Wish I'd actually "forced" Walter to take it easier though. He still isn't all that well, but he acted like it yesterday and is pale and tired today and again complaining of a sore throat. I guess it'll be back to the doctor.

It really rather sucks, to be honest. Won't be going to work tomorrow. Walter also really overdid it yesterday-- I should have enforced some rest! He's tired and unwell again, but not TOO bad, but I think we'll be headed back to the doctor Tuesday to push the idea that this could be something bacterial.

2:41 am

herinfernallady

Lickety there was no video yesturday. HI SPrite

2:41 am

4:01 am

GroovyKiwi

i did get it spritey was just winding you up lol

4:01 am

sprite

not nice, Kiwi.

4:02 am

warthog

sn 7 an adverb for the white stuff, an awkard word

4:02 am

GroovyKiwi

hey i havent picked on you for months woman not since you stuck me in the PB for mentioning FOOD lol

4:02 am

Anne38

hi everyone xxxxxxxxxxxxx can i get a clue for the ya 6/33 have tried for ages just cannot get it

4:03 am

sprite

hm, looks like you need another dose of PB time, Kiwi, to get you back to reasonable behaviour.

4:03 am

GroovyKiwi

sounds like slang for an american anne but with the double letter tile in it and then pluraled

4:03 am

sprite

hiya Anne, neither could we. Word for an American, but spelled like it is mexican.

4:04 am

GroovyKiwi

not fair im enjoying picking on ruru too much spritey

4:04 am

sprite

the plural is the 7, don't let that darn Kiwi confuse you

4:04 am

sprite

you are safe as long as you pick on ruru. But when you start with me, you are in trouble.

4:05 am

warthog

anyone know wi 6 30?

4:05 am

Anne38

i am totally confused with this ya lol

4:05 am

warthog

or wi 5 18

4:05 am

GroovyKiwi

take the drunk worthog and plural it

4:05 am

warthog

I wonder if a computer makes this up or if a person does

4:06 am

GroovyKiwi

anne do you know that song Ya*k*e doodle dandy?

4:06 am

warthog

ohhh thank you kiwi

4:06 am

sprite

the grids are computer generated, warthog, and the words that are valid are dictated by the enable dictionary, an old version.

4:06 am

Anne38

yes kiwi

4:07 am

GroovyKiwi

the wi5.18 is a an exclamation of sorrow or lament.

4:07 am

GroovyKiwi

ok change the spelling on the first word and add the double letter tile in there

4:08 am

warthog

thanks sprite... i wondered because it seemed arbitrary and antique sometimes

4:08 am

sprite

I think you mean the wo5.18?

4:08 am

warthog

thanks kiwi... i will have to ponder that

4:08 am

GroovyKiwi

spritey put ya glasses on hun there is no wi 5

4:08 am

GroovyKiwi

wo 5 even

4:09 am

sprite

that's enable for you, warthog, lol. We love to hate the Enable dictionary. But it is free and it is used for many other wordgames, so it was a logical choice.

4:09 am

sprite

there is a wi5, silly. Plural good stuff to drink. As you should know.

4:09 am

Anne38

thank you kiwi xxxxxxxxxxxx i would never have got that xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

4:09 am

sprite

I don't use the list, how I am to know.

4:09 am

GroovyKiwi

the enable dictionary has been a great grounding for me when playing scrabulous lolol

4:10 am

sprite

and another one too, other middle letter.

4:10 am

warthog

i got the plural good stuff to drink but there's another wi 5 18

4:10 am

GroovyKiwi

4:12 am

GroovyKiwi

4:13 am

sprite

Kiwi is always silly and sprite is not always right

4:13 am

warthog

4:13 am

warthog

pondering....

4:13 am

GroovyKiwi

4:13 am

sprite

when I don't, I look them up, warthog. Learned a lot of totally useless words that way.

6:26 am

mrpresident

ah, she is 33!! and she did get silver! fantastic.... but the korean girl got gold cause her final vault was considered more difficult, even though she didn't stick the landing, and was outside the line too.
I think that sucks

6:26 am

lynxxx

Hooray!

6:26 am

carleekat

I've decided to host a couple wine tastings in the house here...so am getting them for free...a free 120 bottles of wine:)

6:27 am

carleekat

33 year old gymnst?

6:27 am

carleekat

I thought gymnastics was over

6:27 am

mrpresident

yep carlee, amazing story behind her too

6:27 am

lynxxx

Wow! that sounds right up your alley Carlee - and 120 bottles should last a while!

6:28 am

carleekat

cool... and..yes will....we have a new shiraz, a new carmenere, a new tres tinto...and am doing a brunello

6:28 am

mrpresident

gymnastics goes for another 3 days

6:29 am

carleekat

6:29 am

hydra

Morning carlee, mrP, lynxxx. The grid seems to have a wedding theme today. Perhaps DrGod was thinking of Peaches Geldof!

6:29 am

carleekat

whats a peaches geldof?

6:30 am

lynxxx

hi Hydra

6:30 am

hydra

Hi lynxxx

6:30 am

lynxxx

lol - it does sound like a wine Carlee

6:30 am

hydra

Yes Peaches Geldof does sound like a cocktail!

6:30 am

carleekat

and hi hydra

6:31 am

Scrabbler

Good day all. I am just checking in before a kayaking adventure.

6:31 am

carleekat

lynxx..come set with me in the pb

6:31 am

carleekat

6:31 am

hydra

Ooh, how exciting Scrab! Have fun and don't get water up your nose

6:31 am

mrpresident

hi scrabbs

6:31 am

lynxxx

Duhhh - silly me

6:31 am

lynxxx

Hi Scrabs

6:32 am

Dorens

morning. scrabb you're all better now?

6:32 am

hydra

Morning Dorens

6:32 am

Scrabbler

I got back from the mountains on Tuesday evening--it was glorious, magical, renewing...a great time!

6:32 am

lynxxx

hi Dorens

6:32 am

carleekat

wonderful...am glad to hear it..u needed to recharge

6:32 am

Dorens

oh how wonderful. just what you needed. hy hydra

6:32 am

Dorens

hi lynxxx

6:33 am

Dorens

hah carlee. thinking alke there

6:33 am

carleekat

and hi hydra)..so..what a peaches geldof?

6:33 am

Scrabbler

Well, Doren, my cough finally is gone, just in the last week, after 5 wks, and my sciatica is improved but noy gone and not stopping me from kayaking. But the indoor tennis season starts soon and I may have to delay my start.

6:33 am

Dorens

yes, i'm wondering that myself. i like peaches

6:34 am

Dorens

the sciatica needs to be listened to, but you know that. did you end up with an mri?

6:34 am

lynxxx

I am sure it would be Bob Geldofs daughter, probably getting married

6:35 am

Scrabbler

No MRI and no doctor visit, because clinically I am improving. The numbness just went away a few days ago. I am still having twinges of pain in my hip and pelvis.

6:35 am

Dorens

sounds like a good guess. we hear a lot less of bob geldof over here

6:35 am

hydra

So you weren't joking, Carlee? It's Sir Bob Geldof's daughter who just got married in the States to some wannabe popstar she's only known five mins. It's been all over the papers.

6:36 am

hydra

Silly girl, but who am I to pass judgement? I moved in with my ex hubby the day we met and got married a few weeks later. It was a disaster.

6:36 am

Dorens

not the papers i read, but then again, now that i think of it, i haven't looked in the last couple of days. they are piling up!

6:36 am

lynxxx

10 left for me - for breakfast in the morning. Nite all, good to see you all again

6:36 am

hydra

I was referring to Peaches as a silly girl, not you, carlee!

6:37 am

mrpresident

it is all a publicity stunt for the boyfriend's band... the announcement by the publicist mainly talks about the band, who they are signed with and when they are playing... pathetic

6:37 am

carleekat

no..i wasn't kidding..and NOW I know I gave up waiting and googled here...maxdrumney is the groom...she wore a cream dress and he did not take off his sunglasses

6:37 am

Dorens

nite lynxxx sweet dreams

6:37 am

hydra

Nite, Lynxxxzzzzz

6:37 am

Scrabbler

Sleep well, Lynxxx. And can you get Eamon Sullivan's phone number for me? He is quite the hottie!

6:37 am

hydra

I agree, mrp. Totally pathetic.

6:37 am

carleekat

nitenite lynxxxy

6:37 am

hydra

Eamon Sullivan? I must Google him if he's that hot!

6:38 am

Dorens

i pay no attention to pop weddings and even less if i've never heard of the participants

6:38 am

Scrabbler

Swimmer for Oz--anchor man in the 200 medley relay.

6:38 am

Dorens

hot is in the eye of the beholder

6:38 am

carleekat

I agree dorens...

6:38 am

Scrabbler

It sure is, Doren.

6:38 am

hydra

Ooh yes, he's pretty gorgeous!

6:39 am

carleekat

just like George...ble

6:39 am

Dorens

now george, that is another story entirely!!

6:39 am

carleekat

his ears stick out like little handle bars...bleck

6:40 am

carleekat

no one is THAT good you need ears like that to hang on with....

6:40 am

hydra

I love the purples and mauves of the icons!

6:40 am

mrpresident

stick out ears are cute!

6:40 am

carleekat

and then there is scrabs :)

6:41 am

Dorens

they certainly can be

6:41 am

carleekat

stick out ears reminds me of prince charles...ble

6:41 am

Dorens

yes, that's true hydra... ccarlee and i go well together

6:41 am

carleekat

if they that good you hang on the the arse..not the ears

6:41 am

Dorens

well, carlee. the face has to be a thing of beauty and then the ears are ok

6:43 am

Scrabbler

I was looking at more pics of young Eamon, and I'll take him, at least for a few days.

6:44 am

Dorens

i did think he looked cute on the telly last nite... but he is just a bit too young for me to view that way.

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Well, I am entirely joking, of course. I don't have time for a relationship anyway. The fantasies are easier to manage.

6:45 am

carleekat

so...did dude get his 8th swimming medal?

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Yep, he sure did, Carlee.

6:45 am

Dorens

yes

6:45 am

carleekat

well..there u go..am all caught up

6:46 am

Dorens

fantasies are fine... but he is four years younger than my youngest child... can't fantasize about a baby. but George... well, he's younger than I am too, but that's ok

6:46 am

hydra

Sean Bean and Alan Rickman are the guys I fantasise about.

6:46 am

Dorens

but then again, i do seem to be in a real relationship these days, so am i "cheatiing" if I dream of George?

6:46 am

Scrabbler

OK, I found 52 and must get ready now. Enjoy the day everyone!

6:47 am

carleekat

happy kayaking

6:47 am

Dorens

yu too scrabbs! enjoy the ride

6:47 am

Scrabbler

Nope, you are OK, Doren, until you are engaged and committed.

6:47 am

hydra

You're not cheating if you 'dream' of him, Dorens. How do you know who your other half dreams about? Mine keeps going on about the Dagenham Girl Pipers!!!

6:47 am

Dorens

haha hydra, too true! probably penelope cruz

6:48 am

hydra

Best not to ask!

6:48 am

Dorens

never heard of the dagenham girl pipers, but i'm sure you're far far better

6:49 am

hydra

*blush* Wot, me? I'm 63!

6:49 am

Dorens

and???? nothing wrong with age

6:49 am

hydra

If anyone's interested, I'm editing the memoirs of a brothel madam at the mo. Chapter 1 is on her website: www.madam-vanessa.com

6:49 am

MonkeyGames

Just on for a back-rest break; so... anyone know anything about rare chili pepper varieties?

8:10 am

MonkeyGames

And can anyone clue the tr5/16?

8:11 am

movieman

Monkey, have you heard of a chilli called the Dorset Naga? Apparently it's the hottest chilli in the world

8:11 am

MonkeyGames

I will have to look that up! I had heard that there was a new English variety that was topping the charts.

8:12 am

MonkeyGames

I was just out looking at my chili plants that have been through an unbelievable series of hardships. They are now starting to produce! Looks like the chilis (a wild kind cultivated nowhere and found on the slopes of the Himalayas) will be BLACK!

8:13 am

MonkeyGames

Thought they'd be red. These are some extreme chilis but they also have an excellently balanced flavor. I really hope I can eke a seed crop out of them. I started with one leftover dried chili.

8:14 am

MonkeyGames

How can there be more ti words?! Sigh.

8:15 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, I see. Just type in random combinations start ing with ti. Well, that's easy!

8:20 am

BerniceQ

monkey, did you get the TR 5/16 or do you still need a clue?

8:20 am

MonkeyGames

OK, who can clue the me5/12 that is not a me*** to an end?

8:21 am

MonkeyGames

Still need that clue, Bernice; gave up on it an dlooked for others!

8:21 am

BerniceQ

monkey, ME 5/12 it sounds like the group for smart people but change the last vowel

8:21 am

BerniceQ

and TR 5/16 is if at first you don't succeed, *** again + a shortened term for mother

8:21 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks, shoulda seen that!!

8:22 am

MonkeyGames

Whereas that one is just plain weird! Thank you!

8:22 am

BerniceQ

no problem!

Karys

wi5/18.......wi + dbl cons and first vowel ...( sorry thats the best I can do ! )

9:01 am

9:01 am

Pinikula

9:01 am

Karys

ty for el6 !!

9:02 am

kje

9:04 am

kje

i really want flirt...and flirty... but they are phantoms

9:05 am

Pinikula

I have 3/7 Fs and keep wanting to use them, too, kje...but they're just not working for me! lol

9:11 am

Anniebrook

peri, cats are this fi5

9:11 am

9:11 am

kje

9:11 am

periwinkle

9:11 am

periwinkle

9:11 am

BerniceQ

yes, i have that one kje. are there 5 FI 4/7s?

Hey kje, they just did some studies that show that there may be a link between many (but of course by no means all) cases of childhood autism and post lyme syndrome. I was just wondering if anyone's done any looking into the elderly regarding this. I mean, if someone over 75 presents and complains that their joints ache and they have more trouble remembering things than they used to, probably post lyme would not be the doctor's first thought. Just purely out of interest, given some lyme disease experiences in teh social work sphere I have had recently.

It also alerted the dog, but she's so wrecked from visiting Sprite yesterday she decided to lie back down instead of helpfully poking the cat.

She's a Great Dane, y'know. It's quite funny when she pokes the cat.

For the record, teh cat usually responds by getting a firm grip on teh dog's cheeks and washing her eyebrows.

2:06 pm

pugmama763

can't believe such great sound from those tiny ear buds!

2:06 pm

MetFan

No, my landlord gardens, I just steal when they're not home. But it's OK, his wife's friend picks my fresh mint, so it's a trade-off.

2:07 pm

pugmama763

Mint!

2:07 pm

MonkeyGames

Fair enough!

2:08 pm

MonkeyGames

I have mint. My ex-landlord's parents had cilantro in FIELDS. I was encouraged to pick it and the green onions whenever I wanted.

2:08 pm

MetFan

I have the black thumb of Death when it comes to plants and flowers, so I leave it to the experts.

2:08 pm

Met did I tell you my Kitty died Aug 2nd?

2:09 pm

MetFan

I only ever use the mint if I brew fresh iced tea, so they're welcome to it.

2:09 pm

MetFan

Which kitty, pug?

2:09 pm

pugmama763

I'm so sorry, Pug! I missed that!

2:10 pm

2:10 pm

MetFan

I'm sorry, dear. What happened?

2:10 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh no! Poor kitty! Poor you!

2:11 pm

pugmama763

I think she either ate something poison or got snake bitten or something

2:11 pm

MonkeyGames

I am SO sorry!

2:11 pm

MetFan

Sorry, dear. I'm not big on kitties, but I liked Pumpkin.

2:12 pm

pugmama763

and it was a Saturday so the Vets were all closed & only emergency vet clinic is an hour away! she held on till we were 10 minutes from it:(

2:12 pm

MetFan

THAT blows!!

2:13 pm

pugmama763

it was horrid to see her in such agony and all I could do was drive!

2:13 pm

pugmama763

I NEVER want to see another living thing suffer like that again! PLEASE GOD!

2:13 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh no, that's awful! I had a kitten go through that once. Poor kitty! Sounds like poisooning. Again I am so sorry!

2:13 pm

MetFan

BTW, when I got your candle, I lit one too. Did you see it?

2:14 pm

pugmama763

no but I will look later dear TY

2:14 pm

pugmama763

ty for the support Met & monkey:)

2:15 pm

Just know my thoughts are with you.

2:15 pm

Wish you had told me when it happened.

2:15 pm

pugmama763

thanks dear

2:16 pm

pugmama763

I was pretty traumatised , couldn't sleep for days!

2:16 pm

pugmama763

was hard to talk about too much

2:16 pm

MonkeyGames

The kitten I had rescued from a pet store of more than questionable character (did not pay for him). They took me aside after he died to discuss his emacoiated state but were fully understandingw hen they heard I had only had him a couple of weeks and was doing everything right. His slpeen had been stunted by his earlier neglect an dhe went into seizures. Didn't quite make it to the night vet.

2:17 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh, I'm sure it was absolutely terrible for you! I wish I'd known so I could have sent you good thoughts. Not much help, but well, wat I could do.

2:17 pm

pugmama763

(((((oh Monkey)))))) so sorry dear!

2:17 pm

MetFan

That sounds horrible!!

2:18 pm

MonkeyGames

It was about 20 years ago. But it was bad. Poor kitten.

2:18 pm

pugmama763

hate seeing anything suffer!!!

2:18 pm

MonkeyGames

It was idiocy, not deliberate abuse, but that didn't help the kitten. When I asked about him they said, "He's too small for dry cat foiod and will not eat wet so, oh well!"

2:18 pm

MonkeyGames

ME TOO!

2:19 pm

MonkeyGames

When I pushed the issue they gave him to me. I called a vet immediately and they said give him meat-based human baby food and he DID eat it. But it was already too late.

2:19 pm

pugmama763

why I couldn't finish nursing school! Had great grades but was too affected by the patients emotionally during clinical hours in the nursing hame SOOOO SAD!!!

2:20 pm

2:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Yes, I did call the pet store in to the Humane Society.

2:21 pm

Personally, I feel that if more time and resources were focused on shutting down disreputable breeders and pet suppliers, there would be less need to "ban" breeds.

It's not the breeds that are dangerous, it's the people training them!!

2:35 pm

MonkeyGames

Back! I agree. Case in point, they banned pit bulls here about 15 years ago. The ban was rescinded last week because a) there were no fewer reports if bites coming in, and b) when they looked at the stats daschunds and golden retrievers bite more people anyway.

2:35 pm

ShadowHyrst

ti 4/4...so obvious, but so elusive...thanks pugmama

2:35 pm

MetFan

My niece has a HUGE pitbull mix, and he is the sweetest mush you've ever seen!!

not to mention my "pet peecve" of all the irresponsible owner that don't spay/neuter!

2:35 pm

(as I look over to my 120 pound rottie who is laying on her winnie the pooh blankie with her baby bears from Ikea)

2:36 pm

MetFan

awwww, autumn - so cute!!!

2:36 pm

MonkeyGames

We spayed our 51-kilo champion-line Great Dane and had her stomach attached so she can't get bloat. I was 8 weeks pregnant when she was 8 weeks old.

2:36 pm

autumn moon

not spaying/neutering the pet isn't the issue. It's the responsiblity of when nature calls..... I didn't spay my girl until she was 5. Had no problems

2:36 pm

ShadowHyrst

I miss my 100+ lb Rot mix that would cuddle with the kittens

2:37 pm

pugmama763

yes but I said IRRESPOSIBLE owners that don't spay neuter

2:37 pm

ShadowHyrst

responsible ownership is an imperitive criteria that should be applied to ownership, but never is...for fish, chicks, rabbits, cats, dogs, birds, or even snakes...and that causes much of the problems we face as owners

2:38 pm

MonkeyGames

But you DID spay. That's good. They can get pyometra if they don't gat pregnant but do remain intact.

2:38 pm

autumn moon

if you look at the pics on my profile, you will see her baby bear. She has 4 of them that she carries around. She'll offer them to you if you come to the door

2:38 pm

pugmama763

I had a 140lb elkhound shepherd mix that cuddled kittens too!

2:39 pm

autumn moon

I spayed because of pyometria. we were just finalizing stud service with another owner for her next heat when she got sick

2:39 pm

pugmama763

my puggy always greets people with his dollys too!

2:39 pm

MonkeyGames

Oh, now that IS too bad! Poor girl, and poor you.

2:39 pm

MonkeyGames

Glad she came out of it OK!

2:39 pm

pugmama763

sorry autumn...

2:40 pm

autumn moon

We were a little diappointed about having to spay her but.... she's alive and still a big puppy

2:40 pm

MonkeyGames

We spayed our gorl because we had no intention to breed her. SINCE then we have encountered 2 good reasons why that was a good thing.

2:41 pm

autumn moon

Now, if I could get her paw to heal faster, I would be much happier

2:41 pm

MonkeyGames

What's the issue? I have worked for many vets...

2:42 pm

pugmama763

that's my point breeding should be left to the real breeders & all other companion critters fixed!

2:42 pm

autumn moon

yes, pug. Totally agree with that.

2:43 pm

autumn moon

her paw? She scrapped with something in the back yard a week ago, ran into the back corner of the yard and cut her pad on something. Vet bandaged it up. We go back to see him tomorrow afternoon

2:43 pm

MonkeyGames

Well, our gorl's father was Benelux champion and she has long lines on both sides to match. There would have been noproblem finding a qualified healthy match to get some good pups. But she was meant to be the Family Dog. And since trhen we have had issues with the breeder about hetr vertebra deformity and her shyness.

2:43 pm

pugmama763

my pug is from excellent show lines but I still got him fixed young as I had no intent to show or breed him!

2:43 pm

ShadowHyrst

with cloning now becoming an option, deserving dogs with those traits we loved, could be cloned when the old animal dies...short circuits the breeding/spay issue--and some day will be less costly

2:44 pm

MonkeyGames

OK, Should be soaked in biotex for cleaning. But a week is no big deal, honestly-- Saskia was out with a cut pad for six weeks once, and more recently for 8 with a broken nail that had to be stripped.

2:44 pm

MetFan

The cloning issue sounds like something out of "Pet Semetary".

2:44 pm

pugmama763

but there is something ,well, Un-Godly, about the whole cloning thing

2:45 pm

autumn moon

hear hear pug. Not sure about cloning.... it's just not right

2:45 pm

ShadowHyrst

but becoming more availble, and probable in the next 10 years or so

2:45 pm

pugmama763

makes me creep out BIG TIME!

2:45 pm

MonkeyGames

Hey, Shadow, you're a kook like me! Sorry, Pug, but it's just the sam eas breeding for traits but faster and more sure, onceit's perfected.

2:45 pm

MetFan

Scientists are so gung-ho on whether they can do it, they don;t think "SHOULD they?"!!!

2:45 pm

MonkeyGames

Besides, good clonig will mean if I ever need a new heart I can have MY OWN...

2:46 pm

pugmama763

AMEN MET!!!

2:46 pm

ShadowHyrst

I'm sure that artificial insemination was once thought 'not right'...but attitudes change with time

2:46 pm

pugmama763

OOPS PB $ ME!!!

2:46 pm

MonkeyGames

Sure, but that's corporate science. It sucks an dit's most of them, but it just gives a bad name to some good stuff.

2:46 pm

MonkeyGames

It was indeed! I REMEMBER that, at least for humans!

2:47 pm

pugmama763

but thats just "helping nature take its course . not the same in my mind at all...

2:47 pm

ShadowHyrst

hopefully we won't see clone warriors or the like

2:47 pm

MetFan

TABAD, PUG!!!

2:47 pm

MonkeyGames

Neither is a canary shaped like the number 7.

2:47 pm

autumn moon

thx for the advise MG. Vet wants it bandaged until tomorrow. It bled for 3 days. It's clean. I put her bootie on before we go outside.

2:48 pm

MetFan

That's why they're cloning - trying to build better warriors to win the world!!

2:48 pm

MonkeyGames

Great! Then there's little I can do beyond assure you that foot wounds do suck because they take so long to heal.

2:48 pm

autumn moon

Going back to the cloning thing - that would also mean they can clone all the vicious animals and people also.... is that a good thing?

Cloning extinct animals is also an issue--seems like a haywire island caused a movie sensation a few years ago with dinos...

2:49 pm

2:50 pm

MonkeyGames

You're right, Pug, and yet we evolved so we have to count as a Force of Nature. I like to think of us in terms of a slow meteor.

2:51 pm

pugmama763

more like a time released plague!

2:51 pm

MonkeyGames

Sure, the dinos thing and the pets thing... I just want my own heart if I need a transplant.

2:51 pm

aknitter

no wondeer i could not find them! i must google a definition ty ty ty

2:52 pm

MonkeyGames

True. Same kind of effect. Don't get me wrong, I wish I wasn't here to see it and I try to change it! But nonetheless it evolved and here it is.

2:52 pm

pugmama763

I think replacement organs is a great idea but creating living beings is just amoral & creepy!

2:52 pm

ShadowHyrst

the plague has continued, throughout a few bottlenecks where it's been determined that we decended from one woman in africa about 100,000 years ago...so we got lucky to survive at all...and now we get to expand ourselves with cloning

2:53 pm

MonkeyGames

Regardless of whether we agree on that, when they perfect the techniques thay can just grow the heart; don't have to make a whole person and btrain and all.

2:53 pm

aknitter

well just googled the definition! it is rather funny considering I am one and did not even know it LOL

2:53 pm

MonkeyGames

Which word, knitter?

2:53 pm

ShadowHyrst

there have been a couple science fiction stories regarding cloning organs, and it has moral issues as well--sort of the kind of who gets an organ, etc

2:53 pm

pugmama763

& wipe out every other species along the way! except viruses& bacteria they will outlive everything!

2:54 pm

MonkeyGames

For the record I am a science fiction writer.

2:54 pm

COOL!

2:54 pm

2:54 pm

MonkeyGames

Pug, I agree about the devastating effect of the human race. I was making a philosophical and pedantic point when we DO agree morally in many ways.

2:55 pm

ShadowHyrst

is it possible I have read your works MonkeyGames?

2:55 pm

pugmama763

but organ cloning isn't sci fi its been being worked on a long time already

2:55 pm

MonkeyGames

And not in some ways, but that just increases diversity, which I overwhelmingly indulge.

2:55 pm

MonkeyGames

They can do skin.

2:55 pm

pugmama763

yes monkey I know dear

2:56 pm

MonkeyGames

Sadly no, Shadow, because I am a little "off-genre" and my novels are a shred too short, it seems. But I'm hitting up the small presses. Happy to send the polished novel along though; it's well copyrighted and I don't think of sharing it in terms of losing a sale.

2:56 pm

autumn moon

I have a question.... if they clone a heart from you for you, would it not have the same problems that made you need a new heart to begin with? I mean, it's an exact dulicate of you.

2:56 pm

MonkeyGames

Actually though the skin is more of a culture...

2:57 pm

pugmama763

diversity is what makes the world go round

2:57 pm

autumn moon

*duplicate*

2:57 pm

MonkeyGames

Good point! It would depend on a) why I needed a new heart and b) how far they'd come in correcting probloems at a basic level.

2:57 pm

pugmama763

I would think with all the genetic manipulation they can do they might be able to fix what caused the trouble

2:58 pm

ShadowHyrst

I'm alwas looking for new writers---I've been limited in te past decade or so because so much SF went fantasy, so would love to see what you have sometimes if you could point me to them

3:05 pm

ShadowHyrst

U.S. Work specific areas and issues. And gosh, I started out in life wanting to teach history related stuff [first degree was Ancient Med Culture' so I could include all of the Med and various periods/cultures...eclectic background since then

3:07 pm

MonkeyGames

This is all most interesting. And I do know what you mean! Due to this issue or that, I never settled on one thing to study in time. Thus with a deep interest in neuroscience and archaeology and primatology, I am currently 39 years old with a toddler, and most of the way through a degree in scoial-law relkated social work in a second language. It all just goes another way somewhere....

3:12 pm

soozy

Fireworks :o)

3:12 pm

ShadowHyrst

MG--that is so often true. But just think of all the cool things you know, and how fun it is. We hold similar interests...archaeology, primatology, science fiction, Babble...way too cool a world.

3:12 pm

MonkeyGames

Woohoo!!!!

3:12 pm

ShadowHyrst

fireworks are too cool after a braintwister

3:13 pm

MonkeyGames

I tota;;y agree. I don't regret the things I didn't do-- a) it's my fault anyway and b) I can still learn far more about them that someone without a masters degree could haveknown 20 years ago, without great efforyt anyway.

3:14 pm

MonkeyGames

But also I can draw. That helps a lot, just having this form of meditation that comes naturally.
