Hillary its horrid for them They haven't even had below 30 at night. I think i would move to Copper Pedie for the temp
1:32 am
hillary
people go psycho here when it doesn't get below 20 overnight... i cant imagine coping with 30.
1:33 am
herinfernallady
Agreed to that Hilary
1:33 am
jillibus
funny, eh? I show pix of Montreal's huge snowfall and the Aussies are wailing about heat.
1:34 am
hillary
yes, well we'll probably be whinging about the cold in a few months time... but it's all relative of course. 'cold' here is a maximum below 17.
1:34 am
herinfernallady
not wailing both extremes give people cabin fever

though I am not a fan of rowling's style of writing. But the story rocks.

hey Jilli - I didn't recognise the charming young lady either - but just fell across the word

lol jilli... well, I am not following them, perhaps because I am old school and use my icon to be recognisable... or because I am lazy... or because I still have to reinstall paintshop pro...

Just1, a news show here (MSNBC) had two of her friends on tonight. They were musicians who had worked with her, said she was perfectly nice, talented person and they had no idea that... They said "she deserves success" in the music biz.
2:34 am
Just1Mar
I guess I'm just so sick of the story.....my gawd how the media grabs onto something and just won't let go......
2:35 am
jillibus
ok, I'll change it
2:35 am
Ankhorite
Just1, part of it is convenience... it happened in a major media market, very easy for them to have a huge camera presence there.
2:35 am
Just1Mar
we can get that station here if we pay for it....I don't ank
2:35 am
Ankhorite
I thought it was a good one, Jilli.
2:36 am

lol... I have no idea what you guys talk about. Must have missed another news item. Small miracle since I don't watch the news.

the press has the bucks to be anywhere...anytime...anyhow
2:37 am

the next scandel will come along soon and he and his shenanigans will be history....
2:37 am

what are shenanigans?
2:37 am
Ankhorite
Sprite, a Democratic law-and-order governer here got caught paying $5,500 per hour to a prostitute; he had done so with various women for over ten years. And he is famous for PROSECUTING prostitution rings such as the one he used. He has been forced to resign. His replacement is both black and blind, big firsts for US governors.
2:37 am
Just1Mar
lol.....misdeeds
2:38 am
Ankhorite
Sprite=shenanigans, monkey business. Used to mean play, as in children's play.
2:38 am
Ankhorite
governor, whoops, my spelling!
2:38 am
jillibus
sprite, the Governor of New York State was caught with a high priced "escort" after denouncing such practices -- more to it too
2:39 am
sprite
woot for the replacement. And what an hour price, LOL.
thanks for the explaining of the word too!
But I hope, Ankh, that you are not serious about Sprite=shenanigans ;)
2:39 am
Just1Mar
the scoundrel, the skalliwag, and his shenanigans
2:40 am
Ankhorite
Whoops! My punctuation! Sorry, Sprite. Yeah, it used to mean mischievious play among children, but now, among adults, too.
2:40 am
jillibus
so, sprite, my icon is a picture of the young lady, and a clue or two
2:40 am
Ankhorite
Like antics, but with a more negative feeling.
2:40 am

I love it, all the things I learn from Babble :)
Thanks, dear friends.
2:41 am
sprite
it is a great clue then, jilli! Thanks!@
2:41 am

actually I'm surprised that Rowlings never used any of those words in her books.....they certainly apply!
2:41 am

to stay in the same atmosphere, I found a biblical sin
2:41 am

thanks, sprite -- shall I leave it in, then?
2:42 am
sprite
of course, jilli! It is a great clue icon. And you are under no obligation to only depict nice things ;)
2:42 am
Ankhorite
YW, Sprite... I love the international feeling of Babble chat.
2:42 am
sprite
Just1, must be the only 3 words she did not use, lol. Mahhhhn, can that lady be rich with words.
2:43 am
sprite
so do I, Ankh! It is so much fun. And you are all such patient teachers.
2:43 am
Just1Mar
don't change it on my account jilli...it;s just that I'm not really that much into looking at her that much!
2:43 am
Ankhorite
I just got a word and I don't see how. I want to ask but I don't want to give away the word if you haven't got it and don't want a clue. It's the NO5,12... how did I do that?
2:43 am
sprite
look at mine or Ankh's, Just1 :) They are so cute.
2:43 am
Just1Mar
and the icon certainly does not fit you jilli! (nor would I want it to )
2:44 am

Oh, nevermind, I finally see it!!!
2:44 am

Oh hey, I'm the only US person in chat... so I can say... reallyquicklike... I was for Hillary and now I'm for Obama, not that any of you care, but there it is. A lifetime feminist, and I am so disappointed in her behavior that I cannot support her election.
2:46 am

lollllll Ankh... I am definitely a little older... like errrrr 31 years or so

I don't know who I would support if I could vote ank.....Obama just seems to be more of an evangelist then a man with policies and platforms :(
2:49 am
Ankhorite
Thank you, Jilli. And Geraldine Ferraro now, too... I went to see her speak when she ran for Veep 25+ years ago. I stood on one 5" wide piece of marble edging and clung to another to stay up. Women passed me their little daughters to hold up to see her... and now this. She needs her heart washed out with soap.
2:50 am
sprite
you can do it for her in the sin bin, Ankh ;)
2:50 am
Ankhorite
Well, Just1, there is that -- but -- I look at what a disorganized and desperate and frankly egotistical mess her campaign is, and I wonder about how bad her White House would be. And I have seen Obama go from NOTHING to having a well-oiled, efficient machine in all fifty states. The man can organize, indeed he can.
2:50 am
jillibus
I rather go along with Just1 re Obama
2:51 am

Clinton already betrayed me once, and I was willing to forgive her while holding my nose. Her "health care plan" of 1993 was NOT. It was a plan to guarantee insurance industry profits forever, with a horrible, huge, costly, and totally unneeded beaurocracy.
2:52 am
Just1Mar
well ank I certainly admire your dedication......when it comes to Canadian politics I'd rather watch paint dry or grass grow
2:52 am
Ankhorite
I was a legislative analyst back then and I read the whole dang bill... if I recall correctly, it was over 400 pages.

Obama's health care is not universal

and when I click on English it doesn't change
2:55 am
Ankhorite
Ah, enough, I'll stop. :) But there it is: I live in DC, I've done politics for a living, I am a feminist who wanted to support her, and her clumsy campaign worried me, and now her foul tactics embarrass me. And I haven't seen any fatal flaws in him yet.

door = through, or by

Oh, Just1, tinyurl.com takes any long long web address and shrinks it down. And "door Cass" seems to be part of Sprite/Jirelle's pen name.
3:05 am

just, are you referring to tinyurl?

pe5.12 sounds like a type of pasta - the 6 is a latin plural of the 5

oh really?

I think both spellings are valid in enable... it is always a surprise, lol.

3:21 am
herinfernallady
Jill book?
3:22 am
jillibus
sprite, I'm trying to get one sent to the Netherlands but getting the money is a real snag, it seems. Cheques are not used, money orders cost $25, wire transfers cost the recipient $14 and the sender even more, I'm told. and the postage is horrendous, so all that adds up to about the price of the book!
3:22 am
sprite
lolol lynxxx... I stand corrected. Though I will always remember it by thinking 'pasta' :)
3:22 am

I may have to boot off soon pc is toasting up

Ho babblers -- any techies around to help (I'm barely computer literate). Tried working on Lickety's List for the first time. Have 111 words and copied them or transferred to boxes at bottom. Is there a way to get them from there to here? Only the first word on my list appeared in the Add Word under the grid.
4:26 am

since I didn't change my icon here is a clue for today: en 7/28 many hunters (and poachers) go to Africa to try to catch lions; they often use large pits covered with brush, leaves, etc. to en 6/28 (trap / catch) the lions

4:34 am

jwr - its probably better to enter the words into babble first and then do Bulk Transfer to the list...then enter the missing words straight into Babble. You can do subsequent Balk Adds into the list at anytime - even partial - say by one letter

Go carlee, that's quite the agenda you have going! But grit your teeth and get through it and you will feel SO virtuous!

Angelsong

6:59 am
LoriP

7:07 am
Haz1558
I feel really bad - I was on earlier, enquired with her about the weather and then disappeared before I had a chance to hear her reply. A combination of next door's pup escaping, our dog going bananas, husband coming to comandeer the computer - I'll have to apologise when I see her next.
7:08 am
LoriP
G'd morning Haz. Haven't seen Flask since i surfaced. Later carlee
7:08 am
Angelsong

7:22 am
nancethefan
hey montreal & green
7:23 am
montreal13
g'morning green ! - how bad is he ?
7:23 am
AsGreen
not bad at all, just needs some downtime I think. All this nice weather and time change has caused some heavy duty playing!
7:24 am
montreal13
gotcha ! - a day of rest will do him good then
7:24 am

hmm, it's too tempting - I think I need to do it! :)
7:25 am
nancethefan
sorry - i can't help - i just got here
7:25 am
montreal13
go for it green !!
7:25 am
periwinkle
hi there monty
7:26 am

tr 10 is the person that takes one language and tyrns it in to another.
7:27 am

thanks so much LoriP
7:27 am
LoriP
*turns, even
7:27 am
montreal13
tx lori - should have known since i am one "slap myself with large flounder"
7:27 am
LoriP
cr 8 45 is a plural, god was supposedly the cr***** of the earth
7:27 am
nancethefan
hey & thank you lori
7:28 am
LoriP
cr 8/45 cr + 2nd vowel + spelling for 2 thousand lbs
7:28 am
montreal13
tx again lori !
7:28 am
AsGreen
mont - I was just reading your profile - interesting...but leaves me with one question that really has nothing to do with you, but clearly you'll know the answer:
7:28 am
LoriP
et 8/45, plural of a fuel (7/8 combo)
7:28 am
periwinkle
thanks Lori got the cr8's
7:29 am
periwinkle
thanks Lori have all the 8's and the 10 now
7:29 am
nancethefan
thank you again, lori
7:29 am
AsGreen
does speed have anything to do with the point system? I've finished the grid every time I've done it most days in the past month for example, but my rankings are low....
7:29 am
LoriP
Y'all are very welcome.
7:30 am
Jandy
Thanks Lori (coming up to spit in my goggles again, since they are fogged up by all the action!) 115 words so far! Back into it....
7:30 am
LoriP
LOL Jandy. Glad you're de-steamed now.... Go go go!
7:30 am
AsGreen
ooooh, my first word was the 10 - a good way to start (even if it was with a clue!)...tx Lori!
7:31 am
montreal13
not sure green - i don't believe speed has an impact - but the "cream of the crop" and "who's hot " rankings are a bit strange to figure out - for sure, if you start a grid and don't finish, the "who's hot" ranking takes a beating...
7:32 am
periwinkle
I have finished all grids for a long time and my ranking in who's hot went down two points while others seemed to up a point, don't understand the system
7:32 am
LoriP
I don't look at the rankings, so I haven't got a clue asgreen
7:33 am
AsGreen
well, the rankings never mattered to me - (ahem, maybe a little) - but I am curious! I just don't like to start if I know I won't finish. So the other day when it was small - under a hundred - I wouldn't even dip my toe in b/c I was spending the day in NYC.....anyway - I've started, so now I better dive in before my son comes down from resting! *****splash*****
7:35 am
AsGreen
oops - sorry
7:35 am
AsGreen
lol - I thought something went in, nm
7:36 am
LoriP
***not touching that comment with a 10 foot pole***
7:36 am
montreal13
for example, my "Who's hot" score was at 1030 when one day, i lost my internet connection halway thru a grid - did not come back all day - i checked the rankings the next day and "who's hot" was at 1015 - and it stayed there for weeks even though i was finishing grids every day - i don't think my "cream of the crop" ranking was affected...
7:36 am
montreal13
lol lori
7:36 am
AsGreen
thx Lori....
7:36 am
periwinkle
mont, my who's hot was 1030 for many weeks and now is down to 1029 even though I always finish the grids
7:36 am
AsGreen
this is a fun grid so far - good words!
7:37 am
AsGreen
well gang - I'm in the 800s I think - I was in the 900s for a bit ... ****deep breath, goes back in***
7:37 am
LoriP
It's a feel good grid. Esteem builder. :-)
7:38 am
periwinkle
I am stuck with 120 words to finds, chores to do around here :(. *shudder* may even vacuum
7:38 am
montreal13
hard to figure out peri... i made a little 10 day study for a sample of players on the "Cream of the crop" score - will publish soon....
7:38 am
periwinkle
ok mont would love to see it
7:39 am
montreal13
will do it shortly peri
7:39 am

LoriP
Yah Angel. It was a gooder.
7:47 am

7:47 am
Atalante

7:48 am
Angelsong
I'm finding words in groups of four or five at a time.
7:49 am
nancethefan

7:49 am
montreal13

7:49 am
AsGreen
I know - he's just not a napper at all - oops - here he is now!
7:49 am
LoriP
Glad I'm not alone on that whole typing thing nance. :-) Sooooo, Flask, did ya' get it?

7:50 am
Jandy

7:51 am
nancethefan
i'm big enough to admit i make typos - and at times, lots of them. But right now, i do believe there is a problem with my keyboard - i push the letters and some appear and some don't. have y'all had a keyboard do that to you before?

7:54 am

7:56 am
Anniebrook
Scrabbler, I feel as if Callie is a part of my life, you have made her seem so and I feel so sad for you and her and in a way, for me....she will be sorely missed by all of us
7:56 am
Atalante
she will! well said ANnie
7:57 am
Anniebrook
Yes, I do feel that way...Hobbit is a part of my Babble life too
7:57 am

nance's in the money
7:57 am
Scrabbler
Lower spine arthritis----> urinary dribbling----> urine scald because she cannot groom herself. I am cleaning her and applying ointment. She is hopping around and she ate this AM, but I know she is an old lady with limited time left with me.
7:57 am
Atalante
Callie, Hobbit, Spangle, Merp ... some animals are distinct presences here!
7:58 am
Scrabbler
TY for your kind words, Annie + Atalante. I feel attached to all of the Babble pets too.
7:59 am
Scrabbler
Callie is like a puppy down here--she follows me everywhere, greets me at the bottom of the stairs in the AM, follows me to the stairs when I go up, etc, and my daily routine includes her. Losing a pet is tough stuff!
7:59 am
Atalante
I never realised that rabbits could be so interactive until hearing about Callie
7:59 am
Anniebrook
scrabbs, Losing a pet is terrible...
8:00 am

Not really here as just going out but wanted to add my voice to Annie and Atas words.
8:00 am
nancethefan
scrabbler - y'all both are in my prayers - i had a huge dog (they are quite different from small ones & seem more people-like t me). i had to put him down 1 1/2 years ago - total loss of back legs & he was in pain - i stil mourn him & talk to him
8:00 am
Scrabbler
TY, FM and Nance.

8:04 am
Scrabbler

8:07 am
Anniebrook

8:17 am
Scrabbler
Callie is approaching the end of her life, I am afraid. She has lower spine arthritis, is dribbling pee, getting urine scald...I have to take care of her skin carefully. When she stops eating I will know that it is time to euthanize her. But she is still hopping around and eating.
8:18 am
Atalante
how old is she, scrabs?
8:19 am
nancethefan
atalante - have you ever considered having your artwork placed on a grid with color icon listings for needleworkers to purchase your beautiful designs? - or would you rather not have your art displayed in that type of market?

Judi
Better yet, just draw a pair on with a magic marker.
8:36 am
Jacula
Nipping off to do some work and to make a banoffi pie. BBL.

I should use up an old loaf of bread, so French toast is a good idea.
9:03 am

9:03 am

Come on over, Babblers, let's have a yummy brunch with a big spread, then we can go for a hike!

sounds like a great idea scrabbler
9:04 am

I've already done my hike for the day!
9:04 am

i did the prettiest clear plate craft years ago - i found two lovely flowering pictures in magazines, and cut them out. Next i modgepodged eacch picture onto each different plate. When dried; i paited the back black. They turned out beautiful. what an easy project for such a fantastic outcome. if any of you don't know how to perform this craft, i will be more than happy to help you. in fact, i may make more. They really look nice on walls using plate hangers.
10:45 am

I am using Mod Podge too--great stuff.
10:46 am
lilliann
have you been doing any skiing lately scrabs.......or bungy jumping, throwing yourself out of an aeroplane etc?!?!

10:47 am

10:47 am

I skied last weekend--Saturday, but my friends are all in Florida so I won't go al5 today--too quiet on the trails, but tomorrow I will go al5 as there will be more people and I will feel safer.
10:47 am
nancethefan
it doesn't stay sticky tho when it dries
10:47 am
flosey
is that something you buy at craft store?
10:48 am
nancethefan
yes flosey
10:48 am
raelite
they have it at wal-mart too
10:48 am
nancethefan
the clear plates also
10:48 am
flosey
sounds interesting, must try that
10:48 am
nancethefan
hey raelite
10:48 am
Scrabbler
And, Lill, I have never bungee-jumped or sky-dived---too risky for me.
10:48 am
raelite
comes in matte, shiny, sparkly, and crackle finish
10:48 am
flosey
oh crackle sounds interesting
10:48 am
lilliann
is it pva glue nance?
10:49 am
Scrabbler
I have not seen the crackle type, raelite, but I will go to WalMart later and look.
10:49 am
flosey
oh scrab, my daughter is a little dare devil - but when she went bungy jumping, she called me after the fact
10:49 am
raelite
i believe it is a spray modge...not 100% sure...you can get a crackle effect with regular modge too though
10:49 am
nancethefan
they have really improved their line since i first began using it
10:49 am
lilliann
i've done it with paper napkins onto glass and that looks nice nance
10:50 am
lilliann
did she enjoy it flosey?
10:50 am
Scrabbler
A few years ago I saw a 5 ft dresser at the end of someone's driveway, for disposal, and I took it home for a future project. I am doing decoupage with pics from Birds & Blooms magazine.
10:50 am
raelite
yes, it's great not having to mix water into white glue...modge is loose enough to be used with a paintbrush
10:50 am
flosey
it was a one time thing - happy to say
10:50 am
Scrabbler
Flosey--did she call to tell you that she survived?
10:50 am
lilliann
that sounds lovely scrab....it will look beautiful when finished
10:51 am
flosey
lol bragging I think
10:51 am
Scrabbler
I would love the sky dive but not the landing (with or without a working parachute).
10:51 am
Scrabbler
My fantasy is to make extra money as an artist/crafter.
10:52 am
flosey
do you lacquer the finished product then?
10:52 am
lilliann
i love to make my own cards and i cross stitch and do other crafts
10:52 am
raelite
(modge acts as a lacquer)
10:52 am
Scrabbler
No, I just do an extra coat of the Mod Podge.
10:52 am
lilliann
i find it very relaxing
10:53 am
flosey
can it be washed after it's dried then?
10:53 am
Scrabbler
Yes, it can be wiped down. I love doing decoupage and painting--very meditative.
10:53 am
raelite
yep: washed, dried, left out in the rain
10:53 am
flosey
wow, interesting way to dress up an old tray
10:53 am

raelite
hello ardilla
10:54 am

Yippee! 128-128 now!

10:55 am

raelite - try the plates then - they don't take anytime to make

That horrible news to have to past on.
11:01 am
Scrabbler
I agree, Flosey. Ata--Ty for that link--it will give me more ideas!
11:01 am
bubba218
Scrabs, where was the primary?
11:01 am
Atalante
she does *amazing* things. and very commercially successfully
11:02 am
Scrabbler
Bubba, it was SO hard!! The orthopod was going to wait until after surgery and I decided to prepare them.
11:02 am
AsGreen
oh scrabs, I'm so sorry to hear that news
11:02 am
bubba218
If there are mets to the chest, is surgery necessary, or is it time to enjoy some time together
11:03 am
Scrabbler
In his foot--cuneiforms. Initial though was aneurysmal bone cyst, but the CXR showed mets everywhere.
11:04 am
Scrabbler
A histological dx will be made and then decisions will go from there. I am sure the oncologists will "try" chemo.
11:04 am
bubba218
Are they going to amputate. It has been my experience that if there are multiple distant mets, then amputation is not a cure. They should go to disneyland and live a little.
11:04 am
Scrabbler
No amputation--just a biopsy to establish the dx.
11:05 am
Scrabbler
Does he have ANY chance for long-term survival?
11:05 am
bubba218
Intelligent choice. Then they should think long and hard if chemo is the answer. So many times it just makes the last days misery rather tahn giving any chance of cure.
11:06 am
bubba218
Once they grade the tumor they can decide, what protocol to follow, unfortunately too many times the family is looking for miracles instead of quality of life.
11:07 am
Scrabbler
Here is what makes this even more tragic: in July 1998 the mom was pregnant with baby #3 and she was severely toxemic---> stat C-section to deliver a premie, then mom died. This family has already been devastated once.
11:07 am

This is so unfair.
11:08 am

awww Scrabbler how sad this family has been through so very much
11:08 am

Scrabbler
They are spending this weekend at a water park/hotel, as a family. Dad remarried--total of 6 kids with Ben as the oldest, much admired brother.
11:08 am

Hopefully the tumor will be very low grade and amenable to chemo.

11:10 am
bubba218
Did he have any pain with the cuneiform mass? Did he have stress fracture, expansile bone pain, etc?
11:11 am
Scrabbler
Not much pain at all--he has been playing ice hockey all season. BUT--mass started last summer, he has lost 20 lbs, and is anemic now.
11:11 am
mkg
gosh i dont know how to spell hello in hawaii! yuk!
11:11 am
Atalante
are cuneiform masses literally cuneiform?
11:11 am
Scrabbler
I believe so, Ata, LOL.
11:12 am
bubba218
No, the there are three cuneiform bones in the foot. Medial, central and lateral, they attach the medial metatarsals to the rear foot
11:12 am
Scrabbler
The orthopedic oncologist was not very friendly when we spoke yest.
11:12 am
bubba218
They are cueniform shaped
11:12 am
Atalante
ah ok. that makes sense!
11:12 am
Atalante
cuneiform is such a good word
11:12 am
mkg

11:12 am

The tumor involves the medial + lateral ones.

11:48 am
raelite

11:48 am

11:50 am
EvaNadine
we DVR'ed it...i wonder if its possible to do anything with that...heh
11:50 am
Atalante
probably, if you know how. sounds a bit too techie to me!
11:50 am
raelite
you can - but you have to hook your computer up to your DVR
11:51 am
raelite
it should have a USB port
11:51 am
EvaNadine
i could probably figure it out....i think im just ever-so-techie enough...

Shoves pacifyer in Uni's mouth. I did say you would have a resonable explanation Haz.
2:08 pm
carleekat

2:08 pm
jillibus
Well, it's all FM's fault :)
2:08 pm
Scarlet
Apparently, you are, Haz. I think you and carleekat need to sit down and discuss...

I bet Scarlet isn't getting a phone call about a ewe lambing.
2:16 pm
MonkeyGames
Also half watching a dog trianing show. It just makes me so... derisive and depressed... I guess... to see a 4-pound pug hauling someone down the street like there's no tomorrow! My dog weighs 51 kilos and walks politely on-lead (barring really interesting distractions).

That's true. But once we get the webcams up and running there'll be no hiding place.

None but for the grace of CGI.

Looks like I successfully wore the dog out. She just stood up and groanded pleasantly, blinked sleepily at me, and collapsed again with one of theose sighs only a relaxing dog can generate.
2:38 pm
MonkeyGames
Groanded? I'll be off to bed soonish.
2:39 pm
LadyNatts
looks as though the dog is not the only one worn out... hehe
2:40 pm
MonkeyGames
True enough. But at least I had today off. There was an e-mail that the new boss is tired of everyone handing the flu around abd anyone with a symptom of any kind should stay home. I have a bit of a sore throat, nothing more. I got to stay home.
