THe Starting over is fine,But the trying to get this specific job is stressful, there is a man involved, otherwise I would be just as happy to go to texas, or wherever. I always miss my house, but I settled for a year and the money was terrible, made it hard topay bills.
4:18 am
redturtlehead

frozen here. Just figured out how to avoid paying for having the driveway sanded yet again, or at least postpone it, by leaving cars at the bottom of the driveway/hill and sprinkling ashes from the woodstove down there. The clamp the spikes to the bottom of our boots and slither down to the cars.
6:11 am

6:12 am
Eva
it would cost a fortune herin- and also don't want salt running into our gardens, etc. The sander is great, but we need a fuel delivery on Friday and if I have is sanded today and it snows between now and Friday then I have to have it done again
6:12 am

Have you noticed how hungry the animals are this winter scrabbler? We have owls hunting during the day, and the deer are resorting to pawing the ground under the bird feeder, because the snow cover is so deep and heavy.

I'm just about gaga carlee. I've had it with winter, honest ta' god.
6:16 am
Eva
I feel so bad for the barred owl who is hanging around the house. Next time Merp leaves anything over from his hunting I think I'll put it out as an offering for her. But I don't know if they eat anything that isn't moving. I mean they're not normally carriou eaters are they?
6:17 am
herinfernallady
Eva you could get some dead mice and warm them up to blood point for the Owl
6:17 am
Scrabbler
I am not sure about that, Eva, but it is worth a try.
6:17 am
carleekat
same here... but....the ground hog said early.....holding him to it
6:17 am
rolin
we asked the same thing at the same time
6:17 am
Eva
that was carrion, not carriou (a dead carribou?)
6:17 am
herinfernallady
Most Owls don't eat dead food but thats what we do with the snake
6:17 am
Scrabbler
LOL, imagining recently dead mice being heated in microwave oven
6:18 am
GraceM
ah, but I need the right hand R
6:18 am
carleekat

6:18 am
herinfernallady
Scrabbler thats cooking them. You put them in blood temp warm water
6:18 am
herinfernallady
Then you get chopsticks and play chasie with the mouse around the tank so it looks like it was moving
6:19 am
carleekat
I am a little sl4 this am
6:19 am
lynxxx
lol Eva - I first thought that Merp was good taking down a carribou
6:19 am
Eva
I've thought of it herin.....I had a friend who was a falconer and he had a freezer full of mice, which he would thaw out on the kitchen counter. Then when I volunteered at the zoo the fridge was stocked with things like pinkies (frozen rat babies) . Sorry pink!
6:19 am
Scrabbler
If anyone enters the chat now they will wonder what is going on as we talk about heating up dead mice.
6:20 am

Hi Jai
6:21 am
herinfernallady
Scarlet own a tarantular
6:21 am
Eva
she's a truly magnificent owl. She's watching the bird feeder, but what she's interested in is the rodents, because I think the chickadees are too quick for her, and since the last heavy snow I haven't seen many mice at the feeder.
6:21 am
pinkhatlil
what kind was it herin?
6:22 am

6:22 am
carleekat
i'm not having many words jump out this am....
6:23 am
Eva
The mice and squirrels used to have tunnels running from under some rocks to the tree with the feeder, so they were exposed to danger for the minimum amount of time, but their tunnels are all covered over now.
6:23 am

7:27 am
EspritdJean
he's not a poor man by any means, he has exploited the dysfunctional to great profit
7:27 am
LoriP
Yes Scarlet, for sure. Dr Phil? We'd chew him up, and spit him out. He'd be the one having multiple breakdowns, houndd endlessly by opportunists....
7:27 am
EspritdJean
in case anyone is confused, I think he is a giant butthead
7:27 am
Anniebrook
and, Scarlet, you would fininsh him off
7:28 am
LoriP
And esprit sums it up succunctly and accurately. I concur.
7:28 am
LoriP
*succinctly even
7:28 am
Scarlet
Sure, EJ... but Annie is charged with sending him to Haz's Home for the Bewildered... Oh, Yes Annie! He would be balled up into a fetal position, sucking his thumb and humming Yankee Doodle!!
7:30 am
Anniebrook
and Our Friends on the Other Side of the Pond would know exactly how to handle the poor (Jean, you are right) exploiting fool
7:30 am

Anniebrook
That was for Atalante's dog, Hobbit
8:07 am

8:08 am
Anniebrook
Ata, I would be upset at the kennel owner too..
8:08 am
Atalante
she hasn't been to kennels, but she's been meeting other dogs out on walks. One of them must have had it. grrr.
8:09 am

Did you notice something in Al Fayed's rant yesterday? He DIDN'T blame FM!
8:26 am
Scarlet
FM... you were on call for the toga and glass smashing and you failed your duty!
8:26 am
Vicuna
We saw a bellydancer once, and my husband observed "She looks like she's flowing upwards out of her skirt," which described it very aptly, I thought. A most curious effect.
8:26 am
FMitch
Happy Birthday Peri, Hello Haz, Vi, Ata, Aloy, carlee, Scarlet, Annie and everyone.
8:26 am
Angelsong
fireworks for today.
8:26 am

8:28 am
Scarlet
It was a totally spontaneous party, FM... but yoru services were required!
8:28 am
FMitch
Good lord, now I know I can do a lot of things but pregnancy is one that I CAN'T be blamed for!!
8:28 am
Vicuna
Glass smashing can safely be done with cellulose vessels which dissolve in liquid.
8:28 am
Vicuna
Oh wait, then you can't drink from them.

FMitch
Ah (((peri))) Happy Birthday
8:32 am
Haz1558
And make sure the extinguishers are strategically placed.
8:33 am
Scarlet
Hi, Blur... the princess of the moment! Hi, Eva... grab a toga!
8:33 am
Haz1558
NOT that I mean peri has so many candles that a conflagration is inevitable.
8:33 am

I do Haz. Funny story.......when my son was born I ended up in hospital for three months with DVT. Doctor told me with a very solomn face that I couldn't take the pill any more. I told him that I had news for him.....I was also alergic to rubber. He made a quick exit stiffling his giggles.

Haz1558
Absolutely, Annie.

Atalante

8:42 am
Scarlet
Annie is the epitome of comportment...
8:42 am
Anniebrook
*sits straighter*
8:43 am
Scarlet
**Hands Annie the gold star for posture**
8:43 am
Anniebrook
*beaming*
8:43 am
FMitch

8:43 am
Scarlet
**Sploooch***
8:43 am
periwinkle
I will have some champagne, thanks
8:44 am
AnnieOakley
Good afternoon all
8:44 am
periwinkle
and some ice cream to go with the chocolate cake, thanks
8:44 am
Aloyisius
Annie's mother used to make her walk around with a five pound bag of sugar on her head so that she would have the lovely posture she has now
8:44 am
Anniebrook
Wow, what a party...
8:44 am
Haz1558
Good afternoon AnnieO.
8:44 am
Frances
Cheers FM
8:44 am
Scarlet
Hi, AnnieO... welcome to the blast-off party for peri-s birthday...
8:44 am
Vicuna
Hello, AnnieO.
8:44 am
Aloyisius
Hi AnnieO
8:45 am
Haz1558
She had to abandon the five pound bag of sugar once she took up surveillance work, though.
8:45 am
Scarlet
No wonder she's so sweet, Aloy... she went walking in the rain once... LOL
8:45 am
FMitch
Frances do you want to put your email addy in your bio for me
8:45 am
Anniebrook
Aloy, you knew my mother?
8:45 am
AnnieOakley
It is definitely a fun party - I've brought some jelly
8:45 am
Aloyisius
LOL, Scarlet.. eww, sticky
8:45 am
Scarlet
RIght, Haz... and it slogs her down when she puts on her flying nun costume...
8:45 am
Vicuna
Sleuthing and comportment are occasionally incompatible.
8:45 am
Scarlet
LOL, Vi./..
8:46 am
Anniebrook
Vicuna is correct...flying with 5 pounds of sugar on my head is quite difficult
8:46 am
Haz1558
Absolutely Scarlet. You can't mix a wimple with a sack of sugar.
8:46 am
Frances
Done FM. Thank you.
8:46 am
FMitch
Annie no email in your profile !
8:46 am
Aloyisius
well, I remember when Queen Eliz. was crowned.. we watched and we so admired the Queen's stateliness.. anyway, my mother said the crown weighed five pounds and she related that to the bag of sugar
8:46 am
carleekat
pass me some champers pls...
8:47 am
dcseain
i think a spun-sugar wimple would be lovely, if delicate
8:47 am
Vicuna
Not very austere, though, seain.
8:47 am
FMitch
Got it thanks Frances
8:47 am
Haz1558
The queen still practises with the crown before the opening of Parliament to get used to it.
8:47 am
Scarlet
Haz, now there are words to guide one's life: Do not mix a wimpole with sugar. Heed it well, BabbleLand.
8:47 am
Vicuna
Downright frivolous, in fact.
8:47 am
Frances
Oh James Martin is very good with spun sugar.
8:47 am
dcseain
hello, all.
8:48 am
Anniebrook
FM, going to look at profile and insert email, I thought it was there
8:48 am
dcseain
hi, annie. how are you? Long time no see.
8:48 am
Haz1558
Yes, James could make a sugar nun's costume, no problem.
8:48 am
AnnieOakley
Yes, I agree Vic, and DC it wouldn't be good in the rain!
8:48 am
Haz1558
Hello dc!
8:48 am
dcseain
afternoon, haz!
8:48 am
Vicuna
That must be my problem. My crown weights only two pounds. that's why I lack the proper gravitas.
8:49 am
Haz1558
Get a few more diamonds and rubies on there, Vicuna. You deserve the best.
8:49 am
Atalante
you only have a crown worthy of 10 cent coins
8:49 am
Haz1558
Are you still taking the drugs like I told you, dc?
8:49 am
Aloyisius
yes, Vicuna.. your crown must be heftier
8:49 am
Frances
Vic you could always add some carrots in place of the carats to weigh it down a bit.
8:49 am
Scarlet
Hello, seain... how are you feeling now?
8:49 am
periwinkle
I share my birthday with Justine Bateman, Jeff Daniels and Margaux Hemingway
8:49 am
Haz1558
I wonder how much Jordan's wedding tiara weighed?
8:49 am
dcseain
indeed haz.
8:49 am
Scarlet
LOL, Frances...
8:50 am
FMitch
Proper Crowns have to be at least 12lb in weight
8:50 am
Vicuna
That must be it, Ata. If I rated the one dallar bill no doubt I'd have the five pound crown. Sigh.
8:50 am
Aloyisius
brb.. someone drank my coffee again!
8:50 am
AnnieOakley
I share mine with John McEnroe - that worries me
8:50 am
Haz1558
We care nothing for those other people, peri - it's YOUR day.
8:50 am
dcseain
only marginally better, scarlet.
8:50 am
Haz1558
Seriously FMitch? 12 pounds?
8:50 am
dcseain
i cancelled a lunch today, not going to class tonight, and i'll decide tonight if i'm going to be able to work tomorrow.
8:50 am
Haz1558
That's like carrying a three month old baby on your head.
8:51 am
periwinkle
what is wrong dc?
8:51 am
FMitch
Haven't you weighed your crown recently Haz
8:51 am
Vicuna
I like that idea, Frances! Carrots! And here's today's item of vegetable trivia: Did you know that in the court of Louis XVI the women wore wild carrot flowers (ie Queen Anne's Lace) in their hair?
8:51 am
Haz1558
That wouldn't be a good thing for Annie's surveillance work either.
8:51 am
Anniebrook
FM, email there now..and eagerly awaiting recipe, thanks so much
8:51 am
dcseain
i have Flu strain B, peri, one of 60% not covered in the vaccine this year, and i went to doc too late for tamilfu.
8:52 am
periwinkle
I am wearing my tiara with diamonds and amythysts since it is my BD today
8:52 am
Scarlet
You are wise to limit your activities then, seain... I am really sorry that you haven't turned the corner yet...
8:52 am
dcseain
we used to collect wild carrots and onions for cooking growing up. Took a while to learn which carrots were good for eating.
8:52 am
periwinkle
so sorry to hear that dc, hope you feel better soon
8:52 am
Vicuna
Poor sufferring seain.
8:52 am
Haz1558
So he's pumping himself full of drugs and hanging out with mad women.
8:52 am
FMitch
Annie when you put it in your bio did you click on the update profile bit?
8:52 am
Scarlet
Vi!@ Great piece of trivia!
8:52 am
Anniebrook
Haz, that should cure him quickly or do him in
8:52 am
dcseain
i now have a coughing fit, ty, haz :D
8:53 am
Vicuna
I routinely carried my babies on my head, FM. Doesn't everyone? Of course now that they're 5 it's getting ungainly to carry them both at once...
8:53 am
Anniebrook
FM, I am totally computer illiterate...going back to profile
8:53 am
dcseain
oh, happy bday, peri :D
8:53 am
Frances
Don't make him laugh. Get well soon dc
8:53 am
Haz1558
But you haven't spilled coffee, have you, dc? I specialise in getting people to wreck keyboards and monitors by spraying coffee over them.
8:53 am
Scarlet
Oh, Ata... seain has kennel cough...

We need a sign over the babble door - Enter at your own Peril, may be risk toyour sanity

8:55 am
Vicuna
Hello, Michnick.
8:55 am

Hi Scarlet. Oh, Seain, just went into your profile. T added to Hebrew wds make them feminine, plural is 'im' at the end.

8:55 am
Michnick
Hi. Vic.
8:55 am

LOL, Ata... only the residual fumes from all the alcohol at this party...
8:55 am

8:55 am
periwinkle
going to take a break to shower and get dressed for the day. hold off on the party til I get back, please
8:55 am
Vicuna
Never, Scarlet. I am clean as a whistle and my madness is entirely natural.
8:56 am
Michnick
You speak Hebrew Seain?
8:56 am
Vicuna
Hold off? Peri, it would be an insult to you to curtail the festivities while you're gone!
8:56 am
FMitch
Yay yes you did Annie and now I have it.
8:56 am
Haz1558
Okay, peri. We'll be as serious as we can possibly be until you get back.
8:56 am
periwinkle
okay, bbs
8:56 am
dcseain
a tad, michnick, not much
8:56 am
Haz1558
(If we keep the noise down we can do some stealth partying and she'll be none the wiser)
8:57 am
Frances
Oh no we won't Haz.
8:57 am
FMitch
OK everyone just sit down and be quiet till peri gets back.....
Yea right, like thats going to happen!! PARTYYYYY!!
8:57 am
Haz1558
Not that this is a conspiracy or anything.
8:57 am
Vicuna
Okay. everyone take off your sugar bag hats for better stealth.
8:57 am
Haz1558
But - what about our posture?
8:57 am
Atalante
put on the tin foil hats then peri won't sense the partying
8:58 am
Haz1558
We'll never get up to Annie's posture standards if we take off our sugar bags.
8:58 am
Michnick
Whoever has the apple spice cake recipe, I'd love a copy. I may just make it tonight.
8:58 am
Scarlet
Yeah, riggghhhhhhtttttt FM... I just hired a mirimba band after the zydeco dies down...
8:58 am
Vicuna
Yay! How about tinfoil sugar bags?!
8:58 am
Haz1558
Can I keep my sugar bag on and put the tinfoil hat over it?
8:58 am
Haz1558
Or would that look strange?
8:58 am
Scarlet
I am wearing my jordanesque cheapsuit of tinfoil... so there! Bleah!
8:59 am
Atalante
dont see why not
8:59 am
Michnick
Hey if you guys are really going to party hardy, keep it down, my kiddies are home.

8:59 am
Haz1558
Tut tut, Scarlet. How can you put Jordan and cheap together in one sentence?
8:59 am
Scarlet
I do the same thing, Seain... Dixie Crystals...
8:59 am

carlee, to map again?
9:09 am
dcseain
ooooh, mimonsas and aspriin :)
9:09 am
Haz1558
If so, a tinfoil hat is a good investment. Uniquity makes them and we all wear them, with or without sugar depending on our posture requirements.
9:09 am
Haz1558
re7 - re plus a map or what the doctor writes his notes on
9:10 am

9:16 am
Aloyisius
the O word from the right is a babblet, me thinks... it means "ox"
9:17 am
Atalante
as if. lol
9:17 am
Aloyisius
see, Scarlet? not bad at all... mini wheatols!
9:18 am
Anniebrook

9:18 am
nDanLia
are the tinfoil hats ciming from Foley's influence, or the 1950s?
9:18 am
AnnieOakley
R u sure..have they gone?
9:19 am
Haz1558
I thought the tinfoil hats were modern but what do I know?
9:19 am
Scarlet
Please see Haz's very subtle humor on that subject... I am still laughing...
9:19 am
nDanLia
ugh, rotten old mouse...pb
9:19 am

Frances will email you and Annie now.
9:22 am
nDanLia

nDanLia
hadn't seem them mentioned elsewhere until chipotles game to town [offered free burrito on halloween for anyone with tinfoil on] & then here...
9:24 am
Haz1558
Does peri have enough room for another silly hat? She's already got a five pound bag of sugar and a tinfoil hat there. Or she should have if she's taking her posture seriously.
9:24 am
periwinkle
thanks for the silly hat, Krista
9:24 am
Haz1558
Hello Krista, by the way.
9:25 am
periwinkle
I always take my posture seriously, Haz

Happy Birthday--Go Peri!

Krista
YVW (it's my icon, btw)...hey all..beautiful sunny morning here
9:25 am
Haz1558
And so you should peri. Next year YOU may win the gold award for posture.
9:25 am
Anniebrook
FM, have you sent the recipe? I checked and see no one from Babbleland
9:25 am
AnnieOakley
does the hat look like a mushroom? Peri likes mushrooms
9:26 am
Vicuna
But don't believe any of it -- Wikipedia is part of the conspiracy!
9:26 am
Babs1
any clues for the g words? I have one 4/6...
9:26 am
Haz1558
I don't know - mushrooms are so last year.
9:26 am
Scarlet
Hi, Babs!!
9:26 am
AnnieOakley
Is that the Al Fayed conspiracy???!!!
9:26 am
Scarlet
What is the thrill du jour now, Haz?
9:26 am
nDanLia
happy bithday peri
9:26 am
Haz1558
ge5 and ge6 - French word for type as in film or book
9:27 am
Aloyisius
what ge**** of music do you like, Babs?
9:27 am
Haz1558
Oh, conical hats in honour of Bejing's hosting of the Olympics.
9:27 am
Krista
Babs! I lost the paper with the name of that art therapy book on it. May I have it again, please?
9:27 am
Babs1
thanks, aloy...that qualifies as a fish for me!
9:27 am
Haz1558
Another ge5 changes the vowel on the end of the 'type' word
9:27 am
Scarlet
Ack... don't remind me... the pollution alone will kill all our best athletes...
9:28 am
Aloyisius
whacks Bab gently with a guppy
9:28 am
Babs1
Krista...let me go look...was looking for the book the other day and have hidden it somehow!
9:28 am
Scarlet
Aloy... always so gentle... always!
9:28 am
Vicuna
Aloy! *shocked* There will be no guppy-whacking here! We are a family-friendly site!
9:28 am
Aloyisius
tuff to grasp a guppy though
9:29 am
Anniebrook
aloy, then use a halibut
9:29 am
Babs1
oh just let 'er rip, aloy...don't know about these French words though...hmm...
9:29 am
Aloyisius
well, Vi... Babs asked for it!
9:30 am
Aloyisius
i'm switching to wet noodles
9:30 am
Haz1558
First three letters of an army title, first two letters of the colour that scarlet is a variety of.
9:30 am
Vicuna
Babs! *shocked* There will be no guppy-whacking here! We are a family-friendly site!
9:30 am
Krista
don't go to any trouble, Babs..it can wait..I know it had the word passion in it, and the authors names started with 'c'..thought I could find it with that info, but nope
9:30 am
Haz1558
Vicuna is easily shocked, isn't she?
9:30 am
dcseain
indeed, haz
9:31 am
nancethefan
why under the tile stats r there multiple listings of the same letter such as O?
9:31 am
Vicuna
Haz! *shocked* How could you accuse me of sucha thing?
9:31 am
dcseain
though we do usually pass the fish and allow people to wack themselves.
9:31 am
Haz1558
It's because I'm so MEAN, Vicuna!
9:31 am
dcseain
nance, words are formed from the upper-rightmost tile they can start from
9:31 am
dcseain
upper-leftmost rather
9:31 am
Atalante
because there are multiple Os in the grid
9:31 am
Vicuna
Oh, is that it, Haz?
9:31 am
Scarlet
I am shocked that anyone here could be shocked.
9:32 am
Aloyisius
the tile stats correspond to the grid, nance.. if there are three o's in the grid, there will be 3 O listings in the stats
9:32 am
Krista
seems like someone else is always doing it for me, Seain...saw you in the grid yesterday, btw
9:32 am
AnnieOakley
it's all shocking to me
9:32 am
nancethefan
ok thx all of u
9:32 am
dcseain
hi, krista
9:32 am
Anniebrook
Hazel is the Chief of Police...she will decide upon the degree of whacking or lack thereof
9:32 am
pablo blanco
any help with the b's?
9:32 am
Haz1558
I know, it's not as if Vicuna hasn't been babbling for a while. You'd think she's have learned.
9:32 am
Vicuna
One of the downsides of these metal hats is that they do carry a charge a little too easily.
9:32 am
dcseain
AnnieO, wherebouts are you, if i may ask?
9:32 am
Haz1558
Exactly Annie. WHACK AWAY!
9:32 am
Krista
hey ya..sorry you are still feeling poorly
9:33 am
Scarlet
Well, AnnieO... get your act together, gird your body with saran wrap, and lard in a goodly supply of tinfoil couture..
9:33 am
pablo blanco
I only need one. i have 2 4s and a 5
9:33 am
AnnieOakley
UK - Kent.
9:33 am
AnnieOakley
Haz - did u send the whitecoats to me?
9:33 am
Haz1558
Dear goodness. I just had a flashback to Timmy Mallet shouting 'Whackaday!'. I think I need to lie down.
9:33 am
Frances
Thank you FM. Got the recipe. I cook with gas too.
9:34 am
AnnieOakley
What behind the chair Scarlet?
9:34 am
Babs1
You guys have been partying too much! Can hardly keep up with you...and still working on the g words and finding the book for Krista!
9:34 am
Haz1558
No, Annie. As Chief of Police my powers are limited. Caitlyn is the first aid person. Or you could just blame FM. Everyone else does.
9:34 am
Scarlet
NO Chairs! NO hiding! Take it like a Babbler, AnnieO...
9:34 am
Aloyisius
if you put an L in the front of the babblet that means ox, you get lo5.18 and that means "loose"... h'mm
9:35 am
FMitch
Yay Frances,That was quick :)
9:35 am
AnnieOakley
Did you send the whitecoats FM?
9:35 am
Scarlet
Babs... you're actually doing the grid? What a concept...
9:35 am
Anniebrook
going to look for recipe again
9:35 am
Krista
Peri, do you have special birthday plans (other than the wonderful festivities, here, obviously)?
9:35 am
periwinkle
I forget which babblet means ox :(
9:36 am
Babs1
what grid, scarlet? rofl
9:36 am
nancethefan
lol krista
9:36 am
FMitch
*quietly rolls up in pile of while coats huming Wackaday and hopes no-one notices*
9:36 am
Vicuna
Peri, if it started with d it would mean finding water witha stick.
9:36 am
AnnieOakley
I've girded my body with saran wrap, and larded it in a goodly supply of tinfoil couture..what now? It hasn't helped me find words?
9:36 am
periwinkle
my sister is taking me to lunch today and one of my nieces is taking me out to lunch on Sat
9:36 am
Babs1
Krista!! Life, Paint and Passion by Michell Cassou and Stewart Cubley...rescued from the car...
9:36 am
Aloyisius
ow4.8 means ox, Peri
9:36 am
Babs1
I forgot what a bablet was...uh oh.
9:37 am
AnnieOakley
FM - can u send them away pleeeeez?
9:37 am
periwinkle
ok, thanks Vicuna, have that, didn't know the meaning of the ow8 though
9:37 am
Vicuna
Wait a second! Those weren't REAL white-coat people frightening AnnieO. They were FM and her minions in disguise! Oh what a cruel joke, FM!
9:37 am
AnnieOakley
So I really CAN come out?
9:37 am
Krista
Thanks so much for the trouble, Babs! I appreciate it.....sounds lovely, Peri..I like when birthdays get spread out a bit
9:37 am
Aloyisius
a babblet is a weirdo word that becomes familiar because it appears often in the grid, Babs... so you learn to recognize it..
9:37 am
dcseain
always, annieo!
9:37 am
Scarlet
They've alll run for their lives from my home, Vicuna... exhausted from my slapdown with Doctor Phil...
9:38 am
periwinkle

9:38 am
dcseain
ywis, etwee/etui, ceorl, among others, are bobblets
9:38 am
FMitch
*Haz, Haz where are you .. help me ... come and rescue me.... where are my pretty pink pills?*
9:38 am
Vicuna
Sure, come on out and dance on the lawn in your tinfoil and saran wrap! No one will raise an eyebrow!
9:38 am
AnnieOakley
phew...thank u DC
9:38 am
periwinkle
bobblets, ha ha
9:38 am
Aloyisius

9:38 am
FMitch
bobblets dc??
9:38 am
AnnieOakley
I'm in the garden now Vic, but the neighbours are laughing at me...
9:39 am
Haz1558
Sorry. I was letting the grid interfere with the party.
9:39 am
periwinkle
you must have a fever, dc
9:39 am
dcseain
yes, saw my typo, decided it wasn't worth fixing :)
9:39 am
periwinkle
do most people make martinis with gin or vodka these days?
9:39 am
Vicuna
Just your imagination, AnnieO. Pull that tin foil hat down low and ignore them.
9:39 am
dcseain
today, no, just medicinal haze, which is nearly is good
9:39 am
Babs1
thanks aloy!
9:39 am
Scarlet
Haz... that is so unlike you...
9:40 am
Aloyisius
peri, I think your name should have been in the grid today, I mean, you appear in the grid lots of times and today is your special day...
9:40 am
periwinkle
I think so too, Aloy
9:40 am
Haz1558
I know. I'm deeply ashamed.
9:40 am
FMitch
dc - would that be a purple haze???
9:40 am
periwinkle
close but no cigar, Aloy
9:40 am
dcseain
peri, most use vodka. i prefer gin myself.
9:40 am
Haz1558
In my defence I did find two words.
9:41 am
Scarlet
LOL... FM... A Jimy reference... I love it!!
9:41 am
periwinkle
well, I don't have either here, just wondering what to buy at the wine and spirits store
9:41 am
Scarlet
All of it, peri.
9:41 am
dcseain
well, two meds are red, and one is plue, so yes, a purple haze
9:41 am
periwinkle
haha, Scarlet, don't have much money here
9:42 am
nancethefan
lol scarlet
9:42 am
dcseain
(i did get ur reference, just felt a need to reply literally)
9:42 am
Scarlet
Steal it.
9:42 am
periwinkle
would love to buy champagne but my sister drinks less than me and I can't drink a whole bottle by myself all at one time
9:42 am
FMitch
Miss Scarlet!!!
9:42 am
Vicuna
*passes Haz the smelling salts*
9:43 am
dcseain
peri, Cavas are just a good, and a lot cheaper for the same quality
9:43 am
nancethefan
that's ok - drink as much as u can - that's always a treat
9:43 am
Aloyisius
ok, no more sodden mini wheats for Scarlet... she has had too many..
9:43 am
dcseain
Cavas come from around Barcelona
9:43 am
periwinkle
now, now, Scarlet
9:43 am
Scarlet
Oh.... lost my head for a moment... must be the loaded Mini-Wheats...it's Aloy's fault...
9:43 am
Haz1558
I think I need George Clooney to bring me back to my senses. Could someone fetch him?
9:43 am
periwinkle
Cavas?
9:43 am
dcseain
i'm hungry. i worder if there's any non-soup food i want to eat.
9:43 am
Scarlet
FM has him again, Haz... he is otherwise occupied... something about warm cake...
9:43 am
Vicuna
Sure, Haz. I'll run down to the beach and see if he's wandering mournfully again. Hang on!
9:44 am
FMitch
peri you dont have to drink it all in one go. Once opened return to fridge and pop a teaspoon into the neck of the bottle. It stops it going flat.
9:44 am
Haz1558
I can't recommend dipped Mini-wheats, dc. Not combined with your drugs.
9:44 am
Aloyisius
sure, sure, blame the Aloy.. Scarlet, you are on a Mini Wheat diet from now on
9:44 am
AnnieOakley
Can I share with u Haz?
9:44 am
dcseain
Cava is sparking wine made by methode champaignoise in caves - hence the name - in Catalunya.
9:44 am
FMitch
I have seen George for days, he went walk about throught he was wiith Haz?
9:44 am
dcseain
i have puffed kamut and some flaxen cereal or other. hm.
9:44 am
Haz1558
Sorry, Annie. George is not for sharing although others (pretenders and hangers-on) have tried.
9:44 am
periwinkle
Oh, I will look for some Cavas then sean, thanks
9:45 am
Haz1558
Dear goodness. Can nobody look after that man except me?
9:45 am
FMitch
Some decent Cavas are as good as champagne at a fraction of the costs
9:45 am
periwinkle
FM, really? never heard of that trick.
9:45 am
AnnieOakley
I gues that's why you're head of the police, and I'm a mere mortal...
9:45 am
Vicuna
Okay, Haz, I found him in a lonely cave writing bad poetry. he says he's on his way as soon as he finds a rhyme for "heart."
9:45 am
Scarlet
I am afraid not... Haz, you really must do a better job of reining that man in...
9:45 am
periwinkle
It is called Cavas in the store or is there a brand name I should look for
9:45 am
Haz1558
That's it, Annie. You don't get to this position without a few perks thrown in.
9:46 am
Scarlet
****Snort*** Vi, you have had too many mini-wheats now...
9:46 am
FMitch
Yup, once quaffing is done, put bottle in fridge door and drop soon into neck. et voila!
9:46 am
Frances
Vic it's in the grid. Starts with F
9:46 am
periwinkle
or should I just ask for Spanish Sparkling wine?
9:46 am
Haz1558
Vicuna - tell him ch5/14 - you're high up on my pop ch5/14
9:46 am
Scarlet
Vino! Vino!
9:46 am
AnnieOakley
if you ever dispose or tire of him, remember me...
9:46 am
periwinkle
what about the cork or top to the wine?
9:46 am
Haz1558
Join the queue, Annie, join the queue;.
9:46 am
Vicuna
Yeah, he said that had already been suggested by several babblers, but he was hoping for something a little more expressive of the uplifting passion he felt for Haz. *shrug*
9:47 am
FMitch
Ask them what Cavas they have peri and ask for a recommendation
9:47 am
dcseain
yes, what FMitch said
9:47 am
Vicuna
(I refer to the f- rhyme. Maybe I should tell him the ch- rhyme, though.)
9:47 am
daisy88
good morning, enjoyed the chat the other day so I thought I would join in today,how is everyone?
9:48 am
nancethefan
open it outside - i opened champagne once & the cork flew into the next yard
9:48 am
Haz1558
Vicuna! I'm shocked!
9:48 am
nancethefan
hey daisy
9:48 am
AnnieOakley
hello Daisy
9:48 am
Aloyisius
hi daisy!
9:48 am
daisy88
hi nance, and all, nance did you enjoy the race?
9:48 am
dcseain
peri, loosen the cage, gently remove the cage and cork together, away from your face and things that could break. Easiest to do with your hand over the top of it, wiggling it out gently.
9:48 am
Vicuna
Well, Haz, how many times do I have to tell you not to stick your finger in the electrical outlet!
9:48 am
Anniebrook
FM, just printed the recipe for the apple cake, thanks! are we still having alchol laced mini wheats....gooody, very healthful
9:49 am
AnnieOakley
always twist the bottle, not the cork, slurp
9:49 am
nancethefan
i did daisy & u?
9:49 am
Haz1558
Some day I'll listen to you, Vicuna.
9:49 am
FMitch
peri, make sure bottle is well chilled and then grasp the cork firmly and turn the bottle - no the other way around
9:49 am
Scarlet
Daisy!! Join the party!
9:49 am
nancethefan
now u tell me dc - lol
9:49 am
dcseain
hi, daisy
9:49 am
periwinkle
If I don't drink it all do I just put the spoon in the top without the cork
9:49 am
FMitch
If you are holding the cork and turning the bottle the cork cant fly off anywhere
9:49 am
daisy88
yes the race was a little slow in the beginning but the end is always so exciting no matter who wins
9:50 am
nancethefan
what does a spoon do?
9:50 am
Vicuna
Runs away with a dish, of course, nance!
9:50 am
Scarlet
It dances with the fork before they run to the moon, nance... everyone knows that!
9:50 am
periwinkle
okay, FM
9:50 am
Haz1558
That sppon was never any good.
9:51 am

9:51 am
Vicuna
(Scarlet, I think we'd better compare notes, here. We need to get our story straight.)
9:51 am
Haz1558
I sense a conspiracy!
9:51 am
FMitch
I used to dc, talking about it is as near as I get now.
9:51 am
periwinkle
dc is there any cavas that you would recommend. I like something sweeter than the norm
9:51 am
daisy88
great strategy at the end when kurt busch gave him a nice shove
9:51 am
Scarlet
I have a whopping 68 words found... this has been quite a fun party... LOL, Vi... you are the accurate one... I am the purple haze...
