long slippery slope of the govt eventually telling you everything you can and cant do
1:38 am
sprite
hm, just found out you cannot put me in the past and you cannot have more of me than there already is.

1:47 am
jillibus
that's why I remember them, sprite, lol!
1:47 am
dart001
unless you are dyslexic
1:47 am
dcseain
imperial measures are silly and confusing, so who can blame him.
1:47 am
GroovyKiwi
i got the crunchies, the flakes, the mallow puffs, the pinkies, the milk bottles and the goldeen syrup
1:47 am
nDanLia
easiet to remember from freezing (0/32) & boiling (100/212) c-F = (C * 9/5 [almost double] )+ 32 = f OR [f-32]*5/9=c
1:47 am
Just1Mar
parcel??? oh the parcel you promised me 4 months ago?
1:48 am
GroovyKiwi
has yours not arrived Just????
1:48 am
sprite
aw Kiwi :) But it is a marvellous package as it is, I am sure.
1:48 am
jillibus
I thought my grandson would reply in cm when I asked him how tall he was at age 25 -- he said six ft two
1:48 am
Just1Mar
it's all what you're used to dc.....grew up with imperial and was about 25-30 when they switched to metric!
1:48 am
Andree
the problem is so many receipes i have kept for years still have pints etc
1:49 am
Just1Mar
errr nooo kiwi.....had one arrived I'd have thanked you profusely!
1:49 am
GroovyKiwi
hrmmmmmm not good - digs into her box of receipts to take to the post office to have a big moan tomorrow
1:49 am
dcseain
i was educated fully in metric, and living in the States, i understand some bits of imperial, we use British here, not Imperial, i get, like gallons, but most is just baffling.
1:49 am
jillibus
there is a calculator I just saw in a catalogue which does all the recipe conversions
1:49 am
GroovyKiwi
i like did sent it late but it was sent last months payday
1:49 am
GroovyKiwi
so was sent about 5 weeks ago
1:50 am
Just1Mar
oh my really?
1:50 am
sprite
yup, for someone dyslexic it would be tough to remember, I agree. But for me it works wonders.
1:50 am
GroovyKiwi
we are educated in metric but most ppl still go for inches in height and pounds in birth weight lol
1:50 am
Just1Mar
strange that you were educated in metric in the states dc...a
1:50 am
flosey
interesting jilli, that would be a handy thing to have
1:51 am
sprite
sounds good, jilli, and very handy! I always have a tough time deciphering the recipes in babble chog.
1:51 am
Just1Mar
we were educated in the british system wherebye our gallon was a little more than yours
1:51 am
herinfernallady
this chog is going by so quickly
1:51 am
sprite
do you all already know Kiwi is going to make us a Babble Cookbook? Online?
1:51 am
nDanLia
i remember in late 60s all the govt hadouts to facilitate the "transition"....now 40 years later we have 2 & 3 liter sodas, & thats about it
1:51 am
sprite
poor lady, you should go take a little nap.
1:51 am
Just1Mar
all I know is last week we were paying $1.46 CDN for a litre of gas :(
1:52 am
dcseain
right, Imperial gallon 4L, ours is 3.89L, hence British, as it's pre-Imperial reform of a quart to be 1L instead of .987L
1:52 am
Just1Mar
is that true spritey? kiwi?
1:52 am
dart001
i was too just...the big plan was for the whole country to make the switch i think in the 80's...but then they figured how much it would cost to retool everything and stuck with the old system
1:52 am
GroovyKiwi
we had a price decrease last week for gas now down to $1.95 a litre
1:52 am
jillibus
And I have a crusade about the pronunciation of kilometres -- it's a measurement so should be KILometres like CENTimetres, not kilOMetres like the measuring devices, barOMeters, thermOMeters.
1:52 am
sprite
yes 1Mar, our Kiwi :)
1:52 am
GroovyKiwi
yes just but i need recipes - havent got any yet

I am so proud of him! Most kids speak the languages mixed until they're 7 or so. Walter separates them.Friday, his first day of school, he said, "Can I go over there?" (where the toys were). I said he needed to ask the teacher. He went straight over and said, "Mag ik daar naartoe?"
2:49 am
loredana
oh clever Walter
2:49 am

Walter is a smart kid. He will be good at both languages.

Walter is being raised completely bilingual. We speak English at home, and he watches kids' shows in Dutch, goes to school in Dutch, went to daycare in Dutch, and has friends from both language groups.

loredana

3:55 am
Haz1558
I'm just reading back in the chat log and noticed that you had asked about her again.
3:55 am
loredana
I must say if you dont mind at all its lovely to see so many original Babblers here at once
3:56 am
Haz1558
Original babblers sounds so much better than 'old-timers'

loredana

Big Hugs for FM Good Morning
3:59 am
FMitch
LOL, I won't point out that you are a tad older than me tho Haz dear.
4:00 am
Haz1558
A tad. Just a tad. And with the plastic surgery, nobody would realise it.
4:00 am
FMitch
Hello Andree, lore and hydra and Lori who is under the grid somewhere
4:00 am
LoriP
G'd morning FM, shall I launch a preemptive strike and what you with a cushion?
4:00 am
FMitch
Go for it if you feel brave enough *grin*
4:01 am
Haz1558
Don't do it while she's on her guard.
4:01 am
LoriP
Hate ta' say it out loud lore, but I agree that it isn't a race, and I like to work for the words.
4:02 am
Andree
well i am never in the race lore, just plod at my own pace and chat sometimes
4:02 am
Haz1558
It's just as well it's not a race - I've never won a race in my life.
4:02 am
Haz1558
Except to the PB.....
4:02 am
LoriP
That said, babbles is a life sentence without parole. ***saunters over to FM and wallops her with a feather pillow***
4:02 am
Haz1558
I blame Lori for inciting that ra4 word. Entrapment.
4:03 am
FMitch
I think you have George stashed in there and thats why you have been happy to spend so much time in it!
4:03 am
FMitch
Hey!! I wasn't ready!
4:04 am
Haz1558
It's a source of deep shame to me that I have been so careless recently. I blame everyone else.
4:04 am
LoriP
Haz fell for it. heh heh heh
4:06 am
FMitch
BTW nice grid today
4:06 am

4:10 am
Haz1558
Back shortly. I would say 'behave' but it's about as redundant as most apostrophes I see these days. Worst offender recently 'Watche's'
4:10 am
LoriP

8:58 am
Hugabugs
Well, still no word on the results for the colonoscopy, but they called me in for the results of the ct scan
8:58 am
Hugabugs
apparently, there's something showing on the adrenal glands, so I have to go for more tests
8:58 am
flosey

8:58 am
Hugabugs
Hi flosey
8:59 am

8:59 am
flosey
hope all goes well hugs
8:59 am
VolleymomDee

8:59 am
Hugabugs

9:02 am
Pinikula
Hope your other results and upcoming tests come out well and that whatever may be out of order is soon back to normal.
9:02 am
Hugabugs
I'm kinda afraid to read up on it, the first few hits I got in Google were showing tumors... so I decided not to continue looking
9:03 am
VolleymomDee
my doc gets mad at me if I check internet; think you are smart to wait; no reason to scare yourself
9:03 am
Hugabugs
on another note, good news... I finally started getting my unemployment cheques. It only took them 2.5 months
9:03 am
flosey
thoughts and prayers with you hugs

thank you all for your well wishes
9:04 am
BzznBea
Dee, where are you on the outer banks?
9:05 am
VolleymomDee
so very glad for the dollars; so stupid you had to wait that long; glad it is resolved; I'm sure that helps
9:05 am
VolleymomDee
Kill Devil Hills in a house we rented for a week
9:05 am
VolleymomDee
it is one of my favorite places in the world
9:05 am
BzznBea
The outer banks are my favorite place in the world.
9:06 am
Hugabugs
it sure does... I finally had my first full nite's sleep on Friday... I haven't been able to sleep for longer than 4 hrs at a time, usually 2 hr stints
9:06 am
VolleymomDee

9:06 am
VolleymomDee
glad that hurdle is past
9:06 am
BzznBea
My great ambition in life it to live on the OBs and be a beachcomber.
9:07 am
flosey
Bea, is that you with the beautiful red hair?
9:07 am
VolleymomDee
I keep asking hubby if he would move here - told him yesterday he could become a pool "boy" or a cabana boy HAHA
9:07 am
BzznBea
No. That is my fav author, Janet Evanovich.
9:08 am
BzznBea
Where do you live now, Dee?
9:08 am
VolleymomDee
oh, wow bea... just finished her Fear Fourteen book; normally we live in Indiana
9:08 am
flosey
oh, you didn't mention authors so wondered
9:09 am
BzznBea
Still waiting to get my hands on that one. Long wait from the public library.
9:10 am
VolleymomDee
I rationalized & bought it at bookstore before we left on vacation
9:12 am
BzznBea
I need to put that in my profile don't I, flosey?
9:12 am
flosey
sounds like mystery?
9:13 am
BzznBea
Yes, she is considered a mystery writer. However, they are hysterical from beginning to end.
9:14 am
flosey
must look for her, thanks
9:14 am
VolleymomDee
grandma masur and lulu are 2 of the funniest characters
9:15 am
BzznBea
Start with One for the Money. All of her books are numbered.
9:15 am
BzznBea
I think her ralationships with Joe and Ranger a a scream.
9:16 am
VolleymomDee
except for about 12 or so books.. some Christmas books; a few about a lady who used to work on cars with her dad...
9:16 am
VolleymomDee
me too bea
9:16 am
Gail
I discovered a new favorite author. Louise Penny. She writes a series that takes place in Canada. They are funny, poetic, scary and very mysterious. I absolutely love her books. Her website is great, too.
9:17 am
BzznBea
She has the "between the numbers" books that are centered around some holiday.
9:17 am
VolleymomDee
I think I'll have to check her out
9:18 am
BzznBea
Thanks, Gail. I'm always looking for new mystery series.
9:18 am
VolleymomDee
reading her books makes me happy; I laugh so much at her descriptions - especially of grandma's antics and Lulu's clothes...
9:18 am
Gail
Her detective is wonderul, lots of intrigue and layers to her plots. The village they take place in is fabulous. You want to go live there, except for all the murders, of course.
9:18 am
flosey
will look for Penny also, especially anything referring to Canadian locations
9:19 am
BzznBea
Must go get furkids from the kennel. They have been there all weekend, poor things.

9:44 am
Haz1558
Good morning/afternoon all.
9:45 am
flosey
morning Haz
9:45 am
pugmama763
hi haz
9:45 am
Haz1558
Hello there!
9:47 am
VolleymomDee
hi haz
9:47 am
Haz1558
Hello Volley - is this not unusually late for you?
9:49 am
VolleymomDee
actually this would be a "normal" time for most folks lol... on vacation; hubby is taking a walk; daughter is working out; and I am working on my last 72 words with my great coffee (it's 10:48 am)
9:50 am
Haz1558
That explains it - you're usually on around flip time (I read the archives, I like my bed too much to be around at that time)
9:51 am
VolleymomDee
lol... I play when I can't get comfortable enough to sleep have RA and fibromyalgia, so try not to disrupt hubby's sleep; babble is my diversion and a real blessing
9:52 am
Haz1558
It's good to have a diversion, in that case. I think I'd find flip a bit frantic with all the declarations.
9:53 am
VolleymomDee
you can ignore them if you don't want to watch... I am not a veteran babbler yet, so often helps me :~)
9:53 am
VolleymomDee
interesting how different times of the day determine how games are played and what is shared in chat... kinda cool actually
9:54 am
flosey
agree Haz, I come on at flip, then pretty much ignore chat for first hour
9:54 am
Haz1558
We were just talking this morning about 'original babblers' and how it sounded better than 'old timers'. Babble veterans makes them sound even better.
9:54 am
VolleymomDee
hope someday I can do like you 2
9:54 am
VolleymomDee
you vets are really neat folks!
9:55 am
Haz1558
Some people enjoy it - it's nice to have the option to ignore chat if necessary.
9:55 am
SamanthaJoy
Halfway!
9:55 am
VolleymomDee
agreed
9:55 am
Haz1558
But you're right, the chat log does ebb and flow and take on different characteristics depending on who is around and what the grid is like.
9:55 am
SamanthaJoy
(Speaking of ignoring chat, I have been. Hello, all)
9:56 am
FMitch
Afternoon all.
9:56 am
flosey
seems so silly to be using morewords right away just to call out the big words
9:56 am
VolleymomDee
brb potty break for me
9:56 am
Haz1558
Hello Samantha - we're not THAT offended that you've been ignoring us.
9:56 am
Haz1558
Good afternoon FMitch.
9:56 am
FMitch
I agree flosey.
Hello Haz:)
9:57 am
SamanthaJoy
If I want recriminations, I can look into the eyes of my dogs. I haven't fed them yet.
9:57 am
Haz1558
flosey - I think one player has completely misunderstood the whole calling process.
9:57 am
Haz1558
And you're content to talk to us while your dogs starve, Samantha?
9:57 am
FMitch
awe lol Sam
9:57 am
flosey
lol - then much later asking for clues for 4 and 5 letter words
9:57 am
pugmama763
hows that haz?
9:58 am
SamanthaJoy
Absolutely. I'm aiming them towards that stylish Twiggy look. Maybe one day we can make it to "gaunt"
9:58 am
joshuavorbis
hi FMitch - what's the challenge for today?
9:58 am
sandyloo
Haz, what determines a veteran babbler?
9:58 am
FMitch
Hi josh .. hmm let me think
9:59 am
FMitch
OK I made it to 243 w/o the list
9:59 am
FMitch
So see you you can do better w/o asking for clues
9:59 am
Haz1558
Hello pugmama! Well, as I understand it, flip time was traditionally where people declared the larger words as they find them themselves. These days the numbers of letters in a word found worthy of declaration are much shorter and it has been known for a word to be declared after it has been found through Lickety. (Am I being pernickety?)
10:00 am
FMitch
Sandy - 'oldies' that have babbled for more yers than we care to admit :)
10:00 am
Haz1558
sandy - I have no idea what constitutes a veteran babbler. More than 2 years?
10:00 am
flosey
I wouldln't say you were Haz
10:00 am
pugmama763
oh I see. lots of questionable goings on a flip lately
10:00 am
joshuavorbis
well, i'm already at 204 so we'll see if i can hack that
10:00 am
EvaNadine
afternoon, babblers!
10:00 am
pugmama763
like people cluing after only a 1/2 hour etc
10:01 am
FMitch
Go josh :)
Afternoon EvaN
10:01 am
Haz1558
Just think. If I were a poet, I'd be on my way to a rhyme with Lickety and pernickety. 'Ode to babble'
10:01 am
flosey
they're usually asked not to clue for first hour
10:01 am
Haz1558
Yes, pug. And I saw you getting hot under the collar a few evenings ago - hmmmmm???????????
10:01 am
pugmama763
I've pretty much given up on even looking at the chog at flip
10:02 am
movieman
Good afternoon everybody!!!!!!

hello all
10:03 am
Haz1558
For one moment I was reading 'winds me' as in the being hit in the solar plexus - I take it it's winds as in the clock?
10:03 am
Haz1558
Hello peri.

*grins at pug* was waiting for the penny to drop
10:05 am

maybe we should have a code for words we find ourselves at the flip

10:10 am

Volley - the etiquette thing raises hackles on both sides.
10:10 am

good morning, all.

Haz1558
The 'veteran' babblers kind of know what the traditions are, newer babblers sometimes accept them ,sometimes don't and it can get fraught. Mostly it all works out.
10:10 am
sandyloo
hi skoo
10:10 am
VolleymomDee
you are right haz; have seen sarcastic and hurtful comments fly (from both sides) many times
10:11 am
pugmama763
well volley in the case we were discussing its not so much etiquette as why bother to play if you make so little effort to find the words yourself?
10:11 am

good morning Skooj5:)

Hi skoo and mkg

SamanthaJoy
People play for different reasons.
10:12 am
jean1953
hi mkg:) soz missed you
10:12 am
Haz1558
It's a difficult one (traditions) as many who have been around from the start like the security of knowing what is accepted and what is not. Others don't see the point of making life slightly more difficult for themselves.
10:12 am
VolleymomDee
good point; may be us "newbies" who aren't great players yet... you make great points
10:12 am
sandyloo
The true veterans are very good

Atlases and dictionaries and encyclopaedias are great aids for this game!

10:16 am

Yes josh - go to rankings and do a control F

Hello Vi!

What mayhem today?
10:30 am
Haz1558
I was appalled this morning in Marks and Spencer. A sign at the checkout proclaiming 10 item's or less. I protested.
10:31 am
Vicuna
To whom? And what was the response?
10:31 am
sandyloo
haz , we have that here all the time
10:31 am
dcseain
oh, how painful, haz!
10:31 am
FMitch
Gasp, What s the world coming to, just shows how down market M&S have become
10:31 am
Haz1558
I pointed it out to the sales assistant. She agreed that it was poor English, then asked if I was an English teacher.
10:32 am
Vicuna
It isn't poor; it's wrong!
10:32 am
Haz1558
Could I hire myself out as proof-reader to the retail sector?
10:32 am
EspritdJean
I think the apostrophe is the most misused punctuation mark
10:32 am
FMitch
I wonder if it is therapy?
10:32 am
dcseain
heaven knows the retail sector needs proofreading!
10:32 am
Vicuna
That would be great, Haz, but unfortunately I think they've concluded that they don't need proof-readers.
10:32 am
EspritdJean
another one is "buses" and "busses" for mistakes
10:33 am
Haz1558
It seems that these days, if in doubt, throw in an apostrophe. If I collapse with heart failure, I'm holding signwriters responsible.
10:33 am
joshuavorbis
the one that makes me twitch is when people type "loose" when they mean "lose"
10:33 am
Haz1558
If I survive.
10:33 am

i would vote for the comma - if you don't know what to do throw in a comma
10:33 am

testify, joshua!
10:33 am

am i missing something? earlier said 2 x ac8. only have one, but all 8's done
10:33 am

Or 'I could of....' as in 'I could of danced all night' Arrgh!
10:34 am
Haz1558
Just one ac8, you're right, Chris.
10:34 am
Vicuna
Stop, stop, I beg you all!
10:34 am
FMitch
then you are OK Chris
10:34 am

the mispronounciation of mischievous as mischEEvious makes me nuts

How about "there" for "their" ?
10:34 am

10:35 am

What's it worth, Vicuna? You realise I took a risk in quoting a song?

I had a greengrocer that sold carrot's swede's and cabbage's - I told him he could save himself three felt pens a year if only he'd drop the apostrophes

True, Haz. That was very daring of you. But I could not, in fact, have danced all night, so you're safe.

how about Babblers Against Bad Spelling (BABS)
10:37 am

I hate that americans pronounce laboratory as labratory, even though they spell it the same way as us
10:37 am
sandyloo
or color instead of colour
10:37 am
Haz1558
And can I also point out that 'Me and Him are going to the shops' is WRONG. And I hate that TV children's TV announcers do it all the time.
10:38 am
EspritdJean
ok, now you're just getting nitpicky; those are not errors, just differences
10:38 am
Vicuna
Sherbert is a legitimate alternate spelling/pronounciation, SeanS.
10:38 am
Deeha
We have a sign in our local supermarket 'free from foods' I know what they are getting at but I sometimes ask if they are for people on diets!!
10:39 am

" She and I got married a few years ago "... ack!

really, Vi? I hadn't heard that..

Stop all this joviality, I need to pack the bag and go to bed

what's wrong with that one ruru?

I hate it when announcers run one word into another, I recently heard histori Coxford grate grate!!
10:39 am
Vicuna
What's wrong with getting amrried?
10:40 am
Vicuna
*married?
10:40 am
SeanS
wikipedia says that "sherbert" is a common misspelling of sherbet...
10:40 am
dcseain
how bafflling, deeha. perhaps they mean free-form foods?
10:40 am
FMitch
Ah well that is a WHOLE new subject!
10:40 am
Haz1558
It's grammatically correct (she and I) but it might be less clumsy if you just say 'We got married...'
10:40 am
sandyloo
Is Webster a real dictionary - I thought Oxford was the way to go
10:40 am
SeanS
i suppose it doesn't matter that much
10:40 am
Deeha
no, I think 'free from additives'
10:40 am

You and ruru got married? I can't keep up!
10:40 am
rururocks
Just misuse of I instead of me drives mrs ru nutso
10:41 am
sandyloo
However I must say we have a huge Webster's Dictionary that is very good
10:41 am
dcseain
Webster's was the standard here for centuries. I do concur that the OED is preferred, though.
10:41 am
rururocks
or vice versa
10:41 am
VolleymomDee
actually should not use "got" married, but should say, "She and I married"
10:41 am
dcseain
i'm with her, ruru, it's rampant. sigh
10:41 am
EspritdJean
no volleymom you're wrong
10:41 am
Vicuna
Well, so wikipedia vs Random House Webster's... The point is that many of the language "rules' are merely matters of opinion and personal peeve. This has been the case since the very first English grammars in the late 16th century.
10:41 am
dcseain
got married is common in this region of the country.
10:42 am
VolleymomDee
btw I have ac 9 and a tr 9... anyone have the last 9
10:42 am

very true, Vi... the rules are always changing anyway

10:48 am
sandyloo
or even a large dam
10:48 am
dcseain
they have cleared about 4m of trees either side of it, are driving piles to reinforce the stream bank, and adding rocks and old phone poles to help keep it on course. The Snakeden Branch of The Glad shall not flow naturally again for generations.

11:43 am
72 Temple Owl
a compound? or a verb made noun?
11:43 am

verb made noun
11:43 am
dcseain
the 11 is a noun
11:43 am
72 Temple Owl

72 Temple Owl
i or u?
11:44 am
72 Temple Owl
aHA!
11:45 am
hurshy
by the way, does anyone else find it really really amusing that there are now commercials for high fructose corn syrup?
11:46 am
dcseain
are there really? i don't have TV, so i miss these things.
11:46 am
72 Temple Owl
it's a scream..esp when she says "made from corn?"
11:46 am
dcseain
i'll have to search youtube LOL
11:47 am
Judi
I saw that commercial, Hursh! I just blinked at it and said, "huh??"
11:47 am
72 Temple Owl
i figure i am already old enought ot be done in byt thae crap they secretly allowed me to ingest
11:47 am
hurshy
i don't really understand it, because i don't think there are a lot of people out there rejecting high fructose corn syrup more than other kinds of sugars, so what is the point? i mean, you need to have a REALLY good point to overcome the sheer inherent silliness of having a commercial for high fructose corn syrup.
11:48 am
dcseain
i avoid high fructose corn syrup as much as is reasonable to do so.
11:48 am
dcseain
so do a lot of people whom i know.
11:48 am
72 Temple Owl
they have had VERY bad press. especially from Dr. Oz. gee it was on oprah, must be so ;)
11:48 am
hurshy
but is that part and parcel of avoiding overly sugary stuff in general? or is it that in particular?
11:48 am
hurshy
ohhh, on oprah - well i didn't know about the oprah thingy.
11:49 am
72 Temple Owl
in particular. it's being put into a lot of reduced fat stuff to boost taste.
11:49 am
Judi
Yes, I avoid it too. I've read that it is particularly bad - especially for children. Very concentrated sweetener. Making us all fatter.
11:49 am
72 Temple Owl
it's the new sugar of choice. cheaper
11:49 am
hurshy
ah, luckily i don't eat a lot of reduced fat stuff.
11:50 am
72 Temple Owl
i like reduced fat PB of course, it's sweet.
11:50 am
hurshy
i guess HFCS is the new trans fat
11:50 am
hurshy
i mean in terms of "thing to avoid"
11:50 am
72 Temple Owl
must go have fun kids!
11:51 am
dcseain
i avoid the high-fructose stuff by and large in particular. i've no real issue with fructose, nor sucrose.
11:51 am
72 Temple Owl
i mean"must go> Have fun, kids! LOL
11:51 am
dcseain
hasta, hurshy :)
11:51 am
hurshy
i not go, i ttfn to the owl
11:51 am
dcseain
oh, wait, hast, TO, Hursh is still around, no?
11:51 am
dcseain
i'm confused, as usual. :)
11:52 am
72 Temple Owl
*poof*
11:52 am
hurshy
the thing is, as soon as you SEE a commercial for HFCS, you're like, suspicious, so i think it's counterproductive. like, whenever i see a news show saying they are "unbiased" or "fair and balanced" - if you have to say it, you probably aren't!
11:53 am
dcseain
i agree, hurshy
11:53 am
KnightTime
so is this a commercial for a brand of HFCS?
11:53 am
hurshy
no, not a brand, just HFCS in general.
11:53 am
hurshy
like cotton commercials, but eerier.
11:54 am
dcseain
or pork, egg, cheese, and beef ads.
11:54 am
dcseain
milk, how could i forget the milk!
11:55 am
hurshy
so meat and dairy are big into it... how come i never see asparagus ads?
11:55 am
KnightTime
is this to get the public to accept the idea, I don't get the point of the commercial if it isn't a brand a consumer can buy?
11:55 am
dcseain
aspargus is rather seasonal, no?
11:56 am
hurshy
it's to get the public to accept the idea
11:56 am
dcseain
we can buy HFCS. The point is to convince people like me that it is a safe food that does not cause undue weight gain when consumed in reasonale amounts, i'm betting.
11:56 am
hurshy
they SAY "it's fine in moderation" but they MEAN don't worry your little head about HFCS!
11:57 am
KnightTime
ok, it is near ubiquitous in sweet junk food, so we accept it by purchaisng the products
11:57 am
dcseain
thing is, it's on such a high % of processed foods. Who needs to eat all that sugar.
11:57 am
dcseain
it shows up in pasta sauces, frozen dinners, many places you might not expect.
11:58 am
hurshy
animaniacs had a song about the crazy stuff in food :)
11:58 am

11:59 am

12:00 pm

12:14 pm

oh, never read any of her books, what type of books does she write
12:14 pm
dcseain
mostly sci-fi and fantasy, peri, much speculative
12:15 pm
periwinkle
then I would not like her, not crazy about those types of books
12:15 pm
sprite
interesting, seain, I of course know her old stuff and I love it, but haven't read any of her recent things. Will remember the name in your text.
12:15 pm
dcseain
her Four Ways to Forgiveness is a quartet of morality tales set in her unirverse, really very much worth the read.
