Andree
no its used as a noun to describe a twit
12:41 am
herinfernallady
YEs ANk it is being a right tosser, toss pot, toss is pretty much the same thing as calling someone a wanker
12:41 am
Andree
or what herin said
12:42 am
Ankhorite

Andree
no we also use wanker[ pardon] to describe an idiot
12:43 am
herinfernallady
no meaning that the person isn't quite a complet richard head but is really annoying
12:43 am
herinfernallady
Yes Jill it is sorry
12:43 am

herin, do they call you a pommy?
12:45 am
dcseain
the T is pronounced? Never in US dialects that i've encountered, unless making a point when
teaching spelling.
12:45 am
Andree
i spoke the queens english till i came to Aus at age 9, then i practised very hard to sound like everyone else
12:46 am
Ankhorite
:: agrees with Seain, no T in US casssssles ::
12:46 am
Douglas
It's my understanding that speaking the Queen's English is Australia is a good way to get people to look at you funny...
12:46 am
Andree
it was my way of fitting in at school
12:46 am
dcseain
makes sense, andree.

12:47 am
dcseain
i have a friend who came to US from Belarus at age 12. She still has accent, because she realised she could learn to say it right, or learn to speak, and she chose the latter.
12:48 am
dcseain
probably, jilli, it's likely the most neutral accent at this point in NA.

How come this puzzle doesn't recognise 'henge' - the common name for an ancient stine structure (as in Stonehenge) - or, for that matter Pelaton - the main pack in a bicycle race (not allowable in the puzzle the day before yeaterday). This dictionary needs an urgent upgrade!
1:11 am
Just1Mar
did mes canadiens win tonight darty?
1:11 am
Ankhorite
Rabba, we already grumped about that... the official dictionary just doesn't have henge.
1:11 am
Andree
it is funny how we have different spelling for the same word, my kids did much of their high school at american schools in asia , i was nearly driven insane with how they were taught to spell
1:11 am
dcseain
because enable, the dictionary, as jilli put it earlier, is an ignoramus, rabbsar. hello.

1:13 am

i googled it the other day parisla and its pelaton
1:13 am
Andree
not really but it was pretty silly when the kids got marked wrong for what is actually correct spelling
1:13 am
dcseain
how petty of the instructors, IMHO.
1:13 am
Ankhorite
Hi, Ursh, didn't see you before. :)
1:13 am
Just1Mar
u talkin' bout the u Andree?
1:14 am
Just1Mar
it's so funny that I can't see the words minus the U....
1:14 am
dcseain
gaol/jail kerb/curb i can see, but most like -ise vs -ize are just cosmetic.
1:14 am
parisla
it's a french word, so I should know ;-). Wiki says The peloton (from French, literally meaning ball and related to the English word platoon)
1:14 am
ursh
i need 4 more words to take a break with 100 left and cant find any more grrr
1:15 am
Just1Mar

I understand (re colour/color etc) that the "our" ending derives from the French, and that Noah Webster decided to purify and go back to the Latin source, hence the "or" ending

Must have Sprite - the clock on Babble is an hour different
3:59 am

that was what I was thinking, but I am easily confused with time differences. We won't hit DLT until 30 March.
3:59 am
sprite
which is extremely late... happens about only 8 times in 500 years that DST starts after easter.
4:00 am
lynxxx
and we are early April - very late too
4:01 am
sprite
indeed so, lynxxx! Well, at least we will be more or less staying the same. I will have to make note of the US... and them having different time zones within the boundaries doesn't make it any easier, lol.
4:07 am
lynxxx
broke 100, went to list, first word I see is ac4.5 ! oh well, at least I am consistent as I never see it
4:08 am

Hello. Thanks for those tips, sprite! I'm Babbling while my cat snores his head off a few feet away. He snores louder than my partner!
4:13 am

lol hydra! Hi and yvw :)
4:14 am

Hi lynxxx. Didn't mean to sound as if I was leaving you out.
4:14 am
lynxxx
Hi Hydra. Bet he's easier to stop though
4:14 am
sprite
yeah, sometimes that seems true, lynxxx. But there are so many times more lurkers than chatters in this game.
4:14 am
hydra
I'm guilty of lurking when I'm busy and have only ten mins to spare.
4:15 am
sprite
ah... the nose-in-the-air arrogant word I recently confused with high-up, is now in the grid :)
4:15 am
sprite
nobody can be guilty of lurking. It is a right we have :)
4:15 am
hydra
I have to start work in a minute, really, even on Sunday, as I have to produce three chapters of a novel by Monday. I only started on Friday! I've done nearly 9000 words since then. It'#s a hard life!
4:16 am
sprite
eeeeks hydra... what did you do with it? Write it, translate it, correct it?
4:17 am
lynxxx
Rolin - dont be such a smart al** (let's see if I can flush her out)
4:17 am
hydra
Write it. From scratch. I don't know if the publisher will want to buy it, it's all on spec. But a literary agent is meeting the publisher tomorrow and will take it with him if he thinks it's any good.
4:17 am
sprite
lol lynxxx!

Hi infernal!

4:19 am

You're right, sprite. It was a real challenge. I'm not even sure how the story will end but have to figure it out and write a synopsis. I'll let you all know how it goes.
4:20 am
sprite

4:20 am
herinfernallady
What are you writing about hydra?
4:21 am
hydra
You're making me blush, sprite. It's a Joanne Trollope type of romance set in a country village, with a twist, because the woman who's just moved there has a secret... I shall say no more!
4:21 am

herinfernallady
If you get a chance watch Jekyll its very good
4:44 am
Marmar
Hi Lady, our Priest goes a rung up on the Church ladder. Monsignor, I believe, is the step before Bishop, then Cardinal and finally Pope. He is a wonderful leader, speaker, shepherd if you will! And his family name is Heil which means "healing" in English. So appropriate as he helps so many people.
4:45 am
herinfernallady
wow. Um is that part of the Catholic church? Im a little sketchy with things this eve
4:45 am
Marmar
Oh, yes, I should have said that at the beginning.

Jandy
Good too thanks lady!
5:29 am

5:29 am
ardilla

5:29 am
lynxxx
lol - whatever the accu is - !!?? thats great
5:30 am
Jandy
That would be the battery to us!
5:30 am
sprite
husband was doing better on the new meds, then got a new attack the day before yesterday. He now has to take another med as well, and that helps. He is without pain today, for the first time this year.
5:30 am
sprite
ohhhhhh am so sorry. Yes, the battery. Stupid me.
5:30 am
Jandy
Working on the grid with the clog wog again.. he needs to join up himself!

5:31 am
Jandy
Dank je wel! En jij ook!
5:32 am
ardilla
thanks lynxxx
5:32 am
lynxxx
er7.36 means soon. sort of compound and sounds archaic
5:32 am
Jandy
Well, figuring out what was going on muust have made an enormous difference, so I hope it stays this way for him, sprite!
5:33 am
sprite
so do I, Jandy! He is not as used to pain as I am and it took out so much of him. He still goes to bed extremely early, often with the kids. And even though he does not understand why, I do, LOL.
5:33 am
sprite
does anyone want a list of the 7s, with second letter and points?
5:34 am
Jandy
True enough, sprite. Pain is very tiring. As you know!
5:34 am
herinfernallady
Please
5:34 am
Jandy
Thanks lynxxx, great clues
5:34 am
ardilla
yes, cuz i'm missing 3 pls

Lickety is up Sprite
5:34 am
sprite
took me 10 years to figure that out myself, lol, Jandy. I am not very smart that way either.
5:35 am
Jandy
Funnily enough, I think I'm quite perceptive about how people are doing. Except for me!!
5:35 am
Jandy
I think a lot of us are like that... especially mothers...

5:37 am
sprite
ah, ok lynxxx, that is great. My toughest 7 was the sc32. Thing on the skin of a snake + first vowel of the hawaiian goose I think I forgot that one on the babblets list, btw.
5:37 am
sprite
hi and bye, Chrissie! :)
5:39 am
sprite
first vowel? I am really stupid this morning. First syllable, I mean.
5:40 am
Jandy
Now, sprite. Enough of the stupid talk! Here you are chatting away in a language which is not your first. I admire anyone who can do that!
5:40 am
sprite
oh, and occasion is a phantom, in case you wondered. As is fo**ile.
5:40 am
herinfernallady
thanks Sprite
5:41 am
Marmar
Sprite, don't say things like that about yourself please. You're a jewel.
5:41 am
Jandy
I think California is a phantom in this one...
5:41 am
sprite
well, chatting away is one thing, getting words totally mixed up is another. So ok, maybe not stupid, but definitely confusing, lol.
The snake skin thing + first SYLLABLE of the hawaiian goose, it should read.
5:41 am
herinfernallady
Sprite no your not
5:41 am

is that the physical cause of narrowmindedness, BabbleRabble?
5:44 am
BabbleRabble
some people have a mind like a steel trap ... once it closes nothing gets in
5:44 am
Jandy
Oh, well you are clearly having an excellent day in Morocco. How's the food? Had a tagine yet?
5:45 am
Jandy
Quickly scans grid to make sure tagine not there... not wanting to be sent You Know Where!
5:45 am
herinfernallady
dang it
5:46 am
sprite
yeah, guess that is true. Ok, if I can't help any more, I will be off and do some chores. *hugs* to you all, happy babbling and thanks for the wonderful company, help and fun. You guys rock.

I am contemplating petitioning the dress industry to make patriotic changes to prevent political lying
5:49 am
Jandy
The dress industry, BR?
5:49 am
BabbleRabble

herinfernallady
Babble i agree.
5:50 am
ardilla
clue for the so7 pls?
5:50 am
herinfernallady
I am a FAT size 16 to 18 and i should be a 12 to 14 to be healthy. Its totally b.s
5:51 am
Jandy
Well, intellectually I agree, but it depresses the life out of me given that I wear several sizes bigger than a few years ago. So the news is even worse than I thought! thanks BR....
5:51 am
herinfernallady
Judging by how one is treated in the stores you should be a 10 -12. mmm b.s
5:52 am
Uneaixoise
so7 one who so6/21
5:52 am
herinfernallady
Jandy and babble the male and female species need to stand up and say ' i like my body im not a size im a person.
5:52 am
Jandy
Interesting experience with new govt here, BR. they are being pretty up front with the population about how things really are. Somewhat novel approach.
5:53 am
ardilla
i don't have the so6.21 either ;(
5:53 am
Uneaixoise
so6 comfort
5:53 am
BabbleRabble
my take is a politician will jump at any excuse for laxity in personal accountability and integrity
5:54 am
herinfernallady
SO plus thing used to tie your shoes
5:54 am
herinfernallady
that and fat people pay more for clothes should skinny people pay less?

Well, BR, if you are the latter you must be the former. What are you writing about specifically?

herinfernallady

BabbleRabble

herinfernallady
sorry i don't understand what you mean Une?
5:59 am

Jandy
Very true, une. It's an awful, awful thing.
5:59 am
herinfernallady

5:59 am
Uneaixoise
waterboarding is an "acceptable" form of "persuasion" used on political prisoners
6:00 am
ardilla
thanks BR
6:01 am
herinfernallady
Ok so the states is allowing crimes against the person. mmm I wonder if Bush also thinks that Hitler wasn't a bad man but totally misunderstood. HEAD DESK FECK TARD
6:01 am
Uneaixoise
Shrub = any means to an end
6:02 am
Uneaixoise
and he believes that results in reliable information . . .
6:02 am
herinfernallady
But if i poke you alot with a cattle prod arent you going to tell me what i want to hear to make me stop?
6:02 am
ardilla
water boarding was used in the spanish inquisition
6:02 am
Uneaixoise
precisely
6:03 am
herinfernallady
Can the world charge bush with crimes against the people?
6:03 am
herinfernallady
um human rights dohicky
6:03 am
Uneaixoise
good luck
6:03 am
BabbleRabble
waterboarding was used by the US in the Phillipines during the spanish american war
6:03 am
herinfernallady
at least hes going this year
6:04 am
Uneaixoise
wondering if it's possible to ever repair all the damage he's done . . .
6:05 am
Jandy
I think it is, Une. Time heals a lot of things...
6:05 am
Uneaixoise
i salute your optimism
6:05 am
Uneaixoise
seriously
6:06 am
BabbleRabble
I have been very sincere in telling congress they are spineless twits incapable of managing a pile of rocks
6:06 am
herinfernallady
I was against him the moment he vetoed funding to third world countries for birth control
6:06 am
Jandy
Well, if you look at countries like Germany and Japan, they have rebuilt from the ground up successfully...
6:06 am
Uneaixoise
yep, one of his many brilliant moves, herin
6:07 am
herinfernallady
Yep. I even think i was so disgusted about that i wrote to the Washington post
6:07 am
Uneaixoise
but you know, jandy, there are folks who will never trust Germany ever again
6:08 am
Jandy
That's true, and there are Australians in particular who hold a grudge against the Japanese. But it is still a generational issue, and more time yet will pass and people will forget that bias.
6:08 am
herinfernallady
DOn't get me wrong its just one person not the people
6:08 am
Jandy
My word, waxing philosophical tonight, aren't we!!

I'm hoping whoever gets in reverses some of Bush's decisions. It would be a bit hypocrital of McCain (if he is elected) to approve of torture. Well, more than a bit...
6:12 am
herinfernallady
McCain from what i heard can it my arse
6:12 am
pinkhatlil
im back!! *waves*

Tired, our clocks lost an hour today. And I got up to do laundry and the laundry room is still locked.
6:14 am
Eva
as one of the few USers on right now, please everyone, use whatever psychic means you have to make sure we don't have another republican president. Or you guys north of the border may be seeing me soon.
6:14 am
herinfernallady
We lost on hour of babble
6:14 am
herinfernallady
He eva
6:15 am
sukee
Harper is trying to be like Bush though, that's why I want a Democrat in the US
6:15 am
herinfernallady
Eva come to us
6:15 am
Eva
it's a bit far herin...Canada is only a couple of hours away.
6:15 am
Jandy
I was the same with our elections late last year, guys. But we did get a change of govt after 11 long years. Still, there were lots of people who thought the previous govt did a great job.... depends on your measurement.
6:16 am
Jandy
Weather's better, though, Eva! LOL!
6:17 am
sukee
there are some words in the grid today that fit Bush :)
6:17 am
herinfernallady
Sukee Tw plus picnic ant isnt in here
6:17 am
Eva
not too many people here now think that Bush is doing a good job, but there is such a desire to be "saved" by some big strong daddy figure who promises to fight the bad guys- who can't be fought that way. Obama, right now for me, is the only one who is representing a return to statesmanship rather than mindless aggressive posturing.
6:17 am
herinfernallady
opps
6:17 am
Uneaixoise
yay, eva!!
6:18 am
herinfernallady
My kitty has a bald spot from her colar
6:18 am
Eva
that depends Jandy....I'm not big on super heat. However, as get older, the winters are getting more wearing too.
6:18 am
ardilla
yeah, i like obama
6:19 am
ardilla
i think hillary is the antichrist in a pantsuit...lol
6:19 am
sukee
Don't talk to me about winter...I had to cancel yet another social engagement because of all the snow we got yesterday. I haven't been able to get out practically all winter.
6:19 am
Jandy
LOl ardilla...LOL
6:19 am
Eva
I feel much more despair over my fellow citizens than I do over the specific leaders. They got elected after all.
6:20 am
sukee
I'm happy that a lot of the really conservative people say they won't vote of McCain, of course they probably will anyway because George told them to
6:20 am
Jandy
Well, it's a big country, eva, so you could pick your spot. We have a nice winter here. Just freezing on a cold night then about 16-20 C during the day. And it hardly ever gets to 40 any more!
6:20 am
Eva
sukee, it's been a particularly hard one hasn't it? The 4+ feet of snow were dealable with, but when we had that slight thaw about a month again and everything turned to ice I stopped being able to take my walks - even with crampons strapped onto my feet it was just too icy and scary.
6:21 am
ardilla
clue for the first fo6 pls?
6:21 am
sukee
...debates moving to Australia...likes it all except for the bugs :)
6:22 am
Jandy
We lived in St Louis for a few years and I really never understood till then what an INCONVENIENCE the whole thing was....
6:22 am
Jandy
Bugs, sukee? What bugs? We have some little spiders....
6:22 am
herinfernallady
Oh and the things that kill u
6:22 am
ardilla
like the deadly snakes?
6:23 am
Jandy
Shhhhhh...lady
6:23 am
sukee
I don't like spiders...
6:23 am
herinfernallady
Jandy the Funnel Webs that live in the water and the drop bears
6:23 am
herinfernallady
:D
6:23 am
sukee
And I bet your spiders are a lot bigger than ours
6:23 am
Eva
New Zealand sounds like paradise to me. But I just don't think that I could move so far away from my friendship network. As you get older you realize how incredibly rare it is to find soul mates who weather the test of time. Not something I take lightly.
6:23 am
herinfernallady
Sukee not really.
6:23 am
Jandy
We had one recently that you could actually hear walking on the wall, sukee. But not poisonous.
6:24 am
sukee
Even hearing that made me cringe
6:24 am
Jandy
I'm with you Eva. I would happily go and live in Thailand for a few years except for that network.
6:24 am
sukee
Most of my grandfather's family moved to Australia...I'll have to find out who and where they are :)
6:25 am
herinfernallady
The goliath birdeater tarantula of South America is arguably the biggest spider in the world. The venomous night hunter can grow to be one foot (30 centimeters) long and sports one-inch (2.5-centimeter) fangs.
6:25 am
Jandy
You should do sukee.
6:25 am
herinfernallady
We don't ahve dinner plate spiders thanks
6:26 am
sukee
Of course, my kitty could take care of those spiders...
6:26 am
Jandy
Strangely enough, I can pick the great big (non venomous) spiders up on a piece of paper and put them outside. But I don't care for moths... yukk....
6:26 am
herinfernallady
Um no
6:26 am
herinfernallady
Jandy great place to live for loath of moths
6:27 am
sukee
Interesting...conversation went from Bush to insects...
6:27 am
Jandy
But I did have a big fat redback in the boot of my car last week, with a web going, and that would kill your kitty dead. Fast.
6:27 am
Jandy
And make an adult pretty sick...
6:27 am
herinfernallady
We know that hes a roach right
6:28 am
sukee
Ok...enough talk of spiders. It's making my skin crawl :)
6:28 am
herinfernallady
Jandy thats what hairspray and bbq lighters are for
6:28 am
Jandy
True, lady, we get those disgusting, furry, huge bogong moths.... blerk!
6:28 am
ardilla

6:28 am
herinfernallady
Apparently they are tasty
6:28 am

Right. The clogwog and I have reached the halfway mark and are now going to play SuperScrabble, hoping against hope to finish this tomorrow.
6:29 am

ardilla
how are you pink?
6:32 am
Eva
I have never been able to convince Merp to eat bugs, except for houseflies. He just watches spiders. Spiders, roaches and leeches are really the only animals that give me the creeps. Oh, not big on ants when there are lots of them either. Rodents and snakes are just fine.
6:33 am
ardilla
*sighs of relief*
6:33 am

I have a very close friend in Australia and would love to visit, but just can't bear the idea of the interminable plane journey. Getting on a plane at all is something i avoid whenever possible, I dream of some day having the time and money to go by sea.

large amounts of yellow dust comes down from the north and blankets everything
7:41 am
herinfernallady
I can't open any pages at the moment except this one.
7:41 am
ardilla
makes it pretty hard to breathe

the dust storm comes from the gobi desert in china
7:44 am
herinfernallady
Icky Ardilla just Icky
7:44 am
pinkhatlil
its not fatal is it ardilla?
7:45 am
pinkhatlil
its probably sand being carried by the wind, when season begins to change
7:46 am
ardilla
luckily, no; just causes respiratory aliments but it can neutralize acid rain
