12:40 am

dcseain

ah, so i'm not alone, ty, mar, that actually makes me feel a tad better :)

12:40 am

flosey

well thankful for that dc

12:40 am

Just1Mar

must be an international thing :(

12:40 am

flosey

have never had ear infection but sounds painful

12:40 am

dcseain

indeed, flosey, at least i have some nergy.

12:40 am

Just1Mar

sometimes the patient knows more than the docs

12:40 am

dcseain

as an adult, not nearly as painful as when i was young, but yes.

12:40 am

SamanthaJoy

flosey, I'm near tears of pain just thinking about it

12:41 am

dcseain

sometimes, but not always.

12:41 am

jillibus

I hear there's a lot of the real flu in the US -- a strain that escaped the vaccine

12:41 am

Just1Mar

no, but here are 2 instances :(

12:41 am

flosey

sure, it happens

12:41 am

dcseain

yes, jilli, influenza Strain B

12:41 am

SamanthaJoy

Yes, it has gone around 'bout everyone I know, but we're all young and healthy, so it's more of an inconvenience than anything else

12:41 am

Just1Mar

my niece in Woodstock Ont, has it and had flu shot

12:42 am

jillibus

I know about earaches -- age 5 had scarlet fever, went to the ears -- no antibiotics back then so had 5 mastoid operations

12:42 am

Just1Mar

hmmm Sam......what's young? lol

12:42 am

SamanthaJoy

We're mostly in our thirties. At today's life expectancy we haven't even hit midlife yet

12:43 am

dcseain

how awful, jill, that must have been

12:43 am

Just1Mar

well many here right now have passed that decade decades ago lol

12:43 am

jillibus

old is 15 years older than you are

12:43 am

flosey

sounds very painful jilli

12:43 am

SamanthaJoy

Yepyepyep. I'm young. And lucky.

12:43 am

Just1Mar

lol jilli

12:43 am

flosey

it's amazing how 'old age' keeps getting older eh jilli

12:43 am

dcseain

hm. i don't perceive 52 as old, though i see the point, jill

12:44 am

Just1Mar

ohhh you'll get there too Sam so enjoy......goes by very quickly

12:44 am

dcseain

of course, much of my family lives intho their 90s or so. My personal goal is 105.5

12:44 am

SamanthaJoy

I'm old enough to be sleepy at this time of night. Time for bed. G'night all.

12:44 am

dcseain

g'night, samantha

12:45 am

Just1Mar

12:45 am

jesdraggon

12:45 am

flosey

goodnight sam, sweet dreams

12:45 am

jesdraggon

grah. i can make many words with these letters--but i have to rearrange the letters to do so!

12:45 am

jillibus

It was no fun and my parents were really worried, they told me later. One op went near the trigeminal nerve and they anxiously watched me wake up because it might have left me with half a paralysed face. My mother said they were never so glad to see me cry because I did it with both sides

12:45 am

Just1Mar

yes so NEED to flip board around

12:46 am

jillibus

night sam!

12:46 am

flosey

wow jilli, what a relief for your parents

12:46 am

dcseain

i can imagine what a relief that must have been for them.

12:46 am

Just1Mar

wow jilli...it's been a helluva ride so far, eh? so many advances during your lifetime and so much more to come too!

12:46 am

jillibus

got that it7 at last!

12:47 am

dcseain

go, jilli!

12:47 am

flosey

have never seen it spelled that way

12:47 am

dcseain

british spelling, flosey

12:47 am

dcseain

we in NA kept the Z, in Britain it changed.

12:47 am

flosey

oh, thanks dc

12:47 am

Just1Mar

british? thought American.

12:48 am

jillibus

flosey, that's Brit spelling -- lots of words with that ending spelt that way

12:48 am

dcseain

no, we use the Z in those endings

12:48 am

dart001

lol i thought brit/canadian

12:48 am

Just1Mar

oh we keep the zed here too

12:48 am

jesdraggon

heh. the lack of z totally gave me that word

12:48 am

jesdraggon

thanks

12:48 am

jillibus

canadian is a mishmash

12:48 am

dcseain

lol jes

12:48 am

flosey

lol, sure is

12:49 am

jesdraggon

i know. i key in on bizarre things.

12:49 am

jillibus

I don't use the zed in such words.

12:49 am

Just1Mar

yes maybe so jilli but my formal education taught me z only so I miss many words cause of that

12:49 am

dcseain

yes, but you're from britain originally

12:49 am

GroovyKiwi

lol ---- scrolling back at chat - the brits had the right way of spelling first dc lolol

12:49 am

dart001

there is a -our spelling on the board....maybe should start looking for colour and favour etc :)

12:49 am

jillibus

yes, dc, and a bit stubborn

12:50 am

Just1Mar

lol dc.....without the u I'm lost

12:50 am

GroovyKiwi

nothing wrong with having some british blood in ya lol

12:51 am

dart001

ive got 1 8 letter...any more....or any longer than that?

12:51 am

dcseain

a friend of mine who grew up in England, and started programming at 9, used to get in trouble for writing color instead of colour. Tells you how much time he spent coding. LOL

12:51 am

jesdraggon

i am just not seeing long words tonight.

12:51 am

jesdraggon

12:51 am

jillibus

well, actually I'm bi(tri?)lingual -- had US education too so when in Rome had to do as the Romans did

12:52 am

GroovyKiwi

ive just managed to hit halfway

12:52 am

dcseain

due to working for many multinational companies, my spelling at this point is a blend, a sort of 'international' english.

12:52 am

GroovyKiwi

so dont expect miracles from me tonite lol

12:52 am

jesdraggon

stalled out at 83

12:52 am

justafreep

12:53 am

jillibus

good for you, kiwi -- I blab too much

12:53 am

dcseain

12:53 am

flosey

perhaps bedtime

12:53 am

Just1Mar

so you yanks ( I know I know but we say it for the whole 50) use the zed, err zee instead of the S?

12:53 am

GroovyKiwi

tho i do have all the corners done lol

12:53 am

jillibus

I've noticed that, dc and find it charming

12:53 am

dcseain

yes, just, we do

12:53 am

jesdraggon

the w's were not bad, dc. i'm missing a q still though

12:54 am

Just1Mar

oh my at 94 and late flip but I dead in my tracks right about now

12:54 am

dcseain

GroovyKiwi

12:55 am

herinfernallady

Heo

12:55 am

dcseain

kinda sorta, great-grandpa was a german jew who spoke french, who moved to Montreal to learn english from the anglophone jewish community.

12:55 am

herinfernallady

Hello even Dratted L got stuck

12:55 am

dart001

heo herin

12:55 am

Just1Mar

sorry dart .....I have only 2 7's lol

12:55 am

GroovyKiwi

hiya herin happy babbling

12:56 am

dcseain

mom's mom's mom's mom was from Paris, from which i got some songs and mirepoix

12:56 am

Just1Mar

oh so you are jewish still?

12:56 am

jillibus

so you've read Mordecai Richler, dc?

12:56 am

justafreep

i've got those 7s, too, dart.

12:56 am

dcseain

i can understand quebecois, but i don't speak very well.

12:56 am

Just1Mar

err still part of the mishbucha?

12:56 am

dcseain

long ago, jill, yes.

12:57 am

Just1Mar

quebecois is to French what Southern USA English is to the Queen's English lol

12:57 am

dcseain

no, jewish/catholic/lutheran on mom's side, native american on dad's. sister and i both came out with the native american, but bits of jewish and xian traditions, like pesach, shiva, and xmas. we're both Unitarian Universalists at this point, too.

12:58 am

herinfernallady

Hello back. I have the Eye of Bast for Mr Pres. There will be Bastet Icons for her till she returns home

12:58 am

Just1Mar

but that's the way it should be...language that is constantly evolving

12:58 am

dcseain

yes, just. i remember at 18 having the epiphany that the French English, Spanish and Portuguese of the Americas resemble each other more than we do our European cousins linquistically.

12:59 am

dcseain

Southern English resembels Scots and Irish English

12:59 am

Just1Mar

for sure and wow what an identity tree dc......wonderful!

12:59 am

herinfernallady

DC you on yahooo?

12:59 am

dcseain

I can understand people from Aberdeen with little difficulty

12:59 am

jillibus

Some Quebec joual is derived from old Norman, I think.

12:59 am

dcseain

yes, lady, i am, and aim and googletalk

12:59 am

dcseain

oh, that would explain a lot, jill :)

1:00 am

Just1Mar

it's still spoken here Jilli but not by many......they are dying off and the younger generation is quite sophisticated

1:00 am

herinfernallady

Ok ill tell you something there

1:01 am

dcseain

at work, we support people all across US, Canada, and Mexico. People under 40 in Quebec have much better english than most of those older than that.

1:02 am

Just1Mar

yes for sure because the world has become much more globalized and they have tapped into that and understand that

1:02 am

jillibus

just, I think joual still flourishes in places like Tadoussac where my hubby's family has summer places.

1:02 am

dcseain

oddy, in Mexico, even along border, not as much English spoken. Part of that is sounds of Spanish and English much farther apart than French and English, i think.

1:03 am

Just1Mar

yes it probably does but it is dying out

1:03 am

jillibus

of course, even in the Quebec hinterland there is now TV and radio where better French is spoken.

1:04 am

dcseain

when i was young, we could only get TV from Quebec where my family's summer place is in NY.

1:04 am

Just1Mar

I think that the internet with regards to the younger generations has helped that along

1:04 am

dcseain

i used to watch my cartoons in French while i was there. I think that's part of why i comprehend better than i speak.

1:04 am

dcseain

indeed, just

1:05 am

Just1Mar

but there were local english stations too ...the CBC in both languages and depending on your age..ctv....

1:05 am

dcseain

this was in the 70s

1:05 am

Just1Mar

where was your summer place dc?

1:06 am

jillibus

but still -- tabarouette, câlinne-de-binne, etc...

1:06 am

Just1Mar

CTV was in place for sure at that time

1:06 am

herinfernallady

OH i got the 8 no help woot

1:06 am

dcseain

one in Dundalk, one up near Plattsburgh

1:06 am

Just1Mar

lol jilli

1:06 am

dcseain

go, lady!

1:06 am

jillibus

No English stations anywhere near Tadoussac

1:06 am

Just1Mar

Plattsburgh I know well but never heard of Dundalk

1:07 am

dcseain

Dundalk is in Wetern NY, below Buffalo, in Chautauqua County, on Lake Erie

1:07 am

Just1Mar

oh ok that's why then lol

1:07 am

jillibus

good for you, herin -- I still need it

1:08 am

Just1Mar

1:08 am

herinfernallady

Hi Everyone!

VolleymomDee

ty dc

1:38 am

jillibus

hi marmar

1:38 am

the babblers can be found at Babblers Worldwide. Easiest is when another babbler invites you to the real fun games, I think.

1:38 am

dcseain

Guten Morgen, Marmar!

1:39 am

herinfernallady

HI Marmar

1:39 am

sprite

hi Marmar

1:39 am

1:40 am

Just1Mar

1:42 am

1:43 am

jillibus

1:45 am

herinfernallady

1:45 am

carra

herinfernallady

HI Carra

1:45 am

carra

Hi Herin!

1:46 am

Just1Mar

Hiya carra

1:46 am

dcseain

1:46 am

dcseain

hi, carra!

1:46 am

Marmar

Carra Mia! Good morning (is it morning for you?)

1:46 am

sprite

not for me, lady. The only thing that helps when I have a bad headache is coffee. And I am not an addict nor have I ever been... 2 cups a day is max for me and most days I don't reach that amount at all.

1:46 am

carra

Im done with this winter weather! I feel "blah" not motivated to do much

1:46 am

carra

Hi Justmar, DC, Marmar.. ( early early morning... 247am)

1:46 am

sprite

lol dc! I remembered because there was a difference between sean and seain.

1:46 am

carra

Hi Sprite!

1:47 am

herinfernallady

1:47 am

dcseain

1:47 am

jillibus

yaaawwwn -- thinking about bed

1:47 am

Marmar

Isn't it funny DC, what we know, and more, what we don't know about our ancestors!

1:47 am

dcseain

caffeine helps with headaches

1:47 am

Just1Mar

same time here carra

1:47 am

Just1Mar

still think it's evening tho

1:48 am

dcseain

indeed, marmar :) though once we learned that, we could finde the words we knew in the Welesh dictionaries, which we never could in the Irish ones. LOL

1:48 am

sprite

for you too, dc? I always feel like a freak, but it is the only thing that helps.

1:48 am

Just1Mar

so needing lickety at this point 45 left and basically toast

1:48 am

herinfernallady

JIll i love your icon story. 2000 was a leap year cause it was divisible by 4

1:48 am

carra

I took a nap.. fell asleep watching tv lol at 6 woke up at little before 8 . Which I really didnt want to do but just happened

1:49 am

Marmar

the pieces fell together in a way then! My families heritage on my dad's side is a little murky but some family members are working on it and finding some intersting stuff.

1:49 am

sprite

I think you needed it, carra

1:49 am

dcseain

i take excedrin from my migranes, 250mg aspirin, 250mg acetominophin, an 65mg caffeine

1:49 am

jillibus

herin, 2000 was NOT a leap year because it was divisible by 400!

1:49 am

herinfernallady

ok

1:49 am

carra

I think its just this weather.. its always gloomy

1:49 am

herinfernallady

That was something i read.

1:50 am

dcseain

no, will was a leap year because divisible by 400

1:50 am

sprite

2000 was a leap year because it was divisible by 400, not 4.

1:50 am

Just1Mar

anyone feel like cluing the w from the top left....I do have the wi 4,8

1:50 am

herinfernallady

Ok so my math sucks

herinfernallady

1:51 am

Marmar

TY Lady

1:51 am

herinfernallady

I failed Basic Math. I don't even know my times tables due to moving

1:51 am

jillibus

2000 WAS a leap year, that's right -- sorry (tired)

1:51 am

Just1Mar

ty herein (says red faced) lol

1:51 am

Marmar

Pretty icon photo 1Mar.

1:52 am

Just1Mar

Oh thx marmar!

1:52 am

herinfernallady

Thats ok

1:52 am

dcseain

yes, marmar, my uncle found that 500 years ago, dad's dad's people patrilinerally were jews from friesland who moved to East Anglia; 250 years later, my line came to Virginia, then later Ohio, then back to Virginia.

1:52 am

Marmar

Ah, Lady, there is hope! If you have children, you can learn along with them. I am learning and re-learning volumes daily!

1:52 am

sprite

if every year divisible by 4 was a leap years, we would have a minor difference over the ages. That is why they decided to correct it by excluding the full centuries, unless they were divisible by 400.

1:53 am

sprite

yay dc, so you have dutch roots :)

1:53 am

Just1Mar

that's so trued marmar

1:53 am

jillibus

1:58 am

VolleymomDee

2:04 am

sprite

2:04 am

Jandy

Clog - pertaining to the fine Dutch people - Wog - atrocious Australian term for foreigner

2:05 am

Just1Mar

lolol

2:05 am

Marmar

It's so nice to listen to Dutch when you speak English and German, it's kind of like stepping stone between the two sometimes. Other times, I drown in confusion!

2:05 am

herinfernallady

Shortened from Western Oriental Gentleman.

2:05 am

sprite

*giggles at clogwog*
Sounds like Klukkluk, from Pipo de clown.

2:05 am

Jandy

Just1Mar

2:32 am

sprite

am close to finishing. Want me to put a stats list on Babanon after finishing?

2:32 am

Marmar

That same day I read something about St. Peter Damian, an Italian bishop who had a horrendous childhood and yet became a most generous man: here's his thought on human suffering: "Personal experiences of suffering should make us sympathetic to others in need; St. Peter's difficult childhood made him particularly mindful of the poor and lowly." THAT's exactly what you exhibit to others!

2:32 am

VolleymomDee

would you please sprite

2:32 am

VolleymomDee

Andree

2:40 am

Marmar

2:40 am

herinfernallady

Ata your cat is really into getting that tinse

2:40 am

sprite

am looking forward to it, Andree. Seems to me the best part of kids... ;)

2:40 am

Jandy

Ata, one of my sons is a graphic designer who has some pics on deviantart... it's a great site.

2:41 am

Marmar

Andree

2:43 am

Jandy

If there are currently any pics of him making ridiculous faces, ata, it was nothing to do with his upbringing. Really.

4:17 am

herinfernallady

Oh no that is very annoying

4:17 am

herinfernallady

I am sharing a very small space with the kitty

4:17 am

westford

does she want some of your dinner

4:18 am

herinfernallady

I have had it

4:18 am

westford

the annoying part is it hadn't evaporated must have been there for years

4:18 am

herinfernallady

She wanted to sit in the warmth of my seat so i let her

4:19 am

herinfernallady

Oh dear west

4:19 am

4:19 am

westford

4:20 am

herinfernallady

Oh wow that is old and good for the kitty

4:20 am

4:20 am

westford

4:20 am

herinfernallady

Oh wow. Pretty. Thanks

4:21 am

herinfernallady

4:21 am

Disney ( that was his name ) had one blue eye and one green eye he was such a handsome boy

4:21 am

herinfernallady

Pretty

4:21 am

westford

the cat in the picture is KC he found us

4:22 am

herinfernallady

KC is pretty and fluffy

4:22 am

westford

he is such a doll

4:22 am

herinfernallady

I think the kitty wanted to be scritched

4:22 am

westford

jenny hates him of course

4:23 am

westford

have you seen the video of Nora the piano playing cat?

4:23 am

westford

you'd love it I believe it's on Utube

4:25 am

herinfernallady

zYEs i ahve

4:25 am

herinfernallady

Why do kittys have to squish themselves into the smallest space. I do feel privileged that she wants to sit with me

4:25 am

westford

she has such a great personality reminds me of your cat

4:26 am

westford

how old is she looks pretty young

4:26 am

herinfernallady

Shes about a year we think. She was found as a palm sized ball of fluff

4:27 am

westford

like KC

4:27 am

westford

will you have trouble getting a new place with a pet?

4:28 am

herinfernallady

They no nothing about the kitty

4:29 am

westford

easier to sneak in a cat than a big dog

4:29 am

westford

I could never understand people who won't allow pets they are part of the family

4:32 am

herinfernallady

People think that pets are destructive have you seen the damage little kids can do?

4:33 am

westford

yes, first hand lol

4:33 am

westford

pets and kids are as good as the people who raise them

4:33 am

herinfernallady

I didn't get the place i wanted due to the fact that we are too young

4:34 am

westford

oh that's too bad

4:34 am

westford

how can they discriminate like that

4:34 am

westford

so you'll get a place you'll like even better

4:35 am

herinfernallady

Cause we will trash the place obviously

4:35 am

westford

that's just not fair

4:36 am

westford

they would probably have been terrible landlords then

4:36 am

westford

do you have security deposits?

4:37 am

herinfernallady

Yes

4:38 am

herinfernallady

We have everything sorted

4:38 am

westford

no I meant do you have to pay one when you rent

4:39 am

westford

so if there is any damage they take it out of that

4:39 am

herinfernallady

Yes there is one month bond and one month rent in advance

4:40 am

westford

pretty much the same here

4:40 am

westford

very expensive to move

4:41 am

westford

don't you like where you are now?

4:42 am

herinfernallady

Sorry i had to refresh. I am hopping to stay in this area but right at this moment in time its a case of take anything

4:43 am

westford

well the good thing is you've cleaned out a lot of junk

4:43 am

westford

so you'll start with a clean slate

4:43 am

herinfernallady

I did

4:43 am

westford

I'm very proud of you

4:43 am

herinfernallady

I did indeed. I just cant believe how much we are searching for a place.

4:44 am

westford

have you gone to an agency or are you doing it on your own

4:47 am

herinfernallady

There isn't anyone here to help unless you are already renting through an agent. But we are privately renting

4:48 am

westford

I wish you all the luck in the world you deserve to have the place you want

4:48 am

westford

6:25 am

Scrabbler

And it is only 5 degrees F here so I am wondering whether to cross-country ski this afternoon??

6:25 am

redturtlehead

Well, then being a nurse would be easy, very very little math involved beyond Basic 7th grade algebra., really.

6:27 am

Scrabbler

RTH---maybe he will keep thinking about it.

6:27 am

Book Doctor Gwen

6:34 am

herinfernallady

6:34 am

nancethefan

lol

6:35 am

nancethefan

declawed?

6:35 am

herinfernallady

GOD no that is so cruel

6:35 am

carleekat

( i agree herin)

6:35 am

nancethefan

it is - i had i done once but never again

6:35 am

Scrabbler

Silly cat! Bunny Sebastian jumps on me during the night, especially if I try to sleep in.

6:35 am

herinfernallady

No she flew about half an inch from my head

6:35 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yesterday I excavated the closet to get to the door to get to the furance to get to the filter to change it. landlord never changes it. it had pretty much a solid layer of paper-like crud on it. yuck! thinking i should mail it to landlord anonymously

6:36 am

nancethefan

i heard they break their little toes

6:36 am

carleekat

they cut off the END of their toes

6:36 am

herinfernallady

ewww and that is bad

6:36 am

carleekat

take off first knuckle

6:36 am

herinfernallady

You can buy Soft Paws for kitties now

6:36 am

herinfernallady

I like that idea book

6:37 am

lori ann

I

6:37 am

Book Doctor Gwen

thanks, infernal 8-)

6:37 am

Atalante

or you can just say I have a cat. Cats have claws. Therefore I must deal with scratching if I want a cat

6:37 am

Scrabbler

Yuck, BDG--that should be changed monthly---it will make the furnace more efficient too---lower cost.

6:38 am

carleekat

u train them not to... water guns as a kitten..and a good scratching post

6:38 am

lori ann

woops...had to take a phone call...and was in the wrong box to type. LOL at least I didn't type a word in this time!!!

6:38 am

Book Doctor Gwen

scrabbler, yep, the new filter i bought is a monthly filter. i don't relish changing it every month since the door to get at it is not really a door so much as a huge piece of plywood with no good place to grab it

6:38 am

herinfernallady

SOft paws are a great option but my cat has grown up on lino so she is used to not clawing its my bleeding couch that cops it

6:39 am

Atalante

wrap it up in tin foil, the unshiny side out

6:39 am

Book Doctor Gwen

wrap up the cat or the couch, atalante?

6:39 am

Atalante

LOL both would be a good idea!!

6:39 am

herinfernallady

As Dc says you can always recover the couch

6:40 am

Atalante

the couch. if there are any bits she concentrates on

6:40 am

Book Doctor Gwen

I never heard of the actual procedure for declawing that is awful

6:44 am

lori ann

woops....I did'nt mind the one yesterday.

6:44 am

Atalante

declawing is horrendous, and should be banned

6:44 am

herinfernallady

It is in your country Ata

6:44 am

carleekat

6:45 am

herinfernallady

6:45 am

Atalante

6:45 am

redturtlehead

I hated yesterdays, and once again did not finish...I just have a lto of crud to do.

6:45 am

Poor little kitty feet. Carlee my cat often hits the glass

6:45 am

nancethefan

i didn't mean to start an uproar - i don't believe in it either

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Words are not jumping out at me.

6:46 am

Atalante

I just waited to see where Silverclaw decided she wanted to scratch and then coated those areas with some carpet off-cuts. So she can scratch where she wants, but no damage is done

6:46 am

lori ann

I strongly agree Inge!!!

6:46 am

redturtlehead

Keep sipping the coffee Scrabbler.

6:46 am

On the other hand, Jacula, who knows WHAT he's wearing in that photo. He doesn't look comfortable, if you ask me.

Scarlet

It has two vowels, MLF, but interrupted by a consonant...

10:57 am

2:42 pm

Jacula

...and there she is in all her glory... Ms. Hazel Cartland.

2:43 pm

Atalante

but there's one thing wrong Jac. the lipliner stays within the actual lip area :P

2:43 pm

Haz1558

And the moral of the story is - if Atalante or Jacula ever ask for a photo of you DON'T DO IT!

2:44 pm

Jacula

I know, Ata. I did take it up a bit but I though afterwards that it was too neat.:-)

2:44 pm

harpjane

i like your clue jill

7:41 pm

Aussieme

I dont know Angela, but it is sure scary, its costing me a fortune.....

7:41 pm

StephieC

it's probably not a combo - me5 is the plural of the me4/5 and the me6 is more meat, but spelled differently

7:41 pm

jillibus

the last me 5 and 6 are not a combo -- the 5 is the present tense of me4/5, the 6 is me + level of seats

7:41 pm

Angela

I can imagine! We have been getting a ton of snow but I would much rather that that what you have been getting!
