herinfernallady

5:54 am

ardilla

scrabbs!!! *hugs*

5:54 am

mrpresident

ah, no infern... they will move them to another store... dont fret

5:54 am

mrpresident

5:55 am

herinfernallady

5:55 am

P.J.

holy cow!!:(

5:55 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres glad you and yours loved the chocolate goodness

5:55 am

ardilla

hi hodag

5:56 am

herinfernallady

The $1000 is the snippy snippy and the shots.

5:56 am

mrpresident

Good Morning friends....I

ardilla

hi lori

5:57 am

herinfernallady

They do. Im not worried. they are just so pretty. Hi Lori

5:57 am

mrpresident

... and this is exactly why I disapprove of pet store holding live animals

5:57 am

mrpresident

morn lori :)

5:57 am

herinfernallady

I just send out happy kitty buying vibes and spoil my cat even more rotten

5:57 am

lori ann

woops, I have adopted all of the pets I have ever owned from an animal shelter. They make wonderful pets!!

5:58 am

P.J.

here it is about $75.00 and I thought that was bad! Zoe will be an inside kitty with the exception of being leash trained.

5:58 am

herinfernallady

I have to leash train the kitty

5:58 am

mrpresident

infer, in the 80's, I would go to the pet shops in the major shopping centres and aske to take the animals home for the weekend... as they were closed from 12pm Sat - 9am Mon, they always accomodated

5:59 am

lori ann

We live in the country and sadly many people over the years, have dropped kittens off near our home and we have taken them all in!!! Thankfully this does not occur much anymore!!!

5:59 am

mrpresident

hodag... it is bullshit how much they charge in pet shops for a mongrel

5:59 am

herinfernallady

I don't like pet stores but this is an independent store. OH Mr Pres way cute. I wouldn't be able to give them back.

5:59 am

pinkhatlil

Hi mr p, lori, herin, hodag and anyone else i missed

5:59 am

lori ann

Oh MrP...that was a wonderful idea!!! Cheers to you!!!

6:00 am

Hi Pink...

6:00 am

ardilla

hints for the dhs pls?

6:00 am

P.J.

hi Loei. I agree merp:)

6:00 am

lori ann

Just started ardilla..sorry

6:00 am

mrpresident

and now... it is appalling to see these animals, no pedigree or nothing! sitting behind a glass screen for months at a time with disgusting prices attached

6:00 am

pinkhatlil

hey ardilla

6:01 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres I agree my parents bought a Staffy from a breeder for about $500 no papers but they got to see the parents and such. People forget about the hip scores and all that when buying a puppy farm dog or cat from the pet store.

6:01 am

mrpresident

who started?? I am just here for the social scene!

6:02 am

mrpresident

btw, had a complication tonight with my central line... had to get a nurse out

6:02 am

lori ann

Mr.P...I refuse to go into any pet store that has live animals behind glass!!! Or just in cages!!! I feel this is sooo wrong!

6:02 am

pinkhatlil

what happened mr p

6:02 am

mrpresident

oh lori! totally agree!

6:02 am

herinfernallady

My friend got her 4 BIG dogs from http://www.dogzonline.com.au

herinfernallady

Mr Pres again and owies

6:03 am

mrpresident

I broke out in an amazing bubbling rash... even though I TOLD the nurse today not to used a certain solution on my skin... It was blistering again and I had a nurse come at 8.40pm to change and fix it

6:04 am

Scrabbler

I am back--was off checking e-mail. Hi all who entered.

6:04 am

pinkhatlil

6:04 am

herinfernallady

My friend has 4 pure breed dogs all rescues. 1 will never be a pet 1 is not child friendly (she was tormented as a pup thus 8 foot high fence and muzzle when she goes and and lots of training, the other 1 dumb as but cute not sure of the new one

6:04 am

herinfernallady

OWIES Mr Pres

6:04 am

P.J.

when you adopt from a shelter you are saving a life! Years ago I helped run this shelter so I know what takes place on both sides! Not always a pretty picture!

6:05 am

ardilla

6:05 am

mrpresident

6:07 am

lori ann

6:07 am

herinfernallady

Yah for calamine lotion. Even though some pharmacies say bar to it

6:07 am

mrpresident

herinfernallady

ardilla

6:29 am

ardilla

herinfernallady

ardilla

only if it was agreed on earlier

6:32 am

herinfernallady

There was no mention of it till this eve so i said don't bother ill catch a bus. I don't have $20 spare ($10 for gas and coffee for the)

6:32 am

Merk

With today's prices, if I asked you to take me to the store, I would offer to pay. If I were invited by someone to go to the store, it would depend on the conversation and how far away the store was.

6:33 am

ardilla

then no

6:33 am

herinfernallady

Oh i do pay gas money if i ask you for a ride but not if you are going to give me a ride. I will buy you a coffee or what ever

9:30 am

Vicuna

(Are you a trouble-maker, Haz?)

9:30 am

nancethefan

The origin of North Carolina's nickname is grounded, at least in part, in one of the state's major products during the Colonial Era -- tar. The tar was made by slowly burning the wood of longleaf pine trees. One legend attributes the name to the laborers who walked out of the woods with the sticky black substance on their shoes. Other stories go back to the Revolutionary War, when North Carolina soldiers continued marching after wading through a river coated with the viscous liquid.
We like the explanation on the state's official web site for its colorful and imaginative dialog. It traces the nickname's source to the Civil War. Retreating soldiers left a column of North Carolinians to battle the enemy alone. Later, the North Carolinians met the fleeing troops and told them for the next battle we'll put tar on your heels to make them stick. Gen. Robert E. Lee, on hearing the story, reportedly exclaimed, "God bless the Tar Heel boys."

Poor Haz. Just put on your tin-foil hat to block out the sewing vibes. (It'll be just like a big he4/d-thimble!)

Very nice, Ata! Did it have a lot of x's in it, too?

10:53 am

ardilla

wow, woot ata!

10:53 am

An airhead wouldn't be able to do that, Atalante.

10:53 am

10:53 am

10:53 am

ardilla

hi jean

10:53 am

Vicuna

Was Ata accused of being an airhe4/6?

10:53 am

Atalante

no x's *sigh*

10:54 am

ardilla

any other clues needed?

10:54 am

Haz1558

Is it possible? Does she not have tinfoil extra status?

10:54 am

Haz1558

No, Ata is no airhead. We were discussing whether it would be worse to talk to the air or to an airhead.

10:54 am

EspritdJean

hi ardilla and everyone

10:54 am

Vicuna

Maybe the aliens abducted her because they wanted her to teach them her secret tin-foil technology?

10:54 am

debjed

Hello Esprit.

Oh, absolutely.

10:55 am

debjed

le6,27 times width = area

10:55 am

Niamh

thanks for the 9's Haz!

10:56 am

Haz1558

Esprit, it builds off le6/27 - a dimension. Find the adjective and make it more so.

10:56 am

debjed

then comparative

10:56 am

ardilla

width, height, le**** (how long) is le6

10:56 am

Atalante

my 9 was against Uni. perhaps she's run away

10:56 am

EspritdJean

ah thank you, all I needed was two strokes with the 2 x 4!

10:57 am

Haz1558

Run away? What an awful thought!

10:57 am

EspritdJean

where do you play scrabble ata?

10:57 am

Vicuna

Aha! Atalante is the sneaky alien who abducted Uni!

10:57 am

10:58 am

ardilla

10:59 am

EspritdJean

atalante kinda said a word

10:59 am

Vicuna

"Somewhere?" You mean you don't even keep track of these things?

10:59 am

Haz1558

You should specify big bra size, ardilla.

11:00 am

Atalante

no ... that's what my evil undersecretary is for

11:00 am

ardilla

ne7 = 1/2 hawaiian goose + alli*****

11:04 am

EspritdJean

fe4/8 to ward off

11:04 am

nancethefan

the fe 4/8s i have are: what a horse eats, take care of myself, runaway

11:04 am

Vicuna

front or back? Top or bottom?

11:04 am

Atalante

don't think I'd want a goose bottom

11:04 am

Haz1558

Or, fe4/8 - fe plus a bit of even's opposite

11:04 am

ardilla

fe + these words are **d (weird)

11:04 am

EspritdJean

run away is from the other F nance

change last vowel to get 2nd re8

11:06 am

Haz1558

Here we are, Outlines of Avian Anatomy by King and McLelland.

11:07 am

Vicuna

I'm thinking that dividing geese is more of a job for the butcher than the vet.

11:07 am

nancethefan

thank y'all - i finished the Os

11:07 am

Atalante

oh great, the french president comes over here to address parliament and speaks in french! cheek!

11:07 am

ardilla

which one nance?

11:08 am

Vicuna

Well, does the prime minister speak French when addressing the French? Our president sure doesn't!

11:08 am

Haz1558

The liver is composed of left and right lobes which join cranially in the midline.... the cranioventral parts of each lobe surround the apex of the he5.

11:08 am

You're right, lizmac. It is about lunchtime, and I think i will.

11:09 am

OrangeCat

good evening everyone. how is everyone

11:10 am

pinkhatlil

thanks ardilla

11:10 am

Atalante

of course not, frnace doesn't have oil

11:11 am

Vicuna

Then you are entirely justified in your "cheek", Ata. However, it is quite common for leaders to address other countries in their own language if they don't know the native language of the other country.

11:11 am

Vicuna

And some leaders know fewer languages than others.

11:11 am

Vicuna

France has olive oil.

11:11 am

Haz1558

Hello OrangeCat.

11:11 am

Atalante

I know, Vi. Was just been tongue-in-cheek in the first place

11:11 am

Vicuna

Yup.

11:13 am

ardilla

but i haave to respect him as my boss

11:13 am

nancethefan

there are entirely too many Ts

11:13 am

Atalante

does he speak spanish?

11:13 am

nancethefan

hey jean

11:13 am

that's difficult when the boss is a cretin

11:14 am

nancethefan

hey atalante

11:14 am

ardilla

spanglish

11:14 am

EspritdJean

bush does not speak any foreign languages

11:14 am

You may have to obey him, ardilla, and you may have to speak circumspectly about him, but you do not have to respect him.

11:16 am

Atalante

good point

11:16 am

Vicuna

Whoops, politics killing the conversation. Back to sewing and tin-foil aliens!

11:16 am

MonkeyGames

Back again just to announce that I just took dog and kid for a walk in th ewoods. Found a coin. Found a coin from 1768. Going to look up how to clean it now. It can go in the cabinet by the wine bottle from 1750.

11:18 am

EspritdJean

11:18 am

nbjasmine

11:19 am

Vicuna

I think I know. His house is in the village, though.
He will not see me stopping here to watch his woods fill up with snow.

11:20 am

MonkeyGames

These are some woods where we can run our dogs at the end of Ramplaan in Haarlem, the Netherlands. Anyway, must trot off and make dinner now!

11:21 am

Niamh

I'm having a busy day... I'll have to chat with you all another time! happy babbling!

11:22 am

Vicuna

Goodbye, Niamh.

11:23 am

Haz1558

Bye Niamh.

11:27 am

JBV

vicuna, you reminded me of a time when I heard that poem read by one of my former professors - it was at the end of a very long and very successful career - and to hear him say those lines at the end "and miles to go before I sleep" was very poignant - He died not long afterwards and we all remember that moment

11:28 am

Vicuna

Poems are like music in that respect. They can be very evocative of a particular moment in a life.

nancethefan

bye haz

11:37 am

Angela

hi nance

11:39 am

Angela

I swear...lawyers can be the most condescending SOBs sometimes.

11:39 am

Vicuna

Sometimes?

11:39 am

Angela

I'm glad I only do this gig once in a while!

11:39 am

Atalante

the rest of the time they are asleep

11:39 am

Angela

lol Vic - most of the time they are fine to work for, just that little hint of a**holery once in a while.

11:40 am

raelite

woo hoo i got a job interview!

11:40 am

Atalante

yay rae!!

11:40 am

Vicuna

Go, rae, go!

11:40 am

Angela

yay rae!! for what job? hopefully not a law office!

11:40 am

raelite

It's for tomorrow though...nope...graphic design

11:41 am

Angela

good for you = and good luck!!

11:41 am

raelite

I had to get all the clothes out of my closet for the exterminator....I don't know what I'm going to wear!

11:41 am

raelite

(we have carpenter ants)

11:41 am

Angela

lol

11:42 am

Angela

I hope they build you something nice, those ants

11:42 am

raelite

yeah me too because right now they are a pain in the @$$ I tell you....I'd rather have lawyers!

11:42 am

Vicuna

Throw together some bizarre combination of random clothes and call it artsy. They'll love you!

11:43 am

nancethefan

i used to own a house that had carpenter ants

11:43 am

nancethefan

boy were they ever busy

11:43 am

raelite

I think that's what I'll do, Vic...they only want me for my portfolio anyway

11:43 am

Angela

uhhhhhhh - no you wouldn't :))))

11:43 am

Vicuna

At least carpenter ants don't charge you for their infestation.

11:43 am

raelite

yeah, they are busy!! they are everywhere too

11:43 am

nancethefan

u can't get rid of them can u?

11:43 am

Angela

playboy was the same with me rae...all about the portfolio...

11:44 am

raelite

well you can kill the nest, apparently, but here on the west coast, they usually will come back

11:44 am

raelite

I hear you, ange :)

11:44 am

Vicuna

(Is nance talking about ants or lawyers?)

11:44 am

Angela

lol vic...dunno

11:44 am

nancethefan

both - lol

11:44 am

nancethefan

ants

11:44 am

Angela

sorry I'm being a smarta$$ - this guy and his paralegal have me all riled up.

11:45 am

Atalante

gfi angela!

11:45 am

raelite

and they are HUGE too...bloody ants

11:45 am

Atalante

and you can say smartass. we won't be shocked

11:45 am

raelite

one of them bit me last night as I was trying to kill it

11:45 am

nancethefan

that's ok - i've always been a smart ass - it's a curse - lol

11:45 am

Angela

? ata ? gfi??

11:45 am

Vicuna

(I really should stop the lawyer bashing. I know a number of very good people who are or have been lawyers. But unfortunately they agree with me in my negative opinions, so it hasn't cured me!)

11:45 am

Atalante

go for it!

11:45 am

Vicuna

It isn't really my ass that's the smart part of me.

11:46 am

Atalante

its your artistic brilliance, we know

11:46 am

nancethefan

is it your big brain?

11:46 am

Angela

I do too Vic- my own personal lawyer is awesome, and I know plenty who are fine, but when you are the worker bee - you are less than dirt.

11:46 am

Angela

AH! thanks Ata!!

11:47 am

Atalante

sorry, I'm so used to using gfi I forget that other people don't necessarily know what I mean!

11:47 am

raelite

oh right...gfi...that's a good one

11:47 am

Angela

no really - no biggie. all I could think of was the electrical outlet!! LOL

11:47 am

Atalante

latest "work of art", Vi: http://elegaer.deviantart.com/art/Rosi
e-80717344

11:48 am

Vicuna

Oooh, let me check it out...

11:49 am

Angela

brb

11:49 am

Vicuna

Oh, Ata, that's absolutely lovely! And all the work that went into the wonderful ears, too! =)

11:50 am

Atalante

oh yes, the ears from hell!

11:50 am

Vicuna

Don't know why you put quotations around "work of art", though. It's for real!

11:50 am

Atalante

its just a copy though, really. I worked from a photo, so I don't really count it. Ish. I think

11:51 am

Vicuna

Are you giving it Rosie's people? They will absolutely treasure it.

11:51 am

Atalante

yes, they've got it. And cried when they saw it :)

11:51 am

Angela

back now

11:52 am

Vicuna

It's a different sort of process from working from life or from the imagination, but it's still making the image new, and that's real art.

11:52 am

Angela

who are rosie's people?

11:52 am

Angela

just being nosey

11:52 am

Atalante

I suppose so ... it still somehow seems "cheating" though!

11:52 am

Vicuna

The people who had a spaniel named Rosie that Ata drew a portrait of, as shown in the link she posted below.

11:52 am

Atalante

some of my friends, they had a dog called rosie

11:53 am

Angela

aw = how sweet!

11:53 am

Atalante

I took Hobbit over to see them at the weekend and they cried again at having a spaniel back in the house. Hobbit was on her best behaviour all weekend and was 100% angelic and cuddly, and we did a lot of good by being there

11:54 am

Angela

wow Ata - that is so beautiful.

11:54 am

raelite

ata- you really captured those gorgeous eyes, well done!

11:55 am

nancethefan

any clues on te 8/45 would be greatly appreciated

11:55 am

Atalante

thank you :) she was such a lovely girl

11:55 am

Vicuna

I know what you mean. I generally feel a little cheating if I just straight copy a single photo, although I very frequently use photos as references. But I still think if you have made something significantly different from the photograph, which you have, then it counts.

11:56 am

nancethefan

anyone out there? LOL

11:56 am

Atalante

copying is quite an art in itself sometimes!

11:56 am

Vicuna

te8/45 - resembling a monster (what a great word!!!)
te + rodent + robot ending

11:56 am

Atalante

and its amazing how you can copy a photograph and still somehow give it more life than the photo does

11:57 am

Vicuna

Exactly. Ergo art.

11:57 am

nancethefan

thank you so much vic

11:57 am

Atalante

ok, I'm persuaded :)

11:57 am

Vicuna

=D

11:57 am

Angela

I am jealous of you all as I can only draw stick figures - and not even that well.

11:58 am

Vicuna

Stick figures worked for Keith Haring! lol

11:58 am

nancethefan

that word isn't in my websters dictionay

11:59 am

nancethefan

i believe the last update to the one i have is 1980

11:59 am

nancethefan

what does it mean y'all?

11:59 am

Atalante

it gets used in medicine as well - te***oma

11:59 am

Vicuna

Well, write it in in the margin, then! I personally intend to use that word three times in conversation today.

12:00 pm

Vicuna

"My children frequently draw te8 figures."

12:01 pm

Atalante

well a foetus gets horribly messed up and consists of tissue with teeth and a limb or something equally ew, that's a te***oma. I think

12:01 pm

Vicuna

"Gracious! That dust bunny is positively te8!"

12:01 pm

Atalante

*when a ...

12:02 pm

Vicuna

My dictionary says te---oma is a tumor made up of different types of tissue.

12:02 pm

nancethefan

thanks y'all

12:02 pm

Atalante

yep! the foetus thing is just a rather extreme example!

12:03 pm

Vicuna

Rather.

12:03 pm

Angela

mmmmm...just ordered take out sushi

12:03 pm

Atalante

Angela

5:20 pm

nDanLia

5:21 pm

herinfernallady

Hey Leigh

5:21 pm

stidmama

5:21 pm

5:22 pm

Mom

Hi Dorritw, from Kentucky

5:22 pm

stidmama

besides, who's depressed? I just spent a LARGE wad on an aquarium and sand and a light (still need a filter and a UV light) for a turtle we are being given...

5:22 pm

kristinc

yes, I can spend someone's money too if they so desire :)

5:22 pm

herinfernallady

My best friend just wired me $20 as i have no money as the b.f owes me $140 and is being dead useless in returning it to me

5:22 pm

stidmama

hello dorrit!

5:22 pm

kristinc

hi dorr, my brother and his wife live in Denmark!

5:23 pm

herinfernallady

Why is it given pets always seem to cost a crap load more than a bought pet

5:23 pm

Gehenna_

lots of snow here, got at least 15 inches of it by far. and more comes all the time.

5:23 pm

npkc

hello my bf wants sex now!!!

5:23 pm

stidmama

rofl... I don't know lady -- but I have decided "free" is no bargain. It's just this turtle comes from one of the boys' former science teachers, so it has "added value"

5:23 pm

herinfernallady

Stid i think the UTB is now a green

5:23 pm

dorritw

Hi kristinc where?

herinfernallady

5:24 pm

lil*monkey

5:24 pm

{MOM} hugs

5:24 pm

JBV

stid - you will enjoy the turtle - we had one for 15 years (!) son "adopted" it from a local pond and it was a cool pet

5:24 pm

stidmama

AH! the last de 6 is a cedar!

5:24 pm

lil*monkey

BRB! BF just got home

5:24 pm

kristinc

Vejle...we have yet to visit, he has just lived there for 6 months or so but his wife is Danish, so it was only a matter of time before she moved home :) We miss them!

5:25 pm

Mom

JBV

unfortunately it has gone to turtle heaven -

5:25 pm

npkc

gent

5:25 pm

stidmama

yes, he has wanted a turtle for years, but we couldn't find one that was affordable... so now it's still not really affordable, just less un-affordable *getting confused at own argument*

5:25 pm

stidmama

they do that, JBV... but at least it had a good home for a while.

5:26 pm

dorritw

Kristinc, my son lives i Massachusets

5:26 pm

herinfernallady

My dad had a land tortoise (is that right) when he lived in Africa as a boy.

5:26 pm

JBV

but once you have the equipment, it doesn't require much upkeep - just the turtle food, etc.

5:26 pm

herinfernallady

functionally, no difference, leigh. just semantics. Reality is if people who have money get scared and stop buying then things get worse faster and stay worse longer... My Tom has a secure job, we can afford our home. Though I don't have as much extra as before the inflation of the past year, I continue to buy little extras when I can.

5:29 pm

Mom

Ren, where is your sister when we need her.
I haven't seen her in ages, Ren

Feather, when I lived near the airport here, I was in my backyard one day and looked up to see the Stealth Bomber overhead!! They were having an airshow, I learned later.

7:50 pm

pam

I am SOOO glad I love the taste, but never wanted to be a drunk, like so many in the family, so I drank what I could and no more... although, I do have a high tolerance, LOLOL

7:50 pm

Krista

Good thinking, Jac. I'd do the same!

7:51 pm

Jacula

I remember when President Bush came over to visit UK they must have changed the flight path to the airport and we had about one plane every 7 or 8 mins going over our house. Nightmare! Another nightmare, in rate-paying terms, was that, because it had been a dry summer and all the grass verges leading into the city were brown, the stupid City Council spend thousands having the verges spray-painted green!

8:06 pm

featherbee

i just glanced out the sliding glass window, and there were monster plane headlights heading toward me!

Jacula

9:17 pm

hurshy

pam said a woooooooord

9:17 pm

hurshy

9:17 pm

jesdraggon

d'oh

9:17 pm

Natasha

I do, but I understand. My friends have been great, so I can't really complain.

9:18 pm

Jacula

hursh - she was looking for $$$$ methinks.

9:18 pm

kje

PB for pam - I think Jacula was in there

9:18 pm

jesdraggon

feesh! thanks jac

9:18 pm

pam

i am in the pb--and since chocolate is not my thing, I am eating kettle corn

9:18 pm

kje

that is ridiculous!

9:18 pm

hurshy

no, i think she was probably an HSP.

9:18 pm

rururocks

bi 5/18?

9:18 pm

Natasha

mmm, kettle corn. maybe I should say a word so I get thrown in the penalty box

9:19 pm

kje

kettle corn with root beer?

9:19 pm

autumn moon

any clues for ge 5 14 the second one? and the last ge 5 16?

9:20 pm

rururocks

thanks

9:20 pm

Jandy

Hi everyone! How are we all?

9:20 pm

kje

like previous with next consanant

9:20 pm

hurshy

lawyering, like sales, is a position that highly sensitive people don't usually go into, but the ones who do are clearly not typical of their profession and perhaps choose it for different reasons, and certainly practice it in different ways. it is likely that most lawyers are thick-skinned, but if an HSP were a lawyer, i could see how that could happen.

9:20 pm

Jacula

bi + double consonant (which with only one of it and the next two letters makes up an animal's home, like a lion, for instance).

9:20 pm

kje

last ge 5 = ge + cheer

9:21 pm

mkg

ty got the ge kje.

9:21 pm

jesdraggon

what's an HSP, hursh?

9:21 pm

mkg

ty got last ge.

9:21 pm

hurshy

a highly sensitive person

9:22 pm

mkg

oh no...........missing gh 6! i thought i had it.

9:22 pm

kje

gh + period of time + vowel

9:23 pm

mkg

like day or like minute or hour?

9:23 pm

jesdraggon

ah. thanks

9:23 pm

Jacula

I think you get two kinds of people that go into law - the sensitive ones who want to help people and make a difference and the ones who just want to punish anyone who doesn't meet their own yardstick for 'what's right'. The story's more complicated than that in the end but all must end up jaded.

9:24 pm

hurshy

no, like the end of an ***

9:24 pm

kje

like the jazz ***

9:24 pm

Natasha

oops, brb

9:24 pm

9:27 pm

chrisk

that clue worked for me - thanks kje

9:27 pm

Jandy

I got it! Thanks kje!

9:27 pm

kje

skinny fish - reverse of what you dust with

9:28 pm

hurshy

ohhh i was thinking sardine

9:28 pm

Jacula

he6 is a seed. he + reverse of a bit of old cloth + personal pronoun.

9:28 pm

kje

sardine? OK

9:28 pm

kje

see jacula's is better : )

9:28 pm

Jandy

Now, anchovie would have been silly...

9:29 pm

kje

and smelly

9:29 pm

Jandy

Yet strangely addictive...

9:29 pm

Jacula

Anchovies? YUK!

9:29 pm

kje

white anchovies with lemon - yum!

9:30 pm

Jandy

They grow on you, Jac! My husband will eat a jar of the ones in oil with chilli if I can find them..

9:30 pm

hurshy

i think this could divide us more than politics

9:30 pm

Jandy

Grin, hursh, another topic to be banned!

9:30 pm

kje

LOL hurshy

9:31 pm

Jacula

You may be right, Hursh. Olives and anchovies, I cannot stand.

9:31 pm

hurshy

doorag doesn't count either???

9:31 pm

Jandy

I think my dog might eat them while we're all out. Just going by his breath....

9:31 pm

hurshy

and what is your marmite stance, jac?

9:31 pm

kje

not like olives!!! so sad

9:31 pm

Jacula

Hursh - I love it! Other Half hates it!

9:31 pm

kje

doorag LOL

9:32 pm

Jandy

Does the no olives rule out martinis, Jac? Double tragedy if so...

9:32 pm

hurshy

some people have martinis with onions, don't they?

9:32 pm

Jacula

Martini is fine if it's dry, Jandy. Hold the olive though!

9:32 pm

rururocks

last de 6/24?

9:33 pm

Jacula

Shaken, not stirred, and NO olive.

9:33 pm

Jandy

I heard on the ABC radio the other night, that when Marmite was launched in Australia (after Vegemite) that Vegemite briefly changed their name to Pawill...

9:33 pm

Jandy

Oh good, Jac.... phew...

9:34 pm

Jacula

rur - de6/24 is a bit like what stops your underarms being pongey.

9:34 pm

kje

de - like what you put under your arms, but minus the last 3 letters

9:34 pm

kje

pongey? UK word?

9:34 pm

ardilla

hi everyone

9:34 pm

kje

hi ardilla

9:34 pm

Jandy

Hi ardilla! How you hopping?

9:35 pm

Jacula

But not quite... same first 4 letters then countrified way (in UK) of saying 'Yes'.

9:35 pm

Jacula

pongey = smelly.

9:35 pm

ardilla

hi everyone

9:36 pm

kje

yea, new word for the day - pongey - sounds just like it should

9:36 pm

Jacula

Hi ardilla. How's the ankle?

9:36 pm

Jandy

onomatapaeic, kje.... if I spelled it right! will have to check now...

9:37 pm

hurshy

oh DEAR

9:37 pm

kje

yes, but don't ask me to spell check that - doesn't quite look right though

9:37 pm

Jacula

What's up, Hursh?

9:38 pm

hurshy

onomatopoeia

9:38 pm

kje

such a braniac!

9:38 pm

Jandy

Nah... I wasn't.... onomatopoeic....

9:38 pm

ardilla

the last 2 hours of chat are scrolling on my screen

9:38 pm

hurshy

what's up is that - well i don't know the details - but apparently walmart is suing a crippled former employee who is in a nursing home for health benefits that they've paid for her...

9:39 pm

Jandy

Ow....

9:39 pm

hurshy

does this company actively seek out ways to get bad PR?

9:39 pm

ardilla

i got to outside today for an appointment

9:39 pm

Jandy

Must be like some time warp, ardilla!

9:40 pm

ardilla

it felt great until i tried to crutch there in 10 minutes

9:40 pm

Jacula

Well they're not a 'caring' company, Hursh.

9:40 pm

ardilla

very dumb of me...now exhausted

9:40 pm

Jacula

Ardilla - you ne4 to slow down for a week or 3 or 4.

9:40 pm

Jandy

Not so easy, ardilla... most women find crutches very challenging...

9:40 pm

ardilla

yes, it was like a time warp

9:41 pm

hurshy

ok but, i mean, what's next? public execution of kittens and puppies?

9:41 pm

Jandy

I kept getting my boobs caught in mine... which says something not good about my boobs, I suspect!

9:41 pm

ardilla

i kept looking at my watch, laptop time, and the chat times...very weird

9:41 pm

kje

in the crutches!?! how did you manage that?

9:41 pm

Jacula

Are the crutches too high/long, ardilla? They often are for women. You can either put them down a notch or two if metal ones or ask for shorter ones, if wooden.

9:42 pm

ardilla

i will be taking taxis for a while

9:42 pm

ardilla

might take a nap shortly

9:42 pm

Jacula

LOL, Jandy. And... OW!

9:42 pm

Jandy

The time warp thing once happened to me with the chat... it didn't scroll, it was just several hours behind reality and it did my head in...

9:43 pm

Jacula

Hursh - probably, if Walmart thinks it's 'justified'.

9:43 pm

ardilla

no the crutches are the right height...i just overextended myself being overconfident

9:43 pm

kje

dishes calling - be back for the flip

9:43 pm

rururocks

first bo 5/16 ? please

9:43 pm

Jandy

Ow was right Jac... I don't have a lot of upper body strength anyway, so I was making a dog's breakfast of it before that little complication!

9:44 pm

Jacula

kje's finally lost the plot... crockery is talking to her.;-)

9:44 pm

Jandy

And she's listening....

9:44 pm

ardilla

physical therapy made me practice with them before i left the hospital to make sure that they were the right height and that i could use them correctly

9:44 pm

hurshy

it bugs me because i kind of need to buy cheap stuff there, but there is going to come a point when the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune will subdue me

9:44 pm

Jacula

Yea, Jandy. Gawd!

9:45 pm

ardilla

if you don't hear from me for a while, i probably passed out :)

9:45 pm

Jacula

ruru - bo + first 3 letters of what's atop your neck.

9:45 pm

Jandy

It's just harder than it looks, ardilla. All well and good for twenty year old sportsmen....

9:45 pm

Jacula

Take it easy, ardilla!

9:46 pm

hurshy

*is ashamed of her selfishness*

9:46 pm

Jandy

Sweetie! Don't do that! Hope you're lying down with your feet well raised and are rattling with medications.

9:46 pm

Jacula

Walmart is evil, Hursh. So are most big conglomorates. Are there any small shops or farm shops where you are?

9:46 pm

Jandy

It's really hard though, hurshy, to find a balance between practicality and morality, I think...

9:46 pm

ardilla

i still haven't figured out how to get these hospital bracelets off my arm

9:47 pm

ardilla

*putting feet up and lying down to chat more comfortably*

9:47 pm

pam

i found that the cvs sales and target sales were better priced, hursh. And, did you know wal mart forces vendors to use different, somewhat smaller sized containers and then charges comparable to the regular, larger sized?

9:47 pm

Jacula

Ardilla - FIND A PAIR OF SCISSORS AND GO 'SNIP!'

9:47 pm

Jandy

Good girl!

9:47 pm

pam

I really hate hte whole wal mart mentality, but was glad they were able to get water to LA and MS after Katrina

9:48 pm

hurshy

i dunno pam, i just... like, i got a pretty sundress there for $2.50...

9:48 pm

Jandy

We don't have walmart here but read some interesting stuff in the press about the amount of control they have in the retail market. It's amazing..

9:48 pm

pam

I am not perfect, but for me, wal mart crosses a line....

9:49 pm

Jacula

Hursh - but your pretty 2.50 sundress was probably made in a sweatshop for less than a penny a week wages by a child of 5.

9:49 pm

autumn moon

walmart is good for wool

9:49 pm

hurshy

:(

9:49 pm

ardilla

i know i'm gonna get a fussy talk from big bro when he finds out what i did today :(

9:49 pm

Jacula

I'm not going to preach though. I see too many others doing that on the net and it's not attractive.

9:50 pm

ardilla

he worries about me a lot

9:50 pm

rururocks

first en please

9:50 pm

Jandy

Nice to have someone looking out for you though, ard.... better than noone caring about you!

9:51 pm

Jacula

ruru - opposite of 'began' or 'started'.

9:51 pm

ardilla

*wondering how/why is my turtle under my pillow*

9:51 pm

ardilla

very true jandy

9:51 pm

harpjane

hello, 147 to go

9:51 pm

Jacula

Hi, harp.

9:52 pm

ardilla

hi harp

9:52 pm

hurshy

wow

9:52 pm

Jandy

I just got the most amazing bargain at Target (pronounced Tarjay) at the end of the summer season... You have to love something reduced from $59.99 to $2.86... made my day! You would have liked it hurshy...

9:52 pm

rururocks

had that one..put it in the wrong place thank you

9:52 pm

Jacula

You must be desperate, Harp. You came bursting out from behind those potted palms!

9:52 pm

Jandy

Good question, ard... lucky you gave her a bath!

9:53 pm

hurshy

the lady that walmart sued, walmart won, and less than a week after that, her son was killed in iraq. and she's brain damaged, so she doesn't really know about any of it, which may be the best news in her story. this may be the saddest thing i have ever heard.

9:53 pm

ardilla

that's quite a deal!

9:53 pm

Jandy

Hi harp!

9:53 pm

Jandy

I love rummaging through the chaos and finding really good buys... it's the thrill of the chase....

9:53 pm

harpjane

why on earth did walmart sue her?

9:54 pm

Jacula

2 more reasons to avoid Walmart!

9:54 pm

harpjane

not desparate yet, but i just started for what is supposed to be the home stretch....

9:54 pm

hurshy

there was a clause in her contract (and apparently many companies have this clause) that if you win damages to pay for health treatment, your employer can then sue you to get back the money THEY paid for your treatment.

9:54 pm

herinfernallady

Ardila: http://tinyurl.com/yuh6p4 or http://tinyurl.com/2fmpbe
instead of your real turtle

9:54 pm

Jacula

Well, your entrance was somewhat verbose for you, Jane. LOL

9:55 pm

phandmd

good evening.

anyone have a clue for the FL 6?

9:55 pm

harpjane

so, she sued someone else and won damages?

9:55 pm

Jandy

I have 87 to go and if I have any chance at all of finishing I will need to put my head down and the other end up... not sure how much I care today... though I am on a finishing streak...

9:56 pm

Jacula

fl6 = f + what the eye sees through.

9:56 pm

hurshy

she won damages from the semi-truck that hit her. someone must have got the damages on her behalf, since she's brain damaged.

9:56 pm

phandmd

thnx Jac.

9:56 pm

Jacula

y/w, phan.

9:56 pm

rururocks

last ga please?

9:57 pm

hurshy

maybe her son, who then died in iraq, fought to get the money for her...

9:57 pm

Jacula

ruru - last ga is like a crocodile but short form.

9:57 pm

Jandy

Aside from the Walmart component, this story is terribly sad by itself!

9:58 pm

harpjane

ok, so more or less, that's double jeopardy, and if the trucker's insurance company paid her, then her regular insurance company should be reimbursed, right?

9:58 pm

Jacula

Begins 'alli'...

9:58 pm

rururocks

duh...duh.....duh...... thanks jac

9:58 pm

Minveryork

Does anyone have a clue for the ge 6/24 word please

9:58 pm

Jacula

y/w, ruru. No fish tonight, unless you're hungry.

9:58 pm

ardilla

very cute, herin ty

9:58 pm

hurshy

well, except that, i mean, she still needs 24 hour care, so, and walmart sued her for MORE than she won...

9:59 pm

Minveryork

Never mind! I just got the ge 6/24 word. Thank you!

9:59 pm

herinfernallady

Hurshy. THey do that here with compensation and the Government payments

9:59 pm

Jacula

Min - army officer minus his final 'l'.

9:59 pm

harpjane

ne7?

9:59 pm

herinfernallady

Thought youd like that Ardilla

9:59 pm

Jandy

Feel free, though, cause I still don't have it!

9:59 pm

pam

Her lawyer took like 60%.

10:00 pm

pam

Then, walmart wants the money they paid out.

10:00 pm

Jacula

ne7 is the one who denies or makes things worth nothing.

10:00 pm

hurshy

no, not 60%, she won 700,000 and there was 417,000 left after lawyer, and walmart sued her for 470,000.

10:00 pm

Jacula

ne + the not a croc again!

10:00 pm

pam

Would seem fair if she had more than that, but since what wlamart wants would wipe her out..

10:00 pm

harpjane

makes me want to make friends with a lawyer!

10:00 pm

harpjane

thanks jac

10:00 pm

pam

Oh, hursh. earlier, on cnn, the number was higher than that, I thought...

10:01 pm

Jacula

Makes me want to shoot a Walmart lawyer!

10:01 pm

rururocks

ok last ge please..can't find it

10:01 pm

Jacula

y/w, Harp.

10:01 pm

hurshy

but who's the idiotic and/or unethical lawyer that didn't tell them not to bother because of the clause, that it would be a waste of time... HE is now 283,000 richer??

10:01 pm

phandmd

how about the GA 6/24?

10:02 pm

herinfernallady

My g.f got $25 000 for a very brutal attack and was told from the government that the compensation would have to be spent before she could get any financal help. And that sounds disgusting about Walmart

10:02 pm

pam

I know, I think walmart bites. money won in a suit like this should be for future living costs... she had medical insurance and that's what should cover medical bills...

10:02 pm

Jacula

phan - add emergency dept Clooney worked in to the type of walk (ga4/6) before it.

10:02 pm

rururocks

a horse is the ga 6

10:03 pm

rururocks

what a horse does phan

10:03 pm

phandmd

ugh! Thnx for the clue

10:03 pm

Jacula

It's a covering for a leg but it was easier to clue it that way below.

10:03 pm

rururocks

last ge clue please

10:03 pm

hurshy

i'm not sure HER lawyer isn't more despicable, when you think about it.

10:04 pm

jesdraggon

bo5,16 the first, please?

10:04 pm

Jacula

ruru - ge5/16 = ge + Egyptian Sun God +, depending on how you spell it, a consonant.

10:04 pm

herinfernallady

Ok ill be back after flip. Hurshy please visit more often

10:05 pm

Jacula

1st bo5/16 = bo + first 3 letters of what your neck supports.

10:08 pm

10:09 pm

10:09 pm

ardilla

10:09 pm

pam

hi, stid

10:10 pm

hurshy

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

stidmama

10:11 pm

Jacula

Well, here in the office/study, I'm sitting right below my drunken, newly turned 21 daughter's room and I've heard no more crashes or bangs or any other worrying sounds. Yes, I know I said I'd left her sober b/f in charge but I'm a mother, so I lied! I guess I'll see her sometime later this afternoon.

10:11 pm

Jacula

Or maybe this evening.

10:11 pm

stidmama

hello jacula!

10:12 pm

stidmama

10:12 pm

10:12 pm

Jacula

Hi stid. Got your e-mail. Once a day on both our time scales is fine for me. Talk more when the holiday's over.

10:13 pm

stidmama

10:13 pm

Jacula

Easter holiday, stid.

10:14 pm

rururocks

hoi 6/27?

10:14 pm

stidmama

but it's over, isn't it? I thought people celebrated it last weekend... *sigh* better holler at me when YOU are done with it! LOL

10:14 pm

Jacula

Stid - last tr7 is a path well walked or tr7.

10:14 pm

stidmama

ho 6/27 ho + double letter + the sound of the letter after M

10:15 pm

stidmama

thanks Jacula! *eating fish*

10:15 pm

Jacula

ho6/27 rhymes with the clue Stid just asked for which I gave her a path clue to.

10:15 pm

hurshy

easter lasts longer in europe... and really, easter season lasts a looooooooooooong time

10:16 pm

stidmama

SO glad I didn't ask for the fishy th 6/27!

10:16 pm

Jacula

stid - that's no punishment if it's nicely cooked. Slap in the face with a raw or frozen one not so nice, though. LOL

10:16 pm

hurshy

or is there another one... bother... i haven't had high church tendencies long enough

10:16 pm

hurshy

oh, there has to be, pentecost is yet to come

10:16 pm

jesdraggon

he6,27?

10:16 pm

hurshy

is that the last one until advent?

10:17 pm

stidmama

he 6/27: past tense the thing that holds your ears off your neck...

10:17 pm

Jacula

Yes, hursh.

10:18 pm

hurshy

thank you, o British one

10:18 pm

stidmama

SE 6 please?

10:18 pm

Jacula

he6 = he +5th consonant + Mr Onassiss.

10:18 pm

Jacula

LOL, Hursh.

10:20 pm

Jacula

Almost an African country that se6, stid. Otherwise, try se4.4 + a girl described in 3 letters.

10:20 pm

Jacula

Minus her last lette (l).

10:20 pm

Jacula

*letter

10:21 pm

stidmama

thanks Jacula *thinking*

10:21 pm

pam

so easter season encompasses what, jac?

10:22 pm

stidmama

what letter do I leave out Jacula?

10:22 pm

Jacula

Thank goodness I don't have to be up at any particular time later, household upstairs is very noisy right now. Drunken daughter quiet now but son down here looking for bed covers for his temporary bed, since his g/f has his clean bed.

10:23 pm

jesdraggon

sorry jac, i couldn't parse the he6,27 clue

Bed covers for that are in cupboards above mu bed and I'm not going to wake Other Half up tramping about on our bed getting son's bedding out. Other Half was already awoken by drunken daughter falling over in her room earlier, when he thought ceiling was falling down, He's had a bad day! He mended the broken boot (trunk) lock on his car, cleaned all the interior, took it down to the local garage for an MOT, walked home, got call to say it had passed MOT, walked back to get it and then went onto motorway to pick up his daughter to take her to stay at his sisters' with her cousins... got shunted in back by young girl on her way back to Uni. Her car a write off, his doesn't look so bad, but tests will tell. Both people uninjured, so far as we can tell so far, which is the most important thing.
