42 am
flosey
yes, sounds incomplete
1:42 am
moonwoof
Oh good, I'm glad it helped... that was a pretty bad clue lol
1:43 am
flosey
worked for me moon
1:45 am
rururocks
mi 6/30?
1:45 am
Douglas
phantom within
1:45 am
moonwoof
mi6= in between + lower appendage
1:45 am
moonwoof
It really IS ruru!
1:46 am
moonwoof
But that's not it =)
1:46 am
rururocks
oh no.........
1:46 am
rururocks
hahahahah
1:47 am
moonwoof
mi6 is about where your knee is.
1:47 am
moonwoof
Assuming you have one, of course.
1:47 am
Douglas
Most people have two...
1:48 am
jillibus
no blank tiles so I can go to bed -- very tired
1:48 am
flosey
could I have a clue for the other mi6 please?
1:48 am
moonwoof
Yes, Douglas... But ruru's special =)
1:48 am
flosey
night jilli, sweet dreams
1:48 am
lynxxx
are you inferring he is legless? (must be the frisky wine)
1:48 am
moonwoof
the other mi6 = to fib inaccurately
1:49 am
moonwoof
I'm inferring that he'd be More frisky if he had 2 lol
1:49 am
flosey
thanks again moon, another strange one
1:49 am
Douglas
Isn't that kind of redundant, to fib inaccurately?
1:50 am
moonwoof
yup. But there were really only 4 or 5 in this grid, so I thought it was a pretty smooth one.
1:50 am
Douglas
And isn't it saying the same thing in two different ways?
1:50 am
moonwoof
I'd say yes. If it werent a clue =)
1:51 am
lynxxx
double negative - does that mean it really means telling the truth?
1:51 am
moonwoof
Altho I havent looked that one up, I would guess it actually refers to losing stuff...
1:51 am
moonwoof
Like I mi******ed my car keys.
1:51 am
Douglas
Well, bother. The profile page says I haven't played any tracks on last.fm recently. Do videos not count?
1:52 am
lynxxx
the best I could discover is that it is actually about telling untruths
1:52 am
moonwoof
Nope. Videos dont count. I noticed that a couple of days ago.
1:53 am
moonwoof
Hmm. I must be improperly communicating about my keys then lol
1:53 am
lynxxx
broke a 100, BBL to finish. Bye for now
1:53 am
moonwoof
Maybe THATs a mi6
1:53 am
moonwoof
Cya Lynxy!

1:54 am
Douglas
Searching for Brian Eno brought up "A Secret Life" from the Byrne/Eno collaboration "My Life In The Bush of Ghosts"
1:55 am
moonwoof
On Last fm? That's pretty cool.
1:55 am

1:58 am
rururocks
si 5/12 clue?
1:58 am
Douglas
The folks at Last.fm seem to be rather fond of Radiohead
1:59 am
moonwoof
si5= "si5 on over here sailor and sit beside me" a la Mae West.
1:59 am
moonwoof
Which is a big reason I'm surprised they had anything as cool as Eno or Byrne, much less together...
2:00 am
rururocks
love ya moon
2:01 am
moonwoof
Now that I think about it, tho, they Did have more than 3 Tom Waits songs...

2:09 am
rururocks
*** RURU calmly takes a low bow******
2:10 am

And you didnt even accidentally let out a Real word! Great job!
2:10 am
rururocks
I made an enourmous effort
2:10 am

Sadly they don't mention the original "4 healthy habits" just drinking...
2:16 am
rururocks
Moon how do you ever stay up so late? what time is it in AZ?
2:16 am
Douglas
PeoÂple who adopt four healthy habits seem to live on avÂerÂage 14 years longÂer than those who adopt none of them, a new study inÂdiÂcates. The habits are not smokÂing, exÂerÂcisÂing, drinkÂing alÂcoÂhol in moderaÂtÂion and eatÂing five servÂings of fruit and vegÂetaÂbles daiÂly.
2:17 am
moonwoof
Quarter after 1, right now. But I dont actually sleep very much at all, ruru. That makes staying up pretty easy.
2:17 am
moonwoof
Ty, Douglas. I totally skimmed right over that. Dern short attetion span =P
2:18 am
moonwoof
14 years is a big difference, tho.
2:18 am
rururocks
What about sex?
2:18 am
rururocks
That is a very healthyhabit
2:18 am
moonwoof
I'd say thats a good healthy habit, too, but it didnt seem to be mentioned lol
2:18 am
rururocks
I would take that over brussel sprouts any day
2:19 am
moonwoof
They also didn't mention showering, ruru, but I think they prolly were trying to Narrow a field of study lol
2:19 am
moonwoof
Yeah but who eats brussel sprouts habitually?
2:20 am
rururocks
Brittney Sears
2:20 am
moonwoof
Oh Very Good example. *I* want to be just Not like that when I uh... get famous and decide to crack on TV.

2:23 am
Douglas
Well, nowadays it might be...
2:23 am
moonwoof
I dont think I'll ever have That problem, thankfully, but my heads wierd... kinda oddly bumpy in back. I'm prolly a phrenologists wet dream.
2:24 am
rururocks

2:24 am
moonwoof
Actually, not anymore, BF. the highway has run over most of now.
2:24 am
bfsog

2:24 am
moonwoof

2:24 am
Douglas
I've had two odd bumps in different spots on my head for a long time, and a ridge in the middle
2:25 am
rururocks
I have had friends shave their head and look great, but I fugure how would you know ?
2:25 am
bfsog
ah right, i like the idea of being so distant from the world, and then to be right in the middle of a horro movie
2:25 am
Douglas
ruru, a phrenologist is someone who claims to be able to discover things about a person's character and abilities by the shape of their head
2:25 am
moonwoof
A phrenologist used to be a doctor who studied your mental health and character by studying and mapping the bumps and ridges of your skull.
2:26 am
rururocks
new one for me.. I heard about a woman in Marin who can tell your future by looking at your naked ass
2:26 am
moonwoof
Did they go away, Douglas? I've only added on to my bump count =P
2:26 am
Douglas
You can tell that phrenology really didn't catch on, as there aren't phrenologists today...it didn't help that it was totally ungrounded in any science whatsoever...
2:27 am
bfsog
my future = flat and slightly hairy, lol
2:27 am

yes, fear. That's exactly right.
3:24 am
sprite
fearrisslavery, I love your nick.
And yes, the tile stats tell you how many words start from that specific tile. They are consistent with the real tiles.
3:24 am
sprite
if you scroll down a little and click on hurshy's icon, you will even find her explanation of the tile stats!
3:24 am

hubby has been home all week with gout. He is an outdoor guy. He grabs every opportunity to have something to do to relieve the boredom, lol.
3:54 am
fearisslavery
gout is freakin PAINFUL, ouch
3:54 am
sprite
oh yes, it is. I had my hubby rolling over the couch in pain and despair the first time... I knew it was BAD. He is never like that.
3:55 am
FranMag
hmm, my hubby will be upset that vette isn't valid
3:55 am
FranMag
when did his gout start sprite?
3:55 am
FranMag
first attack i mean
3:55 am
sprite
I think about 2 years ago, Fran
3:56 am
FranMag
Gil had his first attack over 5 years ago
3:56 am
FranMag
his nephew has had gout since his 20s!!
3:56 am
sgams
I had Gout once, and I surely wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy.....I'm always so concerned it will flare up again!
3:57 am
fearisslavery
107 words to go...too many T's in a row here
3:57 am
sprite
my god, really terrible!
3:57 am
FranMag
eat the right stuff sgams and you should be fine
3:58 am
FranMag
it's very rare in women, but Gil's sister has it in her hand
3:58 am
Xanika
what causes it?
3:58 am
sgams
Ya, seems so, been about 10 years now, they figure it came because I had had a horible infection after having my gallbladder out. And all the anti this and anti thats that gave me
3:58 am
fearisslavery
I take allopurinol for it. that stuff is a life saver
3:59 am
FranMag
it's a build up of uric acid in the joints xanika
3:59 am
Xanika
oh, does sound painful!
3:59 am
fearisslavery
uric acid crystalizes and scrapes at the inside of the joints
3:59 am
FranMag
caused by eating foods with lots of uric acid in them and i believe having a genetic propensity for it also.
4:00 am
sgams
Even a sheet on the swelling makes it hurt Sooooo bad!!
4:01 am
fearisslavery
its also an inability to properly digest purines found in stuff like chicken, or asparagus
4:01 am
sgams
I was told stay away from organ meats, lentils and a few veggies
4:02 am
fearisslavery
yup, sounds right
4:02 am
FranMag
asparagus has a lot of purine in it
4:02 am
sgams
Ticked me off, here I was a young woman, and I had some old mans disease! LOL
4:03 am
fearisslavery
haha
4:04 am
sgams
Oh Great! and here I'm coming up to the first season I'll actually get asparagus in the garden....been waiting 4 years!!! just my luck.
4:04 am
sprite
I will remember that. The asparagus, I mean. That was news for me.
4:06 am
FranMag
sorry sgams!
4:07 am
sprite
aw, I am sorry, sgams.
4:07 am
FranMag
you can probably have a little bit, just don't go crazy with a 5 course asparagus feast or anything.
4:07 am
sgams
hahaha, no worries, guess I'll just have to limit, I just love those little shoots, fresh from the garden, raw, mmmmmm, delish
4:09 am
sgams
Seem to me eggplant was another, those pesky nightshades, okra, tomatoes etc.
4:10 am
FranMag
yeah, when the doctor gave my husband the list of foods high in purine, we were surprised how much of it was "healthy" foods.
4:10 am
fearisslavery
ya, you can have any stuff with purines in small doses
4:11 am
sprite
eggplant, tomatoes? Omg, now I know what triggered this attack!
4:12 am
sgams
Yeah, I was pretty ticked about lentils, Sprtie, what did he eat Eggplant Parmesan or something
4:12 am
sprite
eggplant AND tomatoes in one dish

here's another one, it actually lists the high-purine foods and others that have purine, but should be moderated
4:15 am
FranMag
oh, and for a natural remedy, cherry juice (pure juice, not cocktail) is really really good
4:17 am
fearisslavery
seriously ask your doctor about allopurinol. it totally eliminated my gout symptoms.
4:21 am
Scarlet
Very good morning to you, and sending hugs to all gout battlers... Hi, Fran, sprite, sgams, fearis and anyone I missed! Your poor hubby sprite. :(
4:21 am

Move over for me, kattie... I DID see the video of K walking, finally... and it brought tears to my eyes. How is he doing now? I wish I had obscene amounts of money... get the jet out, scoop you and J up, and my daughter... and go shopping in Spain for two weeks...

gilmore girls... the moment missie gets home..it goes on..we curl up on sofa...sing our brains out on the theme song....and eat loads of pocorn
5:44 am
Scarlet
If it works, then it is a wonderful respite from the beast of dealing with reality... thank God for our children...
5:45 am
carleekat
( drives him NUTS too... )
5:45 am
Scarlet
Of course, there were a few years when I wondered what creature came out of my body... but the teen years are fleet... thank goodness... LOL... nuts is only fair, kat...
5:46 am
carleekat
thankfully so far....no such complaints with missie...my son..there were a few years when i did not like him....

5:48 am
carleekat
hahaha.... I've been here red...just missing u...
5:48 am
Scarlet
Then they are still terrific, sprite. Great years... not all children are difficult... they just start to flex their muscles of independence and it could be a toughie... Oh, kat... I have missed you terribly.
5:48 am
pinkhatlil
im gonna love and leave you lovely people, thank you for all the support you have given me today especially you sprite *hugs* have a fab day everyone!!
5:49 am
carleekat
me too red :( how is beloved feeling?
5:49 am
sprite
Son is very adolescent already, actually. But I love them to grow into independence, so I give them space. And limits. So far it works out ok, mostly.
5:49 am
Scarlet
pink... kick butt, take no prisoners and smile just to drive the meanies nutzo!! {{{love you}}}
5:50 am
sprite
*hugs pink right back*
Hang in there, hun. You are doing terrific, be gentle with yourself!
5:51 am
Scarlet
Beloved is having days and days of spasms and he is also dealing with a respiratory infection... no complaints here, but I rarely get to sit at the computer for very long... I am needed elsewhere to massage his knots and keep his lungs cleared...
5:51 am
carleekat
a gentle squishy hug from me..
5:51 am
pinkhatlil
thank you scarlet and sprite, i REALLY needed to hear that *HUGS* *poof*
5:51 am
carleekat
how about a long soak ina tub with eucalyptus oil?
5:52 am
Scarlet
It is not serious, but I can never take any chances with anything that happens to him... I will, kattie... and he loves it. He can't get into a tub, kat... his mobility is very limited...
5:53 am
carleekat
:( well... a massage with the oil then
5:53 am
Scarlet
I have used Vick's vaporub... and the eucalyptus in that is very effective, short-term.
5:53 am
Scarlet
Stinker! :-)
5:54 am
carleekat
the essential oil is stronger... but does not hace that mentholated chill
5:54 am
Scarlet
And heat... moist heat and the heating pad. One daughter bought a special, flax-seed filled heat wrap that can be warmed in the nuker... very good for him...
5:54 am
carleekat
nice...that works
5:55 am
carleekat
u must have an aromatherapy store there...even WE have one...let me send the link from our store..perhaps if u find a store there....they can have a conflab?
5:56 am
Scarlet
The menthol is (or seems to be) good for him... it's just getting him to rest more... I told him I am not his mama, and I never want to devolve into a nag, so many of his choices have to be smart ones... I put it back where it belongs: on his shoulders.

6:00 am
Scarlet
Okay, kat... when the snow has melted and after the ice is done... we are getting slammed right now with sleet, freezing rain and more snow... unusual for North Carolina, especailly in the mountains...
6:00 am

No, I don't think so, but she miaows unnecessarily loudly when excited.

You are right, Uni... I apologise for putting you under kat's umbrella... she is out of control and YOU are the good daughter...

Hi, red. 154.

TY all.

Exactly. I am glad that Baba Scarlet knows how it REALLY is.

6:12 am

This is one Baba who loves you all in spite of some bad influences from Sarnia...
6:12 am
sprite
not yet, Uniquity. Had to teach yesterday and needed music... burner program refused... found me a new one, burned the cd... burned an extra copy... went downstairs to check if it worked... then, when teaching, the thing refused to play. I am on a stroke of bad luck, apparently. Hubby has a severe gout attack. Nothing big, just very sucky.
6:13 am
carleekat
*** keeping quiet... waiting ***
6:13 am
Scarlet
Uh-oh... when kat gets quiet, all Hades is ready to bust out...
6:13 am
Uniquity
Oh dear Sprite. That really is not much of an improvement. Although, once you get on a streak of bad, it is certainly harder to find the good. I'll start working on the lottery win for you!
6:13 am
sprite
*streak, not stroke, thanks, noted, LOL
6:14 am
Scarlet
I wish I could add some comfort too, sprite...
6:14 am
sprite
oh please do! I'd love that!
6:14 am
Scarlet
When I fire up the jet to get kattie, I'll zip by Holland to scoop you up too, and we'll all hit Spain, Portugal and Cairo...
6:15 am
Uniquity
I think it is appropriate compensation. Although, the gout is a bit of a problem.
6:15 am
sprite
you already do, dear Scarlet. Just by being there for me and being a babble friend. It really helps.
6:15 am
Jacula
Sprite - to say a stroke of bad luck is okay. i.e. That was a stroke of bad luck/I've had a stroke of bad luck. Lots of bad luck is a 'run' of bad luck.
6:15 am
Scarlet
Awwww... {much love to you, spritey}}
6:15 am
sprite
the gout is starting to subside today! No more shiny-red swollen foot, just swollen now.
6:15 am
Jacula
Anyway, forget the English lesson! ((HUGS)) and I hope those bad teenagers are leaving yo alone.
6:16 am
sprite
thanks for telling me, Jac! You know, I really like to learn :)
6:17 am
Jacula
sprite - I'm sure your command of English is fat better than mine of Dutch will ever be!:)
6:17 am

Or even 'far' better!

Went to see 'I Am Legend' for the THIRD time yesterday!!!!!!!
6:19 am
redturtlehead
too scary for me!
6:19 am
Scarlet
movieman!! Good day to you... so good to see you again! I want to see that one, mm... by the way, I was blown away by Mr. Brooks...wowzers.
6:20 am
sprite
woot movie! Please tell me. Someone here said it was very violent. I wanted to know in what ways, what kind of violence and in which parts. But since she stopped talking to me altogether, my questions go unanswered. COuld you please tell me?
6:20 am
Uniquity
I really really liked I am Legend. It was sooooooooo good.
6:21 am
movieman
Next on the agenda is Alien vs. Predator 2, then It's Sweeney Todd
6:21 am
Scarlet
Are you on the naughty step with someone, sprite?
6:21 am
movieman
It's not really that violent sprite, but there ARE a few jump out of your seat moments
6:21 am
Scarlet
Everyone I know who saw Sweeny Todd has just raved about it, mm.
6:22 am
herinfernallady
MOvie you seen AVP2?
6:22 am
movieman
Not yet herin, but I will next week
6:22 am
Uniquity
I can't wait to see Sweeney Todd! I have been looking forward to it since Dec. 21 (the early release date, but not where I was)
6:22 am
sprite
nope, am not. Just refused to got pulled into a discussion. And am now being ignored for daring to have my limits, lol. It's no b** deal anymore, I got so much support that I feel okay over it now and decided to let it go.
6:22 am
Scarlet
Daughter said it was fab... and we are huge Johnny Depp fans...
6:23 am
sprite
movieman: like thriller - frights or more horror - frights?
6:23 am
herinfernallady
I thought it was good but don't get too disappointed
6:23 am
Scarlet
That's the right attitude, sprite... I have been chin-deep with some personalities and simply withdraw from any interaction whatsoever. Healthy for me, frustrating for them.
6:23 am
movieman
Hard to believe Mr. Depp was first seen being swallowed by his bed in A Nightmare on Elm Street
6:23 am
movieman
Thriller frights sprite
6:24 am

then I definitely need to see it, movie! Thanks!~

You know, I am not so thrilled with this grid.
6:24 am

Even preparing for obvious things Sprite, sometimes won't do it. The BF nearly screamed like a girl once cuz he let his guard down.
6:25 am
sprite
thanks Scarlet :)
It hit my sore insecurity spots, but that turned out to be major therapy, lol. I really learned from it.
6:25 am
movieman
It's good to know there's someone out there who has a decent knowledge of the movie world
6:25 am
carleekat
there are SO few actors today that I can stand watching..but johnny depp one of them
6:25 am
Jacula
sprite - There are a couple of trailers for 'I Am Legend' on YouTube. The movie is made from an old sci-fi book (1954) which I think I've read.
6:25 am
herinfernallady
I saw The Sixth Sense and my male friend just jumped i sat there and counted the point of screaming
6:26 am
Scarlet
We make our own therapy and comfort levels, sprite... so rock on! Yes, kat, I agree... he is one amazingly talented actor.
6:26 am
Uniquity
The book is about vampires though, which is interesting. i am waiting for it to be available at the library.
6:26 am
herinfernallady
I Am Legend is a 1954 science fiction novel by Richard Matheson
6:26 am

not many enjoyed the libertine..i liked it...

Made into THe Last Man on Earth and Omega man
6:26 am

Some folks on chat kind of dissed the book, 'tho they love the movie.
6:26 am
sprite
lol Uniquity. Ok, I can handle scares. Just not horror like things, or violence like in Platoon.
6:26 am
Uniquity
Oh Red and Sprite, I got sucked in to a fight on here very quickly once about Philip Pullman. I was so angry I couldn't use chat for a few days. I am too young to control my temper!
6:27 am

Hard to believe Mr. Depp was first seen being swallowed by his bed in A Nightmare on Elm Street nearly a quarter of a century ago

I guess we wouldn't be compatible on movies, sprite... my all time favorites are Apocalypse Now and Braveheart...

I was on the wrong side of religion. Told I am a promotor of evil. Didn't take it kindly.
6:28 am

i love braveheart but hate the ending...didn't need to see him drawn and quartered etc
6:28 am
sprite
huh. Well, I love you for it.
6:29 am
sprite
lol redturtle, don't mind. It happens.
6:29 am
Jacula
I remember being in the cinema watching Stephen King's, 'Carrie'. I'd read the book, so I knew what happened at the end as they stood by her grave. Everyone else in the cinema jumped a foot out of their sears.:))) (And some of the men screamed.) ROFLOL
6:29 am
Uniquity
I have never seen Braveheart...I was way too young when it was released and now it's just a 'classic' of sorts
6:29 am
redturtlehead
Uni, it would be intersting to see you as evil, truely.
6:30 am
carleekat
i liked rob roy more then braveheart....classic romantic...
6:30 am
Uniquity
Oh, you get Haz's opinion on my evil nature! :D
6:30 am
sprite
lol Jac! I loved the book!
6:30 am
sprite
never saw the Carrie movie though.
6:30 am
Uniquity
I liked the Green Mile...that is one of my favorite movies of all time.
6:30 am
redturtlehead
I am woefully behind on any of the chat stuff, because I played for almost a year without chatting...
6:30 am
sprite
yay for the Green Mile.
6:31 am

So you would have been about 7 when Braveheart was first released, uniquity
6:31 am
sprite
redturtle, just jump back in and say what you have to say. You can't be behind... we fill you in on the need-to-know stuff and heck with the rest ;)
6:31 am
Uniquity
Probably not appropriate for a seven year old! I remember my mother covering my eyes at the end of Titanic...
6:31 am
Scarlet
LOL, sprite... ever the pragmatist...
6:32 am

I never saw Titanic... absolutely crawls my skin when Leonardo is onscreen...
6:32 am
movieman
My movie faves include Sin City, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Pan's Labyrinth, Transformers etc
6:32 am

absolutely :D
Why worry about the past if it keeps you from enjoying the now :)
6:32 am
Scarlet
Any Donnie Darko fans out there?
6:32 am
herinfernallady
I saw Titanic 3 times i want the 9 odd hours of my life back
6:32 am

ooh ooh..me too red..i can't stand him..besides..i know the ending..the ship sinks

6:33 am
redturtlehead
I gotta admit, I rarely watch movies, but now with No television, I think I may start.
6:33 am
Scarlet
There you go, kat... ruined the ending for me now if I ever become feebleminded and forget I detest him... LOL
6:33 am
Uniquity
I think my all-time fave is probably still Wayne's World. Have seen it hundreds of times since I was 4 or 5.
6:33 am
carleekat
we OWN a copy of it.... i've NEVER watched it..and have NO intention of EVER watching it
6:33 am
movieman
It's like the ending of Apollo 13.....they make it back to Earth
6:33 am
sprite
I never watched Titanic
6:34 am
Uniquity
Titanic was awful...anyone who hasn't seen it, don't.
6:34 am
herinfernallady
Seen every Leo movie made
6:34 am
movieman
That's the trouble with real life dramas
6:34 am
carleekat
apollo 13 was good tho...
6:34 am
Scarlet
Oh, fooey, mm and kat... you two have ruined my viewing pleasure....
6:34 am
redturtlehead
I liked titanic, but then again, I saw it with a new BF at the time, sooo...
6:34 am
carleekat
and the right stuff was excellent....
6:35 am
Scarlet
I like Tom Hanks in anything...
6:35 am
Jacula
sprite - If you want to watch 'Titanic', watch the 1953 version. It's far sadder and not so long.
6:35 am

Ok im going to bed now

Good NIght Herin, sleep nicely.

good idea, Jac!
6:37 am
Jacula
There's also a 1943 version of 'Titanic' but that was a Nazi propaganda film so I wouldn't bother with that.:(
6:37 am
sprite
and Tom Hanks is a little too sweet to my taste. I like them a little... more evil :D
6:37 am
sprite
nah, no nazi propaganda for me.
6:37 am

I am feeling ravenous this morning... think I'll go pile a bowl full of chili over rice... that should do it!

Spiderman was awful, in comparison to the comics at least
6:42 am

One of the creepiest films I ever saw was Robin Williams' 'One Hour Photo'. It made me squirm.
6:43 am

the last "special effect " movie l liked... was twister... and the effects at the time were state of the art

This Morgellon's causes fibres to come out of the skin, and may be fatal... the CDC cannot identify what the fibres are, and the FBI crime lab cannot make any comparisons to known entities. Great.

6:49 am
sprite
hi BabbleRabble and Scrabbler, good to see you!
6:50 am
sprite
sure you can, hun, no problem!
6:50 am
Scrabbler
Do we have any topics to discuss at this mtg of the nuts?
6:51 am
Uniquity
Well...Morgellons is up right now, but after looking it up, I think it is a bit grisly.
6:51 am
Scrabbler
Perhaps we should discuss what compels us, day after day, to find words, some of which are completely made-up, in a 5x5grid.
6:51 am
Jacula
Hi, Scrabbs.
6:51 am
Scrabbler
Hi jacula
6:51 am
Jacula
I wish I hadn't looked that disease up. I shall panic at every minor skin blemish or itch now!:(
6:52 am
Dorens
what a great question! even if it means messing up our lives, missing appointments, being late to work ( which I might be today)
6:52 am
sprite
argh, thanks for the warning, Jac!
6:52 am
Jacula
Scrabbs - that discussion would take a whole conference of shrinks!
6:52 am

Anyone have any 7s OTHER than the two in7s?

Good morning, Scrabbler and Dorens.
6:54 am
BabbleRabble
as I related some time ago, brain atrophy for those who experience regular hiatuses from reality is a concern. babble slows the invidious consequences of these lapses
6:54 am
Scrabbler
And, Doren, not doing housecleaning.
6:54 am
Scarlet
Good day, BR-r!
6:54 am
Dorens
morning scarlet (tho I'm not really here) . House WHAT?

6:55 am
BabbleRabble
hello, scarlet
6:55 am
Scarlet
Housecleaning? Is that some foreign concept?
6:55 am
Dorens
just found sl7
6:55 am
sprite
can I hug you, BabbleRabble, or would that be too much?
I remember what you told when you started here and I love it that you stick with it. Also love having you around, but I know it is not for fun for you.
6:55 am
Scrabbler
My house will need intensive attention this weekend.
6:55 am
Scarlet
Progressive atrophy obviates the worries about it at all, BR-r///
6:57 am
Scrabbler
BR, I love seeing you here and reading your quotes on your profile. You are a deep-thinking, intelligent person.
6:57 am
BabbleRabble
I am quite curious about the process and am so glad to have found this site
6:57 am
movieman
clues for the bo7 and the mi7 sprite
6:57 am
Dorens
i've read that once the brain knows the path (as in obsesssive repetetive babbling), then it is no longer useful. What holds off atrophy is the brain learning new things (not that I want to do it), so once we've mastered babble, as many of us have, we can't really call it therapeutic, but need to branch out
6:57 am
Dorens
which process is that babble?
6:58 am
Takuma Sato
wha? BR? deep-thinking? that can't be -- he makes puns ;)
6:58 am
sprite
Dorens, I think when you start losing certain uses of the brain, it pays off to practice them often.
6:58 am
Dorens
hi takuma. (he does both)
6:58 am
Scarlet
Hey, Takuma! Good to see you!
6:59 am
Dorens
i will most likely babble till I die, no matter what its effect

hi all..its sooooo nice to be using a fully functioning keyboard
6:59 am
Jacula
Movie - bo7 is a Scottish word for sheds or cottages.
6:59 am
Scarlet
Hi, rolin!
7:00 am
Uniquity
hi Taku, Rolin
7:00 am
BabbleRabble
the process is to try to anticipate and out-maneuver the consequences of what is augured
7:00 am
Dorens
interesting....I will ponder that on my drive to work. Bye all
7:00 am
Scrabbler
Sorry, I got paged by my office---one of our little girls in in the ICU at the children's hospital with a severe asthma flare-up.
7:00 am
Scarlet
But that implies an awareness of what is oncoming, BR... how can that be forestalled?
7:01 am
sprite
sorry, movie, am deep into chat on msn too. bo7 sounds like you and me together as mateys :)
And mi7 is a compound. Center + things you walk with.
7:01 am
Scrabbler
Does anyone ever have this feear: that Babble will be discontinued and we won't get to play or chat?
7:01 am
Jacula
Thanks for the mi6 and 7, sprite.

Some day, Dr G will stop making puzzles...that will be a bad day.
7:01 am
Scarlet
*Gasp, Scrabs* *Falls over on back*
7:02 am
hurshy
it's not hard to make puzzles, the computer generates them.
7:02 am
BabbleRabble
it can't ... except the key for me is making choices hopefully that will mitiligate any negatives
7:02 am
Jacula
Scrabbs - Yes. Though we do have BabAnon, Goodreads, Facebook etc. I'm sure one of use would make a site where we could puzzle and chat.
7:02 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Scarlet, it is a paralyzing thought!
7:02 am
BabbleRabble
mitigate
7:02 am
Scarlet
This seriously has to be more of a stranglehold than heroin...
7:02 am
Uniquity
He will also stop paying the fees which I am sure are associated with this site.
7:02 am
Takuma Sato
this is a pretty fun grid
7:03 am
hurshy
he can always pass it on to a successor
7:03 am
FMitch
Hi all
Apologies can't stop. Uni saw yr convo earlier re I am Legend, I have just finished the book if you like I will post it to you?
7:03 am
Scrabbler
Hurshy, thanks for the reassurance.
7:03 am
Scarlet
That is sensible, BR-r... I think life demands that we deal with mitigating circumstances.
7:03 am
hurshy
if money is an issue he will tell people before just giving up
7:03 am
Takuma Sato
heh, scarlet, it does. more so, even than the boggle sites with new grids every 5 minutes...
7:03 am
Jacula
Hi and 'bye, FM. xx
7:04 am
Scrabbler
Life is full of mitigating circumstances and hurdles.

7:10 am
Scrabbler
I haven't been in a movie theatre in a few yrs--I don't like the environment. I prefer DVDs at home.
7:10 am
sprite
can't you go to theaters now, BabbleRabble, or don't you want to?
7:11 am
Anniebrook
I thought you all had gone on to big and better...Scrabbler I have Amazing Grace. Now I have to get around to watching it
7:11 am
BabbleRabble
nothing prevents me but me
7:11 am

ok, that is good, BabbleRabble :)
Free choice is a great thing.
7:12 am

I still think about it, Annie--I loved learning about William Wilberforce. Make sure you watch the music video on the bonus feature section, of Chris Tomlin singing Amazing Grace. It is just beautiful!

7:14 am
Uniquity
Took bf to I am Legend on his birthday...he left with a HUGE wad of gum stuck to his jeans. Freezing it off didn't work well enough :(
7:14 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Carra, and so many rude people, so much noise, so many distractions.
7:14 am
sprite
hm... I better rephrase my last post then, BabbleRabble. Sorry I misunderstood. Not much of free choice in that.
7:15 am
BabbleRabble
oh, there is to confront or not
7:15 am
Jacula
bo7 (It was me, Scrabbs). Scottish word for shed or cottage. Sounds like 'the two of us +)
7:16 am
Scrabbler
bothofus isn't accepted, LOL
7:16 am
sprite
yup, that is true. But both choices take up much energy and courage.
7:16 am

Mind you, I am not complaining at all
7:50 am

Annie, we had a blizzard last night (unusual here) and it amounted to about four inches... right now it is ice, ice, ice and the tree branches, though beautiful, are getting heavier and more ominous.
7:51 am
Scarlet
Then there is some more snow forecast later in the day... the western part of the state, where we are, is just about shut down. Daughter is home... with work!
7:51 am

Scar, I love the beauty of ice on branches but that can be dangerous...be careful when you go out...we have had no snow yet

Gosh, you said you didn't feel so hot yesterday afternoon, and bingo!, you must have gone into labor right away, JM
8:15 am
NonoNanette
good morning babblers
8:15 am
sprite
Jakes-mum, we are totally proud of you! Great job, hun, and congrats on this beautiful princess Lily. Great name too.
8:15 am
jakes-mum
they tell you both, and i'm old school, I buy my meat at the shop in number of slices instead of grams as cant get used to it
8:15 am
NonoNanette
congrats Jakes-mum and a big welcome to Lily!
8:15 am
Scarlet
Hi, Nono... great videos lately!
8:15 am
Angelsong
hi, all. I'm glad the grid is smaller today. I was offline from late last night until about half an hour ago.
8:15 am
Aloyisius
hi, Nono! brb.. more coffee needed
8:15 am
bbnaz
nono! loved your video yesterday yet again!
8:15 am

jakes-mum: moonwoof says: congratulations and happy to have made you laugh and labour!
8:16 am
Jacula
I'm back... and to good news, I see. Congrats, jales-mum! There's dedication for you - she gave birth last night and she's back to Babbling today.:)
8:16 am
NonoNanette
thanks scarlet!
8:17 am
jakes-mum
lol sprite, thank moonwolf for the help
8:17 am
Jacula
(All we need now is someone Babbling through their final contractions! Just as well I'd had my kids by the time Babble came along 'Cos I might have done just that!)
8:17 am
Scarlet
Look at all of us... like a bunch of proud aunties... cooing and happy-like... LOL
8:18 am
sprite
lol Jac! I bet you would!
8:18 am
sprite
we are, Scarlet. At least, that is how it feels to me, lol.
8:18 am
jakes-mum
I would have done jac, I finished at 5pm last night and the last thing i said was I feel a bit tight in the belly
8:19 am
Scarlet
Then Jac would have set a standard that must be put in the Babbleonian Legend and Lore!
8:19 am
Jacula
LOL, Scarlet.
8:20 am
bbnaz
Jac is in my Babbleonian Legend and Lore!
8:20 am
sprite
Jac is already in mine, btw
8:20 am
Jacula
Really, bb? *blushes*

BTW, can you lot read the card on my icon? It's one I bought years ago but have never sent to anyone because it makes ME giggle every ti4 I read it.
8:22 am
sprite
Jac, I am gonna look now, will take a moment though. Cannot open profiles anymore :(
8:23 am
Jacula
Also, check out the foodscapes pics. URL is i my bio.
8:23 am
Jacula
Sprite - how come?
8:24 am
sprite
and LOLLL @ the pic
8:24 am
sprite
after my windows got reinstalled, it just refuses to open the profiles. Been through every security setting I could think, but nothing works.
8:25 am
jakes-mum
right I am going to have to love u all and leave u as miss lily looks like she may be demanding food in a mo. If haz and or fmitch pop in please could someone let them know she has arrived?
8:25 am
NonoNanette
absolutely jakes-mum
8:25 am
Jacula
That's odd, sprite. I'll have to ask my son if he has an answer when he comes home from work. Is it Windows XP?
8:25 am
NonoNanette
you take care now and enjoy that new bundle of love
8:26 am
Jacula
Will do, jakes-mum. And congrats again!x
8:26 am
sprite
will do, jakes-mum, and enjoy the beautiful girl. Hug jakes from me!
8:26 am
sprite
oh, if you would, please Jac! Yes, it is.
8:26 am
Jacula
Will do, sprite.
8:27 am
sprite
actually, I am under the impression that the profile does open, just not visible. The upper blue bar goes light, like another window is active. But when I minimise babble, there is nothing.
8:27 am
sprite
same with email. My settings should allow me to open links from email. But when I open for instance a YouTube link, all I get is the sound!
8:29 am
Jacula
Sounds like something's failed to install properly, sprite. I've copied what you've said and I'll ask my son about it later.
8:29 am
Jayde287
I've had the same problem before Sprite. It's in the pop-up blocker settings
8:29 am
sprite
wonderful, Jac! I would be so grateful if someone could hlep me solve it!
8:29 am
Jacula
Ah, that's probably it, Jayde!
8:30 am
Jacula
Try that first, sprite.
8:30 am
NonoNanette
sprite is there a pop-up blocker set to on someplace?
8:30 am
Jayde287
The only way I found around it was to set it so that pop-ups are allowed if I hold (I think) Ctrl-X and click on the pic at the same time
8:30 am
sprite
Jayde: I even had the popup-stopper on allowing everything, but no joy :(
8:30 am
Jayde287
Try the Ctrl-X thing
8:30 am
Jayde287
Mine was the same way
8:31 am
sprite
cntrl doesn't do it
8:32 am
Jayde287
One day I was messing with my settings to see if I could get the pop-ups I wanted to work, and somewhere it tells you how to let specific ones work
8:32 am
Jayde287
But that is my home computer and I am at work now.
8:33 am
sprite
ok, I will be sure to look into that again, Jayde and Jac and Nanette. Does IE have its own popup stopper nowadays?
8:35 am
NonoNanette
it might have sprite, I seem to have more than one on my machine
8:35 am
Angelsong
morning, sprite
8:35 am
sprite
and thanks for helping me think! :)
8:35 am
sprite
hey Angel! How are you?
8:36 am
Jayde287
Good luck Sprite, I hope you figure it out. I know how frustrating that can be!
8:36 am
NonoNanette
there could also be a pop up blocker in your antivirus software
8:36 am
sprite
oh yes, it is! Driving me nuts.
8:36 am
Jacula
Let me know if you can't sort it out, sprite. You have my e-mail address.
8:37 am
Angelsong
running late this morning. my isp hiccupped last night, and I was offline until way past my usual time to Babble.
8:37 am
sprite
I use AVG, that is without popup stopper. But I might have one that is inbuilt in IE.
8:37 am
Jacula
(use the Facebook one, sprite.)
8:37 am
m0nm0n
"Slithy" and "tove," eh? Where is Jabberwocky?!
8:37 am

Jac, I don't, am sorry! All got lost in the crash. Could you email me so I have your addy again?
8:38 am
sprite
frustrating, isn't it, m0nm0n
8:38 am
Jacula
Okay Sprite. (Are you still playing Herd a Word on F/B? I've beaten your score!)
8:39 am
m0nm0n
Just need gyre and gimble and we'd be set...
8:39 am
Scarlet
This is a first: I have all 17 M words in the Lickety List, yet the tile stats say I have only 16 of the 17 words... I just re-typed all the words to see if they would transfer and still the 16 glares at me? Suggestions, please?
8:39 am
sprite
yayyyy Jac, good for you! I haven't been able to do a lot of facebook things lately, I either lack time or energy or both :(
8:40 am
sprite
check your list against lickety's and see what is missing? And then refresh?
8:40 am
NonoNanette
scarlet are you using babble expert?
8:40 am
NonoNanette
if so use send words to babble
8:41 am
Jacula
27 left here (which is exactly what I had when I returned). Must get back to work now. BBL for words.
8:41 am
Scarlet
Yes, Nono... I have sent them to Clues... I will send them to Babble now... this is very strange. Never happened to me before.
8:41 am
Jacula
(E-mail's sent, Sprite.)
8:42 am
sprite
bye Jac, have a good time at work! *hugs*
8:42 am
sprite
and thanks!
8:42 am
NonoNanette
bye bye Jacula
8:43 am
Scarlet
I don't know what just happened, Nono, but now my Tile Stats' M is black... good, but weird...
8:43 am
NonoNanette
the send words to babble must have done the trick
8:43 am
Scarlet
Sometimes I key words in too fast when I am on a rip... and then I get red bars all over the place, but this has been a new experience.
8:43 am
sprite
Scarlet, if you have entered a word in the expert that because of a glitch on the server did not catch, this happens
8:44 am
sprite
expert already has the word, so it registers as Already found, and is not entered into babble.
8:44 am
Scarlet
I'll keep that in mind, sprite... so, Babble is only human? What a let-down...
8:44 am
sprite
you either have to retype in the babble box itself, or hit Send words to Babble.
8:46 am
sprite
and fireworks at last

congrats, sprite!!! sorry to leave so abruptly, but my screen went black! I couldn't turn the 'puter off, so I disengaged the battery, let it all cool down and then rebooted.. holding breath.. seems veerry sloow..
8:50 am
Anniebrook
bbnaz, Is there any way I can get to see you video since I do not have babble expert?
8:51 am
Aloyisius
dear Annie... how come you don't have Expert?
8:51 am
KatieMcG
good question annie, I don't use expert and really miss the videos
8:51 am
sprite
oh yuck, Aloy, that is not nice :(
8:52 am
sprite
is Annie on a mac?
8:52 am
Anniebrook
Aloy, I hate to admit this but I know nothing about computers and am terrified of disturbing the status quo
8:52 am
Aloyisius
tis a bit worrisome, sprite.. but so far, so good
8:52 am
KatieMcG
I don't use it because I like working the two lists, strange but true :-)
8:52 am
Aloyisius
if you email Lickety, the process is painless, I assure you, Annie.. simply clicking a link
8:53 am
Anniebrook
aloy, glad you are back
8:53 am
sprite
Annie, you could try expert if you are using windows then. It is really easy. You don't need to install anything.
8:53 am
Aloyisius
me too, Annie! (-:
8:53 am
bbnaz
annie......just back from taking kinney to school. which video?

I just talked to my daughter. My baby grandson (almost 1 year old) had surgery on Monday night for a staph infection on his leg. He's fine, but he had to have a drain inserted.
8:54 am
Scarlet
This must be in the air, Aloy... I just had to reboot too... this is a whacky morning. Yea for sprite on finishing!!
8:55 am
Anniebrook
betsy, I believe it is todays video...someone just post how great it was and I would love to see it
8:55 am
Aloyisius
oh, so sorry, Angel.. sending quick recovery vibes to the wee one..
8:55 am
Scarlet
Oh, Angel... that darned staph is taking its toll... my daughter has a bodywide staph infection too.
8:55 am
KatieMcG
Oh Angel that must have been worrying
8:55 am
Aloyisius
whacky is right, Scarlet! Let's hope for unwhackiness
8:56 am

Yess'um, Aloy... I thought it was the ice build-up.

it's really nasty. no question about it.
8:56 am

no, the horse one, bbnaz
8:56 am

8:56 am
bbnaz
hmmmmm it isn't up yet. annie I will get you a link and e-mail it to you.

Angel and scarlet, >>>>>>good vibes going your way for quick healing to both grandson and daughter
8:57 am
Anniebrook
betsy, thank you so much!
8:57 am
Scarlet
Thank you so much, Annie... seems to be a dark moon lately.
8:57 am
Angelsong
he's doing ok...he hates having anyone touch his leg, though. Bless his heart.
8:57 am
Aloyisius
scarlet, has the infection cleared?
8:58 am
Scarlet
No, Aloy... she was on a very strong regimen of antibiotics for 10 days, then three days after she completed it, the armpit nodules reappeared and they hurt.
8:58 am
Angelsong
I would greatly appreciate prayers for my daughter and her family. She's going through some difficult time. marital issues.
8:58 am
Scarlet
Oh, Angel... that poor little guy... they just can't understand why they hurt...

Scarlet
Done, Angel.

oh, no.. the next step.. a change in antibiotic?
8:59 am

thank God, she was right on top of it, though. she is fiercely protective of those two children.
8:59 am
Anniebrook
angelsong...I pray for help for a few babblers and will add "angel's daughter" to my prayers
8:59 am
Aloyisius
Angel, I also am sending my very best wishes to your daughter's family..
9:00 am
Angelsong
thank you Annie. Her name is Lauren. She has been on Babble under the name "Johnson".
9:00 am
bbnaz
hate antibiotics. docs overdosed my kinney on them when she was a baby as they misdiagnosed constantly her sinusitis for "sinus infections" so now very few of them work for her.
9:00 am
Scarlet
Yes, Aloy, and the sulpha drugs made her so sick... now, another ***cline drug... not tetra, but another.
9:00 am
Anniebrook
betsy, going to look now, thanks!
9:00 am
Scarlet
It will be included in my prayers too, Angel.
9:01 am
Angelsong
You Babblers are the best friends. Thank you so much for listening.

Scarlet
{{{hugs to you and yours, Angel}}}
9:01 am
sprite
Angel, will do. That is tough. And I will pray for the staphed kids too.
9:02 am
Aloyisius
she must feel "washed out", Scarlet.. tell her to keep a positive attitude as best she can.. oral or IV administration?
9:03 am
KatieMcG
I found that when I really needed friends the babble community were fantastic, that's why I would never give up babbling and hope to give support to people on here going through bad times
9:03 am
Scarlet
Thank you, Aloy. Oral. And she continues to work like a madwoman... AND is attending post-graduate night classes to gain her master's in public administration... wheh!
9:03 am
KatieMcG
She is so busy Scarlet, that sounds exhausting without the illness!
9:04 am
Aloyisius
ooh.. she must have some of her mom's spunk! That's a good sign, but haven't the docs told her its ok to slow down and let her immune system benefit from some recharging?
9:04 am
Scarlet
AND she goes to the gym at 6 a.m. to work out before she goes to work! I get exhausted just listening to her schedule... yes, Katie... she is driven.
9:04 am
Scarlet
Sure they have, Aloy... don't you remember how omnipotent you were at 26?
9:04 am
KatieMcG
6 am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh to be that committed

Scarlet
Yeah, right... you and what army are going to tell a 26 year old anything?! LOL
9:05 am
Aloyisius
i hear you...
9:06 am
KatieMcG
I do see your point Scarlet I did everything flat out until about 5 years ago and then realised that I couldn't do everything :-)
9:07 am
Scarlet
Isnt' that a wonderful moment when one realizes that one need not be perfect, katie? LOL... It is sobering and free!
9:08 am
Aloyisius
i was always bullheaded.. hit that wall when i was 42
9:08 am
Scarlet
I hit the wall two years ago when I was the grand old 60... then I caved in a bit to age and gravity.
9:09 am
Scarlet
The realization came at about 45, also...that I could not do everything... such a freeing moment...
9:09 am
Aloyisius
carpe diem !
9:10 am
KatieMcG
I still do a lot (moving house, redecorating, wedding etc!!) but not having to be perfect & cope with everything is a lovely place to be. Can still be extremely driven though!
9:10 am

Right now, it's carpe Ben Gay... LOL
9:10 am
Aloyisius
lol, you are more bullheaded than me?
9:10 am

Let us agree: we are ALL bullheaded in one way or another... not necessarily a bad thing, though.
9:11 am
Aloyisius
no.. got me through some tuff times as we all have seen..
9:11 am
KatieMcG
Definitely not Scarlet. When I split with my expartner he told me in the morning and I returned in the evening to tell him I had bought a house, it was a lovely moment :-)
9:11 am
Scarlet
The very fact that we obsessively grid on a daily basis... and do not stop until finished... that is very telling.
9:12 am

grid, what grid?

Superb survival instincts, katie... that is a wonderful tale! Bravo, Lady... I bow to greatness!

bestsy, the performers are amazing on the videos but I kept thinking of the horse and all the weight he has on his back...I worked for off tracking betting and I heard too many sad tales about race horses so I am a sob sister when it comes to horses. btw, the horses are so wonderful to look at...

I was at a film for a class for a few hours, I think we were opposite of each other!
10:32 am

we were at the hospital about all day yesterday
10:32 am
praise2him
from 11:30 am till 7 last night
10:33 am
Uniquity
Did he take long to come round, or was that just a precaution?
10:33 am
praise2him
surgery was scheduled for 1:30 and he didn't actually go in till 4:30!!
10:33 am
phaeton
Still stuck on the bi6
10:33 am
praise2him
he ended up with 40 stitches
10:33 am

Wow! I guess he left fairly early then. Blood sugar stay good?
10:34 am

yikes!
10:34 am

yes it was 119 when we went in
10:34 am

they weren't really that worried about it tho
10:34 am
praise2him
since he had a local this time
10:35 am
praise2him
he looks like he was beat up severely tho
10:35 am

I am glad it all worked out for you...Is he feeling okay todaY?
10:35 am

yeah he is okay
10:35 am

10:35 am

10:38 am

and I am trying to convince him to wear sunscreen
10:38 am
praise2him
not sure how far that is going to fly tho
10:39 am
Uniquity
I have to wear sunscreen, otherwise I run the risk of getting more moles. I have one on my back which I need to get checked, as it is changing (urg).
10:39 am
praise2him
well he just doesn't like the feel of any kind of lotion or anything on his hands or face

I grew up in a sunscreen friendly age though...there is always that diff. My grandfather has never touched sunscreen and has skin cancer, but he grew up in a time when that wasn't even heard of. He gets them removed if they need to be, and stays out of the sun.
10:41 am
praise2him
well he said he would make sure to wear a hat from now on when he is in the sun
10:41 am
praise2him
he didn't always do that before
10:42 am

10:42 am

1:53 pm
Atalante
its ded. well, its got a fault in its gearbox and will be at the garage till tuesday. luckily, because its an actual fault, its covered by the warranty
1:54 pm
Atalante
and I'm picking up a hire car tomorrow morning to go up to sister's for the weekend. Am totally scared. Its a Mercedes, longer than I'm used to and a bigger engine!
1:54 pm

Haz1558
Is Hobbit going as well or is she still in disgrace after the obstinacy yesterday?
1:57 pm
Haz1558
Obstenaciousness. It should be a new word for the severely hard to shift.
1:57 pm
Atalante
she made up for it today by being very good in the fields
1:57 pm
Haz1558
Oh good girl, Hobbit. She's learned her lesson.
1:57 pm
Atalante
ha. maybe!
1:59 pm
Atalante
I was going to take her with me at the weekend, but muddy feet on hire car mercedes might not be the best plan
2:00 pm
Haz1558
No, perhaps best avoided. Have you ever used any of the special dog towels on the market? The groomers yesterday were recommending them.
2:00 pm
CadFan
May I please have a hint for at least on of the Y's?
2:01 pm
Atalante
I've got a strange fuzzy towel specially for dogs ... but my best towel is a cheapy Wilkinson's towel that wraps Hobbit round adn round!
2:01 pm
Haz1558
Cadfan, ye4 follows the structure of the badger's home (se4/4) and then plural.
2:02 pm
Haz1558
I just wondered - the ones they are talking about claim to absorb quantities of moisture etc.
2:02 pm
Haz1558
You're welcome!
2:03 pm
praise2him
clues for the gi 5/16 and the 6 bleow it please?
2:03 pm
Atalante
yup! thats like the one I've got. I think they are good if you need quick drying and lots of wetness taken up quickly
2:04 pm
Atalante
but they *are* expensive and small, I can't wrap Hobbit in mine, just dry bits of her
2:04 pm
Deeha
second si 6.21 please
2:05 pm
Haz1558
I'm thinking more for the days when she comes back grubby from a walk rather than a full scale bath.
2:06 pm
Haz1558
si6/21 - the companion/counterpart to a metaphor
2:06 pm
Deeha
gi 5.16 gi+ *** Gibson then plural
2:06 pm
Atalante
I keep my uber-towel in the car to sponge off the immediate wetness. Then wrap her up properly at home
2:06 pm

2:07 pm

It's more to keep husband happy. He complains about the smell of wet dog. The irony of him smelling like cows doesn't hit him....
2:07 pm
Deeha
OF COURSE IT IS!!! I looked and looked for that one and just couldnt see it. Many thanks. Fireworks for me
2:07 pm

Congratulations Deeha!
2:07 pm

Yahoo for Deeha!!!
2:07 pm
Deeha
Thanks and goodnight all
2:08 pm
Atalante
looooooool. brat man. I don't think the super towels have much over normal ones that way. I suppose though they are smaller and contain the smell to a smaller area. I don't think they actually de-wet the dog any better though
2:09 pm
Atalante
I mean, de-wet totally. maybe the super towels do it quicker, but not better overall
2:10 pm
Haz1558
I'll have to research among other dog owners to find out what they do - good to hear.
2:11 pm
Atalante
you can get fluffy "sacks" to put dogs in while in the car / after walks etc. those are good! and warm for the dog. but not useful if the dog wants to wander around
2:15 pm
Atalante
ooops, you know you've been playing babble too long when you go "oh poo, I can't have syenite"
2:16 pm
Haz1558
It should be a new spelling.

Haz1558
Look at that Atalante, like a vulture, circling....
2:25 pm

In the nicest possible way, of course. (Rapidly trying to think of a get out clause)

looooooool. I'd rather be a hawk. At least then I wouldn't have to eat carrion
2:26 pm
Haz1558
And they're prettier as well. Poor vultures, they're not the best looking birds, are they?
2:27 pm
Jellen
Speaking of vultures, has anyone read What is the What? by Dave Eggers?
2:27 pm
Atalante
they erally aren't. only outdone by turkeys
2:27 pm
Haz1558
No, Jellen, I haven't.
2:28 pm
Jellen
Just read it for my book discussion group.
2:28 pm
Atalante
no, nor me
2:28 pm
Haz1558
I take it vultures featue?
2:29 pm
Haz1558
feature, that should be.
2:29 pm
Jellen
It's about the Lost Boys of the southern Sudan, and their walks to Ethiopia and Kenya.
2:29 pm
Jellen
Vultures sadly do play their natural part.
2:30 pm
Atalante
that's what they do ...
2:30 pm
Haz1558
But they do a good job of clearing up a carcass.
2:30 pm
Atalante
they sure do!
2:30 pm
Atalante
I'd love to have an air burial
2:31 pm
Haz1558
You'll need to explain.
2:31 pm
Jellen
Air burial?
2:32 pm
Atalante
its a Himalayan thing. when people die, they get put on big stone slabs and let the birds clean up. then they take the bones somewhere
2:32 pm
Jellen
Don't they do that in India as well?
2:32 pm
Atalante
yes, probably!
2:33 pm
Haz1558
A kind of speeded up process?
2:33 pm
Atalante
a "going back to the world" thing, I think. letting the body be used by the natural world
2:33 pm
Haz1558
I don't think it would work over here. The birds would stand about wondering what to do.
2:34 pm
Atalante
even pigeons might be confused
2:35 pm
Jellen
Rather like my cats would be if the ever actually caught a mouse.
2:35 pm
Haz1558
They're used to bite size portions on bird tables.
2:35 pm
Jellen
*they ever
2:39 pm
Jellen
I want the word register.
2:40 pm
Jellen
and remiss
2:41 pm
Haz1558
You do have a similar word, though?
2:42 pm
Jellen
Yes, I just found it, thanks.
2:42 pm
Haz1558
That's fine, then.
2:43 pm
Jellen
Found all the re's. Yeah! Don't know why they're so problematic for me.
2:45 pm
Haz1558
There's more than you who dislikes re words. Not too many of them today, at least.
2:46 pm
Jellen
It's a comfort to know I'm not alone.
2:47 pm
Haz1558
I think there may be a support group somewhere!
2:47 pm
jillibus
You're not alone, jellen. And hello all
2:47 pm

Shall we blame re words on FMitch?
2:50 pm
Haz1558
Of course.
2:50 pm
Jellen
I've never blamed anything on FMitch before.
2:51 pm
weegee
Hi everybody! Just heading home, have 60 words left. See you all later.
2:51 pm
Haz1558
Oh but you must. It's what she's there for.
2:51 pm
Haz1558
See you later, weegee.
2:51 pm
Atalante

2:51 pm
jillibus
hello weegee. I have 81 left :(
2:52 pm
Jellen
Hi, weegee
2:53 pm
jillibus
see, it's her fault that "toves" isn't a word. Everyone knows about those slithy toves.
2:53 pm
Haz1558
You've got it, jillibus.
2:55 pm
Haz1558
And time I was away. Keep blaming FMitch! See you tomorrow.
2:55 pm
jillibus
slithy is in the grid too
2:55 pm

3:47 pm
Dorens
this is true esprit.....I just finished looking at pictures of houses at Martha's Vineyard for rental this summer and the beaches there are pristine... what I'd rather envision when i think ocean
3:47 pm
Atalante
it's awful, but its survivable, if we stop emptying crap into the seas. However, we won't
3:47 pm
EspritdJean
