1:54 am

westford

I have a sad story. My cousin's golden retriever died this morning. Sassy was 14 and not well for awhile. That's sad in itself but my cousin who can't have children has had breast cancer since 1999. She was almost at the 5 year mark when she got it again and now it's gone to her bones. Sassy has been such a comfort to her. I'm so sad for her but her outlook has been so positive that I'm sure she's going to get through this too,

1:54 am

Just1Mar

I was just teasing molly, I'm sorry...although my best friend who is Danish lives in Vancouver!

1:54 am

mari

Scotlands not so bad - England is great but BC Canada takes some beating :)

1:55 am

Molly72

Yes - and I teach kids English - and enjoy to improve my skills

1:55 am

Just1Mar

Oh westie I'm sooo sorry :(

1:56 am

Molly72

1:56 am

Just1Mar

1:56 am

lynxxx

oh West, how awful for yr cousin on both counts. I look forward to hearing about her new puppy when she gets through the latest setback. Positive attitude will overcome!

1:57 am

jillibus

molly -- you enjoy improving your skills, not "to improve"

1:57 am

westford

I just don't think she can handle a new puppy at this time but she's such a fighter she'll probably get one tomorrow

1:57 am

Douglas

1:57 am

Just1Mar

redturtlehead

Back from cleaning microwave. Ardilla, once you get used to the crutches it will be hard to start walking again...

3:14 am

herinfernallady

They are good for poking people though

3:14 am

ardilla

ouch herin what did you do?

3:14 am

redturtlehead

WHen I broke my leg, after I got the cast off it was really frightening to try to walk again. Clearly I got over it though.... ;)

3:14 am

redturtlehead

And you will have killer biceps.

3:14 am

loredana

redturtlehead

TY Lynxx, I didnt have that one! But no standing in corner, you are coming to mop my darned floor.

3:23 am

herinfernallady

Giggles i just pulled a mum on the b.f. Told him that he needs to pack and prove to me that im not going to watch him.

3:23 am

redturtlehead

My hint for all movers who want security dep back.

3:23 am

redturtlehead

If the place is decently clean, AND has a very heavy disinfectant or leach smell to it, you almost alwyas get all your money back.

3:23 am

loredana

herin lol!!!

3:23 am

herinfernallady

Yep Red that is true.

3:24 am

redturtlehead

Now, only 4 floors the cink and shower and toilet remain and one counter top.

3:24 am

herinfernallady

I didn't watch him and he fell asleep. I fell asleep to waiting for him (we are both hopeless)

3:24 am

BabbleRabble

I just tell them if they don't like how I keep my place, don't look

3:24 am

redturtlehead

So I am going for the bleachy odor here, the dog dislikes it.

3:24 am

herinfernallady

True babble

3:25 am

redturtlehead

I'd Love to do that!!!

3:25 am

herinfernallady

Ok good good. Technical glitch was actually reported about mobile clocks going backwards one hour a week early

3:25 am

BabbleRabble

lease provides normal wear and tear excepted

3:26 am

redturtlehead

Yes Babble, but I like to leave a place clean. I'm a goood temporary liver.

3:29 am

BabbleRabble

3:29 am

redturtlehead

3:29 am

redturtlehead

3:30 am

lynxxx

3:30 am

herinfernallady

redturtlehead

3:30 am

BabbleRabble

BabbleRabble

3:36 am

redturtlehead

Holy cow, batman, that is a big puzzle

4:04 am

kje

first word - ardilla's baby goose : ) thanks

4:06 am

westford

hi kje

4:06 am

westford

I have a question if you have time

4:06 am

kje

for me?

4:06 am

westford

yes

4:07 am

kje

I'm awake at 4am, I have nothing but time : )

4:07 am

westford

about safari I really like it but can't change icons for that i go to Netscape wondered if you have the same problem

4:09 am

kje

no, i have never tried to do it straight off the web though - I usually search for what I want, save to desktop, then upload, but I'll try the other and see if it works if you like

4:09 am

westford

no hurry try it next time you change your icon I'll try the desk top

4:10 am

westford

that may be the answer

4:10 am

kje

what the heck, I'll go try, now you have me curious

4:13 am

kje

that worked OK also, not sure why yours isn't working, but try saving to desk top and if that way works

4:14 am

westford

I will. thanks for trying

4:14 am

kje

no prob - let me know what you learn

4:15 am

westford

I'll do it for tomorrow's change

4:16 am

redturtlehead

Hi Westford. I simply can not sleep.

4:16 am

redturtlehead

Hi Kje...

4:17 am

kje

have you be up all night, red?

4:17 am

redturtlehead

I went to sleep at nine, woke up at 1, have cleaned microwave and mopped part of a floor...

4:17 am

redturtlehead

and am over half way with the grid.

4:18 am

redturtlehead

proably cause I napped this afternoon, which was so nice.

4:18 am

kje

oooh, been there - unless you're really tired, just forget about it

4:18 am

westford

hi red you're too excited to sleep

4:18 am

kje

toils really isn't in there - I keep thinking it is!

4:19 am

redturtlehead

Yes thats me, excited....if I can get the cleaning done, yes!

4:19 am

ardilla

hi kje

4:19 am

redturtlehead

kje change the l to a different consonant...

4:19 am

kje

hi ardilla

4:20 am

kje

so here is a question, hopefully not too personal, but would you date a recovering alcoholic (7 years) if you found out about it early in the relationship?

4:21 am

kje

just found out and I'm not sure.... don't mean to be callous, but I enjoy a drink

4:21 am

westford

he shouldn't object to you having a drink

4:23 am

kje

hasn't come to that yet, but I wouldn't purposefully tempt someone, I admire that he knew he had a problem and quit - wouldn't want to screw that up

4:24 am

westford

did he tell you?

4:24 am

kje

yes

4:25 am

westford

7 years is a long time and he's never gone back that you know of?

4:25 am

kje

nope

4:25 am

westford

you have to admire someone like that

4:26 am

redturtlehead

I would, but then again I dont really drink, so....

4:26 am

kje

I think he'll make it, but I am a wine and foodie, and essentially it would mean not enjoying that with him -

4:26 am

kje

I feel shallow

4:26 am

westford

why not ask him if he would mind?

4:27 am

westford

you shouldn't

4:27 am

kje

hmmm - thanks for your thoughts - will need to do some thinking

4:27 am

redturtlehead

that could be an issue, I suppose, but many people are foodies without wine.

4:28 am

westford

but they do go so well together

4:28 am

redturtlehead

its always a shocker to learn stuff like that.

4:28 am

westford

is he good looking? lol

4:28 am

redturtlehead

Do they West? I guess I am not inclined to think so. Like food, do not like wine.

4:29 am

redturtlehead

good looking is important!!!

4:29 am

westford

didn't care for wine for a long time but we have a glass with dinner every night and it's very relaxing

4:29 am

kje

yes, I do admire that he quit and have a friend who is in AA and is alos doing well, but her husband gave up alcohol for her once she started so that there would be no problems

4:29 am

redturtlehead

Perhaps this is why I am still wide awake at 3:30 in the am....

4:30 am

kje

granted, they were already married

4:30 am

redturtlehead

kje perhaps you should send him to me, as I already do not drink...

4:30 am

redturtlehead

;)

4:30 am

kje

nah red, you'd still be awake once it wore off : )

4:30 am

westford

yes the situation is different going out for dinner and having a glass of wine shouldn't make him fall off the wagon

4:31 am

kje

he's nice, 44, maybe I should get him to join babble - LOL

4:31 am

westford

case in point I didn't have wine and it's 5:30 a.m.

4:31 am

redturtlehead

kje if I drank a glass of wine these days I would be comatose..

4:31 am

westford

is he a wordy person?

4:32 am

I never realised that if you spent $10 a day at work for 48 weeks of the year you spend $2400 i nearly fell off the chair in fright. For $2400 i could have a week in Thailand (minus flights)

5:35 am

herinfernallady

No i didn't KJE and my net is being stupid

5:36 am

kje

wow - it is like those calculations for how much money you can save by making your coffee at home instead of stopping by starbucks - about $1000/yr

5:36 am

herinfernallady

I don't buy coffee out. This weekend has been the first time in 6 months i have eaten out all weekend.

5:37 am

herinfernallady

You can buy a plunger for work or coffee bags and use those. I used to bring breaky, lunch and snacks when i was working as i couldn't eat breaky at 630am when i had 8am starts

5:37 am

kje

I enjoy meals out, but I'd rather spend the money on a nice meal with nice wine that mindlessly drop it at a drive thru or coffee place

5:38 am

herinfernallady

Second that.

5:38 am

kje

breaky - hah!

5:38 am

herinfernallady

Coffee here at Gloria Jeans is about $5 for me as i have soy and a flavouring.

7:36 am

Scrabbler

It sounds like an adorable place, Atalante. I want to go there.

7:36 am

Scrabbler

Frances, TY for asking. Callie is back to herself, or even better, as the arthritis med has helped her to be more active and perky.

7:37 am

Atalante

its lovely, its a working farm. they have cats and dogs and chickena dn geese and sheep and goats and you name it, they have it, and you can wander round and pet them. except the evil pig creature. you wouldn't want to pet that it bites

7:37 am

Frances

AnnieOakley

I went to a wonderful working farm in Burlington, Vermont called Shelburne Farm. And there is even an elementary school in it and a cheese factory. There were acres and acres of meadows and trails and ponds and hills.

Scrabbler

I read my Yankee magazine every month and yearn to tour New England. Someday.

7:43 am

hurshy

i've always lived here and hopefully always will, i love new england.

7:43 am

Scrabbler

Hi ladycece

7:43 am

Eva

I think they should be innoculating all Vermonters with antidepressants during march-especially this march! Whereabouts in Vermont Jayde?

7:43 am

Jayde287

Poultney - and you?

7:44 am

Eva

where did you grow up ladyc?

7:44 am

Jayde287

And I agree with you about the innoculations

7:44 am

Brattleboro

7:44 am

Eva

a very small town near Montpelier

7:44 am

Atalante

refresh for a pic of the monster pig

7:44 am

Scrabbler

Take extra vitamin D, Eva, and use a lightbox. We have the same problem here. We got more snow on Thursday night and the ski resort across the valley is still thriving.

7:44 am

Dorens

quite lovely ata

7:44 am

Jayde287

It's such a small world! My partner is from Brattlebore

7:45 am

7:45 am

ladycece920

that it is!

7:45 am

Eva

I do also love New England hursh-but March always makes me want to bite people. Yes Scrabbler, I've been popping a lot of vitamin D3. Just realized I really need to start my vegetable seedlings, but it just doesn't seem like that time.

7:46 am

Scrabbler

That IS a monster pig, Atalante!

7:46 am

AnnieOakley

I'm off to grab some food...back later...byeee

7:46 am

Atalante

i cannot tell you how massive this pig is!! its just *huge*

7:46 am

Scrabbler

Bye Annie

7:46 am

hurshy

i have had depression issues but not seasonal ones

7:46 am

Dorens

interesting clue hurshy, i'll be working on that for the next ten minutes

7:46 am

AnnieOakley

oh, ust seen monster pig...no stroking there Ata...

7:46 am

Scrabbler

I am looking for a Hebrew word, Hurshy.

7:47 am

Scrabbler

Yep, I have the perennial one too, hurshy.

7:47 am

Dorens

i thought yiddish

7:47 am

hurshy

it isn't a hebrew word

7:47 am

AnnieOakley

bye Scrabbler...and all...not speaking to giant pig tho!!!

7:47 am

Atalante

it has tusks. and bites

7:47 am

Eva

This is the first winter where I've experience SAD hursh. I don't know if it's age or this winter

7:48 am

Scrabbler

Eva, I have not used my lightbox at all this winter but I did increase my vit D3 to over 2000 IU/day.

7:50 am

Jayde287

This has been a VERY long winter Eva

7:50 am

hurshy

you just have to read literature that fits, like ethan frome

7:51 am

hurshy

well, i mean, um, that probably wouldn't work for everyone

7:52 am

Scrabbler

I never read that, hurshy.

7:52 am

nancethefan

brb

7:52 am

Dorens

no but it is ann amusing iimage... everyone sitting by the fireside, snow outside, reading Ethan (we read it in junio high)

7:53 am

hurshy

ethan frome... and the long winter...

7:54 am

Scrabbler

When I see "gots" in the grid it reminds me of how we used to use that word when we were little kids.

7:55 am

Dorens

it gots to be good

7:55 am

Scrabbler

You gots it!

7:56 am

Dorens

i am stuck here trying to find tevye's word

7:56 am

Scrabbler

Me too, Doren, along with 227 others. I have really slowed down.

7:56 am

hurshy

it's in a so4

7:56 am

hurshy

i thought you said you had it, sc

7:57 am

Dorens

there is an no4 yiddish word, but don't think that's it

7:58 am

Dorens

i have four so 4's// i guess there are more?

7:58 am

Dorens

no i have 5

7:58 am

hurshy

it's in a so4... he si5 it

8:00 am

hurshy

it's not yiddish

8:00 am

hurshy

it's just a regular word

8:00 am

Dorens

i know he si5 a so4 where he says he wishes he had so4 (plural) is that it?

8:00 am

hurshy

no...

8:01 am

hurshy

it's big words

8:01 am

Angelsong

I got all of the s words and didn't even notice.

8:01 am

hurshy

8:02 am

Dorens

oh i see. it's IN a so4.. i thought it was an so4

8:02 am

Scrabbler

hi Angel

8:02 am

Dorens

i still don't have it tho. might give up (hate to give up). and thanks to scrab's help at the end, i did finish yesterday listless.. but won't today

8:03 am

Scrabbler

I opened the list yesterday just to help you with that te7, Doren. You were suffering there at the end.

8:03 am

Angelsong

hi, Scrabbler...how's Miss Callie?

8:04 am

hurshy

tr9 and 10 is what i mean

8:04 am

Scrabbler

Miss Callie is right next to me in this room, on her own little rug.

8:04 am

Dorens

most altruistic, and very much appreciated scrab... much thanks

8:04 am

Dorens

oh!!! Hitting myself on the head!

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Wow, TY, Hurshy!!

8:05 am

hurshy

i'm sorry i did not mean to cause so much confusion

8:05 am

Scrabbler

I am easily confused.

8:05 am

Angelsong

only 35 words to go.

8:05 am

Dorens

go Angel. (only 205 here)

8:06 am

Scrabbler

205 for me too!

8:07 am

Marmar

8:07 am

Angelsong

T's are terminated.

8:08 am

Scrabbler

Hi Marmar

8:08 am

Dorens

hi marmar

8:09 am

Marmar

Hi everyone. The kids are voting on which movie to watch so maybe I have a few minutes on the grid now...time will tell.

8:09 am

nancethefan

hey marmar

8:09 am

Dorens

steal the minutes whenever you can

8:09 am

nancethefan

diot

8:09 am

nancethefan

oops

8:09 am

nancethefan

how about idiot - lol

8:10 am

Marmar

Hi nance. Is that a border collie in your icon picture? I love them so much.

8:11 am

nancethefan

nopers - poodle/terrier mix - i guess she's a pooter - lol

8:12 am

Dorens

nance, change the last letter

8:12 am

Scrabbler

I hear a bunch of crows outside--they are probably enjoying a buffet at the birdfeeders.

8:12 am

Uneaixoise

reading back thru the chat, hursh, tevye's so** is a brilliant clue! :-)

8:12 am

Dorens

i do love birds, and love feeding them, but the crows can be kind of overbearing

8:12 am

nancethefan

hey uneaixoise

8:13 am

nancethefan

hey dorens

8:13 am

Uneaixoise

hey, nance! :-)

8:13 am

Dorens

hi une, yes it was

8:13 am

Scrabbler

hi Une

8:13 am

Marmar

aw, I see the terrier snout now. Cute! We have a mini. schautzer. Also a cutie.

8:13 am

Uneaixoise

hey, dorens :-)

8:13 am

Uneaixoise

hey, scrabs :-)

8:14 am

hurshy

well originally i didn't even think of it as a clue, i was just commenting. i suppose that made it confusing.

8:14 am

Dorens

no, hursh, i hadn't drunk my coffee yet, my bad

8:14 am

Uneaixoise

one of my very favorite musicals!

8:15 am

Dorens

I was at a benefit auction last night for a shelter run by my frined, an "interfaith network" bunch of churches who work together to raise money and volunteer etc. a nice thing

8:16 am

nancethefan

thank you dorens

8:16 am

Scrabbler

That sounds great, Doren.

8:16 am

Uneaixoise

sounds wonderful, dorens

8:16 am

Dorens

but the auctioneer, being funny (which he usually was) made some comment about jews. I didn't really get it, but it was something to the effect of what do jews and crusaders have in common? and the answer wa something about youwouldn't find them here tonight

8:17 am

Marmar

Did you bid on anything Dorens?

8:17 am

Uneaixoise

what?!

8:17 am

Dorens

i was so shocked and offended. do we get offended just because they use the word jews, setting us apart?

8:17 am

Scrabbler

You should have smacked him, Doren.

8:17 am

hurshy

i don't think it's the word jews that did it dorens

8:17 am

Marmar

Totally inappropirate!

8:17 am

hurshy

i think it is classing jews as outsiders, and/or classing them with crusaders

8:17 am

Dorens

i thought about it... but the people there are good people and the cause is good, so I will just be sure that Annie says something to the board of directors and they will speak to hiim

8:18 am

Uneaixoise

good point, hursh

8:18 am

Dorens

This was how I paid for the barge trip in burgundy last summer

8:18 am

hurshy

or possibly he was playing on the old stereotype about jews and money, which would also be terrible

8:18 am

Dorens

yeah. it's the outsiders thing that bugged me. and it still is this morning

8:19 am

Dorens

no, i don't think it was the money thing, really

8:19 am

Atalante

are crusaders outsiders? i don't get it

8:20 am

Dorens

i didn't really either ata.... it sort of made no sense

8:20 am

hurshy

modern christians would certainly hope to separate themselves from crusaders, so, in that sense they are

8:21 am

Marmar

Maybe just trying too hard to say something funny and went too far...

8:21 am

Atalante

i'm sure he could have found something clearer thab crusaders that christians dont associate themselves with!

8:21 am

Dorens

an ignorant 8th grade kid made a stupid comment just on monday, calling someone who wasn't jewish a dirty little jew, they are in the middle of reading night by elie weisel. i ihad to speak to him. and this the next day..... boggles my mind

8:22 am

Dorens

i mean friday, not monday... like the day before

8:22 am

Scrabbler

Ignorance and intolerance.

8:22 am

Scrabbler

The top corner E, help please?

8:23 am

hurshy

it is always very odd to me ... Jesus was a Jew... the whole roots of everything are in Israel... so what's the deal?

8:23 am

Dorens

what el** do you need scrab?

8:23 am

hurshy

it's not etiose or etoile, sc... that's all i can tell you so far

8:23 am

Dorens

i have really never understood it, except for the bullies need to put someone else down to make themselves seem better

8:23 am

Scrabbler

Top left, Doren.

8:24 am

Scrabbler

And ethos = phantom

8:24 am

Atalante

et + hello + not off

8:24 am

Dorens

oh, of course. i have no idea.

8:24 am

Uneaixoise

8:24 am

Scrabbler

TY, Atalante.

8:25 am

Scrabbler

My left H is grey too.

8:26 am

Scrabbler

Phantom = atheist

8:27 am

Jindigo

Dorens - just finished reading your comments. What he said was unacceptable.

8:27 am

Scrabbler

Hi jindigo

8:27 am

Dorens

i know. but so very inappropriate, that the folks I asked about it just didn't get it and weren't sure what he said or what he was trying tosay

8:27 am

Jindigo

Hey Scrab and everyone else - jumping on for little bit before tackling laundry (and the rest of the days chores).

8:28 am

Scrabbler

I finished laundry last night, but I have to put clothes away today. And I MUST get my tax packet done for my CPA. I always delay this chore as it is so painful.

8:29 am

Jindigo

All the more reason to make sure he is spoken to - maybe it was inocent enough but he fumbled and should be made aware. I would be upset.

8:30 am

Dorens

yeah, thanks jindidgo. for a moment, i was planning on going right up to him and asking him what he was trying to say, but the wimp in me (or my manners) took over

8:30 am

Atalante

doesn't sound like even he knew what he was trying to say!

8:30 am

Jindigo

I know where you are comming from - it is hard to confront. But stick to your guns Dorens!

8:31 am

Dorens

am down to 157... need 30 more before i can leave... oh no, i will be sure that my friend notifies the board and expresses her displeasure

8:31 am

Scrabbler

With 164 to go I need to take a break for breakfast and the newspaper. Bye all.

8:31 am

Jindigo

don't over react - because it could be nothing - but better to clear the air then walk around hurt or upset.

8:32 am

Uneaixoise

later, scrabs :-)

8:32 am

Dorens

bye scrabs see you later

8:32 am

Jindigo

good luck - let us know how it turns out.

8:32 am

Jindigo

bye Scrab

8:32 am

an ar6/18 (or ar7/28) will often use a ch6/24 or more than one, for the 7) to form a ch4 on a statue; if the statue is of a large person, it may have two ch5/14...and the ar6 may need a ch5/14 or ch6/24 to lift it into place. The ar6 may also recline on a ch6/24 to contemplate his work.

Angelsong

for some ar6's, tr9 is everything; they may be bound by tr10 from eo4 past. If the ar6 is an eg7, he or she could be "stuck up", or el4 may be responding in a tr9 -al manner.

9:01 am

bethn

they probably wont, but if you take enough pictures, and talk about it often, they will think they do! what a great day you will have

9:01 am

Angelsong

very possibly, gramma!

hello everyone, love your clues Angel

9:04 am

Angelsong

many may ha4 the ar6 when his or her work ha5/16 in a gallery...but said ar6 could not be called a ha6/27! (That is reserved for his jet-age form of transportation.)

Do you think the ar6 could do something w/the last 3 ag's? I'm not getting them.

9:07 am

Aloyisius

9:07 am

Angelsong

if gretel has a brother (ha6/21) who has brothers with the same name, they are all ha7/32...they may hi4/9 hi4/8 into the mountains one day...unless one of them hi4/5 the others and they refuse to go along...

if the ma4/7 had seen ma8/55, would they have stopped to smell them? Do children do ma4/6 on ma/5 at school?

9:14 am

Angelsong

when I make a na5/14 for a snack, I usually put it on a di4...otherwise, it is too messy. I could then be said to be di7 it up...

9:15 am

MA8? I'm sniffing around for it but to no avail.

9:18 am

Angelsong

I would not necessarily enjoy a ra6/24 with my na5. the flavors would not complement each other...but if I had little food and needed to ra6/18, I might well consume those ra7/28 together.

9:19 am

Angelsong

more like a Babblical moment, gramma...:)

Oh, who wants to be level anyway?

9:24 am

Angelsong

does Ravi si4/6 when he plays his si5/10, and would that make a young girl si4/7? If he si5/14, does he do so with si5/14 for those who are deaf?

9:33 am

Scrabbler

I will, TY, Natasha.

9:34 am

Angelsong

Scrabbler, it sounds like you could use a website to showcase your work....or can you link up with a local store or gallery on consignment?

9:34 am

bethn

you could try ebay, pick up only , specify OOAK (one of a kind)

9:34 am

pabtrek

9:35 am

I do macrame, but never anything that large.

Scrabbler

But, Beth, start with a lo4 dowel, ha4 that up and work down from there.

9:40 am

bethn

i would just need to know the type of knot that would produce large , regular , rectngular openings.. i could adjust size (i think)

9:40 am

lil*monkey

bethn, could you find an inexpensive woven hammock and ha4 that up ???

9:41 am

hurshy

the newspeople i mean.

10:18 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Hurshy! Lo4 of random, casual sex!

10:18 am

bethn

i was in a surgi-center seeral months ago. pre-op patients only separated by curtains. young girl (16-17ish) with mom on other side of curtain they were discussing her genital herpes i was so sad for her & angry & frustrated

10:19 am

Atalante

what age are officially allowed sex over tehre?

10:19 am

Atalante

hi katie!

10:19 am

Scrabbler

And HPV and the other STDs

10:19 am

ardilla

hi katie

10:19 am

Scrabbler

"Allowed"? Whenever they choose to try it--11-12 or even younger for some girls.

10:20 am

hurshy

you can have sex at any age, if you're both young. two 14 year olds can have sex, but a 16 and an 18 is illegal.

10:20 am

Kazozz

I was at Starbucks last week, listening to a group of 8th graders ( 13-14yr) girls talking about oral sex!! I wanted to say somthing, but I took a deep breath and sipped my coffee lol

10:20 am

Atalante

isnt it illegal at any age?

10:20 am

ardilla

just got the ca5 boat with paddle

10:20 am

hurshy

it's only illegal if you are over 18 and have sex with someone under 18. although actually i'm not sure, an 18 and a 17 might be allowed.

10:21 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Kazozz, that type, and the other end, are popular because it isn't considered sex and is "safe".

10:21 am

bethn

it is illegal if one partner is an adult & one is minor

10:21 am

KatieMcG

so have i now ardilla ;-)

10:21 am

KatieMcG

whoo so a 17 year old could have sex with a 12 year old and it not be illegal?

10:22 am

bethn

i think it varies from state to state

10:22 am

Kazozz

my son is 13...its a worrying trend!! But so far he's only just at the stage where he admits to liking girls lol

10:22 am

Atalante

its offically 16 here, isnt it katie?

10:22 am

Scrabbler

If it is consensual, Katie.

10:23 am

Atalante

thats - wow

10:23 am

Scrabbler

Prepare him, Kazozz, some girls are aggressive and give propositions--happened to my oldest nephew at 14. He was given a choice of 2 services.

10:23 am

hurshy

but is there an age under which you are not deemed able to give consent to a 17 year old, i hope?

10:24 am

Kazozz

eeek thx scrabs

10:24 am

Scrabbler

I am not sure, Hurshy, about the legalities there.

10:24 am

KatieMcG

Here it is illegal under the age of 16 regardless of consent or the age of participants

10:24 am

Atalante

go us :)

10:25 am

hurshy

really there should be some kind of a difference in age clause worked in for minors, so that 17 and 12 would be illegal even with consent

10:25 am

Kazozz

whew finally got the ag's all ticked off

10:25 am

KatieMcG

it is also illegal between the ages of 16 to 18 if you are in a position of influence/power over the individual i.e. a teacher/carer/social worker

10:25 am

Scrabbler

Teens in my office have no hesitation to share their experiences with me--sexual, drugs, alcohol. They are bragging really, about what they dare to do.

10:26 am

lil*monkey

clues for the two E words from upper left corner please ?

10:26 am

Kazozz

hi lil! I need those too :(

10:26 am

ardilla

hi kaz

10:26 am

Scrabbler

et + cons + charged particle

10:27 am

Scrabbler

Then pl for et7

10:27 am

ardilla

etion

10:27 am

Scrabbler

Almost, Ardilla. Place an eta after the T.

10:28 am

hurshy

an eta isn't that... that's an aspirant

10:28 am

lil*monkey

TY scrabs

10:29 am

Scrabbler

Isn't eta and H in Greek? So not really a consonant?

10:29 am

ardilla

ty scrabs

10:29 am

Atalante

eta is an e in greek

10:29 am

hurshy

no, there isn't any H in greek, you mark aspiration with an apostrophe, and eta is just a regular vowel.

10:29 am

Scrabbler

So what is H in Greek?

10:30 am

Scrabbler

I am so confused, obviously because I know so little Greek.

10:30 am

Atalante

you get aspirated and non-aspirated vowels. for example an eta with a ' would sound aspirated and eta without wouldn't

10:30 am

hurshy

not every language considers H a letter

10:30 am

Kazozz

i think its too early for me to be getting these clues....maybe coffee will help lol

10:31 am

ardilla

missing 2 hs help pls?

10:31 am

ardilla

have 4 ha & 4 hi

10:32 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Ardilla, how appropriate, LOL. I need 2 from the right H.

10:32 am

Scrabbler

ha4=like sleet, and pl

10:32 am

Scrabbler

ha6=Greta's friend

10:33 am

Scrabbler

hi4=not hers + single hump

10:34 am

Haha, Katryn!

12:26 pm

katrynwise

thanks boris

12:26 pm

x-Boris-x

yw :D

12:26 pm

katrynwise

hey scrabbler - how about your best guess?

12:27 pm

AnnieOakley

oh, wow Deeha...brilliant

12:28 pm

Scrabbler

I would rather do the calculation than guess.

12:28 pm

AnnieOakley

how do you do them?

12:28 pm

Dorens

me too scrabbs. i started trying . in my head. then realized i needed a pen.

12:29 pm

Scrabbler

40320

12:29 pm

katrynwise

that's the idea... to see how close people guess based on how the numbers are sequenced

12:29 pm

Atalante

I guess the idea, though, is to see how close people's guesses are.

12:30 pm

Deeha

Havent done any for a while as there is only one pen I can use and I am having trouble getting it. Because they use indian ink they clog up really quickly and I am a bit lazy and dont wash them out quick enough!! Juat seen yours I draw them roughly, wash in some colour then start dotting! Some of them-like the gorilla-take weeks but patience is one thing I have

12:30 pm

Atalante

for example I would guess 39000 based on a quick look at the numbers, even though I know the correct answer

12:30 pm

lil*monkey

st6,27 anyone ?

12:31 pm

katrynwise

thanks...

12:31 pm

Atalante

and then build distrubutions and then test them etc etc

12:31 pm

Dorens

no shame in asking for clues, lilmonkey

12:31 pm

AnnieOakley

tha's amazing..you must have incredible patience, not to mention skill...clever you...

12:31 pm

LadyNatts

fireworks and ernie's rubby ducky... what could be better for a sunday!

12:31 pm

Atalante

I can't believe you are all guessing the right numbers of a quick inspection of the numbers :P

12:32 pm

Scrabbler

Yahoooo for Lady Natts

12:32 pm

rururocks

a disgrace on a family is a st*

12:32 pm

lil*monkey

am I the only one asking for clues?

12:32 pm

Scrabbler

No guess for me, I did the calculation.

12:32 pm

Dorens

monkey, that was a clue, albeit a bad one. no st**** attached to that.

12:33 pm

Atalante

and thats not the point

12:33 pm

LadyNatts

now I must hop in the shower and get ready to go look at some lakeside (recreation) property.

12:33 pm

rururocks

sounds like our austrailian friend with a diferent cons in the misddle

12:33 pm

Dorens

yay lady natts. I am now down to hurshy's dreaded 14. tho probably a different 14. taking a break. see you later

12:33 pm

riemann

Be careful lady, lots of people hurt themselves hopping on a bar of soap.

12:33 pm

LadyNatts

bye everyone - have a terrific day!

12:33 pm

hurshy

i would group them to make it easier... but i would definitely not guess. i can't. i just can't.

12:34 pm

torgone

Django Reinhardt walks into a bar ..

12:34 pm

Atalante

there's a big difference between being able to add up numbers and taking a look and guessing.

12:34 pm

hurshy

oh dorens, we should compare notes. except that you are taking a break.

12:34 pm

Atalante

yes you can hurshy, I did. look at them for 10 seconds and guess

12:34 pm

hurshy

i am terrible at estimating, and anyway i don't like to.

12:35 pm

Atalante

what if marty's life was at stake?

12:35 pm

hurshy

if there is a way to find out the right answer, it would bother me to guess instead.

12:35 pm

AnnieOakley

i must confess...i did know the answer...was one of te

12:35 pm

Scrabbler

That's how I feel, hursh. Why estimate when one can calculate?

12:35 pm

rururocks

ge 5 please I can't get it

12:35 pm

AnnieOakley

one of those where you know the pattern!

12:35 pm

katrynwise

true ata... everyone I have asked has had a hard time "guessing" the answer... everyone wants to calculate it.. either in their head or on paper

12:35 pm

hurshy

why would marty's life be at stake over estimating? and even when is semi-is - eg the vet asks how often he throws up - i'm STILL bad at estimating!

12:36 pm

Atalante

why? its a different thing. A different question. if you were asked to estiate the weight of a bag of sugar, you'd guess at 2lb, 1 lb etc without any issue

12:36 pm

Atalante

LOL katryn, I've had to do the same assignments as you - or at least the same type!

12:36 pm

hurshy

but i'd be way off :)

12:37 pm

riemann

My problem: I teach probability and statistics, so I already know the value of 8! without further effort.

12:37 pm

Atalante

so are most people! thats half the point!

12:37 pm

Scrabbler

I don't have a ge5 yet

12:37 pm

hurshy

i'm seriously like, the worst estimator ever. maybe that is why i'm good at math. i had to become good at it to compensate for being unable to estimate.

12:37 pm

Haz1558

ge plus the robot ending for ge5.

12:37 pm

Scrabbler

hi torgone and riemann

12:37 pm

Atalante

I defy anyone to *guess* at 40320 or whatever it is from looking at those numbers

12:37 pm

rururocks

thanks a lot haz

12:37 pm

redturtlehead

Yay! Land Lady seems to have gone. Most of my stuff is in the car... this is starting to feel good.

12:37 pm

Atalante

so? you're the worst estimator. That means you can estimate

12:37 pm

Atalante

and have estimated in the past

12:37 pm

Scrabbler

TY and hello Hazel

Scrabbler

I wanted canoli to work but the correct spelling has 2 Ns.

12:39 pm

hurshy

12:39 pm

hurshy

saying "i can't estimate" was an expression, much like "i can't play basketball" really means "i can't play basketball WELL"

12:39 pm

katrynwise

Ok... I'm gonna run eat something but should return soon....

BabbleRabble

I think the penalty box is too harsh; show be the reality orientation box
