jillibus

night hugs

1:28 am

sprite

hi jilli *hug*
lol, I had the stupidest last night in the profile, just saw it in time: the one that 'springs' to mind, in stead of jumps... Dutch for jump is spring, grin.

1:28 am

jillibus

things do spring to mind!

1:29 am

sprite

do they? Really? Ok! (feels less stupid now)

1:29 am

nDanLia

I'd use springs to mind way before jumps to mind

1:30 am

nDanLia

[would say jumps out..., but still less oftem]

1:30 am

sprite

lol... so I should change it back, even? Thanks, both of you, I keep learning thanks to you.

1:30 am

jillibus

sprite, you are FAR from stupid, stupid!

1:30 am

sandyloo

at the moment nothing is springing or jumping to my mind

1:30 am

nDanLia

1:40 am

sprite

am loving the company this morning :)
Anyone who wants something from the PB? Coffee, tea, fresh fruit juice... Pancakes, chicken legs, toast?

1:41 am

sprite

how silly of me, nDan. My kids would tell you I am a living jukebox, hit a button and I start singing. Will take better care of what I post next time :)

1:45 am

sandyloo

Sprite, that is the same here - mention a word and I will sing a song about it- my kids try to kill me all the time!!

1:45 am

nDanLia

there was an interesting book combining linguistics & songs giving women the ability to survive a future mini ice-age [also ahd some other interesting themes], will have to remember it....

thanks nDan, have written them down!

1:54 am

nDanLia

a group of women in the book survive in a luddite-style society, but are really hoodwinking the men & biding their time for the coming changes... read it about 14 years ago

1:55 am

2:02 am

sandyloo

We have all AA Milne books - they were a part of growing up for us

2:02 am

flosey

no, just checking the addition

2:03 am

jillibus

And I read Hiawatha over and over too, sandy

2:05 am

2:05 am

sandyloo

My mother who was brought up on a sheep station and did not go to school until she was 10 years old, read all the classics to us

2:06 am

night diem

2:07 am

sandyloo

She is amazing and comes from a family of eight (not catholics) who have all done very well in life. I feel it is their strong family bond that has helped them along the way

2:07 am

flosey

wtg Dan

2:07 am

sprite

wtg nDan! Congrats!

2:08 am

sandyloo

They were raised without phone, electricity or cars, it was too remote where they lived

2:09 am

sprite

not easy, but lots of time for eachother, I think, sandy. And for the important things in life.

2:09 am

nDanLia

ty

2:12 am

nDanLia

often think about the things we've lost in modern life, yes we have many things better, but not all [mom only went to about equiv of 5th grade & went shoeless to school, and though houses/barns had lights, still outhouse in the '70s at granny's]

2:14 am

sandyloo

My favourite improvement is dishwashers and washing machines

2:14 am

sprite

I agree. Many things are really better, and much easier now, but other things have gone lost. Life is fast nowadays, and it isn't easy to create some peace and quiet in family life. We try, though.

2:14 am

sandyloo

that's not correct english i realise

2:14 am

sprite

but you still make yourself very clear, sandy :) And I agree.

2:15 am

sprite

washing machines even more important than dishwashing.

2:16 am

sandyloo

We have a lovely dam at the back of our property and we often have luncheons down there with friends and family and I think it is such a serene place

2:16 am

sprite

I still read with my kids every morning, we read english books now, and we will sit on the couch, with me in the middle. It is fun, cosy and a great form of sharing. And old fashioned and ridiculous, as I was told recently... I think I like being oldfashioned and ridiculous then ;)

2:16 am

sandyloo

Fresh air and countryside

2:16 am

sprite

lovely, sandy. Sounds so pleasant.

2:17 am

sandyloo

Sprite - whoever said "ridiculous" must be missing half their life

2:18 am

nDanLia

2nd that

2:18 am

sprite

yup, I guess so, sandy. Was the same one who claims our kids are scared of us, so we don't really value her opinion much :)

2:18 am

flosey

I'm off to bed, goodnight all, be back in the morning

2:19 am

sandyloo

It is very obvious to me that those people must be sad people

2:19 am

nDanLia

nite flosey

2:19 am

sprite

as long as the kids and I all love it, I think it is the best we can do. Also evenings without television, with games or chat or just lots of cuddles. Winter evenings without electric light, just candles. It is so good, at least we think so.

2:19 am

sandyloo

nite flos

2:19 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey, I hope you will sleep easy and restful.

2:20 am

flosey

thank you sprite, you are so sweet

2:20 am

sandyloo

All this gets me thinking, I must collect our eggs, feed the chooks, horse and cow

2:20 am

sprite

*hugs flosey*

2:20 am

sprite

you are living close to nature as it is, sandy! Much more than we do, in Holland.

2:20 am

flosey

hugs back

2:21 am

sandyloo

Sprite, we were not allowed tv during the week and used to play games etc. it was great!

2:21 am

sandyloo

Where we live is only 17mins from the CBD but it is like being in the middle of the country

2:22 am

sandyloo

bbl

2:22 am

sprite

I bet, sandy! It is so nice to really spend some time together, being in contact. Watching TV etc is fun, but it is rather solitary. At least, that is how I feel.

2:22 am

sprite

bfn, sandy

2:23 am

nDanLia

tc

2:25 am

sprite

I want to buy an i.

2:26 am

nDanLia

2:26 am

4:08 am

elder

Carleekat.. i can see the fun in that.

4:08 am

sprite

I think it is great you do it, carlee. Wish my kids had such scouting leaders here.

4:08 am

carleekat

well..THERE u go elder...

4:09 am

carleekat

told u sprite..ship em over

4:09 am

sprite

already did, carlee :D

4:11 am

carleekat

we just did the canoe camp this weekend past... 33 girls... 15 canoes... set up scavenger hunts on the river...taught them how tippy a canoe is..but also how hard to dump out of one... they learned to paddle..and steer....did a 2 hour trip down the river at the end....caught up with all the canoes...rafted..and ate our lunch along the river....was wonderful

4:11 am

LoriP

Okay, seriously sprite. Are there really 7 words from that bottom e? I don't not believe ya'.

4:12 am

sprite

seriously, Lori. Biggies even.

4:12 am

carleekat

I wouldn't know lori... I have yet to look at the grid...

4:12 am

sprite

wonderful, carlee.

4:12 am

sprite

6 biggies from that e.

4:13 am

LoriP

Ahh, biggies. That's different then. I'll look again. I guess. Maybe. I prob'ally should.

4:13 am

elder

LorIP think going up.. many words .

4:13 am

4:13 am

LoriP

Ack!!!!!!!!!! les duh.

4:13 am

mamabook3

4:13 am

carleekat

think babble... and otis

4:14 am

Haz1558

And a big round of applause for our DENSA president - LORI!

4:14 am

sprite

and don't forget some words can be compounds.

4:14 am

mamabook3

another idea.. post office or fedex... they would be getting shipments loaded and ready to go about that hour

4:14 am

sprite

good one, mamabook!

4:14 am

carleekat

ooh... good one mama

4:14 am

elder

LoriP .. good to see Densa is kicking in again:)

4:14 am

LoriP

BR's clue was much too subtle for me. He needs to dymb it down a bit next time.

4:15 am

sprite

I am afraid BabbleRabble does not qualify at all for DENSA

4:15 am

Haz1558

I think this is a very balanced grid. Words for rising, words for spinning and a word for staying still.

4:17 am

elder

:)

4:18 am

LoriP

Ahh, there are 7 words from that e. Who knew? Babble's a stoopid game anyways....

G'd bichon. I kust looked at my profile, and November is my 2 year anniversary!

6:00 am

8:59 am

shoot - dilemma here - I can go to the list now, and catch and pass asg... or keep plodding along listless and then have to listen to her crow... what to do, what to do

9:00 am

Anniebrook

quite a dilemma, no help here

9:00 am

AsGreen

how much time do you have today? I have to leave in 15 mins

9:01 am

kje

it is a lazy day for me asg... should run some errands, but feel like being lazy after the last 28 days of having to work

9:01 am

kje

but.... that will NOT keep you from gloating, now will it? : )

9:02 am

AsGreen

It's hard to gloat when I'm using the list...

9:02 am

kje

favorite word so far - gi5

9:02 am

kje

doubtful asg....

9:02 am

AsGreen

don't have it yet - lol

9:03 am

AsGreen

hard, but doable - lol

9:03 am

kje

gi5 - kinda like a dohicky

9:03 am

kje

or a whatchamacallit

9:03 am

kje

or a thongamajig

9:04 am

AsGreen

got the clue, not the word

9:04 am

kje

(trying to think of others)

9:04 am

kje

thingamajig - not thongamajig

9:04 am

Pinikula

I got it!!!!

9:04 am

That would be the toe separator on the flip-flop, Kje.

9:06 am

You as well, Judi?

9:15 am

Judi

No. I'm staying. Babble butt be damned.

9:15 am

Haz1558

That's what we like to hear - you've built up a good tolerance level.

9:17 am

Judi

Calussed buttocks. Another by-product of our addiction.

9:17 am

jean1953

good afternoon everybody:)

9:18 am

Haz1558

If only Lori were here to say Hi Jean!

9:18 am

jean1953

lol she will be gutted Haz lol

9:18 am

Haz1558

I've done it for her just so you don't feel neglected.

9:19 am

jean1953

thank you Haz that is most kind:)

9:19 am

pabtrek

hi jean

9:19 am

Haz1558

How are you these days? Still busy at work?

9:20 am

jean1953

Im fine thank you Haz yes busy at work and still cannot play babble at work anymore :(

9:20 am

Haz1558

Such a shame. So you have to make the most of what time you have at home.

9:21 am

jean1953

I know the housework gets neglected lol

9:22 am

Anniebrook

speaking of housework, I must be on my way, bye, dear babblers

9:22 am

jean1953

bye Anniebrook:)

9:23 am

Haz1558

Look at that - Annie's guilty conscience setting in. See you later Annie!

9:25 am

pabtrek

bye Annie

9:27 am

jean1953

sorry got distracted by the dogs who are not well at the moment Haz, how are you these days meant to ask just now,

9:28 am

Haz1558

I'm fine, just as usual. Are the dogs being a worry?

9:28 am

Judi

BBIAM. UPS man here. *growwwllll*

9:28 am

jean1953

Well I will be better when they have seen the vet, there is kennel cough going around and I think mine have it

9:29 am

Haz1558

It's annoying when that happens. Apparently the vaccine isn't very easy to administer (up the nose!) and it's not 100%.

9:30 am

jean1953

oh no the beagle willl hate that:( I cannot get an appointment till the morning, it has come on so quickly

9:30 am

BzznBea

You can give them cough syrup for humans. Although I'm not sure of the dosage.

9:31 am

Judi

Yuck. Up the nose vaccine. I thought they gave a shot for kennel cough.

9:31 am

Haz1558

If they already have it, I'm not sure that there's a great deal to be done other than symptomatic relief - the vaccine is usually given pre-boarding kennels as a preventative.

9:31 am

jean1953

can you, I never thought of that Bzzn might help them

9:31 am

jean1953

9:32 am

Judi

Jean! You maniac. Stop that!

9:32 am

Judi

*phone* damn!

9:32 am

jean1953

lmao I dont know what button I hit then lol

9:32 am

Haz1558

They maybe have an injection in the States - over here it's an up the nose thing. Spangle is the most patient dog and she took it without too much difficulty but other dogs protest, understandably.

9:33 am

BzznBea

We gave our foster dogs cough syrup when they came in with it, Call your vet and ask. May help until they can get to theie appointment.

9:34 am

Haz1558

But don't wait until after midnight. We had a man ringing last night at 12/30 concerned that his parakeet had bled a bit.

9:34 am

Ms. Ditzian

hey wats up

9:34 am

Haz1558

The previous call had been the Old Folks Home, concerned about a wood pigeon with a broken wing. It was a bird themed evening.

9:35 am

crosshair

crossys back;)

9:35 am

Uneaixoise

aw, haz . . . .

9:35 am

jean1953

Oh no what a nightmare Haz, the joys of being a vet, dont worry I will give them a call now I think, bb in a mo

9:35 am

crosshair

you a vet haz?

9:36 am

Haz1558

Apparently all the old people were beside themselves with worry. It had to be put to sleep, but they were probably happy that it wasn't suffering any more.

9:36 am

Haz1558

No, crossy, I'm married to one - specialises in dairy practice. We have long discussions about calvings and mastitis.

9:37 am

crosshair

you think you get weird house calls? lol ive had tourists call me from thier condos
at 2 am wanting me to open up a entire resort office just to deliver them a corkscrew!

9:37 am

Haz1558

His practice is mixed, so when I answer the emergency phone at night it could be a dog or a sheep or cattle, you just never know.

9:37 am

BzznBea

Bet that's interesting dinner conversation...=)

9:38 am

crosshair

lol reminds me of those james herriot novels that i love! cows and mastitis:)

9:38 am

Haz1558

Well, not so much conversation as polite attention!

9:38 am

Haz1558

Anything that causes the milk yield to drop is a problem to be sorted out.

9:39 am

crosshair

prolaped uteris,slipped calf beds lol

9:39 am

crosshair

darn typos..dont even bother to try and fix them any more.curse my fat fingers!

9:40 am

Haz1558

Yes, calf bed out, or lamb bed out - they rarely use the medical terms around here.

9:40 am

crosshair

you read herriot haz?

9:40 am

jean1953

Thank you Bzzn have just spoken to the surgery and apparently I am ok to give them a teaspoon of benilyn so am off out to buy some will help till we get o the vets tommorow

9:40 am

crosshair

so funny

9:41 am

BzznBea

Glad to help.

9:41 am

Haz1558

I did, cross. It's very funny although things have moved on a lot in the technical side. The characters still remain.

9:41 am

crosshair

whats wrong with the dogs jean?

9:41 am

jean1953

Just popping out of grid for half n hour to purchase some benilyn, Happy Babbling one and all see you in a while

9:42 am

BzznBea

They have kennel cough, cross.

9:42 am

crosshair

ahh yes...so common

9:42 am

Haz1558

See you jean.

9:42 am

jean1953

I think they have kennel cough crosshair

9:42 am

crosshair

you hate to board yer dogs here for fear of that

9:42 am

jean1953

right gone:)

9:43 am

Haz1558

It's not life-threatening, just annoying to listen to.

9:44 am

crosshair

thats one good thing bout cats.if you have to,you can set them up for up to a week on thier own

9:44 am

Haz1558

Yes, just make sure they know how to operate the vacuum.

9:45 am

crosshair

our one cat is quite neat,the butterscotch tabby things it fun to fl;ing the litter as far as possible

9:46 am

Haz1558

Cats are strange.

9:47 am

crosshair

i threaten to the wife that ill just smear a half jar of jam in each of thier coats..will keep them busy for 15 hours or so:)))

9:47 am

Haz1558

Yes, but think of what they might do!

9:48 am

crosshair

or ill just play the physics game with them and tie a piece of buttered bread to thier back butter side up and toss them in the air:))

9:50 am

Haz1558

Have you ever been psycho-analysed for psychopathic tendencies?

9:51 am

crosshair

think of the fun though,a cat tends to land on its feet,buttered bread tends to land buttered side down,ergo the whole thig should stop about 2 feet from the ground and just hover:))

9:51 am

Haz1558

It's a theory. Let us hope profoundly that you leave it as an untested theory!

9:52 am

crosshair

no,but i think they are watching me with cameras:)

9:52 am

Judi

Interesting theory, Crossy. Be sure to let PETA know when you'll be conducting experiments.

9:52 am

crosshair

actually i like the cats as they stop the wife from trying to stuff dogs into the apartment

9:52 am

Haz1558

Never mind the cameras. We'll get Anniebrook on the job. Watch out for a flying nun taking notes.

9:53 am

crosshair

we have a nun in our midst??

9:54 am

crosshair

mm i better shelve that joke about the nun,the cowboy and a camel then..:/

9:54 am

Haz1558

Well, no, not really. It's a kind of running joke - Anniebrook takes on a different persona when necessary.

9:56 am

crosshair

lol im like sybl,i have 16 different personas and and invisible friend named bobo:) but im well adjusted:)

9:56 am

FMitch

Hello again
Has Annie taken to the air again, it has been an age!

9:57 am

Judi

Hi, FM (and others in FM).

9:57 am

Haz1558

Hello FMitch. No, she's doing housework.

9:57 am

Haz1558

I was just thinking - how DO you explain Annie as a nun and montreal with a fedora?

9:57 am

FMitch

Good heavens, housework!!
Hey Judi :)

9:57 am

FMitch

Probably best not to otherwise they may send for the men in white coats again.

9:58 am

BzznBea

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that thinks housework is absurd.

9:58 am

Haz1558

That's true.

9:59 am

Haz1558

No, LoriP is persuaded of that as well, Bzzn.

9:59 am

VolleymomDee

hmm surprised it didn't take sitz (sitz bath)... sure saved me after I had a baby :~)

9:59 am

Haz1558

I have yet to shake off my genetic conditioning.

9:59 am

FMitch

There are many that ban the mere mention of the word.

9:59 am

BzznBea

I think Sitz is a proper noun.

10:00 am

VolleymomDee

must be... maybe abbreviated version for name of inventor or something...

10:00 am

FMitch

Imagine the horror if the word 'housework' appeared in the grid one day!

10:01 am

BzznBea

I'd have to be asking for a clue. =)

10:02 am

pabtrek

have to go, getting migraine, can barely see, hope to be back later

10:02 am

VolleymomDee

hope it goes away quickly pab

10:02 am

Haz1558

Not nice, pabtrek - hope you feel better.

10:02 am

flosey

take care pab, those are terrible

10:02 am

FMitch

Feel better soon pab

10:02 am

BzznBea

Hope you feel better, pab.

10:03 am

Haz1558

I used to wonder why my father couldn't cope with a headache. Then I started to get them (in my 40s) and all became clear.

10:04 am

VolleymomDee

came to a halt with 39 left... going to my pal lickety lol. Isn't that the truth, Haz? Can be totally debilitating.

10:04 am

Haz1558

I know, and I probably only get a mild version, very occasionally. I'd hate to have them more often.

10:04 am

BzznBea

I had horrible migraines then I divorced my 1st husband and have not had one since. Honest truth.

10:05 am

VolleymomDee

lol

10:05 am

Haz1558

It's a pretty drastic cure!

10:05 am

BzznBea

Not if you knew my first husband. =)

10:06 am

VolleymomDee

new "reason for divorce box on papers" - spouse causes migraines

10:06 am

Haz1558

Ah!

10:07 am

VolleymomDee

brb getting coffee

10:07 am

BzznBea

Dee, are you still on the OB?

10:08 am

EvaNadine

yknow, if im gonna be forced to work from home (which i was, thanks to suffering all night from a migraine) the least that could happen is for me to have the cleaning tolls i need to do the cleaning i wanna do while im home!

10:08 am

Haz1558

Hello EvaN - what tools do you need?

10:09 am

EvaNadine

i need a toilet brush!
we use the ones with the flushable "brushes" and we are all out of refills...

10:09 am

Haz1558

I could send you some?

10:10 am

BzznBea

You can have all my cleaning tools, Eva. They are all "gently" used.

10:10 am

EvaNadine

i only seem to clean on the days i "work from home"
heh

10:10 am

Haz1558

Or could you cobble together something with kitchen towels and disinfectant?

10:10 am

BzznBea

Got rubber gloves?

10:10 am

EvaNadine

i have a sponge i could use, but i have no gloves...

10:11 am

Haz1558

At least you wouldn't have to sew. My kind of craft!

10:12 am

FMitch

LOL yea right Haz.

10:12 am

Haz1558

Could you cut the sponge to fit on the end of the handle thing?

10:12 am

EvaNadine

hrm. maybe....
i might try that in a few minutes -- right now, the cleaning products are re-stirring the headache...

10:13 am

EvaNadine

you might have solved my dilemma, haz :)

10:13 am

Haz1558

*smug*

10:13 am

Haz1558

I'll take advantage of being smug while I can now that Ata's back.

If it doesn't work, it's not my fault. You'll have cut the sponge wrongly or something. The idea is fine...in theory!

Haz1558

Nice entry to the PB there, Bzzn.

10:18 am

VolleymomDee

yes, little scary, but everyone here claims it is "no biggie, just get movies, cards, and pizza and stay inside"...

10:19 am

Pizza will always protectyou

Although, you will still get a lift if you remove the first letter from some....

10:21 am

VolleymomDee

10:25 am

if "plural" is ever in the grid, we're in big trouble! LOL

10:25 am

Haz1558

Because of thinking about wriggly things?

10:26 am

BzznBea

And the weatherforcasters are not sure where it will make landfall.

10:26 am

hurshy

no, it has hurt since yesterday

10:26 am

Haz1558

Were you fighting? or is it a sinus problem?

10:26 am

VolleymomDee

ty for the ge words. Maybe it will fizzle or not hit here. It has been so lovely, even with the clouds and the wind, and it isn't very crowded.

10:27 am

BzznBea

Could hit NC, could hit NY or could travel to Canada before making landfall/

10:27 am

harpjane

good grief, another hurricane?

10:27 am

hurshy

no... it's not that kind of hurt. i think there is somehow a zit growing inside it.

10:27 am

BzznBea

Kyle, I believe.

10:32 am

72 Temple Owl

:D

10:33 am

SeanS

no, she didn't... we wound up closing an office, actually, and hiring someone else

10:33 am

SeanS

that allowed me to take some much needed time off

10:33 am

Hi folks, just on for a bit. How is everyone?

10:34 am

SeanS

i think she took the test about 9 times, and never passed!

captain picard didn't pass his entrance exam for starfleet academy the first time... but 9 does seem a bit excessive

10:35 am

MonkeyGames

What's the V that one does not keep beer in look like?

10:35 am

SeanS

i agree, kathryn... too bad we had to close an office, but it allows me a day off during the week again

10:35 am

the president can put the kibosh on a bill, monkey

10:35 am

Not that I keep beer in anything so large...no room here for that.

10:35 am

Oh thanks, and whack me with a wrasse for that one!

10:35 am

periwinkle

I like the word kibosh, it is a silly sounding word

10:36 am

SeanS

agreed, hurshy... i mean, 80% of people fail it their first time. it isn't easy, but 9 times is a bit over the top

10:36 am

10:56 am

He STILL wants to be a podiatrist, by the way. It didn't change that to mention that they rarely get to use a stethoscope (current favorite toy) to listen to people's heart beeps.

10:59 am

pugmama763

she's getting screwed out of an inheritance

10:59 am

kje

so unless there is something really good in the pb, I refuse to go

10:59 am

MonkeyGames

I can put the Osso Bucco in there...

11:00 am

hurshy

i want things in the PB, i'm hungry

11:00 am

MonkeyGames

Oh no! I just assisted someone with that here. Can she fight it?

11:00 am

72 Temple Owl

i have been trying to make a word about arm holders for 15 minutes :?

11:00 am

hurshy

because... you're alive?

11:00 am

kje

nah - too heavy this early in the day

11:00 am

pugmama763

she has not 2 pennies to rub together for an attorney

11:00 am

MonkeyGames

How about if I put Walter'sleftover banana birthday cake in the PB?

11:01 am

EspritdJean

I've had that unpleasant experience Pug, I hope hers turns out better

11:01 am

MonkeyGames

Are there pro-bono places? Where is she? My brother's a lawyer, maybe he can reccommend something?

11:01 am

pugmama763

unfortunately I am in no better shape so cannot help her

11:02 am

EspritdJean

that's rarely done on a pro bono basis in the USA

11:02 am

pugmama763

Buffalo NY

11:02 am

EspritdJean

my case was in NJ and cost a fortune

11:02 am

MonkeyGames

My brother is in CA. I can ask him if he has any ideas...

11:02 am

joshuavorbis

but if it's about inheritance, a lawyer could do it on condition of getting a sum if they win

11:02 am

EspritdJean

also rarely done on a contingency basis

11:03 am

kje

OK, either need to start listing or take a break... so will be back later I guess

11:03 am

hurshy

why would they do personal injury on contingency but not inheritance?

11:03 am

MonkeyGames

Here also, Esprid, but there are often places most people don't know about, like where I work, that can help.

11:03 am

EspritdJean

because the laws are more complicated

11:04 am

EspritdJean

liability is a lot easier to prove than inheritance contest

11:04 am

pugmama763

her aunt & father were to be dual inheritors of the parents house (worth quite a fair sum.Her father comitted suicide so she & her 1/2 sister were to get his share

11:04 am

hurshy

huh, weird.

11:04 am

EspritdJean

Pug, who is the benefactor?

11:04 am

MonkeyGames

OK, well, I will contact my brother and ask if he has any ideas about the kinds of place/people to contact. No promises, but I'll see what he says.

11:04 am

pugmama763

now the aunt is declaring bankrupcy & listing the girls as unsecured creditors to write off

11:04 am

kje

b/c personal injury often goes to jury that they can sway and have a chance of getting a huge payoff... inheritance usually a mediator or a judge and seldom huge payouts

11:04 am

EspritdJean

who is trying to screw her, the aunt?

11:05 am

Ms. Ditzian

hi all

11:05 am

MonkeyGames

Oh MAN, that sucks!

11:05 am

MonkeyGames

Hello, Ditzi!

11:05 am

EspritdJean

the aunt's bankruptcy should not affect their share of an inheritance

11:05 am

hurshy

well, you know, you wouldn't want her to end up like in bleak house. that would be worse.

11:05 am

joshuavorbis

so the house is not paid for?

11:05 am

MonkeyGames

Haven't read that...

11:06 am

MonkeyGames

I know, I know...

11:06 am

Any clue for the first fr5?. Thanks.

11:06 am

Got it!!!!!

11:07 am

joshuavorbis

there's one before that, esprit - green stuff on the lawn but with a different first letter

11:07 am

hurshy

one of the plots of bleak house involves an inheritance case, dickens was satirizing how bad the courts were about stuff at that time in england. the case had gone on for so long, none of the lawyers really understood what the issues even were anymore.

11:07 am

pugmama763

any help for ST7 please?

11:07 am

hurshy

and they didn't care, as long as they kept getting paid.

11:08 am

E-mailme at kmcoo@chello.nl, and I will e-mailbackif tehre's anything to pass along. Everyone, have fun babbling! May be back later, but it's House night.

11:08 am

1:25 pm

MonkeyGames

Cool! Hey, I just read The Time Traveler's Wife; that was very good.

kje and une are driving me crazy.

1:25 pm

Uneaixoise

that makes it sound like some kind of bodice ripper and that's not at all what it is

1:25 pm

LadyNatts

I've read that! the time traveller's wife, that is.

1:25 pm

kje

no bodice ripping allowed in babble

1:29 pm

MonkeyGames

A Jedi you shall become...

MonkeyGames

The TV is freaking me out! They're interviewing this guy in Dutch, and subtitling him in very slightly different Dutch. Why are they doing that? My brain's getting out of synch.

2:20 pm

MonkeyGames

It's not like he's Fresian or Flemish or something!

2:20 pm

LadyNatts

sounds frightening, monkey

2:21 pm

LadyNatts

I'd say, turn off the TV

4:48 pm

KnightTime

yes, it's a buyers market, no question

4:48 pm

KnightTime

if I had the cash and the nerve, I would look for bargains

4:48 pm

elder

and property developers aahh.

4:49 pm

Bzzn is there not a cheap agency that could take care of your home while you rent.

4:51 pm

BzznBea

I understand the buyers market, but when you are looking at a 100+ year old house that appraises at 160K, you agree to buy it for 127K, then want another 10K of work...

4:51 pm

BzznBea

No one we would trust, elder.

I have been trying to get this guy to ask me out since July. he finally did last week, but he is still sort of a jerk.

6:46 pm

MetFan

Well, it's just my opinion, and they're like a**holes, but people have more important things to fret over than whether their icon matches today's theme....

6:46 pm

pugmama763

why jerk? for being so bashfull?

6:46 pm

MetFan

They all are, Red - except when they're gay, then only half are jerks.

6:46 pm

redturtlehead

No, he wasn't bashful, he just sort of didnt return phone calls, etc etc...He has some issues, but unfortunately I still like it.

6:47 pm

pugmama763

to me that would spell NOT VERY INTERESTED ,I'd say screw that!

8:17 pm

stidmama

I don't think the wa 7 is a wurd either...

8:17 pm

Scrabbler

I got the kids ready for bed, read stories, and said good night to them---the baby was easy, the older 2 are rascals and tried to negotiate.

8:17 pm

8:18 pm

Scrabbler

An MRI done Saturday showed no changes--same tiny mass. She is just very weak in her muscles, and the cause is not clear--probably one of hr meds. The kids are doing great and kept me laughing.

8:19 pm

pam

UGH........ That stinks, scrabs

8:19 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, I set limits and used the "If ____, then___." warning.

8:19 pm

stidmama

well, at least there is no new growth... but still. she has enough iron and bloodwork is good I suppose. meds can stink. big time.

8:20 pm

Scrabbler

And she tipped over off the toilet Saturday when her husband turned to grab a towel--she smashed her face--broken nasal bones, and bruised cheek and upper lip.

well, supper is ready... back later. (((scrabbler))) I am sending mary extra strength... and her husband extra love.

8:23 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, it hurts so much to see her in this weakened state and to be suffering for so long. And her husband is bearing such an enormous burden without his life partner there to support HIM and the kids.

8:24 pm

Scrabbler

TY so much, Stid.

Hello mongrels of the world! Just got my cake out of the oven and am waiting for final load of washing to finish. How goes the grid for you all?

9:05 pm

tygerbryght

I'm having a fit of outrage. the first st5 6 combo is completely illegal. st5's only meaning is a town in germany; and st6 being a plural of it, when it's the only one ... :( :(

9:05 pm

saanichcat

Hey Lil. have you looked up tour tartan? THere is a shop in Victoria which specializes in them.

Which bits are English, and which French, Monkey? The naming of 'the bits' for all of use could be quite amusing.

9:06 pm

lil*monkey

i have seen it saani, can't remember what the MacLaury one looks like, but the Johnston one is very untraditional.... blues and greens (pale) with a fine white line

9:07 pm

You could get a cut of ham from the same place but that would have been cut before the salting. Ther is almost no difference in taste, especially if you soak the joint in water before cooking it (to remove all the salt) like wot I do!

9:29 pm

lil*monkey

9:59 pm

lil*monkey

10:00 pm

tygerbryght

it's not just wack. It's illegal

10:00 pm

it's the name of a town in Germany

10:00 pm

tygerbryght

I checked

10:00 pm

tygerbryght

there is NO other meaning

10:01 pm

tygerbryght

nearly all of the other STs are normal, real words

10:01 pm

lil*monkey

need help with st7

10:01 pm

lil*monkey

is it normal?

10:02 pm

tygerbryght

there is a Greek plural, but it's not immediately below the singular - the roman plural comes first :P

10:02 pm

tygerbryght

it's a normal word, in terms of you've seen it in grids before :D

10:02 pm

lil*monkey

OK got it!

10:02 pm

tygerbryght

vg :)

10:03 pm

10:04 pm

tygerbryght

sounds like you're doing pretty well!

10:04 pm

tygerbryght

AFAIK, saani, that's all

10:05 pm

tygerbryght

it's just the name of a German town, and has no business in a Scrabble word list

10:05 pm

tygerbryght

the ST word we were talking about, that is

10:06 pm

lil*monkey

WACK is an ebonics term for wrong, unbelievable, crazy

10:08 pm

saanichcat

10:08 pm
