When in your motion you are hot and dry--
As make your bouts more violent to that end--
And that he calls for drink, I'll have prepared him
A chalice for the nonce, whereon but sipping,
If he by chance escape your venom'd stuck,
Our purpose may hold there.

4:24 am

lynxxx

Hi Pink, quiet tonite apparently

4:26 am

pinkhatlil

hi lynxxx, its painfully quiet in here today. Still no lickety, have you heard anything?

4:27 am

loredana

hello Pink hugs

4:27 am

pinkhatlil

hello loredana

4:27 am

pinkhatlil

*big squeezy hugs* :)

4:27 am

lynxxx

No I haven't Pink but reall haven't been on long for the last few days so may have missed any update

4:28 am

lynxxx

Hi Lore!

4:28 am

loredana

pink i know nothing....... hello lynxxx and stewart

4:29 am

pinkhatlil

i just hope all is well with mr p and lickety!

4:30 am

lynxxx

Yes! esp MRP and her arm!

4:30 am

loredana

i havent seen herin either have either of you seen or heard from her?

4:31 am

lynxxx

Me neither, it might just be that she doesn't have a connection at her new house perhaps

4:32 am

pinkhatlil

yesterday someone was saying that we wouldn't have clue for 3 months. That made me think something serious has happened....apparently there has been a power cut and is having to use an internet cafe according to her facebook page

4:32 am

loredana

could be rose was going to email her so have to wait and see

4:35 am

lynxxx

The last part was about Infernal....we had severe wind storms last week and some areas were actually without power for 5-6 days - maybe Infernal was caught up in that! Needless to say the power companies are about to undergo a review by the State Government

4:37 am

pinkhatlil

that is probably it then lynxxx, that must have been a really bad storm. Was you caught up in it lynxxx?

4:37 am

loredana

hope they are looking into paying their meter readers a little better at the same time

4:38 am

lynxxx

lol - still liking it Loredana?

4:39 am

loredana

got through summer just yep but the pay is disgusting lynxxx only making enough to get by nothing over

4:40 am

loredana

going off to look at bj clues need 1 x c and 1 x d to finish

4:41 am

lynxxx

Pink It was just very high winds and some areas hit harder than others - 4 people killed by falling walls trees etc. The main problem with the supply is that they privatised the power system here a few years ago, and it seems all the individual smaller companies do not have the emergency crew numbers to fix things up within a day or 2

4:44 am

loredana

we have a lot of pole fires over here due to no maintenance being done and several people have been killed by this the whole utility system needs a thorough investigation as the same people are fillinf their pockets

4:44 am

pinkhatlil

how awful, im glad your safe! When these want to become private they dont think of what is best for consumers in terms of service and emergency measures, its all about lining their own pockets they make me sick!

4:45 am

lynxxx

I don't know why they have gone down this privatisation path. Phones & power were so much better when they were with the government

4:47 am

pinkhatlil

things normally are lynxxx, as much as i dont like the government. its greed, they promise things and never deliver

4:53 am

loredana

finally finished that took some doing

4:54 am

loredana

7:21 am

shorty

huh swmbo?

7:21 am

Angelsong

yes. I found Maria Gracia's "My Oh-So-Organized Filing System" online. it has 510 color-coded, prenamed category labels, 150 blank labels for customizing, a filing guide and a tickler file system.

7:21 am

Anniebrook

morning, swmbo

7:22 am

kje

whoa angel - that sounds like work!

7:23 am

Atalante

thats far too organised

7:23 am

Mom

good morning Swmbo and crpw

7:23 am

Angelsong

it's going to be so worth it, though. I'm going to completely empty the filing cabinet and start from scratch.

7:24 am

Mom

you sound so excited, Angel. I hope it all goes well for you.

7:24 am

kje

that sounds like something I would do.... and then the files would still be all over the place a month later

7:24 am

kje

it's the getting them back in there part that will be work

7:25 am

Angelsong

it's going to be a team work project. my husband is going to help me.

7:25 am

7:26 am

Angelsong

it's another step in my resolution to become --and stay-- organized. I've gotten rid of a LOT of stress just by getting things like this done.

7:26 am

Mom

thanks Annie, it is always a good time.

7:27 am

kje

I know it's the best way angel - just teasing you - wish I could stay organized

7:28 am

Angelsong

kje, if you are interested, I have tons of resources. It just takes small, consistent efforts.

7:28 am

LadyNatts

kje, in honor of april-poetry month, can you find something by my husband's great grandfather? Bharathi...

Christini

7:33 am

Atalante

7:33 am

Christini

7:40 am

montreal13

"Have tea, will babble" - hi all !

7:40 am

Angelsong

our home came with all appliances included....but to save money on electricity this summer, I'm going to use a clothes drying rack instead of the dryer. On sunny days, we can put it in the back yard; on wet days, it will go into the garage.

7:40 am

Anniebrook

LadyNatts

he is dark - and very misogynistic! but does have a certain way with words

9:18 am

pablo blanco

i've read a lot of it, some of it is great, some of it not so great

9:19 am

kje

a face like that tells stories - with all the plastic surgery now days, will we lose those faces?

9:20 am

Dorens

not everyone wants plastic surgery, even among those who can afford it kje, so these faces will continue... just maybe fewer of them

9:20 am

12:57 pm

pugmama763

I have v7--sh7--mo7---what am I missing please?

12:57 pm

hurshy

i know. it's not your fault. it's just, those of us who have been around awhile sometimes feel a sort of silent fury over the fact that most people seem to have abandoned BJ for lickety, as we feel loyal to our original listmaker. we would wish that both lists had equal levels of awareness of their existence, attention, gratitude, etc., whilst not wanting to dictate to any individual babbler how they might want to play.

12:57 pm

JBV

oe 7 - different spelling of ed 5

12:57 pm

JBV

pugmama, can you clue the v7?

2:30 pm

lynxxx

hooray for Walter!

2:30 pm

montreal13

your kid demonstrates some spirits already !!
