ty... my baby is a gooen' though so shouldn't be too hard

3:16 am

sprite

on top of the re4, I slipped on a stone my son left lying on the floor at the bottom of the stairs, Dee. I fell and hurt myself pretty badly. Nothing broken, but strained and twisted.

3:17 am

VolleymomDee

big fat ouch.... when I fell in sept and twisted and tore stuff; they said it often doesn't hurt as much if you do actually break something; dear sprite take it easy!!! you will need lots of rest and ice and meds I bet

3:19 am

sprite

yes, and I don't want my son to feel bad about it, so I am trying not to wince too much. But it HURTS. But my back is stiffening up now, worst pain is over there. So I trust the re4 will follow.

3:20 am

VolleymomDee

I sooo hope so; of course you don't want him to feel too badly, but I bet he doesn't leave anything at the bottom of the steps again :~)

3:20 am

3:21 am

sprite

no, he won't, he really hates it that being a little careless made me fall badly. But those things happen, esp. at that age. I told him he is guilty of letting a stone lying around, NOT of making me fall.

Atalante

10:06 am

lizmac

Potatoes, onions and minced meat...real comfort food.

10:06 am

Haz1558

Stovies, Scottish dish, varying from region and family. Basically a mix of potatoes and left over meat.

10:06 am

Ouwachita

anyone need a clue before i go?

10:06 am

Atalante

oh yum!

10:07 am

Haz1558

I'm okay, thanks Ouwachita.

10:08 am

lizmac

Or a "Jimmy pie" (Scotch pie)

10:08 am

Haz1558

Yes, the ones that come with heart attack warning attached!

10:09 am

lizmac

Yep, those are the ones.

10:09 am

Haz1558

Is there any Iron-Bru in the PB?

10:09 am

westford

we had rumbledethumps at a Scottish restaurant they were good

10:09 am

westford

are they real?

10:10 am

lizmac

And what, pray are those westford?

10:10 am

westford

a potato dish

10:10 am

westford

they just made up the name for us didn't they?

10:10 am

Haz1558

I've just googled them - it's the Scots version of bubble and squeak.

10:10 am

lizmac

No idea, Haz, headed straight for the single malt!

10:11 am

Haz1558

And the Scots version of Irish Colcannon.

10:11 am

westford

don't think there was any meat though

10:11 am

westford

yes they were like colcannon

10:11 am

Atalante

mmmm colcannon

10:11 am

westford

colcannon day is coming up

10:11 am

Haz1558

No, potato, cabbage, onion. Don't eat beans at the same time, for goodness sake.

10:12 am

FMitch

and brusslesprouts

10:12 am

lizmac

We tend to call it colcannon or bubble and squeak, but rumbledethumps sounds more whimsical, doesn't it!

10:12 am

FMitch

Bubble and squeak - bf makes that dish to perfection

10:12 am

westford

cabbage is so good too bad it has a bad rep

10:12 am

Atalante

no! NO! no sprouts!

10:13 am

Haz1558

It has a bad reputation because people insisted on cooking it to death.

10:13 am

rururocks

cr 6/21 please?

10:13 am

westford

and smelling up the kitchen for days

10:13 am

FMitch

remember when Grandma added bicarb to the pan to soten it down! horrors!

10:15 am

Atalante

my great-aunt used to serve this *mush* that apparently was cabbage. though it had no structure and no taste

10:15 am

FMitch

at school you always knew if cabbage was on the menu as you could smell it at 9am

10:15 am

Haz1558

c, the first name of Magritte, finish with a consonant

10:15 am

LadyNatts

*wonders why lickety hasn't changed the video since friday*

10:15 am

lizmac

Enough of this flatulent chat..I'm breaking out of PB (enboldened by aforesaid single malt) to get on with my 71 words.

10:15 am

Haz1558

(For cr6)

10:15 am

Haz1558

Lady, he's probably had other things to do.

10:16 am

Atalante

**** and georgette magritte avec leur chien apres la guerre *sings*

10:16 am

Haz1558

He doesn't seem to have a lot of time to chat, even when announcing that the clues are done.

10:16 am

Haz1558

Dear goodness, if Vicuna hears there's singing, she'll want to join in.

10:17 am

LadyNatts

I suppose so... not intending to complain, just curious

10:17 am

Atalante

Whan that Aprille with his shoores soot
The drought of March hath perced to the roote,
And bathed every vein in swich liquor
With which vertu engendered is the flour...

FMitch

Hello Vi and BabbleR

All is well with you today Vi?

11:36 am

lizmac

Hello again, any clues for the middle KO, please?

11:36 am

Vicuna

Oh, yes. It's cold but sunny and my first crocuses are beginning to bloom. I was pleased to see the ga6 and 8 in the grid to celebrate!

11:36 am

Vicuna

How about yourself?

11:36 am

FMitch

Hi liz, think the middle of apples

11:37 am

11:37 am

FMitch

11:38 am

Vicuna

Greek statue, liz. Sometimes holds up a roof,

11:38 am

lizmac

Yep, just done that, I'm enlightened now!

11:38 am

Vicuna

Nice to have nowhere else you have to be.

11:39 am

FMitch

I say Vi, just reading your bio re your illustrious brother

11:40 am

Vicuna

Pretty cool, eh? Everyone else in my family got to go see the launch, but I had to stay home with kids. =P

11:40 am

Atalante

oh noooo! I lwould *love* to see a launch one day

11:40 am

FMitch

Oh what a shame!

11:41 am

lizmac

WOW, Vic, that is WAY cool!!

11:41 am

Vicuna

Me, too. My brother's got proposals in for a few other projects so it is possible there may be another chance, but I don't think the odds are particularly high.

11:42 am

Vicuna

I watched the live feed of the launch on the computer, though, and got all choked up.

11:42 am

Atalante

awwwww

11:44 am

Vicuna

That's link to the New Horizons web site. If you've ever got lots of time on your hands and are interested, you can watch their show about it. My brother is the one out in the snow explaining spectroscopy of different ices.

11:44 am

FMitch

Stares blankly at the screen

11:45 am

Atalante

11:46 am

Vicuna

Yeah - it makes me feel like I haven't ever accomplished anything! lol

11:46 am

FMitch

Brrr just put heating and lights on.

Now now, you have Vi just in different fields

11:47 am

Vicuna

Yeah... I'm good at Babble! =D

11:48 am

FMitch

11:48 am

Atalante

you're an artist extraordinaire!

11:49 am

Vicuna

Well, thanks, FM. I'm not really worried about it, I was just teasing. But I am in awe of him!

11:49 am

FMitch

I know Vi :)

11:50 am

Vicuna

Thanks, Ata, too. It's nice to have support.

11:50 am

Atalante

11:51 am

Vicuna

lol

11:51 am

Vicuna

*basks in the warm supportive glow*

11:51 am

Atalante

*vi's official cheerleader squad*

11:51 am

Vicuna

Mutual admiration society.

11:52 am

Atalante

oooo I'm doing a pretty pic at the moment!

11:52 am

Vicuna

Tell!

11:53 am

Atalante

Its Galadriel and her birdbath of doom. But its very MUcha, and flowy and pretty

11:53 am

FMitch

ooo its good!

11:53 am

Vicuna

lol at "birdbath of doom"

11:53 am

FMitch

I've seen it, manages to look slightly smug

11:54 am

Vicuna

Was this one of the pics that was going to be an angel?

11:54 am

Vicuna

I want to see!

11:54 am

Atalante

its the only way to describe the thing lol

11:54 am

lizmac

Fireworks!! See you all tomorrow!

11:54 am

Atalante

kind of ...

11:54 am

FMitch

Congrats Liz

11:54 am

Vicuna

Goodbye, lizm!

11:55 am

Atalante

I'll email you the draft. Just so FM can't look smug

11:55 am

Vicuna

Cool! Thanks.

11:56 am

FMitch

But, but ... sits down feeling confused

11:56 am

Atalante

you saw it first, dear

11:56 am

Vicuna

(And by the way, Ata, this savage yank is drinking tea, so you've got NOTHING on me!)

11:56 am

FMitch

Loool

11:56 am

Atalante

LMAO. its just such a wonderful quote from Orson Scott Card. It never fails to make me giggle

11:57 am

Vicuna

lol

11:58 am

Atalante

actually I'd say that more Americans are tea snobs than brits. most people here will just drink PGTips. but over there, you all seem to be a bit more sophisticated

11:58 am

Atalante

(I'm excluding us inthat, obviously, FM!)

11:59 am

FMitch

I question the sweepingness of your statement Ata ROFL

11:59 am

Vicuna

I"m not super fancy in my tea tastes. But the recent tea boom has definitely benefitted me, because it's made more varieties - especially decaf black - more widely available.

12:00 pm

Haz1558

Hello again!

12:00 pm

Vicuna

Helloooooooo, Haz!

12:00 pm

Atalante

LOL I know thats a vast oversimplification. But I don't think I know any American who would happily drink a big mug of PGTips and milk. Though they all do seem to like sugar ...

12:00 pm

Atalante

welcome to stereotypes daily!

12:01 pm

FMitch

Thre was in interesting little snippet this morning about the increase in the tea varieties available as some turn from alcohol to teas

12:01 pm

Vicuna

I use sugar or honey, but my Dave doesn't.

12:01 pm

Haz1558

Hello there. StereotypesRus?

12:02 pm

Vicuna

Well, I do tea and not alcohol, so the more of a social trend that is, the better for me!

12:02 pm

Atalante

ayla always drank some tea with her sugar, I've yelled at her and glared at her until she doesn't now, and appreciates it much more!

12:02 pm

FMitch

Likewsie Vi but it has yet to catch on in traditional pubs

12:02 pm

FMitch

Hello Haz, welcome back

12:02 pm

Vicuna

You amaze me! *sarcasm*

12:02 pm

Atalante

I stood up for you in the log earlier, Haz. *smug*

12:03 pm

Haz1558

Did you? You mean defended me rather than standing up for the Hallelujah Chorus?

12:03 pm

FMitch

She did Haz

12:03 pm

Atalante

that too

12:03 pm

Haz1558

I'll have to check back. Sure nobody told VI anything about the singing?

12:03 pm

Vicuna

Well, actually if I'm drinking tea with a meal, I use no sugar. I put in a little if the tea is freestanding, as it were.

12:04 pm

Vicuna

You were singing the HAllelujah Chorus earlier? You just told me it was rounds!

12:04 pm

FMitch

We did but were very supportive about it Haz and I don't think she noticed.

12:04 pm

Atalante

we didn't quite get to the Hallelujah ...

12:05 pm

Haz1558

It's going to be our Christmas project, Vicuna.

12:05 pm

Vicuna

Do you all like sheep?

12:05 pm

Vicuna

Very wise to start practicing already, Haz.

12:05 pm

Haz1558

Don't talk to me about sheep. It's lambing season.

12:05 pm

FMitch

Mint sauce!

12:05 pm

Atalante

I do. Do ewe?

12:06 pm

FMitch

Ha Ha

12:06 pm

Vicuna

Feeling sheepish for having mentioned it.

12:06 pm

FMitch

Anyway ... why did you ask?

12:07 pm

Haz1558

Telephone calls at unearthly hours with sheep needing attention.... I do like to eat lamb, though.

12:07 pm

BabbleRabble

ewes are dangerous... a ram went over the cliff for failing to see the ewe turn

12:07 pm

Vicuna

"Messiah" joke. One of the choruses goes "All we like sheep..."

12:07 pm

FMitch

groan

12:07 pm

Atalante

ewe mean, why did ewe ask?

12:07 pm

Haz1558

Have gone astrayayayayay.

12:07 pm

Vicuna

("... have gone astray.")

12:08 pm

FMitch

No I didnt Ata, silly me for trying to be sensible for a nanosecond!

12:08 pm

Vicuna

Testify, Haz!

12:08 pm

Vicuna

(An excellent contribution, BabRab!)

12:08 pm

Scarlet

I disappeared with lilies and come back to Wiffenpoof... is Vicuna at it again?

12:09 pm

Haz1558

Hello Scarlet - Vicuna is here and we're trying desperately to steer her away from singing.

12:09 pm

Vicuna

Whiffenpoofs? You want I should start in with "Boola boola" too?

12:09 pm

Scarlet

:-) I would expect nothing less from you, Vi!

12:10 pm

Scarlet

Rather thee than me, Haz.

12:10 pm

Vicuna

I think, Haz, that if you reread your own contributions to the chat, you will not find much attempt to steer anyone away from singing!

12:10 pm

AsGreen

I do love gray columns...2, 3, 4 grey

12:10 pm

Scarlet

Good going, asgreen! :-)

12:10 pm

Haz1558

Ah, but that was when you weren't here, VIcuna. Now that you are... so, how are your children these days?

12:10 pm

Vicuna

Ah, the peaceful grey of columns laid to rest...

12:11 pm

AsGreen

I think I need a break - been babbling and making flight arrangements for April break...

12:11 pm

Vicuna

Well, since you ask, my daughter just joined the church choir, Haz!

12:11 pm

Atalante

hallelujah!

12:11 pm

Haz1558

Excellent - she has shaken off the family curse, then?

12:12 pm

Vicuna

lol! I'm a Quaker. We don't even have choirs! So she's simply the first generation to have had a choir option.

12:12 pm

PMS

Any help with el 7/32 please

12:13 pm

FMitch

phone brb

12:13 pm

Haz1558

Well, to be serious for once, I hope she enjoys it - singing in a choir is great for people of all ages.

12:13 pm

Vicuna

el7/32 - feminine version of el5/12, ends in woman's frock

12:13 pm

PMS

ty Vicuna

12:13 pm

Vicuna

She's excited about it, and it's the first organized thing she's done without her brother.

12:14 pm

Atalante

awwww

12:15 pm

Haz1558

It's great. One of the local television stations here started a School Choir of the Year competition quite a number of years ago and it has really encouraged young people to take part in choirs.

12:15 pm

carleekat

hello all

12:15 pm

AsGreen

25 to go - I could take that break....or..... :)

12:15 pm

Scarlet

HI, kattie.

12:15 pm

AsGreen

hi carlee

12:15 pm

Haz1558

There are sections for primary and secondary schools, and we even get some of the special needs schools taking part - it's fantastic.

12:16 pm

Haz1558

Hello carlee.

12:16 pm

Vicuna

In my schools growing up one always had to choose between singing or instrumental music, which I thought was a shame.

12:16 pm

Vicuna

Hello, carleekat.

12:16 pm

Vicuna

That sounds excellent, Haz.

12:16 pm

Haz1558

That is a shame, one complements the other.

12:16 pm

carleekat

so..just back from applying for passports for kids

12:17 pm

Vicuna

Of course, at least we had music programs, which many schools now are cutting...

12:17 pm

Scarlet

Are you planning a trip, kat?

12:17 pm

Haz1558

You're deporting them?

12:17 pm

carleekat

we are thinking of taking a family vacation... hubby wants to do "tourist trap " destinations... where as I want to go... off beaten path

12:17 pm

AsGreen

lol haz

12:18 pm

Scarlet

Sounds exactly like the inner you, kattie.

12:18 pm

carleekat

no..i'd deport hubby before kids..they the ones that allow me to KEEP my sanity right now

12:18 pm

AsGreen

is the 2nd ro7 similar to the one above it?

12:18 pm

Vicuna

There are places... Yucatan peninsula springs to mind... where you actually can get both together.

12:18 pm

Haz1558

I saw a plaque in a shop today and thought of stid, who was expressing horror at her two boys' behaviour. 'I love giving handmade gifts. So which of the kids do you want?'

12:19 pm

carleekat

he'd do cancun... porta vallarta...

12:19 pm

Vicuna

lol, Haz!

12:19 pm

Vicuna

Yes, and then you can do Chichen Itza, Coba...

12:19 pm

Haz1558

The second ro7/32 - could describe fishermen lacking in vital equipment. Or the state of the wives divorced by singer Mr Stewart

12:19 pm

carleekat

I'd rather..belize... or honduras

12:19 pm

AsGreen

got it - great clues haz!

12:20 pm

Haz1558

Good - glad they worked!

12:20 pm

Scarlet

Exellent, Haz! Thank you./

12:21 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, Scarlet.

12:21 pm

carleekat

ok.....back in a few... making lunch...greek salad..and tater tots ( its march break )

12:21 pm

Scarlet

See you soon, kattie.

12:21 pm

AsGreen

got the ro 8 all by myself lol

12:21 pm

Haz1558

See you later, carlee.

12:23 pm

Vicuna

Oh, Ata, you still here? Just checked my mail. How wonderfully deco! I REALLY love the plants along the bottom.

12:23 pm

Atalante

wheeeeee!

12:23 pm

Vicuna

Will it be colored eventually?

12:24 pm

FMitch

Im going to colour it in for her :)

12:24 pm

Atalante

oh yes. just deciding - slowly - whether to do dusk (purple/blues) or daytime (yellow/green/light blues)

12:24 pm

FMitch

Ive got my pencils out now all ready

12:24 pm

Vicuna

I think she looks more resigned than smug... but as she was feeling pretty smug about her resignation, I guess that goes together!

12:25 pm

Haz1558

Is this a show of hands situation?

12:25 pm

AsGreen

ok - dizzy w/words here - taking a break - bbl for real chat and last 17

12:25 pm

Judi

Afternoon, one and all. Might anyone have mercy on my soul and toss a clue for the el7, please?

12:25 pm

Atalante

I'm not sure what expression to give ehr in the end ... smug probably!

12:25 pm

Haz1558

See you later, as.

12:25 pm

Vicuna

Bye, asgreen.

12:25 pm

Haz1558

el7 - el plus a female garment

12:26 pm

Vicuna

Twilight would fit in better with the idea of the waning of her power and all that.

12:26 pm

Judi

Ty, Haz. Can stop banging my head on the keyboard now.

12:26 pm

FMitch

Perhaps we should have a contest and everyone gets to colour one in?

12:27 pm

Haz1558

Yes, Judi, please do. The neighbours were complaining.

12:27 pm

Haz1558

Yes, Judi, please do. The neighbours were complaining.

12:27 pm

Vicuna

lol. They do coloring contests at the supermarket here!

12:27 pm

Haz1558

.

12:27 pm

Atalante

It would, Vi. And I'd really like to do that. But everyone does her in twilight!

12:27 pm

Haz1558

The log's gone mad.

12:27 pm

Vicuna

I bet my daughter would LOVE to color that picture.

12:27 pm

FMitch

Its all been too much for Haz

12:28 pm

Haz1558

Will we have a show of hands about who wants to colour in?

12:28 pm

Haz1558

It's been AGES since we've had a good show of hands.

12:28 pm

Vicuna

(Haz, how do I say this gently: I'm not sure it's the LOG that's gone mad...)

12:28 pm

FMitch

Me me ME!

12:28 pm

Atalante

lol print it out and let her go mad!

12:28 pm

Vicuna

Hand!

12:29 pm

Haz1558

What do you mean? I'm a bit bewildered.

12:29 pm

BrokenStasis

Hello guys :)

12:29 pm

Haz1558

What are we going to colour in anyway?

12:29 pm

FMitch

Ahem, try and look normal gang :)

12:30 pm

Vicuna

Maybe dusky down by the ground but still brilliant colors in the sky?

12:30 pm

Haz1558

Good afternoon Broken. You can call me Bewildered.

12:30 pm

FMitch

Hi Stasis

12:30 pm

Atalante

oh - I'll email it to you ,haz!

12:30 pm

Haz1558

Okay, looking normal for the visitors.

12:30 pm

Haz1558

Oh good. I'll get my crayons ready, Ata.

12:30 pm

Vicuna

Starts to hum "Bewitched, bothered and bewildered..."
Then remembers the injunction about normalcy.

12:31 pm

BrokenStasis

Hello Bewildered! And FM.. I'm kinda new here. This's like, my fourth board

12:32 pm

BrokenStasis

Ex-tangleworder, here :(

12:32 pm

Vicuna

Welcome, Broken.

12:32 pm

Haz1558

It's LOVELY, Ata. I don't think my crayons are up to this.

12:33 pm

Atalante

its getting there. I think. She has an impossibly swirled dress right now, but hey!

12:33 pm

Haz1558

Ah well, Broken, you've come to the right place. We've provided a home from home for quite a few Tangleworders.

12:33 pm

BrokenStasis

So I've heard :) The community here is a lot tighter, though :)

12:33 pm

Haz1558

(PB Ata, female garment -- shhh, nobody else noticed)

12:34 pm

FMitch

tighter? is that a good thing?

12:34 pm

Atalante

what huh how why when? *innocent*

12:34 pm

BrokenStasis

Tighter as in closer together, not tighter as slang, haha :)

12:34 pm

Vicuna

Well, sometimes it's tight, and sometimes it's fast and loose.

12:35 pm

Haz1558

'She has an impossibly swirled dr5....'

12:35 pm

Atalante

we have our moments ...

12:35 pm

Atalante

what huh how why when? *still unbelievably innocent*

12:35 pm

Haz1558

But it's always very dignified, isn't it?

12:36 pm

Atalante

utterly

12:36 pm

Haz1558

Atalante, 12.33.

12:36 pm

FMitch

oh totally dignified Haz, dr5 for dinner and everything

12:36 pm

Vicuna

Ata gets to use the stereotypical artistic genius defense: she was out of her mind with creativity and not responsible for her actions.

12:36 pm

Atalante

lol i know haz! I'm just ignoring it

12:37 pm

FMitch

Stasis you know about licketys list and agels resource pages?

12:37 pm

Scarlet

Ata, I have my loden green and mud brown crayons ready... just aim me in the right direction!

12:37 pm

Haz1558

So, tell us, Broken, apart from being an ex-Tangleworder, where are you from and if you're a millionaire, can you publish your address so we can send begging letters?

12:37 pm

Vicuna

*aims Scarlet toward the damply thwaing spring yard*

12:38 pm

Vicuna

*thawing

12:38 pm

Scarlet

Wah! My crayons won't work on the wet lawn...

12:38 pm

Judi

Did someone say millionairre?? *batts eyelashes fetchingly*

12:38 pm

Vicuna

But Broken, if you happen to be a handsome male millionaire DO NOT tell Haz!

12:38 pm

FMitch

Sits Haz down *time for your meds dear*

12:38 pm

Atalante

are you called George really?

12:38 pm

Haz1558

Get in line, Judi.

12:38 pm

Scarlet

Welcome, Brokenstasis... this is the inmates running the asylum... as usual.

12:39 pm

Haz1558

Scarlet! Don't mention the asylum, you know how nervous FMitch gets.

12:39 pm

BrokenStasis

Haha :) Not a millionaire no :( But I'm a male who's been called handsome? 21 year-old musician, I don't think I'll be a millionaire within the next couple years anyway :x

12:39 pm

Judi

*elbows Haz aside* By the way, I have no children.

12:40 pm

Denny

Good afternoon all. I see Haz is up to her usual tricks!!!

12:40 pm

Judi

Goodness. He is a child. I rescind my elbow.

12:40 pm

Haz1558

21. You're 21. Rapid calculations.

12:40 pm

carra

hi everyone.. how many words today?

12:40 pm

Scarlet

Hello, young, handsome creature. YOu're young enough to be my grandson. Watch the circling schools of fisherwomen... AND you have a winner's attitude!

12:40 pm

Vicuna

Be brave, Broken. Be strong. Just remember, they can't really get to you through your screen.

12:40 pm

Haz1558

Hello Denny!

12:40 pm

FMitch

Hit the panic button that makes bullet proof screen shoot up protecting new babbler from "The Ladies"

12:41 pm

BrokenStasis

I'll fend them off as best I can textually, Vicuna, no worries :D

12:41 pm

Denny

Hi Haz. Now be gentle on the newbie, save him for me!

12:41 pm

Scarlet

Sure, sure, FMitch... and you will be the primary caretaker, no doubt?

12:41 pm

Haz1558

I have a 21 year old daughter. And a 24 year old. But the 21 year old is pretty (so is the other, though she's taken). You're sure you're not a millionaire?

12:41 pm

Vicuna

That's the spirit! You'll fit right in then!

12:42 pm

Haz1558

Which side of the Atlantic are you, Broken?

12:42 pm

Vicuna

That's no lady, FM. That's Haz!

12:42 pm

EspritdJean

hey, can youse peel yourselves off the newbie and clue me the 2 top right S's?

12:42 pm

Judi

LOL, Vic!

Scarlet

Matchmaker, Matchmaker... Haz, why am I channeling "Fiddler on the Roof"?

Vicuna

12:42 pm

Haz1558

Make me a match, catch me a catch - that one?

12:43 pm

BrokenStasis

Not a millionaire, but I have a rich personality? :) I live in MI, in the states.. I'll cough up half a plane ticket's worth if you fly her over!

12:43 pm

Vicuna

12:44 pm

Judi

Uh oh. Negotiations have begun.

12:44 pm

Scarlet

Yes, Haz! :-) Hi, peri and say hello to BrokenStasis... a newbie who is getting the freshman hazing right now!

12:44 pm

Vicuna

That's Haz-ing.

12:44 pm

Haz1558

A rich personality don't pay no bills.. have you any brothers?

12:44 pm

periwinkle

I noticed the hazing in the chat.

12:44 pm

Judi

Fireworks, by the way. *temporarily blinded by new meat Broken* Lost my train of thought.

12:44 pm

EspritdJean

Hey Broken from Michigan come on over to MY house . . . I'll give you a cookie

12:45 pm

12:45 pm

Scarlet

Vi! LOL... excellent! :-)

12:45 pm

BrokenStasis

Whereabouts do you live Esprit? Haz, nope, but I have four bandmates and three roommates I'm sure I can tap from!

12:45 pm

EspritdJean

I have no boundaries, Haz, you know that

12:45 pm

Scarlet

WHAT do you mean, peri... MOST?

12:46 pm

periwinkle

12:46 pm

BrokenStasis

Thank you for the warm welcome Peri :)

12:46 pm

Haz1558

I know Esprit, but I thought you might have kept the cookies out of it for a while longer.

12:46 pm

EspritdJean

I am in suburbs of Chicago, not too far to travel for a really NICE, WARM cookie :-)

12:46 pm

Vicuna

Even as few as 50.1% could truthfully be called "most."

12:46 pm

Scarlet

LOL, peri... very good! :-)

12:46 pm

Haz1558

THEY'RE STORE BOUGHT!

12:46 pm

EspritdJean

12:47 pm

EspritdJean

12:47 pm

Atalante

which state is MI? Too many M states

12:47 pm

BrokenStasis

Does esprit always speak in sexual connotations?

12:47 pm

BrokenStasis

I guess even in text, the right boob is always a little larger

12:47 pm

EspritdJean

Hey! registered sex offenders have feelings you know!

12:47 pm

Vicuna

Not exactly sneaky, though, is she? She is an out-and-out snalce.

12:47 pm

BrokenStasis

Michigan, Ata

12:47 pm

Denny

ata - isn't it M
ichigan?

12:47 pm

Scarlet

Mostly... so she'll forget she's 96 and a half.

12:47 pm

Atalante

oh! cold place

12:47 pm

Denny

LOL Broken

12:48 pm

EspritdJean

um, "snalce"? Should I be offended?

12:48 pm

Judi

Way to porn up the chat, Esprit. Never saw text boobs before. Oh, my sheltered lif.

12:48 pm

Judi

12:49 pm

Denny

Hi diem

12:49 pm

Haz1558

Hello diem!

12:49 pm

Judi

NoNoNoNoNo!

12:49 pm

Vicuna

snalce -n. - scheming, conniving vixen, usually female, sexual manipulator
Only you can say whether you're offended!

12:49 pm

EspritdJean

:-(

12:49 pm

Scarlet

Hi, diem... good to see another man here... I think our newbie, BrokenStasis needs some male support!

12:49 pm

Jacula

Good Lord! What HAVE I walked into??

12:49 pm

Scarlet

It's not good, Jac.

12:49 pm

Denny

Esprit - not a 'pert' one if you please, some of us are easily embarrassed!

12:49 pm

EspritdJean

a jockstrap for the newbie!

12:50 pm

Haz1558

Hello Jacula! You're sensible, you'll get them under control.

12:50 pm

Vicuna

Jacual, turn around and walk away. Before it's too late.

12:50 pm

Denny

Hi Jacula

12:50 pm

FMitch

rampant hormones Jacs, there will be handbags at dawn, mark my words!

12:50 pm

Jacula

Scarlet - How do you know Broken needs a truss?? Because he's broken?

12:50 pm

Judi

*sponges estrogen off the walls* Hope it's not too steamy in here for you, Broken.

12:50 pm

Haz1558

I've put Spangle's ears over her eyes. She's too young for this.

12:50 pm

Vicuna

*Jacula. Sigh. I made you look like a jackal.

12:51 pm

Denny

Also, some of us have been husbandless for weeks now. Seeing one could send me 'over the edge'!

12:51 pm

periwinkle

Broken, the chat is usually not like this

12:51 pm

Haz1558

Should we start another round of rounds? Row row row your boat, anyone?

12:51 pm

Scarlet

It was an educated guess, Jac!

12:51 pm

Jacula

LOL, Haz. Take a photo!

12:51 pm

BrokenStasis

Nah, I'm sorta used to this sort of thing Judi :) I've been playing online word games for a few years now, haha

12:51 pm

FMitch

He wasn't broken when he arrived!!

12:51 pm

Denny

No it's worse!

12:51 pm

Vicuna

So, Broken, when you said you'd heard the Babble community was "tighter," did you realize what that implied?

12:51 pm

BrokenStasis

Haha, yeah, I was just Stasis, just a bit ago

12:52 pm

BrokenStasis

I knew what it could be implied as, but I wasn't aware of what it could start, Vicuna, haha

12:52 pm

Vicuna

And yet... words are being found!

12:52 pm

Vicuna

Amazing, isn't it!

12:53 pm

Judi

Well, I'm off. The carpet guys are just about finished. Have to go inspect my seams.

12:53 pm

EspritdJean

I've giving a class in cyber symbols in 5 minutes

12:53 pm

Haz1558

Could we call you Ken for short? Or do you have a shorter name we could use than BrokenStasis?

12:53 pm

Scarlet

This chatline is usually, ah... more civilized than this, Broken... poor thing... walking right into the jaws of the lionessess... which, by the way, is the icon theme for today!! YOU'RE a PLANT, aren't you, Broken... hey?

12:53 pm

EspritdJean

you just saw an example of one (two actually)

12:53 pm

Denny

Bye Judi

12:53 pm

12:54 pm

Vicuna

12:54 pm

FMitch

Scarlet I think you had better stop calling this a chat line as that is a WHOLE different ballgame.

12:54 pm

BrokenStasis

You can call me Geoff, Haz :) That's my real name.. I'm a plant? Haha, I don't follow :x

12:54 pm

EspritdJean

I meant to put an exclamation mark there, and it turned into a question mark. Yes, stid. Two of them in one week! :(

1:17 pm

nDanLia

There was a sleep apnea discussion the other day. On NBC news today I heard of another treatment - 10 min/$2000 great results - they insert 3 pillars into the soft palate to counteract the wall collapse. They featured Dr. Craig Scwimmer of The Snoring Center in Texas. No machines or anything else after, and those interviewed said no pain or fuss either.

1:18 pm

stidmama

first re 5 is re + criminal in prison (slang word)

1:21 pm

redturtlehead

Really ready, am experiencing a bit of post race letdown...

1:21 pm

Scarlet

Okay, stid. I love the song... not much appreciation of jugglers, though. This man was quite the choreographer with those three balls.

1:22 pm

Scarlet

Glad to hear it, red. We have to be in touch for your Asheville visit! :-)

1:22 pm

redturtlehead

Oooh you could giveLickety the Canyonlands half video, its very inspirational, but only if you run, I guess...

1:22 pm

Scarlet

How long was your race? Is that the half-marathon?

1:22 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, Scarlet, I leave in about 24 days, not that I am counting...

1:22 pm

stidmama

I don't know what that is -- you could suggest it though.

1:23 pm

stidmama

:-D there are so many things to find and enjoy on the 'Net!

1:23 pm

Scarlet

LOL, red!!

1:27 pm

Scarlet

Okay red! What town are you heading to in Florida? Did you get the Orlando area? Is the J-man still in the picture? Are you happy with your contract requirements and pay scale?

1:28 pm

redturtlehead

I'mgoingtobe inClermont. J is out of thepicture for me. He called the other day, but whatever. Good withcontract, I think...depending on how thingsgo...

1:28 pm

redturtlehead

Trying to decideIfIwanttobrave theDisney crowds to run a 15K there in May...

1:29 pm

Scarlet

This is sounding really, really good red!

1:29 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, I am excited, all exceptfor theJ problem, but he can suck it up and deal...

1:29 pm

Scarlet

How close to Orlando is Clermont? Is this hospital work, home health care, ER placement...?

1:29 pm

redturtlehead

fled

1:30 pm

redturtlehead

And I go to the PB...

1:30 pm

Scarlet

1:31 pm

redturtlehead

Sauna?

1:31 pm

redturtlehead

We had Hot tub all weekend. V. Nice.

1:31 pm

Scarlet

You are one of the special people then, red. I always thought that doctors (my own father included) treated the ER staff like lower caste people... and a good ER nurse is worth her weight in emeralds.

1:32 pm

redturtlehead

well, in side the ER, we treat each other really well, so no problems in my book...

1:32 pm

Scarlet

You do know that you are going to live in the lightning capitol of America, right?

1:32 pm

redturtlehead

I didi not know that!

1:32 pm

Scarlet

You do now!

1:32 pm

redturtlehead

Well, best not to run int he rain with an ipod then....

1:33 pm

Scarlet

I wouldn't run outside with even one cloud in the sky... it comes fast and it's powerful.

1:34 pm

redturtlehead

Well,hopefully, there will not be any clouds for the hot summer...but I am not counting on it.

1:34 pm

Scarlet

It's a very flat state and you will be smack dab in the center (well, Orlando is) and the storms are awesome.

1:34 pm

redturtlehead

So, I am hoping to run a lot, but we'll see. I am so so sore after this little race...

1:35 pm

Scarlet

I sat in my hotel room in Orlando... for three hours watching the most amazing electrical storm... this was three weeks after 9/11...

1:35 pm

Scarlet

Maybe you overdid it, red. Can you soak and take some ibu's for the achiness?

1:35 pm

magzel

both ac's please

1:36 pm

redturtlehead

Wow. Never been toOrladno before, so this is a new experience...

1:36 pm

Scarlet

No AC words, magz.

1:36 pm

redturtlehead

I really think the issue was that post race, wetooka shower and went hiking, for about 5 hours....

1:36 pm

Scarlet

Yerch.

1:37 pm

magzel

sorry, looking at the wrong papers

1:37 pm

Scarlet

LOL, magzel!

1:37 pm

redturtlehead

It was really neat, we went up to Arches National park, and yesterday we went to Mesa Verde, but a lot of the mesawas closed due to snow pack.

1:38 pm

Scarlet

ARe you travelling with your dog too, red... or is that a really stupid question? LOL

1:38 pm

redturtlehead

1:39 pm

Scarlet

Nice!

1:39 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, it was crazy social for me. We are already talking about doing another one in moab in October, but,we'llsee...

1:39 pm

redturtlehead

Are you feelingless Blah-ey now?

1:40 pm

Scarlet

Where is the Burning Man annual madness, red? I am not confusing you with anyone else, I just remember someone posting that last year... have you heard of it?

1:40 pm

redturtlehead

I've heard o it, but never been, its somewhere out west...

1:40 pm

Scarlet

Yes, I am much less blah-ey now, red... I guess that cleaning the basement is a great leveler! LOL

1:41 pm

redturtlehead

Cool, on the basement, and glad you got it done...

1:41 pm

Scarlet

YOu have some great friends, red... and you all sound very outdoorsy folks... Why do you run?

1:42 pm

redturtlehead

Mostly to keep from being fat. But it is very addicting, so its hard to stop. And it gives e an opportunity to run all over and meet neat people...I do need some other hobbies though...

1:43 pm

2:16 pm

Aloyisius

ooh, send her over here when she finishes, Lady..

2:17 pm

LadyNatts

2:17 pm

Scarlet

Not much happening here now, LadyN... we did have a rather active hazing of a newbie earlier... his name is BrokenStasis, and Haz enquired as to his status... he is 21, handsome and talented.

2:17 pm

LadyNatts

cool!

2:17 pm

Aloyisius

sorry I missed that, Scarlet!

2:17 pm

2:19 pm

For someone that young, he handled some rather suggestive comments quite well... Michigan, Lady.

2:19 pm

Scarlet

Exactly, Aloy... it's a trip down the rabbit hole every day... LOL

2:19 pm

LadyNatts

that's far enough...

2:19 pm

Scarlet

LOL

2:20 pm

Aloyisius

LOL, scarlet.. so true, so true

2:20 pm

Scarlet

I LOVE this place!

2:20 pm

Aloyisius

am struggling to imagine a ho8.60 horse...

2:21 pm

Aloyisius

kinda hard to gallop

2:22 pm

Aloyisius

but it could walk, albeit stiltedly

2:22 pm

Aloyisius

unless it were overweight

2:22 pm

LadyNatts

perhaps it's just used as a general term, to describe animals that do not have them...

2:22 pm

Aloyisius

ah so, Lady..

2:22 pm

Scarlet

And full of Twinkies...

2:23 pm

Scarlet

Maybe it's an archaic term meaning not shoed...??

2:23 pm

Aloyisius

did you sneak into the stable and feed them Twinkies?

2:23 pm

Scarlet

MOI??? Heaven fofend!

2:24 pm

Aloyisius

they have white foam on their nozzles

2:25 pm

Aloyisius

must have me6.24 when they chewed the twinkies

2:25 pm

Scarlet

And all that messy burping...

2:25 pm

LadyNatts

Aloy, your use of "albeit" reminds me of one of my favourite poems.

2:25 pm

Aloyisius

tell me, Lady..

2:25 pm

Scarlet

Please?

2:26 pm

Aloyisius

pretty please

2:26 pm

LadyNatts

Just a sec... it's rather long, and I haven't memorized all of it

2:26 pm

Scarlet

Do you want a Twinkie?

2:27 pm

Aloyisius

lol... a creme filled one..

2:27 pm

Scarlet

I love the banana creme thingamabobs... full of high cholesterol and saturated fats... mmmmm

2:28 pm

Aloyisius

ah, the health food ones

2:28 pm

Scarlet

Some of the college kids down here have a hotline open to their parents up north... to send them TastyKakes... all flavors... it's like feeding the pigeons when the package comes!<LOL\

2:29 pm

Scarlet

LOl, Aloy...

2:29 pm

Aloyisius

we will have to put some of them in the pb

2:31 pm

Aloyisius

LadyNatts

The Embarrassing Episode of Little Miss Muffet... by Guy Wetmore Carryl

2:31 pm

Aloyisius

making a note of that, Lady

2:32 pm

LadyNatts

Little Miss Muffet discovered a tuffet (which never occurred to the rest of us)

2:32 pm

LadyNatts

and as 'twas a June day and just about noon-day, she wanted to eat, like the best of us

2:32 pm

LadyNatts

Her diet was whey, and I hasten to say that it

2:33 pm

LadyNatts

sorry... Her diet was whey and I hasten to say that it's healthy and people grow fat on it.
The spot being lonely that lady not only discovered the tuffet but sat on it.

2:34 pm

LadyNatts

A rivulet gabbled beside her and babbled,
As rivulets always are thought to do,
And dragon flies sported around and cavorted,
As poets say dragon flies ought to do;

2:34 pm

LadyNatts

When, glancing aside for a moment, she spied
A horrible sight that brought fear to her,
A hideous spider was sitting beside her,
And most unavoidably near to her!

2:35 pm

LadyNatts

and here's my favourite part....

2:35 pm

LadyNatts

Albeit unsightly, this creature politely
Said, "Madam, I earnestly vow to you,
I’m penitent that I did not bring my hat. I
Should otherwise certainly bow to you."

2:35 pm

LadyNatts

Though anxious to please, he was so ill at ease
That he lost all sense of propriety,
And grew so inept that he clumsily stept
In her plate -- which is barred in Society.

2:36 pm

LadyNatts

This curious error completed her terror;
She shuddered, and growing much paler, not
Only left tuffet, but dealt him a buffet
Which doubled him up in a sailor knot.

2:36 pm

LadyNatts

It should be explained that at this he was pained;
He cried, "I have vexed you, no doubt of it!
Your fist’s like a truncheon." "You’re still in my luncheon,"
Was all that she answered. "Get out of it!"

2:37 pm

LadyNatts

And THE MORAL is this: Be it madam or miss
To whom you have something to say,
You are only absurd when you get in the curd
But you’re rude when you get in the whey!

2:37 pm

Scarlet

Delightful, LadyNatts!!

2:37 pm

Aloyisius

BRAVO, LadyNatts... thundering applause.. that was great! ty so much for sharing such a delightful poem! still chuckling..

2:38 pm

LadyNatts

:D... thank you, thank you. I just love his use of words in that.

2:38 pm

fatandsassy

that was great

2:38 pm

lynxxx

TY LadyN so clever!

2:38 pm

tygerbryght

very nice 'pome' but curds & whey aren't fattening - that's cottage cheese!

2:38 pm

Scarlet

What a gem!

2:39 pm

tygerbryght

but I'm grinning, all the same :D

2:39 pm

LadyNatts

can be fattening, tyger... depends on the level of fat in the milk used to make it

2:39 pm

sadie52

LadyNatts that was real good ty :)

2:39 pm

LadyNatts

my mom used to make homemade cottage cheese

don't think I'd mind being six again (and was never a size six, except maybe when I was 5yo, as I was always the tallest girl in my grade, until HS.

2:43 pm

tygerbryght

oops, forgot )

2:43 pm

Scarlet

HIs best friend sent it to him, beloved to me, and on it goes into cyberspace~ I don't want to be six again... I'm ten times that, and would not change a moment of the pain and the glory!

2:44 pm

tygerbryght

got a couple of years on you, scarlet, and most days I certainly wouldn't change, since we know we couldn't take any of the painfully-gained wisdom back with us to an earlier age :(

2:44 pm

Scarlet

Speaking of pain... Lynxxx, are you out there? I cannot find the last RE5/12 to save my skin. Right before taking a breather.
