I finally got my monkeys!! Loved the video jilli . Not a bad way to spend the day.

1:44 am

jillibus

west, APES please -- monkeys were yesterday and they're not the same! That was the point

1:45 am

westford

oh I see. well since I just got rid of my Egyptian sign it's better than nothing

1:45 am

jillibus

sorry, west -- can't read the words -- can you translate please?

1:45 am

westford

oh no was afraid of that

1:48 am

westford

they are saying 'we have a fourth brother, ADMIT NO EVIL, but he left the group for a political career."

1:49 am

jillibus

oh, very good, west!

1:49 am

westford

thanks jilli..I wish I knew how to make things bigger

1:50 am

jillibus

I don't know how to do it here

1:53 am

westford

had to refresh lost my chat and list

1:53 am

Kazzer99

Morning all - just a brief one been puzzling over the co 8

1:53 am

westford

spin with a friend kaz

1:54 am

jillibus

just for the record, my object in this icon exercise was to get people to google the various breeds of monkeys such as the proboscis, capuchin, howler, owl and spider monkeys, macaques -- so many wonderful creatures and I listed some in my bio -- but nobody did anything. Today there's a variety of apes to find -- next tiem there are other primates like lemurs, but I guess people don't care.

1:54 am

Kazzer99

great west - i will move on to the fs next. I am doing it a different way today - decided to do it be random letters - a bit frustating but fun

1:55 am

jillibus

So I'll stop boring people

1:56 am

westford

well I care jilli I was just going for some comic relief

1:57 am

westford

and you are anything but boring I have learned so much from your input and ideas

1:57 am

jillibus

and I'm glad you sis, west -- don't get me wrong!

1:57 am

jillibus

I'm glad you did too (sooo tired, can't type -- certainly can't see words!)

1:58 am

diem

Evening all

1:58 am

westford

I'd be interested to see what monkeygames and lilmonkey come up with

1:58 am

jillibus

hi diem

1:58 am

westford

hi diem

1:59 am

jillibus

west -- remember, monkey was YESTERDAY's theme -- and I think they ignored it

2:01 am

westford

I think they did monkeygames was thinking about Walter and his swimming lesson. Wonder how he made out.

2:01 am

jillibus

most people ignorer the themes

2:02 am

westford

how are they chosen?

2:04 am

MayneGuy

hi jilli. just started looking at the chat. have you seen the latest edition of national geographics? there's an article on bioko island of the west coast of africa. shows several species of monkeys that I had never heard of.

2:06 am

jillibus

they're chosen by any of us -- just email Babbler with your ideas. If you use Expert, go up to Resources and Icon Themes -- her bio is there. If you don't have Expert, Icon Themes are on Lickety's page.
a

2:06 am

jillibus

lso, Babbler is sometimes online and if you go to Who's Online and she's there, put her in your My Friends and you can go there any time.

2:08 am

westford

ok thanks for the info I don't have any theme in mind right now but it would be fun to be selected

2:08 am

jillibus

Hi MayneGuy -- Sorry, haven't seen the latest Nat Geo, but TV has shown many breeds of monkeys, and Google does too. Ditto with Apes, which si todays's theme. As I understand it, monkys have tails and apes don't, among other differences.

2:09 am

westford

I don't think I've ever been here when Babbler is on

2:10 am

jillibus

west, Babbler would be happy to receive any ideas -- she doesn't select, just posts the ones sent in -- and she's getting discouraged because so few pay any attention now.

2:11 am

jillibus

west, she doesn't chat.

elder

Crumbs .. good grief Flosy..

4:47 am

flosey

he'd been thru so many of them, I think his veins went into hiding, lol

4:48 am

mrpresident

I have been given a hard time each and every time! the techs are constantly looking for errors (paperwork) or don't want to use the needle I ask for (cause they are too expensive and only reserved for babies)... makes me feel awful.

4:48 am

flosey

but there are some who can get it first stab and you hardly feel a thing

4:48 am

lynxxx

I always warn them that i am needle phobic (which I am) and usually they go out of their way to be good - maybe you could try that

4:48 am

mrpresident

it is true flosey! My veins just don't present, or they collapse

4:49 am

flosey

oh mr p, they have to use smaller needles for some people

4:49 am

elder

I give the on go and thats it .. vein retracts ... not good. they then hit in one go.

4:50 am

mrpresident

yes, I need the butterfly needle, but they had to let me know how 'expensive' they are, and that they only get 10 a fortnight and I am not a baby so I can't have one.

4:50 am

mrpresident

I end up crying and they cave in

4:50 am

elder

*give Them one go*

4:50 am

flosey

don't be ashamed to cry then mrp, whatever it takes

4:50 am

elder

ohh :(

4:51 am

lynxxx

poor MRP - like you need the hassle

4:51 am

flosey

indeed, you'd think they'd remember you

4:51 am

mrpresident

yes, I don't want to be stabbed and them digging around to find blood, only to be bruised and bloodless at the end.
Thanks for the support girls! I know it is a little thing for some, but it is too much for me as it is so often

4:52 am

flosey

our hospital is small, with shall staff, so you get to know them all

4:52 am

loredana

hello Babblers!!! oh dear we have lots of Cs

4:52 am

mrpresident

you are right flosey, but they choose to forget so they can have their drama for the day

4:52 am

elder

Some times its the little things that send us over ...:)

4:52 am

flosey

**small** staff

4:52 am

lynxxx

Hi Loredana

4:52 am

mrpresident

hi lore... look at the F's darling! I hate Cs, Fs and Ms... just my luck today

4:52 am

loredana

hi mrp!! hugs you go girl they gotta quit stabbing our mrp

4:52 am

elder

hello Loredana.

4:52 am

flosey

Jo :pre

4:52 am

loredana

hi Lynxxx and stewart

4:53 am

mrpresident

yes elder... small things can be so icky

4:53 am

loredana

just got back from a funeral so not the best of dispositions Fs yuk

4:53 am

flosey

wow, my fingers just aren

4:54 am

flosey

t awake yet

4:54 am

flosey

so many typos!!

4:54 am

mrpresident

I am considering going to the cancer clinic to get blood taken from the portacath. I do think that might be a better way now.

4:54 am

flosey

whatever works mrp, go for it

4:55 am

mrpresident

oh lore, funerals are gloomy, I hope the wake was good though

4:55 am

loredana

you know mrp i have found we are always having to defend ourselves these days made to feel you are not worthy and everything else you tell them you want that butterfly needle I can sympathise with you i have very narrow veins and anways suffer giving blood

4:56 am

mrpresident

I do tell them, and if they don't do it the way I want, I walk... I have had to learn to be strong, ask for what I want, and be proud of it.

4:56 am

loredana

didnt stay for that mrp just paid my respects to the family and left after service never have understood why people stand around drinking tea and coffee after someone has passed on??? but then I always was a little odd!!!!

4:57 am

flosey

yay mrp, good for you

4:57 am

mrpresident

I had to defend my daughter today, I had a good yell at a woman who is an administrator at a college she goes to. It felt good to defend her too! I am standing up to alot more things of late

4:57 am

loredana

YAY for mrp!!!!!! Hugs for our Babble sister

4:57 am

elder

getting Stronger ...

4:58 am

flosey

wtg, I think I always found it easier to defend my kids than myself

4:58 am

mrpresident

ah, the idea of having a wake is to celebrate the life... I have found I have laughed so hard at wakes, remembering the dead for all the wonderful things they where.

4:59 am

flosey

right mrp, that's the whole purpose of the wake, remembering great times, etc

5:01 am

flosey

and sharing them with family

5:01 am

mrpresident

This college enrolled my daughter, gave us no paperwork, and we blindly let her go weekly to study... she struggled with homework, struggled badly... I had a very upset little girl on my hands last night cause she wasn't coping.
I find out today (after asking time and again what support they offer to help her cope) that there is a help line she can call, a homework study group AND a website she can log into to refresh what she has learned in class!!! They never told us about the support and the poor child has been battling to do it all on her own!
I was soooooo angry

5:01 am

loredana

oh mrp that sounds like a positive way to remember them we did that in the service they had a video right back to when she was born until present it was lovely to see her she was a very beautiful lady

5:01 am

lynxxx

I think they are good for those left behind too. You go through so much before (sometimes months) and immediately after...it is great to be surrounded by family & good friends who care

5:02 am

flosey

I'm going to see if I can get a bit more sleep - now that I've stopped coughing, goodnight again!!

5:03 am

loredana

yes totally agree Lynxxx Joyce was 82 and she passed in her sleep her time to go

5:03 am

lynxxx

nite Flosey

5:03 am

mrpresident

I called the college head office and gave them a piece of my mind!
They apologised profusely and asked us to reconsider letting her attend college again.
I can't believe that poor child struggled with no help, whilst other kids were getting it

5:03 am

loredana

flosey sleep well see you next time

5:03 am

mrpresident

night flosey :))

5:03 am

elder

goodnight Flosey, and calm dreams..

5:03 am

lynxxx

MRP was this her regular school or an extra?

5:03 am

nDanLia

morning all; whats todays count?

5:04 am

loredana

mrp proud of you parents have to keep those teachers on their toes at times

5:04 am

loredana

morning nDan

5:04 am

nDanLia

mrp - glad you're up to fighting strength; its often the squeaky wheel...

5:04 am

lynxxx

204 nDan...hi

5:04 am

loredana

off to the C grid yuk!!

5:04 am

mrpresident

AND, to add insult to injury, the 'administrator' said.... "I doubt it would have helped her anymore having the support".
I wanted to strangle her, and Maddie was very insulted!
Her school has her as top of the class in all subjects, and this 'admin' person makes that comment

5:05 am

mrpresident

hi dan :)

5:05 am

mrpresident

yes lore! there is a school nearby that we want the kids in... the teachers are held accountable for the kids results... I truly believe they should be

5:05 am

loredana

duh???? some people you wonder why they open their mouths mrp

5:06 am

mrpresident

it is extra work for her... it is to help her understand how much she will need to do for a selective school.
Whether she gets in or not, it will help her to achieve results she is used to

5:07 am

loredana

they used to be in the Ã¶ld days"mrp

5:07 am

elder

Hello Dan its 203.

5:07 am

mrpresident

Lore, I am very happy with the teacher at the college, just not the attitude of the person running it

5:07 am

loredana

now you are on her case she might pick her game up

5:07 am

redturtlehead

Hello Mr P!!!! and everyone else. I have seen no one here in a while!!! How is everyone?

5:08 am

mrpresident

teachers these days are 'allowed' to let kids fall back and slip between the cracks... it is beyond me that it happens, but have seen it all too often

5:08 am

lynxxx

Its such hard work for concientous kids nowadays..glad Madi has Lickety and you to keep her on an even keel

5:08 am

loredana

hi red great to see you

5:08 am

mrpresident

her red!! :)) long time no see/chat! nice to see you

5:08 am

lynxxx

Hi Red

hello Red.. ok here thanks REd and yourself?

5:09 am

redturtlehead

I'm doing well. I need to go run in about 20 minutes and I actually dont want to, but the weather is good...and its a short short run.

5:09 am

mrpresident

One thing that makes me feel better, Maddie doesn't feel like she is 'stupid' now that she realises she only had a quarter of the support she needed for her studies.

5:10 am

mrpresident

oh you are clever redT!! I can't run to save myself... have to get back to it when I have an arm again

5:11 am

redturtlehead

clever?

5:11 am

redturtlehead

I feel a little more like insane.

5:11 am

mrpresident

clever for being fit and healthy

5:11 am

redturtlehead

I do my best...

5:12 am

redturtlehead

having a good arm helps, how is yours doing post surgery?

5:13 am

mrpresident

my arm is slowly becoming part of me again... the weather has been a real bugger in all this (very cold) so it has been a bit hard to get used to

5:14 am

lynxxx

how is the hip area MRP?

5:14 am

redturtlehead

this sounds like excellent news Mr P.

5:14 am

mrpresident

lynx, that hurts! It has taken me a long time to accept that the pain there is going to remain. I also have some nerve damage so it is annoying on top of painful

5:17 am

lynxxx

You are a hero MRP - thats all I can say

5:20 am

mrpresident

ah not really lynxx, but thanks for the fuzzy warm feelings!

5:22 am

elder

Agree with Lynxx , your body has been in war zone.

5:22 am

loredana

8:29 am

mrpresident

and 600 are closing around the USA. their growth was too quick and their market was not welcome here.

8:30 am

mrpresident

it isn't bad here kje... it is the culture here, it has always had a very diverse coffee culture, and people are not prepared to pay for weak coffee when they can get the real stuff at a cafe that has been serving the good stuff for years before they came here

8:30 am

kje

I think the new Starbucks CEO wants to return to their roots as a true coffee shop - not a mini restaurant as some were getting to be

8:31 am

artlady

They did some research about the smell of the new breakfast sandwiches, and found people didn't like it--preferred the smell of coffee.

8:31 am

artlady

Mr p, it's funny because here a lot of people think Starbuck's coffee is TOO strong! (not me...)

8:31 am

kje

interesting - I heard comments, but didn't know that was true artlady

8:31 am

mrpresident

yes, they need to get back to what coffee is... not all these sweet syrups and crap... just real coffee.
One problem with starbucks is they have only got three levels of service.

8:31 am

kje

personally, I am a Peat's fan - made at home

8:33 am

mrpresident

When a business can't expand it's service, it will suffer in the short and long term. Just having weak coffee, a lounge to sit on and some crappy cakes isn't going to keep people there and spending

8:33 am

kje

clue for the very lonely Y?

8:33 am

Anniebrook

I was never a Starbucks fan...too expensive, slow service...love Dunkin Donuts...better tasting coffee and less expensive

8:34 am

nDanLia

rhymes with cake mixture pre-bake

8:34 am

artlady

to talk on and on kje

8:34 am

kje

TY dan!

8:34 am

Pinikula

Our campus Starbuck added Quiznos in the same space. Personally, I don't care for coffee; and to have coffee and over-priced sandwiches in the same place...well, conflict of aromas.

8:34 am

mrpresident

yes annie! way too expensive. I have had 1 coffee in my whole life from starbucks... it was yuck. I pay $3.00 for a coffee, I want it to be good!

8:35 am

kje

Starbucks is OK - order a french press of a bold blend with a real cup and it is fine - not weak

8:35 am

kje

ya6 is kinda what we do in the chog - LOL

8:35 am

Uniquity

I loathe coffee as it is, but once bought a hot chocolate from Starbucks at SIX dollars. Have boycotted it ever since.

8:36 am

Anniebrook

$6.00 for a hot chocolate is outrageous

8:36 am

mrpresident

$6.00!!! holy cow! that is just a ripoff!

8:36 am

Judi

$6.00 for hot chocolate!? That must have been the verona (melted chocolate).

8:36 am

Pinikula

It probably came out of a $0.50 prepackaged paper, Uniquity...just like about every other place that serves 'hot choc'...

8:37 am

kje

paid about that for hot chocolate in paris once - at angelina's - OMG!!!! I would have paid double!

8:37 am

Uniquity

Especially for a university student. Who needed to finish a paper, lol. The adventure was good, the price and hot chocolate were not.

8:37 am

movieman

clues for the top corner s plz

8:37 am

nDanLia

hate coffee - but get tea there [just 1 bag in large cup] & cost of amount of milk is covered by cost of tea

8:37 am

mrpresident

Hot chocolate at my canteen is $1.00... for a better hot chocolate it is $2.50... for top of the range, $3.45

8:37 am

Anniebrook

s and mo 4/5

8:38 am

I'm regretting starting the blasted thing.

9:23 am

Lizsark

9:23 am

FMitch

I found it very slow to star and then it wizzed and now I've hit the wall

9:23 am

mrpresident

liz and vic, I certainly am happy for resources for this one... it helped me finish

9:23 am

Lizsark

hey Ata did you see I overtook you on the pathwords ladder? *sticks tongue out*

9:24 am

Vicuna

I'm sure it'll come to that, mrp.

9:24 am

Atalante

*random* watching Radovan Karadzic in court. He just looks like he's a bit sad and bored. Incredible.

9:24 am

Atalante

gah!!

mrpresident

oh ata, that was a big 'nah nah nah nah nah!' LOL

9:24 am

Lizsark

he's a very bizarre man Ata

9:25 am

Lizsark

it was MrP!!! LOL

9:25 am

Atalante

he really is. it's all so emotionless

9:26 am

mrpresident

ata, imagining what he has seen, he would be desensitized

9:26 am

Lizsark

I think you're right MrP - I think he'd have to be

9:27 am

FMitch

you are presuming he had feelings in the first place

9:27 am

Atalante

you'd hope he was more alive when fighting for his *own* freedom!

9:28 am

mrpresident

it could be that he has resigned himself to his fate... he was hiding as a 'wholistic' person after all... karma is a bitch

9:28 am

Lizsark

FM I always think what must people like that have been as small children?

9:29 am

FMitch

mmm Liz, were they normal children or not and if yes, what must have happened to change them

9:29 am

Atalante

I think you might be right, mrp. I just find it so hard to understand someone in that position and just looking bored!

9:29 am

Vicuna

its that whole nature/nurture thing that gets my head spinning

9:29 am

the UN are the biggest problem this planet has. They are really not helping

9:39 am

Lizsark

United Numpties

9:39 am

Vicuna

The biggest? That's quite a statement.

9:39 am

mrpresident

yes vic. it is a statement. they really have alot to answer for in regards to war and humanity

9:40 am

Vicuna

I once saw a commercial stating that "NOTHING is worse than a yeast infection" and I thought, yeah that's bad... but I can think of a couple of things that are worse.

Hi folks. Just on for a very few minutes before House starts. Stalled out before at 106 words. Let's see how far I get...

1:01 pm

nancethefan

*hey

1:02 pm

Robo-bonobo

hello. just need that one more, if anyone has a hint

1:02 pm

nancethefan

hey games - i love House

1:02 pm

nancethefan

i don't have it, sorry

1:03 pm

MonkeyGames

Were you a Hugh Laurie fan before? Because if you weren't you're missing the REALLY surreal aspects...

1:03 pm

nancethefan

no i wasn't. i do really love him in this show.

1:04 pm

jessmom

co8 turn together

1:04 pm

Robo-bonobo

thanks jess :)

1:04 pm

jessmom

yw robo

1:05 pm

MonkeyGames

He's fabulous! But just google "Hugh Laurie" and Black Adder, and especially A Bit of Fry and Laurie (there's lots on youtube) and you'll see the bizarre foppish English commedian we knew and loved. No idea how he could have been cast as House... but no complaints here!

1:06 pm

nancethefan

i think he's great - i didn't like the last 2 episodes that were made after the writers' strike though. it seemed they just threw something on paper to end the season.

1:07 pm

MonkeyGames

Hmmm. We have differing opinions then. Ithought they used the strike tome to break fresh ground and introduce a thread of surreality that had gradually faded out.

1:08 pm

nancethefan

i really didn't care for it.

1:08 pm

MonkeyGames

I do have to wonder what will become of his relationship with Wilson though...

1:08 pm

MonkeyGames

They can't lose Wilson! He's Watson!

1:08 pm

nancethefan

me, too.

1:09 pm

MonkeyGames

Funnily enough, I didn't care for the South Pole one... which is the most popular episode of all, it turns out.

1:09 pm

nancethefan

he really didn't do anything with amber though. i think that's their friendships saving grace.

1:09 pm

wickdsmaht

Morning everyone. It's a good day if you're talking about Hugh Laurie. ;-)

1:09 pm

nancethefan

lol - i really enjoyed that one

1:09 pm

nancethefan

hey wick

1:10 pm

nancethefan

brb - laundry buzzer calls

1:10 pm

MonkeyGames

Hee hee! There we go then.

1:11 pm

MonkeyGames

Yeah, Wickd... she wasn't familiar with his earlier work. I forst watched teh show to see what the hell they thought they were doing castinghim as an Americn doctor.... And was an instant convert to the whole idea.

1:13 pm

wickdsmaht

I was really excited to see him in House. Fry and Laurie is great! And I love them as Jeeves and Wooster, too.

1:13 pm

wickdsmaht

He does the best American accent I've heard from a Brit.

1:14 pm

MonkeyGames

It sure is amazing. I like to send people unfamiliar with his earlier carreer that bit from Blackadder where he starts gradually doing the chicken impression...... Have you hear dthe complaints that in one scene he "laughs British"? I mean get a grip!

1:15 pm

jessmom

I wouldn't care...I like his accent :)

1:15 pm

wickdsmaht

Seriously? There are complaints? Geez. I have yet to hear an American master the British accent. I think Laurie does a darn fine job with the American accent. And he does so with the most wonderfully snarky tone.

1:16 pm

tijani

ot5/10 not the fury water creature

1:16 pm

jessmom

change the last vowel tij

1:16 pm

MonkeyGames

He does such a good job that all the complainers can come up with is this one bot where he laughs "in a British way". I have seen the moment and feel almost any culture could have produced the laugh.

1:16 pm

tijani

thx jessmom

1:16 pm

MonkeyGames

You've watched the bloopers on You Tube right?

1:16 pm

jessmom

1:17 pm

I haven't! I must.

1:17 pm

MonkeyGames

DO! DO!!!! Oops, brb...

1:18 pm

Atalante

it's funny watching Hugh as an American, but its equally funny watching a grown-up Jesse Spencer away from Neighbours

1:19 pm

wickdsmaht

I've never actually seen Neighbours

1:19 pm

Atalante

he was about 10 in Neighbours :P

1:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Ewww, Neighbors. (Back... 8 minutes to House... had to go talk to insomniac toddler)

1:22 pm

MonkeyGames

Was he on that? Intersting.

1:22 pm

Atalante

google Billy Kennedy

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

Funny! Have to start somewhere I suppose...

1:23 pm

Atalante

he was in neighbours for *years*

1:23 pm

MonkeyGames

Damn it, now I have the theme tune in my head. That can only be a bad sign... it'll be Eastenders next, you just watch.

2:18 pm

nancethefan

2:18 pm

Vicuna

My guess, however, would be that the hot rollers work like an iron to smooth the paper, while the cold rollers are insufficient to get the ridges out.

2:18 pm

icepyro

what happens in bizzaro world, STAYS in bizzaro world... just remember that

Darn, froch isn't a word.

2:21 pm

To hideously cut an earlier conversation on here short, watch the bloopers on You Tube! And if you don't know Laurie's earlier woirk watch A Bit of Fry and Laurie and Black Adder.

2:21 pm

nancethefan

hey crpw

2:22 pm

Colfer isn't a word either. For the record.

2:23 pm

2:34 pm

MonkeyGames

I understand completely! We have to deal with it though, don't we? Walter's been home with the sinusitis and today he tried to be clingy and had to be pried off me cryinga t daycare, which really messed me up although of course I matter-of -factly had to just say Bye! and goout--- then he had a great day and even spoke more there (in Dutch) than often. So of course we have to suffer at separations but often it is for the best.

2:34 pm

I have watched it meliae, but I keep forgetting when it is on

4:51 pm

meliae

I really like the show except for the fact that one person can get a lot of money answering question after question then one of the 'spoilers' in the last few minutes can swoop in and take it all, I wish they would change that aspect of the game

4:52 pm

periwinkle

I like the show too, must check to see what time it is on

4:52 pm

meliae

you could gamble and cheat by staying in the back and not answering any questions then swoop in at the end and win

4:53 pm

meliae

its on 2 times in a row here in oregon from 2pm to 3 pm

4:53 pm

4:53 pm

meliae

on a local channel not cbs nbc or any of those

Hi Ata. Elder the biscuits are for the weekend. I am likely never going to make caramel slice again unless i find a cheat recipe

5:03 pm

Not good for Mc Cann (if true ) to be speaking like that it will/should cost him votes.

5:05 pm

people who don't understand anything about technology should not be allowed to use Eudora on a Mac and then blame other people when emails don't show up formatted properly.

5:07 pm

herin, well at least you will enjoy:)

5:08 pm

elder

hello Hursh..

5:08 pm

meliae

they are saying he acts like a celebrity and he should not be going to other countries and making nice, well I think that is a wonderful thing to do as it keeps communication easier if they like and respect our president

5:08 pm

hurshy

hello

amen hursh, amen

Hi Candy. Just the recipe was a pain in the butt. Make base, put base in fridge for 30 min then oven bake for x amount of time. Take out of oven cool. Make caramel innards cool slightly bake for 15 take out cool, make choc topping top the caramel then put in fridge over night. Yes its yummy but too many steps. I made 2 other batches of biscuits and dinner waiting for the slice to process.

5:09 pm

herinfernallady

HI Knight and Hurshy

5:09 pm

meliae

People who dont understand any kind of technology should not use it and then blame others for their mistakes!

5:09 pm

melia -where are you?

5:10 pm

AsGreen

I was just on the phone with friends going to the concert. They are PARKED on the highway right now

5:10 pm

hurshy

my boss thinks that because she sends a test email to herself first, that means that if that looks right, it will look exactly that way on everyone else's computer.

5:10 pm

meliae

oh no!

5:10 pm

AsGreen

ok, I should focus - 14 left.... dragging here

5:10 pm

candy1

My recipe doesn't take that long. I can make the caramel while the base is baking then put it on even if the base is still slightly hot. You only have to wait for the caramel to cool before covering with choc

5:10 pm

elder

My It skills are poor ! but I know where the blame lays.. when things go wrong ...undoubtedly me !!

5:11 pm

elder

Hursh, even I know better than that !

5:11 pm

AsGreen

candy, your icon is so mean!!! ;)

5:11 pm

KnightTime

interesting hursh, I am sure there are about 17 logical fallicies incorporated into her reasoning

5:11 pm

herinfernallady

Thanks Candy i will look into that

5:12 pm

hurshy

it would be funny if it didn't mean that she thinks MY emails are coming out "too small" and stuff, when they are coming out fine on most people's systems!

5:12 pm

candy1

I know As and I can't get it changed

5:18 pm

5:34 pm

danf63

He's VERY excited! I'm nervous, but he does fine whenever he plays, so I'm sure he'll be ok...Clarinet and bass clarinet, didn't think to ask which one he's taking

5:34 pm

hurshy

(together) = 2 letters + (spin) = 6 letters

5:34 pm

AsGreen

lol - well, apparently she has a "skit load" of stuff and wants help finding it all.

5:35 pm

hurshy

--> (co8) = 8 letters

5:35 pm

danf63

co8 is co + ro6 that means spin around an axis

5:35 pm

AsGreen

well, not to be the only spoil sport here - but I think Hasbro has a valid point, I was always surprised it looked so much like scrabble and used their name

5:37 pm

kje

hi tijani

5:37 pm

herinfernallady

Green someone like her should to an Elton John Garage sale and donate the money to charity.

5:37 pm

hurshy

but it is STUPID of them, because people were buying the board game scrabble because of facebook. it made them money, and by doing this they just make people dislike them.

5:38 pm

herinfernallady

KJE it did didn't it

5:38 pm

hurshy

is wordscraper made by the guys that made scrabulous?

5:38 pm

danf63

he just called again...clarinet only, concert in 4 weeks, and he may wet himself he's so excited! He called the bandleader, and the leader said, "Your Josh's student! when are you coming?" (Josh Prout is his band teacher from last year)

OH Fantastic Dan.

5:39 pm

kje

I don't know if that is true hursh - I bet most people who played scrabulous already owned scrabble and have since childhood - the real issue is a tiny company in India copying protected material - it goes deeper than just this game

5:39 pm

danf63

no red...just a couple changes of pants and laundry soap

KJE in the art industry it happens alot. Its really crappy. Just change this bit here and look its different so they don't have to pay credits. This man David Franj wrote Vanessa Amorosi's hit song Perfect and then she or the music people changed it slightly and then took down his song of Youtube.

6:00 pm

6:01 pm

redturtlehead

Well its a bit personal, but I was wondering how you went about incorporating your girlfriend into your life with Darth, without Darth getting upset or hating her.

6:01 pm

danf63

the co4/8?

6:01 pm

hurshy

i am assuming, btw, that there are no ct words, but not long ago, there was one.

6:02 pm

redturtlehead

Not today Hursh...

6:02 pm

KnightTime

not in this grid

6:02 pm

hurshy

yes, knight just asked me about that one, apparently it is a mining basket.

6:02 pm

redturtlehead

Of course Darth is at an age where he can function very well independently...

6:02 pm

kje

thank god for that - don't know a ct word, I don't think

6:03 pm

danf63

I don't have a GF at the moment, just some ladies I go out with when darth is at his Mom's house. He can function on his own, but HATES when i go out, so I usually tell him I'm going out with no details

6:03 pm

KnightTime

how about the mustard plant hurshy?

6:03 pm

hurshy

i also need an A word, i have ai and 3 at

6:03 pm

6:05 pm

hurshy

and a famous singer nat king?

6:06 pm

danf63

don't compare my situation to your red...Darth's Mom has had a BF or husband since we divorced when he was 2. She was 22 at the time, and wasn't ready to be a mom yet. she spent most of her time with him "stuck", and he was slighted.

6:06 pm

KnightTime

si, si

6:06 pm

hurshy

brand of shoe, eh? reebok, nike... umm... um....

6:06 pm

KnightTime

co**-haan

hurshy

kje

co** Haan - expensive shoes : )

6:06 pm

Aussieme

Oh Dan, thats awful,

6:07 pm

hurshy

did they ever mention them on sex and the city? that is my only source of shoe knowledge

6:07 pm

danf63

Darth's mom has ALWAYS been a "me first" person, and he came 4th or 5th in her life. I was older when he was born, and he has always been my top priority, and he knows that. He wants me to be single so it stays that way

6:07 pm

hurshy

but maybe this is all the same word

6:07 pm

redturtlehead

Well, its a similar situation but not entirely. And we will see if it progresses, I may be planning and not need to be.

6:07 pm

hurshy

which is not helping me get the one i DON'T have.

6:07 pm

kje

no - would not have been on sex and the city

6:07 pm

KnightTime

having never watched that show I cannot answer

6:08 pm

6:09 pm

redturtlehead

oh crud, I have the 66 left and like 45 minutes before I have to go to sleep.

6:09 pm

Aussieme

Dan, **I know this is stupid**. Have you ever sat down and told Darth that no matter who you are with, he will always be number one in your life ?

6:09 pm

redturtlehead

jessmom

I'm still amazed to see what they create.

6:10 pm

Aussieme

Oh Poo.....

6:10 pm

danf63

yes aussie, but it is hard to make a little kid understand, and although it has been years now, he still has in his mind that if I get a GF he will get ignored/left behind

6:10 pm

hurshy

i am so pathetic, i can't find the other at5

6:10 pm

redturtlehead

7:49 pm

hi peri!

7:50 pm

smaller

maybe Charli2 has speech impediment and he/she types like he/she speaks.

7:50 pm

icepyro

they make a small app called toddler keys or something like that so that while the screensaver is on, you have to type a specific word/phrase that the keyboard banging wont do in order to leave the screensaver

7:50 pm

AprilD

I think perhaps you had it the first time, a kid, or perhaps something was on the keyboard

7:51 pm

smaller

or maybe he/she sneezed with such force that it engaged all those keys and the enter button

7:51 pm

icepyro

looked like either a toddler or a cat...

7:51 pm

AprilD

yah, the enter button is the intersting part

7:52 pm

my cats enter the most interesting things at times
